And tonight we're gonna 9 00:00:38.640 --> 00:00:43.880 talk about a few things we've We're gonna talk about our defense. It's the 10 00:00:43.920 --> 00:00:49.439 main topic for tonight. So we're gonna we're gonna start off basically just listen 11 00:00:49.520 --> 00:00:53.679 off. Who we think are gonna be starters? You want to start with 12 00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:57.520 that, Yeah, Who I think gonna be stars? Well, of course, 13 00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:00.520 I mean, first of all, let me say defense was probably our 14 00:01:00.880 --> 00:01:04.640 strongest part of the team last year. I mean, our defense is the 15 00:01:04.760 --> 00:01:08.799 rock of the Titans, always have been. So I mean, hey, 16 00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:12.239 we just gotta keep building on what we got, and of course our star 17 00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:18.040 player on defense, it's Big Jeff Man. We finally got Big Jeff locked 18 00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:21.400 up. He got a big bag now so that he can go out there 19 00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:25.599 and play. Even though last year they kind of say he had a down 20 00:01:25.719 --> 00:01:27.760 year, but come on, man, the man play Andrew he was, 21 00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.280 he was. He gave us a great he gave us a great effort last 22 00:01:32.359 --> 00:01:34.120 year, even though you know, we were struggling in some places on the 23 00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:38.879 field. Everything wasn't together. But hey, Jeff, big Jeff, We're 24 00:01:38.879 --> 00:01:42.680 gonna start a big Jeff defensive line. I'm loving our front seven man, 25 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:47.000 our front seven. It is probably gonna be a again. It's probably gonna 26 00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:49.719 be one of the strengths of the team. We got Big Jeff at the 27 00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:53.760 defensive tackle. I mean, come on, you know we can't go wrong 28 00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.799 with the we got. We bring it back tierre Tart. You know, 29 00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:01.400 we sat resigned him today. So now he got a bag, so now 30 00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:05.280 he can go out there and you know play. I mean, everybody played 31 00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:07.519 better when they got a little money in their pocket, you know what I'm 32 00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:10.439 saying. So when when the bag is there, you're more comfortable. You 33 00:02:10.520 --> 00:02:14.840 know, you can buy your house at Nashville, and uh yeah, I 34 00:02:14.879 --> 00:02:16.879 mean you come, come get some sacks. And also, you know, 35 00:02:17.039 --> 00:02:20.240 last one, not at least, we got de Nico Autry, Man, 36 00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:23.680 de Nico Ultry. Hey, he is the X factor on the tightest defensive 37 00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:29.000 line. Man, that guy is clutch. I mean him and Big jumps 38 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:32.199 together. You know, that's two Mississippi State players. They jailed so good 39 00:02:32.319 --> 00:02:37.840 together, like that's just gonna be a good dynamic team. And I said 40 00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:39.240 last one, not at least, But how can I get forget about the 41 00:02:39.319 --> 00:02:43.719 man who got the real bag? Harold Landry? You know what I mean, 42 00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:46.599 a lot of people forgot about Harold Landry, you know because he was 43 00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:50.919 out last year towards ACL before the season started. But come on, let's 44 00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:53.960 not forget about what he did the year the year before last with those twelve 45 00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:58.360 sacks. Now, Man, that guy he's a monster. Man, he's 46 00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:01.479 so fast coming off at ball. And if I mean, you know, 47 00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:07.319 they try to say, you know, he he might not, he might 48 00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:09.240 not be what he used to be off the ACL, but don't count. 49 00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:13.960 Don't count Harold and out man. So yeah, also on that front, 50 00:03:14.000 --> 00:03:17.120 seven we gottauh, We got so we're gonna move to the like the linebackers. 51 00:03:17.560 --> 00:03:22.520 Man, we gotta what about the sign the signy that we got from 52 00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:27.919 San Francisco Bear Whitman. As I say this dude name a Zis, I'll 53 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:30.479 shier. A lot of people are liking that guy. They say he all 54 00:03:30.560 --> 00:03:36.680 around the ball. He's pretty fast for a linebacker. He got pretty good 55 00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:39.639 speed. And we're gonna need him to replace I lost when we lost David 56 00:03:39.719 --> 00:03:44.800 Long Junior. That was kind of a big loss. So if he can 57 00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:47.639 give us you know what David Long gave us, plus a little bit more, 58 00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:51.879 a little bit speed, be in the backfield, a little bit more, 59 00:03:51.960 --> 00:03:53.680 you know, no more miss tackles. We're gonna be all right. 60 00:03:54.120 --> 00:03:59.919 Another linebacker were ranging well was not bringing back, but another one I beg 61 00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:06.840 signings Art and key Man. That's that's probably the defensive player I'm most excited 62 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:13.520 about. Like that dude is explosive man, like seen we seen what he 63 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:17.399 did to us against when we played against Jacksonville last year. That dude is 64 00:04:17.399 --> 00:04:20.720 a playmaker. What do you think about Art and key Max, Well, 65 00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:25.560 I just I just love not only do I love his play um, you 66 00:04:25.639 --> 00:04:29.279 know, and and and the what I've seen in Ota so far, but 67 00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.560 his moxie, the way he carries himself, his attitude, you know, 68 00:04:33.040 --> 00:04:36.480 just I love that kind of player, that dude that just loves to show 69 00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:42.360 up play football. Yeah, and then I mean, we're bringing back a 70 00:04:42.480 --> 00:04:46.920 player who, you know, I can't say he's a spectacular player, but 71 00:04:46.079 --> 00:04:49.439 he's solid and I just want to see him keep getting better and better. 72 00:04:50.079 --> 00:04:54.519 Monnie Rice, you know, he's you know, right now, he's projected 73 00:04:54.560 --> 00:04:59.000 to be our starting inside linebacker. I mean, as far as tackling Montie 74 00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:01.000 Rice was pretty college. You know, he doesn't give up a lot of 75 00:05:01.079 --> 00:05:04.439 big plays. I don't really want to see him covering a lot of these 76 00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:09.240 tight ends that we struggle with. But I do want to see him inside 77 00:05:09.319 --> 00:05:14.160 those gaps, filling those gaps, tackling those running backs and helping these guys, 78 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.879 you know, on defense, so that that's like the defensive line. 79 00:05:17.240 --> 00:05:21.600 Uh I miss h And don't forget Rashan Weaver. He's a nice he's a 80 00:05:21.720 --> 00:05:26.920 nice depth, depth guy that we can use on both ends. We can 81 00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:30.000 plug them in somewhere because he had a he started off last year having the 82 00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:33.560 decencies and it kind of slowed down at the end. But he's a nice 83 00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:38.480 plug and play guy on that defensive line that can make big plays. And 84 00:05:38.639 --> 00:05:43.120 uh yeah that our front of seven is definitely my favorite part. Don't be 85 00:05:43.279 --> 00:05:46.439 my favorite part of the defense. What you got for us, Matt Oh 86 00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.800 absolutely absolutely, And I have to give a shout out to money Rice because 87 00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:54.600 you know, I'm a Georgia fan, so I really want Money Rights to 88 00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:59.839 do well. But we'll see. Yeah, as far as they as far 89 00:05:59.839 --> 00:06:05.360 as the backfield goes, the cornerbacks, cornerbacks gonna be. I think the 90 00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:12.639 outside is gonna be Christian Fulton and Sean Murphy Bunting. Okay, I think 91 00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:16.360 he's gonna win the starting spot on the other side over Shorter. I mean, 92 00:06:16.560 --> 00:06:21.839 I don't know. Look, I'm not saying the Christian Fulton is like 93 00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:27.199 a Christian Fulton slash Roger McCreary. Yeah, that's what I was gonna say, 94 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:31.040 but because personally, I think I kind of like Roger McCreary just a 95 00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:35.519 little bit better than Christian Fulton. But I mean I've only seen one year 96 00:06:35.680 --> 00:06:39.839 Roger McCurry, and I mean, so we're gonna see what he can give 97 00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:43.079 us. He gotta be on someplace. I thought the guy was solid overall. 98 00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:49.920 Just don't throw no grig maybe or no none of these third fourth strings 99 00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:54.240 cornerbacks out there, but go ahead. Yeah, yeah, no I don't. 100 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.279 I don't want to see none of that neither. But yeah, that's 101 00:06:56.319 --> 00:06:59.920 who I've gotten, you know, he's obviously I've got if I had fault 102 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:03.120 and as a starter, I've got mccordy as my slot or vice versa, 103 00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:10.319 either way that works out. Obviously the safeties are locked down, Hooker and 104 00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:15.319 Byed they're not going anywhere. Um, and then I'm going to kind of 105 00:07:15.399 --> 00:07:17.879 hopefully, let's say hopefully, now Byron better get his ass to practice a 106 00:07:17.959 --> 00:07:24.759 mini count soon, so we'll say as mini count, buddy, he'll be 107 00:07:24.879 --> 00:07:27.240 there. I got faith in him. I got faith to my boy, 108 00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:30.120 man. I don't. I don't worry about Kevin Byrd. He takes care 109 00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:32.680 of business, and he's a hometown man. He's from Mayor murfas borrow Man. 110 00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.240 And besides, I love saying mayon murphras borrow. It just rolls right 111 00:07:36.279 --> 00:07:39.680 off the tongue. Man. If they take him away from me, I'm 112 00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.920 gonna be so mad because I just love talking about the maryon murfras yeah, 113 00:07:43.000 --> 00:07:45.920 yeah, I love him. Man. I gotta sign Keivin by a Jersey 114 00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:48.839 So I'll be sick if that guy wasn't to be a Titan, but he'll 115 00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:54.040 be here. We ain't got nothing to worry about. Yeah, all right, 116 00:07:54.199 --> 00:07:57.759 yeah, yeah, Well I've talked about that later. Uh. I 117 00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:01.680 mean, I am going to talk quickly about the special teams kind of goes 118 00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:07.120 with the defense, but not really um main and returner. Um they have 119 00:08:07.279 --> 00:08:13.480 him as Kyle Phillips. I don't know if I really trust Kyle Phillips should 120 00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:16.879 be returning my balls. I mean, I'm just gonna be honest with you. 121 00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:20.639 You know, now, if he if he looks really solid in preseason, 122 00:08:20.759 --> 00:08:22.720 all right, maybe you know, you give him a shot and let 123 00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:26.639 him go. But if he don't, Man, I really feel like Taj 124 00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:31.200 Sharp is gonna be our probably gonna be returner. He's definitely the kick returner. 125 00:08:31.799 --> 00:08:35.840 He might be the punt returner too, because he is just explosive everywhere 126 00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.879 on the field and I feel like they're gonna give him a lot of opportunities 127 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.919 to have the ball, and I feel like this that's just the way it 128 00:08:45.120 --> 00:08:50.240 is. So at this point, man, we do for somebody explosive on 129 00:08:50.360 --> 00:08:54.240 the kicker in the punt return game. And like for years, the Tide 130 00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:58.559 have been lacking somebody with that explosiveness. Now, you know, if I 131 00:08:58.679 --> 00:09:01.320 thought we had a couple of years ago when we plugged the Dory Jackson in 132 00:09:01.399 --> 00:09:05.159 there, but he just didn't pan out, I mean then and then he 133 00:09:05.399 --> 00:09:09.600 became a risk for injury, so they quit using him as much. But 134 00:09:09.759 --> 00:09:16.679 man, please let Taija Spears evolved into that playmaking on plan and keep returnment. 135 00:09:16.759 --> 00:09:18.679 We need it. Yeah, I agree, but I'm gonna address that 136 00:09:18.799 --> 00:09:24.279 real quick. Uh, Michael, don't worry about that so much. The 137 00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:30.279 turnover at linebacker is because Mike Vrabel was a linebacker and he coaches amazing linebackers. 138 00:09:31.080 --> 00:09:33.159 That's why I'm kind of upset with my boy money Rice, because if 139 00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:41.639 you can't earn a starting spot or develop into a great linebacker under Mike Vrabel, 140 00:09:41.679 --> 00:09:46.799 then you have a serious, serious problem. Yeah. I agree. 141 00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:50.720 So safety is not the same thing, so we don't I don't think we 142 00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:56.159 have to worry about him interfering with safety as much as he does as he 143 00:09:56.279 --> 00:10:01.200 does with with that. Thank you, I love you, dear um uh 144 00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.720 so um. As far as the puncher goes. Everybody knows we got the 145 00:10:07.799 --> 00:10:11.639 best punter in the NFL. Maybe not the best, but he's got the 146 00:10:11.679 --> 00:10:15.159 biggest leg. If the guy can start aiming him punts, he's gonna be 147 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:18.039 the best punter. We got him locked down for years to come. I 148 00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:26.440 hope that's right. Stone House, stone House, mad dude got leave here. 149 00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:31.279 And the last thing is a kicker. I want to talk about kicker. 150 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:35.080 Uh. The kicker is a story actually I did on fan battlesports dot 151 00:10:35.080 --> 00:10:37.840 com. If y'all ain't, if y'all ain't went there, go check them 152 00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:41.159 out. They got some great stories on every team in the AFC South. 153 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:46.679 You can look up your enemy or your friends and anyway. Uh kicker situation. 154 00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:52.559 Basically, trey Wolf has not missed a kick in OTAs yet. Everybody 155 00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:58.519 is penciled in Caleb Shudick as the starter automatically on the depth charts that everybody's 156 00:10:58.559 --> 00:11:03.879 put out. But I leave that Trey Wolf has already kind of wedged his 157 00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:07.600 way in there simply because Wednesday we got a report that we did not see 158 00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:11.039 Ryan should k at all. He did not get an attempt. There was 159 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:13.840 no word on injury or anything. Like that, and then I looked it 160 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.039 up and he wasn't. He wasn't there on Friday either, So they don't 161 00:11:18.360 --> 00:11:24.000 done shoot up gass for the curve. I mean it sounds it sounds like 162 00:11:24.200 --> 00:11:28.399 it, So I think I think Trey Wolf might have already wedged his way 163 00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:31.440 in there, and I hope not. I hope they keep the competition going 164 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:35.480 because the more competition the better. But you know, hey, whatever, 165 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:41.600 I take either one of them over fat Randy. So as long as we 166 00:11:41.679 --> 00:11:46.320 got fat Randy about it, I take even one of those young guys kicking 167 00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:52.279 the ball man. So uh, you know, I don't know if anybody 168 00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:56.679 watches my my little reels that I did before I started this podcast with my 169 00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:01.399 boy here. Um, I'm a huge fan of Colton Dale. I really 170 00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:07.080 believe that the kid is going to be something explosive, and honestly, I 171 00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:11.480 see him at the beginning of the season. I don't see him getting a 172 00:12:11.519 --> 00:12:13.759 lot because he's a rookie and stuff, But I see him towards the end 173 00:12:13.799 --> 00:12:16.799 of the season. I think they might even start lining him up opposite of 174 00:12:16.879 --> 00:12:22.759 Treylon Burke's at wide receiver number two spots. He's one of those guys that 175 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:26.720 I mean, he had, he had such a good, productive college career 176 00:12:28.200 --> 00:12:31.600 that the transition to the pro should be kind of easy. Like and you 177 00:12:31.679 --> 00:12:35.679 know, we don't run, we don't run a real hard offense to ruin. 178 00:12:35.879 --> 00:12:39.320 You know, basically, it's play action. You know, we probably 179 00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:43.559 got the less the probably the smallest route tree in the NFL, you know 180 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.480 what I'm saying. So, hey, if Colon dal can go out there 181 00:12:46.519 --> 00:12:50.919 and just get a little separation, he's a pass catcher, like you said 182 00:12:50.039 --> 00:12:54.399 last week on last show, and don't forget what he don't forget what he 183 00:12:54.480 --> 00:13:00.120 did the UT and they had pro style corners of pro style defense. If 184 00:13:00.200 --> 00:13:03.360 Coldendal can just give us a little bit of separation off that line from the 185 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:09.320 corners and give Tannehill the smallest window and catch the ball, and he's gonna 186 00:13:09.360 --> 00:13:13.080 he's gonna have a good career here as a Titan, whether it's Tannehill throwing 187 00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:18.120 the ball or Will Levis or Malik Willis or whoever it's gonna be. Yeah, 188 00:13:18.360 --> 00:13:22.440 Yeah, that's a that's a good point. Um, so it's speaking 189 00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.480 of Will Levis um or Well, now let's not do that. I'm sorry, 190 00:13:26.960 --> 00:13:30.919 let's let's go into our legends segment. Do you want to go first 191 00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:33.240 this time? Or do you want to let me in the legend, the 192 00:13:33.559 --> 00:13:37.679 legend, the legend? I go first this time. I think you went 193 00:13:37.759 --> 00:13:41.440 first last week? Right? Yeah? Yeah, So last week I had 194 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.120 a defensive player. This week I had to transition to offense. We gotta 195 00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:52.360 We got a handful of Titans legends on offense, but all we went with 196 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:58.360 the one, the only tight end, Frank White chick baller. When I 197 00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:03.399 say ball, Frank Whicheck was a bowler man. He was so reliable. 198 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:09.399 Like when Steve mcnow needed to get a first down and the wide receivers wasn't 199 00:14:09.480 --> 00:14:13.039 open, it seemed like Frank Wycheck always got open. He wasn't the fastest 200 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:18.519 guy, he wasn't the biggest guy, but it was something about his athleticism, 201 00:14:18.600 --> 00:14:22.480 how it was set up, he always got open. So his career 202 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:26.440 with the Titans, this isn't his full career, This is only his stats 203 00:14:26.679 --> 00:14:31.799 with the Titans. He had four hundred and eighty two receptions. He was 204 00:14:31.840 --> 00:14:35.759 a three time pro bowler. In two thousand, he was an All Pro. 205 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:39.879 So he played with the Titans from nineteen ninety five to two thousand and 206 00:14:39.919 --> 00:14:43.519 three. So as I said, he got four hundred and eighty two receptions 207 00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:48.320 four thousand, nine hundred and fifty eight yards in twenty seven touchdowns. And 208 00:14:50.159 --> 00:14:54.000 when it comes to receptions, he caught the ball sixty eight point four percent 209 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:58.080 of the time. He didn't drop the ball. When I say reliable, 210 00:14:58.480 --> 00:15:03.679 Frank Witcheck was liable. Man number eighty nine always seem to get open. 211 00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.519 And don't forget he was the one who made the past on the Music City 212 00:15:07.600 --> 00:15:11.080 Miracle. He was the first track. He was the first one who the 213 00:15:11.159 --> 00:15:15.519 ball went to, and he made the past to Kevin Dyson to make the 214 00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:20.120 play. Shout out to Frank Watchi. He was calling Titan games with Mike 215 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:22.720 Keith for a while, but I think he had to take a step away 216 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.440 from that. But yeah, man ay, as a Titans fan, you've 217 00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:33.000 got to know your legends man, and Frank Watchick was definitely the if He's 218 00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:37.559 definitely one of, if not the best tight end in Titans history. Man. 219 00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:41.360 Shout out to Frank Watchick. Yeah, yeah, honestly, yeah, 220 00:15:41.519 --> 00:15:46.480 that's one of my favorite players. I think he is probably the number one 221 00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:52.840 tight end in Titans history. Um, I mean Delaney Walker's a close second. 222 00:15:54.279 --> 00:15:56.279 Yeah, I was gonna say, yeah, the type of player he 223 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.120 was, I liked him better because of his you know, I like the 224 00:16:00.159 --> 00:16:03.840 attitude and I like the kind of the cocking his. Plus I actually met 225 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:07.200 Delaney Walker and got his autograph, and he was actually a really cool guy. 226 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:10.759 Like I was amazed at how down to earth he was. Yeah, 227 00:16:10.840 --> 00:16:14.840 he seemed like a real pretty cool guy. So and they everybody loved him 228 00:16:14.840 --> 00:16:17.320 as a teammate. So yeah, I can see, you know what, 229 00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:19.639 I can even see why some people say he was the best tight end. 230 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:25.720 He know, they picked him over Frank Waichick because I'm not sure of Delaney 231 00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:30.840 Walker stats, but he might be real close to Frank Waichick and he might 232 00:16:30.919 --> 00:16:33.480 even have more touchdowns. I'm not sure, but I know it's close though. 233 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:37.200 Yeah. Yeah, he's got really really close stats to Frank. I 234 00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:41.639 don't think he got the yardage like he said, but I do think he 235 00:16:41.879 --> 00:16:45.600 might have either tied him or beat him out on the touchdowns just because Delaney 236 00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:48.879 Walker is like a touchdown machine. But anyway, Frank Waicheck is what you 237 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:55.120 were talking about. Frank Waichick is a Titans legend. Frank Waicheck was the 238 00:16:55.240 --> 00:17:00.360 man. Yeah he was. He was the man. Frank watchicka who you 239 00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:03.599 got for us on defense? Max? All right? Man? Uh for 240 00:17:03.759 --> 00:17:10.640 me, it was easy. Uh my wife's favorite player. Um Keith Bullock 241 00:17:11.720 --> 00:17:18.880 Okay, mister Monday Night, yes, sir man all right. And the 242 00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:22.119 reason they called him that is because he was famous for getting interceptions on Monday 243 00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:26.079 Night football. And one of the last seasons he was with US, he 244 00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:30.200 was on a Monday Night game and they were the announcers were even calling him 245 00:17:30.200 --> 00:17:33.240 mister Monday Night because it was so well known at that point. And he 246 00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.680 had three interceptions in that game. Folks. It was beautiful. It was 247 00:17:37.720 --> 00:17:41.319 almost like mister Monday Night was on fire man. That was again that was 248 00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.200 against the Saints, right, I do believe it was? Yeah, good 249 00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.119 memory. Wow, Yeah, that was a good game, man.

Our next segment is gonna be a new segment that we're 300 00:22:00.279 --> 00:22:06.279 trying out. It's gonna be the fan question segment. So our fan question 301 00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:11.119 of the week. Um actually a good question too. I mean it's a 302 00:22:11.240 --> 00:22:17.440 questions a lot of people want to know. Yeah, it came from a 303 00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:21.559 gentleman. I'm trying right now as fast as i can to get his name 304 00:22:21.680 --> 00:22:25.559 up because I didn't have it ready. But I'll go ahead and say the 305 00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:27.079 question, and I'll go ahead and let you answer while I find it. 306 00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:34.599 Uh. It basically is Levin's gonna start this season at any point? Ull? 307 00:22:34.599 --> 00:22:38.039 Okay, so we can't. So the question came from Being Sawyer. 308 00:22:38.759 --> 00:22:42.559 Shout out to Being Sawyer for having the question. Thank you. The fan 309 00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:47.680 question of the week. His question was, I'm curious, what do you 310 00:22:47.799 --> 00:22:51.480 think about how long they'll keep Levi this out if the season doesn't seem to 311 00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:56.039 be going well in borderline playoffs? Sure? Sure? Is it a sure 312 00:22:56.119 --> 00:22:59.119 bet to sit out the whole year? Or do you think at some point 313 00:22:59.200 --> 00:23:02.359 they'll wrote a die us to get into the playoffs. That's a good question. 314 00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:07.200 That's a good question being and right now. Yeah, come on, 315 00:23:07.359 --> 00:23:11.759 many, that's that's a good question being in right now. I mean, 316 00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.039 everybody want to know that question, because I mean, truthfully, our quarterback 317 00:23:15.119 --> 00:23:18.640 position is not said in stone. We don't know if the Titans are gonna 318 00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:22.880 roll with Ryan Tannehill, or we don't know if Tannehill might get chipped off 319 00:23:22.920 --> 00:23:26.119 at any moment for a couple of players, and we might just roll with 320 00:23:26.240 --> 00:23:30.640 Will Levis. But personally, I said this on the first show. Personally, 321 00:23:32.000 --> 00:23:34.960 I think we should ride it out with Ryan Tannehill. We're paying that 322 00:23:36.079 --> 00:23:40.480 man the arm and the leg. Nobody's gonna take over that contract from Tannehill. 323 00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:44.000 Nobody's gonna pay him. Well, we're paying him. Let's ride it 324 00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:47.559 out with Ryan. He was he was injury last year and we didn't provide 325 00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:52.240 him the offensive line to make plays. So let's you know, we built 326 00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:56.000 the offensive line back up. Let's let's rock it out with Ryan Tannehill. 327 00:23:56.319 --> 00:23:59.519 But you said Will what we're gonna do about Will Levis? I feel like, 328 00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:04.039 honestly my opinion, I don't think Will Lepis will see the field that 329 00:24:04.200 --> 00:24:08.680 much this year. I feel like, if, and that's if Tannehill stays 330 00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:12.200 healthy. I'm saying big if, because I mean we know he had to 331 00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:15.000 ankle injury. He says he's feeling enough better, he's one hundred percent. 332 00:24:15.119 --> 00:24:21.240 But I don't think if if Tanehill's playing good like he has the whole time, 333 00:24:21.319 --> 00:24:22.799 he's been here. I mean, because you know, you say, 334 00:24:23.000 --> 00:24:27.160 say what you want to say about Tannehill regular season to dude balls out. 335 00:24:27.519 --> 00:24:33.000 I mean, he doesn't make a lot of mistakes. He wins games. 336 00:24:33.039 --> 00:24:37.279 He puts us into position the best position to win games. Last year, 337 00:24:37.359 --> 00:24:40.920 you had a lot of people calling for Malik Willis, calling for you know, 338 00:24:41.119 --> 00:24:45.000 Ryan to be bench to trade. That would have been the absolutely wrong 339 00:24:45.200 --> 00:24:49.720 decision because Tannehill definitely gave us the best chance to win every game. And 340 00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:52.920 you know, of course, you know you're gonna have games where he throws 341 00:24:52.960 --> 00:24:56.799 in the segens, he's gonna fumble. I mean, hey, we didn't 342 00:24:56.799 --> 00:25:00.079 have offensive line at all last year. We have Dennis Ainley out there and 343 00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:06.440 protecting this blindside, and we had we were rotating guys in. Man, 344 00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:14.000 listen, give Tannehill a offensive line, a strong offensive line, dependable offensive 345 00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:18.039 line. Let him sit back there and make plays. As long as tannehills 346 00:25:18.119 --> 00:25:22.519 back there and making plays getting the ball to the receiver, what's doing what 347 00:25:22.559 --> 00:25:25.599 he's supposed to do. We won't. I don't think we'll see will Levis 348 00:25:25.680 --> 00:25:30.440 decision. And that's and that's the longest Tannehill's you know, not injured. 349 00:25:30.920 --> 00:25:33.640 I don't even think if Tenni Hill starts stinking it up, I still don't 350 00:25:33.680 --> 00:25:37.079 think they're gonna throw Will Levis in. That's just my opinion. I feel 351 00:25:37.079 --> 00:25:40.640 like we're gonna ride this thing out with Tanny. I mean, this is 352 00:25:40.960 --> 00:25:44.119 you know, it's probably his last year. So you know, we're gonna 353 00:25:44.200 --> 00:25:47.279 ride it out with Tannehill. We're gonna get that money we paid. We're 354 00:25:47.279 --> 00:25:49.480 gonna get that up out of his ass. We're gonna get We're gonna we're 355 00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:52.359 gonna get that money out your ass, Tanny. So we're gonna put you 356 00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:55.720 out there. We're gonna, you know, hopefully, you know, you 357 00:25:55.839 --> 00:25:59.119 and Trading Burke's you know them built the report. You and the other receivers 358 00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:02.920 and built the report, and y'all gonna bring, you know, a nice 359 00:26:03.039 --> 00:26:07.119 offense. We got you a couple of decent weapons. Tannehill is gonna be 360 00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:11.440 the man being. To answer your question, I don't think Will Levice sees 361 00:26:11.480 --> 00:26:15.839 the field at all, if any even if at all this season. I 362 00:26:15.880 --> 00:26:21.279 don't think he's gonna touch the field besides preseason. That's that's barn. Tannehills, 363 00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:23.960 you know, doesn't get into injured. Yeah, I just think Will 364 00:26:25.039 --> 00:26:29.920 Levis is gonna sit back, learn from Tanny, and be prepared to see 365 00:26:30.000 --> 00:26:33.400 Will Levice the year after this year. What about you think about that question? 366 00:26:33.519 --> 00:26:37.720 Man? Yeah, no, I thank you pretty much nailed it. 367 00:26:37.920 --> 00:26:42.319 I mean, unless unless we trade Tannehill, or Tannehill gets injured, or 368 00:26:44.680 --> 00:26:49.440 we just absolutely stink this year. Uh. I'm just saying, you know, 369 00:26:49.559 --> 00:26:55.039 it's a possibility. Yeah, I really feel, you know, and 370 00:26:55.160 --> 00:26:59.039 I think I want to cover that in our next show, but I don't 371 00:26:59.039 --> 00:27:03.319 want to leak out to my But basically, I think we have an opportunity 372 00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:07.559 to get to eleven twelve wins. And I know a lot of people say 373 00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:10.720 I'm a homer about that, but I can explain it all out perfectly for 374 00:27:10.920 --> 00:27:12.799 you, and if you tune in next week you'll find out why. But 375 00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:21.119 um, the the thing is is if it doesn't work out for us like 376 00:27:21.240 --> 00:27:25.079 I think it will, then we're gonna just bomb. I don't think we're 377 00:27:25.079 --> 00:27:30.720 gonna be mid at all. I think we're either gonna be ten eleven wins 378 00:27:30.039 --> 00:27:33.480 or five four wins. We don't want to be eight or nine wins. 379 00:27:34.039 --> 00:27:37.799 Eight or nine wins. You're saying we're gonna be up here. We're gonna 380 00:27:37.799 --> 00:27:42.200 stink. We're not of that out of the middle of the road stuff, 381 00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:47.359 man, because honestly, you don't want that. That's that's purgatory for the 382 00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:49.440 NFL because that's where you pick. You don't get crapp in the draft. 383 00:27:49.519 --> 00:27:52.920 I mean, it's it's just a bad place to be, you know what. 384 00:27:52.559 --> 00:27:56.839 You absolutely right, because it really hurts when you in the middle of 385 00:27:56.920 --> 00:28:00.480 the road. But her it does. Her words, we gotta go through 386 00:28:02.039 --> 00:28:04.559 through a whole season the only winning one of two games, Like you gotta 387 00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:07.960 kind of ask yourself what you're willing to put up with. Are you willing 388 00:28:08.000 --> 00:28:11.640 to suffer a season to get a good draft pick, or are you willing, 389 00:28:11.720 --> 00:28:15.000 you know, to be okay and just keep being okay? You know 390 00:28:15.039 --> 00:28:18.599 what I'm saying. And I kind of think that's where the Titans being for 391 00:28:18.079 --> 00:28:22.720 a long time. We're just being okay you ever since John Robinson came. 392 00:28:22.039 --> 00:28:26.440 He didn't take us to the next level. But we've just been good enough. 393 00:28:26.079 --> 00:28:30.359 So I mean, to get those players, that's gonna put us over 394 00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:32.880 the hump. We're gonna have to suck a couple of years. I mean, 395 00:28:32.960 --> 00:28:34.519 that's just what it is. We're gonna have to suck, and we're 396 00:28:34.519 --> 00:28:37.480 gonna have to you know, draft higher. I don't want to suck. 397 00:28:37.680 --> 00:28:42.720 I hate losing, man, I hate losing. So I can't say I 398 00:28:42.839 --> 00:28:48.839 want us to suck, but I do want us to eventually get those franchise 399 00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:53.119 changing players, those drug burrows, those um who else is it? Uh 400 00:28:53.680 --> 00:28:56.440 No, Lamar Jackson's, you know, a couple of other players that you 401 00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:02.279 know, instantly turn your franchise into a winner. So I don't want us 402 00:29:02.319 --> 00:29:07.799 to be a bottom feeder because that's where the Jacks belong. And I don't 403 00:29:07.839 --> 00:29:11.359 want to be down there with the Jacks. But like you said, Hey, 404 00:29:11.839 --> 00:29:15.400 like you said, he's gonna be it's either gonna be Boom or bus 405 00:29:15.559 --> 00:29:18.039 And I kind of see that, man well, And I like Newsome point 406 00:29:18.160 --> 00:29:21.400 here too. You know, that was another point I was gonna make his 407 00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:23.920 Vrabels not afraid to change quarterbacks. We saw that, you know what I 408 00:29:25.000 --> 00:29:27.880 mean, When Mariotta was getting paid all that money and Ryan Tannehill came over 409 00:29:29.039 --> 00:29:33.599 on that trade and was making low money before we gave him a big deal. 410 00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:38.319 You know, he switched him out real quick, and he didn't have 411 00:29:38.440 --> 00:29:41.920 no problem with that he saw the best chance to win and went with it. 412 00:29:42.160 --> 00:29:45.519 That's why I like about Vrabel. But so there is that, and 413 00:29:47.680 --> 00:29:55.440 there's another one here that I want to address, Brown Chubby Bear. If 414 00:29:55.519 --> 00:30:00.359 will Levis kills it in the preseason, then I think obvious answer is trade 415 00:30:00.400 --> 00:30:06.279 on for running Tannehill and go with Will Levis. I don't tell you who 416 00:30:06.319 --> 00:30:10.480 we need to trade. We need to trade fucking Malik Willis. We need 417 00:30:10.559 --> 00:30:15.079 to see if anybody wants that guy. We need to get a pick or 418 00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:18.039 and maybe a line into something like that. Let's just ship him off. 419 00:30:18.519 --> 00:30:23.400 But Derek disagrees with you. Yeah, Hey, hey, hey, dude, 420 00:30:25.720 --> 00:30:29.480 he's not it. I'm sorry, personally, he's not it. Man. 421 00:30:29.519 --> 00:30:33.000 He's a good athlete. He can run around, but he's not gonna 422 00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:36.799 sit in that pocket, go through his throw, through his projections and make 423 00:30:36.880 --> 00:30:41.480 the right pass. He doesn't have it in him. He's gonna Who ad 424 00:30:41.599 --> 00:30:48.039 vents you on Marcus Mariota, that's exact. Yeah, Mariota was way more 425 00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:57.799 talented than his his attitude, the way Marcus Mariota is very nonh Yeah, 426 00:30:57.880 --> 00:31:02.920 I don't care, man, I don't care. It's cool. Everything's cool. 427 00:31:03.799 --> 00:31:07.680 That's that's not how quarterbacks are. Man, Yeah, quarterbacks coming the 428 00:31:07.759 --> 00:31:11.559 room, you know it. Yeah, Hey we lost, Everything's gonna be 429 00:31:11.680 --> 00:31:15.079 okay. So yeah, I mean I can see what people saying, like, 430 00:31:15.599 --> 00:31:19.599 you don't draft the quarterback is high as we drafted Will Levice for him 431 00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:26.319 to see. But you also don't pay a fucking quarterback twenty seven million for 432 00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:33.119 him to sit either. So if I feel like, if Levis kills it 433 00:31:33.279 --> 00:31:38.079 in preseason, you gotta just evaluate is he gonna kill it in the regular 434 00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:44.119 season against the starters? Like man come home and like, I really feel 435 00:31:44.160 --> 00:31:48.599 like Tannehill just keeps and keeps getting disrespected. I don't I don't understand the 436 00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:56.240 Tannehill hate. The man hasn't done anything but ball since he's been into the 437 00:31:56.359 --> 00:32:00.440 seat. Well, I think most of the hate comes from the post play. 438 00:32:00.519 --> 00:32:02.880 The man, listen, he comes from Wayne game, the fucking Bengals 439 00:32:02.960 --> 00:32:07.799 game. Man, I still have I still have fucking nightmares about the game. 440 00:32:08.079 --> 00:32:13.240 I'm sure all the fuck other Titans fans still have nightmares about the game. 441 00:32:13.839 --> 00:32:15.640 That was our year. I don't even want to go into all that 442 00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:20.759 because that was our year. I mean, that was our team. Our 443 00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:24.559 defense had fucking nice such should make me mad when I think about the game. 444 00:32:24.799 --> 00:32:30.279 And I will say in in Ryan Tannehill's defense, because everybody knows I'm 445 00:32:30.400 --> 00:32:34.880 on defense about Ryan Tannehill. I could either he could come or go. 446 00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:37.960 I don't care. But yeah, as far as in defense of him, 447 00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:45.759 the Bengals that year intercepted a record I think it was like sixteen or nineteen 448 00:32:45.880 --> 00:32:51.160 interceptions in the postseason. Their their their, their backup bunch was just right. 449 00:32:51.920 --> 00:32:58.559 They accepted the fucking first pass of the game. But read this right 450 00:32:58.599 --> 00:33:05.039 here from mister Newsom here. Did you watch the handoff that they did with 451 00:33:05.160 --> 00:33:10.680 Maliki Willis moved the tight end. I don't want that man to the ball. 452 00:33:13.440 --> 00:33:22.400 I mean he can, yeah, I've seen the phone ball. Butterfamer 453 00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:27.839 he bob he Man. Listen. Look, I'm not a hater Malik Willis, 454 00:33:27.920 --> 00:33:30.119 but yeah, it's just not It's just not it. Man. Last 455 00:33:30.200 --> 00:33:36.319 year was a terrible year to draft uh quarterback and John Robinson did it. 456 00:33:36.559 --> 00:33:39.000 He did it. He went and got will Levis when he probably should have 457 00:33:39.039 --> 00:33:44.480 gotten somebody else. But I said, will Levis, Malik Willis. Malik 458 00:33:44.559 --> 00:33:47.160 Willis is just not eat guys. I know a lot of people like him 459 00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:51.319 because he's real likable. I met him in person. He's a good, 460 00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:57.279 cool dude. He's not ever gonna be the tightest franchise quarterback yet. And 461 00:33:57.359 --> 00:34:01.200 it's a red listen, It's a reason they drafted Will Levis after drafting Malik 462 00:34:01.319 --> 00:34:07.400 with his next It's a reason we had to go sign Josh Dobbs to play 463 00:34:07.480 --> 00:34:13.360 in the playoffs. And he started, and he started, and Malik when 464 00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:15.800 he still didn't touch the field. He's not it, guys. The Titans 465 00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:21.360 don't think he's it. Brabel doesn't think he miss Amy doesn't even think he's 466 00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:23.239 it. She loved him, she loved him as a player, as a 467 00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:27.599 person. But he's not gonna be the one that takes us to the super 468 00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:30.280 Bowl. Shit, he ain't even gonna take us to the the postseason. 469 00:34:30.760 --> 00:34:35.559 So sorry, Malik with us. I know everybody keeps saying you're forgotten. 470 00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:38.400 You're just not it. I'm sorry. Yeah, the last thing I'm gonna 471 00:34:38.440 --> 00:34:45.119 say about Malik is, uh, he just he just not You're all right? 472 00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:51.280 Yeah, yeah, you covered he just saint it it. But let's 473 00:34:51.320 --> 00:34:55.199 cover this one here from Derek. Derek says, why is there so much 474 00:34:55.280 --> 00:35:00.800 hate on our wide receiver corp. I don't think it's hate. Derek is 475 00:35:00.880 --> 00:35:05.159 kind of like it is what it is. Yeah, it's kind of it's 476 00:35:05.239 --> 00:35:07.800 kind of being realistic. Now, I mean, who do we have. 477 00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:13.639 We got Trayling Ursus, Traylon Ursus, I'm number one. We will see 478 00:35:13.639 --> 00:35:16.519 you. What has he done? I mean he had a very sub part 479 00:35:16.639 --> 00:35:22.559 year as a rookie. He was hurt. Uh, I mean, how 480 00:35:22.639 --> 00:35:25.519 can you just hype that up? I mean, what do we have that 481 00:35:25.719 --> 00:35:30.719 you can honestly look and say, Man, he's gonna fall next year because 482 00:35:30.760 --> 00:35:37.360 of what he did last year. I have a lot of hope for Traylon. 483 00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:40.760 I do have to say that just because he was injured a lot last 484 00:35:40.840 --> 00:35:44.679 year, I will give you that, and the asthma thing I think kind 485 00:35:44.679 --> 00:35:47.400 of held him back and he looked he looks a lot better this year. 486 00:35:47.400 --> 00:35:51.880 I will say that already. You know what I mean, just seeing him 487 00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:55.599 move around and practice last year, he was Yeah, he was sluggish last 488 00:35:55.679 --> 00:35:59.119 year, man, And then there was that picture of him like been over 489 00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:01.280 with his holdings and all that. You know. So, but I think 490 00:36:01.360 --> 00:36:05.559 trailing honestly, Yeah, I think there's a lot to hype up there about 491 00:36:05.639 --> 00:36:07.920 Trey Lion. I don't you know, people want to compare him to AJ 492 00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:13.519 Brown, and I think that's where the unfairness comes in. Yeah, I 493 00:36:13.599 --> 00:36:17.039 mean not every not every wide receiver comes out. It's like a J. 494 00:36:17.199 --> 00:36:20.760 Brown. You know, a J. Brown is something special. I mean 495 00:36:21.599 --> 00:36:24.719 he's not like super special, but he is something special. Yeah, And 496 00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:30.480 I mean I don't know that he said. I mean he said, hey, 497 00:36:30.639 --> 00:36:35.800 I mean who else is it? I mean Nique Westbrookie Keena? Yeah, 498 00:36:36.320 --> 00:36:42.480 who is the guy? Yeah? Zactly. And then we got like 499 00:36:42.800 --> 00:36:49.480 Jacob Copeland and then we got to start going into Colton down and honestly, 500 00:36:49.639 --> 00:36:52.679 honestly, Derek, to ask you a question, I don't think it's a 501 00:36:52.760 --> 00:36:58.800 lot of hate. It's just a lot of unproven Yeah. I mean it's 502 00:36:58.840 --> 00:37:02.039 just unproven. I mean it's a lot of people that just don't know. 503 00:37:02.320 --> 00:37:06.639 Bro. Like, it's like it's unproven. So it's not a lot of 504 00:37:06.719 --> 00:37:10.000 confidence going into it. You can't honestly say, man, how wide receivers 505 00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:13.679 like on a ball next year? You can't say that and be real, 506 00:37:13.920 --> 00:37:17.119 like be confident that we're gonna ball out. We all, as Titans fans, 507 00:37:17.199 --> 00:37:23.760 we all hope and pray did Trey Lion Burks turned into the come did 508 00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:30.000 he come out and turn into a J Brown type receiver? Have good stats 509 00:37:30.039 --> 00:37:34.039 and you know, be up there with the other receivers in the NFL. 510 00:37:34.199 --> 00:37:39.760 But come on, man, we don't know that. You know. You 511 00:37:39.840 --> 00:37:45.039 know what's crazy about this is I actually I think I started the whole thing 512 00:37:45.159 --> 00:37:47.800 on this on the on the social media thing because I wrote the story about 513 00:37:47.840 --> 00:37:51.320 it, and then I tweeted it and posted it, you know, and 514 00:37:51.400 --> 00:37:53.719 then all of a sudden, like a week later, I just started seeing 515 00:37:53.800 --> 00:37:59.719 that everywhere everybody was talking about how there Abel had more touchdown receptions than our 516 00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:04.239 what and I thought it was hilarious, and you know that's that's great. 517 00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:09.480 Listen, Honestly, the most proven receiver we got on our if we're talking 518 00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:15.559 about production, the most proven wide receiver that we have on our roster right 519 00:38:15.599 --> 00:38:22.880 now is Derre Henry. If we're talking about production, like, Phillips had 520 00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.800 more fumbles than Burke's hand receptions. That's why rons he was getting no respect. 521 00:38:27.920 --> 00:38:30.599 They haven't earned any exactly, they haven't earned it. Phillips to say, 522 00:38:30.679 --> 00:38:34.800 hey, I'm a big fan of Kyle Phillips. I'm gonna be the 523 00:38:34.880 --> 00:38:37.480 first to tell you I really got high hosts for that kid. I want 524 00:38:37.559 --> 00:38:44.360 Phillips to come out and be Wes Welker point two. But listen, he 525 00:38:44.480 --> 00:38:46.159 has to prove it after last year. You know, he came out and 526 00:38:46.199 --> 00:38:50.960 showed little glimpses, but he got to prove it. Morocco says. Our 527 00:38:51.000 --> 00:38:53.719 group of our receivers may turn may not turn out as bad as some of 528 00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:58.440 us making it out to be. But the handling of the situation by the 529 00:38:58.559 --> 00:39:01.960 tight by the tightness, honestly why people feel it is the group good group. 530 00:39:02.199 --> 00:39:07.079 And you absolutely right, Morocco. I mean with the with the aj 531 00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:13.920 bach I a Joe Brown trade first and then us not signing braining any good 532 00:39:14.039 --> 00:39:19.400 players in like after we shift aj Brown off, we drafted or we drafted 533 00:39:19.519 --> 00:39:22.760 A Trading Burkes, we drafted Kyle Phillips. But what else have we done, 534 00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:28.760 man, Mike Exactly. You know, until until they do something in 535 00:39:28.840 --> 00:39:34.360 the NFL, nobody's gonna give them any respect. And everybody says that, 536 00:39:34.480 --> 00:39:36.840 you know, like, uh, there's a lot of people out there that 537 00:39:36.880 --> 00:39:40.039 will say that Nwi doesn't get enough respect for what he's done for the Titans. 538 00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:45.760 But there's a I love showing these OTA videos to point out the differences 539 00:39:45.800 --> 00:39:50.239 of players because I'm a coach. That's what I do. I coach players, 540 00:39:50.320 --> 00:39:52.800 so I look at little things I see, like hip movement and stuff 541 00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:59.440 like that. There was a video that all three wide receivers come out, 542 00:39:59.639 --> 00:40:04.880 did it? Cut caught the ball and then or cut run back through a 543 00:40:04.960 --> 00:40:08.840 set of cones and caught the ball, and all three wide receivers did it. 544 00:40:09.039 --> 00:40:14.280 You saw Burke's first, then you saw Nwi, then you saw Phillips 545 00:40:15.199 --> 00:40:17.960 and in that clip. I even posted it on my social media. If 546 00:40:19.039 --> 00:40:23.159 y'all want to check it out, go ahead fan Battle page too. It's 547 00:40:23.320 --> 00:40:31.199 obvious that there is a major difference in between Burk's and Phillips's agility, speed, 548 00:40:31.800 --> 00:40:36.960 burst off the line, the cut, I mean everything, The way 549 00:40:37.039 --> 00:40:43.119 they dig everything is just one hundred percent better than Nwi. He looks like 550 00:40:43.239 --> 00:40:46.239 a big slow He looks like if I was out there trying to do what 551 00:40:46.360 --> 00:40:52.840 these wide receivers were doing next to these guys. I was so surprised that 552 00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:58.039 we resigned him, Like I understand that he's one of those guys, is 553 00:40:58.079 --> 00:41:00.159 like dependable. He was there, he was out there. You know they 554 00:41:00.239 --> 00:41:04.480 say, you know, your best attribute is your accessibility. You know the 555 00:41:04.559 --> 00:41:07.480 quote they always used, you know, you gotta be out there, And 556 00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.320 he was out there. He made a couple plays he had at that one 557 00:41:10.440 --> 00:41:14.400 big game who I think it was against Denver. We had like one hundred 558 00:41:14.440 --> 00:41:20.119 and fifty yards two toul It's not gonna happen again. Guys like I don't 559 00:41:20.199 --> 00:41:23.719 even see nwas the number two, the guys a number three like he shouldn't 560 00:41:24.000 --> 00:41:29.039 on any other team with legit receivers. He liked three or four. Honestly, 561 00:41:29.119 --> 00:41:32.320 y'all. The only reason we know Nick Westbrook and Kennan's because he played 562 00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:36.960 for the Titans, Bro, And we sucked at why we suck at building 563 00:41:37.039 --> 00:41:39.199 where receivers like, it's just a curse we got, Bro. That's why 564 00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:44.559 I was so angry about a j. Brown tray We finally draft a top 565 00:41:44.679 --> 00:41:49.840 tier receiver, Like we finally did it, John Robinson, you did it, 566 00:41:50.239 --> 00:41:52.280 but you didn't You shipped them the fuck off, Bro, and then 567 00:41:52.440 --> 00:41:57.440 you dropped the ball on the trey Lin Burke's pick where we don't know that 568 00:41:57.679 --> 00:42:02.480 yet, but if Trayon Burks doesn't turn out to be at least half away 569 00:42:02.519 --> 00:42:06.920 a j Brown was then you dropped, You dropped the ball, John Robson, 570 00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:09.239 and I know you don't and I know you don't give a fuck because 571 00:42:09.239 --> 00:42:15.760 you got fired. But yeah, Burk's percentage of downs play will tell, 572 00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:20.039 will tell the tale on our wide receivers. If he's missed forty percent of 573 00:42:20.119 --> 00:42:22.039 the plays, and our games again, our past games in trouble definitely, 574 00:42:22.400 --> 00:42:28.320 and especially if we don't sign another receiver or bring another Legiti receiver, and 575 00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:32.320 we're in trouble again. And I feel so fucking bad for Tannehill because he's 576 00:42:32.320 --> 00:42:37.280 gonna suck. He's gonna suck. Who who is he gonna throw the ball 577 00:42:37.360 --> 00:42:40.920 too? And then y'all gonna be all on Facebook put Levis in? Who 578 00:42:42.039 --> 00:42:45.800 the fuck is Levin's gonna pass the ball too? Bro? It's not it's 579 00:42:45.880 --> 00:42:50.119 not gonna be on the quarterbacks. The Titans have to address this wide receiver 580 00:42:50.280 --> 00:42:52.679 position, bro. And that's why we sit back and we're hoping pray that 581 00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:59.199 Colten down. It's good. We hope Kyle Phillips had you know, bounces 582 00:42:59.239 --> 00:43:01.760 back tray line birs does what he does, because it's gonna fall back on 583 00:43:01.880 --> 00:43:07.119 our quarterback and it's gonna fall on our offense and hopefully, just hopefully we 584 00:43:07.159 --> 00:43:10.880 can just through out the Chig every play and chay Lion Burds. Don't forget 585 00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:15.159 about Chig. He's almost like a wide receiver, y'all, So we can't 586 00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:19.880 use that guy. He's explosive, So I mean, we forget about him. 587 00:43:19.880 --> 00:43:22.519 When we're talking about explosive. Shout out the Chig. Were gonna need 588 00:43:22.559 --> 00:43:24.599 you to this year, big guy. Yeah, yeah, you know, 589 00:43:24.679 --> 00:43:29.079 we were talking about big tight ends and then we'll have to wrap up the 590 00:43:29.119 --> 00:43:34.679 show because we're in and kind of early tonight for a special. But shout 591 00:43:34.719 --> 00:43:37.840 out the tight ends we were talking about, you know why check and Delaney 592 00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:44.440 Walker, Delaney Walker, the Chig. I don't know if y'all remember when 593 00:43:44.480 --> 00:43:49.079 Delaney came over from the forty nine ers, but it was it wasn't the 594 00:43:49.199 --> 00:43:52.199 first year he didn't blast onto the scene. It was the second year he 595 00:43:52.320 --> 00:43:58.159 blasted onto the scene. The first year he got like I think five hundred 596 00:43:58.239 --> 00:44:01.440 yards and a touchdowns or something. Towards the end of the year he really 597 00:44:01.480 --> 00:44:05.679 come on and that's why he had such a great season the next year because 598 00:44:05.679 --> 00:44:08.079 they saw what he could be. But when he came in he was a 599 00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:14.480 backup tight end and Chick had very close numbers. As a matter of fact, 600 00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:20.559 I mean most touchdowns at any tight end rookie or any tight end period, 601 00:44:20.760 --> 00:44:23.159 I can't remember. He had a good rookie season, and that's something 602 00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:28.480 that's something I mean, it's as bad as we feel about trade Lin Burd's 603 00:44:28.519 --> 00:44:31.480 and uh caw I feel as rookie seasons, we did have a good rookie 604 00:44:31.519 --> 00:44:35.639 season from our tight end, and we did dropt another tight end to Josh 605 00:44:35.679 --> 00:44:38.960 Whitey guy. So hey, we got some stuff to build on. We 606 00:44:39.079 --> 00:44:44.679 just need them to produce. So if we produce, we're gonna be a 607 00:44:44.760 --> 00:44:47.320 lot better than we think. We all guys tell you, Yeah, I 608 00:44:47.440 --> 00:44:52.559 agree, I agree, And it's gonna be all about production on offense. 609 00:44:55.199 --> 00:45:00.960 Absolutely. Um. So that's pretty much gonna do for our show tonight. 610 00:45:01.159 --> 00:45:05.280 We do want to let you know that coming up.
