Turn the much flood on your touch. What's up, Titans 7 00:00:20.399 --> 00:00:27.359 fans, it's your boys here from the Titans Fan Battle podcast Maximus Titan fan 8 00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:33.320 and my main co host, Flame Douglas. Main't off the Hey, it 9 00:00:33.479 --> 00:00:38.159 never duplicated. Man, tightened up. That's right. Tighten up everybody. 10 00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:42.079 Now tonight we're gonna we're gonna talk about a few things. We're gonna get 11 00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:45.759 into the offense first. I think we want to talk a little bit about 12 00:00:45.759 --> 00:00:49.640 what we think the offense is gonna look like. Uh, Flame, you 13 00:00:49.640 --> 00:00:53.159 want to take it from there, yeah, man, I'll take it. 14 00:00:53.200 --> 00:00:56.039 So we're gonna talk about this Titan offense. Man. First off, I 15 00:00:56.079 --> 00:00:59.439 think it started off with, well we're gonna do at quarterback? I mean 16 00:00:59.479 --> 00:01:02.960 that's hey. I mean, that's the that's the number one question right now. 17 00:01:02.960 --> 00:01:07.040 Are we running with Tannehill or are we gonna end up shipping Tannehill off 18 00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.959 and we're gonna go with our rookie Will Levis. I mean, personally, 19 00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:14.719 I think we should go on the rocket out with Tannehill one more year, 20 00:01:14.959 --> 00:01:19.959 because I mean it all it really depends on if we're gonna if we're gonna 21 00:01:19.959 --> 00:01:25.359 do the read of where they calling that the if we're gonna we're gonna start 22 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.879 over, or if we're gonna keep going with what we're going. I feel 23 00:01:27.879 --> 00:01:30.879 like, man, let's just run it with Tanny one more time. I 24 00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:34.439 mean, we're paying them an arm in the leg. We might as well 25 00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:37.680 throw the man back out there. If we're gonna run it with Tanny. 26 00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.359 We got Derek Henry back in the backfield. We got Taj Spears, the 27 00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:45.760 rookie we drafted from two lane. I'm like, I'm liking what I'm seeing 28 00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:51.439 from here right from him right now, good speed wide receiver. That's where 29 00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:53.599 it get kind of depressed, and that we got it. We're bringing back 30 00:01:53.640 --> 00:02:00.319 trailing Burke's hopefully hopefully he can stay healthy, give us some good production because 31 00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:05.040 he's definitely our number one receiver. Behind him, I think we got Nicol 32 00:02:05.079 --> 00:02:09.639 Westbrookie keener hopefully he can produce. Hopefully, I mean we need him to 33 00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:15.280 kiss some balls, get open, create some to create some separation for once. 34 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.800 And then behind him, I think we got h Kyle Phillips, another 35 00:02:19.879 --> 00:02:23.080 rookie who got hurt last year. We need him to come in. You 36 00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:28.159 know, I said rookie, But yes, yes, say yeah. It's 37 00:02:28.199 --> 00:02:32.280 definitely approve of you for Kyle Phillips and I got I got high hopes for 38 00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:36.919 Kyle Phillips. Man. He showed me a lot last year in training camp 39 00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.639 and then when the regular season started, he had a couple of good games. 40 00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:43.560 I like him as a slide receiver. Man. I think he can 41 00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:46.840 definitely get open. Tanny can get the ball to him on some play action 42 00:02:46.919 --> 00:02:52.120 stuff. And then everybody talking about the rookie we drafted the the guy, 43 00:02:52.400 --> 00:02:58.879 uh ut Martin. Yeah, oh yeah, colding down. Yeah, I'm 44 00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:00.639 liking what I'm hearing about him. You know, he got good size, 45 00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:05.719 good speed. Man. Right now, we just were just hoping one of 46 00:03:05.719 --> 00:03:09.599 them can bloom become a become a star receiver. It's not a star. 47 00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:13.719 Just produce. That's all we're asking. Man, if you could just produce, 48 00:03:15.439 --> 00:03:19.319 we'll be fine. And as far as you know, the worst part 49 00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:22.639 of our team last year was our offensive line. I kind of feel like 50 00:03:22.719 --> 00:03:28.120 we fixed that problem. We are with our first round draft pick. Um. 51 00:03:28.159 --> 00:03:30.240 I just want to see it. I just want to see it all 52 00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:35.280 together and work so hopefully, like through the preseason and some guys we picked 53 00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:38.879 up in free agency, I just feel like we we might hey, we 54 00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.520 might be better than a lot of people think. And that's what I and 55 00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:45.039 that's what I'm hoping, and I hope. I'm hoping to Tanny produce. 56 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:47.360 Dearck Kenry gonna do his thing. We know what he's gonna do. I 57 00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:53.479 just need these receivers to get open produce. I'm excited, man, what 58 00:03:53.599 --> 00:03:57.879 you what you thinking? Max? Well? Uh, to be honest, 59 00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.680 you know, and some people come me at Homer whatever you want to call 60 00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:04.719 me, but uh, the way I see it is, is the offense 61 00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:09.599 better than it was last year? And for me, the answer is a 62 00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:15.639 resounding yes. That's an easy yes. We got Taj Spears better than Dantre 63 00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:20.639 Hilliard. Yeah, I honestly believe that. Josh Wiley will produce as much 64 00:04:21.079 --> 00:04:27.079 as Hooper, maybe more. Anything about the tight ends, I'm sorry because 65 00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.720 you I just say anything about tight ends. But I do like what I 66 00:04:30.800 --> 00:04:33.839 do like Wiley, and I'm thinking that's gonna be a special group. We 67 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:38.480 got to but go ahead. Yeah, and then of course we got Chig. 68 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:41.720 You know, I'm a big fan of Chig. Dude. Man, 69 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:45.959 everything he does, I love Chig Man. I can't help it. Uh, 70 00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:49.439 I follow him all over Twitter and everything because I just love everything he 71 00:04:49.480 --> 00:04:53.480 does. Man, twit. Chig is an awesome dude. Plus he performs, 72 00:04:53.879 --> 00:04:58.120 and that's the most important part. Yeah. Um, But as far 73 00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.160 as receiver goes, I think, uh, you know, and I said 74 00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.720 this a lot of this offseason, and this is why I think people are 75 00:05:02.759 --> 00:05:08.600 calling me a homer, But it's because we didn't draft any well. We 76 00:05:08.720 --> 00:05:12.120 drafted one wide receiver in the seventh round, but we drafted a lot of 77 00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:15.839 pass catchers and that's the important part, you know. And I think ta 78 00:05:15.040 --> 00:05:18.600 J. Spears is gonna it was one of those dynamic guys that I could 79 00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:24.399 see lining up in the slot a lot, you know. I mean he 80 00:05:24.439 --> 00:05:27.519 could he could actually line up in the slot and then you got him and 81 00:05:27.639 --> 00:05:32.240 the King and Chig and Wiley on the field at the same time. With 82 00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:35.959 birds, we got some weapons, man, I'm telling you. And if 83 00:05:36.000 --> 00:05:41.040 you're a creative play caller, you know, I just I just see all 84 00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:44.360 kinds of opportunity there. And plus, everybody's got to remember the last two 85 00:05:44.399 --> 00:05:47.439 years we've been dealing with this injury plague that has been killer. I mean 86 00:05:47.480 --> 00:05:50.360 even last year, I think we were the number one injured team in the 87 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:53.839 NFL. We didn't break the record like we did a year before, but 88 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:58.600 we were still the most injured team in the NFL. So you know, 89 00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:01.639 that's a that's a big that's a big problem. But as far as wide 90 00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:08.360 receivers go, I'm excited about Colton Dow and if you were. I'm not 91 00:06:08.399 --> 00:06:11.399 a UT fan, but I live around a lot of UT fans. I'm 92 00:06:11.439 --> 00:06:17.680 a Georgia fan, but everybody up here next to Knoxville loves UT. So 93 00:06:17.839 --> 00:06:23.120 I'm in UT country and Colton Dow and the UT mark. I mean, 94 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:27.680 Colton Dow put a show on at UT. I think it was like seven 95 00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:31.480 receptions for one hundred and twenty four yards or something like that. It was 96 00:06:31.639 --> 00:06:34.959 sick, dude, literally when I saw the kid, I thought, man, 97 00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:38.360 he's probably gonna go somewhere else. But I didn't know he was, 98 00:06:38.680 --> 00:06:42.000 you know, gonna go to the draft this year or not. I was 99 00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:45.319 really excited when we picked him. I didn't know he was even available. 100 00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.560 I wasn't even he wasn't even on my radar as far as the draft goes. 101 00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:50.160 And then when I saw it, I was like, oh my god, 102 00:06:50.839 --> 00:06:55.800 that's the kid that burned UT. And as soon as I knew that, 103 00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.600 I fell in love with the kid. Not because he burned UT. 104 00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:01.399 I still, you know, I show my hometown pride too. But yeah, 105 00:07:02.639 --> 00:07:08.160 but Georgia comes first. But anyways, first the wide receivers go. 106 00:07:08.360 --> 00:07:13.160 You know, we have to talk about it. Everybody wants us to talk 107 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:17.879 about it, beyondre Hopkins. That's right. Everybody wants to know, man, 108 00:07:18.079 --> 00:07:20.439 what's your what's your take? What do you think we do? Do 109 00:07:20.480 --> 00:07:25.800 you think we get him? Do we not get him? And why? 110 00:07:25.959 --> 00:07:30.680 Man? I think that we're not going to get him. I wouldn't let 111 00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:32.519 me say that. Let me start out by saying I would love DeAndre Hopkins 112 00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:36.000 on the Titans. He's always been one of my favorite receivers. He always 113 00:07:36.040 --> 00:07:40.800 has killed us every time we played the Texans or the Cardinals, whoever you 114 00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:43.600 whoever he's with, he shreds is every time. He's been doing it for 115 00:07:43.680 --> 00:07:49.680 years. But I'm kind of think I'm thinking that we're over that. Go 116 00:07:49.839 --> 00:07:56.439 get the veteran receiver thing. Like I think after Julio burns this last time, 117 00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:01.360 it's like you kind of want to stay away from that man. That's 118 00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:05.680 how I think. Go get the old vent who's been killing it. But 119 00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:11.279 he's gonna come here and not give us much, and it all I also 120 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:15.160 say this, Um, I don't I don't know. We might have to 121 00:08:15.160 --> 00:08:18.040 give up too much. We might have to give up too much to even 122 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:22.000 afford of DeAndre Hopkins, especially like what we got going on with like all 123 00:08:22.040 --> 00:08:26.079 these offensive weapons that we talked about with Chig and uh, you know, 124 00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:30.920 with the new guys coming in, like we need them to follow behind some 125 00:08:31.000 --> 00:08:35.120 of these veterans and so they can get you know, acclimated to the offense. 126 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:39.320 We got a new offensive coordinating, Tim Kelly. So we need everybody 127 00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:41.600 you know, in a in a position. And I don't think we need 128 00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:48.840 to give up three four five guys to afford DeAndre Hoppins because we're gonna have 129 00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:52.279 to cut if we don't have to, if we don't cut Tanny, which 130 00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:56.559 if we cut Tanny, we probably can afford them. But if we're gonna 131 00:08:56.639 --> 00:09:00.240 roll with Tanny, which I hope we do, we don't need to give 132 00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:03.519 up none of our key pieces. I say, I say we leave DeAndre 133 00:09:03.600 --> 00:09:07.720 Hopkins along. Let's go with these young guys and let's see what these young 134 00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:11.480 guys can take us. How you feel about the DeAndre Hopkins thing. I'm 135 00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:15.559 glad you asked, because it's a two part question for me. For me, 136 00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:20.120 it's do we keep Tannehill or are we rolling with Will Levis. If 137 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:24.440 we're rolling with Will Levis, I say, no, we don't need we 138 00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:28.240 don't need DeAndre Hopkins. We need to just roll with what we got. 139 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:31.559 Let's let's do it. Yeah, but that's if we're gonna trade, you 140 00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.279 know, if the trade happens, you know, or if it doesn't have 141 00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:39.480 whatever you know is everybody's talking about the Raiders trade right now, but you 142 00:09:39.480 --> 00:09:43.080 know that's gonna be a little bit further down the line. I honestly think 143 00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:46.720 the DeAndre Hopkins deal might be done. But before he gets his physical and 144 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.039 his released. So I think people who are saying trade him off and let's 145 00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:56.639 get Hopkins, that's not gonna work. But my point is is if we 146 00:09:56.960 --> 00:10:01.480 decide that we are gonna go for and we're gonna run for it, I 147 00:10:01.919 --> 00:10:07.120 do think that we could get rid of a couple smaller guys like Jamarco Jones 148 00:10:07.159 --> 00:10:11.600 off the offensive line, and even I really liked the guy Rashad Weaver. 149 00:10:11.440 --> 00:10:16.759 There's a couple more small, smaller, backup rollish type guys that you could 150 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:22.000 get rid of, Like you said, four or five guys unfortunately, but 151 00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:24.879 yeah, four or five guys you'd have to delete off the team to take 152 00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:28.679 on a contract like DeAndre Hopkins, because we still got to sign Will Levis 153 00:10:28.720 --> 00:10:33.320 to his Crickey contract. Chat out. We got Scronski today, by the 154 00:10:33.320 --> 00:10:39.200 way. Yeah, But like I said, if we're going for the win, 155 00:10:39.919 --> 00:10:43.440 then I think we go all out. We try to get Hopkins, 156 00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:48.039 because honestly, with DeAndre Hopkins, our offense looks completely different. You put 157 00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:52.120 him on the other side with Burke's and that set up I told you about 158 00:10:52.120 --> 00:10:56.519 with Chig and Sharpe and Henry. Come on, man, that's just Toy 159 00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:01.039 and Kyle phillips Man, Yeah, and Kyle Philip Yeah. I mean, 160 00:11:01.080 --> 00:11:03.919 you know, I really hope he stays healthy. I hope the weight that 161 00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:05.320 he said he put on in the off season, he said he put on 162 00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:09.440 about twenty pounds in the off season. I really hope that helps him stay 163 00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.879 healthy and stay on the field because I envisioned him as like a West welkerish 164 00:11:15.080 --> 00:11:18.279 type of wide receiver, you know, or a Julian Elman type, you 165 00:11:18.279 --> 00:11:22.000 know, one of those little small guys that gets in there and you kind 166 00:11:22.000 --> 00:11:24.000 of lose track of him and then he pops out and you give him the 167 00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:33.120 football. Yeah, exactly. So yeah, that's pretty much my feeling on 168 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.879 it. I don't I guess if I had, if I was the GM 169 00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.799 and I had to, like, you know, make a decision as to 170 00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:43.639 whether I was going to go after DeAndre right now or not, I think 171 00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:48.639 I would probably gauge it and see how much he wanted. You know, 172 00:11:48.039 --> 00:11:54.200 some people are talking about his contract varies, you know, depending on who 173 00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:56.639 you talk to. Some people say, because the Cardinals are already paying him 174 00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:01.399 so much money, he's not gonna want that much money. But I still 175 00:12:01.399 --> 00:12:05.120 think he's gonna want that much money. So I think he's probably gonna want 176 00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:11.720 twenty twenty to twenty two million year at least, and I just I think 177 00:12:11.759 --> 00:12:16.519 that is too much to give to an aging veteran wide receiver, even if 178 00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:20.840 it is DeAndre Hopkins. I love d hop and I think he's probably got 179 00:12:20.879 --> 00:12:22.919 two more years, good years left in the tank. If you look at 180 00:12:22.919 --> 00:12:28.320 his last seventeen games or sixteen games, excuse me, seventeen sixteen sixteen, 181 00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.320 sorry brain, anyway, you look at the last season he would have had 182 00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:37.600 you take away the six games suspended. I think he had like a thirteen 183 00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:43.600 hundred yards and one hundred and four receptions and like eighteen touches. Very productive, 184 00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:46.720 but you know, you take away the six games, you know, 185 00:12:46.759 --> 00:12:50.159 But is he going to continue to do that for the next year. I 186 00:12:50.200 --> 00:12:52.240 don't know. But if I had to pick, sorry, really long rand, 187 00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:56.000 if I had to pick no, I would not get DeAndre Hopkins, 188 00:12:56.240 --> 00:12:58.919 and I want one more time. We have to we have to think about 189 00:13:00.320 --> 00:13:03.240 will he do that in our offense. We don't pay, We're not a 190 00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:07.200 pass heavy team, and I don't know with Tim Kelly if we will turn 191 00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:11.320 into a pass heavy team. So like what even what do you even want 192 00:13:11.320 --> 00:13:16.399 to come here and number two behind dear Camery because we're still gonna be that 193 00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:20.679 run heavy team, still gonna run the ball for sure. Yeah. And 194 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:26.320 another thing is that he if you look at his record, you know he 195 00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:31.360 doesn't as he gets older, he doesn't like to be as physical as a 196 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.039 receiver, and we demand our receivers to be physical. So either hey, 197 00:13:35.200 --> 00:13:43.200 he's gonna not blockwell and you know you're gonna have cornerbacks slipping into the backfield, 198 00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:46.279 or be you only bring him on on pass plays, at which point 199 00:13:46.360 --> 00:13:50.919 halfway through the season, everybody knows when DeAndre Hopkins comes on the field, 200 00:13:50.000 --> 00:13:54.480 hey, hey let's sack you know, Ryan Tannehill or whoever's in the backfield. 201 00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:58.919 So it just doesn't work. Yeah, it doesn't. It doesn't work 202 00:14:00.000 --> 00:14:01.759 for me. I don't think especially for the money. Now, if he 203 00:14:01.840 --> 00:14:07.320 was around a ten fifteen million guy, Yeah, absolutely, get out, 204 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:09.799 man, that's that's silly to even think about. Yes, get him, 205 00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:15.399 but not for the money that he's asking for. I don't think that's uh. 206 00:14:15.720 --> 00:14:18.320 I don't think that's a hang on. We go a pretty good one 207 00:14:18.360 --> 00:14:24.480 here and that. Yeah, a lot of people are talking about his connection 208 00:14:24.919 --> 00:14:28.559 with Tim Kelly. We got to consider that. You know, he's a 209 00:14:28.639 --> 00:14:33.679 he's a Texans guy, so there's always the Mike Vrabel connection. But also 210 00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:37.919 another huge factor I think is his money. You know, everybody keeps talking 211 00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:43.120 about DeAndre Hopkins is not really chasing a ring or whatever. He wants money 212 00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:50.960 and sorry paid, man, we broke. We are poor in Tennessee. 213 00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:54.720 Man, that's right. And another thing is you can't you can't like go 214 00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:58.559 into the season with zero salary cap. You know, people keep like edging 215 00:14:58.600 --> 00:15:01.759 the number is just down enough to where it's just at zero, and it's 216 00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:05.200 like, man, you can't do that now with the way I injuries I 217 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:09.919 set up. We gotta have a we we gotta have a little money to 218 00:15:09.960 --> 00:15:15.080 go get some free agents. Yeah, that's that's the silliness. I mean, 219 00:15:15.120 --> 00:15:16.919 come on, people, we can't fall out. We gotta play it 220 00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.519 safe at this point. Yeah. So we've got DeAndre Hopkins covered, We've 221 00:15:22.519 --> 00:15:28.000 got what our offense looks like covered. We're gonna do a cool little segment. 222 00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:31.320 I think it's cool. Anyway, We'll see if anybody else thinks it's 223 00:15:31.360 --> 00:15:39.039 cool. Called Titans Legends, and we're gonna talk about the old school because 224 00:15:39.440 --> 00:15:41.799 you have to know the old school. You have to know where you come 225 00:15:41.840 --> 00:15:46.039 from to know how you got here. And for all your young guys out 226 00:15:46.080 --> 00:15:48.799 there, if you don't know who these guys are, do yourself a favor. 227 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.960 Go home and google them and YouTube them and watch some of these videos 228 00:15:52.960 --> 00:15:56.480 of these dudes playing. You'll see what we're talking about for sure. Do 229 00:15:56.480 --> 00:15:58.720 you want to go first? You want me to go first, I'll let 230 00:15:58.759 --> 00:16:02.879 you first. You got the offensive. I went defensive on this when I 231 00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:06.159 let the I let the offense go first. Go ahead. Who you got? 232 00:16:06.200 --> 00:16:08.919 Who's who's your legend this week? Well, honestly, I struggle. 233 00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:11.360 You know, this our first show. I wanted to come out big, 234 00:16:12.639 --> 00:16:18.720 So obviously there were only two choices for me. I think everybody knows who's 235 00:16:18.799 --> 00:16:21.440 one of the choices, and when I say the other choice, they're gonna 236 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:25.799 automatically know who you know who the other one is. But I chose Eddie 237 00:16:25.799 --> 00:16:30.960 George because he is the reason that I actually, I mean not the reason 238 00:16:30.039 --> 00:16:33.600 I became a Titans fan. I always said, if Tennessee got a team, 239 00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:36.279 but follow him and blah blah blah. But he's the reason I became 240 00:16:36.360 --> 00:16:41.159 a die hard Titans fan. I mean him and Jeff Fisher's teams. Really, 241 00:16:41.240 --> 00:16:45.679 the way they played that hard knows. That's why I like Frable so 242 00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:48.279 much. Man, everybody's hard on him, you know, And I'm like, 243 00:16:48.360 --> 00:16:51.360 dude, I love this game. I love watching Derrick Henry go out 244 00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:55.399 there and beat people up. It's so fantastic. Sorry, got off on 245 00:16:55.440 --> 00:17:00.279 a tangent talking about Eddie George. Now, this is a bat in a 246 00:17:00.360 --> 00:17:06.680 time when there was no you can't lower your helmet, there was no you 247 00:17:06.759 --> 00:17:11.119 know, there was barely a face mask rule. Man. I mean, 248 00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:14.799 these people were beating each other up. They were gladiators back then. And 249 00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:18.960 this dude and masked. And I'm just talking about on the Tennessee Titans. 250 00:17:18.960 --> 00:17:21.759 I'm not talking about when we were the Houston Oilers. I'm not talking about 251 00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:26.680 when he went to Dallas. Talking about the Tennessee Titans. He had two 252 00:17:26.920 --> 00:17:32.799 thousand, three hundred and ninety eight carries, twenty four hundred carries, y'all, 253 00:17:33.359 --> 00:17:37.200 And y'all say we used Derek Henry too much, please. He had 254 00:17:37.279 --> 00:17:45.079 eighty six hundred and forty one yards total at fifty six touchdowns, two hundred 255 00:17:45.079 --> 00:17:51.519 and thirty six receptions for nineteen hundred and sixty two yards and ten touchdowns. 256 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:56.559 That man was a beast. He also had a forced fumble and a fumble 257 00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:03.599 recovery little little known fact about the force fumble thing. But right now he 258 00:18:03.759 --> 00:18:08.799 is currently the head coach of Tennessee State University. My alma mater, man, 259 00:18:08.960 --> 00:18:12.480 no big blue hey, shout out man, Shout out to Eddie George. 260 00:18:12.480 --> 00:18:15.559 Shout out to your alma mater. Man. That's awesome. And the 261 00:18:15.640 --> 00:18:18.799 one thing I'd like to point out about Eddie George is he is a consummate 262 00:18:18.839 --> 00:18:22.599 pro. He does exactly what you want him to. He performs on the 263 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:26.359 field and off the field. He carries himself with an attitude, and he 264 00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:30.480 also has a chip on his shoulder. And to find people like that is 265 00:18:30.519 --> 00:18:33.640 really hard. It's really hard. And not only that, he's a consummate 266 00:18:33.799 --> 00:18:38.720 franchise player. And what that means is that not only after he left the 267 00:18:38.759 --> 00:18:42.440 game, even though you know he went to Dallas or whatever for one year, 268 00:18:42.480 --> 00:18:48.000 blah blah blah, he comes back to Tennessee all the time. He's 269 00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:52.640 always around the Titans facility. He's even mentored two of our running backs that 270 00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:56.680 I know of. Right off the bat. I know he did Derrick Henry 271 00:18:56.480 --> 00:18:59.839 and Chris Johnson, and I'm sure he has mentored others. We just don't 272 00:18:59.880 --> 00:19:03.119 know about it because they're not popular enough. The point is is the man 273 00:19:03.759 --> 00:19:07.559 has a deep love for the Titans, the city in Nashville, and the 274 00:19:07.559 --> 00:19:12.880 state of Tennessee. And I think that in itself speaks volumes for the player 275 00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:17.599 and the type of person that he was. Yeah, his son also growd 276 00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:21.200 awated from Vanderbilt too. Yeah, that's right, that's right. Yes, 277 00:19:21.400 --> 00:19:25.559 he's a Tennessee dude. Basically, he basically stayed in Tennessee. Ye. 278 00:19:26.240 --> 00:19:29.359 I don't want to take anything away from Eddie. He should be in the 279 00:19:29.400 --> 00:19:30.920 Hall of Fame. I can't believe he's not. But he should be in 280 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:36.359 the Hall of Fame. But to give his total numbers, we've got twenty 281 00:19:36.359 --> 00:19:41.119 eight sixty five carries, ten thousand, four hundred forty one yards, sixty 282 00:19:41.119 --> 00:19:45.640 eight touchdowns, two hundred and sixty eight receptions, two thousand, two hundred 283 00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:49.599 and twenty seven yards, and ten touchdowns. On the receiving end, he 284 00:19:49.759 --> 00:19:56.680 was a beast. Hey man was a monster man. Yeah, speaking of 285 00:19:56.799 --> 00:20:00.880 Eddie, I don't think he get the get the resp back he deserves. 286 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:04.279 Man. That man was a real work war work horse. That man got 287 00:20:04.319 --> 00:20:07.680 that ball and he ran it. I mean, he didn't have as many 288 00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:14.160 long breakout runs as Derrick Henry, but he was looking to he was looking 289 00:20:14.200 --> 00:20:17.920 for physical physicality. He was he was looking to hit you. He wanted 290 00:20:17.920 --> 00:20:21.920 to hit you right in the mouth when he got that ball. And with 291 00:20:22.079 --> 00:20:25.640 Steve mcnare, that was a one two punch man. That was two great 292 00:20:25.720 --> 00:20:30.440 legends. Too great obviously he was. He was the other. I was 293 00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:33.759 debating between. I had a rough time taking that, to be honest, 294 00:20:33.799 --> 00:20:41.599 that was hard, all right. So I went on the defensive side of 295 00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:45.480 the ball and I went with my You know, I picked this guy. 296 00:20:45.599 --> 00:20:51.960 He was the first Titans jersey I got when I was a kid. So 297 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:55.880 when the Titans came to Nashville, I was probably only about eight or nine, 298 00:20:55.920 --> 00:20:59.200 I want to say nine years old. Man, I wanted the tightenst 299 00:20:59.279 --> 00:21:07.039 jersey, so that I picked straight from the University of Florida, javaon the 300 00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:11.640 freak curse Man. That man was a beast. I'm gonna I say a 301 00:21:11.839 --> 00:21:18.319 beast. He probably one of the fastest defensive players I've seen come off the 302 00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:22.720 ball coming off that line. Man, that man was a monster. First 303 00:21:22.759 --> 00:21:26.519 off, His rookie season was his best season. Man that man had fourteen 304 00:21:26.680 --> 00:21:33.000 and a half sacks his rookie season fourteen and a half sacks, and he 305 00:21:33.079 --> 00:21:37.799 also won Defensive Player of the Year in his rookie season. Like, man, 306 00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.720 come on, Tights, Tights don't have a We don't get that kind 307 00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:48.559 of recognition anymore, Man Java, Yeah, yeah, Man, that man, 308 00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:52.400 Hey, that was probably one of the best seasons of rookie ever had. 309 00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.640 And on top of that, he's still when it comes to just the 310 00:21:56.720 --> 00:22:00.799 Tigers and not the Oilers. He still leads the Tights in sacks, and 311 00:22:00.799 --> 00:22:06.240 he still got the record for all time sacks. The real Casey came so 312 00:22:06.559 --> 00:22:11.160 close to breaking it. He still Javan Curse still leads the team in sacks 313 00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:15.000 with fifty two. Jarell Casey had fifty one before he retired, so he 314 00:22:15.079 --> 00:22:18.960 was one short. So Javan Curse still got the restor. But let's check 315 00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:22.880 out his stats for his whole career. And we know in two thousand and 316 00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:26.720 three he did leave went to the Eagles for a few seasons, but he 317 00:22:26.799 --> 00:22:30.720 made his way back to Nashville. Gave us a couple of productive seasons. 318 00:22:32.119 --> 00:22:36.799 Ay and the Freak He's definitely a Titan legend. Listened to these stats though 319 00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:42.720 he had seventy four sacks, twenty six forced fumbles, four fumble recoveries, 320 00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:48.480 and one interception. Man, that monster. And then on top of that 321 00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:52.319 rookie season when he had those fourteen and a half sacks, Man that dude 322 00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:57.240 had fifteen tackles for loss. So he was in the backfield so much. 323 00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:00.519 He was in the backfield, dam the more than running back. Man. 324 00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:04.000 That man was a monster. Man, that man was a monster. And 325 00:23:04.160 --> 00:23:07.920 to still hold the Titan sack record says a lot because we've had a lot 326 00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:14.480 of guys come through, like hal vanden Bosch, Derek Morgan, Jarell Casey, 327 00:23:14.839 --> 00:23:18.200 Harold Landry. I mean, hey, we got guys. It's getting 328 00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:22.799 sacks. But ain't nobody stopped. Ain't nobody top Javan Kursey yet. Harold 329 00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:27.440 Landry is good. I still I still haven't seen nobody come off that ball 330 00:23:27.519 --> 00:23:32.920 like Jivan Curse the Freak. Man. He was fast, he was long, 331 00:23:33.759 --> 00:23:36.440 he could man, he was like he was just reaching around man. 332 00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:40.200 He was man. Monster. Dude was a monster. And I'm not a 333 00:23:40.200 --> 00:23:42.920 big Florida Gators fans. I got some family members that loved Florida Gators. 334 00:23:44.279 --> 00:23:48.759 But man, hey he was doing this thing at Florida too. But hey, 335 00:23:48.119 --> 00:23:52.039 I'm glad that Blood Adams drafted Javan curse because he was a monster. 336 00:23:52.480 --> 00:23:56.359 I wish I still had that jersey. I probably have it in here on 337 00:23:56.359 --> 00:23:59.000 the wall if I did. But yeah, that man was a beast. 338 00:23:59.079 --> 00:24:02.119 So I had to go with you when I curse my first legend on Week 339 00:24:02.160 --> 00:24:04.400 one. Man, I had to had to. That man was a monster. 340 00:24:06.480 --> 00:24:07.799 Dang, and I should have been better prepared. I got my I 341 00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:15.920 got a Red Jevon Curse jersey, and really that's cool. Yeah, yeah, 342 00:24:17.000 --> 00:24:18.920 yeah, Now, the freak was amazing to watch man that was on 343 00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:23.200 that that ninety eight, ninety nine or ninety nine, two thousand defense or 344 00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:26.599 two thousand, yeah, two thousand was his rookie season, I believe. 345 00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.920 But he was amazing. Man, that was that was unbelievable to watch him. 346 00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:33.599 Like you said, man, he was in the backfield so much. 347 00:24:34.200 --> 00:24:38.039 It was just like every every play you were just waiting for it, watching 348 00:24:38.119 --> 00:24:41.920 him, just waiting to see it, and you knew it was gonna happen. 349 00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:45.920 Yeah, he made so many game changing plays, like when we needed 350 00:24:45.920 --> 00:24:49.359 a plate, he came through fourth man. He yeah, he was the 351 00:24:49.400 --> 00:24:56.640 man, shout out Marcus. So all right, man, so all right. 352 00:24:56.759 --> 00:25:02.039 So another thing I'd like to talk about is our or rookie or undrafted 353 00:25:02.079 --> 00:25:07.359 free agents. You know, there's been a lot of talk about the lack 354 00:25:07.400 --> 00:25:11.319 of wide receiver that we didn't get. Um, you know, we we 355 00:25:11.440 --> 00:25:17.519 ended up picking up the Jacob Copeland made a big statement on Twitter this week. 356 00:25:17.559 --> 00:25:18.440 I don't know if you saw that or not, but he said, 357 00:25:18.640 --> 00:25:23.559 uh, you know, thirty two teams passed on him and there was I 358 00:25:23.599 --> 00:25:27.200 can't remember exactly what he said, thirty nine or or fifty three or something 359 00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:30.480 like that. I don't know. He named off exactly how many wide receivers 360 00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.279 were drafted in the draft, and he said, I'm gonna make sure and 361 00:25:33.400 --> 00:25:38.799 keep every one of them his name wrote down. Okay, I like that 362 00:25:38.880 --> 00:25:42.200 kind of confidence. May come weeded, that's what that's that's what we need 363 00:25:42.200 --> 00:25:48.599 in Tennessee. May we need confidence from a wide receivers. That's the same 364 00:25:48.680 --> 00:25:52.039 kind of confidence A. J. Brown had. Hopefully he can't make it, 365 00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:55.440 I mean transition, make show it on the field. Yeah. Yeah, 366 00:25:55.519 --> 00:25:57.240 maybe he can give a little bit off to Burks, although Burkes has 367 00:25:57.240 --> 00:26:00.720 it too well. He showed it when he caught that ball. What's that 368 00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:03.920 on the jack? No, it wasn't on the Jaguars, it was on 369 00:26:03.279 --> 00:26:12.599 Green Bay. Turn around around, told him he was too small. I 370 00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:17.480 like that, and I get I get hype when I see our receivers. 371 00:26:17.519 --> 00:26:22.039 You know, you know, oh, some confidence out because tights Man, 372 00:26:22.079 --> 00:26:26.079 you know, we've been cursed that wide receiver the whole time we've been in 373 00:26:26.200 --> 00:26:27.960 Nashville. And then we do the A. J. Brown trade, so 374 00:26:29.319 --> 00:26:32.440 we you know, we're gonna continue to curse. So we just need somebody 375 00:26:32.480 --> 00:26:36.759 to break that. Hopefully trailing Birds have a breakout season this year. I 376 00:26:36.759 --> 00:26:40.359 got. I'm expecting a lot from that guy. Yeah. Well, he 377 00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:44.160 says he's looking good. No, tas Man. They say he's breathing better, 378 00:26:44.279 --> 00:26:48.119 he's moving faster, he looked stronger, got the asthma under control. 379 00:26:48.119 --> 00:26:52.599 Yeah. He stayed in Nashville all year round so he could get kind of 380 00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:56.559 acclimated to her awful humidity. Because I don't. I don't. Anybody who 381 00:26:56.599 --> 00:27:03.039 doesn't live in Tennessee doesn't understand the levels unless you live in Mississippi or Louisiana 382 00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:10.200 or Alabama, then you might understand. Yeah, yeah, southeastern area anywhere. 383 00:27:11.240 --> 00:27:14.440 If you if you never experienced, I'm I'm must trying to describe it 384 00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:18.480 for you. It's like it you go outside and it's not that hot, 385 00:27:19.000 --> 00:27:22.599 but for some reason, it suffocates you, like you can't breathe. It 386 00:27:22.720 --> 00:27:27.200 almost like you can't even take a deep breath. It's like you or something. 387 00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:30.720 Yeah, and that's pure humidity. It's nothing to do with the heat. 388 00:27:32.200 --> 00:27:36.640 Humidity, humidity, humidity. I'm not that oh man. Let me 389 00:27:36.680 --> 00:27:40.160 tell you that on summer nights, I can go out on my back porch 390 00:27:40.519 --> 00:27:45.000 and flip my light on and you can literally take your hand and wave it 391 00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:48.759 through the air like that and you can see the little water molecules like float 392 00:27:48.839 --> 00:27:55.440 around, and shit, it is amazingly moist, especially here in the valley. 393 00:27:55.759 --> 00:27:57.759 Oh yeah, but I can believe it. I can believe it. 394 00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:04.359 But another big uf DA I want to talk about is the uh what is 395 00:28:04.359 --> 00:28:08.000 that kid's name? Man? I had it, I have it here, 396 00:28:10.200 --> 00:28:15.240 I ain't got to hear. It's the defensive end from Paris State, big 397 00:28:15.319 --> 00:28:18.680 boy. Yeah, six or six foot eight, I think, or something 398 00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:22.839 like that moves like a well, he moves a little slow, or at 399 00:28:22.880 --> 00:28:26.640 least he did it to combine. But I don't know if you saw that 400 00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:29.640 Ota video, but he didn't look like he was moving too slow to me, 401 00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:32.880 Yeah, look like he was moving good and fast. And he popped 402 00:28:32.880 --> 00:28:37.039 the bag like, oh my god. But there is a very very specific 403 00:28:37.119 --> 00:28:40.359 video I want to talk to you about. I don't know if you got 404 00:28:40.400 --> 00:28:44.920 to see it or not. But and I'll go deeper into one of my 405 00:28:45.039 --> 00:28:52.039 draft picks. But the the Scronsky he's coming off of play, it was 406 00:28:52.079 --> 00:28:56.119 real early. It was like two weeks ago. He comes off of play, 407 00:28:56.480 --> 00:29:00.160 blows the dude up boo. Yeah, knock him on is Yeah, 408 00:29:00.319 --> 00:29:06.759 knocked him out. You know who that was? Who was that? That's 409 00:29:06.759 --> 00:29:10.599 the kid from Maryland that we drafted in the fifth round. The offensive tackle. 410 00:29:11.279 --> 00:29:17.119 Really that's that's not good. That's I mean, I don't know. 411 00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:21.960 It might mean that Skroski is the real deal, or it might mean that 412 00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:27.759 the kid from Maryland just he not great. The last a good point, 413 00:29:29.359 --> 00:29:30.799 good point. As long as they treat him like a number one, he 414 00:29:30.880 --> 00:29:34.200 will produce yea yeah, yeah, as long as they get him the ball. 415 00:29:36.079 --> 00:29:40.240 Yeah. But the way I'll take that that hit is uh, you 416 00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:41.960 know, they say the one of the things I wanted to talk about was 417 00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:48.240 that kid from Maryland. He apparently had some character issues or maybe some workout 418 00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:51.319 issues. He gained some weight in between the combine and his pro day, 419 00:29:51.400 --> 00:29:53.279 and I didn't really like to pick. I didn't think he really fit with 420 00:29:53.319 --> 00:29:56.839 what the Titans like to do with their players. But then when I saw 421 00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:00.880 that video, it really con learned for me that what I already thought was 422 00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:06.720 true. But secondly, it confirmed for me that you know, I'm a 423 00:30:06.799 --> 00:30:11.119 coach and our coach a little nine to eleven year olds in city league. 424 00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:14.480 Yeah, and I tell them all the time, I say, you know, 425 00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:17.240 we don't have to win. We don't have to you know, effort, 426 00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:18.960 that's what I grade you, one hundred percent effort. I want to 427 00:30:18.960 --> 00:30:22.119 see effort in practice. I want to see effort on the field. Give 428 00:30:22.160 --> 00:30:27.920 me effort all the time. And that's what you get when you get one 429 00:30:27.960 --> 00:30:33.079 guy who wants to give you one hundred percent effort on every practice and every 430 00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:36.799 play and a guy who wants to take a couple of plays off or whatever. 431 00:30:36.920 --> 00:30:40.079 You know, that's what happens when you take a playoff. Somebody who's 432 00:30:40.119 --> 00:30:44.400 not taking a playoff takes you off, take knock you off your damn feet. 433 00:30:45.160 --> 00:30:48.920 Yeah. Hey, And like I said, man, I got big 434 00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:52.279 hopes with Scronsky tool Man because I I can't say I was a big Taylor 435 00:30:52.319 --> 00:30:56.680 Little One fan, but I like what Taylor Little One brought to our offensive 436 00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:59.480 line. You know, the swad girl, you know, the the you 437 00:30:59.519 --> 00:31:02.279 know they call I'm a fake tough guy, but I like the you know, 438 00:31:02.319 --> 00:31:04.720 the tough guy attitude. Like we need that even though they say you 439 00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:07.880 used to go out there and say crazy stuff. Man, we need that 440 00:31:08.079 --> 00:31:11.000 nastiness back. Man. We got the biggest running back in the NFL. 441 00:31:11.319 --> 00:31:19.039 We need to be pushing people off that lang hole. So hopefully contribute to 442 00:31:19.119 --> 00:31:23.880 that knocking people off that ball, creating holes for Derek Hanster. Shout out 443 00:31:23.920 --> 00:31:27.359 to Peter Storrosky, Man, I hope I could hope with that eleven pick 444 00:31:27.400 --> 00:31:33.559 we made the right pick the two with Yeah, I really think we did, 445 00:31:33.599 --> 00:31:37.319 man, I mean I honestly do. Uh And a lot of people 446 00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:41.160 are debating whether he's gonna start a tackle or guard, and I think he 447 00:31:41.279 --> 00:31:45.200 started at guard. In my opinion. Let let Andre Dillard get a shot 448 00:31:45.200 --> 00:31:51.200 at And I mean, besides, I don't know if you saw the there 449 00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:55.359 was some more OTA practices where they were showing Ryan Tannehill throwing the ball. 450 00:31:55.720 --> 00:32:00.279 They showed one angle and it was Dillard and Scronsky, and then they showed 451 00:32:00.319 --> 00:32:07.640 another angle and it was Petite Frere and brun School or brun Skill and then, 452 00:32:07.880 --> 00:32:10.720 uh, I don't know how you say his name. I'm horrible with 453 00:32:10.839 --> 00:32:15.559 names, y'all. Watch this enough, y'all see I'm terrible with names. 454 00:32:15.319 --> 00:32:21.640 School. Yeah, that's it, brun School, run skill, run skill 455 00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:25.359 whatever. All right. Uh, and we know Aaron Brewer's starting the center. 456 00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:30.599 You don't pay somebody four million dollars not to start, so pretty much, 457 00:32:30.599 --> 00:32:34.799 there's your offensive line right there, and I love it. I think 458 00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:37.720 I think if they can jail, like you said, I think we've got 459 00:32:37.720 --> 00:32:44.400 a huge improvement on our offensive line. We just improved so much just by 460 00:32:44.599 --> 00:32:50.319 letting Dennis Daily go. We just got ten times better by letting that bomb 461 00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:54.599 go. Addition by subtraction, Man, get him out of here. Thank 462 00:32:54.720 --> 00:32:59.519 god. I'm loving our offensive line right now. Hopefully you know them, 463 00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:01.880 young guys. You know I want to see Petite Fred get a little better 464 00:33:01.920 --> 00:33:05.920 too. I know, Aaron Brewer, we're gonna have a first off. 465 00:33:06.039 --> 00:33:07.440 I'm gonna say we're gonna miss Being Jones. Man, that was one of 466 00:33:07.480 --> 00:33:13.000 my favorite Titans. Due was a real real baller. Man, I'm gonna 467 00:33:13.000 --> 00:33:17.519 miss Ben Jones, but I feel I'm confident Aaron Brewer coming down snapped that 468 00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.960 ball to Tanny or Will Levis, whoever it's gonna be. I'm hoping it's 469 00:33:21.960 --> 00:33:24.920 Tanny though, but I think I think Brewer can do his thing. And 470 00:33:24.920 --> 00:33:29.480 then you got those young guys on the left side. I'm feeling good about 471 00:33:29.519 --> 00:33:31.160 it. Man. That was the worst part of our team last year. 472 00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:37.319 I'm loving where we had with it now. I love I was at first, 473 00:33:37.359 --> 00:33:40.839 I was a little weary of the the Scronsky pick. But I'm like 474 00:33:42.079 --> 00:33:45.759 every every week I'm I'm you know, I'm feeling better about it and I'm 475 00:33:45.759 --> 00:33:51.400 loving what we did. Shout out the uh parth on man. I like 476 00:33:51.559 --> 00:33:53.839 the draft overall. Man. You know a lot of people are we have 477 00:33:53.960 --> 00:33:58.559 the worst off season? You know, I've seen that list come out a 478 00:33:58.559 --> 00:34:01.400 couple of times about teams who had the worst off season. They got us 479 00:34:01.440 --> 00:34:07.079 thirty two. So man, but hey, they never give us respect anyway, 480 00:34:07.200 --> 00:34:12.599 so we should. You shouldn't expect less. Let's be honest. The 481 00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.920 Titans played better when they're expected to be bad. Yeah, so yeah, 482 00:34:16.079 --> 00:34:21.280 I keep hating everybody. Everybody bring all that negative energy so we can suck 483 00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:23.400 it all up and then beat y'all up with it, because that's pretty much 484 00:34:23.440 --> 00:34:29.199 what we do. Troll us on Facebook, get in the comments. We 485 00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:32.199 bringing it this year. I feel good about that officer line. I feel 486 00:34:32.480 --> 00:34:44.039 I feel good about I feel good about Spears, Spears, Spears liking him 487 00:34:44.079 --> 00:34:46.519 like we all. I you know, I'm liking what they comparing them to 488 00:34:46.599 --> 00:34:51.960 what they saying he's doing when he catching the ball. We got cheek coming 489 00:34:52.039 --> 00:34:59.800 back, Birds coming back, Kyle Phillips coming back. Hey, we're gonna 490 00:35:00.039 --> 00:35:02.519 say, yeah, I think people are, you know, they're expecting us. 491 00:35:02.119 --> 00:35:06.360 I think, let's see, I think I've seen four or five different 492 00:35:06.599 --> 00:35:14.840 um expectations or projections or whatever that say five or six wins total, and 493 00:35:14.920 --> 00:35:17.400 for the Titans, I mean, for me, anything less than and for 494 00:35:17.519 --> 00:35:22.320 me, I just got done saying just a few minutes ago that are we're 495 00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:27.679 better than we were last year? So unless there's like a crazy injury bug 496 00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:31.519 like there was last year, then I think we should be better than we 497 00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:36.599 were last year. So anything less than seven wins is a disappointment. So 498 00:35:36.719 --> 00:35:38.800 I don't know where they're getting five and six wins at. You know, 499 00:35:38.840 --> 00:35:44.480 we're eight at least that's our basement. And then then we're looking at more 500 00:35:44.519 --> 00:35:47.039 like ten to eleven wins somewhere running there. That that's my prediction anyway, 501 00:35:47.039 --> 00:35:52.159 ten to eleven wins. Honestly, I can't even say that high. Honestly, 502 00:35:53.159 --> 00:36:00.599 I say, I say we're going to be around at eight nine range. 503 00:36:00.400 --> 00:36:04.960 I'm not expecting a lot from a lot of teams in our division. 504 00:36:05.480 --> 00:36:08.400 You know, everybody's gonna with the rookie quarterbacks. I don't see nobody just 505 00:36:08.519 --> 00:36:13.400 breaking out right now. On paper, Jacksonville the best team in the division. 506 00:36:13.480 --> 00:36:15.840 That's you know, everybody's you know, yeah, yeah, on paper, 507 00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:23.440 Jackson's exactly. But we know they're not much better than us, if 508 00:36:23.519 --> 00:36:30.159 any if it wasn't for a bull b as fumble call last year, we 509 00:36:30.280 --> 00:36:35.039 beat them in Jacksonville and we win the division. But that's another store for 510 00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:38.199 another thing. That's a guy we picked up like three weeks ago and the 511 00:36:38.360 --> 00:36:45.239 trash offensive line and like half backups on the defense. I mean, come 512 00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:47.679 on, man, that wasn't even a game. Everybody talks about that. 513 00:36:47.800 --> 00:36:52.559 You know they're gonna run the yet whatever. All right, we'll see this 514 00:36:52.639 --> 00:36:55.119 year. Oh y'all Jaguarant fans, take notice right now, if you're watching, 515 00:36:55.199 --> 00:37:00.599 take notice. Y'all are gonna get eight this year? Yeah? Yeah, 516 00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:02.079 And I mean y'all think they got. They say they got the best 517 00:37:02.159 --> 00:37:07.360 quarterback into division, which may be true. I mean, uh, but 518 00:37:07.840 --> 00:37:12.480 that's not gonna just simply win y'all games. I like that we got Art 519 00:37:12.519 --> 00:37:16.159 and Key from y'all. I like uh, I like him. I'm liking 520 00:37:16.199 --> 00:37:20.039 what we got in Tennessee, and I'm feeling good about it. It's a 521 00:37:20.039 --> 00:37:22.000 lot of people that's skeptical about it, what we got, what we've done, 522 00:37:22.079 --> 00:37:27.039 But I'm here to tell you, man, Flame Douglas, I'm feeling 523 00:37:27.039 --> 00:37:30.119 good. I'm feeling good about the offense. I'm feeling I'm feeling good about 524 00:37:30.159 --> 00:37:34.599 the defense. What we need to talk about this. Kevin Bayer not being 525 00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:37.119 an eight ota is like, is that a big deal or small deal to 526 00:37:37.239 --> 00:37:42.679 you? How you feel about that? Max? I kind of. I 527 00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:45.599 mean, I see why everybody freaking out about it, you know, I 528 00:37:45.719 --> 00:37:49.599 can understand. But to me, it's not a big deal. If he 529 00:37:49.679 --> 00:37:52.800 don't come in for training camp, then it's a big deal. I mean, 530 00:37:52.920 --> 00:37:55.320 but I have heard that they're trying to groom a mighty hooker to take 531 00:37:55.360 --> 00:38:02.679 his spot, which you know I've heard. I've heard the same thing. 532 00:38:02.840 --> 00:38:06.599 I've heard that groom and Molden. I've heard that, uh, you know, 533 00:38:06.719 --> 00:38:10.400 he's yeah, he's getting time at uh at safety. And Elijah Molden 534 00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:15.079 honestly is built better as a safety. I mean, the way they use 535 00:38:15.199 --> 00:38:20.320 him right now as a slot corner, they really only use him on first 536 00:38:20.360 --> 00:38:22.800 and second down anyway, and he's really just like an extra safety anyway. 537 00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:28.400 So to be honest, having him as a safety is a pretty good idea. 538 00:38:28.800 --> 00:38:31.920 Um. So I don't really, I don't really Again, I don't. 539 00:38:32.920 --> 00:38:37.079 It didn't really bother me that much. It didn't really freak me out 540 00:38:37.159 --> 00:38:40.079 or anything, because I don't think they're necessarily grooming him to take his place. 541 00:38:42.360 --> 00:38:46.480 If anything, I think they're just uh insurance playing. Maybe. I 542 00:38:46.559 --> 00:38:50.559 mean that, you know that might be true, you know, in case, 543 00:38:50.679 --> 00:38:53.800 you know, kb's more upset than we think he is, and you 544 00:38:53.880 --> 00:38:58.239 know he wants a new contractor he's not coming back round. But I don't 545 00:38:58.239 --> 00:39:01.840 see KB doing that. I mean, I like KB character. K B 546 00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:05.760 will be out there when it's time to play for Sean. Yeah, I 547 00:39:05.880 --> 00:39:09.000 think honestly, I think he's I think if anything, uh that's that you 548 00:39:09.079 --> 00:39:12.559 know you want to say, is coming out of this, that that he's 549 00:39:12.639 --> 00:39:15.960 trying to make a statement. And that's basically you know, remember who I 550 00:39:16.079 --> 00:39:23.639 am. I'm brow Yeah, I intercept I picked people off man, That's 551 00:39:23.840 --> 00:39:28.119 right. Yeah, and that's all I've been doing since I've been here, 552 00:39:28.320 --> 00:39:31.559 so exactly. Yeah, number one, I think for number one or at 553 00:39:31.639 --> 00:39:37.719 least top three in the league. I know that he might feel a little 554 00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:39.840 disrespected about Tights asking him to take a pay could. I mean, I 555 00:39:39.960 --> 00:39:43.639 feel him though, you know what I'm saying, Like, after all I've 556 00:39:43.760 --> 00:39:46.119 done, I've been out there, then then every snap I ain't been hurt, 557 00:39:46.800 --> 00:39:52.199 like y'all don't ask me and y'all paying Ryan Tenninghill all this damn money. 558 00:39:52.199 --> 00:39:55.920 I kind of feel him a little bit like, yeah, no statement, 559 00:39:57.039 --> 00:39:59.679 KB, but you know, when it's time to play Titan football, 560 00:39:59.800 --> 00:40:02.119 we need you out there. We need you in that backfield. We need 561 00:40:02.159 --> 00:40:05.920 you. We need you to, you know, flying around making plays. 562 00:40:06.280 --> 00:40:09.360 So you know, if it's a small chance KBC this. You know hander 563 00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:13.239 your business, big dog. I know you. You know, married all 564 00:40:13.280 --> 00:40:15.760 that hand of your business. But when it's time to play football, come 565 00:40:15.840 --> 00:40:20.039 on back to Baptist. You know what I mean, that's true, and 566 00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:22.360 get get it on, man, because you know we can't run this ship, 567 00:40:23.159 --> 00:40:27.079 y'all. Y'all can go ahead and pretty much mark this down. If 568 00:40:27.119 --> 00:40:29.920 he shows up for camp or if I mean if excuse me, if he 569 00:40:30.000 --> 00:40:32.079 don't show up for camp, they probably ain't gonna be on our roster this 570 00:40:32.199 --> 00:40:37.679 year. And that makes me a Titan. I'm not gonna lie. We 571 00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:44.239 can't. Yeah, we really can't afford to lose nobody right now. We 572 00:40:44.400 --> 00:40:49.480 need we need everybody we can keep, especially good players like Heybe. We 573 00:40:49.599 --> 00:40:52.559 need to keep players like that. So that's why a part of me feel 574 00:40:52.639 --> 00:40:55.280 like he's gonna be out there. Man. That dude love football. Man, 575 00:40:57.000 --> 00:41:00.360 he loved football. He love like raping him. Say he loved ball, 576 00:41:00.360 --> 00:41:05.000 somebody the little ball. So he'll be out there. Yeah, and 577 00:41:05.079 --> 00:41:08.079 then then you know, Morocco I was literally just about to say this that 578 00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:12.559 Grabel had a conversation with them, said he saw him out on the golfield 579 00:41:12.559 --> 00:41:16.320 and said everything was fine. Everybody needs calmed down. But you also know 580 00:41:17.039 --> 00:41:22.159 titans or tight lips, they don't talk about nothing until it happens. Well, 581 00:41:22.239 --> 00:41:24.000 I think the head coach didn't even know his star player was getting traded 582 00:41:24.079 --> 00:41:30.119 until it happened, because you could tell man in that video. You watch 583 00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:36.239 that video, Mike grabels bad. Dude, He's like he had to he 584 00:41:36.400 --> 00:41:39.599 had to walk off and he choked out. Yeah, yeah, he was 585 00:41:39.639 --> 00:41:45.000 about to bust him up. And you know at the press conference when you 586 00:41:45.039 --> 00:41:49.440 saw him walk off and they went like this, That's that's how you know 587 00:41:49.519 --> 00:41:52.480 it was bad. It was like, oh shit, they just went separate 588 00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:59.000 ways. That's Morocco blur up a good point though, he's talking about Fulton. 589 00:41:59.559 --> 00:42:02.400 Yeah uh they said Titans and folds and not in a good space right 590 00:42:02.440 --> 00:42:06.920 now. He don't like how how Rabel called him out on them soft tissue 591 00:42:06.960 --> 00:42:14.719 injuries man, And well again, go ahead, go ahead, I'm gonna 592 00:42:14.719 --> 00:42:16.840 see I started quarterback. We need you on that field, man, So 593 00:42:17.280 --> 00:42:21.639 like you gotta get out your feelings to get in your bag. Dog. 594 00:42:21.760 --> 00:42:23.800 We need you out there. You know, you see how A. J. 595 00:42:23.960 --> 00:42:28.320 Brown done you last year? Buddy. Come on now we need you 596 00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:31.960 out there, bro, come so get it together before we need you. 597 00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:38.239 I mean, no, we need, we need, we need finally to 598 00:42:38.760 --> 00:42:45.119 finally get in your bag, buddy, because that's the one I wanted to 599 00:42:45.239 --> 00:42:49.960 talk about. Now, as far as Fulton goes man, I'm not again, 600 00:42:50.239 --> 00:42:53.360 I know, I'm mister. Everybody calmed down. Everything's fine, Everything's 601 00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:58.320 gonna be fine. But that's because that's what I truly believe. I truly 602 00:42:58.400 --> 00:43:01.519 believe that Fulton. I mean, you know, let's say this, all 603 00:43:01.599 --> 00:43:05.239 right, Let's try to look at it from his perspective. All right, 604 00:43:05.400 --> 00:43:09.719 he's a player. His coach just called him out basically on national a national 605 00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:14.519 stage and said, this guy ain't preparing right, he ain't doing the right 606 00:43:14.639 --> 00:43:20.480 things. So what's he doing. He's working with the NBA coach. Now 607 00:43:20.679 --> 00:43:24.480 that seems a little odd to me, but obviously he's trying something different. 608 00:43:24.760 --> 00:43:29.440 And to me, that at least says he's trying. And I don't know, 609 00:43:29.760 --> 00:43:31.440 I personally I look at it as a good thing. A lot of 610 00:43:31.480 --> 00:43:35.079 people are looking at it as a negative. I think it's a positive. 611 00:43:35.159 --> 00:43:38.360 I think he's trying to actually get himself right. I mean, most people 612 00:43:38.440 --> 00:43:42.840 don't realize that Derrick Kenry usually didn't come to OTA's. I mean, this 613 00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:45.000 year he was there and it was actually a big story because he's usually not 614 00:43:45.719 --> 00:43:51.559 because he's always working out doing his own thing. So the people that didn't 615 00:43:51.559 --> 00:43:55.079 show up, I don't think it's that big of a deal, except for 616 00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:13.000 Caleb Farley. Ye now that you know you can't Yeah, sure, yeah 617 00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:15.199 you don't. You don't show up. I mean, you don't have two 618 00:44:15.320 --> 00:44:20.880 crappy seasons where you're injured. You know, you look like you're not good 619 00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:23.320 enough when you are on the field. Uh, you know, and then 620 00:44:23.519 --> 00:44:27.239 and you and you're built for it. I mean, you're you got God 621 00:44:27.360 --> 00:44:30.719 gifted body to go out there and do exactly what you're built to do. 622 00:44:31.039 --> 00:44:35.280 Man, man, I'm telling you got speed and everything. Like, I 623 00:44:35.480 --> 00:44:39.199 really don't, I really don't understand what's going on with Kayla Farley. You 624 00:44:39.239 --> 00:44:43.760 know, the Titans. I'm not gonna tell us enough to let us know. 625 00:44:43.960 --> 00:44:46.880 I really didn't understand last year when he just wasn't playing but he was 626 00:44:47.000 --> 00:44:52.920 dressing out. I'm like what is going on with this dude? But well, 627 00:44:52.960 --> 00:44:58.159 honestly, yeah, I think I think I think Rabel saw early signs 628 00:44:58.199 --> 00:45:00.440 of what we're seeing right now, you know, him not showing up to 629 00:45:00.519 --> 00:45:07.159 OTA's you know, I mean, OTAs are exactly that they're they're they're voluntary. 630 00:45:07.440 --> 00:45:12.760 But if you notice, ninety percent of the Titans were there, there 631 00:45:12.920 --> 00:45:17.880 was only like, I think three healthy Titans that weren't there, and that's 632 00:45:17.960 --> 00:45:22.599 Caleb Farley, Christen Fulton, and Kevin Byrn. But other than those three, 633 00:45:22.880 --> 00:45:27.440 all the other people that weren't there are injured or you know, they 634 00:45:27.559 --> 00:45:30.400 have they have a reason, they're rehabbing or something like that's going on. 635 00:45:30.159 --> 00:45:34.880 So the fact that those are the only three that didn't show up, the 636 00:45:35.000 --> 00:45:37.840 other two guys are clearly working out. They've got videos of it out on 637 00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:43.960 Twitter right now. What's Caleb Farley doing on Twitter? Nothing? I haven't 638 00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:46.559 seen nothing from Caleb Farley on Twitter. If anybody has, let me know, 639 00:45:46.760 --> 00:45:49.559 you know what I mean, I'd love to I'd love to see what 640 00:45:49.719 --> 00:45:55.760 Caleb Farley's workouts look like. It's thank you everybody. Remember that life shares 641 00:45:57.440 --> 00:46:00.840 all that helps goes a long way. Um, all right, man, 642 00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:07.239 I think we're about ready to wrap up. Is there anything else you would 643 00:46:07.280 --> 00:46:13.639 like to say or any topic you'd like to touch on before we let me 644 00:46:13.800 --> 00:46:15.960 see what that guy.
