WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:01.439
<v Speaker 1>We can go right out of the Kaway Commons Perl

2
00:00:01.520 --> 00:00:03.720
<v Speaker 1>hotline and bring on our friend romy Bean.

3
00:00:03.799 --> 00:00:05.759
<v Speaker 2>Romy How you doing, guys.

4
00:00:05.839 --> 00:00:09.240
<v Speaker 3>I'm doing well, uh, you know, but not some fires.

5
00:00:09.279 --> 00:00:09.679
<v Speaker 3>But we're good.

6
00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:12.679
<v Speaker 2>We're good now, Yes, firefighter romy Bean on the show.

7
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:12.880
<v Speaker 3>Now.

8
00:00:14.320 --> 00:00:16.120
<v Speaker 2>I know it's good to hear your voice.

9
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:16.480
<v Speaker 4>You know.

10
00:00:16.480 --> 00:00:18.600
<v Speaker 1>Obviously we had to snapoo earlier, but you know how

11
00:00:18.640 --> 00:00:21.359
<v Speaker 1>it is. We we we are ready to roll. We

12
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.640
<v Speaker 1>were talking a little bit earlier about uh, just sports

13
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:27.480
<v Speaker 1>in Colorado over the over the weekend, and yeah, I

14
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:28.559
<v Speaker 1>was a bit of a disappointment.

15
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:30.519
<v Speaker 2>We'll start to see you a little bit.

16
00:00:31.199 --> 00:00:34.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, getting sort of shelaxed there by uh the

17
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Nebraska Cornhuskers, which I know the rivalry runs deep, and

18
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:40.200
<v Speaker 1>that's got to feel a little worse for Colorado fans.

19
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:42.880
<v Speaker 2>But is it is?

20
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:46.920
<v Speaker 1>Is Colorado souring on Coach Prime because the media coverage

21
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:50.840
<v Speaker 1>locally feels like it has taken a turn recently. I

22
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:53.560
<v Speaker 1>don't know if that's just me observing it that way,

23
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:55.920
<v Speaker 1>or if that's the way that it's that it's really gone.

24
00:00:57.079 --> 00:00:57.240
<v Speaker 5>You know.

25
00:00:57.479 --> 00:00:58.880
<v Speaker 3>I think it's interesting.

26
00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.600
<v Speaker 6>I think there's they say there was a lot that

27
00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 6>went on in the off season that had a lot

28
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:05.239
<v Speaker 6>of people.

29
00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:08.799
<v Speaker 3>Kind of taking one side or another with the media situation.

30
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:11.319
<v Speaker 3>But I think the team's under such.

31
00:01:11.120 --> 00:01:13.200
<v Speaker 5>A heavy microscope and they think what happened in the

32
00:01:13.239 --> 00:01:15.480
<v Speaker 5>Nebraska game is where.

33
00:01:15.359 --> 00:01:18.200
<v Speaker 7>Some people started to feel like a lot of the

34
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:20.920
<v Speaker 7>issues that were issued last year, you went into the portal,

35
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:23.159
<v Speaker 7>you got all these new guys, but they appear to

36
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:24.280
<v Speaker 7>be similar issues.

37
00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:26.640
<v Speaker 3>And I think that is a thing where people now

38
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:29.599
<v Speaker 3>I think the verdict still out, have a lot of questions,

39
00:01:29.840 --> 00:01:32.719
<v Speaker 3>but they're wondering, right, you brought into all these new.

40
00:01:32.599 --> 00:01:34.760
<v Speaker 5>Alignment a lot of new players, and yet.

41
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:37.879
<v Speaker 3>It seems like a lot of the same problems are peasants.

42
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:40.799
<v Speaker 3>And that is something that I think is it is

43
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:42.400
<v Speaker 3>starting to share to be concerning.

44
00:01:42.439 --> 00:01:45.200
<v Speaker 5>You look at the offensive line for example, right, the

45
00:01:45.239 --> 00:01:46.200
<v Speaker 5>offensive line is.

46
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:48.439
<v Speaker 3>You brought up in a whole bunch of new guys,

47
00:01:48.480 --> 00:01:51.640
<v Speaker 3>but it's still not the same offensive line problems.

48
00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.239
<v Speaker 7>And so I think it's all gone on with the

49
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:56.680
<v Speaker 7>Deoganders experiment.

50
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:58.040
<v Speaker 3>Right, he's trying to do it the way.

51
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.480
<v Speaker 5>Nobody's done it, but something like an offense of blind

52
00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 5>you got to slow cook him, right, and he's.

53
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:05.879
<v Speaker 3>Trying to microwave it and I think people are maybe

54
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:07.480
<v Speaker 3>do have some doubts can it work?

55
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:10.240
<v Speaker 4>Bro I mean when you look at the fact that

56
00:02:10.599 --> 00:02:12.639
<v Speaker 4>you know, CEEU for back to back weeks will be

57
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:16.439
<v Speaker 4>on the road in Houston territory again. Last week they

58
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:20.039
<v Speaker 4>were in Nebraska. This week they're planned against rival CSU.

59
00:02:20.719 --> 00:02:23.879
<v Speaker 4>What are you expecting in this rivalry game? Because last year,

60
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 4>remember there was a lot of talking back and forth

61
00:02:27.599 --> 00:02:29.599
<v Speaker 4>and there was an issue with coach prom and his

62
00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:32.719
<v Speaker 4>eyewear and his interviews. Do you think some of that

63
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:36.960
<v Speaker 4>be from last year has smolder enough to trickle into

64
00:02:37.039 --> 00:02:37.919
<v Speaker 4>this Saturday's game.

65
00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:40.719
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I think that there is always heat, There

66
00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:44.479
<v Speaker 5>is always tension with this rivalry. Gene Norvel talked today

67
00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:46.080
<v Speaker 5>and he certainly tried to play it down.

68
00:02:46.120 --> 00:02:49.199
<v Speaker 3>He didn't really talk about anything from last year. But

69
00:02:49.319 --> 00:02:50.639
<v Speaker 3>when you look at the heat.

70
00:02:50.439 --> 00:02:53.080
<v Speaker 2>Of the rivalry in general, it's always been hot.

71
00:02:53.159 --> 00:02:56.039
<v Speaker 3>It's always been heated. It's one of those things that, honestly,

72
00:02:56.120 --> 00:02:56.719
<v Speaker 3>it feels like.

73
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:01.360
<v Speaker 5>It's always meant a little more to the rail than

74
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:03.599
<v Speaker 5>it has to see you, you know, kind of.

75
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:06.319
<v Speaker 7>Historically if you look at it. But I think it's

76
00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:09.840
<v Speaker 7>kind of a different layer going into this year. First

77
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:12.360
<v Speaker 7>of all the first I've been Fort Collins in nineteen ninety.

78
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Six, which is so it's going to be wild. But

79
00:03:14.840 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 3>there's a lot of anger because there's extra stuff that

80
00:03:17.240 --> 00:03:18.080
<v Speaker 3>happened last year.

81
00:03:18.319 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 7>I think on both sides, and along with many people,

82
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:23.120
<v Speaker 7>I will tell you that based on.

83
00:03:23.240 --> 00:03:27.400
<v Speaker 3>My social media comments, nobody wants you on Tendors to fail.

84
00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:29.960
<v Speaker 7>More than ramspans. So there is added to.

85
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:31.039
<v Speaker 2>The rivalry this year.

86
00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:34.000
<v Speaker 3>Whether they admit it or not, it is more intense

87
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.080
<v Speaker 3>and so it's going to be heated. It's going to

88
00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:41.560
<v Speaker 3>be crazy, and it's I mean, that's how rivalry should

89
00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:43.439
<v Speaker 3>be though, right they should bring a lot of.

90
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.680
<v Speaker 5>I don't want to say animosity all that stuff, but

91
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:49.719
<v Speaker 5>I do think there's a little bit added in with

92
00:03:49.879 --> 00:03:50.960
<v Speaker 5>the state.

93
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:51.319
<v Speaker 7>Of the program.

94
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:57.240
<v Speaker 1>Roby being from CBS, roly how big a letdown was

95
00:03:57.280 --> 00:03:59.680
<v Speaker 1>the Bonis premiere because there was a lot of hype

96
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:02.520
<v Speaker 1>that was surrounding that, and I, you know, I felt

97
00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:04.759
<v Speaker 1>bad for it because the hype had reached a crescendo

98
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:07.719
<v Speaker 1>based on some preseason games which they'd scheme things up

99
00:04:07.759 --> 00:04:10.400
<v Speaker 1>with the starters against backups from other teams and all.

100
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:10.960
<v Speaker 2>That kind of stuff.

101
00:04:11.159 --> 00:04:12.879
<v Speaker 1>I felt bad because I didn't think that Bowl was

102
00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:16.480
<v Speaker 1>going to get a fair shake based on the amount

103
00:04:16.519 --> 00:04:17.839
<v Speaker 1>of hype that has come into this thing.

104
00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:19.480
<v Speaker 2>Now we've seen the first game out there.

105
00:04:20.639 --> 00:04:22.560
<v Speaker 1>Was it as bad or as big a disappointment as

106
00:04:22.560 --> 00:04:24.240
<v Speaker 1>people making it out to be or is this just

107
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:26.399
<v Speaker 1>a byproduct of the preseason hype?

108
00:04:27.439 --> 00:04:29.399
<v Speaker 3>You know, it's so funny. I'm not disappointed.

109
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:31.600
<v Speaker 7>But what I think it is is you hit the nail.

110
00:04:31.480 --> 00:04:31.839
<v Speaker 5>On the head.

111
00:04:31.959 --> 00:04:35.600
<v Speaker 7>The expectations were way too high, Like all of a sudden,

112
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:38.759
<v Speaker 7>he's going to run out and he's going to be incredible.

113
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 5>From the jump, and it didn't matter that he played against.

114
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.000
<v Speaker 3>Twos and threes and first whatever reason.

115
00:04:43.839 --> 00:04:44.399
<v Speaker 1>The hype got.

116
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:47.639
<v Speaker 3>You know, maybe I think it's just the hope of everything.

117
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.120
<v Speaker 5>That franspires the last eight years for Broncos fans.

118
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:51.519
<v Speaker 3>They got so excited.

119
00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:53.800
<v Speaker 6>I think that this man is the chosen one.

120
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:56.079
<v Speaker 2>That then then for him to come out.

121
00:04:56.240 --> 00:04:59.480
<v Speaker 5>What I expected to be a rookie performance, among other things,

122
00:04:59.519 --> 00:05:03.399
<v Speaker 5>in Sea of all places, which is hard for any

123
00:05:03.480 --> 00:05:05.240
<v Speaker 5>quarterback to play, let alone a rookie.

124
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:07.079
<v Speaker 7>You even Baul went into a thing.

125
00:05:07.120 --> 00:05:09.680
<v Speaker 5>I played in loud places, not like that, right, There

126
00:05:09.800 --> 00:05:13.319
<v Speaker 5>was so many things that kind of going against him,

127
00:05:13.360 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 5>and you look at the other rookie quarterback numbers, right,

128
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:17.319
<v Speaker 5>it's not like anybody else.

129
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:18.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't even know how the Bear got to win.

130
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.079
<v Speaker 3>I mean, let's be honest, so one that one of

131
00:05:21.199 --> 00:05:23.519
<v Speaker 3>the three rookies walks away with the win. None of

132
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 3>them have great numbers.

133
00:05:24.879 --> 00:05:26.720
<v Speaker 7>Obviously you can go you know exs and know there's

134
00:05:26.759 --> 00:05:28.839
<v Speaker 7>lots of ficks. But for me, it wasn't a disappointment.

135
00:05:28.920 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 7>I think the fact that he stayed poised, that he

136
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:33.920
<v Speaker 7>led that drive towards the end, that the Broncos actually.

137
00:05:33.720 --> 00:05:36.800
<v Speaker 5>Had a chance to possibly go for the win late

138
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 5>in the game, after all that he had been through.

139
00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:40.439
<v Speaker 7>Didn't look rattled.

140
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:42.800
<v Speaker 3>You know, you talked to him postgame. I think he's

141
00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:45.800
<v Speaker 3>got the mental fortitude to deal with the adversity of

142
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.360
<v Speaker 3>a rookie season. And I think people just need to

143
00:05:48.399 --> 00:05:51.519
<v Speaker 3>practice patience, which I know that's fellow fans do.

144
00:05:52.120 --> 00:05:54.759
<v Speaker 7>But but you got for me, I wasn't disappointed.

145
00:05:56.720 --> 00:05:59.079
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean you mentioned something about you know, bo

146
00:05:59.279 --> 00:06:02.879
<v Speaker 4>Nicks and probably the hide catching up, but last season

147
00:06:02.920 --> 00:06:03.759
<v Speaker 4>when Russell.

148
00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:05.720
<v Speaker 2>Wilson came here, that was kind of the same thing.

149
00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:08.360
<v Speaker 4>And the Broncos seem to be victimized by that, but

150
00:06:08.600 --> 00:06:12.800
<v Speaker 4>Russell expected to play here in Denver. This hopefully that

151
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:15.879
<v Speaker 4>he does and it's not a cat injury. But fast

152
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:18.600
<v Speaker 4>forward into that game just a little. Do you think

153
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:22.800
<v Speaker 4>that the crowd or better yet, his former teammates are

154
00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:25.800
<v Speaker 4>going to be impacted by the fact of him coming back,

155
00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:27.560
<v Speaker 4>but now in a different uniforms.

156
00:06:28.319 --> 00:06:30.480
<v Speaker 5>You know, I don't think so as much.

157
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:32.000
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I think it's one of those things that

158
00:06:32.560 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 6>the players, Yeah, le Broncos want to get the.

159
00:06:34.879 --> 00:06:35.399
<v Speaker 2>Better end of it.

160
00:06:35.480 --> 00:06:37.240
<v Speaker 3>The players, especially those are the ones that played with.

161
00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:38.560
<v Speaker 2>And they want to be the ones that come out

162
00:06:38.600 --> 00:06:38.839
<v Speaker 2>and win.

163
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:39.839
<v Speaker 5>I think that's natural.

164
00:06:39.879 --> 00:06:41.160
<v Speaker 3>I think that's normal.

165
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:44.240
<v Speaker 7>I don't think there's like vitriol or hate for him.

166
00:06:44.399 --> 00:06:45.720
<v Speaker 7>Do I think the fans are going to boot?

167
00:06:45.759 --> 00:06:48.199
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, because that's what fans do, you know? And I

168
00:06:48.319 --> 00:06:51.560
<v Speaker 5>think that that you know, there's anger fans are you know,

169
00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 5>angry at Russ?

170
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:56.680
<v Speaker 3>But I think it's sure. I think I think the defense.

171
00:06:56.360 --> 00:06:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Will be excited.

172
00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:58.759
<v Speaker 3>Right, you get to go against the guy that you

173
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:01.160
<v Speaker 3>practiced against a lot of his tendencies.

174
00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.120
<v Speaker 5>I feel like it'll mean a lot to the defense.

175
00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:05.560
<v Speaker 5>And I also think I want to win for bo

176
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:08.360
<v Speaker 5>right now. That he's this quarterback and Russell was the

177
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:10.759
<v Speaker 5>quarterback of old and these are all the things that

178
00:07:11.199 --> 00:07:12.399
<v Speaker 5>I think are gonna happen.

179
00:07:12.480 --> 00:07:13.959
<v Speaker 3>But what I will say is I do not think

180
00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:15.920
<v Speaker 3>the booze will be as loud as they were in

181
00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:17.480
<v Speaker 3>Seattle two years ago.

182
00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:20.000
<v Speaker 5>I've never heard somebody get food so loud in my

183
00:07:20.279 --> 00:07:20.839
<v Speaker 5>entire life.

184
00:07:20.920 --> 00:07:24.680
<v Speaker 1>That was that was I talk with somebody up in

185
00:07:24.759 --> 00:07:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Seattle this week and they said, that's sort of the

186
00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:29.959
<v Speaker 1>animosity for Russell Wilson that Seattle had in that return

187
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:31.160
<v Speaker 1>game has sort of faded.

188
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:33.279
<v Speaker 2>Is they've watched him not succeed.

189
00:07:33.759 --> 00:07:35.199
<v Speaker 1>You know, if the one thing if you went out

190
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:36.680
<v Speaker 1>there and blew the doors off, and then you're mad

191
00:07:36.720 --> 00:07:38.959
<v Speaker 1>he left you and you know, jilted you and improved,

192
00:07:39.000 --> 00:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>but when you go you go out there and you

193
00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:42.480
<v Speaker 1>don't play all that well for a couple of seasons,

194
00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:44.480
<v Speaker 1>there's kind of a soft spot. Now he's one of us,

195
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:46.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, he's got that kind of thing. Do you

196
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:50.800
<v Speaker 1>feel like Broncos fans will will have that animosity if

197
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.519
<v Speaker 1>for us, you know, comes out there, if he if

198
00:07:53.519 --> 00:07:55.879
<v Speaker 1>he plays well, or do you feel like that Bronco

199
00:07:55.920 --> 00:07:58.319
<v Speaker 1>fans largely don't care they're invested the Bonnicks thing and

200
00:07:58.519 --> 00:07:59.480
<v Speaker 1>they don't really care anymore.

201
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.759
<v Speaker 5>I think the fact that you've got bo Nicks and

202
00:08:02.839 --> 00:08:06.199
<v Speaker 5>there's this hype this fite week one that softens the blow.

203
00:08:06.240 --> 00:08:08.240
<v Speaker 7>And I think they're all in on bow Nicks and

204
00:08:08.399 --> 00:08:10.800
<v Speaker 7>so that makes a difference, Right if.

205
00:08:10.680 --> 00:08:14.000
<v Speaker 5>You're rolling out city, maybe we've got a different situation here.

206
00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:16.079
<v Speaker 3>So I do think that helps. But I do think,

207
00:08:16.160 --> 00:08:17.120
<v Speaker 3>you know, fans are fans.

208
00:08:17.319 --> 00:08:19.240
<v Speaker 7>I think you will get foods.

209
00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:21.600
<v Speaker 3>I don't think he's gonna get food all game, you know,

210
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.800
<v Speaker 3>and it's going to be like it was.

211
00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:26.279
<v Speaker 5>In Seattle, because at the end of the day, I

212
00:08:26.360 --> 00:08:29.480
<v Speaker 5>think a lot of Broncos fans don't feel like Brussell.

213
00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:33.000
<v Speaker 3>Wilson is going to have a resurrection in Pittsburgh either.

214
00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:35.360
<v Speaker 3>The fact that he had to really battle with Justin

215
00:08:35.399 --> 00:08:37.919
<v Speaker 3>Fields for the whole off season to win it. It's

216
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:39.960
<v Speaker 3>like I think, I think Barbo.

217
00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:41.320
<v Speaker 7>Fans are okay with it because they were ready to

218
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:41.639
<v Speaker 7>move on.

219
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:47.600
<v Speaker 4>Well, let's kind of move to a more positive knowing

220
00:08:47.679 --> 00:08:49.480
<v Speaker 4>what I mean by that. Even though the Broncos did

221
00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:53.080
<v Speaker 4>not win yesterday, there was some negativity coming into the

222
00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:55.559
<v Speaker 4>season as far as what would the defense look like

223
00:08:55.720 --> 00:08:56.879
<v Speaker 4>for a second year in a row.

224
00:08:57.000 --> 00:08:59.960
<v Speaker 2>On DC's a coordinat Advanced Joseph Me and myself.

225
00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:05.240
<v Speaker 4>I was impressed with the defense overall after watching the game,

226
00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:08.440
<v Speaker 4>probably multiple times, Like Vin and I, what's your impression

227
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:10.519
<v Speaker 4>on how the defense played in Week one?

228
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:13.919
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, I mean I loved how they played, and when

229
00:09:13.960 --> 00:09:15.879
<v Speaker 7>I went back in Washington.

230
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:18.679
<v Speaker 5>Today, especially in the first half, obviously kind of a

231
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:20.279
<v Speaker 5>little bit of tail to have there.

232
00:09:20.600 --> 00:09:22.559
<v Speaker 3>And I know they said, no, it doesn't matter how

233
00:09:22.600 --> 00:09:23.279
<v Speaker 3>long we were out.

234
00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:24.360
<v Speaker 7>There for that, and they were out there for a

235
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:27.159
<v Speaker 7>long time. But what I liked was that there were

236
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:29.799
<v Speaker 7>areas we talked about how to improve, and they have.

237
00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:31.360
<v Speaker 3>The pass rush looks.

238
00:09:31.679 --> 00:09:32.559
<v Speaker 2>A lot better.

239
00:09:32.919 --> 00:09:34.600
<v Speaker 5>That front looks a lot meaner.

240
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:37.440
<v Speaker 3>Obviously, Seattle really.

241
00:09:37.440 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 7>Gash them on the ground in the second half.

242
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:41.360
<v Speaker 3>So it's something that you that you got to go

243
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:43.399
<v Speaker 3>from and you got to learn from and get better.

244
00:09:43.480 --> 00:09:45.320
<v Speaker 5>And we'll see how they progressed it to come out

245
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 5>that way, especially for a unit that was pretty determined

246
00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:51.720
<v Speaker 5>to come out and not have a slow go.

247
00:09:52.039 --> 00:09:54.080
<v Speaker 3>I like, I loved how they started. I liked what

248
00:09:54.159 --> 00:09:56.440
<v Speaker 3>we saw from Riley Moss across the utan. You know,

249
00:09:56.519 --> 00:09:58.960
<v Speaker 3>obviously he's going to have a tough test and some

250
00:09:59.080 --> 00:09:59.960
<v Speaker 3>of the other young guys.

251
00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:02.279
<v Speaker 7>So I was impressed with how they played.

252
00:10:02.720 --> 00:10:05.399
<v Speaker 3>The front for me looks a lot better. Is their

253
00:10:05.440 --> 00:10:05.919
<v Speaker 3>room to grow?

254
00:10:06.039 --> 00:10:08.960
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, but I think that first half especially was fantastic.

255
00:10:09.120 --> 00:10:12.519
<v Speaker 5>And special teams, I mean two years ago, this is

256
00:10:12.519 --> 00:10:14.679
<v Speaker 5>the worst special teams unit in the league.

257
00:10:15.039 --> 00:10:17.360
<v Speaker 3>So to do everything that they've been doing, special teams

258
00:10:17.399 --> 00:10:19.360
<v Speaker 3>continues to get better. I think that's just been huge

259
00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:19.679
<v Speaker 3>as well.

260
00:10:20.480 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 1>Talking with CBS, is romy being robby shifting gears a

261
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:26.480
<v Speaker 1>little bit here the Broncos got Jamal Murray extended what

262
00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:29.039
<v Speaker 1>do we think of the Nuggets and where they're at

263
00:10:29.159 --> 00:10:32.200
<v Speaker 1>right now? Do we feel optimistic about them going forward?

264
00:10:32.320 --> 00:10:34.639
<v Speaker 1>Is the window for Nicola Yokich remains open?

265
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:37.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? I mean I feel like right now that the

266
00:10:37.879 --> 00:10:38.679
<v Speaker 3>window is open.

267
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:41.279
<v Speaker 5>And with all these things like Jamal's contract, I assume

268
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:43.159
<v Speaker 5>you know, Nicole is like, these are the guys I

269
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.320
<v Speaker 5>want around me, so pay them their money so that

270
00:10:47.039 --> 00:10:49.279
<v Speaker 5>they have one of the most unstoppable two man games.

271
00:10:49.320 --> 00:10:51.600
<v Speaker 5>So it makes sense to lock down Jamal Murray.

272
00:10:51.639 --> 00:10:54.039
<v Speaker 3>I know some fans had mixed emotions on that, but

273
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:57.600
<v Speaker 3>the biggest question mark for the Nuggets has been and

274
00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:58.480
<v Speaker 3>will continue to.

275
00:10:58.480 --> 00:10:58.960
<v Speaker 5>Be the bench.

276
00:10:59.039 --> 00:11:01.360
<v Speaker 3>And so now you got Russell Westbrook and what does

277
00:11:01.440 --> 00:11:01.679
<v Speaker 3>that do?

278
00:11:01.840 --> 00:11:04.480
<v Speaker 5>I think it definitely gives them a huge playmaker on

279
00:11:05.320 --> 00:11:09.039
<v Speaker 5>off the bench, which they need, uh oh tremendously, And

280
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:11.480
<v Speaker 5>I think it's just going to be I think Christian

281
00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:12.600
<v Speaker 5>Brown's ready to step up.

282
00:11:12.559 --> 00:11:14.399
<v Speaker 3>In that role and step in for KCP.

283
00:11:14.600 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 6>But that's I guess a little.

284
00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:17.480
<v Speaker 7>Bit of a question mark as well. But the window

285
00:11:17.559 --> 00:11:21.759
<v Speaker 7>is very much so wide open, and you know, I

286
00:11:21.919 --> 00:11:23.960
<v Speaker 7>think that they have all the pieces.

287
00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:25.759
<v Speaker 3>You just got to arrest them.

288
00:11:25.960 --> 00:11:27.799
<v Speaker 5>You hope that having Westbrook and there means you're not

289
00:11:27.840 --> 00:11:29.720
<v Speaker 5>playing your starters as much, because I really think that's

290
00:11:29.720 --> 00:11:32.320
<v Speaker 5>the most significant thing for the Nuggets to seed and

291
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:34.480
<v Speaker 5>you just cannot wear down your starters because we saw

292
00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:37.519
<v Speaker 5>what happen when you do well. Rommy.

293
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:41.039
<v Speaker 4>That's really interesting because it's always with the championship team,

294
00:11:41.759 --> 00:11:45.000
<v Speaker 4>is the window open or is it closing? And in

295
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.600
<v Speaker 4>this case for the different Nuggets, but you mentioned a

296
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.440
<v Speaker 4>very important part right for that window to remain open,

297
00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 4>and that means that you you need quality minutes, quality

298
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.919
<v Speaker 4>production from your bench, and the Nuggets didn't really do

299
00:11:59.120 --> 00:12:02.240
<v Speaker 4>that much to help their bitch. Do you think that

300
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:05.399
<v Speaker 4>they there's somehow, this massive plan that coach Malone could

301
00:12:05.399 --> 00:12:07.600
<v Speaker 4>come up with some things scheme wise to get that

302
00:12:07.679 --> 00:12:10.559
<v Speaker 4>bench to play better this year collectively than they played

303
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:11.000
<v Speaker 4>last year.

304
00:12:12.320 --> 00:12:14.559
<v Speaker 3>Well, I mean simply, but they have to, Nick.

305
00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:18.320
<v Speaker 5>I mean, this team is very, very Their culture.

306
00:12:18.080 --> 00:12:20.080
<v Speaker 7>Has always been drafted and development, and they believe in

307
00:12:20.120 --> 00:12:20.960
<v Speaker 7>their young guys.

308
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:22.480
<v Speaker 5>And they believe in Peyton Watson and a lot of

309
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:23.279
<v Speaker 5>these young guys.

310
00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:24.039
<v Speaker 2>To step up.

311
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:27.240
<v Speaker 7>But it, you know, it goes back to what you're saying,

312
00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:29.600
<v Speaker 7>you cannot waste the Colaoka just windows.

313
00:12:29.600 --> 00:12:31.000
<v Speaker 5>So if you're gonna believe in the young guys that

314
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:32.399
<v Speaker 5>they got to step up, and they got to step

315
00:12:32.440 --> 00:12:33.320
<v Speaker 5>up quick, there's no.

316
00:12:33.399 --> 00:12:35.679
<v Speaker 3>Way to there's no waiting on them, you know. And

317
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:37.639
<v Speaker 3>if not, then you got to go out and get playmakers.

318
00:12:37.759 --> 00:12:40.120
<v Speaker 5>And so I think that they feel like bringing in

319
00:12:40.360 --> 00:12:42.279
<v Speaker 5>Westbrook will really help them.

320
00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:46.000
<v Speaker 3>The way Westbrook can, you know, control the game. And

321
00:12:46.559 --> 00:12:49.320
<v Speaker 3>I think said he's also a big guy on defense.

322
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:51.879
<v Speaker 3>I think they's got Watson take a big step up

323
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:52.960
<v Speaker 3>on defense as well.

324
00:12:53.240 --> 00:12:56.720
<v Speaker 5>Now you've got a lot more power offensively and defensively

325
00:12:57.720 --> 00:12:58.279
<v Speaker 5>on the bench.

326
00:12:58.440 --> 00:13:01.559
<v Speaker 3>But they simply have to be at that production. Christian

327
00:13:01.639 --> 00:13:04.200
<v Speaker 3>Brown has to step up, you know, ready or not.

328
00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:05.879
<v Speaker 3>Like I said, I think he's ready, but.

329
00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:06.720
<v Speaker 5>He has to be.

330
00:13:06.840 --> 00:13:09.480
<v Speaker 7>There's no choice because you can't waste the window of

331
00:13:09.559 --> 00:13:10.360
<v Speaker 7>an all time player.

332
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:12.759
<v Speaker 1>So Romby the last question for me, I think we

333
00:13:12.879 --> 00:13:15.120
<v Speaker 1>all had this game circle this Sunday and you know,

334
00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Russ's return and all that kind of stuff. Soon Asie

335
00:13:17.279 --> 00:13:19.799
<v Speaker 1>stied with the Steelers, do we care anymore? Do we

336
00:13:19.919 --> 00:13:21.639
<v Speaker 1>care if Russell Wilson even plays in this or if

337
00:13:21.679 --> 00:13:22.399
<v Speaker 1>it's justin field.

338
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:25.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I feel like you hope Russell Wilson plays.

339
00:13:25.879 --> 00:13:28.399
<v Speaker 3>I know the NFL helps Russell Wilson.

340
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:31.679
<v Speaker 7>Plays, right, It certainly brings more hype, But big picture,

341
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:33.120
<v Speaker 7>do you really care now?

342
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:33.639
<v Speaker 3>Like?

343
00:13:34.000 --> 00:13:36.840
<v Speaker 5>Does it matter? Maybe it matters too Bron the fans

344
00:13:36.879 --> 00:13:39.200
<v Speaker 5>a little bit to beat Russell Wilson, But I.

345
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:41.360
<v Speaker 7>Don't know if it matters all that much.

346
00:13:41.440 --> 00:13:43.279
<v Speaker 3>You're paying him thirty eight million to sit on the

347
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:44.600
<v Speaker 3>bench or to play in the game.

348
00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:45.200
<v Speaker 6>Doesn't matter.

349
00:13:45.559 --> 00:13:47.200
<v Speaker 3>I think the fact that you have bone Nicks and

350
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:47.480
<v Speaker 3>you have.

351
00:13:47.600 --> 00:13:50.759
<v Speaker 5>A direction and people are really invested in where this.

352
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:52.720
<v Speaker 3>Young team is going to go. But I think I

353
00:13:52.759 --> 00:13:53.600
<v Speaker 3>can totally matter.

354
00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:55.840
<v Speaker 7>But at the same time, I think it'd be more fun.

355
00:13:56.000 --> 00:13:58.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Russelly certainly more fun.

356
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:00.960
