00:02 - Joe Burrow, of course, hasn't been seen or heard from
00:05 since his calf strain a few weeks ago.
00:07 Zach Taylor did say this morning
00:10 that he looks as good as he's ever looked.
00:14 I'll ask you, Cam, how is that possible?
00:15 He's got a calf strain.
00:17 He can't possibly look as good as he's ever looked.
00:20 I know you want to sell that he's doing okay,
00:24 but you don't have to go that far.
00:26 This is going to be a question.
00:27 - There's no need to trick us.
00:29 - You're right, Carver.
00:30 - There's no need to trick us.
00:30 - Who do you think we are?
00:31 Exactly.
00:32 - These coaches, they try to do this cloak and dagger stuff
00:36 with you, like he's the best he's ever looked.
00:38 You got to see him.
00:39 He's the best he's ever looked.
00:40 All right, if he's the best he's ever looked,
00:41 then go play him in the third preseason game this week.
00:43 No, you're not gonna do it, 'cause he has a calf strain.
00:45 This is going to go on.
00:46 We'll see how good he is when he plays the first real game.
00:49 Right, Cam?
00:50 Then we'll know if he's as good as he's ever looked.
00:52 That's what it comes down to.
00:53 - Carver, in my opinion, this is just my opinion.
00:56 I think the injury is much more severe
00:58 than they're leading on.
00:59 They're scared. - Probably.
01:00 - I'm thinking about pulling the trigger
01:02 on Cleveland week one.
01:02 If you look at a lot of books,
01:03 they've taken that game off the board
01:05 and haven't reposted it.
01:06 There's something going on here,
01:07 'cause the minute they post Cleveland, I'm in.
01:09 I think he's still hurt.
01:10 I think it's very dangerous.
01:12 I don't think it's that simple.
01:13 I think he's gonna play with a lingering injury,
01:15 and the Bengals could be in big trouble.
