00:00Some good news, looked like Bill at least dressed out there for practice.
00:05Bill's got a big opportunity this year.
00:07Huge.
00:07I mean, he looks very firmly as the top running back on this team.
00:12What can he do with it?
00:14The phone line's been lit up all day.
00:16Adam Peters says he's confident, fans don't see everything he sees,
00:20and that this team is going to be ready for week one in Philadelphia.
00:24I think if I had asked folks on August 15th, they would have been like,
00:28hell yeah, we like the way this is going.
00:30By the time you ask on September 1st after a preseason loss in Detroit
00:34where the coach says it was in disarray,
00:37and then a joint practice in Baltimore where the offensive line largely got manhandled,
00:42and then a dud, a flat-out dud of a performance in the preseason finale,
00:47I think fans are a little somewhere between more concerned and pissed off.
00:52I can't stress enough the preseason finale, 41 dudes didn't dress.
00:56There are 11 starters on offensive defense.
00:59That's 22 players.
01:01It was almost double that.
01:02So basically their entire two deep did not play in that game.
01:06Keep that in mind.
01:07Now we will go to the phones.
01:09My guy Dom is in Chicago.
01:11What's up, Dominic?
01:11What up, D?
01:13You know, I made a mistake.
01:15I got my lines crisscrossed.
01:16You probably can hear the fan in the background, can't you?
01:20No, you're good, dude.
01:21Go ahead.
01:22Oh, okay, okay.
01:23Yeah, no, I'm all with Allen Peters.
01:26I'm glad he stuck his chest up, man.
01:27He told him, we met Sean and everything we got.
01:31You know what I mean?
01:32You got a new coach, offense and defense.
01:35You don't expect him to show you nothing.
01:38You know, keep these guys on suspense.
01:39You got Philly coming up the first week.
01:42I'm glad he did what he did.
01:44And also Allen Gretti.
01:46I think the reason why they had good Jones in there,
01:48maybe he had the same body type, maybe beat hands.
01:50He had the same body type, same snapping style,
01:53and that kid didn't kind of stress.
01:57I'm hearing both radio on myself at the same time, JP.
02:01I'm sorry about that.
02:03It's all right.
02:04I think we're going to let you go, Dom.
02:05I don't know what's happening for you, buddy,
02:07but I hope you figure it out, man.
02:10980, 106, and himself.
02:11Are we being simulcast on 980 right now?
02:15Okay.
02:16I knew it when Jeremiah called.
02:18I knew we were being simulcast.
02:19No, Ian.
02:20When Ian called.
02:20That's Ian, not Jeremiah.
02:21Ian, yeah, yeah.
02:22And Pauly calls.
02:23That's how we know.
02:24Pauly or Ian called.
02:25They're the only call over here
02:26and give us that same mindset
02:27whenever they can't call their people.
02:29Real question.
02:30Why don't anybody tell us that?
02:32And then we can say, hey, we're also on 980.
02:34Hope everybody's enjoying the program.
02:36Jeff, how confident?
02:37What did you think of AP saying,
02:39don't worry about it, we're confident?
02:42You got to show me, man.
02:44And the only reason why I say that
02:46is because nothing we, well, that I've seen
02:49in the preseason, nothing has been dominant
02:52to the point where, like, it's like,
02:55you know when Terry first came, right,
02:57and he was dominant, and they said him,
03:01I believe it was the first game,
03:02but when he came in and actually played,
03:05you feel why he didn't practice.
03:09You've seen how much he affected the game.
03:11Week one in Philly, he exploded.
03:12Yeah.
03:13Week one in Philly, though,
03:13but that was week one in Philly.
03:15We hadn't gotten to week one yet.
03:17Yeah, that's why I say I got to see
03:18because I was skeptical then
03:20when he didn't play,
03:21but when I saw him play,
03:22I was like, oh, all right.
03:24It was good reason he did.
03:25So I just got to wait for right now.
03:28Holler at me week three.
03:29Then I can tell you.
03:31All right.
03:32Jeff says he's going to wait
03:33until week three.
03:34Let's go to our guy, Drew.
03:36Dude.
03:36Drew, what's up, man?
03:39What's going on, fellas, man?
03:40Like I always, man,
03:41hey, y'all keep up the good work, man.
03:44My thing is,
03:45it ain't so much about the scoring.
03:48I just want consistency, man.
03:50I just, my thing is about the depth.
03:51Okay, Lurie Tunsell,
03:53he's a big drop-off,
03:55but also I understand the next man up
03:57and he's a very special player,
03:58but I just want,
03:59I just don't want,
04:00when you lose one particular player,
04:03it shouldn't dominate your whole line.
04:06You should have other professionals
04:08to be in there to say,
04:10hey, you know, hey, stepping up.
04:11But my thing with Adam Peters,
04:13the only thing that I,
04:14that, that I was disappointed about,
04:17I didn't like these
04:18one and two year contracts.
04:20Okay, but we had the Army Bram
04:21when we made that championship run.
04:23I thought they should assign him,
04:25but I was speaking with the,
04:27speaking with somebody
04:28and they were talking about,
04:28you know, he went,
04:29he went to another team
04:30and didn't play,
04:30he played like crap.
04:32But also you got to look
04:33at the system he was in.
04:34He was in the system here
04:35that worked out for him
04:37and he gave up good numbers.
04:38So I don't like these
04:39one and two year
04:40dink and dunk contracts.
04:42And also,
04:43and maybe you all can answer this,
04:44do they have a new office,
04:46a line,
04:46a new office,
04:47a line coach?
04:48And also,
04:49I'm going to say this
04:49and I'm going to get off.
04:51I, you know,
04:51I'm really not tripping off the wins.
04:53It's about how you play.
04:54Like you said,
04:55there was 41 players down.
04:56I'll look at the year
04:57when we went 14 and two
04:58with Joe Gibbs.
05:00I think that preseason,
05:01what we went like
05:020 and five or something,
05:03then came out the gate smoking.
05:04But I just say,
05:05you know,
05:06I just want to see consistency
05:07on the line.
05:08I'm not worried about the score.
05:09I just want to make sure
05:10you do your job.
05:12Y'all stay blessed, man.
05:13Stay blessed.
05:14Thanks, dude.
05:16You're right.
05:17The year you guys won the Super Bowl,
05:18you were 0 and 4
05:19in the preseason.
05:20Yeah,
05:20and that's what I was looking up.
05:21And I think we got our ass
05:22kicked in the last game, too.
05:24Yeah,
05:24I don't know that
05:25I'm extrapolating much from that.
05:27I'm not comparing this team
05:28to that,
05:28but I'm just saying
05:32I think preseason means something.
05:34I'm told by every media person,
05:36every fan,
05:37that it's not.
05:38And then when we lose the game,
05:39then it means so much.
05:40You get what I'm saying?
05:41Yeah.
05:41My thing is,
05:42if it doesn't mean nothing,
05:43why the hell are you upset?
05:44Okay?
05:45I've been the one
05:45that's saying it means something,
05:47but everybody else
05:47has been telling me
05:48it don't mean anything.
05:49Now,
05:50all of a sudden,
05:50I'm not the one upset
05:51and everybody else is upset.
05:53I don't think it means anything.
05:55I'm cool with not playing guys.
05:57My problem with the Ravens loss
05:58was the players
05:59that were on the field
06:00looked disinterested.
06:01Yeah.
06:02And whatever depth you're building,
06:04that's problematic to me.
06:06But I'll at least own,
06:08if Jaden's only going to play
06:10three series,
06:10I think you're better off,
06:11three snaps, rather,
06:12I think you're better off
06:13just not playing him.
06:14Like,
06:14if that is a hard and fast,
06:16it's one series no matter what,
06:17just don't play him
06:18because it can be a three and out.
06:20I do not think the juice
06:21is worth the squeeze
06:22of a three and out.
06:24I mean,
06:24he was pressured
06:25on the first snap.
06:26The credit to the Lions defenders
06:28for not going balls out,
06:30they could have rocked him
06:31on the sack.
06:32They didn't even bring him
06:33down to the ground.
06:34They let the whistle blow
06:35and then they called a draw
06:36on third down.
06:37That, to me,
06:37isn't worth it.
06:38Now,
06:38there are people
06:38that very much disagree with me
06:40and they're allowed to.
06:41I disagree with you, Jay.
06:42Right.
06:43But I'm just saying,
06:43I will own that I don't think
06:44the preseason matters.
06:45But that's the thing about it, though.
06:46If you don't think
06:47it means nothing,
06:48then guess what?
06:49You can't be pissed off
06:50when they lose games.
06:52I just think people
06:54can't pick and choose
06:55when it means something.
06:56Sure.
06:56If it don't mean anything
06:57for people to play,
06:58then when they lose,
06:58why the hell you care?
06:59So my whole thing,
07:01if you're going to get upset,
07:02it must mean something to you.
07:04And if it means something to you,
07:06then it damn well
07:06needs to mean something
07:07to the people.
07:07That's the only reason
07:08I got pissed because,
07:09like you said,
07:10the guys on the field
07:11act like they didn't care.
07:13That's a problem to me.
07:14I think you can draw conclusions
07:16based to the end
07:17of training camp
07:18and the center situation
07:19particularly looks mismanaged,
07:21at least the depth factor.
07:23I think you can draw conclusions
07:25from the block of training camp
07:26and not from preseason results.
07:28I think you can separate those two.
07:30Let's go to Curtis in D.C.
07:32What's up, Curtis?
07:34Good morning.
07:35How are you, J.P.?
07:36And Brian mentioned
07:37Adam Peters
07:38and Dan Quinn are a fraud.
07:40This roster should be
07:42way further.
07:43We had all the money
07:44we've had the last two years
07:45and we're still looking
07:46for a center.
07:47We still need a young corner.
07:49They didn't want to pay
07:50Terry his money last year.
07:51And then they put
07:52all the pressure
07:53on Jason Daniel.
07:55Now they'll do all the way.
07:56What was his name?
07:57$100 million.
07:58Don't know if he's going to be ready
07:59for game week one or two
08:00or maybe three.
08:01It's ridiculous.
08:03People keep trying
08:04to get at the P's and pass.
08:06But this stuff
08:07don't look good
08:08and I think it'll be
08:09another struggling year
08:10and Jason Daniel
08:11probably get hurt again
08:12because you've got
08:13to build that line.
08:14Brian mentioned
08:15the football is based
08:17on offensive line
08:18and defensive line.
08:20I think we've done
08:20a terrible job.
08:21We keep getting
08:22the AARP players
08:2336 and over
08:24and now Andretti
08:27to get healthy
08:27and all that stuff.
08:28And you know
08:29he won't get hurt again
08:30because he's been
08:31out.
08:32He's got calf muscles
08:33and all that stuff.
08:33So this stuff
08:34is getting ridiculous
08:34and I'm tired
08:35of Adam Pease
08:36and Dan Quinn.
08:37Thank y'all.
08:40All right, man.
08:41I appreciate your passion,
08:43sir.
08:43I don't necessarily
08:44agree with you.
08:45Last year they did
08:46add eight
08:47older veterans.
08:48That's not really
08:49what they did this year.
08:50They mostly signed guys
08:51coming off rookie deals
08:52or in their 20s anyway.
08:54way.
