WEBVTT 00:02.785 --> 00:03.205 [SPEAKER_00]: Hi, folks. 00:03.225 --> 00:04.626 [SPEAKER_00]: Welcome to the episode of Film Study. 00:04.646 --> 00:05.626 [SPEAKER_00]: This is Kevin McCusik. 00:06.027 --> 00:11.730 [SPEAKER_00]: As time for today's camp notes on August 13th, 2026 is the 13th day of practice today. 00:11.770 --> 00:12.670 [SPEAKER_00]: There were no pads. 00:13.410 --> 00:21.114 [SPEAKER_00]: The practice was characterized by long play sequences for each offensive unit to try to replicate game action more. 00:21.615 --> 00:27.778 [SPEAKER_00]: And in particular, the second half of practice was all pretty much the two's and three's getting ready for Saturday. 00:28.278 --> 00:44.359 [SPEAKER_00]: With some huge injury news come out, Jesse mentioned at the podium said that Marlon Humphrey's reason for departure was nothing serious and that both he and Nate Wiggins should be back next week, absolutely fabulous news, neither Wiggins nor Humphrey was at practice today. 00:45.180 --> 00:49.543 [SPEAKER_00]: Had other positive injury news, Z-flowers was back practicing full, including 11-11. 00:49.563 --> 00:57.089 [SPEAKER_00]: He hadn't done that since the injury, Rashad Baitman also returned to practice after two missed days and was a full go. 00:57.569 --> 01:00.972 [SPEAKER_00]: Nonday Matopeki was again in uniform on the field, did calistemics. 01:01.352 --> 01:04.454 [SPEAKER_00]: Then some conditioning were still no sledwork for Nonday. 01:04.995 --> 01:09.198 [SPEAKER_00]: Minter did talk about the podium, talking about they're being a progression time table, but 01:10.179 --> 01:22.308 [SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, at this point, I don't know what to believe, so you know, he continues to honestly not make it do anything significantly different than he has from my perspective day for day. 01:22.328 --> 01:26.192 [SPEAKER_00]: And one of the fun things is that there's now a significant contingent at the media. 01:26.872 --> 01:44.168 [SPEAKER_00]: that as soon as the initial 11 on 11 period, which is a kind of set in snap drills or brief walk through segment or being on a call it, there's a segment of the media that bolts over to watch the defensive line practice and see if they get video of non-me actually doing sled drills, but it is yet to happen. 01:44.448 --> 01:45.189 [SPEAKER_00]: So anyway. 01:45.649 --> 01:46.250 [SPEAKER_00]: That's where we are. 01:46.710 --> 01:49.993 [SPEAKER_00]: Also absent Teddy Buchanan, he's the only remaining P.U.P. 01:50.033 --> 01:52.815 [SPEAKER_00]: player, Russian Ali, Mr. Third Street Day. 01:53.275 --> 01:55.777 [SPEAKER_00]: He almost certainly will not play Saturday. 01:55.817 --> 01:57.859 [SPEAKER_00]: I guess it's possible, but unlikely. 01:58.279 --> 02:01.742 [SPEAKER_00]: Octavians Smith, Chuck West, Robinson, and Carl Jones also miss practice. 02:03.188 --> 02:09.753 [SPEAKER_00]: Omar Jackson had one of his best days of camp, only one incomplete pass between 7-07 and 11-11-11 sections. 02:10.473 --> 02:16.277 [SPEAKER_00]: He completed 12 out of 13 in those two segments. 02:16.397 --> 02:17.338 [SPEAKER_00]: No interceptions. 02:17.458 --> 02:20.200 [SPEAKER_00]: He threw the ball in position for Good Yack. 02:20.460 --> 02:27.045 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought, generally speaking, and he completed a really nice bomb to beatmen down the left side line in 7-07. 02:27.685 --> 02:29.727 [SPEAKER_00]: Beatmen hauled in the ball, then he allowed 02:30.187 --> 02:58.693 [SPEAKER_00]: Martin to kind of run past the play and then he definitely moved right around Martin and continue going to the end zone for what would have been a nice long TD so great play by Pete and they're nice throw by the bar and then he had a gorgeous throw tucked in but between level two and level three on the right sideline to walker you could call it a whole shot versus a cover two zone but in case a really nicely thrown ball just fit right in on the sidelines there and walker hold it in and then made a beautiful spin move himself 02:59.254 --> 03:05.587 [SPEAKER_00]: to get by the defender there where I believe was Jalen Hawkins that he spun past. 03:08.035 --> 03:35.952 [SPEAKER_00]: uh... see look at seven on sevens in particular jackson through the lane twenty yards for uh... between the the right hash and right numbers wide open on a crossing routes i didn't have a coverage player for you on that one jackson then completed a five yard pass on the left side line to Andrews in front of hawkins interesting the hawkins you know came up on the play and then through his hands up in the air as if to say you know i'm not hitting somebody else uh... this is this camp but uh... good to see that they may have had that discussion 03:36.652 --> 03:40.436 [SPEAKER_00]: He's now in full taking care of other receivers mode. 03:41.076 --> 03:44.980 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson and three in complete for Bateman ten yards to circle. 03:45.000 --> 03:46.782 [SPEAKER_00]: Actually, Bateman fell down on the route. 03:48.083 --> 03:49.564 [SPEAKER_00]: Martin was in coverage on it. 03:50.165 --> 03:56.490 [SPEAKER_00]: It didn't have a play on the football, but that was Lamar's only incomplete past the whole day was on a Bateman slip. 03:57.269 --> 04:01.834 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson then completed to flowers, 10 yards, plus maybe about 10 yac by the left side line. 04:02.215 --> 04:05.318 [SPEAKER_00]: That was flowers first catch since his injury. 04:05.599 --> 04:16.752 [SPEAKER_00]: So since Hawkins ran into him in the end zone and he's out for a while, I guess it's been close to a week by now, that was his first catch coming back so that it really nice to see. 04:18.484 --> 04:20.525 [SPEAKER_00]: So Jackson completed another past a hybner. 04:20.845 --> 04:26.669 [SPEAKER_00]: It was about five yards between the numbers and left hash, but he caught hybner on the run. 04:26.689 --> 04:29.551 [SPEAKER_00]: There would have been about five to 10-yack added to that. 04:29.571 --> 04:31.212 [SPEAKER_00]: So nice throw by Lamar. 04:31.352 --> 04:33.053 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson completed the 40-yard pass. 04:33.073 --> 04:36.235 [SPEAKER_00]: I talked about earlier to beat, and that was well at the left sideline. 04:36.835 --> 04:37.895 [SPEAKER_00]: with Martin and coverage. 04:38.556 --> 04:48.699 [SPEAKER_00]: We saw Huntley throw for more 15 yards between the right hash and right numbers, but Martin under cut the ball for an interception. 04:49.300 --> 04:54.662 [SPEAKER_00]: Unfortunately, that play was negated by a DPI called on Martin, so Martin's really been making plays. 04:54.822 --> 05:00.244 [SPEAKER_00]: I got to tell you yet a few times, so he was kind of beaten today on some plays, but he still 05:01.124 --> 05:10.050 [SPEAKER_00]: flashes at an unbelievable level and at the competition between he and rivers in the preseason is going to be intense and very fun to watch. 05:12.214 --> 05:20.163 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, then we saw Fagnano in the game who threw a five yard pass for Wester by the right sideline, Wester tipped the ball into the air. 05:20.183 --> 05:25.949 [SPEAKER_00]: This might have to turn a little bit behind him and Silas Walters intercepted it and ran it in for a touchdown. 05:25.969 --> 05:31.215 [SPEAKER_00]: So good play for Walters to put one of the books there in practice. 05:32.456 --> 05:32.977 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll take a break. 05:32.997 --> 05:33.798 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll come back in a minute. 05:36.643 --> 05:38.623 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, 11 on 11 highlights. 05:38.983 --> 05:42.944 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson completed a five yard pass of flowers with Martin closest. 05:42.964 --> 05:46.485 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson completed another five yard pass to Andrews in front of Smith. 05:47.105 --> 05:51.486 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson completed a 15 yard pass to Walker by the right sideline. 05:52.026 --> 05:56.527 [SPEAKER_00]: And he, this is the one where he spun by Hawkins after a catch, one of them are his two best throws. 05:57.007 --> 05:59.187 [SPEAKER_00]: We saw a grin, have a fall start. 05:59.527 --> 06:01.248 [SPEAKER_00]: And he's playing center at this point. 06:02.988 --> 06:05.329 [SPEAKER_00]: It was a case where everybody else kind of seemed to move. 06:05.390 --> 06:06.510 [SPEAKER_00]: Green got pulled from the game. 06:06.530 --> 06:09.752 [SPEAKER_00]: So a case where we were a case with a center for gets the snap count. 06:10.412 --> 06:11.293 [SPEAKER_00]: Then they had a sack. 06:11.433 --> 06:12.394 [SPEAKER_00]: That was blown dead. 06:12.734 --> 06:15.695 [SPEAKER_00]: It looked like it was Burke and a Koye in on a huntley. 06:16.616 --> 06:18.217 [SPEAKER_00]: And they blew the play dead. 06:18.457 --> 06:23.220 [SPEAKER_00]: I do feel like Jackson sometimes gets the benefit of the whistle in terms of extending plays. 06:23.280 --> 06:26.682 [SPEAKER_00]: But there's privileges to rank. 06:26.782 --> 06:29.663 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson then rolled right on a short pass to flowers. 06:32.745 --> 06:47.993 [SPEAKER_00]: Jackson completed a 10 yard pass between the right hash and numbers to beatmen with Tampa closest to nice day for beatmen so far and Jackson took off on a mesh route sorry on a mesh run left we did a good job of finding space. 06:49.391 --> 06:53.633 [SPEAKER_00]: We've been saw Lamar complete the Andrews five yards between the hash marks. 06:54.073 --> 06:58.495 [SPEAKER_00]: And it looked like there was about another five to ten yak on that play with no defender close. 06:58.855 --> 07:04.018 [SPEAKER_00]: So a nice sip on the ball got it to Andrews and Andrews was in a position to turn and move up field. 07:04.618 --> 07:13.442 [SPEAKER_00]: Then you complete a five-yard pass to beatman in front of Cone, Cone is going to get a big opportunity this preseason. 07:13.542 --> 07:20.044 [SPEAKER_00]: In fact, it looks like I don't think either Humphrey or Martin, I'm sorry, or Wiggins is going to play the first game. 07:20.464 --> 07:24.726 [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to probably see Cone and Tampa be the starting cornerbacks. 07:24.766 --> 07:27.087 [SPEAKER_00]: It could be a war, a warier. 07:27.587 --> 07:28.529 [SPEAKER_00]: but I just don't believe it. 07:28.549 --> 07:34.118 [SPEAKER_00]: I think they really believe Cone is their next best guy on the roster and I think that they'll we'll see him. 07:34.158 --> 07:38.725 [SPEAKER_00]: He was outstanding in the very brief preseason appearance debate against the colds last year. 07:38.805 --> 07:42.091 [SPEAKER_00]: So that's something I'm certainly looking forward to seeing on Saturday. 07:44.655 --> 07:49.076 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, we saw Mike Green have a near TFL of just as Hill. 07:49.276 --> 07:52.536 [SPEAKER_00]: Then we saw Huntley throw for Lane 10 yards by the left side line. 07:52.556 --> 07:54.797 [SPEAKER_00]: That got knocked down by Tampa. 07:54.877 --> 07:57.397 [SPEAKER_00]: Higgins stuffed McMillan on a run middle. 07:58.177 --> 08:04.239 [SPEAKER_00]: Then we saw Fagnano make a nice throw to Petsa 15 yards between the left numbers and left hash. 08:04.879 --> 08:06.899 [SPEAKER_00]: It looked like they were the yac on the play too. 08:06.959 --> 08:08.279 [SPEAKER_00]: Nice laser by Fagnano. 08:08.299 --> 08:12.220 [SPEAKER_00]: We haven't seen him make too many deep throws period, but this was, this was one not only 08:12.900 --> 08:16.503 [SPEAKER_00]: was on target, but it was really thrown with a lot of zip on the ball. 08:18.224 --> 08:24.629 [SPEAKER_00]: Then he overthrew Lane at the ball was high, you got to really throw it high to throw it over Jacobi Lane's head, but he did. 08:24.649 --> 08:31.855 [SPEAKER_00]: It was about five yards between the right hash and right numbers, longer being was trailing on the play, but you know, unfortunate. 08:32.495 --> 08:37.199 [SPEAKER_00]: Fagnano then held onto the ball too long and he didn't get the benefit of the whistle. 08:37.219 --> 08:37.359 [SPEAKER_00]: It was 08:39.701 --> 08:45.245 [SPEAKER_00]: We saw a Fanyano hit Charles Johnson about 15 yards between the right-hash and right numbers. 08:45.285 --> 08:53.692 [SPEAKER_00]: There he beat La Darius Web Junior and then Fanyano under through Johnson, 20 yards down the middle of the field. 08:54.513 --> 08:59.737 [SPEAKER_00]: That was really unfortunate because Johnson was behind the defense and the ball was thrown like about three steps behind him. 09:00.258 --> 09:05.102 [SPEAKER_00]: Not sure what happened, whether he just got the ball, came out of his hand funny or whatever it might have been. 09:05.542 --> 09:11.492 [SPEAKER_00]: but certainly a throw that Pinyana would like to have back and Johnson ran a good route and you know, beat the defense there. 09:12.164 --> 09:22.489 [SPEAKER_00]: Then we saw Feignano complete a ball on the right side line, right by the line of scrimmage to Wade, and Tampa again, going after the football aggressively, nearly discharged it after the catch. 09:22.509 --> 09:23.849 [SPEAKER_00]: So this was not at the catch point. 09:24.210 --> 09:35.815 [SPEAKER_00]: This is the completion it had been registered and Tampa really going for the punch out, kind of a peanut punch, kind of look to it and didn't quite get it out, but the ball moved, you know, within Wade's grass. 09:37.618 --> 09:46.430 [SPEAKER_00]: And we saw Feignano through incomplete to Walker 15 yards by the right sideline in the end zone longer being was trailing on the play ball just really overthrown. 09:46.450 --> 09:55.121 [SPEAKER_00]: But Millen was bottled up on a run left to end that sequence and then we saw Austin Reed get a few plays his first of the. 09:56.262 --> 10:02.688 [SPEAKER_00]: of since he was acquired and that included a 10-yard pass to Johnson who beat Webb in the corner of the inzone. 10:02.728 --> 10:08.894 [SPEAKER_00]: So nice start for AR-15 as I'm sure we'll be calling him within the next week or so. 10:09.314 --> 10:18.242 [SPEAKER_00]: Probably he will probably see some playing time in the preseason game I would think although I think the quarterback will play the most is probably Faniano in the game. 10:19.562 --> 10:39.668 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, we then saw Millen bottled up on a run left to end the sequence and then read through the 10 yard touchdown to John, so I talking about okay loop was four or four on the day he's now made at least 20 kicks in a row going back three kicking days he was good from 27 from a left hash 33 from left hash 38 from the right hash and 43 from the left hash 10:43.010 --> 10:52.737 [SPEAKER_00]: Only the first of those kicks did not really have the good end over end rotation that you hear me talking about occasionally on this show, but something certainly that kicking coaches look for around the league. 10:53.437 --> 11:00.202 [SPEAKER_00]: Stars on offense, I'd say Lamar Jackson with his long throws, you know, very high proficient. 11:01.563 --> 11:14.969 [SPEAKER_00]: passing off on today without an interception beatman for definitely moving past Morton the catch as well after he overran that play after the catch and so beatman looked good today. 11:15.049 --> 11:22.472 [SPEAKER_00]: Cornelius Johnson also I thought for two castes plus the underthrone third ball which would have been a nice another nice pick-up. 11:22.712 --> 11:25.313 [SPEAKER_00]: He probably had one of the other really good days on offense. 11:25.473 --> 11:25.513 [SPEAKER_00]: On 11:30.096 --> 11:32.619 [SPEAKER_00]: he's stacked so many plays this preseason. 11:33.160 --> 11:39.548 [SPEAKER_00]: I felt like he was probably the defender who deserved it in terms of being around the ball and making things happen. 11:39.929 --> 11:46.117 [SPEAKER_00]: Silas Walters picks six also earns him an easy player of the day as well on defense. 11:46.738 --> 11:48.940 [SPEAKER_00]: At the podium, I made a few people, Jesse Mentor was first. 11:49.620 --> 11:52.383 [SPEAKER_00]: He talked about Marlin and eight being back next week. 11:52.423 --> 11:56.847 [SPEAKER_00]: He said he wants to get Yuan A, some game action in this first preseason game. 11:56.867 --> 11:58.228 [SPEAKER_00]: So I wasn't sure we'd see that. 11:58.288 --> 11:59.329 [SPEAKER_00]: I was one of those questions. 11:59.349 --> 12:07.375 [SPEAKER_00]: I thought, you know, can you only put Yuan A out there if you put the rest of the first team offensive line out there because you, you kind of don't want to take a chance on him being all alone. 12:07.876 --> 12:12.620 [SPEAKER_00]: And he all he said was that he really wanted to see Yuan A get some game action versus the Eagles. 12:13.140 --> 12:23.958 [SPEAKER_00]: So, there'll be much, much more detail, of course, that about that, you know, on the review of the offense, it will probably do scoring of you one A for this first game. 12:25.110 --> 12:34.094 [SPEAKER_00]: I talked about the Namedi progression and having a timeline and frankly, I stopped wanting to write things down after I started hearing that. 12:34.735 --> 12:37.176 [SPEAKER_00]: He said he's in charge of the red flag for the first game. 12:37.736 --> 12:45.360 [SPEAKER_00]: It had been suggested that somebody else might throw the red flag since there's the option to designate, not the head coach, to be the flag thrower, 12:45.960 --> 12:55.008 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't think he ever had any intention of giving that up and he jealous the guards that privilege as being part of the office, so I don't expect him really ever to give it up. 12:55.568 --> 13:02.714 [SPEAKER_00]: John Simpson was out of practice a little bit today, he said he had a minor injury, he didn't have his normal spot the whole day at left guard. 13:03.334 --> 13:05.875 [SPEAKER_00]: He expects Bullock to play some of those centering guard. 13:05.895 --> 13:08.276 [SPEAKER_00]: That's a problem I've talked about in general this team. 13:08.296 --> 13:20.580 [SPEAKER_00]: They have five guys who all want to get center wraps, including Posec, Pinter, Gwen, Bullock, and Dawkins is still around camp, and he's a guy that could have gotten rid of already. 13:21.020 --> 13:31.542 [SPEAKER_00]: But they've got, you know, those centers are having to take a lot of snaps at other positions, most notably, you know, left and right guard, because they need bodies on the offensive line. 13:31.562 --> 13:32.963 [SPEAKER_00]: And so I would expect, we'll see some of that. 13:33.003 --> 13:40.984 [SPEAKER_00]: But Bullock is one who I would expect will get extended time at guard in this game, and probably some of the first action after the, 13:43.465 --> 13:50.092 [SPEAKER_00]: you know regular's leave will be Emory Jones and Bullock like taking time and I actually bore his will be out there. 13:50.432 --> 13:59.902 [SPEAKER_00]: So maybe the entire second half that Bullock plays some position whether that's center or guard and you know he indivated that might be the case. 14:01.509 --> 14:12.498 [SPEAKER_00]: He said the message for the UDFAs was run towards the opportunity, and he was also asked about his fourth down approach, and he said he'll take from his experience on the defense in terms of this. 14:12.659 --> 14:18.203 [SPEAKER_00]: And he plans to include how both sides are playing at that time in the game, by the very important concept. 14:18.624 --> 14:25.590 [SPEAKER_00]: And both the times the Ravens have lost a game of the Steelers where I thought a Neal was important, they didn't need of a ball. 14:26.687 --> 14:37.131 [SPEAKER_00]: Perhaps without proper consideration for how poorly the Raven's defense was playing in each game at that time and how well the offense was playing relative to the defense. 14:37.151 --> 14:46.235 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's interesting that you would say say that exactly in terms of how we side is playing relatively because it is a very important component. 14:47.055 --> 14:57.347 [SPEAKER_00]: Next up with somebody I never seen speak before, but he's very impressive and that's Israel Woolfork, who's the QB coach, so he's Lamar's coach obviously, extremely impressive at the podium. 14:57.387 --> 15:00.650 [SPEAKER_00]: He talked about Jackson progressing the right way, taking criticism well. 15:01.131 --> 15:02.212 [SPEAKER_00]: He taught us something new. 15:02.252 --> 15:08.439 [SPEAKER_00]: I never knew about this before, but he talked about doils offence being left-footed. 15:08.879 --> 15:12.403 [SPEAKER_00]: and what that means is the left foot is forward in shotgun stance. 15:12.804 --> 15:16.888 [SPEAKER_00]: And so there's a little things that the quarterback can do out of that and just go over some. 15:17.809 --> 15:22.034 [SPEAKER_00]: Each, each left and right foot forward has certain advantages. 15:22.836 --> 15:44.869 [SPEAKER_00]: The Aaron Rodgers is a left-footed guy, Patrick Mahomes has always been a right-footed guy and Tom Brady is done both, but one of the things that left-footed guys who put their left-foot forward is that it's much harder for zone cornerbacks to read where they want to go with the football, because the initial step looks very similar whether they're left-footed or right-footed. 15:45.409 --> 15:58.819 [SPEAKER_00]: And in a right-footed thing, if they start to make a plant-foot step initially, which is often the case, to get the ball out right away, then cornerbacks read that very quickly and break on the ball. 15:59.499 --> 16:02.662 [SPEAKER_00]: And left footed, apparently, gives away less. 16:03.362 --> 16:10.129 [SPEAKER_00]: If you read this if you train Google it or something that there's all kinds of stuff about Oh, that means all the plays are reversed and the boots go to the left side. 16:10.149 --> 16:20.299 [SPEAKER_00]: That's not what they're talking about at all But what Wolfirk is talking about is which foot is up in shotgun and the next time the Mars at center, which will be next time you see it will be in the in the very first game 16:20.679 --> 16:22.180 [SPEAKER_00]: unless you're going to practice at some point. 16:23.120 --> 16:24.261 [SPEAKER_00]: Look for how Lamar's feet are. 16:24.681 --> 16:29.883 [SPEAKER_00]: Is he a left foot forward or right foot forward guy or does he switch during the game or exactly how does it go? 16:30.483 --> 16:38.767 [SPEAKER_00]: It'd be interesting to see if he can maintain a high level of comfort with playing differently than he has to his career to this point. 16:39.387 --> 16:46.009 [SPEAKER_00]: He talked about Lamar's outstanding understanding of space and arm angles, very high level. 16:46.709 --> 16:53.772 [SPEAKER_00]: He also talked about Lamar being the best second-blade quarterback in the entire league, but Wolfork wants to get more out of him on the first flight. 16:54.192 --> 17:02.915 [SPEAKER_00]: Something we've always talked about with Lamar is Kenny become a more timing-based quarterback to get the ball out quickly, to get the ball on target. 17:03.576 --> 17:09.362 [SPEAKER_00]: And he's always been a guy where it's wait for the break and then wait wait throw kind of thing. 17:09.683 --> 17:18.613 [SPEAKER_00]: So he is reading the spacing between that defender and the offensive player time to decide after the break. 17:18.953 --> 17:41.453 [SPEAKER_00]: kind of get that ball to it and we've talked about how that kind of minimizes the value of say a Rashad Bateman who's ability to put wiggle on a cornerback leaves that job to him and not to Lamar in terms of making that cornerback go away and Lamar is just responsible for getting the ball there on time and on the spot. 17:41.493 --> 17:45.176 [SPEAKER_00]: So a player like Bateman could obviously certainly benefit from that. 17:47.026 --> 17:56.136 [SPEAKER_00]: He talked about the reducing the sack rate and one of the things he talked about was very good is that he thought that, you know, this wasn't just an offensive line problem. 17:56.156 --> 18:07.027 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I judged that this was a quarterback problem as well is that he wants to set pocket depth so the offensive tackles know how to best manage their blocks. 18:07.567 --> 18:12.808 [SPEAKER_00]: great point by the way, you can't have a pocket. 18:13.248 --> 18:16.589 [SPEAKER_00]: It's a quarterback is always giving you a different drop depth. 18:16.769 --> 18:27.911 [SPEAKER_00]: And Chris some of that's on the Mar for not being consistent about how far he drops, but some of it's only offensive line in the middle for giving up pressure up the middle, which forces him to drop back further. 18:27.951 --> 18:34.352 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's a combined thing, but Lamar even when he's played with good offensive lines is not always dropped consistently. 18:34.692 --> 18:35.612 [SPEAKER_00]: So this is something that, 18:37.096 --> 18:38.465 [SPEAKER_00]: Wolfwick is trying to work with him on. 18:39.455 --> 18:42.937 [SPEAKER_00]: And I asked them specifically about Lamar's reading of leverage. 18:43.297 --> 18:46.279 [SPEAKER_00]: And I said, you know, have you seen any reduction of that? 18:46.319 --> 18:47.740 [SPEAKER_00]: Given this is his ninth year, he said no. 18:47.840 --> 18:50.442 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think that's exactly the way I would read it as well. 18:50.862 --> 18:57.066 [SPEAKER_00]: And it's interesting because it wouldn't necessarily be the reading of leverage that would be the problem. 18:57.106 --> 18:59.948 [SPEAKER_00]: It's the reacting to the reading of leverage, this is the problem. 19:00.408 --> 19:07.152 [SPEAKER_00]: And the best athlete of all time, maybe the most comparable to Jackson in terms of being able to read leverage, is maybe 19:09.353 --> 19:16.254 [SPEAKER_00]: And if you watch him fight list and some of the guys Cleveland, William, some of the guys he fought before the layoff, I mean, just nobody could hit him. 19:16.274 --> 19:18.315 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, he did happen occasionally. 19:18.335 --> 19:20.695 [SPEAKER_00]: He did get knocked down a couple of times during that era. 19:20.775 --> 19:26.877 [SPEAKER_00]: But basically, you know, he was so adept at slipping or moving away from a punch. 19:27.697 --> 19:31.237 [SPEAKER_00]: And it was really that the ropa doped style came in in his second career. 19:31.257 --> 19:38.479 [SPEAKER_00]: That's, you know, the form in era where he, you know, learned how to take a punch extremely well and, you know, turtle up and whatnot. 19:39.580 --> 19:42.662 [SPEAKER_00]: to do that, but the great leverage reading, that was all the way to the first era. 19:42.682 --> 19:53.251 [SPEAKER_00]: So you think that maybe Lamar Jackson would lose some of the ability to do that with age, but, or, you know, maybe the ability to do it even though it could still read it, but he didn't think so. 19:53.331 --> 19:56.474 [SPEAKER_00]: And that's the way I have seen it so far. 19:56.534 --> 20:00.437 [SPEAKER_00]: I think we saw it again, even in the final game against Pittsburgh this last year. 20:00.477 --> 20:05.221 [SPEAKER_00]: So I'm looking for a big year from Lamar and I think everything, all the signs from speed, 20:06.822 --> 20:13.132 [SPEAKER_00]: He's prepped for a very big year right now that I think will be another heavy mesh point year. 20:13.453 --> 20:19.723 [SPEAKER_00]: So if you want Lamar Jackson to be a pure pocket quarterback, you're probably going to be very disappointed, but I think he's still going to be extremely effective. 20:20.535 --> 20:22.136 [SPEAKER_00]: Tyler Huntley was at the stand next. 20:22.176 --> 20:29.180 [SPEAKER_00]: He talked about signing early this year, put him in a better position to learn the playbook earlier, which is a good point for a backup quarterback. 20:29.460 --> 20:34.423 [SPEAKER_00]: They're often kind of an afterthought to the free agency period. 20:34.463 --> 20:38.286 [SPEAKER_00]: It might even be a guy you try and get cheap after he's run out of other options. 20:38.366 --> 20:47.471 [SPEAKER_00]: And Tyler signed earlier, probably a little bit more demand for him as a backup quarterback after winning a couple games in very impressive 20:50.708 --> 20:53.670 [SPEAKER_00]: And finally, we had Ozzy and Pernel McFee come forward. 20:53.710 --> 20:58.313 [SPEAKER_00]: And Pernel McFee, apparently, was signing a one day contractive end-is-career as a raven. 20:58.613 --> 21:03.416 [SPEAKER_00]: They never really announced that, but they had kind of a framed picture and McFee's family with there. 21:03.557 --> 21:06.599 [SPEAKER_00]: Ozzy came up and introduced him and talked about, 21:07.839 --> 21:09.220 [SPEAKER_00]: He's what it means to be a Raven. 21:09.240 --> 21:16.105 [SPEAKER_00]: He's one of the guys there'll be a lot of other Ravens who who would be on that list too, but he's one of the guys that it's very obvious. 21:16.825 --> 21:20.628 [SPEAKER_00]: Pernel's been working as a coach here this season. 21:20.648 --> 21:21.768 [SPEAKER_00]: He's been working with both. 21:22.969 --> 21:38.398 [SPEAKER_00]: Robinson and y'all and with the outside linebackers general obviously and and he Talked about those beat guys being guys who had those kick inside traits that McFee himself had McFee by the way For those of you who didn't ever saw him play and it's now been you know 21:39.158 --> 21:53.642 [SPEAKER_00]: 14 years since his first stint with the Ravens ended with Super Bowl 47, but the guy was an incredibly impressive explosive first step that made him almost impossible to contain even on double teams. 21:54.022 --> 21:58.543 [SPEAKER_00]: And so if he would cross the face of the guard and get in that agap on his side, 21:59.663 --> 22:03.766 [SPEAKER_00]: You know, he would occupy two blockers and he would often beat double-team blocks. 22:03.786 --> 22:10.170 [SPEAKER_00]: In fact, when I've looked at it over the years, he's been one of the guys who's most consistently beaten double-teams. 22:11.671 --> 22:16.895 [SPEAKER_00]: Almost a natural corkscrew player without having to go down to the ground to exploit this. 22:16.935 --> 22:18.956 [SPEAKER_00]: He's more like a crowbar player, honestly. 22:18.976 --> 22:22.218 [SPEAKER_00]: Got to get between opposing offensive linemen. 22:22.238 --> 22:25.960 [SPEAKER_00]: So, a great raving, very much to me, a raving legend. 22:25.981 --> 22:26.541 [SPEAKER_00]: If you look at the 2014, 22:28.522 --> 22:30.784 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, actually he was still with the team in 2014. 22:30.824 --> 22:48.116 [SPEAKER_00]: What didn't end with Super Bowl 47, but in 2014, when the Ravens had a big sack here, I think they had 56 sack this year, and Doomerville and Sugs got all the credit, but I'll tell you from an analyst watching that year note out about a Pernel McFeed drove that pass rush from the inside. 22:48.156 --> 22:49.317 [SPEAKER_00]: It was the, it was the, the, the 22:50.378 --> 22:58.517 [SPEAKER_00]: responsibility, the requirement to get him doubled up on the inside that freed up you know doomerville and sucks to have really big years that year. 23:00.173 --> 23:03.636 [SPEAKER_00]: He said he wanted his legacy to be his violent style. 23:03.756 --> 23:04.416 [SPEAKER_00]: And I love that. 23:04.496 --> 23:09.340 [SPEAKER_00]: A lot of players don't necessarily talk about violence, but he had violent hands and he had very quick feet. 23:09.961 --> 23:12.122 [SPEAKER_00]: And that's something you want to see. 23:12.142 --> 23:22.210 [SPEAKER_00]: I sometimes have compared his handplay to playing a video game that he's just having to tap that tap on the other guy very quickly and violently and it's just, 23:23.251 --> 23:46.036 [SPEAKER_00]: Almost your arm length almost doesn't matter in that situation if he can get off three times as many punches as you can That's exaggerating slightly, but extremely fast violent hands made him made him a great player Said his message for the young players was to stand in the moment and take advantage of the more snaps him many of these guys And he made this point I thought it was very interesting haven't played a lot of snaps and so they get into a preseason game 23:46.656 --> 24:07.395 [SPEAKER_00]: And they're used to playing three or four snaps on defense against the against the third string quarterback who never gets very many snaps or the second string quarterback who doesn't get that many snaps and then not used to have it to go an entire half and play most of the snaps if not all of them if there maybe a defensive back or something and and that's something that players need to be ready for. 24:08.475 --> 24:10.376 [SPEAKER_00]: and I thought that was an interesting pointy made. 24:10.496 --> 24:19.421 [SPEAKER_00]: It's anyway, great to see Bronel MacFee up there, and he was clearly very honored by the moment and had wonderful things to say about the organization. 24:20.642 --> 24:29.686 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel kind of bad for him, because I think he kind of wanted to go up there, kind of have Ozzy introduce him and say his piece and then walk on, but everybody wanted to ask him questions. 24:29.826 --> 24:35.449 [SPEAKER_00]: And I was the first one to start that, and I wasn't the last, they were plenty more after me. 24:37.241 --> 24:40.401 [SPEAKER_00]: Pernell, Great Player, and glad to see him retiring, Raven. 24:40.967 --> 24:43.869 [SPEAKER_00]: That's going to do it for today's episode of Camp News here. 24:44.909 --> 24:51.073 [SPEAKER_00]: Look forward if you would a Friday morning GM tomorrow and we'll be recording that on Thursday evening. 24:51.413 --> 25:03.940 [SPEAKER_00]: If you want to get a question in and you're happy to be watching this fairly early, you've got to get it by 530 on Thursday and that's generally speaking when I want your questions and you can send them in to film study, mailbag at gmail.com. 25:03.960 --> 25:06.782 [SPEAKER_00]: That's the easiest place to get them in. 25:07.022 --> 25:10.024 [SPEAKER_00]: Thanks again for listening and we'll talk to you next time on film study.
