00:00Drake May is, first of all, you know, great win.
00:03It's very difficult to win on the road in the NFL.
00:06They blew out a team.
00:08I don't care.
00:08It doesn't matter how good the team was.
00:10They look fantastic.
00:13But Drake May, you know, had to come out for a couple plays.
00:16He, you know, hit his head hard off the turf.
00:19He was hit a lot in that game.
00:22Are you concerned with Drake May not sliding?
00:27He's so good now.
00:28This is the kind of things you look at.
00:31Are you concerned about injury with him?
00:35Well, so I think it's a good question, Fred.
00:38And I think this was a little bit of a step back, believe it or not, for Drake in terms of what they've been talking about with him in terms of tucking and running, right, and letting the play progress out.
00:52And he even mentioned that after the game when I asked him about 21 of 23 passing.
00:59What's your reaction to that?
01:00And he said, I should have had more because there were plays where if he had let it develop.
01:06So I think I'm not concerned, Fred, but I actually do think, like, if we want to start with a sort of a critical analysis of the game, that's one area where you want to see him go in the other direction.
01:19And this week coming up against the Browns, against a good defense, maybe don't run as much because there are more plays to be made in the passing game.
01:30Yeah.
01:30And we mentioned, you know, he had been he got hit a little bit yesterday.
01:34Was that an offensive line problem?
01:39Was he holding on to the ball too long?
01:41What was the issues with the quarterback hits and sacks?
01:45So probably I'm going to guess, Fred, a combination.
01:48I haven't had a chance to go through the full game, but it looked to me like the rookie left guard, Jared Wilson, had a couple pressures on him.
01:56And it's pretty good Tennessee Titans defensive line.
02:00Jeffrey Simmons is one of the best in the league.
02:01I know he didn't play the whole game.
02:03He got injured early with a hamstring.
02:05But I would say probably pin it a little bit more on that than than Drake himself on some of those hits.
02:13I guess, you know, it seemed like Vrabel, you know, he'd said they're the running game and, you know, he committed to it and they were had success.
02:22What was the difference in the running game that you saw yesterday?
02:26So I think when the offensive linemen were talking last week about just finishing longer than the.
02:33player that they're walking, sometimes it's a little bit more of a simplistic view, but I think that's what I saw.
02:40They they blocked better and in unison.
02:43So there's like combination blocks at the line of scrimmage look like they were working well together up front and and Ramondre hit the holes and maybe ran a little more fearlessly.
02:56So at times I thought last week there were, you know, there maybe was more to be had and there was some tentativeness because he wanted to make sure he came up with the ball at the end of the play.
03:06And I felt like in this game, he let it rip a little bit more.
