00:00All right, man, we got Falcons camp, guys.
00:02It starts a week from Wednesday.
00:04That means, according to my watch and calendar, we are 10 days away.
00:0810 days away.
00:0910 days till we see the makeup of the Tommy Reese offense.
00:13What?
00:14You thought I was going to say something about MPJ?
00:18Zing!
00:20It'll end around.
00:21You didn't see that one coming, did you?
00:22For the last couple days, Carl, I believe, is writing these scripts.
00:25He denies it.
00:26I want to make one thing clear.
00:28Here, there's only one Mr. Voice, and it's me.
00:33I do believe that Carl's been in cahoots with Mr. Voice with a pro to a message last week,
00:39and a lot of Michael Penix Jr. fans very upset, feeling that we're making a mockery of this whole process.
00:43Well, guess what?
00:44The actual process that we can finally analyze will start starting next Wednesday.
00:49Um, or it won't.
00:50You know?
00:52Maybe it will.
00:53You know?
00:5510 days till we see the makeup of the Tommy Reese offense.
00:59Or 15 until...
01:00You thought I was going to say something about MPJ?
01:02He's cleared for 11 on 11.
01:03That's what we want to say.
01:04Or 18 or 21 or never.
01:06I don't know.
01:06We've gone round and round on this.
01:07As I said last week, some people get the jokes.
01:09Some people don't get the jokes.
01:11All jokes aside, though, I just want to get there alongside you guys Wednesday and have them tell me,
01:17Hey, we are green light for a competition.
01:21Or, hey, he just couldn't get there and the offense is to us and here we go.
01:25Like, I just want to know day one of camp.
01:27And that doesn't mean the quarterback's handed out if you have a competition.
01:33I just want to know that we are headed towards one.
01:35Are we going to get to camp and then have five more days, eight more days of having to debate
01:39whether or not there's going to be a competition in the second week of...
01:43You know what I mean?
01:44I mean, look, if you talk to orthopedists out there now, again, or Mike was asked, of course, you know,
01:48Michael says he's going to be ready.
01:50Of course he is.
01:50And he's got to believe that.
01:51He's got to, you know, build himself up.
01:53And hopefully, you know, things have gone better than what some orthopedists said would be the true, you know, recovery
01:58time.
01:59If you take it back to week 11 of the NFL in November, that might mean it's realistically maybe closer
02:04to Labor Day.
02:05That he's going to be ready to do everything you need him to do to compete against...
02:07And in that case, there's no competition.
02:09Correct.
02:09And that was always our fear.
02:10And that's the only thing we've ever tried to communicate.
02:13Now, sometimes we have fun with it tongue-in-cheek.
02:15We're not dogging Michael Penix Jr.
02:17These guys, you guys are so Sally sensitive on this stuff.
02:21Right?
02:21He's either going to win the job or he isn't.
02:23Nothing Carl and I say is going to make any difference about this.
02:25Either he'll be able to compete or he won't.
02:28Right now, though, the one thing that Carl and I have said, and I think Abe would agree, Tua has
02:31an advantage.
02:32Because he's been able to do all the things they've been asking of him.
02:34And Tua's a better quarterback by his own experience.
02:37Now, it didn't end well for him in Miami, but his completion percentage, the amount of experience, the numbers of
02:42touchdowns, everything, he's got it over Michael Penix Jr. right now.
