| 0:00.0 | be a freelance NFL network analytics expert thanks Cynthia for joining us today so glad to be here guys |
| 0:06.1 | you know I spend preseason with the Broncos so the Broncos should be here I whatever this is actually |
| 0:11.9 | where we started the preseason yeah yeah exactly started should like you said should have ended here |
| 0:16.1 | are we just a bone nick's ankle away from being here right now I'm gonna say yes yeah I mean-line. I'm an O-line person. I don't know if you know this about me, but I spend my whole master's degree studying O-lines, and when your O-line plays that well, you deserve me in those different things. And the Broncos O'il line is that good? Yes. Yes. Yes. I finished my postseason rankings of in the regular season. The postseason I have to do separately. It's a little different. But in the regular season they have the number one online for me. So how do you go about finding that? So I track it using a combination of the next-gen stats and computer vision. So I track things. And then I don't know play, so I call and ask offensive coordinators what was supposed to happen on things when it looks weird or not. I cheat. There you go. That's the way to never answer when I call it. That's about to play. That's because you have to be like, play 63. What was that and what happened? Or whatever, you name the play, whatever. |
| 1:12.6 | That's how analytics should be done. |
| 1:14.6 | Well, you gotta ask. |
| 1:15.6 | Because you don't know the context. |
| 1:16.6 | I don't know if the last one, |
| 1:18.6 | Garret Bulls was supposed to roll here. |
| 1:19.6 | I don't know. |
| 1:20.6 | Like, I didn't make up the play. |
| 1:22.6 | Like, whatever, so. |
| 1:23.6 | So you were here with the Broncos in preseason. I was. Talk about the growth that you saw just from training camp into obviously the end of the season. |
| 1:32.0 | I mean, number one, we knew the defense was going to be good. |
| 1:35.0 | We need the defense was really good. |
| 1:36.5 | Sean Payton told us in a conference room in some hotel around here somewhere. |
| 1:40.0 | I don't actually know where I am geographically right now, that as long as Bo Nix did not take unnecessary sacks that this team could make it to the Super Bowl that's what he said and that is exactly what happened she said something about his ankles too listen we didn't know it's true it's true though that's a one thing wow wow I'm the bad guy You know, it all had just like right on the parade there, but he was right. So, what I really saw was a lot of growth from the receivers as well and that chemistry that, you know, you knew Cortland Sutton was good. But was Troy Franklin going to take the step forward? Second season is always a question mark. We don't know. You know, and then, of course, |
| 2:17.7 | you have all the other guys that are all of the same build. You know, he comes from the, |
| 2:21.0 | Sean comes to the Parcell's background where they want big body ball catchers, and they can |
| 2:26.1 | be a little slower if they can handle their contested catches. What do we see this season? |
| 2:32.3 | Pretty much that. Yeah. Pat Bryant. |
| 2:41.3 | I mean, some coaches are lying liars who lie. Not Sean. Sean's going to tell you. He's caused a shot. He does. He does. Yeah. How do you balance, how do we balance, like, |
