Summary

Haden, the former Cleveland Brown, on what makes playing in Pittsburgh special, on the difference between going to training camp with a losing program versus a winning program, on why he loves LeBron James, and his 2018 NBA highlight (spoiler: it involves LeBron). Clark on the highlights of his current training-camp trip (Buffalo, Cleveland, Philadelphia), on the joys of driving through the United States on the trip (a joy he and I share), and on a story he's writing about the importance in the NFL of the first two seconds of every offensive play. Cox on surviving the constant double-teams by the Patriots in the Super Bowl, on what motivation the Eagles still have after winning the Super Bowl, and on who he learns from when studying other NFL defensive linemen.

1:12.1	playing for his career and playing for his starting job.
1:16.4	No ifs, ants, or buts about it.
1:18.8	I think deep down he's ticked off about it.
1:21.4	He's not going to say that, but he's going to have to beat back the challenge
1:25.6	of Lamar Jackson. He's doing a great job in training camp so far. Let's go to the Philadelphia Eagles.
1:32.4	You know, I walked away from Philadelphia, especially after seeing a very, very sharp Carson Wentz,
