In a month and a half that I've been here, I can say part of my job, and it's going to continue to evolve, but part of my work now is helping to build the confidence of a lot of the students that I encountered. Back! Can you introduce yourself? My name is Karen Rose-Cover, and my title is Assistant Director of Career Services. And I primarily assist, you know, the graduate students with all career planning, career developments, making sure they're prepared in every way. If the job market is, has a reputation of being difficult, then your job and your relationship with them becomes even more important. I walked into higher education in 2008. Oh yeah, good timing. Exactly. So it was a challenging time, but it was so many, you know, learning lessons that I experienced, not just, you know, as a young professional, but just being able to equip our students with a little bit more preparation. And I think that's, that's carried me throughout the years, just knowing that the economy is not always going to be strong or healthy. And what happens to students? How do you prepare students for an unhealthy, you know, economy? There's an ongoing Spotify playlist for me to play for students in the shop. What is your contribution? Oh my gosh, probably like 90s R&B. Nice. Thank you. Yeah. You are hereby invited to the shop to take over the stereo for a day. The second one is Reggae and Soka. I mean Reggae and Soka makes everybody feel better.


Welcome to the studio at ITU Telecom World 2017 in Busan in the Republic of Korea where I'm very pleased to be joined in the studio today by Mohamed Madkur who is VP for Global Wireless Network Marketing for Huawei Technologies. Mohamed, thank you very much for joining us today. Thank you for having me. Now I'd like to start off by asking you about the future of the industry. How do you see the future of the industry developing in the next five to ten years? Well actually a great future. I mean I'm very bullish and optimistic and actually I'm glad that you mentioned industry without mentioning the type of the industry because the way I see it is it's going to be enormous change in all industries. But if we first talk about telecom industry, I wanted to start by saying that there's still an unaddressed segment when it comes to connectivity and broadband. Just to some data point like by 2025 we're looking at connecting two billion more people to the internet and about five million more households also. That's mainly in emerging markets but that's only from people perspective but we're also looking at connecting sensors that are attached to any physical device that is used by people in their daily life. So by doing all of this I believe we will reach the really truly better connected world. This is from telecom industry but the thing is this change that's happening and the disruption that's happening on that decade by the fast pace of technological innovation will also affect other industries. I would say telecom industry can affect transportation industry, energy, health, financial. So all of those can be affected by this advances and operators need to transform those kind of changes into business opportunities. How should operators carry the transform and adapt? Well, yeah, so let me start by the theme that ITU have this year which is smart digital transformation which is basically the only thing that can get the operators or the telcos to the point that they can have business sustainability. The way I look at transformation it is not a destination. It's kind of a journey of bunch of changes that will change carriers personalities. I would say that change can address three aspects, can address technology, can address business and it can also address operation. So this is really needed for business sustainability as I mentioned earlier. The acceleration for that change is fundamental. So it is not the matter of why do I do it, it's the matter of when can you do it and how fast you will do it. Talking about transformation itself, we should not underestimate the transformation of other entities in the ecosystem. I would say it is not limited transformation, it's not limited to only individual body. I think it will touch all aspects. We can see even contents, even devices are transforming, even vendors are transforming their way of living. Industry organizations need to transform. Last but not least, regulatory and policies also need to transform in a way to provide very fair and transparent policies that encourage this kind of environment as a whole. What do you think are the greatest challenges for the carriers? Yes, so there is no mistake about it, it is not a journey in the park. You know, transformation, you know, it's a good cause, but there are two roadblocks. I would say the first one is the conflict or maybe the imbalance between the long-term transformational goal and the immediate performance results. You know the pressure on the telcos to achieve certain financial KPI. That's a first roadblock, but I believe the second roadblock would be the culture resistance from inside the organization because, you know, the telcos have been in a comfortable, profitable zone for a long time and it is very hard to change. So I believe that this point, if we address that by bringing in talents that really understand that failure is not the end of it and that would solve that second issue. So those are the two challenges I can think of right now. And finally, what's the value of attending events for you, such as ITU, telecom, world and what would you hope to achieve here? So that's very important, but to answer this question, let me tell you something about what do we believe in. We believe that we cannot achieve this transformation for the whole industry by ourselves. We address, we focus on three points. We focus on cultivating application and services. We focus on opening the standard and virtualize the platform that allows those services to run on top of it. And we also believe in the integration between multi-vendors. And all of those actually address the two assets or the two strengths of carriers, which is connectivity and the cloud. Now, beside that, when we design our solutions or actually our ecosystem that we provide to carriers, we consider the cross trends between different things, between content, service, infrastructure, even between government needs, regulatory, all of those things. All of what I mentioned now, I guess this is the value for your event. So ITU brings in many leaders at different levels of the value chain. They represent different bodies in the industry ecosystem. If you couple that by good topics, like for example, emerging markets, like how to maximize the value of what the operators have, how to reinvent, how telcos can reinvent themselves. I think that kind of a mix will bring the value that not only will we perceive, I think the whole industry will perceive. So I would like to thank ITU for the good work that you guys have here in Busan. Well, we thank you for your support and for being here in the studio today. We wish you the very best of luck with it. Pleasure. Thank you. Thank you so much. Thank you.


And outside Africa, the European Parliament has ratified the post-Brexit-EU-UK trade deal. A key move to ensure that tariff and quarter-free trade continues. The trade and cooperation agreement has been operating provisionally since January. MEPs voted in favour by 660 votes to five, while 32 abstained. The UK's chief negotiator, Lord Frost, said the vote brings certainty and allows people to focus on the future. And also the news-friended President Emmanuel Macron's government will unveil a new anti-terrorism draft deal on Wednesday, days after the fatal stabbing of a police officer by an Islamist extremist. The deal aims to identify suspects before they carry out an attack and will turn temporary measures into permanent ones that could include extending a collaboration with telecom companies to review private communications and introduce the use of algorithms in online surveillance. The controversial deal led to demonstrations last year, despite a ban on public gatherings during the coronavirus pandemic. It aims to protect security forces from online incitement to violence by making it an offence to show the face or identity of any officer on duty when there is an attempt to damage their physical or psychological integrity.

Course Restore Upload your course to Moodle Cloud. It's possible to save a course you've made on one Moodle site and reuse it on a different Moodle site. When you save your course the process is called Backup and when you add it or upload it to a different site the process is called Restore. In this video we'll look at how you can restore the practice course you made during our Learn Moodle MOOC on your own personal Moodle Cloud site. You can also restore your course to the Moodle site of your school or organisation but the way you do it may be different so you need to check with your administrator. First make sure you saved or backed up your practice course using the video on Course Backup to help you. Make sure you have it in a safe place on your computer. Our teacher Sam has her practice course on her desktop here and she's logged into her Moodle Cloud site where she's an administrator. You may not be an administrator on your organisation's Moodle site and that's why you should ask for their advice if you want to restore your practice course there. We click Site Administration in the nav drawer Find Courses and click Restore Course. We can then import the backup file by clicking the button to upload it or as our teacher Sam is doing here dragging and dropping it in. When we click the Restore button we're prompted to check the backup details and we scroll down and click Continue. Note how it appears we are doing in reverse what we did when we backed up the course previously. On the next screen we decide if we want to add this as a new course or into an existing course. Again you might experience this differently if you're restoring to your organisation's Moodle site and you don't have administrator rights. If we restore it as a new course we need to choose the category. Our teacher only has one category Miscellaneous on her Moodle Cloud site at the moment so she clicks that button. Clicking Continue then takes us to another screen to check the settings and we press Next again. We can move through this quickly because we've already checked the settings. We can edit the name and details of the course and decide which activities to keep. We move on again. We do a final check and then press Perform Restore. Once the process is complete there is a green success message and Sam's practice course from Learn Moodle is now available on her Moodle Cloud site.


I mean, that's a wrap. Why even play the rest of the season? Is a Bill's Eagle Super Bowl in the desert in Arizona, case closed. To confirm or deny this, we have Lane Johnson in the building, not really. He's in his bro-barm, joining us shortly. Mark Ingram will bring the energy as always. That really hurt. Chris Collins, we're stopping by the show now. Welcome to Up and At, I'm so many. Yes, so little time. Week two wrapped up last night. Lots to get you first, though. There was that scary scene in Buffalo last night, Bill's cornerback, Dane Jackson, taken to the hospital after suffering a possible neck injury. We have great news to report this morning, according to NFL Network's Mike Garfellow, he was released from the hospital. All indications say that he avoided major injury. We'd, of course, from everyone up in Adams, behind the cameras and behind the scenes. And we, of course, wishing Dane a speedy recovery. The takeaway from this epic game is, of course, the Bill's are as advertised, which is so hard to do that we cannot look past it. So much hype. Even last night, you got Bruce Smith out there. You got Jim Kelly standing on the field, leading chance. This isn't the postseason. This isn't a Super Bowl thing. This is week two of the NFL season. There is so much pressure. Such hype, but they are that team. Diggs is him. Allen and Diggs are them. They made the big swing with Bonn. I'm mostly impressed, though, with the meaningful additions they made that flew under the radar a bit. How about Roger Saffold cementing them as one of the best O-lines? Nobody talked about that one. Them not missing a beat without Dable. So impressed. And the fact that they were missing, if you take a look at a list here, Gabe Davis, no Trey White, no Ed Oliver, and they still look like this. These are guys that they were missing. Micah Hyde, who left injured in the third quarter. Week two to me didn't teach me anything. It reinforced what I already know. It did solidify one thing to me, though. No player. No one out there is having a better time than Josh Allen. He is all smiles. He has this youthful, magnetic exuberance.  And why that's so important to point out as we continue this ride with the Bills is that that is so difficult to do.  I'm just out there doing what I love, getting the ball to this guy, this guy, and that guy, and making big plays. Now, we learned a little bit more, I think, from the Eagles and the Vikings game because Hertz is the story of the day. Maybe the week, maybe the entire season. Who knows, 17 for 20 for 251 yards and a touchdown in the first half. Two touchdowns and 50 yards on the ground. That's just the first half, people. That is insane. There's been times accuracy has been in question. Nope. I saw the deep ball. People think that he doesn't have. Yup, saw that one a lot last night. He got the ball to everyone. Smith, Goddard, Watkins. It was also the Darius Lesho. Two interceptions could have been for. Maybe it should have been for. He had an answer to Justin Jefferson that I didn't think was possible. This Eagles team is winning the division, as I so said, right behind me during my preseason predictions. And I'm willing to say here on Up and Atoms that if Jalen is able to continue this type of success through the air, this could be the best team in the NFC. I am not joking. And we'll see if our first guest agrees. And here he is joining us from, I believe, the Bro Barn, if I'm not mistaken, a Super Bowl champion, three-time pro bowler, all smiles as one of the pillars of the Eagles offensive line. Lane Johnson, hi. How you doing? I'm so good. Congrats. I'm going to just bring in Marissa. Look, I'm here in LA. I want to get the vibe check on Philly. But this is my associate producer, Marissa, who's obsessed and even in LA is going crazy. Tell me about what's going on in Philly. Yeah, last night was a big game for us. They had a big week against Green Bay last week. So we knew we had a big challenge. I felt like Jalen played out of his mind and the defense really had a great game. Slay, unbelievable game. Two picks could have had, like you said, probably four, but just playing lights out and, yeah, man, it was a big win.   He's the toast of the town. What do you see in him? What's the biggest difference that you've noticed between this year and last year? I just feel like there's no substitution for experience. The more you play, the more you have the ability to learn more about the game and learn from yourself.  I just think the things that you can do with his arm and legs are very unique and, you know, makes it very hard for the defense to control him. I feel like offensive linemen normally love to run block lane, and you guys run more than a lot of teams do. You were number one, the number one run game in the entire league last year. How fun is that? And how much do you prefer it? Well, like the past, like for like an offensive lineman, like there's very little upsides of the game, like the best thing you can do is not make a mistake. But like, open up the game with like true empty or something. That's like jumping out of an airplane. You don't know if your parachute's working. It's just, you're ready to rock and roll. But yeah, no, it definitely, it's a lot of fun getting the tee off and yeah. And I guess some flit playing instead of just taking it. Yeah, it sounds pretty fun there. Okay, we had Joe Thomas on the show, which was very fun. And he sung your offensive lines praises. Take a look. I think the Eagles have the best offensive line in the NFL because they have no weaknesses. It's also because they're not injured because they do things the right way during training camp. If you look at their tackles, they probably have the best duo of tackles in the NFL, Jordan Milada and Lane Johnson. Lane Johnson been doing it for a long time. High praise from a future Hall of Famer. Listen, you've been on a Super Bowl team. This is that kind of an offensive line. Does this team feel special? I feel like we're very talented. I mean, obviously there's a lot of work to be done, I think, eliminate the distractions. And really, I mean, going into each game, feeling like you're outgunned or outmatched. And you have to prepare that way. I think it all starts in practice. And yeah, we just have a lot of good energy and kind of looking forward to next week against Washington. And yeah, I know we have a lot of ability. So it's just about taking it one week at a time. Lane, you're not even celebrating. You're already on to the next team stop. Yeah, I mean, it was a late night, too. When we started at 8.30, you probably got home at 1.30. So you give me a third day off, too. Well, I love that you're joining us. What's that torture device to your right? You're talking about getting better. What are we looking at here in the bro barn? I'm actually, I'm in the corner, it's like where we store equipment. So there's a lot of bars and stuff, so yeah, beware. It looks like a big- Yeah, my house is very chirpy right now, so I had to get out here. I'm sure everybody's probably still celebrating. I love that. Let's talk about your coach. He's been chirpy a time or two. And we love to hear it.  What's your best Nick Siriani story? He's just an extreme competitor. Like when it comes to anything, he's very competitive. I guess the funny storyline last year was like, he was talking about our team planting the seed and sometimes it takes a while to read the benefits of it. And so it was like our season last year. I think we started like one in three or maybe one in five, something like that. And so we got a lot of flags for that. I think there was something to do with the tennis match. I think he got a little bit chirpy. I think it was a giant stand or something, like some fan. But yeah, just a little friendly chatter. So I thought that was pretty funny. Chirping and chatter out of Nick Siriani. So much credit to him for what this team has been able to do in a short period of time. I want to talk about AJ Brown. I've talked about him a lot here on Up in Adams, this new show that I'm doing. And he's obviously always open. I think he's the best addition made in the off season as far as wide receivers are concerned. What did he bring to the team that was missing? He just has a presence about him, a physicality. When you look at him, he's 6'1", probably 2'25", 2'30".  And yeah, he just has that dog in him. I think he sets a tone for the room. You know, he sets a tone for the room. I mean, really for the building. I mean, he's just a very special talent. That's a lot of, you know, you need characteristics. But yeah, he does, he sets a tone for watching. Yeah, you can tell out there and what a connection between Jaylen Hertz and himself. So all week long, the framing, you know, people who wear these microphones and put on the makeup and do the whole thing and sit with this lighting, they are all saying, how can you stop the force that is Justin Jefferson? I was one of those people, but it should have been, how can Justin Jefferson possibly get busy when he's going up against Darius Slay? You could tell watching last night from where I was sitting on my couch that it meant something to him. Did it feel like the defense was extra locked in this week because that was a message sending bounce back?  But yeah, I think, you know, talking about Slay, just be played out of his mind, you know, it's very hard to be a true cover corner in this league, going against the best athletes, you know, on the field, week in week out. Yeah, I played out of his mind and he's a, man, he was voted captain this year. He's a great leader for all the young guys. It's a good example and how he plays is just unreal. So it's fun watching. Is he underappreciated? I feel like, you know, he's got a great personality, but just the way he plays his ball skills, how fast he is, he's a dynamic player. He's unreal. You mentioned Washington. It just hit me as I haven't even looked at, I don't look at that schedule till tomorrow, but you're gonna face the old quarterback who you protected for so many years. You're facing Carson Wentz. How will you feel playing against him? Man, you're really going to the game, just trying to be an emotionalist. It's not like I'm out there trying to tackle him. So it's like, you know, what's your defense? Well, I want to win this game, that's the plan. But yeah, that's really what it boils down to. You've been in the league 10 years, it's incredible. Congratulations on that. And you have a very unique relationship with your fan base there in Philadelphia and you're a Texas guy. You enter Philly, different worlds. I even saw a video of you that they had up yesterday where you're telling Philly fans to get drunk, responsibly of course, but to go have a good time before this game. What does that fan base mean to you? I think they listened.  I mean, people tailgate and that's what people look for too all year. And really, they bring the energy week in, week out. And it's truly a football channel like Texas, like you remember in the movie Friday at Lights. And it's how this place is here. People love football. It's all they, that's all they know, that's all they love. So when you get a crowd like that and they get involved into it into a game, it makes it special. Yeah, there's just a couple more questions for you. There was a fun tweet yesterday that producers pulled up that somebody, you know, everyone's talking Superbowl now after how you guys look offensively and defensively. A Bill's Eagles Superbowl in Phoenix has Bill Barnwell during waste management open week. Yikes, your thoughts. What does Nick Saban say? It's all rat poison. It's all bad for you just to read any of it to get too much into it. It all makes for good headlines, but like I said, it goes down to week in, week out and being consistent. And so that's something we got under there.  You said it, eliminate distractions.  And last year, you were detailing your challenges with anxiety. There was an intense NFL season, of course, that you were playing through. Has that approached or it sort of changed your approach to this year and any thoughts on life post football? Yeah, I mean, it's just really about adapting and learning more about yourself. I thought that's what I ultimately did was just learning more about myself and became better at the end of it. I thought I can play my best football and really in a good headspace. But yeah, you know, talking to people, I thought a lot of the younger generation was just a new dynamic that kids face nowadays. And so I think just talking and being open to people is the best remedy. What were some of the resources that you sort of took advantage of? You've been so open about this. I talked to Brandon Marshall about it on Friday. Everyone's open about mental health now, especially in the NFL. It's really great to see. What were some of the resources you took advantage of last season into this season that you can maybe share? I really just seeing, you know, sports psychologists or therapists, you just really had to learn more about yourself and break down some of the walls that you may have, you know, being prideful about stuff. Yeah, I would say that. It's really about communication and being honest with yourself. I feel like men sometimes can be very stubborn. I'm not gonna speak for myself, can be very stubborn. And so sometimes it's hard for us to, I guess, fully express ourselves. And so learning to do that and being open with your teammates, I feel like in the end it's just the best thing. It's about communication. We are communicating to you. We love to have you on the show. We are celebrating a Victory Tuesday with Lane Johnson. Go get yourselves some Mickey Mouse pancakes and mimosas in there. Yeah, we'll go find that. All right, thank you so much, Lane Johnson. Of course, we love having you. Big Eagles message sending win. The bills to care business as well. Coming up, we will dive into the fantasy waiver wire. Mark Ingram on the show, Chris Collinsworth will be stopping by. Can we queue up that Justin Fields sneak situation that he hated so much? Let's make up Chris Matt. This season is going to fly. We are officially through two weeks of the fantasy football season already. And you've got to make some roster adjustments. I'm here to help you do that with some waiver wire choices. It's time for, hey, pick me up first. How about Jared Goff finishing 7th at the quarterback spot last week after a four touchdown performance against the commanders? He is still out there in a whopping 85% of leagues right now. Listen, listen, listen. If you went all in on Tre Lantz or if you went in on Daft Prescott, I like this option much more than Jimmy G as a replacement because you know you're going to get consistent volume through the air. Goff averaging 37 and 1 half dropbacks per game so far this year. While Jimmy isn't the most consistent fantasy option because the Niners do like to lean on that run game. Jared over everybody. Let's move on to Darrell Williams. He finished as an RB1 this week after James Conner went down with an ankle injury, 10 touches, 62 total yards, and a touchdown in the second half alone. That's bananas. It was a win over the Raiders. It does not sound like Conner is going to be getting a significant amount of time on the bench, but if he is out this week, I do think it looks worth snagging Williams, getting him in your lineup against the Rams. Garrett Wilson up next. Wow, he made it clear. Who's the numero uno targetto in New York? Oh, he is. He racked up eight catches for 102 yards and two touchdowns on 14 targets. Unbelievable performance by him, which you love to see. You cannot beat the kind of volume 11 targets per game over the first two weeks of the season. He's got upside as well. And he's still available in about half of leagues. So grab him or you will not get another chance. I'm telling you grab him now. Noah Brown through two weeks leading the Cowboys and catches and yards and touchdowns. Yep, ahead of one CD lamb, Yauza. We were wondering who'd step up with Amory Cooper and Cedric Wilson gone. Mike Gallop, steel sideline. This is the answer. Noah Brown caught five for 91 and a touchdown and the Cowboys win over the Bengals. He's got some chemistry with Cooper Rush. Yes, the undefeated Cooper Rush. Future franchise quarterback Cooper Rush. Future Hall of Famer. Yep, Yellowjack at Goldjack, got it. Cooper Rush. And I think we see his volume increase seriously though, even more now because we are hearing that Dalton Schultz is banged up. Last but not least, here we go. Logan Thomas, you guessed it, found the end zone last week. 10th highest scoring tight end so far this season and he's still out there and available in over 80% of leagues. He was hurt on the sideline for much of the season last year. Let's not forget though, the year before, or maybe I guess it's two years before. No, no, 2020, he was third among tight ends in PPR behind only Travis Kelsey and Darren Lawler. So if you lost Schultz or if you've been streaming tight ends, scoop up Logan Thomas against an Eagles defense that's been generous to opposing tight ends. Ugh, I love when you start getting into the point of the season where you can build up, oh, they're generous against tight ends. They let points in through the air and on the ground and here we go. As we see, Jared Goff, Jared Williams, Garrett Wilson's crushing it in New York, Noah Brown and Logan Thomas. You're not scooping up our next guess up, Waverwires, because he's 100% owned or should be Mark Ingram joining the program. After this, we'll talk a little Saints. We'll talk a little bro-ha-ha. How could anybody wanna fight with a team that you're on? Look at that face, Mark. Who would wanna fight your team? I don't get it. Chris Collins or on the show either. Both, both of them, next. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm ready for war. I'm destined for greatness. That's where to my homie that lead. I'm up on the scene. I told you I'm up on the scene, yeah. I'm ready for war, I'm ready for war tonight. I'm ready to side of the scar, to side of the scar tonight. Let's go. I'm not supposed to have favors, but I obviously do. Curly in his 12th season in the NFL, he just went over 10,000 yards from scrimmage for his career. Please welcome St. Superstar running back and dear friend of the show, Mark Ingram. Hello. Hey, what's up, Kay? How you doing? I'm so good. I know it's your off day. It's early in the morning. Thanks for hanging out with me today. Let's get into some football here off the top with last night's performances, right? Dominant, Bills and Eagles. How about that Hertz? Another incredible performance. What is so impressive about him? I mean, I just think his way that he's been improving, just running the offense, controlling the offense, the way he's able to pass the ball downfield, because he was throwing it well and efficient. I think the one interception was a tip ball off the running back's hands. So, man, he barely had any incompletions. He was making the right decisions downfield with the ball. Obviously his legs are a game changer for the offense and you could tell that his growth and his maturation as a quarterback, as QB1, has proven very, very good for Eagles. Yeah, very real deal. Lane Johnson was just on Darius Slay, what a game by him, two-two interceptions, shutting down or taking care of business, siphoning Justin Jefferson. Slay was balling. Yeah, what? Slay was balling. Why is he so underrated? I don't know why he's underrated, man. You know, you gotta give respect, respect is due. And my man had two picks, probably dropped two more, but he's definitely one of the best DB's in the game and he's been doing it at the highest level for 10 years or so. So I'm a big D-Slay fan and he's that guy for show. He proved the world last night. And you could tell watching that he wanted this, that he sort of, I could tell he prepared, he was given the assignment and he really took it to heart all week, right? Yeah, he understood the assignment for show. All right, my friend, let's just rip the bandaid off and get into this spirited game last week between you guys and the Bucks. How are you in the team processing it now that you've had some time? Oh, man, we're good, man. We know that we were in a dog fight. The game was going exactly how we anticipated and we kind of shot ourselves in the foot a few times, had a few calls, go the wrong way for us, but we just gotta get into the mindset where we can't do things to hurt ourselves. When you're in games like that against contender teams, you can't have mistakes and errors that hurt yourself in the long run. So we're fine, we went, we corrected our mistakes. We're gonna learn from our mistakes. We're on to Carolina this week. So we'll be able to see those boys again. We'll be able to see those boys again. I know, so that's why I'm wondering, this isn't going away.  Why is there such bad blood? Man, you know, those division rivalries are very heated and very intense.   So I think just that, you know, you have two teams that have championship aspirations, championship goals and you have big time players on both sides of the ball. So I think that's where, you know, some of that animosity, some of that heat comes into play, you know, it's a tough battle three to three and, you know, we needed the edge to keep going. So I think it's just a respected battle between two good teams. There is respect there. I'm glad to hear that. It doesn't look like there's much. And then I'm looking at this footage and I want to ask you who's the biggest instigator, right? Like who's start, who's, but it's Brady. Brady is. Why does Brady get a pass? Listen, you can talk and chirp all you want. And I think that's what was going on at first, you know? Tom was talking to Marshawn. Marshawn was talking back. I think like Leonard made you push Marshawn. Marshawn pushed him back. And then you see Mike Evans come out of nowhere and just trying to take a cheap shot on Marshawn, man. And that's the second time he's done that, you know? I just don't think that's cool taking a cheap shot at somebody. You know, I think if you want to have a problem with somebody, I think you should man a man, face him up, handle it like that. But, you know, in football, there's going to be a lot of talk, a lot of, you know, chirp, a lot of smack talk back and forth. And that's fine, you know what I mean? But when you start putting hands on people, when you start doing that type of thing, I think it gets disrespectful. So as a man, you got to be able to stand up for yourself. And you will see them again. And it'll be appointment television as always.  Avon Kimera was not active for last week's game. How's your friendship going? What does he mean to the Saints offense going forward?  I mean, he's one of the best players in the league. And when we're able to have him and us just tag teaming and, you know, getting him to ball in space, letting him do what he does best, making plays, I mean, that makes our team better. More playmakers you have on the team, the better off we are in totality. So, hope he gets healthy as soon as possible. Yeah.  You know, we keeping it pushing. We locked in for life. I love it. We just want to, we definitely want him to be healthy, definitely want him to heal up, come back so we can, you know, keep pushing on our championship goals that we have. Yeah, you're doing your thing. You're standing, you're healthy. I feel great today. Want to know why? I feel so great because I don't have four fractures in my back, so I feel pretty good. How's James? Man, he's just so positive and he's tough, man. He says he's good, he's moving around good. And, you know, we just all know that we just have to be at our best. And in the most crucial moments of the game is we can't do things to hurt ourselves. And I contributed to that. And, you know, we just got to do better. Always got to do better in every phase of the game. And we just got to stay healthy. And he's doing well, man. He's doing well. His mind is right. All our minds are right. We just got to take care of each other, have each other's back, keep pushing. Big opportunity against Carolina this week. If we talk about some other storylines outside of your squad, because you're an OG and you can sort of handle what's going on around the league. I want to bring up Tua. He's sort of the toast of the town here after week two. He got to win over your former Ravens, which, you know, it's not easy to do, of course. And Lamar was playing as good as Lamar plays.  I think he shut everyone up for this week. You know what I mean? The league is all about what have you done for me lately and only as good as your most recent game. So I think he's done a really good job, you know, the first two weeks, and especially last week, bringing him back from 21 down to the fourth. I mean, that says a lot about him in the office, how it's supposed to be. How quickly they can put up points. But I think he's just going to continue to grow. He's going to continue to improve. He's always been an accurate passer, a good passer, from all those years I watched him in Alabama. So now that he's healthy, he has weapons around him. He has a few years under us, but where he's confident, knows the offense. And I think he's just going to continue to make those drives and improve it. And he, I mean, do players see him differently than we do? Because there's a lot. He's a bit of a polarizing character. And I like what you're saying. Like, you did it this week, you got to keep doing it. Yeah, I think that's something that is very important. The consistency of play, you know, weekend and week out throughout our league. That's what, you know, kind of separates.  And so I'm looking forward to him being able to do the same thing he did in Baltimore. Going to Baltimore, you know, a big win. It's tough to do that against the Ravens, especially with how the Marl was playing. But you can see the growth. You can see the confidence he has in his playmakers. You can see the confidence he has in himself. And I'm excited to see him to continue to improve and continue to grow and continue to shut the media up because I'm a tour fan. So, you know, haters are going to be everywhere, man. You just got to, you know, continue to stay the course and not tune out the outside noise and focus on what's important. And that's your team, that's your game, that's your assignment. So I'm excited for him. When this happens on Sunday between you and the buck, so like whatever's gone on this year, are people on the team hearing from Sean Payton? Like, can he help himself but get involved? And don't lie to me, I know I'm sure. What was his message? Was he texting everybody? No, I haven't heard from Sean yet. Really? That's surprising. No, I haven't heard from Sean yet, yeah, yeah. But I know he's probably reaching out to some people, but I haven't heard from him personally, so. I imagine he's on that fox that, I don't know if you've seen him yet. Have you seen him suited and booted and all that? Yeah, I've seen him. What do you think? Man, he's doing a good job, man. You know, Sean talks well, he's articulate. He's very smart when it comes to the game, knowing the game and understanding the game and all phases of the offense, defense, special teams, attitude, demeanor, all those things. He's very great with those things. So I think he's doing a really good job on the set. And I'm just picturing him, Mark, just sitting there watching this happen, this fight, and he's watching Bruce Arian send Mike Evans out there. And I'm just him taking off his shoes, loosening that Windsor knot tie, and just like throwing his shoes at the screen and wanting to get there right away. Can't you see that? Everybody did. Yeah, I did. It looked like Bruce sent Mike, didn't it? It did look like a hug. I shouldn't have said that.  Nobody was touching Tom. Nobody was beating Tom up like it's just a little talk, you know what I mean? Okay, let's go move on to this. There have been awesome running back performances so far this season. We want to get Alvin back out there, of course. Derek Henry looked great last night. You're really out there this week up against McCaffrey on the other side, but you're the best at hype speeches that I've ever seen.  We've seen it for Lamar Jackson and all of that. So let's play a little something called To the Podium, where we're gonna give you a platform to hype up something or someone you like, whether it's on your team or on the league. Let's pick a running back. So let's pretend we're post-game or we're hyping up an RB who stood out to you so far this season. Who you got? Let's go. Um, so far this year, man. I'm a big fan of Aaron Jones, you know what I mean? I think Aaron Jones did his thing this past weekend. You know what I mean? He went off, had like a, but 50 or something, you know, maybe 30, 40, 50 in the air. And you can tell when Aaron Jones is going that the Packers are going too. So they go as Aaron Jones goes. So, hey man, Aaron Jones. Keep balling my dog. Keep getting your money. Keep toting that rock. Keep catching the ball out in the backfield. Keep setting the tone for the squad, man. Keep setting the tone for the team. The team goes as you go and they gon' need you, bro. I'm a fan of you. You know how much I respect you. How much I love you and your game and your family. So keep holding it down, my brother. Keep toting that rock properly, man. How it's supposed to, man. You're doing it the right way, man. Big fan here. I love, very well done. I love, I love his family. They're adorable. You know, I'm listening to you say that and you're saying you're the heartbeat of the team. Like Aaron Rodgers has to hate that. There's no world where Aaron Rodgers liked anything that you said. Listen, Aaron Rodgers is the man. Hands down doesn't have to be said. When he has assistance, you heard him at the podium say when they had to run the ball, how they ran the ball, that it takes the stresses off of everybody. So not, I think Aaron Rodgers is 100% in agreement with me when he needs Aaron and Corey Dillon to be towing that rock like that. Takes the stress off of him. It takes defense off the field. And you know, it makes him better. He's a hype man for running backs. If you think that somebody needs a speech, a hype speech after week three, this is the guy who'll do it next week. Mark Ingram, we love you. Enjoy your day off. I don't know why you're standing, but you're making me nervous. So I'm gonna let you go. Why are you standing? I'm not standing, I'm sitting down. Oh, are you? I thought you were standing. No, I'm on like a little bar school. What is this angle? I was like, why are you? I thought you were one of those like walking, standing desks women have in their offices. No, no. I was trying to ask about the angle. I didn't know if it was good, bad, or if it was weird, but I'm just sitting on the bar school right now. It's perfect. Enjoy your day off. We will see you in good luck against Carolina.  All right, thanks. All right, thank you, Mark Ingram, joining us from the Saints. Love having him. What a hype speech. You see how he starts slow? He's like, yeah, he did great. And he's the best running back in the world. And that's why we love him. What is the Mark Ingram tweet, Conrad? What are you talking about? All right, shout out from the Saints to Mark Ingram, 10,000 career yards for him, and still counting. Alex, I see you. You're on social over there for the Saints. We love them, we love him, and we love Chris Collinsworth, who will be joining us soon after this. Time to hit the lights, where we shine a spotlight on a player who had a Hollywood-like outstanding performance in week two on or off the field. And by the way, it doesn't have to be a player. It can be whoever. But we're gonna start with Hayden Hurst, everybody. This has been the biggest silver lining in the midst of a really rough go for the Bengals to start. I love him for what he's done off the field, because he's been so outspoken and transparent about mental health issues, and he's done so many great things at the Hayden Hurst Family Foundation. I've talked to him about it several times over the years. Lisa's had some tough breaks on the field. He was drafted first round by the Ravens, right? I don't know, I guess we don't have any footage of him, but I want to tell this story. Maybe we need to come on camera for this. He was drafted in the same draft class as all pro-Mark Andrews, everybody, right? So then he gets sent to Atlanta in 2020. He puts together a strong season, but the Falcons, of course, drafted this unicorn monster player named Kyle Pitt. So he goes to Cincinnati, this offseason to replace CJ Uzama, and it looks like he's finally found a home, right? He's quickly becoming one of Joe Burrow's go-to guys in big spots. He leads the NFL right now, six catches on third down clutch moments through these first two weeks, including, I mean, he had a couple of huge grabs for the Bengals in that game tying drive in Dallas. So I do think this is a player to keep your eye on. He's going to thrive once the Bengals figure out the O-line situation, and that's what I'm going to talk to Chris Collins worth about, because we need to fix something. And I'm thinking is why didn't you draft or not why didn't you sign in Patreon, Armstead? So that's one of our nominations. If you have any to hook us up with, At Up In Atoms is where you put those. Aiden Hutchinson has to get some love here on the segment, slow start to the season. Second overall pick wrapped up, three sacks and Lions went over the commanders, not just about performance here on the field though. It did mean a lot to a five year old Lions fan named Hudson Gazi. So when Hudson was diagnosed with leukemia a few weeks ago, I mean, I don't know if we have a picture of him or any of this, but Aiden basically got in touch with him through the team. Oh, here it is right here. An amazing, amazing three sack performance, but he's been corresponding with this young fan ever since getting in touch with him. So then there was the post game press conference and Aiden Breville, he was dedicating his break up performance, these three sacks, two Hudson. And it's really fun to see, it's awesome to see in just his second game, Hutchinson, a rookie, should be focused on maybe anything but or you'd be thinking that he would. He's already focused on making an impact there on the field and in his home state. So that if that's not a winner and it hit the lights nominee, I don't know what is. We are unfortunately gonna give it to someone else because it's someone I just think that needs a little love, Christian Kirk, because the reaction online was so brutal. I've never seen anything like it. Christian Kirk, was I one of them? Kind of, sure, I poked in on the fun. Four years, 72 million dollars, are we joking? You could sign this deal at the Jags. It was an intense deal. There were jokes at the Jags expense. There was outrage over Kirk making more per year. Think guys like Mike Evans and Tyler Lockett. Well, Kirk is taking that energy and throwing it in everyone's face because he has become Trevor Lawrence's favorite target already, 78 yards in two touchdowns and that went over the Colts. He currently ranks seventh in the league in receiving. Do I know who that's more than, Brian? It's more than Jamar Chase, more than Jamonte Adams, more than Terry McLaurin and even more than emerging star. And if you looked at fantasy football as a Hall of Fame thing, future Hall of Famer, Amon St. Brown.  Does it mean they get to the playoffs? Which is probably what they were hoping playing on that morning. That's not what this segment is for. It's about hitting the lights. So we hit the lights on those guys and I'm sure we missed a ton. So hit us up at Up and Atom Show for all of that. We were going to look at some, I don't know, I think Conrad has some tweets. I know Chris Collins' worth is waiting. We'll get to him quickly after the break, but Conrad, are you good? Yeah, I mean, I think there's one tweet in particular before we get to Chris that I found to be absolutely amazing from last night. Just absolutely laugh out loud stuff from Darius Slay. I mean, look at this. Slay gave one ball to James Harden last night and the other interception ball says it's gonna go to a son because his son's favorite wide receiver is Justin Jefferson. How about that? How about, why does James Harden get a ball? Well, I mean, James Harden is sidelined, right? James Harden, Darius Slay, they're two guys. I'm sure Darius Slay will be at the Sixers games in the fall. I'm sure we'll go both ways. I'm curious to, I want to interview Darius and say you had two other interceptions that didn't happen, who would you have given those balls to? Because I know James Harden's the best answer for that. Conrad, are we cool to take a break to bring in Chris in? Let's do it, let's bring Chris in. Let's check it out. Of course, should we take a break? Yeah, let's take a break. Okay, we're gonna take a break and Chris Collins, please do not leave us. We will be back. Thank you so much. Ah, look out in the building. Now here's a guy who I can't wait to talk to. We'll be back. Our next guest is one of my favorite people, generous with his time always, three time probable, wide receiver, Yattie Yattie Yattie ranks first on the Cincinnati Bengals all time career receptions list. He has won an Emmy 17 times, pales in comparison to my baby one. And he's currently in his 14th season in the Sunday night football booth on NBC. Chris Collinsworth, welcome 17 Emmys. What? Say, how are you, my friend? How are you? I'm so good. Thank you for joining me. How are you? I'm a little worried though that since you haven't been to Cincinnati this year, my boys are falling apart just a bit. And you are sort of the princess of the Queen city. So can we get a return visit maybe to get the spark going? Okay. Cause really you ignited the flame last year. You know, you really did. I really did. Maybe it needs to be like a you and me situation where we both go and take care of business. And let's start there in Cincinnati, not only home to the print of the princess of Queen city, but your home, of course, in the home of PFF, which we love. And they've got all those stats and they're not kind to one Joe Burrow who has been sacked a million times already this season. And by a million, I mean 13. He's on pace for an outrageous 111 sacks this year. How do they fix it? I don't know, but they, you know, they've been behind in both games. And let's start with they played two really good defense, right? They played defense first Steelers, got behind in that game, had to drop back and throw it and Joe was getting killed. They got behind against the Dallas Cowboys and had to drop back, had to throw it.  So they clearly have, you know, some issues up front. They did, it's a carryover from last year.  They got the rookie Bolson over there, Ted Karris. So everybody thought it was going to be better. But to some extent too, I think that Joe Burrow has to take a little bit of it and just go, I'm not going to make my guys look bad anymore. You know, I'm going to get this ball out of here. Tom Brady, you know, is under 25 sacks every year for a reason because Tom Brady knows how to get rid of the football. So at this level of football and with the significance of what Joe Burrow is, you know, he's just, he's the franchise. He's everything to the Cincinnati Bengals. A, he has to stay healthy. So he's got to take fewer hits. And I think he has to take a little bit of responsibility to get Ted Sucker out of there every once in a while. I literally have a question. Is there any responsibility of this on Burrow?  My only other question was- That's sort of that mind-melt thing that we got going on. That's the Cincinnati thing. Chris, but also, I mean, are they going to regret not just getting to Ron Armstead? If you look at, you know, obviously had a high price tag, but maybe I hope the O-line gels and works out. I really do. Yeah, I don't, you know, they had Jonah Williams was a high draft pick. So I think they felt like that they, they had it covered this year and it just hasn't worked out that way so far. But one thing we know about the NFL, whether you're broadcasting or playing, it's a long year, right? And the things that we thought about in the beginning of last year and what we thought at the end of last year were two entirely different things.  And you look at even at the playoffs, you know, does it even matter if you're the number one seed and get the buy or not? Because the two first round, you know, the two top seeds last year got knocked out at home in the opening weekend. We had a four seed play in a four seed and probably should have been a four seed play in a six seed in San Francisco, but for the dropped interception right at the end of that game and the championship game. Right. So it's a long road. I think the Bengals offense line will get better. I just hope that Joe survives the year. So. Agree that the backup situation bleak in Cincinnati, but I'll get out there. I'll fix, I'll just try, I'll fix it. There's your analysis.  Just like you did last time. It was all you came to town one time, one time. Jack Collinsworth showed you a couple of fancy places to go to, you know, the chili parlor and the graders ice cream. And all of a sudden you tip the tier and that was it. We were on roll. That's the solution. That's the boats missing. You're so right here. I want to ask you about Trey Lance because he's done for the years in big NFL storylines with the great Chris Collinsworth. Jimmy G comes in. He guides them to win over the Seahawks. I checked PFF as I always do. And I saw that he earned a barely above average overall PFF grade for his performance. Are the Niners actually better with Jimmy G under center?  Because they all just thought he was going to be traded. So they want to show him the whole playbook. And so he had to sort of work out on his own on the side. I think somewhere in the back of all of our minds, we were wondering, you know, what is best for the 49ers? And we just didn't get to see enough of Trey Lance to know if he was the right answer. But we know that Garoppolo is good enough at least to take them to the championship game and the Super Bowl. Despite the fact they got beaten and it wasn't for one missed pass on a long ball in that one. They might have won the Super Bowl as well. So I think that immediately there'll be an air of confidence about this 49ers team. But remember, he's still coming off that shoulder injury. He didn't get a whole lot of training camp either. So I think there'll be a bit of a learning curve here that's a young offensive line. They're still going to get better as they go along here as well. But it was, there was a little, I don't know, it just didn't feel quite right yet with the San Francisco 49ers, with Trey Lance and all of a sudden Garoppolo came in there. And it just seems like they've just sort of fallen back into old habits and now they'll rely on the run game defense. And I think they're gonna be right in the mix. Yeah. And then this week you've got Denver, of course a mess with penalties and decisions and all of that. How do you use PFF to get you set for that game? No, we use it all. I mean, we use the grades. We use the snap counts. We use the tendencies. We have my guys from PFF will come in and they'll study the game from the week before and they'll give me a little breakdown, which is what we did all day yesterday. Denver is an interesting team. I just got finished watching the defensive tape and they come up there with that five man line and really try to get some pressure with Randy Gregory on the outside who came up with the big play and Chubb and all the different guys that they have out there. So it's a, it's an interesting team. I don't know how badly hurt Patrick Sartan is and you know what that's gonna mean for this week's game, but they have to get it going on offense. I mean, it was startling to watch the number of mistakes that they made. And it's easy to put everything on coaching quarterback and just kind of go, oh, Nathaniel Hackett, he doesn't know what he's doing and Russell Wilson is a bad deal. Russell Wilson played fine. He was putting the ball where he needed to put it. Nathaniel Hackett's play calls were fine. They were dropping passes. They were jumping off sides. They were holding. Every time they started to get something going, they went in reverse and then they got down to the red zone and for the second straight game, they haven't done anything down there. So they've had six trips to the red zone. They haven't scored a touchdown yet. So that's, that's the way you get beaten this week. So this week they spend more time in the red zone. I'll spend a little time at Topgolf in Denver getting ready for the game and we'll be good. And of course, hanging out on PFF and getting set for all of that. I got to ask you while we have you and I want to get to the PFF app and then have a little fun with you at the end of, we're at the end of our show now, but I got to ask you, indulge me and millions of NFL fans. What happened to the slide? Hi, yeah, yeah. Okay, so here's the basics of what happened, all right? So when Al Michaels was my partner, Al Michaels did an opening monologue, right? He came on by himself and that's, that's what Al has done for the last 20 years. So I'm not changing that. You just, you just do that, right? You just do your opening monologue. And then I'll, you know, so they tell me to sit, look at this thing. So they tell me to sit on the desk. They tell me to sit on the desk and they put a piece of tape, believe it or not, okay, between my legs and they put it on the desk and they say, all right, straddle that piece of tape right there, okay? So I straddle that piece of tape and I sit in there just like I'm going to be talking now.  What are you doing? Get out of the way.  What do you mean, get out of the way? So I'm like, okay. So he goes, just lean out of the picture, your shoulder's in the picture. So I go, okay. So I just lean like that and get out of the picture. And so then Al comes on and he does and says, you know, welcome to, you know, we're Lambeau Field and Aaron Rodgers and Tom Brady, da, da, da, da. Let's welcome in my partner, Chris Cosworth. So then I go, I go, so then I just slide in so that I still have my legs between the piece of tape and so that's how the whole thing got started and somebody made like a meme out of it or did something. I don't know. And then it started to become a thing, but my Trico doesn't do the opening monologue. So what am I gonna do? It's like, I'm sitting there.  I would like, so what do you do? I don't, do you do it just for a fact? Do you do it or I'll have to do it? I don't know. I don't know what I'm gonna do. I mean, maybe I'll leave that way. As soon as I get finished, maybe I just go that way. Or maybe you need another entrance. I mean, we'll take Sausage up in Adam's show. Maybe you could do like what Lady Gaga did at the Super Bowl, she came from the top.  I like that a lot. You're good on social media. Everybody loves you on social media. Come up with an answer. I need an answer for this because I don't, I get a lot of like stuff. People send me a lot of stuff. They want me to do it. You're acting like- I don't know how to make it make sense anymore.  Like the world is up in arms. We need our Collins-Roslides. Like, come on, you knew that. I guess so. So I'll just- We only have- Just begin to fade to black here as you go off the air here. That's how we'll go off the air. But not before you tell me about the new app that we need to know about and everything you've got going on. PFF app downloaded over 20,000 people already have downloaded this thing. All the fantasy football, all the gambling, all the news you could ever want. You don't need to go anywhere else. Just go to pff.com and check it out. I think you'll love it. We certainly will. Thank you so much, Chris Collins-Roth, for joining. Okay, let's do it. Let's totally fade. Let's do it. Let's practice. Oh, bye, Chris. That's perfect. Okay. You're the best. Thank you so much for joining us. As we wrap things up, we can say bye to Chris there. He's, is he the best? He is the best. I had so much more I wanted to ask him, of course, about Jaylen Hertz and his performance about Aaron Rodgers. You know, he said, yeah, they need to run the ball more. And I wanted to ask him whether or not Aaron Rodgers has that in him to not just take off and throw the ball over the field if he feels like it. Okay, that was our show. We'll see you guys tomorrow, incredible guests. Big thanks to Lane Johnson, Mark Ingram, and of course the great Chris Collins-Roth. Yeah, it doesn't really work. Maybe we could do like a, I think the Lady Gaga thing's good.
