And I think we're just going to call this one pre game the OTP pre game.
Mike, I like that, well.
And here's why. First of all, this is Amy wellsure TVs. Amy Wells is here, and that's Ramon Foster. Hey, everybody, Titans Radio one oh four five zone, former NFL player VFL. You got a lot of uh talking to Amy earlier. I gotta consolidate my roles. Okay, we're talking about right now. But that's not bad. It's not a well known and much beloved figure in our community. I appreciate. Yes.
So anyway, pregame pre game, Yes, I love.
So you've probably noticed surprise that the OTP that comes out Monday night at eight Central is with this lady me and the head coach, Brian Callahan. Sure is, how about that? And so we're doing another one that comes out Thursday nights at eight o'clock and we're going to have a special guest every week. So Ramona, you don't have to do this every week, but we are going to ask you to rotate through a minute. Yeah, okay, okay, So, and I bet Coach Mac will end up in that seat and others.
Just people we can stop on the street. People, Yeah, come here a minute, we have some thoughts.
The OTP pregame is the Thursday night version. We're gonna play Chicago on Sunday. Are you excited to go to Chicago?
I am actually walking through downtown Chicago lash in a preseason game was my first time ever in life, and all I've ever heard is how awesome Chicago was, and it is. But this time is a little bit different. We got on It counts. It counts this time, So yes, I'm looking forward to going back, especially when we mentioned weather. Also supposedly it's best of the best, sixty.
Ish, maybe close to seventy ish by the time the game is over.
You're gonna need a jacket, Ramond, We're not worthy. You're gonna need a jacket. That sideline the report is.
Important, you know, So I bought more polos this year because I knew I would. You're gonna need one in Miami. You're gonna need a polo for the two games here in September, and I'm thinking, well, I'm gonna need one for Chicago.
To wash them. You know, Well, do you.
Want to wear the same thing over again? Do you wear a Wait, Mike, it's not no, but I try not to wear the same unless we get on a wind streak. If it's a streak, you're gonna see the same thing. And if there is a if there's a beard at that time, the beard will stay. And yeah, I mean wind streaks are different when we were ten and zero. Yeah, if you look back at the pictures, yeah, it was basically the same thing every week.
But you have in your brain seventeen individual outfits.
No, I don't have outfits. Have shirts or sweaters or sweat pants and shoes. Well, yeah, but the pants may be the same. You can't. I mean, but I like to wear different things. I'm with you, and I'll be honest.
I was an egle beaver last year, so I bought a whole wardrobe last year.
Like Mike, I'm so serious, But we did you know, we took some of the guests work out of it because we bought the Titans radio gear, which you have.
On I'm proud. Yes, it's quite nice.
Well, but it takes some of the because it sort of identifies us. It's like we're in town with a convention or something. Oh look there are those guys. Yes. Well no, but I mean but it is nice. I mean we did it intentionally because then you know sort of who's with the band, and that makes it easier for the people around to know that you're official. And it takes the guesswork out of dressing. That's true.
I'll give you that. And my best dress up is when I don't think about it. Mike, absolutely, so I'm with you on that. Amy's looking like she's ready to just criticize you, Mike, and I got a feeling she.
Wants you got a budget, but she's down with all the Titans radio stuff because she does like it.
I do like all we got.
And we got her Titans radio stuff even last year when she had bagg.
Done us, but she still got the merchant. I have a kid, real fast, but real fast. I did get the merchandise. No, it is very helpful. When maneuvering through stadiums, especially on game there when you don't look like an athlete, people are confused about why you're standing in athlete spaces.
Well, because we we go I mean, they see the pass when we have a pass that allows us to go different places. But it is easier when they can equate you with doing a certain job and the pass, especially with a lot of the security things. Now, it's helpful, I mean in all.
Ways easier to move through the spaces that you need to be and when people understand what you're doing and your what your function is quickly.
Even though I just get stairs because I still look like a football player and they're like, why you up.
Here with us? And downstairs, Yeah, you're standing there with us, and they're like, oh, look at that nice guy with that player with the math cluss. Isn't it nice with people? That's a little glimpse into the glimpse. So what we're gonna do is, I have five topics for ramone foster, and we'll certainly be able to comment on the five topics. Uh might even have a bonus, might even have a bone. And then we're going to do key ingredients of the game delivered by Little Caesars Pizza Pizza. Very exciting, and I have to do it in sixty seconds or less. You know, there's a timer.
There is one hundred percent of timer. Okay, you must do it within the identified time. We'll say sixty seconds today. As the season goes.
On, we may wait.
Jimmy, it a little bit just for my own enjoyment, all right, but yeah, sixty seconds.
Is your Let's get to otp pregame. Ramone Foster's here. We can't waste any more of his time. He's a very busy man. Ramone Foster, Titans offensive lineman. You will be watching with most interest in this game.
Well, it's a new season, so I gotta watch a new guy, and that's j. C.
Laithom.
And of course his good or back or just okay game isn't you know, an outlook on what the season's gonna be, what his career is going to be either. But when you have a top ten pick at left tackle right from the University of Alabama, it gets a little heightened when you look at him going onto the road and having his first start, and well, everything that we saw translate over into the regular season because we go through pregame right now, right this is the preseason's way different than the regular season. So I want to see how he adjusts what he can handle. The things that I've liked about him so far has been one main state for me. Even in moments where he gets beat and he gets pushed, he doesn't get pushed over and pushed backwards. I love that about his game. We've talked about him squatting one thousand pounds and how much he lift and how big his legs and calf muscles are. Well, that's important because the one thing that veteran defensive lineman love to do is to run through you any chance they get. And if you show any signs of weakness on being able to anchor down, then you find yourself in the mixer. As far as trying to figure out how can I readjust as a player as an offensive lineman, the defensive lineman knows this. If I do that one or two more times, he's gonna bite on it and I'm gonna beat him around the edge. So that's one thing I like about his game just to start, but it has to start with jac lathm Man. Lloyd Cushionberry is in that conversation all in all, but we're talking about Will Levis and his career and the opportunity that he's gonna have to want as a quarterback too, and it starts with his backside or his blind side protection. So a lot is on Ja C. Laaten's plate this weekend. I'm sure it won't just be me, but he is my focused point of the offensive line. Although I will say this to it, and I'm a champion this as many time as I possibly can. Peter Skeronski for pro bo. I'm I'm starting it now, Okay, in the pre game, Peter Skeroonsky for the whole probo. But I think one of the most pivotal points of this will be J. C. Laton's performance.
Are they gonna put montest sweat just up on him and just let him deal with the best defensive lineman they have him?
And DeMarcus Walker too, who's played here in Nashville, and you know how it goes. There's always a hey, watch me get a little get back. So those are the two guys I expect to be on him. Darrell Taylor is another one of those guys who's a rush specialist. But starting with Montest, what hey, young fellow, welcome to the NFL. You know, we had all this hoop of this last summer about the young ladies in the WNBA and their introduction. Well, this happens in every sport, and specifically at that position. We got a guy in Montest Sweat that was a sack leader for the Washington Commanders and the Chicago Bears. So his ability to get after the quarterback and just be a nightmare for offensive line, and then I've already been in the league. I'll be honest. I loved seeing young defensive linemen come up. They tipped so much. I see their hands, I see their feed. I'm watching it. I'm talking to the older guy, what do I do on this play? Like these are the types of things that happened. But because the inexperience of JC Latham, if I'm a veteran like Montest Sweat that's looking to show why I wanted out of the last place I was, then yes, put me on the rookie and I want to see how much fun I can have with them. It's just and it's not personal. It's just welcome to the NFL, and we've all either gotten it in practice, or in the games where they find a new guy, it's you transferred to a new school in the new city, Amy, And.
Guess what we got to see. If you really, if your reputation is.
Solid, how do you prepare a rookie for that experience.
It's leaning on a guy like Lloyd Cushionberry that matters. It's also knows that being being coached and taught by coach Bill Callahan plays a lot into it.
That's why it's funny.
In practice, we see those guys every day, right, and they do the exact same thing every single day with how they start up practice.
They're going to hit the sled.
They hit each other like we can go through and tell everything they do in practice, right. And that's what he as a young player has to understand is that's what's going to save me. If I get beat on the play, go back to my basics. If I get you know, out of position, the technique that I've been taught day in and day out in training cap as long as it is, and in those joint practices, I must go back to those moments right there. You have to trust the teaching because if we believe that Coach Bill Callahan is one of the best in the league. And he is because he's so technically sound. My technique is gonna save me. And the other part too, where young guys have to learn to grow. I think quarterbacks come into the league with this. But your film study, I'm watching what he did in Washington, I'm watching what he did in the Chicago last year. I'm watching his backup. I'm going to watch the Seattle Seahawks, the real Taylor tape. Also, like these are the things that he has to learn how to do. And that's where a Lord Cushion Berry, from his standpoint wild tell him, young fellow, this is how we watch film. This is what you're looking for. And it's I say, it's a simple breakdown because I've done it for so long. But what is he doing the first quarter? How does he come out in the second quarter? If they are down? Does he quit? If they are up? Does he quit? If he gets a sack? Is does he shut it down? Like I look at the personality trace of guys because in the NFL, as it boils down to who can and who cannot.
Everybody usually has the goods.
It honestly is a matter of what motivates them like an Aaron Donald type.
He was trying to.
Prove the world he was the best at it right. So for dudes that are trying to figure it out, I look at how they act and good and bad moments, and that's one of those things I feel like will be crucial for a young rookie starter.

Visit snickers dot com slash Rookie mistakes for details. All Right, defensive player to watch for Ramon Foster on the OTP pregame. Is it okay if I give two? I'm that type of guys.
Let's go get it.
Hit as many as I want one.
I'm not going to say the yasy everybody will say to Vandre Sweat, I'm not even gonna do that.
Okay.
It's Jeffrey Simmons. We hadn't seen much of him in the preseason. We've seen him in practice going up against an old teammates radically out the course of the game, and Nate Davis like seeing how he reacts to that and how he says the tone. As much as we talk about the nooness of this defense, it starts with jeff It just does. If he comes out and I don't. If he's in the backfield, play one, everybody else has to follow and the next guy would have to be Kenneth Murray. It's just that simple for me, and watching how Denard Wilson delegates his plays and what he's asking him to do. I think, especially in Week one, most teams offensively are very simple. They're very simple. It won't be much that they want to do. You might get a flee flicker maybe, but it's going to be run the ball. They got a rookie quarterback, So I seeing if big Jeff cans set the tone up front and Kenneth Murray be on the back end of that. By far as one of the most exciting tanders. I want to watch out the duration of this season.
So why did you pick Jeffrey Simmons over Tovandre Sweat just because he everything runs through him?
Yeah, that's beautiful.
You such the homie, okay about you? With that being said, it's because I think if jeff goes then Toandre knows how far he can go with it. Also, if to Andre is the tone, which would it will be times throughout the course of the season. As he continues to mature, he should become the tone.
Set or two.
But if Jeffrey Simmons is showing you that, look, I don't go out but every five plays and this is how we attack, and we're on the same page. It starts with Jeff. It's just like surrounding a world class picture with defenders around them. That's what you want, Like you can have a cannon of an arm throwing heat, right, but if your defenders are bad, then what use am I? And that's why I feel like it starts with Big Jeff, Like it's not disrespectfully saying this, but he's the sun in that defense.
To me, the OTP pregame question topic three. Will the two teams choose to end the new kickoff rule kick the ball to one another or will they just go ahead and kick a touch back all day long and not fiddle with it now that it's the regular season.
I think they kick it to one another, really, I do, because when you have the defenders that close also, and they've been working and nobody's shown a thing as it pertains to how they're going to break down the return team or how they're going to attack the return team too. And that's why I say, if you can set a team back to get a I call it a tackle for loss now because essentially an offensive play put them at about the eighteen with true starters and not guys at are camp bodies. Respectfully, I think I think you have a better product, Mike, but it does come with a risk because the bad A young rookie who closes too far inside could mean you're running down the sideline.
Oh, and I think we're going to have a kickoff return for a touchdown in the NFL or two or three in Week one. Absolutely I agree with it. But I also think there are going to be some teams who go, you know, we've dealt with this the whole preseason, and you know, we'll just give you the ball on the thirty have a nice day. I also think it's determined by score, Like if you're up twenty one to seven in the third quarter or in the fourth quarter, you may just say, you know what, I'm not sure how we'll cover this kick, so I'm just gonna go ahead and kick it through the end zone. There's gonna be a real strategy behind that too. It's complicated it which is fun. It is I love it. I love it.
I absolutely love I know some people just like, this is no, this is not dumb. This is good to me, because to your point, that is one of the most exciting plays and all the football that's watching a kick return, go back or even a punt reto. You think about it like it's that many bodies coming at you and you just so happen to get cleaned or get grabbed and still stay up. Special team coaches are on notice on how you craft plays. I think now it's a sensible it is. It's the first playoff offense, and it actually is real.
So the Titans have not had an opening kickoff return for a touchdown. Now in three hundred and seventy five games Titans receive the opening kickoff. We'll see if that streak holds and see if they can break it. That's back to two thousand and one. Wow, Derek Mason in Cincinnati was the last one to do it. The other thing to watch in Chicago on Sunday, it's supposed to be windy, which is not a surprise. So if you're trying to kick off to the other team and hit the landing zone, you've got to make sure when you're kicking, like if you're kicking into the wind, you've got to make sure that you get it into the landing zone because if you don't, if say someone comes up and catches the ball at the twenty one yard line, it's immediately blown dead and the team gets the ball at the forty at forty So they're all these little especially now that it really counts now that real game situations matter, Now that wind conditions can be a big thing. Hanging that kickoff up in the air to the ten, maybe you need to try to kick it closer to the goal line, which is why you say, maybe we'll just try to kick a touchback.
Or And our resident meteorologist, Rett Bryan already gave me the wind report. It's supposed to be gust of about twelve to twenty two miles per hour. So to your point about just trying to drop me fight normal Chicago, this is normal for us. But he said you might want to bring a long sleeve shirt or something like that. To your point earlier about the clothes, but yeah, that if you dropping in front of the twenty, play is done.
It's dead. It's done. And getting the ball at the forty is a big deal.
I'm telling any anything would just be touchback city if you were playing against the Amy Wells.
Well and I think I think there is going to be I think you're one hundred percent dead on. I think there's going to be a mindset of we're not fiddling with this.
Nope. It was cute, but like it's week one.
I still say by the time we get to some point in October, I think that's what everybody's gonna do.
Can we say this to and they haven't been barking loud at all. I'm anti defense at times. Okay, that's just the way ours raised.
Okay. Uh.
And they always find something to complain about. They've gotten holsed in this too. An extra five yards on the original kickoff starting point. If it's a touchback, that's five yards that you've given up, essentially, and if it doesn't god in the landing zone the forty like coaches have their their systems in place that if we get the ball here, that's three points. The forty yard line is we're in kicking field goal territory.
Well, when you talk analytics about field position, there were a lot of people who were not happy when they moved the touch back from the twenty to the twenty five, because your percentage chance of trying to score from the twenty to the twenty five goes up. From the twenty five to the thirty, it goes up. But if it eventually becomes the thirty five, which is what people feel like will be done eventually in order to motivate teams to kick off into the landing zone, the thirty five and then to the forty. Like what we're talking about, the percentage of being able to score points on that possession goes way up.
Yeah, And again defensive coaches have to plan for that and special team coaches too. You gotta have guys that are probably more cerebral now that you got to have a kicker that understands his jobs and his task, Like there's a lot that goes into, honestly, the losing of games. Those are like very flagrant penalties right there, essentially, sure, And I haven't heard many defensive players even mention it to you know, Like I said, going from the twenty to the twenty five, that helps one side of the ball, and that's the offense.
Yeah, and now going to the thirty it helps, And if it were to go to the forty, I mean it's crushing.
And when we speaking about we hear a coach Max speak about like a three and now ain't a bad series sometimes because if you got a heck of a punter and I think the Titans do, sure, Ryan Stonehouse and he's back like you have a field flipper now, so you can essentially set the opposing offense up, backed up like.
This gets deeper. Have you seen the Bears punter the Australian that they have. He was featured quite a bit in Hard Knocks. This guy's something else too. But first NFL game nerves could be a little different, could be interesting, all right. Question number four the OTP pre game Ramon Foster is our guest bigger impact on Sunday's final result. Caleb Williams will Levis biggest impact in terms of who wins or loses. It has to be Levis just because he's got Caleb Williams got a lot of veterans over there. O line has been together for the most part, and their head coach has been in place too.
When you look at will Levis having to contribute, I think going on the role is a factor. I think having this many new parts, watching which receivers will be activated on game day that plays a part in it to me more than watching Caleb Williams on he's going to be number one overall player, having a playbook, it's been his since day one. I think he's got more surrounding parts around him to keep him successful and not have to do as much. I think will Levis actually has to go get it this weekend.
All right, I'm gonna give you a shout.
That was a really good question.
I'm going to repeat it. Bigger impact on Sunday's final result. Caleb Williams or Will Levis.
Well, you have to think that just because Caleb Williams is a rookie quarterback and you alluded to this a little bit, because he's a rookie, the Bears are going to put a lot of safeties in place around him, knowing that this is his first game. He's gonna do some rookie stuff. So you have to account for that, just the nerves, the newness, the whatever it is. You have to account for that. So you would think that he will be a little insulated to where other parts of the team will keep him from having a big impact one way or the other. So if he plays great, fantastic, if he plays terrible, we're trying to help him out and keep our guy together here, Whereas will Levis, because this is his offense and because he has more experience, there's more leaning on him. So you would think that if he has a great game, he's going to have a great game, and if he has a bad game, it might have more impact on other aspects of the team, not to say that this isn't a team sport, but more things would go through him. So I'm gonna say that Will Levis will have a bigger impact in that mold.
So you agree with Ramone.
I think so, but I had to I kind of had to back indo to it.
Well, you're leaning forward, you're leaning in.
I'm leaning into my thinking back into it.
I believe you more because you're leading into it. I think Ramon was just saying, well, it really.
Just give going like and I started smiling because geez, you ready to go?
Where your shoulder pass it?

The most disruptive idea in ticketing a ticket that works expect the expected geek See geek Question five the OTP pregame who rushes for more yards? The Tennessee Titans or the Chicago Bears On Sunday, I go to Titans.
They have one bell cow over there. The Titans have to And here's the other part of it too, the settling of this game from what we saw in preseason and how Oga and Bertha have been just a talking point here. You have to run the ball, absolutely have to run the ball and establish it. One way too, did a crowd on the road is to beat up the opposing defensive line. And that's where to me watching Tase Spears and Tony Pollet run this weekend is I think they will have the most yards, Mike.
Because of those factors. You know what scares me about Chicago towards why they could win this total, the rushing total, Bayless Jones, Because Bayless Jones. They're going to have something in this game for Dayless Jones if he's active, which I think he will be, and that four three three speed, I mean he could pop along when it could be a potential game changer in week one because nobody really has any idea how they're going to use him now that they have moved him to running back full time.
Great for him. I mean, he's extended his career right now. I mean he's pulling the Kadero Pattison.
It is. I just like the tandem. Again.
If I agree with it out with eighty six yards and Tony Pollitt makes it out what ninety eight, that'd be great, That'd be an awesome day. And again it's the first one I think. Honestly, I'd love to see will Levis go through the air. But if the first game means you get a roll win and you dominate on the ground, the receivers can take a back seat this weekend.
Hey, listen, Callahan has made it clear they're going to run the football, and they're gonna run out of three wides, and I mean they're gonna do it different ways. They're going to be more apt to throw one first down then the Titans have probably been in the past. But listen, if you're ahead in the second half and you've got Caleb Williams trying to come from behind in his first game, and it's real windy and you're on the road, yeah, you may just try to pound it and get out of there. And that's winning football.
It is the best part about this too, is you I lit up when you say something second ago. The multiple sets that they can run the ball out of, that to me is where it's very diverse. Where we saw it also just a little bit in New Orleans in a preseason game where they motion Taj Spears back into the back oh yeah, and in a nickel set, and I was just like, oh my gosh, this this reminded me of the days well I played words. I sound so old saying that right there, but as just five years ago, we were running the ball well, We'd have our five wide essentially with a running back on the field and motion him into the backfield and at that point, the defense had to adjust because if they go Diamond Nickel and I trust my offensive line, oh, we're about to beat them up because you bought in a rust specialist and not a run stopper. So at that point, no huddle, Let's keep going. And that's what I'm hoping. We see you on Sunday and throughout the rest of the season. I got to that's.
Too much for me.
Did you wear helmets when you played? Was a protocol?
No glove ye blocking forearms? It's time? Can I move along now? Can I join the conversation? Thank you? It's time now for a new feature on the OTP pre Game, brought to you by our friends at Little Caesar's, well known for pizza delivery and for saying pizza.

All timer, okay, so read the read the open.
It's time for the key ingredients of the game. Delivered by Little Caesars.
Pizza Pizza.
Thank you all right, Mike, The timer starts.
Now, Okay. The Chicago Bears will start number one overall. Pick Caleb Williams at quarterback on see against the Titans. Key number one for the Titans is for the secondary to play great. Sunday's defensive performance will come down to coverage. Key number two is about the Titans quarterback Will Levis's decision making. If at the end of the day, Will Levis has managed the Titans offense effectively, Titans likely start one to zero. Key number three prepare for the unexpected. There will be surprises, bad bounces, bad calls. This is a Week one tradition. How you hold up in these moments often determines whether or not you win or lose. In Chicago time.
Wow, we're gonna have to make these harder. Those are the key ingredients to the game, delivered by Little.

Uh say it now now that they've seen you with the helmets, gonna be you and Levis see don't play.
The cologne, by the way, actually smells it smells good, it's not bad, and it's going with them I make, I make some mean devil eggs with This is actually what I have at home.
All right, So here's the bonus player you're most interested to see you on Sunday.
Most interested Lagarious.
Neat Wow, Yes, yes, good one.
Awesome signing. I think we look at the numbers now, it is a great signing. Okay, you got a number one corner back here. You got a guy that can shut down one side of the field, and you're gonna need that.
On this Sunday. Oh yeah. D J.
Moore is no corner kid. Okay, he actually gets it done. He's up and down the field, he's side to side. And I heard a couple of couples, of course, a couple of interviews and podcasts that Lagarious is done. He takes pride and being number one, he takes pride.
I think he said, what the so you think he will travel? Well?
He said that on the podcast I listened to recently, said that he went to co spec Nola Lash in Kansas City.
Said I want to travel.
Don't let me don't look.
What that means is he's going to go with For those who don't know, he's going to trail a certain receiver wherever he lines.
Up, wide receiver one usually and we'll see if Dinard Wilson allows that. But his confidence of being able to be a shut down guy, and even if that's three catches for fifty yards, that's a really good day against the team's number one wide receiver. I'm very interested to see him live and an action in Chicago.
That's a good one, and yours, Calvin Ridley, that's a good I'm just very excited to see him do what he does best in a Titans jersey. I'm he is filling such a huge need for this Titans team, for this organization really, with all things set up the way that they are right now, with the play calling, with the other people on the offense, all of the pieces are in place for us to finally have a just dynamic receiving corps and I am so excited and I think that Calvin Ridley's going to be a really big part of that. So I'm excited to watch him hopefully start what is going to be a phenomenal season for Titans receivers.
I said it on Titans tonight, Harold Landry, that's I think Harold Landry's going to have a big year. I think he's going to get off to a start in Chicago. I think they've handled him well. I think he's practiced well. I think he's ready to go. He was hot as a firecracker last year down the stretch. Couldn't block him in Miami on Monday Night. And I think he's gonna he's gonna benefit so much in this defense because there's so many other guys you got to fiddle with, and so what are you gonna do with him?
And gotta let him run?
I mean, I heard you say that last night. You're right, He's almost just like the long lost brother, like I've been here the whole time. Yeah, And I think you're one hundred percent correct on that, Mic. He's he's done it before. Nine and a half last year.
Nine and a half in the last thirteen games, five and a half in the last six games.
Yeah, and they got a left tackle over there in Chicago.
That is, uh, the same way I said.
You know, you got to look at montes Wet and jac Latham the same energy should be here in Nashville towards the offensive lineman. So I'm with you, Harold didn't get enough conversation this offseason.
But maybe that's good. I mean he doesn't.
Want it, really, no, he definitely doesn't want it. I think it's great. I like him being kind of like the forgotten yeah in over there, and then that's what I'm hoping for.
You, Well, that's going to do it for this edition of the OTP pre Game.
You get your You see that?
Man? You sure? Yeah?
Did you know that's made with cage free eggs? I didn't know that says that right here on the front.
I did know that for Ramone Foster, I Mike Keith namy Wells wanting a spokesperson's job with Helmets, Well, no, I just didn't know. We thank you for joining us for the o t P.
