What is the tone that you are setting? What is the Arden key vibe? Very hyper. I got a lot of energy. You'll hear me before you see I just I just love to have fun really a lot of have fun. I like to smile I just like especially when we have practice and stuff like that if I can come in and just Make it make you feel better. Just one percent. Yeah, that's me. We talked about your vibe Mike Vrable has his very own special vibe. How do you guys mesh together with your two styles? I think Mike is just misunderstood If you understand Mike and understand that he only say things to Get you to be the best you then it's all funny Now you're in your sixth season as an NFL player How are you different now than you were in season one more locked in on details a smile detail Because the small details are equal up to the big thing when you had this organization for so long You really don't know anything else but that organization then once I want so I went to another organization Then it showed me a different way of doing things a more successful way of doing things and I kind of picked up on the Successful tip now you're from a bigger family in Atlanta a bunch of twins in your family. You're a twin There's a bunch of twins. How does something like that happen? Where does this twin thing come from? It started with us? Um, it started with me and my twin sister. I got twin sister and then she ended up having twin boys And it was crazy when we first found out it was crazy We didn't we we always knew that a twin skipper generation So what so if it was us then maybe our kids kids would have had the twin But my twin ended up having a twin now. I kind of got jealous because I wanted to Like and I didn't have it so that's crazy, but basketball players in your family, right? I'm not any football player How'd you end up playing football? I think of my dad my dad introduced me to football first So it was football when I was eight years old and then I didn't even play Organized basketball until I was like 12 13 So I was able to build the love of the game for football and then basketball was just something to keep me out of trouble How good does it feel to be a closer to that family closer to Atlanta back in that region? I would assume there's going to be a lot of keys at Titans games feels good for them to be Literally three hours away. They can make that job any day. We are so excited to have you here. I'm so excited to be here Arden Key has tallied four sacks one forced fumble and eight solo tackles in his first season as a Titan at least so far Up next on Titans all-access Dave McGinnis is here to talk Tyreek Hill stick around Hey Titans fans, it's Matt Moore former Tennessee Titan Javon curse here.

This is a taste of Tennessee. This is absolutely delicious exclusively on LG channels and LG OLED TVs Titans all-access continues from the bet MGM studio. I'm joined by my Titans radio broadcast partner coach Dave McGinnis As we prepare for Monday night football against the Dolphins Mike McDaniel has a special offense He said when he went in there last year, he felt like he could get to a tongue of Iowa straight He has how's he done it? Well, he's done it. First of all that, you know two is a little bit More mature in this league right now. He's healthy But what we're looking at with this offense first of all, it's a dynamic speed offense You look you look at it very very quick it doesn't take you long with the cowboy on the film to see how much speed they have and It's really a nuanced inflow RPO type of a system But they've also got some really good checks if they catch you in man to man. They're going up top Mike But look, he's learned how to operate that the offense much as you saw him do when he was at Alabama I mean they they catered some of this offensive Tack to him and so it's working pretty good for him. He's got Tyreek Hill and more than that. Yeah, but Yes, go ahead. All right, we're going to go beneath the surface now powered by Microsoft All right, I'm going to show you Tyreek Hill for this play here's number 10 the cheetah All right, now let's watch it before you start it Mike too high safety look back here So Tula is looking at this right now He's got a three by one formation set up right here right now But he's looking at this we're going to see once this starts where the safety is going to start creeping down Now it becomes a post-safety defense and post-safety means you're in man to man Watch the check that he goes to and watch where it goes. This is going to be man to man now All right, man to man. You see him look at him stutter and go No way. Goodbye. Good night. He outruns not only the man on top of him in man to man He outruns the safety angle also This is the fastest player in the national football league anytime you give him post-safety if the down and distance calls for it He's going to go All right, let's take a look from behind from behind you got it Once you've got you got a four-man rush that that's starting up here But they bar he's already checked and seen what's going on. They get everything cave It's a completely clean pocket to the left handed quarterbacks left I mean and this right here is pitch and catch The only thing that's stopping him is if he hit that wall with a w on it It has been said that he runs a four one-ish 40 you buy that under four two Well, he runs faster than anybody on the field. You see him kneeling down right here looking at the check He's looking for the check on this on this defense Single high safety. We talk about single high safety. This is the same team You'd think that they would have learned single high safety. Look at him looking at it It's the check they put him in here to check man's own declaration Now he's not in the stance yet. Is he he's looking go It's go it's single high coverage. He started to run the post Toa threw it back to his outside shoulder. This guy running 120 miles an hour made a move from The post back to the corner. Here we go Yeah, the scary thing about him is he's not just world-class speed He's also world-class quick as well. Well, absolutely. I mean this guy's got it all and he's not the only one Mike You know as you well know But they've got they've got a speed setup back there And so if they catch you in this man-to-man at inopportune times We've just seen two explosive plays back to back basically in a series And you're talking about tyree kill who's your 12 games has nearly 1500 yards receiving Already in 2023 and he said he wants to be the first 2000 yards. Yeah, he may do it Coach mack. Thanks. You're welcome. Thanks for the look at the cheetah We've got more coming up on this edition of titans all access right after this This is stadium in 60 a quick update on the titans new stadium presented by nissan The new titan stadium is being designed with sustainability in mind most stadiums built in the 1990s were designed the last 30 years This stadium is being planned with a much longer lifespan in mind Adam noose is a titan senior vice president and chief revenue officer This is a legacy project that is going to be something that is going to impact generations to come And when you think about that you think about functionality long-term sustainability long-term and some of that comes to the fan experience Not just for our kids, but our kids kids Kelly decorcy is the titans new stadium project executive You know for the titans organization to have a home that the titans fans can just embody and own and and have that Home field advantage every given sunday.

Okay, true story. We used to carry a trunk with this full of peanut butter jelly with all the Bread and they're typically but what happened and I want to say mike. It was the second quarter started We started making pvnj's and the guys were hungry so they came in and They changed their sweat and socks undershirts We started making pvnj's Even the general manager was hungry And then the second break we started making more pvnj and then we ran out of bananas ran up on oranges Then it went to half More pvnj's and then our close game food came which was uh mission barbecue So next thing you know in the third quarter, we're eating our close game food And then I get a call that we're out of bread and out of pvnj's So I go to the concessionaire front of mine that works Dom and tell me I get two more So at the end of the game, I was out of peanut butter. We were out of barbecue Sitting there and everybody's about to lose their mind. It should probably work as well And the quarterback it's time marcus said I really just want a pepper on the pizza So a little morrow on our staff I gave him My credit card he goes into the concourse Gets a pizza. So marcus is eating pizza Maybe that was the fourth quarter of them. Okay And then next you know players see it Like I want a pizza. Oh, wow. Here we go.

They average 428 yards per game They can run and they can pass they are going to school The titans scored 28 points last sunday. They'll likely need at least that on monday night Key number two drive the ball If you drive the football you keep the ball away from the miami offense and that's a good thing and Miami's red zone defense is not fantastic If you can get inside the dolphins 20 you have a good shot at a touchdown Key number three don't miss a shot at a turnover To a tongue of i loa has thrown 10 interceptions and he's fumbled 10 times The dolphins other players have fumbled an additional 10 times One way to limit the dolphins possessions is to force them into turnovers Miami will turn the ball over don't miss a chance when you have a shot at a takeaway That's going to do it for this edition of titans all access Reminds you to tune into this weekend's game Monday night as the titans take on the dolphins kickoff is set for 7 15 central time Titan's countdown gets you ready at 6 p.m. Central on monday That'll do it for this week's edition of titans all access i'm mike keith and we'll see you next time
