Podcasts about in the trenches

Dave Lapham caught up with Dave Berk following a wild day of news surrounding the Cincinnati Bengals for the seventh training camp report on In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics. The big news of the day (Recorded Before Official Bengals Release) was that former first-round draft pick Noah Fant was getting ready to sign a contract to wear stripes and give Joe Burrow another major weapon. Lap talks about the former Iowa tight end and what he brings to the field as well as what happened during practice as the Bengals were forced inside the bubble due to the weather. Also discussed was how Joe Burrow continues to have the best training camp of his career, the defense fully understanding what new defensive coordinator Al Golden wants, and Lapham's time being able to question and learn from NFL on-field officials.

The Cincinnati Bengals have finished their sixth training camp practice as they continue work towards the 2025 NFL season. In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, was on hand for all the action and discusses the return of star defensive end Trey Hendrickson to the active roster, which required the Bengals to release running back Zack Moss, and the move of bringing undrafted free agent center Seth McLaughlin to the active roster after he'd been placed on the Active Non-Football injury list before the start of training camp. Lapham and Dave Berk also discuss the latest Joe Burrow news as the star quarterback held a press conference after practice on Wednesday.  Another topic covered was the reasons right tackle Amarius Mims missed some practice reps during the morning practice.

The Cincinnati Bengals took the field Sunday morning for their fourth training camp practice. Dave Lapham was on hand for all the action as rookie first-round pick Shemar Stewart is now signed and on the field after holding out, leaving Trey Hendrickson as the only player missing as the Bengals enter Week Two of training camp. What did Lapham see from Stewart? How soon do the Bengals need to get Hendrickson in the fold? Who are the players stepping forward early in camp, showing marked improvement? Where are the Bengals at with their special teams as Evan McPherson is back after missing the latter part of the 2024 season? All that and more in the latest In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics.

Get an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the Cincinnati Bengals' roster-building strategy with Mike Potts, a key Bengals' personnel and scouting department member. In this insightful interview, Mike pulls back the curtain on the chaotic yet crucial off-season processes that shape the future of an NFL franchise. The off-season in the National Football League is a whirlwind of activity, and Mike Potts navigates through it all. His area of focus is college scouting, a vital ingredient in the modern NFL, where roster turnover is constant. No roster is the same from one year to the next, and the draft and college free agency are often the lifeblood of franchises looking to rebuild or maintain their competitive edge. Mike begins by vividly describing the current landscape, describing it as a "crazy time of the year" due to the simultaneous whirlwind of free agency, the NFL Combine, and the looming draft. He emphasizes that maintaining a consistent dialogue between the personnel staff, coaching staff, and ownership is crucial for aligning player evaluations and setting clear team goals. He dives into the Bengals' free agency strategy, highlighting the team's priority of re-signing their own players. He underlines the importance of understanding "scheme fit" and "culture fit," ensuring players align with the Bengals' values and locker room dynamics. While acknowledging the large sums of money thrown around in free agency, he stresses the importance of cap management. The Bengals are known for remaining responsible with their cap, and he discusses how the team balances retaining key players with adding talent from other organizations. The interview transitions into discussing the "secondary market" of free agency and finding opportunities beyond the initial bidding frenzy. Mike acknowledges that some players overshot the market, and being patient for the price to come down can present an opportunity. Samaje Perine is discussed, as is his importance to the Bengals organization. Sam Hubbard's departure from the team after an impressive career is also discussed. The discussion moves to the college draft, a central theme of Mike Potts' expertise. He emphasizes the value of players with positional versatility, as NFL rosters are limited in size, and players who can contribute in multiple roles are particularly valuable. He highlights BJ Hill, Mike Gesicki, and Cody Ford as players who can perform at numerous positions. Potts explains why his team is so important to him and the direction of the team. According to him, the team's job is to scout each player and understand everything from their college careers to more personal details. Transitioning to the upcoming NFL Draft, Potts assesses the overall depth and quality of the available talent. He explains that there may not be any first-ballot hall of farmers, but there is still a good amount of depth at various positions. As the interview wraps up, Potts emphasizes the ongoing nature of roster evaluation and improvement. He notes that the Bengals will continue to monitor the free-agent market, assess draft prospects, and identify players who can contribute to the team's success.

The Bengals keep a big pass catcher in town, and it's a big one! Dave Lapham dives deep into "In The Trenches" with veteran NFL tight end Mike Gesicki to discuss his decision to remain with the Cincinnati Bengals and what he hopes to keep bringing to the offense.  This exclusive interview, brought to you by First Star Logistics, explores Gesicki's journey from a multi-sport standout in high school to his professional career with the Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, and Cincinnati Bengals. Mike Gesicki is coming off of a one-year "prove it" deal with the Bengals, where he will continue to benefit from the trust, creativity, and football intelligence of Joe Burrow, a quarterback known for elevating the play of those around him. Gesicki knows that the connection with a QB as intelligent and creative as Burrow is a rare opportunity. The pair sees the game through the same lens, understands coverages, and makes adjustments on the fly, and that connection is primed to take his game to another level. Gesicki has signed a 3-year, $25.5 million deal with the Bengals. What does this "generational wealth" mean to him, and how did his multi-sport background shape him as an athlete? Dave and Mike dive into Mike's history as a high school superstar. At Southern Regional High School in New Jersey, Gesicki didn't just play multiple sports - he DOMINATED them, setting school records for basketball points, football receiving yards, and volleyball blocks. This multi-faceted athleticism gave him multiple opportunities to play in college: Basketball offers at Patriot League schools such as Colgate and Bucknell Recruited to play Volleyball at Penn State Football scholarship offers to big-time programs, and finally deciding to chase that dream How has his athletic background played a role in his NFL success? He has always been an athlete, but it wasn't until his career at Penn State with the Nittany Lions that his talents as a Tight End began to blossom. This was followed by his time with the Miami Dolphins, New England Patriots, and finally, landing with the Cincinnati Bengals. Gesicki credits much of his journey to working hard and staying consistent. That work ethic has carried him to where he is today! Gesicki possesses a rare blend of size, speed, and athleticism for a tight end. At 6'6" and 245 pounds, he boasts an incredible 41.5-inch vertical jump. What does it mean to have a vertical jump that impressive? He also ran a 4.5-second 40-yard dash and features an arm length of over 34 inches with a 10.25-inch hand. He's a physical marvel who can run routes, make contested catches, and even contribute as a blocker. He continues working with Tight Ends coach James Casey, a tremendous coach with years of experience. Casey had a fantastic career at Rice University and brings vast knowledge to help Gesicki. But what is the tight end room like even beyond the game? Gesicki loves the group, with Drew Sample, Tanner Hudson, Cam Grandy, and Tanner McLauchlin all contributing to the team's overall success. Versatility is the calling card for the Bengals Tight End room. Does Mike see himself as an offensive weapon that can be used in multiple ways? Will this help them to attack those slow starts they have endured over the last several years? The Bengals are trying to change things up to keep teams on their toes! Gesicki discusses the importance of the "contested catch" and how he thrives in those situations. When does he feel as though it was a strength of his? Does he feel as though it has gotten better and better as he got further into his career? Ultimately, Gesicki is thrilled to be a part of the Cincinnati Bengals organization. He values the team's culture, the coaching staff's vision, and the chance to play alongside Joe Burrow. He recognizes the potential for success in Cincinnati and is determined to contribute to the team's goals.

As a former NFL safety, Jordan Kovacs understands the mentality of both players and coaches. After his first season as the Cincinnati Bengals' secondary/safeties coach, Kovacs has been retained by new defensive coordinator Al Golden.  While grateful for the opportunity that Lou Anarumo and Zac Taylor gave him, he's also excited for Golden's return to the staff and the additions of linebackers coach Mike Hodges and defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery. Kovacs returns to In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss the new coaching additions and what he expects from the Bengals' defense, including Jordan Battle, Geno Stone, and more.

The 2024/25 NFL season is officially over, as the Philadelphia Eagles defeated the two-time defending Super Bowl champions, the Kansas City Chiefs, 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX. The game was decided "In The Trenches." Monday, Dave Lapham jumped in the First Star Logistics Studios to give his thoughts on the Eagles' big win as Jalen Hurts again outplayed Patrick Mahomes as the Eagles defense sacked Mahomes six times. Cooper DeJean gave himself a significant birthday memory with a pick-six touchdown in the second quarter.

Orlando Brown Jr. has learned the NFL is a business before it's a sport. During his career, Brown has worked with several coaches, and while sad to see Frank Pollack's time with the Cincinnati Bengals ended, Brown knows new offensive line coaches Scott Peters and Michael McCarthy will bring new tools to work with for the 2025 season. Brown returned to In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss the injury that sidelined him during part of the season, his return to the field, and his excitement with all the new coaches on both sides of the ball working to lead the Bengals to another AFC North title, AFC Championship, and Super Bowl appearance.

At the beginning of his Cincinnati Bengals career, linebacker Logan Wilson was connected with the new Bengals defensive coordinator, Al Golden. Golden, the Bengals' linebackers coach at the time, scouted and worked out Wilson before the 2020 NFL Draft when the Bengals selected the Wyoming product in the third round with the 65th pick. After two starting assignments as a rookie, Wilson was named the starting middle linebacker heading into his second season. He played a significant role in the team's playoff wins, becoming AFC Champions and earning a spot in the Super Bowl. With Golden leaving after the Super Bowl for the defensive coordinator position at the University of Notre Dame, Wilson had to adapt to a new linebackers coach. Now, the coach who played a major role in his joining the Bengals has Wilson ecstatic about his return as defensive coordinator. In this episode of In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, Logan Wilson talks about his excitement about Al Golden's return, the latest on how his rehab is going, and new linebackers coach Mike Hodges.

Mike Hodges spent the past eight seasons with the New Orleans Saints and is excited to bring his coaching skills to the Cincinnati Bengals as part of Al Golden's new defense. Hodges knows if the Bengals' defense has success, that means Joe Burrow will have more opportunities to put points on the scoreboard and help the Bengals get over the hump and back into the playoffs. Hodges makes his first appearance on In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to talk about his football journey from a player at Texas A&M to coach at the college level before being hired by head coach Sean Payton Saints as a defensive assistant before moving to linebackers after two seasons. Hodges discusses the work he's excited to start with current Bengals linebackers Logan Wilson and Germaine Pratt and getting ready to start work on the 2025 NFL Draft.

Last week, In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, introduced you to the young and intense Cincinnati Bengals offensive line coach Scott Peters. Peters explained how he was ready to take the Bengals' offensive line to new levels with his coaching style. Another young and intense coach on the Bengals staff is newly hired defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery, who brings a wealth of NFL experience to the Bengals and the intensity fans will love to see. If you liked what Coach Peters had to say, you'd love even more what Coach Montgomery says about his coaching style and how he's looking to revamp the Bengal's defense under new defensive coordinator Al Golden.

New Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Al Golden is no stranger to the  Bengals and the Cincinnati area, having coached linebackers with the Bengals during the 2020 and 2021 Super Bowl seasons. The past three seasons have seen Golden play a significant role in helping Marcus Freeman turn Notre Dame into a championship-caliber team that reached the College Football National Championship Game this past season. Now, Golden returns to the Bengals as defensive coordinator and looks to steer the Bengals' defense on a new course and return them to championship-level football in the NFL. Golden returns to In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss his journey back to the Bengals, his excitement for new defensive line coach Jerry Montgomery, and his reunion with some of the Bengals players he worked with before leaving for Notre Dame.

As Cincinnati Bengals center Ted Karras has learned during his nine seasons in the NFL, players and coaches come and go. Recently, the Bengals fired offensive line coach Frank Pollack and have hired Scott Peters as their new offensive line coach. Karras returned to In The Trenches with Dave Lapham, presented by First Star Logistics, to discuss the disappointments of the past season, entering his tenth season in the NFL, and how he's fired up to play for the Bengals new offensive line coach.

When all is said and done, one of the best trades ever made by the Cincinnati Bengals came when they sent Billy Price to the New York Giants for defensive tackle B.J. Hill before the start of the 2021 NFL season. Hill, now in his fourth season as a member of the Bengals defense, has played a key role in the team's on-field success and came up big again Saturday night against the Denver Broncos as the Bengals kept their playoff hopes alive for one more week.

The Cincinnati Bengals and Tennessee Titans played sloppy football Sunday afternoon at Nissan Stadium.  Even quarterback Joe Burrow got in the action with two interceptions and a fumble despite setting a pair of club single-season records with his sixth straight game with at least three scoring throws and his 36th touchdown pass of the season. Ultimately, the Bengals returned home with their sixth victory this season in a 37-27 win over their former offensive coordinator, Brian Callahan, and some former teammates.

The Cincinnati Bengals took care of business in their latest primetime appearance on Monday Night Football. AT&T Stadium, aka Jerry's World, is one of the great stadiums in the NFL. However, Joe Burrow and Ja'Marr Chase put on a show, and what looked like a special teams mistake by the Bengals turned into one for the Cowboys. This set the stage for the Bengals to get a needed win on a season in which all the bounces have gone the opposite way. Burrow, who threw for 369 yards and three touchdowns on the night, found his favorite receiver 14 times during the game for 177 yards and two of those touchdown throws. Chase Brown rushed for 58 yards while adding six receptions for 65 yards and a score that saw him walk a tightrope down the sidelines for a dynamic score. The 27-20 win moved the Bengals to 5-8 on the season with four games remaining. Next will be the Tennessee Titans and former Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan. The Titans are coming off a tough 10-6 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars and enter the game with a 3-10 record.

With an 8-3 record, the Pittsburgh Steelers are one of the surprise teams in the NFL. However, they've only played two AFC North games, one with a win over the Baltimore Ravens and one with a loss against the Cleveland Browns.  Now, they start a stretch of games that includes games against the Cincinnati Bengals and the Cleveland Browns, a road game against the Ravens in Week 16, and a game against the Bengals to close out the season. With back-to-back losses before their Bye Week, the Bengals are hoping to turn their 4-7 season around and make a push to earn a Wild Card spot in the playoffs. The road will not be easy, and it starts Sunday afternoon when the Steelers come to Paycor Stadium.

It's another Victory Monday.

I met Jake through my sports media platforms when he was coaching high school football here locally in Idaho. Today, through this interview, I learn about his story on how he got to where he's at and what helped shape him in his journey. Through our conversation we'll learn about his business at In The Trenches Academy and what inspired this business plan.  This is an incredibly insightful interview. One I hope you all pay attention to. If you are a parent of an athlete, I would encourage you to listen and have your children listen as well.  Jake is a man of character who understands the importance of perseverance. Playing college football for a program that didn't win many games during his tenure there, yet he understood the importance of strapping up the pads and getting to work each and every day. This has transpired into his regular life in his full-time career(s) as well!  He's a well respected coach and trainer in the football scene too. Between coaching at the high school level and running In The Trenches Academy, he's inspiring young athletes to develop, improve, and have chances to play at the next level.  One of the great things about what he is doing with In The Trenches Academy, along with his business partner, is they are bringing linemen together to learn the techniques and skills that are necessary to make a difference 'in the trenches.' You see so many different skill position camps and training facilities, but there aren't as many places for linemen to go for the same types of training. It's unique and a great opportunity for those on the offensive and defensive lines to improve in their game!  Please join me in following and supporting Jake and his business by sharing this podcast with others around you.
