1 00:00:00,840 --> 00:00:06,560 Speaker 1: That was, but the montage was terrific. You're getting plenty 2 00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,440 Speaker 1: of compliments. I asked you if we had used that before. 3 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 1: I did not recognize the song nor the artist. You said, 4 00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: we've used it once before. You document them all. You 5 00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,479 Speaker 1: even have a date. I believe that you played it 6 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:23,080 Speaker 1: on Huh, so we've used that's Aerosmith, same old song 7 00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:26,159 Speaker 1: and dance, same old, same old, And it sort of was. 8 00:00:26,200 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say it was a carbon copy of what 9 00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:34,840 Speaker 1: we've seen so far from the Vikings, but certainly depressing, 10 00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:36,560 Speaker 1: I guess is a word you could use the word 11 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:43,519 Speaker 1: that I was searching for was. I guess depressing would work. 12 00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 1: There was another D word I was thinking about, dang it. 13 00:00:46,800 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: Dang it would work. That's two words. Actually, dang it 14 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: that's too bad. Demoralizing, I think would be the word 15 00:00:56,760 --> 00:00:58,600 Speaker 1: I was looking for. It's demoralizing. 16 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 2: But what are you gonna do? 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: Uh? 18 00:01:05,040 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 2: I mean your montage summed it all up? Uh? 19 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: You know again, we'll do what we always do on 20 00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 1: a Monday. It's the post mortem. We we we sift. 21 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,160 Speaker 2: Through the rubble. 22 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 1: That is another Vikings loss, the post mortem. The what 23 00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:30,920 Speaker 1: is it when you what's the word I'm looking for 24 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: that you do if you work as a you dissect. No, 25 00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 1: you're trying to figure out how they died. What's the 26 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:42,120 Speaker 1: word I'm looking for autopsy. Autopsy. There you can appreciate 27 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: that the autopsy of the death of yesterday's game. That 28 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,040 Speaker 1: was the Vikings. I don't even remember what the final 29 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 1: score was, we had it. It was right there. It 30 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,240 Speaker 1: was the one thing that was carbon copy, like for 31 00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:55,400 Speaker 1: sure was you know it wasn't. It didn't go down 32 00:01:55,440 --> 00:01:58,160 Speaker 1: exactly the same way as the first Bears game, but 33 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 1: it looked like it was going to be very similar. 34 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: Where the young quarterback who struggled again for most of 35 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 1: the entire game and struggled Chipskog and summed it up 36 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: pretty well in his UH piece A Fisher Rep Factory 37 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,639 Speaker 1: West Side columnist Fellow would bury and we text and 38 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,000 Speaker 1: talk more than most people know. He thought this might 39 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:24,440 Speaker 1: have been the most alarming performance so far by by McCarthy, 40 00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:28,120 Speaker 1: and I tend to agree with that. But he took 41 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 1: the team down lickety split in just a few short minutes, 42 00:02:32,080 --> 00:02:35,799 Speaker 1: and we got the lead, and then we lost the lead. 43 00:02:36,240 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: A kick off or turn by is it DuVernay? I 44 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: guess he's really good at that. I don't even know 45 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: why you don't just kick the ball out of the end, 46 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,239 Speaker 1: not even let him get the ball. I guess because 47 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 1: you don't want to start at the thirty five. 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 4: But I don't know. 49 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,040 Speaker 2: I just don't. 50 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: I wouldn't. I wouldn't let him. And as soon as 51 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: he returned, they weren'tield goald range. 52 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 2: I was it? 53 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: They they then they moved it a little closer to 54 00:02:58,160 --> 00:03:00,960 Speaker 1: make sure, and then I thought he was going to miss, 55 00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,320 Speaker 1: because I don't think their kicker is that trustworthy or 56 00:03:03,320 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: am I wrong? He's about him, he's just okay, you know, 57 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,839 Speaker 1: he's probably missing as many as he makes or yeah, right, 58 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: So you know, I still thought the Bikings were going 59 00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 1: to steal it, but they ran the ball more than 60 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,840 Speaker 1: they have and I don't think that. You know, the 61 00:03:20,840 --> 00:03:23,360 Speaker 1: coach has been very stubborn coach being Kevin O'Connor, very 62 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: stubborn about throwing. He likes to throw the ball. He 63 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 1: makes no bones about it. He's a former quarterback. He 64 00:03:29,639 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: was instrumental in leading the Rams to a big game 65 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: appearance all those years ago. 66 00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:36,040 Speaker 2: With Jared Goffer quarterback. 67 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: He was the offensive coordinator, though I think Sean McVay 68 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:41,680 Speaker 1: was kind of the play caller. Isn't that how it 69 00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 1: went there too? Wasn't wasn't O'Connell considered the offensive coordinator. 70 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:45,320 Speaker 2: With his quarterback. 71 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,640 Speaker 5: He's basically what Wes Phillips is here, right, His label 72 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 5: is the offensive coordinator, but the place. 73 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: But he he's been given a lot of credit for 74 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: and right, Philly, So I'm sure. I mean, I don't know, 75 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: you know again, Tenneby, for as wildly successful as the 76 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:03,240 Speaker 1: common Man Programs is mildly success? Did I say wildly? 77 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: I meant to say mildly. You just change one letter, 78 00:04:06,800 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: you turn the am upside down w upside down to this. 79 00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: Miley says, you have a lot, You've had a lot 80 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: to do with it. Oh and I appreciate that. 81 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: Thank you. 82 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,240 Speaker 2: I think we did this last week. I think I 83 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 2: was verbally slappy. 84 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, we're all these compliments coming from I don't know, 85 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 5: you like getting emotional. Is there a big moment that's 86 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:24,880 Speaker 5: going to be coming up here? 87 00:04:25,040 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: Well? I heard that. I was told I got a 88 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:32,200 Speaker 1: phone call from somebody regarding programming on the fan, which 89 00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: is bizarre because it's got to be really something beyond 90 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,719 Speaker 1: the pale for someone to contact me about it and 91 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:42,440 Speaker 1: said that it was that I didn't know Fantasy Football 92 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: Weekly was going away who who in the corners of 93 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:51,440 Speaker 1: us and make a decision like that, The most not mildly, 94 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: wildly successful show in the history of the fan has 95 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:57,200 Speaker 1: just gone. Now the hell am I going to do 96 00:04:57,279 --> 00:05:00,640 Speaker 1: for my fantasy football team this Saturday? I don't even 97 00:05:00,680 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 1: know who to play? 98 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 4: Now? 99 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 1: Who do I sit? Who do I play? I mean, 100 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:06,719 Speaker 1: where do you get advice? 101 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 4: Like? 102 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 1: Where are we going to get advice? 103 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 4: Like? 104 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:16,400 Speaker 1: Brady's not He's done, He's done. Not only is he 105 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 1: not the best quarterback in football, he's not even the 106 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 1: best quarterback on their roster. That would be your guy, 107 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo. We're going to get advice about that? Or 108 00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 1: how about there are ninety better running backs in safe one? 109 00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:31,120 Speaker 2: Mark he's cooked? 110 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 1: He's cooked? Am I going to get advice like that? 111 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 1: But I heard it got very emotional. I heard there 112 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,479 Speaker 1: was people were calling it. There was crying. It's a 113 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 1: radio show about something is inconsequential is fantasy football? And 114 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:53,680 Speaker 1: I know people are into it. There was a time 115 00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:59,599 Speaker 1: I was, but there was sobbing on one hundred thousand, 116 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,680 Speaker 1: and I couldn't look because I was playing golf and 117 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: I wasn't playing I had it going early. There's no 118 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,360 Speaker 1: read to do. It's two over standing on eight te 119 00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 1: box at Prestwick force carryover water, strong wind. And you 120 00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 1: know what I did. I did what I hadn't been 121 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: doing all day. But one of the other changes, not 122 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 1: just in my swing Prestwick eight and I'm sorry. 123 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:27,080 Speaker 2: The force carryover water. 124 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 1: What I've been doing is really taking my and making 125 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,040 Speaker 1: sure a lot of times I just go up and swing, 126 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:36,160 Speaker 1: especially if it's a trickier shot, because sometimes that's the 127 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 1: right thing to do. And I just I did the 128 00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 1: Joe Maher quick swing and hit the ball right into 129 00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: the water. Went from two over to five over, just 130 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 1: like that. But I would have been better off listening 131 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,040 Speaker 1: to the final, the Grand finale of Fantasy Football Weekly. 132 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,719 Speaker 1: I would think it's probably the most listened to radio program, 133 00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: not just in fan history, but maybe the entire since 134 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: since Edison invented the wacky thing called the radio or 135 00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:01,679 Speaker 1: was that Tesla? 136 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 2: No, it was Marconi, that's what it was. 137 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 1: But we were not familiar with Marconi's Here at this 138 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,680 Speaker 1: radio station, we've been nominated. If you want to talk 139 00:07:12,760 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: marconez or should have Dave Brian come in. I think 140 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 1: he's won at least one, if not a couple. They're 141 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 1: giving away Marconi's at Old Depot, so we'll get to 142 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,559 Speaker 1: that a little bit later. I heard charge we verbally 143 00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: slapped a lot of people on the back, and I 144 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 1: didn't get a chance to hear it. So I'm wondering 145 00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: what he had to say about me. So well, well 146 00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,400 Speaker 1: we'll do that a little bit later in the program. 147 00:07:29,400 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: On other side of the break, we'll continue to break 148 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 1: down the vikings. Do the autopsy the post mortem of 149 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 1: a disappointing loss to the Windy City Grizzlies nineteen seventeen. 150 00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,800 Speaker 1: Final vikings dropped to fourteen and six. Other side of 151 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: the break, peak at the Purple brought to by a 152 00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: Foura Milt Watric.

It seemed like almost every 190 00:10:01,920 --> 00:10:07,760 Speaker 1: single possession that they had, and it didn't work too bad. 191 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:09,440 Speaker 1: I mean, they had a nice was it one hundred 192 00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,360 Speaker 1: and fifteen yards total on the ground, They ran the 193 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 1: ball Okay, McCarthy had a couple of throws that were key, 194 00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:19,840 Speaker 1: and of course that last series was very reminiscent of 195 00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:23,600 Speaker 1: what he did against the Bears the first time around. 196 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 1: But again it was too little, too late in the 197 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 1: Vikings lose the game. I don't know what to make 198 00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 1: of the quarterback. We still have a couple of different camps. 199 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:36,320 Speaker 2: I'm told. 200 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 1: PA was in full defense mode today. This one says 201 00:10:46,160 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: PA had lost his mind. 202 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:47,559 Speaker 2: Now. 203 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: I think I knew that before hearing about what he 204 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 1: had to say about JJ's performance. But he says when 205 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:58,200 Speaker 1: he was relentlessly defending McCarthy like usual, he mentioned it 206 00:10:58,240 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: took six seven. 207 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 2: Years for Sam Darnold to play. Well, he's willing. 208 00:11:03,000 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: To see six years of waiting for this kid to 209 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 1: get it should happen sooner than that, I would assume 210 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:13,840 Speaker 1: he would. He'll get, he'll get. He can't get much worse, right, 211 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,880 Speaker 1: I mean, it's like there's you're about as low as 212 00:11:15,880 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: it can. You sent me a screen shot of Alec Lewis. 213 00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:26,840 Speaker 2: Tweet that said. 214 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: Current QB efficiency rate on r B s DM. 215 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 2: What is RB s DM? No idea? 216 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 1: I don't either, But this chart, like it looks like 217 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,719 Speaker 1: may j Love and and and and Josh Allen are 218 00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,719 Speaker 1: at the best numbers like zero point three zero. You 219 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: know again, this is that sabermetrics analytics. I always just 220 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: look at can a quarterback lead a team down the 221 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:57,400 Speaker 1: field late in the game and win it? And JJ 222 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:05,720 Speaker 1: did that, so by that by at barometer, he was 223 00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 1: pretty good yesterday. But anyway, then McCarthy's rock bottom. I 224 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: mean it's way at the bottom too. It's like there's 225 00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:18,679 Speaker 1: a huge gap between him and and uh Dylan Gabriel, Yeah, Dylan, 226 00:12:19,480 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 1: Dylan Gabriel and who else, cam Ward and a couple 227 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 1: of us. 228 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 2: Not good, No, it's not good. 229 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 5: And some hurts even more when Darnold's basically the second 230 00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 5: best quarterback on here. 231 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and now Donald was awful yesterday, four interceptions, yet 232 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 1: they almost won a game as well. 233 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 2: Goff was awful. 234 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 1: Williams was just okay. He had the same completion that 235 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,880 Speaker 1: he was sixteen thirty two, just like McCarthy, and I 236 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:47,200 Speaker 1: don't think Jay Love played particularly well. It wasn't a 237 00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 1: great day for many quarterbacks except I guess Josh Allen. 238 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:55,959 Speaker 1: He tied a National Football League record of three rushing 239 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 1: touchdowns and three passing touchdowns in the same game. You 240 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 1: know who. He tied the record with Tennabe. The greatest 241 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:05,240 Speaker 1: quarterback in the history of pro football, Auto Graham and 242 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 1: Otto Graham did it in the nineteen fifty four championship 243 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:14,839 Speaker 1: game when you really need to rise to the occasion, 244 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,640 Speaker 1: in the biggest game of the season. Auto Graham the 245 00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,520 Speaker 1: greatest quarterback in the history of pro football. He's automatic. 246 00:13:21,600 --> 00:13:25,280 Speaker 1: He's automatic. I like that He's automatic. So yeah, and 247 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: you know, I see it. There are there's a couple 248 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 1: of different camps. Everybody has to be in a camp. 249 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 1: You either wish they would just move on from JJ 250 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 1: McCarthy right now, and you're still waxing nostalgic for the 251 00:13:38,360 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 1: days of Sam Darnald, Danny Dimes, or even the opportunity 252 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:43,120 Speaker 1: to sign Aaron Rodgers, which I would have done. I 253 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:44,559 Speaker 1: would have done any of the I would have done 254 00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,000 Speaker 1: the Donald or the Rogers. I wasn't so convinced about 255 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: Danny Dimes because really he's he was only here just 256 00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:54,520 Speaker 1: on the practice squad, so it wasn't like he showed 257 00:13:54,600 --> 00:13:57,720 Speaker 1: us anything here. I did not see Danny Dimes. I 258 00:13:57,760 --> 00:14:01,080 Speaker 1: did not mind them letting him go. Thought I thought 259 00:14:01,120 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: they should have signed Donald. Course after Yesterday's came you wonderful. 260 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: Maybe they made the right decision. But every quarterback is 261 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 1: even the best in the business. And bet Rams Club, 262 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: last I checked, is really really good. Same with all. 263 00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:13,600 Speaker 2: I would let Golf off the hook a little bit too. 264 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,760 Speaker 2: That Philadelphia defense is so. 265 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:18,000 Speaker 1: Much better than I thought they were, and the Lions 266 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:20,360 Speaker 1: offensive line is at mess and Golf had no time 267 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 1: to throw them when he did he wasn't hitting guys, 268 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: and then you're my guy, Danny Campbell, and look at it. 269 00:14:27,440 --> 00:14:31,040 Speaker 2: I love the go for it on fourth down. 270 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:34,520 Speaker 1: But you got to kind of that was when they 271 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,600 Speaker 1: were having to score thirty thirty five points a game 272 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 1: because their defense was so bad. Right, So that's you 273 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:40,960 Speaker 1: had to go because the field goals weren't going to 274 00:14:41,000 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: do it. Yes, you got to kind of know the situation. 275 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 1: And Duce and I were kind of like, might want 276 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: to take three here. I know this is what we do. 277 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:51,840 Speaker 1: But it's a low scoring game. Nobody's moving the ball 278 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: very well. But yeah, so there was a lot of 279 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:00,080 Speaker 1: a lot of poor quarterback play. It starts right here at. 280 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:03,160 Speaker 5: The bank. 281 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:04,360 Speaker 2: We'll take a break, we'll come back. 282 00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,080 Speaker 1: The head coach should be next Peak at the Purple 283 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 1: brought to you by Affordable Electric, Affordable Dash Electric Dot Com, 284 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: o'conne's next year on the Fan. 285 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 5: Kfan and the Vikings are teaming up for Toys for Tots. 286 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 5: Join us live at Shields and Eden Prairie on Tuesday, 287 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:28,800 Speaker 5: December second from five thirty am to six thirty pm 288 00:15:28,920 --> 00:15:32,320 Speaker 5: for our annual broadcast presented by Unreal.

Details at kfan dot com slash toys. 292 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,680 Speaker 1: My sources tell me Jacoby Brisset completed forty seven passes 293 00:15:47,760 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 1: yesterday he did? Is that an NFL NFL record? I 294 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: thought we'd given up on here. Why I say we, 295 00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: I just mean, you know, NF, the the the the 296 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:03,480 Speaker 1: National Football League fandom, the people that work for the 297 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,080 Speaker 1: National Football League, the coach that play, the whole thing. 298 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 1: I thought Jacoby Brissett was an afterthought. How about forty 299 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: seven completions. It's doing something, right. I think that's more 300 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: than McCarthy's had all season long, if I'm not mistaken. 301 00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,280 Speaker 2: But then again, I don't know about that for sure. 302 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: We're waiting the arrival of the head coach of the 303 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: soon to be Big Game World champion Minnesota Vikings. We'll 304 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: get to some text messages so well as well, some 305 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,080 Speaker 1: venting by Viking fans, and. 306 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 2: They're text message Monday. It's a text message Monday. 307 00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,200 Speaker 1: And there are there are many fans venting, many fans 308 00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:35,600 Speaker 1: that are disappointed, fans that are angry. But then there 309 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:38,360 Speaker 1: are those that still want to do the old You know, 310 00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:41,000 Speaker 1: Josh Allen and Peyton Manny were really bad in there 311 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 1: for and you know that's that's a valid point. But 312 00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:47,360 Speaker 1: you know, as Tennebe and I talked about last week, 313 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 1: as Tennebe. 314 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 2: So also were they this bat well, yeah, I don't know, right, Well, 315 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: that's it, they. 316 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:52,160 Speaker 5: Were, I do. 317 00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: There's levels, there's levels of badness and and the other 318 00:16:56,240 --> 00:16:58,920 Speaker 1: thing is you can find all sorts of examples of 319 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,080 Speaker 1: like Tim Tebow was really terrible in his first few 320 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 1: years and he's out of the league. 321 00:17:03,280 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 5: So you know, I've shot a seventy four in golf before. 322 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 5: That doesn't mean that I'm basically like on a professional 323 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 5: golfer level. 324 00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,639 Speaker 2: No, though, you had. 325 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: An experience that was not unlike that of a PGA 326 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 1: Tour pro that one day. But you're absolutely right, that's 327 00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:19,480 Speaker 1: the point. So again, you can make those silly comparisons 328 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 1: all you want. I can only go by what I've 329 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,200 Speaker 1: seen by this young man and has not been good. 330 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: That being said, it's yeah, I don't think you move 331 00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:31,360 Speaker 1: on from him today. You trade it up to get him. 332 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: You've got time and money invested in him. And when 333 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,160 Speaker 1: I say money, I don't necessarily mean his salary because 334 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:38,840 Speaker 1: he's making the NFL minimum or you know whatever the 335 00:17:38,920 --> 00:17:44,000 Speaker 1: first year contract is for you know, that first four year, 336 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: five year contract, what do they call the rookie deal. 337 00:17:47,240 --> 00:17:49,320 Speaker 1: Under the rookie deal, just the amount of money they're 338 00:17:49,359 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 1: investing in research and you know, playing games, and this 339 00:17:52,760 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: and the other thing, and and sweat equity and just 340 00:17:57,080 --> 00:18:01,639 Speaker 1: I mean one thing that we were talking about Tennebee 341 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: earlier this year, when McCarthy struggled in those you know 342 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: he had he had the great game against Chicago, then 343 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: he struggled against the Falcons and he was out for 344 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,439 Speaker 1: five weeks because of the sprained ankle. And you and 345 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:15,120 Speaker 1: I were like, well, you got to keep playing wins 346 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:16,920 Speaker 1: as long as he wins and plays well, because he. 347 00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:18,520 Speaker 2: Gives you the best chance to win right now. 348 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: And there were those fans that said and met and 349 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:22,680 Speaker 1: there were there were a lot a lot of people 350 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: were saying, well, no, you've got to play this kid 351 00:18:27,600 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: in order to see what you have. And one of 352 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,920 Speaker 1: my comebacks to that, one of my arguments was, well, 353 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 1: there's a whole organization and there's a whole roster of 354 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: players in front office that they can't wait forever for that, 355 00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,119 Speaker 1: And that was pointed out. There was a piece I 356 00:18:45,119 --> 00:18:47,159 Speaker 1: think it was Saturday prior to the game in the 357 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,040 Speaker 1: fish rapt Factory West Side with that said exactly that, 358 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:54,240 Speaker 1: And so I think sometimes fans just get short sighted. 359 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: They just look at from a fan point of view 360 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: and it's like, well, this season's over, we can't win 361 00:18:59,400 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 1: this year. Let's just see if we have a quarterback. 362 00:19:01,640 --> 00:19:07,080 Speaker 1: But it's it's more nuanced than that, because the players 363 00:19:07,080 --> 00:19:10,160 Speaker 1: in the organization that came here to win football game, 364 00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: justin Jefferson doesn't want to spend three four years finding 365 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,720 Speaker 1: out if this kid can play quarterback or not, because 366 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:20,359 Speaker 1: if he can't, that's three four years he's wasted of 367 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: his career, and all the other players and the coach 368 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:26,240 Speaker 1: will be fired by then. It's it's more than just 369 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: you know, you watching your games on Sundays or Mondays 370 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:33,119 Speaker 1: or Thursday night or Tuesday night. 371 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: Regondless of what night it is. 372 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:38,240 Speaker 1: And that was pointed out in a piece and I'll 373 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 1: get to a couple of those quotes a little bit 374 00:19:41,640 --> 00:19:43,120 Speaker 1: later in the program. 375 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,680 Speaker 5: Obviously, we have some time and things are going to 376 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 5: change or could change. But as I said, on November seventeenth. 377 00:19:51,640 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 5: If he keeps playing this way or just makes very 378 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:58,159 Speaker 5: slight progress the rest of the way, we're having a 379 00:19:58,200 --> 00:20:00,000 Speaker 5: discussion in the off season what we're doing about the QUARTERBA. 380 00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 2: Yes, I hear next year, here's someone that's in, here's someone. 381 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 1: He loves the Josh Allen, Yes, Josh Allen was this 382 00:20:07,480 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: bad this time his time, his his time year he 383 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:15,960 Speaker 1: had ten tds, twelve inns and a sixty seven QB rate. 384 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,800 Speaker 1: I take that right now out of our quarterback. Those 385 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:21,920 Speaker 1: are actually pretty good numbers compared to how he's been 386 00:20:22,840 --> 00:20:23,640 Speaker 1: he's been playing. 387 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 4: Some other. 388 00:20:31,359 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: This one says, I'm literally just annoyed seeing mcarthy in 389 00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:37,200 Speaker 1: a press conference post game. If there's a slightly better 390 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:39,240 Speaker 1: version of pon Or it's him, and that's not good. 391 00:20:39,680 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 1: I just have to pinch myself. For the next two 392 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:45,600 Speaker 1: plus years, he is our QB. Oh goodie. I'd love 393 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: to see some brozmer at some point. I feel he's 394 00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: presently more pro ready to lead an offense. 395 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 2: McCarthy. 396 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,439 Speaker 1: And you know, yesterday he was asked. I watched the 397 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 1: news conference. 398 00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,560 Speaker 2: On tape and somebody asked. 399 00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: McCarthy that one of the local media or I asked 400 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:11,800 Speaker 1: O'Connell basically, had you considered, and he goes, I'm not 401 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: going there right now. 402 00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:15,560 Speaker 2: He didn't want to talk about that because I think 403 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 2: I don't think there is any considered. 404 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 1: You've got to remember a lot of his reputation I 405 00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:28,760 Speaker 1: meet O'Connell, is is. 406 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,159 Speaker 2: Is attached to J. J. McCarthy. It just is. 407 00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:34,879 Speaker 1: It's the guy you hand picked him. Now again, I know, 408 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 1: apparently he wanted Drake May. Everybody wanted Drake May. Drake 409 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: May wasn't there, so then you had to as matter 410 00:21:43,080 --> 00:21:48,359 Speaker 1: of fact, there was was it four quarterbacks taking before McCarthy, four, five, six, seven, 411 00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:52,240 Speaker 1: whatever it was, and the vikings you could say maybe 412 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 1: it was a reach to select McCarthy. We go back 413 00:21:55,840 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: to all the things about I know he you know, 414 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,360 Speaker 1: you don't. In all his time as quarterback in high 415 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: school and college, he'd only lost one game. But we 416 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 1: talked about a tenn tobe And it doesn't mean the 417 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,679 Speaker 1: guy can't be a good quarterback because he made throws 418 00:22:08,720 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 1: in college. But when you're on a run first team 419 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: and a very good run first team and a team 420 00:22:13,800 --> 00:22:17,960 Speaker 1: that ended up winning a national championship, it's more quarterback 421 00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 1: friendly that way because the opposition is generally geared to 422 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,440 Speaker 1: stop the run, and when you do throw the ball 423 00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: that often times comes as a surprise. 424 00:22:30,119 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 4: It's not to. 425 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:34,040 Speaker 1: Say that he didn't make nice throws and wasn't the 426 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,879 Speaker 1: passing game wasn't a part of Michigan's. 427 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: National championship year. 428 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 1: But it's just it's a whole different ballgames, particularly just 429 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,480 Speaker 1: at the college level to begin with. I mean, you 430 00:22:44,520 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: look at the Big Eighteen right now. There are literally 431 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:48,920 Speaker 1: three or four good teams in the Big eighteen, and 432 00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 1: the rest are just average football teams. They're your Minnesota 433 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: Golden Golfers, in your Michigan State Spartan and all these 434 00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 1: other club gas is. They're just the Wisconsin's Is. They're 435 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,440 Speaker 1: just okay teams. They're not very good. So you can 436 00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:07,480 Speaker 1: padd stats, especially when you know in Michigan's defense was 437 00:23:07,520 --> 00:23:15,199 Speaker 1: always is always good. So and again, part of the 438 00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:19,600 Speaker 1: issue for some of us was the idea of turning 439 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:22,719 Speaker 1: the team over to basically a rookie quarterback. I know, 440 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:25,320 Speaker 1: you know, he's technically not a rookie. 441 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:25,919 Speaker 2: He missed us. 442 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,760 Speaker 1: He didn't play last year because of the knee surgery. 443 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: But when you have a team coming off, I think 444 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:35,120 Speaker 1: they were thirteen to four. I know the last two 445 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:38,719 Speaker 1: games went poorly, they were awful. The game against Detroit was, 446 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,200 Speaker 1: as Mark Rosen would say, a hot mess. Certainly, the 447 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,840 Speaker 1: game against the Rams was terrible all Certainly Darnold was 448 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: really bad in the Detroit game, but the Rams game 449 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: that was more on the offensive line. How many times 450 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 1: we have to say if the head coach immediately followed, 451 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 1: immediately following the game, said we have to rebuild the 452 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,600 Speaker 1: interior of our offensive line, he pulled no punches. Usually 453 00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:03,920 Speaker 1: coaches don't make those kind of don't even I'm not 454 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: even gonna call it a rash conclusion or even, but 455 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 1: generally they don't say those things publicly immediately following a game. 456 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,719 Speaker 1: They kind of couch things, think it over, and then 457 00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:18,879 Speaker 1: quietly make their decisions. But he was obviously just a 458 00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:21,679 Speaker 1: devastating end of the season last year. I mean, you 459 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: were one win away against Detroit from being the number 460 00:24:27,080 --> 00:24:29,639 Speaker 1: one seed and having a first round by to having 461 00:24:29,680 --> 00:24:32,480 Speaker 1: to play getting to the fifth seed, having to play 462 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,920 Speaker 1: right and getting steamrolled by the Rams, And so I 463 00:24:34,960 --> 00:24:39,639 Speaker 1: can understand why there was disappointment and even anger from 464 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:42,520 Speaker 1: the head coach and the rest of the organization, and 465 00:24:42,560 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 1: that's when they made the decision. And then I don't 466 00:24:45,640 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: know how much of this quarterback whisper or stuff has 467 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:56,439 Speaker 1: got is because he's considered. I guess you're really good 468 00:24:56,480 --> 00:25:00,760 Speaker 1: at developing quarterbacks. I've not seen that quarterback development yet. 469 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 2: And I know Donald. 470 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 1: I'll give him his credit for Donald, but I can 471 00:25:06,280 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 1: get you the quotes. 472 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:08,400 Speaker 2: I've got him. I looked them up. 473 00:25:09,040 --> 00:25:12,639 Speaker 1: Donald basically said all of his success last year was 474 00:25:12,680 --> 00:25:16,600 Speaker 1: doing large part more than anything, to playing under Brock, 475 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: playing alongside Rock Pretty for an entire year. 476 00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,480 Speaker 2: I got the quotes if you want him. 477 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:23,480 Speaker 1: He said, Pretty taught him everything about being a quarterback, 478 00:25:23,760 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 1: how to be patient, how to be gentle, how to 479 00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:26,920 Speaker 1: be kind. 480 00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:29,640 Speaker 2: That's a quote from the Bible. I think. I think 481 00:25:29,640 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 2: that's the ones that we use when you get married. 482 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:33,480 Speaker 2: I think everybody. 483 00:25:33,560 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 1: Oh, anyway, but that's what he says. And you know, yeah, 484 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: you know, when you have a quarterback friendly system, and look, 485 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: O'Connor can call a good game. I think he called 486 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,679 Speaker 1: a fairly good game yesterday. And again I'm not an 487 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: expert at that. I don't know exactly. You know, it's 488 00:25:49,040 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: always a chess match. Going on out there, right Tenneby. 489 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: You know it's it's like you like a matter of fact, 490 00:25:55,080 --> 00:25:56,439 Speaker 1: I was reading the piece that I don't know if 491 00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:59,159 Speaker 1: it was. It might have been a fishrap East or 492 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:04,040 Speaker 1: West or Athletic, but somebody was writing about how I 493 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 1: think was Cashper was saying, we got kind of fooled 494 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 1: a little bit by the running game. We did not 495 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:11,920 Speaker 1: see the running game we prepared a paraphrase, but the 496 00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:14,200 Speaker 1: running game we prepared for was not the running game 497 00:26:14,240 --> 00:26:18,800 Speaker 1: we saw. They did some different things, and that's that 498 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 1: chess match thing. That's where Ben Johnson is. That's why 499 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,600 Speaker 1: he's so highly regarded. He knew the Vikings would be 500 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,080 Speaker 1: looking at tape watching what they did. He knows the 501 00:26:29,200 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: Viking strengths and weaknesses defensively, he knows what Beflow likes 502 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,240 Speaker 1: to do, much like Beflow probably knows what Ben Johnson 503 00:26:35,320 --> 00:26:35,760 Speaker 1: likes to do. 504 00:26:36,200 --> 00:26:38,520 Speaker 2: But apparently if you look at it, and I'll try 505 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:39,160 Speaker 2: to dig up those. 506 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:41,359 Speaker 1: Quotes a little bit later in the grum as well, 507 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,359 Speaker 1: so you know, there's there's a lot of different moving 508 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:47,800 Speaker 1: parts here to how this all works out. And you know, 509 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 1: now I saw another graph I don't know where I 510 00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: saw it, but it's like our chance to like, you know, 511 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: get to the game is like, you know, three percent 512 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: is that high? It's it just it's or maybe it 513 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:08,720 Speaker 1: was what it was. I think the graft showed like 514 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:11,120 Speaker 1: there's like a ninety percent chance we'll get the first 515 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: pick overall the National. 516 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:13,520 Speaker 2: Football League Draft. 517 00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 1: Because there's and the reason we're not ninety seven percent 518 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 1: because there's other teams that are that are obviously are 519 00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 1: really in the tank. I mean, do we still have 520 00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:24,679 Speaker 1: a one win team in the league somewhere. 521 00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:25,080 Speaker 2: Well, the Jets got to be. 522 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:26,760 Speaker 1: I think the Jets are our one or two win 523 00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 1: team at the most. So the chance of the Vikings 524 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: getting the pick overall are are It's not going to happen. 525 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,639 Speaker 1: I wouldn't think, but before. 526 00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,920 Speaker 2: Maybe get in the top ten. They could get in 527 00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 2: the top ten. 528 00:27:36,680 --> 00:27:36,879 Speaker 4: You know. 529 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 5: So I know you talked about this about twelve minutes 530 00:27:39,200 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 5: ago now, but can I push back on this, Josh 531 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:42,720 Speaker 5: Allen comparison to some of the. 532 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,360 Speaker 2: Dealers would yeah, because they love you. 533 00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:46,560 Speaker 5: You know, because if you want to look at like 534 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:50,880 Speaker 5: your basic stats of completion percentage and touchdowns and interceptions, 535 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:56,920 Speaker 5: there are some comparisons. But one Josh Allen's first season, 536 00:27:56,960 --> 00:28:00,720 Speaker 5: his passer rating was sixty seven point nine J McCarthy's 537 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 5: sixty one point seven, so comparable, but still Josh Allen 538 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,880 Speaker 5: was better if you look at QBR, which is adjusted 539 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,720 Speaker 5: quarterback rating, Josh Allen forty nine point eight, JJ McCarthy 540 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:16,640 Speaker 5: twenty six point seven. Josh Allen also ran for six 541 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 5: hundred and thirty one yards that season, so like he 542 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:21,639 Speaker 5: added a rushing element to it that JJ McCarthy is 543 00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 5: not adding. 544 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 2: You also combine this with. 545 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:29,320 Speaker 5: This is not JJ McCarthy's rookie season, it's his first 546 00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 5: year playing games, but he said two off seasons, he 547 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:35,760 Speaker 5: said shoot training camps, like learning the playbook should not 548 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,399 Speaker 5: have been as complicated for him as it was for 549 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 5: Josh Allen. 550 00:28:39,760 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 2: In year one. 551 00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 5: And then the other thing I would add is JJ 552 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 5: McCarthy took over a fourteen and three team, So yeah, 553 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:49,240 Speaker 5: what Josh Allen had to work with in year one 554 00:28:49,280 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 5: compared to what JJ McCarthy was supposed to have to 555 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 5: work with the year two is also quite different. 556 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,440 Speaker 2: And that would that's deserving I arrest my case. 557 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: Well, and not only I would have to, I would 558 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:02,000 Speaker 1: like to, you know, not that I would ever do 559 00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 1: this because this is to rubelike, but gimme game tape 560 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 1: of Josh Allen's first year. Was he overthrowing wide receivers 561 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: over over their head as if they were like, you know, 562 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:13,840 Speaker 1: ten feet over their head. 563 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:15,520 Speaker 2: And I mean I did get some accuracy issues. 564 00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, I I just don't know if they were that 565 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 1: bad because it was it's it's it's pretty like I say, 566 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,440 Speaker 1: it's it's depressing. It's it's it. 567 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,000 Speaker 5: Hasn't been a lot to know that team to help 568 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,360 Speaker 5: JJ McCarthy yesterday either, they had lots of drops they 569 00:29:31,400 --> 00:29:33,200 Speaker 5: did on top of the bath throws he was making, 570 00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 5: and he. 571 00:29:33,520 --> 00:29:36,400 Speaker 1: Dropped a couple. I think Hawkinson dropped one. Jefferson I 572 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:37,360 Speaker 1: think maybe had a drop. 573 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:38,480 Speaker 2: So yeah, Jones had one. 574 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was certainly no he was he wasn't getting 575 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: any help at all. 576 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, Vikings are one of the I think three worst 577 00:29:45,680 --> 00:29:46,920 Speaker 5: teams in the league in drops. 578 00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 2: Is that a is. 579 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 5: That a lack of focus on receivers or is that 580 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:57,240 Speaker 5: a the quarterback doesn't throw right like sometimes he's gunning 581 00:29:57,280 --> 00:29:58,600 Speaker 5: it in there when he doesn't need a gun it 582 00:29:58,640 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 5: in there. 583 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 1: Well, that's that could be part of it too, because 584 00:30:01,560 --> 00:30:05,400 Speaker 1: they did show one on on one replay of a 585 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,480 Speaker 1: drop pass that did look like you might have wanted 586 00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: to have a little bit more touch. It's sort of like, 587 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: I don't know the comparison I had, would you know me? 588 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:20,000 Speaker 1: I occasionally had to play golf, and it's the same thing. 589 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: Sometimes you have to hit those you know, really delicate 590 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 1: flop shots right. Other times you gotta get bumping runs 591 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:29,080 Speaker 1: around the green, and other times you even want to. 592 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: There are times where we want to. You might be 593 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: into a win one hundred and forty yards, you want 594 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,200 Speaker 1: to flight it in. You want to hit it low 595 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 1: so that the ball cuts through the wind. 596 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:44,120 Speaker 3: Here's koc we see not clean or complete enough of 597 00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 3: a performance. But I did think that, you know, I 598 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 3: told our team, you know, the one thing that jumped 599 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 3: out off the tape was the fights, the competes. I 600 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 3: thought we played physical. It was a physical football game, 601 00:30:56,920 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 3: just you know, didn't do enough to win the game, 602 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:05,520 Speaker 3: despite you know, having some some moments throughout where you know, defensively, 603 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:07,440 Speaker 3: doing some really good things early on to kind of 604 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:08,320 Speaker 3: keep us in the game. 605 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:10,640 Speaker 4: Special teams in the return. 606 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:14,520 Speaker 3: Units, you know, outside of a the one holding call, 607 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,880 Speaker 3: you know, played very physical and clean football. And then 608 00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,320 Speaker 3: you know, we have that one play they know it's 609 00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 3: a one play phase on the kickoff return. Once we 610 00:31:23,360 --> 00:31:26,000 Speaker 3: were able to finally get a lead in the game. 611 00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 3: For our second lead, we we only held for the 612 00:31:30,960 --> 00:31:33,400 Speaker 3: fifty seconds and they kicked the game winning field goals. 613 00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 3: So give them credit for winning the game. And we've 614 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 3: got to get back to work. I know our guys, Uh, 615 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 3: there's a there's there's a good energy in this building 616 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:46,400 Speaker 3: today of guys understanding we're just going to stay the 617 00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 3: course and continue to improve and uh, you know, attack 618 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 3: this thing knowing that we don't have a lot of time. 619 00:31:52,200 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 4: Left, but we do have what it takes to. 620 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,560 Speaker 3: Win football games in our in our locker room and 621 00:31:57,560 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 3: on our team, and that's that's what we're going to 622 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 3: put everything we have into doing against the Green Bay Packers. 623 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:06,200 Speaker 3: Matt's got a really good team this year, obviously very 624 00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 3: very talented, one of the more talented teams in football. 625 00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 3: They've added to that talent, and we've got to play 626 00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,840 Speaker 3: a much more complete game than we did yesterday and 627 00:32:16,840 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 3: and uh, you know, show up and and do the 628 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:21,960 Speaker 3: do the things. We improved a little bit from a 629 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:25,000 Speaker 3: pre snap and only had two penalties in the game, 630 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:28,600 Speaker 3: but but I still think there's a room for improvement there. Uh. 631 00:32:28,800 --> 00:32:31,600 Speaker 3: And then ultimately, you know, our formula of winning the 632 00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:35,600 Speaker 3: turnover battle is continues to be a very important thing 633 00:32:35,640 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 3: for our team. We've got to protect it and we've 634 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 3: got to try to force some and getting close on 635 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 3: a few defensively. I keep telling those guys they're gonna come. 636 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,920 Speaker 3: They're gonna come in bunches when they do, and it'll 637 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 3: have a very positive effect on our team when that happens. 638 00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: He is wearing women's underway a part of your challenge 639 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: certain mechanics during that. 640 00:32:56,200 --> 00:32:59,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought, you know, there there are there are 641 00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 3: some plays where you know, you know, he he is 642 00:33:02,920 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 3: he's making it hard on himself just by you know 643 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,800 Speaker 3: the nature of many of the things that that I 644 00:33:09,800 --> 00:33:12,040 Speaker 3: think that's probably the most frustrating part for him. It's, 645 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:15,080 Speaker 3: you know, it's talked about and repped and practiced at. 646 00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:17,480 Speaker 4: Length, and then in those moments, you know. 647 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,800 Speaker 3: In his fifth start, you know, it's just a variance 648 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,240 Speaker 3: to it is is causing you know, it's causing. 649 00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:25,120 Speaker 4: His job to be more difficult than it needs to be. 650 00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:30,280 Speaker 3: And he's he's wildly capable of making the throws that 651 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:31,480 Speaker 3: present themselves. 652 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:33,960 Speaker 4: There was some uh, there were some good throws in 653 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 4: there as well. 654 00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,720 Speaker 3: Some some throws there late that that even after what 655 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:42,480 Speaker 3: had been a frustrating day for him, there, you know, 656 00:33:42,560 --> 00:33:45,480 Speaker 3: his ability to still respond like he has a couple 657 00:33:45,520 --> 00:33:47,280 Speaker 3: of times now and move the team late to get 658 00:33:47,280 --> 00:33:50,240 Speaker 3: a lead. He's made of the right stuff. He's gonna 659 00:33:50,280 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 3: keep working at it. We're going to go back to 660 00:33:51,960 --> 00:33:56,080 Speaker 3: work and continue to find every avenue, every way to 661 00:33:56,160 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 3: try to help build the consistency, uh to to his 662 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:03,000 Speaker 3: to his mechanics, and then I just I firmly believe 663 00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:07,680 Speaker 3: the accuracy will come from that. It's it's been tried 664 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:11,360 Speaker 3: and true and tested with other players and guys that 665 00:34:11,400 --> 00:34:13,560 Speaker 3: have been on their journey before, and that's what we're 666 00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 3: going to keep working towards. And knowing he's got what 667 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,680 Speaker 3: it takes to do some of the things he's been 668 00:34:18,680 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 3: able to do lat in games and be at his 669 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:22,799 Speaker 3: best late in games, we just need to find a 670 00:34:22,800 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 3: way to find that consistency early to you know, make a. 671 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 4: Throw to Jordan on a play pass where. 672 00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:31,480 Speaker 3: He wins and there's an opportunity that we you know, 673 00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 3: we're hunting throughout the week, and he made the throw 674 00:34:33,719 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 3: in practice and and it just has to start the 675 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:38,600 Speaker 3: consistency of the work week. 676 00:34:38,640 --> 00:34:39,560 Speaker 4: And he's had good. 677 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 3: Weeks of practice, you know, we just continue to stack 678 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:45,960 Speaker 3: that and hopefully start seeing that show up in a 679 00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:50,680 Speaker 3: consistent way on Sundays. 680 00:34:47,840 --> 00:34:51,160 Speaker 2: And live all as he's going through. 681 00:34:51,320 --> 00:34:55,520 Speaker 7: To start all of that, you've concerned it all about 682 00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 7: the bools and negatively impacting him far as this confidence. 683 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 4: No, I mean, that's that's the that's that's. 684 00:35:02,840 --> 00:35:05,520 Speaker 3: Kind of what I think jumps out at you is 685 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:08,920 Speaker 3: after all of that and that that's included, that's the 686 00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:13,440 Speaker 3: the adversity of of what yesterday was leading into finding 687 00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 3: a way to put you know, fourteen points on the board. 688 00:35:16,080 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 3: I mean, we get the we get the long punt return, 689 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,040 Speaker 3: and then we get two really good runs off to 690 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:23,880 Speaker 3: score one touchdown and then he had to take us 691 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 3: eighty five yards for the other one, and and not 692 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,239 Speaker 3: not ideal circumstances when you've had a day like that. 693 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:33,760 Speaker 3: The mental toughness, the physical toughness of the player is 694 00:35:33,760 --> 00:35:34,920 Speaker 3: is uh, you. 695 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:35,760 Speaker 4: Know, clear and evident. 696 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:38,560 Speaker 3: I think to everybody you know, and and I think 697 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:42,799 Speaker 3: I understand, and I think JJ does the the frustration 698 00:35:43,200 --> 00:35:46,880 Speaker 3: with maybe seeing you know, Justin or Jordan or somebody 699 00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 3: open and and we don't we don't throw and catch 700 00:35:49,400 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 3: that there's there's a standard we have for ourselves that 701 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 3: that I hope our fans have for us. And you know, 702 00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 3: I think all that is you know, valid and and 703 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:01,200 Speaker 3: justified and and but at the same time, you know, 704 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:05,560 Speaker 3: we've got to consistently stay true to the most important things, 705 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,799 Speaker 3: which is for a young player, just you know, when 706 00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:10,600 Speaker 3: you when you look back at the tape, did you 707 00:36:11,160 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 3: take the right footwork, did you did you have your 708 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 3: eyes in the right spot, you know, was the was 709 00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 3: your posture and balance at the top. 710 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 4: You know, ideal? 711 00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 3: And then and then you get into some of the 712 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:25,480 Speaker 3: pocket movement things where uh, it's a young player you 713 00:36:25,520 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 3: tend to throughout games, you know they ebbs and flows 714 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:31,399 Speaker 3: and games and things. Those are the things that you're 715 00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:33,959 Speaker 3: trying to get more reps to have a feeling for 716 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,600 Speaker 3: how to handle that with the poise of your movement 717 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:40,600 Speaker 3: to continue to you know, find the ways to put 718 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:43,400 Speaker 3: the ball in play and pitch and catch and and 719 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 3: like I said, we're going to go back to work 720 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 3: on it, like we have consistently, and he's had some 721 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,040 Speaker 3: really good weeks of practice, and we'll continue to challenge, 722 00:36:52,120 --> 00:36:53,920 Speaker 3: you know, not only JJ but our whole team the 723 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:58,040 Speaker 3: prep and the practice. You know, I I do believe 724 00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,279 Speaker 3: starts to add up to positive performances, and there were 725 00:37:02,320 --> 00:37:04,800 Speaker 3: examples of that from some other guys at maybe less 726 00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 3: visible positions in the quarterback position. But it's just it's 727 00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 3: it's been something that we're going to continue to stay 728 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 3: the course and strive to see the improvement and and 729 00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 3: see it, you know, happen on a more consistent basis. 730 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 2: How is there through line that you're seeing. 731 00:37:22,880 --> 00:37:27,160 Speaker 3: With those Yeah, I think you know, looking at yesterday, 732 00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:29,879 Speaker 3: I know there was one where, you know, we kind 733 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,120 Speaker 3: of called it with the intent of maybe knowing that 734 00:37:33,120 --> 00:37:35,799 Speaker 3: that Montees sweat would be free off that edge if 735 00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:37,960 Speaker 3: he didn't peel with the back because nobody had him 736 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,040 Speaker 3: in man coverage, and if we could get that There's 737 00:37:40,120 --> 00:37:42,960 Speaker 3: there's so many times where you're watching and it's you're 738 00:37:43,040 --> 00:37:45,759 Speaker 3: you're finding the word if showing up in a lot 739 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:49,320 Speaker 3: of your response is if we can you know, convert 740 00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 3: that third down when when Justin wins on a pressure 741 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:55,360 Speaker 3: cut versus a linebacker if we can hit that early 742 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 3: down play pass you know, maybe to to uh you know, 743 00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,040 Speaker 3: kind of check that box of while we're running it, 744 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 3: get that explosive. Those are normally good formulas for us. 745 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:08,480 Speaker 3: If we can get that ball thrown over Montes on 746 00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:10,000 Speaker 3: that one, it's not a bad pass. 747 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 4: It's an Aaron Jones catch and run. 748 00:38:12,239 --> 00:38:14,719 Speaker 3: In that scenario, we ended up converting that drive for 749 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:18,160 Speaker 3: a touchdown, but with needing the fourth and five to 750 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:20,160 Speaker 3: to do so. So there's a lot of those where 751 00:38:21,040 --> 00:38:23,920 Speaker 3: I think last week was a product of, you know, 752 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:27,799 Speaker 3: a few downs where you know, some of the big 753 00:38:27,840 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 3: guys from Baltimore, you know, where that was their role 754 00:38:30,760 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 3: on the play was to block some shots. But then 755 00:38:32,560 --> 00:38:34,520 Speaker 3: there was also some times where I think we're moving 756 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:38,120 Speaker 3: pretty aggressively, you know, churning up, eating up some space 757 00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 3: in the friendliness of the pocket. That we've got to 758 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 3: continue to find that balance and that posture and then 759 00:38:44,320 --> 00:38:48,239 Speaker 3: maintain it without you know, chewing up too much grass. 760 00:38:48,680 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 4: Do you guys consider kicking out in Zona day? 761 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:56,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, the you know, Chicago's fifty seconds left, 762 00:38:56,080 --> 00:39:00,319 Speaker 3: they've got three timeouts, you know, obviously playing indoors your 763 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 3: the cover our kickoff coverage unit has been one of 764 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,799 Speaker 3: the you know, premiere units on our team all season long. 765 00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 3: So you know, in those moments, I think you've got 766 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 3: to trust your guys to to be at their best 767 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:14,200 Speaker 3: and and and you know, we got out of our 768 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:16,319 Speaker 3: couple young guys got out of their lanes on the 769 00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:18,839 Speaker 3: backside there. We knew they were a field return team 770 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 3: and there was evidence earlier in the game, you know, 771 00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 3: on the same location will hit it to the perfect 772 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,839 Speaker 3: spot and we just you know, I think there's an 773 00:39:28,880 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 3: element to it too, where guys want to win so bad, 774 00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 3: they want to win that down so bad for the 775 00:39:34,160 --> 00:39:37,360 Speaker 3: sake of the team that the discipline of what is 776 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:39,399 Speaker 3: my job on the play. I think there's a lot 777 00:39:39,440 --> 00:39:41,360 Speaker 3: of that going on on our team right now, because 778 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:44,880 Speaker 3: this team has fight. They're incredibly close knit group, and 779 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,719 Speaker 3: they want to go do the things that they think 780 00:39:48,760 --> 00:39:50,560 Speaker 3: in their in their minds and the moment is the 781 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:52,319 Speaker 3: best thing for the play by going to make the 782 00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:57,120 Speaker 3: play myself, but never at the detriment of the scheme. 783 00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:59,319 Speaker 3: And they all in the fit of how we see 784 00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 3: the all eleven playing out. And I think there's some 785 00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 3: of that going on throughout our team, And you know, 786 00:40:05,200 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 3: it's a better problem to have than then trying to 787 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,440 Speaker 3: find the fight and trying to find the guys that 788 00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 3: will play physical and hard for sixty minutes. We have 789 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:17,919 Speaker 3: that box checked in my opinion right now, consistently every 790 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,920 Speaker 3: single week. But it was a massive play, and looking 791 00:40:20,960 --> 00:40:23,479 Speaker 3: back on it, you'd love to know ahead of time 792 00:40:23,520 --> 00:40:27,080 Speaker 3: that unit that has done a phenomenal job all year for. 793 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 4: The most part covering kicks. 794 00:40:29,440 --> 00:40:31,960 Speaker 3: We wouldn't get it done in that moment, but I 795 00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:34,480 Speaker 3: also wouldn't necessarily want to send that message to that 796 00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:37,200 Speaker 3: group would probably earn the right to cover that kick. 797 00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 3: And when you're talking ten twelve, fifteen yard difference between 798 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:45,400 Speaker 3: the thirty five and what that could look like if 799 00:40:45,400 --> 00:40:48,400 Speaker 3: we get one of those premier coverage snaps out of 800 00:40:48,400 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 3: those guys that we've become accustomed to seeing, that could 801 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:53,800 Speaker 3: be the difference in that field goal even being attempted 802 00:40:53,880 --> 00:40:57,560 Speaker 3: or not. But clearly a massive, massive play with how 803 00:40:57,640 --> 00:40:59,759 Speaker 3: the game had gone up until that point to get 804 00:40:59,760 --> 00:41:02,439 Speaker 3: the or team points to to get the lead back. 805 00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:06,799 Speaker 3: You know, it was very frustrating for for I know 806 00:41:06,840 --> 00:41:07,960 Speaker 3: our guys. 807 00:41:08,000 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 2: Your conversation has been like this year with Justin obviously 808 00:41:11,360 --> 00:41:15,440 Speaker 2: him I had the production he's used to your conversation. 809 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:19,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the perfect I think the perfect example 810 00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,200 Speaker 3: of what makes Justin so special is that Jordan Mason 811 00:41:22,239 --> 00:41:25,880 Speaker 3: touchdown run. You know, if you if you hadn't had 812 00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 3: a chance to see that one, that's Justin Jefferson and 813 00:41:30,640 --> 00:41:34,240 Speaker 3: that is I mean, he push cracks, the safety blocks 814 00:41:34,320 --> 00:41:36,520 Speaker 3: him once refits the block, and he's the reason why 815 00:41:36,520 --> 00:41:38,319 Speaker 3: we score on the play. And he didn't catch it. 816 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 3: He didn't uh, he didn't walk the ball over the 817 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 3: goal a wind himself. But he's certainly in that moment, 818 00:41:44,040 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 3: no matter what the perception of his frustration might be, 819 00:41:49,480 --> 00:41:52,279 Speaker 3: that's the that that that's the player that I know 820 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:55,399 Speaker 3: we're getting on every snap, and this guy wants to win. 821 00:41:55,480 --> 00:41:58,680 Speaker 3: He's competitive, he's willing to do whatever it takes to 822 00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:01,799 Speaker 3: win game. And it's evident with what he's putting on 823 00:42:01,880 --> 00:42:06,520 Speaker 3: tape and in regards to my conversations with him, it's 824 00:42:06,520 --> 00:42:10,640 Speaker 3: more so Justin is our franchise player. He is you know, 825 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,920 Speaker 3: he is a guy that has assumed a such a 826 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 3: role in this organization that he understands the value of 827 00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:20,960 Speaker 3: his week, his work preparation throughout the week, what he 828 00:42:21,000 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 3: brings to our team from an energy standpoint, and and 829 00:42:24,719 --> 00:42:28,400 Speaker 3: and I'll never fault him for the competitive heat drive. 830 00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:29,919 Speaker 4: He has to help his team win. 831 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,160 Speaker 3: And uh, you know, I think that's that's the biggest 832 00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,960 Speaker 3: thing that comes out of it in my dialogue with him, 833 00:42:36,000 --> 00:42:38,560 Speaker 3: And we talk a lot, and you know, our relationship 834 00:42:38,600 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 3: as strong as ever because you know, I lean on 835 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:43,560 Speaker 3: him in many many ways, you know, in regards to 836 00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 3: helping to shape and guide our football team. You know, 837 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:49,440 Speaker 3: especially when you've got a young quarterback and he knows 838 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,320 Speaker 3: a lot of the factors that that can create throughout 839 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,520 Speaker 3: the ebbs and flows of the season. And and he's 840 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,279 Speaker 3: you know, he's been phenomenal. 841 00:42:57,520 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 7: Jump off that justin yesterday was saying that of staying 842 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:03,759 Speaker 7: the course that he's taken upon himself as if I 843 00:43:03,840 --> 00:43:05,680 Speaker 7: have to call up JJ and we have to do 844 00:43:05,719 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 7: things on our own and work on things. How valuable 845 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 7: for you as a coach to where the frustration can 846 00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:15,120 Speaker 7: kind of turn at this point of the season to 847 00:43:15,160 --> 00:43:18,840 Speaker 7: have JJ kind of you know spirit that way. 848 00:43:18,960 --> 00:43:21,400 Speaker 3: It's you know, I think a lot of a lot 849 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:24,840 Speaker 3: of folks and it's it's very typical for teams to 850 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,759 Speaker 3: kind of hit that fork in the road and go 851 00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:30,399 Speaker 3: right or left. But it's it's you know, it's it's 852 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:32,920 Speaker 3: hard to even imagine that with the type of guys 853 00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:36,640 Speaker 3: we have and the and the type of competitors we have, 854 00:43:36,760 --> 00:43:40,000 Speaker 3: and like I said, even through these you know, difficult 855 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:43,920 Speaker 3: circumstances where you very easily could see some of that 856 00:43:43,960 --> 00:43:46,440 Speaker 3: and have to really implore the guys, you know, as 857 00:43:46,520 --> 00:43:49,520 Speaker 3: as a coach and your coaching staff to to keep 858 00:43:49,560 --> 00:43:53,000 Speaker 3: attacking it. You know, what we're sensing and feeling in 859 00:43:53,080 --> 00:43:54,799 Speaker 3: the minute to minute day to day work is a 860 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 3: team that continues to push, strive and fight. And I 861 00:43:58,080 --> 00:44:01,879 Speaker 3: think it was evident again yesterday, even after some of 862 00:44:01,920 --> 00:44:04,640 Speaker 3: the you know, the fan reaction that was justified to 863 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 3: how we were maybe playing in the past game on offense, 864 00:44:08,160 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 3: we stayed the course and just kept going and tried 865 00:44:10,239 --> 00:44:11,840 Speaker 3: to figure out a way to win that game and 866 00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:14,359 Speaker 3: had to lead under a minute. You know, both times 867 00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:16,319 Speaker 3: we've lost to Chicago since I've been here, I think 868 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:19,520 Speaker 3: we've had the lead either under a minute or gotten 869 00:44:19,560 --> 00:44:21,360 Speaker 3: it back late in a game, and they've kicked a 870 00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,879 Speaker 3: field go to beat us. And both times we lost 871 00:44:23,880 --> 00:44:27,759 Speaker 3: the turnover battle by two. Both times we did things 872 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,520 Speaker 3: throughout the game that they gave them a yellow brick 873 00:44:30,600 --> 00:44:33,520 Speaker 3: road to win the game, and we still had a 874 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:35,880 Speaker 3: chance in the end and just didn't make you know, 875 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 3: that one complimentary play that would allow our defense to 876 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,760 Speaker 3: maybe get that same stop just further back in the field. 877 00:44:42,800 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 3: So but like I said, it's it's there's no seeking 878 00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,479 Speaker 3: comfort in saying that. I'm proud of our guys's fight 879 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:55,799 Speaker 3: and their ability to continue to play the way they 880 00:44:55,800 --> 00:44:59,320 Speaker 3: are from a physicality and an efforts standpoint, and it 881 00:44:59,600 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 3: becomes harder and harder as the results, you know, don't 882 00:45:03,280 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 3: come your way to consistently do that. But what this 883 00:45:06,040 --> 00:45:07,920 Speaker 3: team is made of I know we're going to continue 884 00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:08,880 Speaker 3: to do those things. 885 00:45:09,320 --> 00:45:10,279 Speaker 4: And now we've got to. 886 00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:13,480 Speaker 3: Just focus on the consistency factor of how do we 887 00:45:13,480 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 3: play football in a way that it gives us better 888 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:18,480 Speaker 3: chances to win games where it doesn't feel like it 889 00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:20,680 Speaker 3: is so difficult at times are it's such a heavy 890 00:45:20,719 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 3: lift to do so because it's hard enough to win 891 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,719 Speaker 3: in the NFL as it is, and uh, you know, 892 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:29,359 Speaker 3: these guys are these guys are made of the right stuff, 893 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:30,880 Speaker 3: and we're going to keep attacking it. And we're going 894 00:45:30,920 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 3: to keep attacking it in a way that hopefully makes 895 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:37,120 Speaker 3: you know, our fans proud of the way we're fighting, 896 00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 3: like heck to go. 897 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 4: Want to know every week time. 898 00:45:40,800 --> 00:45:43,399 Speaker 2: Taking accountability the way he did it after the game, 899 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:45,520 Speaker 2: Just how does that hit you and how. 900 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:48,320 Speaker 1: Did you then apply that and translate that to growth 901 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 1: from practice into a game. 902 00:45:50,080 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 4: Yeah? 903 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:52,720 Speaker 3: To me, you know, if that falls right in line 904 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,319 Speaker 3: with the intangibles of how he was able to get 905 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:56,799 Speaker 3: it done at the end of the game, I mean, 906 00:45:57,280 --> 00:45:59,279 Speaker 3: he's he's never going to turn it down. He's never 907 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 3: going to turn the work down mentally or physically. This 908 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:10,239 Speaker 3: is just to me, it's a consistency factor and discipline 909 00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 3: of some very very simple things that were working very 910 00:46:14,360 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 3: hard to make translate in those competitive moments where you 911 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,239 Speaker 3: get one opportunity a week and fifty four plays yesterday, 912 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:24,759 Speaker 3: how many of those were in the two minute mode? 913 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:26,600 Speaker 3: How many of those were in normal football? How many 914 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 3: of those were on third down? You know, you're just 915 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,480 Speaker 3: trying to get him to understand that every single snap, 916 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 3: his detail and his job is of the utmost important. 917 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 3: I thought he had some really great protection calls yesterday. 918 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:43,160 Speaker 3: It's a defense that had really really activated some problems 919 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:46,480 Speaker 3: for people free runners left and right, you know, in 920 00:46:46,560 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 3: some zone pressures, and he was able to navigate what 921 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:54,839 Speaker 3: was a pretty intricate protection plan and with precision, and that. 922 00:46:54,880 --> 00:46:55,720 Speaker 4: Was all pre snap. 923 00:46:56,719 --> 00:46:59,279 Speaker 3: Just like a lot of the things he's been able 924 00:46:59,320 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 3: to be prepared to doing his high capacity pre snap. 925 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:04,279 Speaker 3: We just have to find that when it comes to 926 00:47:04,320 --> 00:47:08,120 Speaker 3: the post snap, and sometimes it's not even reads and progressions, 927 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:11,440 Speaker 3: it's simply just the fundamental foundation that we need to 928 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,160 Speaker 3: start seeing the concrete kind of dry a little bit 929 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:15,080 Speaker 3: on the work that's put in. 930 00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:19,080 Speaker 2: Guys, turnovers will come. How come they haven't come? 931 00:47:19,840 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 4: You know what? 932 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 3: It's uh, you know, there's a couple examples yesterday of 933 00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,520 Speaker 3: the ball getting tipped and fall into the turf at 934 00:47:26,600 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 3: us Bank Stadium and we've got a guy maybe one 935 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:33,719 Speaker 3: or two steps away, you know there there wasn't you know. 936 00:47:33,760 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 3: I thought they for the most part, they didn't put 937 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,480 Speaker 3: the ball at harm's risk very often. I think Caleb 938 00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 3: put it on the ground maybe once late and was 939 00:47:42,440 --> 00:47:45,319 Speaker 3: able to secure it right back. And you just keep, 940 00:47:46,400 --> 00:47:48,320 Speaker 3: you know, Darren, you just keep you just keep playing 941 00:47:48,320 --> 00:47:50,879 Speaker 3: and you're doing the principles. I think we forced ten 942 00:47:50,960 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 3: negatives yesterday to try to put them behind the chains. 943 00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 3: I think we can still strive to have that, you 944 00:47:56,600 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 3: know effect on defense. He some third and third and 945 00:47:59,400 --> 00:48:02,360 Speaker 3: long conversion on some simple plays where maybe one or 946 00:48:02,360 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 3: two guys just simply does their job a little bit better. 947 00:48:04,600 --> 00:48:07,400 Speaker 3: We get off the field on those, and that adds 948 00:48:07,440 --> 00:48:09,960 Speaker 3: to the day that our defense was having from a 949 00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:13,200 Speaker 3: U you know, stopping stopping a you know, a pretty 950 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,960 Speaker 3: talented offense, and and and an offense that's been playing 951 00:48:16,360 --> 00:48:17,280 Speaker 3: playing pretty well. 952 00:48:17,320 --> 00:48:19,840 Speaker 4: So I think you just got to keep playing. You 953 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:20,640 Speaker 4: got to keep punching. 954 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,400 Speaker 3: You got to keep breaking, hammering, going at the football 955 00:48:23,440 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 3: when ball carriers have it getting population to the ball, 956 00:48:26,160 --> 00:48:28,759 Speaker 3: to see how many purple hats we can be have 957 00:48:28,960 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 3: arriving at the ball, to have those opportunities not only 958 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,279 Speaker 3: to punch it out, but then get it when it 959 00:48:33,360 --> 00:48:36,120 Speaker 3: ends up on the ground, and then catch the ones 960 00:48:36,200 --> 00:48:38,759 Speaker 3: they throw to us. If we do get one throwing 961 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:40,799 Speaker 3: our way, we got to make that play. And then 962 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 3: the tips and overthrows have to you know, the law 963 00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:47,320 Speaker 3: of averages should have even out on those at some point, 964 00:48:47,360 --> 00:48:49,520 Speaker 3: and we just got to keep staying the course. It's 965 00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:52,440 Speaker 3: much like the the mindset of our whole team right now. 966 00:48:52,480 --> 00:48:53,919 Speaker 4: You they will come. 967 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,080 Speaker 3: You just got to keep staying the course and you know, 968 00:48:57,160 --> 00:49:00,919 Speaker 3: reap the benefits of the harvest when when they come 969 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 3: by doing the right things along the way leading into it. 970 00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 4: What is that? 971 00:49:06,360 --> 00:49:06,480 Speaker 1: It? 972 00:49:09,160 --> 00:49:09,279 Speaker 3: So? 973 00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,960 Speaker 2: Now what do we do? Are we behind? Should we break? 974 00:49:12,800 --> 00:49:13,000 Speaker 5: Yeah? 975 00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:15,240 Speaker 2: We're way behind?
