I see us getting 9 00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:21,759 Speaker 4: better each and every week, and I like, I like 10 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:22,840 Speaker 4: the direction that we're going. 11 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:27,520 Speaker 5: Are you okay so on that and we can talk 12 00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,600 Speaker 5: specifically about this Packers game coming up, and I definitely 13 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 5: want to get your thoughts on the Raiders two. But 14 00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,000 Speaker 5: just for the second the stretcher run, here are four games. 15 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 5: Are you worried because the competition level is going to 16 00:00:36,680 --> 00:00:39,040 Speaker 5: go up here and these are gonna be more difficult games? 17 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 2: Or is there a sense for you of like, no, No, 18 00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:44,040 Speaker 2: I think this team is ready for those kinds of 19 00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,240 Speaker 2: games because they have played up to their opponents before 20 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 2: as well this season. 21 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,960 Speaker 1: You gotta remember it, and a lot of people. 22 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,320 Speaker 4: There are some exceptional teams in the NFL. You gotta remember. 23 00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,160 Speaker 4: We played Philly, who was want super. We played the Chiefs, 24 00:00:59,160 --> 00:01:02,000 Speaker 4: who's dominated us for the last ten years. The Charges 25 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,960 Speaker 4: have been a good football team, a playoff team for 26 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,679 Speaker 4: the last three to four years, so you're not playing 27 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 4: a bunch of slouches. The Colts had of resurgence like 28 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 4: no one has ever seen this season, So we're playing 29 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 4: tough competition. But these the games we played, prepare you 30 00:01:18,040 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 4: for the games we're about to play, because these next 31 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:25,280 Speaker 4: four are so important because everybody of the next four 32 00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 4: is trying to get in in the dance, and so therefore, 33 00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 4: with them trying to get in the dance, you're going 34 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 4: to get their best, and therefore you see where is 35 00:01:34,959 --> 00:01:37,400 Speaker 4: our best? And that's what I'm looking forward to seeing. 36 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 4: How do we prepare versus the Packers? How do we prepare? 37 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: You know I do. 38 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 4: We got to chievee, so we got the charges. How 39 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 4: do we how are we prepared for those games? Because 40 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,720 Speaker 4: those games can lead you into the playoffs with a 41 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 4: certain amount of confidence that's unheard of and momentum that's unmatched. 42 00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:54,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, I absolutely Broan. 43 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: I don't know if you saw the news today, but 44 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 2: you think about Layson the backup? 45 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: Absolutely not No. You saw Phil River out there and you're. 46 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 4: Like, yeah, what I can catch one from Philip Rivers? 47 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:08,359 Speaker 4: I gotta go there where I gotta go that far? Yeah, Hey, 48 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 4: I can't run a smoke route in a five yard 49 00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 4: hitch after that, this is the cloud of dust. 50 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 1: I'm not going too farther out to that. 51 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:14,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 52 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 3: I just it was just funny to be Phil Rivers 53 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:16,680 Speaker 3: at forty four. 54 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 2: You, I mean, it's not quite Steve de Berg at 55 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,880 Speaker 2: forty six coming back in nineteen ninety nine for the Falcons, 56 00:02:20,880 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 2: but but it's almost on that level. 57 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:29,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what, man, Then I'm glad because I say, 58 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 4: when you got guys. 59 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,000 Speaker 1: One thing about football is when you retire. 60 00:02:33,680 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 4: Usually there's no there's no there's no senior league, there's 61 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,240 Speaker 4: no uh, anybody who retiring football goes start playing pickball, right, 62 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 4: And these guys getting a chance to come back, that 63 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 4: means they physically, if you know, passing physicals and putting 64 00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:49,960 Speaker 4: themselves in decent shape and all this and that. And 65 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,760 Speaker 4: Tom Brady made an exception to the rule by the 66 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 4: way he performed after forty was phenomenal. And Philip Rivers 67 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,239 Speaker 4: has always been a dangerous quarterback. And I like I say, 68 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 4: he lost a lot of games to Philip Rivers and 69 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 4: freaking him and Gates and and if anybody can come 70 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,560 Speaker 4: back with the you know, with the wisdom and with 71 00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,960 Speaker 4: the offense they have now, I think he can do it. 72 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 2: The burg for his part, started four games, went two 73 00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:19,000 Speaker 2: and two through six touchdowns, seven interceptions. After being out 74 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,440 Speaker 2: of the league for five years at forty four, forty 75 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:21,959 Speaker 2: five years. 76 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,440 Speaker 4: Old, he's still better than some of the dudes that 77 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:24,120 Speaker 4: was in the league. 78 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,040 Speaker 2: I'm just saying, I guess one of those things, like 79 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: you know, Phil, like, it's not that far fetched. 80 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 3: It's happened before. 81 00:03:29,840 --> 00:03:33,240 Speaker 5: By the way, Paul Himbo with ESPN because he was asked. 82 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 5: I guess he said he was asked about it a lot. 83 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 5: Phil Rivers is now a grandfather. Okay, so he was 84 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 5: a grandfather this year. He's ten kids and now he 85 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 5: has is a great I can. 86 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: Only think of one NFL player. There's four NFL pass four. 87 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 5: One NFL players, okay, as I only think one NFL 88 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,280 Speaker 5: players that plays a grandfather, and that was far That 89 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:55,920 Speaker 5: was obvious, Yeah, Brett Farv.

I hope to be cleaning the game over. 105 00:04:30,800 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 3: You run five y. 106 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:35,559 Speaker 1: His route. 107 00:04:35,640 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 4: The slant round is a little busty because you gotta 108 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 4: burst in that hamstring in the hole. 109 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,599 Speaker 1: But your hits in the smoke route. I'm good after that. 110 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: It's a rat all right. 111 00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: So broadcast with the raiders. I know that that's important 112 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:48,679 Speaker 2: to you. It's important. 113 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 3: A lot of was there. 114 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 1: You were there there in the big toilet. 115 00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:55,080 Speaker 4: That's why I call it at one point nine seven 116 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,040 Speaker 4: death Star. You know it's a beautiful stadium. I will 117 00:04:59,040 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 4: say that it's a great stadium. I think I was 118 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:02,920 Speaker 4: so high up there was nobody behind me. I was 119 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 4: against the wall right before the roof comes over the top, 120 00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 4: but it was beautiful. 121 00:05:07,279 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 2: Man. 122 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:09,440 Speaker 4: I was up there by some of the ton of 123 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: Buncle fans and to see us play that way, it's 124 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,720 Speaker 4: usually a closer game. It was seven to seven there 125 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 4: four minute and then we kept making some plays and 126 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 4: I think overall the AFC games, the AFC West games 127 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 4: are going to be like that, and I'm just glad 128 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,920 Speaker 4: the guys pulled away enough to where we felt a 129 00:05:27,920 --> 00:05:29,520 Speaker 4: little easier going into the fourth quarter. 130 00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: You saw bo Nicks complete like eighty two percent of 131 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 3: his passes. 132 00:05:33,279 --> 00:05:33,599 Speaker 1: Yes. 133 00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 5: Now, now, Sean said that there were like seven shot 134 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,479 Speaker 5: plays that they had dialed up, but it just wasn't there. 135 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:41,040 Speaker 5: So tell me a little bit about from an offensive standpoint, 136 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:43,160 Speaker 5: Like you go into a week, you're always going to 137 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:44,960 Speaker 5: have some shot plays. But if they're just going to 138 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:46,920 Speaker 5: give you the underneath stuff, do you have much of 139 00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 5: an issue to just taking it? 140 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:50,279 Speaker 1: No, you gotta take it. And that's what this league 141 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: is about. 142 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 4: People don't realize if you get three and a half 143 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 4: yards of play, he'll score every time. 144 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: But everybody the highlights is what sells the tickets. 145 00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:00,280 Speaker 4: People want to see the bombs over the top, you 146 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 4: diving all over a guy you made five guys miss 147 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,880 Speaker 4: and spin around like Marvin Members's pump return. I see 148 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,800 Speaker 4: him bottled up and all of a sudden and I 149 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:10,839 Speaker 4: saw the left side, said man, he can get left, 150 00:06:10,960 --> 00:06:12,560 Speaker 4: but the guy was coming from the left, so he 151 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 4: stuck him in the middle and he somehow popped out 152 00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 4: the side and I'm like, oh, that's touch right there. 153 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 4: And then that's what you want to see. Those are 154 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,600 Speaker 4: what people paid the big money for those highlights. But 155 00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 4: a lot of times in the NFL and it can 156 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,280 Speaker 4: look like it's boring and this, this and. 157 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,480 Speaker 1: That, but you got to take what they give you. 158 00:06:28,520 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 4: They gave him under these routes, and the guys turn 159 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 4: turned up some plays. Harvey did a great job of catching, 160 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:39,839 Speaker 4: breaking some tackles, keeping drives alive, and that's what you 161 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 4: want to see. Like we said, this time of year, 162 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 4: you're preparing, you're preparing for. I don't want to just 163 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 4: assume that we was just automatically going to the playoffs, 164 00:06:48,200 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 4: but these next four games are crucial to you to solidify. 165 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 4: Like I said, one thing is how good can we be? 166 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 4: And we're hopefully we're ascending and our confidence level in 167 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 4: each other, and I think that's happening every single week. 168 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 3: It felt like one of those games. 169 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 5: I mean, and even by the way, our friend of 170 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 5: a mutual friend of ours, Tim Jenkins, said that it 171 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:12,640 Speaker 5: felt a bit like a preseason game because the Broncos 172 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 5: they just kind. 173 00:07:13,960 --> 00:07:14,840 Speaker 3: Of moved the ball like that. 174 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:18,120 Speaker 5: They weren't they weren't doing anything that was extravagance. There 175 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 5: wasn't anything about the offensive game plan. I mean, you're 176 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:21,640 Speaker 5: running hitches, you're running slants. 177 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 3: I mean, just like, there. 178 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:24,840 Speaker 5: Wasn't any of this razzle dazzle about the offense. It 179 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,119 Speaker 5: was just kind of we're going out there, we're running 180 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,080 Speaker 5: our routes. We're gonna take what's given to us, and 181 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:31,880 Speaker 5: we're gonna move down the field. Fourteen play drive, fourteen 182 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 5: play drive, nineteen play drive. Yes, those three drives by 183 00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 5: themselves took almost thirty minutes. 184 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm telling you, we had the ball I think 185 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 4: the whole entime, third quarter. I think it was the 186 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 4: third quarter. And because I'm sitting there, like I said, man, 187 00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 4: we just need to get to the fourth course and 188 00:07:45,600 --> 00:07:47,040 Speaker 4: we can run this clock. I'll get the game over. 189 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 4: Because I think we was up by ten at that time. 190 00:07:49,280 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 4: And next thing, you know, I look up. We're in 191 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,840 Speaker 4: the middle of the fourth quarter. We still had the ball. 192 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 4: I'm like, holy crap, I said, dude, they didn't get 193 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 4: the ball at all. I said, but that's that type 194 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 4: of offense is what you're gonna need down the stretch. 195 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:04,560 Speaker 4: You're gonna need that against the Packers. You keep that 196 00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:07,160 Speaker 4: offense on the bench. You need that against the Chiefs, 197 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 4: you need that against the Chargers. You keep their offices 198 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 4: on the bench. And when you can play, we call 199 00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 4: it four minute offense. But you can do the four 200 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 4: minute office whenever when you especially when you're ahead. Because remember, 201 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 4: the biggest ally you have is the clock. And for 202 00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 4: us to systematically, we're taking three plays to get the 203 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 4: first down, so what and sometimes you don't get those 204 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:31,160 Speaker 4: big chunk plays we want them. But they played good 205 00:08:31,240 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 4: enough defense on the back. 206 00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: End that they was gonna make us throw the ball 207 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: under knee. 208 00:08:35,679 --> 00:08:40,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just the I loved it was straightforward, vanilla. 209 00:08:40,679 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 2: We're just handling business, long, lengthy, sustained drives running the ball, 210 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:50,640 Speaker 2: and I'm like, this is yes, finally, thank you. You know, 211 00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 2: we don't need Bodex dropping back sixty times in a game. 212 00:08:53,840 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 3: We got to get RJ. Harvey and get some of 213 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 3: these other. 214 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: Guys, you know, these fifteen plus carry type games. Get 215 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 2: them in the groove, get that thing working. And they 216 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 2: did that. 217 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,880 Speaker 3: They came out handle business, did that and was off. 218 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, it did feel like to me, it felt like 219 00:09:08,240 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 4: one of your basic installs, you know what I'm saying. 220 00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 4: But that's the core of a good football team. You 221 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,760 Speaker 4: got to have something you can dial up. No matter 222 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 4: what they run, what kind of blitches they do, you're 223 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:21,040 Speaker 4: not checking at the line whatever we call we run. 224 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 4: And when you can do that and get to the 225 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,160 Speaker 4: get the ball to the right guy. I was just 226 00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 4: looking here at some of the different completions right, get 227 00:09:32,520 --> 00:09:40,440 Speaker 4: thirty one completions right, and I'm looking at one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, 228 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:46,120 Speaker 4: eleven guys called pass. That's amazing. That means I'm taking 229 00:09:46,160 --> 00:09:49,160 Speaker 4: what you give me. And teams will say, well, we 230 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:51,559 Speaker 4: can take this guy away, it doesn't matter because he's 231 00:09:51,640 --> 00:09:54,240 Speaker 4: going to the open guy. And that right there keeps 232 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:57,079 Speaker 4: us on schedule. We always say stay on schedule. Three 233 00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 4: and a half yards of play is on schedule. Sometimes 234 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 4: you can to get six to eight to ten. Our 235 00:10:01,640 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 4: first downs were good, so they kept us out of 236 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,600 Speaker 4: long third and longs right, he got sacked three times 237 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 4: for eight yards. That's way better than we've ever had before. 238 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:14,040 Speaker 4: They got a pretty good defensive line, one of pro 239 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 4: premier players on defensive vand and to to keep him 240 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,679 Speaker 4: at bay is awesome job by the guys up front. 241 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:22,120 Speaker 3: I'm one hundred percent with you. 242 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 2: Is it? 243 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:27,680 Speaker 5: Is it something that's replicable considering the opponent you had? 244 00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:29,719 Speaker 5: Like this is the Raiders defend. The Ringers defense is 245 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,599 Speaker 5: playing hard. I'm not trying to specifically knock them, but 246 00:10:32,600 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 5: it's a two in eleven team. Now the Packers are 247 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 5: different deal. 248 00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, So is this something that you could feasibly do 249 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:42,440 Speaker 2: again worst versus the Packers, the Jags, Chiefs, et cetera. 250 00:10:42,760 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: Here's the thing. 251 00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 4: All four of the teams we have left are playoff 252 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 4: teams or the Chiefs are trying to still get in. 253 00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 4: The Chargers, is they stay on track until we beat them? 254 00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,440 Speaker 4: They could get in. The Packers are going to be in, 255 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 4: and the Jags are what number three in the freaking league? 256 00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 1: And a see right now, if you're not playing, you're. 257 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 4: Playing playoff football starting this week, right, and so if 258 00:11:07,320 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 4: if last week was. 259 00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: Kind of a tune up. 260 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,679 Speaker 4: But last week was one of those moments where you 261 00:11:11,800 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 4: got to see what you have to work with. You 262 00:11:14,040 --> 00:11:17,599 Speaker 4: got a bunch of guys that have experience between we 263 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 4: got a lot of young guys making plays on offense, 264 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 4: especially our young guys on defense. Play solid and and 265 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 4: that's what you need. I just I really just take 266 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: my hat off to the coaching staff and the game 267 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: plan and just saying, hey, look, you guys, go out 268 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:34,199 Speaker 4: there and just play and do what you see.

I felt a really good energy from 271 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:42,080 Speaker 4: the team from Wade up in the nosebleedzer that I was. 272 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 1: I could still feel the energy and it felt good. 273 00:11:45,080 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 3: Did it feel like a home game? 274 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 1: It definitely was a home game. And I got I 275 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: got it. 276 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 4: I got a video because two of my buddies, Eric 277 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 4: vic Uh, I was texting them during the game and 278 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,400 Speaker 4: I sent him when Boat ran the quarterback draw for 279 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,760 Speaker 4: the touchdown and I pay in the stadium. 280 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 1: Man, it just would never happen in Oakland. 281 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 4: He saw all these jerseys, I said, I said, oh, 282 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,440 Speaker 4: by the way, I drink some of this dumb water. 283 00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 1: Because they had a raider emblem on it.

You know we were 288 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 4: struggling right now. I say, yeah, and I'm gonna take advantage. 289 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:24,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, because they would do the same for you. 290 00:12:24,520 --> 00:12:24,679 Speaker 5: Yeah. 291 00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 1: Man, they was kicking my tail for four years. They 292 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:28,719 Speaker 1: was kicking our tail. It was a game. 293 00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:30,760 Speaker 2: The Raiders ran the same play like twenty times in 294 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: a row or whatever. 295 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,760 Speaker 3: They weren't talking. They were leading off the gas at 296 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 3: that moment time, you know. 297 00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,840 Speaker 1: And you're not going to You're not supposed to. 298 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:40,679 Speaker 5: No, they absolutely were not. So we had Ron Smith 299 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:41,840 Speaker 5: and Studio with us five. 300 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:43,600 Speaker 2: Six six Night Zeros are Kwai Commas Spruit health text 301 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 2: line if you want to chime in to the conversation. Now, 302 00:12:46,400 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 2: let's let's go specifically with the Packers, and I say, 303 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: with this game, the Packers are playing really good football, right, 304 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 2: I mean they're both both sides of the ball. 305 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 3: What weres you the most about this matchup? 306 00:13:01,600 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: They have a they have a and they got one 307 00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:04,400 Speaker 1: of those. 308 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 4: One of those, of course, another one of those those 309 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 4: defensive ends, of those defenses that get after the quarterback. 310 00:13:10,559 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 4: And I think I really like the way bow handled 311 00:13:15,400 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 4: our offense. With a defense that gets after the quarterback. 312 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:21,160 Speaker 4: I really like how he handled it, how he he 313 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 4: stayed in the pocket. He didn't drift, not one time 314 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:26,600 Speaker 4: in the game. You know, he got out, He got 315 00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 4: the ball out of his hands fairly quickly. That's why 316 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 4: you take those short ones that everybody complains about. They 317 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 4: want you to throw the ball deep all the time, 318 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:37,480 Speaker 4: and we're gonna need that. We have to stay on schedule, 319 00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,760 Speaker 4: which means we have to stay on the football field, 320 00:13:40,040 --> 00:13:42,160 Speaker 4: and that's how you eliminate their offense. They have a 321 00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,880 Speaker 4: good uh their quarterbacks, one of those premier guys who's 322 00:13:44,960 --> 00:13:47,760 Speaker 4: up and coming in the league in a great run game. 323 00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:51,319 Speaker 4: Josh Jacobs loves running. I hate Josh Jacobs when he 324 00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 4: was when the when the Raiders drafted him, I was upset. 325 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:55,800 Speaker 4: I said, this kid is gonna be a problem for us, 326 00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 4: and I thought they would sign him back, and when 327 00:13:58,080 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 4: they didn't, I was happy. But now I'm not happy 328 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 4: game because he's coming back. But that kid runs hard. 329 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 4: He's a downhill runner. He pass blocks, excellent as well. 330 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 4: So and they went knocked off the Chicago team that 331 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:15,319 Speaker 4: was hot, so that that means they're they're battle tested, 332 00:14:15,679 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 4: and you know they're right there, nine three and one, 333 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 4: and but we got them at home. And I think 334 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:23,200 Speaker 4: one of the best things we can do take what 335 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:26,000 Speaker 4: they give us. That's how you eliminate the pass rush. 336 00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 4: You dump the ball off quick, we get three four 337 00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 4: five yards of God breaks the tackle, he ends up eleven. 338 00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 4: We stay on schedule, and we score points and that's 339 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,680 Speaker 4: what we eat up the clock. And that's how you 340 00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 4: win that kind of football. 341 00:14:38,720 --> 00:14:39,440 Speaker 3: How would you take it? 342 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,600 Speaker 2: If you're a player, you're eleven and two, they're nine 343 00:14:43,640 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 2: three and one, and you're a home underdog. 344 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 3: The Broncs are home dog to the Packers right now. 345 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 1: Set the line Vegas. 346 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, two and a half, two and a half. It's 347 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 3: not even like like a pick am rin Okay, okay. 348 00:14:56,280 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: I like it. 349 00:14:57,080 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: Yeah. And the reason I do because I've never trust me. 350 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: I'm in. 351 00:15:01,360 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 4: I did an event on Saturday. Of course, it's Raider 352 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,160 Speaker 4: fans everywhere, and I welcome them, no no problem. 353 00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:09,440 Speaker 1: I said. 354 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:10,760 Speaker 4: If it weren't for the Rais, I wouldn't have two 355 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 4: super Bowls. So I please state y'all, but everybody's like 356 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 4: literally dogging us out because of how we won our games. 357 00:15:18,680 --> 00:15:20,040 Speaker 4: You went in by three, you went. 358 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 1: In by this. 359 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 4: I said, listen to the keyword win is that I 360 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 4: said you forgot. Every team in the NFL is tough. 361 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:26,000 Speaker 3: This. 362 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 4: You know, what separates the good teams from the great teams, 363 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 4: to me is not the players, it's coaching. When you 364 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:36,840 Speaker 4: get better coaching, you find a way. We've won games 365 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:39,480 Speaker 4: in so many different ways this year. I think that's 366 00:15:39,520 --> 00:15:43,880 Speaker 4: the benefit. We can get into a smash mouth dogfight 367 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 4: with you. We can blow you out if you if 368 00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:49,200 Speaker 4: you give us a chance to hit those big plays 369 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 4: that he got dialed up. 370 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 1: If we get a chance to. 371 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 4: Get two or three of them in there, you're gonna 372 00:15:52,960 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 4: you can get blowed out real quick. But I just 373 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 4: really think that we'll battle tested in that regard. Our 374 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 4: defense is and the last four weeks especially, I think 375 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:05,240 Speaker 4: the play called and the things that the offense is 376 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,560 Speaker 4: doing has been very, very good for the type of 377 00:16:07,600 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 4: personnel that we have. 378 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,560 Speaker 3: Well, you can see in the third down number two. 379 00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 5: Do you realize over the last three weeks fifty percent 380 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:18,480 Speaker 5: conversion rate on third down. The Packers are the best 381 00:16:18,520 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 5: team in the league over the course of the season. 382 00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 5: There they've converted fifty percent. Fifty point six percent is 383 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:27,520 Speaker 5: the best mark, So you'd be over the last three weeks, 384 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 5: you'd be right up there in the top of the 385 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 5: league at third down. 386 00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 3: That's the thing, like we're talking about what you want 387 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 3: to see going forward. 388 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 5: Ben, that's got to be in the formula to continue 389 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:39,960 Speaker 5: to put yourself in advantageous third down situations. 390 00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and to go back to Rod and people 391 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,640 Speaker 2: complaining about, you know, how they're winning. You know, Lou 392 00:16:44,680 --> 00:16:45,840 Speaker 2: Holtz said it best. You don't have to be the 393 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 2: best team in the country, just the best team in 394 00:16:47,280 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 2: the stadium that day. And you do that enough, you're 395 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 2: going to be the best team in the country and 396 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 2: not have to worry about it. As far as the 397 00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 2: rest of it goes, I mean, I still thought we 398 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:56,640 Speaker 2: passed a little too much. Thirty eight attempts out of 399 00:16:56,680 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 2: bow against the Raiders. That still fell a little to tilty, 400 00:17:00,400 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 2: but we did get r J of the seventeen carries. 401 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,960 Speaker 2: Apprentice I think needs a little more work. I think 402 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:06,400 Speaker 2: he keeps showing every time you give them the ball. 403 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,199 Speaker 2: He keeps, he keeps doing stuff. I think you got 404 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 2: to feel a. 405 00:17:08,680 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 4: Little more pet Brian. They make plays at opportune moments. 406 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,400 Speaker 4: When you got your young guys man doing that, that's 407 00:17:15,720 --> 00:17:18,520 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, that's what That's what prepares you for 408 00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 4: the playoffs because now you don't have a problem dialing 409 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,800 Speaker 4: up anything because whoever's on the field know they have 410 00:17:24,880 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 4: a job to do. And I see a group, like 411 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 4: you said it best if we're playing at think about it. 412 00:17:31,080 --> 00:17:33,280 Speaker 4: All we complained about was first and second down. How 413 00:17:33,320 --> 00:17:35,359 Speaker 4: we're thirty long all the time, and we were we 414 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 4: led a league in punting until like you said, these 415 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 4: last three weeks, the play call has I think has 416 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 4: adapted to the personnel, and and the personnel has. 417 00:17:46,280 --> 00:17:48,760 Speaker 1: Adapted to the play call. It is a mix that's 418 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:49,679 Speaker 1: working right now. 419 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 4: And so I don't think you change it if we 420 00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 4: cause remember when he's dropping back thirty eight times, like 421 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 4: you're saying, you can drop back and throw it thirty 422 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:59,920 Speaker 4: eight times, but he scrambles very well, he's on the move, 423 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 4: he's throwing, he dumping it off. So those are just 424 00:18:03,240 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 4: as good as great run plays. If you're dumping it 425 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:08,760 Speaker 4: off of five on a pass Those are great run plays, 426 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:10,760 Speaker 4: and we were doing that on first down. First and 427 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:13,240 Speaker 4: is first and you catch one for six, it's second 428 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:15,280 Speaker 4: and four. You can do so many different things at 429 00:18:15,320 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 4: second and four that makes the defense down. Got a guess, 430 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 4: are they gonna try to go ahead and get the 431 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:20,240 Speaker 4: first down? 432 00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:20,399 Speaker 2: Now? 433 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:22,000 Speaker 4: Are they gonna try to go over the top? Are 434 00:18:22,040 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: they gonna hit intermediate routes? What are they gonna do? 435 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 2: Uh? 436 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,240 Speaker 4: This is when you dial up some of your deep 437 00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:31,640 Speaker 4: plays because now we're third and four, which we've obviously 438 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 4: been converted in at fifty percent. 439 00:18:32,960 --> 00:18:33,720 Speaker 1: Rate, which is awesome. 440 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 5: Well, and of course getting the ball out fast and 441 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 5: others Sometimes that some of the advanced analytic guys get 442 00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:42,760 Speaker 5: into this, like what Bonus only does these checkdown plays, 443 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 5: But then it's also neutralizing a pass rush like Micah 444 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,879 Speaker 5: Parsons is not going to eat against your offense if 445 00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:52,760 Speaker 5: the ball is not in Bonux's hands. 446 00:18:53,359 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 1: We just did that against Crosby. 447 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 4: Crosby comes off the edge fast, and just about everybody 448 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:02,879 Speaker 4: besides von Miller in his heyday, Nick Benito gets off 449 00:19:02,920 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 4: the ball extremely fast. Crosby's probably faster, which is crazy. 450 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:10,000 Speaker 4: When he gets that snap timed. They gonna get off 451 00:19:10,040 --> 00:19:12,719 Speaker 4: side at least once a game, both of them, because 452 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:15,120 Speaker 4: they're the elites that getting off the ball and learn 453 00:19:15,359 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 4: leaning and bend in that corner that if the quarterback 454 00:19:18,600 --> 00:19:20,760 Speaker 4: has this ball in the hand, those guys are they're 455 00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 4: chasing down runs on the backside all the time. So 456 00:19:24,400 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 4: Michael Passis is the same thing. The key is to 457 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 4: figure out where he's lined up and then we game 458 00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 4: plan from there. But you got when you got the 459 00:19:33,119 --> 00:19:36,679 Speaker 4: right personnel, because if you blitz us, we go wherever 460 00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:39,000 Speaker 4: the blitz come from. And our young guys are picking 461 00:19:39,040 --> 00:19:40,360 Speaker 4: that stuff up and making a great point. 462 00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 3: So it's the best addressing deal Lebroncos have played since Houston. 463 00:19:43,840 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 3: It's got to be out there. 464 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:45,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 465 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 2: And Shaun Gary and and Michael Park first rounder, Yeah 466 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:51,920 Speaker 2: they're I mean they're both really really good. 467 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:54,920 Speaker 3: But the Broncos offense tackles have been two of the 468 00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:55,640 Speaker 3: best in the league. 469 00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 4: They have and I want to take my hat off 470 00:19:58,040 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 4: to them. Like you said, apprentice is playing football as 471 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 4: a fullback. He catched the ball out of backfield, got 472 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 4: a couple of toes. I thought he was gonna get 473 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,480 Speaker 4: that touchdown on that on that that third is short 474 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 4: I thought he's going he broke it. But he wasn't 475 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 4: looking for the wiggle. 476 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:11,399 Speaker 1: He's just looking up. 477 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 4: So why did he just all of a sudden he's 478 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 4: in the secondary rolling right. But that's what you need, 479 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 4: all these guys getting those touches in key moments in 480 00:20:20,960 --> 00:20:22,200 Speaker 4: away football games. 481 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: Man, you can have his none dogs at home. That's fine, 482 00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:28,639 Speaker 1: that's fine, you're right. Yeah, I'm good with it. 483 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:29,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess you could use it. 484 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 485 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:33,040 Speaker 4: No, I if you go out there and play the 486 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 4: way we've played these last three weeks, like we're building onto. 487 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: Something, we fixing it. After the buy. 488 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 4: We have fixed some of the errors that we talked 489 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:44,640 Speaker 4: about this whole season. We were number one in penalties. 490 00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:47,159 Speaker 4: We cut those down. We were number one in punts, 491 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 4: we cut those down. Our third down conversion is going up. 492 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 4: That's called winning football. I don't care how ugly it 493 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 4: looks at what the score looks like. The goal is 494 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 4: to have one more point than their opponent. 495 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 3: Rod Smith and Studio with us, it's Colorado Gibs Day. 496 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:03,639 Speaker 2: Show your sport, your support for the arts, environment, education, 497 00:21:03,840 --> 00:21:06,720 Speaker 2: carrying cancer or a cause that matters to you.

Is that 504 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: a sign of a team that is struggling to get 505 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,800 Speaker 2: by teams? Or is that a sign of a team 506 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:34,000 Speaker 2: that is sort of battle tested and calloused? 507 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:41,480 Speaker 1: Hold on, Yeah, we've we've won so many different ways. 508 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:43,240 Speaker 1: Why is that a bad thing? 509 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:44,399 Speaker 4: You know what? 510 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,119 Speaker 3: But he keeps being painted as a bad thing. 511 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 4: Yes, painted is a bad thing. Well, if we lost 512 00:21:48,320 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 4: all those games, you know what everyone missing? We got 513 00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 4: a good football team. 514 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,200 Speaker 1: Our record don't indicate it, like Chiefs fans. 515 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,200 Speaker 5: Chiefs fans are saying that, well Arizona fans, but also 516 00:22:00,320 --> 00:22:02,000 Speaker 5: Chiefs fans. So like we have a great look at 517 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:03,640 Speaker 5: all the metrics, we're such a great football team. 518 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean you know what, metrics and w's is 519 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 4: what matters in the NFL. Man, you gotta win games. 520 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 4: You find a way, they always say, find a way 521 00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 4: to win the game. It's usually a player or two 522 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 4: down the stretch or a penalty, a big penalty or 523 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,760 Speaker 4: something like that, a punt return or something that can 524 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:22,240 Speaker 4: break a game over and give you that momentum. And 525 00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:25,240 Speaker 4: one thing I love about how we won our games, 526 00:22:26,560 --> 00:22:28,600 Speaker 4: not one guy on that team could ever think we're 527 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 4: out of a game. And see, you can't simulate that 528 00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 4: in practice. You can put all the little drills you 529 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:37,960 Speaker 4: want for two minute drill. You can do all the 530 00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 4: stuff in practice and script it out and cart it 531 00:22:42,200 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 4: up and tell this guy to run over here to 532 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 4: see what the quarterback's gonna do. 533 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:47,760 Speaker 1: Do it against an opponent. 534 00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:51,520 Speaker 4: In live action is the best form of practice you'll 535 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,000 Speaker 4: ever get is the game. And I think our group 536 00:22:54,080 --> 00:22:57,520 Speaker 4: has done an excellent job of all the scenarios. Backed 537 00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 4: up behind by twenty. You scored thirty points in a quarter. 538 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,639 Speaker 4: You put the ball that ends on six times in 539 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:09,840 Speaker 4: one quarter. It's never been done. It's like the craziest 540 00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:14,320 Speaker 4: thing ever. Last second field goals, last second missfield. 541 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:16,440 Speaker 1: Goals, all that stuff we won. 542 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 4: And for somebody to say that's a bad thing, you 543 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:22,119 Speaker 4: don't know football and you probably never won nothing in 544 00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 4: your life. 545 00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 3: I think they're prepared for every scenario. 546 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:24,480 Speaker 1: At this point. 547 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 3: You've had a giant comeback against the Giants. 548 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,080 Speaker 2: You've had the kick, you know, like you said, the field, 549 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:31,360 Speaker 2: the late field goals, all that kind of stuff. You've 550 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 2: You've found ways to come back about every situation, against 551 00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: every different type of defense, against every scenario here. If anything, 552 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,320 Speaker 2: I think its been great preparation for the Broncos for 553 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:41,639 Speaker 2: a stretch run and a playoff run. 554 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,440 Speaker 1: Wats this, dude. The two games we lost, we found 555 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 1: a way to lose them. 556 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, we had the charge as to be. Yeah, found 557 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:49,600 Speaker 3: a way to lose Colts too. 558 00:23:49,960 --> 00:23:52,280 Speaker 4: The Colts game, we had the game one, the penalty 559 00:23:52,359 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 4: at the end game another kick and five more yards 560 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:57,800 Speaker 4: and he makes it. So we found a way to 561 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,359 Speaker 4: lose those two, just as well as we found a 562 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,919 Speaker 4: way to win the ten that we eleven that we won. 563 00:24:03,080 --> 00:24:04,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, the Chargers are the only one that has me 564 00:24:04,920 --> 00:24:06,600 Speaker 2: with the eyebrow raise because obviously they're still in the 565 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:09,240 Speaker 2: hunt for the division and that has been Sean Payton's 566 00:24:09,240 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 2: bugaboo throughout his coaching career. He's only beat Jim Harball 567 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,280 Speaker 2: one time his entire career. It was a last second 568 00:24:14,320 --> 00:24:16,720 Speaker 2: field goal back when it was Niners versus the Saints 569 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,119 Speaker 2: and it has really been a struggle for him against Harball. 570 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 2: So that's the one that sort of has my eyebrow raise. 571 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 2: But otherwise I feel pretty confident down the stretch. Here. 572 00:24:25,280 --> 00:24:28,240 Speaker 4: Different team, man. I know everybody always go back, you 573 00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 4: go back so far into archives. It don't freaking matter. 574 00:24:31,160 --> 00:24:33,520 Speaker 1: It don't matter. The team he has now has nothing 575 00:24:33,560 --> 00:24:35,080 Speaker 1: to do with what happened when he was with the Saints. 576 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:35,880 Speaker 1: Not a thing. 577 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,800 Speaker 2: Well, I'm just saying, like overall, I'm just saying, but 578 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:41,080 Speaker 2: he's lost in other Chargers every time Marball's coaching two. 579 00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 4: Okay, And here's the thing, different times, different We lost 580 00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 4: this year. That's what we're more focused on this one 581 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 4: versus when he lost with the Saints. And this isn't 582 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 4: that our football team is not the same team we 583 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 4: played in the first eight games of the season. Matter 584 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:57,720 Speaker 4: of fact, the last four weeks have been a completely 585 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 4: different football team offense, defense, and special teams. Go look 586 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,440 Speaker 4: at the stats for all you guys who like to 587 00:25:04,520 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 4: check the metrics, Go check the metrics. In the last 588 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:11,119 Speaker 4: four weeks, it's almost like a brand new team at 589 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 4: the way we're winning the football games in the last 590 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 4: month versus the first well was that eight months, I 591 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:23,120 Speaker 4: mean eight games. The last four games have been way 592 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:26,280 Speaker 4: better because of the style that we're playing. I think 593 00:25:26,359 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 4: the style fits the players. The coaching calls fits the players, 594 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 4: the special team stuff fits the players. The defensive calls 595 00:25:34,880 --> 00:25:38,879 Speaker 4: with coach advance fits the players. It's not necessarily what 596 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,439 Speaker 4: fits the coaches, is what fits the players. And if 597 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:44,680 Speaker 4: you can do that, you can take a mediocre group, 598 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,399 Speaker 4: not that we have that, and go and do what 599 00:25:47,560 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 4: we're doing, which is win. 600 00:25:49,359 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 1: That's what matters. 601 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 5: Let me ask you something, and this is more of 602 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 5: a conversation that we'll get into here in a few 603 00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 5: weeks when they're entering the playoffs, which obviously is going 604 00:25:56,560 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 5: to happen at this point. I guess one thing we 605 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 5: talked about, playoff football is a little different. So what 606 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 5: about the team right now? No, I mean it's just 607 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 5: I mean, obviously a different level of intensity. They're gonna 608 00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 5: be playing teams that have got more experience in the playoffs, 609 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:18,399 Speaker 5: and the Broncos too. More than likely, right, a lot 610 00:26:18,440 --> 00:26:20,160 Speaker 5: of these teams, like the Bills, are going to probably 611 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 5: end up being a wild card team. 612 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:26,399 Speaker 2: The Ravens might somehow sneak in Chargers, the Steelers. I mean, 613 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 2: these are all teams that have played, that have been there, 614 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:29,680 Speaker 2: experienced it. 615 00:26:30,080 --> 00:26:33,200 Speaker 5: Texans, I mean Texans won last two years, even though 616 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:37,000 Speaker 5: they've lost dramatically afterwards, They've been playing in the postseason. 617 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,600 Speaker 5: So my point of it is is is there something 618 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,760 Speaker 5: about the Broncos lack of experience that could maybe hurt them? 619 00:26:44,080 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 3: No. 620 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 4: And the reason I say that we've been in intense 621 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,400 Speaker 4: battles every week, what battle tested, as we always say 622 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,840 Speaker 4: every week, and and and this was my answer when 623 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:57,960 Speaker 4: I used to get that question about always the playoffs, 624 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 4: so people got to step up, blah blah blah, let's 625 00:27:01,280 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 4: be s because how would you have room to step up? 626 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:09,120 Speaker 4: That means you've been slacking. And I used to tell 627 00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,639 Speaker 4: them all the time, I said, I can't give you 628 00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:13,720 Speaker 4: another gear. I have one gear. I played the same 629 00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 4: way from week one all the way through the playoffs 630 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 4: till the season is over. I don't know anything else. 631 00:27:19,440 --> 00:27:22,480 Speaker 4: And if you do anything other than that, it shouldn't 632 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:25,920 Speaker 4: be another gear. My only thing is is throughout this 633 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 4: seventeen weeks you figured out what works. We talked about 634 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:31,680 Speaker 4: this at the break. I said, one thing about coach 635 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:34,040 Speaker 4: is he's an analytical guy. He's gonna go in there, 636 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 4: he's gonna figure out those five to seven running plays 637 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:39,159 Speaker 4: that were right after that is when Bo had the 638 00:27:39,240 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 4: conversation that we ran the same play three times up 639 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:42,320 Speaker 4: through the three different guys. 640 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 1: That's analytics, that's me developing. 641 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 4: We figuring out the chemistry that works for this group 642 00:27:49,359 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 4: versus the team I had in the first of the 643 00:27:52,640 --> 00:27:55,240 Speaker 4: year and the team I have now. Even though they 644 00:27:55,359 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 4: look like the same personnel, they're playing at a different 645 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:01,879 Speaker 4: because I'm putting guys in position for them with their 646 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 4: skill set to excel. That's what he's doing and it's 647 00:28:06,400 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 4: it's and it's obvious that he's doing it. That's why 648 00:28:08,760 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 4: I said these last four weeks there there, if you 649 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,000 Speaker 4: want to go deep in the playoffs and to the 650 00:28:14,080 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 4: chance to win the Super Bowl, you gotta come out 651 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:18,800 Speaker 4: of this these next four at. 652 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:21,800 Speaker 1: Least three and one. And that's that's if you had 653 00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 1: to put a number on it. 654 00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:25,159 Speaker 4: I believe it's gonna be four and oh, because I 655 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 4: think we've done what we need to do to prepare 656 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 4: for every last one of these teams. Because if you 657 00:28:29,320 --> 00:28:31,359 Speaker 4: play any one of these teams, is this not a 658 00:28:31,400 --> 00:28:34,080 Speaker 4: playoff game? If you play the Packers again, it's in 659 00:28:34,119 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 4: the super Bowl. If you gonna probably see the Jags 660 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:40,280 Speaker 4: in this in the playoffs. If you see the Jackson 661 00:28:40,280 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 4: in the playoffs, it's playing as the championship game. If 662 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 4: you see the Chargers, it's gonna be in the playoffs 663 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 4: after this game. 664 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:47,280 Speaker 1: If you see the. 665 00:28:47,320 --> 00:28:50,320 Speaker 4: Chiefs that wild card, they won a game in the playoffs. 666 00:28:50,360 --> 00:28:52,760 Speaker 4: You see what I'm saying to all these the playoff games. 667 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,560 Speaker 4: And my thing is, if you're not ready now, you'll 668 00:28:55,640 --> 00:28:56,280 Speaker 4: never be ready. 669 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:57,080 Speaker 1: Yeah. 670 00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:58,120 Speaker 3: I think it's with this team. 671 00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,840 Speaker 2: You're just kind of hoping that they're too young to know, 672 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:01,560 Speaker 2: you know, to do all that kind of you know, 673 00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:03,800 Speaker 2: this is I know they don't have the experience, but 674 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 2: they're also a. 675 00:29:04,360 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: Young football team. 676 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 2: You're talking a little about the run game in the 677 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 2: break Archie Harvey man he had an unbelievable game, absolutely 678 00:29:13,560 --> 00:29:15,480 Speaker 2: the grown up game from him, because he'd been struggling 679 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 2: a little with the vision in the first couple of games, 680 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:18,880 Speaker 2: but he was in the zone in that one. 681 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,040 Speaker 4: But think about it, man, it takes time. This stuff 682 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 4: is not easy. People want you to come in and 683 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 4: just shock the world and do what you did in college. 684 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,320 Speaker 1: And it's not his thing. Everybody's like you when you 685 00:29:30,400 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 1: were in college. 686 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 3: Everybody or worse or selling the shirts. 687 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,200 Speaker 4: You got some horses on the other side of the 688 00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 4: ball in the NFL, on every football team. You might 689 00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:43,000 Speaker 4: not know their names, but those dudes went through some 690 00:29:43,120 --> 00:29:44,920 Speaker 4: stuff to get to where they are and then you 691 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:46,840 Speaker 4: know what they come to do. Take your head off. 692 00:29:47,200 --> 00:29:49,680 Speaker 4: And I love how the young man has stepped up. 693 00:29:49,960 --> 00:29:53,600 Speaker 4: He steps up in the past game. I see him chipping, chipping, 694 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 4: run defensive ends. I see him picking up blizters. He 695 00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 4: picking up blitters on the backside, giving his quarterback time 696 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 4: and both doesn't even flinch. He's a young guy, he 697 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,080 Speaker 4: doesn't even flinch because he trust this guy. That trust, man, 698 00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 4: I'm telling you, goes a long way down the stretch 699 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 4: like where we are right now. And we're not gonna 700 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:13,680 Speaker 4: talk about what we're talking about off the air for 701 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 4: the record in these next four game. 702 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:16,520 Speaker 1: But you heard what I. 703 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,120 Speaker 4: Said about this game, said about this game, and I 704 00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 4: believe that because of what we've done, gone through and 705 00:30:23,720 --> 00:30:26,560 Speaker 4: the trust that the coach has earned, the guys have 706 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 4: earned the trust, cut the coach's trust. He's putting them 707 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 4: in first and second down down in this is doesn't 708 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 4: matter who's in the game. He's calling the game, playing 709 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 4: regardless of who's out there. I thought Franklin was hurt 710 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 4: for a minute because he was in the game. Next 711 00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 4: thing you know, the ball's going to his spot. I 712 00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:46,440 Speaker 4: thought calling something happened to court Carling went in, the 713 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 4: ball went to his spot. Next, ain't no caller come back, 714 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:51,960 Speaker 4: make play. Franklin makes you play. I'm like, dude, this 715 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 4: is a good football team, and I really look. 716 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:54,480 Speaker 1: What I see. 717 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 2: The other rotations have been working better. Right early in 718 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:01,040 Speaker 2: the sea he'll sit down the stretch many physically. Early 719 00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 2: in the season, I think that it felt like there 720 00:31:03,120 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 2: was a little confused with the rotations. 721 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 3: But this felt a little smoother. And maybe it is 722 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 3: the Raiders. I don't know, but it doesn't feel like that. 723 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 5: It feels like over the last three weeks they are 724 00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 5: finding their form, especially when the rotations have been going. 725 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:17,080 Speaker 4: Think about it. We used to call the plays because 726 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 4: we knew who was in the game. We would see 727 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 4: certain formations, certain packages come in the game and we're like, okay, 728 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:24,720 Speaker 4: this is why run or a bubble screen, and you 729 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:26,479 Speaker 4: know what, eighty percent of the time we would be right. 730 00:31:26,560 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 1: That's not good for guys who don't study them. 731 00:31:28,960 --> 00:31:33,240 Speaker 4: Right, we had, we knew our personnels, and we knew 732 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:35,560 Speaker 4: the type of plays that we wanted to run. And 733 00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:38,400 Speaker 4: ever since the break when he got in there and 734 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 4: got in the lab and got to study and some stuff, 735 00:31:42,040 --> 00:31:44,080 Speaker 4: and he earned the trust of the guys in practice 736 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,360 Speaker 4: and in these games they stepped up and made plays. 737 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,440 Speaker 4: He said, I don't care who's in there called this. 738 00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 4: I don't need calling in here specifically for display. I 739 00:31:52,920 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 4: don't need Franklin specifically for this play. I can call 740 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,720 Speaker 4: it on any one of them and they've delivered. So 741 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:01,280 Speaker 4: I take my hat off to all those guys defensively 742 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 4: as well. I saw Moss was out a few plays. 743 00:32:03,760 --> 00:32:06,040 Speaker 4: I thought Mass was hurt. But you know what, the 744 00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:09,680 Speaker 4: guy the next man up played extremely well. 745 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: Rod. 746 00:32:10,560 --> 00:32:13,000 Speaker 5: You're a rockstar man.
