Speaker 3: Dave not a bad way to hit the mini by

11
00:00:32,320 --> 00:00:34,440
Speaker 3: when you go in with the victory. I woke up

12
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,360
Speaker 3: Sunday morning and I had that thought, Wow, I kind

13
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 3: of like waking up on Sundays. Withere, the Bengals have

14
00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 3: already won. There's nothing to worry about. And it was

15
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:43,680
Speaker 3: a game that had a little bit of this and

16
00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,400
Speaker 3: a little bit of that and a one they desperately needed.

17
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,280
Speaker 3: Nice to get in the win column for the first

18
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 3: time after a four game losing streak.

19
00:00:50,440 --> 00:00:52,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's no doubt, Lance, I mean, a four game

20
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 4: losing streak wears on you, you know, don't I don't

21
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 4: care who you are, what level of football you're playing,

22
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:01,520
Speaker 4: what sport you're playing. You know, I mean baseball big

23
00:01:01,560 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 4: one hundred and sixty two. You know, four games is nothing.

24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 4: It's one series, maybe not even that sometimes, but in football,

25
00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,000
Speaker 4: I mean it's big. You know, you only get in

26
00:01:11,120 --> 00:01:13,320
Speaker 4: certain number of games, seventeen games. Now, they've got it

27
00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 4: at in the regular season to go out and perform

28
00:01:16,280 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 4: and show what you got as a football team and

29
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 4: as an individual player, and you don't want to waste

30
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 4: any of them. And they felt like they had wasted

31
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:26,880
Speaker 4: a month or so of their season. But then in

32
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 4: comes Joe Flacco and he comes, you know, he answers

33
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,280
Speaker 4: the bell they put out the emergency call, you know,

34
00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 4: and Joe Flacco picked up the phone and the other

35
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 4: end and said, yeah, I'm all in, I'm ready.

36
00:01:40,800 --> 00:01:41,200
Speaker 5: To do this.

37
00:01:41,400 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 4: And you know, he knew all about the Cincinnati Bengals.

38
00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 4: He played against him many times. He had a good

39
00:01:47,920 --> 00:01:50,920
Speaker 4: idea what Zach Taylor was about, and what kind of

40
00:01:50,920 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 4: offense the Bengals had, and what kind of offensive weapons.

41
00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:57,480
Speaker 4: More importantly, the Bengals had, particularly ones to throw to,

42
00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 4: and he has a mirriad of those. There's no doubt

43
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 4: I mean Jamar Chase is the best in football. Another

44
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 4: sixteen catchers hundred and sixty one yards in a touchdown.

45
00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:11,680
Speaker 4: Te Higgins lit it up. Chase Brown rush for over

46
00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,279
Speaker 4: one hundred yards. Eleven carries hundred and eight What kidding.

47
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,519
Speaker 4: This isn't little league football, man, This isn't Pop Warner.

48
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 4: This is the NFL. Eleven carries one hundred and eight yards.

49
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 4: So now you know you have guys that in the

50
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 4: offensive line. Take about Dylan Fairchild, young guard take a

51
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 4: bow man, ran the ball well, ran behind him.

52
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 6: Some.

53
00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,960
Speaker 4: They ran in the interior between the guards and Senator

54
00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:39,639
Speaker 4: Ted Carriss multiple times. Riisener did a good job over

55
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 4: there at right guard. And they performed well. They really

56
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 4: did offensively. I think every single position group, every guy

57
00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 4: in every single position group can take a bow. I

58
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 4: thought their performance was much better than normal, much better

59
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:57,040
Speaker 4: than average, I should say. Defensively, it was up and down.

60
00:02:57,120 --> 00:03:00,280
Speaker 4: You know, I guess inconsistent might be a fear way

61
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 4: to put it. They showed up, you know, they were

62
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 4: ready to play. It wasn't like that when they had issues.

63
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,959
Speaker 4: It wasn't due to lack of effort or lack of

64
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:13,519
Speaker 4: emotion or you know, I don't think it was preparational,

65
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:15,320
Speaker 4: though sometimes it looked like it out there. You know,

66
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 4: sometimes guys were i mean really open, big time open.

67
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 4: That should never happen at this level in the National

68
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 4: Football League, and Al Golden has to concern himself with that,

69
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 4: and I'm sure he didn't like it one bit.

70
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 3: David feels like this is almost the beginning of like

71
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,959
Speaker 3: a third season within a season. You went through the

72
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 3: first phase with Joe and his injury and all the

73
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 3: emotions that came with it, and then Jake Browning in

74
00:03:39,440 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 3: the thought that okay, Jake can carry him for a while,

75
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 3: then his struggles, then the transition out to a third season,

76
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 3: which feels like there's a new juice and energy of

77
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 3: looking around going all right, for all we've been through,

78
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,560
Speaker 3: if you look at the division, if you look at

79
00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: the AFC, we're still in this thing, and we got

80
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 3: a quarterback we can ride right now for a while.

81
00:03:58,920 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 5: I agree.

82
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 4: I mean, I think Joe Flacco Lance has been you know,

83
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:08,440
Speaker 4: a huge shot of confidence in everybody's arm. You know, players,

84
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 4: head coach, coordinators, position coaches, everybody. Now they feel like, Okay,

85
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 4: we got a guy that's done this before we got

86
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:19,240
Speaker 4: a guy that understands what it takes to do this.

87
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:22,680
Speaker 4: And by doing this, I mean, you know, have a

88
00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 4: winning record well above five hundred. Maybe it gets you

89
00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 4: in as a wild card, maybe you win the division.

90
00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 4: But the big, you know, the big prize, the big

91
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,120
Speaker 4: banana course, is the super Bowl. If you can win

92
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,880
Speaker 4: a playoff game and go to the division, win a

93
00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 4: division playoff game, go to the conference championship game, and

94
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 4: then go to the super Bowl, that would be huge.

95
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:45,279
Speaker 4: I mean, this team has been there three times, hasn't

96
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 4: won it yet. It would be ironic. I think if

97
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:53,880
Speaker 4: Joe Flacco comes to Cincinnati and uh, in less than

98
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,680
Speaker 4: a week's time, you know, puts up a big victory.

99
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,040
Speaker 4: I mean, this thing was huge. I mean you can't

100
00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 4: overstate how big this victory was. Puts a big victory

101
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,560
Speaker 4: victory against arch rival Pittsburgh Steelers. AFC North Division title

102
00:05:08,839 --> 00:05:11,120
Speaker 4: basically in the works on the way.

103
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:13,599
Speaker 5: This game.

104
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,719
Speaker 4: They'll look back on this game and it'll be like

105
00:05:15,720 --> 00:05:17,880
Speaker 4: a watershed game, you know. I think it'll be like

106
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 4: if in fact, they have the season they're hoping to

107
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 4: have and they finish well above five hundred and do

108
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:28,440
Speaker 4: the things I already talked about this game will be Yep,

109
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,719
Speaker 4: that Pittsburgh game. That was the one. I mean, shoot,

110
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 4: we signed Joe Flacco in less than a week's time.

111
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 4: He's out there, you know, running the whole offense and

112
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,640
Speaker 4: understanding the complexities of that offense. And I think what

113
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,560
Speaker 4: they did do I think the coaches actually take about

114
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:48,200
Speaker 4: I think they made a fairly complex offense simple. You know,

115
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,200
Speaker 4: they there's simple components in it, and I think they

116
00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:52,479
Speaker 4: emphasize those big.

117
00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 3: Time stadium wise, places packed, white out, looked great on TV,

118
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,160
Speaker 3: looked great in person that looked around and thought, not

119
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:04,200
Speaker 3: many Steelers here.

120
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 2: I kind of like that. It was a Bengal crowd.

121
00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,320
Speaker 3: It was loud and it it enjoyed that on Monday

122
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:11,880
Speaker 3: or on Thursday night, it sure did.

123
00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 4: I mean I thought that crowd was a huge factor

124
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:17,120
Speaker 4: in the game. I mean they showed up loud and proud.

125
00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:19,919
Speaker 4: I mean they were ready to celebrate, and you know

126
00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:24,039
Speaker 4: they I think they were curious as to this quarterback

127
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,919
Speaker 4: Joe Flackhamam. And we know we know about him. We

128
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 4: played against him and we've had mixed success. He's had

129
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 4: more success than we have. Uh, let's see what he

130
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:34,359
Speaker 4: can do for us against the UH, the hated but

131
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 4: respected Pittsburgh Steelers and Mike Tomlin.

132
00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:37,960
Speaker 7: UH.

133
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,320
Speaker 4: And he went out there and UH and did his thing.

134
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:42,880
Speaker 4: I'll tell you he threw the ball exceedingly well I

135
00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 4: thought he did. The ball came out of his hand

136
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 4: very quickly. He made unbelievably quick reads. He was sure

137
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:51,479
Speaker 4: of his reads, very confident in what he was looking at,

138
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 4: and confident in himself, and got the ball out of

139
00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:59,040
Speaker 4: his hand quickly with velocity RPMs on that bad boy,

140
00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 4: very active down the field twenty five thirty yards, you know,

141
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:06,039
Speaker 4: hitting the receiver's left shoulder when he had to, right

142
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 4: hip when he had to, whatever the case may be.

143
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 4: He was putting it in very very small spots.

144
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:12,160
Speaker 2: He was.

145
00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 4: He was pinpointing the ball down the football field with

146
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 4: the accuracy that he has. He's a very talented thrower

147
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 4: passer of the football. There is no question about that.

148
00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: A couple of forty something quarterbacks doing their thing on

149
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 3: a national stage, and even down to the final play

150
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 3: when Rogers rolls out. Everything to me went like slow motion,

151
00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,680
Speaker 3: like I've seen Rogers do this before, and this Hail

152
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,320
Speaker 3: Murray has worked before. And as the ball is going

153
00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:39,920
Speaker 3: through the air. Everything just kind of slow down in

154
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 3: your watch. Somebody bat that baby down and they did

155
00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:47,239
Speaker 3: and they they hang on and win again.

156
00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,200
Speaker 5: So yeah, it was like super slow mo. You know that.

157
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,400
Speaker 4: It's like, oh my god, is he going to do

158
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 4: it again? Because he's done it. He's done it before,

159
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 4: that's for sure. Like you've said, I mean, he's he's

160
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,840
Speaker 4: unkenny how he can get that that done? But he

161
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,440
Speaker 4: played He played a really solid game too. I mean,

162
00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:11,720
Speaker 4: like you said, two guys forty years old, forty years

163
00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 4: old or more, putting up the numbers that they did,

164
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,400
Speaker 4: the way they did it, how they played the game,

165
00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:21,160
Speaker 4: how they led, how they led their teammates. And you know,

166
00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:24,600
Speaker 4: both of them take a bow, but Joe flaccall can

167
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 4: take a bigger bow.

168
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 3: You you touched on it, and let's touch on in

169
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:32,199
Speaker 3: the next segment. Some credit for Zach and Dan Pitcher

170
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:36,679
Speaker 3: and Justin Roscotti getting Joe Flacco up to speed, getting

171
00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,200
Speaker 3: him ready, figuring out what he likes, and also Duke

172
00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:42,240
Speaker 3: Tobin who winds up flipping a fifth round pick for

173
00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 3: a sixth round pick and brings in Joe Flacco. And look,

174
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 3: there's no secret, Mike Tomlin made his thoughts very clear

175
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,559
Speaker 3: last week, like what are the Browns doing?

176
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:50,800
Speaker 4: Why?

177
00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,280
Speaker 3: Why are the Cleveland Browns giving the Beggals Joe Flacco?

178
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,280
Speaker 3: And when we saw why, he was a little bit

179
00:08:55,320 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 3: worried about that. Let's talk about some credit due as

180
00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:01,319
Speaker 3: we continue. He's Dave Lappaman, Glance Cas Bengals on and

181

Speaker 3: hundred WLW Lions but Cantleister Dave Blapham, working our way

184
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,719
Speaker 3: through three big hours of all things Bengals conversation. We'll

185
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:17,440
Speaker 3: get into the Jets this weekend's opponent a little bit

186
00:09:17,480 --> 00:09:20,040
Speaker 3: later on in the show as well. Dave, you touched

187
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:22,400
Speaker 3: on credit in the first segment, and let's expand that.

188
00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 3: Let's first go big picture Duke Tobin. And there's a

189
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 3: great piece of Monday Morning Quarterback by Albert Breer of

190
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,720
Speaker 3: how the Bengals after the Detroit loss had started looking

191
00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,400
Speaker 3: at quarterbacks and initially had a list of ten, and

192
00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 3: they narrowed it down and they were looking for somebody

193
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,880
Speaker 3: who was going to be a quick study, who could

194
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,840
Speaker 3: work in their offense. Who knew the division, and Duke

195
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:43,120
Speaker 3: Tobin pulls the trigger and Trey It flips a fifth

196
00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 3: round pick for a sixth round pick to get Joe Flacco.

197
00:09:45,880 --> 00:09:48,560
Speaker 3: It looks like a genius move right now, but Flacco,

198
00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,480
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't know that they're among anybody else.

199
00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:54,960
Speaker 3: They would have considered anybody who could have as smoothly

200
00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 3: slid in on a short week when he arrived and

201
00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:00,599
Speaker 3: then done the quick turnaround to the DIVISI rival and

202
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:02,480
Speaker 3: the Steelers and get it downe like Joe Flacco got

203
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:02,719
Speaker 3: it done.

204
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:04,520
Speaker 4: I agree with you. I mean, I think I think

205
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:09,840
Speaker 4: Joe Flacco. Obviously he's been around, he's he's got a

206
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,960
Speaker 4: bunch of years uh service in the National Football League,

207
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,320
Speaker 4: and he's played very very good football. I mean the guy,

208
00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 4: uh you know, m v P type football and in

209
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,440
Speaker 4: some instances, so he's a he's a guy that that

210
00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 4: understands the game of football and he can assimilate offenses quickly.

211
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 4: And that's what they were looking for. Duke Tobin and

212
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:33,600
Speaker 4: his scouting department, they you know, put a laundry list

213
00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:37,640
Speaker 4: of requirements together and obviously that was first and foremost.

214
00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:40,680
Speaker 4: We need somebody to get up to speed. Quickly because

215
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:43,680
Speaker 4: we want somebody now, uh, Jake Browning, we gave the

216
00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:46,760
Speaker 4: opportunity to and then he he kind of you know,

217
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 4: did not perform to the level of expectation and unfortunately,

218
00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 4: you know, kind of just spit the bit, gave it up,

219
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:59,680
Speaker 4: gave up the the opportunity that he was afforded, and

220
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:03,520
Speaker 4: somebody to step in right away. And for him to

221
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,520
Speaker 4: be able to do it as quickly as he did

222
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,360
Speaker 4: is remarkable. It really is. It's truly remarkable. I think

223
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,200
Speaker 4: credit should go to Zach, should go to Dan Pitcher,

224
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 4: should go to you know, all the offensive coaches teammates

225
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,120
Speaker 4: for you know, making life easier for him.

226
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:20,160
Speaker 5: He does.

227
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:24,120
Speaker 4: He let's face it, he's got the the the plus

228
00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 4: coming to Cincinnati of throwing the football to like a

229
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 4: dynamic trio of receivers, not just a receiver, but multiples,

230
00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 4: you know. And I think also, uh give a lot

231
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 4: of credit to his wife for the help that she

232
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,400
Speaker 4: gave him.

233
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:39,640
Speaker 5: You know.

234
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 4: I mean, here he is driving down from Cleveland. They

235
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 4: get him a car and a driver and to his

236
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 4: wife or a backseat whatever seat they're in, and they're

237
00:11:48,040 --> 00:11:51,680
Speaker 4: just she's grilling, she's grilling about the Cincinnati Bengals offense.

238
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,560
Speaker 4: I'll give you a formation, you give me the play.

239
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 4: I'll give you a play, Give me the formation, give

240
00:11:55,920 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 4: me any nuances with the play, you know, if there's

241
00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 4: any motion or change the strength or whatever the case

242
00:12:01,000 --> 00:12:05,240
Speaker 4: may be. For him to do what he did in

243
00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,640
Speaker 4: such a short period of time, it took him a

244
00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 4: little while, you know, to to you know, crank it up,

245
00:12:11,600 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 4: get the juices flow and get the blood flowing a

246
00:12:13,520 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 4: little bit. But when he did, man, he really was magnificent.

247
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:20,760
Speaker 3: I love the fact that even he said on Thursday night,

248
00:12:20,760 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 3: there's still some plays that he didn't quite get all

249
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:26,640
Speaker 3: of from Zach and the headset or was talking about

250
00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 3: Zach's Zach was joking about his own Oklahoma accent and

251
00:12:30,120 --> 00:12:32,520
Speaker 3: how it wasn't quite getting to him. And he went

252
00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,400
Speaker 3: to the line and he said, they made it work,

253
00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:36,000
Speaker 3: and they laughed as they went to the sidelines.

254
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:36,800
Speaker 2: The number of times.

255
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,679
Speaker 3: Maybe the full play wasn't there, the formation was quite right,

256
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 3: but a veteran he is, they still were able to

257
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 3: make it work. There was no panic, there was no

258
00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:46,600
Speaker 3: you know, time out, I need to figure this out.

259
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,000
Speaker 3: They just figured it out on the fly, and that's

260
00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:50,199
Speaker 3: what a veteran does right.

261
00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 4: And the plays that ended in the letter F we're

262
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:58,640
Speaker 4: the ones that were a problem. Like Flaco couldn't he

263
00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:02,040
Speaker 4: couldn't hear it. He couldn't understand what what is the word?

264
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,320
Speaker 4: So is this a code game or something?

265
00:13:05,679 --> 00:13:08,679
Speaker 5: What are we doing here? This is I don't have

266
00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 5: time for this.

267
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:11,959
Speaker 4: I need I need to break the huddle and get

268
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 4: to the line of scrimmer so I can have some

269
00:13:13,600 --> 00:13:15,240
Speaker 4: time with the line of scrimmage and need to check

270
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:16,600
Speaker 4: the play and check.

271
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 5: From one to another.

272
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:21,080
Speaker 4: So when you when you factor all that in, it

273
00:13:21,200 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 4: really is it's a it's a it's a great story.

274
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,360
Speaker 4: It's probably one of the Alvin Preer would probably agree

275
00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:28,320
Speaker 4: it's one of the better stories in the National Football

276
00:13:28,360 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 4: League right now.

277
00:13:29,520 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, And to think of the quick turnaround and the

278
00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:37,679
Speaker 3: results from it, and just you know, you gotta you

279
00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 3: gotta trust your coach, and your coaches have to know

280
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 3: what it's that classic, figure out what he likes, what

281
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 3: he doesn't like, throw out some of the stuff, let's

282
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,760
Speaker 3: maybe massage some of the stuff. And it looks like

283
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,199
Speaker 3: he's comfortable. He's you know, when you operate at the

284
00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 3: level he did on Thursday, night on eight days rest

285
00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:59,079
Speaker 3: or eight days in the system, you're doing.

286
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,040
Speaker 4: Something absolutely and uh, you know, the coaches they have

287
00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:07,080
Speaker 4: to have a respect for his football IQ, his football mind,

288
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:10,120
Speaker 4: his football intelligence, and even if he's only got like

289
00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,160
Speaker 4: parts of it and he's missing like a little component,

290
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 4: figure it out and get it, get it put together.

291
00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:16,520
Speaker 4: You played a lot of football. We trust you, you know,

292
00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:19,280
Speaker 4: and get it. Get that part of it done. But

293
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,200
Speaker 4: I think the other thing, the big thing that he

294
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 4: gives his teammates is hope, you know. And now all

295
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:27,040
Speaker 4: of a sudden, everybody's you know, before the game watching

296
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:28,040
Speaker 4: him warm up, They're like.

297
00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,240
Speaker 5: WHOA, looks pretty good man.

298
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,360
Speaker 4: This might this might work out, This might be this

299
00:14:33,480 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 4: might be a lot of fun. And then what he

300
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 4: did during the course of the game and the adjustments

301
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,880
Speaker 4: he had to make, and the adversity he had to

302
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 4: overcome and just kept overcoming it again and again and again. Uh,

303
00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:46,680
Speaker 4: and putting points up on the board. I mean, that's

304
00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 4: you know, to put thirty on the board is that's

305
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:54,640
Speaker 4: that's extraordinary. So now you come in the locker room,

306
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,640
Speaker 4: you're filing off the field and.

307
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,080
Speaker 5: Was saying, man flackah song becomes a real deal. Man.

308
00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:03,560
Speaker 4: He's legit. Joe Flacco is the man. And now he

309
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:06,160
Speaker 4: has a presence in that locker room. When you when

310
00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:08,320
Speaker 4: you walked into that locker room after the game, you

311
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:11,720
Speaker 4: could feel that you could feel him taking over a

312
00:15:11,840 --> 00:15:15,960
Speaker 4: very prominent position and role in that football team, not

313
00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 4: only as a player, but as a leader. And you know,

314
00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 4: he's been a captain. He has got leadership. He's according

315
00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:23,520
Speaker 4: to players and coach that I've talked to, he's just

316
00:15:23,560 --> 00:15:24,440
Speaker 4: a good dude.

317
00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:25,240
Speaker 5: I mean, he.

318
00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,720
Speaker 4: Doesn't have a you know, like a malicious bone in

319
00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 4: his body kind of thing. You know, he wants everybody

320
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,520
Speaker 4: to do well. He wants everybody to succeed. He wants to,

321
00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:38,400
Speaker 4: you know, sing around the campfire little Kumbaya Dave.

322
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,240
Speaker 3: He also seems good at doing something as simple as

323
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,280
Speaker 3: bailing on a play when it's not there. He'll throw

324
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,120
Speaker 3: it into the ground and throw it out of bounds.

325
00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,760
Speaker 3: He sees it, recognizes it quickly enough to say it's

326
00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:52,400
Speaker 3: not there initially. I'm not going to extend this play

327
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: and create the potential for a turnover. I'm going to

328
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,960
Speaker 3: live to play another down. Let's go next down, bingo.

329
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,760
Speaker 3: I agree with one hundred percent LANs. I mean, you

330
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,960
Speaker 3: know football, You've watched a lot of it. He does

331
00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 3: not put the ball in jeopardy. It's like, you know,

332
00:16:04,760 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 3: if this is close, throwing it away or I'm gonna

333
00:16:08,000 --> 00:16:09,880
Speaker 3: put it in a spot that's going to be difficult

334
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:11,960
Speaker 3: for my receiver to make a play on it.

335
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,080
Speaker 4: But he's the only one that can make a difficult

336
00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 4: play on it, you know. And uh and and and

337
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:20,120
Speaker 4: I think the other thing is, like you said, man

338
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 4: does he make quick decisions. I mean, he scans that

339
00:16:22,840 --> 00:16:25,560
Speaker 4: field and knows what he's looking at. And you know

340
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 4: they start in cover two and then rotate to cover one,

341
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:32,880
Speaker 4: or you know they'll play cover three or man across

342
00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,880
Speaker 4: the board, whatever the case may be. He is on

343
00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 4: it like now, is no no wasted time whatsoever. And

344
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:43,120
Speaker 4: and that's a that's a big, big plus. And I

345
00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 4: think that part of his game. I think that And

346
00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:49,240
Speaker 4: then watching him when his teammates watched him throw the football,

347
00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 4: their confidence and Joe Flaco just went through the roof.

348
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:54,400
Speaker 3: All right, hang tight, we're up and running. We've got

349
00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:56,960
Speaker 3: plenty of ground to cover. We talked about Joe Flacco

350
00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 3: throwing the ball. Let's talk about that running game that

351
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:03,720
Speaker 3: newly covered running game and the gaping holes in which

352
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: Chase Brown and company ran through that. As we continue,

353
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,480
Speaker 3: he's Dave Lapham, I'm Lance, but Calister, thanks for being

354
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:11,919
Speaker 3: with us tonight. It's Bengals Line of the Bengals Radio

355
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:17,280
Speaker 3: Network and seven hundred WLW. Let's keep it moving along

356
00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: on this Monday night, a Bengals Line on the Bengals

357
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:22,479
Speaker 3: Radio Network in seven hundred WLW. Looking back at that

358
00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,720
Speaker 3: big Thursday night went over the Pittsburgh Steelers thirty three

359
00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:29,439
Speaker 3: thirty one. Well, eventually look ahead of the windless Jets

360
00:17:29,520 --> 00:17:31,880
Speaker 3: this weekend. We'll get to that coming up at hour

361
00:17:31,960 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 3: number three. But let's get to in this hour the

362
00:17:34,080 --> 00:17:37,719
Speaker 3: Bengals running game. Twenty three totes of the football for

363
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,960
Speaker 3: one hundred and forty two yards. That's an average of

364
00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 3: six point two yards of carry. Chase Brown eleven carries

365
00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:48,560
Speaker 3: one and eight yards, a nine point eight yards per

366
00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,000
Speaker 3: carry average. And there were moments he was galloping through

367
00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,640
Speaker 3: holes day it was fun to see. On Thursday night,

368
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 3: he was, I mean, when you average almost the first

369
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 3: down every time you run the football, and that's what

370
00:18:02,040 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 3: uh Chase Brown did, That's that's ridiculous. I mean that's

371
00:18:06,119 --> 00:18:10,200
Speaker 3: almost stupid at any level. But against the Pittsburgh Steelers

372
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:14,760
Speaker 3: and Mike Tomlin, who are known for having a vaunted

373
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,800
Speaker 3: run defense, I mean, they're not gonna They're gonna give

374
00:18:17,880 --> 00:18:22,399
Speaker 3: up uh rush yards grudgingly. It's not gonna be a

375
00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 3: cake walk when you go out there against the Pittsburgh

376
00:18:26,040 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 3: Steelers and the Bengals. Just man, they hit them right.

377
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:30,360
Speaker 3: They they changed up.

378
00:18:30,920 --> 00:18:34,800
Speaker 4: Uh, they had a lot of different blocking schematics in

379
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:36,840
Speaker 4: that run game. You know, they had to just come

380
00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,000
Speaker 4: off the line of scrimmage and knock people off the football,

381
00:18:39,000 --> 00:18:42,199
Speaker 4: which is which is great. And and once they started

382
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 4: doing that and anchoring the Pittsburgh Steelers, then they had

383
00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,080
Speaker 4: you know, down block, down, block, pull a gap scheme.

384
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,440
Speaker 4: That's what the gap scheme is. Basically, Uh, block down

385
00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,640
Speaker 4: and and and pull around and find finding somebody would

386
00:18:54,640 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 4: stick a hat on as that puller. They did a

387
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 4: good job of that. They ran some naked mean, Joe

388
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:04,680
Speaker 4: Flacco had a big carry that was a very important

389
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 4: play in the football game, and he was he was

390
00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,800
Speaker 4: almost laughing as hard he could barely describe the player

391
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:12,080
Speaker 4: in the locker room after the game.

392
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 3: But yeah, I think he may have summed it up

393
00:19:14,400 --> 00:19:16,200
Speaker 3: by saying he knew the formation was alright.

394
00:19:16,240 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 2: He said, screw it, I'll take it. Yeah, it goes

395
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,399
Speaker 2: for twelve yards.

396
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,960
Speaker 4: I know that they know how they're supposed to block it,

397
00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:24,680
Speaker 4: so I'm going to trust the fact they're going to

398
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: block it.

399
00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 5: Pretty well. Here I go. I mean, that's that's when

400
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:28,800
Speaker 5: you know it's going right.

401
00:19:28,840 --> 00:19:32,080
Speaker 4: Though. You know, sometimes some games it's like, man, I mean,

402
00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 4: we can't screw up. Even if we try to screw

403
00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 4: it up. You know, it's like it's impossible.

404
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 3: Today and so many it was so nice to see

405
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:43,159
Speaker 3: Chase Brown be able to get up ahead of steam

406
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,639
Speaker 3: so many carries this year he'd been hit now at

407
00:19:45,640 --> 00:19:48,000
Speaker 3: the lot of scrimmage, he'd been hitting the backfield on

408
00:19:48,040 --> 00:19:51,119
Speaker 3: the handoff and and it kind of reminds you of

409
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:53,960
Speaker 3: what they saw on him, especially last year when he

410
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,919
Speaker 3: went through like a six or seven game stretch with

411
00:19:55,960 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 3: over one hundred total yards in offense. He was catching it,

412
00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,159
Speaker 3: he was running it, but he was able to have

413
00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:01,639
Speaker 3: a little bit of space to do that.

414
00:20:01,720 --> 00:20:03,240
Speaker 2: And that space was there Thursday.

415
00:20:03,320 --> 00:20:04,400
Speaker 5: Nay, it was, it was.

416
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 4: It was you know, sometimes it was due to outstanding blocking.

417
00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,760
Speaker 4: I think sometimes it was maybe a little bit of

418
00:20:11,800 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 4: an assignment era a misalignment by the Pittsburgh Steelers or

419
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:18,679
Speaker 4: hitting a wrong gap two guys in one gap and

420
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:22,480
Speaker 4: then one gap just totally exposed and wide open. But

421
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,480
Speaker 4: credit the Bengals, they found it, you know. And the

422
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:28,159
Speaker 4: Chase Brown, like you said last, when he gets up

423
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 4: ahead of steam, the dude is an automatic. Yards after contact,

424
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 4: he's going to pick up something. It might only be

425
00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,760
Speaker 4: a yard or two, but that's a tough yard or

426
00:20:37,760 --> 00:20:39,760
Speaker 4: two that you don't have to worry about.

427
00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:39,679
Speaker 2: You know.

428
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:44,000
Speaker 4: And offensive linemen love running backs to do that, to

429
00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:46,600
Speaker 4: lower their pad level and just run people over and

430
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,240
Speaker 4: get yards after catch. I mean block for Pete Johnson,

431
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 4: he was bigger than us for crying out loud, but

432
00:20:51,240 --> 00:20:53,159
Speaker 4: that guy would flatten people and run him over and

433
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:56,439
Speaker 4: get yards after contact. And Chase Brown, the thing that

434
00:20:56,480 --> 00:21:00,600
Speaker 4: he has, he has the ability to power in the

435
00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:03,240
Speaker 4: in the power running attack. He has the power to

436
00:21:03,280 --> 00:21:05,880
Speaker 4: do that. But then he'll make you miss and he'll

437
00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,879
Speaker 4: run away from you. So I mean this guy, you

438
00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 4: get him in space defenders defensive backs in particular, like,

439
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,159
Speaker 4: I better come up and get myself ready here. This

440
00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 4: guy's the lord. I get a brace for it, and

441
00:21:17,880 --> 00:21:19,840
Speaker 4: then he'll make him look stilly, He'll make him miss.

442
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 4: So Chase Brown is a very talented guy. Plus the

443
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 4: fact that you know he'll I love there's a form alignment.

444
00:21:26,040 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 4: Love to watch this dude and blitz pick up. He

445
00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,760
Speaker 4: is stoning people now, he's sticking his face right in

446
00:21:30,800 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 4: there and stopping linebackers in their tracks when they're coming downhill,

447
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:38,200
Speaker 4: trying to blitz that. That's significant. Then he gets out

448
00:21:38,200 --> 00:21:40,200
Speaker 4: of the backfield. You know, they have a good screen

449
00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:43,440
Speaker 4: game with him, screen passes on the passing attack and

450
00:21:43,480 --> 00:21:46,840
Speaker 4: Flacco utilize that. And then just having him as a

451
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,400
Speaker 4: as an outlet a check down in the passing game

452
00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:52,800
Speaker 4: when they took away things down the football field, let

453
00:21:52,840 --> 00:21:56,160
Speaker 4: me get it Chase Brown and and generate some yards.

454
00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:57,280
Speaker 2: They went into the.

455
00:21:57,240 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 3: Game averaging I think fifty six yards per game rushing

456
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:04,200
Speaker 3: just fifty six a game. They were the only team

457
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,040
Speaker 3: in the NFL that didn't have a run of at

458
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 3: least fifteen yards until Thursday night.

459
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:09,520
Speaker 2: What does it mean?

460
00:22:09,560 --> 00:22:11,920
Speaker 3: And nobody expects them to go for one forty two

461
00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:14,560
Speaker 3: every game or average six per care every game. But

462
00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 3: if they've unlock something, if they can rush for four

463
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 3: yards a little tick over four yards per carrier. What

464
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,080
Speaker 3: does it mean for that offense? And what does it

465
00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 3: mean for how defenses are going to have to respect

466
00:22:25,240 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 3: that element of the game that's now been reintroduced to

467
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:28,400
Speaker 3: their offense.

468
00:22:28,920 --> 00:22:32,520
Speaker 4: I think that the successful teams in the NFL, I mean,

469
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 4: you look at the ones that always seem to be there,

470
00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 4: Philadelphia Eagles, you know, being one a real good example

471
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:43,199
Speaker 4: of it. They first and foremost want to run the

472
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 4: football every single week. They want to establish their ground game.

473
00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 4: They wanted to say, we're going to win the line

474
00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:53,080
Speaker 4: of scrimmage. We're going to basically show our physical dominance

475
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 4: by knocking you around and winning the line of scrimmage,

476
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,679
Speaker 4: and then okay, try to rush the pass on us.

477
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:00,680
Speaker 4: We're going to be a stone wall. We're gonna be

478
00:23:00,760 --> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 4: a fortress that you can't penetrate whatsoever. So that that's

479
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 4: kind of like the formula when the Steelers were great,

480
00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:07,200
Speaker 4: that's what they did.

481
00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:09,120
Speaker 5: I mean, they ran the heck out of the football.

482
00:23:09,200 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 4: Frank O'harris, Rocky Blyerlas, you have the bus, I mean,

483
00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 4: and then and then just you know, built the fortress

484
00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:19,120
Speaker 4: and said, you know what, you're not gonna touch Ben Roethlisberger.

485
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:21,200
Speaker 4: I mean, Ben's gonna be able to stand back there

486
00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,040
Speaker 4: and Survey. I mean I used to go nuts thinking, gosh,

487
00:23:24,080 --> 00:23:27,000
Speaker 4: somebody smack him, for God's sake. Don't let them sit there,

488
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:30,399
Speaker 4: and you know, survey one side to the other side, deep,

489
00:23:30,480 --> 00:23:33,720
Speaker 4: shallow deep again. It's like, God, man, he's got a

490
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:36,119
Speaker 4: day and a half too much time to throw the

491
00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:36,960
Speaker 4: football at all.

492
00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,040
Speaker 5: Starts with that sound running game.

493
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 3: What does it mean to and I there was a

494
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 3: clip on the sidelines and I think ted Carris was

495
00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 3: miked up, and late in the game, when the final

496
00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,639
Speaker 3: play had had fallen in completely it's over. Teddy stands

497
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:52,800
Speaker 3: up and you hear him let out this just scream

498
00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:56,159
Speaker 3: of joy and delight. And and I was thinking what

499
00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 3: it must have meant for that offensive line to feel

500
00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,680
Speaker 3: like they had kind of imposed their will to rush

501
00:24:02,720 --> 00:24:04,719
Speaker 3: for one hundred and forty two on the ground. What

502
00:24:04,760 --> 00:24:06,800
Speaker 3: does that mean as you're going back to the huddle

503
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:09,240
Speaker 3: and things, you're clicking and and you're reeling off six

504
00:24:09,320 --> 00:24:10,600
Speaker 3: yards per carry like they were.

505
00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:14,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's I can't explain the feeling. I mean, it

506
00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:19,440
Speaker 4: gives you such a such an unbelievable feeling of accomplishment,

507
00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:23,600
Speaker 4: you know, and it's an accomplishment by the group. And

508
00:24:23,720 --> 00:24:26,560
Speaker 4: with offensive line, I've talked about this many times as

509
00:24:26,600 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 4: a form alignment. It's like it's a fraternity. I mean,

510
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 4: it's a it's it's a very very close knit. I

511
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:38,000
Speaker 4: think it's the most close knit position group on the

512
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:43,880
Speaker 4: football team because you're codependent everybody the success.

513
00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:44,760
Speaker 5: Of your even your play.

514
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:47,480
Speaker 4: A lot of times there are snaps where you have

515
00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:50,040
Speaker 4: to have proper help or you're going to look bad.

516
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,720
Speaker 4: And uh, and it can happen. It does happen, there's

517
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:55,560
Speaker 4: no question about it. But you know, uh, when when

518
00:24:55,560 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 4: the offensive line is performing well and everything's in sync, uh,

519
00:25:00,760 --> 00:25:02,960
Speaker 4: it's just it's it's a thing of beauty to watch.

520
00:25:03,040 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 4: I mean, it's like there are five spokes in the

521
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,439
Speaker 4: wheel and every single spoke is doing exactly and holding

522
00:25:08,480 --> 00:25:10,959
Speaker 4: up strong and doing exactly you know what it's supposed

523
00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:13,119
Speaker 4: to do, and there's no broken spokes and there's no

524
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 4: you know, problem area in the offensive line. It's like, man,

525
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,119
Speaker 4: we can't we can't go over there because we know

526
00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:23,920
Speaker 4: that we can't handle the opposition over there. They're dominating us.

527
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,840
Speaker 4: But I think I think Ted was just kind of

528
00:25:28,000 --> 00:25:31,960
Speaker 4: uh he was exalting emotion from the entire group. Yes,

529
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 4: you know, like a like a tar san type Uh,

530
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 4: you know.

531
00:25:35,800 --> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 5: Uh.

532
00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:41,200
Speaker 3: Victory victory scream by Ted carras no doubt, no doubt.

533
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 3: All right, let's take a time out of come back.

Speaker 3: We are up and running towards three hours tonight. When

535

Speaker 3: we're ultimately done talking all things Bengals, let's get into

536
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 3: the defense. Some of the things that have gone right

537
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 3: with some of the things that need to be worked on,

538
00:25:53,560 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 3: and some of the guys they're they're getting looks at,

539

Speaker 3: and some of the guys like Cam Taylor brid who

540
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,720
Speaker 3: was on the outside looking in on Thursday. We'll sort

541
00:26:00,760 --> 00:26:03,000
Speaker 3: through the defense as we continue. He's Dave Lapham, I'm

542

Speaker 3: Lance Pacallister. Thanks for being with us tonight. It's Bengals

00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:20,800
Speaker 3: the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Speaker 2: I'm Lance Pacallister.

549
00:26:21,960 --> 00:26:24,200
Speaker 3: Alongside is Dave lap When we've talked to offense Joe

550
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:26,280
Speaker 3: Flacco in a little bit of that running game. We'll

551
00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,280
Speaker 3: get into Jamar Chase in his night a little bit

552
00:26:28,359 --> 00:26:30,320
Speaker 3: later on, and so much more on the offense. Let's

553
00:26:30,600 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 3: pick up some stuff on the defense first. The two

554
00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 3: turnovers forced, Jordan Battle gets an interception. DJ Turner for

555
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,080
Speaker 3: the second straight week. We're gonna talk about DJ Turner

556
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,600
Speaker 3: in terms of making plays and Dave on a defense

557
00:26:43,640 --> 00:26:48,200
Speaker 3: that needs guys beyond Trey, they need other playmakers. DJ

558
00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 3: Turner for two straight weeks has been a guy. He's

559
00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:51,200
Speaker 3: made plays.

560
00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,880
Speaker 4: Absolutely, Lance, you're right on again. You know what you're

561
00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,240
Speaker 4: looking at, my man? I mean DJ Turner is the

562
00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:01,760
Speaker 4: guy in the back end that it's making some wild plays,

563
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:04,679
Speaker 4: you know. I mean you have to have playmakers at

564
00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,480
Speaker 4: every level. With your defensive line. You got Trey Hunters

565
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,800
Speaker 4: coming off the edge, you know, creating havoc, wrecking games.

566
00:27:11,359 --> 00:27:14,840
Speaker 4: You know, just a consistently profound pass rusher.

567
00:27:15,480 --> 00:27:15,680
Speaker 2: Uh.

568
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,560
Speaker 4: You have to double and triple team the guy. And

569
00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 4: then when you do that, other guys are gonna eat

570
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:22,680
Speaker 4: because you know they're in one on one situations and

571
00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,119
Speaker 4: and they're gonna win their share of those. At the

572
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 4: linebacker level, you've got you know, solid play by a

573
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:30,760
Speaker 4: bunch of guys, a lot of young guys at that

574
00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 4: linebacker level that can really run, physically gifted, they've got

575
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 4: size speed ratio pluses. And Uh, Logan Wilson has kind

576
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 4: of made his sacrifice, and you know, things didn't go

577
00:27:40,640 --> 00:27:43,760
Speaker 4: well for him. Uh, it was decided that Al Golden

578
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:46,720
Speaker 4: decided that he was gonna go in a different direction.

579
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 4: And but but what Al Golden did is, Okay, you're

580
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 4: you're still gonna contribute, Logan, And you're gonna contribute. And

581
00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,600
Speaker 4: when we go three linebackers, when we go three four,

582
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:57,719
Speaker 4: three four, you're gonna be a big part of what

583
00:27:57,720 --> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 4: we're doing out there. When we go five to, you're

584
00:27:59,800 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 4: gonna be over there with me and helping maybe determine

585
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 4: what we need to do, adjustice, we need to bake,

586
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:09,040
Speaker 4: and things of that nature. Logan Wilson has immense brilliant

587
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:11,320
Speaker 4: football IQ. He's been around, he's been around the block.

588
00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 4: He knows what he's looking at and he can still

589
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,320
Speaker 4: play the game. So I and then again, you know,

590
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,240
Speaker 4: you get in the back end, you get a guy

591
00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 4: who turners just saying I'm gonna I'm gonna take control

592
00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 4: of this football game. I'm not gonna let anybody beat me.

593
00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 4: Nobody is gonna beat me one on one. I'm gonna

594
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,639
Speaker 4: do my job. I'm gonna take my guy out of

595
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,760
Speaker 4: the equation. There's no way that Aaron Rodgers is gonna

596
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,240
Speaker 4: throw to my guy and my my I'm taking away

597
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:40,640
Speaker 4: my portion of the field. And then uh, he's he's

598
00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 4: the best tackle that they have in space in the

599
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:46,080
Speaker 4: secondary by far. I mean, the guy is just a

600
00:28:46,120 --> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 4: machine getting guys on the ground. He doesn't miss many tackles.

601
00:28:50,120 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 4: And then when he makes it a tackle and causes

602
00:28:53,280 --> 00:28:57,240
Speaker 4: a turnover, that's you know, that's cherry on top of

603
00:28:57,240 --> 00:29:00,120
Speaker 4: the hot fudge Sunday man. You know, it's like that's

604
00:29:00,560 --> 00:29:03,840
Speaker 4: he's playing his tailoff in every every way that you

605
00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:07,640
Speaker 4: can play defensive football to impact the game for his team.

606
00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:09,040
Speaker 4: Turner's doing it.

607
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 3: David in the athleticism he showed on the sideline interception

608
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:14,600
Speaker 3: where he ripped it away and he got some help

609
00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,680
Speaker 3: from you give Geno Stone credit for the.

610
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:17,680
Speaker 2: Smack as well.

611
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,120
Speaker 3: I think that maybe loosened it up a little bit

612
00:29:20,120 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 3: for the rip away, which you know, Gino gets criticism

613
00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:25,640
Speaker 3: and slings an arrows sometimes, but he was in on

614
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:29,240
Speaker 3: that play in the right spot. But DJ Turner's closing

615
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:32,040
Speaker 3: speed and the ability to rip it away along the

616
00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,480
Speaker 3: sidelines and stay in bounds. That that was a flash

617
00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:37,200
Speaker 3: of a really nice skill set.

618
00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:42,560
Speaker 4: Absolutely, Like you say, a skill set that's just an athlete,

619
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:46,960
Speaker 4: particularly an athlete that's wearing shoulder pads and helmet, you know,

620
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,479
Speaker 4: a football athlete. Things that you have to have in

621
00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,200
Speaker 4: order to be uber successful in the game of football.

622
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,840
Speaker 4: Turner has an abundance. He has an abundance of them,

623
00:29:56,400 --> 00:30:00,360
Speaker 4: both mentally and physically. He's gifted to play this game

624
00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,400
Speaker 4: at a very high level. The Bengals did a good job,

625
00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,800
Speaker 4: you know, unearthing him and bringing him to the to

626
00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,560
Speaker 4: the table to make his contributions to the Cincinnati Bengals,

627
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:13,400
Speaker 4: and he he had one of his better games of

628
00:30:13,440 --> 00:30:17,520
Speaker 4: his career in a timely fashion against a division opponent

629
00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 4: that was a very important football game.

630
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,960
Speaker 3: You mentioned Logan Wilson, and there's there's a couple of

631
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,920
Speaker 3: ways something can go when you're at this stage of

632
00:30:24,960 --> 00:30:27,800
Speaker 3: your career and and you're told you're not going to

633
00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 3: get the snaps you were getting. We're gonna get younger

634
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,880
Speaker 3: guys in to get more snaps you. You can pack

635
00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:34,840
Speaker 3: it in, you can pout, you can sulk, you can

636
00:30:34,880 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 3: say trade me, release me, or whatever, or you can adjust.

637
00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,640
Speaker 3: And it looks like he's adjusted. He made a play

638
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,480
Speaker 3: when he was in there. The Pro Football Focus great

639
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,000
Speaker 3: say the plays he was in he he graded well.

640
00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 2: So that tells me he understands.

641
00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,120
Speaker 3: I'm I can still be useful for this team and

642
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 3: I can still make my presence felt, and that's not

643
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:57,520
Speaker 3: always the case with guys who lose the playing time.

644
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 4: Right on, Lance, you right on again, and Logan Wilson understands,

645
00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 4: like you were talking about, I can I can be

646
00:31:06,800 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 4: a problem, or I can be a solution to a problem.

647
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,800
Speaker 4: And I'd prefer to be the solution to the problem.

648
00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:16,560
Speaker 4: I'd rather help my teammates every way I possibly can,

649
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:20,640
Speaker 4: both physically and mentally. I'd rather help my teammates get

650
00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:22,520
Speaker 4: ready to play at the highest level that they can

651
00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 4: possibly play at. I'd love to see all my teammates,

652
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:29,520
Speaker 4: you know, lead the team in tackles and and make

653
00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,120
Speaker 4: a lot of money. Because Logan Wilson is he's played

654
00:31:32,160 --> 00:31:35,120
Speaker 4: a long time, he's made money, and you know he

655
00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 4: and his family are taken care of. But shoot, no problem,

656
00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:41,080
Speaker 4: no reason not to make more, and he's going to

657
00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:45,200
Speaker 4: do that in his leadership. I think his leadership is

658
00:31:45,200 --> 00:31:47,240
Speaker 4: is a big thing. I think during the course of

659
00:31:47,280 --> 00:31:49,760
Speaker 4: the game, when there's gonna be ebbs and flows and

660
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 4: you're gonna have leads and you're gonna, you know, spit

661
00:31:52,400 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 4: the bit and give the leads up, and then do

662
00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,160
Speaker 4: you have the guts and determination wherewithal to continue to

663
00:31:58,200 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 4: play and get the lead back? And in the National

664
00:32:01,040 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 4: Football League, more games come down to one score or

665
00:32:05,080 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 4: less at the end of the football game than not.

666
00:32:07,920 --> 00:32:09,960
Speaker 4: So you have to have guys with the mindset and

667
00:32:09,960 --> 00:32:12,760
Speaker 4: the makeup of the mentality that Logan Wilson has displayed

668
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,720
Speaker 4: during the course of his career with the Cincinnati Bengals

669
00:32:15,960 --> 00:32:18,200
Speaker 4: to win your share of those types of games.

670
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:20,960
Speaker 3: I love the fact that in the media session last

671
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 3: week he more or less put his arm around Barrett

672
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: Carter with the media and said, whatever this guy needs,

673
00:32:25,480 --> 00:32:28,520
Speaker 3: I'm paraphrasing, I'm here for him, and you could, as

674
00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:31,000
Speaker 3: the more veteran guy, you can let him be on

675
00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 3: their own and let them think, all right, I'm going

676
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 3: to let him fail and I'm going to get my

677
00:32:35,240 --> 00:32:38,520
Speaker 3: job back. Instead he's right there for him, passing on

678
00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,200
Speaker 3: his working knowledge, which is the essence of being a

679
00:32:41,200 --> 00:32:42,480
Speaker 3: professional player.

680
00:32:42,200 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 5: Right on, right on again.

681
00:32:43,480 --> 00:32:47,239
Speaker 4: And you know, it's not easy to do sometimes, you know,

682
00:32:47,440 --> 00:32:52,640
Speaker 4: but it's how you can continue to have a career.

683
00:32:53,160 --> 00:32:57,120
Speaker 4: And maybe Logan Wilson might consider coaching, you know. I mean,

684
00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,840
Speaker 4: I don't know what his aspirations are after playing the

685
00:32:59,880 --> 00:33:00,760
Speaker 4: game of football.

686
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,280
Speaker 5: I think he'd be a damn good coach.

687
00:33:02,360 --> 00:33:06,280
Speaker 4: I think he has that type of that type of personality,

688
00:33:06,320 --> 00:33:09,440
Speaker 4: that type of mentality, that type of mindset. He is

689
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,280
Speaker 4: a very very intelligent football player. Like we've talked about.

690
00:33:14,720 --> 00:33:18,480
Speaker 4: The other thing that this shows is on both sides

691
00:33:18,480 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 4: of this. It's like, you know, Logan Wilson, he could

692
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,880
Speaker 4: have been like, I'm too cool for school. This sucks.

693
00:33:26,120 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 4: I'm not going to help you a bit. I'm gonna

694
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 4: I hope you fall flat in your face, and I

695
00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 4: might even try to do as much as I possibly

696
00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,480
Speaker 4: can to make sure you fall flat in your face.

697
00:33:35,960 --> 00:33:38,400
Speaker 4: Just the opposite, like you talked about how he's been

698
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:43,400
Speaker 4: handling it, and then Barrett Carter, he respects Logan Wilson. Yeah,

699
00:33:43,480 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 4: he respects what he's done. So he's not going to

700
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 4: be like, you know what, Yeah, I'm the young buck.

701
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 4: I'm better than you. I can kick your butt, man,

702
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:54,920
Speaker 4: I can do whatever, you know, And I'm I'm gonna

703
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:56,760
Speaker 4: be a Pro Bowl player. I'm gonna be you know,

704
00:33:57,120 --> 00:34:01,360
Speaker 4: no arrogance, no conceit, you know, none of those kind

705
00:34:01,440 --> 00:34:03,440
Speaker 4: of things. And I think once again you have to

706
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:07,080
Speaker 4: give credit to Duke Tobin in the scouting department for

707
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 4: finding guys that aren't just good football players, but are

708
00:34:10,239 --> 00:34:11,320
Speaker 4: damn good people.

709
00:34:11,920 --> 00:34:14,120

Speaker 4: may be. We don't have all details the severity of

723
00:34:56,680 --> 00:34:59,680
Speaker 4: the poll of a pectoral muscle, which is up in

724
00:34:59,680 --> 00:35:01,880
Speaker 4: the check. You know, you have the pack, you have

725
00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:06,279
Speaker 4: the major and minor pectoral, and so that's that's good.

726
00:35:06,320 --> 00:35:09,680
Speaker 4: That's a tough injury because you can't put your hands

727
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,160
Speaker 4: above your head, you know, to catch the football. You

728
00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,920
Speaker 4: can't block and finish and extend your arms. Depending on

729
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:19,440
Speaker 4: this verity again of the pectoral injury. So he you know,

730
00:35:19,520 --> 00:35:22,000
Speaker 4: he may might be out a little bit. And uh,

731
00:35:22,320 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 4: now you have uh uh Hudson another tight end that's

732
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:27,400
Speaker 4: got concussion.

733
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,400
Speaker 5: He was in concussion protocol. So how long is that

734
00:35:30,440 --> 00:35:30,839
Speaker 5: going to be?

735
00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:33,480
Speaker 4: When will he be cleared? Will he be playing this week?

736
00:35:33,840 --> 00:35:36,000
Speaker 4: Well maybe not this week, but will he be playing

737
00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:37,040
Speaker 4: the following week?

738
00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:37,799
Speaker 5: I don't know.

739
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 4: Sometimes concussions can be you know, dicey, They can be tricky.

740
00:35:41,400 --> 00:35:44,160
Speaker 4: It can be two three weeks or whatever. Uh, you know,

741
00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:47,640
Speaker 4: down the down the down the road. And then Trey Hendrickson,

742
00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:51,399
Speaker 4: your best pass rusher, has got a hip issue and

743
00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:55,480
Speaker 4: and let's face it, that's not an easy injury to

744
00:35:55,760 --> 00:35:58,839
Speaker 4: overcome and get back out on the football field and

745
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 4: knock heads with big you know, six foot five three

746
00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 4: and twenty pound offensive tackles snap after snap. So they

747
00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:09,759
Speaker 4: do have their share of injury, not as bad as

748
00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:12,400
Speaker 4: some teams around the National Football League, but they're not

749
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:13,560
Speaker 4: injury free as well.

750

769
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,319
Speaker 3: He was off the little scooter thing he's been using.

770
00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,800
Speaker 3: Still a ways away, but reports from the NFL network

771
00:37:18,840 --> 00:37:23,520
Speaker 3: where things are going well. He's targeting mid December. Now,

772
00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:25,319
Speaker 3: there's a long way to go between now and then,

773
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 3: but it's a great sign to see Joe up and

774
00:37:27,040 --> 00:37:27,720
Speaker 3: walking around.

775
00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:31,800
Speaker 4: Absolutely, and I think, honestly, Joe Flacco was glad to

776
00:37:31,840 --> 00:37:32,200
Speaker 4: see him.

777
00:37:32,200 --> 00:37:32,320
Speaker 3: You know.

778
00:37:32,400 --> 00:37:34,360
Speaker 5: I mean, what.

779
00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:38,080
Speaker 4: The world of quarterback position in the National Football Leagues

780
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:41,239
Speaker 4: of fraternity, and it's a pretty small fraternity, and there's

781
00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:46,160
Speaker 4: a big level of respect there amongst these quarterbacks and

782
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:50,280
Speaker 4: the talents that these quarterbacks do have, and every quarterback

783
00:37:50,320 --> 00:37:53,319
Speaker 4: knows exactly what the other quarterbacks going through, you know.

784
00:37:54,520 --> 00:38:00,480
Speaker 4: And so Joe Flacco, he I'm sure he is welcoming

785
00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 4: any comments, any not criticisms, but any input. Yeah, good,

786
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:11,279
Speaker 4: good word input that Joe Borrow may have in terms of, hey,

787
00:38:11,960 --> 00:38:14,759
Speaker 4: when you're running that play, when they call it again,

788
00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,200
Speaker 4: because we'll call it because we picked up twelve yards,

789
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:18,879
Speaker 4: so they're going to call this thing again, this tight

790
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,520
Speaker 4: end drag across man. Let them clear a little longer,

791
00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,439
Speaker 4: you know, and it'll it'll be a home run. It'll

792
00:38:24,440 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 4: go for even more yards. Or you know, when they're

793
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 4: in cover two pre snap, they're giving this little tell.

794
00:38:29,719 --> 00:38:32,160
Speaker 4: I see this tip that the strong safety is doing

795
00:38:32,200 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 4: before he drops down in the box, and you know,

796
00:38:34,280 --> 00:38:36,680
Speaker 4: and the free safety is rotating and you know to

797
00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:39,759
Speaker 4: cover one. And you might have seen it, Joe. If

798
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:42,680
Speaker 4: you haven't, here's what I saw, you know, And I

799
00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,440
Speaker 4: just want to make sure that you know. If I'm

800
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,239
Speaker 4: seeing things over here on the sideline, I want to

801
00:38:47,280 --> 00:38:49,080
Speaker 4: make sure that you're seeing them as well out in

802
00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 4: the football field, because I want to do everything I

803
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,839
Speaker 4: possibly can to help my football team win the football game,

804
00:38:55,040 --> 00:38:57,359
Speaker 4: because I can't do anything physically, so all I can

805
00:38:57,400 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 4: do is help from a from a metal standpoint. And

806
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:03,480
Speaker 4: nobody has as good a mind for the game of football.

807
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:03,760
Speaker 5: As Joe Burrow.

808
00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:09,280
Speaker 3: And there there is a The report was mid December. Again,

809
00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:11,920
Speaker 3: this is all who knows this will be. There's a

810
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 3: lot of hurdles to clear in the rehab and it's

811
00:39:14,680 --> 00:39:19,080
Speaker 3: got to keep going right and at least though mid December.

812
00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,320
Speaker 3: It causes me to at least look at the schedule.

813
00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:23,680
Speaker 3: I say, all right, there's six more games to get

814
00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:27,279
Speaker 3: to mid December. That's December fourteenth. If I account mid

815
00:39:27,360 --> 00:39:31,319
Speaker 3: is December fourteenth. Can this team hang around, stay in

816
00:39:31,320 --> 00:39:35,400
Speaker 3: contention and like build a bridge almost to Joe Burrow

817
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,200
Speaker 3: and that that sure beats sitting at two and five

818
00:39:38,239 --> 00:39:40,840
Speaker 3: had you lost Thursday and having no bridge to build bingo.

819
00:39:41,200 --> 00:39:46,800
Speaker 4: It does, and what it gives the football team thinking that, wow,

820
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 4: the middle of December, we may have the best quarterback

821
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:52,600
Speaker 4: in the National Football League back throwing to Jamar Chase

822
00:39:52,600 --> 00:39:55,640
Speaker 4: and T Higgins and I mean andre Yosi Vash and

823
00:39:55,680 --> 00:39:59,320
Speaker 4: hopefully Kasiki's back by then. And you know, Hudson and everybody,

824
00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 4: we have all of our our arsenal, all of our weapons.

825
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 4: It gives us hope, man, and there's there's nothing better

826
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:08,600
Speaker 4: than hope, you know, keep hope alive. And and that's

827
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:12,799
Speaker 4: what that's what this will do. And it just it

828
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:17,479
Speaker 4: just gives the team probably feels a lot more whole. Yes,

829
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,799
Speaker 4: when Joe Burrows on the sideline, be it in a

830
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:23,080
Speaker 4: boot or whatever the case may be, uh supporting that

831
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:24,279
Speaker 4: that injury that he's got.

832
00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,640
Speaker 5: So yeah, it's it's it's all good.

833
00:40:27,719 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 4: There's no there's no negative whatsoever in any way, shape

834
00:40:31,280 --> 00:40:34,040
Speaker 4: or form about Joe Burrow being down that sideline.

835
00:40:34,200 --> 00:40:36,520
Speaker 3: I had heard, and this had bugged me for the

836
00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,880
Speaker 3: last couple of weeks. I don't think people understood what

837
00:40:39,000 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 3: Joe was going through. I had heard from a number

838
00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,439
Speaker 3: of people who said, why isn't Joe with the team,

839
00:40:43,440 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 3: Why isn't Joe helping it? And and one the initial

840
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,600
Speaker 3: surgery left him on a scooter with with his leg

841
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:50,359
Speaker 3: up on a pad.

842
00:40:50,600 --> 00:40:50,799
Speaker 5: Yep.

843
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 3: So one, you're not gonna you're not going to travel

844
00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,680
Speaker 3: with your scooter on a plane and deal with all

845
00:40:55,719 --> 00:40:57,400
Speaker 3: that and through the airports and everything else. You're not

846
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,239
Speaker 3: gonna be on the sidelines on a scooter and open

847
00:40:59,280 --> 00:41:01,839
Speaker 3: yourself up at being immobile if a play comes out

848
00:41:01,840 --> 00:41:03,560
Speaker 3: of bounds and runs in. I mean, there were just

849
00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:05,920
Speaker 3: too many things that could go wrong. So I never

850
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:09,480
Speaker 3: understood why anybody would want Joe based on everything he

851
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:11,240
Speaker 3: was having to deal with with the scooter, why anybody

852
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:12,960
Speaker 3: thought he should have been with the team at that point.

853
00:41:13,000 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 5: I agree. I agree with all of that. I mean

854
00:41:15,440 --> 00:41:16,399
Speaker 5: that physical part.

855
00:41:16,680 --> 00:41:18,399
Speaker 4: I mean it's hard for him to move around, hard

856
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 4: for him to, you know, travel with the apparatus, got

857
00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:23,120
Speaker 4: to pack it underneath the plane and you know everything else.

858
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:26,160
Speaker 4: So it's not an easy chore. Plus the other thing is,

859
00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:31,680
Speaker 4: let's face it, broadcasters would be looking at, say, Joe

860
00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:35,520
Speaker 4: Flacco makes a poor decision that throws internship. Oh man,

861
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:37,839
Speaker 4: look Joe Burrow sitting on that sideline looking. I wonder

862
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,280
Speaker 4: what he's thinking. I wonder what's going through Joe Burrow's

863
00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,480
Speaker 4: mind right now when Joe Flacco throws that key interception

864
00:41:43,600 --> 00:41:45,839
Speaker 4: with two minutes to go in the first half, boy

865
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:49,520
Speaker 4: oh boy, and all of that can't that big can

866
00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,839
Speaker 4: of worms gets opened up, and you know it's it's

867
00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:55,680
Speaker 4: tough enough for Joe Flacco in a short period of

868
00:41:55,680 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 4: time to get ready to play to the level that

869
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 4: he's played at US, never mind being compared to Joe

870
00:42:00,480 --> 00:42:04,480
Speaker 4: Burrow at his best, when he's potential MVP candidate in

871
00:42:04,520 --> 00:42:06,320
Speaker 4: the National Football League.

872
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,680
Speaker 3: I'm and I've never gone through turf toe. I think

873
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,400
Speaker 3: it would be interesting and fascinating to think if everything

874
00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,560
Speaker 3: starts at your base and your feet. I wonder how

875
00:42:16,680 --> 00:42:19,640
Speaker 3: much rehab, what what rehab is like for Joe or

876
00:42:19,680 --> 00:42:22,479
Speaker 3: if mid December is doable. It's not like you can

877
00:42:22,600 --> 00:42:25,840
Speaker 3: you can do any running conditioning and I don't know.

878
00:42:25,920 --> 00:42:27,800
Speaker 3: I guess you can sit there and throw a football.

879
00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 3: But when everything starts at your feed and your toes,

880
00:42:30,120 --> 00:42:31,080
Speaker 3: it's got to make it tough.

881
00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:32,080
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's brutal.

882
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:34,760
Speaker 4: I mean, it's the it's the base of your foundation,

883
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:38,480
Speaker 4: you know, and uh, all your weight gravity, and it

884
00:42:38,520 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 4: takes it takes it right down there. I did have

885
00:42:41,320 --> 00:42:45,279
Speaker 4: turf toe. Mine was caused by you know, on on

886
00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,799
Speaker 4: the goal line trying to block and get underneath people

887
00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,960
Speaker 4: and borrow under and banging shan my toe into the

888
00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:55,760
Speaker 4: the astra turf, the fake fake grass which had no padding.

889
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:58,680
Speaker 5: I mean it was hardest rock and uh and.

890
00:42:58,600 --> 00:43:02,400
Speaker 4: Man, I'm telling you as alignment it was, it was

891
00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 4: not as severe probably as Joe's, but it was painful.

892
00:43:06,200 --> 00:43:09,040
Speaker 4: I mean, there was definitely something there. It wasn't normal,

893
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:14,480
Speaker 4: that's for sure. Man, telling you you just in your mind,

894
00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:17,840
Speaker 4: your mind is don't favorite, don't favorite, you know, treated equally,

895
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:20,560
Speaker 4: treated just like the other one. But man, that pain

896
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:24,240
Speaker 4: is like the pain's there for a reason. God invented

897
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:27,000
Speaker 4: pain to let you know, dude, cut it out, don't

898
00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:30,400
Speaker 4: be stupid. Stop it, you know. So yeah, there's no

899
00:43:31,000 --> 00:43:33,839
Speaker 4: there's no magic wand that Joe Burrow can wave and

900
00:43:33,920 --> 00:43:38,360
Speaker 4: uh and and you know eliminate his his issue, his injury.

901
00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 4: So he has to be has to be mindful of that.

902
00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:43,680
Speaker 4: And if you try to come back too quickly, which

903
00:43:43,680 --> 00:43:47,800
Speaker 4: I tried to do for practice standpoint, I tried to

904
00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:50,640
Speaker 4: come back a day earlier than I should have, jammed

905
00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:53,080
Speaker 4: that bad boy up, tweaked it and like, whoa man,

906
00:43:53,200 --> 00:43:55,359
Speaker 4: that put me back a little bit. And now you're

907
00:43:55,719 --> 00:43:57,960
Speaker 4: not only back, but you're worse.

908
00:43:58,080 --> 00:43:58,279
Speaker 6: You know.

909
00:43:58,360 --> 00:44:01,800
Speaker 4: You're like if there are steps leading down to the basement,

910
00:44:02,280 --> 00:44:04,439
Speaker 4: instead of four step down, you're the fifth step down,

911
00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,279
Speaker 4: you know. And it's like, oh, brother, why did I

912
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,440
Speaker 4: do it? That was stupid? Why did I do that? Well,

913
00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:10,600
Speaker 4: you did it because you love your team, You love

914
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:12,719
Speaker 4: your teammates. You want to do what you can to

915
00:44:12,800 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 4: help your coaches, you know, keep their jobs and win

916
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 4: as many football games as they can.

917
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:20,879
Speaker 3: Final thought, as we hit the brake, if we were

918
00:44:20,920 --> 00:44:25,440
Speaker 3: looking at that December fourteenth return, potentially just as a

919
00:44:25,480 --> 00:44:28,120
Speaker 3: moving target, there'll be four games left in the regular

920
00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:31,560
Speaker 3: season that would include Baltimore at the Dolphins home to

921
00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:33,719
Speaker 3: the Cardinals and home to the brown So they'd be

922
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 3: thirteen games into the season with four games left. If,

923
00:44:37,120 --> 00:44:40,239
Speaker 3: in fact, Joe could hit a December fourteenth target. That's

924
00:44:40,400 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 3: a big if at this point, but it's certainly an

925
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:45,320
Speaker 3: if that is worth at least considering and getting a

926
00:44:45,360 --> 00:44:47,719
Speaker 3: little excited about with the possibilities.

927
00:44:47,840 --> 00:44:49,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you look at those That's not Murderer's role,

928
00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,200
Speaker 4: it's not. I mean Baltimore. Baltimore is struggling right now,

929
00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:56,600
Speaker 4: but you know Lamar Jackson's out. They have more guys

930
00:44:56,600 --> 00:44:59,360
Speaker 4: out than they have playing. Yes, if the Baltimore Ravens

931
00:44:59,440 --> 00:45:00,720
Speaker 4: roster there's playing now, it's.

932
00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:01,520
Speaker 5: Like, who are these guys?

933
00:45:01,880 --> 00:45:03,799
Speaker 4: You know, you need a who's who of football to

934
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 4: identify who the players are. They'll they'll probably all be

935
00:45:07,640 --> 00:45:10,840
Speaker 4: back and playing at a relatively high level. They'll probably

936
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:13,000
Speaker 4: have been playing for at least a couple of weeks

937
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 4: before they match up against the Cincinnati Bengals. But man,

938
00:45:17,360 --> 00:45:20,160
Speaker 4: the other teams, if the Bengals can't beat them, they

939
00:45:20,160 --> 00:45:22,120
Speaker 4: don't deserve to be in the playoff hunt anyway.

940
00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the name of the name of the game.

941
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:27,359
Speaker 3: Well, when we come back, I've had a question ask

942
00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,480
Speaker 3: of me a lot that I'll ask you to you

943
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 3: and it's and we just went through what Joe Burrow

944
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,080
Speaker 3: might be able to do to help Joe Flacco. I've

945
00:45:35,120 --> 00:45:38,440
Speaker 3: been asked a lot about does Joe Flacco. Can Joe

946
00:45:38,480 --> 00:45:41,919
Speaker 3: Burrow learn things from Joe Flacco? Flacco is the most

947
00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:46,200
Speaker 3: experienced quarterback that Joe's had with him on the team

948
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:48,640
Speaker 3: at one time. Yeah, seen a lot, done a lot

949
00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:52,799
Speaker 3: things that maybe Joe could learn and see through Joe

950
00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,000
Speaker 3: Flacco's performance. Let's do a little bit of that and

951
00:45:55,080 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 3: more as we continue. It's Bengals Line on the Bengals

960
00:46:21,000 --> 00:46:22,839
Speaker 3: So day we were talking about Joe Flacco, we were

961
00:46:22,840 --> 00:46:25,800
Speaker 3: talking about Joe Burrow. Joe Flacco clearly has the most

962
00:46:25,840 --> 00:46:30,360
Speaker 3: impressive resume, the most accomplished quarterback that Joe has played

963
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:33,280
Speaker 3: with on this Bengals roster. He's never had a backup

964
00:46:33,360 --> 00:46:35,600
Speaker 3: or now obviously a starter in Flacco, who's done what

965
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:36,840
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco has done.

966
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:38,880
Speaker 2: Is there are there things.

967
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:43,160
Speaker 3: You And I'm always I'm always big on getting different perspective,

968
00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:45,439
Speaker 3: but a different a different way of looking at things

969
00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,440
Speaker 3: and fresh eyes and and I think it's good for

970
00:46:48,560 --> 00:46:51,440
Speaker 3: Joe now, especially now that he's with the team, to

971
00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:55,239
Speaker 3: see someone else do what he did and know that

972
00:46:55,280 --> 00:46:58,640
Speaker 3: it's done from somebody has accomplished is Joe Flacco. There's

973
00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:03,240
Speaker 3: got to be nuances or mannerisms or get tendencies. There's

974
00:47:03,239 --> 00:47:04,719
Speaker 3: got to be a variety of things that could be

975
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:06,440
Speaker 3: there to be picked up on by Joe Burrow.

976
00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:08,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I would think there's ways that he can

977
00:47:08,960 --> 00:47:12,720
Speaker 4: tweak his game, you know. And good call by you.

978
00:47:12,719 --> 00:47:15,360
Speaker 4: You're a very intelligent man. I mean you you you

979
00:47:15,880 --> 00:47:18,440
Speaker 4: try to learn as much as you can every single day.

980
00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:20,719
Speaker 4: I mean, I think the day that any of us

981
00:47:20,719 --> 00:47:23,839
Speaker 4: say absolutely, I don't want I don't want to even

982
00:47:23,880 --> 00:47:27,440
Speaker 4: hear anything anymore. I don't want to don't don't muddy

983
00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:29,839
Speaker 4: the waters. Man, don't cloud the issue. To me, I've

984
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:32,799
Speaker 4: got to figure it out. That's the first day you're

985
00:47:32,840 --> 00:47:34,560
Speaker 4: on the way down, you know, that's the first day

986
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:38,880
Speaker 4: you're you're closer to not retire, either retirement or getting fired,

987
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:42,640
Speaker 4: you know, and people people moving on. And and I

988
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:45,000
Speaker 4: do think that Joe Burrow does look at Joe Flacco

989
00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,920
Speaker 4: as somebody that, man, this guy's a great resource for me.

990
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:51,520
Speaker 4: I love learning all I can about the game of football.

991
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,200
Speaker 4: I'm a football savant. I want to know everything there

992
00:47:54,239 --> 00:47:56,799
Speaker 4: is to know about the game and how to play

993
00:47:56,840 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 4: the game, and how to play the game at the

994
00:47:58,480 --> 00:48:01,399
Speaker 4: highest level. And Joe Blaco has been an MVP, Joe

995
00:48:01,480 --> 00:48:04,000
Speaker 4: fat Flacco has won playoff games, you know, in neither

996
00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,040
Speaker 4: one of us have won the Super Bowl. Yet that's

997
00:48:06,080 --> 00:48:10,040
Speaker 4: our ultimate goal. If we collaborate and do things the

998
00:48:10,120 --> 00:48:12,759
Speaker 4: right way here, one plus one is going to equal three.

999
00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 4: It just won't eat just won't equal two. You know,

1000
00:48:15,320 --> 00:48:18,200
Speaker 4: there'll be a synergistic effect here that will help the

1001
00:48:18,360 --> 00:48:19,279
Speaker 4: entire football team.

1002
00:48:19,360 --> 00:48:23,000
Speaker 3: And David, I wonder and their there are stark differences

1003
00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:24,839
Speaker 3: between the two in terms of what we talked about

1004
00:48:24,840 --> 00:48:29,000
Speaker 3: with Joe Flacco earlier. He will when the play isn't there,

1005
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,600
Speaker 3: he won't try to make something of it. He moves on.

1006
00:48:32,120 --> 00:48:34,640
Speaker 3: Joe is different from the standpoint. Joe's very good at

1007
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:37,359
Speaker 3: extending plays and trying to get that wide receiver. Ope,

1008
00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:39,840
Speaker 3: but at the last minute, maybe taking a hit sometimes

1009
00:48:39,840 --> 00:48:43,000
Speaker 3: it might lead an interception. I wonder if Joe sees

1010
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:45,759
Speaker 3: a different way of maybe I don't always have to

1011
00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:48,239
Speaker 3: extend plays. Maybe there is something to be said for

1012
00:48:48,360 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 3: don't take the hit or don't risk the throw, just

1013
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:52,359
Speaker 3: throw it away and move on to the next play.

1014
00:48:52,440 --> 00:48:55,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, there's nothing wrong with reevaluating you the

1015
00:48:55,640 --> 00:48:57,960
Speaker 4: way you look at your game, you know, uh, the

1016
00:48:58,000 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 4: way you look at the game of football as a whole.

1017
00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:04,359
Speaker 4: Let's face it, the way Joe Borrow has been doing

1018
00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,319
Speaker 4: it has led quite a bit of injury. I mean

1019
00:49:06,400 --> 00:49:09,880
Speaker 4: he's been he's been dinged up a lot. Uh and uh,

1020
00:49:09,960 --> 00:49:14,520
Speaker 4: you know, high school, he was just better than everybody

1021
00:49:14,800 --> 00:49:17,960
Speaker 4: physically better. Same same at the collegiate level, although you know,

1022
00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:23,479
Speaker 4: they were physically much more unique at the collegiate level

1023
00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,560
Speaker 4: than at the high school level. And now you face

1024
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:29,080
Speaker 4: the most unique, uh, physical specimens in the in the

1025
00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:33,640
Speaker 4: National Football League, So you know you're advancing and and uh,

1026
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:35,919
Speaker 4: all it takes is one blow.

1027
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:37,120
Speaker 5: One blow and you're out. Man.

1028
00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 4: So you do you have to be judicious. You have

1029
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:42,680
Speaker 4: to be, you know, really thoughtful in how you approach.

1030
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:44,799
Speaker 4: How many hits do I want to take?

1031
00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:45,120
Speaker 5: Man?

1032
00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:47,200
Speaker 4: How much of a beating do I want to take?

1033
00:49:47,239 --> 00:49:49,240
Speaker 4: I want to win games. I want to win games

1034
00:49:49,239 --> 00:49:53,160
Speaker 4: for my teammates. I want to, you know, win division titles.

1035
00:49:53,360 --> 00:49:55,399
Speaker 4: I want to win conference championships. I want to win

1036
00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 4: Super Bowls. But you have to do it judiciously.

1037
00:49:58,520 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 3: Another thought on on Joe Flah and this not tied

1038
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 3: specifically to Joe Burrow, but I think everybody in that

1039
00:50:03,880 --> 00:50:08,799
Speaker 3: locker room. I until he came here, My knowledge of

1040
00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:12,400
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco was simply watching him play and hearing a

1041
00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:14,080
Speaker 3: SoundBite or two maybe every week.

1042
00:50:14,239 --> 00:50:14,399
Speaker 5: Right.

1043
00:50:14,440 --> 00:50:17,640
Speaker 3: The more I listen to Joe Flacco, the more impressive

1044
00:50:17,680 --> 00:50:22,000
Speaker 3: he is from just his big picture understanding and appreciation

1045
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:26,000
Speaker 3: of things there. And I'm not saying he's like the

1046
00:50:26,080 --> 00:50:28,279
Speaker 3: adult in the room or the grandfather in the room,

1047
00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:33,759
Speaker 3: but he just sounds he sounds different than everybody else

1048
00:50:33,800 --> 00:50:36,520
Speaker 3: in this team because he maybe it's just because he's

1049
00:50:36,520 --> 00:50:39,160
Speaker 3: forty and live life longer than anybody else. I just

1050
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:41,839
Speaker 3: find him very reflective and refreshing to hear.

1051
00:50:42,040 --> 00:50:44,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think he's so experienced.

1052
00:50:44,400 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 4: You know, it's like there's not one dynamic in life

1053
00:50:49,320 --> 00:50:52,000
Speaker 4: that he hasn't gone through probably, you know. I mean

1054
00:50:52,040 --> 00:50:56,920
Speaker 4: it's whether it's his family, his football family, whatever the

1055
00:50:56,960 --> 00:50:59,879
Speaker 4: case may be. I mean, I do know in talking

1056
00:50:59,880 --> 00:51:03,480
Speaker 4: to him that the single most important thing to him

1057
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,680
Speaker 4: is his wife and children. And he's got five kids

1058
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:08,879
Speaker 4: and they're raising a beautiful family. He wants to make

1059
00:51:08,920 --> 00:51:11,919
Speaker 4: sure that everything is done right in that regard, doesn't

1060
00:51:11,920 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 4: want to jeopardize anything with respect to that, but he

1061
00:51:15,880 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 4: does know that, you know, football is a good way

1062
00:51:19,160 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 4: to make their life a little bit better, a lot

1063
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:26,040
Speaker 4: better really, And there's economics involved that he's done exceptionally

1064
00:51:26,080 --> 00:51:28,080
Speaker 4: well and he's going to continue to do well, and

1065
00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,960
Speaker 4: his team will, his team, his family will thrive as

1066
00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 4: a result of that. So he is a very mature

1067
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 4: human being. I think he's even mature beyond his years.

1068
00:51:39,960 --> 00:51:44,759
Speaker 4: And Joe Flackell understands life, understands football life, and understands

1069
00:51:44,800 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 4: how they're related.

1070
00:51:46,160 --> 00:51:48,200
Speaker 3: I love the fact he was talking last week about

1071
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,120
Speaker 3: once in his mind he knew he wanted to keep

1072
00:51:51,160 --> 00:51:53,680
Speaker 3: playing and made the commitment mentally to it. You know,

1073
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,640
Speaker 3: things like taking care of your body or understanding situations

1074
00:51:56,640 --> 00:51:59,520
Speaker 3: and how each situation he's been in has helped in

1075
00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:02,120
Speaker 3: the next situation. And maybe it was a place he

1076
00:52:02,120 --> 00:52:04,520
Speaker 3: didn't necessarily want to be, maybe he didn't want to

1077
00:52:04,520 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 3: be the backup, but he used it as a learning

1078
00:52:07,080 --> 00:52:09,839
Speaker 3: experience to get to through it to the next thing.

1079
00:52:10,120 --> 00:52:13,400
Speaker 3: And this is the next thing, and it's it's like,

1080
00:52:13,600 --> 00:52:15,319
Speaker 3: I don't want to say the Fountain of Youth, but

1081
00:52:15,680 --> 00:52:18,000
Speaker 3: I would. There's a lot of juice behind this for

1082
00:52:18,120 --> 00:52:18,800
Speaker 3: him as well.

1083
00:52:18,920 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 4: Absolutely, And how about this question, what tandem or duo

1084
00:52:25,680 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 4: of quarterbacks in the NFL is going to be better

1085
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:30,200
Speaker 4: than Joe Burrow and Joe Flacco. When Joe Burrow is

1086
00:52:30,239 --> 00:52:34,440
Speaker 4: able to come back. Great Joe Flacco as a backup quarterback,

1087
00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:37,680
Speaker 4: I mean, he may be the best backup quarterback in

1088
00:52:37,719 --> 00:52:41,120
Speaker 4: the history of the National Football League, particularly if he play.

1089
00:52:41,200 --> 00:52:43,680
Speaker 4: I mean, he's playing very well right now. And as

1090
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,719
Speaker 4: the weeks go by and he gets more and more

1091
00:52:46,719 --> 00:52:50,920
Speaker 4: familiar with the game plan on a repetition repetition preachs

1092
00:52:51,120 --> 00:52:54,319
Speaker 4: comfort level on a week by week basis, his level

1093
00:52:54,360 --> 00:52:56,399
Speaker 4: of play is going to increase. I mean, he will

1094
00:52:56,400 --> 00:52:58,920
Speaker 4: put up significant numbers. And I'm not saying that Joe

1095
00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:01,480
Speaker 4: Burrow won't get a starting job back, you know, but

1096
00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,480
Speaker 4: when he comes back, it's not gonna be a quarterback controversy.

1097
00:53:04,800 --> 00:53:08,000
Speaker 4: I mean it's gonna be. It's gonna be an embarrassment

1098
00:53:08,040 --> 00:53:10,680
Speaker 4: of riches at the quarterback position, is what it's gonna be.

1099
00:53:11,000 --> 00:53:14,920
Speaker 4: You're gonna have arguably the greatest quarterback in the NFL

1100
00:53:14,960 --> 00:53:17,360
Speaker 4: as a starter, and the greatest backup quarterback in the

1101
00:53:17,480 --> 00:53:18,800
Speaker 4: NFL is your backup quarterback.

1102
00:53:18,840 --> 00:53:21,040
Speaker 2: Can't beat that one too much. Perfect segue.

1103
00:53:21,120 --> 00:53:23,839
Speaker 3: In our next segment, let's talk about perhaps the maybe

1104
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,200
Speaker 3: not even perhaps maybe a given the best wide receiver

1105
00:53:26,239 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 3: in the game.

1106
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:27,040
Speaker 5: What JR.

1107
00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 2: Chase did on Thursday night. Holy cow.

1108
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:32,759
Speaker 3: Let's give him some love and continue conversation along those

1109
00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,760
Speaker 3: lines as we continue with Bengals Line on the Bengals

1110
00:53:35,840 --> 00:53:40,960
Speaker 3: Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. Hey, welcome back to

1111
00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:43,520
Speaker 3: Bengals Line of this Monday night of the Bengals Radio Network.

1112
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:47,440
Speaker 3: In seven hundred WLW, we have sorted through Thursday night

1113
00:53:47,440 --> 00:53:50,480
Speaker 3: against the Pittsburgh Steelers on both sides of the football

1114
00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:53,239
Speaker 3: got into Joe Flacco as well. Let's spend some time

1115
00:53:53,320 --> 00:53:59,440
Speaker 3: on Jamar Chase targeted twenty three times, twenty three targets,

1116
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:03,880
Speaker 3: forty seven pass attempts by Joe Flaccoie hauls in sixteen

1117
00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 3: of those for one hundred and sixty one yards in

1118
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 3: a touchdown, and man I by halftime started the third quarter,

1119
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:12,920
Speaker 3: I thought sure he was gonna.

1120
00:54:12,760 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 2: Get twenty catches.

1121
00:54:13,600 --> 00:54:15,839
Speaker 3: They just kept going to him and going to him,

1122
00:54:15,920 --> 00:54:17,279
Speaker 3: and he just kept catching him.

1123
00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:24,160
Speaker 5: He's unbelievable. And what it showed me these kind of numbers.

1124
00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:27,840
Speaker 4: When you're targeted twenty three times, sixteen catches, one hundred

1125
00:54:27,880 --> 00:54:32,279
Speaker 4: sixty one yards and a touchdown, that is tiring. His

1126
00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:37,359
Speaker 4: physical conditioning is great, point incredible. It's remarkable to do

1127
00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:42,400
Speaker 4: that at the NFL level against you know, great physical specimens.

1128
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,920
Speaker 4: These guys are jamming you, you know, pushing you around,

1129
00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 4: trying to get you off course, double teaming you. You're

1130
00:54:49,000 --> 00:54:52,920
Speaker 4: going through contact, you're sprinting, you're running full speed, and

1131
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:56,319
Speaker 4: then you're breaking it down. That That is tiring, going

1132
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:58,480
Speaker 4: full speed and chopping it down to you know, and

1133
00:54:58,520 --> 00:55:00,880
Speaker 4: then making a cut up, you know, change in direction

1134
00:55:01,360 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 4: off of that. That is man mind boggling for him

1135
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:09,880
Speaker 4: to be as fresh as he was in the fourth quarter.

1136
00:55:10,239 --> 00:55:12,359
Speaker 4: And I didn't notice any difference in him coming off

1137
00:55:12,400 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 4: the line of scrimmage and how he was attacking defensive

1138
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:19,040
Speaker 4: backs in quarter number one or quarter number four, I mean,

1139
00:55:19,640 --> 00:55:23,319
Speaker 4: or any time in between. He is something else. I mean,

1140
00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:25,919
Speaker 4: And then I was watching him. When are you gonna

1141
00:55:25,960 --> 00:55:26,359
Speaker 4: drink water?

1142
00:55:26,440 --> 00:55:26,840
Speaker 2: Dude?

1143
00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:29,680
Speaker 5: I mean, for crying out loud, what are you a machine?

1144
00:55:29,800 --> 00:55:32,319
Speaker 5: Or what are you? It's He'll take like a little

1145
00:55:32,360 --> 00:55:33,440
Speaker 5: simple water here and there.

1146
00:55:33,480 --> 00:55:36,760
Speaker 4: You know. It is just it's unbelievable to watch him

1147
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:39,680
Speaker 4: perform his craft. He is as good at what he

1148
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:44,080
Speaker 4: does as anybody doing anything in the entire world.

1149
00:55:44,200 --> 00:55:48,319
Speaker 3: His his strength in the ability to create yards after

1150
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:52,360
Speaker 3: catch and break tackles. It is I mean, sometimes you

1151
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,680
Speaker 3: think he's not even humid. He's like a robot. He

1152
00:55:54,800 --> 00:55:58,839
Speaker 3: just sheds people who it looks like he's wrapped up

1153
00:55:58,920 --> 00:56:00,600
Speaker 3: and he just breaks that.

1154
00:56:00,600 --> 00:56:02,759
Speaker 2: The strength is just off the charts.

1155
00:56:02,920 --> 00:56:05,520
Speaker 4: I'm a great point again, Lance, I'm wondering of the

1156
00:56:05,520 --> 00:56:08,319
Speaker 4: one hundred and sixty one yards, how many of those

1157
00:56:08,440 --> 00:56:12,120
Speaker 4: are yards after catch, yards after contact? A bunch, I mean,

1158
00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:15,320
Speaker 4: a good a good percentage I bet forty percent anyway

1159
00:56:17,000 --> 00:56:20,319
Speaker 4: that that that is, that's just remarkable and in the

1160
00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,279
Speaker 4: red zone because all the things you're talking about, how

1161
00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 4: strong he is, how physically dominant he is, and the

1162
00:56:26,800 --> 00:56:29,880
Speaker 4: size speed ratio he has the best size speed ratio

1163
00:56:29,960 --> 00:56:32,680
Speaker 4: in the NFL. And you watch him in the weight

1164
00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,759
Speaker 4: room and you watch him power clean weight, you watch

1165
00:56:35,840 --> 00:56:38,839
Speaker 4: him deadlift weight, It's like, what the hell I mean

1166
00:56:38,880 --> 00:56:42,680
Speaker 4: he's stalling weights around that offensive and defensive lineman throw around,

1167
00:56:42,680 --> 00:56:46,120
Speaker 4: and Jamar Chase is just, you know, very casual, nonchalant

1168
00:56:46,120 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 4: about the whole thing. It's like, you know, hey, another

1169
00:56:48,440 --> 00:56:50,200
Speaker 4: day at the office. Here we go. I'm just trying

1170
00:56:50,200 --> 00:56:53,560
Speaker 4: to make myself better. And that that's the thing about

1171
00:56:53,640 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 4: him is he is the ultimate competitor, uber uber competitive.

1172
00:57:00,040 --> 00:57:02,520
Speaker 3: And David, I know he's still early in his career,

1173
00:57:02,560 --> 00:57:05,080
Speaker 3: and I'm not making this as a declaration, but when

1174
00:57:05,080 --> 00:57:08,399
Speaker 3: you think all that this franchise has seen from from

1175
00:57:08,480 --> 00:57:11,440
Speaker 3: Isaac Curtis to Chad Johnson to A. J. Green to

1176
00:57:11,719 --> 00:57:16,520
Speaker 3: to Carl Pickens and all their skill sets, I look

1177
00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:20,280
Speaker 3: at the combined skill set of Jamar Chase and I say,

1178
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:24,480
Speaker 3: you guys are great. Yeah, the one package what Jamar

1179
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:26,160
Speaker 3: is it's hard to comprehend.

1180
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:30,560
Speaker 4: It's totally unique. Yes, I mean it's dynamic, is what

1181
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:34,080
Speaker 4: he what it is. And I think all of those receivers.

1182
00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 4: I've talked to Isaac Curtis about Jamar Chase, He's like, oh, man, dude,

1183
00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 4: he's a freak. There's a freak as a way, you know,

1184
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,760
Speaker 4: it's like his physical specimen.

1185
00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:45,120
Speaker 5: Man.

1186
00:57:45,520 --> 00:57:47,959
Speaker 4: And uh, you know all of them feel that way.

1187
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:52,240
Speaker 4: You know, it's that's universal and that uh that's a

1188
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:56,480
Speaker 4: credit to Jamar Chase. And I think they also like

1189
00:57:56,560 --> 00:58:00,520
Speaker 4: the fact that he doesn't freelance, and he he doesn't

1190
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:03,480
Speaker 4: you know, he's not interested in, you know, having his

1191
00:58:03,600 --> 00:58:08,440
Speaker 4: numbers be the story. He wants the store to be

1192
00:58:08,520 --> 00:58:11,960
Speaker 4: the team one. And then there's a subplot by the way,

1193
00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 4: you know, I had sixteen catches one hundred sixty one

1194
00:58:14,520 --> 00:58:15,360
Speaker 4: yards in a touchdown.

1195
00:58:15,600 --> 00:58:17,160
Speaker 5: He didn't want it to be the other way around.

1196
00:58:18,080 --> 00:58:22,080
Speaker 4: And uh, yeah, he's he is the consummate professional of

1197
00:58:22,080 --> 00:58:23,040
Speaker 4: the consummate teammate.

1198
00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:26,640
Speaker 3: What I really loved on Thursday night and I'm I

1199
00:58:26,720 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 3: love taking what you're given, and that was there. They

1200
00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:31,480
Speaker 3: just kept going to it. Yeah, they kept it was

1201
00:58:31,480 --> 00:58:34,840
Speaker 3: successful and they kept going, and Joe Flacco targeted the

1202
00:58:34,920 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 3: two of them, chasing Higgins thirty seven thirty three times

1203
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:39,960
Speaker 3: between the two of them.

1204
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,440
Speaker 2: But he just kept going to Chase because it was.

1205
00:58:42,440 --> 00:58:45,080
Speaker 3: There, the advantage was there, and he was just rolling

1206
00:58:45,120 --> 00:58:45,880
Speaker 3: and there was no state.

1207
00:58:45,880 --> 00:58:47,880
Speaker 2: He just kept feeding him the ball. And I love that. Yeah,

1208
00:58:47,960 --> 00:58:50,640
Speaker 2: And why not if it's working, keep going to it exactly.

1209
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:53,800
Speaker 5: And I can't I can't believe that. You know that

1210
00:58:53,880 --> 00:58:54,920
Speaker 5: they stayed in the coverage.

1211
00:58:55,320 --> 00:58:58,760
Speaker 4: They didn't said, you know, so Flacco Chase look at

1212
00:58:58,800 --> 00:59:00,680
Speaker 4: each other, gonna keep doing it.

1213
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:01,880
Speaker 2: Here we go.

1214
00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 4: Give you a tip of the cap, you know, a

1215
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:05,760
Speaker 4: little a little non little bow or whatever.

1216
00:59:06,120 --> 00:59:06,400
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1217
00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,400
Speaker 4: I mean, eventually they may come out of it, but

1218
00:59:09,400 --> 00:59:11,560
Speaker 4: it doesn't seem like they're in any hurry, that's for

1219
00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,160
Speaker 4: darn sure. And I think the running game was a

1220
00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:18,120
Speaker 4: factor in that as well. I feel like Tomlin felt

1221
00:59:18,120 --> 00:59:21,720
Speaker 4: like he had to do certain things and commit certain

1222
00:59:21,800 --> 00:59:26,560
Speaker 4: numbers of linebackers and safeties from a personnel standpoint to

1223
00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:30,120
Speaker 4: the running game because Chase Brown was so effective, and you.

1224
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,160
Speaker 5: Know, that's what you want. Man.

1225
00:59:31,280 --> 00:59:34,720
Speaker 4: When you have a balanced attack like that, it makes

1226
00:59:34,800 --> 00:59:37,400
Speaker 4: it almost impossible for a defense to defend. You know,

1227
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:39,760
Speaker 4: you don't want to be one dimensional. You want to

1228
00:59:39,800 --> 00:59:41,840
Speaker 4: be balanced, and the Bengals were the definition of it.

1229
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:42,080
Speaker 2: Boy.

1230
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:45,600
Speaker 3: I remember I laughed because Joe Flacco has mentioned in

1231
00:59:45,640 --> 00:59:48,760
Speaker 3: the last couple of weeks what he's learning about Higgins

1232
00:59:48,760 --> 00:59:50,680
Speaker 3: and Chase and just how darn good they are. And

1233
00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,240
Speaker 3: I think of Flacco's career, and he's had some okay

1234
00:59:53,360 --> 00:59:55,200
Speaker 3: receivers along the way, but I go back to Week

1235
00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 3: one with the Browns where he had a couple of

1236
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:59,880
Speaker 3: his passes the receivers bobbled and they turned into interceptions.

1237
01:00:00,160 --> 01:00:02,400
Speaker 3: And to think of where Flacco was at one point

1238
01:00:02,400 --> 01:00:04,680
Speaker 3: in his career to now being able to throw to

1239
01:00:04,760 --> 01:00:06,920
Speaker 3: Chase in Higgins. I mean, Joe Flacco's got to go

1240
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 3: home every night and tell his wife.

1241
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 2: You want I mean, this is heaven.

1242
01:00:10,640 --> 01:00:12,680
Speaker 4: I've got two of the best of the game catch

1243
01:00:12,720 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 4: of my passes exactly. I think he probably goes to

1244
01:00:16,120 --> 01:00:19,240
Speaker 4: Holmes Her and says, honey, now I know what football

1245
01:00:19,280 --> 01:00:22,520
Speaker 4: heaven is. You know the football gods. I know there

1246
01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,840
Speaker 4: are football gods now. I wasn't sure for a while,

1247
01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,720
Speaker 4: and I know there are now because they've they've really

1248
01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 4: blessed me man and I have got a couple of

1249
01:00:30,640 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 4: studs that I'm able to compete with and throw the

1250
01:00:34,280 --> 01:00:37,240
Speaker 4: football to on a weekly basis, And man, it's like

1251
01:00:37,520 --> 01:00:40,000
Speaker 4: I just can't wait. I can't wait for the game plans.

1252
01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:42,800
Speaker 4: I got coaching staff that knows what the hell they're doing,

1253
01:00:42,880 --> 01:00:45,960
Speaker 4: Zach Taylor, Dan Pitcher, and I got receivers that can

1254
01:00:46,280 --> 01:00:46,880
Speaker 4: execute it.

1255
01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 5: And man, I am in hog Heaven.

1256
01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,800
Speaker 3: Take a time out of continue. Let's flip back to

1257
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:55,400
Speaker 3: the defensive side of things, because I must. We must

1258
01:00:55,440 --> 01:00:59,400
Speaker 3: address why why is tackling so hard in the NFL

1259
01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:01,960
Speaker 3: these days? Why are there so many miss tackles. Let's

1260
01:01:02,160 --> 01:01:04,720
Speaker 3: get into that. We'll do an extensive study of tackling

1261
01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:08,080
Speaker 3: as we continue. It's Bengals Line on the Bengals Radio

1262
01:01:08,080 --> 01:01:13,000
Speaker 3: Network in seven hundred WLW. Let's keep rolling right along

1263
01:01:13,040 --> 01:01:15,360
Speaker 3: and this Monday night, working our way through three hours

1264
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:19,440
Speaker 3: of Bengals conversation and eventually into Jets conversation. The opponent

1265
01:01:19,960 --> 01:01:23,040
Speaker 3: on Sunday at pay Corpse Stadium, I'm alliance, Butacallister, he

1266
01:01:23,240 --> 01:01:28,080
Speaker 3: is Dave Lapham. We talked about the defense and the

1267
01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,840
Speaker 3: takeaways on Thursday night. There continues to be the thread

1268
01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:35,240
Speaker 3: of the issue of tackling. And it's not just the

1269
01:01:35,280 --> 01:01:38,440
Speaker 3: Bengals around it's amazing around the NFL how many misstackles

1270
01:01:38,480 --> 01:01:42,240
Speaker 3: there are. I haven't seen an official number from Thursday night,

1271
01:01:42,280 --> 01:01:43,959
Speaker 3: there was a rather large number from.

1272
01:01:43,880 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 4: The week before.

1273
01:01:47,160 --> 01:01:49,480
Speaker 3: Why let me ask it this way, if you're a

1274
01:01:49,520 --> 01:01:52,280
Speaker 3: poor tackling team, how do you make Is there a

1275
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 3: way to make yourself a better tackling team.

1276
01:01:55,480 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 4: I think that in today's football coaches, head coaches, coordinators,

1277
01:02:01,120 --> 01:02:05,400
Speaker 4: they're hesitant about doing routine tackling drills because of the

1278
01:02:05,520 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 4: possibility of injury. Yep, they are so scared that they're

1279
01:02:09,160 --> 01:02:12,720
Speaker 4: gonna lose, fearful of losing one of their star players,

1280
01:02:13,120 --> 01:02:16,840
Speaker 4: you know, in a routine tackling drill where it's like,

1281
01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,439
Speaker 4: I mean, I remember Paul Brown. We didn't hit all

1282
01:02:21,480 --> 01:02:25,919
Speaker 4: that much in practice until we did team work, and

1283
01:02:26,160 --> 01:02:28,880
Speaker 4: his whole thing was, I don't want to lose you know,

1284
01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 4: Kenny Anderson and Isaac Curtis or Bob Trump or whatever

1285
01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:36,480
Speaker 4: in a you know, a stupid, you know, routine tackling drill.

1286
01:02:37,040 --> 01:02:41,000
Speaker 4: So there's I think there's that side of it. The

1287
01:02:41,080 --> 01:02:43,160
Speaker 4: other side of it is I just I just think

1288
01:02:43,200 --> 01:02:46,560
Speaker 4: that these offensive players are so damn good. I mean,

1289
01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,240
Speaker 4: the size speed ratio of these guys. These guys are

1290
01:02:49,560 --> 01:02:53,080
Speaker 4: big people that can really run and pack a hell

1291
01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:56,400
Speaker 4: of a punch. So they will they'll just they'll take contact.

1292
01:02:57,040 --> 01:02:58,200
Speaker 4: That's no big deal.

1293
01:02:58,520 --> 01:02:59,120
Speaker 5: I can handle.

1294
01:02:59,160 --> 01:02:59,240
Speaker 8: That.

1295
01:02:59,400 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 5: Is that all you get? Why don't you?

1296
01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:03,479
Speaker 2: Why don't you try to try to try it again?

1297
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:04,680
Speaker 2: You know, let's take another rep.

1298
01:03:05,880 --> 01:03:10,400
Speaker 4: And it's it's amazing to watch, even watching practice, the

1299
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:12,320
Speaker 4: way these guys can run through tackles.

1300
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:14,520
Speaker 5: And Chase Brown is a great example.

1301
01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:18,120
Speaker 4: I mean, he's he's five ten and twenty pounds, low

1302
01:03:18,200 --> 01:03:21,600
Speaker 4: center of gravity, and man, when he when he lowers

1303
01:03:21,640 --> 01:03:24,480
Speaker 4: his pads and finishes a run when they're doing like

1304
01:03:24,560 --> 01:03:27,880
Speaker 4: live goal line and short Yardie Wills, he's something else.

1305
01:03:28,040 --> 01:03:30,120
Speaker 5: I mean, he's he's he'll he'll.

1306
01:03:29,920 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 4: Pack a punch, there's a surge there, and then he's

1307
01:03:34,240 --> 01:03:36,480
Speaker 4: an excellent blitz pickup guy to stick his nose right

1308
01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:38,720
Speaker 4: in the chest of linebackers and you know, have a

1309
01:03:38,960 --> 01:03:41,680
Speaker 4: ben his knees, have a real low, low center of gravity,

1310
01:03:41,680 --> 01:03:45,480
Speaker 4: low body, good receiver out of the backfield catching the

1311
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:50,520
Speaker 4: ball and then you know, breaking tackles there. It's it's crazy,

1312
01:03:50,560 --> 01:03:55,480
Speaker 4: you know, Uh, I just I just think that tackling

1313
01:03:55,520 --> 01:03:59,080
Speaker 4: form is terrible in the National Football League these days.

1314
01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:01,360
Speaker 4: I think it's a lost I think that they should

1315
01:04:01,400 --> 01:04:05,720
Speaker 4: go back to football fundamentals basically, and uh.

1316
01:04:05,360 --> 01:04:07,720
Speaker 3: And so much of a day, it seems today has

1317
01:04:07,760 --> 01:04:11,880
Speaker 3: become the idea of knocking the ball loose, you know,

1318
01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:14,800
Speaker 3: going for the football, which is is great in theory

1319
01:04:15,040 --> 01:04:17,600
Speaker 3: because everybody wants a turnover to get the ball back, right,

1320
01:04:17,680 --> 01:04:20,640
Speaker 3: but some of the time it's it's sacrificing yardage because

1321
01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:22,800
Speaker 3: you're not popping it loose and you're not making the

1322
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:24,040
Speaker 3: tackle and wrapping the guy up.

1323
01:04:24,200 --> 01:04:26,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, if everybody's going for the kill, hyes, everybody's also

1324
01:04:26,920 --> 01:04:29,400
Speaker 4: the big play. Yep, they're like, oh my god, look

1325
01:04:29,440 --> 01:04:33,240
Speaker 4: at that play. You know, and uh, if if in

1326
01:04:33,280 --> 01:04:35,520
Speaker 4: fact you can do that during the course of action,

1327
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:38,920
Speaker 4: you know, as the play is finalizing and you and

1328
01:04:39,240 --> 01:04:41,600
Speaker 4: you can you can take a shot at the football,

1329
01:04:42,200 --> 01:04:44,360
Speaker 4: you know, probably smart to do. So You've got to

1330
01:04:44,400 --> 01:04:46,960
Speaker 4: make sure though that you're not the only guy. You're

1331
01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,480
Speaker 4: not in space one on one. There's got to be

1332
01:04:49,520 --> 01:04:51,480
Speaker 4: teammates around there that if you you know, if you

1333
01:04:51,560 --> 01:04:53,760
Speaker 4: if it doesn't work, you don't knock it loose, you

1334
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:56,120
Speaker 4: don't jar the football out of there, somebody else is

1335
01:04:56,160 --> 01:04:57,720
Speaker 4: going to be there to clean up and get somebody

1336
01:04:57,720 --> 01:04:58,160
Speaker 4: on the ground.

1337
01:04:58,680 --> 01:05:02,000
Speaker 3: One other aspect of this defense and it'll help, hopefully

1338
01:05:02,000 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 3: if Trey's back this week.

1339
01:05:03,760 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 2: They've got to get pressure on the court.

1340
01:05:05,760 --> 01:05:08,120
Speaker 3: Watching Aaron Rodgers, there was there was a lot of

1341
01:05:08,600 --> 01:05:12,160
Speaker 3: three four and five Mississippis I was counting on Thursday

1342
01:05:12,240 --> 01:05:13,840
Speaker 3: night where he was free. I mean, I think the

1343
01:05:13,880 --> 01:05:16,400
Speaker 3: one officially he rolled out of the pocket and had

1344
01:05:16,560 --> 01:05:20,320
Speaker 3: nine point eight seconds to throw, and you could give me,

1345
01:05:20,400 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 3: if you give me nine point eight second, I might

1346
01:05:22,160 --> 01:05:23,920
Speaker 3: be able to complay to pass. In the NFL, it

1347
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:26,520
Speaker 3: was maddening how little pressure they were able to get.

1348
01:05:26,640 --> 01:05:30,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, and trying to be I think what the defensive

1349
01:05:30,480 --> 01:05:32,760
Speaker 4: backs were thinking when they running round back. Can't imagine

1350
01:05:32,920 --> 01:05:35,240
Speaker 4: nine at ten secs, Like, come on boys, where are

1351
01:05:35,280 --> 01:05:39,439
Speaker 4: you guys? I mean, let's let's get the troops going here.

1352
01:05:39,480 --> 01:05:42,320
Speaker 4: How about getting after it a little bit. You can't

1353
01:05:42,360 --> 01:05:45,680
Speaker 4: cover receivers that long. They're two gifted, too talented in

1354
01:05:45,760 --> 01:05:49,440
Speaker 4: today's National Football League, So uh yeah, that that's something

1355
01:05:49,440 --> 01:05:52,160
Speaker 4: that needs to be addressed as well. The pass rush

1356
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,960
Speaker 4: has not been what al golden wants, particularly when Trey

1357
01:05:55,960 --> 01:06:00,320
Speaker 4: Henderson out of the mix. I mean it was was

1358
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,200
Speaker 4: not what what you what you need, not what you

1359
01:06:03,640 --> 01:06:05,560
Speaker 4: have to have to win football games.

1360
01:06:05,600 --> 01:06:06,600
Speaker 5: And I don't think it's shocking.

1361
01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:09,520
Speaker 4: Everybody knows Train is the best pass rusher the Bengals

1362
01:06:09,600 --> 01:06:12,480
Speaker 4: have maybe the best in the National Football League. But

1363
01:06:12,600 --> 01:06:15,000
Speaker 4: without him, they looked very pedestrian.

1364
01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:17,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you could understand a little Schamarz Stewart hadn't

1365
01:06:17,920 --> 01:06:20,680
Speaker 3: played in almost a month, four weeks at the ankle.

1366
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:25,920
Speaker 3: But Miles Murphy, Joseph Osai, there's gotta it's gotta be.

1367
01:06:26,040 --> 01:06:28,120
Speaker 3: It always goes back to you can count on Trey

1368
01:06:28,160 --> 01:06:31,280
Speaker 3: when he's in there, You've got to have somebody else

1369
01:06:31,560 --> 01:06:35,560
Speaker 3: who's a presence to attract some attention and create some pressures.

1370
01:06:35,640 --> 01:06:39,400
Speaker 4: Absolutely. I mean you can't have everybody up and down

1371
01:06:39,440 --> 01:06:43,400
Speaker 4: the defensive line like ooh almost, Oh you almost got him,

1372
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:44,960
Speaker 4: you almost made that play.

1373
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:47,080
Speaker 5: Nah, gotta have Oh.

1374
01:06:47,000 --> 01:06:49,840
Speaker 4: Look at that dude, finish, look at the hit that

1375
01:06:49,920 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 4: he put on him.

1376
01:06:50,720 --> 01:06:52,400
Speaker 5: And they have guys that can do it.

1377
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:55,080
Speaker 4: I mean the guys you rotted off there, you know, Murphy,

1378
01:06:55,080 --> 01:06:58,800
Speaker 4: o Sai and everybody else. Those guys need to step up,

1379
01:06:58,920 --> 01:07:03,960
Speaker 4: and stud they need to step up now, not later now.

1380
01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:04,680
Speaker 2: When we come back.

1381
01:07:05,360 --> 01:07:07,680
Speaker 3: One other thing that jumped out on Thursday night was

1382
01:07:07,720 --> 01:07:11,280
Speaker 3: the number of explosive plays. This Bengals offense had a lot,

1383
01:07:11,320 --> 01:07:14,040
Speaker 3: I mean big chunk plays, thirty seven, thirty seven and more.

1384
01:07:14,160 --> 01:07:16,240
Speaker 3: Let's talk about that and what it means for this offense.

1385
01:07:16,320 --> 01:07:18,800
Speaker 3: They've been able to produce those big plays. As we

1386
01:07:18,880 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 3: head down the stretch in our second hour tonight, it's

1387
01:07:21,520 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 3: Bengals Line of the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. Hey,

1388
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:30,680
Speaker 3: we're back at it on this Monday night, sorting through

1389
01:07:30,920 --> 01:07:32,920
Speaker 3: everything related to the Bengals from the way over the

1390
01:07:32,960 --> 01:07:35,560
Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Steelers, looking ahead to the New York Jets coming

1391
01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:37,400
Speaker 3: up in our third hour tonight, and Dave, one thing

1392
01:07:37,440 --> 01:07:40,120
Speaker 3: that stood out on Thursday night if you look at

1393
01:07:40,680 --> 01:07:44,280
Speaker 3: the big plays, chunk plays even down to if you

1394
01:07:44,320 --> 01:07:47,160
Speaker 3: look at just plays to gain fifteen yards or more,

1395
01:07:47,280 --> 01:07:50,160
Speaker 3: Bengals had ten of those on Thursday night. They had

1396
01:07:50,200 --> 01:07:53,439
Speaker 3: thirty seven, thirty seven yards, twenty nine yards, twenty eight,

1397
01:07:53,520 --> 01:07:55,160
Speaker 3: twenty seven, twenty five.

1398
01:07:55,040 --> 01:07:57,520
Speaker 2: Eighteen, eighteen, sixteen, fifteen.

1399
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:00,000
Speaker 3: That's the type of stuff, man, when your offense is,

1400
01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:02,520
Speaker 3: and you can get big plays and don't have to

1401
01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:05,360
Speaker 3: plod your way down the field with extended drives or

1402
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:08,480
Speaker 3: things can go wrong. Those chunk plays are huge for

1403
01:08:08,520 --> 01:08:09,160
Speaker 3: this offense.

1404
01:08:09,240 --> 01:08:14,360
Speaker 4: They are I mean explosive plays, big plays are they

1405
01:08:14,520 --> 01:08:19,800
Speaker 4: They lift the spirits offensively and they absolutely crush and

1406
01:08:19,840 --> 01:08:23,720
Speaker 4: demoralize the defense. I mean, that was one thing that

1407
01:08:23,760 --> 01:08:26,360
Speaker 4: Paul Brown used to talk about all the time. Uh,

1408
01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:29,000
Speaker 4: you know, winning the turnover battle, winning third down winning,

1409
01:08:29,240 --> 01:08:32,800
Speaker 4: but winning the chunk plays. The big plays make more

1410
01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:35,280
Speaker 4: big plays than the opponent because they are the ones

1411
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:40,280
Speaker 4: that are demoralizing. And uh, you know, if you've got

1412
01:08:40,680 --> 01:08:43,599
Speaker 4: players like we had Isaac Curtis, the guy could make

1413
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,320
Speaker 4: a big play in his sleep. You know, Kenny Anderson

1414
01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:48,240
Speaker 4: to Isaac Curtis. I heard it over and over again

1415
01:08:48,280 --> 01:08:52,200
Speaker 4: many times. There it is Kenny Anderson, Isaac Curtis, big play,

1416
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,679
Speaker 4: Bengals lead, and Bengal's not gonna give the lead back.

1417
01:08:56,120 --> 01:08:59,160
Speaker 4: That's that's what you know. Joe Burrow has done with

1418
01:08:59,240 --> 01:09:02,080
Speaker 4: Jamar Chase. But Joe Flacco is already finding out that

1419
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:05,200
Speaker 4: he can do with Jamar Chase and Tee Higgins isn't

1420
01:09:05,479 --> 01:09:08,679
Speaker 4: a bad plan. B I mean He's a significant big

1421
01:09:08,680 --> 01:09:12,040
Speaker 4: playmaker himself, and his is a little bit his stature

1422
01:09:12,080 --> 01:09:15,599
Speaker 4: is a little bit different, a little bit taller, longer arms,

1423
01:09:16,240 --> 01:09:19,040
Speaker 4: can tested catch when he gets, when he goes up

1424
01:09:19,080 --> 01:09:21,760
Speaker 4: and fights for the football, that dude comes down with

1425
01:09:21,800 --> 01:09:24,400
Speaker 4: it a higher percent of the time than almost any

1426
01:09:24,439 --> 01:09:25,439
Speaker 4: receiver I've ever seen.

1427
01:09:25,479 --> 01:09:26,320
Speaker 5: He is remarkable.

1428
01:09:26,720 --> 01:09:27,080
Speaker 2: It is.

1429
01:09:27,720 --> 01:09:31,680
Speaker 3: It's amazing to look. In Week one against Cleveland, the

1430
01:09:31,720 --> 01:09:35,599
Speaker 3: Bengals had one play that gained at least fifteen yards

1431
01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:37,639
Speaker 3: one Thursday night.

1432
01:09:37,720 --> 01:09:38,559
Speaker 2: They had ten.

1433
01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:42,280
Speaker 3: Against Denver, they only had two plays of fifteen yards.

1434
01:09:42,320 --> 01:09:45,920
Speaker 3: Against Minnesota, they only had three plays of fifteen yards.

1435
01:09:46,200 --> 01:09:47,160
Speaker 2: It just makes it.

1436
01:09:47,200 --> 01:09:50,440
Speaker 3: I mean, there's something to be said for long, extended

1437
01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,640
Speaker 3: drives that killed time on the clock. You get the

1438
01:09:52,640 --> 01:09:54,800
Speaker 3: time of possession, wear a team down. But if you

1439
01:09:54,840 --> 01:09:58,080
Speaker 3: can strike with big plays chunk toss in chunk plays

1440
01:09:58,080 --> 01:09:59,000
Speaker 3: along the way, it.

1441
01:09:59,000 --> 01:10:01,360
Speaker 2: Just makes it so much. I mean, from play caller

1442
01:10:01,360 --> 01:10:02,759
Speaker 2: to quarterback and everybody else.

1443
01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:07,280
Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely, And you don't think Mike Tomlin was pulling

1444
01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,320
Speaker 4: his hair out by the roots and Pittsburgh gave up

1445
01:10:10,360 --> 01:10:13,040
Speaker 4: ten plays of fifteen years or more. That is so

1446
01:10:13,960 --> 01:10:18,320
Speaker 4: unlike a Mike Tomlin defensive football team, a Pittsburgh Steeler

1447
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:21,000
Speaker 4: football team as well. I mean, I remember back in

1448
01:10:21,040 --> 01:10:24,080
Speaker 4: the day, boy, when we were playing the steel cartin

1449
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:30,200
Speaker 4: at three River Stadium in Pittsburgh. In instance of home

1450
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:32,760
Speaker 4: or away, it didn't matter. These guys brought it. Man

1451
01:10:32,960 --> 01:10:38,679
Speaker 4: and Joe Green Fats Homes, Ernie Fats Homes, Elsie Greenwood,

1452
01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:44,519
Speaker 4: Dwight White, Jack, Lambert Jack Ham, Andy Russell. I mean

1453
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:51,559
Speaker 4: those Historically, the Rooney family has loved a defense and

1454
01:10:51,640 --> 01:10:58,280
Speaker 4: running game. They've always always had had that first and foremost.

1455
01:10:58,520 --> 01:11:00,439
Speaker 4: And then once you get the running game going and

1456
01:11:00,479 --> 01:11:03,680
Speaker 4: plays good solid defense, quarterback takes over and closes the

1457
01:11:03,720 --> 01:11:04,120
Speaker 4: game out.

1458
01:11:04,240 --> 01:11:04,400
Speaker 2: You know.

1459
01:11:04,520 --> 01:11:06,439
Speaker 3: A final thought on the segment, and you mentioned T,

1460
01:11:07,360 --> 01:11:10,040
Speaker 3: how about some credit to T and even Zach who

1461
01:11:10,120 --> 01:11:12,960
Speaker 3: kind of gave the heads up if the opportunity opened.

1462
01:11:13,120 --> 01:11:15,919
Speaker 3: It was a big play. But T goes into the slide,

1463
01:11:16,360 --> 01:11:18,960
Speaker 3: forcing the Steelers to burn the clock and taking away

1464
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:20,960
Speaker 3: seconds from Aaron Rodgers being on the field.

1465
01:11:21,000 --> 01:11:23,080
Speaker 5: What a heads up play, heads up, big time.

1466
01:11:23,200 --> 01:11:27,879
Speaker 4: I mean, that's that's just you know, high football IQ

1467
01:11:28,840 --> 01:11:32,839
Speaker 4: by Zach Taylor and Dan Pitcher. Not surprised there, obviously,

1468
01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 4: they lecture their team on that type of thing, and

1469
01:11:37,400 --> 01:11:41,719
Speaker 4: in that type of situation, particularly final two minutes, final minute,

1470
01:11:41,960 --> 01:11:44,639
Speaker 4: final thirty seconds of the half of a game. And

1471
01:11:44,960 --> 01:11:49,519
Speaker 4: T Higgins followed suit perfectly, and you know what, very unselfish. Yeah,

1472
01:11:49,640 --> 01:11:52,240
Speaker 4: I mean, he could have had an easy touchdown, but

1473
01:11:52,360 --> 01:11:55,080
Speaker 4: instead it's like, it's more important to me that we

1474
01:11:55,160 --> 01:11:58,240
Speaker 4: win the football game than I get that touchdown.

1475
01:11:58,240 --> 01:12:01,320
Speaker 3: Reception probably made some fantasy team owners unhappy.

1476
01:12:01,840 --> 01:12:04,160
Speaker 2: They'll have to live with you if you had t

1477
01:12:04,280 --> 01:12:06,400
Speaker 2: and your TV. You're thinking, I'm gonna score a touchdown.

1478
01:12:06,439 --> 01:12:09,200
Speaker 2: Wait a minute, why you're doing what? I've lost my

1479
01:12:09,479 --> 01:12:11,679
Speaker 2: I've lost my game because T Higgins went.

1480
01:12:11,600 --> 01:12:12,520
Speaker 5: Into a slide.

1481
01:12:13,400 --> 01:12:15,240
Speaker 3: All right, we put two in the book, so when

1482
01:12:15,240 --> 01:12:17,519
Speaker 3: we turn into our number three. I don't know if

1483
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:20,800
Speaker 3: anybody in this room is aware, but Sunday is is

1484
01:12:20,920 --> 01:12:23,479
Speaker 3: ring of honor. I might have to ask you about

1485
01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:25,680
Speaker 3: Lamar Parrish when we come back, and I might have

1486
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:27,720
Speaker 3: to ask you about you at some point we come

1487
01:12:27,760 --> 01:12:29,360
Speaker 3: back and we do. Are you prepared to do all that?

1488
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:35,959
Speaker 3: I'm prepared for Lamorrow. He's Dave's Pacallister. It's a Bengals

1504
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:30,080
Speaker 3: never got to see Lamara Parrish play, paint a picture.

1505
01:13:30,160 --> 01:13:32,240
Speaker 3: Tell everybody about Lamar Parrish.

1506
01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:36,040
Speaker 4: Lamar Parish number twenty in year program for the Cincinnati Bengals,

1507
01:13:36,120 --> 01:13:40,280
Speaker 4: Number one in your heart. He was maybe the greatest

1508
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,400
Speaker 4: athlete I've ever seen from on a football field. You

1509
01:13:43,439 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 4: see great athletes in basketball, you know, with the jumping

1510
01:13:46,040 --> 01:13:49,559
Speaker 4: ability and windmill dunks and you know, three sixty dunks

1511
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:50,680
Speaker 4: and all that sort of thing.

1512
01:13:50,720 --> 01:13:51,960
Speaker 5: Lamar Parish could do all that.

1513
01:13:52,280 --> 01:13:54,240
Speaker 4: When we were playing Bengals basketball, he put on a

1514
01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:57,200
Speaker 4: dunk show, There's no question about that. In the offseason.

1515
01:13:57,640 --> 01:14:02,240
Speaker 4: But this guy long hollered than the average cornerback, very

1516
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:06,639
Speaker 4: long arms, and he could he could cover ground. Boy,

1517
01:14:06,680 --> 01:14:09,759
Speaker 4: he could close on a on a route so quickly

1518
01:14:10,479 --> 01:14:12,839
Speaker 4: quarterback would think, yeah, I got got a little separation,

1519
01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,920
Speaker 4: got some disc I can fire that in there. Nope,

1520
01:14:16,120 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 4: and the balls in the air and all of a

1521
01:14:17,320 --> 01:14:19,519
Speaker 4: sudden the courts back, Damn, I shouldn't have thrown that one.

1522
01:14:19,920 --> 01:14:25,120
Speaker 4: And Lamar would make big plays, not just picking the

1523
01:14:25,120 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 4: ball off but returning it.

1524
01:14:26,680 --> 01:14:26,720
Speaker 5: No.

1525
01:14:26,880 --> 01:14:30,960
Speaker 4: He I don't know what his average yards per interception

1526
01:14:31,120 --> 01:14:34,600
Speaker 4: return might be, but I bet if they keep this

1527
01:14:34,720 --> 01:14:37,400
Speaker 4: stat in the Pro Football Hall of Fame or wherever,

1528
01:14:38,040 --> 01:14:39,880
Speaker 4: he's got to be in the top five in the league.

1529
01:14:39,920 --> 01:14:43,000
Speaker 4: I mean, he never just intercepted the ball and fell

1530
01:14:43,040 --> 01:14:45,680
Speaker 4: down on the ground, you know, or or let the

1531
01:14:45,720 --> 01:14:46,439
Speaker 4: guy tackle him.

1532
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:47,360
Speaker 5: Lamar was strong.

1533
01:14:47,439 --> 01:14:51,080
Speaker 4: He was a very strong player, very physically gifted. And

1534
01:14:51,120 --> 01:14:55,120
Speaker 4: then that's not to even talk about yet his return abilities.

1535
01:14:55,200 --> 01:14:58,200
Speaker 4: I mean, as a point returner, kickoff returner, the best

1536
01:14:58,280 --> 01:15:02,080
Speaker 4: I've ever seen, bar none. I don't care. People can

1537
01:15:02,120 --> 01:15:04,519
Speaker 4: try to sell me on whoever else. You know, I

1538
01:15:04,560 --> 01:15:07,080
Speaker 4: know there were some great ones, but this guy who

1539
01:15:07,840 --> 01:15:12,000
Speaker 4: as a teammate, he just made so many big plays

1540
01:15:12,000 --> 01:15:13,600
Speaker 4: for us in then.

1541
01:15:13,600 --> 01:15:16,960
Speaker 3: In nineteen seventy four, Dabe he led the league averaging

1542
01:15:17,080 --> 01:15:19,639
Speaker 3: eighteen point eight yards per punt return.

1543
01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:23,240
Speaker 4: That's unbelievable. That is sick, it really is. I mean,

1544
01:15:23,479 --> 01:15:26,800
Speaker 4: if you average, you know, ten yards less than that. Yes,

1545
01:15:26,880 --> 01:15:31,280
Speaker 4: a damn good Yes, yes you're talking about I mean that.

1546
01:15:31,400 --> 01:15:33,559
Speaker 4: See what they should do is take every punt return

1547
01:15:33,600 --> 01:15:37,719
Speaker 4: from that year and put it in a little tape,

1548
01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:40,120
Speaker 4: send it to Canton and put it in the Hall

1549
01:15:40,120 --> 01:15:43,360
Speaker 4: of Fame and have people say, Okay, this is a

1550
01:15:43,360 --> 01:15:45,960
Speaker 4: punt returner, best example of a punt returner.

1551
01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:48,439
Speaker 5: This is Lamar Parrish. This is what he did.

1552
01:15:48,479 --> 01:15:51,080
Speaker 4: This is every return he had, you know, in nineteen

1553
01:15:51,200 --> 01:15:53,040
Speaker 4: seventy four for the Cincinnati Bengals.

1554
01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:54,840
Speaker 5: Take a look and see what you think.

1555
01:15:55,320 --> 01:15:57,920
Speaker 2: Unbelievable and hard to fathom.

1556
01:15:58,439 --> 01:16:02,599
Speaker 3: We're talking thirteen non offensive touchdowns in his career from

1557
01:16:02,680 --> 01:16:03,280
Speaker 3: kick returns.

1558
01:16:03,280 --> 01:16:04,960
Speaker 2: To punt returns, to fumble returns, the.

1559
01:16:04,960 --> 01:16:08,920
Speaker 3: Interception returns, thirteen touchdowns from a defensive player.

1560
01:16:09,200 --> 01:16:12,519
Speaker 4: Unbelievable, crazy, crazy, And I remember one time Paul Brown

1561
01:16:13,840 --> 01:16:15,880
Speaker 4: used him on to reverse because I mean, you know

1562
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:19,120
Speaker 4: what not yeah, you get Isaac Curtis and put Lamar

1563
01:16:19,160 --> 01:16:21,400
Speaker 4: Parris in there. It's like whoa you know, I mean,

1564
01:16:21,439 --> 01:16:23,240
Speaker 4: Charlie Jordan is a great receiver, it just didn't have

1565
01:16:23,280 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 4: that kind of that kind of foot speed. But I

1566
01:16:25,320 --> 01:16:28,920
Speaker 4: mean Lamar Parris was a difference maker in every sense

1567
01:16:28,920 --> 01:16:32,880
Speaker 4: of the word at the at the cornerback position and

1568
01:16:33,280 --> 01:16:37,360
Speaker 4: tremendous versatility, could do a lot of things. He also

1569
01:16:37,479 --> 01:16:39,719
Speaker 4: he played the run. People don't give him enough credit.

1570
01:16:39,800 --> 01:16:43,400
Speaker 4: I don't think for how he could tackle in space

1571
01:16:43,439 --> 01:16:45,960
Speaker 4: because he such an athlete. A lot of times, you know,

1572
01:16:46,000 --> 01:16:48,479
Speaker 4: it's like you're looking back, would be in space and

1573
01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:53,040
Speaker 4: talented running back and it's like, oh it's Lamar. Were

1574
01:16:53,080 --> 01:16:55,639
Speaker 4: good went on and Lamar get him on the ground.

1575
01:16:56,160 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 4: He was gifted and ten total team player.

1576
01:17:01,800 --> 01:17:03,720
Speaker 5: He was special. Lamar Parrish A.

1577
01:17:03,680 --> 01:17:06,719
Speaker 3: Couple of things that point to won his athletic ability

1578
01:17:06,840 --> 01:17:10,160
Speaker 3: and to Paul Brown's eye for talent. He's a seventh

1579
01:17:10,280 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 3: round draft pick out of Lincoln University in nineteen seventy

1580
01:17:13,680 --> 01:17:16,960
Speaker 3: had never played the cornerback position and goes on to

1581
01:17:17,000 --> 01:17:20,240
Speaker 3: do what he does, his ability to adjust to whatever,

1582
01:17:20,439 --> 01:17:23,960
Speaker 3: and Paul's eye for I think I'm gonna make him

1583
01:17:24,439 --> 01:17:26,880
Speaker 3: this it's I mean, that's Paul Brown, it is.

1584
01:17:27,000 --> 01:17:31,760
Speaker 4: And and Paul would part of his evaluation process was

1585
01:17:32,200 --> 01:17:35,080
Speaker 4: he would give, like I was, I was involved with

1586
01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:37,719
Speaker 4: it when I was at Syracuse, give you a written test.

1587
01:17:37,840 --> 01:17:40,040
Speaker 4: And it was all kinds of stuff, all kinds of

1588
01:17:40,120 --> 01:17:42,840
Speaker 4: It was almost like a you know, an sat yeah

1589
01:17:42,920 --> 01:17:44,920
Speaker 4: type test, not anywhere near that long, you know, a

1590
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:47,479
Speaker 4: lot shorter, fewer questions and all that sort of thing,

1591
01:17:47,520 --> 01:17:50,240
Speaker 4: but it was it was pretty expansive in terms of

1592
01:17:50,280 --> 01:17:55,719
Speaker 4: you know, you know, history and math and whatever else English.

1593
01:17:55,760 --> 01:17:58,759
Speaker 4: You know, he wanted base intelligence and then he wanted

1594
01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:00,559
Speaker 4: to talk to the coaches.

1595
01:18:00,800 --> 01:18:03,040
Speaker 3: It was after beating the Browns, if I remember correct,

1596
01:18:03,240 --> 01:18:04,680
Speaker 3: he was a little bit happy.

1597

1672
01:21:21,400 --> 01:21:24,040
Speaker 3: you reflect back on your playing career, you were most

1673
01:21:24,080 --> 01:21:27,360
Speaker 3: proud of how versatile you were for your football team.

1674
01:21:27,560 --> 01:21:30,960
Speaker 4: That's that's the Yeah, that's the probably the number one

1675
01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:35,120
Speaker 4: and only thing probably that that I would distinguish me

1676
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:38,040
Speaker 4: from anybody else would be the fact that played, you know,

1677
01:21:38,080 --> 01:21:40,479
Speaker 4: all five positions in the offensive line and did it,

1678
01:21:40,960 --> 01:21:43,320
Speaker 4: uh in one game, two different times in one year

1679
01:21:43,400 --> 01:21:46,040
Speaker 4: or so. That was that was always. That was an

1680
01:21:46,080 --> 01:21:46,800
Speaker 4: amazing thing.

1681
01:21:47,240 --> 01:21:50,680
Speaker 3: And uh, I still I mean you say that, I

1682
01:21:50,680 --> 01:21:54,160
Speaker 3: hope that hits people. Is what you just said. Take

1683
01:21:54,200 --> 01:21:59,920
Speaker 3: me through how it unfolded that you not not five

1684
01:22:00,040 --> 01:22:02,400
Speaker 3: times in different spots in one season, you did it

1685
01:22:02,479 --> 01:22:03,479
Speaker 3: in one game.

1686
01:22:03,640 --> 01:22:04,479
Speaker 2: What was that like?

1687
01:22:04,720 --> 01:22:06,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was a challenge.

1688
01:22:06,560 --> 01:22:09,639
Speaker 4: I mean Mike McCormick was my offensive line coach and

1689
01:22:09,840 --> 01:22:13,240
Speaker 4: he would give us a written tests every week on assignments.

1690
01:22:13,360 --> 01:22:13,679
Speaker 5: Uh.

1691
01:22:13,960 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 4: And he would give us two grades. One in the

1692
01:22:15,520 --> 01:22:18,240
Speaker 4: upper left hand corner was it was your grade on

1693
01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:20,839
Speaker 4: your position, and upper right hand corner corner was everybody

1694
01:22:21,280 --> 01:22:25,719
Speaker 4: on the offensive line and the five offensive lineman and uh,

1695
01:22:25,800 --> 01:22:29,639
Speaker 4: you know I started grading pretty well in both areas,

1696
01:22:29,640 --> 01:22:31,760
Speaker 4: and he's like, you know, we might, uh see, you

1697
01:22:32,040 --> 01:22:34,280
Speaker 4: might start working a little bit at some of these

1698
01:22:34,280 --> 01:22:35,080
Speaker 4: other positions.

1699
01:22:35,200 --> 01:22:35,479
Speaker 5: Uh.

1700
01:22:35,600 --> 01:22:38,839
Speaker 4: And particularly in past protection. You know, there's different techniques

1701
01:22:38,840 --> 01:22:40,120
Speaker 4: who want to teach you and blah blah blah. And

1702
01:22:40,160 --> 01:22:42,920
Speaker 4: Mike McCormick was an All Pro tackle himself with the

1703
01:22:42,920 --> 01:22:46,240
Speaker 4: Cleveland Browns, for Paul Brown, so we had a common

1704
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:49,280
Speaker 4: denominator there. But uh, yeah, Mike McCormick was a big

1705
01:22:49,320 --> 01:22:52,439
Speaker 4: factor in me being able to play all those all

1706
01:22:52,479 --> 01:22:54,160
Speaker 4: those different positions in the same game.

1707
01:22:56,760 --> 01:23:01,080
Speaker 3: How strongly did you consider could could we? Could we

1708
01:23:01,160 --> 01:23:04,640
Speaker 3: have been talking about Dave Lapham the coach instead of

1709
01:23:04,720 --> 01:23:07,559
Speaker 3: Dave Lapham the broadcaster. Did you think about coaching? You

1710
01:23:07,560 --> 01:23:10,040
Speaker 3: You thought about it strongly getting into coaching.

1711
01:23:09,720 --> 01:23:10,040
Speaker 2: Didn't you?

1712
01:23:10,080 --> 01:23:10,960
Speaker 5: Absolutely? I did.

1713
01:23:11,040 --> 01:23:14,719
Speaker 4: Lance, Yeah, I thought long and hard about it. Paul

1714
01:23:14,760 --> 01:23:17,479
Speaker 4: Brown offered it up and said, you know, think you'd

1715
01:23:17,479 --> 01:23:20,680
Speaker 4: be a good line coach. And he felt like at

1716
01:23:20,720 --> 01:23:23,680
Speaker 4: the NFL level, like I had Rock all Pirot at

1717
01:23:23,760 --> 01:23:27,040
Speaker 4: Syracuse who he respected, and then in the NFL level

1718
01:23:27,040 --> 01:23:30,160
Speaker 4: because he respected Ben Schwarzwalder so much at the collegiate level,

1719
01:23:30,160 --> 01:23:32,759
Speaker 4: and then at the NFL level, to have Tiger Johnson,

1720
01:23:32,800 --> 01:23:34,240
Speaker 4: Mike McCormick, those kind of people.

1721
01:23:34,320 --> 01:23:36,120
Speaker 5: He knew what they were all about.

1722
01:23:36,240 --> 01:23:39,040
Speaker 4: He knew he hired those guys, he knew their resumes,

1723
01:23:39,040 --> 01:23:43,120
Speaker 4: He knew that they were both Pro Bowl players, great linemen,

1724
01:23:43,240 --> 01:23:46,040
Speaker 4: great players of their era, and and had taken on

1725
01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:52,000
Speaker 4: the coaching profession and succeeded very very well. So, you know,

1726
01:23:52,080 --> 01:23:54,519
Speaker 4: he he took me into his office at the stadium

1727
01:23:54,560 --> 01:23:56,479
Speaker 4: and said, you know, would you have an interest? And

1728
01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:59,240
Speaker 4: I'm like, I'm not sure, let me let me think

1729
01:23:59,240 --> 01:24:03,240
Speaker 4: about it. And really, for the sake of my wife

1730
01:24:03,240 --> 01:24:05,679
Speaker 4: and children, I just didn't want to be hopscotching around

1731
01:24:05,720 --> 01:24:08,000
Speaker 4: here as much, so I thought, well, stay in the

1732
01:24:08,040 --> 01:24:10,000
Speaker 4: broadcast end of it. And it's worked out. We've been

1733
01:24:10,560 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 4: been here for fifty years, ten as a player and

1734
01:24:12,600 --> 01:24:13,320
Speaker 4: forty in the booth.

1735
01:24:13,360 --> 01:24:17,559
Speaker 3: Now, man, oh man, what what does anything stick out

1736
01:24:17,640 --> 01:24:20,680
Speaker 3: from your very first game as a player with the.

1737
01:24:20,640 --> 01:24:25,240
Speaker 4: Bengals, Boy, very first game as a player. I just

1738
01:24:25,320 --> 01:24:29,320
Speaker 4: know I remember my very first practice probably as much

1739
01:24:29,320 --> 01:24:32,320
Speaker 4: as my very first game because it was against Mike Reid.

1740
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:36,479
Speaker 4: I mean, the All Pro defensive tackle who was a

1741
01:24:36,520 --> 01:24:39,600
Speaker 4: concert pianist and a musician songwriter. I mean, yes, this

1742
01:24:39,720 --> 01:24:44,519
Speaker 4: dude was unbelievably talented. My god, he was amazing. He

1743
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:47,559
Speaker 4: was like sixty three two fifty five two sixty I

1744
01:24:47,600 --> 01:24:49,880
Speaker 4: mean so quick. It's like, I know, I didn't close

1745
01:24:49,920 --> 01:24:52,320
Speaker 4: my damn eyes. How the hell did he get from

1746
01:24:52,360 --> 01:24:53,360
Speaker 4: there to there?

1747
01:24:53,400 --> 01:24:55,040
Speaker 5: So fast? He was.

1748
01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:59,280
Speaker 4: I used to just love all the offensive line we'd

1749
01:24:59,320 --> 01:25:01,479
Speaker 4: stand on the side instead of sitting now with stand

1750
01:25:01,520 --> 01:25:02,120
Speaker 4: there and watch him.

1751
01:25:02,200 --> 01:25:03,120
Speaker 5: What's he gonna do? Oh?

1752
01:25:03,160 --> 01:25:05,599
Speaker 4: Here he comes, here it is, here's the play. He's

1753
01:25:05,600 --> 01:25:06,800
Speaker 4: gonna make a big one.

1754
01:25:06,520 --> 01:25:07,519
Speaker 5: He was.

1755
01:25:07,960 --> 01:25:11,519
Speaker 4: He impacted the game from the defensive tackle position more

1756
01:25:11,560 --> 01:25:13,559
Speaker 4: than any alignment I've ever seen.

1757
01:25:13,640 --> 01:25:16,040
Speaker 3: I always thought he would be a great subject for

1758
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:19,559
Speaker 3: ESPN's thirty for thirty, Absolutely for people who do just

1759
01:25:19,640 --> 01:25:22,559
Speaker 3: don't understand and appreciate how good he was as a

1760
01:25:22,560 --> 01:25:25,080
Speaker 3: football player walking away from it, and how good he

1761
01:25:25,240 --> 01:25:28,120
Speaker 3: was a singer songwriter. He's in the Nashville Music Hall

1762
01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:32,960
Speaker 3: of Fame. Ronnie MILLSAP songs, Bonnie Rait songs, his own songs.

1763
01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:36,280
Speaker 3: I was at now I'm flashing back to this. I

1764
01:25:36,360 --> 01:25:38,240
Speaker 3: was at the Blind Lemon with my wife a couple

1765
01:25:38,200 --> 01:25:40,800
Speaker 3: of years ago, first time I'd never been there, and

1766
01:25:40,840 --> 01:25:42,479
Speaker 3: I looked at all the pictures up on the wall

1767
01:25:42,520 --> 01:25:45,520
Speaker 3: of Mike Reid, and I'm like, if people only understood,

1768
01:25:45,560 --> 01:25:47,840
Speaker 3: there should be an ESPN thirty for thirty on the

1769
01:25:47,880 --> 01:25:48,840
Speaker 3: life of Mike Reid.

1770
01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:49,560
Speaker 2: It's incredible.

1771
01:25:49,640 --> 01:25:54,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, he really he was an unbelievable football player, and

1772
01:25:54,720 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 4: only like you said, Lance, he left the game four

1773
01:25:59,000 --> 01:26:02,679
Speaker 4: years after his fourth year, you had to play five

1774
01:26:02,760 --> 01:26:05,200
Speaker 4: to be invested pension.

1775
01:26:05,600 --> 01:26:08,680
Speaker 5: And he said, yeah, forget it, I'm done with it.

1776
01:26:08,680 --> 01:26:12,200
Speaker 4: He hated football, hated it, hated the physicality of it.

1777
01:26:12,560 --> 01:26:14,640
Speaker 4: I mean when I was a rookie, I was, you know,

1778
01:26:15,080 --> 01:26:18,560
Speaker 4: young and enthusiastic and you know, energetic, and I was

1779
01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:20,280
Speaker 4: coming off the line of scrimmage like it was a game,

1780
01:26:20,320 --> 01:26:22,240
Speaker 4: you know, and he's like, hey, hey, hey, big boy,

1786
01:26:34,960 --> 01:26:37,360

1857
01:29:55,760 --> 01:29:59,400
Speaker 8: school games, whatever, whatever. It is at the whole community

1858

Speaker 8: showing up, coming out to see.

1859
01:30:01,439 --> 01:30:03,679
Speaker 9: And yet I've read that when you were really young

1860
01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:06,000
Speaker 9: you weren't really a sports kid. Is that true?

1861
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:08,679
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, not at all. You know, I was more

1862
01:30:09,400 --> 01:30:12,559
Speaker 8: I was more of like a book nerd. Crazy to

1863
01:30:12,600 --> 01:30:16,400
Speaker 8: think that, but yeah, So what changed?

1864
01:30:16,640 --> 01:30:17,639
Speaker 9: What flipped the switch?

1865
01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:20,760
Speaker 8: One of my stitude teachers in third grade forced me

1866
01:30:20,800 --> 01:30:23,240
Speaker 8: to play football like he was not taking over an answer,

1867
01:30:23,920 --> 01:30:27,560
Speaker 8: so he got my grandma's number and basically forced me

1868
01:30:27,600 --> 01:30:29,760
Speaker 8: to force me to the part he was coaching.

1869
01:30:29,520 --> 01:30:31,559
Speaker 9: That that guy did you a favor.

1870
01:30:31,800 --> 01:30:33,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, his son is my best friend to this day.

1871
01:30:34,720 --> 01:30:37,559
Speaker 9: Now, is it true that you were really the last

1872
01:30:37,680 --> 01:30:40,280
Speaker 9: kid picked in gym class when you were about in

1873
01:30:40,400 --> 01:30:41,080
Speaker 9: sixth grade?

1874
01:30:41,160 --> 01:30:42,000
Speaker 6: Oh? Yeah, for sure.

1875
01:30:42,120 --> 01:30:44,360
Speaker 8: I was terrible. I was horrible. They used to say

1876
01:30:44,360 --> 01:30:48,120
Speaker 8: I have two left hands. Yeah, I was terrible.

1877
01:30:49,439 --> 01:30:51,960
Speaker 9: We're doing fun facts with Jamar Stewart. When you were

1878
01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:55,280
Speaker 9: junior in high school, one of your teammates was Ohio

1879
01:30:55,400 --> 01:31:00,600
Speaker 9: state wide receiver Jeremiah Smith. Could you tell them that

1880
01:31:00,680 --> 01:31:02,599
Speaker 9: he was going to be that guy?

1881
01:31:03,520 --> 01:31:06,400
Speaker 8: I knew he's gonna be great, but he just kept working.

1882
01:31:06,439 --> 01:31:09,599
Speaker 8: Now it just blew all everything I thought about him

1883
01:31:09,640 --> 01:31:13,120
Speaker 8: aout the water like that lesson was there since he

1884
01:31:13,200 --> 01:31:16,120
Speaker 8: came to my high school. So not a big shock.

1885
01:31:16,160 --> 01:31:18,000
Speaker 8: I've seen what he did, Like first couple of weeks

1886
01:31:18,080 --> 01:31:21,320
Speaker 8: when he was in full camp, I was like, man's crazy.

1887
01:31:21,400 --> 01:31:23,120
Speaker 8: As a freshman in high school.

1888
01:31:23,400 --> 01:31:25,160
Speaker 9: It's crazy to me to think that you two guys

1889
01:31:25,240 --> 01:31:26,479
Speaker 9: were in the same high school team.

1890
01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:29,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, and we weren't winning nothing.

1891
01:31:29,600 --> 01:31:32,720
Speaker 9: Crazy crazy, right, bad quarterback.

1892
01:31:34,360 --> 01:31:36,800
Speaker 6: I'll correct on D one. I don't know what it was.

1893
01:31:37,240 --> 01:31:38,920
Speaker 9: The other teams must have been really good.

1894
01:31:38,840 --> 01:31:41,439
Speaker 6: Man, I guess. So it's crazy.

1895
01:31:41,640 --> 01:31:44,120
Speaker 9: We're doing fun facts Schamar Stewart, You were one of

1896
01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:46,760
Speaker 9: the top recruits in the country. Did you enjoy the

1897
01:31:46,840 --> 01:31:51,040
Speaker 9: process having all of those schools and coaches essentially flirt?

1898
01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:55,439
Speaker 6: No? No, man, those phone calls just get crazy.

1899
01:31:55,720 --> 01:31:59,320
Speaker 8: I used to come home, hey man, call me, Like

1900
01:32:00,080 --> 01:32:02,639
Speaker 8: I got like ten calls from different coaches from all

Speaker 9: the Aggies?

1909
01:32:17,200 --> 01:32:19,880
Speaker 8: And you know, the coaching staff there REI just treat

1910
01:32:19,920 --> 01:32:22,320
Speaker 8: you like family, you know, even though I'm two thousand

1911
01:32:22,360 --> 01:32:24,080
Speaker 8: miles away from home, Like I didn't feel like I

1912
01:32:24,120 --> 01:32:27,439
Speaker 8: was missing home very much. So and plus I made

1913
01:32:27,520 --> 01:32:29,880
Speaker 8: lifelong friends at A and M, so like I feel

1914
01:32:29,920 --> 01:32:31,559
Speaker 8: like I had a home away from home, you know.

1915
01:32:32,160 --> 01:32:34,200
Speaker 9: So I read that your nickname at Texas A and

1916
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:38,120
Speaker 9: M was the Menace? Is that true? And who gave

1917
01:32:38,160 --> 01:32:38,919
Speaker 9: you that nickname?

1918
01:32:39,400 --> 01:32:41,040
Speaker 6: I forgot who exactly gave it to me?

1919
01:32:41,080 --> 01:32:43,400
Speaker 8: But I got it back in high school, going every

1920
01:32:43,479 --> 01:32:44,960
Speaker 8: day trying to get better. So of course of my

1921

Speaker 8: practice hard, you know, make it hard for our office,

1922
01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:51,400
Speaker 8: you know, playing hard in practice to make our office better.

1923
01:32:51,960 --> 01:32:54,479
Speaker 8: And in the games, you know, I'm just all over

1924
01:32:54,520 --> 01:32:57,200
Speaker 8: the field and I'm just a little menace.

1925
01:32:57,000 --> 01:32:57,439
Speaker 6: On the field.

1926
01:32:58,240 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 9: What does the word man represent to you?

1927
01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:06,439
Speaker 8: Somebody has always been instructive, so I feel like that

1928
01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:08,040
Speaker 8: defines me very well.

1929
01:33:08,520 --> 01:33:11,200
Speaker 9: So I broadcast the Bengals games on the radio. When

1930
01:33:11,240 --> 01:33:14,160
Speaker 9: you have a sack, would you like me and my

1931
01:33:14,240 --> 01:33:18,040
Speaker 9: broadcast partner Dave Lapham to say a sack by the menace?

1932
01:33:18,360 --> 01:33:19,080
Speaker 5: I would love that.

1933
01:33:20,160 --> 01:33:22,120
Speaker 6: I will love that all right.

1934
01:33:22,160 --> 01:33:24,360
Speaker 9: Well, hopefully there will be a bunch this year. Do

1935
01:33:24,400 --> 01:33:26,960
Speaker 9: you have been compared to a Texas A and m

1936
01:33:27,080 --> 01:33:31,639
Speaker 9: legend Miles Garrett for obvious reasons, your similar size, similar

1937
01:33:31,640 --> 01:33:34,479
Speaker 9: athletic ability. What do you think of Miles Garrett? What

1938
01:33:34,520 --> 01:33:35,560
Speaker 9: do you think of the comparison?

1939
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:38,160
Speaker 8: Man, he's a great player, and I feel like that's

1940
01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:39,720
Speaker 8: a blessing because the.

1941
01:33:39,680 --> 01:33:42,040
Speaker 6: Way he's doing it right now, he's coming the game.

1942
01:33:42,360 --> 01:33:46,320
Speaker 8: And I feel like that's a very great, great comparison.

1943
01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:49,240
Speaker 8: I feel like we look we match up body wise. No,

1944
01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:50,759
Speaker 8: I'm trying to match someone play wise.

1945
01:33:52,200 --> 01:33:54,599
Speaker 9: Was it a goal of yours to top the numbers

1946
01:33:54,600 --> 01:33:56,360
Speaker 9: that he posted at his combine?

1947
01:33:56,840 --> 01:33:57,120
Speaker 6: Kind of?

1948
01:33:57,160 --> 01:33:57,479
Speaker 5: Sort of?

1949
01:33:57,920 --> 01:34:00,320
Speaker 8: You know, I feel like if I could get what

1950
01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:02,040
Speaker 8: he got, people will look at me a different light.

1951
01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:05,679
Speaker 8: So I tried my hardest. He got me some arias,

1952
01:34:05,720 --> 01:34:07,040
Speaker 8: and I got him in some areas to.

1953
01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:09,160
Speaker 9: You got him in the forty, You got him in

1954
01:34:09,200 --> 01:34:11,080
Speaker 9: the broad jump. He got you by one inch in

1955
01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:12,519
Speaker 9: the vertical. That's pretty impressive.

1956
01:34:12,520 --> 01:34:16,800
Speaker 8: That's crazy because I felt like I jumped out my spine.

1957
01:34:17,520 --> 01:34:18,240
Speaker 6: It's crazy.

1958
01:34:18,520 --> 01:34:21,040
Speaker 9: All right, we're visiting with Shamar Stewart. Let's get back

1959
01:34:21,080 --> 01:34:25,759
Speaker 9: to athletic testing. Those numbers were freakish that you posted

1960
01:34:25,800 --> 01:34:29,599
Speaker 9: in Indianapolis. What do you consider to be your greatest

1961
01:34:29,720 --> 01:34:34,080
Speaker 9: athletic achievement? Did you dunk get a really early age?

1962
01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:35,040
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1963
01:34:35,080 --> 01:34:36,400
Speaker 9: What stands out to you?

1964
01:34:36,960 --> 01:34:37,400
Speaker 2: Uh?

1965
01:34:37,439 --> 01:34:40,439
Speaker 6: I don't. I got my first dunk in sixth grade?

1966
01:34:40,920 --> 01:34:41,599
Speaker 9: Sixth grade?

1967
01:34:41,760 --> 01:34:44,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, five nine.

1968
01:34:45,040 --> 01:34:48,639
Speaker 9: That's amazing. You were the seventeenth overall pick in the draft.

1969
01:34:49,320 --> 01:34:52,599
Speaker 9: You'll always be referred to as first round draft pick.

1970
01:34:52,760 --> 01:34:55,680
Speaker 9: Shamar Stewart. It becomes almost like a title. Can you

1971
01:34:55,720 --> 01:34:59,160
Speaker 9: describe the experience of being in Green Bay at Lambeau?

1972
01:35:00,960 --> 01:35:03,040
Speaker 8: You know, I was really happy, you know, I was

1973
01:35:03,080 --> 01:35:05,160
Speaker 8: thankful for a moment, you know, me and my family,

1974
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:07,760

1975
01:35:07,760 --> 01:35:10,519
Speaker 8: the way, it was there, so you know, you know,

1976
01:35:10,600 --> 01:35:14,160

1978
01:35:18,040 --> 01:35:20,880
Speaker 8: So just wanted to be in the moment with everybody

Speaker 9: didn't specifically remember meeting with the Bengals at the combine,

1982
01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:32,080
Speaker 9: And I get it. It's speed dating. You're going from

1983
01:35:32,120 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 9: team to team to team. It's like, you know, fifteen

1984
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:37,720
Speaker 9: minute meetings with all of these teams. When you came

1985

1987
01:35:44,080 --> 01:35:45,040
Speaker 9: back in? Did you remember?

1988
01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:45,599
Speaker 8: Oh?

01:35:45,720 --> 01:35:46,839
Speaker 9: Yeah, those guys.

1990
01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:50,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's kind of hard, Like you gotta remember I

1992
01:35:54,240 --> 01:35:58,800

01:35:58,800 --> 01:36:00,960
Speaker 8: over the place. I'm ready for it over. I'm ready

01:36:07,880 --> 01:36:10,519
Speaker 9: The important thing is that they remembered you really well.

1997
01:36:11,560 --> 01:36:14,320

Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers. The Jets dropped to oh to seven.

2079
01:39:48,000 --> 01:39:51,320
Speaker 3: They made a quarterback change in game justin fields out

2080
01:39:51,400 --> 01:39:55,439
Speaker 3: Tyrod Taylor in Here's the opening thoughts on yesterday's loss

2081
01:39:55,439 --> 01:39:57,280
Speaker 3: from Jets coach Aaron Glenn.

2082
01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:00,679
Speaker 10: All Right, when it comes to injuries, j to Felley

2083
01:40:00,840 --> 01:40:03,680
Speaker 10: went out the game with a knee and Sauce and

2084
01:40:03,800 --> 01:40:05,200
Speaker 10: can they both had concussion.

2085
01:40:05,320 --> 01:40:07,000
Speaker 6: So we'll see exactly where that is.

2086
01:40:07,840 --> 01:40:10,840
Speaker 10: Give you guys an answer as the week progress on

2087
01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:13,479
Speaker 10: those three guys. When it comes to the game, I mean,

2088
01:40:13,560 --> 01:40:17,920
Speaker 10: obviously disappointed. Another low scoring game where the defense did

2089
01:40:18,040 --> 01:40:20,120
Speaker 10: a hell of a job, you know, holding this holding

2090
01:40:20,120 --> 01:40:24,560
Speaker 10: this team to thirteen points, getting a good amount of

2091
01:40:25,680 --> 01:40:29,519
Speaker 10: three and outs, but obviously not good enough. I mean,

2092
01:40:29,560 --> 01:40:32,080
Speaker 10: we give it too many points till I'm to win

2093
01:40:32,120 --> 01:40:34,439
Speaker 10: the game offensively. We have a lot of work to

2094
01:40:34,479 --> 01:40:37,519
Speaker 10: do and that speaks for self. We all know that.

2095
01:40:38,160 --> 01:40:39,680
Speaker 10: But the only thing we can do is go back

2096
01:40:39,680 --> 01:40:43,160
Speaker 10: to work. It's the only thing we can do. I

2097
01:40:43,240 --> 01:40:45,840
Speaker 10: understand the nature of the quarterback change, Listen, we needed

2098
01:40:45,840 --> 01:40:47,960
Speaker 10: a spark at that time. I felt it was the

2099
01:40:48,040 --> 01:40:52,879
Speaker 10: right time to do it. There was a tough situation

2100
01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:56,760
Speaker 10: for both of those guys, but it was my call.

2101
01:40:57,439 --> 01:40:58,640
Speaker 10: It was my call, and I felt it was the

2102
01:40:58,720 --> 01:41:00,680
Speaker 10: right time to do it. So when it goes into

2103
01:41:00,680 --> 01:41:03,519
Speaker 10: the next week, I'm not ready to sit here and

2104
01:41:03,560 --> 01:41:05,839
Speaker 10: say what's going on happen when next week with our quarterbacks,

2105
01:41:05,880 --> 01:41:07,320
Speaker 10: But I will say this, that's something I have to

2106
01:41:07,320 --> 01:41:11,559
Speaker 10: look at, you know, so any questions, I will say this.

2107
01:41:11,680 --> 01:41:13,280
Speaker 10: On a special team, I thought our special team did

2108
01:41:13,320 --> 01:41:17,160
Speaker 10: some good things. There was a couple of things that

2109
01:41:17,160 --> 01:41:18,960
Speaker 10: that we still have to work on, you know, for

2110
01:41:19,000 --> 01:41:19,880
Speaker 10: the most part, but there.

2111
01:41:19,760 --> 01:41:21,720
Speaker 5: Are some good things our special teams did.

2112
01:41:22,720 --> 01:41:24,680
Speaker 10: I was just gonna hurt cause canas out you know,

2113
01:41:24,720 --> 01:41:26,920
Speaker 10: with see exactly what it is gonna lead to because he's.

2114
01:41:26,920 --> 01:41:28,360
Speaker 5: He's one of our dynamic guys.

2115
01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:31,080
Speaker 10: But I thought there were some good things on special teams.

2116
01:41:31,200 --> 01:41:33,920
Speaker 4: When you did make the change, it looked like you

2117
01:41:34,000 --> 01:41:36,800
Speaker 4: had a little bit more flow offensively with Tyrod, even

2118
01:41:36,840 --> 01:41:38,400
Speaker 4: though that's a great playing.

2119
01:41:38,160 --> 01:41:39,679
Speaker 6: The end zone.

2120
01:41:38,560 --> 01:41:41,880
Speaker 5: But what did you did you feel out at all?

2121
01:41:42,040 --> 01:41:44,200
Speaker 10: You know, Yeah, I just I just felt like it

2122
01:41:44,240 --> 01:41:46,040
Speaker 10: was it was time, you know, that our team needed

2123
01:41:46,040 --> 01:41:49,240
Speaker 10: to spark, and I thought we did move the ball,

2124
01:41:49,439 --> 01:41:52,640
Speaker 10: you know, fairly well, obviously not enough to give our

2125
01:41:52,720 --> 01:41:56,200
Speaker 10: chief a chance to win. Yeah, those guys made two

2126
01:41:56,200 --> 01:41:58,880
Speaker 10: great plays on interceptions, and I guess the tough thing

2127
01:41:58,880 --> 01:42:02,400
Speaker 10: about that is, man, you rather have where either we

2128
01:42:02,520 --> 01:42:05,040
Speaker 10: catch it it's a dp I or it's incomplete, you know.

2129
01:42:05,080 --> 01:42:07,519
Speaker 10: And that has to be the mindset of us on

2130
01:42:07,640 --> 01:42:11,040
Speaker 10: offense to where we're not giving up interceptions. So but

2131
01:42:11,080 --> 01:42:12,800
Speaker 10: they happen, you know, got to get those guys credit.

2132
01:42:12,880 --> 01:42:15,840
Speaker 10: They made some plays, but we have to be able

2133
01:42:15,840 --> 01:42:17,720
Speaker 10: to pull out you know, these little scoring games. The

2134
01:42:17,720 --> 01:42:19,639
Speaker 10: thing is our guys are fighting. There's no quitting any

2135
01:42:19,680 --> 01:42:22,120
Speaker 10: of our guys. So I give those guys a lot

2136
01:42:22,120 --> 01:42:23,800
Speaker 10: of credit, but again we have to go back to

2137
01:42:23,800 --> 01:42:24,479
Speaker 10: work next week.

2138
01:42:24,760 --> 01:42:27,599
Speaker 11: Could you talk about some of the issues with past protection.

2139
01:42:27,760 --> 01:42:30,360
Speaker 10: They were not a big sack team coming in and

2140
01:42:30,600 --> 01:42:33,240
Speaker 10: I think they equals well, again, I have to go

2141
01:42:33,240 --> 01:42:34,840
Speaker 10: back and look at it, but it seemed like we

2142
01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:37,040
Speaker 10: lost a good bit of one on ones and that

2143
01:42:37,040 --> 01:42:40,479
Speaker 10: can happen in those situations, and I guess it's obviously.

2144
01:42:40,479 --> 01:42:42,680
Speaker 10: I mean, team's gonna try to pressure us, and we

2145
01:42:42,760 --> 01:42:47,040
Speaker 10: have to do a better job in those situations. So again,

2146
01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:48,599
Speaker 10: we have to look at the take, you know, see

2147
01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:51,240
Speaker 10: exactly what the issues are, go back to work next

2148
01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:52,120
Speaker 10: week and try to fix those.

2149
01:42:52,200 --> 01:42:55,280
Speaker 3: Aaron Glenn, rookie coach, was the defensive coordinator or the

2150
01:42:55,400 --> 01:42:58,080
Speaker 3: Jets or the Lions last year. It becomes the first

2151
01:42:58,200 --> 01:43:01,559
Speaker 3: Jets coach to lose his first seven games to begin

2152
01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:04,720
Speaker 3: his career. Jets haven't scored an offensive touchdown in the

2153
01:43:04,800 --> 01:43:06,640
Speaker 3: last two weeks.

2154
01:43:06,360 --> 01:43:07,280
Speaker 2: Oh and seven.

2155
01:43:08,800 --> 01:43:11,760
Speaker 3: Boy, I'd like to jump on them quickly and give

2156
01:43:11,800 --> 01:43:14,840
Speaker 3: them little reason to stay engaged in the game on Sunday.

2157
01:43:14,560 --> 01:43:17,160
Speaker 4: I think you've hit on the biggest factor and not

2158
01:43:17,280 --> 01:43:20,280
Speaker 4: surprised with all the football that you've seen. Paul Brown

2159
01:43:20,360 --> 01:43:22,400
Speaker 4: used to say that when we were going against the

2160
01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:24,720
Speaker 4: team they hadn't won a game. He would be like,

2161
01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:27,760
Speaker 4: jump right down their throats, you know, right away, take

2162
01:43:27,800 --> 01:43:30,439
Speaker 4: all the air out of their out of their lungs,

2163
01:43:30,439 --> 01:43:34,040
Speaker 4: you know, hit them as hard as you can, for

2164
01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:37,479
Speaker 4: as quickly as you possibly can. We don't want to

2165
01:43:37,479 --> 01:43:39,400
Speaker 4: mess around. We don't want it to be scoreless after

2166
01:43:39,439 --> 01:43:42,439
Speaker 4: the first quarter, scores at halftime, have them in the

2167
01:43:42,439 --> 01:43:44,559
Speaker 4: game at the end of the third quarter. We want

2168
01:43:44,600 --> 01:43:48,439
Speaker 4: this game to be over with And he honestly, he

2169
01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:52,000
Speaker 4: remember he told me one time, I'd rather play against

2170
01:43:52,000 --> 01:43:55,439
Speaker 4: a team you know that's that's seven and zero rather

2171
01:43:55,479 --> 01:43:57,840
Speaker 4: than oh and seven, because I know my guys are

2172
01:43:57,840 --> 01:43:59,360
Speaker 4: going to be up to beat them. They want to

2173
01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:01,360
Speaker 4: be the first team to knock them off, you know,

2174
01:44:01,479 --> 01:44:05,559
Speaker 4: And that's just human nature. And he said, you know,

2175
01:44:05,680 --> 01:44:08,640
Speaker 4: he used to worry about these these games, and I

2176
01:44:08,680 --> 01:44:12,559
Speaker 4: think Mike, being the son of Paul Brown, I think

2177
01:44:12,600 --> 01:44:15,040
Speaker 4: he probably has has his share of worry about this

2178
01:44:15,080 --> 01:44:15,639
Speaker 4: one as well.

2179
01:44:15,720 --> 01:44:18,599
