Welcome into Bengals Line and 10 00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:33,559 Speaker 3: the Bengals Radio Network, Lance Pacalister along with Dave Lapham. 11 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:35,880 Speaker 3: We have a game at lambeau Field to break down 12 00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,559 Speaker 3: from yesterday. We've got a quick turnaround Thursday night look 13 00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:40,519 Speaker 3: ahead to those Pittsburgh Steelers. 14 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 4: So let's get to it. 15 00:00:41,920 --> 00:00:44,680 Speaker 3: Dave, going in, there was no question the Bengals were 16 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:46,280 Speaker 3: going to be up against it. They were on the 17 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,600 Speaker 3: road against a good Packers team, a crazy crash course 18 00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,839 Speaker 3: for Joe Flacco. I think everybody was looking for signs 19 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: of something to build with. First half was then in 20 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,440 Speaker 3: the second half, the wheels started to turn a little 21 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:01,960 Speaker 3: bit and while the comeback fall short. I think it 22 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,160 Speaker 3: leads everybody thinking, all right, there might be something here 23 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,759 Speaker 3: to work with going into Thursday night. 24 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 4: I agree with you, Lance, I think Joe Flacco quitted 25 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,039 Speaker 4: himself quite well. You know, I mean, he's a pros 26 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:16,000 Speaker 4: pro in every sense of the word. He prepares like 27 00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:20,480 Speaker 4: a pro. He conducts the huddle, he gets the line 28 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 4: of scrimmage, and you know, identifies things, sees things that 29 00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:26,960 Speaker 4: like a guy that's been in the league for a while, 30 00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,440 Speaker 4: and he'd been in the league for a while forty 31 00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:32,160 Speaker 4: years old. That's just remarkable to me. That is hard 32 00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 4: for me to get my mind around a forty year 33 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 4: old quarterback. That's amazing. And you look at it and 34 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 4: he's the huddle looking the guys that I remember seeing 35 00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:43,679 Speaker 4: you when I was in elementary school. You played a 36 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,920 Speaker 4: hell of the game, you know, against the Pittsburgh Steelers, 37 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:51,000 Speaker 4: And so it's probably a very surreal experience for a 38 00:01:51,000 --> 00:01:54,000 Speaker 4: lot of people on both sides of it. You know, 39 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 4: Dan Pitcher's not that old. His offensive coordinator, I mean, 40 00:01:58,400 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 4: his position coach is not all it's like, yeah, it's 41 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 4: he's uh, he's but he's been through that multiple times. 42 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 4: He's been through that before. There's there's no doubt about it. 43 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 4: And I thought, honestly, the offense played decently. I I 44 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 4: really thought that, uh was it good enough to win 45 00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 4: in some cases against some teams, but not this football 46 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 4: team Green Bay Packers up there at lambeau Field at home, 47 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 4: a very raucous place. I mean, the crowd was into it, 48 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:25,800 Speaker 4: There's no question about it. A lot of Bengals fans 49 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,119 Speaker 4: give them a lot of credit. They did drive north Man, 50 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 4: a lot of them traveled, and uh, and they showed 51 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 4: up chance. You could hear the team, no doubt, tea 52 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 4: wash the t uh, the t chants were everywhere. 53 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:38,639 Speaker 5: It was. 54 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,639 Speaker 4: It was boisterous. Uh, there's no question about it. And 55 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:46,920 Speaker 4: I thought that, Uh, the inconsistency of the play was 56 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 4: the big thing. You know, first quarter defense plays pretty well. 57 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 4: Offense doesn't show up, second quarter total of the opposite, 58 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 4: third quarter at flips, fourth quarter at flips again. So 59 00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 4: the inconsistency of it, and and uh, you know, in 60 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 4: the NFL you want to play a delete game, and 61 00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 4: if one a phase of it, one side of it, 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 4: the offensive struggling defense needs to step up and vice versa. 63 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:15,240 Speaker 4: And you know you did that decently, But man, I 64 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:18,639 Speaker 4: just I just think that the inconsistent part of it 65 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 4: is there's so much meat on the bone on both 66 00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 4: sides of the line of scrimmage. 67 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,359 Speaker 5: That's the thing. 68 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,760 Speaker 3: Twenty seven to eighteen. The final score here is immediate 69 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 3: reaction after the game, Dave with the coach, Zach Taylor. 70 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 4: Coach, appreciate you taking the time to join us out 71 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 4: at the game as you always do your class act. 72 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 6: Thank you. 73 00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:36,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, boss. 74 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:40,600 Speaker 8: Again, It's it's hard when you come in here expect 75 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 8: to win and you come up short. We just got 76 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 8: to put together a full team after both has and 77 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 8: weren't able to do that today. 78 00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 4: I thought that your quarterbacks, he's a special obviously forty 79 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 4: year old guy eighteen years in the league to still 80 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 4: be competing the way he competes, he's obviously a special 81 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:57,720 Speaker 4: guy in a lot of ways. 82 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 6: What did he give you today? Yeah, he gave us a. 83 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 8: Lot of confidence. I mean he made some big time throws, 84 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 8: tight windows, able to lead us on several scoring drives 85 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 8: there at the end of the half, potentially piggybacked into 86 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:12,760 Speaker 8: the second half, got us in scoring zones on ever drive, 87 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,200 Speaker 8: and I think that really lifted the team. Up and 88 00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 8: again it's unfortunate. We're all looking for constellations or silver linings. 89 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 8: But the truth of it is he got here five 90 00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,440 Speaker 8: days ago and to play like that on the road, 91 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 8: silent cadence, all the noise, great pass rushers. You know, 92 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 8: that's something we're going to continue to piggyback on and 93 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 8: it'll pay dippendence for us. 94 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, you just went through a good laundry list of 95 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:38,159 Speaker 4: what he was facing. It is remarkable how well he 96 00:04:38,240 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 4: did play, to go on a scoring drive every drive 97 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 4: in the second half of this football game against that defense, 98 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 4: very solid unit. They have players everywhere and the fans 99 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 4: making all the noise that are making. You know, like 100 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 4: you said, I had to go silent. Snap count of 101 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:52,600 Speaker 4: what does it say about him? 102 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:53,200 Speaker 9: It says a lot. 103 00:04:53,240 --> 00:04:55,520 Speaker 8: I mean, he's he worked to put himself in that position. 104 00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 8: He didn't come in here and assume he was gonna 105 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 8: know it all. He really worked and you could see 106 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,440 Speaker 8: even the stuff behind the scenes, how much he had 107 00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:05,120 Speaker 8: to have done. Because when he walked into a meeting, 108 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,920 Speaker 8: he walked into a huddle, he was prepared, He gave 109 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:09,280 Speaker 8: the guest confidence, he said it all cleanly, and when 110 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 8: he got a quarterback that just walks in and says 111 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,880 Speaker 8: that as clean as he does. It gives us guy's confidence, hope, 112 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:15,800 Speaker 8: believe this guy knows what he's doing. And he showed that, 113 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,680 Speaker 8: you know, and we'll continue to capitalize on that. 114 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 4: When did you as a coaching staff realize that, I mean, 115 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 4: obviously he's special, but when did you realize you had 116 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 4: something that was pretty darn unique to work with? 117 00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:28,360 Speaker 8: Well, I think you just watch him throw, you watch 118 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 8: him to the football. He's capable of doing it all. 119 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 8: And so again you get a chance to attack all 120 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 8: parts of the field. And I thought our protection for 121 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 8: the most part, did a good job giving him some opportunities. 122 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 8: He got the bottle of his hand what he needed 123 00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,359 Speaker 8: to avoid some some pressure looks. I mean, these people 124 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 8: have teed off on people now and put a lot 125 00:05:45,120 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 8: of pressure on quarterbacks, and I thought our redline give 126 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 8: him a chance to make the decisions he. 127 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 5: Needed to make. 128 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 4: Parsons Gary, no sacks, You have no turnovers, no interceptions, 129 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 4: no fumbles. This has a lot of come on the 130 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 4: road a place like this with the crowd, noise and 131 00:05:59,080 --> 00:05:59,839 Speaker 4: everything you're dealing with. 132 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, three penalties as well, you know, and I think 133 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 8: the field position. When you look at the field position 134 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 8: battle and reallys sess it, I don't think we did 135 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 8: well enough there. And then that's the key is you're 136 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 8: going to reflect back on how much of a difference 137 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:12,839 Speaker 8: that might have made for us if we've done a 138 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 8: better job there. But we took care of the football. 139 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 8: We're always trying to be plus two in that battle. 140 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:20,040 Speaker 8: So we only got one off of them three penalties. 141 00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 8: So I thought our guys were disciplined on the road 142 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:25,800 Speaker 8: in a tough environment. And so again there's things to 143 00:06:25,839 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 8: build on. But we don't expect to come in anywhere 144 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 8: and lose, and we're going to continue to find ways 145 00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:34,279 Speaker 8: to get in that winning calumn, build some confidence, build 146 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,279 Speaker 8: some momentum. We're right in the think of the division 147 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 8: right now, with a perfect opportunity to ar right in 148 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,080 Speaker 8: front of us this Thursday night against Pittsburgh. 149 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:41,360 Speaker 5: No question about a coach. 150 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,839 Speaker 4: Thanks for your time, appreciate everything you do for the city, 151 00:06:47,120 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 4: your team, and the fans. 152 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 3: Awesome thank you Zach after the game, and I think 153 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:54,080 Speaker 3: Dave to me one of the big things in terms 154 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 3: of reasons for optimism, you could argue the three touchdowns 155 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 3: last week against Detroit. Detroit had the big they were 156 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 3: banged up in the secondary, they just wanted to get 157 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 3: out of there, and there were some garbage time touchdowns. 158 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:07,040 Speaker 3: So that was debate of how real that really was. 159 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:08,920 Speaker 3: Obviously the coaches didn't think it was real. From what 160 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 3: Jake was able to do this week in the second 161 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: half felt more real. That's seven the seventeen play drive, 162 00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 3: the way that the fourth down conversions twice for touchdowns, 163 00:07:17,640 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: that felt real, tangible stuff that you could be carried 164 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 3: over going forward with the offense. 165 00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:25,720 Speaker 4: I agree. I agree with you. You know, there were a 166 00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 4: lot of things to build on, a lot of things 167 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 4: that they that they did well. Obviously, you've got your 168 00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 4: foundational players. They're not going to go away. We talked 169 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 4: about t the fans chanting tea. He made some big plays, 170 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:43,360 Speaker 4: big catches. Jamar Chase was I thought spectacular in ten 171 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 4: catches ninety seven yards. I think it was in a touchdown. 172 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 4: He made some unbelievable catches. Some of those like, how 173 00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:53,520 Speaker 4: the hell do you do that? How did he do that? 174 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 4: So he's he's in my mind, the best in the league, 175 00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 4: and he continues to play that way. I think the 176 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 4: frustration level in the locker room was palatable. A lot 177 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:08,920 Speaker 4: of guys were, you know, man, this is not what 178 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 4: we expected. We thought we'd be off to a much 179 00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,800 Speaker 4: better start, you know, and win the first two games. 180 00:08:14,880 --> 00:08:16,760 Speaker 4: Zach Taylor had never done that before as a head 181 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 4: coach for the Cincinnati Bengals. But since then, it's sputtered 182 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:23,680 Speaker 4: and stuttered. There's no question the motor is uh is 183 00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:27,679 Speaker 4: leaking oil and uh, it's it's it's just the performance again, 184 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,200 Speaker 4: is just not consistent enough in all three phases. 185 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,720 Speaker 3: I've never final thought. Before we hear from Joe Flack 186 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,200 Speaker 3: on our next segment, I've never scripted an offensive game plan, 187 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,400 Speaker 3: of course, but my suggestion would be to scrap the 188 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 3: Jets sweep on the first play of the game from 189 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:43,959 Speaker 3: my from my game planning aner. 190 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,440 Speaker 4: I mean, you know, when you think about it, all 191 00:08:47,520 --> 00:08:49,840 Speaker 4: the things they could have done with Joe Flacco, you know, 192 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 4: uh and and okay, let's get I think the biggest 193 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: problem they have is they got no running game, no 194 00:08:55,640 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 4: consistency in the in the running game. I mean that 195 00:08:58,320 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 4: that part of it is. I mean, it's the average 196 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 4: I think three point four per carry it. It was 197 00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,760 Speaker 4: atrocious and sixteen carries fifty five big yards three point 198 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 4: four per carry. Chase Brown had forty two of them. 199 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,720 Speaker 4: Longest rush of the day thirteen yards. I mean they 200 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:18,720 Speaker 4: couldn't get out of the wrong way in the running game, 201 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 4: and I think that is the thing that they need 202 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 4: to get corrected and corrected quickly. That warm has to 203 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 4: turn right. 204 00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 3: Now we are up and running. We've got plenty to 205 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 3: get to over the course of these three hours. Up next, 206 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 3: we'll hear from Joe Cool Joe Flacco as we continue 207 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,680 Speaker 3: on Bengals Line of the Bengals Radio Network and seven 208 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 3: hundred WLW. Back out on this Monday night of Bengals 209 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 3: Line on the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW 210 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 3: im Lance Pacalister. He is Dave Lapham, sorting through yesterday 211 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 3: at lambeau Field, looking ahead to Thursday night at a 212 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 3: showdown against those Pittsburgh Steelers. Joe Flacco yesterday twenty nine 213 00:09:56,679 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 3: of forty five, two hundred and nineteen yards, two touchdow down's, 214 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 3: no interceptions. He was sacked once. Quarterback rating of ninety 215 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,360 Speaker 3: point nine. Here's the QB with Dave after the game. 216 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 4: Joe, I guess first, first question, I guess the simplest question, 217 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:13,839 Speaker 4: how do you feel? How do you think you played? 218 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:14,320 Speaker 6: Feel well? 219 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:16,840 Speaker 10: I think I I think I settled in a little bit. 220 00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:18,719 Speaker 10: I think as an offense, we settled in a little bit, 221 00:10:18,840 --> 00:10:20,599 Speaker 10: probably sometime in the second quarter, and came out and 222 00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 10: played a good second half. But yeah, it's always disappointing 223 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 10: when you come up short. 224 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 4: So you played them what three weeks ago? I guess 225 00:10:28,440 --> 00:10:31,760 Speaker 4: it was. Did you see anything different? Were they running 226 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 4: the same things or the same personnel grouping a little 227 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:35,960 Speaker 4: on their stuff? 228 00:10:37,360 --> 00:10:39,080 Speaker 6: I think they obviously pay a little bit close. 229 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 10: Attention to our receivers, you know, so they find different 230 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:44,439 Speaker 10: ways to do that, but ultimately they run their defense. 231 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,719 Speaker 4: So when you say different ways to pay attention to 232 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:51,280 Speaker 4: your receivers, different different coverages, different leverages. 233 00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:52,520 Speaker 10: Of the year, they were where they were making sure 234 00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 10: seven was shading towards them at times, you know, things 235 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:55,520 Speaker 10: like that. 236 00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:59,960 Speaker 4: So with this under your belt, I mean, I thought 237 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 4: you played hell of a football game considering the circumstances. 238 00:11:04,080 --> 00:11:06,800 Speaker 4: I've never seen this before. I've never seen anybody do 239 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 4: what you did. Do you have you ever heard of 240 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 4: anybody doing what you did? 241 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,880 Speaker 10: Listen, I don't think there's anything in this league, that 242 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 10: hasn't necessarily that hasn't been done. So I'm sure there's 243 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,560 Speaker 10: something out there similar to this, but yeah, but. 244 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 4: Not, but that's for sure. And I thought you played 245 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: at an exceptionally high level. I thought you played a 246 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,599 Speaker 4: winning football I really do. No turnovers, no turnovers in 247 00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 4: the football game, no interceptions, no fumbles lost. I think 248 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 4: that's huge. 249 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:32,600 Speaker 10: When you do those things, you obviously give yourself a chance, 250 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,600 Speaker 10: you know, come, you know, down the stretch. 251 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 6: And obviously they're a good football team. 252 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,200 Speaker 10: And we didn't necessarily start the way we wanted to, 253 00:11:38,240 --> 00:11:39,680 Speaker 10: but I do think we were able to settle in 254 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,160 Speaker 10: and let the game come to us, and and it 255 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 10: did in a way. You know, we were sitting there 256 00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:48,120 Speaker 10: twenty four eighteen, you know, and against the good football 257 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 10: team and starting the way we did that. That's this league. 258 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 10: It comes down to the last four minutes pretty much 259 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,760 Speaker 10: every game you play in. And I think we gave 260 00:11:57,800 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 10: ourselves a chance and we just weren't. 261 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 6: Able to do enough to to kind of get over. 262 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 4: The home parsons Gary. I think I they got some 263 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 4: relatious pass rushers on the edge and inside as well, 264 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:08,280 Speaker 4: and you guys, you guys contained at all. 265 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:09,559 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think we did a pretty good job. 266 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 10: Anytime you go against those guys, you know you're gonna 267 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 10: for a tough one, but you got to give it 268 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 10: the guys up front, and then not only the guys. 269 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,400 Speaker 6: Up front give them, but you got to give it 270 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 6: to the tight. 271 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,320 Speaker 10: Ends, the running backs for the way they were able 272 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:22,000 Speaker 10: to help. I thought they did a great job. 273 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 3: Joe Flacco after the game at Davebead I told you 274 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,760 Speaker 3: going in Joe in that much of a crash course 275 00:12:27,880 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 3: learning of the offense would would produce a game with 276 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 3: no turnovers and only be sacked one time. Everybody would 277 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 3: have signed up for that, no doubt, no doubt. 278 00:12:35,679 --> 00:12:39,440 Speaker 4: I mean those numbers, particularly the the no turnovers, I 279 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 4: mean not giving the football up one time, not not 280 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 4: throwing away possessions. Usually you win those football games and 281 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 4: you and you win them handily. And the Bengals didn't 282 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:51,400 Speaker 4: get that done obviously, so I thought that part of it. 283 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 4: Joe Flacco is turnover adverse. I mean, there's no doubt 284 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 4: about that. He wants to make sure that he's not 285 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,600 Speaker 4: reason his football team loses the football game. Although you 286 00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:05,120 Speaker 4: know all the fans will look at it and beyond 287 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 4: the quarterback stock. You know, everybody's stock. Blah blah blah. 288 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 4: Quarterback takes too much heat when things go poorly, and 289 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 4: maybe sometimes not enough credit when it goes well. But 290 00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:17,679 Speaker 4: he knows that he understands the game. He's been in 291 00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:20,320 Speaker 4: the game for a long time and he knows the 292 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:24,319 Speaker 4: quarterback positions. A has a different cachet and people look 293 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 4: at it a lot differently. It's probably the most interesting 294 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 4: position in all of sports, the way gets credit and 295 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 4: blame and the way that that's handed out. 296 00:13:33,640 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 3: We were talking before the show. I was struck by 297 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:38,719 Speaker 3: his comments Thursday with the media when he met for 298 00:13:38,760 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 3: the first time, and not the x's and O stuff, 299 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 3: but more just how reflective he is on where he 300 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 3: is in his life right now at forty and still 301 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 3: loving the game of football and wanting to play it 302 00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,400 Speaker 3: as long as he can and the rest of his 303 00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 3: life will come when it comes. But they're just something 304 00:13:53,440 --> 00:13:57,520 Speaker 3: and in watching him, even in the pregame and during 305 00:13:57,520 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 3: the game yesterday, there's something very stoic and calm about him, 306 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 3: like icy, like what do you know that I don't know? 307 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:04,960 Speaker 4: The way he's looking at you. 308 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 3: But that comes with that, with with forty years in 309 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,960 Speaker 3: life and experience. There there's a common understanding of everything 310 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 3: compared to when you're twenty or twenty five. 311 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:17,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I think. I mean he's so stoic, you know, 312 00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,440 Speaker 4: he never changed his expression like we were talking about, 313 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:22,760 Speaker 4: you know, off the air, and I think that that's 314 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 4: a good thing, honestly, you know. And he puts so 315 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 4: much into this football game studying. I mean, it was 316 00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 4: unbelievable the number of hours that he was studying the 317 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:35,880 Speaker 4: game plan and the playbook with his wife. I mean 318 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 4: even when they were driving down from Cleveland. You know, 319 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:41,040 Speaker 4: they're in a car and they have a driver that 320 00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,200 Speaker 4: the Bengals provided and another driver drove their car to Cincinnati. 321 00:14:45,240 --> 00:14:48,360 Speaker 4: But I mean he's he's studying, and she's grilling them. 322 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 4: She's asking him questions, and. 323 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 3: She's giving him a play and he's reciting. 324 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 4: And for you know, give me the formation. I'll give 325 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,080 Speaker 4: you the play, and give me the play and I'll 326 00:14:57,120 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 4: give you the formation and any attachments to it motion, 327 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 4: anything that goes on there. So I mean it's the family. 328 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:09,560 Speaker 4: The Flacco family committed themselves to trying to make the 329 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,960 Speaker 4: first start that Joe Flacco had as a Cincinnati Bengals 330 00:15:13,960 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 4: successful one, and I think if the defense and special 331 00:15:17,000 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 4: teams had held up a little bit better, I think 332 00:15:18,640 --> 00:15:20,280 Speaker 4: Joe Flacco would have had a win in Game one. 333 00:15:20,640 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, of all the things we talked about going in, 334 00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 3: you had you been told no turnovers, only one sack, 335 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,560 Speaker 3: you would have taken it. Had somebody said, going in 336 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,280 Speaker 3: on a short week, learning the offense, learning his teammates' names, 337 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 3: Joe Flacco is going to be asked to throw it 338 00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: forty five times, I would have said, well, there's no 339 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: way you don't ask him to do that. Drops back 340 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 3: forty six times. 341 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 4: On the day. Unbelievable, twenty nine completions, forty five attempts, 342 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 4: two hundred and nineteen yards, two touchdowns, no picks, Like 343 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:51,960 Speaker 4: you said, quarterback rating of over ninety ninety point nine, 344 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:56,240 Speaker 4: almost ninety one. The thing is, only sixteen times they 345 00:15:56,320 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 4: rushed the football. Chase Brown's the leading ball carrier, nine 346 00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 4: rush attempts. They didn't have a ball carry that carried 347 00:16:03,000 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 4: it double digits in terms of attempts. You know, I mean, 348 00:16:05,800 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 4: that's that's just not gonna get it done. That's not 349 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 4: gonna cut it, that's not gonna You're not probing enough. 350 00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 4: You're not finding out, you know, soft spots in the 351 00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 4: defense that you might be able to take advantage of. 352 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 4: Chase Brown average four point seven per lug and along 353 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:24,520 Speaker 4: of thirteen excuse me, thirteen yards. But I mean, like 354 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:29,119 Speaker 4: I was saying, sixteen runs forty five passes. That's an imbalance. 355 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 4: You know, any any game that Joe Flacco's playing in, 356 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 4: if he has to go back, drop back, in the pocket, 357 00:16:35,520 --> 00:16:37,960 Speaker 4: and he is a pocket passer, he's not a mobile guy. 358 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 4: He'll be the first to amit that. And particularly at 359 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 4: forty years old. You know, he wasn't mobile when he 360 00:16:42,560 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 4: was twenty five. At forty years old, he's definitely not mobile. 361 00:16:46,320 --> 00:16:49,000 Speaker 4: So to make him throw the football forty five times 362 00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 4: in his first game with the team on the road 363 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:56,960 Speaker 4: at Lambeau, that is historic and just the fan base 364 00:16:57,040 --> 00:17:00,720 Speaker 4: is going nuts. I mean, that's a tough task, order man. 365 00:17:01,160 --> 00:17:04,000 Speaker 3: I also liked final thought. There were times where it 366 00:17:04,040 --> 00:17:06,159 Speaker 3: was obvious he knew the play was going nowhere, and 367 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 3: rather than try to create something and maybe make a mistake, 368 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,040 Speaker 3: throw it away, throw it away, throw it in the ground. 369 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 3: Just move on to the next play. That one's not working. 370 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 3: Let's just move to the next one. And that's something 371 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:18,560 Speaker 3: that with the experience. It comes along with the experience. 372 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 4: Absolutely, you know, experience tells him that you don't put 373 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 4: the ball on jeopardy. He's had good coaching, I think 374 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:25,720 Speaker 4: in that regard, probably maybe all the way back to 375 00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 4: high school, high school, college and in the NFL. It's like, 376 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:32,880 Speaker 4: you know, do not give them extra possessions. Don't take 377 00:17:32,920 --> 00:17:35,440 Speaker 4: possessions away from us and give them to the opposition. 378 00:17:35,560 --> 00:17:36,400 Speaker 4: That's a no no. 379 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 3: We're rolling on this Monday night. We'll go to the 380 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 3: offensive line next here from Orlando Brown on Bengals Line 381 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:46,439 Speaker 3: of the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. We 382 00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 3: keep rolling along on this Monday night of Bengals Line. 383 00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:50,960 Speaker 3: We do it on the Bengals Radio Network in seven 384 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 3: hundred WLW. 385 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:54,879 Speaker 4: I'm Lance Pactalist. You're doing it with Dave Lepham and 386 00:17:54,960 --> 00:18:01,400 Speaker 4: Lance Kettering. Health the injury report and always hate doing injuries, man. 387 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 4: You don't like talking about guys that got hurt during 388 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,040 Speaker 4: the course of the football game, particularly if they're gonna 389 00:18:06,040 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 4: be out for an extended period of time. But it 390 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 4: doesn't seem like other than GASICKI, who you know, had 391 00:18:10,720 --> 00:18:15,000 Speaker 4: that pectoral injury. Those can be tricky. You know, there's 392 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 4: a big pectoral muscle and then minor muscles that support 393 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:22,399 Speaker 4: that bigger muscle. So depending on what muscle it was, 394 00:18:22,440 --> 00:18:25,520 Speaker 4: which one, how serious the injury is. And you know 395 00:18:25,560 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 4: when they say a polled pectoral, that's by definition of 396 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,600 Speaker 4: bullet is for a second third degree tear. Hopefully it's 397 00:18:32,640 --> 00:18:35,479 Speaker 4: not torn, but if there's a depending on the degree 398 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,119 Speaker 4: of the of the muscle pull, you know, it might 399 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:40,280 Speaker 4: be a little bit of time. Particularly with the receiver. 400 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 4: You know, it's like we get the hands up over 401 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 4: the head and catch the football periodically and not hopefully 402 00:18:45,600 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 4: not all the time. But and that injury report, I 403 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:52,000 Speaker 4: think everybody else most hands on deck. The offensive line 404 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 4: was beating up a little bit going into this football game, 405 00:18:54,400 --> 00:19:00,320 Speaker 4: and hopefully they're gonna lick their wounds collectively. And more 406 00:19:00,320 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 4: people on the football field and more options for the 407 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 4: offensive line coach and head coach to consider and contemplate. 408 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,680 Speaker 4: And it's all presented by Kettering Health, the official healthcare 409 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 4: provider of the Cincinnati Bengals, providing the best care for 410 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 4: the best fans. 411 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:17,399 Speaker 3: Wow, we're speaking offensive line. Let's go up front. Here's 412 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,399 Speaker 3: Dan with Orlando Brown Junior. 413 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,520 Speaker 9: What did Joe show you in the second half? 414 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 11: Oh, man, I mean just who he's been for the 415 00:19:24,320 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 11: last eighteen years. A tough player that's going to stay. 416 00:19:26,800 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 11: Of course, you know that's who he is. And and 417 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,480 Speaker 11: you know, he just got here a week ago, you know, 418 00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 11: I mean barely that, I guess, and it's able to 419 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 11: come out here and call the game like he did 420 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:38,960 Speaker 11: and show up when we needed a most I mean 421 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 11: pass off to him. 422 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 9: It looked like his comfort level grew as the game 423 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:45,320 Speaker 9: went along. Was it like that in the huddle? 424 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 5: Yeah? 425 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 11: Absolutely, And you know, to be honest, I feel like 426 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 11: he was comfortable early, just just getting settled down and 427 00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 11: being himself. 428 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 5: And you know, as he gets more. 429 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,920 Speaker 11: Time with you know, coach Pitch and coach Taylor, I mean, 430 00:19:58,160 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 11: sky's the limit. 431 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,760 Speaker 9: The way they I performed in the second half. Does 432 00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 9: it give you growing confidence that going home for three 433 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 9: straight home games, you guys can go on a run? 434 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,480 Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah, no, man, I mean we're close. 435 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:11,000 Speaker 11: We're not close enough who we are close, And you know, 436 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 11: we got to figure out a way as a team 437 00:20:12,920 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 11: to finish, to start faster and be a more effective 438 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:18,880 Speaker 11: early man and a lot of these games that we've 439 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:21,160 Speaker 11: been in. It won't be dogfights in the fourth quarter. 440 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 11: We'll be playing four minute offense. 441 00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,320 Speaker 9: Is there something you can put your finger on for 442 00:20:25,359 --> 00:20:28,359 Speaker 9: the first half and why the first half struggles have happened? 443 00:20:28,480 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 11: Uh, to watch the film, But you know it always 444 00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 11: comes down to finish an execution. 445 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 5: Man. You know it's on us as players to do that. 446 00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:40,159 Speaker 9: Jamar Chase ten catches an incredible touchdown catch. At the 447 00:20:40,240 --> 00:20:42,400 Speaker 9: end of the game. T had five catches as well. 448 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 9: It looked like Joe did a great job of saying, 449 00:20:44,840 --> 00:20:46,560 Speaker 9: all right, we've got two of the best in the league, 450 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:47,360 Speaker 9: let's get him the ball. 451 00:20:47,440 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, for sure. 452 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,680 Speaker 11: And I mean honestly, if I was at quarterback, I'll 453 00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 11: take the same approach. 454 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,480 Speaker 9: So all right, what are your feelings with a quick 455 00:20:54,480 --> 00:20:56,639 Speaker 9: turnaround and a huge game coming up against the division 456 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 9: rival on Thursday? 457 00:20:57,640 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 11: Excited to be home, you know what I mean?

After the game, Dave, is 461 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 3: it fair to say, based on what you saw first 462 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:12,119 Speaker 3: half into the second half? Did the does the arrow 463 00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 3: point up for how the offensive line kind of came 464 00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 3: along with Joe Flacco and was better in the second half. 465 00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 4: I think so, I think so Lance, you know, and 466 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 4: people are like, oh, yeah, come on, you know, you're 467 00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 4: looking for excuses, You're you know, you're getting too picky 468 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,160 Speaker 4: you in here. But familiarity with his cadence, with how 469 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:34,359 Speaker 4: he identifies players or in opposition players I'm talking about 470 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 4: with respect to fronts, how they're aligned, any adjustments that 471 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:43,040 Speaker 4: they might make in that alignment. And then also, you know, 472 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:45,800 Speaker 4: learning the language. I mean, you know, you can't if 473 00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 4: in fact, he does stumble on something from a formational 474 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:51,760 Speaker 4: standpoint and calls it something else, because where. 475 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 3: He's been replacing, everybody's looking like, yeah, what play is that? 476 00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like, don't don't you know, don't get your 477 00:21:58,000 --> 00:22:00,960 Speaker 4: panties in a bunch of man, you know, don't you know, 478 00:22:01,080 --> 00:22:03,680 Speaker 4: don't don't get all wang chunged about it, because it'll 479 00:22:03,920 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 4: it'll work itself out. And like I said, I thought, 480 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,360 Speaker 4: I thought he was not their biggest problem by far. 481 00:22:09,480 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 4: I thought the offensive line in fact, was a bigger 482 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,359 Speaker 4: problem for him and for the outcome of the football game. 483 00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 4: Uh than than uh than Joe Flacco's play. 484 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 3: We talked last week about the offensive line and cohesiveness 485 00:22:22,040 --> 00:22:25,200 Speaker 3: and playing together, and in another shuffle this week, Dylan 486 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:27,119 Speaker 3: Fairchild is out, so Reisner has to go over to 487 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 3: the left side, and there's just that's that's a real thing. 488 00:22:30,840 --> 00:22:33,600 Speaker 3: That's just the reality of when the pieces are moving around, 489 00:22:34,080 --> 00:22:36,040 Speaker 3: it's tough to get settled in use. 490 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,679 Speaker 4: To everything exactly. I mean getting used to is a 491 00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:40,359 Speaker 4: good term. And you know, you get used to the 492 00:22:40,359 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 4: guy next to you. And you know, when you when 493 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:46,680 Speaker 4: you played next to a guy for a long period 494 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,960 Speaker 4: of time, a year or multiple years, uh, you know, 495 00:22:50,000 --> 00:22:51,600 Speaker 4: it's like rolling out of bed in the morning. You 496 00:22:51,600 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 4: know exactly what to expect. You know, it's like you 497 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:58,560 Speaker 4: go through the same routine and your practice preparations the 498 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:01,560 Speaker 4: same on a week to week up based and you 499 00:23:01,600 --> 00:23:05,200 Speaker 4: know there's no uh, no monkey wrenches as such. They're 500 00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,000 Speaker 4: still in the infancy stages of getting to know each 501 00:23:08,040 --> 00:23:11,280 Speaker 4: other in terms of, uh play on the football field 502 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,200 Speaker 4: and individually, I mean the kind of people they are, 503 00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:17,080 Speaker 4: the kind of guys they are. Who likes what, who 504 00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 4: doesn't like what? Who likes to make a call in 505 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 4: a critical situation? What does he usually what's his go 506 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 4: to call, what does he like to stay away from 507 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 4: in those instances as well. So there's a lot to learn, 508 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,760 Speaker 4: and uh, there's a lot of cohesion that has to 509 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:33,960 Speaker 4: go on up front, and they're in the process of 510 00:23:34,000 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 4: trying to get that done. 511 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:37,320 Speaker 3: I think you brought up a great point earlier in 512 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,040 Speaker 3: this segment that is probably not talked about or understood enough, 513 00:23:41,040 --> 00:23:44,359 Speaker 3: and that's the difference in cadence, Kenny Anderson's cadence to 514 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:47,639 Speaker 3: Turk Schoeder to Buby's sias and there there is something 515 00:23:47,640 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 3: to that. It's just not calling the play there. There's 516 00:23:50,080 --> 00:23:52,920 Speaker 3: inflection there. I mean, that's that's a thing exactly. 517 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:57,119 Speaker 4: Voice inflection pauses, you know, just even the sound of 518 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,560 Speaker 4: the voice. Yeah, you're used to hearing something for a 519 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:01,680 Speaker 4: long perioderiod of time, and what's that you know, that's 520 00:24:01,720 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 4: a little bit different. And then for Joe have to 521 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:07,200 Speaker 4: again we're talking about a lot of times the same 522 00:24:07,600 --> 00:24:11,480 Speaker 4: the same point, but Lambeau to have to go up there. Yeah, 523 00:24:11,600 --> 00:24:15,320 Speaker 4: your first game with all new players, new coaches, knew everything, 524 00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:18,800 Speaker 4: and you're in Lambeau having to communicate. That's one of 525 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 4: the tougher places to communicate in all of football, high school, college, 526 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 4: or the National Football League. So Joe Flacco had himself 527 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:28,720 Speaker 4: some serious challenges yesterday for sure. 528 00:24:28,880 --> 00:24:32,440 Speaker 3: You know, Micah Parsons was a big storyline going into 529 00:24:32,440 --> 00:24:34,399 Speaker 3: the game. He wound up with three tackles. He's not 530 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,760 Speaker 3: registered as a as a quarterback hit or certainly a 531 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 3: sack in the game book. But I think his his 532 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,800 Speaker 3: he made his presence felt. But he certainly didn't dominate, 533 00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 3: takeover or wreck the game. 534 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 4: Yes, exactly exactly. And you know the two things that 535 00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:50,959 Speaker 4: you hit on. He didn't take the game over. It 536 00:24:51,040 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 4: wasn't like oh Man, Parsons again at him pretty well, 537 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 4: and you know, tried to get him to anchor himself 538 00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 4: a little bit if you could. That's I think that's 539 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,320 Speaker 4: the key to success against him or any great pass rusher. 540 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 4: If you show you can run the ball right at 541 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:11,480 Speaker 4: him and make him concern himself with that, everything else 542 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 4: falls into place quite easily. 543 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,800 Speaker 3: Let's talk some defense when we come back. DJ Turner, 544 00:25:15,920 --> 00:25:18,719 Speaker 3: nice game, the DJ Turner game yesterday. More on that 545 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 3: you'll hear from him as we continue. It's Bengals Line 546 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 3: of the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. Hey 547 00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 3: we continue on this Monday night talking everything there is 548 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,120 Speaker 3: to talk about related to the Bengals from yesterday against 549 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 3: the Packers the Thursday night against those Pittsburgh Steelers. The 550 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 3: show is Bengals Line of the Bengals Radio Network. Thanks 551 00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,159 Speaker 3: for hanging out with us tonight. We've talked to offense. 552 00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:43,200 Speaker 3: Let's get back on the other side of the defensive 553 00:25:43,680 --> 00:25:45,520 Speaker 3: side of things for the Bengals yesterday. And what a 554 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:49,359 Speaker 3: performance by DJ Turner. I think five pass breakups. Officially 555 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 3: the credit to DJ Turner here is Dan Horde with. 556 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 9: Dj DJ five passes deflected today, including one that turned 557 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,440 Speaker 9: into an interception. What'd you think of your performs? 558 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 12: I think that had a good game. It was a 559 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,440 Speaker 12: good game, all right. 560 00:26:06,800 --> 00:26:10,280 Speaker 9: Joe Flacco in his first game in a Bengals uniform, 561 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 9: seemed like he got more and more comfortable as the 562 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:13,280 Speaker 9: game went along. 563 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,720 Speaker 13: Did you sense that, No, for sure, he definitely second half, 564 00:26:16,800 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 13: definitely got comfortable, gone to a groove, and you know 565 00:26:19,560 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 13: it was noticeable for everybody. 566 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 9: Poor feeling. Does that give you, guys in terms of 567 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,399 Speaker 9: confidence with Joe quarterback going forward? 568 00:26:25,480 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 5: Oh? 569 00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:25,920 Speaker 4: Great? 570 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 12: Like I said, we know we lost, but it's okay. 571 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:31,560 Speaker 13: You know, we want to stay together, keep building, keep stacking, 572 00:26:31,800 --> 00:26:34,199 Speaker 13: and you know, the offense, they build up momentum going 573 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:34,640 Speaker 13: to the week. 574 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 9: So you're not so good that defensive performance today. It 575 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 9: seemed like he got them into some long third downs 576 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:43,439 Speaker 9: and they would make a few backbreaking plays. Is that 577 00:26:43,560 --> 00:26:45,640 Speaker 9: Is that really what kind of hurts from a defensive 578 00:26:45,800 --> 00:26:46,600 Speaker 9: perspective today? 579 00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 6: Uh? 580 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 12: Yeah, we gotta go up to the field, you know. 581 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,199 Speaker 13: But like I said, we want to keep on stacking 582 00:26:51,720 --> 00:26:52,800 Speaker 13: and you know, stay together. 583 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 12: That's what we're gonna do. And you know, but like 584 00:26:55,000 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 12: I said, it is definitely we gotta go out the field. 585 00:26:57,800 --> 00:27:00,119 Speaker 9: Kept a big game on Thursday against the Steelers, and 586 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 9: it's the start of a three game Homestand is this 587 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 9: the opportunity to get right back into the hunt. 588 00:27:05,520 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 13: Not for sure, definitely looking forward to it. For the 589 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 13: most part, we got out healthy, so that's a good thing. 590 00:27:10,240 --> 00:27:13,159 Speaker 9: And you know, yeah, I'm going to go back to 591 00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 9: where I started with your performance. Did you feel like 592 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 9: it was one of your better games? I mean, five 593 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:20,359 Speaker 9: pass deflections in a game don't happen very often. 594 00:27:21,200 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, as made the play as I came 595 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 12: to me. 596 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 13: That's really the biggest thing I had this week or 597 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:28,720 Speaker 13: this game was whenever I had episode, I just made 598 00:27:29,280 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 13: to play on it. 599 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 9: I appreciate your time, Thank you. 600 00:27:32,160 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 4: It was. 601 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 3: It was a career day for DJ Turner, and you 602 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 3: gotta love Dave the fact that he's twenty four years old. 603 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 3: He's a third year here. If this defense is going 604 00:27:41,440 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 3: to get where it wants to go, it needs young 605 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,719 Speaker 3: guys to continue to develop and make plays. 606 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 4: And that was a big day from DJ Turner. It 607 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 4: really was. I mean, when you think about it, last 608 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:53,399 Speaker 4: getting your hand on the football five times, I mean 609 00:27:53,760 --> 00:27:57,199 Speaker 4: breaking passes up. You know a lot of times interceptions 610 00:27:57,240 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 4: come on tips. Geno Stones interception came on a chip, 611 00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 4: and you know, and when the ball is you know, 612 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:07,119 Speaker 4: airborne and fluttering around, it's anybody's football. So Al Golden, 613 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 4: I'm sure was pleased as punch with the game the 614 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 4: DJ Turner turned in for him, There's no question about it. 615 00:28:13,880 --> 00:28:17,359 Speaker 4: And he wants more of that. He wants even more 616 00:28:17,560 --> 00:28:20,960 Speaker 4: than he got from the DJ Turner and others. And 617 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:24,640 Speaker 4: I think the offensive line had trouble establishing the running game, 618 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,679 Speaker 4: and I thought the defensive line had some difficulties stopping 619 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 4: the run. I mean, the Green Bay Packers thirty three 620 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,400 Speaker 4: times they ran the football, are you kidding? Thirty three 621 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 4: times one hundred and fifty three yards four point six 622 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 4: per They rushed for two touchdowns, both of them were 623 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,600 Speaker 4: courtesy of Josh Jacobs. Eighteen rushes ninety three yards. I 624 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,960 Speaker 4: mean he came within a carry of one hundred yard 625 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 4: day over five yards per sixteen long. I mean, if 626 00:28:51,520 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 4: the Bengals don't get better upfront in terms of running 627 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:56,600 Speaker 4: the football and stopping the run, it's going to be 628 00:28:56,680 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 4: a long, long year. 629 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 3: And to those rush attempts by the Packers and it holds. 630 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 3: It was basically in line with their season. We talked 631 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 3: about it last week. They run at thirty three, they 632 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: threw it twenty six going into the game. It was 633 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 3: right about exactly even passes and rushes. Last year, for 634 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 3: the first time in twenty two years, they ran it 635 00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:18,760 Speaker 3: more than they passed it. That's just what Matt Lafleur 636 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:22,240 Speaker 3: has settled on with asking Jordan Loved to do this 637 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 3: and asking the running game to do this, and you 638 00:29:24,360 --> 00:29:26,800 Speaker 3: put it on the scale and it's it's pretty much balanced. 639 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,360 Speaker 4: Yeah. Matt Lafleur, even though he's a younger coach, he's 640 00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 4: old school man. He believes in having a balanced attack, 641 00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 4: you know, running the football. Yeah, in his mind it's 642 00:29:36,000 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 4: a fifty to fifty proposition. You run the ball half 643 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 4: the time you throw the ball the other half. You know, 644 00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,840 Speaker 4: in the running game. In his mindset, when he does 645 00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,360 Speaker 4: game planning takes priority because he likes to run the ball. 646 00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:52,200 Speaker 4: In his passing game, he likes play action pass. So 647 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:56,640 Speaker 4: you can't play action pass. It's useless to you know, 648 00:29:56,720 --> 00:29:59,520 Speaker 4: fake a run to a running back when you haven't 649 00:29:59,600 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: gotten anything established. I mean, nobody respects it. Everybody's dropping 650 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:06,400 Speaker 4: back in the coverage right away, so they, you know, 651 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:09,720 Speaker 4: Lafleur knows for his offense to click, he's got to 652 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:10,760 Speaker 4: get that running game going. 653 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,360 Speaker 3: First, take a time out, head down the stretch. We 654 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 3: are cruising through our first hour, first of three tonight. 655 00:30:17,040 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 4: Thanks for being with us. 656 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:20,920 Speaker 3: It's Bengals Line on the Bengals Radio Network in seven 657 00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:28,920 Speaker 3: hundred WLW. All right, and down the stretch. About to 658 00:30:28,920 --> 00:30:31,040 Speaker 3: put our number one in the books. Tonight, We've got 659 00:30:31,120 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 3: three big hours to unfold, talking Bengals. What happened yesterday 660 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:37,080 Speaker 3: at Lambeau, What could happen Thursday night at pay Corps 661 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,200 Speaker 3: when the Bengals take on those Pittsburgh Steelers. It's Bengals 662 00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:43,320 Speaker 3: line on the Bengals Radio Network Liance Bacallister, Dave Lapham, 663 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 3: Dave Let's circle back around to the defense. And one 664 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,560 Speaker 3: injury to keep an eye on on that side of 665 00:30:48,560 --> 00:30:51,360 Speaker 3: the ball is Trey Hendrickson goes out in with the 666 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 3: back injury. We don't see him for the second half. 667 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:58,160 Speaker 3: And you know, Trey, he may get dinged and leaf 668 00:30:58,240 --> 00:31:00,560 Speaker 3: for a play, but Trey goes back in like mad man. 669 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 3: The fact he didn't for the entire second half leaves 670 00:31:04,080 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 3: me a little bit concerned with a back for a 671 00:31:06,120 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 3: quick turnaround on Thursday night. 672 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:11,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, and back injuries they can be dicey man, I 673 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,240 Speaker 4: mean they really can. It's like, all right, well, is 674 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 4: it a spinal column issue? Is it vertebrae? What do 675 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 4: we have going here? You know? And for him to, 676 00:31:22,880 --> 00:31:26,880 Speaker 4: like you said, in a very important football game, for 677 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:30,280 Speaker 4: him to miss the whole second half, that's significant. And 678 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 4: he looked like he was flying back okay, fairly comfortably. 679 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,880 Speaker 4: Didn't look like he had any any issues going on 680 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,800 Speaker 4: there in terms of like a brace or a heating 681 00:31:41,880 --> 00:31:45,720 Speaker 4: pad and that type of that type of paraphernalia that 682 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 4: that you're gonna have to deal with if you do 683 00:31:47,680 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 4: have a serious back injury. But again, back injury you 684 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 4: just don't mess with. You make sure if he does 685 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 4: have to take a week'd be painful. You know, I 686 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 4: know he probably definitely wants to play again to Pittsburgh Steelers, 687 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 4: a big division rival, and uh, he loves sacking the 688 00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:07,960 Speaker 4: quarterback against the Pittsburgh Steelers and Mike Tomlin. There's no 689 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 4: question about that. And like we were talking about on 690 00:32:11,320 --> 00:32:13,320 Speaker 4: the air and off the year, he is playing the 691 00:32:13,440 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 4: run one thousand better. 692 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 3: I mean, there's no plasure and you know that what 693 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,320 Speaker 3: of the knocks against him this offseason? When the debate 694 00:32:20,400 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 3: was do the Bengals pay trade to let go? Some argued, al, 695 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 3: he's two one dimensional. If you look he's even going 696 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,240 Speaker 3: back to last year, he's become much better and much 697 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:30,800 Speaker 3: more well rounded as a player. 698 00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:33,520 Speaker 4: For past stand I agree, he's a complete football player, 699 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,720 Speaker 4: you know. I mean he gives you, He gives you 700 00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 4: a production and tremendous effort in both areas against the 701 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:43,800 Speaker 4: pass and the run, and coaches very much appreciate that. 702 00:32:43,920 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 4: You know, if they know on a weekly basis, a 703 00:32:46,080 --> 00:32:48,360 Speaker 4: week in and week out, that this guy's gonna be 704 00:32:48,400 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 4: son Wood and he's going to be doing this and 705 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,600 Speaker 4: he's gonna take pride in his profession, which there's no 706 00:32:54,680 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 4: doubt that Trey Henderson does that. I mean, he's an 707 00:32:56,960 --> 00:33:02,960 Speaker 4: extremely prideful football player. And so you know, I think 708 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,240 Speaker 4: I think he'll be back sooner rather than later. 709 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 3: The big boost would come with whether Trake returns or not. 710 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:13,360 Speaker 3: If they could get Shamar Stewart back on Thursday night, 711 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,760 Speaker 3: and I think it's been four weeks now with the 712 00:33:15,800 --> 00:33:19,400 Speaker 3: ankle to get him back and and then ask more 713 00:33:19,440 --> 00:33:22,160 Speaker 3: of Miles Murphy, whether trades they or not. They need 714 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 3: they need more from Murphy and they could really use 715 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:26,360 Speaker 3: Shamar Stewart back absolutely. 716 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,400 Speaker 4: I mean they need more productivity from the group. You know, 717 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,040 Speaker 4: a synergistic effect one plus one equals three. You know, 718 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 4: had another one at equals five instead of four. You know, 719 00:33:38,280 --> 00:33:43,680 Speaker 4: it's like Shamar Stewart that that. You know, ankle issues 720 00:33:43,680 --> 00:33:47,480 Speaker 4: and foot issues can be hugely problematic. I mean it's 721 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 4: like you get a big body and gravity's taken all 722 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:53,360 Speaker 4: that weight you know, down to the to the ankle 723 00:33:53,400 --> 00:33:57,840 Speaker 4: and feet, and uh, sometimes it doesn't want to cooperate. 724 00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 4: You know, it's it's like when you know, what do 725 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 4: you what do you doing to me? So hopefully he's 726 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,840 Speaker 4: been real good about his therapy, his treatments and all that, 727 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:11,240 Speaker 4: starting to practice, started to do some things on the field. 728 00:34:11,640 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 4: Hopefully that that graft continues to go up. 729 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:15,920 Speaker 3: You know, while we're talking injuries, and you mentioned Mike 730 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:19,880 Speaker 3: Sicky in the last segment, while he was injured, Tanner 731 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:23,160 Speaker 3: Hudson took advantage of an opportunity yesterday really nice gave 732 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,160 Speaker 3: He had four his first four catches of the season 733 00:34:25,200 --> 00:34:28,600 Speaker 3: on five targets. And when I saw four on five targets, 734 00:34:28,640 --> 00:34:30,680 Speaker 3: I remember back to last year. It seemed like every 735 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:32,960 Speaker 3: single time they threw it to Tanner Hudson, he caught it. 736 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,840 Speaker 3: And I looked it up and they threw it to 737 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:37,880 Speaker 3: him twenty three times last year he caught it nineteen. 738 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:41,720 Speaker 3: He's a guy you can count on who hasn't really 739 00:34:41,880 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 3: he's been more flying around on the periphery and entered 740 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:45,320 Speaker 3: the picture. 741 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:47,799 Speaker 4: Yesterday he did. He had a touchdown catch, you know, 742 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:52,200 Speaker 4: and yeah, he's one of those guys that he didn't 743 00:34:52,239 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 4: have huge production in terms of yards. Four catches for 744 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,879 Speaker 4: ten yards, so you know nothing right home about there. 745 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 4: Eight of them came on on one reception, so he 746 00:35:02,719 --> 00:35:06,240 Speaker 4: had a bunch of you know, little conversions third down conversion, 747 00:35:06,239 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 4: third and one get him. The football move to change 748 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 4: one touchdown catch was short yardage variety. Uh and so. 749 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,160 Speaker 4: But the thing, the thing that all quarterbacks love about him. 750 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:21,439 Speaker 4: Joe Burrow has talked about it to me more than once, 751 00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:25,240 Speaker 4: and I think Joe Flacco after the game was talking 752 00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 4: about it as well, that he is exactly where he's 753 00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:29,799 Speaker 4: supposed to be when he's supposed to be there. He 754 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:32,240 Speaker 4: is one of the most reliable guys in that regard 755 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:35,760 Speaker 4: on the football team. And quarterbacks, believe me, they love 756 00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:36,879 Speaker 4: that big time. 757 00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 3: The defensive line back to talking about Trey Hendrickson and 758 00:35:42,400 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 3: Miles Murphy and Shamar Stewart, there were just that there 759 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:50,560 Speaker 3: were moments where a mistackle or a leak through it 760 00:35:50,760 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 3: just opened up the damn and it just you just 761 00:35:54,880 --> 00:35:57,080 Speaker 3: you just needed that to be more. 762 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 4: Than it than it was yesterday. That's that was a 763 00:35:59,400 --> 00:36:02,360 Speaker 4: topic of conversation on the flight home. The miss tackles. 764 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:03,760 Speaker 4: I mean, there was a lot of buzz. 765 00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 3: Man, I can't imagine what the number is going to 766 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 3: be when it comes to do it, I was gonna say, 767 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:07,920 Speaker 3: it's gotta be double. 768 00:36:07,960 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 4: Do I agree with you? I mean, and uh, the 769 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:13,680 Speaker 4: players were talking about it amongst themselves. The coaches or 770 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 4: defensive coaches were talking about it. The players and defensive 771 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,759 Speaker 4: coaches were we're talking about it, and uh, you know 772 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 4: when they when they basically were handing out the computers, 773 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,920 Speaker 4: you know, to watch the video of the of the 774 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 4: game that that was. That was a big topic of conversation. 775 00:36:28,600 --> 00:36:31,080 Speaker 4: That was one of the most uh, one of their 776 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 4: poor tackling performances of the season for sure. 777 00:36:34,000 --> 00:36:38,360 Speaker 3: One hour done to our next the second hour headlined 778 00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 3: by Jimar Chase.

Is 836 00:39:06,920 --> 00:39:10,080 Speaker 14: that the next part of the chemistry going forward? You 837 00:39:10,080 --> 00:39:11,640 Speaker 14: start pushing it down the fields. 838 00:39:11,800 --> 00:39:14,879 Speaker 15: We we're still building, y, We we can't. We can't 839 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 15: do everything off top, but we're still building right now 840 00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:18,759 Speaker 15: and we're only gonna get. 841 00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 12: Better from here. 842 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 15: It's just still the first game and it's more games 843 00:39:20,719 --> 00:39:21,160 Speaker 15: for us to go. 844 00:39:21,320 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 14: Or there were so many guys in this room who 845 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,719 Speaker 14: are used to winning. When you lose four in a row, 846 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:25,879 Speaker 14: how are you handling. 847 00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 15: Its adversity right now? 848 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 5: But you know. 849 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,520 Speaker 15: What's gonna happen at the end of the day will 850 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:37,160 Speaker 15: be we can't.

We be 852 00:39:38,840 --> 00:39:42,839 Speaker 15: coming up against against the stealers, so you gotta look 853 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,840 Speaker 15: at the film, do corrections, find out what we like 854 00:39:44,880 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 15: best with Joe at quarterback, and move on. 855 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:49,200 Speaker 14: Zach keeps saying he feels like you guys are close. 856 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 14: He feels like you guys are very much still in this. 857 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:52,040 Speaker 14: You're shaking your head. 858 00:39:52,080 --> 00:39:53,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, you agree with him? 859 00:39:53,400 --> 00:39:54,479 Speaker 5: Yeah percent? Yeah? 860 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:55,120 Speaker 4: Why so? 861 00:39:56,600 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 15: I mean that's the most it's the most probably offensive 862 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 15: yards and rushing yards we had for a little minute, 863 00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:06,600 Speaker 15: and it is Joe's first game, and we left a 864 00:40:06,600 --> 00:40:09,000 Speaker 15: lot out there. We didn't really leave a lot out there, 865 00:40:09,000 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 15: but we made a lot of plays. We could have 866 00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:11,799 Speaker 15: had more out there. 867 00:40:11,960 --> 00:40:14,160 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase after the game with the media, thanks to 868 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:17,399 Speaker 3: Joe Daneman for passing along from Fox nineteen and and 869 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:24,480 Speaker 3: man the telepathic wave between the two. Jamar Chase even 870 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 3: said there were moments where he told Joe, based on 871 00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:29,560 Speaker 3: the coverage he saw change the play here, and they 872 00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:33,919 Speaker 3: created stuff on their own, which, as Jamar pointed out, 873 00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 3: he had twelve reps with Joe. 874 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,280 Speaker 4: Flaccoy practiced last week because he was sick. 875 00:40:37,520 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 3: But the fact that they had the confidence to get 876 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:42,160 Speaker 3: on a page together and make things happen showed me 877 00:40:42,200 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 3: something yesterday. 878 00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:45,920 Speaker 4: No doubt. I mean twelve reps during the week, that's crazy, 879 00:40:45,920 --> 00:40:49,399 Speaker 4: and then twelve targets in the game, targeting as many 880 00:40:49,400 --> 00:40:51,600 Speaker 4: times in the game as he threw to him the 881 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:55,839 Speaker 4: entire week. But you got two Pro Bowl guys, you know, 882 00:40:56,160 --> 00:41:01,000 Speaker 4: multiple time Pro Bowl guys. So they take great pride 883 00:41:01,440 --> 00:41:04,160 Speaker 4: in their knowledge of the game of football and their 884 00:41:04,200 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 4: ability to take that knowledge and execute physically. And they 885 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:11,680 Speaker 4: both have extreme talents from a physical standpoint, I mean 886 00:41:11,960 --> 00:41:15,040 Speaker 4: Flacco's big talent is his arm strength. I mean he 887 00:41:15,120 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 4: can spin it, he can rifle the football. He's got 888 00:41:17,880 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 4: a rocket hanging off of that right shoulder. And Jamar 889 00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:24,600 Speaker 4: Chad Chase can catch anything. And he's a big, strong 890 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 4: body that can run any route in the in the 891 00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 4: route tree. And he takes tremendous pride in that he 892 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 4: hits the weight room hard. His legs are as strong 893 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:35,440 Speaker 4: as anybody's on the football team. When he plants his 894 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 4: foot and cuts violently, I mean he gets separation. And 895 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:43,120 Speaker 4: for those two guys to be professional enough to look 896 00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 4: at each other on the field and you know, like 897 00:41:46,600 --> 00:41:48,839 Speaker 4: a nod and yeah, what we were talking about when 898 00:41:48,840 --> 00:41:51,120 Speaker 4: we were on the sideline over there talking on the bench, 899 00:41:51,440 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 4: this is it. This is what we're talking about. And 900 00:41:53,280 --> 00:41:55,279 Speaker 4: you know, a little knot in the nod back and 901 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:58,040 Speaker 4: they get on the same page and execute. That's That's 902 00:41:58,080 --> 00:42:00,520 Speaker 4: that's heavy duty stuff, man. That's that's big time and 903 00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:02,920 Speaker 4: coaches have to be thrilled with that. 904 00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 3: I was struck by when Joe was talking about learning 905 00:42:07,440 --> 00:42:10,440 Speaker 3: throwing to Chase and Higgins, things he notices and how 906 00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 3: they snatch the ball and how strong their hands are. 907 00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:14,120 Speaker 3: And he says a lot of times you throw to 908 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 3: a guy and they'll catch you with their body. He said, 909 00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 3: Tea on that quick slant with his hands, and just 910 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 3: how strong they are. And it was just it was 911 00:42:20,600 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 3: interesting as much as an appreciation we have for the 912 00:42:22,800 --> 00:42:25,879 Speaker 3: Bengals receivers to see the quarterback for the first time 913 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:28,600 Speaker 3: throwing to him, how it's so obvious to him. 914 00:42:28,600 --> 00:42:30,879 Speaker 4: What. Wow, those guys are really good. 915 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:33,719 Speaker 3: I mean that fourth and four, the nineteen yard passed 916 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:37,160 Speaker 3: to Jamar Chase, he wasn't open. He trusted Jamar to 917 00:42:37,320 --> 00:42:40,799 Speaker 3: use his body and strength to snatch and rip through it, 918 00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 3: and it just it was it was amazing to watch. 919 00:42:43,120 --> 00:42:47,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, in the National Football League, sometimes they're not going 920 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:49,279 Speaker 4: to be open. You gotta trust that they're gonna make 921 00:42:49,280 --> 00:42:52,359 Speaker 4: a playoff for you a contested catch. And Jamar Chase 922 00:42:52,440 --> 00:42:54,480 Speaker 4: is as good as there is in the league with that. 923 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:56,600 Speaker 4: And Joe Barrow can tell Joe Flack all about that. 924 00:42:56,640 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 4: I'm sure he probably already has. I bet that's a 925 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 4: source too. Haven't really asked Joe Flacco, you know how 926 00:43:02,560 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 4: much information that he has garnered and gathered from Joe 927 00:43:06,800 --> 00:43:09,799 Speaker 4: Burrow about the offense about the coaches, what they like 928 00:43:09,840 --> 00:43:12,560 Speaker 4: to call, what they don't like to call, what their 929 00:43:12,719 --> 00:43:16,520 Speaker 4: receivers talents are, what they can do best, and things 930 00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:19,640 Speaker 4: to stay away from. But one thing that both these 931 00:43:19,719 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 4: quarterbacks can do. They can pinpoint the football so they 932 00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:25,640 Speaker 4: can hit the right shoulder, they can hit the left hip. 933 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:30,919 Speaker 4: And that is that's a major major league talent right there. 934 00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:34,560 Speaker 4: And the receivers appreciate it. I mean, you know, they 935 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:37,480 Speaker 4: know that the quarterback is going to give them an opportunity. 936 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 4: Even when they feel like they're covered, They're alive. They're 937 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,280 Speaker 4: not dead in the play. The ball could be coming 938 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,720 Speaker 4: their way, so be ready to go make a play. 939 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:47,000 Speaker 4: And most times they do. 940 00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:49,279 Speaker 3: You know, great minds think alike. As I was just 941 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,799 Speaker 3: about to ask you, I remember a year after year, 942 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:54,480 Speaker 3: Bob Trump he talking to me about the pinpoint accuracy 943 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 3: of Ken Anderson and knowing as he's coming out of 944 00:43:57,120 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 3: his break, the ball was always he always knew where 945 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 3: the ball was going to be. And whether it's a 946 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 3: different quarterback and different RPMs coming out the rotation, whatever 947 00:44:05,560 --> 00:44:07,960 Speaker 3: it is, to be able to count on the quarterback 948 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 3: to put it where you want it and need it 949 00:44:10,880 --> 00:44:12,600 Speaker 3: is what Kenny Anderson was so good. 950 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:17,200 Speaker 4: At absolutely my old roomy there Kenny Anderson, and that's 951 00:44:17,200 --> 00:44:21,640 Speaker 4: what every receiver said about him. Man, he puts it 952 00:44:21,680 --> 00:44:25,440 Speaker 4: in the exact same spot every time, and it's like 953 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 4: not even a centimeter different, you know, it's like unbelieve. 954 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:32,960 Speaker 4: It's uncanny. And Flacco has that kind of accuracy too, 955 00:44:33,120 --> 00:44:35,399 Speaker 4: not just the short passing it, but the intermediate routes, 956 00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:38,080 Speaker 4: those tough routes to the intermediate routes between a lot 957 00:44:38,080 --> 00:44:39,960 Speaker 4: of times there's a layer with the backers and the 958 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,600 Speaker 4: safeties and corners, and boy, they can just put that football, 959 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,920 Speaker 4: drop that football in there perfectly. And that is an 960 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 4: immense talent to have. 961 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:50,000 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase Statfory from the NFL. It was his fiftieth 962 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 3: career touchdown yesterday. He becomes the third player with at 963 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 3: least fifty touchdown catches prior to his twenty sixth birthday. 964 00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:58,200 Speaker 4: Wow. 965 00:44:58,200 --> 00:45:02,560 Speaker 3: He joins Randy Moss and Rob Gronkowski. Moss did it 966 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:06,440 Speaker 3: and had sixty touchdowns before turning twenty six, Gronk fifty 967 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 3: four before turning twenty six. In Jamar with his fiftieth yesterday, and. 968 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:14,520 Speaker 4: Both of those guys, well, I don't know about twenty six, 969 00:45:14,560 --> 00:45:17,040 Speaker 4: but they both played with Brady, and Brady was a 970 00:45:17,080 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 4: touchdown Makerman as he was he was, he threw touchdown 971 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 4: pass after touchdown pass, and Randy Moss and Grondkowski. Huh. 972 00:45:24,880 --> 00:45:27,319 Speaker 4: That's a good company. That's that's a good short list 973 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,160 Speaker 4: right there, to be number three of those two dudes. 974 00:45:29,200 --> 00:45:31,280 Speaker 3: By the way, while we're speaking wide receiver, I almost 975 00:45:31,320 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 3: feel like we jinked jinkst Yoshi because we talked so 976 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 3: highly about his breakout game last week and then yesterday, boy, 977 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,200 Speaker 3: it was rough. I don't know if they're officially counted 978 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:43,640 Speaker 3: as three drops, but it's three. You could argue he dropped, 979 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:47,279 Speaker 3: no question. I mean, I remember all of them, and 980 00:45:47,320 --> 00:45:47,879 Speaker 3: so does he. 981 00:45:47,880 --> 00:45:50,000 Speaker 4: He's reviewing him in his head as he laid in 982 00:45:50,040 --> 00:45:51,839 Speaker 4: the bed last night. I bet you that was a 983 00:45:51,880 --> 00:45:54,160 Speaker 4: long flight home.

Look like he 999 00:46:38,480 --> 00:46:40,960 Speaker 3: had a record breaker at sixty seven. Well he had. 1000 00:46:41,000 --> 00:46:43,879 Speaker 3: It just didn't count because Matt Laflorid called time out 1001 00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:46,439 Speaker 3: and then missed on the follow up. But here's Dan 1002 00:46:46,520 --> 00:46:48,879 Speaker 3: Horde after the game with the Bengals kicker heaving. 1003 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:51,759 Speaker 9: We've talked many times about your desire to have a 1004 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 9: chance to kick one from sixty plus. Well turned out 1005 00:46:54,920 --> 00:46:58,000 Speaker 9: to be an NFL record attempt had you made it 1006 00:46:58,000 --> 00:47:00,040 Speaker 9: of sixty seven yards? First, what did you think? I 1007 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:01,760 Speaker 9: think when they called on you from that distance? 1008 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 17: Me and Darren had a conversation. 1009 00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 16: I feel like before the drive started and I was 1010 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:10,040 Speaker 16: just like, if you give me to the fifty, I 1011 00:47:10,120 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 16: feel confident that there's a good chance it's gonna go in. 1012 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,279 Speaker 16: So we had a good idea of like what the 1013 00:47:16,320 --> 00:47:19,160 Speaker 16: offense just trying to do and get to And so 1014 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,160 Speaker 16: as soon as I saw skip past fifty, I was like, 1015 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:25,759 Speaker 16: all right, good to go. It's a lot of excitement. 1016 00:47:26,520 --> 00:47:31,560 Speaker 16: You don't get those opportunities often. And to be honest, 1017 00:47:31,600 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 16: it's like I didn't hit the first one great. I 1018 00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:36,399 Speaker 16: kind of towed it a little bit, and that thing 1019 00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:38,760 Speaker 16: just took off and it carried, and I was honestly 1020 00:47:38,800 --> 00:47:40,000 Speaker 16: a surprise that it got there. 1021 00:47:41,080 --> 00:47:43,840 Speaker 17: And then the second one, maybe a little. 1022 00:47:43,600 --> 00:47:45,719 Speaker 16: Bit of adrenaline pushed off a little bit harder and 1023 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 16: just got under it a little bit. 1024 00:47:50,520 --> 00:47:55,360 Speaker 17: But you know, I feel like in that situation and 1025 00:47:55,400 --> 00:47:56,520 Speaker 17: the win that we had. 1026 00:47:56,360 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 16: Today is you're not gonna get that often, because I, honestly, 1027 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:01,080 Speaker 16: I feel like I was just kind of a gift 1028 00:48:02,640 --> 00:48:07,600 Speaker 16: of a kick, like perfect scenario to break the NFL record. 1029 00:48:09,400 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 17: I just got under it just to touch. 1030 00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:14,600 Speaker 16: It was cool to see the first one go in, 1031 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,040 Speaker 16: but I wish the second one would have. But uh, 1032 00:48:19,560 --> 00:48:20,680 Speaker 16: I guess it'll have to wait. 1033 00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,600 Speaker 9: Were you thinking, were you cognizant of the fact, all right? 1034 00:48:24,680 --> 00:48:26,839 Speaker 9: This is an NFL record potentially. 1035 00:48:27,040 --> 00:48:31,480 Speaker 16: Oh yeah, I mean you definitely understand the kick that 1036 00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 16: you're going out there to hit. And I realized, you know, 1037 00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:39,040 Speaker 16: as soon as we got out there, you know, or 1038 00:48:39,040 --> 00:48:42,840 Speaker 16: it's sixty seven yards, just put a good hit on it, 1039 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:44,480 Speaker 16: it should have a good chance of going in. 1040 00:48:45,480 --> 00:48:48,200 Speaker 17: But yeah, I was definitely aware of kind of the situation. 1041 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:50,879 Speaker 9: Did you know the time out was likely? 1042 00:48:53,640 --> 00:48:56,600 Speaker 16: I feel like whenever they have one, yes, But I 1043 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 16: will say I feel like we got out there at 1044 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:04,319 Speaker 16: tad late. Clock was running down, so as they thought 1045 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:05,600 Speaker 16: they would just let us roll with it and let 1046 00:49:05,680 --> 00:49:06,120 Speaker 16: us kick it. 1047 00:49:07,960 --> 00:49:08,160 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1048 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 16: Good, But it's nice of them to let me have 1049 00:49:12,120 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 16: a reset or refresh and just kind of reset the 1050 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:21,120 Speaker 16: clock force and just kind of let us operate and 1051 00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 16: how we normally do. 1052 00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,040 Speaker 17: But I just gonna put a better hit on that one. 1053 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:31,239 Speaker 17: So yeah, I feel like time out, if they have it, 1054 00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 17: they would do. But in that situation where the clock was, 1055 00:49:34,239 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 17: I didn't think it was likely. 1056 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:39,359 Speaker 9: When you saw the first one hit the crossbar and 1057 00:49:39,400 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 9: bounce over, are you thinking, all right, I know I 1058 00:49:42,640 --> 00:49:43,200 Speaker 9: can do this. 1059 00:49:43,600 --> 00:49:46,480 Speaker 16: Yeah, definitely, with I feel like with how poor I 1060 00:49:46,560 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 16: hit it, I thought for sure I was like, oh, 1061 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:51,800 Speaker 16: I just have to get this thing up in the 1062 00:49:51,840 --> 00:49:53,120 Speaker 16: air and it'll go in. 1063 00:49:54,040 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 17: So I was super confident going into the second one. 1064 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,279 Speaker 16: Like I said, it's just just pretty tough to make 1065 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:05,160 Speaker 16: to sixty seven yards back to back, but definitely capable 1066 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 16: of doing it and we'll get the next tent. 1067 00:50:07,600 --> 00:50:08,560 Speaker 9: How could get another shot? 1068 00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, thank you Evan McPherson. After the game, and boy 1069 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 3: it was. It was a cannon shot off his foot 1070 00:50:14,840 --> 00:50:17,239 Speaker 3: at sixty seven yards and I'm thinking yeah, and then 1071 00:50:17,360 --> 00:50:20,560 Speaker 3: you sure enough camera pans the battle of the floor. 1072 00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:23,919 Speaker 4: No no, I called time and I was like, yeah, yeah. 1073 00:50:23,920 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 4: He was sprinting down the field, making sure getting it 1074 00:50:26,719 --> 00:50:29,279 Speaker 4: right on top of that official, making sure that he 1075 00:50:29,360 --> 00:50:32,280 Speaker 4: acknowledged and gave him, you know, the time out before 1076 00:50:32,520 --> 00:50:36,960 Speaker 4: Evan McPherson could could get get that ball off, man, 1077 00:50:37,000 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 4: I'll tell you that, to hit a football that hard 1078 00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:44,600 Speaker 4: and to carry that carry at that distance and to 1079 00:50:44,640 --> 00:50:46,520 Speaker 4: get the elevation to get it up over the line 1080 00:50:46,520 --> 00:50:49,279 Speaker 4: of scrimmage. Because Green Bay was trying to block that 1081 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 4: bad boy, they felt like, okay, he's gonna have to 1082 00:50:51,200 --> 00:50:53,080 Speaker 4: hit a low line drive of two iron instead of 1083 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 4: a wedge, you know, to get it there, and McPherson 1084 00:50:56,200 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 4: crushed that thing man that had a majestic trajectory to it, 1085 00:51:00,600 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 4: and hit the crossbar and kick through. But the you know, 1086 00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,719 Speaker 4: the kick after the timeout. The timeout proved to be 1087 00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,320 Speaker 4: a very very brilliant move by Lafleura because yep, the 1088 00:51:12,520 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 4: mac you know, was thinking about it. I guess probably 1089 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,000 Speaker 4: a little bit too much and kind of mishit it 1090 00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:19,760 Speaker 4: and it fell wolfly short. 1091 00:51:20,120 --> 00:51:23,239 Speaker 3: Dave. I saw a stat on ESPN last week that 1092 00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:26,279 Speaker 3: I made note of that shows dramatically how the game 1093 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:31,840 Speaker 3: of field goal kickers has changed. In nineteen seventy, kickers 1094 00:51:31,920 --> 00:51:35,400 Speaker 3: made fifty nine percent of all their kicks. Right nineteen 1095 00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:40,600 Speaker 3: seventy made fifty nine percent. This year, kickers are converting 1096 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:45,399 Speaker 3: seventy three percent from fifty yards or beyond. I mean, 1097 00:51:45,400 --> 00:51:50,600 Speaker 3: that's just insane. I mean the days of a horse muleman, 1098 00:51:50,800 --> 00:51:51,360 Speaker 3: Jim Breach. 1099 00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,960 Speaker 4: I mean, it is. The evolution is so different. It's stunning, 1100 00:51:55,120 --> 00:51:57,479 Speaker 4: it is it is. It used to be. I mean 1101 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:00,600 Speaker 4: a lot of teams the place kicker who was a 1102 00:52:00,640 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 4: position player. It was like the you know, the extra 1103 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:07,239 Speaker 4: the last wide receiver or you know maybe uh, you know, 1104 00:52:07,640 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 4: a last defensive back on on the roster. And uh 1105 00:52:11,200 --> 00:52:17,399 Speaker 4: and now when you hear like going to practice and listening, uh, 1106 00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:21,200 Speaker 4: getting close to where he's he's uh, you know, crushing 1107 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:24,680 Speaker 4: the football when he's doing his kicking drills. It's unbelievable. 1108 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:26,719 Speaker 4: The noise that it makes, I mean, the thump, the 1109 00:52:26,760 --> 00:52:29,160 Speaker 4: thud that it makes when he strikes that football. You know, 1110 00:52:29,200 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 4: he's compressing the heck, got it, but I guess you 1111 00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:36,120 Speaker 4: know whatever physics right now. Yeah, he's laughing, but I 1112 00:52:36,120 --> 00:52:38,840 Speaker 4: mean to compress it. And and then the thing just 1113 00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:43,840 Speaker 4: springs out like that. It's it's unbelievable. The action reaction 1114 00:52:43,960 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 4: part of that is is tremendous. And and they have 1115 00:52:47,320 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 4: that kind of accuracy because they have narrowed the goalpost. 1116 00:52:50,200 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 4: Now they you know, take them into the as high 1117 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:56,319 Speaker 4: as they can take them. But uh, it's it's it's 1118 00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 4: really these guys. It's a specialty specialists, and it is 1119 00:53:01,239 --> 00:53:04,839 Speaker 4: it's incredible to the legg strength that they have. I mean, 1120 00:53:05,160 --> 00:53:09,160 Speaker 4: Evan McPherson likes to squat with freeways instead of like 1121 00:53:09,239 --> 00:53:11,480 Speaker 4: leg extension machines and that kind of thing. Wow, and 1122 00:53:11,520 --> 00:53:12,839 Speaker 4: he he loads it up pretty good. 1123 00:53:13,160 --> 00:53:16,080 Speaker 3: I look this morning and This is incredible because we 1124 00:53:16,160 --> 00:53:18,959 Speaker 3: know how good Jim Breach was. Jim Breach the most 1125 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,200 Speaker 3: maybe one of the most clutch kickers of all times 1126 00:53:21,239 --> 00:53:24,280 Speaker 3: ever missed it overtime. Absolutely, Jim Breach in his fourteen 1127 00:53:24,400 --> 00:53:28,759 Speaker 3: year career made six kicks of fifty yards or more. 1128 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:34,160 Speaker 3: Evan McPherson already has twenty five twenty five in five 1129 00:53:34,280 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 3: years in Jim And it's no, It's obviously not a 1130 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,840 Speaker 3: knock on Jim Breach. It's just that's the way the 1131 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:41,480 Speaker 3: game was, and the football was and kicking was. But 1132 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,480 Speaker 3: six and fourteen years for one of the best kickers, 1133 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:46,919 Speaker 3: the best kicker in Bengals history in Jim Breach. 1134 00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:49,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just it's nine and day difference. Yeah. And 1135 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:53,239 Speaker 4: he was one of the best kickers in the league. Yes, yeah, 1136 00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 4: I mean by far. 1137 00:53:54,480 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 3: The franchise is all time leading scorer by the gobs 1138 00:53:57,480 --> 00:53:57,920 Speaker 3: of points. 1139 00:53:57,960 --> 00:54:01,160 Speaker 4: It's not even close. Yeah. I mean, he preacher man, 1140 00:54:01,239 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 4: he could put points up on the board. There's no 1141 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:03,600 Speaker 4: doubt about it. 1142 00:54:03,600 --> 00:54:05,919 Speaker 3: I believe never missed an overtime field. I think nine 1143 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:08,839 Speaker 3: for nine overtime, I think, mister perfect. 1144 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:12,040 Speaker 4: There you go. Yep, that's a that's a big clutch. 1145 00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,360 Speaker 4: We called him mister Clutch you know. I mean, yes 1146 00:54:14,440 --> 00:54:16,879 Speaker 4: he was. He had the clutch gene for sure he did. 1147 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 4: And uh yeah, kickers, it's a it's a special skill set. 1148 00:54:23,600 --> 00:54:26,799 Speaker 3: No doubt about that. We'll take a time out. We've 1149 00:54:26,800 --> 00:54:29,439 Speaker 3: reached the bottom of the hour. There is much more 1150 00:54:29,480 --> 00:54:32,080 Speaker 3: to get to.

Hey, we're back on Bengals on 1153 00:54:41,280 --> 00:54:43,440 Speaker 3: in this Monday night. We are cruising through all the 1154 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:46,160 Speaker 3: conversation off yesterday's lost to the Green Bay Packers will 1155 00:54:46,160 --> 00:54:48,719 Speaker 3: eventually set up and look ahead of those Pittsburgh Steelers 1156 00:54:48,719 --> 00:54:51,919 Speaker 3: on Thursday night. I'm Lance Pacalister alongside his Day Black. 1157 00:54:52,000 --> 00:54:53,759 Speaker 3: When we talked defense and some of the issues and 1158 00:54:53,800 --> 00:54:57,000 Speaker 3: some of the the mistackles that hurt boys. Some third 1159 00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,360 Speaker 3: downs day by I look, they allow a third and 1160 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,879 Speaker 3: seven version, they allow a third and six conversion. There 1161 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:05,360 Speaker 3: was a third and ten that led to a thirty 1162 00:55:05,360 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 3: five yard completion, a third and eight that led to 1163 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:12,120 Speaker 3: a thirty one yard completion. Those are just backbreakers, especially 1164 00:55:12,440 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 3: in those in the second half where the offense started 1165 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 3: to get going, but then the defense couldn't get the 1166 00:55:17,480 --> 00:55:20,160 Speaker 3: stops they needed to give it right back to the offense. 1167 00:55:20,280 --> 00:55:20,560 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1168 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 4: I mean, that's that complimentary and non complimentary football that 1169 00:55:24,440 --> 00:55:27,279 Speaker 4: we talked about, is uh, you know, is his key. 1170 00:55:29,000 --> 00:55:31,280 Speaker 4: The offense starts to crank it up and the defense 1171 00:55:31,320 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 4: can't shut anything down. I thought, uh, you know, red 1172 00:55:35,239 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 4: zone problems cropped up big time. I thought tackling was 1173 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:42,720 Speaker 4: poor overall, but in the red zone there were times 1174 00:55:42,719 --> 00:55:45,560 Speaker 4: where it was just flat out ugly. I mean, Al 1175 00:55:45,600 --> 00:55:48,640 Speaker 4: Golden probably couldn't even you know, he probably covered his 1176 00:55:48,719 --> 00:55:50,799 Speaker 4: eyes and didn't want to uncover them looking at what 1177 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:52,759 Speaker 4: he was seeing out there on the football field. And 1178 00:55:53,960 --> 00:55:57,080 Speaker 4: you know, I just I just wonder. I don't think 1179 00:55:57,080 --> 00:55:59,440 Speaker 4: it couldn't have been that bad at practice. I mean, 1180 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,200 Speaker 4: if it was, it was addressed. That's for damn sure. 1181 00:56:02,280 --> 00:56:05,920 Speaker 4: They didn't go into the football game, you know, allowing 1182 00:56:06,000 --> 00:56:09,520 Speaker 4: that to be the last thing that was on their 1183 00:56:09,600 --> 00:56:13,839 Speaker 4: minds and in what they put on tape to go 1184 00:56:13,880 --> 00:56:15,240 Speaker 4: into a football game. For sure. 1185 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,440 Speaker 3: I'm I'm looking at snaps every Monday morning when the 1186 00:56:19,520 --> 00:56:22,680 Speaker 3: official snap or the unofficial snap count comes out. I look, 1187 00:56:22,719 --> 00:56:26,200 Speaker 3: and one thing that certainly jumps out that everybody's buzzing about, 1188 00:56:26,200 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 3: and it was noticeable during the game. Barrett Carter, the rookie, 1189 00:56:29,080 --> 00:56:32,560 Speaker 3: plays all sixty one snaps. Dimitris Knight Junior, the rookie 1190 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:36,680 Speaker 3: plays fifty six of the sixty one snaps. Logan Wilson 1191 00:56:36,719 --> 00:56:40,160 Speaker 3: plays just twelve snaps, and I believe just one in 1192 00:56:40,200 --> 00:56:44,520 Speaker 3: the entire second half. There's clearly a transition going on 1193 00:56:44,760 --> 00:56:48,239 Speaker 3: with with youth and throwing him into the deep end 1194 00:56:48,280 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 3: and and letting them learn. And that's uh there, when 1195 00:56:52,160 --> 00:56:55,320 Speaker 3: you're learning, there's stuff you learn that costs you sometimes, 1196 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,960 Speaker 3: and it's kind of the balance. You can't get experienced 1197 00:56:57,960 --> 00:57:00,840 Speaker 3: without snaps, and it's not always going to be perfect. 1198 00:57:01,160 --> 00:57:03,880 Speaker 4: True, that's very true. And uh, you know Al Golden 1199 00:57:04,000 --> 00:57:06,840 Speaker 4: going into this football game, one of the big differences 1200 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:11,680 Speaker 4: that he did preparing and showing the Green Bay Packers 1201 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:14,359 Speaker 4: was a four to two five defense and a four 1202 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:19,000 Speaker 4: to three defense four three four. So he used it 1203 00:57:19,760 --> 00:57:22,280 Speaker 4: and changed up and mixed it up. He had different 1204 00:57:22,320 --> 00:57:26,160 Speaker 4: personnel packages in his mind out there, and I think 1205 00:57:26,200 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 4: it was effective. I thought Jordan Love at times was 1206 00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 4: not quite sure exactly what coverages they were running. Al 1207 00:57:34,160 --> 00:57:37,400 Speaker 4: Golden mixed his coverages on the back end accordingly, with 1208 00:57:38,480 --> 00:57:40,880 Speaker 4: dependence on how many linebackers were out there on the 1209 00:57:40,880 --> 00:57:42,920 Speaker 4: football field and who he was going to leave his 1210 00:57:43,000 --> 00:57:46,120 Speaker 4: linebackers in coverage against, whether it be you know, a 1211 00:57:46,120 --> 00:57:48,880 Speaker 4: tight end or you know, a back out of the backfield. 1212 00:57:49,320 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 4: And like you said, you mentioned Bob Trumpy earlier in 1213 00:57:51,680 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 4: the show. Trump he loved matching up as a tight end, 1214 00:57:54,720 --> 00:57:58,720 Speaker 4: you know, against against linebackers and safeties for sure, But 1215 00:57:58,760 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 4: it was interesting to see a golden make that change, 1216 00:58:02,160 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 4: and he knew he needed to do something to give 1217 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:06,040 Speaker 4: his defense a shot in the arm, and he thought 1218 00:58:06,120 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 4: that might do the trick. 1219 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, when you've got when you've got two rookies, obviously, 1220 00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 3: the downside is you don't have as much experience to 1221 00:58:13,560 --> 00:58:16,440 Speaker 3: draw from and and and there might be that that 1222 00:58:16,440 --> 00:58:19,400 Speaker 3: that look with a veteran maybe to helping out a 1223 00:58:19,440 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 3: young guy, you know, go here, move here. The communication 1224 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:24,680 Speaker 3: when you got two young guys and you're both learning 1225 00:58:24,680 --> 00:58:27,520 Speaker 3: it as you go, there's it's tough to turn and say, 1226 00:58:27,560 --> 00:58:29,480 Speaker 3: well what do we do here? And guess the other 1227 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:31,120 Speaker 3: guy's probably turn and say, I don't know, what do 1228 00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:32,000 Speaker 3: you think we should do here? 1229 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:35,800 Speaker 4: We're both rookies, right right, and Logan Wilson the green 1230 00:58:35,840 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 4: dot was taken out of his helmet and given the 1231 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 4: Barrett Carter's helmet. Uh so you know that part of 1232 00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:42,120 Speaker 4: it had to be a little bit different for Al 1233 00:58:42,160 --> 00:58:45,360 Speaker 4: Golden and Barrett Carter, you know. Uh And and you know, 1234 00:58:45,760 --> 00:58:48,160 Speaker 4: I'm sure there might have been times where Al probably 1235 00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:49,120 Speaker 4: made a call said. 1236 00:58:49,280 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 5: Is he got that? 1237 00:58:51,040 --> 00:58:52,880 Speaker 4: I mean, give me some kind of innolvement, give me 1238 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:57,000 Speaker 4: like a wink or a lot or something what's going 1239 00:58:57,040 --> 00:59:00,600 Speaker 4: on over there? So yeah, at can be a little 1240 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 4: unsettling for sure. 1241 00:59:01,800 --> 00:59:03,720 Speaker 3: While we're on the defensive side of things. 1242 00:59:03,920 --> 00:59:04,200 Speaker 5: Uh. 1243 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:08,360 Speaker 3: We talked about DJ Turner playing so well, I'll tell 1244 00:59:08,400 --> 00:59:11,760 Speaker 3: you the guy I can't figure out Dave and he 1245 00:59:12,200 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 3: flashed And I go back a year ago at the 1246 00:59:14,760 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 3: start of the season, there was a thought maybe he's 1247 00:59:16,600 --> 00:59:18,800 Speaker 3: headed for a contract extension and this is going to 1248 00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:21,919 Speaker 3: be a breakout season. How do you explain what Cam 1249 00:59:22,000 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 3: Taylor brit Is is dealing with? 1250 00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:26,520 Speaker 4: It? Is it confidence? Is it? What? 1251 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 3: Is there anything that jumps out to you of what 1252 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,160 Speaker 3: leads to some of the misses sometimes for Cam Taylor britt. 1253 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:35,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like you said of the contract, you thought, 1254 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:37,520 Speaker 4: and he probably did. He probably thought, yeah, I mean 1255 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:39,400 Speaker 4: it's coming to him. I'm gonna have a nice little 1256 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 4: Ray is gonna be able to take care of the 1257 00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:45,240 Speaker 4: whole family. And then when it doesn't come, maybe he's pressing, 1258 00:59:45,360 --> 00:59:47,240 Speaker 4: you know, maybe he's like trying to or maybe he's 1259 00:59:47,280 --> 00:59:50,920 Speaker 4: just like you know, and sometimes when you press, your 1260 00:59:50,960 --> 00:59:53,240 Speaker 4: mind shuts down. You know, it's like you just can't 1261 00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 4: you can't get anything right. You have to calm down, 1262 00:59:56,280 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 4: you have to compose yourself and and and play. You know, 1263 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:04,000 Speaker 4: sometimes you're trying to play too fast, you know, just chill, 1264 01:00:04,360 --> 01:00:07,160 Speaker 4: take it easy. And maybe that's what uh, that's what 1265 01:00:07,240 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 4: Cam Taylor Brests do. Take a little chill pill. 1266 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:11,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, Kim looked like one of those guys who could 1267 01:00:11,760 --> 01:00:15,280 Speaker 3: be a be a playmaker for this and this this 1268 01:00:15,320 --> 01:00:19,480 Speaker 3: is a defense outside of Trey, it could use guys 1269 01:00:19,480 --> 01:00:23,200 Speaker 3: that evolve into playmakers, difference makers. If you're the other 1270 01:00:23,240 --> 01:00:25,400 Speaker 3: team looking on tape, going, oh, we got to be 1271 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,160 Speaker 3: aware of that guy. The Bengals need a guy or 1272 01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:30,919 Speaker 3: two to step up into that role that flashes he's 1273 01:00:30,920 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 3: one of those guys like yes, you know. 1274 01:00:33,520 --> 01:00:37,560 Speaker 4: Yoh man, this guy it's like he covers the entire 1275 01:00:37,600 --> 01:00:40,000 Speaker 4: football field, man, you know, just have a little area. 1276 01:00:40,400 --> 01:00:42,720 Speaker 4: They let him, you know, and uh, you know, David 1277 01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:45,200 Speaker 4: Foltcher another guy with the Bengals, that it was all 1278 01:00:45,240 --> 01:00:48,080 Speaker 4: over the field, cover the field. Dick Lebou realized that 1279 01:00:48,160 --> 01:00:52,439 Speaker 4: he had a special talent in terms of David Fulter, 1280 01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:55,760 Speaker 4: and let him not freelance, but let him go, let 1281 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:58,080 Speaker 4: him go on his own. If you see something, go 1282 01:00:58,240 --> 01:01:00,200 Speaker 4: make the play. You don't make the play though, when 1283 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:02,040 Speaker 4: you come to the sideline, you're gonna hear about it, son, 1284 01:01:02,080 --> 01:01:04,600 Speaker 4: you know. And uh and he can get scolded, You 1285 01:01:04,600 --> 01:01:07,240 Speaker 4: get scolded a few times.

They've got to figure 1315 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,440 Speaker 3: out a way to unlock something earlier in games you've 1316 01:02:46,520 --> 01:02:49,760 Speaker 3: just fallen by this defense we know needs some help 1317 01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,480 Speaker 3: and falling behind early does not help them, now, no 1318 01:02:52,600 --> 01:02:56,280 Speaker 3: question about it. And you know, Bill Walsh used to 1319 01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:59,800 Speaker 3: script twenty plays, you know, sometimes fifteen, but usually twenty. 1320 01:03:01,200 --> 01:03:03,960 Speaker 3: Maybe that's what the Bengals need to do. Maybe the 1321 01:03:04,120 --> 01:03:06,400 Speaker 3: Dan pitcher needs to script some plays and stay with 1322 01:03:06,440 --> 01:03:09,760 Speaker 3: that script. And you know, because when you're scripting players, 1323 01:03:09,840 --> 01:03:12,880 Speaker 3: you're spending a lot of time studying tape and what 1324 01:03:13,120 --> 01:03:16,000 Speaker 3: works best on first down? What's my best selection on 1325 01:03:16,400 --> 01:03:18,120 Speaker 3: second down? I want to make sure I get to 1326 01:03:18,160 --> 01:03:20,959 Speaker 3: this on third down very early, maybe my first third 1327 01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:23,720 Speaker 3: down call. So you've got it in front of you 1328 01:03:24,440 --> 01:03:26,800 Speaker 3: when you're you know, holding everything else, you're holding your 1329 01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:30,000 Speaker 3: clipboard during the course of the game. And I don't know, 1330 01:03:30,080 --> 01:03:34,360 Speaker 3: maybe that might be something to try because man, you know, 1331 01:03:34,440 --> 01:03:36,200 Speaker 3: you go into the locker room with no points or 1332 01:03:36,240 --> 01:03:40,200 Speaker 3: three points on the board. That's disconcerting, man, that's disheartening. 1333 01:03:40,240 --> 01:03:42,360 Speaker 3: I mean, everybody's looking at each other like, what the hell, 1334 01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:43,640 Speaker 3: what's going on? 1335 01:03:43,800 --> 01:03:44,000 Speaker 5: Man? 1336 01:03:44,600 --> 01:03:47,880 Speaker 4: You know, shoot, can't we throw the football? Can't somebody 1337 01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:50,560 Speaker 4: catch a football down the football field. For us, this 1338 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:53,560 Speaker 4: is too hard. We're making it too hard. You know. 1339 01:03:53,680 --> 01:03:56,840 Speaker 4: Let's uh, let's take the burden of responsibility. Uh, you 1340 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,040 Speaker 4: know off of us a little bit. Man, Let's uh, 1341 01:03:59,120 --> 01:04:02,479 Speaker 4: let's get some to me. It looks like sometimes they're 1342 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:05,600 Speaker 4: just not having fun. You know. It's it's they're grinding 1343 01:04:05,720 --> 01:04:08,760 Speaker 4: so hard and trying so hard to do it right 1344 01:04:09,240 --> 01:04:10,320 Speaker 4: that it just doesn't happen. 1345 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:11,880 Speaker 3: It was hard to believe. At the end of the 1346 01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:15,800 Speaker 3: first quarter the Bengals have been out gained one sixteen 1347 01:04:15,880 --> 01:04:19,720 Speaker 3: to one one yard and out possessed thirteen minutes to 1348 01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:20,360 Speaker 3: two minutes. 1349 01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:21,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, at the end of. 1350 01:04:21,040 --> 01:04:23,320 Speaker 3: One quarter, I'm like, that doesn't even look real. It 1351 01:04:23,320 --> 01:04:24,760 Speaker 3: looks like a typo on the screen. 1352 01:04:24,880 --> 01:04:27,080 Speaker 4: I'm telling you. During the course of the game, you know, 1353 01:04:27,120 --> 01:04:29,640 Speaker 4: I kept saying to Dan, like, what the heck? I 1354 01:04:29,720 --> 01:04:32,880 Speaker 4: mean you talk about few peopleway I mean, it was 1355 01:04:33,080 --> 01:04:36,040 Speaker 4: we were we're talking about it, like, what the hell 1356 01:04:36,120 --> 01:04:38,000 Speaker 4: is going on? You know, when are they gonna get 1357 01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:40,520 Speaker 4: a first down? When are they gonna move the chains? 1358 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,440 Speaker 4: I mean, this is this is unbelievable. This is like, uh, 1359 01:04:45,280 --> 01:04:48,280 Speaker 4: it's not even elementary football. It was it was foreign football. 1360 01:04:48,320 --> 01:04:52,440 Speaker 4: It was weird the third quarter. 1361 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 3: The drive in the third quarter that went seventeen plays, 1362 01:04:55,880 --> 01:04:57,960 Speaker 3: which is just a thing of beauty ten minutes and 1363 01:04:58,040 --> 01:05:00,800 Speaker 3: fourteen seconds. And I go go back and look at that, 1364 01:05:01,000 --> 01:05:03,680 Speaker 3: and maybe we talk about things you can carry over 1365 01:05:03,720 --> 01:05:06,320 Speaker 3: into Thursday night. That drive Dave in the third quarter 1366 01:05:06,400 --> 01:05:10,920 Speaker 3: featured seven runs. In those seventeen plays, Brown went for 1367 01:05:10,960 --> 01:05:13,959 Speaker 3: five yards, Brown goes for four yards, p Ryan for two, 1368 01:05:14,560 --> 01:05:17,919 Speaker 3: p Ryan for six, Brown for nine, p Ryan for one, 1369 01:05:18,080 --> 01:05:21,240 Speaker 3: Brown for one. But the seven runs produced twenty eight 1370 01:05:21,320 --> 01:05:26,280 Speaker 3: yards on that drive, and maybe maybe it's something that sticks, like, oh, 1371 01:05:26,360 --> 01:05:26,800 Speaker 3: look at that. 1372 01:05:26,960 --> 01:05:28,320 Speaker 4: We stuck with it. 1373 01:05:28,400 --> 01:05:30,240 Speaker 3: We had our best drive of the year and seven 1374 01:05:30,320 --> 01:05:34,200 Speaker 3: of the fourteen plays or seventeen plays were runs. So 1375 01:05:34,920 --> 01:05:37,040 Speaker 3: something to hang your hat on. 1376 01:05:37,280 --> 01:05:40,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I'll forever, I'll go to my grave 1377 01:05:40,240 --> 01:05:45,360 Speaker 4: saying you know, balance, you're looking for balance in your offense. 1378 01:05:45,400 --> 01:05:47,760 Speaker 4: You've got to be able to run the football at 1379 01:05:47,800 --> 01:05:49,240 Speaker 4: times and you have to be able to throw the 1380 01:05:49,280 --> 01:05:52,280 Speaker 4: football at times. Sometimes defenses are going to be well 1381 01:05:52,320 --> 01:05:57,720 Speaker 4: prepared and make adjustments and make amazingly good adjustments during 1382 01:05:57,760 --> 01:06:00,240 Speaker 4: the course of the game where it's like whoa knoct 1383 01:06:00,240 --> 01:06:04,560 Speaker 4: you back a little bit staggers you. You're gonna have 1384 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:06,560 Speaker 4: to be able to make an adjustment along with it. 1385 01:06:06,680 --> 01:06:10,960 Speaker 4: And for Joe Flacco to have a seventeen play drive, 1386 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:13,080 Speaker 4: I wonder how many times during the course of his 1387 01:06:13,440 --> 01:06:17,360 Speaker 4: story career he's had a seventeen play drive. And to 1388 01:06:17,440 --> 01:06:20,280 Speaker 4: do it up there again, we talked about Lambeau and 1389 01:06:20,320 --> 01:06:23,000 Speaker 4: how loud it is. That's a that's a heck of 1390 01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:26,680 Speaker 4: an accomplishment to deal with the adversity. A good football 1391 01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:30,080 Speaker 4: team solid, they've got really good players out there, and 1392 01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:33,600 Speaker 4: the crowd noise is like deafening you. You almost got 1393 01:06:33,640 --> 01:06:35,720 Speaker 4: a headache, it's so loud. And then you've got to 1394 01:06:35,760 --> 01:06:41,200 Speaker 4: sort through everything and have a seventeen play drive. That's extraordinary, 1395 01:06:41,200 --> 01:06:41,760 Speaker 4: it really is. 1396 01:06:41,880 --> 01:06:44,160 Speaker 3: I love the fact Chase Brown had his longest run 1397 01:06:44,200 --> 01:06:45,760 Speaker 3: of the year. It was only thirteen, but it was 1398 01:06:45,800 --> 01:06:47,640 Speaker 3: his longest run of the year. And if you look, 1399 01:06:47,840 --> 01:06:50,600 Speaker 3: I mean the overall run numbers obviously at three point 1400 01:06:50,640 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 3: four not good, right, Chase Brown carried nine times for 1401 01:06:53,880 --> 01:06:57,720 Speaker 3: forty two. That's four point seven. That just cries out, man, 1402 01:06:57,760 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 3: if you could, if you could stick with that a 1403 01:06:59,320 --> 01:07:01,600 Speaker 3: little bit more. There was a moment in the second quarter. 1404 01:07:02,440 --> 01:07:05,360 Speaker 3: They have it third and two on their own forty five, 1405 01:07:05,800 --> 01:07:09,360 Speaker 3: and I'm thinking, man, I know, I like I call 1406 01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,880 Speaker 3: time out and bring my offensive line over and say, guys, 1407 01:07:12,080 --> 01:07:13,880 Speaker 3: we're gonna run it the next two times it's on 1408 01:07:13,960 --> 01:07:15,720 Speaker 3: and we're gonna get two yards. And if we don't 1409 01:07:15,720 --> 01:07:17,520 Speaker 3: get two yards, then you guys can find your own 1410 01:07:17,560 --> 01:07:18,000 Speaker 3: way home. 1411 01:07:18,080 --> 01:07:18,280 Speaker 9: Right. 1412 01:07:18,400 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 3: But and then they have Joe throw in Tanner Hudson 1413 01:07:22,600 --> 01:07:25,160 Speaker 3: I think loses three on the catch. Yeah, but I 1414 01:07:25,400 --> 01:07:27,400 Speaker 3: look at those moments that you're the offensive line, and 1415 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:31,160 Speaker 3: those moments to me just cry out, make your offensive 1416 01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:33,120 Speaker 3: line give them something. 1417 01:07:33,080 --> 01:07:33,720 Speaker 4: As a goal. 1418 01:07:33,880 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 3: Guys get this first down on third and two and 1419 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:38,360 Speaker 3: you got two plays to do it on our own 1420 01:07:38,400 --> 01:07:40,680 Speaker 3: forty two. And I think that would mean something to 1421 01:07:40,760 --> 01:07:41,640 Speaker 3: an offensive line. 1422 01:07:41,680 --> 01:07:45,600 Speaker 4: Absolutely. What it would mean is you've got the respect 1423 01:07:45,600 --> 01:07:48,479 Speaker 4: of the coaches. You know. It's like, okay, third and two, 1424 01:07:49,200 --> 01:07:51,960 Speaker 4: this is automatic. Man. We know, we know you come 1425 01:07:52,000 --> 01:07:54,120 Speaker 4: off the line of scrimming and knock people around. We 1426 01:07:54,160 --> 01:07:56,920 Speaker 4: know you're gonna knock them back. We have full confidence 1427 01:07:56,920 --> 01:07:59,720 Speaker 4: in this. We're not even considering anything else. We're gonna 1428 01:07:59,760 --> 01:08:01,960 Speaker 4: run the ball. We'renna run it right between the tackles. Boys, 1429 01:08:01,960 --> 01:08:07,080 Speaker 4: here we go, broom get stuffed. You know that that 1430 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:12,520 Speaker 4: just uh, that's unsettling, to say the least. And then 1431 01:08:12,800 --> 01:08:16,120 Speaker 4: when when the opposition does that to your defense, yep, 1432 01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:18,960 Speaker 4: you know it gets the third and two and you think, okay, guys, 1433 01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,120 Speaker 4: hey get ready, here we go, we're going back. Maybe not, 1434 01:08:21,280 --> 01:08:24,479 Speaker 4: you know, let's let's not get too ready because we 1435 01:08:24,479 --> 01:08:27,080 Speaker 4: haven't stopped him on third and two yet the whole game. 1436 01:08:27,160 --> 01:08:29,960 Speaker 4: So those are the kind of things that have to 1437 01:08:30,400 --> 01:08:33,519 Speaker 4: the worm has to turn quickly in those dynamics. 1438 01:08:33,560 --> 01:08:35,759 Speaker 3: And Hick the one run I think it was Chase 1439 01:08:35,800 --> 01:08:38,200 Speaker 3: Brown the one run he gets stood up, but the 1440 01:08:38,240 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 3: pile keeps getting pushed. It was like a big rugby scrum, 1441 01:08:41,200 --> 01:08:43,960 Speaker 3: I want to say, for seven eight nine yards And 1442 01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,320 Speaker 3: I'm thinking it was so cool to see and there 1443 01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:49,280 Speaker 3: was so much physicality on that play, like guys keep 1444 01:08:49,360 --> 01:08:53,519 Speaker 3: pushing it. I'm like, yes, that it showed you you 1445 01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:56,320 Speaker 3: can do. Just stick with it and see you may 1446 01:08:56,560 --> 01:08:58,360 Speaker 3: you may run your head into the wall a couple 1447 01:08:58,400 --> 01:09:01,479 Speaker 3: of times, but you know how to eventually the damn breaks. 1448 01:09:01,840 --> 01:09:04,840 Speaker 3: You built some momentum and confidence and everything starts clicking. 1449 01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:10,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, And honestly, I thought yesterday might have been the 1450 01:09:10,000 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 4: most physical game they play overall, you know, offense, defense, 1451 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:17,280 Speaker 4: and special teams, all three phases that they all had 1452 01:09:17,320 --> 01:09:20,360 Speaker 4: their moments and then they had moments of disappointment and 1453 01:09:21,280 --> 01:09:24,320 Speaker 4: ineffective play. That's for sure. It certainly was not perfect, 1454 01:09:24,800 --> 01:09:28,479 Speaker 4: far from perfect. But you know, maybe the worms turning 1455 01:09:28,520 --> 01:09:30,080 Speaker 4: a little bit in the graphs are going up. 1456 01:09:30,240 --> 01:09:33,080 Speaker 3: I would take that absolutely. We'll head down the stretch 1457 01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:35,920 Speaker 3: in our second hour tonight. Thanks for tagging along with 1458 01:09:36,000 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 3: us tonight for the Bengals Conversation. We do it on 1459 01:09:38,880 --> 01:09:42,880 Speaker 3: Bengals Line and the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. 1460 01:09:45,680 --> 01:09:47,800 Speaker 3: All right, we are cruising down the stretch, about to 1461 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:50,080 Speaker 3: put our number two in the books tonight on Bengals 1462 01:09:50,120 --> 01:09:52,920 Speaker 3: Line and the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. 1463 01:09:53,040 --> 01:09:56,080 Speaker 3: Lancemcallister and Dave Lapham. We were talking about the Bengals 1464 01:09:56,120 --> 01:09:57,720 Speaker 3: running the ball. Let's flip it back to the other 1465 01:09:57,760 --> 01:09:59,280 Speaker 3: side day for the Bengals are gonna have to be 1466 01:09:59,320 --> 01:10:02,799 Speaker 3: better at stopping the run. Green Bay pounds it thirty 1467 01:10:02,840 --> 01:10:05,160 Speaker 3: three times for one hundred and fifty three yards, and 1468 01:10:05,200 --> 01:10:07,879 Speaker 3: you know darn well that Mike Tomlin and The Steelers 1469 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:10,439 Speaker 3: are not going to shy away from pounding the football. 1470 01:10:10,520 --> 01:10:14,040 Speaker 3: Even with limited success early, They're gonna keep coming at you. 1471 01:10:14,080 --> 01:10:16,040 Speaker 3: The Bengals got to figure out a way to clean 1472 01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:16,639 Speaker 3: that up. 1473 01:10:16,640 --> 01:10:19,639 Speaker 4: No doubt. I mean, Mike Tomlin and his coaching staff 1474 01:10:19,960 --> 01:10:22,320 Speaker 4: on the offensive side of things, looking at that tape 1475 01:10:22,320 --> 01:10:25,439 Speaker 4: and like, all right, thirty three times for over one 1476 01:10:25,479 --> 01:10:28,519 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty yards, that's us. That's Pittsburgh steel of football. 1477 01:10:28,600 --> 01:10:32,639 Speaker 4: Let's go do it. Let's replicate that. And Pittsburgh's always 1478 01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:35,599 Speaker 4: had a big, physical offensive line. Those dudes all hit 1479 01:10:35,640 --> 01:10:38,679 Speaker 4: the weight room, man, They've they've all got guns, man. 1480 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:43,040 Speaker 4: They've all all been doing their curls and their bench presses, 1481 01:10:43,080 --> 01:10:46,080 Speaker 4: and they get strong legs as well. I mean they 1482 01:10:46,080 --> 01:10:49,240 Speaker 4: come off the football and they knock people back, and 1483 01:10:49,520 --> 01:10:54,519 Speaker 4: they have multiple schematics in their run game. They'll they'll 1484 01:10:54,880 --> 01:10:58,919 Speaker 4: pin and pull trap you. They'll run counters, they'll run sweeps, 1485 01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:02,280 Speaker 4: they'll run you know, just dive plays and uh, you know, 1486 01:11:02,360 --> 01:11:08,120 Speaker 4: straight line blocking patterns between the tackles. So the Bengals 1487 01:11:08,400 --> 01:11:11,040 Speaker 4: al golden and the Cincinnati Bengals defensive unit is going 1488 01:11:11,080 --> 01:11:14,880 Speaker 4: to have a plethra of run scheme to digest and 1489 01:11:15,320 --> 01:11:17,519 Speaker 4: understand and be able to react to. 1490 01:11:18,040 --> 01:11:20,800 Speaker 3: And David goes back to what we talked about last week, 1491 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:24,080 Speaker 3: and if you can run the ball, the ability to 1492 01:11:24,160 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 3: tick time off the clock, kill the clock, keep your 1493 01:11:27,800 --> 01:11:30,479 Speaker 3: is just keep your defense out of jeopardy, keep them 1494 01:11:30,479 --> 01:11:33,040 Speaker 3: on the sidelines, establish a run, work on the clock, 1495 01:11:33,360 --> 01:11:36,679 Speaker 3: matriculate the ball down the field, wear the other team down. 1496 01:11:36,800 --> 01:11:38,599 Speaker 4: There's just so much that happens. 1497 01:11:39,280 --> 01:11:41,800 Speaker 3: It's so simple, but there's so much good that can 1498 01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:44,160 Speaker 3: happen when you can run the ball, and so much 1499 01:11:44,200 --> 01:11:46,480 Speaker 3: it does to damage the opposition. 1500 01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,040 Speaker 4: It's just, oh yeah, man, I hear you. I agree 1501 01:11:50,040 --> 01:11:54,240 Speaker 4: with you one hundred thou Marvin Lewis was right next 1502 01:11:54,240 --> 01:11:58,360 Speaker 4: to us during the broadcast. He was doing a cable 1503 01:11:58,400 --> 01:12:02,320 Speaker 4: television broadcast, and UH talk to him a little bit 1504 01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:04,800 Speaker 4: before the game, and and he always talked about when 1505 01:12:04,800 --> 01:12:07,439 Speaker 4: he was a coach of the Bengals. Look, we have 1506 01:12:07,479 --> 01:12:10,360 Speaker 4: to build an identity. We have to establish an identity, 1507 01:12:10,560 --> 01:12:13,640 Speaker 4: and I want that identity to be physical physicality. I 1508 01:12:13,680 --> 01:12:16,280 Speaker 4: want that to be a f C. That time a 1509 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:19,040 Speaker 4: f C Central, but now it's AFC North. I want 1510 01:12:19,040 --> 01:12:21,439 Speaker 4: that to every every other team in the league is 1511 01:12:21,479 --> 01:12:22,680 Speaker 4: going to be oh man, We've got to go to 1512 01:12:22,720 --> 01:12:25,200 Speaker 4: that division and play those guys. You know, it's like 1513 01:12:25,920 --> 01:12:28,719 Speaker 4: they know they're in for a very very long day 1514 01:12:29,120 --> 01:12:31,639 Speaker 4: in terms of knocking heads and uh and and getting 1515 01:12:31,640 --> 01:12:36,520 Speaker 4: after people. So but you know, you go into Pittsburgh, 1516 01:12:36,880 --> 01:12:39,719 Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin is gonna do two things. Run the ball. 1517 01:12:40,040 --> 01:12:44,160 Speaker 4: Stop the run. He believes that's the beginning of of 1518 01:12:44,280 --> 01:12:47,599 Speaker 4: everything that that goes on on either side of the football. 1519 01:12:47,640 --> 01:12:52,160 Speaker 4: And he he's a he's a guy that uh loves 1520 01:12:52,160 --> 01:12:55,240 Speaker 4: the game of football, loves the physicality of the game 1521 01:12:55,240 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 4: of football, and he instills that in his players. 1522 01:12:57,439 --> 01:12:59,040 Speaker 3: And I I go back to what you said about 1523 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:01,920 Speaker 3: Matt Lafleur. Matt floor is a young, bright mind in 1524 01:13:01,960 --> 01:13:05,439 Speaker 3: the game. And yet he understood he's got a young 1525 01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:09,560 Speaker 3: stud quarterback and Georgiana Love. And yet he got a 1526 01:13:09,640 --> 01:13:12,559 Speaker 3: win with his quarterback only throwing at twenty six times 1527 01:13:12,960 --> 01:13:15,879 Speaker 3: because his offense was able to run at effectively thirty 1528 01:13:15,920 --> 01:13:18,000 Speaker 3: three times. What a what a world to live in 1529 01:13:18,040 --> 01:13:20,559 Speaker 3: if you're Jordan Love, where you can just drop back 1530 01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 3: to past twenty six times, have your very productive two 1531 01:13:23,439 --> 01:13:25,680 Speaker 3: hundred and fifty nine yard day and a touchdown, and 1532 01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:28,840 Speaker 3: watch your offense click on the ground and win time 1533 01:13:28,840 --> 01:13:30,240 Speaker 3: of possession, and that. 1534 01:13:30,240 --> 01:13:32,479 Speaker 4: Those numbers you just read right there remind me of 1535 01:13:32,520 --> 01:13:36,360 Speaker 4: Mike Tomlin with Ben Roethlisberger. Yes, I mean the same thing, yep. 1536 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:38,200 Speaker 4: I mean you got a guy that can throw the 1537 01:13:38,200 --> 01:13:42,479 Speaker 4: football like Ben Roethlisberger.

The final yesterday. Here's more from Zach 1565 01:15:03,040 --> 01:15:05,840 Speaker 3: on what happened and what's ahead for this football team. 1566 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:06,680 Speaker 17: Right, you know, just. 1567 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:12,640 Speaker 8: Sick after that loss because Ea chaff You know, I 1568 01:15:12,840 --> 01:15:14,800 Speaker 8: thought the defense in the first half gave us a chance. 1569 01:15:14,840 --> 01:15:18,040 Speaker 8: The offense had those four possessions that Dendre generated any 1570 01:15:18,080 --> 01:15:20,559 Speaker 8: offense and give us a chance there to take a lead, 1571 01:15:20,640 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 8: take a tie into halftime, and then second half offense 1572 01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,639 Speaker 8: came out. I thought played well, and you know, defense 1573 01:15:25,680 --> 01:15:28,240 Speaker 8: just couldn't couldn't quite get off the field. So when 1574 01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:30,439 Speaker 8: we talked about complimentary football, that's what we're talking about. 1575 01:15:30,560 --> 01:15:34,679 Speaker 8: And it wasn't overall good enough. You see pieces that 1576 01:15:34,680 --> 01:15:37,479 Speaker 8: that we can lean into and continue to grow. But 1577 01:15:37,479 --> 01:15:39,920 Speaker 8: but losing this game on the road, there's no conservation there. 1578 01:15:39,960 --> 01:15:41,920 Speaker 8: We expected to win. I thought we should have won 1579 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,160 Speaker 8: the game. Credit to them, they did all the things 1580 01:15:44,200 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 8: that they needed to do to get this win, and 1581 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:49,040 Speaker 8: we just we came up short. And that's just a 1582 01:15:49,120 --> 01:15:50,840 Speaker 8: cumulative tam effort over the course of the game. 1583 01:15:51,680 --> 01:15:52,360 Speaker 9: Xach Colene of. 1584 01:15:52,400 --> 01:15:56,759 Speaker 14: The early struggles offensively, but was just getting Joe getting used. 1585 01:15:56,600 --> 01:15:58,320 Speaker 4: To being out there his first time playing. 1586 01:15:58,360 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 5: You accounted some of that to that. 1587 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:00,760 Speaker 7: I don't want to. 1588 01:16:00,760 --> 01:16:02,360 Speaker 8: I don't want to put it there. You know, I 1589 01:16:02,360 --> 01:16:04,400 Speaker 8: thought he was definitely ready as he came in the game, 1590 01:16:04,479 --> 01:16:07,000 Speaker 8: and and just part of it is you hear me 1591 01:16:07,000 --> 01:16:08,800 Speaker 8: say a lot, getting that first first down and getting 1592 01:16:08,800 --> 01:16:10,760 Speaker 8: the flow there, and we went three for three three 1593 01:16:10,760 --> 01:16:13,920 Speaker 8: and outs and those first four drafts, and I think 1594 01:16:14,520 --> 01:16:16,800 Speaker 8: before the half that certainly gave us some confidence. Even 1595 01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:18,640 Speaker 8: though we came up with no points. We got into 1596 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:20,439 Speaker 8: a rhythm. We found some things in the past game 1597 01:16:20,800 --> 01:16:22,559 Speaker 8: we were able to compliment it with a run game. 1598 01:16:22,960 --> 01:16:26,000 Speaker 8: So we fell coming into halftime. The defense had done 1599 01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:28,080 Speaker 8: enough to keep us in that game. Whenknew getting the 1600 01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:29,800 Speaker 8: ball to start the half, we're gonna have a shot there, 1601 01:16:29,800 --> 01:16:32,680 Speaker 8: and so I definitely think we walked into halftime with 1602 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:35,040 Speaker 8: some confidence, as loud asy as it is to say 1603 01:16:35,040 --> 01:16:37,000 Speaker 8: that with zero points on the board, but that was 1604 01:16:37,040 --> 01:16:38,880 Speaker 8: the truth, and you definitely saw that coming out in 1605 01:16:38,920 --> 01:16:43,679 Speaker 8: the second half. There was rhythm well, just again getting 1606 01:16:43,680 --> 01:16:46,040 Speaker 8: the getting the first first out, and I felt like 1607 01:16:46,080 --> 01:16:47,920 Speaker 8: we had a good plan coming out, good flow. We 1608 01:16:47,920 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 8: were able to get some of the stuff we wanted 1609 01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:51,160 Speaker 8: to get to. Early in the game, we just didn't 1610 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,120 Speaker 8: have any place, you know, we had we had really 1611 01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:55,400 Speaker 8: no normal down plays. I felt like maybe four or five, 1612 01:16:55,960 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 8: So you don't get a chance all this stuff, your 1613 01:16:57,479 --> 01:16:59,760 Speaker 8: game plan you're ready for, you don't. You just can't 1614 01:16:59,760 --> 01:17:01,439 Speaker 8: act it until you get that first down and get 1615 01:17:01,439 --> 01:17:03,280 Speaker 8: into a flow. In the second half, we were able 1616 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:05,000 Speaker 8: to do that a little bit more and the guys 1617 01:17:05,000 --> 01:17:06,400 Speaker 8: were feeling it. They came off the ball and they 1618 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:11,439 Speaker 8: played well for us. I think that was that says 1619 01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:12,960 Speaker 8: more about Barrett than anything else. 1620 01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:13,320 Speaker 5: You know. 1621 01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:16,840 Speaker 8: It's Barrett has just been an ascending player and it's 1622 01:17:16,880 --> 01:17:18,160 Speaker 8: time to see what he can do, you know, in 1623 01:17:18,200 --> 01:17:20,559 Speaker 8: a full time role. You know, we've given him bits 1624 01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:22,479 Speaker 8: and pieces over time, and and it's just time to 1625 01:17:22,520 --> 01:17:23,479 Speaker 8: throw them in the fire. 1626 01:17:23,439 --> 01:17:23,880 Speaker 7: Let him go. 1627 01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:27,439 Speaker 8: And Ocan still got his role, he'll play. I got 1628 01:17:27,439 --> 01:17:29,240 Speaker 8: a lot of confidence in Logan as well. This was 1629 01:17:29,280 --> 01:17:32,000 Speaker 8: just more about giving Barrett an opportunity to see to 1630 01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:34,479 Speaker 8: see how much potential we can get out of MS 1631 01:17:34,479 --> 01:17:35,160 Speaker 8: the season gets going. 1632 01:17:36,760 --> 01:17:37,800 Speaker 7: He was definitely ready for it. 1633 01:17:37,880 --> 01:17:40,200 Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I mean, obviously I can't assess the play 1634 01:17:40,280 --> 01:17:43,000 Speaker 8: right now without without seeing it. But his mindset has 1635 01:17:43,000 --> 01:17:45,800 Speaker 8: always been one that I believed in, and I thought 1636 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:47,360 Speaker 8: he had a great mentality all week and and then 1637 01:17:47,400 --> 01:17:49,080 Speaker 8: obviously we'll assess the tape and see how it went. 1638 01:17:50,840 --> 01:17:55,880 Speaker 8: And Trey was a bad contusion and Kissecki was a 1639 01:17:55,920 --> 01:17:57,519 Speaker 8: pack I don't know how serious either one. 1640 01:17:57,400 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 4: Of them were. 1641 01:18:01,040 --> 01:18:03,479 Speaker 8: I thought certainly he had a lot of confidence, got 1642 01:18:03,520 --> 01:18:06,360 Speaker 8: into a rhythm. There's time where you getting those games 1643 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:08,720 Speaker 8: where you're having to throw the ball there at the 1644 01:18:08,800 --> 01:18:10,960 Speaker 8: end to get back in it. 1645 01:18:10,960 --> 01:18:12,759 Speaker 7: It's not all stuff that's on the call sheet. 1646 01:18:12,880 --> 01:18:14,400 Speaker 8: I mean we're having add a lib a little bit 1647 01:18:14,720 --> 01:18:17,360 Speaker 8: as you were exploring how they're playing our guys. 1648 01:18:17,840 --> 01:18:19,280 Speaker 7: You have to adjust as the game goes. 1649 01:18:19,560 --> 01:18:22,479 Speaker 8: I thought he did an unbelievable job handling that just 1650 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:25,000 Speaker 8: a description of a play at times, and he just 1651 01:18:25,000 --> 01:18:27,320 Speaker 8: made it work and found ways to get the balls 1652 01:18:27,360 --> 01:18:29,080 Speaker 8: to our guys, you know, and he knows where to 1653 01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:30,080 Speaker 8: find Jamar and tea and. 1654 01:18:30,720 --> 01:18:34,439 Speaker 16: Five days from the trade to start or encoursed by 1655 01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:35,080 Speaker 16: the chemistry. 1656 01:18:35,360 --> 01:18:38,040 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think you have to be. I mean, we're 1657 01:18:38,080 --> 01:18:40,160 Speaker 8: disappointed we didn't win the game. We didn't come here 1658 01:18:40,200 --> 01:18:42,479 Speaker 8: to lose the game. We came in here with enough 1659 01:18:43,400 --> 01:18:45,760 Speaker 8: to win. And I think if obviously, if we've done 1660 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:48,720 Speaker 8: a better job complimenting each other, better job with the 1661 01:18:48,720 --> 01:18:51,800 Speaker 8: field position battle, we would have given ourselves a much 1662 01:18:51,840 --> 01:18:55,839 Speaker 8: better opportunity. Turnovers one and nothing, penalties we had three. 1663 01:18:56,200 --> 01:18:57,479 Speaker 8: I mean a lot of things. We came in here 1664 01:18:57,520 --> 01:18:58,680 Speaker 8: and said we're going to have to do to win 1665 01:18:58,720 --> 01:19:02,920 Speaker 8: the game. We did and we just again it was 1666 01:19:02,920 --> 01:19:05,479 Speaker 8: it was it was too little in each half, by 1667 01:19:05,560 --> 01:19:06,200 Speaker 8: by each unit. 1668 01:19:06,240 --> 01:19:11,120 Speaker 4: There the final drive of eating tomorrow A lot for. 1669 01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:14,360 Speaker 8: A better term. Yeah, I thought he did a great job. 1670 01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:18,200 Speaker 8: He did a great job with the protections, did a 1671 01:19:18,240 --> 01:19:20,200 Speaker 8: great job handling the whole offense. And that's that's a 1672 01:19:20,240 --> 01:19:23,680 Speaker 8: credit to him, and it's you can't just walk in 1673 01:19:23,720 --> 01:19:25,880 Speaker 8: there with nothing, you know, and going to Lambeau and 1674 01:19:26,160 --> 01:19:28,160 Speaker 8: expect to meet the Green Bay Packers with nothing. So 1675 01:19:29,120 --> 01:19:31,200 Speaker 8: we tried to find ways to get as much in 1676 01:19:31,240 --> 01:19:33,640 Speaker 8: as we could, and we were able to do that 1677 01:19:33,680 --> 01:19:36,320 Speaker 8: because the confidence that he really gave us each day 1678 01:19:36,320 --> 01:19:38,719 Speaker 8: that passed as he recided the play calls and meetings 1679 01:19:38,720 --> 01:19:41,400 Speaker 8: and in practice he was handling it all. And I 1680 01:19:41,400 --> 01:19:43,400 Speaker 8: know he's played a lot of ball, but it doesn't matter, 1681 01:19:43,520 --> 01:19:44,679 Speaker 8: you know, when you go in here and you're learning 1682 01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:47,400 Speaker 8: a new offense and new receivers, and you know, Jamar 1683 01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:49,840 Speaker 8: really was was limited, you know, two of the days 1684 01:19:49,880 --> 01:19:52,360 Speaker 8: this week, and you know that's to go out there 1685 01:19:52,360 --> 01:19:54,040 Speaker 8: and have that sort of connection, it's pretty impressive. 1686 01:19:57,040 --> 01:20:00,760 Speaker 4: It's very common thread that your biggers learned about the 1687 01:20:00,760 --> 01:20:01,920 Speaker 4: most of why they are. 1688 01:20:03,520 --> 01:20:07,080 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think that's the best way to say it, 1689 01:20:07,160 --> 01:20:09,800 Speaker 8: you know, is it's hard to say there's a common thread. 1690 01:20:09,920 --> 01:20:11,920 Speaker 8: The common thread is we're not scoring and we're not 1691 01:20:11,960 --> 01:20:15,320 Speaker 8: moving the ball well enough to say that each game 1692 01:20:15,360 --> 01:20:17,400 Speaker 8: has been the same. It is not true. You know, 1693 01:20:17,479 --> 01:20:22,519 Speaker 8: one game with turnovers, another game's penalties. This one, we 1694 01:20:22,640 --> 01:20:26,120 Speaker 8: just we just lacked rhythm early on and just got 1695 01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:27,080 Speaker 8: to find a way to start faster. 1696 01:20:27,120 --> 01:20:29,479 Speaker 4: There go ahead, just as animated as a senior after 1697 01:20:29,520 --> 01:20:30,040 Speaker 4: the two. 1698 01:20:29,920 --> 01:20:32,640 Speaker 7: Wins, and well, we just we had a hope. We 1699 01:20:32,640 --> 01:20:33,519 Speaker 7: expected to win the game. 1700 01:20:33,600 --> 01:20:35,559 Speaker 8: You know, when you come here to Lambo and you 1701 01:20:35,640 --> 01:20:37,519 Speaker 8: put pressure on them, you know, you go, you go 1702 01:20:37,600 --> 01:20:41,240 Speaker 8: for two, make it down six, And now they got 1703 01:20:41,240 --> 01:20:42,920 Speaker 8: pressure on them, and so I think it just gave 1704 01:20:42,920 --> 01:20:45,880 Speaker 8: our team some energy, gave me confidence that we're gonna 1705 01:20:45,880 --> 01:20:47,640 Speaker 8: win the game. When that stuff happens for us, you 1706 01:20:47,720 --> 01:20:49,479 Speaker 8: just you feel like we're gonna go win. And so 1707 01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:54,000 Speaker 8: I think that's just frustrated right now because we we 1708 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:56,000 Speaker 8: we weren't able to pull out. And these guys are 1709 01:20:56,000 --> 01:20:57,920 Speaker 8: deserved that this is This is a team I know 1710 01:20:57,960 --> 01:21:00,040 Speaker 8: we've we've lost several games in a row. Now we 1711 01:21:00,080 --> 01:21:03,080 Speaker 8: don't feel that and I mean this is a positive thing. 1712 01:21:03,400 --> 01:21:06,639 Speaker 8: These guys expect to win. They believe in each other. 1713 01:21:07,320 --> 01:21:09,600 Speaker 8: We are going to break through and we are going 1714 01:21:09,680 --> 01:21:11,200 Speaker 8: to be in the thick of this thing and we 1715 01:21:11,240 --> 01:21:14,320 Speaker 8: are going to find some wins. We're gonna hang tight together, 1716 01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:16,519 Speaker 8: and it's gonna come sooner rather than later. 1717 01:21:16,520 --> 01:21:18,280 Speaker 7: I can promise you that. And you just know, just 1718 01:21:18,320 --> 01:21:20,000 Speaker 7: looking at these guys and what they're made of. 1719 01:21:19,960 --> 01:21:22,599 Speaker 8: And the lack of finger pointing, and the accountability they've 1720 01:21:22,600 --> 01:21:24,160 Speaker 8: all had, and the confidence in. 1721 01:21:24,120 --> 01:21:24,960 Speaker 7: The house, all having each other. 1722 01:21:25,000 --> 01:21:27,920 Speaker 8: We just had a tough stretch and we haven't created 1723 01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:30,439 Speaker 8: the plays that we need to create to win the game. 1724 01:21:30,520 --> 01:21:32,760 Speaker 8: But I've been around long enough to know that we 1725 01:21:32,840 --> 01:21:37,000 Speaker 8: have the ingredients and we're gonna figure it out, and 1726 01:21:37,040 --> 01:21:38,600 Speaker 8: we're gonna find a way to be right in the 1727 01:21:38,640 --> 01:21:40,640 Speaker 8: thick of this thing when it matters. 1728 01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:44,559 Speaker 2: Most ninety six hours or so, what was your message? 1729 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:46,920 Speaker 8: You don't have a lot of time to lick your 1730 01:21:46,920 --> 01:21:49,519 Speaker 8: wounds here. You know, it's it's more of a mental 1731 01:21:49,560 --> 01:21:52,760 Speaker 8: week this week. But what a tremendous opportunity. Look at 1732 01:21:52,800 --> 01:21:55,800 Speaker 8: where our division's at. What a tremendous opportunity to go 1733 01:21:55,800 --> 01:21:57,920 Speaker 8: get the team that's leading it right now, and our 1734 01:21:57,960 --> 01:22:00,320 Speaker 8: first opportunity at home in prime time. They got a 1735 01:22:00,320 --> 01:22:02,559 Speaker 8: short week, We got a short week, So it's it's 1736 01:22:02,600 --> 01:22:04,920 Speaker 8: a fair playing field, and and they're gonna come in 1737 01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:07,360 Speaker 8: here with a lot of confidence obviously the way that 1738 01:22:07,400 --> 01:22:10,080 Speaker 8: they've won their games, and we're gonna find a way 1739 01:22:10,080 --> 01:22:12,640 Speaker 8: to get up for it and do everything we can 1740 01:22:12,680 --> 01:22:13,160 Speaker 8: to find a win. 1741 01:22:13,280 --> 01:22:16,440 Speaker 9: Do you think that's second hand can. 1742 01:22:15,960 --> 01:22:16,840 Speaker 5: Potentially turn. 1743 01:22:19,200 --> 01:22:21,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think it's got more of a chance to 1744 01:22:21,200 --> 01:22:23,519 Speaker 8: do that than not. You know, when when you've you've 1745 01:22:23,560 --> 01:22:26,720 Speaker 8: got confidence. I'm careful because we didn't. We didn't do 1746 01:22:26,840 --> 01:22:29,840 Speaker 8: enough to win there, but but there is confidence on 1747 01:22:30,000 --> 01:22:32,720 Speaker 8: offense with Joe just showing up that that we can 1748 01:22:32,760 --> 01:22:35,080 Speaker 8: continue to play off that'll we entirely do different defense, 1749 01:22:35,120 --> 01:22:37,320 Speaker 8: different structure, and again we just got to come together 1750 01:22:37,360 --> 01:22:38,559 Speaker 8: as a team, figure it out and find a way 1751 01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:38,760 Speaker 8: to win. 1752 01:22:40,280 --> 01:22:42,240 Speaker 14: Two specific players. 1753 01:22:42,280 --> 01:22:45,880 Speaker 9: While Mars touchdown, which team this kind. 1754 01:22:45,720 --> 01:22:50,479 Speaker 8: Of Yeah, I thought DJ showed up big time. I 1755 01:22:50,560 --> 01:22:52,040 Speaker 8: thought he made a lot of players on the ball. 1756 01:22:52,640 --> 01:22:54,840 Speaker 8: He operates with a lot of confidence, he practices hard, 1757 01:22:54,920 --> 01:22:57,360 Speaker 8: it's important to him. We've seen a lot of leadership 1758 01:22:57,400 --> 01:23:00,600 Speaker 8: qualities from him, and so I was was excited to 1759 01:23:00,640 --> 01:23:03,360 Speaker 8: see DJ. I'm not surprised. I was excited, not surprised 1760 01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:05,760 Speaker 8: that he did a great job getting Sands some balls 1761 01:23:05,760 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 8: and he was there. 1762 01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:07,080 Speaker 7: It's the key moments. 1763 01:23:07,840 --> 01:23:10,960 Speaker 8: Jama's touchdown catch is unbelievable, you know, it's it's really 1764 01:23:12,360 --> 01:23:14,400 Speaker 8: I can't even tell you the description of the route 1765 01:23:14,479 --> 01:23:16,679 Speaker 8: we ran there, because that was one of those here's 1766 01:23:16,720 --> 01:23:18,160 Speaker 8: what he's gonna do, and let's do it and I'll 1767 01:23:18,200 --> 01:23:19,760 Speaker 8: see how it played out. I know they had, you know, 1768 01:23:19,880 --> 01:23:22,040 Speaker 8: tight coverage underneath and the safety leaning over the top, 1769 01:23:22,120 --> 01:23:24,599 Speaker 8: and Joe gave me a chance and somehow Joe Jamar 1770 01:23:24,760 --> 01:23:26,519 Speaker 8: just found a way to make a huge play for 1771 01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:28,479 Speaker 8: us that that again gave us a lot of energy 1772 01:23:28,479 --> 01:23:33,640 Speaker 8: and gave us a chance. Yeah, I'm careful with the 1773 01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,680 Speaker 8: silver lining because our expectation is not to be in 1774 01:23:36,720 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 8: the spot we're in right now, but it's where we are, 1775 01:23:39,439 --> 01:23:41,679 Speaker 8: and so we we have to continue to move forward 1776 01:23:42,160 --> 01:23:46,559 Speaker 8: and the way it's shaken out, we're still right there 1777 01:23:46,680 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 8: with the perfect opportunity in front of us. So our 1778 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:51,760 Speaker 8: guys understand that you don't have to I don't feel 1779 01:23:51,760 --> 01:23:54,000 Speaker 8: like I got a tiptoe around how I say everything. Hey, 1780 01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,720 Speaker 8: we're we're we've we've lost several games in a row 1781 01:23:56,840 --> 01:23:58,720 Speaker 8: and we're still a good team. 1782 01:23:58,720 --> 01:24:00,160 Speaker 7: I don't feel like you have to tip, So you 1783 01:24:00,160 --> 01:24:02,080 Speaker 7: don't have to treat them like that. They understand. 1784 01:24:02,400 --> 01:24:03,120 Speaker 5: They know what we have. 1785 01:24:04,240 --> 01:24:07,320 Speaker 8: I know it's probably dark outside the building, but they 1786 01:24:07,360 --> 01:24:09,439 Speaker 8: don't really feel that. I think there's a lot of 1787 01:24:09,479 --> 01:24:11,320 Speaker 8: confidence here that we're the team that we set out 1788 01:24:11,360 --> 01:24:13,760 Speaker 8: to be in training camp in the off season, and 1789 01:24:14,120 --> 01:24:16,439 Speaker 8: we're gonna find those opportunities and we'll be right there 1790 01:24:16,640 --> 01:24:17,480 Speaker 8: when it matters. 1791 01:24:17,240 --> 01:24:21,120 Speaker 3: Most Zach Taylor Assessing yesterday and looking ahead to Thursday night. 1792 01:24:21,200 --> 01:24:23,360 Speaker 3: We'll look ahead the Steelers more in depth as we 1793 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:26,439 Speaker 3: continue Bengals Line on the Bengals Radio Network in seven 1794 01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:28,160 Speaker 3: hundred WLW. 1795 01:24:31,040 --> 01:24:33,360 Speaker 4: Good Coach for the Bengals Coach of the Week presented 1796 01:24:33,400 --> 01:24:36,200 Speaker 4: by pay Corps Visit Bengals dot Com Slash Coach of 1797 01:24:36,240 --> 01:24:36,479 Speaker 4: the Week. 1798 01:24:36,560 --> 01:24:39,599 Speaker 3: Let's get more perspective on yesterday's performance from the new guy, 1799 01:24:39,760 --> 01:24:41,960 Speaker 3: Joe Flacco after the game with the media. 1800 01:24:42,200 --> 01:24:44,720 Speaker 10: Well, I thought as an offense, we settled in, you know, 1801 01:24:44,800 --> 01:24:46,560 Speaker 10: probably sometime in the second quarter, and not that we 1802 01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:48,200 Speaker 10: were able to get over the hump in that quarter, 1803 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:51,280 Speaker 10: but we we came out and played a good a 1804 01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:55,040 Speaker 10: good second half, you know. But usually against a good 1805 01:24:55,040 --> 01:24:58,080 Speaker 10: football team, it's playing one good half isn't going to 1806 01:24:58,120 --> 01:24:59,720 Speaker 10: be good enough. But we gave ourselves a chance down 1807 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:01,800 Speaker 10: the end, and and I think we did some good things, 1808 01:25:01,920 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 10: but just not enough early on. Oh listen, I think 1809 01:25:06,720 --> 01:25:08,519 Speaker 10: we settled down a little bit, started getting a little 1810 01:25:08,520 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 10: girthm I think that first drive really helped. I mean, 1811 01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:12,360 Speaker 10: anytime you can keep a defense, it's not easy when 1812 01:25:12,360 --> 01:25:14,679 Speaker 10: you have to go twenty plays to score a touchdown, 1813 01:25:14,800 --> 01:25:17,040 Speaker 10: but anytime you can keep a defense on the field 1814 01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:19,320 Speaker 10: that long, it is to your advantage. I think you 1815 01:25:19,360 --> 01:25:21,320 Speaker 10: can wear them out a little bit. And you know, 1816 01:25:21,400 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 10: we it's not like we ran the ball for a 1817 01:25:23,960 --> 01:25:25,759 Speaker 10: ton of yards. We did have some pretty good runs 1818 01:25:26,040 --> 01:25:28,519 Speaker 10: in terms for first down conversions, and you know, you 1819 01:25:28,560 --> 01:25:30,560 Speaker 10: could start to you could start to feel the physicality 1820 01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:33,040 Speaker 10: of of of us kind of pick up as the 1821 01:25:33,120 --> 01:25:34,600 Speaker 10: game went on the. 1822 01:25:34,600 --> 01:25:38,800 Speaker 4: Run, like you still getting used to be on a 1823 01:25:38,880 --> 01:25:39,280 Speaker 4: new team. 1824 01:25:39,439 --> 01:25:42,760 Speaker 10: I probably settled down a little bit, for sure. I 1825 01:25:42,800 --> 01:25:44,960 Speaker 10: thought that there was at least one or two where 1826 01:25:44,960 --> 01:25:48,479 Speaker 10: I where I could have taken just quicker the short one. 1827 01:25:49,400 --> 01:25:51,240 Speaker 10: But also, listen, they're a good defense, you know, so 1828 01:25:51,320 --> 01:25:53,000 Speaker 10: you got to give them a little bit of credit. 1829 01:25:53,080 --> 01:25:57,880 Speaker 10: And it's just kind of how it was that. 1830 01:26:00,920 --> 01:26:02,920 Speaker 15: Make that catch that you want to catch, man makes 1831 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:05,000 Speaker 15: that catch for you then you make me two points. 1832 01:26:05,120 --> 01:26:09,400 Speaker 10: Yeah that listen, you're still I mean, after after the 1833 01:26:09,520 --> 01:26:11,840 Speaker 10: two point version, I was pretty pumped up. But in 1834 01:26:11,960 --> 01:26:15,880 Speaker 10: the moment, you're just trying to keep it simple. Take 1835 01:26:15,960 --> 01:26:17,639 Speaker 10: it for what it played, one play at a time. 1836 01:26:19,200 --> 01:26:19,519 Speaker 2: Yuh y. 1837 01:26:19,640 --> 01:26:21,040 Speaker 10: You know, I kind of kept telling myself that on 1838 01:26:21,080 --> 01:26:23,360 Speaker 10: the sideline today. You know, don't get don't get too 1839 01:26:23,439 --> 01:26:27,360 Speaker 10: high in this environment. Just kind of no matter what 1840 01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:30,559 Speaker 10: the scoreboard says and and what's going on, just remember 1841 01:26:30,600 --> 01:26:33,400 Speaker 10: to keep continue to play each play and and look, 1842 01:26:33,439 --> 01:26:35,000 Speaker 10: I mean there's a league if you if you're able 1843 01:26:35,040 --> 01:26:37,439 Speaker 10: to do that consistently, then you're gonna put yourself in 1844 01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:38,080 Speaker 10: it down the stretch. 1845 01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:40,640 Speaker 5: What any difference do you've seen how that Jamor and 1846 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:42,320 Speaker 5: your game games and catch? 1847 01:26:44,080 --> 01:26:46,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, I mean I I came over the sideline 1848 01:26:46,840 --> 01:26:48,760 Speaker 10: a couple of times. It was telling Jake like just 1849 01:26:48,800 --> 01:26:50,760 Speaker 10: the way they plucked the ball out of the air, 1850 01:26:51,040 --> 01:26:53,080 Speaker 10: like I threw a I threw like a quick out 1851 01:26:53,120 --> 01:26:57,040 Speaker 10: route to j to to Jamar and I didn't get 1852 01:26:57,040 --> 01:26:59,040 Speaker 10: the ball great and it it was like a an 1853 01:26:59,080 --> 01:27:02,040 Speaker 10: awful spiral and he still just caught it like with 1854 01:27:02,200 --> 01:27:04,519 Speaker 10: both hands. And then the one one that I can 1855 01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:06,760 Speaker 10: think about to t uh. We hit 'em on a 1856 01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:10,080 Speaker 10: like little like inside slant route for a third down 1857 01:27:10,400 --> 01:27:12,160 Speaker 10: on I think on that first drive of the second half, 1858 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:14,960 Speaker 10: and a lot of guys would go down and kind 1859 01:27:14,960 --> 01:27:16,519 Speaker 10: of catch it with their body and slide and and 1860 01:27:16,640 --> 01:27:18,320 Speaker 10: he just plucked it right out of the air with 1861 01:27:18,520 --> 01:27:19,080 Speaker 10: with both hands. 1862 01:27:19,120 --> 01:27:20,679 Speaker 6: It's pretty impressive to see those guys. 1863 01:27:20,520 --> 01:27:23,360 Speaker 4: Go fourth down. That was that an act with. 1864 01:27:25,000 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 10: Too fourth down for the touchdown? Which one was that 1865 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:29,479 Speaker 10: the one in the back of the end zone? 1866 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:29,640 Speaker 3: Oh? 1867 01:27:29,680 --> 01:27:29,920 Speaker 9: The one? 1868 01:27:30,000 --> 01:27:31,120 Speaker 5: The uh the one that you're married? 1869 01:27:31,320 --> 01:27:32,240 Speaker 2: Were they both fourth down? 1870 01:27:32,439 --> 01:27:32,639 Speaker 5: Yep? 1871 01:27:35,040 --> 01:27:35,160 Speaker 18: Uh? 1872 01:27:35,439 --> 01:27:37,519 Speaker 10: They came up and pressed him. We had, you know, 1873 01:27:37,720 --> 01:27:39,600 Speaker 10: so we had we we we we were able to 1874 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:42,840 Speaker 10: take a shot. And I mean listen, obviously, when when 1875 01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:45,000 Speaker 10: he gets one on one, you y y y, you'd 1876 01:27:45,080 --> 01:27:48,240 Speaker 10: be you know, I think you'd be wrong a lot 1877 01:27:48,320 --> 01:27:51,840 Speaker 10: to not go his way. Obviously, you're jumping into an 1878 01:27:52,479 --> 01:27:56,160 Speaker 10: a team in a situations the fourth loss. You have 1879 01:27:57,080 --> 01:28:00,920 Speaker 10: those losses, but you see after today only recently need 1880 01:28:01,000 --> 01:28:01,679 Speaker 10: that you guys. 1881 01:28:01,479 --> 01:28:03,040 Speaker 2: Can for sure for sure. 1882 01:28:03,120 --> 01:28:05,920 Speaker 10: I mean, listen, this is a long season, and I 1883 01:28:06,040 --> 01:28:07,960 Speaker 10: I know it's easy to be down on yourself in 1884 01:28:08,080 --> 01:28:12,320 Speaker 10: hard times, but you know, playing with confidence shows, so 1885 01:28:12,479 --> 01:28:14,240 Speaker 10: we gotta find a way to kind of get some 1886 01:28:14,360 --> 01:28:14,880 Speaker 10: of that back. 1887 01:28:15,040 --> 01:28:19,120 Speaker 5: But I I I think we do have the ability 1888 01:28:19,120 --> 01:28:19,360 Speaker 5: to do that. 1889 01:28:19,439 --> 01:28:23,360 Speaker 10: Listen, we got a big week coming up, and you 1890 01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:26,280 Speaker 10: know the D these division games are are always good matchups, 1891 01:28:26,320 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 10: and uh, going in and playing a good game this 1892 01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:32,599 Speaker 10: upcoming week could help a lot with that. I think 1893 01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:34,280 Speaker 10: today probably helped a little bit. But y, you know, 1894 01:28:34,400 --> 01:28:35,280 Speaker 10: you still wanna win. 1895 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:37,439 Speaker 17: The game in the same half though that you guys 1896 01:28:37,439 --> 01:28:38,480 Speaker 17: have a home times. 1897 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:41,559 Speaker 7: Ye hope. 1898 01:28:41,600 --> 01:28:43,360 Speaker 10: So I mean you you're always looking for ways to 1899 01:28:43,560 --> 01:28:46,920 Speaker 10: to play with confidence. I think, uh, you know, they 1900 01:28:47,000 --> 01:28:49,120 Speaker 10: talk about learning how to win, and good football teams 1901 01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 10: know how to do that. That's because they always believe 1902 01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:53,840 Speaker 10: they can win. And and listen, I I've only been 1903 01:28:53,880 --> 01:28:55,519 Speaker 10: here for a week, but I I think these guys 1904 01:28:55,560 --> 01:28:56,720 Speaker 10: in the locker room got a good head on their 1905 01:28:56,720 --> 01:28:58,439 Speaker 10: shoulders and I'm excited to get to work with them. 1906 01:29:05,120 --> 01:29:05,760 Speaker 7: That's your question. 1907 01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:13,439 Speaker 10: Yeah, it's act's been great man, level headed, and I 1908 01:29:13,640 --> 01:29:15,000 Speaker 10: I mean, obviously it's been a lot of help for 1909 01:29:15,080 --> 01:29:18,080 Speaker 10: me this week, just putting the game plan together, not 1910 01:29:18,240 --> 01:29:21,320 Speaker 10: trying to get too complicated with things like fun. 1911 01:29:23,760 --> 01:29:24,680 Speaker 6: I think sometimes like. 1912 01:29:26,200 --> 01:29:29,080 Speaker 10: Bec wasn't starting in this league's a big deal. I 1913 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:31,360 Speaker 10: think sometimes you can make it too big of a 1914 01:29:31,439 --> 01:29:33,280 Speaker 10: deal in your head. So I think for me this 1915 01:29:33,400 --> 01:29:36,519 Speaker 10: time around, it was just hey man, you're playing a game, 1916 01:29:36,960 --> 01:29:39,400 Speaker 10: and it's it just goes in line with that. Let 1917 01:29:39,439 --> 01:29:41,200 Speaker 10: the game come to you a little bit. Just play 1918 01:29:41,240 --> 01:29:43,000 Speaker 10: each play, do what you're supposed to do on that play. 1919 01:29:44,600 --> 01:29:47,719 Speaker 10: Even though it is a big deal, try to downplay 1920 01:29:47,720 --> 01:29:48,920 Speaker 10: it a little bit so you can go out there 1921 01:29:48,960 --> 01:29:50,840 Speaker 10: and have fun and and and play your best. 1922 01:29:51,080 --> 01:29:52,560 Speaker 4: I was a communication y. 1923 01:29:52,640 --> 01:29:53,800 Speaker 10: I think it was pretty good. I mean, there was 1924 01:29:53,840 --> 01:29:55,680 Speaker 10: a couple of plays where out there. I remember one 1925 01:29:55,720 --> 01:29:57,559 Speaker 10: play I think we actually ended up kind of getting 1926 01:29:57,640 --> 01:29:59,800 Speaker 10: what we wanted, but I we got I think that 1927 01:29:59,840 --> 01:30:02,759 Speaker 10: they got pass interference on Jamar down the right sideline 1928 01:30:02,800 --> 01:30:05,200 Speaker 10: or holding or whatever they ended up calling, but I 1929 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:07,720 Speaker 10: definitely didn't call the right play, and I said, so 1930 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:09,760 Speaker 10: that's why I kind of signaled out to Jamar. 1931 01:30:09,640 --> 01:30:10,639 Speaker 6: Just hey, you run this route. 1932 01:30:10,760 --> 01:30:13,960 Speaker 10: I know, I know we can get that done. But overall, 1933 01:30:14,040 --> 01:30:15,280 Speaker 10: I think it went pretty well. 1934 01:30:16,320 --> 01:30:19,080 Speaker 18: That has gone through, you know, stretching this team has 1935 01:30:19,160 --> 01:30:21,439 Speaker 18: currently going through, or anything that you can say to 1936 01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:22,200 Speaker 18: this group. 1937 01:30:22,040 --> 01:30:23,519 Speaker 5: That has as. 1938 01:30:26,160 --> 01:30:29,080 Speaker 10: It's tough to like generally say something to like the team, 1939 01:30:29,479 --> 01:30:32,240 Speaker 10: but I think as like you can see individuals throughout 1940 01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:34,040 Speaker 10: the course of a game or in the locker room 1941 01:30:34,080 --> 01:30:35,960 Speaker 10: right now, I think it can be very helpful to 1942 01:30:36,000 --> 01:30:38,000 Speaker 10: go up to individuals that maybe feel like they're having 1943 01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:39,880 Speaker 10: a hard time or whatever it may be, and give them, 1944 01:30:40,800 --> 01:30:43,200 Speaker 10: you know, give them that that vote of confidence. Listen, 1945 01:30:44,479 --> 01:30:48,320 Speaker 10: sometimes you get so focused on what you didn't do well, 1946 01:30:48,520 --> 01:30:50,759 Speaker 10: and you think everybody's looking at you.

It 2179 01:42:44,040 --> 01:42:46,560 Speaker 19: we had certain agendas that we thought were critical to 2180 01:42:47,320 --> 01:42:49,920 Speaker 19: making this game unfold the way we desired for. Dunfold 2181 01:42:50,760 --> 01:42:54,360 Speaker 19: we thought they played behind the. Runner we wanted to 2182 01:42:54,400 --> 01:42:56,439 Speaker 19: do a good job of minimizing, him AND i think 2183 01:42:56,960 --> 01:43:00,120 Speaker 19: we did. That when you do, that then you're in 2184 01:43:00,200 --> 01:43:03,160 Speaker 19: favorable one dimensional passing circumstances for your, defense AND i 2185 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,360 Speaker 19: think that was reflected in the pressure that we were 2186 01:43:05,360 --> 01:43:07,880 Speaker 19: able to put on the quarterback on the other side 2187 01:43:07,880 --> 01:43:09,360 Speaker 19: of the. Ball we were able to stay on schedule 2188 01:43:09,400 --> 01:43:13,439 Speaker 19: and minimize those one dimensional, moments to Minimize Miles garritts 2189 01:43:13,439 --> 01:43:15,720 Speaker 19: impact on the, game and so like some of those 2190 01:43:15,760 --> 01:43:17,720 Speaker 19: agendas man that we, had we were able to get, 2191 01:43:17,720 --> 01:43:20,840 Speaker 19: accomplished AND i think that's why we engineered. Victory one 2192 01:43:20,880 --> 01:43:24,200 Speaker 19: area where we certainly fell short is a penalty. Component 2193 01:43:25,080 --> 01:43:27,960 Speaker 19: we scout crews just like we scout. Teams we noticed 2194 01:43:28,000 --> 01:43:30,600 Speaker 19: crew throws a lot of, penalties and we dropped the 2195 01:43:30,640 --> 01:43:32,080 Speaker 19: ball in terms of our preparedness. 2196 01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:34,680 Speaker 4: There i'll accept responsibility for.
