21
00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,560
Speaker 4: we get with Keegan nikoson on Thursdays, but there is

22
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 4: a lot of Bearcat conversation happening. I'm also off tomorrow,

23
00:01:17,760 --> 00:01:20,480
Speaker 4: so wanted to get a UC dynamic leading into the

24
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:22,000
Speaker 4: game against Alabama State tonight.

25
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 3: Why Gigsel James is back Austin Tournament.

26
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:31,120
Speaker 4: Back on Gigsel James back for the Bearcats. It is

27
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:35,679
Speaker 4: said that Jizzle will play tonight. My only question Austin,

28
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:41,440
Speaker 4: when March Madness rolls around, will the committee throw away

29
00:01:41,480 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 4: the losses that the Bearcats have had without Gigsel on

30
00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,720
Speaker 4: the roster because they'll be a completely different team.

31
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 3: I mean, it's the only logical approach to a true

32
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 3: evaluation of the Bearcat basketball team. Thank you, thank you.

33
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 3: I don't know what to make of it. I I mean,

34
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 3: we've heard rumblings about this for a while now, Yeah,

35
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:06,600
Speaker 3: and it was kind of unclear what was actually ever

36
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:11,120
Speaker 3: going to happen, and now it's it's culminated in this

37
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,959
Speaker 3: and I've seen a lot of Bearcat fans the immediate

38
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 3: reaction saying, desperate times call for desperate measures. Yeah, I mean,

39
00:02:18,680 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: obviously whatever was going on in Gisel's personal life, it's

40
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 3: great news that he's sure gotten back to the point

41
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 3: where he's able to rejoin the basketball team, and I

42
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 3: think we're all happy about that, but how much does

43
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 3: this actually change things for them?

44
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 4: I mean, we've we've had stuff, Austin. I think Chad

45
00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 4: Breundle was in one day for MO and I asked

46
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 4: Chad about Gigzl. He said, look, Gigsel's not going to

47
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:42,560
Speaker 4: play this year. Chad is as connected to the program

48
00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 4: as you'll find. Something has had to change, and again,

49
00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 4: I think there is a desperation feel to it. We'll

50
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,560
Speaker 4: talk to Chad about that this afternoon. But regardless of

51
00:02:53,080 --> 00:02:56,360
Speaker 4: any of that and what you feel of Gigsel playing

52
00:02:56,440 --> 00:02:58,799
Speaker 4: or not playing, I do think Austin the underlying thing

53
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,799
Speaker 4: here here was a guy that had some serious issues

54
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:03,280
Speaker 4: on going off the court and has at least got

55
00:03:03,280 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 4: those in order enough that they feel confident in bringing

56
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:08,920
Speaker 4: them back. That, at least to that extent, is a

57
00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:14,440
Speaker 4: good thing. Louisville basketball fell last night by twenty one

58
00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 4: points at Tennessee. That is their biggest loss of the season.

59
00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,920
Speaker 4: Louisville scheduled very hard, but a loss for the Louisville

60
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 4: Cardinals last night the Dolphins. Austin, how about this, how

61
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 4: about what the Dolphins did today. They cut Matthew Judon.

62
00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 4: They moved on from one of their edge rushers, Matthew Judon.

63
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 4: That is not the craziest thing that the Dolphins have

64
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 4: done today. They also benched Tua Tongue of Ioloa. Yes,

65
00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:51,480
Speaker 4: Quinn Ores will now be the starter for the Dolphins

66
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 4: when they host the Bengals on Sunday. Let's just start

67
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:04,560
Speaker 4: with that alone, Austin, Let's start with Quinnoers. This should

68
00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 4: play into the favor of the Cincinnati Bengals very clearly.

69
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:13,240
Speaker 4: Should should play into the favor of the Cincinnati Bengals.

70
00:04:13,800 --> 00:04:16,920
Speaker 4: Will it play in the favor of the Cincinnati Bengals

71
00:04:17,839 --> 00:04:19,440
Speaker 4: impossible to tell.

72
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 3: With this defense. I mean, there's just no way to

73
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:26,880
Speaker 3: know for sure if they're actually going to show up.

74
00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 3: But friend of the Show Jay Morrison, as you know,

75
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 3: he's great at stats like this, and he looked it up.

76
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:37,160
Speaker 3: The Bengals have faced a quarterback making their NFL debut

77
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 3: starting debut twenty two times previously. In those twenty two games,

78
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:47,800
Speaker 3: the Bengals are fourteen and eight. Oh boy, So historically,

79
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 3: you know, it's it's pretty good. It's not as it's

80
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 3: not twenty two and zero, But it's pretty good. Miami

81
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 3: is obviously at a transitional period for their franchise right now,

82
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 3: now that they've officially been eliminated from the playoffs, and

83
00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:10,360
Speaker 3: with Tua being sat down and Matthew Judon being let go,

84
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 3: I'm curious to see what they look like on Sunday

85
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 3: against the Bengals. The last time the Bengals faced a

86
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 3: quarterback starting their NFL debut, it was Anthony Brown Week

87
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 3: eighteen of twenty twenty two for the Baltimore Ravens. You

88
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 3: might remember that was like the coin flip game, sure,

89
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 3: right after the deamorw Hamlin situation. In that game, Anthony

90
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:36,240
Speaker 3: Brown was nineteen of forty four, two hundred and eighty

91
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 3: six yards, no touchdowns, two picks, and the Bengals sacked

92
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,640
Speaker 3: him four times. And the last time before that, your

93
00:05:43,680 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 3: buddy Mike White with the New York Jets. We all

94
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 3: know how that went. Wow. Okay.

95
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:53,400
Speaker 4: By the way, the Matthew Judon news Austin, he had

96
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 4: played in thirteen games this year yet to register a

97
00:05:55,920 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 4: sack for the Miami Dolphins. Financially, what does this mean

98
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:03,640
Speaker 4: for the Miami Dolphins.

99
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:09,200
Speaker 3: Well, Tua is under contracts for the foreseeable future. He's

100
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 3: already got I think well over fifty million dollars in

101
00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:18,960
Speaker 3: guaranteed money next year for Miami. Let me see if

102
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: I can, if I have the cofing, he has fifty

103
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 3: four million dollars guaranteed to him next year.

104
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:25,680
Speaker 5: Wow.

105
00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:28,920
Speaker 3: So next season he's already fifty four million. This coming

106
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 3: March March fifteenth, three million of his twenty twenty seven

107
00:06:33,440 --> 00:06:38,920
Speaker 3: salary becomes guaranteed. So cutting him would leave ninety nine

108
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:42,800
Speaker 3: million dollars in dead money for the Miami Dolphins. If

109
00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 3: they were to cut him after June first, it would

110
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 3: equal out to sixty seven point four million in dead

111
00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:52,720
Speaker 3: money in twenty twenty six, thirty one point eight million

112
00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,760
Speaker 3: in dead money in twenty twenty seven. We saw most recently,

113
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 3: the last team to do this was the Denver Broncos

114
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 3: when they moved on from Russell Wilson and had a

115
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 3: ton of dead money on their salary cap. They obviously

116
00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 3: used their first round pick on bow Nicks and have

117
00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 3: built that defense. So it's I have a hard time

118
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,960
Speaker 3: believing that Tua won't be the quarterback next year for Miami. Yeah,

119
00:07:17,960 --> 00:07:21,680
Speaker 3: but I think they're in this situation where trying to

120
00:07:21,680 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 3: figure out who they are and if Mike McDaniel is

121
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 3: going to stay, and they got a new GM and

122
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:29,080
Speaker 3: all this other stuff. So just so much money, so

123
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,840
Speaker 3: much money into Tua. The Bengals are now four and

124
00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:36,280
Speaker 3: a half point favorites after this news. Now. Originally, when

125
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,920
Speaker 3: the line came out Sunday night, Miami was favored by

126
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:41,200
Speaker 3: a point and a half. Yep, they played so poorly

127
00:07:41,240 --> 00:07:43,320
Speaker 3: on Monday night in Pittsburgh that it jumped to the

128
00:07:43,360 --> 00:07:46,000
Speaker 3: Bengals by a point and a half. And now with

129
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 3: the news of Tua getting benched, it's crazy half in

130
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 3: favor of the Bengals.

131
00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,480
Speaker 4: For me, I think I would have rather seen Tua.

132
00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:55,520
Speaker 4: I agree, I would rather go against the known and

133
00:07:55,600 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 4: what Tua is than the unknown.

134
00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 3: Every Bengals fan had the same thought when they saw

135
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,200
Speaker 3: that news today. Yep, here we go again. Do this

136
00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:06,480
Speaker 3: a week fourteen and eight. That still is not what

137
00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 3: you want? Like you would rather be like twenty and two.

138
00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 4: No, we'll talk more about what this means for the

139
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,680
Speaker 4: game coming up here now were number one, shout out Austin.

140
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 4: I can't imagine our guy who will talk to a

141
00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:22,000
Speaker 4: two forty five today, Moagger today, oh man, Uh, Moe's

142
00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:24,480
Speaker 4: New York Knicks won the NBA Cup last night over

143
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:27,640
Speaker 4: the Spurs, and then Mo wakes up today and Gisel

144
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:28,320
Speaker 4: James is back.

145
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, what you would talk about? What a span from

146
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,720
Speaker 3: a roller coaster from what happened with the Bengals to

147
00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:39,080
Speaker 3: where he's at now. Unbelievable and cloud nine unbelievable. First

148
00:08:39,160 --> 00:08:42,079
Speaker 3: championship for the Knicks since nineteen seventy three. Oh Spike

149
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 3: Lee was in attendance to I am hearing now though

150
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 3: that they won't be raising a banner really, which is

151
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:51,360
Speaker 3: kind of disappointing. Yeah, very very disappointing.

152
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 5: Uh.

153
00:08:52,080 --> 00:08:57,440
Speaker 4: We will talk more the NFL weekends late coming up today. Also, Austin,

154
00:08:57,480 --> 00:09:01,680
Speaker 4: the Reds have made a move, Yes, they have now

155
00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:05,360
Speaker 4: all off season Austin. What have we talked about? Will

156
00:09:05,440 --> 00:09:10,440
Speaker 4: the Reds sign a hometown hero? Will they sign an

157
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:15,320
Speaker 4: Ohio native who could bring championships to this organization? And

158
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:18,760
Speaker 4: while many thought that that dream may have died last week,

159
00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:22,720
Speaker 4: the Reds might be back.

160
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 3: Austin.

161
00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:30,040
Speaker 4: They have signed left handed pitcher Caleb Ferguson. Let's go

162
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 4: Ferguson to the Reds.

163
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:32,800
Speaker 3: Nice.

164
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:36,280
Speaker 4: He is an Ohio native Columbus, Columbus native with the

165
00:09:36,280 --> 00:09:40,360
Speaker 4: West Jefferson High School. That right there, Austin will probably

166
00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 4: put fans in the stands at Great American Ballpark is

167
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:48,080
Speaker 4: school today are ninety nine days away from opening day.

168
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:51,880
Speaker 3: Caleb Ferguson last year appeared in seventy games with the

169
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,720
Speaker 3: Pirates and the Mariners. Pitch pretty good for the Mariners.

170
00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,280
Speaker 3: He had a three point five to eight earned run average,

171
00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 3: fifty one strikeouts over sixty five, and a third inn.

172
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,480
Speaker 3: If I'm not mistaken, he gave up just two home runs.

173
00:10:03,800 --> 00:10:05,320
Speaker 3: I would have to double check that. I think I

174
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,760
Speaker 3: saw our guy Jeff Carr say that. So not a

175
00:10:07,800 --> 00:10:10,880
Speaker 3: guy who's given up the long ball very often. Listen,

176
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,680
Speaker 3: left handed matchup pitcher is what they needed in this bullpen.

177
00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 3: Francona talked about that a little bit with you know,

178
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:21,800
Speaker 3: Brent Suiter wasn't necessarily that guy. And Lord knows Taylor

179
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: Rogers didn't work out for this team last year. Sam

180
00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 3: Mall was injured for most of it. So Sam Mall's

181
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:29,720
Speaker 3: coming back, we know that they re signed him. I'm

182
00:10:29,720 --> 00:10:32,880
Speaker 3: curious to see what he looks like in spring training.

183
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,760
Speaker 3: Now you've got a guy in Caleb Ferguson, who keep

184
00:10:36,800 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 3: in mind, the Reds hired the former Pirates pitching coach

185
00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 3: this offseason to be a part of their major league

186
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,319
Speaker 3: pitching staff, so there's clearly some familiarity there with him

187
00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 3: and Caleb Ferguson. So we'll see if that works out

188
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 3: for the Rets. Last year, held a left handed batters

189
00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:53,360
Speaker 3: to one eighty four. That's pretty good. That ain't bad.

190
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:57,880
Speaker 4: He was using a multiple multitude of roles for the Pirates.

191
00:10:57,920 --> 00:11:02,000
Speaker 4: Middle reliever, specialist, will leverage arm for different points of

192
00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,480
Speaker 4: the season. Big fastball guy, but Austin. He also has

193
00:11:05,559 --> 00:11:08,920
Speaker 4: a slurve that's between a slider and a curve ball

194
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,320
Speaker 4: that held hitters to two oh eight last year.

195
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 3: He did I'm fascinated by.

196
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 4: He did make three appearances in the postseason with the Mariners.

197
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:20,280
Speaker 4: He allowed five runs in two and two thirds in needs.

198
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Speaker 3: Okay, so maybe, well, you know Caleb Ferguson across the

199
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:28,600
Speaker 3: playoff bridge, when were the hometown kid. Good for him,

200
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:31,120
Speaker 3: good for him, good for the Reds. Now Here's the

201
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:35,040
Speaker 3: other thing. The PI the Padres. They just hired Craig

202
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,439
Speaker 3: Stamman to be their manager, and he is an Ohio guy.

203
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 3: He's from like Versailles. Do you think the next manager

204
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,480
Speaker 3: of the Reds is Craig Stammon, so that you know,

205
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,640
Speaker 3: whenever Francona's done and he's not going to manage forever, obviously,

206
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,000
Speaker 3: probably maybe get some seats, some butts in the seats,

207
00:11:52,400 --> 00:11:54,280
Speaker 3: get the manager. What are the seats for? I mean,

208
00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 3: I'm sure that the seats are for the seats, according

209
00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,240
Speaker 3: to Pete Rose, God bless him, are for asses. Yes,

210
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 3: I don't know if I have that. I used to

211
00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:06,960
Speaker 3: play that all the time. I don't know I do.

212
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:09,880
Speaker 3: I mean, obviously we know how good the seats were

213
00:12:09,920 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 3: when David Bell was the man ticket prices, for sure.

214
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:17,679
Speaker 3: Thank you, Pete, Thank you Pete. So we've got a

215
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,280
Speaker 3: multitude of things just to play these clips all the time.

216
00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:21,960
Speaker 3: I got to get back to this. You know, we've

217
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 3: got a multitude of things to get to today again,

218
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,480
Speaker 3: including the NFL week ahead.

219
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,199
Speaker 4: I thought it'd be a good time today because the

220
00:12:27,400 --> 00:12:31,480
Speaker 4: chemistry they start back up Austin. How about we play

221
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:35,559
Speaker 4: ball or no ball? Oh yeah, today, let's go. Well,

222
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 4: I'll throw some names out. You tell me earlier on

223
00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,440
Speaker 4: one I did that. I was like gotta be I

224
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:42,839
Speaker 4: was like wait, what it's got to be?

225
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 3: That's real?

226
00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:43,719
Speaker 6: Right?

227
00:12:43,800 --> 00:12:48,800
Speaker 3: No, it's not Bowl season, man ball or.

228
00:12:48,800 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 4: No ball with Bowl games starting back up tonight. I

229
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 4: don't know if there's anything else though we have here

230
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 4: uh in segment number one, as I mentioned Zach Taylor

231
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,720
Speaker 4: at one o'clock, Chad Brendle A two A fury of

232

233
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:10,280
Speaker 4: And what this move will do, what it means with

234
00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,439
Speaker 4: the Dolphins benching Tua and cutting Matthew Judaan ahead of

235
00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 4: the matchup against the Bengals on Sunday. We'll take our

236
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 4: first break when we come back. We'll dive into that

237
00:13:19,200 --> 00:13:20,719
Speaker 4: and then we'll get to your phone calls as well.

238
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:23,000
Speaker 4: Five one three seven four nine, fifteen thirty. This is

239
00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 4: Sincy three sixty. Thanks to our friends at Skyline, Chilean.

240
00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 4: Thank you for listening to ESPN fifteen thirty, Cincinnati Sports Station.

241
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:33,920
Speaker 2: Hey Alexa, this is Football in the Natti, brought to

242
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 2: you by Hey during Window Company on ESPN fifteen thirty,

243
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,439
Speaker 2: the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals.

244
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,720
Speaker 4: All right, let's do it. Let's do a little Football

245
00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:49,280
Speaker 4: in the Natti. Let's break down a little bit of

246
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 4: this game on Sunday afternoon, Austin. I also thought maybe

247
00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,920
Speaker 4: an hour number three be because I'm not in tomorrow,

248
00:13:57,000 --> 00:13:58,280
Speaker 4: we could do a little read and react.

249
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,080
Speaker 3: Perhaps we'll see read it react.

250
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 4: Before I get to this, I saw last night via

251
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:07,600
Speaker 4: your social media you had, uh you tuned in for

252
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 4: Hard Knocks. Anything happened of note in Hard Knocks last night?

253
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 3: No very boring episode of Hard Knocks. I did think,

254
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 3: you know that the parts that were interesting were the

255
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:24,960
Speaker 3: league's reaction or those four teams reaction to Philip Rivers

256
00:14:25,160 --> 00:14:28,440
Speaker 3: coming back. I thought that was kind of interesting Lane

257
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:33,240
Speaker 3: Johnson and him rehabbing that Liz Frank injury that he's

258
00:14:33,280 --> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 3: dealing with, and just all the work that kind of

259
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 3: goes into it. But no, it was a it was

260
00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:43,400
Speaker 3: a relatively boring episode, to be completely honest. I mean,

261
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 3: there's three teams there that are really kind of playing

262
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 3: out to string, yeah, and the Eagles who are just

263
00:14:50,240 --> 00:14:52,040
Speaker 3: trying to get back to themselves.

264
00:14:52,160 --> 00:14:56,080
Speaker 4: If you could rank the Hard Knock additions where you

265
00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 4: obviously have the training camp, there was the off season,

266
00:14:58,640 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 4: there's the end season. What do you enjoy the most?

267
00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:06,120
Speaker 3: I always love the training camp version. I did think

268
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:09,040
Speaker 3: last last year's was interesting because the Bengals were making

269
00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 3: a push. Baltimore was there. The the in season version

270
00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,840
Speaker 3: I think is interesting. Uh. I really loved the off

271
00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:21,880
Speaker 3: season version with the Giants. Giants, Giants, they showed way

272
00:15:21,920 --> 00:15:24,040
Speaker 3: too much, showed way too much. It's never going to

273
00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,560
Speaker 3: happen again because of that, but I thought that was

274
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,160
Speaker 3: really cool, Like that was a great look into what

275
00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 3: an NFL operation is like in the off season, and

276
00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 3: I really liked it. Sunday the Cincinnati Bengals. I want

277
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,560
Speaker 3: to interrupt and say this two things actually. Number One,

278
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:44,960
Speaker 3: if you like that type of thing, almost every team

279
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 3: has their own in house version of that, both in

280
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:52,200
Speaker 3: the off season and in the regular season on like

281
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,960
Speaker 3: their YouTube channels and all that. It's it's awesome. I

282
00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,480
Speaker 3: watched the Patriots all the time, I watched the Jags

283
00:15:57,520 --> 00:16:00,760
Speaker 3: like it's all really really interesting stuff. And then finally,

284
00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:03,040
Speaker 3: I know this is football in the Natty. But we

285
00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 3: failed to give a shout out in the first segment

286
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: to the Miami RedHawks basketball. Yes eleven and H eleven

287
00:16:10,280 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 3: and zer they've received top twenty five votes. They beat

288
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,840
Speaker 3: who they beat right State last night took it to

289
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:18,400
Speaker 3: the Right State Raiders in the nuthouse last night, and

290
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:22,160
Speaker 3: here come Travis Steel. Yeah, in the Miami RedHawks at

291
00:16:22,160 --> 00:16:27,800
Speaker 3: eleven and oh, channeling their inner Wally Zerbiak, here they come. Yeah,

292
00:16:27,840 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 3: shout out to Travis Steel in RedHawks eleven and zer

293
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,360
Speaker 3: is a big, big deal. Now do you think that

294
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:37,040
Speaker 3: the Bearcats will pick up the phone for Travis Steele

295
00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 3: after this season? Well, it depends how the Gigsel James

296
00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:43,640
Speaker 3: experiment goes. Of course. You know, we'll see what happens there.

297
00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,720
Speaker 3: And it is an experiment. It is an experiment.

298
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:50,440
Speaker 4: Let's talk about the matchup a little bit on Sunday,

299
00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:54,000
Speaker 4: because I don't think no, not having Matthew Judon makes

300
00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:54,560
Speaker 4: a big difference.

301
00:16:54,560 --> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 3: He's not registered a sack this year in thirteen games.

302
00:16:56,880 --> 00:17:00,360
Speaker 3: The Dolphins have moved on from Matthew Judon. They have

303
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,280
Speaker 3: moved on from Tua Tongue Vailoa.

304
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:08,240
Speaker 4: Now offensively, with Tua as the quarterback, it wasn't like

305
00:17:08,320 --> 00:17:14,000
Speaker 4: this Dolphins passing attack was dominant. They were ranked twenty six,

306
00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 4: twenty seventh in the NFL at just one hundred and

307
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:20,000
Speaker 4: eighty one passing yards per game. What I do think

308
00:17:20,040 --> 00:17:23,359
Speaker 4: this does and I think multiple reasons. Darren Waller is

309
00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:26,840
Speaker 4: having a little bit of a career resurgence since since

310
00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:31,000
Speaker 4: rejoining the Dolphins at two touchdowns last week. He's been

311
00:17:31,040 --> 00:17:34,560
Speaker 4: pretty solid throughout the season when he's been healthy. So

312
00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:37,040
Speaker 4: you look at tight end play and then you think

313
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,040
Speaker 4: of running back and Austin. Are we sleeping on was

314
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:42,159
Speaker 4: it a chain out of Miami?

315
00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:45,040
Speaker 3: I don't know anybody that's sleeping on him. He's one

316
00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 3: of the best running backs in the league.

317
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:50,080
Speaker 4: I mean, he has been fantastic. Now that offense as

318
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 4: a whole in Miami only rushes it for one hundred

319
00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:57,399
Speaker 4: and twenty two yards per game. I didn't realize Austin

320
00:17:57,480 --> 00:17:59,480
Speaker 4: the Reds or the Bengals are still thirty first in

321
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:03,000
Speaker 4: the league at seven yards per game. That surprised me

322
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 4: because I thought the running game had turned a little

323
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:05,960
Speaker 4: bit of the quarter.

324
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:07,479
Speaker 3: It did, It had a stretch of that, and in

325
00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:10,960
Speaker 3: the last two weeks it's completely, you know, falling back off.

326
00:18:11,400 --> 00:18:13,919
Speaker 3: So I don't know exactly what the reason for that is.

327
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 3: Does that tie into Joe Burrow at all? Maybe, But

328
00:18:19,160 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 3: I mean in that first game, obviously they threw the

329
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:25,679
Speaker 3: ball like fifty times. When Burrow came back, But I

330
00:18:25,680 --> 00:18:28,280
Speaker 3: thought they ran it pretty well against Baltimore on Thanksgiving Night.

331
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 3: I thought, I mean, what, they ran it thirty times

332
00:18:31,160 --> 00:18:34,560
Speaker 3: against Baltimore just the other day, and just it's not

333
00:18:34,760 --> 00:18:38,159
Speaker 3: there as efficiently as it was previously. So I'm not

334
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:42,280
Speaker 3: sure exactly what the reason is for that. Maybe it's

335
00:18:42,400 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 3: as simple as Dalton Reisner is just not as good

336
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,560
Speaker 3: of a run blocker, maybe as Jalen Rivers is. I

337
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:49,600
Speaker 3: don't know. Yeah, but yeah.

338
00:18:49,080 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 4: How worrisome is Devin a Chain in this game on Sunday.

339
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 4: He is third in the NFL at eleven and eighty

340
00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 4: six rushing yards. He also leads outside of Jahar Jordan

341
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,120
Speaker 4: for Houston, who's only ran the ball fifteen times this year.

342
00:19:05,480 --> 00:19:08,639
Speaker 4: A Chan has the highest average of yards per carry

343
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 4: in the league. Every rush attempts, he makes five point

344
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,879
Speaker 4: eight yards per carry. He is also a threat in

345
00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 4: the passing game as well for the Miami Dolphins. He

346
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:27,120
Speaker 4: is electric in the open field. He is a matchup problem,

347
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 4: and I would say Austin the number one thing the

348
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:32,959
Speaker 4: Bengals will have to contend with. Especially when you think

349
00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:35,720
Speaker 4: about a quarterback making his first start, what do you

350
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:40,240
Speaker 4: immediately think of check downs? Easy completions. A Chan gives

351
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,399
Speaker 4: you all of that. The Bengals are going to have

352
00:19:42,440 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 4: to do a very good job of not only identifying

353
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:49,480
Speaker 4: where he's at, but making tackles when the opportunity presents

354
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,760
Speaker 4: himself because he is so dynamic after the catch.

355
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, a Chan has elite speed, incredible quickness,

356
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 3: gets to the edge very very quickly. And what I

357
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 3: think is probably the most difficult thing to deal with

358
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 3: if you're the Bengals defense is just the various motions

359
00:20:07,520 --> 00:20:12,479
Speaker 3: and movement and pulling guards and counters and just getting

360
00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:15,359
Speaker 3: guys out in space on the edge that Miami does.

361
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 3: And is it gonna be a little bit different without

362
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 3: Toua Yeah, probably, But their offense is built around their

363
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 3: ability to run the ball and specifically to get it

364
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,119
Speaker 3: out on the edge and get their players in space.

365
00:20:29,240 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 3: And that's where the Bengals have struggled all season long.

366
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:36,399
Speaker 3: So I would expect to, as you mentioned, Darren Waller,

367
00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:38,680
Speaker 3: be a big part of the game and big part

368
00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 3: of the game plan. Play action under center stuff, get

369
00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,400
Speaker 3: those linebackers confused. Just like every other team is teed

370
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:47,560
Speaker 3: off against the Bengals linebackers. Here's what's interesting too about

371
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,400
Speaker 3: you know, Devin h Chan, he's got eleven hundred yards.

372
00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 3: The next closest running back is Ali Gordon with one

373
00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,040
Speaker 3: hundred and ninety one, and he got a little bit

374
00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:58,760
Speaker 3: banged up against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Those guys have both

375
00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,720
Speaker 3: played in fourteen games for Miami this year, so it's

376
00:21:01,760 --> 00:21:05,600
Speaker 3: really all Devin h Chan in the run game. So yeah,

377
00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:08,240
Speaker 3: I mean it starts and stops with them offensively. I mean,

378
00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:13,080
Speaker 3: Jalen Waddles is having a fine seasons, nothing special, but yeah,

379
00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,400
Speaker 3: I mean you mentioned it. Eight Chance their second leading

380
00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 3: receiver and has well over fifteen hundred yards on purpose.

381
00:21:20,400 --> 00:21:20,960
Speaker 3: It's crazy.

382
00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,199
Speaker 4: He's their second leading receiver Austin, but he is their

383
00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:27,160
Speaker 4: leading receiver when it comes to receptions sixty one catches

384
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 4: on the year. They use him again in a multitude

385
00:21:31,480 --> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 4: of ways. You're going to have to stop him now

386
00:21:33,960 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 4: on the other side of the ball. You know, it's

387
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:39,320
Speaker 4: not like, by the way, another thing that's warysome Bengals

388
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 4: dead last in the NFL and rushing yards given up

389
00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:45,400
Speaker 4: per game at one fifty seven point nine. Those two

390
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:48,520
Speaker 4: things don't bode well for the matchup on Sunday. But

391
00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:50,880
Speaker 4: this Dolphins team Austin is twenty seventh in the league.

392
00:21:51,320 --> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 4: They give up one hundred and thirty six on the

393
00:21:53,520 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 4: ground per game, so there are some openings. One would

394
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:01,600
Speaker 4: think when it comes to the Miami Dolphins and their

395
00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,879
Speaker 4: defense that maybe will exploit the use of Chase Brown

396
00:22:04,920 --> 00:22:07,960
Speaker 4: or some ajp Ryn with the Bengals offense. Again, this

397
00:22:08,040 --> 00:22:10,879
Speaker 4: is just a loose look at this matchup as this

398
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:14,640
Speaker 4: news comes down about the Dolphins benching Tua. But it's

399
00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,840
Speaker 4: a team in Miami that's susceptible to the run game,

400
00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 4: and it's a team in Miami that's gonna rely heavily

401
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 4: on their run game on Sunday as well.

402
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 3: I think when you picture this game, I think you

403
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:25,400
Speaker 3: kind of got to go back to the Bengals Thanksgiving

404
00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,399
Speaker 3: night game against Baltimore. I think it's kind of a

405
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:31,520
Speaker 3: similar matchup and the Bengals have to get back to

406
00:22:31,760 --> 00:22:35,879
Speaker 3: that as the way that they play now. Obviously, Burrow

407
00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:37,959
Speaker 3: through the ball too many times in the first half,

408
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,200
Speaker 3: but they controlled the clock, They were efficient, They were

409
00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,760
Speaker 3: effective on early downs, especially running the football. They were

410
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,840
Speaker 3: able to go under center, play action, move the pocket,

411
00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:51,679
Speaker 3: easy completions, not asking Burrow to do a ton of

412
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 3: stuff at the line of scrimmage, not asking the offensive

413
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,320
Speaker 3: line to do a ton of stuff at the line

414
00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:57,560
Speaker 3: of scrimmage. That's the type of game plan that I

415
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 3: think they have to get back to if they want

416
00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 3: to be successful against the Miami Dolphins.

417
00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:07,760
Speaker 4: It it should be a fascinating matchup for many reasons.

418
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:10,919
Speaker 4: We'll look ahead to the rest of the NFL weekend Ahead.

00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:35,680

00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,840
Speaker 3: thing until I just saw a tweet. Now I have

449
00:24:55,920 --> 00:25:00,800
Speaker 3: to look up the Columbus Aviators. Yeah, they have five

450

Speaker 3: think Matt Free Stadium, but introducing like okay, so this

453
00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:15,719
Speaker 3: is the twenty twenty six years their first year, I

454
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:20,399
Speaker 3: guess Okay, didn't they move a bunch of teams because

455
00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 3: like last year was like the Michigan Panthers or whatever.

456
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 3: We're in the finals, and then they just like moved

457
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 3: their team somewhere else. I guess. I don't know. I

458
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,679
Speaker 3: don't know much. I love football is as much as

459
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,520
Speaker 3: anybody on planet Earth, ir truthfully do. Yeah. I do

460
00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,960
Speaker 3: not care about these leagues at all.

461
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 4: So you got the Birmingham Stallions, Yeah, of course, the Aviators, Yeah, sure,

462
00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:46,240
Speaker 4: the Dallas Renegades, the DC Defenders, the Houston Gamblers.

463
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 3: I did see that Bob Stoop stepped down. He's officially retired.

464
00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:51,879
Speaker 3: He was the coach of the Renegades. I think, what

465
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 3: about the Louisville Kings. That's got to be a new one. Yeah.

466
00:25:55,960 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 4: I thought I saw something from Eric Wood at a

467
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:02,880
Speaker 4: at like a Louisville King's announcement.

468
00:26:03,240 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 3: Probably he lives in Louisville, so okay, maybe he's a

469
00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 3: part of this. Could be okay regardless. I saw Nick

470
00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:14,200
Speaker 3: Saban bought a share of the Nashville Predators. Hey, wow,

471
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,880
Speaker 3: what are we doing? A lot going on, a lot

472
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,680
Speaker 3: of going on that I didn't even know about. There

473
00:26:20,760 --> 00:26:24,560
Speaker 3: really is like an entirely different world out there, entirely

474
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:29,240
Speaker 3: different America. I did see whoever Eric Wood was talking

475
00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 3: about he said, you know, for home games, they'll come

476
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:33,119
Speaker 3: in the night before and they'll do a bunch of

477
00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:35,680
Speaker 3: community service. Oh that's cool, So get out in the

478
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,399
Speaker 3: community as well. So I will say this, Louisville built

479
00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:44,480
Speaker 3: a soccer stadium for their NWSL team. That is awesome. Okay,

480
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:47,000
Speaker 3: it's a really cool stadium. I'm assuming that's where they'll

481
00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:50,080
Speaker 3: be playing these games at. But if you've ever been

482
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:52,880
Speaker 3: to Louisville and you're like driving into downtown, that stadium

483
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:57,320
Speaker 3: is sick. Okay, so check it out, all right, or

484
00:26:57,400 --> 00:27:00,000
Speaker 3: don't you do whatever you want? Good to know UFL

485
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:04,320
Speaker 3: still alive and kicking. Baby. Let's take a couple of

486
00:27:04,320 --> 00:27:05,880
Speaker 3: phone calls. What's up, John?

487
00:27:07,160 --> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 7: The UFL is alive and well.

488
00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 3: And I'm so excited I can tell. I think a

489
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,240
Speaker 3: lot of people feel the same.

490
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:15,920
Speaker 7: That's awesome, isn't it.

491
00:27:16,200 --> 00:27:16,480
Speaker 5: Wow.

492
00:27:16,960 --> 00:27:19,200
Speaker 7: I want to go to Louisville to see the stadium, actually,

493
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,400
Speaker 7: because our stadiums around here are horrible. I mean, anytime

494
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:24,280
Speaker 7: we have to build a stadium in the Boston area,

495
00:27:24,280 --> 00:27:28,119
Speaker 7: it takes like eleven years to do it. Actually, we

496
00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 7: were going to bid on the twenty twenty sixth Summer

497
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,720
Speaker 7: Olympic games and people got all bent out of shape

498
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:35,600
Speaker 7: because they were worrying about snow and out to remind

499
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,600
Speaker 7: people it doesn't snow in July, but you know, hopefully not. Yeah,

500
00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,840
Speaker 7: this is a place where you go to go where

501
00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,440
Speaker 7: you don't want to do anything. This is like the

502
00:27:43,840 --> 00:27:47,440
Speaker 7: place that says no. But looking forward to the Sunday's game,

503
00:27:47,680 --> 00:27:49,560
Speaker 7: a few things I just want to see and it's

504
00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:54,160
Speaker 7: mostly about the quarterback because everything else comes secondary to him.

505
00:27:54,640 --> 00:27:57,119
Speaker 7: And you know, the press conference last week is demeanor

506
00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 7: on the field last Sunday really so a lot of

507
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 7: character for him that, you know, I want to see

508
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 7: him being back to being himself, whether it be the

509
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:09,240
Speaker 7: press conference today, the game on Sunday, Just be more

510
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 7: of himself and be the leader of the team, because Sony,

511
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,119
Speaker 7: you quarterback to the University of Cincinnati for many years.

512
00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,480
Speaker 7: When the quarterback walks into the building and he's in

513
00:28:17,520 --> 00:28:20,840
Speaker 7: a dour mood and looks like he's pissed off about something,

514
00:28:20,920 --> 00:28:23,320
Speaker 7: I think that permeates the entire team if I'm reading

515
00:28:23,320 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 7: it right.

516
00:28:24,000 --> 00:28:26,199
Speaker 3: Yeah, Like things start and stop with him.

517
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,000
Speaker 4: And that's why I think him coming back with such

518
00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,160
Speaker 4: a boost for the team, because man, here's here's our guy,

519
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:31,920
Speaker 4: here's Joe Burrow.

520
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,120
Speaker 3: Now there's hope restored.

521
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 4: If Joe Burrow is dragging and Joe Burrow is struggling,

522
00:28:37,400 --> 00:28:39,120
Speaker 4: that's going to permeate through the rest of the locker

523
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 4: room as well, just like it would on the other

524
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,520
Speaker 4: side of it.

525
00:28:42,600 --> 00:28:45,760
Speaker 7: So that question and I kind of overanalyze these things too.

526
00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,360
Speaker 7: It seems like he's a different person since the break

527
00:28:48,400 --> 00:28:52,760
Speaker 7: in last year, that that really affected him, as it should.

528
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 7: I mean, your home is being violated as you're on

529
00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,440
Speaker 7: the road playing a football game. It seems like that

530
00:28:57,600 --> 00:29:01,200
Speaker 7: really really bothered him the point where it kind of

531
00:29:01,240 --> 00:29:04,040
Speaker 7: soured him on the whole experience that like, I'm you know,

532
00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 7: here playing I'm good in the community and some crazy

533
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 7: people break into my house. It seems like he's become

534
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:13,440
Speaker 7: a little bit more defensive and kind of insular from

535
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,719
Speaker 7: from that episode. I don't know, maybe I'm reading too

536
00:29:15,760 --> 00:29:16,360
Speaker 7: much into it.

537
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,400
Speaker 4: Without a doubt, Without a doubt, it just again and

538
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 4: today it could be back to business as usual for Joe,

539
00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:26,480
Speaker 4: And I think if so, you look at that and

540
00:29:26,520 --> 00:29:29,320
Speaker 4: then if he bounces back on Sunday, okay, let's move forward.

541
00:29:29,880 --> 00:29:32,240
Speaker 4: If you get any type of Joe that we saw

542
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 4: last week. I think it would be cause for a

543
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 4: little more concern.

544
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, without question, because I don't want to see him

545
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,040
Speaker 7: turn into Jay Kupler. I mean, it was starting to

546
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:42,960
Speaker 7: look like Jake Kettler on the field, where he was

547
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:44,960
Speaker 7: just kind of going through the motions, and the press

548
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,560
Speaker 7: conference was kind of just like, you know, the world

549
00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:48,080
Speaker 7: is ending.

550
00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:49,960
Speaker 3: I think it's maybe he's just.

551
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:52,320
Speaker 7: Going through a really, really tough spell, and you know,

552
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 7: the losing starts to beat him up.

553
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:55,640
Speaker 3: Because there's a guy who won a.

554
00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:58,720
Speaker 7: National championship in college, a Heisman Trophy first three years

555
00:29:58,720 --> 00:30:02,360
Speaker 7: here from a turning the franchise around, and the injuries

556
00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:04,840
Speaker 7: add up and the losing adds up. But he's got

557
00:30:04,880 --> 00:30:07,240
Speaker 7: to be the guy and he's often talked about it he's.

558
00:30:07,040 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 3: The guy that can turn it around. And I still

559
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 3: have faith that he will do that for sure, for sure.

560
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,960
Speaker 4: And that's the thing. We've seen him have bad games

561
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:18,120
Speaker 4: before and then immediately he turns it around and he's

562
00:30:18,160 --> 00:30:22,200
Speaker 4: back to what we envisioned Joe Burrow. Bean, I just

563
00:30:22,200 --> 00:30:24,400
Speaker 4: think when you looked at the mental airs he made,

564
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:28,960
Speaker 4: that's not normal Joe Burrow behavior. So that to me

565
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,000
Speaker 4: is what I want to watch. Can he clean up

566
00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:35,160
Speaker 4: the protection checks, the things that he missed which are

567
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,120
Speaker 4: just again so uncharacteristic for him, And then I think

568
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 4: you feel better about where he's at without question.

569
00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,160
Speaker 7: I mean, even like the sack on third down that

570
00:30:43,200 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 7: took them out of field goal range, the pick six

571
00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:47,040
Speaker 7: that looks like he just kind of gave up on it.

572
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,800
Speaker 7: I didn't want him chasing the depender downs. I mean,

573
00:30:49,800 --> 00:30:51,680
Speaker 7: I have a rule, actually you probably would like this

574
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:54,520
Speaker 7: Tony being a quarterback. If my quarterback throws an interception,

575
00:30:54,880 --> 00:30:57,400
Speaker 7: one of the interior alignment is to grab him, put

576
00:30:57,480 --> 00:30:59,400
Speaker 7: him in a bear hug, make sure he goes nowhere

577
00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,600
Speaker 7: near attack fling anybody, because we don't want to lose

578
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:04,760
Speaker 7: a quarterback over something like that. They love them to

579
00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 7: have a pick six that they need be just make

580
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 7: sure the quarterback's upright after that time.

581
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 3: But I'm good with that, especially playing it out down

582
00:31:10,920 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 3: the stretch now.

583
00:31:12,480 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 7: Absolutely, oh even more so now. But fellas, have a

584
00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:18,240
Speaker 7: great day. I'm sure we'll speak to you before Christmas and

585
00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:18,720
Speaker 7: not again.

586
00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,040
Speaker 3: Thanks for the time, John, Thanks lot Man. We appreciate you.

587
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:23,000
Speaker 5: Mike.

588
00:31:23,120 --> 00:31:23,760
Speaker 3: What's going on?

589
00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:31,520
Speaker 8: Hey, Merry Christmas, bro Merry Christmas. All right, heard, Well,

590
00:31:31,560 --> 00:31:33,560
Speaker 8: first of all, I'm going to really go out on

591
00:31:33,560 --> 00:31:37,080
Speaker 8: the limb and make my Super Bowl tradiction the Rams

592
00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,160
Speaker 8: and the Broncos. Boy, I'm really really walking you are.

593
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:42,920
Speaker 3: You are?

594
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 9: Wow? Barring any catastrophic injuries, which we know can happen

595
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 9: in a flash, sure Fulton can change, but the Broncos

596
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:53,760
Speaker 9: are clearly the best team in the year.

597
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:54,200
Speaker 5: See.

598
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's weird.

599
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 4: It feels like people keep waiting for them to fall back,

600
00:31:57,800 --> 00:32:00,840
Speaker 4: and they were underdogs at home again last week, and

601
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:04,560
Speaker 4: it's just fine. They've they've not done it yet, and

602
00:32:04,600 --> 00:32:07,800
Speaker 4: I think people just keep waiting, but they're not They're

603
00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:11,440
Speaker 4: not blinking right now, They're not showing any signs that

604
00:32:11,440 --> 00:32:13,840
Speaker 4: that that they're going to go in the other direction.

605
00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:15,360
Speaker 4: And at this point, I think you got to kind

606
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,360
Speaker 4: of take it for what it's worth.

607
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:16,440
Speaker 5: It.

608
00:32:16,520 --> 00:32:19,320
Speaker 4: They are a legitimate contender, especially the way bo Nicks

609
00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 4: played against that Green Bay defense.

610
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 9: Yeah, and you know, as well as anybody Tony, the

611
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,280
Speaker 9: more he plays, the better he's gonna get. And he's

612
00:32:26,280 --> 00:32:26,600
Speaker 9: got a.

613
00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 3: Great tutor, right Yep, without a doubt, docre.

614
00:32:30,280 --> 00:32:34,719
Speaker 9: So that was my take a walk on the lobside prediction.

615
00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,600
Speaker 9: I heard an interesting interview with Robert Griffin and Steve

616
00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 9: Young this morning, and they were both really concerned with

617
00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 9: Joe's body language, what he had to say. They you know,

618
00:32:47,160 --> 00:32:50,240
Speaker 9: everybody loves in his talent to death and as a person,

619
00:32:50,320 --> 00:32:53,480
Speaker 9: but they did not, neither one of them. And you

620
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:57,480
Speaker 9: got two guys that are quite a difference in age,

621
00:32:58,240 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 9: and they didn't feel good about what's happening. So I

622
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:04,680
Speaker 9: just want to throw that in there. They didn't predict anything.

623
00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 9: They just said, this is cause for concerns.

624
00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 10: Yeah.

625
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,800
Speaker 4: Now, that's why I think today is so interesting. In

626
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:13,760
Speaker 4: Sunday is so interesting because if it carries over to

627
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,040
Speaker 4: another press conference, and then that carries over to another

628
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 4: poor game, then I think everyone shares that sentiment. Right now,

629
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:23,520
Speaker 4: I think people are said, Okay, he had an off game,

630
00:33:23,880 --> 00:33:25,520
Speaker 4: maybe it was an off week. A lot of stuff

631
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:27,560
Speaker 4: could happen in someone's life and you don't want to

632
00:33:27,560 --> 00:33:31,120
Speaker 4: dig too far into it. If it continues, then I

633
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 4: think it certainly becomes an issue.

634
00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:37,160
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, you can't help but think it then, right,

635
00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 9: I mean, you don't have to be a football fan.

636
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:39,640
Speaker 5: To figure that out.

637
00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:45,160
Speaker 9: Which is correcting basic psychology. This Creg Greg Stamon, guy

638
00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:47,600
Speaker 9: that got the San Diego job. I saw his interview.

639
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:50,719
Speaker 9: Big guy was in tears. He was so happy to

640
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 9: be the manager of the Padres and his family and

641
00:33:55,560 --> 00:33:58,240
Speaker 9: he is they love Southern California blah blah blah blah blah.

642
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:00,440
Speaker 9: But I don't see him coming up of the Reds

643
00:34:00,440 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 9: any time to soon. I don't think that's gonna happen.

644
00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 9: Why would you move from San Diego? Right, Yeah, I

645
00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:08,799
Speaker 9: don't know. I don't know why you did it. And

646
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:12,719
Speaker 9: Caleb Ferguson, well, i'll tell you what. I tried so

647
00:34:12,880 --> 00:34:15,480
Speaker 9: hard to look Caleb Ferguson because he's kind of a

648
00:34:15,520 --> 00:34:18,200
Speaker 9: menacing figure on the mount. He's a big, sick dude.

649
00:34:18,880 --> 00:34:21,640
Speaker 9: He's a tough looking guy. He's a left hander, so

650
00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:25,839
Speaker 9: he got to love him. But in his stats over

651
00:34:25,880 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 9: his career are pretty good. But here's where he faltered

652
00:34:28,680 --> 00:34:31,520
Speaker 9: and killed the Dodgers. So many times was given up

653
00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:35,640
Speaker 9: the clutch base hit or the clutch home run, and

654
00:34:35,680 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 9: that is what that's why the Dodgers finally ranning.

655
00:34:39,480 --> 00:34:41,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh.

656
00:34:41,480 --> 00:34:44,439
Speaker 4: He didn't pitch obviously well in the postseason last year

657
00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,680
Speaker 4: for the Mariners, but he is a matchup guy. I

658
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 4: think left handed believers in Major League Baseball are are

659
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:52,760
Speaker 4: very important if you want to have any legitimate shot

660
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:56,560
Speaker 4: at at moving on. But I do think they're you know,

661
00:34:56,760 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 4: it's it's unfortunately the type of moves that this organization

662
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:02,719
Speaker 4: and has made as of late that that fulfill a

663
00:35:02,800 --> 00:35:05,560
Speaker 4: need but also don't bring much excitement with it as well.

664
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,239
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean, we're not going to pack the joint

665
00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,160
Speaker 9: because Caleb Burg, because ninety nine percent of the Reds

666
00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:14,000
Speaker 9: fans have never heard of the guy. Hey, Tony, have

667
00:35:14,080 --> 00:35:16,560
Speaker 9: you ever thought of Are all your kids right handed?

668
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:17,960
Speaker 3: Uh?

669
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:21,920
Speaker 4: My older two are? My youngest looks like he's going

670
00:35:22,000 --> 00:35:23,040
Speaker 4: to be a lefty right now?

671
00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:24,879
Speaker 9: There you go.

672
00:35:25,080 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 3: I know it. I'm counting on him. I'm counting on him.

673
00:35:28,200 --> 00:35:28,680
Speaker 5: Mike Kid.

674
00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,960
Speaker 9: My dad was ambidexterrous. He really was. It was incredible.

675
00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:37,160
Speaker 9: My dad could do everything with both hands and it

676
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,080
Speaker 9: was really freaky. And he tried like hell to make

677
00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 9: me into a left hander or at that time, like

678
00:35:42,440 --> 00:35:44,839
Speaker 9: a switch hitter in baseball. Yeah, and actually I got

679
00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:46,920
Speaker 9: even though on the natural right hander, I got pretty

680
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:48,880
Speaker 9: good at it just by practicing it, but it was

681
00:35:48,960 --> 00:35:51,680
Speaker 9: never quite the same. But it just seems not in

682
00:35:51,719 --> 00:35:54,520
Speaker 9: football so much, but boy, in baseball, if you're left handed,

683
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:56,960
Speaker 9: even if you're a hitter, they just have a prettier swing.

684
00:35:57,080 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 9: All that stuff, right, And as a pitcher, it's guaranteed

685
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:00,839
Speaker 9: money for the rest of your life.

686
00:36:00,920 --> 00:36:04,040
Speaker 4: Yep, that's it. We're counting on him. I'm putting a

687
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:05,760
Speaker 4: lot of trust in him.

688
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:10,879
Speaker 9: So tie those arms behind them, behind their waist. I'll

689
00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:11,480
Speaker 9: see you guys.

690
00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thanks Mikevin Goodwin. All right, let's finish up

Speaker 4: We've got Zach Taylor coming up in a couple of minutes.

699
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:52,480
Speaker 3: I'm fired up. Zach Taylor is.

700
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,000
Speaker 4: Going to speak to the media about this upcoming game

701
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 4: against the Miami Dolphins. Put an over under on the

702
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:01,440
Speaker 4: time for me. What do you think think Zach's been

703
00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,600
Speaker 4: pretty brief the last couple of weeks. Yeah, I'm gonna

704
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,919
Speaker 4: say eleven minutes, there's less football to talk about. There's

705
00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:09,640
Speaker 4: really a lot less to talk about.

706
00:37:09,719 --> 00:37:13,840
Speaker 3: Now. We'll talk about Shamar Stewart, talk about T Higgins,

707
00:37:14,600 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 3: talk about Joe Burrow, talk about the Dolphins, to a

708
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 3: talk of aloa Quin Owers.

709
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:26,040
Speaker 4: What else gets brought up? What's a question you would

710
00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:29,480
Speaker 4: ask today if you were down there? What's on your mind?

711
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 3: Hmm?

712
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:35,960
Speaker 4: I know it's not the most pressing one. I would

713
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 4: ask what the idea is at running back down the stretch?

714
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:43,360
Speaker 4: Because some I J p Ryn is either getting similar

715
00:37:43,680 --> 00:37:46,040
Speaker 4: carries or maybe even more carries than Chase Brown. I

716
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 4: want to know what the plan is at running back.

717
00:37:48,560 --> 00:37:53,239
Speaker 3: Yeah, I guess that's a mildly interesting part of it.

718
00:37:55,040 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 3: I think he'll be asked about his contract extension. Oh,

719
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,240
Speaker 3: that's a good one. I'm sure he'll be asked about that.

720
00:38:01,239 --> 00:38:08,680
Speaker 3: That's a good one. What are you asking him today?

721
00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:16,280
Speaker 3: I don't know, Like, have you guys changed anything?

722
00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:18,480
Speaker 5: You know?

723
00:38:18,840 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 3: Oh, Joe Burrow? I don't know, like is there going

724
00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 3: to be a different plan in place? Does the game

725
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 3: plan change now that you're eliminated? Are you going to

726
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:30,880
Speaker 3: try to protect Joe a little bit more? I know

727
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,320
Speaker 3: all the answers to those questions, though, I think this

728
00:38:33,480 --> 00:38:35,319
Speaker 3: is why it would be hard for me to come

729
00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:36,759
Speaker 3: up just off the top of my head.

730
00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:39,120
Speaker 4: No, but I think there's something there that people would

731
00:38:39,120 --> 00:38:41,359
Speaker 4: want to know, Like, now that you are eliminated, does

732
00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:46,279
Speaker 4: the preparation change, does the personnel groupings change? Do your

733
00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,279
Speaker 4: substitutions change? Are you willing to give other guys more

734
00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:49,919
Speaker 4: looks now?

735
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 3: I think a good question based off like the running

736
00:38:52,800 --> 00:38:55,480
Speaker 3: back conversation is is TODs Brooks going to get more

737
00:38:55,520 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 3: looks now? Soman?

738
00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:57,400
Speaker 11: J P.

739
00:38:57,560 --> 00:38:59,600
Speaker 3: Ryan's under contract for next year as well, He's going

740
00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 3: to be here. Chase Brown's going to be here, Which

741
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:05,160
Speaker 3: is why I've already seen some stupid people posting about

742
00:39:05,440 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 3: the Bengals drafting Jeremiah Love, which you want to talk

743
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 3: about a crash out, I would have a crash out

744
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:15,279
Speaker 3: of all crashouts running back Jeremiah Love in the first round.

745
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:18,640
Speaker 3: The running back room is kind of set, but I

746
00:39:18,960 --> 00:39:21,400
Speaker 3: wouldn't mind taking a look at TODs Brooks just to

747
00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,200
Speaker 3: see what he's got. Are we going to see more

748
00:39:24,239 --> 00:39:26,520
Speaker 3: of that type of thing in the second half? And

749
00:39:26,600 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 3: you know they drafted or didn't draft, but they claimed

750
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 3: on waivers yesterday Keishawn Williams from the Pittsburgh Steelers. He's

751
00:39:33,080 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 3: a return specialist, which would suggest that Charlie Jones is

752
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:39,120
Speaker 3: probably gonna miss some time. What what's the severity of

753
00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 3: that injury and that whole thing.

754
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:45,080
Speaker 4: Outside of Trey Hendrickson on the defensive side of the ball.

755
00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,160
Speaker 4: What do you think the most intriguing or pressing question

756
00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:51,759
Speaker 4: is that they'll have to answer in the offseason. Is

757
00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:56,480
Speaker 4: it Josephosai like like I mean, like on the roster

758
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:59,640
Speaker 4: right now, not free agents, not the draft, like players

759
00:39:59,640 --> 00:40:02,160
Speaker 4: that are on this roster. You would have to make

760
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:03,560
Speaker 4: a decision on Joseph Osai.

761
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, I would say that's probably the most pressing.

762
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,360
Speaker 4: Because I would wonder then, like down the stretch, so

763
00:40:09,400 --> 00:40:12,680
Speaker 4: you've got three games remaining and wins are low. I

764
00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:15,799
Speaker 4: know you want to win, but it's not going to

765
00:40:15,840 --> 00:40:17,799
Speaker 4: do anything for you. I would I would get to

766
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:21,239
Speaker 4: Al Golden hopefully Duke Tobin. I'd say, Okay, what do

767
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:23,359
Speaker 4: we need to see from Joseph Osai in these last

768
00:40:23,400 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 4: three weeks that either make us want to invest in

769
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:28,960
Speaker 4: him or be okay moving on with him?

770
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:29,239
Speaker 5: You know?

771
00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:31,799
Speaker 4: Is that can we see him dropping the coverage more

772
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:34,399
Speaker 4: Can we see him on some stunts some more? Can

773
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,640
Speaker 4: we line him up inside like I would want to

774
00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:38,879
Speaker 4: do as much with Joseph Osai over the next three

775
00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:41,160
Speaker 4: weeks to really gauge like, Okay, this is what we

776
00:40:41,239 --> 00:40:43,760
Speaker 4: have or what we don't have with him?

777
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:46,319
Speaker 3: You know, don't don't keep it basic. He's on a

778
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,640
Speaker 3: one year deal worth a total of six and a

779
00:40:48,680 --> 00:40:51,200
Speaker 3: half million dollars right now. Mm hmm. I think he's

780
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:54,640
Speaker 3: probably outplayed that sure on the open market. I would.

781
00:40:54,800 --> 00:40:58,040
Speaker 3: I would guess he'll get at least ten Are you

782
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:01,440
Speaker 3: willing to give? That's what that see? Like that to me,

783
00:41:01,520 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 3: I don't have the answer right now, and his agent

784
00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:05,719
Speaker 3: is David Mulligana, so I would have to see more

785
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:08,200
Speaker 3: down the stretch. Because the honest part about this, you're

786
00:41:08,320 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 3: you're saying right now, he's not reached that point for you.

787
00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 3: I don't think so.

788
00:41:12,239 --> 00:41:15,239
Speaker 4: But the interesting thing about this for me, Austin is

789
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:18,160
Speaker 4: if it's not him, then who in the world is it?

790
00:41:18,880 --> 00:41:19,080
Speaker 3: Right?

791
00:41:20,120 --> 00:41:22,000
Speaker 4: I don't have anything to go on, and that's why

792
00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:23,879
Speaker 4: I think it is important that to get to see

793
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 4: Shamar Stewart this year, because if not, I don't know

794
00:41:27,560 --> 00:41:30,440
Speaker 4: what they have there. And as good as Miles Murphy's

795
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,680
Speaker 4: been Austin. You remember down the stretch last year, Miles

796
00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:35,960
Speaker 4: Murphy was pretty good. Why does it take Miles Murphy

797
00:41:36,480 --> 00:41:38,200
Speaker 4: half or more than half of the season to start

798
00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 4: playing better. Yeah, Like, I think these are all valid,

799
00:41:43,080 --> 00:41:46,160
Speaker 4: but I feel like I know what they have in

800
00:41:46,400 --> 00:41:50,239
Speaker 4: the second area or don't have. They're not gonna make

801
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:52,560
Speaker 4: any startling moves at linebacker because they just drafted both

802
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,600
Speaker 4: of them. They're gonna They're gonna give them another chance.

803
00:41:55,000 --> 00:41:57,880
Speaker 3: It's also not like there's a ton of free agent

804
00:41:57,960 --> 00:42:02,279
Speaker 3: defensive linemen available next year. Sure, so Hendrickson is the time,

805
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:08,320
Speaker 3: Matthew Judon, Khalil Mack, Hassan Reddick, Joey Bosa, Malcolm Kountz,

806
00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:12,440
Speaker 3: Daniko Audrey, Leonard Floyd. Those guys all made ten million

807
00:42:12,520 --> 00:42:15,680
Speaker 3: or more. Yeah, you've got Yeter gross Matos, who I

808
00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:19,120
Speaker 3: just for his name alone. I would love Draymont Jones

809
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 3: from Baltimore. I wouldn't mind that Samson Abucham from Indianapolis,

810
00:42:24,160 --> 00:42:28,480
Speaker 3: Arden Key, Osai Fowler, aj Epenes. These are all the

811
00:42:28,560 --> 00:42:32,920
Speaker 3: edge rushers. Yeah, that's not like a deep group of guys.

812
00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 3: So just looking at this list makes me feel like, Okay,

813
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 3: Miles Murphy and Joseph Osai are probably going to get

814
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:44,239
Speaker 3: brought back ad In Shamar Stewart add in probably a

815
00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:48,200
Speaker 3: draft pick me and that's what you probably two draft

816
00:42:48,200 --> 00:42:50,440
Speaker 3: picks and maybe one of those guys. You know, there

817
00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:54,360
Speaker 3: are other guys out there, you know. O dafe O

818
00:42:54,520 --> 00:43:00,400
Speaker 3: Way I think is interesting. So it's it's it's just

819
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:04,520
Speaker 3: it's hard. Right Like if I look right now, Flacco

820
00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,160
Speaker 3: is going to be a free agent, Dalton Reisner is

821
00:43:07,160 --> 00:43:11,720
Speaker 3: going to be a free agent, Trey Hendrickson, Joseph Osai,

822
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,200
Speaker 3: Geno Stone, You're going back in on Genostone. No, I'm

823
00:43:15,200 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 3: good with that, Noah Fan, Lucas, Patrick, Cam Taylor, Britt,

824
00:43:21,640 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 3: Tanner Hudson. I mean, these are the types of These

825
00:43:24,400 --> 00:43:26,400
Speaker 3: are the guys you're going to be making decisions on.

826
00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:28,480
Speaker 3: I don't think there's many hard decisions to make. Cam

827
00:43:28,560 --> 00:43:31,839
Speaker 3: Taylor Britt with making. I mean, his market value right

828
00:43:31,840 --> 00:43:33,880
Speaker 3: now is fifteen million. I'm not giving that to Cam

829
00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:38,239
Speaker 3: Taylor Britt. You know I'm not going to give right

830
00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,600
Speaker 3: now market value on sport track dot Com for Joseph

831
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:46,400
Speaker 3: Osaiah is fifteen million. I don't think I'm there. You

832
00:43:46,440 --> 00:43:49,120
Speaker 3: know market value on genostone is seven point eight million.

833
00:43:49,160 --> 00:43:53,840
Speaker 3: I'm definitely not there, so there are decisions that have

834
00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:56,520
Speaker 3: to be made down the stretch. But like I said Austin,

835
00:43:56,560 --> 00:43:59,920
Speaker 3: over these next three I give Osai as many responsible

836
00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:01,839
Speaker 3: he's as possible, and see what you have or don't

837
00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,160
Speaker 3: have before you just blatantly move on from them, and

838
00:44:05,200 --> 00:44:07,080
Speaker 3: you can make that argument with other players as well.

839
00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,040
Speaker 3: But I do think that is important down the stretch.

840
00:44:10,080 --> 00:44:13,160
Speaker 3: We'll take a break that Zach Taylor press conference comes

841

00:45:14,440 --> 00:45:15,120
Speaker 13: We start with it.

862
00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:17,880
Speaker 14: Yesterday there was a report that your contract with the

863
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:21,080
Speaker 14: Bengals goes through twenty twenty seven. Can you confirm if

864
00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 14: that's true, and if so, the organization decided not to

865
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:27,560
Speaker 14: announce it. Do you know why the team decided not

866
00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:29,280
Speaker 14: to announce it a year after they announced.

867
00:45:29,560 --> 00:45:31,520
Speaker 10: I don't think it wont matters. I coach every day

868
00:45:31,560 --> 00:45:34,120
Speaker 10: like it's my last and I've been through years in

869
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,520
Speaker 10: twenty nineteen, twenty twenty that were literally you coach every

870
00:45:37,520 --> 00:45:40,000
Speaker 10: game thinking it could be your last game. And I've

871
00:45:40,040 --> 00:45:42,560
Speaker 10: seen how we responded after that twenty one twenty two,

872
00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,160
Speaker 10: competing for division titles and championships, and so this year

873
00:45:46,239 --> 00:45:49,160
Speaker 10: is no different from me. It's going through adversity coaching

874
00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 10: every game in this profession like it could be your

875
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,480
Speaker 10: last one. I have a lot of confidence in our

876
00:45:54,520 --> 00:45:56,279
Speaker 10: staff that we're going to get this turned around, and

877
00:45:56,320 --> 00:45:58,520
Speaker 10: we're going to finish the season really strong and put

878
00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:01,160
Speaker 10: together a great plan to get back to those championships

879
00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:04,319
Speaker 10: I mentioned. I'm very confident that we can do all that.

880
00:46:05,000 --> 00:46:05,200
Speaker 5: It is.

881
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,319
Speaker 10: I'm not gonna respond to that. I just told you.

882
00:46:08,360 --> 00:46:10,160
Speaker 10: I coach every day like it's my last one.

883
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:12,759
Speaker 15: But you don't get a chance to talk to ownership

884
00:46:12,920 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 15: or do we don't get that opportunity.

885
00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:17,839
Speaker 10: What kind of assurances have you been given? From how

886
00:46:18,080 --> 00:46:20,640
Speaker 10: we just talk every week every week you've talked about

887
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,200
Speaker 10: your contractor every week we talk about everything. When was

888
00:46:24,239 --> 00:46:27,279
Speaker 10: the last time you spoke about your contract? And that's

889
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:29,759
Speaker 10: not really part of our conversation. It's every week. We're

890
00:46:29,760 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 10: just trying to create together a great plan to win

891
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,600
Speaker 10: football games and make sure our team's ready to go,

892
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:37,279
Speaker 10: make sure I'm ready to go. So I know that's

893
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,600
Speaker 10: of curiosity to you guys, but we're just focused on

894
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:40,200
Speaker 10: being the Dolphins.

895
00:46:40,200 --> 00:46:43,600
Speaker 15: It's fair to say that's reassessed after the season every year,

896
00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,120
Speaker 15: you know, ask them, ask them, Yeah, we don't get

897
00:46:47,120 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 15: that chance.

898
00:46:47,600 --> 00:46:52,239
Speaker 10: Okay, Well I'm sorry, Okay, I'm just being straightforward with that.

899
00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 3: We would ask them, Oh, we don't get that.

900
00:46:54,719 --> 00:47:00,600
Speaker 10: Okay, seem going through protocol. Yeah, he's still going through partle. Yeah,

901
00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:02,919
Speaker 10: he'll be same as last week. He'll go through practice day,

902
00:47:03,200 --> 00:47:06,000
Speaker 10: went through the walkthrough, but again protocol, So I'm not

903
00:47:06,040 --> 00:47:07,680
Speaker 10: gonna make any guess his own word ends up.

904
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:09,200
Speaker 3: Is anyone else out this week?

905
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:12,279
Speaker 10: Chris Jenkins will be out for sure. There's some other

906
00:47:12,320 --> 00:47:13,960
Speaker 10: guys will work through the next couple of days, some

907
00:47:14,000 --> 00:47:16,880
Speaker 10: of the ones we talked about the other day, but

908
00:47:17,000 --> 00:47:18,680
Speaker 10: don't want to make any prediction on where they end up,

909
00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,120
Speaker 10: but Chris will be the one that's out for sure.

910
00:47:20,480 --> 00:47:23,799
Speaker 10: Marius looks pretty good. So again, once we get on

911
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,439
Speaker 10: the field, we'll assess this guy's better. But I felt

912
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:30,279
Speaker 10: really good about Marius coming out of yesterday getting back

913
00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:30,759
Speaker 10: in the game.

914
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:33,960
Speaker 16: At some points we didn't see traders a time.

915
00:47:34,000 --> 00:47:37,520
Speaker 10: I mean, what was that like. Honestly don't remember even

916
00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:41,880
Speaker 10: at what point it happened as we see now, so

917
00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:44,680
Speaker 10: just he was out at that time. It wasn't a

918
00:47:44,680 --> 00:47:47,239
Speaker 10: lot of conversation. We were just trying to go four points.

919
00:47:47,360 --> 00:47:50,239
Speaker 3: There's a confidence that ownership has has shown.

920
00:47:50,080 --> 00:47:50,360
Speaker 5: In You.

921
00:47:51,840 --> 00:47:55,000
Speaker 17: Gave you the peace of mind when you're evaluating young

922
00:47:55,120 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 17: players and trying to rebuild the defense.

923
00:47:58,360 --> 00:47:59,840
Speaker 10: Here's what I try to do every day, make the

924
00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:01,880
Speaker 10: decisions so we can win the game. And a lot

925
00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:03,600
Speaker 10: of that is trying to strengthen your team and your

926
00:48:03,680 --> 00:48:07,000
Speaker 10: roster by giving opportunity guys like that, like we've done

927
00:48:07,040 --> 00:48:11,359
Speaker 10: this season. So I think if you twofold, if you're

928
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:13,040
Speaker 10: going to say, well, I'm going to do things because

929
00:48:13,120 --> 00:48:14,800
Speaker 10: this could know, I want to do what's best for

930
00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,120
Speaker 10: our team and our program to win immediately, win long term.

931
00:48:18,520 --> 00:48:21,479
Speaker 10: And so that's every decision. If if you're worried about

932
00:48:21,600 --> 00:48:23,239
Speaker 10: losing your job and that's how you're going to make

933
00:48:23,239 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 10: your decisions, you're not going to be very effective what

934
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:28,239
Speaker 10: you do. And it's been a disappointing year, and we're

935
00:48:28,280 --> 00:48:29,480
Speaker 10: not going to run from that. I'm not going to

936
00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:31,479
Speaker 10: run from that, and the blame falls at my feet,

937
00:48:31,520 --> 00:48:34,040
Speaker 10: nobody else's Truthfully, I got my hands all over this thing.

938
00:48:35,040 --> 00:48:37,360
Speaker 10: Haven't done a good enough job. I understand that. But

939
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,400
Speaker 10: I also have seen how this staff can respond and

940
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:42,560
Speaker 10: these players can respond because we've been through this before.

941
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,959
Speaker 10: This is very similar to the end of twenty twenty.

942
00:48:45,080 --> 00:48:48,399
Speaker 10: It felt very bleak and it was scourging, and all

943
00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:49,920
Speaker 10: we did was turn around to respond with back to

944
00:48:49,960 --> 00:48:52,280
Speaker 10: back divisional championships, which is rare to do in this division,

945
00:48:52,520 --> 00:48:55,120
Speaker 10: play for conference championships, play for Super Bowls. I feel

946
00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:57,759
Speaker 10: extreme confidence that we know how to do that, we

947
00:48:57,840 --> 00:48:59,919
Speaker 10: know how to get back to that. And that's acause

948
00:49:00,000 --> 00:49:01,200
Speaker 10: exactly what in are said, are mind to.

949
00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:01,880
Speaker 5: Do a big thing?

950
00:49:01,960 --> 00:49:04,560
Speaker 17: You guys did in that offseason after twenty twenty, you

951
00:49:04,640 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 17: go get Trey, you go get multiple agents like that.

952
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,719
Speaker 17: Are you confident in ownership given that Burrows making more

953
00:49:10,800 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 17: jams that they'll.

954
00:49:11,800 --> 00:49:13,440
Speaker 10: Be able to I'm confident that we're going to make

955
00:49:13,440 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 10: the best decisions for the organization. It's I got a

956
00:49:15,680 --> 00:49:19,360
Speaker 10: ton of belief in our coaching staff, our scouting department,

957
00:49:19,680 --> 00:49:22,120
Speaker 10: our ownership that we are very much in alignment with

958
00:49:22,239 --> 00:49:25,440
Speaker 10: every decision we've ever made here. And so again, when

959
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,280
Speaker 10: things haven't been good enough over the course of this season,

960
00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,680
Speaker 10: there's really no one to blame other than me, truthfully,

961
00:49:29,840 --> 00:49:31,800
Speaker 10: and so I know we all play a piece of this,

962
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:33,800
Speaker 10: but I'm the guy to get to sit there and

963
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,760
Speaker 10: talk to the team every single week and present plans

964
00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:39,840
Speaker 10: and make in game decisions. And so frustrating that I

965
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:43,040
Speaker 10: haven't done anything job this year, but a ton of confidence,

966
00:49:43,320 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 10: and maybe it rings hollow to everyone listening, but I

967
00:49:46,160 --> 00:49:47,960
Speaker 10: know that we've been here before and I've seen how

968
00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:49,480
Speaker 10: we can get out the other side. I'm very confident

969
00:49:49,480 --> 00:49:50,160
Speaker 10: we're going to get that done.

970
00:49:50,320 --> 00:49:53,360
Speaker 17: Taken criticism certainly publicly, why do you?

971
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:55,080
Speaker 5: Because I know you believe in them? Why do you?

972
00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:58,319
Speaker 10: Because I've worked side by side with him for seven

973
00:49:58,400 --> 00:50:01,200
Speaker 10: years now and I have a ton of confidence and

974
00:50:01,239 --> 00:50:03,200
Speaker 10: how he sees things and the vision he's got and

975
00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:07,080
Speaker 10: the vision that we have together our scouting. Our scouting

976
00:50:07,120 --> 00:50:09,160
Speaker 10: staff does a great job, and it's it's rare that

977
00:50:09,200 --> 00:50:10,800
Speaker 10: you get a chance to have like a really personal

978
00:50:10,840 --> 00:50:12,880
Speaker 10: relationship with them and see them and be on the

979
00:50:12,920 --> 00:50:15,040
Speaker 10: same page and communicate the way that we do. It's

980
00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:17,920
Speaker 10: not that way everywhere, and so I really like to

981
00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,160
Speaker 10: set up we have and I think it works well

982
00:50:20,239 --> 00:50:22,040
Speaker 10: for us and we'll work really well for us going forward.

983
00:50:24,320 --> 00:50:25,959
Speaker 10: You'd have to ask him he's been He's been great

984
00:50:26,040 --> 00:50:27,320
Speaker 10: so far to my eye. We haven't gotten on the

985
00:50:27,360 --> 00:50:30,000
Speaker 10: field yet. But again, when you guys get that opportunity,

986
00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:34,200
Speaker 10: can ask you anticipate in practice today Joe Burrow, Yes,

987
00:50:34,320 --> 00:50:37,879
Speaker 10: I do have a very minor lib good lock.

988
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:43,920
Speaker 15: Nothing if you're monitoring that closely.

989
00:50:43,719 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 18: Especially now the team out clicking at the roster, it's

990
00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:49,279
Speaker 18: a very high percentage of guys who have never played

991
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:50,080
Speaker 18: in the playoffs here.

992
00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 10: Yeah, how you had to adjust the.

993
00:50:53,320 --> 00:50:56,080
Speaker 18: Way you present the things you teach considering that so

994
00:50:56,160 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 18: many guys just.

995
00:50:56,719 --> 00:50:58,480
Speaker 10: Don't know what that's like. Yeah, but a lot of

996
00:50:58,520 --> 00:51:02,960
Speaker 10: it is we've we've got a rhythm that we think

997
00:51:03,000 --> 00:51:06,799
Speaker 10: serves us well. We're never afraid to modify anything over

998
00:51:06,800 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 10: of course of the week. We do that you do

999
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:10,839
Speaker 10: in on the coaching staff. Who's who's been in those

1000
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:12,759
Speaker 10: games you mentioned, we got a lot of players in

1001
00:51:12,800 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 10: our team that have been in those games. And then again,

1002
00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:17,759
Speaker 10: we feel like we've accumulated a lot of guys that

1003
00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:19,759
Speaker 10: have won, whether it just be at the college level,

1004
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:22,160
Speaker 10: if they're new to our team, and that's that's a

1005
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,480
Speaker 10: big part of it. So again, that hasn't gotteness where

1006
00:51:25,520 --> 00:51:28,319
Speaker 10: we need to be this year, but they're certainly winning

1007
00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,120
Speaker 10: attitude in the locker room and guys understand what the

1008
00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:32,600
Speaker 10: standard looks like and do a good job holding each

1009
00:51:32,600 --> 00:51:33,040
Speaker 10: other through that.

1010
00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:35,080
Speaker 18: Has this been a year where you've kind of felt

1011
00:51:35,480 --> 00:51:36,640
Speaker 18: kind of a story of that year has been the

1012
00:51:36,760 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 18: youth and then you trying to step up and do

1013
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:39,960
Speaker 18: more and go through that process.

1014
00:51:40,040 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 10: Yeah, there's an element of that, and there's always going

1015
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:43,480
Speaker 10: to be years where you find that, you know, where

1016
00:51:43,480 --> 00:51:44,920
Speaker 10: you're trying to balance the best you have on the

1017
00:51:44,960 --> 00:51:47,960
Speaker 10: team and trying to really bring along young players so

1018
00:51:48,120 --> 00:51:50,279
Speaker 10: that they can presently be good players for you and

1019
00:51:50,680 --> 00:51:52,319
Speaker 10: continue to develop and you can be in a good

1020
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:54,480
Speaker 10: spot in the future. So I feel like if you

1021
00:51:54,560 --> 00:51:56,120
Speaker 10: look at all six of the rookies we got, we

1022
00:51:56,400 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 10: put them all out there, and we've got a chance

1023
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,480
Speaker 10: to watch them all play and grow, and I think

1024
00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:02,800
Speaker 10: it's a really exciting class. And I know that we

1025
00:52:02,920 --> 00:52:04,440
Speaker 10: hit on all six of them, and I feel really

1026
00:52:04,480 --> 00:52:07,040
Speaker 10: good about it. And so we'll just we'll just keep building.

1027
00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:09,560
Speaker 19: When the team's out of playoff, contention usually goes to

1028
00:52:09,840 --> 00:52:13,440
Speaker 19: maybe developing younger players and focusing on that instead of

1029
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 19: making But why is that maybe not a consideration for all.

1030
00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:19,960
Speaker 10: We've played all six of our rookies so well in

1031
00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:21,200
Speaker 10: terms of even just further.

1032
00:52:21,080 --> 00:52:25,520
Speaker 19: Down the roster, uh bottom, everybody, whether the rookies or not,

1033
00:52:26,320 --> 00:52:27,000
Speaker 19: instead of trying to.

1034
00:52:27,200 --> 00:52:29,399
Speaker 10: I think we're actively doing that. I think we've we've

1035
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 10: tried to do that all season, and we'll continue to

1036
00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 10: do it over the next couple of games on Mondays.

1037
00:52:36,320 --> 00:52:40,400
Speaker 15: One way he would describe DJ Turner is very driven,

1038
00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:45,000
Speaker 15: climbing all the time, especially this season. Your thoughts on DJ,

1039
00:52:45,239 --> 00:52:47,880
Speaker 15: and I know you've talked about his Pro Bowl potential.

1040
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:50,400
Speaker 10: Yeah, what are your thoughts.

1041
00:52:50,239 --> 00:52:51,799
Speaker 13: Of why he's done so well?

1042
00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:54,680
Speaker 10: Well, I think again, he's in his third year, so

1043
00:52:54,800 --> 00:52:56,600
Speaker 10: he's had a chance to learn from two years of

1044
00:52:56,680 --> 00:53:00,160
Speaker 10: experience of the ups and downs that you do with

1045
00:53:00,239 --> 00:53:02,360
Speaker 10: in this profession, you do with playing in corner, you know,

1046
00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:04,280
Speaker 10: and going against all the guys he's got to go against.

1047
00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,400
Speaker 10: And so I've often mentioned that the conversation he and

1048
00:53:08,440 --> 00:53:09,840
Speaker 10: I had in training camp, you know, coming out of

1049
00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,760
Speaker 10: training camp and he's coming off of an injury before

1050
00:53:12,840 --> 00:53:16,360
Speaker 10: week one, and his response was just consistent with all

1051
00:53:16,400 --> 00:53:18,080
Speaker 10: the work that he's really put in over the summer,

1052
00:53:18,560 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 10: and so now there's just this extreme consistency there. He's

1053
00:53:21,640 --> 00:53:23,520
Speaker 10: got a confidence that comes with that. Like I really

1054
00:53:23,640 --> 00:53:25,760
Speaker 10: you can see when a guy has earned the confidence.

1055
00:53:25,800 --> 00:53:27,360
Speaker 10: There's a lot of guys that can walk around with

1056
00:53:27,880 --> 00:53:31,520
Speaker 10: arrogance or brashness because they're talented, but the work ethic

1057
00:53:31,560 --> 00:53:34,520
Speaker 10: doesn't necessarily match the talent that they have. DJ is

1058
00:53:34,520 --> 00:53:36,640
Speaker 10: a guy who's confidence sims from the work he's put in,

1059
00:53:36,800 --> 00:53:38,680
Speaker 10: and so we've all seen it as players and coaches,

1060
00:53:39,040 --> 00:53:40,439
Speaker 10: and so to see him go out there and play

1061
00:53:40,480 --> 00:53:43,840
Speaker 10: with the consistency he has, it makes you really proud

1062
00:53:44,040 --> 00:53:47,279
Speaker 10: of him, because a guy who's just all right, I'm

1063
00:53:47,320 --> 00:53:49,000
Speaker 10: facing a little bit of adversity. I'm not starting the

1064
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:50,320
Speaker 10: week one. I was just told I'm not starting. I

1065
00:53:50,360 --> 00:53:53,800
Speaker 10: think I should be. Didn't say anything about his teammates,

1066
00:53:53,840 --> 00:53:55,759
Speaker 10: thought that they were very deserving the opportunity they got.

1067
00:53:56,239 --> 00:53:58,080
Speaker 10: I'm just going to go work, and that's what he did.

1068
00:53:58,200 --> 00:53:59,800
Speaker 10: He got his opportunity and he's made the most of it.

1069
00:54:00,000 --> 00:54:02,640
Speaker 10: Think he's having a Pro Bowl year, and so it's

1070
00:54:02,719 --> 00:54:04,920
Speaker 10: just I think proud is the first we're in. Not

1071
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:06,520
Speaker 10: that I I have anything to do. I don't go

1072
00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:09,520
Speaker 10: out there coach the corners. That's Chuck, that's him, that's

1073
00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,280
Speaker 10: out and everything that they're doing. But I am proud

1074
00:54:12,400 --> 00:54:14,480
Speaker 10: just to know the person and the response I've seen

1075
00:54:14,520 --> 00:54:16,760
Speaker 10: from him. That's leadership. Like when you talk about leadership,

1076
00:54:17,239 --> 00:54:20,560
Speaker 10: developing leadership, it doesn't always have to be loud and

1077
00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:22,279
Speaker 10: vocal and all that stuff something like, cause it can

1078
00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:23,360
Speaker 10: be a go out there and I'm just gonna do

1079
00:54:23,440 --> 00:54:25,600
Speaker 10: my job and make sure everyone knows I'm dependable and

1080
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,359
Speaker 10: they can count on me. And that's that's exactly who

1081
00:54:27,400 --> 00:54:31,600
Speaker 10: DJ Turner has been this year. Absolutely absolutely.

1082
00:54:34,480 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 3: Do you think Samana has a shot this week?

1083
00:54:36,440 --> 00:54:36,920
Speaker 5: And before?

1084
00:54:37,080 --> 00:54:40,279
Speaker 10: Because before you went, you know, as involved, what.

1085
00:54:40,400 --> 00:54:41,560
Speaker 3: Did you see from himything?

1086
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:44,400
Speaker 10: I saw a guy that was fighting through injury, you know,

1087
00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:46,480
Speaker 10: And and so I think he's just had a tough

1088
00:54:46,560 --> 00:54:48,960
Speaker 10: go of it this season. And and it's because just

1089
00:54:49,080 --> 00:54:50,600
Speaker 10: things that have happened to him on the field. And

1090
00:54:50,719 --> 00:54:53,440
Speaker 10: so I don't want to make any declarations about this

1091
00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:55,520
Speaker 10: week because we haven't got out there and practice yet.

1092
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:57,520
Speaker 10: I want to make sure we see him practice and

1093
00:54:58,160 --> 00:55:00,000
Speaker 10: he's got the confidence of that, We've got the compass

1094
00:55:00,120 --> 00:55:03,080
Speaker 10: that before we put him back out there. So again

1095
00:55:03,160 --> 00:55:05,000
Speaker 10: that's completely up in the air really as we watch

1096
00:55:05,080 --> 00:55:07,799
Speaker 10: him go through the week. But I like he sits

1097
00:55:07,840 --> 00:55:09,560
Speaker 10: in the front road of the team meetings. Man, He's

1098
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:11,920
Speaker 10: He's always on me when I'm up there presenting. He

1099
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:14,160
Speaker 10: does a great job taking it all. In Jerry's office

1100
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,440
Speaker 10: is right next to mine. You know, I can see

1101
00:55:16,480 --> 00:55:19,399
Speaker 10: the attitude he's got every single day, and so I'm

1102
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,080
Speaker 10: fired up when when we do get him out there,

1103
00:55:21,080 --> 00:55:23,759
Speaker 10: whether it's this week or not, for the future that

1104
00:55:23,840 --> 00:55:25,520
Speaker 10: he's got here, because he's a guy that I'm really

1105
00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:25,800
Speaker 10: high on.

1106
00:55:26,040 --> 00:55:28,080
Speaker 3: He seemed pretty active, I mean like in August.

1107
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,399
Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, he didn't have much of absolutely spring.

1108
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:34,200
Speaker 3: He just seemed to be active before you hear anything.

1109
00:55:33,960 --> 00:55:35,719
Speaker 10: Jack, Yeah, and he was healthy, you know, and then

1110
00:55:36,120 --> 00:55:38,440
Speaker 10: said to fight through the injuries. That's tough to evaluate

1111
00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 10: any rookie when they're fighting through injuries. We had that

1112
00:55:40,480 --> 00:55:42,960
Speaker 10: last year with Chris, we had Am McKinley, we had

1113
00:55:43,040 --> 00:55:44,960
Speaker 10: we had some guys that just got dinged up during

1114
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:47,320
Speaker 10: the season and they fight through it, just like Shamar

1115
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:49,319
Speaker 10: has done. And so I look forward to get him

1116
00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:50,880
Speaker 10: on the field and letting him make an impact for

1117
00:55:50,960 --> 00:55:52,319
Speaker 10: us because I know what he's healthy, he'll be able

1118
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:52,600
Speaker 10: to do that.

1119
00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:55,160
Speaker 18: I was thinking about this going back to Miami, and

1120
00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,479
Speaker 18: then you mentioned lessons from twenty nineteen and twenty twenty.

1121
00:55:57,960 --> 00:56:01,080
Speaker 18: In twenty nineteen in Miami, what did it end up meaning?

1122
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 18: The way Voyd like fought back to the line of

1123
00:56:03,239 --> 00:56:05,560
Speaker 18: scrimmage in that one moment when it was hurt and

1124
00:56:05,719 --> 00:56:07,359
Speaker 18: kind of hoping to see some similar things down.

1125
00:56:07,680 --> 00:56:09,360
Speaker 10: Yeah, it shows the heart and the character of the

1126
00:56:09,400 --> 00:56:13,960
Speaker 10: guys we have that they just want to win. You know,

1127
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:16,160
Speaker 10: you tune out the outside noise, and you tune out,

1128
00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,000
Speaker 10: you know, anybody making a comments to you about a draft,

1129
00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,359
Speaker 10: and none of that's just nonsense. We put every second

1130
00:56:20,400 --> 00:56:23,840
Speaker 10: of our livelihood into winning games and doing everything we

1131
00:56:23,920 --> 00:56:26,200
Speaker 10: can to represent ourselves the right way. And so these

1132
00:56:26,239 --> 00:56:27,880
Speaker 10: types of games are big character games. You get a

1133
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 10: chance to reveal what we're made of. You know, we

1134
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:31,839
Speaker 10: know we're not going to the playoffs, but you still

1135
00:56:31,840 --> 00:56:32,960
Speaker 10: get a chance to go out there and fight like

1136
00:56:33,000 --> 00:56:35,840
Speaker 10: we did in twenty nineteen. And you know, I remember

1137
00:56:36,000 --> 00:56:39,239
Speaker 10: Eifert picking up TV on triple in and helping them

1138
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 10: get up and we clocked the ball and then we

1139
00:56:40,680 --> 00:56:43,160
Speaker 10: throw a vertigo for touchdown the next play. And all

1140
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:47,520
Speaker 10: this tape that we still use today is represented by

1141
00:56:47,560 --> 00:56:50,120
Speaker 10: those guys that started this process for me, you know,

1142
00:56:50,239 --> 00:56:52,000
Speaker 10: the TVs and the geos of the world, and the

1143
00:56:52,080 --> 00:56:55,600
Speaker 10: cjs and the guys that fought to build the culture

1144
00:56:55,600 --> 00:56:57,840
Speaker 10: and the foundation that we kept building on over all

1145
00:56:57,920 --> 00:57:00,040
Speaker 10: these years. And we got the guys. The guys in

1146
00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 10: the locker room are doing the same thing right now.

1147
00:57:01,800 --> 00:57:04,800
Speaker 10: Is disappointing where we're at, but we're still have a

1148
00:57:04,840 --> 00:57:06,520
Speaker 10: foundation that we're going to continue to build on and

1149
00:57:06,600 --> 00:57:09,200
Speaker 10: so we can go win divisional titles and conference titles

1150
00:57:09,239 --> 00:57:10,360
Speaker 10: and Super Bowls in the future.

1151
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:15,440
Speaker 17: Part of you like when you met Joe, Thank goodness

1152
00:57:15,520 --> 00:57:18,080
Speaker 17: week we got out of Miami losing because we get Joe.

1153
00:57:18,320 --> 00:57:22,000
Speaker 10: No, no, it's you couldn't look at it like that. Well, again,

1154
00:57:22,680 --> 00:57:24,520
Speaker 10: that's just doing a disservice to the work we put

1155
00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:26,360
Speaker 10: in every single day. If you say, oh, you want

1156
00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,000
Speaker 10: to go lose a football like, absolutely not that you know.

1157
00:57:29,120 --> 00:57:31,640
Speaker 10: I don't think people really understand what the next morning

1158
00:57:31,720 --> 00:57:33,440
Speaker 10: feels like for us when we lose the game, what

1159
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,120
Speaker 10: the bus ride feels like, what the plane ride feels like. Well,

1160
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 10: we're getting out the next day and doing whatever you

1161
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:40,640
Speaker 10: got to do and trying to get the guys going

1162
00:57:40,720 --> 00:57:43,120
Speaker 10: again on a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday to get ready to

1163
00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,400
Speaker 10: play on Sunday. But it does your fair none of that.

1164
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:50,360
Speaker 10: So we fight every second to win football games. We

1165
00:57:50,440 --> 00:57:54,160
Speaker 10: don't for one second tolerate anybody that says we should

1166
00:57:54,200 --> 00:57:56,000
Speaker 10: do this or that and not focus on winning. So

1167
00:57:57,080 --> 00:57:58,520
Speaker 10: that's what I love when I have a team meeting

1168
00:57:58,560 --> 00:58:00,600
Speaker 10: this morning and you just look in their eyes. Everybody's

1169
00:58:00,600 --> 00:58:02,720
Speaker 10: on the same page. Everyone knows what's at stake here.

1170
00:58:03,080 --> 00:58:04,480
Speaker 10: What's at stak is we need to win the games

1171
00:58:04,600 --> 00:58:07,000
Speaker 10: we feel better and so that we can build some

1172
00:58:07,080 --> 00:58:08,880
Speaker 10: momentum ourselves and then go win the next one and

1173
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:10,600
Speaker 10: then do things we got to do in the off

1174
00:58:10,640 --> 00:58:13,520
Speaker 10: season to keep improving our team. But that's our only

1175
00:58:13,600 --> 00:58:16,120
Speaker 10: focus right now is finding a way to go down

1176
00:58:16,120 --> 00:58:18,960
Speaker 10: to Miami, win the game, get on the bus, and

1177
00:58:19,000 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 10: the point with a smile on our face because it's

1178
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:23,560
Speaker 10: been too few of those this year. Thanks you're there.

1179
00:58:23,720 --> 00:58:26,080
Speaker 14: Going back to what you were talking about with the setup,

1180
00:58:26,440 --> 00:58:28,440
Speaker 14: and you talked about how much you love the input

1181
00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:30,720
Speaker 14: you get to have with the scouts and the setup here.

1182
00:58:32,120 --> 00:58:35,000
Speaker 14: How willing is the organization And I'll ask this to

1183
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:36,480
Speaker 14: you too, but centrire big part of.

1184
00:58:36,480 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 3: The draft process is to look at you guys.

1185
00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:42,040
Speaker 14: Had a lot of success that you've talked about with

1186
00:58:42,200 --> 00:58:45,360
Speaker 14: that twenty one and twenty two seasons, but the last

1187
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:47,680
Speaker 14: couple of seasons with them all ending and losing seasons,

1188
00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 14: how willing is everybody to look at the process and

1189
00:58:50,720 --> 00:58:53,000
Speaker 14: maybe make tweaks and changes to it if.

1190
00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:55,200
Speaker 10: Need Yeah, I think for a lot of the reasons

1191
00:58:55,360 --> 00:58:58,000
Speaker 10: everything was praised in twenty one and twenty two and

1192
00:58:58,080 --> 00:59:00,280
Speaker 10: then you have down years and it's ok, you need

1193
00:59:00,360 --> 00:59:02,520
Speaker 10: to change everything. Well, where were those comments when we

1194
00:59:02,640 --> 00:59:04,840
Speaker 10: were doing it very similarly and we are ever a

1195
00:59:04,880 --> 00:59:09,280
Speaker 10: great year. So for us, everybody is always open to evolving.

1196
00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:11,680
Speaker 10: I can't speak for everybody, but I know just from

1197
00:59:11,800 --> 00:59:14,320
Speaker 10: dealing with everybody in this building. Everyone wants to win

1198
00:59:14,400 --> 00:59:17,240
Speaker 10: and do everything it takes to win, and so I

1199
00:59:17,320 --> 00:59:19,480
Speaker 10: know that better than anybody because I interact with everybody,

1200
00:59:19,600 --> 00:59:22,640
Speaker 10: and so I feel extreme confidence that we're all on

1201
00:59:22,680 --> 00:59:24,760
Speaker 10: the same page. All we want to do is win

1202
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:27,479
Speaker 10: and bring championships here to Cincinnati, and we'll do whatever

1203
00:59:27,560 --> 00:59:29,800
Speaker 10: it takes to put it specific words on how that's

1204
00:59:29,800 --> 00:59:31,600
Speaker 10: going to look. That's all for us behind the scenes

1205
00:59:31,640 --> 00:59:33,600
Speaker 10: to work through it and make sure we do all that.

1206
00:59:33,800 --> 00:59:37,000
Speaker 10: But I have absolute confidence that we have the right

1207
00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:39,720
Speaker 10: people and the right setups to make this happen, because

1208
00:59:39,760 --> 00:59:41,360
Speaker 10: we've proven it and we'll prove it again.

1209
00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:44,000
Speaker 17: You believe ownership in the front office feels the same

1210
00:59:44,040 --> 00:59:44,600
Speaker 17: way about it.

1211
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:46,640
Speaker 10: I don't want to speak for anybody, and I get

1212
00:59:46,680 --> 00:59:50,320
Speaker 10: what Mike just said, but I have a great relationship

1213
00:59:50,360 --> 00:59:52,920
Speaker 10: with them. I believe in them. I don't ever want

1214
00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,360
Speaker 10: to speak for someone when they're speaking about me. That's unfair.

1215
00:59:55,400 --> 00:59:58,440
Speaker 10: I shouldn't do that. But I love the relationship I

1216
00:59:58,480 --> 01:00:00,880
Speaker 10: have with everyone in this building. Unique thing about this

1217
01:00:01,040 --> 01:00:02,680
Speaker 10: is we get the meet so often, and that's a

1218
01:00:02,760 --> 01:00:06,560
Speaker 10: really good thing because there's no three weeks of no

1219
01:00:06,680 --> 01:00:10,360
Speaker 10: communication face to face. I'm wondering what they think about

1220
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:12,200
Speaker 10: a game, what they think about none of that. We

1221
01:00:12,440 --> 01:00:14,640
Speaker 10: get a chance to form a relationship and go through

1222
01:00:14,640 --> 01:00:16,360
Speaker 10: all this stuff and it's the right way to do it.

1223
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:20,840
Speaker 10: And so again I'm excited for to finish out this

1224
01:00:20,920 --> 01:00:22,920
Speaker 10: season the right way and for the future as well.

1225
01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,560
Speaker 16: Like Miami made a change at our quarterback, looks like

1226
01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,040
Speaker 16: the Quins.

1227
01:00:27,520 --> 01:00:29,040
Speaker 10: I haven't seen that. I mean, I know that was

1228
01:00:29,080 --> 01:00:31,000
Speaker 10: a report, I haven't heard Mike McDaniel say that. So

1229
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:34,080
Speaker 10: until that, they've got a really good offense. I think

1230
01:00:34,160 --> 01:00:37,960
Speaker 10: that Mike does a great job with the scheme. I

1231
01:00:38,000 --> 01:00:39,840
Speaker 10: don't want to call it unique because we've seen it

1232
01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:41,840
Speaker 10: over the years with him at different places. But he

1233
01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,440
Speaker 10: does a really good job being creative and stressing you

1234
01:00:44,560 --> 01:00:46,480
Speaker 10: in different ways maybe that some other teams don't in

1235
01:00:46,520 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 10: the run game, and not afraid to be very creative

1236
01:00:50,080 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 10: with how he does it. And so got a lot

1237
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:53,720
Speaker 10: of respect for Mike McDaniel and the job he does.

1238
01:00:54,120 --> 01:00:58,560
Speaker 10: And I know they ran into some circumstances in Pittsburgh

1239
01:00:58,680 --> 01:01:01,400
Speaker 10: and cold weather and that's that's a good team. But

1240
01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:05,280
Speaker 10: it's a it's a very difficult offense, regardless of who

1241
01:01:05,360 --> 01:01:07,680
Speaker 10: the quarterback is. They put a lot of stressing in

1242
01:01:07,720 --> 01:01:09,360
Speaker 10: the run game. They do a great job getting guys

1243
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:11,280
Speaker 10: open with a lot of speed in the past game

1244
01:01:11,320 --> 01:01:13,680
Speaker 10: that can finish on exposive plays, and so it's a

1245
01:01:13,760 --> 01:01:15,000
Speaker 10: very challenging group to go against.

1246
01:01:15,240 --> 01:01:18,000
Speaker 16: You drafted a quarterback in a while, even the late

1247
01:01:18,080 --> 01:01:20,840
Speaker 16: rounds has that this year was at considerational know y'all

1248
01:01:20,920 --> 01:01:23,480
Speaker 16: swop through the QB and three a lot this offseason.

1249
01:01:23,560 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 16: Was it a consideration and maybe see what you can

1250
01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:25,600
Speaker 16: get the seven.

1251
01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 10: We always evaluate, you know, we always evaluate who's out

1252
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:32,120
Speaker 10: there and how they fit us, put up against another position,

1253
01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:36,480
Speaker 10: put up against our quarterback room. And obviously we've we've

1254
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:37,280
Speaker 10: done what we've done.

1255
01:01:37,520 --> 01:01:39,560
Speaker 20: Zach when you, I know you're focused obviously just on

1256
01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,360
Speaker 20: winning the game in front you. With three games left,

1257
01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:42,600
Speaker 20: what do you want to see out of guys that

1258
01:01:42,680 --> 01:01:44,760
Speaker 20: are no maybe outside of the four guys that you

1259
01:01:44,880 --> 01:01:47,080
Speaker 20: have that when you when you go at the end

1260
01:01:47,080 --> 01:01:48,240
Speaker 20: of the season started valuating and.

1261
01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:50,040
Speaker 3: Figure out what you need to for twenty twenty six,

1262
01:01:50,400 --> 01:01:50,840
Speaker 3: what can.

1263
01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:52,840
Speaker 20: Guys show in these last three games to show that

1264
01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:55,760
Speaker 20: they should be part of what you had a part

1265
01:01:55,760 --> 01:01:57,280
Speaker 20: of the play before you get figure out what you

1266
01:01:57,360 --> 01:01:59,919
Speaker 20: need to add or improve on the team to get back.

1267
01:01:59,840 --> 01:02:01,840
Speaker 10: To continue on the same trajectory. A lot of these

1268
01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:05,000
Speaker 10: guys are on you know, I think with any player

1269
01:02:05,040 --> 01:02:07,680
Speaker 10: at the beginning of their career, guys that have gone

1270
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:10,080
Speaker 10: on the field for us have have truly you can

1271
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:12,080
Speaker 10: truthfully say you've gotten better every single game. And so

1272
01:02:12,720 --> 01:02:15,120
Speaker 10: just to continue on with that and all the work

1273
01:02:15,160 --> 01:02:16,920
Speaker 10: that these guys are put in over of course their careers,

1274
01:02:17,080 --> 01:02:21,120
Speaker 10: but really starting back in January of getting putting together

1275
01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,080
Speaker 10: great offseason, all the work they put in the summer

1276
01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,720
Speaker 10: training camp, going through this season like it's you don't

1277
01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:28,320
Speaker 10: stop now just because of the circumstances we're in. So

1278
01:02:29,320 --> 01:02:31,120
Speaker 10: I expect these guys to continue to give their best.

1279
01:02:31,160 --> 01:02:33,640
Speaker 10: I know they will. And to your question, what are

1280
01:02:33,680 --> 01:02:35,160
Speaker 10: young guys? You just want to see him continue on

1281
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:37,800
Speaker 10: the same trajectory we've seen them on, especially this last

1282
01:02:37,800 --> 01:02:42,680
Speaker 10: couple weeks. All right, thank you, all right.

1283
01:02:44,160 --> 01:02:46,040
Speaker 3: There we have at Austin. It's my favorite one of

1284
01:02:46,080 --> 01:02:48,280
Speaker 3: the year. That's by far.

1285
01:02:48,880 --> 01:02:51,520
Speaker 4: I thought that was as much pushback as we've heard

1286
01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:53,600
Speaker 4: Zach take at a press conference in quite some time.

1287
01:02:56,320 --> 01:02:57,960
Speaker 3: I don't really know if I agree with Zach that

1288
01:02:58,000 --> 01:02:59,680
Speaker 3: he said they hit on all six picks this year.

1289
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,640
Speaker 3: There is a jury still out on that. I don't

1290
01:03:04,720 --> 01:03:07,760
Speaker 3: fully believe the relationship with Duke and working side by side.

1291
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:09,760
Speaker 3: Along with what he had to say about the scouting department,

1292
01:03:10,760 --> 01:03:12,520
Speaker 3: he did take ownership and said I'm the one to

1293
01:03:12,560 --> 01:03:14,840
Speaker 3: blame for this, no one else, I'm the one to blame.

1294
01:03:17,200 --> 01:03:20,720
Speaker 3: He also made mention of how much he's talking to

1295
01:03:20,880 --> 01:03:27,320
Speaker 3: ownership weekly. Yeah, and that is a unique thing about

1296
01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:33,280
Speaker 3: this job, is the Monday meetings with ownership. Marvin Lewis

1297
01:03:33,320 --> 01:03:36,720
Speaker 3: has talked about this over the years. It's something that

1298
01:03:36,920 --> 01:03:42,720
Speaker 3: happens does not happen across the NFL, and I do

1299
01:03:42,880 --> 01:03:46,920
Speaker 3: think that that can lead to a very clear understanding

1300
01:03:47,000 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 3: of where you stand within the organization. Sure, and you

1301
01:03:50,240 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 3: know we know this about Mike Brown. He will not

1302
01:03:52,840 --> 01:03:56,720
Speaker 3: mince his words. He will be very straightforward when talking

1303
01:03:56,760 --> 01:03:59,200
Speaker 3: about how he feels or what he thinks. I always

1304
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:03,480
Speaker 3: think of Andre Smith walking into his office on Hard

1305
01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:06,760
Speaker 3: Knocks and Mike Brown basically said, you need to lose

1306
01:04:06,800 --> 01:04:09,920
Speaker 3: some weight, big boy, And like even the way that

1307
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:12,960
Speaker 3: he addressed Trey Hendrickson at Mock Turtle Soup Day this year,

1308
01:04:13,040 --> 01:04:15,600
Speaker 3: Mike Brown's not afraid to tell you what he thinks. Nope.

1309
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:17,280
Speaker 3: And I do think that's a good thing for a

1310
01:04:17,320 --> 01:04:20,280
Speaker 3: head coach in the NFL each week, to be able

1311
01:04:20,320 --> 01:04:26,360
Speaker 3: to have those conversations. I don't understand why Zach would

1312
01:04:26,440 --> 01:04:31,720
Speaker 3: not confirm his contract status. Yeah, it was weird how

1313
01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:37,080
Speaker 3: he went around that. I don't understand why. What's the

1314
01:04:37,200 --> 01:04:42,840
Speaker 3: purpose of not confirming that? Correct that I agree with that.

1315
01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:47,760
Speaker 3: I would love to get an answer is why can't.

1316
01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:48,840
Speaker 5: We know that? Yeah?

1317
01:04:50,160 --> 01:04:54,439
Speaker 3: Traigs did some work today, man, Trags, you know he's

1318
01:04:54,800 --> 01:04:57,240
Speaker 3: Traggs is saying the quiet part out loud. Traggs is

1319
01:04:57,280 --> 01:04:59,080
Speaker 3: adamant and he has been for a week couple weeks now.

1320
01:04:59,480 --> 01:05:02,520
Speaker 3: We don't get to talk to anyone else. That's that's

1321
01:05:02,600 --> 01:05:05,280
Speaker 3: Trike's thing, like, we don't get to hear from anyone else,

1322
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,600
Speaker 3: so you have to tell us yeah. And this is

1323
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:12,560
Speaker 3: the first time where I felt like Zach was kind

1324
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:18,720
Speaker 3: of like, oh yeah, you know, yeah, I had enough.

1325
01:05:20,880 --> 01:05:24,480
Speaker 3: I loved it, and I'm I appreciate from a strictly

1326
01:05:24,560 --> 01:05:28,760
Speaker 3: from a Bengals fan perspective, I appreciate that Trags push

1327
01:05:28,840 --> 01:05:31,400
Speaker 3: back on that. Yes, Zach kind of stepped in it

1328
01:05:31,480 --> 01:05:34,040
Speaker 3: by saying you would have to ask them, because that

1329
01:05:34,160 --> 01:05:36,600
Speaker 3: throws the alley you for Trags to dunk and say

1330
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:39,400
Speaker 3: we don't get to talk to them, yea, And after that,

1331
01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:43,640
Speaker 3: Zach doesn't have anything he can say. It is, you know,

1332
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:48,200
Speaker 3: unfortunate that Zach has to be the guy. We would

1333
01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:54,040
Speaker 3: love more transparency from Duke and ownership. It's not going

1334
01:05:54,120 --> 01:06:01,120
Speaker 3: to happen. Agreed, that was enjoyable. I might listen to

1335
01:06:01,200 --> 01:06:03,560
Speaker 3: it again as soon as I'm off work today. We'll uh,

1336
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:08,320
Speaker 3: we'll till take our break. Kelsey asked a good question

1337
01:06:08,400 --> 01:06:11,480
Speaker 3: two at the end, which is kind of the question

1338
01:06:11,560 --> 01:06:13,720
Speaker 3: I've been asking the question of the off season. How

1339
01:06:13,760 --> 01:06:16,320
Speaker 3: are the processes going to change? Yeah, I didn't like

1340
01:06:16,440 --> 01:06:17,480
Speaker 3: Zac's answer to that either.

1341
01:06:17,560 --> 01:06:23,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll take a break when we come back. Your Talkbacks,

01:07:01,680 --> 01:07:02,680
Speaker 4: Cincinnati Sports Station.

1355
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:08,560
Speaker 23: Does your favorite NFL team have an ownership that runs

1356
01:07:08,600 --> 01:07:11,080
Speaker 23: it like a small business, Well you better hope to

1357
01:07:11,160 --> 01:07:14,720
Speaker 23: christ that they have super share. Don't be kind of sure,

1358
01:07:15,120 --> 01:07:18,000
Speaker 23: don't be pretty sure, don't be a little share. You

1359
01:07:18,120 --> 01:07:19,720
Speaker 23: better be super sure that that.

1360
01:07:23,400 --> 01:07:26,760
Speaker 24: I truly can't believe my eyes in that video of

1361
01:07:26,880 --> 01:07:29,680
Speaker 24: Tony dressed up as the elf he was touching a

1362
01:07:29,800 --> 01:07:31,720
Speaker 24: public trash can wow.

1363
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:34,160
Speaker 5: I don't know.

1364
01:07:34,280 --> 01:07:38,280
Speaker 3: I'm not a germ guy, eh, I mean I like

1365
01:07:38,360 --> 01:07:39,200
Speaker 3: to keep things clean.

1366
01:07:39,360 --> 01:07:41,720
Speaker 25: I think the Bengals had a great year. They got

1367
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:44,240
Speaker 25: their starting safety to agree to take a pay cut,

1368
01:07:45,000 --> 01:07:47,760
Speaker 25: then they beat Shamar Stewart and his agent and forced

1369
01:07:47,840 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 25: him to take the forfeiture provision and his rookie contract.

1370
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,160
Speaker 25: Only two members of the Ring of Honor called him

1371
01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:58,360
Speaker 25: out for being a Cheapskatee Boomera and Corey Dillon. And lastly,

1372
01:07:58,520 --> 01:08:00,760
Speaker 25: he saved a much bunch of money by not having

1373
01:08:00,840 --> 01:08:04,120
Speaker 25: to pay someone to remove the snow from the stadium.

1374
01:08:04,360 --> 01:08:06,720
Speaker 25: It was a great year for Mike Brown and the Bengals.

1375
01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:11,439
Speaker 26: Tony quick question.

1376
01:08:12,280 --> 01:08:16,000
Speaker 24: I see your boy Jesus back on the team, and

1377
01:08:16,200 --> 01:08:21,000
Speaker 24: it kind of shows how desperate Wes is to get

1378
01:08:21,040 --> 01:08:22,160
Speaker 24: this thing going in the right.

1379
01:08:22,120 --> 01:08:23,879
Speaker 27: Direction, which I understand.

1380
01:08:24,680 --> 01:08:28,920
Speaker 24: But I just can't see Huggins or Cronin allowing someone

1381
01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:31,400
Speaker 24: back on the team after all that's happened.

1382
01:08:31,400 --> 01:08:32,439
Speaker 5: I mean, what's your opinion.

1383
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:36,120
Speaker 3: I think it's a I think it's a desperate play.

1384
01:08:36,360 --> 01:08:40,240
Speaker 3: I don't think that Wes Miller has has many other

1385
01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 3: plays left in the playbook. That would be my thought.

1386
01:08:43,400 --> 01:08:46,080
Speaker 5: I now present to you the relationship between Bengals fans

1387
01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:46,759
Speaker 5: and Mike Brown.

1388
01:08:53,320 --> 01:08:54,680
Speaker 28: Do you really think about it?

1389
01:09:07,680 --> 01:09:10,559
Speaker 13: Hey, Audie, I heard you yesterday that you really enjoying

1390
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:11,560
Speaker 13: your sasty.

1391
01:09:11,880 --> 01:09:12,120
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1392
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:13,559
Speaker 3: Head mask.

1393
01:09:14,920 --> 01:09:17,200
Speaker 13: People don't know what it is. It's like a you know,

1394
01:09:17,400 --> 01:09:20,400
Speaker 13: something like a ski mask or whatever that goes over

1395
01:09:20,479 --> 01:09:24,320
Speaker 13: your whole head and covers your mouth. In fact, I

1396
01:09:25,240 --> 01:09:28,160
Speaker 13: think you should wear it in the studio to cover

1397
01:09:28,280 --> 01:09:31,080
Speaker 13: your mouth and I can stand behind you and tighten

1398
01:09:31,160 --> 01:09:32,760
Speaker 13: it down so your lips don't move.

1399
01:09:33,040 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 5: Wow.

1400
01:09:35,200 --> 01:09:39,320
Speaker 3: Wow, today it's freezing in here. Even given the Bengals

1401
01:09:39,400 --> 01:09:40,800
Speaker 3: pathetic history of losing.

1402
01:09:40,560 --> 01:09:43,679
Speaker 27: The backup quarterbacks, if we do lose to Quinn Ewrs,

1403
01:09:43,760 --> 01:09:46,120
Speaker 27: the whole thing needs to be burnt down and restarted.

1404
01:09:46,520 --> 01:09:50,439
Speaker 3: That guy is a bomb. Wow, he did get that

1405
01:09:50,600 --> 01:09:52,640
Speaker 3: Christmas tree to jump off side. The other week. You know,

1406
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:55,439
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow or Zach Taylor was saying coaches every game

1407
01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:58,040
Speaker 3: like it's his last. If he loses to Quinn Yours,

1408
01:09:58,080 --> 01:09:59,080
Speaker 3: it might be as life could be.

1409
01:09:59,640 --> 01:10:04,120
Speaker 29: What anecdotal evidence is there to suggest Joe Burrow actually

1410
01:10:04,479 --> 01:10:09,800
Speaker 29: likes playing for Zach Taylor Other than Joe not trashing

1411
01:10:10,160 --> 01:10:13,719
Speaker 29: Zach publicly, we all just assume Joe likes Zach.

1412
01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:14,479
Speaker 5: How do we know that?

1413
01:10:14,600 --> 01:10:16,720
Speaker 29: Do you think Joe wants to play the entirety of

1414
01:10:16,840 --> 01:10:20,280
Speaker 29: his career for Zach Taylor. This is absurd. By the way,

1415
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:25,360
Speaker 29: playing Joe these last three weeks makes no sense whatsoever.

1416
01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,280
Speaker 29: Can you imagine if he suffers yet another catastrophic injury.

1417
01:10:31,200 --> 01:10:35,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's players want to play and they're paid well

1418
01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:38,960
Speaker 3: to play. Coaches should have the best interest for those players.

1419
01:10:40,760 --> 01:10:42,640
Speaker 3: I just like you heard Zach talk about it. You

1420
01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,479
Speaker 3: heard Travis Kelsey talk about it, like, guys, aren't just

1421
01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:50,240
Speaker 3: going to quit playing football? You cannot operate scared, You

1422
01:10:50,360 --> 01:10:53,760
Speaker 3: just can't. I get where you're coming from, but that's

1423
01:10:53,800 --> 01:10:56,639
Speaker 3: a reality every time he steps on the field, whether

1424
01:10:56,720 --> 01:10:58,639
Speaker 3: it's week fifteen or week five.

1425
01:11:01,920 --> 01:11:04,559
Speaker 30: It's the lord. I gotta start bench cut. Hello, lord,

1426
01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:08,519
Speaker 30: do you like getting Christmas presents wrapped? Do you like

1427
01:11:08,640 --> 01:11:13,720
Speaker 30: getting Christmas presents in gift bags? Or do you just

1428
01:11:13,880 --> 01:11:15,479
Speaker 30: like getting gift cards?

1429
01:11:17,360 --> 01:11:21,720
Speaker 3: I legit could care less about At my age, I

1430
01:11:21,800 --> 01:11:25,439
Speaker 3: could care less about gifts that I get. However it's gifted,

1431
01:11:25,520 --> 01:11:29,680
Speaker 3: I don't care. I thoroughly enjoy the the process of

1432
01:11:29,760 --> 01:11:32,000
Speaker 3: gift giving, and when I give gifts, I wrap them.

1433
01:11:32,360 --> 01:11:36,400
Speaker 3: That's not the question. I would rather unwrap a gift. Okay,

1434
01:11:36,520 --> 01:11:38,920
Speaker 3: it's a start bench cut. Well, you've really struggled with

1435
01:11:39,000 --> 01:11:41,320
Speaker 3: this over the last couple of months. Start bench cut,

1436
01:11:42,560 --> 01:11:46,720
Speaker 3: give the options. I'll start the wrap, okay, I'll cut

1437
01:11:47,080 --> 01:11:49,160
Speaker 3: the bag, all right. Or I'll bench the bag and

1438
01:11:49,200 --> 01:11:51,360
Speaker 3: I'll cut the gift card. Okay, I agree, put the

1439
01:11:51,400 --> 01:11:55,519
Speaker 3: gift card in the bag. St It's easy, almost as

1440
01:11:55,600 --> 01:11:57,679
Speaker 3: easy as answer. You can start bitch cut true.

1441
01:11:59,160 --> 01:12:02,360
Speaker 31: So turning Tony, this one's vainly for you. But Austin,

1442
01:12:02,400 --> 01:12:07,000
Speaker 31: feel free to answer instead of start bench cutt We're

1443
01:12:07,040 --> 01:12:15,559
Speaker 31: gonna do fire, keep, extend, Zach Taylor, West, Miller, Scott's Saderfield.

1444
01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,599
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I can't wait to listen. Oh my gosh.

1445
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:26,120
Speaker 3: I'll go first, go ahead, fire West, Miller, Yeah, keep

1446
01:12:26,640 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 3: Zach Taylor, extend Scott Saderfield.

1447
01:12:29,400 --> 01:12:29,679
Speaker 22: Wow.

1448
01:12:31,760 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 3: At this point, it's probably fire West. Although I've been

1449
01:12:35,600 --> 01:12:39,280
Speaker 3: banging the Zach Taylor drum for quite some time. I've

1450
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:41,840
Speaker 3: been I've been on the Zach Taylor thing for longer

1451
01:12:41,880 --> 01:12:44,559
Speaker 3: than I have been on the West. So I'll fire Zach. Oh,

1452
01:12:46,600 --> 01:12:48,680
Speaker 3: it means you have to keep her, extend West. I'll

1453
01:12:48,760 --> 01:12:50,840
Speaker 3: keep West because Jessel's back and who knows how they

1454
01:12:50,880 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 3: play with Jessel, And then I'll extend Sat good day

1455
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:56,320
Speaker 3: to be set seven wins Wing Wednesday.

1456
01:12:56,439 --> 01:13:02,439
Speaker 32: For those who celebrate Tony and Austin, we some hilarious antics.

1457
01:13:02,080 --> 01:13:03,240
Speaker 6: This bowl season.

1458
01:13:04,000 --> 01:13:07,920
Speaker 32: We get Mayo getting dumped on a coach, a pop

1459
01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,400
Speaker 32: top getting eaten alive. What would we have for a

1460
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:15,160
Speaker 32: Tony Pike three to sixty Bowl? Maybe Austin in a

1461
01:13:15,280 --> 01:13:19,439
Speaker 32: dunk take, maybe those goofy boys that Halloween for our

1462
01:13:19,520 --> 01:13:23,000
Speaker 32: chier leaders, or maybe something else.

1463
01:13:23,120 --> 01:13:24,280
Speaker 6: What do you guys think.

1464
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:26,120
Speaker 3: I'd throw Austin in the dunk tank?

1465
01:13:27,240 --> 01:13:27,400
Speaker 5: Yeah?

1466
01:13:27,439 --> 01:13:29,840
Speaker 3: I would do that. Yeah, I got what. We're gonna

1467
01:13:29,840 --> 01:13:33,759
Speaker 3: have a lot of water. Hey, just a couple of questions.

1468
01:13:34,680 --> 01:13:37,519
Speaker 27: First off, do you think it's better to put in

1469
01:13:37,600 --> 01:13:39,920
Speaker 27: the backups and see what you got for next year

1470
01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 27: and lose out to improve a draft position? I think

1471
01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:46,040
Speaker 27: if we win less three games, so you can pretty

1472
01:13:46,080 --> 01:13:50,960
Speaker 27: much say goodbye to Caleb Downs or anybody being a

1473
01:13:51,240 --> 01:13:55,000
Speaker 27: starter or a significant contributor. And also my second question

1474
01:13:55,080 --> 01:13:57,559
Speaker 27: would be for Tony, do you have any eligibility left

1475
01:13:57,600 --> 01:13:59,240
Speaker 27: that you could help out during the bowl game.

1476
01:14:01,560 --> 01:14:06,640
Speaker 3: I'm out of eligibility. I'm more of one that that

1477
01:14:06,720 --> 01:14:09,040
Speaker 3: I would rather get the higher draft pick. Are you

1478
01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:12,040
Speaker 3: one hundred percent out of eligibility. For sure, I would

1479
01:14:12,040 --> 01:14:15,320
Speaker 3: honestly have to look. I would have to look, but

1480
01:14:15,439 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 3: I think I am.

1481
01:14:16,880 --> 01:14:19,040
Speaker 33: Hey, guys, DJ east Side little onto the weather.

1482
01:14:19,080 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 3: He's last couple of days.

1483
01:14:20,040 --> 01:14:21,880
Speaker 33: Not sure if it's due to missing my daily dose

1484
01:14:21,960 --> 01:14:24,599
Speaker 33: of Tony Pikes since he three sixty, or if it's

1485
01:14:24,680 --> 01:14:27,960
Speaker 33: the bird flu. The Browns family has continually flipped the

1486
01:14:28,120 --> 01:14:29,920
Speaker 33: bird to the fans in this city, and I know

1487
01:14:30,000 --> 01:14:32,920
Speaker 33: he sees were just another sad chapter. I knew Zack's

1488
01:14:32,920 --> 01:14:34,599
Speaker 33: has way too comfortable in his post game.

1489
01:14:35,080 --> 01:14:36,120
Speaker 6: He knows he's not going.

1490
01:14:36,000 --> 01:14:37,120
Speaker 3: Anywhere prom with Zach Is.

1491
01:14:37,120 --> 01:14:38,920
Speaker 33: He couldn't coach a bunch of kids open the cookie,

1492
01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:40,080
Speaker 33: Jarnis it was already open.

1493
01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:40,479
Speaker 5: Wow.

1494
01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:42,920
Speaker 33: If conditions aren't perfect the entire game, he finds a

1495
01:14:42,960 --> 01:14:44,680
Speaker 33: way to lose, not coach his way to a win.

1496
01:14:44,920 --> 01:14:45,680
Speaker 3: Thanks for the lump of.

1497
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:51,720
Speaker 34: Cole Mike, Hey, Austin, Hey, Tony Paul from Cleaves here.

1498
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:53,960
Speaker 34: Just wanted to say that I'm on board with Joe

1499
01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:56,880
Speaker 34: Burrow starting the last three games of the season. And

1500
01:14:57,240 --> 01:14:59,360
Speaker 34: everybody keeps looking to the future. But you know, the

1501
01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:01,919
Speaker 34: way I look at it is he signed that contract.

1502
01:15:01,960 --> 01:15:06,240
Speaker 34: If he's healthy, he's playing that's the way you have

1503
01:15:06,320 --> 01:15:07,720
Speaker 34: to look at it. I mean he could get hurt

1504
01:15:07,760 --> 01:15:10,680
Speaker 34: outside of football and ruin his career the same way

1505
01:15:10,720 --> 01:15:12,600
Speaker 34: he could slip on ice. He could actually cut a

1506
01:15:12,640 --> 01:15:15,960
Speaker 34: finger off making food. So I mean he signed a

1507
01:15:16,040 --> 01:15:19,120
Speaker 34: contract that said he was in an NFL quarterback Okay.

1508
01:15:19,400 --> 01:15:21,360
Speaker 3: I mean we're not gonna win the Marconi this year?

1509
01:15:21,520 --> 01:15:23,320
Speaker 3: Does that mean we just don't work the last three

1510
01:15:23,320 --> 01:15:25,240
Speaker 3: weeks of the season somewhat argue.

1511
01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:30,679
Speaker 22: Hello, friends, and welcome to deep thoughts with Uncle Ronnie. Hello,

1512
01:15:32,200 --> 01:15:36,960
Speaker 22: Wes is a mess, But fear not. The Jisel is back.

1513
01:15:38,080 --> 01:15:43,479
Speaker 22: Oh and Quinn Hewers better fear him. The Bengals defense

1514
01:15:43,960 --> 01:15:44,599
Speaker 22: is sewers.

1515
01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:48,839
Speaker 3: Ooh, Bengals defense is Sewers.

1516
01:15:49,160 --> 01:15:49,360
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1517
01:15:49,360 --> 01:15:53,200
Speaker 35: I'm surprised the offense played too a song ASO left

1518
01:15:53,280 --> 01:15:57,400
Speaker 35: over that much money in the first place. You know,

1519
01:15:58,520 --> 01:16:02,000
Speaker 35: I know they're gonna throw to h and a thousand

1520
01:16:02,160 --> 01:16:03,040
Speaker 35: times Sunday.

1521
01:16:03,160 --> 01:16:03,599
Speaker 3: Oh yeah.

1522
01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:06,080
Speaker 1: Do you think the Bengals.

1523
01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:10,400
Speaker 35: Defensive coordinator and linebackers we'll be able to figure that out?

1524
01:16:11,160 --> 01:16:16,840
Speaker 3: Let's hope. So I'm not confident, yeah, that they will

1525
01:16:16,880 --> 01:16:19,519
Speaker 3: figure that out. Tua turned the ball over.

1526
01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:24,479
Speaker 28: Tony Austin Hei from out healthy here. My toes are

1527
01:16:24,560 --> 01:16:29,320
Speaker 28: finally defrosted some Sunday's game feeling better. Work has also

1528
01:16:29,439 --> 01:16:32,000
Speaker 28: slowed down for me, so I can now call in more,

1529
01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:35,080
Speaker 28: leave a talkback. Really excited. I miss you all, miss Tony,

1554

1555
01:17:51,320 --> 01:17:55,400

01:17:55,439 --> 01:17:57,960
Speaker 4: out one year Austin it wasn't actually meatballs. It was

1557

1558
01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:01,439
Speaker 4: big loop.

1559
01:18:02,400 --> 01:18:04,840
Speaker 3: You didn't know that whole time. Nope, because you would

1560
01:18:04,880 --> 01:18:07,479

1562
01:18:09,400 --> 01:18:09,840

Speaker 5: Like this is good.

1564
01:18:12,120 --> 01:18:13,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, now you don't eat it anymore, do you?

1565
01:18:13,840 --> 01:18:14,040
Speaker 5: Nope?

1566
01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:18,320
Speaker 3: They make separate meatballs. Venison is delicious. They make they

1567
01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:22,680
Speaker 3: make separate meatballs. You are a child, and you need

1568
01:18:23,280 --> 01:18:26,040
Speaker 3: some serious uh. I hope you donate your brain to

1569
01:18:26,120 --> 01:18:28,120
Speaker 3: science when it's all said and done. I really do.

1570
01:18:29,040 --> 01:18:29,160
Speaker 5: Uh.

1571
01:18:30,320 --> 01:18:33,120
Speaker 3: I don't know that we had like traditions. I guess

1572
01:18:33,400 --> 01:18:36,800
Speaker 3: Christmas morning my dad would always make pancakes. He makes

1573
01:18:36,840 --> 01:18:40,240
Speaker 3: the best pancakes. So I think the last couple of

1574
01:18:40,320 --> 01:18:42,800
Speaker 3: Christmases or whatever, I've been by myself. So I've like

1575
01:18:43,000 --> 01:18:47,280
Speaker 3: tried to make his pancakes on Christmas morning, So I

1576
01:18:47,360 --> 01:18:49,320
Speaker 3: guess that's the only one I can think of.

1577
01:18:49,600 --> 01:18:53,879
Speaker 26: Okay, Hey, guys, Steven Montgomery, regarding the defensive end situation,

1578
01:18:54,400 --> 01:18:56,519
Speaker 26: I would actually offer a sign a three or four

1579
01:18:56,600 --> 01:19:00,520
Speaker 26: year extension, maybe forty five million, somewhere around the neighborhood

1580
01:19:00,560 --> 01:19:02,720
Speaker 26: of fifteen per. I think he's going to bring a

1581
01:19:02,760 --> 01:19:04,640
Speaker 26: lot more than ten on the open market if you

1582
01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:07,920
Speaker 26: look at his pressure win rate, his flexibility of position

1583
01:19:08,000 --> 01:19:10,200
Speaker 26: on which side he plays on, and the one thing

1584
01:19:10,280 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 26: you know about him is he's a high motor, relentless guy,

1585
01:19:13,640 --> 01:19:16,840
Speaker 26: and he's come on each year when he's got more opportunities.

1586
01:19:18,280 --> 01:19:22,679
Speaker 36: Okay, I don't hate that at all. Okay, this is DJ.

1587
01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:27,760
Speaker 36: You know, just listening to Zach's conference there, you know

1588
01:19:27,880 --> 01:19:30,519
Speaker 36: he really went his tenures done with the Bengals, which

1589
01:19:30,600 --> 01:19:32,439
Speaker 36: can't come soon enough. He really needs to go into

1590
01:19:32,520 --> 01:19:35,479
Speaker 36: politics where you can just talk and talk and talk,

1591
01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:39,040
Speaker 36: not really say anything, and results don't matter. He is

1592
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:42,080
Speaker 36: perfectly set up for that because that is exactly what

1593
01:19:42,240 --> 01:19:42,960
Speaker 36: you get from him.

1594
01:19:43,680 --> 01:19:46,080
Speaker 3: Marvin was the same way. Yeah, a lot of coaches

1595
01:19:46,120 --> 01:19:47,480
Speaker 3: are good politicians.

1596
01:19:48,000 --> 01:19:49,920
Speaker 37: Hey, guys, Jeff in India. I mean, that's the best

1597
01:19:49,960 --> 01:19:52,960
Speaker 37: press conference I've heard in quite some time. And it's

1598
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:54,439
Speaker 37: time to turn up the heat on this.

1599
01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:55,120
Speaker 6: Damn guy.

1600
01:19:55,800 --> 01:19:58,439
Speaker 37: If you've got a contract to twenty twenty seven, then

1601
01:19:58,479 --> 01:20:00,559
Speaker 37: you're gonna get these type of questions when you're four

1602
01:20:00,680 --> 01:20:01,160
Speaker 37: and ten.

1603
01:20:02,840 --> 01:20:03,760
Speaker 6: It's ridiculous.

1604
01:20:04,640 --> 01:20:08,800
Speaker 37: Good on you, Trags and Rapine and Kelsey and Ben

1605
01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:11,000

01:20:11,840 --> 01:20:14,479

1613
01:20:36,840 --> 01:20:40,719

1614
01:20:41,000 --> 01:20:43,719
Speaker 38: the Reds were unable to sign because they're cheap.

1615

Speaker 5: For more information, visit Reds dot com.

1616
01:20:46,880 --> 01:20:48,920
Speaker 3: Thank you. That would be tough for Duke Tobin if

1617
01:20:48,920 --> 01:20:51,320
Speaker 3: you've got to talk to the media every day, yep, yep.

1618
01:20:51,840 --> 01:20:54,120
Speaker 27: Haven't we ended the last three or four years on

1619
01:20:54,240 --> 01:20:57,639
Speaker 27: Wayne streaks of eight, five, and seven. You know, wins

1620
01:20:57,680 --> 01:21:00,600
Speaker 27: the last three years and it never carries over the

1621
01:21:00,840 --> 01:21:02,000
Speaker 27: momentum never carries.

1622
01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:02,639
Speaker 3: Let's do it again.

1623
01:21:02,720 --> 01:21:04,600
Speaker 27: You need to pick a different answer for that. And

1624
01:21:04,760 --> 01:21:07,080
Speaker 27: he's on double secret probation. That's why he doesn't have

1625
01:21:07,080 --> 01:21:08,320
Speaker 27: an answer for contract.

1626
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:10,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, let's do it again. I don't know, man.

1627
01:21:10,880 --> 01:21:13,800
Speaker 4: They turned five last year into seven this year. The

1628
01:21:13,840 --> 01:21:16,200
Speaker 4: hottest team down the stretch last year. But yeah, worked

1629
01:21:16,200 --> 01:21:19,960
Speaker 4: out this year, so let's do it again. Meaningless football.

1630
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:22,760
Speaker 29: I heard Mike in La earlier say that his old

1631
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:24,840
Speaker 29: man was ambi dextrous.

1632
01:21:25,479 --> 01:21:31,040
Speaker 3: Wow, man, that's awesome. I would give my right arm

1633
01:21:31,120 --> 01:21:34,080
Speaker 3: to be ambi dextrous. Well, then you couldn't be ambidextrous.

1634
01:21:35,960 --> 01:21:37,440
Speaker 29: This thing on blue.

1635
01:21:39,240 --> 01:21:39,559

Speaker 3: I'm thinking we're gonna do two.

1638
01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:51,160
Speaker 4: Okay, two quicker segments. Chad Brendle kicks off our number three. Uh,

1639
01:21:51,400 --> 01:21:53,840
Speaker 4: possibly some read and react still in our number three?

1640
01:21:54,040 --> 01:21:55,240
Speaker 4: All ahead? And a touch?

1641
01:21:55,439 --> 01:22:00,439
Speaker 3: Uh? Not a touch? What's the word? I'm think enough.

1642
01:22:01,080 --> 01:22:02,599
Speaker 3: I don't know what's going to do at the end

1643

Speaker 5: What do you?

1647
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:13,519
Speaker 4: I don't know what I'm looking for. He's gonna come

1648
01:22:13,560 --> 01:22:16,720
Speaker 4: in quickly and talk to us and then leave. When

1649
01:22:16,880 --> 01:22:18,120

01:22:18,280 --> 01:22:18,479
Speaker 10: Yeah?

1651

Speaker 8: UH.

1664
01:22:59,760 --> 01:23:03,240

Speaker 4: set up to be a very good one, starting with

1666
01:23:07,520 --> 01:23:11,479
Speaker 4: tomorrow night. Does the winner of rams Seahawks Austin in

1667
01:23:11,600 --> 01:23:16,320
Speaker 4: your opinion, have the front have the easiest path to

1668
01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:18,200
Speaker 4: the super Bowl, And I won't say easiest, but do

1669
01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:20,880
Speaker 4: they have your path to the super Bowl? Is it

1670
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:21,920
Speaker 4: one of those two teams?

1671
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:26,599
Speaker 3: Yeah? I think that whoever wins that, that's who you think.

1672
01:23:26,680 --> 01:23:29,600
Speaker 3: Whoever's the number one seed in the NFC, which is

1673
01:23:29,920 --> 01:23:31,920
Speaker 3: probably going to be one of those two teams. Yeah,

1674
01:23:33,240 --> 01:23:36,360
Speaker 3: I think would be my favorite in the NFC. That

1675
01:23:36,640 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 3: being said, who do you trust more?

1676
01:23:42,040 --> 01:23:42,320
Speaker 5: In that one?

1677
01:23:42,360 --> 01:23:43,759
Speaker 3: Tomorrow night? Seahawks?

1678
01:23:44,000 --> 01:23:49,080
Speaker 4: Fantastic defense, but it's Matthew Stafford and Sean McVay. It's

1679
01:23:49,200 --> 01:23:51,639
Speaker 4: essentially a Pickham Who do you trust more?

1680
01:23:52,000 --> 01:23:56,240
Speaker 3: Seattle right now? Really? Yeah, I've had the same philosophy

1681
01:23:56,360 --> 01:23:59,040
Speaker 3: for years now. Now, the Rams did sneak by the

1682
01:23:59,080 --> 01:24:04,519
Speaker 3: Seahawks the first time around. Yeah, home, short week primetime games. Yeah,

1683
01:24:04,600 --> 01:24:06,479
Speaker 3: in the division, I'm always going to go at the home.

1684
01:24:06,640 --> 01:24:09,000
Speaker 4: That was the game in which Sam Darnold threw four

1685
01:24:09,040 --> 01:24:11,840
Speaker 4: interceptions and they still and it was still a twenty

1686
01:24:11,880 --> 01:24:12,840
Speaker 4: one to nineteen game.

1687
01:24:13,080 --> 01:24:13,280
Speaker 5: Yeah.

1688
01:24:14,920 --> 01:24:18,200
Speaker 3: But Sean McVay just had a kid. Oh so there's

1689
01:24:18,320 --> 01:24:22,360
Speaker 3: that potential dad strength. Sure that gets brought into the equation.

1690
01:24:22,520 --> 01:24:26,960
Speaker 4: Now from Thursday to Saturday, and I'm just going Marquee

1691
01:24:27,040 --> 01:24:30,439
Speaker 4: games here, Packers Bears should be a doozy at Soldier

1692
01:24:30,520 --> 01:24:34,600
Speaker 4: Field Sunday. Every Bills game now is important because of

1693
01:24:34,680 --> 01:24:37,200
Speaker 4: the gap that they made up on the New England Patriots,

1694
01:24:37,560 --> 01:24:41,120
Speaker 4: and the Patriots have to travel to Baltimore on Sunday

1695
01:24:41,160 --> 01:24:45,760
Speaker 4: Night football. That's a massive game. Other games, you're looking

1696
01:24:45,800 --> 01:24:47,679
Speaker 4: at teams that are just trying to avoid a bad loss.

1697
01:24:47,840 --> 01:24:52,080
Speaker 4: Chargers against the Cowboys, who are essentially eliminated, Chiefs Titans.

1698
01:24:52,080 --> 01:24:57,639
Speaker 4: I could really care less. Buccaneers Panthers. Are we sleeping

1699
01:24:57,720 --> 01:25:00,479
Speaker 4: on this one at all? Both teams tied and division

1700
01:25:00,640 --> 01:25:03,960
Speaker 4: That's a spicy game. Yeah, they played twice down the

1701
01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:09,519
Speaker 4: stretch Buccaneers Panthers Sunday in the one o'clock window. How

1702
01:25:09,560 --> 01:25:14,080
Speaker 4: about the Jags Broncos. Broncos obviously riding high, but this

1703
01:25:14,240 --> 01:25:16,600
Speaker 4: Jaguar team Austin, you were on them early in the

1704
01:25:16,680 --> 01:25:19,240
Speaker 4: season under Liam Cohen. This is the most confident I

1705
01:25:19,280 --> 01:25:23,719
Speaker 4: think we've seen. Trevor Lawrence. I agree with that Steelers Lions,

1706
01:25:25,120 --> 01:25:27,080
Speaker 4: put up or shut up? Time for the Detroit Lions,

1707
01:25:29,240 --> 01:25:31,879
Speaker 4: as I mentioned, Patriots Ravens, and then Monday Night Football

1708
01:25:31,920 --> 01:25:35,200
Speaker 4: you get the Niners taking on Philip Rivers and the

1709
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:39,400
Speaker 4: Indianapolis Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium. It should be a

1710
01:25:39,560 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 4: fantastic and fun Week sixteen in the NFL College Football

1711
01:25:44,200 --> 01:25:47,400
Speaker 4: Playoff games. The first round also get underway Friday and Saturday.

Speaker 4: tonight there's a return happening. It's the return of Jisel

1726
01:26:48,720 --> 01:26:51,920
Speaker 4: James to the University of Cincinnati men's basketball program as

1727
01:26:51,920 --> 01:26:53,920
Speaker 4: they get ready to take on Alabama State tonight. They

1728
01:26:53,960 --> 01:26:57,760
Speaker 4: take on Clemson on Sunday. Let's talk some hoops. Let's

1729
01:26:57,800 --> 01:27:00,439

1730
01:27:00,920 --> 01:27:04,280
Speaker 4: with the man from Bearcat Journal himself, Chad Brendle. Nice

1731
01:27:04,360 --> 01:27:06,439
Speaker 4: enough to join us today, Chad, how are you doing.

1732
01:27:08,040 --> 01:27:10,880
Speaker 5: Good? It was Kean not available today or well?

1733
01:27:11,120 --> 01:27:13,880
Speaker 4: With news like this, Chad, you got to go right

1734
01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:17,080
Speaker 4: right to the top of the food chain. I feel like, okay, okay,

1735
01:27:18,840 --> 01:27:19,679
Speaker 4: you and I have spoke.

1736
01:27:19,760 --> 01:27:21,760
Speaker 3: We spoke about this on air last time.

1737
01:27:21,800 --> 01:27:25,000
Speaker 4: I think you filled in for Moegger about Gisel James

1738
01:27:25,160 --> 01:27:27,960
Speaker 4: just kind of being around, and you know, he's being

1739
01:27:28,040 --> 01:27:30,679
Speaker 4: showed on the jumbo tron and then all of a sudden,

1740
01:27:30,760 --> 01:27:33,719
Speaker 4: I flip on the game over the weekend at Georgia

1741
01:27:33,800 --> 01:27:37,360
Speaker 4: and he traveled and he's there in Georgia with the team.

1742
01:27:37,439 --> 01:27:40,920
Speaker 4: And fast forward to today, we know now that Gigsel

1743
01:27:41,000 --> 01:27:45,320
Speaker 4: James is back on the roster. What has changed from

1744
01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:48,479
Speaker 4: the statements we've heard all along from west Miller that

1745
01:27:48,560 --> 01:27:50,559
Speaker 4: he's not going to be on the team this year,

1746
01:27:50,600 --> 01:27:52,800
Speaker 4: but he's around the team. What has changed from then

1747
01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:53,280
Speaker 4: to now?

1748
01:27:55,680 --> 01:27:59,719
Speaker 5: Well, then they were either undefeated or had a close

1749
01:27:59,840 --> 01:28:04,400
Speaker 5: lot off against Louisville, and now they're six and four

1750
01:28:05,200 --> 01:28:08,800
Speaker 5: and about to go into the Big twelve. So I mean,

1751
01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:12,160
Speaker 5: you know, we can get into this a million different ways.

1752
01:28:12,240 --> 01:28:18,080
Speaker 5: And I can tell you there's concerns about Dalen Cells

1753
01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:21,479
Speaker 5: team's back, and Tyler McKinley's knee, and with Jaleen Haynes

1754
01:28:21,600 --> 01:28:24,960
Speaker 5: already out there, they're getting pretty low on numbers. And

1755
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:29,600
Speaker 5: you know those things are to an extent true, but

1756
01:28:31,400 --> 01:28:34,400
Speaker 5: they need a spark, they need they better find something

1757
01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:39,080
Speaker 5: because what they're doing isn't working. And on January third,

1758
01:28:39,200 --> 01:28:43,679
Speaker 5: you host Houston, and if you're going to figure it out,

1759
01:28:43,960 --> 01:28:47,200
Speaker 5: the time to figure it out. That clock is ticking.

1760
01:28:48,280 --> 01:28:51,240
Speaker 5: Gizzl is that practice. He's been working with the team,

1761
01:28:51,479 --> 01:28:54,000
Speaker 5: So I guess you see if it works.

1762
01:28:54,520 --> 01:28:57,240
Speaker 4: So for me, it's one thing to say, Okay, Jizzle's

1763
01:28:57,280 --> 01:28:59,080
Speaker 4: back on the team. It's another thing to say, Okay,

1764
01:28:59,120 --> 01:29:02,920
Speaker 4: how does Jizzle impact this team. Kirk Crisa has not

1765
01:29:03,040 --> 01:29:05,720
Speaker 4: been what the Bearcats I think had hoped in any

1766
01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:08,599
Speaker 4: sense that he would be. I know Tillery has seen

1767
01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:11,920
Speaker 4: his minutes diminishing. You still have Daydae Thomas. We watched

1768
01:29:12,080 --> 01:29:15,200
Speaker 4: Day Day and Jizzle a lot last year. How does

1769
01:29:15,240 --> 01:29:16,880
Speaker 4: he help this team at the guard position?

1770
01:29:19,680 --> 01:29:23,479
Speaker 5: He gives you a high major guard. And look, there

1771
01:29:23,560 --> 01:29:29,880
Speaker 5: are reasons to be concerned about Jizzle's overall game. I

1772
01:29:30,000 --> 01:29:33,960
Speaker 5: talked about it a lot last year. He's inefficient. He

1773
01:29:34,080 --> 01:29:37,360
Speaker 5: takes a lot of tough twos, he doesn't shoot well

1774
01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:40,519
Speaker 5: from three, he doesn't get to the free throw line

1775
01:29:40,560 --> 01:29:44,400
Speaker 5: a lot. For a team that's struggling in offensive efficiency.

1776
01:29:45,240 --> 01:29:49,560
Speaker 5: This isn't just a you know, plug this guy in

1777
01:29:49,840 --> 01:29:52,720
Speaker 5: and all of a sudden the offense is going to

1778
01:29:52,760 --> 01:29:56,559
Speaker 5: be fixed in a lot of ways. But he's also

1779
01:29:56,600 --> 01:29:58,160
Speaker 5: a guy that scores a lot of points for a

1780
01:29:58,200 --> 01:30:02,400
Speaker 5: team that struggles to score points. Yeah, so some of

1781
01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:04,800
Speaker 5: it you're going to have to And look, they've lived

1782
01:30:04,840 --> 01:30:06,439
Speaker 5: with it for two years. They're going to live with

1783
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:09,600
Speaker 5: it for the rest of this year. It looks like, like,

1784
01:30:10,520 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 5: you know that there are some shortcomings, some things that

1785
01:30:14,520 --> 01:30:19,920
Speaker 5: he doesn't exactly you know, do that jump off the page.

1786
01:30:20,720 --> 01:30:22,800
Speaker 5: But you can put the ball in his hands and

1787
01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,880
Speaker 5: you're pretty confident that he's going to be able to

1788
01:30:26,920 --> 01:30:29,640
Speaker 5: put points on the board. It might be you know,

1789
01:30:29,920 --> 01:30:35,360
Speaker 5: four of thirteen putting points on the board, but you're

1790
01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:37,920
Speaker 5: adding a guy that can get you fifteen to twenty

1791
01:30:38,040 --> 01:30:42,000
Speaker 5: points on any given night for a team that's struggling

1792
01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:45,240
Speaker 5: to score like that, that's the most obvious thing. I think.

1793
01:30:46,040 --> 01:30:48,560
Speaker 4: Is there a confidence issue in the team anytime a

1794
01:30:48,600 --> 01:30:50,679
Speaker 4: team struggles early in the season, I would I would

1795
01:30:50,720 --> 01:30:54,519
Speaker 4: believe you you worry about confidence. Does this bearcat roster

1796
01:30:54,920 --> 01:30:57,000
Speaker 4: at this point in your opinion have a confidence issue?

1797
01:30:59,320 --> 01:31:03,080
Speaker 5: I think that your game would say absolutely, because you know,

1798
01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:08,280
Speaker 5: at the early points of that game, things looked really good.

1799
01:31:09,360 --> 01:31:12,599
Speaker 5: But then you know they held up, like they got

1800
01:31:12,680 --> 01:31:15,560
Speaker 5: out to that nine point lead, and they held it

1801
01:31:15,680 --> 01:31:18,439
Speaker 5: for a while, and you're looking at it and going, Okay,

1802
01:31:18,960 --> 01:31:21,200
Speaker 5: we didn't see like Louisville. They got up early, and

1803
01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:24,720
Speaker 5: then Louisville erased that deficit in the blank of an eye, right,

1804
01:31:26,320 --> 01:31:29,639
Speaker 5: But then the problem started and Georgia started to get

1805
01:31:29,800 --> 01:31:33,599
Speaker 5: going a little bit, and Cincinnati didn't have any answers,

1806
01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:36,120
Speaker 5: and then as you got through the second half that

1807
01:31:36,280 --> 01:31:40,679
Speaker 5: progressively got worse. That tells me there's a confidence issue.

1808
01:31:40,720 --> 01:31:45,280
Speaker 5: That tells me that they don't have anything that they

1809
01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:49,479
Speaker 5: really believe. Then to stop the bleeding, you know, I

1810
01:31:49,520 --> 01:31:51,280
Speaker 5: think there was a point in the second half they

1811
01:31:51,320 --> 01:31:55,200
Speaker 5: were down seven, they had gotten a couple stops, and

1812
01:31:55,320 --> 01:32:00,519
Speaker 5: if the offense had been functional and productive, you can

1813
01:32:00,560 --> 01:32:03,000
Speaker 5: get right back in that game. And that's It's an

1814
01:32:03,000 --> 01:32:05,280
Speaker 5: okay Georgia team. I think they're going to be fine

1815
01:32:05,320 --> 01:32:08,120
Speaker 5: in the SEC, but I don't think they're going to

1816
01:32:08,160 --> 01:32:11,599
Speaker 5: be competing for an SEC championship like that big team.

1817
01:32:11,720 --> 01:32:14,120
Speaker 5: You should be able to get back in that game

1818
01:32:14,840 --> 01:32:19,120
Speaker 5: and at worst, you know, battle to the end. And

1819
01:32:19,320 --> 01:32:22,160
Speaker 5: instead they had a couple possessions go the wrong way

1820
01:32:22,920 --> 01:32:25,080
Speaker 5: and next thing you know, it's thirteen, then it's fifteen,

1821
01:32:25,120 --> 01:32:31,000
Speaker 5: then it's seventeen. And that tells me, Yeah, they're searching

1822
01:32:31,240 --> 01:32:36,599
Speaker 5: for what do we do when you know, when things

1823
01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:39,000
Speaker 5: stop working, how do we get out of it? How

1824
01:32:39,040 --> 01:32:41,639
Speaker 5: do we get back on track? And I think we've

1825
01:32:41,720 --> 01:32:44,800
Speaker 5: seen that in all these games that they've lost or

1826
01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:47,720
Speaker 5: the games that they haven't played well in. They play

1827
01:32:47,800 --> 01:32:50,479
Speaker 5: well in fits and starts. They'll play well for five

1828
01:32:50,640 --> 01:32:53,559
Speaker 5: seven minute stretches, and then there'll be a ten minute

1829
01:32:53,560 --> 01:32:55,880
Speaker 5: stretch that it looked like, you know, they all just

1830
01:32:56,000 --> 01:33:00,200
Speaker 5: met each other in June. And that's not conduced the

1831
01:33:00,280 --> 01:33:01,200
Speaker 5: winning at a high level?

1832
01:33:02,479 --> 01:33:02,640
Speaker 14: Is it?

1833
01:33:03,960 --> 01:33:06,760
Speaker 4: And I get you turn back to Jisel and maybe

1834
01:33:06,760 --> 01:33:10,080
Speaker 4: you find a spark there. You know this team better

1835
01:33:10,160 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 4: than anyone, Chad is Is it too late for this

1836
01:33:13,200 --> 01:33:15,599
Speaker 4: team to turn this season around? When you look at

1837
01:33:16,520 --> 01:33:22,080
Speaker 4: I'm watching a lot of basketball. Arizona BYU Houston. You

1838
01:33:22,120 --> 01:33:23,640
Speaker 4: can go up and down the list, teams in the

1839
01:33:23,680 --> 01:33:25,800
Speaker 4: top ten, teams in the top twenty five, teams that

1840
01:33:25,840 --> 01:33:29,440
Speaker 4: are just outside the top twenty five. You watch basketball,

1841
01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:32,120
Speaker 4: You've watched this team, and I know they have talented players.

1842
01:33:32,280 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 4: Is it too late for this team to turn it around?

1843
01:33:35,000 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 4: Or do you see a path in which they could

1844
01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:39,200
Speaker 4: get things turned around for this season?

1845
01:33:41,720 --> 01:33:44,000
Speaker 5: I have a hard time seeing it, if we're being honest.

1846
01:33:44,120 --> 01:33:48,200
Speaker 5: I mean, you've got six or seven teams at the

1847
01:33:48,280 --> 01:33:51,240
Speaker 5: top of this league. I just don't how do they

1848
01:33:51,320 --> 01:33:58,720
Speaker 5: beat Houston. Arizona BYU Texas Tech. Yeah, you know, you

1849
01:33:58,840 --> 01:34:01,880
Speaker 5: go to Kansas, you go down the list, and I

1850
01:34:02,200 --> 01:34:05,320
Speaker 5: just I look at those games and I go out

1851
01:34:05,360 --> 01:34:09,559
Speaker 5: of Cincinnati. Win a couple to get back in this thing.

1852
01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:11,240
Speaker 5: They're gonna have to get a couple of big scalps.

1853
01:34:11,240 --> 01:34:13,920
Speaker 5: You're you're gonna have to have a couple You start

1854
01:34:13,960 --> 01:34:16,519
Speaker 5: at six and four, you're in a hole. You got

1855
01:34:16,600 --> 01:34:22,160
Speaker 5: a ton of grant with Yeah, a good cleansing team

1856
01:34:22,200 --> 01:34:25,240
Speaker 5: that's well coached, and they're gonna make you pay for

1857
01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:29,600
Speaker 5: for mistakes that you make. So yeah, like you have

1858
01:34:29,800 --> 01:34:33,320
Speaker 5: to be Clemson Sunday. Don't feel great about that. Let's

1859
01:34:33,360 --> 01:34:39,719
Speaker 5: not talk, Let's not look over. I was, hey, let's

1860
01:34:39,800 --> 01:34:44,160
Speaker 5: come was leading Duke yesterday for a good portion of

1861
01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 5: that game. That's the after Christmas, the dreaded after Christmas

1862
01:34:48,240 --> 01:34:52,360
Speaker 5: game that teams have always kind of looked flat in.

1863
01:34:53,160 --> 01:34:58,920
Speaker 5: So yeah, I don't The path is uh, the path

1864
01:34:59,000 --> 01:35:04,639
Speaker 5: has grown over with tickets and thorns and you better

1865
01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:07,760
Speaker 5: have a real good machete to slice your way through it.

1866
01:35:07,880 --> 01:35:10,960
Speaker 5: Because I mean, we knew the tough at the top

1867
01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:14,720
Speaker 5: of this league was going to be tough, but they

1868
01:35:15,080 --> 01:35:19,240
Speaker 5: can they beat an improved Oklahoma State team. Uh, you

1869
01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:24,040
Speaker 5: know there's a couple in that group that boy, if

1870
01:35:24,120 --> 01:35:27,000
Speaker 5: you lose one or two of those games, sure, then

1871
01:35:27,040 --> 01:35:31,280
Speaker 5: you're you're swimming even farther upstream. And do you feel

1872
01:35:31,320 --> 01:35:33,559
Speaker 5: good about this team going on the road and beating

1873
01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:35,120
Speaker 5: anybody at.

1874
01:35:35,040 --> 01:35:35,720
Speaker 39: This point in time?

1875
01:35:35,800 --> 01:35:39,760
Speaker 5: So that includes Clemson and nine Big Twelve games so

1876
01:35:41,040 --> 01:35:43,880
Speaker 5: it doesn't feel great, Tony. And you know this is

1877
01:35:44,160 --> 01:35:46,800
Speaker 5: probably why Gisel James is coming back tonight, if we're

1878
01:35:46,840 --> 01:35:47,880
Speaker 5: being completely honest.

1879
01:35:48,640 --> 01:35:51,920
Speaker 4: Outside of that, the football squad is preparing for a

1880
01:35:52,080 --> 01:35:55,439
Speaker 4: bowl game and they're doing so with a very depleted

1881
01:35:55,560 --> 01:35:59,599
Speaker 4: now secondary. They don't have their cornerback coach anymore. He's gone.

1882
01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:04,759
Speaker 4: Brendan Soaresby has left. How difficult is this game itself

1883
01:36:04,840 --> 01:36:09,519
Speaker 4: going to beach at against the Naval Academy who will

1884
01:36:09,600 --> 01:36:12,040
Speaker 4: not be resting players. No, players are opting out of

1885
01:36:12,080 --> 01:36:14,640
Speaker 4: the bowl game for Navy, a team that leads the

1886
01:36:14,720 --> 01:36:18,439
Speaker 4: nation in rushing yards per game. How difficult One is

1887
01:36:18,560 --> 01:36:21,439
Speaker 4: the opponent for the bowl game, and two putting together

1888
01:36:21,479 --> 01:36:23,960
Speaker 4: the roster and preparing with players that are opting out

1889
01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:24,360
Speaker 4: and leaving.

1890
01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:30,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, look, if you're in Cincinnati situation where

1891
01:36:30,400 --> 01:36:33,080
Speaker 5: you got guys preparing for the draft and guys entering

1892
01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:36,600
Speaker 5: the transfer portal and you're going into bowl season, the

1893
01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:40,360
Speaker 5: last thing you want to see is Navy pop up

1894
01:36:40,400 --> 01:36:44,000
Speaker 5: as your opponent. Yeah. They are going to be exactly

1895
01:36:44,080 --> 01:36:47,680
Speaker 5: who they are that they are going to play one

1896
01:36:47,760 --> 01:36:50,200
Speaker 5: thousand miles an hour. They are going to play a

1897
01:36:50,240 --> 01:36:53,400
Speaker 5: brand of football that I mean there's what like four

1898
01:36:53,479 --> 01:36:57,080
Speaker 5: guys on this roster that didn't even really play when

1899
01:36:57,160 --> 01:37:01,360
Speaker 5: Cincinnati left the American Athletic Conference. They don't know Navy,

1900
01:37:01,479 --> 01:37:04,479
Speaker 5: and what did we see. If you go back to

1901
01:37:05,080 --> 01:37:09,800
Speaker 5: when Navy entered the AAC early, when you're first getting

1902
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:12,679
Speaker 5: a look at Navy in the triple option, it's really difficult.

1903
01:37:13,320 --> 01:37:16,640
Speaker 5: I mean, they rushed for what eight thousand yards in

1904
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:20,680
Speaker 5: that one game in twenty seventeen or whatever it was.

1905
01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:26,160
Speaker 5: And then as UCU saw them more and more and more,

1906
01:37:26,320 --> 01:37:28,160
Speaker 5: the team became familiar with it and they were able

1907
01:37:28,200 --> 01:37:31,080
Speaker 5: to shut them down. But in a one off That's

1908
01:37:31,160 --> 01:37:34,599
Speaker 5: the danger of playing Navy is it's new. It's something

1909
01:37:34,600 --> 01:37:37,840
Speaker 5: you're not used to. It's a style you're not accustomed to,

1910
01:37:38,479 --> 01:37:45,720
Speaker 5: and they just are unrelenting in attacking you offensively. Their

1911
01:37:45,800 --> 01:37:50,120
Speaker 5: defense is not great. But you're without Brendan Soursby, You're

1912
01:37:50,120 --> 01:37:52,920
Speaker 5: probably going to be without Tawie Walker and Havin Pryor

1913
01:37:54,640 --> 01:37:56,880
Speaker 5: your line is there. I think you're going to have

1914
01:37:56,960 --> 01:37:59,920
Speaker 5: most of your wide receivers, so there will be something,

1915
01:38:00,080 --> 01:38:04,160
Speaker 5: there will be something to fall back on, but boy,

1916
01:38:04,479 --> 01:38:07,200
Speaker 5: you're definitely not looking at one of the most efficient

1917
01:38:07,400 --> 01:38:11,880
Speaker 5: offenses in the country and Tony, how much did we

1918
01:38:11,960 --> 01:38:14,559
Speaker 5: talk about time of possession? Oh boy this year?

1919
01:38:14,680 --> 01:38:16,120
Speaker 3: Yes? Correct?

1920
01:38:16,800 --> 01:38:18,439
Speaker 5: What fifty to ten?

1921
01:38:18,800 --> 01:38:19,040
Speaker 3: Yep?

1922
01:38:19,360 --> 01:38:23,240
Speaker 5: On January third? Like, what's the record for what a

1923
01:38:23,360 --> 01:38:29,840
Speaker 5: team has possessed the ball? That part terrifies me.

1924
01:38:30,200 --> 01:38:34,280
Speaker 4: Yeah, without a doubt. And now the possessions, Chad become

1925
01:38:34,360 --> 01:38:36,479
Speaker 4: even more important. And you're going to be running possessions

1926
01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:40,720
Speaker 4: without Brendan Sorosby. I know we'll talk about the Bowl

1927
01:38:40,760 --> 01:38:44,920
Speaker 4: game with Samage Jones and Brady Lichtenberg. I would have

1928
01:38:45,160 --> 01:38:47,880
Speaker 4: to imagine that the answer for quarterback next year is

1929
01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:49,080
Speaker 4: not currently on this roster.

1930
01:38:51,560 --> 01:38:56,120
Speaker 5: I can't imagine that it is. Look, I'm sure Samage

1931
01:38:56,200 --> 01:38:58,040
Speaker 5: Jones is going to have a chance to compete for

1932
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:01,600
Speaker 5: the starting job. They had a bunch of money to

1933
01:39:01,640 --> 01:39:04,200
Speaker 5: pay Brendan Soresby. Do I think they're gonna go pay

1934
01:39:04,240 --> 01:39:06,479
Speaker 5: a quarterback what they were willing to pay Soresby. No,

1935
01:39:07,080 --> 01:39:09,640
Speaker 5: nor should you unless it's one of the you know,

1936
01:39:09,880 --> 01:39:12,439
Speaker 5: absolute top guys in this class. I don't think that's

1937
01:39:12,520 --> 01:39:15,880
Speaker 5: gonna happen. But you've got money to go get a

1938
01:39:15,920 --> 01:39:19,800
Speaker 5: starting quarterback, you have to go do that. You have

1939
01:39:20,000 --> 01:39:22,880
Speaker 5: to find a guy that you believe in and that

1940
01:39:23,000 --> 01:39:27,639
Speaker 5: fits your system, and that you think, I really think

1941
01:39:27,680 --> 01:39:31,519
Speaker 5: it's important in this era of college football that they

1942
01:39:31,640 --> 01:39:33,800
Speaker 5: do what they did with Brendan Sorosby. You find a

1943
01:39:33,880 --> 01:39:36,680
Speaker 5: little bit of a younger guy that you trust, and

1944
01:39:36,960 --> 01:39:39,599
Speaker 5: you've watched the tape and you think that you can

1945
01:39:39,680 --> 01:39:43,439
Speaker 5: get not just one, but hopefully at least two good

1946
01:39:43,520 --> 01:39:47,640
Speaker 5: years out of And that's that's what they're gonna be

1947
01:39:47,720 --> 01:39:48,040
Speaker 5: tasked with.

1948
01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:52,280
Speaker 4: How how difficult does the rebuild become? And I know

1949
01:39:52,640 --> 01:39:56,160
Speaker 4: we've had this conversation three years, five wins, seven wins,

1950
01:39:56,560 --> 01:39:58,280
Speaker 4: But if you look at this roster and and Keegan

1951
01:39:58,320 --> 01:40:01,360
Speaker 4: has pointed this out before, this roster has NFL talent.

1952
01:40:01,640 --> 01:40:03,719
Speaker 4: They've got a quarterback, they had a quarterback in Swersby

1953
01:40:03,720 --> 01:40:05,280
Speaker 4: who's going to go make a lot of money elsewhere

1954
01:40:05,280 --> 01:40:09,080
Speaker 4: at a high major school. Do you view this year

1955
01:40:09,160 --> 01:40:11,880
Speaker 4: as as a disappointment because on the outside, I think

1956
01:40:11,920 --> 01:40:13,120
Speaker 4: a lot of people at the start of the year

1957
01:40:13,120 --> 01:40:15,720
Speaker 4: would say, Okay, seven wins, I'll get on board with that.

1958
01:40:16,400 --> 01:40:18,280
Speaker 4: The way in which it happened, with the talent that

1959
01:40:18,360 --> 01:40:21,800
Speaker 4: this roster had, does seven now, looking back on it

1960
01:40:21,880 --> 01:40:23,080
Speaker 4: feel a little bit disappointing.

1961
01:40:24,920 --> 01:40:27,200
Speaker 5: It feels like a missed opportunity. I don't know that.

1962
01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:31,640
Speaker 5: It's it's we're in this world now where everything is

1963
01:40:31,880 --> 01:40:36,400
Speaker 5: like awesome or everybody has to be fired like that.

1964
01:40:36,560 --> 01:40:39,640
Speaker 5: There's no middle ground in sports anymore. I think the

1965
01:40:39,720 --> 01:40:43,640
Speaker 5: season was okay, but I think you missed your The

1966
01:40:44,000 --> 01:40:47,160
Speaker 5: window was as open as it was going to possibly get,

1967
01:40:48,280 --> 01:40:53,559
Speaker 5: especially at seven and one going into November and having

1968
01:40:53,600 --> 01:40:57,800
Speaker 5: a chance to compete all the way to the end

1969
01:40:58,560 --> 01:41:02,000
Speaker 5: for a spot in the conference schampionship game. And look,

1970
01:41:02,520 --> 01:41:07,519
Speaker 5: Utah beat them like Utah was clearly the superior team

1971
01:41:07,920 --> 01:41:08,519
Speaker 5: on that day.

1972
01:41:08,680 --> 01:41:09,080
Speaker 9: For sure.

1973
01:41:10,479 --> 01:41:16,160
Speaker 5: Arizona and BYU Cincinnati did not play well and were

1974
01:41:16,320 --> 01:41:21,120
Speaker 5: still within one score late in the fourth quarter. Yeah,

1975
01:41:22,479 --> 01:41:25,479
Speaker 5: you got the ball against Arizona down six with a

1976
01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:29,360
Speaker 5: chance to win the game. You've got DYU down six.

1977
01:41:29,520 --> 01:41:30,960
Speaker 5: If you get a stop, you're going to get the

1978
01:41:31,000 --> 01:41:32,639
Speaker 5: ball back and have a chance to win the game.

1979
01:41:33,479 --> 01:41:36,600
Speaker 5: And they didn't get it done in either of those situations.

1980
01:41:37,680 --> 01:41:41,200
Speaker 5: And then I think you could you could feel it, Tony.

1981
01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:44,080
Speaker 5: You were there, You would know better than me. They

1982
01:41:44,160 --> 01:41:48,560
Speaker 5: felt deflated against TCU because they were playing for the

1983
01:41:48,640 --> 01:41:53,080
Speaker 5: conference championship the entire way, and that was possible all

1984
01:41:53,120 --> 01:41:56,439
Speaker 5: the way through the end of the BYU game, and

1985
01:41:56,560 --> 01:41:58,639
Speaker 5: then it looked like kind of the wheels sell off

1986
01:41:59,600 --> 01:42:05,080
Speaker 5: in in Fort Worth. But I don't think that Arizona,

1987
01:42:05,200 --> 01:42:10,960
Speaker 5: by U or TCU were It didn't look like Utah,

1988
01:42:11,040 --> 01:42:14,920
Speaker 5: where Utah was just supremely talented. They were the better built,

1989
01:42:15,040 --> 01:42:20,480
Speaker 5: better constructed, better performing football team. You had three opportunities

1990
01:42:20,600 --> 01:42:23,320
Speaker 5: even just to get that one win, to get to

1991
01:42:23,439 --> 01:42:27,679
Speaker 5: eight and feel like this season was a big success

1992
01:42:28,560 --> 01:42:32,160
Speaker 5: at seven. Losing your last four now you're staring down

1993
01:42:32,240 --> 01:42:35,080
Speaker 5: the barrel of Navy where you might lose your last

1994
01:42:35,160 --> 01:42:39,120
Speaker 5: five again to end the season. It's hard to say

1995
01:42:39,160 --> 01:42:40,600
Speaker 5: that's anything but a disappointment.

1996
01:42:41,600 --> 01:42:44,680
Speaker 4: Without a doubt, it is a tough time right now

1997
01:42:44,720 --> 01:42:49,920

01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:37,800

Speaker 41: Thanks for choosing the great city of Montgomery?

2204
01:53:43,040 --> 01:53:47,160
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, I was calling, you know.

2205
01:53:47,479 --> 01:53:50,439
Speaker 41: The last three games of the Bengals. Obviously, draft position

2206
01:53:50,600 --> 01:53:52,760
Speaker 41: worries me. The thing that worries me the most is

2207
01:53:52,880 --> 01:53:56,040
Speaker 41: like last year where they used the last few games

2208
01:53:56,040 --> 01:53:59,240
Speaker 41: against bad quarterbacks as an excuse is to why Gino Stonus,

2209
01:53:59,280 --> 01:54:02,880
Speaker 41: that's a great safety and gonna improve he improves so

2210
01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,479
Speaker 41: much and this and that, and I feel like they're

2211
01:54:05,520 --> 01:54:09,200
Speaker 41: gonna probably use that same sentiment with some of their players.

2212
01:54:09,640 --> 01:54:14,759
Speaker 41: I would particularly like linebacker, corners, safety, Like the safeties

2213
01:54:14,800 --> 01:54:18,679
Speaker 41: are still there, obviously, with they need to They needed

2214
01:54:18,720 --> 01:54:21,120
Speaker 41: to overhaul both safeties, both linebackers.

2215
01:54:22,240 --> 01:54:22,320
Speaker 32: Uh.

2216
01:54:22,520 --> 01:54:25,479
Speaker 41: Defensive may actually looks a little better now that Miles

2217
01:54:25,600 --> 01:54:27,040
Speaker 41: Murphy is playing a little bit.

2218
01:54:26,960 --> 01:54:28,960
Speaker 14: Better, but.

2219
01:54:30,640 --> 01:54:32,800
Speaker 41: I'm really scared about these last couple of games, they're

2220
01:54:32,800 --> 01:54:35,000
Speaker 41: gonna use it. I mean they're playing against what quint

2221
01:54:35,120 --> 01:54:41,240
Speaker 41: viewers Jakobe Briston and uh and uh Dowers Sanders. Yeah,

2222
01:54:41,360 --> 01:54:44,400
Speaker 41: so I'm open both the day can make them look good.

2223
01:54:45,000 --> 01:54:48,560
Speaker 41: Uh they have career games because uh, they we really

2224
01:54:48,640 --> 01:54:51,280
Speaker 41: needed overhaul and they I feel like they use that

2225
01:54:51,360 --> 01:54:53,960
Speaker 41: as an excuse as to why they didn't make many

2226
01:54:54,080 --> 01:54:56,520
Speaker 41: changes except for a coordinator and just said that we

2227
01:54:56,560 --> 01:55:00,360
Speaker 41: need knew a new coordinator that obviously look at the

2228
01:55:00,440 --> 01:55:02,080
Speaker 41: coach to look at the Bengals and look how that

2229
01:55:02,160 --> 01:55:07,560
Speaker 41: turned out. So sure, the players on the field, it

2230
01:55:07,680 --> 01:55:11,480
Speaker 41: was what matters. And unfortunately they lack a lot of

2231
01:55:11,560 --> 01:55:15,080
Speaker 41: talent on defense, even though that they just drafted two

2232
01:55:15,120 --> 01:55:16,120
Speaker 41: young linebackers and a.

2233
01:55:16,120 --> 01:55:18,040
Speaker 10: Bad linebacker Jeb Yeah.

2234
01:55:18,440 --> 01:55:20,400
Speaker 41: So hopefully they can get better at evaluation too.

2235
01:55:20,640 --> 01:55:24,640
Speaker 4: So for sure, Brian, thank you man. Yes, sir, I

2236
01:55:24,680 --> 01:55:26,680
Speaker 4: think that's the big thing. You You can't allow the

2237
01:55:26,800 --> 01:55:29,160
Speaker 4: last three weeks to change what the majority of the

2238
01:55:29,200 --> 01:55:31,640
Speaker 4: season's been. And I think we got caught up in

2239
01:55:31,640 --> 01:55:33,760
Speaker 4: a little bit of that last year with the way

2240
01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:36,320
Speaker 4: they ended the stretch. And again you are it's quen

2241
01:55:36,360 --> 01:55:38,920
Speaker 4: you weres it's Jacoby Brissett and at Shador Sanders. That

2242
01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:42,120
Speaker 4: cannot change how bad this season has been. Brian and

2243
01:55:42,200 --> 01:55:42,760
Speaker 4: fort Thomas.

2244
01:55:42,840 --> 01:55:43,200
Speaker 3: What's up?

2245
01:55:44,840 --> 01:55:47,040
Speaker 42: Oh hey guys, how you guys going good?

2246
01:55:47,160 --> 01:55:48,840
Speaker 10: Good good?

2247
01:55:49,080 --> 01:55:51,800
Speaker 42: I was calling about that lovely press conference. I faced

2248
01:55:51,840 --> 01:55:53,640
Speaker 42: my book and I turned that on as just a

2249
01:55:54,360 --> 01:55:56,880
Speaker 42: just a breath of fresh air. I mean, we hit

2250
01:55:56,920 --> 01:55:58,280
Speaker 42: on all six draft picks.

2251
01:55:59,400 --> 01:56:02,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was, I was. I was confused by that comment.

2252
01:56:04,240 --> 01:56:07,240
Speaker 42: Yeah, the one I hasn't been active and he is active,

2253
01:56:07,320 --> 01:56:10,480
Speaker 42: he's he's lost. And the other guys that's been the

2254
01:56:10,560 --> 01:56:13,440
Speaker 42: worst defense, the bangles of a head and how many years.

2255
01:56:13,480 --> 01:56:15,280
Speaker 42: I mean, they were horrendous most of the year and

2256
01:56:15,320 --> 01:56:20,480
Speaker 42: it was largely part of that draft. I just come on, Zach, like,

2257
01:56:20,840 --> 01:56:22,720
Speaker 42: you hit it all and you're happy of the process

2258
01:56:22,760 --> 01:56:25,680
Speaker 42: when you haven't been selecting good players, and come on,

2259
01:56:26,000 --> 01:56:26,680
Speaker 42: give me a break.

2260
01:56:26,800 --> 01:56:28,520
Speaker 5: Act this is a joke.

2261
01:56:28,760 --> 01:56:31,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I just I don't think that that went over

2262
01:56:31,200 --> 01:56:33,680
Speaker 4: all that well. I'm completely in agreement. Brian, thank you

2263
01:56:33,760 --> 01:56:36,000
Speaker 4: for your phone call as well. Yeah, Austin, when he

2264
01:56:36,080 --> 01:56:37,920
Speaker 4: said that, I I kind of was taken back a

2265
01:56:37,960 --> 01:56:41,160
Speaker 4: little bit. I don't think all six picks have been

2266
01:56:41,240 --> 01:56:43,200
Speaker 4: hit and Ben Baby kind of following up with you know,

2267
01:56:43,280 --> 01:56:44,920
Speaker 4: do you use this time to get younger plays? He said,

2268
01:56:44,920 --> 01:56:47,760
Speaker 4: we played all six guys. Yeah, well there's more to

2269

2281
01:57:28,400 --> 01:57:31,080
Speaker 39: did something well, it was a scrimmage, but he did

2282
01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:33,880
Speaker 39: something that I still can't I still have never seen

2283
01:57:33,880 --> 01:57:34,520

Speaker 9: Chased him to his left.

2289
01:57:43,760 --> 01:57:46,600
Speaker 39: I'm thinking he's either running out of bound or bounds

2290
01:57:46,680 --> 01:57:49,080
Speaker 39: or I'm gonna plow him. The guy switches the ball

2291
01:57:49,440 --> 01:57:51,680
Speaker 39: and throws a twenty five yard completed.

2292
01:57:51,360 --> 01:57:52,440
Speaker 5: Pass with his left head.

2293
01:57:53,200 --> 01:57:53,920
Speaker 3: That's pretty good.

2294
01:57:53,920 --> 01:57:57,400
Speaker 39: I've seen that ever in my life. Now, whatever happened

2295
01:57:57,440 --> 01:57:57,800
Speaker 39: to Bubba?

2296
01:57:58,240 --> 01:57:58,360
Speaker 37: Now?

2297
01:57:58,560 --> 01:57:59,360
Speaker 41: It is so funny?

2298
01:57:59,560 --> 01:58:02,880
Speaker 39: Is I found out? When I saw that name on

2299
01:58:03,040 --> 01:58:06,120
Speaker 39: the UC's roster. I was like, there's no way that

2300
01:58:06,280 --> 01:58:08,720
Speaker 39: can't be his kids, And that's actually his kid.

2301
01:58:08,920 --> 01:58:09,160
Speaker 3: Yeah.

2302
01:58:09,760 --> 01:58:09,880
Speaker 5: Hey.

2303
01:58:09,920 --> 01:58:11,400
Speaker 39: Then one more little kid that.

2304
01:58:12,120 --> 01:58:15,680
Speaker 41: I am actually friends with, Keegan Nickoson's.

2305
01:58:15,120 --> 01:58:17,600
Speaker 10: Brother, and I figured this, that's my favor show.

2306
01:58:18,720 --> 01:58:19,840
Speaker 41: Corbin is his name.

2307
01:58:19,960 --> 01:58:23,520
Speaker 39: He was actually an electrician uh On, a Predis electrician

2308
01:58:23,560 --> 01:58:26,760
Speaker 39: that I worked with. And I figured this out because

2309
01:58:26,760 --> 01:58:28,640
Speaker 39: I kept saying his name going Keegan Nickoson.

2310
01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:31,920
Speaker 5: I was like, why he had name?

2311
01:58:32,000 --> 01:58:33,160
Speaker 39: And I was like, there's no way.

2312
01:58:33,440 --> 01:58:34,800
Speaker 5: So I actually asked Corbin.

2313
01:58:34,880 --> 01:58:37,560
Speaker 39: I was like, hey, man, I sitting my message on

2314

Speaker 6: Life is good. Zach Taylor. Zach Taylor making the show

01:59:51,800 --> 01:59:54,120
Speaker 6: easy for me to do. Life is good, you know,

2340
01:59:54,400 --> 01:59:57,280
Speaker 6: amid this period of darkness in Cincinnati sports, here you

2341
01:59:57,360 --> 02:00:00,760
Speaker 6: have this beacon of hope coming from Las Vegas, the

2342
02:00:00,840 --> 02:00:06,360
Speaker 6: New York Knicks winning the NBA Championship, avenging their finals

2343
02:00:06,400 --> 02:00:09,160
Speaker 6: loss to the San Antonio Spurs from twenty seven years

2344
02:00:09,200 --> 02:00:12,520
Speaker 6: ago or twenty six years ago, almost twenty seven years ago,

2345
02:00:12,960 --> 02:00:16,680
Speaker 6: winning last night and not hanging a banner, because hang

2346
02:00:16,720 --> 02:00:18,120
Speaker 6: them all at the same time next fall.

2347
02:00:18,760 --> 02:00:22,160
Speaker 4: That's the thing for me, not hanging the banner that

2348
02:00:22,320 --> 02:00:24,440
Speaker 4: tells me that there are bigger goals ahead of this team.

2349
02:00:24,600 --> 02:00:27,080
Speaker 4: We'll enjoy this one, yeah, but we're not gonna sit

2350
02:00:27,120 --> 02:00:30,600
Speaker 4: back and celebrate this and we're not hanging n banners.

2351
02:00:30,640 --> 02:00:33,800
Speaker 4: We're not hanging NBA Cup banners. It's championship or bus

2352
02:00:33,880 --> 02:00:34,520
Speaker 4: for this knixt time.

2353
02:00:34,720 --> 02:00:38,360
Speaker 6: It's like when we got out our Halloween decorations, I

2354
02:00:38,480 --> 02:00:40,880
Speaker 6: also pulled out the Christmas decorations. Sure right, I'm not

2355
02:00:40,960 --> 02:00:42,920
Speaker 6: gonna kind of did both at the same time. Right,

2356
02:00:43,000 --> 02:00:46,240
Speaker 6: talk at the Halloween stuff. I know, why go out

2357
02:00:46,280 --> 02:00:48,360
Speaker 6: of my way to put up the Halloween stuff if

2358
02:00:48,400 --> 02:00:50,040
Speaker 6: I'm just gonna have to go back and put up

2359
02:00:50,040 --> 02:00:51,600
Speaker 6: the Christmas stuff. So I sort of put them both

2360
02:00:51,640 --> 02:00:56,320
Speaker 6: up together. Same principal applies for the NBA Cup banner

2361
02:00:56,440 --> 02:00:59,240
Speaker 6: and possibly an NBA championship banner.

2362
02:00:59,280 --> 02:01:01,920
Speaker 3: For the NBA Cup and the title in the same year.

2363
02:01:02,120 --> 02:01:04,640
Speaker 3: Never determines what banners go up because I know that,

2364
02:01:04,760 --> 02:01:07,760
Speaker 3: you know, Billy Joel has a banner, Harry Styles has

2365
02:01:07,800 --> 02:01:08,160
Speaker 3: a banner.

2366
02:01:08,240 --> 02:01:10,840
Speaker 6: If you go to Heritage Bank Center, they have a

2367
02:01:11,040 --> 02:01:14,560
Speaker 6: banner for fans for the Cyclones.

2368
02:01:14,440 --> 02:01:16,640
Speaker 3: That is pretty funny fans. I think Pete Rose has

2369
02:01:16,680 --> 02:01:19,640
Speaker 3: his number reaching he does, he does, he does often

2370
02:01:20,480 --> 02:01:25,880
Speaker 3: drop one time we just wanted to hack. So yes,

2371
02:01:26,080 --> 02:01:29,040
Speaker 3: NBA Cup Champions, Congratulations, thanks so much. What else you

2372
02:01:29,120 --> 02:01:29,920
Speaker 3: got coming up today?

2373
02:01:30,640 --> 02:01:32,960
Speaker 6: Things are not going well for the Bengals right now?

2374
02:01:33,320 --> 02:01:33,440
Speaker 8: Right?

2375
02:01:33,680 --> 02:01:36,800
Speaker 3: Would you agree? Why did Zach Taylor just make them worse?

2376
02:01:38,520 --> 02:01:41,200
Speaker 6: Like to me today, your job is to ensure that

2377
02:01:41,320 --> 02:01:44,240
Speaker 6: we're not making it worse, and Zach Taylor just made

2378
02:01:44,240 --> 02:01:47,560
Speaker 6: it worse. Like they can't do the easy stuff.

2379
02:01:47,560 --> 02:01:49,480
Speaker 3: They can the contract thing.

2380
02:01:49,840 --> 02:01:52,200
Speaker 6: Just hey, look, I'm signed for two more years. Don't

2381
02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:53,800
Speaker 6: really want to talk about it. I hope I'm here

2382
02:01:53,880 --> 02:01:57,640
Speaker 6: for the rest of my career. Like why now this?

2383
02:01:57,920 --> 02:02:00,200
Speaker 6: The problem is Zach Taylor is the spokesperson and for

2384
02:02:00,320 --> 02:02:00,959
Speaker 6: this franchise.

2385
02:02:01,000 --> 02:02:03,280
Speaker 3: Mike Petralia pointed out many times today.

2386
02:02:03,080 --> 02:02:05,360
Speaker 6: I'm surprised Zach wasn't forced to answer questions about the

2387
02:02:05,600 --> 02:02:07,200
Speaker 6: snow not being blown off the seats.

2388
02:02:07,480 --> 02:02:09,080
Speaker 3: But there's what I want to get to today.

2389
02:02:09,240 --> 02:02:13,280
Speaker 6: Why make things worse? Why Zach had to know those

2390
02:02:13,400 --> 02:02:16,840
Speaker 6: questions were coming, he had to have Why make things

2391
02:02:16,920 --> 02:02:19,560
Speaker 6: worse by being a jerk? And by the way, just

2392
02:02:19,680 --> 02:02:22,840
Speaker 6: so and I'll talk about this today as well, so

2393
02:02:23,160 --> 02:02:25,560
Speaker 6: I'm not accused of just, you know, taking random shots.

2394
02:02:25,560 --> 02:02:29,480
Speaker 6: To Zach Taylor, his question about the twenty nineteen Dolphins game, awesome.

2395
02:02:30,080 --> 02:02:32,480
Speaker 6: I do not expect a head coach to talk about

2396
02:02:32,520 --> 02:02:35,120
Speaker 6: the bright side of losing. I thought those were great

2397
02:02:35,160 --> 02:02:38,040
Speaker 6: answers talking about that game in Miami, which did change

2398
02:02:38,360 --> 02:02:41,920
Speaker 6: the trajectory the franchise because fortunately they lost. But like,

2399
02:02:42,000 --> 02:02:44,600
Speaker 6: when it comes to your contract, what is the harmon going? Look,

2400
02:02:45,040 --> 02:02:46,600
Speaker 6: I want the focus to be on this team in

2401
02:02:46,680 --> 02:02:48,880
Speaker 6: this game, but yeah, I got two more years. I

2402
02:02:49,000 --> 02:02:51,120
Speaker 6: hope I'm here for another twelve. Grateful to be here.

2403
02:02:51,280 --> 02:02:54,240
Speaker 6: We didn't announce it. I had my reasons, the organization

2404
02:02:54,360 --> 02:02:56,120
Speaker 6: had its reasons, but yeah, I'm here for two years.

2405
02:02:56,200 --> 02:02:58,360
Speaker 6: Can we talk about something else? And I think most

2406
02:02:58,480 --> 02:03:01,040
Speaker 6: there would have been like, okay, cool, let's talk about

2407
02:03:01,120 --> 02:03:05,080
Speaker 6: Quinn yours or Shamar Stewart or will come up with

2408
02:03:05,200 --> 02:03:07,040
Speaker 6: something interesting about this game? On some I had to

2409
02:03:07,120 --> 02:03:09,440
Speaker 6: fact check though. There was a point where one of

2410
02:03:09,480 --> 02:03:12,160
Speaker 6: his quotes was that they hit on all six picks

2411
02:03:12,200 --> 02:03:16,760
Speaker 6: this year. Are we confident in calling all six picks

2412
02:03:16,960 --> 02:03:22,120
Speaker 6: hits for this team? Shamar Stewart not sure. Barrett Carter, No,

2413
02:03:22,400 --> 02:03:25,360
Speaker 6: if that's a hit. I played a good game on

2414
02:03:25,560 --> 02:03:27,440
Speaker 6: had a good game, But I'm not sure.

2415
02:03:27,240 --> 02:03:29,600
Speaker 4: Anythink about Toz Brooks because now some A J. P.

2416
02:03:29,720 --> 02:03:30,760
Speaker 4: Ryan's getting the most carries.

2417
02:03:30,840 --> 02:03:32,520
Speaker 6: Yeah, Dylan farrishide o think is pretty good.

2418
02:03:32,600 --> 02:03:37,320
Speaker 4: All six picks hits. No, happy with the development, happy

2419
02:03:37,360 --> 02:03:41,720
Speaker 4: with the scouting department, complete alignment, Love's.

2420
02:03:41,480 --> 02:03:43,040
Speaker 3: Working side by side with Duke Tobin.

2421
02:03:43,240 --> 02:03:44,680
Speaker 6: I don't believe this complete alignment.

2422
02:03:45,040 --> 02:03:48,400
Speaker 3: I don't either, And you know, I said, Austin said.

2423
02:03:48,440 --> 02:03:51,040
Speaker 3: It might be my favorite Zach press conference. There's so

2424
02:03:51,200 --> 02:03:51,600
Speaker 3: much there.

2425
02:03:51,880 --> 02:03:55,280
Speaker 6: The best part was like the little smirk when it

2426
02:03:55,440 --> 02:03:57,000
Speaker 6: was brought up to him, like, well, we're not allowed

2427
02:03:57,040 --> 02:03:58,880
Speaker 6: to talk to ownership, and I just had this look

2428
02:03:58,920 --> 02:04:01,440
Speaker 6: on his face like I don't know if I admire that. Yeah,

2429
02:04:01,520 --> 02:04:03,360
Speaker 6: I don't know if I despise it. It's a lot

2430
02:04:03,880 --> 02:04:06,000
Speaker 6: like a lot, you know, it can't really do this

2431
02:04:06,240 --> 02:04:08,440
Speaker 6: justice on radio, but he sort of had that smirked

2432
02:04:08,480 --> 02:04:09,080
Speaker 6: on his face.

2433
02:04:09,640 --> 02:04:11,960
Speaker 4: How important is it not to allow whatever happens in

2434
02:04:12,000 --> 02:04:15,760
Speaker 4: the next three flood what has happened throughout the first fourteen.

2435
02:04:16,320 --> 02:04:20,680
Speaker 6: It's important because there is a track record go back

2436
02:04:20,760 --> 02:04:24,040
Speaker 6: to the Andy Dalton game where he eliminated their Ravens

2437
02:04:24,080 --> 02:04:27,040
Speaker 6: from the postseason on the fourth down toss to Tyler

2438
02:04:27,120 --> 02:04:29,960
Speaker 6: Boyd where the Bills fans, you know, gave a bunch

2439
02:04:30,000 --> 02:04:33,000
Speaker 6: of money to Andy Dalton's foundation, and Mike Brown sat

2440
02:04:33,040 --> 02:04:35,600
Speaker 6: on the bus and was like, you know, yeah, don't

2441
02:04:35,600 --> 02:04:38,120
Speaker 6: think we're that far away. Last year and Marvin Lewis,

2442
02:04:38,320 --> 02:04:40,400
Speaker 6: who was gone, was suddenly not gone.

2443
02:04:40,960 --> 02:04:43,200
Speaker 4: So yeah, I last year we did the same thing.

2444
02:04:43,400 --> 02:04:45,200
Speaker 4: We talked about how important was to win down the

2445
02:04:45,240 --> 02:04:47,880
Speaker 4: stretch and how that would carry over, and it didn't

2446
02:04:47,880 --> 02:04:48,280
Speaker 4: carry over.

2447
02:04:48,800 --> 02:04:49,000
Speaker 5: Yeah.

2448
02:04:49,080 --> 02:04:52,800
Speaker 6: Look, I think these games are important. Shamar Stewart's gonna play, dude,

2449
02:04:52,800 --> 02:04:54,680
Speaker 6: show me something. I think these games are important for

2450
02:04:54,720 --> 02:04:56,760
Speaker 6: certain players and you can learn a little bit more

2451
02:04:56,760 --> 02:05:00,080
Speaker 6: about them. But if they win these three games and

2452
02:05:00,200 --> 02:05:01,040
Speaker 6: your takeaway is.

2453
02:05:01,600 --> 02:05:02,520
Speaker 3: Here, we go, We're good.

2454
02:05:02,560 --> 02:05:05,280
Speaker 6: We don't need to just take the off season off

2455
02:05:05,360 --> 02:05:07,360
Speaker 6: kind of like you did last year. Whatever Airbnb you

2456
02:05:07,440 --> 02:05:10,480
Speaker 6: rented last offseason again, rend it again and take the

2457
02:05:10,520 --> 02:05:14,520
Speaker 6: coaching staff with you. No, I think number one, I

2458
02:05:14,600 --> 02:05:18,200
Speaker 6: want DJ Turner to solidify the season that he has had.

2459
02:05:18,240 --> 02:05:20,200
Speaker 6: I want to see more from Miles Murphy because the

2460
02:05:20,280 --> 02:05:22,840
Speaker 6: recent glimpses have been very encouraged. Make a decision on Joseph,

2461
02:05:23,160 --> 02:05:26,240
Speaker 6: very encouraging. Make a decision on Joseph, Osai, keep Joe

2462
02:05:26,320 --> 02:05:30,840
Speaker 6: Burrow healthy. There are play the younger safeties and see

2463
02:05:30,880 --> 02:05:34,040
Speaker 6: if you have something there. These games aren't meaningless in

2464
02:05:34,120 --> 02:05:38,280
Speaker 6: that regard, but I am not going to allow any

2465
02:05:38,320 --> 02:05:40,560
Speaker 6: amount of success they have over these last three games.

2466
02:05:40,600 --> 02:05:42,040
Speaker 6: And by the way, my guess is they win all three.

2467
02:05:42,080 --> 02:05:44,640
Speaker 6: They should are going up against quinn Ewers and the

2468
02:05:44,720 --> 02:05:47,120
Speaker 6: Cardinals and the Browns, they should win all three of

2469
02:05:47,160 --> 02:05:51,000
Speaker 6: these games. I cannot imagine any sane person would walk

2470
02:05:51,000 --> 02:05:53,840
Speaker 6: away from three victories and go, you know, yeah, what

2471
02:05:53,960 --> 02:05:56,280
Speaker 6: if only the season were twenty games, this would be

2472
02:05:56,320 --> 02:05:58,480
Speaker 6: a playoff team, and then you wouldn't want to play him,

2473
02:05:58,480 --> 02:05:58,720
Speaker 6: would you?

2474
02:05:58,880 --> 02:05:59,960
Speaker 3: No, nobody wants to play.

2475
02:06:00,720 --> 02:06:02,720
Speaker 6: Nobody is going to play because they're not good enough.

2476
02:06:02,800 --> 02:06:05,760
Speaker 4: When the committee sits down on Sunday, March fifteenth, yeah,

2477
02:06:06,040 --> 02:06:08,440
Speaker 4: and they are weighing, you see, and what seed to

2478
02:06:08,480 --> 02:06:10,960
Speaker 4: give them in the NCAA tournament. Do you have to

2479
02:06:11,040 --> 02:06:14,160
Speaker 4: start with the team they were before Gigsel James and

2480
02:06:14,280 --> 02:06:16,560
Speaker 4: the team they will be now going forward from tonight.

2481
02:06:16,760 --> 02:06:18,440
Speaker 6: I don't know that they'll say, well, you know what,

2482
02:06:18,600 --> 02:06:21,560
Speaker 6: let's wipe away that loss to Eastern Michigan. I'm glad

2483
02:06:21,600 --> 02:06:27,200
Speaker 6: Gigsel is back. If I would have said to you yesterday,

2484
02:06:27,720 --> 02:06:30,160
Speaker 6: you see, he can get a player tomorrow who, over

2485
02:06:30,280 --> 02:06:32,920
Speaker 6: his last thirteen games playing in the Big Twelve, average

2486
02:06:32,960 --> 02:06:34,840
Speaker 6: sixteen and a half points a game. What did you say,

2487
02:06:35,160 --> 02:06:38,560
Speaker 6: I'm in. That's what Gigsel James did deal. I've seen

2488
02:06:38,640 --> 02:06:42,720
Speaker 6: people suggest he could disrupt the chemistry. What chemistry?

2489
02:06:44,000 --> 02:06:46,480
Speaker 3: What Kirk Cras It was just a minus thirty plus minus.

2490
02:06:46,880 --> 02:06:49,080
Speaker 6: These these guys look like a whole bunch of dudes

2491
02:06:49,120 --> 02:06:52,520
Speaker 6: who just met each other, Like Gigsel's gonna disrupt the

2492
02:06:52,560 --> 02:06:55,640
Speaker 6: Cat Welcome back. There's a long list of former Bearcats

2493
02:06:56,000 --> 02:06:58,720
Speaker 6: and players from other programs who were told to leave

2494
02:06:59,040 --> 02:07:01,800
Speaker 6: or left on their own, and then we're eventually welcome back.

2495
02:07:02,120 --> 02:07:04,880
Speaker 6: So welcome back Jizsel. I hope he adds something. I

2496
02:07:04,920 --> 02:07:06,320
Speaker 6: don't know that it's going to be enough for me

2497
02:07:06,400 --> 02:07:08,640
Speaker 6: to think that they can beat Arizona, Houston, Texas, that

2498
02:07:08,760 --> 02:07:09,720
Speaker 6: guy with Dave et cetera.

2499
