College basketball 29 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: season is underway. It could be the Tony Mo Baseball Show. 30 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 3: You know, the Reds didn't play, but key Brian Hayes 31 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: won the Gold Glove most of the season with the 32 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:52,200 Speaker 3: Pittsburgh Pirates. Yes, but Game seven of the World Series 33 00:01:52,280 --> 00:01:56,280 Speaker 3: was one of the best ever. Yeah, experience. You gained 34 00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 3: my respect because you were keeping an eye in the 35 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 3: baseball game doing color for football game. My attention was 36 00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,760 Speaker 3: kind of fifty to fifty. Yeah, and a lot more 37 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: so on baseballs. The evening went on. But it is 38 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 3: the Tony and Mo Football Show. There's a Monday night 39 00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 3: football game tonight. You can watch a Twin Peaks as 40 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 3: well Arizona and Dallas. You'll get to see a bad 41 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:16,200 Speaker 3: Dallas defense that would look like the two thousand Baltimore 42 00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 3: Ravens compared to what the Bengals put on the field. Yep, 43 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 3: we've got the college football. We've got to get to 44 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:24,520 Speaker 3: a little bit later on. We're gonna air Zach Taylor later. 45 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,400 Speaker 3: I'm not starting the show as Zach Taylor. 46 00:02:26,480 --> 00:02:29,800 Speaker 4: I think that's the best move because I know people 47 00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 4: have already been lining the door because they want to 48 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 4: hear Zach early. But I think it's best to get 49 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 4: our thoughts out and then visit to what visit with 50 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 4: what Zach has to say. 51 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 3: We have a contractual obligation to air the Zach Taylor 52 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:47,239 Speaker 3: press conference in its entirety. I don't think the contract 53 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:48,960 Speaker 3: says we have to air it live. So I'm gonna 54 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 3: end the show with that, So stick around for Zach 55 00:02:51,840 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 3: Taylor right around five thirty five. The only word I 56 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,960 Speaker 3: can use Tony is embarrassment. The only word that I 57 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 3: think can apply to what the Bengals did yesterday. It's 58 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,200 Speaker 3: an embarrassment. It's an embarrassment to those players on defense, 59 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 3: It's an embarrassment to the coaching staff. It's an embarrassment 60 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:10,000 Speaker 3: to the entire organization. 61 00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think the time for anger has passed. Like 62 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 4: I was angry when it happened yesterday, but right after 63 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:21,680 Speaker 4: that you are, You're embarrassed as to what is happening 64 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 4: right now with this team. And it's embarrassing because we 65 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,080 Speaker 4: sat in Florence last week and I sat up on 66 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 4: the tay and I said, listen, I think that's the 67 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 4: worst loss of the Zach Taylor era. Like I thought 68 00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 4: the Jets game, everything that went into the game, the 69 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,880 Speaker 4: way fields had been criticized, top two receivers out, Sauce 70 00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 4: Gardner wasn't playing. I thought it was the worst loss 71 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 4: of the Zach Taylor era. And then yesterday I thought 72 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 4: to myself, how sad is it that I got to 73 00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,920 Speaker 4: enjoy the worst loss of the Zach Taylor era for 74 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 4: only one week and now there's a new leader in 75 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 4: the clubhouse. It is, I think, the most demoralizing thing 76 00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 4: to it. And I go to the demoralizing because what 77 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 4: happened is no longer surprising, like, think of everything that 78 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,840 Speaker 4: went into yesterday. You return a kickoff for a touchdown, 79 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 4: you block a field goal, you recover an on side 80 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 4: kick after scoring and getting the two point conversion. 81 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,400 Speaker 3: You get lucky on a pick six, that's not a 82 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:18,800 Speaker 3: pick six. 83 00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 4: Yes, you go down the field and score. And yet 84 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,679 Speaker 4: even after the Bengals scored, I looked at my brother 85 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:30,080 Speaker 4: and I said, they left too much time on the clock. 86 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 4: And last time I checked, it wasn't Tom Brady getting 87 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 4: ready to run on the field. It wasn't mahomes Lamar 88 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:37,640 Speaker 4: Jackson or any of the greats that have ever played 89 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:41,599 Speaker 4: the game. It was Caleb Williams. And at that point 90 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 4: I did not trust that the Bengals were going to 91 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:47,280 Speaker 4: win the game because of how much time was left. Now, 92 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 4: I thought my point spread was in good shape. 93 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 3: But it's demoralizing. No. All I kept thinking was when 94 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 3: Chicago scores, how many points will it be and how 95 00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 3: much time will be left? Ye, because you know, Zach 96 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 3: Taylor's on the sideline in a moment of ecstasy, big 97 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 3: old smile on his face, and I'm going, Zach, you 98 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,840 Speaker 3: better get your offense together because you're gonna give up points. 99 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:11,640 Speaker 3: Maybe it's just a field goal, you're gonna give up points. 100 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 3: Is there gonna be time for an offensive answer? That's 101 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:18,160 Speaker 3: how bad things have gotten. Yep. That's how bad things 102 00:05:18,200 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: have gotten when you are now and it's cliche to say, like, well, 103 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,600 Speaker 3: it's the Bengals, you expect the worst. I don't necessarily 104 00:05:24,600 --> 00:05:27,160 Speaker 3: feel that way. I feel that way about this particular 105 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 3: team's defense. You do not trust them to get a stop. 106 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,440 Speaker 3: And to me, that's the key word, because I think 107 00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,200 Speaker 3: a lot of us walked away from yesterday with the 108 00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:37,279 Speaker 3: same takeaway. That's the kind of game where head should 109 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,960 Speaker 3: roll right, that's the kind of game. Those are the 110 00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:45,159 Speaker 3: kind of games that cost people their jobs. I'm not 111 00:05:45,279 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 3: looking for firings or dismissals because of punishment. I think 112 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 3: that's how a lot of people frame it. I don't 113 00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: want punishment. I'm not interested in that. I'm interested in 114 00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 3: the lack of trust. I do not trust anybody in 115 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 3: a decision making capacity with this franchise. That's Duke Tobin, 116 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:06,840 Speaker 3: that's Zach Taylor, that's Al Golden, it's a lot of 117 00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:10,080 Speaker 3: the people above Duke Tobin. This has to get fixed. 118 00:06:10,160 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 3: It's not going to get fixed in time to salvage 119 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 3: this season. They're three and six. The personnel is what 120 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 3: it is. The next five games are really tough. I 121 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 3: want this fixed. While Joe Burrow is still here. I 122 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:23,680 Speaker 3: want this fixed while they have the most important component 123 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 3: in sports taken care of. I don't trust anybody, anybody 124 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:32,520 Speaker 3: front office, on the sideline, or on the field, to 125 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 3: get this fixed. 126 00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 4: How far away does the Super Bowl appearance and what 127 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:42,080 Speaker 4: coincided with that of the Joe Burrow tenure? Will always 128 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:46,480 Speaker 4: have a super Bowl window that feels decades ago. This 129 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:50,320 Speaker 4: team feels further away from a super Bowl than I 130 00:06:50,360 --> 00:06:53,159 Speaker 4: can imagine them ever been. That's how bad it is. 131 00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:58,400 Speaker 4: I watch a guy we've talked off. Joe Flacco over 132 00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 4: the course of his careers, made one hundred and eighty 133 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 4: million dollars in the NFL. He's also had deals with Rebok, 134 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,080 Speaker 4: Pizza Hut, with Nike at times. He's made over two 135 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,640 Speaker 4: hundred million dollars. He could easily walk away. He's won 136 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,760 Speaker 4: a Super Bowl, Yeah, won a Super Bowl MVP. He 137 00:07:13,760 --> 00:07:16,240 Speaker 4: could walk away and be done. Forty one years old. 138 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 4: The guy could not lift his arm after last week's game, 139 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:24,440 Speaker 4: fights through it this week again. How easy would it 140 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 4: be for him in a city and a team that 141 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 4: he just met, to be like, I'm not doing this 142 00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 4: to my body. 143 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: Yeah? 144 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 4: Instead, he puts his body on the line. He sacrifices 145 00:07:33,400 --> 00:07:37,360 Speaker 4: everything that he has those for four hundred and seventy yards, 146 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:42,440 Speaker 4: leads an improbable comeback, marches down the field twice, all 147 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 4: for what back to back weeks of this. I can't 148 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,119 Speaker 4: imagine what's going on in his mind right now. 149 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 3: I feel genuinely bad for him. 150 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,920 Speaker 4: You mentioned if they win the last two, he is 151 00:07:53,960 --> 00:07:56,080 Speaker 4: the number one story in the National Football. 152 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 3: League, the biggest story in sports. Correct forty years old, 153 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 3: traded five days days later, is playing yesterday, can't lift 154 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 3: his army, is enjoying a third career resurgence that nobody 155 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 3: saw coming. It's the best story in sports if they win. 156 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 3: If they win yesterday forty two to forty one, we're 157 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 3: probably still talking about the defense, but it's not the headline. 158 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 3: The headline is can you believe what Joe Flacco is doing. 159 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:25,200 Speaker 3: There's a part of me that thinks that Joe Burrow 160 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 3: must look at him and go, dude, Now, you know 161 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 3: how I felt last year because that's the recurring theme, 162 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:33,440 Speaker 3: right it's wasting high end quarterback play. They wasted an 163 00:08:33,480 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 3: MVP caliber season from Joe Burrow. They've wasted this resurgence 164 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:40,679 Speaker 3: from Joe Flacco that no one saw coming. They continue 165 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:43,200 Speaker 3: to waste, and so again the question for me is 166 00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,840 Speaker 3: how many more individual efforts are you going to waste? 167 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:50,840 Speaker 3: How many more supposedly championship window seasons are you going 168 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:55,240 Speaker 3: to waste? I do not trust anybody this. I'm tired 169 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 3: of the blame game. Let's spind the wheel of blame 170 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,120 Speaker 3: or let's hand out blame pie and who gets that's 171 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,880 Speaker 3: the biggest lies. I don't trust anybody. I do not 172 00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,760 Speaker 3: trust anybody in a decision making capacity to fix this. 173 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 4: With that being said, and again, I'll circle back to 174 00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:15,520 Speaker 4: the word demoralizing again. The demoralizing pieces is how the 175 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 4: roster has assembled. I mentioned with Austin in quick hits. 176 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 4: FC Cincinnati got boat raced last night. C Cincinnati gets 177 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,719 Speaker 4: to turn around and play to advance in the MLS playoffs. 178 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,520 Speaker 4: You see got beat but a comedy of airs. They 179 00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 4: turned the ball over, They were terrible on special teams, 180 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 4: situational awareness, that's not been who they've been all year. 181 00:09:36,440 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 4: But after a bye, U see gets to play for 182 00:09:40,400 --> 00:09:41,359 Speaker 4: a Big twelve. 183 00:09:41,160 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 3: Title by controlling their own destiny. 184 00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 4: Sure demoralizing factor with the Cincinnati Bengals, when or how 185 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,040 Speaker 4: is it going to get any better? They used three 186 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:55,880 Speaker 4: top selections on the defensive side of the ball, Demetrius Knight, 187 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: Barrett Carter, Shamar Stewart yesterday, all graded at a twenty 188 00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 4: eight or below. 189 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 3: According to Pro Football Focus. 190 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 4: So your idea, your path to attack. What was the 191 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 4: talking point after last year was you better not waste 192 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 4: another Joe Burrow year and you better not waste another 193 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,840 Speaker 4: Jamar Chase elite year. The talking point is not only 194 00:10:15,880 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 4: have they somehow been worse, there is no help on 195 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,400 Speaker 4: the horizon on the defensive side of the ball. Trey Hendrickson, Siya, 196 00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 4: Logan Wilson, Seya, your three rookies are combining to do. 197 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:28,080 Speaker 3: Zero for you. 198 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 4: That is so demoralizing that we are no longer talking 199 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,680 Speaker 4: about the worst defense in the NFL. We are actually 200 00:10:35,800 --> 00:10:38,680 Speaker 4: entering the conversation as to the defense that's on the 201 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 4: field right now for the Bengals, potentially being the worst 202 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 4: defense that has ever been fielded in the history of 203 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 4: the National Football League, the history of the NFL. However, 204 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:51,720 Speaker 4: story do you want to talk about? They are running 205 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,080 Speaker 4: on pace to finish as the worst defense the NFL. 206 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 3: Has ever seen. And that was your answer to the 207 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 3: year Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase had last year. The thing, right, 208 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 3: we talk about boy, it's obvious you got to move 209 00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 3: on from Duke Tobin, or it's obvious you've got to 210 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,840 Speaker 3: move on from Zach Taylor. Well it was obvious to 211 00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 3: anybody who was watching the Bengals needed a defensive overhaul 212 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:13,480 Speaker 3: and it didn't come. And you talk about those rookies, 213 00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 3: some will say, wait a minute, those guys are rookies. 214 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: Talking point talking point after the first waive or two 215 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:22,240 Speaker 3: a free agency was well, no, no, no, no, they're 216 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:25,080 Speaker 3: gonna use the draft to make the defense better and 217 00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 3: they're gonna get guys who can make an impact instantly. 218 00:11:28,080 --> 00:11:31,080 Speaker 3: Well that didn't happen either. Nothing they have tried has worked. 219 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:35,120 Speaker 3: When you have given people multiple tries to try something, 220 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 3: to try different things and they don't work, at some 221 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 3: point you go get new people. To me, the frustrating thing, though, 222 00:11:40,760 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 3: is as obvious as it might appear to you and I, 223 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:46,760 Speaker 3: or as obvious as it might appear as listening this 224 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:50,760 Speaker 3: morning to Adam Shine right, who does a national radio show. 225 00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:52,520 Speaker 3: I was listening before that to the people on on 226 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 3: sportsmen like and they're just like Yeah, clear house, clean house, 227 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 3: move on heads, got a roll like it. It's obvious. 228 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 3: But what's obvious to the rest of us is usually 229 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,400 Speaker 3: not obvious to the Cincinnati Bengals. It was obvious to 230 00:12:05,480 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 3: all of us at the end of last year, Tony, 231 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 3: you and I sat at the Florence location of Twin 232 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 3: Peaks the day after the season ended, and we talked 233 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 3: about a defensive overhaul and how the fact that you're 234 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 3: paying a handful of offensive players should not keep them 235 00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:21,199 Speaker 3: from executing a defensive overhaul. Why did we say that, 236 00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:24,240 Speaker 3: because it was obvious that you could not move forward 237 00:12:24,280 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 3: with all of the same pieces. And it was pretty obvious. 238 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 3: You know what, This team's draft track record recently is 239 00:12:29,600 --> 00:12:31,920 Speaker 3: kind of spotty. You've got to lean into free agency. 240 00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 3: You've got to try some things. They brought no one 241 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 3: into play safety. They they brought no one into play 242 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 3: corner aside from Orang Burks who's a special teams ace 243 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 3: and TJ. Slayton, who never makes a play. They did 244 00:12:42,520 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 3: nothing in free agency. And so right now, yes, it's 245 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 3: obvious they need a reset. What was obvious last year 246 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 3: to everybody else, and they didn't hit the reset button. 247 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've already done the exercises, talk about the draft, 248 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 4: and everyone's well, give them time, give them time. Tate 249 00:12:57,440 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 4: Rattlege is a starting guard for one of the best 250 00:12:59,280 --> 00:13:02,240 Speaker 4: offenses in foot ball at the Detroit Lions. He's grading 251 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 4: out right around I believe a seventy according to Pro 252 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 4: Football Focus. That would be higher than any grades on 253 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,199 Speaker 4: the current offensive line for the Bengals, and yet they 254 00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 4: passed him up in the second round. 255 00:13:12,160 --> 00:13:15,800 Speaker 3: MO. We probably spent so much time talking about. 256 00:13:15,600 --> 00:13:19,120 Speaker 4: Jihad Campbell leading up to the draft, sickening amount of time, 257 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 4: and they addressed linebacker, but they went Demetrius Knight and 258 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:27,440 Speaker 4: Barrett Carter when g Hodd Campbell was on the board, 259 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:31,840 Speaker 4: Gid Campbell an, he guesses Pro Football Focus eighty three 260 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 4: point one. That is not that's not just the highest 261 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 4: graded rookie defender. That's one of the highest graded defenders 262 00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 4: in football, rookie veteran, whoever that may be. And yet 263 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:49,160 Speaker 4: your talent evaluation said, well, we need linebackers, but our 264 00:13:49,200 --> 00:13:53,080 Speaker 4: evaluation says that Barrett Carter and Demetrius Knight are going 265 00:13:53,160 --> 00:13:56,440 Speaker 4: to pan out way more so, way more so than 266 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:57,319 Speaker 4: Jihad Campbell. 267 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:00,440 Speaker 3: Well, that's an indictment in itself. You know you hear rookies. 268 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 3: You got to give him time. Did you watch seventh 269 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,800 Speaker 3: round draft choice, A pick by the way that used 270 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,800 Speaker 3: to belong to the Bengals Kyle man Angai Insult to injury? 271 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,600 Speaker 3: I mean the Chicago Bears. Were they comfortable turning to 272 00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 3: a rookie and getting results when DeAndre Swift we found 273 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:17,280 Speaker 3: out he was out insult to injury? 274 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 4: That last year when the Bengals traded for Khalil Herbert, 275 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 4: and we all talked ourselves into oh, Khalil Herbert. 276 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,160 Speaker 3: I didn't talk myself Khalil Herbert. 277 00:14:27,280 --> 00:14:31,200 Speaker 4: The Bears took that pick and drafted that guy yesterday. 278 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 4: That's incredible to say, thank you, Cincinnati, We'll take that 279 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 4: seventh round pick. We'll use it on this guy that's 280 00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 4: gonna start and absolutely torture defense all day. 281 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 3: It was unbelievable. I mean, I thought they had Walter Payton. 282 00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:48,600 Speaker 3: I set it on social media like he's a bad matchup, terrible. 283 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 3: Part of that was an indictment against the Bengals. Part 284 00:14:50,960 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 3: of it was like, wait a minute, that dude's gonna 285 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:57,880 Speaker 3: be a problem. Seventh round pick from Rutgers. Yeah, okay, yeah. 286 00:14:57,920 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 4: Meanwhile, We've got third round pick from last year that 287 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:04,000 Speaker 4: either don't dress or won off the team. The picks 288 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:05,960 Speaker 4: from this year seem like a disaster. 289 00:15:06,120 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 3: Remember Dimitrius Night, he's old, so he's ready to play. 290 00:15:09,400 --> 00:15:11,560 Speaker 4: Marius Mims didn't have a great day yesterday. No, that 291 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:16,800 Speaker 4: twenty twenty four draft is looking scary. Orlando, we don't 292 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:19,200 Speaker 4: have time in today's show, Adam Now. 293 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 3: Adam Marchaltta did everything he could to not mock Orlando 294 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:22,840 Speaker 3: Brown on TV. 295 00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 4: Yes, we don't have the time in the show today 296 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:26,880 Speaker 4: to talk about Orlando Brown other than the fact that 297 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:30,040 Speaker 4: on the ball Joe Flacco fumbled. I've never seen an 298 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:33,480 Speaker 4: offensive lineman suffer bigger whiplash than when his head hit 299 00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:39,240 Speaker 4: the turf. He was thrown thrown onto the ground. That's 300 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:43,600 Speaker 4: your left tackle. Like we we could do a three 301 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,960 Speaker 4: hour show today and we could carry it over to 302 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:51,000 Speaker 4: the bye week condition next week of just missed signings 303 00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 4: and draft picks that this organization has been tied to. 304 00:15:54,200 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 4: And it's fine when you've got a quarterback and receiver 305 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 4: on rookie deals because you got more money to play 306 00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 4: with you spend. You can go get a team leader 307 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 4: like DJ Reader. You can tell everyone how it just 308 00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:07,720 Speaker 4: doesn't make financial sense. We can't pay Jesse Bates. Haven't 309 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,880 Speaker 4: replaced him yet team leader. But now this team is 310 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 4: void of team leaders. Well, you moved on from all 311 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 4: your team leaders and you tried to supplant them with 312 00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 4: the current roster. No one on this defense as a leader, 313 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 4: And I got news for you with how the inner 314 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,600 Speaker 4: workings of football go. If Geno Stone stood up in 315 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 4: a meeting and started lecturing guys about leadership and playing, 316 00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,280 Speaker 4: the guys would laugh at him because they would say, 317 00:16:30,320 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 4: turn on the tape and. 318 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 3: Watch yourself play. 319 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 4: They don't have anyone on this team that I think 320 00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 4: any of the other defenders respect, because everyone could just 321 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 4: point the finger who's playing at a good enough level 322 00:16:41,040 --> 00:16:42,600 Speaker 4: that you're gonna be like, all right, tell me what 323 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:45,240 Speaker 4: you think, tell me about my play when I'm watching 324 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 4: you play. 325 00:16:45,800 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 3: But that's the thing. From our perspective, there's no nuance 326 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 3: to talking about them defensively. Like I could ask you 327 00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: to put your defensive coordinator hat on and scheme up 328 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 3: with a way to make this better.

We have an obligation 364 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:59,000 Speaker 3: contractually to carry all of his press conferences. For a 365 00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,280 Speaker 3: number of reasons, I decided I wasn't going to carry 366 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 3: it at the top of the show live, so we're 367 00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 3: going to carry it for you in its entirety to 368 00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:08,000 Speaker 3: end this show. But I'll read for you a couple 369 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 3: of highlights, please, Zach Taylor says. And I'm reading this 370 00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,520 Speaker 3: from Jay Morrison of Bengals Talk dot Com. Zach says, 371 00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 3: no consideration of SKO of coaching staff changes, saying quote, 372 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,240 Speaker 3: these are good football coaches. I'm confident will make the 373 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 3: changes and find solutions. 374 00:19:24,800 --> 00:19:24,919 Speaker 2: Uh. 375 00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: Ben Baby elaborates. Ow Zach Taylor says about Golden, quote 376 00:19:29,119 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 3: I trust in him. No staff changes. 377 00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 4: So at the at the at the core of that quote, 378 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,680 Speaker 4: this defense has put historically embarrassing performances on the field 379 00:19:40,680 --> 00:19:44,560 Speaker 4: for back to back weeks. And the answer is status quo. 380 00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 4: The answer is for you. You mentioned it, fireable offenses 381 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 4: back to back weeks. One alone is a fireable offense 382 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,679 Speaker 4: back to back weeks of that, and the in the 383 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,280 Speaker 4: the comment going into the bye week is not We're 384 00:19:58,280 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 4: going to take time and evaluate everybody. Everyone has to 385 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 4: be better. It's they're good coaches, will figure it out. 386 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 3: I'm probably dramatically overly simplifying this, and it's not either 387 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,639 Speaker 3: or necessarily, but let's make it either or for a second, 388 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 3: it's either the coaching of the players. Yep. If you 389 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:19,800 Speaker 3: believe in Al Golden, then you don't believe in the players, 390 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,439 Speaker 3: and that's an indictment against the person who put this 391 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:23,399 Speaker 3: roster together. Well. 392 00:20:23,480 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 4: Jordan Battle said that the final play was a great 393 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,760 Speaker 4: call from Al Golden, but they were just misaligned who's 394 00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 4: fault is misalignment defensive coordinator? Like, are we like someone 395 00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:37,920 Speaker 4: called in today? Does Al Golden work during the week 396 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:38,359 Speaker 4: from home? 397 00:20:39,320 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 3: Like? Does he he hold meetings? Does he work on 398 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:42,639 Speaker 3: Sundays for it? Like? 399 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:44,840 Speaker 4: Does he do like zoom calls with players and then 400 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:47,440 Speaker 4: they do walk throughs and like how do you how 401 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 4: are you misaligned in a prevent defense? So that's the basic. 402 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,600 Speaker 3: Core of what you do sometimes and we would talk 403 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:59,320 Speaker 3: about this with Lou and Arumo. Sometimes the other team 404 00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 3: just makes a play, right and it's one on one. 405 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,520 Speaker 3: We see it with Jamar Chason t Higgins all the time. 406 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:06,320 Speaker 3: They just they make a play. It's football, right, the 407 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 3: other team's gonna win one on one battles. This doesn't 408 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 3: feel like that to me. This feels like guys either 409 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,280 Speaker 3: not being in the right place, guys not being given 410 00:21:16,320 --> 00:21:22,240 Speaker 3: the right information about the other team effort technique with 411 00:21:22,359 --> 00:21:26,720 Speaker 3: the mistackles, like none of this feels just like the 412 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,600 Speaker 3: Chicago Bears yesterday offensively had four different people throw a pass. 413 00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:34,240 Speaker 3: It felt like Ben Johnson was it was teasing him, 414 00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 3: was teasing playing with Al Golden. I mean it felt 415 00:21:38,280 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 3: like a school yard bully just pushing a little kid around, 416 00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:43,880 Speaker 3: but the krag Johnson. It felt like that was the 417 00:21:44,040 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 3: ultimate mismatch. 418 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 4: Yet every every every coaching game is a mismatch. 419 00:21:47,960 --> 00:21:50,840 Speaker 3: Right every no, no, no, no, no, no bad matchup match, bad 420 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 3: match up, bad matchup. 421 00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:54,360 Speaker 4: This week on the by that buys a tough opponent, 422 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 4: it takes a mental toll on everybody. 423 00:21:56,280 --> 00:21:58,240 Speaker 3: How many points will the buy score this week? That's 424 00:21:58,359 --> 00:21:59,320 Speaker 3: what people are wondering. 425 00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, tell me the last game that the Bengals went 426 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 4: into the you confidently thought we have the coaching advantage. 427 00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:11,960 Speaker 3: This year. Go back this year, go back previous years. 428 00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,119 Speaker 4: Has there been a game where you've won in and 429 00:22:14,160 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 4: said a roster might not line up, but we have 430 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:20,600 Speaker 4: the advantage in coaching. No, it's always We've got Burrow, 431 00:22:21,119 --> 00:22:23,280 Speaker 4: We've got the best player on the field. But the 432 00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:27,520 Speaker 4: issue is now that's being exposed to the d. Like 433 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 4: you mentioned, I'm not in defensive meetings. I've watched enough 434 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,639 Speaker 4: of Ben Johnson since he was the coordinator at Detroit 435 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 4: to know that he is a guy that will run 436 00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:42,240 Speaker 4: trick plays. Therefore, the first meeting of the week, as 437 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,600 Speaker 4: a defense you should be talking about, Hey, let's put 438 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:47,440 Speaker 4: it on our radar this week we're gonna talk about 439 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 4: it more. But this is a team and a coach 440 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,879 Speaker 4: that will run trick plays. And what happens the first 441 00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 4: fourth down inside the ten yard line? They run the 442 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,639 Speaker 4: Philly Special and it looks like no one from the 443 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 4: Bengals has ever watched, seen, or heard about the idea 444 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 4: of a trick play. 445 00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 3: Or they ran the double pass twice with the quarterback. 446 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,640 Speaker 4: The backup quarterback in the game, Tyson Badgett came into 447 00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:11,600 Speaker 4: the game and you would have thought, like, what's going 448 00:23:11,600 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 4: on here? They have two quarterbacks on the field. How 449 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,760 Speaker 4: can you do that? Well, maybe it's to have one 450 00:23:16,800 --> 00:23:20,000 Speaker 4: quarterback throw to the other. And it looked like they'd 451 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 4: never seen anything like that or prepared for anything like that. 452 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,000 Speaker 4: It's like defensive coordinators or offensive coordinators come in and 453 00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:27,439 Speaker 4: they talk. 454 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,280 Speaker 3: To each other like, oh you did that. Watch what 455 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 3: I do this? Wak watch this. 456 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 4: I'm gonna take a practice squad and a seventh round 457 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 4: draft pick. Watch what I do on the ground? Watch 458 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:41,520 Speaker 4: what I scheme up. Caleb Williams, You ever see him 459 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,080 Speaker 4: reverse out of the pocket before I'm gonna ask him 460 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:46,680 Speaker 4: to do it twelve times. I'm gonna have him spin 461 00:23:46,760 --> 00:23:49,399 Speaker 4: out of the pocket twelve times, and in those twelve times, 462 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:49,919 Speaker 4: no one will. 463 00:23:49,800 --> 00:23:51,440 Speaker 3: Make an adjustment. The Philly Special. 464 00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 4: Oh and I'm gonna do it. I'm not even gonna 465 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 4: have our best playmaker catch one pass, and I'm gonna 466 00:23:58,040 --> 00:24:00,520 Speaker 4: do with that my top running back watch this. I'm 467 00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:02,879 Speaker 4: gonna do it. What the Jets did, we got. We 468 00:24:02,920 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 4: gotta top that somehow. Cole Comet coming out of the game, Yeah, hey, Rome, 469 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 4: you're you're kind of out of this one. 470 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 3: Deandre's gonna sit. We've got a statement of our owner. 471 00:24:10,800 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 3: The Philly Special. I mean, it happened early in the game, 472 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:15,159 Speaker 3: and I thought, like Ben Johnson is just going to 473 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,159 Speaker 3: toy with Al Golden all day long. He's gonna run 474 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 3: an offensive play with ten guys on the field Like 475 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:26,840 Speaker 3: that to me, Like, all right, Al, they didn't exactly 476 00:24:26,880 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 3: give you a lot to work with, but you got 477 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:33,920 Speaker 3: to be able to achieve something. This is, as you outlined, statistically, 478 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,199 Speaker 3: on pace to be the worst offense in the history 479 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 3: of the NFL. I'm sorry, worst defense in the history 480 00:24:38,880 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 3: of the National Football League. Yep, that is unconscionable. It's unconscionable. 481 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:44,960 Speaker 4: It's one thing to be like, hey, They're the worst 482 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,560 Speaker 4: defense in the NFL this year, the history of the league. 483 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,680 Speaker 3: It's insane. You know what. Defensively they're not great, They're 484 00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:54,960 Speaker 3: gonna have to outscore people. Worst in the history of 485 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 3: the sport. 486 00:24:55,840 --> 00:24:58,240 Speaker 4: But like we talked about last week and we talked 487 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 4: about Aurady today, it's one thing to be bad, but 488 00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 4: if you look to the future, how is it any better? 489 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:08,600 Speaker 3: Here's my question? And who do they have to rally around? Nobody? 490 00:25:08,760 --> 00:25:10,199 Speaker 3: Here's what I want to know. The last time the 491 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 3: Bengals changed defensive coordinators during a season, they blew out 492 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 3: Tarrell Austin. Marvin Lewis took over defensive play calling duties. 493 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:25,520 Speaker 3: I wonder if Zach Taylor's discipline was defense, would they 494 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 3: have made a change? Like, is there a reluctance to 495 00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,239 Speaker 3: make a change because we don't want to ask one 496 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 3: of these position coaches to do it? And I'm a 497 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 3: head coach and I've never coached defense. It might be 498 00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 3: I get it, but it might It might be a 499 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:41,920 Speaker 3: really stupid question, but I but I wonder if if 500 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 3: if Zach Taylor's offense was as bad as Al Golden's 501 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:49,400 Speaker 3: defense is, would he have gotten rid of the offensive 502 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,560 Speaker 3: coordinator because he's an offensive coach. That Tony might be 503 00:25:52,560 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 3: a stupid question. I fair on that, h Jerry Montgomery. 504 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:00,199 Speaker 4: This is the worst D line in football right his 505 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,440 Speaker 4: track record, New England one of the worst defensive lines 506 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:05,880 Speaker 4: in football last year. What is New England doing now? 507 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:07,640 Speaker 3: Oh? Oh dude. 508 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 4: So if at very worst you say, okay, I was 509 00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:15,159 Speaker 4: gonna keep calling this, sorry, Jerry, Like someone has to 510 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:19,399 Speaker 4: take the fall here.

We'll keep like. 512 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:27,199 Speaker 4: The whole idea of status quo is so frustrating for me. 513 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:32,760 Speaker 3: It's just what I said this to my wife yesterday 514 00:26:32,800 --> 00:26:37,040 Speaker 3: because she's like, they gotta like clean house, right, And 515 00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 3: I said, here's the problem here on Sunday afternoon. The 516 00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:44,280 Speaker 3: idea of us waking up tomorrow and finding out they 517 00:26:44,320 --> 00:26:48,560 Speaker 3: made a change is shocking. It would be shocking today 518 00:26:49,200 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 3: if they fired Al Golden. Yep. It would be beyond 519 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 3: shocking if they let go of Duke Tobin. That's an 520 00:26:56,880 --> 00:27:00,040 Speaker 3: indictment against this franchise where the status quo is what 521 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:04,760 Speaker 3: you expect no matter how bad things Yep, all right, 522 00:27:04,760 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 3: we got to step Aside twenty four from four o'clock 523 00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,200 Speaker 3: twin Peaks, Westchester, Tony and Mo Football Show Sports headlines 524 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,440 Speaker 3: next on ESPN fifteen thirty. 525 00:27:13,520 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 5: Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty Traffic. 526 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:21,359 Speaker 7: From the UC Health Traffic Center.

Did we get the answer to 570 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:51,200 Speaker 3: the question you asked me during the break? I don't 571 00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 3: believe they had any left, but what I was interested in, 572 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:57,560 Speaker 3: so Cincinnati, you you were asking about timeouts? 573 00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:01,920 Speaker 4: Jordan Battle yesterday or today? He didn't talk to the 574 00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:06,640 Speaker 4: media yesterday, but today he said that Al Golden called 575 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,400 Speaker 4: the right play on the touchdown to end the game, 576 00:30:10,120 --> 00:30:11,920 Speaker 4: but they were quote misaligned. 577 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:16,880 Speaker 3: But then it's not the right play. So how. 578 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:21,320 Speaker 4: How can you be misaligned on the biggest play of 579 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 4: the game and then say that the right play was called? 580 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 4: Is that like this team the defense just isn't smart 581 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 4: enough to line up properly. Like this isn't Week two right, right? 582 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 3: Like Jordan Battle's been in the league for a few years. 583 00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:39,200 Speaker 4: Nine games into the season and on the biggest play 584 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 4: of the game that you need to make a play on, 585 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,520 Speaker 4: you are misaligned. 586 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:46,560 Speaker 3: So here's my question. Geno's Stone is not good in coverage. 587 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 3: He's not good at tackling. If you want to make 588 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,520 Speaker 3: the argument that Geno Stone should play, it lies with 589 00:30:53,600 --> 00:30:56,520 Speaker 3: the fact that he's in his sixth NFL season and 590 00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 3: at the very least he can line up and make 591 00:30:59,320 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 3: sure everybody else is lined up in the right place. 592 00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 3: He's been in good defenses. If Geno Stone can't do that, 593 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,960 Speaker 3: why is he on the team? I mean, by everybody's admission, 594 00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,959 Speaker 3: he didn't come here because he has great coverage skills, right, 595 00:31:13,080 --> 00:31:15,200 Speaker 3: he had that one interception of Joe Burrow, which he's 596 00:31:15,240 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 3: gotten paid a lot of money for. He's not good 597 00:31:17,640 --> 00:31:20,880 Speaker 3: at tackling. So if there's one reason why you would 598 00:31:20,920 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 3: have Geno Stone in the game, it's to at least 599 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,240 Speaker 3: make sure everyone's in the right spot, everyone's lined up. 600 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:28,720 Speaker 3: So how's so? Then, then why is Geno Stone on 601 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:29,520 Speaker 3: the team? Makes sense? 602 00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 4: I don't even know what to take seriously from what 603 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,160 Speaker 4: you hear of this team. It is like when we 604 00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 4: I use the term comedy of airs. It really is, 605 00:31:40,360 --> 00:31:45,280 Speaker 4: because when when things get so bad that things as 606 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 4: devastating us yesterday no longer surprise you. That's a bad 607 00:31:49,240 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 4: sign for a team. Like if that if that game 608 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:56,040 Speaker 4: yesterday happened in Kansas City Buffalo, the sports world would 609 00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:59,640 Speaker 4: be shocked, like, how did how did Buffalo let that 610 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 4: go right? How did Kansas City right? They would be shocked. 611 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 3: Why? 612 00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:09,120 Speaker 4: Because those teams play good football, They're fundamentally sound, they're 613 00:32:09,120 --> 00:32:11,520 Speaker 4: well coached, they have coaching advantages. So if at the 614 00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,719 Speaker 4: end of the game yesterday happened to one of those teams, 615 00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 4: we would be blown away. 616 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 3: Today. 617 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,200 Speaker 4: Instead it happens to Cincinnati, and what's the comment, Well, 618 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,800 Speaker 4: there they go again, just kind of who the Bengals are. 619 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:24,280 Speaker 4: That's how you're known now. 620 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 3: I feel bad for Charlie Jones. Yeah, because Charlie Jones 621 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:33,560 Speaker 3: brings the opening kickback ninety eight yards and that should 622 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:35,520 Speaker 3: be something we talk about today. It should be the 623 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 3: sort of play that you go back and look at, 624 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 3: there was a spark. Instead, Chicago scores the first time 625 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 3: they touched the football. I feel bad. I feel bad 626 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:47,240 Speaker 3: for Andre Yoshavas. Yeah, answered the bell. Andre Yoshavas and 627 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 3: you know he's taken criticism and he has deserved the criticism. 628 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:53,880 Speaker 3: And you know he caught a touchdown pass where he 629 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,840 Speaker 3: stepped out of bounds and then makes up for it 630 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 3: by catching what should have been a season saving touchdown. 631 00:32:59,280 --> 00:33:02,120 Speaker 3: Instead it becomes a footnote. And I feel bad for 632 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:06,200 Speaker 3: T Higgins who made a handful of the nicest catches 633 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:09,640 Speaker 3: you will ever see, high degree at difficulty, lot riding 634 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:14,240 Speaker 3: all three. Dude plays his hard out. It's a footnote. 635 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 3: Like I genuinely feel for some of these dudes who 636 00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 3: are doing everything they can to win, like Joe Flacco 637 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:27,640 Speaker 3: or T Higgins feel or dudes who are doing the 638 00:33:27,680 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 3: best to to really earn a spot on this team 639 00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:34,400 Speaker 3: or in this league, or doing their best to atone 640 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,520 Speaker 3: for previous mistakes. Like there are guys on offense and 641 00:33:37,560 --> 00:33:42,440 Speaker 3: special teams yesterday who are doing their part and it's wasted. 642 00:33:43,240 --> 00:33:46,480 Speaker 3: And to me, the single biggest word that comes to 643 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,360 Speaker 3: mind when I think of last year in this year 644 00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 3: is waste. The number of individual performances or careers, if 645 00:33:54,160 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 3: you want to put it that way, that the Bengals 646 00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,720 Speaker 3: as an organization are wasting. 647 00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:01,320 Speaker 4: Bad for Chase Brown, I do. Yeah, fourteen targets yesterday, 648 00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:03,040 Speaker 4: And one of the things we talked about you and 649 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:07,480 Speaker 4: I together last week and even yesterday. As much as 650 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 4: we love Jamar Chase targets, Joe Flacco has got to 651 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,359 Speaker 4: do a better job of spreading them out. Chase Brown 652 00:34:12,400 --> 00:34:15,400 Speaker 4: had fourteen Jamar Chase went over one hundred. See Higgins 653 00:34:15,440 --> 00:34:17,800 Speaker 4: went over one hundred. But how about meaningful plays of 654 00:34:17,840 --> 00:34:21,000 Speaker 4: the game. Tanner Hudson has a huge play, Mitchell Tinsley 655 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:24,640 Speaker 4: had a huge playoff, Nissey Bosh has a huge, huge play, 656 00:34:24,920 --> 00:34:27,560 Speaker 4: Chase Brown putting his body on the line in the 657 00:34:27,600 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 4: receiving game. Like all of that, much like the whole 658 00:34:32,320 --> 00:34:37,720 Speaker 4: season last year for not because you wasted all based 659 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:42,800 Speaker 4: on how bad your defense is and a series that 660 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:48,799 Speaker 4: we brushed over off air, the whole idea around what 661 00:34:49,000 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 4: happened with the McPherson field goal attempt. Yes, Like, so 662 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 4: you have the grounding penalty that moves you back. Originally 663 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 4: it looks like they're going to go for it fourth 664 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:01,360 Speaker 4: and three, and then it's a to get McPherson on 665 00:35:01,400 --> 00:35:04,840 Speaker 4: the field. The grounding made it forty fourth and thirteen thirteen. Yeah, 666 00:35:04,880 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 4: But then again with the way the offense is operating, Okay, 667 00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 4: try it, but then you get into the point where 668 00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,319 Speaker 4: like they flashed a Flacco and then the next time 669 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 4: you see anything on camera at McPherson, Yeah, and he 670 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:19,680 Speaker 4: hits a fifty four yarder and it comes up five 671 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 4: yards short. 672 00:35:21,440 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, he may have missed that kick rushed, but I 673 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:27,759 Speaker 3: don't know what it was. Rapeat tweeted about it in 674 00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:30,879 Speaker 3: real time where there's the grounding call, which I want 675 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 3: to talk about specifically. So it bumps them back thirteen yards, 676 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:38,160 Speaker 3: the game clock is stopped, it looks like they're going 677 00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:42,360 Speaker 3: for it. Then they change their mind, and then very hurriedly, 678 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 3: the field goal unit charges out out of the field 679 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,279 Speaker 3: and it feels like the entire operation was rushed. Now, 680 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,479 Speaker 3: it's a fifty four yard kick, even in this era. 681 00:35:50,520 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 3: It's not a gimme sure, but it was short and 682 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,520 Speaker 3: you couldn't help. But wonder had that been a little 683 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:58,520 Speaker 3: bit more organized, like them deciding okay, grounding, we lose 684 00:35:58,520 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 3: the down, fourth and thirteen, let's kick. You wonder if 685 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 3: that kick is successful. It didn't look well put together. 686 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 3: It didn't look well organized for a team coached by 687 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 3: a dude in his seventh NFL season. 688 00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's the thing, and credit where credits do. 689 00:36:13,000 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: The offense has played much better. Zach Taylor deserves credit 690 00:36:16,640 --> 00:36:18,880 Speaker 4: for that, Sure, Joe Flacco deserves a lot of credit. 691 00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:19,120 Speaker 3: For that too. 692 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 6: Sure. 693 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:23,520 Speaker 4: But the thing I keep going back to is lack 694 00:36:23,560 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 4: of hustle, lack of physicality, the mental airs, misalignments, the 695 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:32,920 Speaker 4: physical airs that play with Evan McPherson, all of that 696 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 4: is an indictment on him, the head coach. And it's 697 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:39,320 Speaker 4: also an indictment when you come out today and say 698 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:43,120 Speaker 4: we're good, Our coaches are good. They're working hard. We 699 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:44,799 Speaker 4: got to figure out some stuff. But no one's going 700 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:45,799 Speaker 4: to lose their job over this. 701 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,240 Speaker 3: You mentioned lack of hustle. Am I being a jerk? 702 00:36:49,400 --> 00:36:54,480 Speaker 3: If I wonder on the interception that we thought was 703 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:58,359 Speaker 3: going to be a pick six where Chase Brown main 704 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:02,120 Speaker 3: contact with Terrell Edmonds, Joe Flacco looked like the only 705 00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:03,000 Speaker 3: guy who ran back. 706 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:05,920 Speaker 4: He did, the only guy that wanted to try to 707 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,400 Speaker 4: make a tackle. And I get like, I get the 708 00:37:08,440 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 4: Jamar Chase thing because he knew he was interfered with, 709 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:12,640 Speaker 4: and he probably got up and saw the flag right away. Sure, 710 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,359 Speaker 4: but everyone else, what are we doing Am I being 711 00:37:15,400 --> 00:37:18,000 Speaker 4: a jerk from God thought? I'm in my mind, I'm like, oh, 712 00:37:18,040 --> 00:37:19,439 Speaker 4: he's gonna walk in the end zone and I see 713 00:37:19,440 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 4: Flacco the only one down there. 714 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:26,480 Speaker 3: I'm like, don't do anything. Just it was and maybe 715 00:37:26,520 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 3: maybe the other guy saw the flag, and so I 716 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:30,920 Speaker 3: I want to give them the benefit of it out. 717 00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,920 Speaker 3: But I've watched that play a thousand times. They showed 718 00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:35,480 Speaker 3: it a bunch of times because obviously there was a 719 00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 3: replay review, and I'm going, like, nobody, nobody else wanted 720 00:37:38,760 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 3: to go to length of the field. I just maybe 721 00:37:41,080 --> 00:37:43,160 Speaker 3: maybe I should give everybody the benefit of it out 722 00:37:43,160 --> 00:37:44,000 Speaker 3: that they saw the flag. 723 00:37:44,120 --> 00:37:46,880 Speaker 4: I just I keep going back to everything they did 724 00:37:47,000 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 4: well yesterday, then a lot again. Like you mentioned that 725 00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:54,840 Speaker 4: in today's football, you don't see kickoffs return for touchdowns. 726 00:37:55,200 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 4: You never seemingly see an onside kick recovered. They blocked 727 00:37:58,760 --> 00:37:59,280 Speaker 4: the kick. 728 00:37:59,320 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 3: The sidekick was recovered. It was fluky, Yes, their guy tight, 729 00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:06,080 Speaker 3: but they do get it. Yet it goes their way. 730 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:09,200 Speaker 4: Yes, Like there's just there were so many of those 731 00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 4: things that you're like, man, it just feels like things 732 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:14,919 Speaker 4: are gonna break for the Bengals. Finally, and even after 733 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:17,120 Speaker 4: the touchdown, p Ryan had a great return, they had 734 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:20,040 Speaker 4: good field position most of the day. Flaco's playing at 735 00:38:20,040 --> 00:38:23,839 Speaker 4: an elite level, and yet you still lose a football game. 736 00:38:24,719 --> 00:38:27,240 Speaker 4: I think one of the things you pointed out earlier 737 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:30,280 Speaker 4: that sticks with me from being in a locker room. 738 00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 4: If Jamar Chase and Chase Brown are willing to say 739 00:38:33,120 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 4: what they did to the media, how bad is it 740 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 4: when those doors are shut right? How bad is the 741 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:45,040 Speaker 4: tension in the locker room right now? That to me 742 00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:49,279 Speaker 4: is a scary, scary thought for a coach who we 743 00:38:49,320 --> 00:38:51,319 Speaker 4: have raved about what the whole time, and he's not 744 00:38:51,360 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 4: the greatest play caller, but the culture. 745 00:38:53,120 --> 00:38:55,919 Speaker 3: Well that's the thing, Like it's there even when things 746 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:58,760 Speaker 3: have gone poorly with Zach, You've never gotten the sense 747 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 3: things are gonna fracture. Number One, it certainly feels like 748 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 3: just what is coming out of the mouths of offensive 749 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:08,359 Speaker 3: players like that is a distinct possibility. Number Two, people 750 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 3: want to leave human nature like You're right, I mean, 751 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:14,919 Speaker 3: players are asking out like human nature in any organization, 752 00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:19,160 Speaker 3: these people are getting the job done. These people are not. 753 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:21,440 Speaker 3: And these people who are getting the job done are 754 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,880 Speaker 3: having to suffer for it. Invariably, there's gonna be conflict. 755 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:27,080 Speaker 3: There are human beings, doesn't mean they're bad guys. Doesn't 756 00:39:27,080 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 3: mean they're bad teammates. If I was Chase Brown, if 757 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:31,000 Speaker 3: I was Jamar Chase, if I was T Higgins, if 758 00:39:31,000 --> 00:39:33,160 Speaker 3: I was Joe Flacco, if I was any number of 759 00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:35,520 Speaker 3: those guys, hell yeah, I'd be outright pissed. 760 00:39:35,600 --> 00:39:37,400 Speaker 4: And you already hear it from Jamar right, He's like, 761 00:39:37,400 --> 00:39:38,640 Speaker 4: I ain't going to say anything else because I don't 762 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 4: want I'm talking about how I play. 763 00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:42,319 Speaker 3: Terren's going to be pissed off at us because we're 764 00:39:42,400 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 3: late for a break.

They lose the down, they lose 835 00:43:31,440 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 3: ten yards, They very hurriedly put the special teams unit 836 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,080 Speaker 3: on the field, Joe Flacco was terrific yesterday. He should 837 00:43:39,080 --> 00:43:42,359 Speaker 3: be the best story right now in the NFL. But unfortunately, 838 00:43:42,400 --> 00:43:45,480 Speaker 3: because of the Bengals ineptitude on defense, he has to 839 00:43:45,520 --> 00:43:48,120 Speaker 3: be perfect. Yeah, and while he was good, he wasn't perfect. 840 00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:53,080 Speaker 3: That intentional grounding play Chicago had the first option read 841 00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:56,320 Speaker 3: very well, a guy in his eighteen season can't commit 842 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:57,120 Speaker 3: intentional ground Now. 843 00:43:57,200 --> 00:44:01,280 Speaker 4: There, that's a tough one, but it's also the play 844 00:44:01,280 --> 00:44:05,320 Speaker 4: design itself. You were asking your receivers to be blockers. 845 00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:08,960 Speaker 4: T Higgins just has had a monster game, Yoshi vash 846 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,080 Speaker 4: has had a monster game, and on the biggest snap 847 00:44:12,120 --> 00:44:14,560 Speaker 4: of the game, they don't even run around. They're used 848 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 4: as blockers. And so what I think is that to 849 00:44:18,719 --> 00:44:21,000 Speaker 4: me if you watch Chase on the backside as well, 850 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 4: the only what you're calling that is to throw it 851 00:44:24,600 --> 00:44:28,240 Speaker 4: behind a line of scrimmage to block the blocks. 852 00:44:28,239 --> 00:44:28,759 Speaker 3: Didn't work. 853 00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:33,400 Speaker 4: Again, you asked your best assets to be blockers on 854 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 4: the most important play the game, and I get one 855 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:37,600 Speaker 4: to get the ball in Chase Brown's hands. But when 856 00:44:37,640 --> 00:44:40,160 Speaker 4: that's not available, there's really not a ton of options 857 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:44,360 Speaker 4: for Flaco. And I think, yes, veteran but also shoulders 858 00:44:44,400 --> 00:44:46,960 Speaker 4: in a bad way. You've been hit already, a bunch 859 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:49,680 Speaker 4: pressures wearing down on you. I think he was trying 860 00:44:49,680 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 4: to get it knowing that Chase was blocking originally to 861 00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:57,400 Speaker 4: get it there, but Chase adjusted when he saw Flacco 862 00:44:57,520 --> 00:44:59,359 Speaker 4: kind of look back and then goes deep. 863 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:01,560 Speaker 3: And I think that's what caused that issue. 864 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,600 Speaker 4: But I didn't love much as I liked what the 865 00:45:04,640 --> 00:45:06,399 Speaker 4: offense did, I didn't love the play call. To take 866 00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 4: your best assets out of the equation on a big 867 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:12,239 Speaker 4: down and distance, how about on the pick just a 868 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 4: tough trying to make something happen falling off your back leg. 869 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:19,279 Speaker 4: At that point, you probably feel pretty desperate throw you 870 00:45:19,320 --> 00:45:22,160 Speaker 4: can't make. You're not counting on the defender to go 871 00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:25,760 Speaker 4: through your wide receiver to make a play without having 872 00:45:25,840 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 4: to interfere with him. 873 00:45:27,800 --> 00:45:29,799 Speaker 3: Do you think interference should have been called there if 874 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:31,920 Speaker 3: you like, because there was We said before, the other 875 00:45:31,960 --> 00:45:34,440 Speaker 3: players didn't run down, maybe because they were looking. There 876 00:45:34,480 --> 00:45:36,239 Speaker 3: was no flag thrown, so that they would have been 877 00:45:36,239 --> 00:45:36,759 Speaker 3: looking for one. 878 00:45:36,840 --> 00:45:40,279 Speaker 4: By the letter of the rule, if you freeze the 879 00:45:40,320 --> 00:45:42,240 Speaker 4: play while the ball's in the air, it's pass interference. 880 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 4: The defenders their way early. It becomes such a bang 881 00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:47,600 Speaker 4: bang play that it's hard to call. You could have 882 00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:50,520 Speaker 4: called it either way, but it's a guy trying to 883 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:51,400 Speaker 4: make too much happen. 884 00:45:51,600 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 3: There was a Chicago Bears touchdown that was awarded after 885 00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 3: Zach Taylor went to review a play where DJ Moore 886 00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:01,359 Speaker 3: took a ball sixteen yards, tried to extend it over 887 00:46:01,400 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 3: the goal line, then lost control. Zach Taylor wanted it reviewed, 888 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,240 Speaker 3: and it was reviewed to see if it was fumbled, 889 00:46:08,280 --> 00:46:10,759 Speaker 3: and though it wasn't originally ruled a touchdown, then the 890 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 3: Bears were given a touchdown upon further review. I didn't 891 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:15,720 Speaker 3: have a problem with that. It's late in the game. 892 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,719 Speaker 3: Worst case, he's just going to hasten the inevitable, which 893 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:19,319 Speaker 3: is they're going to score. 894 00:46:19,360 --> 00:46:21,160 Speaker 4: Anyone to say if that balls put out the one, 895 00:46:22,160 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 4: the only thing that's gonna happen, they're going to score 896 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,800 Speaker 4: on the next play. I thought you'd take the gamble 897 00:46:26,160 --> 00:46:27,960 Speaker 4: and hope that maybe he did lose the ball early 898 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 4: and it's a touch back and you get possession. 899 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,160 Speaker 3: Then we're less than twenty four hours away from the 900 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 3: NFL's trade deadline. Oh. It has been reported Diana Russini 901 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:39,239 Speaker 3: of the Athletic reports that the Bengals are asking for 902 00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:41,879 Speaker 3: a first round pick in exchange for Trey Hendrickson, who, 903 00:46:41,880 --> 00:46:44,280 Speaker 3: by the way, talked today and what was the quote? 904 00:46:44,320 --> 00:46:46,520 Speaker 3: Be where your feet are, be where your feet are? 905 00:46:47,719 --> 00:46:49,640 Speaker 3: He says he's not sure if he's going to play 906 00:46:49,719 --> 00:46:51,879 Speaker 3: the Bengals next game. He's still called day to day. 907 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 3: Bengals obviously don't play for thirteen days. Can the Bengals 908 00:46:55,600 --> 00:46:57,800 Speaker 3: get a first round draft choice for Trey Hendrickson? 909 00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:57,920 Speaker 8: No? 910 00:46:59,080 --> 00:46:59,799 Speaker 3: What I would like to know. 911 00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,480 Speaker 4: I want to ask an agent, like if if you're 912 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:06,000 Speaker 4: representing a player and you want that player to be 913 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,839 Speaker 4: in a better scenario, and you're reading that the team 914 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,359 Speaker 4: wants a first rounder while you value your client, are 915 00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 4: you also coming back to the team like what are 916 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:18,200 Speaker 4: we doing? Like what are you not accepting here? Because 917 00:47:18,200 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 4: it's an agent, you probably want your your client. 918 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:20,920 Speaker 3: To be in a better situation. 919 00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:24,839 Speaker 4: Sure, I would imagine the call would go something along 920 00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:28,880 Speaker 4: the lines of hey, Duke or whoever, we're interested in 921 00:47:28,920 --> 00:47:31,839 Speaker 4: Trey Hendrickson, and then Duke would respond, well, we need 922 00:47:31,880 --> 00:47:34,400 Speaker 4: a first in return, and then I would presume to 923 00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,080 Speaker 4: hear a dial tone on the other end of the phone, 924 00:47:36,719 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 4: and then maybe another team picks back up and they say, well, okay, 925 00:47:39,320 --> 00:47:41,240 Speaker 4: Tray's off the table. What do you want for Logan Wilson? 926 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:43,680 Speaker 4: You know this guy's not playing for you. You don't 927 00:47:43,800 --> 00:47:46,239 Speaker 4: value him enough to put him on the field. You 928 00:47:46,239 --> 00:47:47,920 Speaker 4: want you want to take like a six round pick 929 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,640 Speaker 4: for him, and then Dukes probably like, ah, we see 930 00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,680 Speaker 4: him as a second or third And then there's a 931 00:47:51,719 --> 00:47:54,360 Speaker 4: dial tone and then that person calls back and they're like, 932 00:47:54,400 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 4: all right, it did work out with Trey or with Logan, 933 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 4: but you got a guy in mc kinley Jackson who 934 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 4: isn't active but he wants he wants out. Would you 935 00:48:05,160 --> 00:48:07,520 Speaker 4: take a seventh for him? And Duke would probably say 936 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 4: something along lines of well, we took him in the 937 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:11,200 Speaker 4: third so we couldn't let him go for anything less 938 00:48:11,239 --> 00:48:14,239 Speaker 4: than that, And then you hear a dial tone on 939 00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,480 Speaker 4: the other end. That's how I presume the trade deadline 940 00:48:16,520 --> 00:48:18,480 Speaker 4: will go over the next twenty four hours. And I 941 00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,400 Speaker 4: get like, you want to put value on your guys, 942 00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:23,920 Speaker 4: there needs to be realistic value. 943 00:48:24,040 --> 00:48:27,280 Speaker 3: You're three and six, Trey Hendrickson is not under contract. 944 00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:29,239 Speaker 3: He's not gonna be a part of your future. It 945 00:48:29,280 --> 00:48:32,400 Speaker 3: would not make sense to franchise tag him. You've already 946 00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 3: decided quite obviously, he's not a part of your future. 947 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,920 Speaker 4: I'll take anything, Yeah, I mean, we just watched the 948 00:48:37,960 --> 00:48:40,480 Speaker 4: team with one hundred and sixty nine rushing yards fro 949 00:48:40,520 --> 00:48:43,480 Speaker 4: him yesterday on a seventh round pick that you swapped. 950 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:44,760 Speaker 3: With the team last year. I'll take anything. 951 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:46,879 Speaker 4: Give me more picks and then give me someone else 952 00:48:46,920 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 4: to make the picks, and I'd be happy. 953 00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:51,040 Speaker 3: I'll take anything for any of those guys. Can I 954 00:48:51,080 --> 00:48:52,520 Speaker 3: give you a Genostone quote? Please? 955 00:48:52,600 --> 00:48:55,600 Speaker 4: How do you respond to this Geno Stone talking about 956 00:48:55,600 --> 00:48:58,920 Speaker 4: al Golden quote? It's not the scheme. It's definitely not 957 00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 4: the scheme. It's people doing their job. The scheme he 958 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:05,440 Speaker 4: puts together is setting all of us up to be successful. 959 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,640 Speaker 4: When you hear Geno Stone, who's one of the worst 960 00:49:08,680 --> 00:49:12,759 Speaker 4: safeties in football, say that about the coordinator, then you 961 00:49:12,840 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 4: have terrible players. Like, I don't know what else you want, Like, 962 00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,680 Speaker 4: that's an indictment on the players, and then that's an 963 00:49:20,680 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 4: indictment as well on Duke Topin. If your safety is saying, 964 00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:26,560 Speaker 4: don't blame aw, Aw's got us in the right spot. 965 00:49:27,120 --> 00:49:30,719 Speaker 4: Who are we gonna blame? Then the player that's executing 966 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:33,680 Speaker 4: I think to a small degree. 967 00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:38,160 Speaker 3: While it's hard to say anything nice about Geno's stone, 968 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:40,959 Speaker 3: and maybe it would have been cool how he stuck 969 00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:45,160 Speaker 3: around to answer questions yesterday, I'm gonna say that that 970 00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:51,680 Speaker 3: is his way of taking accountability. Yeah, now sure, Frankly, 971 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:55,239 Speaker 3: is there anything any of those guys could say that 972 00:49:55,280 --> 00:49:56,560 Speaker 3: would make anybody feel better? 973 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,200 Speaker 4: No, that's the problem. You're not gonna hear anything like 974 00:50:00,800 --> 00:50:03,359 Speaker 4: there was another thing and we'll play Zach. We're playing 975 00:50:03,440 --> 00:50:06,560 Speaker 4: him at the end of the show today. But Zach 976 00:50:06,600 --> 00:50:08,680 Speaker 4: also talked about like, well he had to sit down 977 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:11,200 Speaker 4: and have a conversation with Chase Brown because the things. 978 00:50:10,960 --> 00:50:14,640 Speaker 3: He said were that's what he said. I want players 979 00:50:14,680 --> 00:50:16,440 Speaker 3: who care like Chase, So that's my thing. 980 00:50:16,600 --> 00:50:19,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, so there's two ways to handle it. Zach at 981 00:50:19,800 --> 00:50:22,279 Speaker 4: the podium today said I love Chase but or Chase Brown, 982 00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 4: but I had to have a conversation with Miday because 983 00:50:24,000 --> 00:50:24,759 Speaker 4: that's not what we do. 984 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 3: Conversation with Chase Brown doesn't play defense. 985 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:30,400 Speaker 4: I would rather a coach say, you know what, I appreciate, 986 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,719 Speaker 4: there's gonna be emotions. We want players to be emotional. 987 00:50:33,760 --> 00:50:36,839 Speaker 4: We want winning to matter. And he was frustrated after 988 00:50:36,880 --> 00:50:39,960 Speaker 4: a loss and I'm not going to I'm. 989 00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 3: Not going to rate him for that. 990 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:43,719 Speaker 4: Those are like Zach's up there saying we need a 991 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:47,640 Speaker 4: leader on defense, But Chase Brown's gonna get a talking 992 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,440 Speaker 4: to because he said what he said. I want players 993 00:50:50,520 --> 00:50:52,800 Speaker 4: like that. Like I mentioned to you off air, I 994 00:50:52,840 --> 00:50:55,800 Speaker 4: would take vontez Perfect on this defense right now. Why 995 00:50:56,040 --> 00:50:58,280 Speaker 4: because I know vontez Perfect is going to give everything 996 00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:00,560 Speaker 4: he has. He's probably gonna go after with the whistle. 997 00:51:00,719 --> 00:51:03,040 Speaker 4: I don't remember the last time anyone's been close enough 998 00:51:03,040 --> 00:51:05,600 Speaker 4: to a quarterback to get a roughing the passer. I 999 00:51:05,719 --> 00:51:08,480 Speaker 4: genuinely don't. When's the last time they roughed the passer? 1000 00:51:08,640 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 4: When's the last time they just delivered a blow to 1001 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:15,759 Speaker 4: someone that borderline after the whistle that got flagged, right, 1002 00:51:15,800 --> 00:51:18,160 Speaker 4: I'll take that at this point, any sign of life 1003 00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:21,960 Speaker 4: from the defense. Chamar Stewart's not been close to a 1004 00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 4: quarterback since you and I watched him tackle Joe Burrow 1005 00:51:24,200 --> 00:51:28,920 Speaker 4: at training camp. Like did that make him scared? He 1006 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:33,080 Speaker 4: get reprimanded, Like that's how crazy it is. Chamar Stewart 1007 00:51:33,080 --> 00:51:35,160 Speaker 4: has not been any closer to a quarterback than him 1008 00:51:35,200 --> 00:51:41,319 Speaker 4: hitting Joe Burrow at training camp. But yes, let's let's 1009 00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:43,959 Speaker 4: talk to Chase Brown because he said that stuff about 1010 00:51:43,960 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 4: a team. 1011 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,360 Speaker 3: If if Zach Taylor takes issue with Chase Brown, I 1012 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,080 Speaker 3: would tell Zach to get ready for a lot more 1013 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,759 Speaker 3: conversations with his offensive players. He did prove because Chase 1014 00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:56,760 Speaker 3: Brown's comments. Yeah, because the frustration is only going to continue. 1015 00:51:56,800 --> 00:51:59,920 Speaker 3: Like I said this to you before, and I mean 1016 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:03,560 Speaker 3: like there's going to be a fight. We're talking about 1017 00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:07,439 Speaker 3: competitive dudes. We're talking about guys who care. We're talking 1018 00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 3: about guys who are playing their asses off, whose best 1019 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,040 Speaker 3: efforts are going to be wasted. Like you can do 1020 00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:14,839 Speaker 3: that whole, Rob, Rob. We win as a team, lose 1021 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:18,720 Speaker 3: as a team. Again, human nature dictates, I'm doing my part. 1022 00:52:19,120 --> 00:52:21,640 Speaker 3: The people closest to me are doing We're doing our part. 1023 00:52:22,080 --> 00:52:26,600 Speaker 3: These guys aren't. And there's no accountability, Like there's going 1024 00:52:26,640 --> 00:52:29,760 Speaker 3: to be something that happens. There's too much season left 1025 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:32,279 Speaker 3: for there not to be if this continues, and why 1026 00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:32,839 Speaker 3: wouldn't it. 1027 00:52:32,800 --> 00:52:35,520 Speaker 4: And tougher opponents. Right, let me give you one more. 1028 00:52:35,920 --> 00:52:38,360 Speaker 4: Our guy, Austin Elmore just sent me this from Mike Petralia. 1029 00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:38,840 Speaker 3: Okay. 1030 00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 4: Darren Simmons was asked about Evan McPherson's short kick on 1031 00:52:42,680 --> 00:52:45,720 Speaker 4: the fifty four yard attempt that came up short. Darren 1032 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:49,920 Speaker 4: Simmons said it was because they had to kick with 1033 00:52:50,000 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 4: a quarterback ball, not a kicking ball. So if a 1034 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:55,879 Speaker 4: kicker comes onto the field, they swap the ball out. Yeah, 1035 00:52:55,960 --> 00:52:59,520 Speaker 4: Quarterbacks pick their balls. Kicker kicks their ball. Because the 1036 00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:03,120 Speaker 4: field came on the field after the plate clock started, 1037 00:53:03,719 --> 00:53:05,759 Speaker 4: the kicking team had to use the QB ball. 1038 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 3: That's where we're at. 1039 00:53:09,440 --> 00:53:12,040 Speaker 4: So since the plate clock started and they decided we're 1040 00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,479 Speaker 4: not gonna go for this, We're gonna send Devin out there, 1041 00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:16,600 Speaker 4: they couldn't even get a kicking ball on the field. 1042 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:19,600 Speaker 3: Does Zach Taylor know that there's a different ball for kickers, 1043 00:53:19,880 --> 00:53:22,279 Speaker 3: I would hope so, because he had his offense out there. 1044 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:25,480 Speaker 4: These are these aren't like April fools, like, hey, pick 1045 00:53:25,520 --> 00:53:27,799 Speaker 4: which one of these quotes is real? So these are 1046 00:53:27,840 --> 00:53:28,520 Speaker 4: all quotes. 1047 00:53:28,840 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 3: Flacco throws the pass. That's intentional grounding. The officials huddled 1048 00:53:33,960 --> 00:53:36,680 Speaker 3: to me because the Chicago sideline is going nuts. Yes, 1049 00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:39,960 Speaker 3: there's a lot of time, a lot of time between 1050 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,560 Speaker 3: when that ball hit the ground, Yes, and when the 1051 00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:43,920 Speaker 3: Bengals attempted to feel. 1052 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,400 Speaker 4: Time on the headset to say, hey, if they do 1053 00:53:45,480 --> 00:53:46,680 Speaker 4: call this, what do we want to do that We 1054 00:53:46,719 --> 00:53:47,399 Speaker 4: was gonna kick it. 1055 00:53:47,480 --> 00:53:50,480 Speaker 3: Plenty of time to go fourth and thirteen, Evan, let's 1056 00:53:50,520 --> 00:53:54,360 Speaker 3: go yes, right, yep, And at that point the officials know, 1057 00:53:54,560 --> 00:53:58,640 Speaker 3: let's swap out the ball. Yeah, Darren simmons explanation may 1058 00:53:58,680 --> 00:54:01,280 Speaker 3: be accurate. Yeah, but it doesn't give him an excuse. 1059 00:54:01,440 --> 00:54:05,120 Speaker 4: No, that sounds worse on the coaching staff. Yes, Like so, 1060 00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:09,439 Speaker 4: the way it's going to happen, intentional grounding is called, 1061 00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:13,080 Speaker 4: the penalty is assessed, they come back, they respot the ball. 1062 00:54:13,560 --> 00:54:16,359 Speaker 4: Once they respot the ball after a couple seconds, are 1063 00:54:16,400 --> 00:54:18,640 Speaker 4: going to start the play clock. Once the play clock 1064 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 4: is started, you can no longer substitute the ball out. 1065 00:54:21,040 --> 00:54:22,000 Speaker 3: And it's a big difference. 1066 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:24,800 Speaker 4: Sure, like quarterbacks, their ball is not going to be 1067 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:27,400 Speaker 4: as inflated as a kicking ball, so it's. 1068 00:54:27,280 --> 00:54:28,759 Speaker 3: Not going to go as far when you kick it. 1069 00:54:29,160 --> 00:54:32,160 Speaker 4: So, in all that time, had the Bengals just trotted 1070 00:54:32,160 --> 00:54:34,400 Speaker 4: Evan McPherson out there right away, what would have happened 1071 00:54:34,760 --> 00:54:37,000 Speaker 4: they swapped the ball out? Well, can I ask a question, 1072 00:54:37,040 --> 00:54:38,560 Speaker 4: William Wagner is the long snapper. 1073 00:54:38,719 --> 00:54:42,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's on the field only on special teams downs. 1074 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:45,360 Speaker 3: So if there's anybody on the team who should be 1075 00:54:45,400 --> 00:54:47,880 Speaker 3: able to put his hand on the ball and know 1076 00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:50,759 Speaker 3: whether or not it's the right one. And I'm legitimately 1077 00:54:50,800 --> 00:54:54,040 Speaker 3: asking here, right, is he allowed to go, hey, wrong ball? 1078 00:54:54,840 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 4: But once the play clock starts, that's it. But like 1079 00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 4: so you either have to burn a time out if 1080 00:54:58,600 --> 00:54:59,640 Speaker 4: they're to get the right ball in. 1081 00:55:01,080 --> 00:55:04,439 Speaker 3: But if the rule is kickers kick a certain ball, 1082 00:55:04,480 --> 00:55:08,160 Speaker 3: it's the k ball and the long snapper goes, this 1083 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 3: isn't the right ball. That's that's not on the Bengals. 1084 00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:14,840 Speaker 3: So could I And I'm legitimately asking here, is William 1085 00:55:14,840 --> 00:55:16,680 Speaker 3: Wagner allowed to go, hey, we got the wrong ball? 1086 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 4: I think he could, But then the official would say 1087 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 4: the play clock already started, so that ball has to 1088 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:21,359 Speaker 4: stay in the game. 1089 00:55:21,960 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 3: But that's the baffling part of that quote is insane 1090 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:30,520 Speaker 3: number one, Like all you had to do was decide 1091 00:55:30,560 --> 00:55:32,799 Speaker 3: on fourth and thirteen, we're not going for it here, yep, 1092 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,560 Speaker 3: put the kicking unit on the field and there's plenty 1093 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 3: of time to swap in the correct ball. But once, but. 1094 00:55:37,719 --> 00:55:39,080 Speaker 4: Like where else does this happen? 1095 00:55:39,120 --> 00:55:41,799 Speaker 3: Once William Wagner. Once William Wagner gets his hands on 1096 00:55:41,840 --> 00:55:47,480 Speaker 3: the ball, does he not have the freedom to say, hey, wrong, doll? Wow? 1097 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:50,960 Speaker 3: I mean, what a comedy of just. 1098 00:55:52,840 --> 00:55:58,120 Speaker 4: It's just demoralizing you, like you're you're almost conditioned as 1099 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:00,920 Speaker 4: a fan to just this. 1100 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:03,560 Speaker 3: Will be the talking point for the next two weeks. Yeah, 1101 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:07,160 Speaker 3: once we get the right ball straightened out, once we 1102 00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:09,799 Speaker 3: know the ball that's coming into the game, we'll be 1103 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:16,879 Speaker 3: in a good spot. Okay, Well, twenty two after that's 1104 00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:18,960 Speaker 3: chalk out as another one up that I never thought 1105 00:56:18,960 --> 00:56:24,680 Speaker 3: i'd read. About twenty two minutes after four o'clock, we're 1106 00:56:24,680 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 3: in Twin Peaks in Westchester.

I'm at 1118 00:57:08,000 --> 00:57:09,320 Speaker 7: Ezelk with traffic. 1119 00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:13,160 Speaker 9: This report is sponsored by Staples. 1120 00:57:12,440 --> 00:57:14,560 Speaker 3: Meals and Wheels. 1121 00:57:14,600 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 5: Brought to you by bell Terra Casino and Belterra Park 1122 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:25,840 Speaker 5: on ESPN fifteen thirty, the official home of the Cincinnati Bengals. 1123 00:57:24,520 --> 00:57:27,800 Speaker 3: In Westchester, home of the Tony and Mo Football Show 1124 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:32,120 Speaker 3: today and next week. By the way, Laurel Faylor, who 1125 00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:36,280 Speaker 3: covers the Bengals as well as FC Cincinnati. Her FC 1126 00:57:36,360 --> 00:57:41,120 Speaker 3: Cincinnati newsletter is a muss and then does Bengals coverage 1127 00:57:41,120 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 3: for the Dayton Daily News and the Hamilton Journal News 1128 00:57:43,720 --> 00:57:47,440 Speaker 3: has an explanation. So if the field goal unit comes 1129 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:50,560 Speaker 3: on after the play clock is started, they do not 1130 00:57:50,600 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 3: switch the ball. Yeah, so there you go. Yep. 1131 00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:58,160 Speaker 4: So again we've seen four timeouts having to be taken, 1132 00:57:58,640 --> 00:58:00,560 Speaker 4: you know, play clock winding down, things like that. 1133 00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:04,080 Speaker 3: If that is the case, just take the time like 1134 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:07,480 Speaker 3: that's a scoring play. Like if you're gonna use the 1135 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:09,680 Speaker 3: time out at the time, that's a scoring play. 1136 00:58:09,800 --> 00:58:11,600 Speaker 4: And that's one that you could like after the game, 1137 00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 4: you could at least rationalize that's six minutes to go 1138 00:58:14,080 --> 00:58:15,600 Speaker 4: in the fourth quarter. That's a scoring play. 1139 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:18,040 Speaker 3: Correct That Just. 1140 00:58:19,880 --> 00:58:24,160 Speaker 4: Again, these are things like that you should be shocked about. 1141 00:58:24,240 --> 00:58:26,880 Speaker 4: And we read these things and it's like, oh, that's 1142 00:58:26,880 --> 00:58:29,360 Speaker 4: the Bengals. That's a bad way to be. 1143 00:58:29,440 --> 00:58:32,600 Speaker 3: I am convinced more than ever that when Joe Burrow 1144 00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 3: comes back, which really quick, if this team is out 1145 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,480 Speaker 3: of it, we'll see you next year. Joe, You're not 1146 00:58:39,560 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 3: doing a Jade and Daniels thing. No, Joe's got to 1147 00:58:42,640 --> 00:58:45,840 Speaker 3: be under center. This offense does function way too well. 1148 00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:49,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's one of the things I lost track of yesterday, 1149 00:58:49,800 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 4: Like you get caught up in the game. I would 1150 00:58:52,600 --> 00:58:55,160 Speaker 4: have I would have guessed Chase Brown had more than 1151 00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:56,320 Speaker 4: thirty seven rushing yards. 1152 00:58:56,400 --> 00:58:57,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, it just felt like it. 1153 00:58:57,760 --> 00:59:00,280 Speaker 4: But he had the ball so much because of is 1154 00:59:01,240 --> 00:59:03,800 Speaker 4: eight catches that you just kind of got. I mean, 1155 00:59:03,800 --> 00:59:07,000 Speaker 4: he touched the ball nineteen times. That's good and if 1156 00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 4: you total up, you know his yardage, he's in a 1157 00:59:09,240 --> 00:59:10,760 Speaker 4: good spot. I just would have thought he would have 1158 00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:14,760 Speaker 4: had more rushing yards than just a thirty seven. 1159 00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:17,920 Speaker 3: They did run running plays out of shotgun yesterday. Yeah, 1160 00:59:18,040 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 3: I mean it wasn't like every running play was with 1161 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:25,360 Speaker 3: Flacco and center, but it I don't know. Man. To me, 1162 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:29,160 Speaker 3: it's among the many real interesting stories of the offseason, 1163 00:59:29,200 --> 00:59:32,080 Speaker 3: and there are many. How are you meshing the way 1164 00:59:32,080 --> 00:59:34,320 Speaker 3: this offense has functioned with how Joe wants to play, 1165 00:59:34,360 --> 00:59:36,360 Speaker 3: which is it's obviously something we've talked about in the 1166 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:37,360 Speaker 3: past with Jake Browning. 1167 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:39,200 Speaker 4: But it's going to continue to be a thing. That's 1168 00:59:39,200 --> 00:59:43,280 Speaker 4: another offseason question. But again, they've failed on their off 1169 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:47,480 Speaker 4: season answers. They did not protect Joe Burrow enough, that 1170 00:59:47,600 --> 00:59:51,840 Speaker 4: was a high priority. They have not addressed the defense 1171 00:59:51,880 --> 00:59:54,520 Speaker 4: in a positive way, and the defense was atrocious last year. 1172 00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:57,640 Speaker 4: The draft seems to have been a miss by a 1173 00:59:57,720 --> 01:00:00,920 Speaker 4: lot of different levels. It is, I mean, from a 1174 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:03,240 Speaker 4: whole right now, it's a failure. 1175 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:06,560 Speaker 3: Can I do one more miss? Please? Because it's and 1176 01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:09,680 Speaker 3: I told you so. This has nothing to do with 1177 01:00:09,680 --> 01:00:14,480 Speaker 3: the game yesterday we referenced Bob Trump. He's passing before. Yes, 1178 01:00:15,000 --> 01:00:16,960 Speaker 3: Bob Trumpy will not be alive when he goes into 1179 01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:21,840 Speaker 3: the Ring of Honor. Sad, stupid, huge miss, huge mess. 1180 01:00:22,000 --> 01:00:28,840 Speaker 3: Just yep. The I certainly give them credit for deciding 1181 01:00:28,840 --> 01:00:31,280 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty one we need a Ring of honor, 1182 01:00:32,280 --> 01:00:34,960 Speaker 3: but I remember talking about that this past summer going like, 1183 01:00:35,120 --> 01:00:38,200 Speaker 3: just put these guys in, Yeah, just put just put 1184 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 3: them in, forget a vote, put them in so you 1185 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:46,040 Speaker 3: don't confront a situation where someone has passed and they're 1186 01:00:46,080 --> 01:00:48,520 Speaker 3: not there for it. And Bob Trump, he deserves to 1187 01:00:48,520 --> 01:00:50,280 Speaker 3: be in the Ring of Honor as awesome as a 1188 01:00:50,320 --> 01:00:54,000 Speaker 3: broadcaster that as he was godfather of Cincinnati Sports Talk, 1189 01:00:54,320 --> 01:00:57,200 Speaker 3: was on the number one team on NBC. He's still 1190 01:00:57,200 --> 01:01:00,400 Speaker 3: the franchisees all time leader among tight ends in receiving 1191 01:01:01,520 --> 01:01:04,200 Speaker 3: four time pro bowler And now when they put his 1192 01:01:04,280 --> 01:01:06,360 Speaker 3: name in the Ring of Honor, which they should, I 1193 01:01:06,360 --> 01:01:09,000 Speaker 3: think will he won't be here for it. Great work, 1194 01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 3: big miss. 1195 01:01:10,360 --> 01:01:15,800 Speaker 4: I I didn't know obviously like much of job Trumpy 1196 01:01:15,880 --> 01:01:17,960 Speaker 4: except what you heard in stories, but just. 1197 01:01:17,920 --> 01:01:18,760 Speaker 3: An awesome dude. 1198 01:01:18,840 --> 01:01:22,640 Speaker 4: Awesome dude, and like just for me personally, like he 1199 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,120 Speaker 4: opened the door and man bridge a gap of former 1200 01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 4: players getting into broadcasting like that was that was not 1201 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,040 Speaker 4: as much of a thing. You're exactly right, And for 1202 01:01:31,120 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 4: him to go from player and not the. 1203 01:01:32,640 --> 01:01:36,640 Speaker 3: Transitions and not just like doing color like hosting Showy, Yeah. 1204 01:01:36,600 --> 01:01:41,439 Speaker 4: His own show, Like that's it's very much of where 1205 01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:43,760 Speaker 4: I'm at is in large part due to the doors 1206 01:01:43,760 --> 01:01:46,760 Speaker 4: that he opened and started down the path of which 1207 01:01:46,800 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 4: is obviously you're very appreciative. 1208 01:01:48,240 --> 01:01:51,680 Speaker 3: Just the coolest guy and the greatest voice in the 1209 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:54,640 Speaker 3: history of broadcasting. Yep. Took a lot of cigarettes to 1210 01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:55,120 Speaker 3: get it there. 1211 01:01:55,240 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I've heard stories of like walking in and like 1212 01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:00,720 Speaker 4: barely being able to see him with. 1213 01:02:01,360 --> 01:02:05,280 Speaker 3: When we were working in Mount Adams and it became 1214 01:02:05,320 --> 01:02:07,520 Speaker 3: a non smoking building and Bob would come up to 1215 01:02:08,000 --> 01:02:10,280 Speaker 3: He did a show on Thursday Nights with Boomersie and 1216 01:02:10,280 --> 01:02:12,840 Speaker 3: Boomer was in New York, Bob was here, and I 1217 01:02:12,880 --> 01:02:15,560 Speaker 3: remember our boss at the time is like, hey, tonight, 1218 01:02:15,560 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 3: you got to tell Bobby can't smoke.

You're 1222 01:02:27,760 --> 01:02:29,400 Speaker 3: you're not allowed to smoke in the building. And he 1223 01:02:29,480 --> 01:02:32,120 Speaker 3: takes a big long drag and he goes and I 1224 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,720 Speaker 3: can't do his voice. I'll take that under advisement.

Yes, Zach, Zach, Zach, Zach, Zach, 1346 01:09:08,160 --> 01:09:10,160 Speaker 4: that ball looks like it's a quarterback ball, like. 1347 01:09:11,720 --> 01:09:14,760 Speaker 3: Legitimately, and I know we're gonna talk about the Bearcats here, 1348 01:09:16,680 --> 01:09:21,479 Speaker 3: How does a head coach in his seventh season be 1349 01:09:21,640 --> 01:09:26,920 Speaker 3: that indecisive incredible about what to do in that situation. 1350 01:09:27,040 --> 01:09:29,320 Speaker 3: It's fourth and fourth, it's fourth and thirteen. It's not 1351 01:09:29,360 --> 01:09:31,800 Speaker 3: even like fourth and six or seven where you've gone 1352 01:09:31,800 --> 01:09:33,920 Speaker 3: from fourth and one or fourth and shure, and it's 1353 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:36,040 Speaker 3: a it's a ten yard penalty and loss of down. 1354 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 4: How well are we sure that Russ Knack used a 1355 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:43,960 Speaker 4: kicking ball at Utah? 1356 01:09:44,160 --> 01:09:44,320 Speaker 8: Oh? 1357 01:09:44,600 --> 01:09:46,639 Speaker 3: Very good, pivot, very good? 1358 01:09:46,680 --> 01:09:49,920 Speaker 4: Sure are we sure that that was a kicking ball 1359 01:09:49,920 --> 01:09:50,360 Speaker 4: in place? 1360 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:55,559 Speaker 3: So here's here's how I want to process you See's loss, Okay, 1361 01:09:56,320 --> 01:09:58,839 Speaker 3: And then there's how I'm afraid I'm going to process 1362 01:09:58,920 --> 01:10:01,439 Speaker 3: u See's loss. Yeah. How I want to process it is, 1363 01:10:01,960 --> 01:10:04,280 Speaker 3: you know what just not there at night? Yep. Utah's 1364 01:10:04,280 --> 01:10:06,719 Speaker 3: great at running the ball average two to sixty seven 1365 01:10:06,760 --> 01:10:09,160 Speaker 3: on the ground coming in ran for exactly two sixty 1366 01:10:09,200 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 3: seven against Cincinnati. That two sixty seven, Yes, number one 1367 01:10:12,840 --> 01:10:15,639 Speaker 3: in the country minus the Service academies. So you knew 1368 01:10:15,640 --> 01:10:17,120 Speaker 3: they were going to run the football and they did. 1369 01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 3: You know that Cincinnati's defensive weakness has often this season 1370 01:10:22,200 --> 01:10:25,519 Speaker 3: been stopping the run. What they fell victim to were 1371 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,080 Speaker 3: some things that have been uncharacteristic at this team. Turnovers, 1372 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:30,400 Speaker 3: they had three of them now they got the ball 1373 01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:32,599 Speaker 3: back immediately after one of them. With three turnovers one 1374 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:35,200 Speaker 3: in the red zones. Killer, they miss a field goal, 1375 01:10:35,240 --> 01:10:37,320 Speaker 3: they give up a punt return for a touchdown. Special 1376 01:10:37,360 --> 01:10:39,760 Speaker 3: teams play has been awesome for Cincinnati. It was the 1377 01:10:39,800 --> 01:10:43,080 Speaker 3: exact opposite on Saturday, and Brendan sores Be played as 1378 01:10:43,120 --> 01:10:45,360 Speaker 3: poor as he has I think since being a Bearcat. 1379 01:10:45,720 --> 01:10:48,000 Speaker 3: That obviously hasn't been the rules. So the way I 1380 01:10:48,040 --> 01:10:51,800 Speaker 3: want to process it is what you expected to go wrong, did, 1381 01:10:52,120 --> 01:10:54,040 Speaker 3: but a lot of other stuff went wrong that typically 1382 01:10:54,080 --> 01:10:56,599 Speaker 3: doesn't go wrong, and so the loss isn't worth making 1383 01:10:56,600 --> 01:10:58,680 Speaker 3: a big deal out of because a lot of those 1384 01:10:58,720 --> 01:11:01,000 Speaker 3: things that went wrong aren't really of who they are. 1385 01:11:01,240 --> 01:11:03,880 Speaker 3: How I fear I'm going to process it is this 1386 01:11:04,840 --> 01:11:07,400 Speaker 3: that the offense to a degree, looked a lot like 1387 01:11:07,439 --> 01:11:09,160 Speaker 3: it did toward the end of the season last year. 1388 01:11:09,439 --> 01:11:13,479 Speaker 3: Guys couldn't get open, wasn't a ton of creativity. Sores 1389 01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:16,559 Speaker 3: By was either gun shy or just simply not very good. 1390 01:11:16,960 --> 01:11:20,800 Speaker 3: They couldn't work in Joe Royer, and so this could 1391 01:11:20,840 --> 01:11:25,760 Speaker 3: be the beginning of a downward slide that results in 1392 01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:30,280 Speaker 3: a deeply unsatisfying win loss record after starting seven and one. Yah, 1393 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:33,280 Speaker 3: how should I process it? The former or the latter. 1394 01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:34,960 Speaker 4: I'm still gonna give them the benefit of down on 1395 01:11:34,960 --> 01:11:36,920 Speaker 4: the former because they did it over a seven game 1396 01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:40,519 Speaker 4: stretch where they didn't turn the ball over. They were 1397 01:11:40,560 --> 01:11:43,599 Speaker 4: extremely efficient, and I think through money of those seven games, 1398 01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,960 Speaker 4: Mo we said the same thing of they're kind of 1399 01:11:45,960 --> 01:11:48,120 Speaker 4: playing with fire in some of these the laws they 1400 01:11:48,120 --> 01:11:49,800 Speaker 4: would go on, but they had always found a way 1401 01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:54,880 Speaker 4: and they always answered. And to me, that's how I'm 1402 01:11:54,960 --> 01:11:59,519 Speaker 4: hoping this comes out. And in processing it, I thought 1403 01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:02,000 Speaker 4: all along when they got to the last four, win 1404 01:12:02,040 --> 01:12:04,320 Speaker 4: three out of four, and you're in good shape. They 1405 01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:06,920 Speaker 4: still if they beat Arizona BYU at home and TCU 1406 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:08,840 Speaker 4: on the road, they'll play for a big twelve championship. 1407 01:12:09,360 --> 01:12:11,960 Speaker 4: So there's still a lot ahead of this team that 1408 01:12:12,080 --> 01:12:15,840 Speaker 4: you probably could do. What All right, let's watch the tape, 1409 01:12:16,200 --> 01:12:19,800 Speaker 4: let's throw it away, and then let's move on. There's 1410 01:12:19,840 --> 01:12:23,920 Speaker 4: also that concern of we saw them stumble down the 1411 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:26,519 Speaker 4: stretch and it felt like at times the book was 1412 01:12:26,520 --> 01:12:28,599 Speaker 4: out on them last year, like they had been figured 1413 01:12:28,640 --> 01:12:32,880 Speaker 4: out if I watched that game and I am Arizona, 1414 01:12:33,160 --> 01:12:38,200 Speaker 4: and I'm BYU, and I'm TCU. I am pressuring this 1415 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:40,479 Speaker 4: team until they show me they have an answer for it. 1416 01:12:41,479 --> 01:12:42,400 Speaker 3: That's all Utah did. 1417 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,439 Speaker 4: I mean, it was unprecedented, the amount of times Utah 1418 01:12:45,439 --> 01:12:48,200 Speaker 4: brought pressure. Scott's saddlefield with me after the game alluded 1419 01:12:48,240 --> 01:12:50,479 Speaker 4: to it. They were just bringing pressure a ton and. 1420 01:12:50,439 --> 01:12:52,920 Speaker 3: It didn't result in sacks. What was the answer to it? 1421 01:12:53,320 --> 01:12:55,719 Speaker 4: Like I think of man pressure, I think of crossing 1422 01:12:55,800 --> 01:12:59,920 Speaker 4: routes man killers. I think of tight end play man killer. 1423 01:13:00,360 --> 01:13:02,639 Speaker 4: I think of extending the pocket and using your quarterback 1424 01:13:02,960 --> 01:13:05,600 Speaker 4: as a run pass option man killer. I think of 1425 01:13:05,640 --> 01:13:07,960 Speaker 4: even and out the numbers in the box by using 1426 01:13:07,960 --> 01:13:09,240 Speaker 4: the quarterback in design runs. 1427 01:13:09,240 --> 01:13:11,960 Speaker 3: He only was ran the ball twice. It stares me. 1428 01:13:12,720 --> 01:13:16,559 Speaker 4: So my concern is if we're seeing that, why weren't 1429 01:13:16,560 --> 01:13:19,320 Speaker 4: they able to adjust to it? And will you have 1430 01:13:19,360 --> 01:13:22,000 Speaker 4: a better answer for it? Like, it's not we went 1431 01:13:22,040 --> 01:13:24,280 Speaker 4: into the game. It's not new that Utah pressures. 1432 01:13:24,760 --> 01:13:27,000 Speaker 3: It's not new. They ran the most man coverage in 1433 01:13:27,040 --> 01:13:28,120 Speaker 3: college football this year. 1434 01:13:28,479 --> 01:13:30,160 Speaker 4: You knew that was coming. You didn't have an answer 1435 01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:34,240 Speaker 4: all night for it. That's my concern last year the 1436 01:13:34,240 --> 01:13:36,479 Speaker 4: book got out and you didn't make the adjustments, and 1437 01:13:36,479 --> 01:13:39,559 Speaker 4: what did we see the wide receivers outside of Cyrus's 1438 01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:43,160 Speaker 4: Alan Cyrus Allen's explosive play, kind of getting walled off 1439 01:13:43,160 --> 01:13:45,760 Speaker 4: at the sideline, not a lot of separation, not a 1440 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:50,000 Speaker 4: lot of route concepts. It was fade routes and many 1441 01:13:50,040 --> 01:13:53,360 Speaker 4: of those landed in the six to seven yards out 1442 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 4: of bounds slot. 1443 01:13:54,960 --> 01:13:57,960 Speaker 3: So it was a. 1444 01:13:57,880 --> 01:14:01,680 Speaker 4: Weird game, forty five team. And there's a point I'm like, 1445 01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:03,600 Speaker 4: I feel like the defense wasn't awful. 1446 01:14:04,840 --> 01:14:07,200 Speaker 3: Really bad on second and Long. Second Long was terrible. 1447 01:14:07,240 --> 01:14:09,160 Speaker 3: You pointed out often during the broadcast. 1448 01:14:08,720 --> 01:14:10,840 Speaker 4: The second Long was awful, but you give up the 1449 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:14,479 Speaker 4: punt return a couple of momentum plays and it got 1450 01:14:14,479 --> 01:14:16,200 Speaker 4: away from him late. But I thought for much of 1451 01:14:16,240 --> 01:14:19,000 Speaker 4: that game like they gave him a shot in the 1452 01:14:19,000 --> 01:14:21,720 Speaker 4: second half, they got to stop you see, scored, then 1453 01:14:21,760 --> 01:14:24,280 Speaker 4: they got a turnover, and I felt like, if you see. 1454 01:14:24,120 --> 01:14:26,880 Speaker 3: It takes advantage down ten and goes and scores, here 1455 01:14:26,920 --> 01:14:27,240 Speaker 3: we go. 1456 01:14:27,960 --> 01:14:29,519 Speaker 4: You see went three and out and they never got 1457 01:14:29,520 --> 01:14:34,840 Speaker 4: their footing back after that. So it's, uh, it's at 1458 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:38,160 Speaker 4: times maddening to me. At some of the usage rates 1459 01:14:38,160 --> 01:14:40,879 Speaker 4: on offense, Well, can you know who they are on defense? 1460 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:48,519 Speaker 3: Can you the usage rate on offense? Everybody who follows 1461 01:14:48,560 --> 01:14:54,640 Speaker 3: the Bearcats or rights about or talks about the draft 1462 01:14:54,800 --> 01:14:58,840 Speaker 3: and mentions Joe Royer seems to believe that he has 1463 01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:03,120 Speaker 3: a bright future in the NFL. A tight end. He 1464 01:15:03,200 --> 01:15:03,840 Speaker 3: looks the part. 1465 01:15:04,000 --> 01:15:05,760 Speaker 4: Top McShay had him in the first round of his 1466 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,680 Speaker 4: like preseason draft had him in the first round pick 1467 01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:09,479 Speaker 4: number thirty one. 1468 01:15:09,560 --> 01:15:13,120 Speaker 3: He has twenty three catches this season. He has two 1469 01:15:13,400 --> 01:15:17,000 Speaker 3: each of the last two weeks. In no game does 1470 01:15:17,000 --> 01:15:19,760 Speaker 3: he have more than five catches, and he's had five 1471 01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:25,559 Speaker 3: catches in one game once. Now, when the offense is working, 1472 01:15:25,920 --> 01:15:28,720 Speaker 3: not a big deal. When the offense isn't working, and 1473 01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:32,960 Speaker 3: in their two losses it really hasn't worked, Joe Royer 1474 01:15:33,000 --> 01:15:35,639 Speaker 3: has a combined four catches for twenty one yards. Yep, 1475 01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:39,760 Speaker 3: he should be a bigger factor. I don't understand it. 1476 01:15:40,040 --> 01:15:42,519 Speaker 3: I look at other tight ends in college football and 1477 01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:45,720 Speaker 3: I see how they're used, and I think Scott Zanderfield's 1478 01:15:45,800 --> 01:15:49,000 Speaker 3: offense this year has often been very creative and it's 1479 01:15:49,000 --> 01:15:53,120 Speaker 3: often been very productive. But I just for what we 1480 01:15:53,240 --> 01:15:56,800 Speaker 3: know about Joe Royer for all of his measurables that 1481 01:15:56,840 --> 01:15:59,559 Speaker 3: people love. For as much as everybody believes, this guy's 1482 01:15:59,600 --> 01:16:01,120 Speaker 3: a chance to go the NFL and have a very 1483 01:16:01,120 --> 01:16:04,599 Speaker 3: good career. If you just look at the numbers, if 1484 01:16:04,600 --> 01:16:06,600 Speaker 3: you just look at the stats, you don't know what 1485 01:16:07,080 --> 01:16:10,719 Speaker 3: twenty three catches like. Why is he not a bigger 1486 01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,360 Speaker 3: factor in their offense? Yeah? 1487 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:17,160 Speaker 4: Someone the NFL Draft buzz. His biggest weakness still developing 1488 01:16:17,200 --> 01:16:21,879 Speaker 4: as a blocker. That's all he's used for. His strengths 1489 01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 4: are his pass catching, his route, running right yards after 1490 01:16:24,800 --> 01:16:30,240 Speaker 4: the catch. That's his strengths, right, Like they're not being utilized. This, 1491 01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:34,400 Speaker 4: this says of Joe Royer NFL Draft Buzz, Royer is 1492 01:16:34,400 --> 01:16:38,519 Speaker 4: a matchup problem that defensive coordinators will lose sleepover in 1493 01:16:38,560 --> 01:16:39,080 Speaker 4: the NFL. 1494 01:16:39,720 --> 01:16:41,439 Speaker 3: That good of a matchup problem. 1495 01:16:41,560 --> 01:16:44,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, and yet he's been targeted once each of the 1496 01:16:44,520 --> 01:16:45,280 Speaker 4: last two games. 1497 01:16:46,479 --> 01:16:49,000 Speaker 3: And by the way, and he caught both of those targets. 1498 01:16:50,600 --> 01:16:52,880 Speaker 3: I'll mention this about Saturday. It's not like I often 1499 01:16:52,880 --> 01:16:56,400 Speaker 3: thought he was open. I mean, right, I love Joe, 1500 01:16:56,439 --> 01:16:58,800 Speaker 3: but I mean it ain't like I was saying to 1501 01:16:58,840 --> 01:17:03,439 Speaker 3: myself throwing the it wasn't open, right, I just his 1502 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:05,760 Speaker 3: role in the offense should be bigger. And this is 1503 01:17:05,760 --> 01:17:07,479 Speaker 3: something Tony, you and I talked about it after they 1504 01:17:07,520 --> 01:17:10,799 Speaker 3: won against Baylor and scored in six of their seven 1505 01:17:10,880 --> 01:17:14,960 Speaker 3: real possessions. I just what I think about Joe and 1506 01:17:14,960 --> 01:17:19,040 Speaker 3: what I think NFL people think about Joe versus how 1507 01:17:19,080 --> 01:17:21,679 Speaker 3: he's used those There's not a It doesn't mesh. 1508 01:17:21,800 --> 01:17:25,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't get it, especially when your offense is 1509 01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 4: struggling to get going right or Brendan Swarsby's with eleven 1510 01:17:29,200 --> 01:17:32,240 Speaker 4: of thirty three. He got a couple of ballot balls 1511 01:17:32,240 --> 01:17:35,080 Speaker 4: bat it down early. That messes with you in your 1512 01:17:35,120 --> 01:17:37,600 Speaker 4: progression a little bit. The one way you get a 1513 01:17:37,600 --> 01:17:40,320 Speaker 4: guy on track, it's like a shooter in basketball getting 1514 01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:43,400 Speaker 4: to the foul line, find an easy completion or two. 1515 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:49,400 Speaker 4: To me, that's Joe Royer, whether it's a screen, whether 1516 01:17:49,479 --> 01:17:52,639 Speaker 4: it's a stick route. We saw a stick route against 1517 01:17:52,920 --> 01:17:56,360 Speaker 4: Baylor or the home game prior where he took it 1518 01:17:56,360 --> 01:17:59,280 Speaker 4: almost a distance five yard pass and he took it 1519 01:17:59,360 --> 01:18:00,160 Speaker 4: seventy yards. 1520 01:18:00,920 --> 01:18:01,880 Speaker 3: That's what he can do. 1521 01:18:02,680 --> 01:18:05,679 Speaker 4: I just don't understand, especially when the offense goes through laws, 1522 01:18:06,320 --> 01:18:08,439 Speaker 4: why he's not utilized more in the passing game. But 1523 01:18:08,479 --> 01:18:11,559 Speaker 4: with all that said, this team still has a shot 1524 01:18:11,560 --> 01:18:13,160 Speaker 4: to play for a Big twelve champions. 1525 01:18:12,800 --> 01:18:15,400 Speaker 3: If they excuse me, if they went out two of 1526 01:18:15,439 --> 01:18:16,680 Speaker 3: the next three year at home. By the way, if 1527 01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:19,559 Speaker 3: you if you didn't see the Arizona game, which is 1528 01:18:19,600 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 3: their next home game, is going to be a noon kickoff. 1529 01:18:23,320 --> 01:18:26,400 Speaker 3: The Wildcats crushed Colorado, which is awful this year. The 1530 01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:29,200 Speaker 3: by game is going to be here. BYU and Texas 1531 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:31,920 Speaker 3: Tech play this week and then Cincinnati ends up the 1532 01:18:31,920 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 3: season regular season at TCU. They control their own. 1533 01:18:36,200 --> 01:18:38,720 Speaker 4: Math is easy. The maanthusy Texas Tech has one Big 1534 01:18:38,760 --> 01:18:42,000 Speaker 4: twelve loss. If BYU beats them, that's their second, and 1535 01:18:42,040 --> 01:18:44,519 Speaker 4: then you see could hand BYU their first loss, and 1536 01:18:44,640 --> 01:18:47,320 Speaker 4: on the head to head tie breaker. If BYU lose 1537 01:18:47,400 --> 01:18:49,559 Speaker 4: this and you see still beats them, then that's BYU 1538 01:18:49,640 --> 01:18:50,200 Speaker 4: second loss. 1539 01:18:50,200 --> 01:18:51,680 Speaker 3: So you play Texas Tech in the Big TA. 1540 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:56,599 Speaker 4: Like the Houston loss clears this up a lot based 1541 01:18:56,640 --> 01:18:59,840 Speaker 4: on lost west each other. One team is going to 1542 01:18:59,880 --> 01:19:01,680 Speaker 4: have two losses and the others are going to have 1543 01:19:01,720 --> 01:19:03,639 Speaker 4: one if you went out, So the. 1544 01:19:03,520 --> 01:19:06,800 Speaker 3: Math works out what I watched on Saturday does not 1545 01:19:07,080 --> 01:19:11,519 Speaker 3: know And Brendan Sorosby's had a very good year, but 1546 01:19:11,800 --> 01:19:13,559 Speaker 3: in the middle of the season. Last year, it felt 1547 01:19:13,600 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 3: like one bad game snowball, and I worry about that 1548 01:19:16,960 --> 01:19:17,680 Speaker 3: happening this year. 1549 01:19:17,720 --> 01:19:20,559 Speaker 4: And I worry about that, Like on a national level, 1550 01:19:20,960 --> 01:19:23,760 Speaker 4: if you haven't watched, you see us closely, and then 1551 01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:25,160 Speaker 4: you turned on College game Day. 1552 01:19:25,439 --> 01:19:27,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, College Game Day was awesome. 1553 01:19:27,600 --> 01:19:31,320 Speaker 4: They did two separate individual stories about Swersby and then 1554 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:33,759 Speaker 4: you watch that and you never got his name, right, Yeah, 1555 01:19:33,800 --> 01:19:36,599 Speaker 4: and then you turn on for the first time. Let's 1556 01:19:36,600 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 4: see what this guy's about, and that's what you watched. Yeah, 1557 01:19:38,920 --> 01:19:41,439 Speaker 4: that's I mean, I hate that for him because he's 1558 01:19:41,439 --> 01:19:44,920 Speaker 4: been so good, but on a national level, when the 1559 01:19:44,920 --> 01:19:47,600 Speaker 4: build up has not been higher for you or this team, 1560 01:19:47,920 --> 01:19:50,160 Speaker 4: it was just his worst performance we've seen. 1561 01:19:50,880 --> 01:19:54,240 Speaker 3: He'll get a chance to atone for it, sure, but 1562 01:19:54,320 --> 01:19:59,599 Speaker 3: what I'm curious is snowball like last year or one off. 1563 01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:01,839 Speaker 3: If it's a one off, this team's fine. 1564 01:20:01,880 --> 01:20:03,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, because they're gonna be you hope, they have the leadership. 1565 01:20:04,360 --> 01:20:06,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, they bounce back after Nebraska. 1566 01:20:06,080 --> 01:20:10,559 Speaker 4: But I also think it's interesting not just injuries, influential injuries. Yeah, 1567 01:20:10,760 --> 01:20:13,800 Speaker 4: Dante Corleone's not being right. Jake Golday didn't finish the game. 1568 01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:18,479 Speaker 4: Evan Pryor was out. Yeah, I don't know if Michael 1569 01:20:18,560 --> 01:20:21,760 Speaker 4: er if Mickel Walker had any I always called Michael 1570 01:20:21,800 --> 01:20:24,960 Speaker 4: Warren because I think if they're similar backs. Yeah, but 1571 01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:27,320 Speaker 4: he only had seven carries in the game. They're not 1572 01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,040 Speaker 4: only they have guys banged up, but they have guys 1573 01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:31,519 Speaker 4: banged up at key positions. And I think the bye 1574 01:20:31,520 --> 01:20:32,599 Speaker 4: week's coming into purpose. 1575 01:20:32,439 --> 01:20:35,680 Speaker 3: As good as they are at linebacker, Jake Golday is indispensable. 1576 01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:39,559 Speaker 3: Dante Corleone when healthy, is still their best player. And 1577 01:20:40,520 --> 01:20:43,640 Speaker 3: I think you can get by without Evan Pryor or 1578 01:20:43,760 --> 01:20:46,479 Speaker 3: tyr Wee Walker. Yeah, I don't think you can get 1579 01:20:46,479 --> 01:20:49,799 Speaker 3: by without both. We'll see. It's eight away from five o'clock. 1580 01:20:49,840 --> 01:20:52,160 Speaker 3: Back to the Bengals, whether we like it or not. 1581 01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:54,120 Speaker 3: Coming up after the top of the hour, it's Antonian 1582 01:20:54,160 --> 01:20:57,400 Speaker 3: Mo Football Show at Twin Peaks in Westchester on ESPN 1583 01:20:57,479 --> 01:20:59,240 Speaker 3: fifteen thirty Cincinnati Sports. 1584 01:20:58,920 --> 01:21:05,760 Speaker 5: Station Cincinnati's ESPN fifteen thirty.

We're gonna we haven't touched on 1631 01:23:43,760 --> 01:23:45,600 Speaker 3: the rest of the NFL, the AFC North. We'll do 1632 01:23:45,640 --> 01:23:48,760 Speaker 3: that and we'll here Zach Taylor's press conference later on 1633 01:23:48,800 --> 01:23:51,519 Speaker 3: this hour. Can you run through the quotes? Yeah, you 1634 01:23:51,600 --> 01:23:55,479 Speaker 3: read to me during they hour break. So Jordan Battle 1635 01:23:55,600 --> 01:23:58,679 Speaker 3: is talking today. It's good, okay. 1636 01:23:58,960 --> 01:24:04,719 Speaker 4: He was asked after yesterday's game if Zach Taylor's messaging 1637 01:24:04,760 --> 01:24:07,839 Speaker 4: to the team was any different today than a normal Monday, 1638 01:24:07,840 --> 01:24:12,320 Speaker 4: And to me, that's that's that's important because if the 1639 01:24:12,320 --> 01:24:14,360 Speaker 4: messaging is the same, there's a bigger problem, then the 1640 01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:18,439 Speaker 4: results are probably gonna be quote whatever. His comment to 1641 01:24:18,520 --> 01:24:25,120 Speaker 4: that question was no comment. So one, how hard would 1642 01:24:25,160 --> 01:24:28,720 Speaker 4: it be to say, yes, the messaging was different? You 1643 01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:31,280 Speaker 4: know there's a sense of urgency. Yeah, we realized that 1644 01:24:32,120 --> 01:24:34,400 Speaker 4: Zach Taylor was asked the exact same question, and you'll 1645 01:24:34,400 --> 01:24:38,599 Speaker 4: hear that later in the hour. His response, I guess 1646 01:24:38,640 --> 01:24:43,880 Speaker 4: you'd have to ask the players. Can we just get 1647 01:24:43,920 --> 01:24:44,519 Speaker 4: an answer? 1648 01:24:45,280 --> 01:24:46,799 Speaker 3: Listen? Like it has been. 1649 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:51,000 Speaker 4: Back to back weeks of arguably the worst losses in 1650 01:24:51,080 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 4: franchise history, based on how it happened, and a fair 1651 01:24:55,080 --> 01:24:58,080 Speaker 4: question is asked of is the messaging any different today 1652 01:24:58,080 --> 01:24:58,719 Speaker 4: than it normally? 1653 01:24:58,800 --> 01:25:03,000 Speaker 3: Is? No comment? And then Zach is asked, and Zach. 1654 01:25:02,840 --> 01:25:05,880 Speaker 4: Could also most say what, Yeah, it was that we 1655 01:25:06,200 --> 01:25:09,080 Speaker 4: need more attention to detail. There's an understanding that the 1656 01:25:09,080 --> 01:25:10,960 Speaker 4: product we've put out for the last couple of weeks 1657 01:25:11,080 --> 01:25:13,479 Speaker 4: is not good enough and we're going to adjust that. 1658 01:25:13,880 --> 01:25:15,880 Speaker 4: And we made sure today that the tone was set. 1659 01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:21,480 Speaker 3: That's easy. Instead, what was it? You have to ask them? 1660 01:25:21,840 --> 01:25:24,960 Speaker 4: So just deflecting. No one wants to tone that like 1661 01:25:26,200 --> 01:25:28,040 Speaker 4: somebody own up for how bad this is. 1662 01:25:28,160 --> 01:25:30,519 Speaker 3: So there's where I was going to go next. So 1663 01:25:30,880 --> 01:25:33,719 Speaker 3: Paul Dayner Junior wrote a piece after the game yesterday 1664 01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:38,519 Speaker 3: pointing out how with a lot of the offensive players, 1665 01:25:38,720 --> 01:25:43,679 Speaker 3: you're getting visible and outward and public frustration. Chase Brown, 1666 01:25:43,840 --> 01:25:48,599 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase and at least me, I can't blame those guys. 1667 01:25:49,680 --> 01:25:51,920 Speaker 3: Dana wrote about how he goes in the locker room 1668 01:25:51,960 --> 01:25:56,040 Speaker 3: after the game. Chris Jenkins, Chamar Stewart, and Jordan Battle, 1669 01:25:56,400 --> 01:25:59,439 Speaker 3: who to his credit, did talk today, I guess all 1670 01:25:59,479 --> 01:26:04,559 Speaker 3: declined the opportunity to speak. Geno Stone gone before media 1671 01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:07,479 Speaker 3: members even got into the news conference room, and then 1672 01:26:07,560 --> 01:26:10,679 Speaker 3: Paul points out that was even some notable laughter involved. 1673 01:26:10,840 --> 01:26:13,680 Speaker 3: Now that's what you want. Paul does point out that 1674 01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:17,839 Speaker 3: Barret Carter and Demetrius Knight were made available and talked. 1675 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:21,360 Speaker 3: Dax Hill same as well. But you have a lot 1676 01:26:21,400 --> 01:26:23,799 Speaker 3: of guys who don't want to talk. Now, I don't 1677 01:26:23,920 --> 01:26:26,600 Speaker 3: like it, but okay. 1678 01:26:26,360 --> 01:26:28,840 Speaker 4: It's also crazy because Shamar Stewart had no problem talking 1679 01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:30,680 Speaker 4: when it was about his contract, no doubt about it. 1680 01:26:30,840 --> 01:26:35,240 Speaker 3: You're right about that, So okay, fine, it's right after 1681 01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:37,800 Speaker 3: the game. Maybe they don't want to say the wrong thing. 1682 01:26:38,360 --> 01:26:42,080 Speaker 3: Maybe they'll present themselves tomorrow like Jordan Battle he did. 1683 01:26:42,880 --> 01:26:47,080 Speaker 3: If I was Duke Tobin, if I legitimately felt responsible 1684 01:26:47,120 --> 01:26:49,439 Speaker 3: about this mess, I would feel like, you know what, 1685 01:26:49,880 --> 01:26:53,000 Speaker 3: My coach has to talk multiple times per week. These 1686 01:26:53,000 --> 01:26:55,800 Speaker 3: players after they play have to have microphones shoved in 1687 01:26:55,800 --> 01:26:58,200 Speaker 3: their face, and nobody's gonna feel sorry for them. You 1688 01:26:58,240 --> 01:27:01,960 Speaker 3: know what, I'm gonna answer questions. This is to me frustrating, 1689 01:27:01,960 --> 01:27:05,639 Speaker 3: and I don't say this from my perspective. I don't 1690 01:27:05,720 --> 01:27:10,160 Speaker 3: understand how if you're Duke Tobin in this decision making 1691 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:14,160 Speaker 3: capacity involving a franchise that millions of people care about 1692 01:27:15,200 --> 01:27:19,320 Speaker 3: You're never made available, right. He talks at the combine, 1693 01:27:19,520 --> 01:27:22,360 Speaker 3: He talks at the mock turtle soup. He usually does 1694 01:27:22,360 --> 01:27:25,160 Speaker 3: a hit with the TV people during a preseason game 1695 01:27:25,240 --> 01:27:28,439 Speaker 3: and then a wall. You don't see him, you don't 1696 01:27:28,520 --> 01:27:31,640 Speaker 3: hear him, And for the most part, I'm okay with that. 1697 01:27:32,240 --> 01:27:35,760 Speaker 3: But to me, during a crisis time, especially when you're 1698 01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:38,160 Speaker 3: at your by, this is where I would say, you 1699 01:27:38,200 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 3: know what, folks have questions. I'll try to provide some answers. 1700 01:27:42,880 --> 01:27:44,840 Speaker 3: That's the person who should be talking this week. 1701 01:27:44,880 --> 01:27:46,800 Speaker 4: If there was ever a time that he did talk 1702 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:50,240 Speaker 4: sits Now. Yeah, what this team has done the last 1703 01:27:50,240 --> 01:27:51,960 Speaker 4: couple of weeks. You're on a buy. The roster is 1704 01:27:51,960 --> 01:27:55,640 Speaker 4: in disarray, and it's we already know what it is. 1705 01:27:55,680 --> 01:28:00,479 Speaker 4: It's gonna be radio silence, right. All we hear is 1706 01:28:00,520 --> 01:28:02,640 Speaker 4: what they want a first round it for head like. 1707 01:28:02,760 --> 01:28:05,200 Speaker 4: So they're just operating with business as usual. Uh huh, 1708 01:28:05,280 --> 01:28:09,160 Speaker 4: that's my problem. Identify there's a huge issue. Identify you're 1709 01:28:09,160 --> 01:28:11,960 Speaker 4: not going to the playoffs this year. Identify Trey Hendrickson's 1710 01:28:11,960 --> 01:28:13,920 Speaker 4: not going to be here next year, and get something 1711 01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:16,479 Speaker 4: in return for him. Do the same with Logan Wilson, 1712 01:28:16,560 --> 01:28:18,840 Speaker 4: who's not a part of your future, get something in 1713 01:28:18,880 --> 01:28:23,519 Speaker 4: return now instead of just this whole status quo. It's 1714 01:28:23,560 --> 01:28:26,760 Speaker 4: a bye, we're here, we're on to we're on to Pittsburgh, 1715 01:28:26,800 --> 01:28:30,240 Speaker 4: We're on to the second half of the schedule. Change 1716 01:28:30,280 --> 01:28:33,040 Speaker 4: it up at least, because that, to me would. 1717 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:34,840 Speaker 3: At least show urgency. 1718 01:28:34,960 --> 01:28:36,880 Speaker 4: It would at least show that someone in the in 1719 01:28:36,920 --> 01:28:40,599 Speaker 4: the building is identifying that, hey, hand up, what's going 1720 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:44,720 Speaker 4: on right now is wrong. Duke's gonna talk. We owe 1721 01:28:44,800 --> 01:28:47,160 Speaker 4: it to the media, We owe it to our fans. 1722 01:28:47,600 --> 01:28:50,920 Speaker 4: Like one of the hot button topics has been the 1723 01:28:50,920 --> 01:28:53,800 Speaker 4: season ticket renewals, one of the hot button topics has 1724 01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:58,000 Speaker 4: been the fans that are just so mad. I hope, 1725 01:28:58,120 --> 01:29:00,200 Speaker 4: I hope season tickets are sold out from the rest 1726 01:29:00,240 --> 01:29:02,559 Speaker 4: of my lifetime. But it would help that in an 1727 01:29:02,640 --> 01:29:07,240 Speaker 4: organization if Duke Tobin talks, because people want to know, like, 1728 01:29:07,840 --> 01:29:11,960 Speaker 4: what's the plan's accountability? What is like this isn't good enough? 1729 01:29:12,320 --> 01:29:14,600 Speaker 4: Can someone give me a little bit of the blueprint 1730 01:29:14,600 --> 01:29:16,639 Speaker 4: of what the plan is going forward that I can 1731 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:19,760 Speaker 4: stake my claim to, because right now all it. 1732 01:29:19,720 --> 01:29:22,639 Speaker 3: Is is who Joe and Jamar and Tey are here? 1733 01:29:23,200 --> 01:29:27,600 Speaker 3: Be happy. It's accountability. It's the owner never talks, and 1734 01:29:27,680 --> 01:29:30,040 Speaker 3: the person who works directly underneath the owner, who's in 1735 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:32,840 Speaker 3: charge of the roster, never talks. And again, I don't 1736 01:29:32,880 --> 01:29:35,920 Speaker 3: say this from my perspective enough. Duke Tobin wanted to 1737 01:29:35,920 --> 01:29:37,760 Speaker 3: come on the radio with me, That's fine, that ain't 1738 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:41,639 Speaker 3: gonna happen. But I just I look at it from 1739 01:29:41,680 --> 01:29:44,439 Speaker 3: if I were Duke Tobin, I'd be watching people take 1740 01:29:44,479 --> 01:29:47,080 Speaker 3: bullets for me. Yep, I gotta watch. And anyway, a 1741 01:29:47,080 --> 01:29:48,800 Speaker 3: lot of these players shouldn't be here. A lot of 1742 01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:51,439 Speaker 3: these players shouldn't have been here to begin with. Zach 1743 01:29:51,479 --> 01:29:55,559 Speaker 3: Taylor deserves every ounce of criticism coming his way. But 1744 01:29:55,600 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 3: at least those guys Zach Taylor has to talk every 1745 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,360 Speaker 3: single week, three times a week during season. The players 1746 01:30:01,400 --> 01:30:04,920 Speaker 3: they conduct reporters that they choose to but but they're 1747 01:30:05,200 --> 01:30:08,080 Speaker 3: at least there to be asked. They can politely decline. 1748 01:30:08,640 --> 01:30:10,360 Speaker 3: If I'm Duke Tobin, I go, you know what, We're 1749 01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:15,040 Speaker 3: halfway through the season. I was there to get the 1750 01:30:15,080 --> 01:30:17,240 Speaker 3: Executive of the Year award when we went to the 1751 01:30:17,280 --> 01:30:20,360 Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Now's my turn to eat some cheese, Now's 1752 01:30:20,360 --> 01:30:23,719 Speaker 3: my turn to show some accountability. He may offer answers 1753 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 3: that nobody likes. Chances are that would be the case, 1754 01:30:26,880 --> 01:30:32,439 Speaker 3: but that to me is frustrating. That that is because 1755 01:30:33,000 --> 01:30:35,360 Speaker 3: I said to you last week, I put myself in 1756 01:30:35,400 --> 01:30:37,880 Speaker 3: the position of Mike Brown with Duke Tobin sitting across 1757 01:30:37,880 --> 01:30:39,640 Speaker 3: from me, and I go, why can't you fix this? 1758 01:30:41,080 --> 01:30:43,920 Speaker 3: It would be neat to hear from Duke Tobin when asked, 1759 01:30:44,240 --> 01:30:45,960 Speaker 3: why can't get why can't you fix this? 1760 01:30:46,120 --> 01:30:49,280 Speaker 4: I just want I want to know that inside the 1761 01:30:49,320 --> 01:30:53,599 Speaker 4: walls of that facility things aren't status quo. I want 1762 01:30:53,600 --> 01:30:56,000 Speaker 4: to know that they are approaching things differently, whether that's 1763 01:30:56,000 --> 01:30:58,960 Speaker 4: a coach, whether it's a GM, whether it's a player. 1764 01:30:59,200 --> 01:31:01,360 Speaker 4: Can I hear from somebody that says, you know what 1765 01:31:01,760 --> 01:31:05,600 Speaker 4: today was different? A tone was set today. Things have 1766 01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:09,440 Speaker 4: to change. We're taking the steps necessary at the bare minimum. 1767 01:31:09,479 --> 01:31:11,920 Speaker 4: That's not hard to say, right Instead, it's well, ask 1768 01:31:11,960 --> 01:31:13,759 Speaker 4: the players, and then the player doesn't have a comment, 1769 01:31:13,960 --> 01:31:16,080 Speaker 4: and then you can't talk to Duke Tobin. So all 1770 01:31:16,080 --> 01:31:17,960 Speaker 4: you're left to do is just sit here and stew 1771 01:31:18,000 --> 01:31:22,040 Speaker 4: over the fact that this roster is terrible. The way 1772 01:31:22,040 --> 01:31:24,640 Speaker 4: they've been coached is bad. The way they've been constructed. 1773 01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:27,960 Speaker 4: The way they've drafted is awful, and no one talks, 1774 01:31:28,080 --> 01:31:30,479 Speaker 4: so you don't have an answer to anything. Now I'm 1775 01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:34,439 Speaker 4: watching mock drafts for twenty twenty six and thinking to myself, Wow, 1776 01:31:34,479 --> 01:31:36,919 Speaker 4: could they lay Land Caleb Downs at number nine. 1777 01:31:36,840 --> 01:31:39,839 Speaker 3: That's already what we're on to number nine. 1778 01:31:40,320 --> 01:31:42,599 Speaker 4: Number nine, there'd be the number nine overall pick right 1779 01:31:42,680 --> 01:31:46,519 Speaker 4: As of right now in the draft, I'm not quite. 1780 01:31:46,360 --> 01:31:49,040 Speaker 3: To the point where I'm starting to figure out what's 1781 01:31:49,080 --> 01:31:51,360 Speaker 3: the best draft pick they could get, but I'm pretty 1782 01:31:51,439 --> 01:31:54,439 Speaker 3: damn close. Yep, you want to talk about the rest 1783 01:31:54,439 --> 01:31:56,800 Speaker 3: of the NFL, I would like to. We'll do that 1784 01:31:56,800 --> 01:31:59,160 Speaker 3: when we changed years.

Baltimore on Monday. Here's 1815 01:33:33,160 --> 01:33:35,479 Speaker 3: what stood out to me. Yes, Lamar Jackson came back 1816 01:33:35,520 --> 01:33:38,719 Speaker 3: and he was terrific, But that defense, that much malign defense. 1817 01:33:38,760 --> 01:33:40,880 Speaker 3: Say which one about Miami? The first team in the 1818 01:33:41,000 --> 01:33:43,679 Speaker 3: NFL this season to hold opponents to seventeen or less 1819 01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:44,920 Speaker 3: in three straight games. 1820 01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:47,439 Speaker 4: You know, I think of yesterday in the AFC North, 1821 01:33:47,439 --> 01:33:49,639 Speaker 4: and I think of, obviously the bad defense that we've 1822 01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:52,719 Speaker 4: spent much of today talking about. Pittsburgh played great defense 1823 01:33:52,720 --> 01:33:55,400 Speaker 4: against Jonathan Taylor and Indy, and the Baltimore Ravens played 1824 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:58,320 Speaker 4: great defense in their game against the Miami Dolphins. Can 1825 01:33:58,360 --> 01:34:01,240 Speaker 4: talk about the offenses, talk about coming back. Like you said, 1826 01:34:01,800 --> 01:34:04,880 Speaker 4: the Steelers and the Ravens both invested heavily on the 1827 01:34:04,920 --> 01:34:07,439 Speaker 4: defensive side of the ball. It hadn't panned out much 1828 01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:09,479 Speaker 4: in the early part of the season, but as you 1829 01:34:09,479 --> 01:34:11,920 Speaker 4: start to get to this point, you start to see 1830 01:34:11,960 --> 01:34:15,120 Speaker 4: the coaching, you start to see the development of these players, 1831 01:34:15,479 --> 01:34:18,120 Speaker 4: and I think you're seeing that across the AFC North. 1832 01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:20,479 Speaker 4: Outside of what the Bengals are doing, you're seeing teams 1833 01:34:20,479 --> 01:34:24,000 Speaker 4: that are improving each week. You look at Baltimore's upcoming schedule, 1834 01:34:24,280 --> 01:34:27,000 Speaker 4: you see why they're a co favorite, and I thought Pittsburgh, 1835 01:34:27,000 --> 01:34:30,080 Speaker 4: we talked about this yesterday when we kind of picked games. 1836 01:34:30,600 --> 01:34:33,320 Speaker 4: Yesterday felt like a game to me that Mike Tomlin 1837 01:34:33,400 --> 01:34:35,479 Speaker 4: shouldn't win but always finds a way to win. Yeah, 1838 01:34:35,520 --> 01:34:38,360 Speaker 4: and then you talk about Pittsburgh finding their footing on 1839 01:34:38,360 --> 01:34:41,320 Speaker 4: the defensive side of the ball. It's frustrating to watch 1840 01:34:41,840 --> 01:34:47,160 Speaker 4: because you see teams develop, developing players, developing schemes, making 1841 01:34:47,200 --> 01:34:51,320 Speaker 4: adjustments as the season goes on. And I thought that 1842 01:34:51,640 --> 01:34:53,640 Speaker 4: the Ravens and the Steeler should both be applauded for that. 1843 01:34:53,760 --> 01:34:57,040 Speaker 3: So Pittsburgh fans yesterday outside the stadium held a funeral 1844 01:34:57,120 --> 01:35:01,519 Speaker 3: for the Steelers defense. The defense respond against Indianapolis is 1845 01:35:01,600 --> 01:35:03,880 Speaker 3: statistically the best offense in the league. You know, we 1846 01:35:03,880 --> 01:35:05,760 Speaker 3: could talk about whether or not we really are buying 1847 01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:07,439 Speaker 3: into Daniel Jones, but they came into that game and 1848 01:35:07,520 --> 01:35:09,920 Speaker 3: we talked about it yesterday. Statistically the best offense in 1849 01:35:09,920 --> 01:35:13,880 Speaker 3: the league. And the Steelers had five sacks and six takeaways. 1850 01:35:14,040 --> 01:35:15,879 Speaker 3: And that's the Bengals next opponent. 1851 01:35:16,040 --> 01:35:19,120 Speaker 4: Do you think a funeral by the fans or a 1852 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:20,960 Speaker 4: players only meeting is more effective? 1853 01:35:21,240 --> 01:35:23,240 Speaker 3: Well, what's the gimmick this week? What can we do 1854 01:35:23,479 --> 01:35:25,680 Speaker 3: to help what can we do? So this week, I'm 1855 01:35:25,720 --> 01:35:29,479 Speaker 3: guessing the gimmick is self scout. Oh yeah, right, yeah, 1856 01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:31,559 Speaker 3: self scout. Look at the tape, look at the tate. 1857 01:35:31,680 --> 01:35:34,200 Speaker 3: Have the offensive coaches look at the defense, which, by 1858 01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:36,120 Speaker 3: the way, I'm in favor of sure, because it feels 1859 01:35:36,160 --> 01:35:38,000 Speaker 3: like the offensive coaches kind of know what they're doing. 1860 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:40,680 Speaker 3: The offensive coaches look at the defense, and then you 1861 01:35:40,760 --> 01:35:44,840 Speaker 3: have the defensive stath do some self scouting of Joe Flack. 1862 01:35:44,840 --> 01:35:45,840 Speaker 3: How do you think that would look. 1863 01:35:47,479 --> 01:35:50,800 Speaker 4: I've never, like we said this earlier, I've never heard 1864 01:35:51,000 --> 01:35:53,919 Speaker 4: during a broadcast one of the members of the broadcast 1865 01:35:53,960 --> 01:35:56,680 Speaker 4: being so critical of the team's yes, coaching, yeah, and 1866 01:35:56,720 --> 01:36:01,640 Speaker 4: scheme as Adam Rcheletti, Yes, was very critical of what 1867 01:36:01,720 --> 01:36:04,320 Speaker 4: are they doing? You're slanting this way, and you're leaving 1868 01:36:04,360 --> 01:36:07,599 Speaker 4: this open, You're you're running and lining up here. If 1869 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:12,280 Speaker 4: if an analyst who's calling the game is being that critical, 1870 01:36:12,880 --> 01:36:16,439 Speaker 4: it is insane how bad it is? So yes, any 1871 01:36:16,479 --> 01:36:21,280 Speaker 4: self scouting, Hey, maybe let's try this. Maybe don't put 1872 01:36:21,280 --> 01:36:24,000 Speaker 4: your guys in this situation. Maybe number twenty two doesn't 1873 01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:25,320 Speaker 4: have to be on the field for one hundred percent 1874 01:36:25,320 --> 01:36:29,679 Speaker 4: of the snaps. Some of those things. Maybe number ninety 1875 01:36:29,680 --> 01:36:32,280 Speaker 4: seven should be in a different position. Perhaps, is there 1876 01:36:32,320 --> 01:36:34,240 Speaker 4: anywhere else on the field that he can play that 1877 01:36:34,360 --> 01:36:37,320 Speaker 4: defensive or offensive lineman can't make highlight tape reels about. 1878 01:36:37,160 --> 01:36:40,360 Speaker 3: Him, so you could do the self scouting gimmick. They 1879 01:36:40,360 --> 01:36:43,080 Speaker 3: haven't taken the ping pong table out yet. That hasn't 1880 01:36:43,080 --> 01:36:45,120 Speaker 3: been a thing. Got be next. You would think maybe 1881 01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:47,840 Speaker 3: during the bye that that that'll be it. I wonder 1882 01:36:47,880 --> 01:36:53,120 Speaker 3: if they take this week and separate the locker rooms like, well, 1883 01:36:53,160 --> 01:36:55,920 Speaker 3: you told me once your defensive coordinator Joe Tracy. Yeah, 1884 01:36:55,960 --> 01:36:56,639 Speaker 3: they made him. 1885 01:36:56,560 --> 01:36:59,360 Speaker 4: Shower until the defense played better. 1886 01:36:59,439 --> 01:37:01,640 Speaker 3: So maybe they can do something similar with just all 1887 01:37:01,680 --> 01:37:02,599 Speaker 3: the defensive players. 1888 01:37:02,640 --> 01:37:04,639 Speaker 4: I just wonder, like players get a couple days off, 1889 01:37:04,680 --> 01:37:07,360 Speaker 4: they come back in and then there's like two different doors. 1890 01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:10,839 Speaker 4: One says defense, one says offense, and then that way 1891 01:37:11,120 --> 01:37:15,960 Speaker 4: we can avoid again. I don't the tension in those 1892 01:37:16,000 --> 01:37:20,920 Speaker 4: postgame comments yesterday. Holy cow, Yes, that would be my 1893 01:37:20,960 --> 01:37:23,479 Speaker 4: first order of business. How can we separate these sides 1894 01:37:23,520 --> 01:37:25,720 Speaker 4: in that way they don't have to interact with each 1895 01:37:25,720 --> 01:37:29,679 Speaker 4: other all week. Yeah, practice on different fields. One team 1896 01:37:29,920 --> 01:37:33,559 Speaker 4: offense is in the bubble today. Defenses outside scout teams 1897 01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:35,800 Speaker 4: go accordingly. Don't even let them see each other. 1898 01:37:36,240 --> 01:37:38,719 Speaker 3: Which team in the AFC North will finish the last 1899 01:37:38,800 --> 01:37:42,880 Speaker 3: The Browns didn't play yesterday. Cleveland two and six, Cincinnati 1900 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:46,000 Speaker 3: three and six. This is awful. This is where we are. 1901 01:37:46,120 --> 01:37:47,080 Speaker 3: I think it's the Bengals. 1902 01:37:47,320 --> 01:37:53,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, like out of the by Pittsburgh, New England, Baltimore, Buffalo, Baltimore. 1903 01:37:56,560 --> 01:37:58,040 Speaker 3: They won't be favored in any of those. 1904 01:37:58,120 --> 01:38:04,000 Speaker 4: No, no, they they just made in my like to me, 1905 01:38:04,840 --> 01:38:08,200 Speaker 4: they made Justin Fields and Caleb Williams make me think 1906 01:38:08,240 --> 01:38:09,880 Speaker 4: Tom Brady was coming on the field at the last 1907 01:38:09,920 --> 01:38:10,519 Speaker 4: drive of the game. 1908 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,120 Speaker 3: It wasn't just that it was the Bears with what 1909 01:38:13,160 --> 01:38:15,360 Speaker 3: they were doing. They had four different players throw passes. 1910 01:38:15,640 --> 01:38:21,040 Speaker 4: The best player didn't have a catch and all, by 1911 01:38:21,040 --> 01:38:23,200 Speaker 4: the way, their starting running back was out and the 1912 01:38:23,280 --> 01:38:28,320 Speaker 4: running back that played that's the seventh round pick that 1913 01:38:28,360 --> 01:38:31,880 Speaker 4: the Bengals sent them last year from Khalil Herbert. That 1914 01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:36,439 Speaker 4: is the ultimate ultimate kicking the groin. And if you 1915 01:38:36,479 --> 01:38:40,240 Speaker 4: look at the upcoming schedule again, justin Fields and Caleb Williams. 1916 01:38:40,320 --> 01:38:42,080 Speaker 4: I had a double take because I thought Brady was 1917 01:38:42,160 --> 01:38:45,960 Speaker 4: running on the field with a minute left, right, what's Rogers? 1918 01:38:46,120 --> 01:38:48,760 Speaker 4: We already saw what Rogers did against this defense. Drake 1919 01:38:48,840 --> 01:38:52,720 Speaker 4: may Lamar Jackson twice and Josh Allen went over the 1920 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:55,439 Speaker 4: next five is a game that you can go into 1921 01:38:55,680 --> 01:38:57,960 Speaker 4: because as bad as it's been against the Jets and 1922 01:38:58,000 --> 01:39:00,760 Speaker 4: the Bears, you still went into that game saying, I 1923 01:39:00,800 --> 01:39:02,920 Speaker 4: can see the path they win. I don't know the 1924 01:39:02,960 --> 01:39:06,879 Speaker 4: path in the next five agreed, and Cleveland agreed. Great defense, 1925 01:39:07,000 --> 01:39:09,479 Speaker 4: but at least they're playing with something now. Defense is 1926 01:39:09,520 --> 01:39:13,240 Speaker 4: spectacular and they're gonna try some young quarterbacks. We've talked 1927 01:39:13,320 --> 01:39:15,400 Speaker 4: multiple times this year that it feels like from a 1928 01:39:15,520 --> 01:39:19,160 Speaker 4: draft process alone, they got it right with their picks. 1929 01:39:19,760 --> 01:39:24,400 Speaker 4: So it's crazy. But as we sit here on November three, 1930 01:39:25,200 --> 01:39:28,400 Speaker 4: I probably trust the Browns organization to figure it out 1931 01:39:28,400 --> 01:39:29,799 Speaker 4: more down the stretch than the Bengals. 1932 01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:31,679 Speaker 3: I think I do as well. Do you have any 1933 01:39:31,720 --> 01:39:34,400 Speaker 3: major takeaway from the game between Buffalo and Kansas City? 1934 01:39:35,320 --> 01:39:38,880 Speaker 4: No, because you see, like what at five and one, 1935 01:39:38,920 --> 01:39:41,559 Speaker 4: now Allen against Mahomes in the regular season, regular season? Yeah, 1936 01:39:41,680 --> 01:39:42,920 Speaker 4: what's it? What's it added up to? 1937 01:39:43,400 --> 01:39:44,759 Speaker 3: Nothing? Nothing? Yeah? 1938 01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:46,960 Speaker 4: Like, this is the Chiefs and it's who they are. 1939 01:39:47,120 --> 01:39:49,160 Speaker 4: They're gonna grow from it, They're gonna learn from it. 1940 01:39:49,400 --> 01:39:51,599 Speaker 4: I thought it was good that Josh Allen got going 1941 01:39:51,640 --> 01:39:54,400 Speaker 4: a little bit. Yeah, he was terrific and it was fantastic, 1942 01:39:54,760 --> 01:39:58,080 Speaker 4: But there are there are questions about that. I mean 1943 01:39:58,320 --> 01:40:02,440 Speaker 4: receivers and the separation in which can get the consistency 1944 01:40:03,000 --> 01:40:05,479 Speaker 4: in the running game, the defense, and they've gone through injuries. 1945 01:40:06,160 --> 01:40:09,440 Speaker 4: I still trust Kansas City will be there come playoffs. 1946 01:40:10,080 --> 01:40:14,599 Speaker 4: And it's another edition of a good regular season win 1947 01:40:14,640 --> 01:40:15,960 Speaker 4: for Buffalo over Kansas City. 1948 01:40:16,160 --> 01:40:18,919 Speaker 3: So I will admit to you because of our travel schedule. 1949 01:40:19,280 --> 01:40:22,519 Speaker 3: You know, we got in at six fifteen yesterday morning, 1950 01:40:22,600 --> 01:40:25,439 Speaker 3: back from Salt Lake City, went and got breakfast, shout 1951 01:40:25,439 --> 01:40:28,000 Speaker 3: out to the merl Anger, Kentucky waffle House. After them, 1952 01:40:28,200 --> 01:40:30,559 Speaker 3: went to the Holy Grail, did our show with Ken Brew, 1953 01:40:30,640 --> 01:40:32,719 Speaker 3: and then I went home out to Steve from Charlotte. 1954 01:40:32,760 --> 01:40:35,400 Speaker 3: Steve from Charlotte. We haven't mentioned the Steve from Charlotte 1955 01:40:35,479 --> 01:40:36,400 Speaker 3: yesterday brought us. 1956 01:40:37,640 --> 01:40:40,160 Speaker 4: It's the nicest bourbon gift I've ever received, without question, 1957 01:40:40,320 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 4: maybe one of the nicest gifts I've ever received. 1958 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:46,080 Speaker 3: Twelve year Van Winkle reserves. Unbelievable. Yeah, unbelievable, Like we 1959 01:40:46,120 --> 01:40:47,519 Speaker 3: looked up yesterday what you could. 1960 01:40:47,640 --> 01:40:51,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, but that didn't give it an ask for anything, 1961 01:40:51,560 --> 01:40:53,639 Speaker 4: like just he gave it to us while we were 1962 01:40:53,720 --> 01:40:55,720 Speaker 4: on the air. Yeah, didn't even hang around, walked in, 1963 01:40:55,800 --> 01:40:57,880 Speaker 4: gave it to us. Couldn't wait around to the break. 1964 01:40:58,200 --> 01:41:00,799 Speaker 3: So Steve and Charlotte, Steve calls your a lot, Steven 1965 01:41:00,880 --> 01:41:03,479 Speaker 3: Charlotte that we cannot thank you enough. This is one 1966 01:41:03,479 --> 01:41:05,200 Speaker 3: of those where like, I don't know when I'm going 1967 01:41:05,240 --> 01:41:05,720 Speaker 3: to open it. 1968 01:41:06,160 --> 01:41:07,800 Speaker 4: I was thinking of that today because I'm like, I've 1969 01:41:07,800 --> 01:41:10,760 Speaker 4: had all my kids, just went into the Hall of Fame, 1970 01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:14,639 Speaker 4: I've been married, you know what, Like when is when 1971 01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:17,000 Speaker 4: is the next monumental thing that you would even think 1972 01:41:17,000 --> 01:41:17,599 Speaker 4: to open a bottle? 1973 01:41:17,680 --> 01:41:19,559 Speaker 3: Like Bengals are not going to win the Super Bowl. 1974 01:41:19,640 --> 01:41:23,280 Speaker 3: If you see wins the Big Twelve. Okay, if you 1975 01:41:23,320 --> 01:41:24,200 Speaker 3: see wins the Big if. 1976 01:41:24,160 --> 01:41:27,160 Speaker 4: They're playing in Dallas for the Big twelve title, I'll 1977 01:41:27,200 --> 01:41:28,000 Speaker 4: poor glass. 1978 01:41:29,080 --> 01:41:33,439 Speaker 3: So anyway, I went to bed early, and I didn't 1979 01:41:33,439 --> 01:41:35,679 Speaker 3: watch any of the Sunday night football game. I woke 1980 01:41:35,760 --> 01:41:37,519 Speaker 3: up this morning and I saw the Jade and Daniels, 1981 01:41:37,560 --> 01:41:41,200 Speaker 3: who I love watching, has a dislocated left elbit. I've 1982 01:41:41,200 --> 01:41:43,320 Speaker 3: seen the replay down. Why I was in the football game, 1983 01:41:43,360 --> 01:41:45,080 Speaker 3: Why was he in the game. Now. Connor Or of 1984 01:41:45,080 --> 01:41:47,920 Speaker 3: Sports Illustrated has a piece out today sort of outlining 1985 01:41:47,920 --> 01:41:51,400 Speaker 3: that coaches, for the most part leave their guys in, 1986 01:41:51,800 --> 01:41:53,920 Speaker 3: leave their quarterbacks. And that doesn't mean that it was right. 1987 01:41:53,960 --> 01:41:55,880 Speaker 3: It was a thirty one point game in the fourth quarter, 1988 01:41:55,920 --> 01:41:58,720 Speaker 3: it was over. Dan Quinn's a smart guy. I think 1989 01:41:58,760 --> 01:42:02,120 Speaker 3: a good coach who in their right mind would allow 1990 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,160 Speaker 3: the franchise to be in the game at that point. 1991 01:42:04,200 --> 01:42:05,120 Speaker 3: I mean you and I you. 1992 01:42:05,400 --> 01:42:07,920 Speaker 4: On the broadcast Saturday night, we were talking with Brendan Sorsby. 1993 01:42:08,360 --> 01:42:10,280 Speaker 4: Is it time to pull Sworsby? Yes, because you still 1994 01:42:10,320 --> 01:42:13,520 Speaker 4: got so much of your season ahead that Washington team. 1995 01:42:13,800 --> 01:42:15,320 Speaker 4: It almost feels like the Bengals of a couple of 1996 01:42:15,400 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 4: years back, where there's a lot of preseason hype based 1997 01:42:18,200 --> 01:42:20,360 Speaker 4: on what they did the year before, and it feels 1998 01:42:20,360 --> 01:42:22,439 Speaker 4: like their season's never gotten off the ground. No, and 1999 01:42:22,479 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 4: now kind of feels like it never will. 2000 01:42:24,760 --> 01:42:25,280 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2001 01:42:25,320 --> 01:42:28,120 Speaker 4: And on the other side of it, Sam Donald and 2002 01:42:28,120 --> 01:42:30,040 Speaker 4: the Seahawks might be dangerous in the NFC. 2003 01:42:30,880 --> 01:42:34,160 Speaker 3: Very good defense. Yes, Sam Donald's resurgence continue. They can 2004 01:42:34,160 --> 01:42:35,960 Speaker 3: host the playoff game. They don't run the ball at all, 2005 01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:37,360 Speaker 3: They do have the twelfth man. They went on the 2006 01:42:37,439 --> 01:42:40,559 Speaker 3: road last night. Yeah, they're fun. But for the life 2007 01:42:40,600 --> 01:42:44,040 Speaker 3: of me, I cannot understand why Jade Bracles was in 2008 01:42:44,080 --> 01:42:46,880 Speaker 3: the football game. Nope, the Patriots are seven and two. 2009 01:42:47,400 --> 01:42:49,120 Speaker 3: Pats are good man. You know you talk about like 2010 01:42:49,160 --> 01:42:52,000 Speaker 3: games that when the schedule came out we either overlooked 2011 01:42:52,080 --> 01:42:54,240 Speaker 3: or chalked up as a win. Yeah, Drake May, we 2012 01:42:54,320 --> 01:42:57,760 Speaker 3: just alluded to this, Drake May against the Cincinnati secondary tool. 2013 01:42:58,160 --> 01:43:00,360 Speaker 4: He's m saying, at such an unbelievable level, much as 2014 01:43:00,360 --> 01:43:03,519 Speaker 4: they love to throw it long, yep, good luck. We 2015 01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:06,639 Speaker 4: touched on it yesterday too. With the Patriots. They're winning. 2016 01:43:07,280 --> 01:43:09,840 Speaker 4: Some would say maybe ahead of schedule. Yeah, and what 2017 01:43:09,880 --> 01:43:11,880 Speaker 4: did they do last week? They moved on from two 2018 01:43:11,880 --> 01:43:15,479 Speaker 4: players on their roster to start thinking about, Okay, we're 2019 01:43:15,479 --> 01:43:17,360 Speaker 4: gonna nail this down. We're also going to make sure 2020 01:43:17,360 --> 01:43:20,320 Speaker 4: we're we are securing ourselves. 2021 01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:20,439 Speaker 3: For the future. 2022 01:43:20,479 --> 01:43:22,479 Speaker 4: Yeah, Doug or Kyle Dugart doesn't have a role here. 2023 01:43:22,880 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 4: Let's move on from him and get some value in 2024 01:43:25,360 --> 01:43:28,719 Speaker 4: return to a desperate team, and then we'll stockpile more picks. 2025 01:43:28,840 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 4: They don't have to use those picks on an actual draft. 2026 01:43:31,400 --> 01:43:33,280 Speaker 4: You could take those picks and package them with something 2027 01:43:33,320 --> 01:43:36,080 Speaker 4: and move to get a player sometime as well. So 2028 01:43:36,680 --> 01:43:39,439 Speaker 4: to me, it's the forward thinking of man. I love 2029 01:43:39,520 --> 01:43:41,200 Speaker 4: where we're at right now. We're living in the moment, 2030 01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:43,960 Speaker 4: but let's also look to the future and think, Okay, 2031 01:43:44,000 --> 01:43:47,519 Speaker 4: can we can we acquire picks which can return be 2032 01:43:47,640 --> 01:43:49,560 Speaker 4: more players, or maybe package those picks and get a 2033 01:43:49,880 --> 01:43:53,320 Speaker 4: proven player. It's just a very impressive way in which 2034 01:43:53,320 --> 01:43:54,759 Speaker 4: are going about their their business. 2035 01:43:54,800 --> 01:43:57,800 Speaker 3: Are you ready for the contractually obligated airing of Zach 2036 01:43:57,840 --> 01:44:01,400 Speaker 3: Taylor's Monday prescot.

This is 2068 01:45:46,320 --> 01:45:47,760 Speaker 3: the best way to do it. This is I think 2069 01:45:47,800 --> 01:45:49,439 Speaker 3: that this is the best way to do it, especially 2070 01:45:49,560 --> 01:45:51,320 Speaker 3: when you know it's going to be a long press conference. 2071 01:45:51,320 --> 01:45:53,240 Speaker 4: But also it can happen and then I don't have 2072 01:45:53,320 --> 01:45:55,360 Speaker 4: to say anything else about it, Like I don't have 2073 01:45:55,439 --> 01:45:58,200 Speaker 4: to react because I've already read the quotes and I'm 2074 01:45:58,200 --> 01:46:00,360 Speaker 4: already angry about enough of it that we can just 2075 01:46:00,400 --> 01:46:02,599 Speaker 4: play this and then the show's over and I can 2076 01:46:02,720 --> 01:46:04,799 Speaker 4: just stew on it and then talk about it tomorrow. 2077 01:46:05,040 --> 01:46:08,200 Speaker 3: Right, So we've made the decision to eric in its 2078 01:46:08,439 --> 01:46:11,519 Speaker 3: entirety now instead of at three o'clock. Also, when we 2079 01:46:11,640 --> 01:46:13,479 Speaker 3: run it at three o'clock, it kind of screws up 2080 01:46:13,479 --> 01:46:16,800 Speaker 3: the clock and it gets weird.

I mean for us, it's 2098 01:47:15,200 --> 01:47:16,160 Speaker 9: we got to execute better. 2099 01:47:16,240 --> 01:47:17,920 Speaker 10: Obviously, we got to get everybody on the same page 2100 01:47:17,960 --> 01:47:20,639 Speaker 10: and execute the fundamentals and the details of what we're 2101 01:47:20,640 --> 01:47:21,040 Speaker 10: trying to do. 2102 01:47:21,880 --> 01:47:24,519 Speaker 9: And I think everyone's in favor of that, and everyone 2103 01:47:24,880 --> 01:47:25,519 Speaker 9: wants to do that. 2104 01:47:25,800 --> 01:47:27,400 Speaker 10: We just we haven't done a great job of that, 2105 01:47:28,360 --> 01:47:30,240 Speaker 10: especially over the last couple of weeks, and so we're 2106 01:47:30,240 --> 01:47:32,240 Speaker 10: all accountable for that. That's what we'll spend our why 2107 01:47:32,280 --> 01:47:34,600 Speaker 10: we're doing as coaches, trying to find a way to 2108 01:47:34,840 --> 01:47:36,679 Speaker 10: get everybody to play on the same page all the time. 2109 01:47:37,640 --> 01:47:39,040 Speaker 10: We've got a lot of young players that are out 2110 01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:41,080 Speaker 10: there at the same time, and so getting those guys 2111 01:47:41,160 --> 01:47:44,559 Speaker 10: the experience they need together is only going to make 2112 01:47:44,640 --> 01:47:46,800 Speaker 10: us better in the future, and so again we're just 2113 01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:47,680 Speaker 10: working through all that. 2114 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:49,240 Speaker 9: Guys are all accountable for it. 2115 01:47:49,720 --> 01:47:52,519 Speaker 10: Everybody wants to play winning defense, winning football, winning team, football, 2116 01:47:52,520 --> 01:47:53,719 Speaker 10: winning offense, all that stuff. 2117 01:47:53,800 --> 01:47:56,640 Speaker 9: So that's what we'll continue to try to do. 2118 01:47:57,040 --> 01:48:00,160 Speaker 11: You consider any staff changes for the past hours, No, 2119 01:48:00,479 --> 01:48:01,800 Speaker 11: what gives you the belief. 2120 01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:04,600 Speaker 10: That these these are good football coaches. They've been successful 2121 01:48:05,040 --> 01:48:08,280 Speaker 10: everywhere they've been. And so again, we're still in the 2122 01:48:08,360 --> 01:48:10,240 Speaker 10: first half of the season. We all know we got 2123 01:48:10,320 --> 01:48:12,599 Speaker 10: to play better as a football team. There's been challenges 2124 01:48:12,680 --> 01:48:15,559 Speaker 10: or offenses faced of course the season, we worked through them. 2125 01:48:15,720 --> 01:48:18,320 Speaker 10: We're playing better for it. There's challenges or defense they're 2126 01:48:18,320 --> 01:48:20,400 Speaker 10: facing right now. I'm confident that we're going to work 2127 01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:22,519 Speaker 10: through it. We're going to play better football and find 2128 01:48:22,560 --> 01:48:22,840 Speaker 10: a way to. 2129 01:48:22,840 --> 01:48:23,320 Speaker 9: Win some games. 2130 01:48:23,880 --> 01:48:26,720 Speaker 12: Follow up on that, can you clarify you don't plan 2131 01:48:26,800 --> 01:48:28,720 Speaker 12: to make any stuff change on the defensive side of 2132 01:48:28,720 --> 01:48:28,960 Speaker 12: the ball. 2133 01:48:29,040 --> 01:48:29,080 Speaker 3: No. 2134 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:32,000 Speaker 10: I believe in these guys absolutely, and so we'll continue 2135 01:48:32,000 --> 01:48:33,200 Speaker 10: to work through it and find solutions. 2136 01:48:33,400 --> 01:48:36,640 Speaker 11: You just elaborate a little bit on what you're seeing behind. 2137 01:48:36,400 --> 01:48:38,680 Speaker 12: The scenes from a week two week basis from al 2138 01:48:38,800 --> 01:48:39,360 Speaker 12: that gives. 2139 01:48:39,160 --> 01:48:42,280 Speaker 10: You, Yeah, working like crazy. He's a great football coach. 2140 01:48:42,800 --> 01:48:45,880 Speaker 10: He's doing everything he can to uncover every single stone 2141 01:48:45,920 --> 01:48:49,679 Speaker 10: to make us play better. I mean, we're all sick 2142 01:48:49,800 --> 01:48:52,040 Speaker 10: for the way that these games are gone him probably 2143 01:48:52,200 --> 01:48:55,040 Speaker 10: as much as anybody else on this planet. And so 2144 01:48:55,320 --> 01:48:58,160 Speaker 10: I trust in him, trusting his staff that we're going 2145 01:48:58,240 --> 01:49:00,280 Speaker 10: to keep working and get all these guys on the 2146 01:49:00,280 --> 01:49:02,760 Speaker 10: same page, executing at a high level, and be a 2147 01:49:02,800 --> 01:49:03,800 Speaker 10: good defense going forward. 2148 01:49:04,479 --> 01:49:06,799 Speaker 8: So I've been through a lot of trick plays, misdirection screens, 2149 01:49:06,800 --> 01:49:08,360 Speaker 8: all that kind of stuff that you, guys, what can 2150 01:49:08,400 --> 01:49:10,799 Speaker 8: the defense do better against those types of plays? 2151 01:49:10,960 --> 01:49:12,800 Speaker 10: Well, you got to be Again, they're waiting for a 2152 01:49:12,840 --> 01:49:14,559 Speaker 10: first first down, so we got to be better early 2153 01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:16,320 Speaker 10: in the drive to take that stuff away from them. 2154 01:49:16,400 --> 01:49:17,720 Speaker 10: So when you get into a rhythm, that's when you 2155 01:49:17,720 --> 01:49:18,800 Speaker 10: feel most comfortable calling that. 2156 01:49:18,840 --> 01:49:19,320 Speaker 9: Kind of stuff. 2157 01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:21,760 Speaker 10: Obviously, they felt like they got into rhythm and threw 2158 01:49:21,800 --> 01:49:25,200 Speaker 10: a lot at us. So again, it's it was reminiscent 2159 01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:26,840 Speaker 10: really the twenty nineteen to forty nine Ers game in 2160 01:49:26,880 --> 01:49:28,160 Speaker 10: the Week two they did a lot of that kind 2161 01:49:28,160 --> 01:49:30,120 Speaker 10: of stuff too, and so it kind of took me 2162 01:49:30,200 --> 01:49:31,719 Speaker 10: back there. A lot of the same stuff you're seeing 2163 01:49:33,160 --> 01:49:35,639 Speaker 10: it's a really good staff. I mean, they're as creative 2164 01:49:35,640 --> 01:49:38,240 Speaker 10: as it gets, and they really challenge you and put 2165 01:49:38,280 --> 01:49:40,320 Speaker 10: you in a lot of buyings. And obviously a lot 2166 01:49:40,320 --> 01:49:41,799 Speaker 10: of these things worked for them yesterday. 2167 01:49:42,160 --> 01:49:43,800 Speaker 13: That's been the most concerning thing you've seen from the 2168 01:49:43,840 --> 01:49:44,920 Speaker 13: defense for the last two weeks. 2169 01:49:45,000 --> 01:49:47,360 Speaker 10: I think we just have to be great tacklers and 2170 01:49:47,560 --> 01:49:50,519 Speaker 10: just execute a fundamentals is a high level. So there's 2171 01:49:50,640 --> 01:49:53,640 Speaker 10: plenty of times where it's ten guys doing exactly what 2172 01:49:53,760 --> 01:49:56,280 Speaker 10: we need them to do and one guy outside of 2173 01:49:56,280 --> 01:49:57,960 Speaker 10: his laying and giving up a big, big run or 2174 01:49:57,960 --> 01:50:01,400 Speaker 10: a big rush. And so again it's just we've got 2175 01:50:01,479 --> 01:50:03,519 Speaker 10: a mixture of some veteran guys, we've got a mixture 2176 01:50:03,520 --> 01:50:05,479 Speaker 10: of a lot of young guys in there, and they're 2177 01:50:05,520 --> 01:50:07,840 Speaker 10: green together, and we've got to get that experience ramped 2178 01:50:07,920 --> 01:50:10,720 Speaker 10: up very quickly. I trust that we can do it. 2179 01:50:10,840 --> 01:50:12,519 Speaker 10: We're going to continue to work to do it and 2180 01:50:12,640 --> 01:50:13,719 Speaker 10: find a way to get some stops. 2181 01:50:13,920 --> 01:50:18,040 Speaker 14: You obviously just out for your entire defensive staff. Yeah, 2182 01:50:18,400 --> 01:50:20,400 Speaker 14: I know you're not going to give us exactly what 2183 01:50:20,520 --> 01:50:22,960 Speaker 14: conversations have been like. But when it comes to to 2184 01:50:23,040 --> 01:50:25,400 Speaker 14: do to men or ownership, and they've said it are 2185 01:50:25,439 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 14: they confident in the defensive side. 2186 01:50:27,560 --> 01:50:29,880 Speaker 10: I should not speak for anybody. We have great staff, 2187 01:50:30,040 --> 01:50:33,360 Speaker 10: great great conversations. Everyone's on the same page that we 2188 01:50:33,479 --> 01:50:35,439 Speaker 10: just want to win and we want to look good 2189 01:50:35,439 --> 01:50:38,519 Speaker 10: when we're winning. And so yeah, there's nobody that that 2190 01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:40,760 Speaker 10: lacks accountability in any area. We're all just trying to 2191 01:50:40,800 --> 01:50:42,400 Speaker 10: do everything we can to get better. But I'm certainly 2192 01:50:42,439 --> 01:50:43,280 Speaker 10: not gonna speak for anybody. 2193 01:50:43,320 --> 01:50:47,679 Speaker 15: What about looking for different answers, looking for different Yeah. 2194 01:50:47,520 --> 01:50:50,000 Speaker 10: I mean, yeah, that would that would that would infer 2195 01:50:50,080 --> 01:50:52,240 Speaker 10: that we're not looking for different answers. I mean we're 2196 01:50:52,640 --> 01:50:54,800 Speaker 10: always spend every single waking moment is trying to find 2197 01:50:54,800 --> 01:50:57,880 Speaker 10: a solution to play better and be able to go 2198 01:50:57,920 --> 01:50:58,439 Speaker 10: win games. 2199 01:50:58,479 --> 01:51:00,600 Speaker 9: And and that's that's what we're going to continue to do. 2200 01:51:00,800 --> 01:51:03,479 Speaker 15: Do you think the young players, and you have a 2201 01:51:03,560 --> 01:51:06,040 Speaker 15: number of them on the roster e or first, second, 2202 01:51:06,120 --> 01:51:09,840 Speaker 15: or thirty of year players feel the way the significance 2203 01:51:10,040 --> 01:51:11,800 Speaker 15: of the season slipping away and we. 2204 01:51:11,880 --> 01:51:14,320 Speaker 10: Came well, we've talked about it, We've talked about this. 2205 01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:16,360 Speaker 10: This can't be a last season for us. This has 2206 01:51:16,400 --> 01:51:17,400 Speaker 10: got to be We got to come out of this, 2207 01:51:17,520 --> 01:51:22,439 Speaker 10: buy rejuvenated and find a way to win, and winning 2208 01:51:22,520 --> 01:51:24,719 Speaker 10: one game certainly propels you, and you've got to build 2209 01:51:24,760 --> 01:51:26,400 Speaker 10: some momentum off of that. We had a chance after 2210 01:51:26,439 --> 01:51:29,400 Speaker 10: the Pittsburgh game and kind of wasted two opportunities there, 2211 01:51:30,000 --> 01:51:31,760 Speaker 10: and how much different things could have been if we 2212 01:51:31,800 --> 01:51:33,799 Speaker 10: had finished these two games out. We'd still have issues 2213 01:51:33,880 --> 01:51:36,160 Speaker 10: we have to address, but we'd be in a better position. 2214 01:51:36,360 --> 01:51:37,479 Speaker 10: And so we just got to find a way to 2215 01:51:37,560 --> 01:51:40,439 Speaker 10: kickstart that and build our own mimentium there. So we 2216 01:51:40,520 --> 01:51:43,280 Speaker 10: got players young and old that are accountable. They all 2217 01:51:43,360 --> 01:51:46,080 Speaker 10: want to do well. They're all again I say this 2218 01:51:46,120 --> 01:51:47,360 Speaker 10: a lot, they're all made of the right stuff. We 2219 01:51:47,439 --> 01:51:49,640 Speaker 10: have a good locker room. I know yesterday there is 2220 01:51:50,000 --> 01:51:52,479 Speaker 10: frustrated and emotional after a game like that. That's not 2221 01:51:52,600 --> 01:51:56,080 Speaker 10: to be unexpected. But we'll just continue to get back 2222 01:51:56,080 --> 01:51:56,880 Speaker 10: to work and keep grinding. 2223 01:51:57,200 --> 01:51:59,320 Speaker 11: Do you feel like the solutions are still in this building? 2224 01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:01,080 Speaker 9: Absolutely? Absolutely, I do. 2225 01:52:02,080 --> 01:52:05,439 Speaker 11: When you talk about tackling, I'm sure from day one 2226 01:52:05,479 --> 01:52:06,519 Speaker 11: to day two hundred, where. 2227 01:52:06,360 --> 01:52:09,439 Speaker 3: We're right now it's wrapping up, you still got guys. 2228 01:52:09,280 --> 01:52:11,240 Speaker 9: Just kind of throwing shoulders and not doing How do 2229 01:52:11,280 --> 01:52:12,120 Speaker 9: you get guys out there? 2230 01:52:12,200 --> 01:52:13,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean we've we've looked at every solution we 2231 01:52:14,000 --> 01:52:16,160 Speaker 10: can in meetings. In a practice, all we can do 2232 01:52:16,280 --> 01:52:18,840 Speaker 10: is continue to work at it. And again, there's not 2233 01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:20,920 Speaker 10: a magic solution that we're all of a sudden you 2234 01:52:20,920 --> 01:52:24,320 Speaker 10: gonna we do it if we could, and so we 2235 01:52:24,439 --> 01:52:26,439 Speaker 10: just keep working through it. In practice, we keep detailing, 2236 01:52:26,600 --> 01:52:29,080 Speaker 10: keep showing every single clip and it's kind of improve 2237 01:52:29,280 --> 01:52:30,200 Speaker 10: You've made changes. 2238 01:52:29,960 --> 01:52:32,080 Speaker 14: To the starting lineup throughout the first nine weeks of 2239 01:52:32,120 --> 01:52:34,160 Speaker 14: the season. Is that something you would assess over there? 2240 01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:36,280 Speaker 10: Well, I think we're always looking at the best way 2241 01:52:36,360 --> 01:52:39,360 Speaker 10: to put the best eleven guys out there, and so 2242 01:52:40,120 --> 01:52:43,360 Speaker 10: that doesn't change uh now or five weeks ago or 2243 01:52:43,400 --> 01:52:45,719 Speaker 10: five weeks from now. So we will always continue to session. 2244 01:52:45,720 --> 01:52:47,680 Speaker 10: We're not afraid to make changes we've got to make 2245 01:52:48,960 --> 01:52:50,320 Speaker 10: and if we see something that we think will make 2246 01:52:50,400 --> 01:52:51,880 Speaker 10: us better and then then we won't hesitate to do 2247 01:52:51,960 --> 01:52:52,479 Speaker 10: that much. 2248 01:52:52,760 --> 01:52:57,320 Speaker 11: Can you get involved defensively in general and then specifically 2249 01:52:57,360 --> 01:52:58,240 Speaker 11: with a bye week. 2250 01:52:58,080 --> 01:52:59,800 Speaker 3: Here, find ways to die to that side of the 2251 01:52:59,800 --> 01:53:01,479 Speaker 3: ball or do you kind of still leave that to 2252 01:53:01,640 --> 01:53:04,000 Speaker 3: out Yeah, more so to them. 2253 01:53:04,360 --> 01:53:06,759 Speaker 10: I'll be involved as the head coach, are accountable for everything. 2254 01:53:07,320 --> 01:53:09,200 Speaker 10: I'm also not going to pretend that my expertise is 2255 01:53:09,240 --> 01:53:10,680 Speaker 10: on the defense side of the ball. I can see 2256 01:53:10,720 --> 01:53:13,840 Speaker 10: it from an offense perspective, but you've got probably you know, 2257 01:53:14,320 --> 01:53:16,200 Speaker 10: one hundred years of experience on the defense side of 2258 01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:19,120 Speaker 10: the ball. They've spent every second of every meeting. Becoming 2259 01:53:19,160 --> 01:53:20,680 Speaker 10: a head coach doesn't just make an expert on the 2260 01:53:20,680 --> 01:53:21,960 Speaker 10: other side of the ball that you didn't major in 2261 01:53:21,960 --> 01:53:24,040 Speaker 10: your life. So there's ways I can help them from 2262 01:53:24,040 --> 01:53:26,840 Speaker 10: the offense perspective, see things maybe from a different lens, 2263 01:53:27,680 --> 01:53:30,000 Speaker 10: spend a lot of time with allan those coaches this morning, 2264 01:53:30,120 --> 01:53:32,320 Speaker 10: will continue to do that during the week, and just 2265 01:53:32,520 --> 01:53:34,720 Speaker 10: just help in any way I can. And again, I 2266 01:53:34,760 --> 01:53:37,559 Speaker 10: trust those guys. Those guys have been really successful everywhere 2267 01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:40,800 Speaker 10: they've been, and we're going to be successful here. And 2268 01:53:41,280 --> 01:53:43,640 Speaker 10: again we just we're going to work this week and 2269 01:53:43,960 --> 01:53:45,400 Speaker 10: try to find a way to make our team better. 2270 01:53:45,800 --> 01:53:48,840 Speaker 12: Was your tone or message any different today than a 2271 01:53:48,920 --> 01:53:49,679 Speaker 12: typical Monday. 2272 01:53:50,840 --> 01:53:51,960 Speaker 9: You'd have to ask the players out. 2273 01:53:51,960 --> 01:53:54,920 Speaker 14: I guess how long are those meetings when you meet 2274 01:53:54,920 --> 01:53:56,880 Speaker 14: with now, especially over the past couple of weeks. 2275 01:53:57,120 --> 01:53:58,600 Speaker 10: Well, I mean we meet every day, so it's not 2276 01:53:58,720 --> 01:54:01,280 Speaker 10: like there's just this meeting that we have after your game. 2277 01:54:01,320 --> 01:54:04,160 Speaker 10: It's it's constant communication. And so I think when you're 2278 01:54:04,160 --> 01:54:06,360 Speaker 10: doing that and you asked me my question about ownership 2279 01:54:06,400 --> 01:54:09,120 Speaker 10: and Duke, we're we need all the time, see them 2280 01:54:09,120 --> 01:54:11,880 Speaker 10: all the time, so there's not this this special thing 2281 01:54:11,920 --> 01:54:16,519 Speaker 10: that's all of a sudden happening. So again, well we'll 2282 01:54:16,920 --> 01:54:19,160 Speaker 10: keep doing a great job communicating and trying to grow 2283 01:54:19,280 --> 01:54:19,840 Speaker 10: one of the others. 2284 01:54:19,880 --> 01:54:21,479 Speaker 13: One of the conversation has been like that you and 2285 01:54:21,560 --> 01:54:23,479 Speaker 13: Duke could have as you guys have kind of the season. 2286 01:54:23,600 --> 01:54:25,280 Speaker 10: Yeah, listen, we're on the same page. I'm not going 2287 01:54:25,320 --> 01:54:27,040 Speaker 10: to get into every conversation I have with every person, 2288 01:54:27,120 --> 01:54:29,920 Speaker 10: but we're on the same page. I think we all 2289 01:54:30,000 --> 01:54:31,920 Speaker 10: want to do better. We all don't want to be 2290 01:54:32,000 --> 01:54:33,560 Speaker 10: at the record we're at right now, so that that 2291 01:54:33,600 --> 01:54:35,760 Speaker 10: shouldn't be shocking for anybody to hear that. We have 2292 01:54:35,880 --> 01:54:37,840 Speaker 10: high expectations for this season. We did at the start 2293 01:54:37,840 --> 01:54:39,880 Speaker 10: of the season, we still do now, and so we 2294 01:54:40,000 --> 01:54:42,280 Speaker 10: just got to find a way to again make progress 2295 01:54:42,320 --> 01:54:44,000 Speaker 10: and find this one against Pittsford when we come back 2296 01:54:44,000 --> 01:54:44,320 Speaker 10: from the buy. 2297 01:54:44,480 --> 01:54:47,560 Speaker 13: Talk about him coming when Black was potentially available. If 2298 01:54:47,560 --> 01:54:49,600 Speaker 13: you kind of gage your opinion and you kind of 2299 01:54:49,640 --> 01:54:51,880 Speaker 13: went with give you know, in your thoughts, How is 2300 01:54:51,920 --> 01:54:53,960 Speaker 13: that kind of back and forth kind of evolved in 2301 01:54:54,040 --> 01:54:56,640 Speaker 13: the rest over the years, especially close to the deadline 2302 01:54:56,680 --> 01:54:58,640 Speaker 13: or when they're when you're looking they're looking at evaluating 2303 01:54:58,680 --> 01:55:00,360 Speaker 13: talent to maybe coming building. 2304 01:55:00,440 --> 01:55:02,040 Speaker 11: How is that process like between you and you? 2305 01:55:02,720 --> 01:55:04,400 Speaker 9: How mean the same as it is in the off season? 2306 01:55:04,480 --> 01:55:06,000 Speaker 10: You know, anybody that we need to be aware of, 2307 01:55:06,160 --> 01:55:07,800 Speaker 10: if they want our opinion on that, they give it 2308 01:55:07,880 --> 01:55:09,440 Speaker 10: to us, and we give the opinion and then and 2309 01:55:09,520 --> 01:55:12,520 Speaker 10: then the decision gets made. So it's not I know 2310 01:55:12,600 --> 01:55:14,600 Speaker 10: there's a lot of attention at the trade deadline always, 2311 01:55:14,800 --> 01:55:17,200 Speaker 10: but our communication is not any different than it is 2312 01:55:17,280 --> 01:55:18,840 Speaker 10: from any other week. And so again, if there's something 2313 01:55:18,880 --> 01:55:21,040 Speaker 10: that gets brought to our attention, we'll give our two cents. 2314 01:55:21,080 --> 01:55:23,960 Speaker 10: We'll watch a player give our two cents, but trust 2315 01:55:24,000 --> 01:55:26,040 Speaker 10: our scouting department to make make decisions they make. 2316 01:55:27,160 --> 01:55:29,240 Speaker 11: Bet Trey Hendrickson's on the roster aft of the deadline. 2317 01:55:29,320 --> 01:55:30,800 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think we can win with the players that 2318 01:55:30,840 --> 01:55:32,680 Speaker 10: we have, and so just continue to work forward with 2319 01:55:32,720 --> 01:55:33,040 Speaker 10: all of them. 2320 01:55:33,120 --> 01:55:35,640 Speaker 11: Is there any new information on Burrow and where he 2321 01:55:35,760 --> 01:55:38,280 Speaker 11: stands on yesterday you mentioned he's been obvious. 2322 01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:40,840 Speaker 10: I don't have new information on it. I know that 2323 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:43,480 Speaker 10: he's getting after it. I know that he's he's doing 2324 01:55:43,520 --> 01:55:45,760 Speaker 10: everything he can to get himself ready. And so again 2325 01:55:45,760 --> 01:55:47,760 Speaker 10: I'm not going to make any declaration on what that 2326 01:55:47,840 --> 01:55:51,880 Speaker 10: timeline is going to be other than the only way 2327 01:55:51,880 --> 01:55:53,400 Speaker 10: I'll speak for him is I think he's happy with 2328 01:55:53,440 --> 01:55:55,560 Speaker 10: the progress that he's making. And again, there's no timeline 2329 01:55:55,600 --> 01:55:57,800 Speaker 10: for when that's going to be. But things are going 2330 01:55:57,840 --> 01:55:58,680 Speaker 10: according to plan. 2331 01:55:58,720 --> 01:56:02,000 Speaker 11: Such thin margins. Yesterday, you know, one or two plays 2332 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:05,160 Speaker 11: go differently just to play with Orlando on the sports 2333 01:56:05,200 --> 01:56:07,520 Speaker 11: have been like after the play, what did he say 2334 01:56:07,560 --> 01:56:07,720 Speaker 11: to you? 2335 01:56:07,960 --> 01:56:10,040 Speaker 3: And what did you say back to. 2336 01:56:10,120 --> 01:56:10,680 Speaker 5: Him on that? 2337 01:56:10,880 --> 01:56:12,080 Speaker 9: I don't remember what I said to him. 2338 01:56:12,480 --> 01:56:15,000 Speaker 10: I know he's been accountable multiple times yesterday and today 2339 01:56:15,120 --> 01:56:18,640 Speaker 10: for what happened to me privately, to the team publicly, 2340 01:56:19,160 --> 01:56:20,920 Speaker 10: and so again it's something that we can't go from 2341 01:56:20,920 --> 01:56:22,760 Speaker 10: a person goal in the five to second goal in 2342 01:56:22,800 --> 01:56:25,440 Speaker 10: the twenty. That's four points off the board there. We 2343 01:56:25,920 --> 01:56:27,480 Speaker 10: we left a lot of points on the board yesterday. 2344 01:56:27,600 --> 01:56:29,640 Speaker 10: It was so again we're talking a lot about the 2345 01:56:29,680 --> 01:56:32,640 Speaker 10: defense in here, but offensively, I was really disappointed that 2346 01:56:32,960 --> 01:56:36,160 Speaker 10: we didn't score more points and that's frustrating that you know, 2347 01:56:36,200 --> 01:56:38,360 Speaker 10: when we have the opportunity to put more points on 2348 01:56:38,400 --> 01:56:41,880 Speaker 10: the board and not execute, could have found a way 2349 01:56:41,880 --> 01:56:43,320 Speaker 10: to win it that way, you know, and then and 2350 01:56:43,400 --> 01:56:44,720 Speaker 10: then fix the problems that we're having. 2351 01:56:44,840 --> 01:56:46,000 Speaker 9: But we just seeing get it done. 2352 01:56:46,120 --> 01:56:48,760 Speaker 8: You mentioned yesterday he wanted to reflect on the intentional 2353 01:56:48,840 --> 01:56:51,720 Speaker 8: ground him then the fourth down process as the field 2354 01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:53,720 Speaker 8: goal kind of was your takeaway. 2355 01:56:53,400 --> 01:56:54,880 Speaker 10: As he talked, Yeah, we're right there on the fringe 2356 01:56:55,040 --> 01:56:56,480 Speaker 10: of where he wanted to be for the field goal. 2357 01:56:57,440 --> 01:56:58,920 Speaker 10: You're kind of making a decision at that point. Are 2358 01:56:58,960 --> 01:57:00,960 Speaker 10: you comfortable going down four at that point in the 2359 01:57:01,040 --> 01:57:03,760 Speaker 10: game with the score of the way it was him 2360 01:57:03,800 --> 01:57:05,480 Speaker 10: getting stop and find a way to go score And 2361 01:57:06,320 --> 01:57:08,760 Speaker 10: I thought that in the split second that that's where 2362 01:57:08,800 --> 01:57:13,720 Speaker 10: we could go. You know, I just ended up being 2363 01:57:13,760 --> 01:57:15,920 Speaker 10: a really tough decision that either way, you know, the 2364 01:57:16,000 --> 01:57:18,840 Speaker 10: fourth and long or the field goal, the percentages are 2365 01:57:18,880 --> 01:57:21,000 Speaker 10: probably very similar on how it's going to play out, 2366 01:57:22,200 --> 01:57:24,480 Speaker 10: probably more so better off kicking the field goal than 2367 01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:28,000 Speaker 10: converting on the fourth and long. So again, it's there's 2368 01:57:28,040 --> 01:57:31,120 Speaker 10: an imperfect answer there that I think depending on game, 2369 01:57:31,200 --> 01:57:33,040 Speaker 10: whether all that things could maybe change a little bit, 2370 01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:35,920 Speaker 10: could maybe make a different decision in a different game 2371 01:57:35,960 --> 01:57:38,400 Speaker 10: and come back to the decision I made. So again, 2372 01:57:38,440 --> 01:57:41,920 Speaker 10: it's just there wasn't a great solution there on which 2373 01:57:41,960 --> 01:57:42,520 Speaker 10: way to go with that. 2374 01:57:42,760 --> 01:57:45,320 Speaker 15: From the outside, sack, a lot of people wonder why 2375 01:57:45,800 --> 01:57:48,720 Speaker 15: losing five of six the way the last two games 2376 01:57:48,760 --> 01:57:50,720 Speaker 15: have ended, Why don't you make changes? 2377 01:57:51,360 --> 01:57:53,400 Speaker 9: Is the status quo acceptable? 2378 01:57:53,880 --> 01:57:56,840 Speaker 15: And people wonder on the outside, why do you feel 2379 01:57:57,520 --> 01:58:00,320 Speaker 15: that you do have the solutions in the building make 2380 01:58:00,360 --> 01:58:00,920 Speaker 15: any change? 2381 01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:03,840 Speaker 9: Why is that because I've been through this situation before. 2382 01:58:04,160 --> 01:58:06,680 Speaker 10: We've been through this situation many years and come out 2383 01:58:06,760 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 10: the other side playing for championships, went in divisions by 2384 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:14,000 Speaker 10: sticking with what we believe in and not doing what 2385 01:58:14,320 --> 01:58:17,040 Speaker 10: everybody wants you to do. By sticking with it, I'm 2386 01:58:17,080 --> 01:58:18,760 Speaker 10: thankful that in twenty twenty they didn't kick me out 2387 01:58:18,760 --> 01:58:19,880 Speaker 10: of here, so we really to go to the super 2388 01:58:19,920 --> 01:58:22,840 Speaker 10: Bowl the next year. And so again, I believe in 2389 01:58:22,840 --> 01:58:24,720 Speaker 10: the people that we've hired. I sit in there, I 2390 01:58:24,840 --> 01:58:27,000 Speaker 10: watch these guys coach. I know what they're made of. 2391 01:58:28,560 --> 01:58:30,600 Speaker 10: I know where we can continue to grow. And so 2392 01:58:30,680 --> 01:58:33,120 Speaker 10: when you believe in people, you don't just make a 2393 01:58:33,560 --> 01:58:36,480 Speaker 10: gut reaction from what people want to see that aren't 2394 01:58:36,560 --> 01:58:37,360 Speaker 10: necessarily a part of it. 2395 01:58:37,400 --> 01:58:38,400 Speaker 9: I understand the frustration. 2396 01:58:38,480 --> 01:58:38,800 Speaker 3: I get it. 2397 01:58:38,840 --> 01:58:40,520 Speaker 10: I'd be frustrated too if I was outside the building. 2398 01:58:41,440 --> 01:58:42,960 Speaker 10: We're going to get it fixed, We're going to continue 2399 01:58:43,000 --> 01:58:44,640 Speaker 10: to work it. I trust every coach we got in 2400 01:58:44,680 --> 01:58:46,360 Speaker 10: this building to get it done, or else they wouldn't 2401 01:58:46,360 --> 01:58:48,240 Speaker 10: be here, we wouldn't hire them in the first place. 2402 01:58:49,720 --> 01:58:51,840 Speaker 10: And so again I got firm belief that we can 2403 01:58:51,880 --> 01:58:53,800 Speaker 10: get this done, and we can do with the players 2404 01:58:53,840 --> 01:58:56,120 Speaker 10: we have and find a way to get some wins. 2405 01:58:56,160 --> 01:58:57,840 Speaker 10: And again we just there's some things we got to 2406 01:58:57,840 --> 01:59:00,440 Speaker 10: clean up, we got to do better. There's a side 2407 01:59:00,440 --> 01:59:02,200 Speaker 10: of that too, where we got to find ways to 2408 01:59:02,280 --> 01:59:03,840 Speaker 10: push the right buttons for these guys to get them 2409 01:59:03,840 --> 01:59:05,200 Speaker 10: exactly to do it how we want to do it. 2410 01:59:05,720 --> 01:59:06,880 Speaker 9: But I trust that we can get that done. 2411 01:59:07,880 --> 01:59:10,640 Speaker 11: Thought of putting Browning out for the hail Mary at 2412 01:59:10,680 --> 01:59:13,480 Speaker 11: the end, knowing he's the shoulder, how far it was, 2413 01:59:13,600 --> 01:59:14,080 Speaker 11: I don't know. 2414 01:59:14,120 --> 01:59:15,440 Speaker 3: If that's something you think about. 2415 01:59:15,320 --> 01:59:20,440 Speaker 9: Yeah, do that maybe there there are times in my 2416 01:59:20,600 --> 01:59:22,160 Speaker 9: life where that has happened. If you if you've got 2417 01:59:22,200 --> 01:59:22,680 Speaker 9: a guy. 2418 01:59:24,080 --> 01:59:27,200 Speaker 10: Who's who's that's his redeeming to trade is he's got 2419 01:59:27,240 --> 01:59:29,320 Speaker 10: a big, powerful arm can kind of come cold off 2420 01:59:29,400 --> 01:59:30,000 Speaker 10: the sideline. 2421 01:59:31,440 --> 01:59:31,640 Speaker 9: Joe. 2422 01:59:31,840 --> 01:59:34,080 Speaker 10: Joe is our best option there, and it's not fair 2423 01:59:34,120 --> 01:59:35,440 Speaker 10: to Jake to put them out there cold like that 2424 01:59:35,600 --> 01:59:37,040 Speaker 10: and try to launch one out. 2425 01:59:36,960 --> 01:59:38,800 Speaker 3: There the defensive line. 2426 01:59:39,040 --> 01:59:41,600 Speaker 14: How you know, when you talk about needing changes and 2427 01:59:41,760 --> 01:59:44,320 Speaker 14: what you try to make guys play better, when guys 2428 01:59:44,440 --> 01:59:48,200 Speaker 14: just are not witting up front, how does it get better? 2429 01:59:48,320 --> 01:59:50,360 Speaker 11: How does it get better when guys are getting moved 2430 01:59:50,400 --> 01:59:51,640 Speaker 11: and just not winning enough. 2431 01:59:52,080 --> 01:59:54,360 Speaker 10: I mean, they're still coaching that's involved in that, you know, 2432 01:59:54,480 --> 01:59:57,440 Speaker 10: So you see Thos not winning. There's still technique things 2433 01:59:57,480 --> 01:59:59,280 Speaker 10: that we can prove on. There's rush lanes we can 2434 01:59:59,320 --> 02:00:02,360 Speaker 10: do a better job of sometimes to allow other people 2435 02:00:02,440 --> 02:00:02,840 Speaker 10: to win too. 2436 02:00:03,040 --> 02:00:03,720 Speaker 9: It's you're not. 2437 02:00:03,720 --> 02:00:05,440 Speaker 10: Always gonna win every single one on If you did, 2438 02:00:05,480 --> 02:00:07,840 Speaker 10: you'd be an all pro player and it would be great. 2439 02:00:07,880 --> 02:00:08,680 Speaker 9: We have plenty of them. 2440 02:00:08,880 --> 02:00:12,560 Speaker 10: But it's also just about sometimes I'm from Russians. Four 2441 02:00:12,600 --> 02:00:14,400 Speaker 10: guys doing exactly the way they're supposed to do it, 2442 02:00:14,520 --> 02:00:17,280 Speaker 10: not three, not three and a half, and all of 2443 02:00:17,280 --> 02:00:20,640 Speaker 10: a sudden, the one guy gets out of his lane, 2444 02:00:20,680 --> 02:00:22,520 Speaker 10: and now Caleb Williams is out the door. You know, 2445 02:00:22,600 --> 02:00:23,840 Speaker 10: there was a little bit of that yesterday, and so 2446 02:00:23,880 --> 02:00:26,960 Speaker 10: again that's four guys on all snaps when we're only 2447 02:00:27,080 --> 02:00:29,440 Speaker 10: rushing four doing exactly the way they're supposed to do it, 2448 02:00:29,680 --> 02:00:31,480 Speaker 10: and allowing the coverage on the back end to match 2449 02:00:31,520 --> 02:00:32,960 Speaker 10: it and keep them trapped in the pocket and. 2450 02:00:32,960 --> 02:00:33,800 Speaker 9: I'll let him get out. 2451 02:00:33,840 --> 02:00:37,040 Speaker 10: And so again, those are easy things to clean up, 2452 02:00:37,200 --> 02:00:39,680 Speaker 10: very easy that guys can be accountable for that We've 2453 02:00:39,720 --> 02:00:43,040 Speaker 10: pointed out. It's not the same guy every time, you know, 2454 02:00:43,080 --> 02:00:44,880 Speaker 10: it can be one guy doing it in a one 2455 02:00:44,880 --> 02:00:47,160 Speaker 10: snap and another guy doing another snap. And part of 2456 02:00:47,200 --> 02:00:48,720 Speaker 10: a great defense is everybody just doing it the way 2457 02:00:48,720 --> 02:00:50,160 Speaker 10: it's supposed to be down an every single snap and 2458 02:00:50,200 --> 02:00:50,880 Speaker 10: we're going to get there. 2459 02:00:51,160 --> 02:00:55,320 Speaker 12: Do you feel there is currently enough talent on the 2460 02:00:55,400 --> 02:00:57,520 Speaker 12: defensive side of the ball to compete at a championship 2461 02:00:57,600 --> 02:00:59,640 Speaker 12: level in the list you. 2462 02:00:59,680 --> 02:01:02,160 Speaker 16: Mentioned yesterday, Zach, how much you have to fight every 2463 02:01:02,280 --> 02:01:04,920 Speaker 16: day to maintain your culture, not that just become an 2464 02:01:04,920 --> 02:01:08,960 Speaker 16: offense defense thing. Chase Brown unloaded some frustration yesterday publicly. 2465 02:01:09,160 --> 02:01:11,400 Speaker 16: Do you want players to have the freedom to vent 2466 02:01:12,080 --> 02:01:13,640 Speaker 16: or do you have to talk to not. 2467 02:01:13,680 --> 02:01:15,560 Speaker 10: If you're not doing everything you can on your own, 2468 02:01:15,680 --> 02:01:17,480 Speaker 10: you know, and I've pointed that out with Chase, you know, 2469 02:01:17,600 --> 02:01:20,280 Speaker 10: it's there's two big plays that that we could have 2470 02:01:20,320 --> 02:01:21,480 Speaker 10: done better that would have led to points. 2471 02:01:21,640 --> 02:01:24,560 Speaker 9: And so I think I liked Jamar a little bit better. 2472 02:01:24,640 --> 02:01:25,480 Speaker 9: I can tell Jamar is. 2473 02:01:25,440 --> 02:01:27,760 Speaker 10: Frustrated, but he didn't want guys coming at him if 2474 02:01:27,760 --> 02:01:29,640 Speaker 10: he's had a poor performance or something that he was 2475 02:01:29,680 --> 02:01:33,120 Speaker 10: disappointed in. So I trust that that's a one time 2476 02:01:33,200 --> 02:01:35,720 Speaker 10: thing and we'll learn from that. That's not how we 2477 02:01:35,800 --> 02:01:38,680 Speaker 10: want to react. And one of our best players, one 2478 02:01:38,680 --> 02:01:40,839 Speaker 10: of our highest character players, I think, in the moment's frustration, 2479 02:01:41,120 --> 02:01:42,960 Speaker 10: said that and I don't. 2480 02:01:42,800 --> 02:01:43,600 Speaker 9: Expect that time again. 2481 02:01:44,000 --> 02:01:46,000 Speaker 11: Chase had to drop what was not there. 2482 02:01:47,680 --> 02:01:51,840 Speaker 17: Miscommunication going back to the young guys, and Andre's not 2483 02:01:51,920 --> 02:01:55,040 Speaker 17: a rookie Yoshivas, but he was going through some struggles 2484 02:01:55,360 --> 02:01:56,760 Speaker 17: seemed to kind of come out of it on the 2485 02:01:56,840 --> 02:01:58,000 Speaker 17: other side yesterday. 2486 02:01:58,080 --> 02:01:59,480 Speaker 3: Is that is that kind of validate? 2487 02:01:59,560 --> 02:02:02,480 Speaker 9: That's that with it at I mean, that's just part 2488 02:02:02,520 --> 02:02:03,560 Speaker 9: of what we deal with, you know. 2489 02:02:03,680 --> 02:02:07,040 Speaker 10: It's it's not just overreacting to a couple of bad 2490 02:02:07,120 --> 02:02:09,360 Speaker 10: moments that that are frustrating. We've seen the body of 2491 02:02:09,440 --> 02:02:11,080 Speaker 10: work that he's put in to get to the position 2492 02:02:11,160 --> 02:02:13,680 Speaker 10: he's in, and sometimes guys don't get enough credit for 2493 02:02:13,720 --> 02:02:15,960 Speaker 10: the plays that they've made leading up to that point, 2494 02:02:16,040 --> 02:02:18,120 Speaker 10: and it's easy to point out the errors that they've 2495 02:02:18,160 --> 02:02:22,360 Speaker 10: made and and you know the disappointing place. And so 2496 02:02:22,520 --> 02:02:25,960 Speaker 10: again for us as coaches, it's just evaluating the full 2497 02:02:26,000 --> 02:02:28,280 Speaker 10: body of work. And they've gained that trust. He's great, 2498 02:02:28,320 --> 02:02:30,840 Speaker 10: he's put that credit in the bank, and I feel 2499 02:02:30,840 --> 02:02:32,600 Speaker 10: really good about where he's at, knowing that he's going 2500 02:02:32,640 --> 02:02:34,800 Speaker 10: to pull through some tough spots. And so again it's 2501 02:02:35,720 --> 02:02:37,680 Speaker 10: none of our coaches or players are perfect. We're all 2502 02:02:37,720 --> 02:02:39,200 Speaker 10: going to have moments where we could have done better. 2503 02:02:39,240 --> 02:02:44,560 Speaker 10: I've got plenty of players. So it wasn't surprising at 2504 02:02:44,560 --> 02:02:46,680 Speaker 10: all to see Yoshi respond the way he did, because 2505 02:02:46,720 --> 02:02:49,040 Speaker 10: that's just he doesn't He doesn't overreact. 2506 02:02:49,320 --> 02:02:51,240 Speaker 9: I don't believe to the good and the bad. He 2507 02:02:51,400 --> 02:02:52,040 Speaker 9: just keeps working. 2508 02:02:52,360 --> 02:02:56,200 Speaker 10: And when you got enough guys like him and like 2509 02:02:56,320 --> 02:02:58,080 Speaker 10: Chase Brown, like I know I just talked about you. 2510 02:02:58,280 --> 02:03:00,440 Speaker 10: I love Chase to death, and that's that's part of 2511 02:03:00,480 --> 02:03:02,360 Speaker 10: my conversation with him is this is a little bit 2512 02:03:02,400 --> 02:03:06,120 Speaker 10: outside of you. And so again, just believing in those 2513 02:03:06,160 --> 02:03:08,160 Speaker 10: guys and continue to stick with them, and we're going 2514 02:03:08,200 --> 02:03:09,800 Speaker 10: to see great things from them like you saw from 2515 02:03:09,800 --> 02:03:10,600 Speaker 10: those guys yesterday. 2516 02:03:10,960 --> 02:03:14,560 Speaker 2: This has been the Zach Taylor Preast Conference on ESPN 2517 02:03:14,760 --> 02:03:19,160 Speaker 2: fifteen thirty, the official home of bus Cincinnati Bengals. 2518 02:03:21,640 --> 02:03:24,120 Speaker 3: Right there you go, Zach Taylor chatting.
