Speaker 2: Of it's Monday, it must be Bengals Line, and that

9
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: means three hours of conversation breaking it all down. You'll

10
00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:33,280
Speaker 2: hear from coaches and players. We'll sort through thirty nine

11
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 2: thirty four, a loss in Buffalo yesterday. We'll look ahead

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,680
Speaker 2: of the Ravens this weekend. Lance Bacallister, Dave Lapham, thanks

13
00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 2: for joining us. Settle in. We've got you over the

14
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 2: course of those next three hours. And David, it couldn't

15
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 2: have started any better yesterday with the opening drive and

16
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: the way things were clicking. I felt good at fourteen

17
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:53,000
Speaker 2: to three, I felt good at twenty one to eleven.

18
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 2: I felt really good at twenty eight to eighteen. I

19
00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:58,279
Speaker 2: allowed myself to run scenarios through my head, and I'm

20
00:00:58,280 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 2: thinking about what's going on and the rest of the vision,

21
00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: and then seemingly, in the blink of an eye, it

22
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,320
Speaker 2: goes from a ten point lead to an eleven point

23
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,600
Speaker 2: deficit and everything changed.

24
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 3: It did, I mean, and it did in like four

25
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:13,640
Speaker 3: and a half five minutes. I mean, it was it

26
00:01:13,680 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 3: was amazing. Turnovers, you know, I mean, that's the that's

27
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 3: the plague, that's that's what every team wants to avoid

28
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:25,920
Speaker 3: if they possibly can. They want to generate turnovers, cause

29
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:28,080
Speaker 3: turnovers from the opposition, but they certainly don't want to

30
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 3: give the football away like the Bengals did. And for

31
00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 3: Joe Burrow to have interceptions on back to back throws,

32
00:01:35,480 --> 00:01:37,760
Speaker 3: I haven't really checked with him yet to see if

33
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,200
Speaker 3: that's ever happened to him at any level of football,

34
00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: whether it be Pop Warner High school, college or the

35
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:47,120
Speaker 3: National Football League. But that that is a rarity for sure.

36
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 3: And the bottom line is you just have to have

37
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:54,440
Speaker 3: to finish drives. I mean, they Bengals had to lead

38
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 3: for three quarters three quarters of the football game, didn't

39
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 3: They didn't spit the bit till till the fourth quarter

40
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 3: of the of the game. But you have to you

41
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 3: have to give Buffalo credit. They just they wouldn't go away.

42
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,360
Speaker 3: I mean when they got down by three scores, they're like,

43
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 3: you know, this game's not over. We're gonna keep Brian,

44
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:15,040
Speaker 3: We're gonna keep doing what we do. And two quarterbacks

45
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 3: were off the charts, I mean, outstanding what they what

46
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 3: they are able to accomplish in the in the game yesterday.

47
00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: But the big difference four touchdown passes Joe Burrow the

48
00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:32,200
Speaker 3: two interceptions. Uh you look at Josh Allen, three touchdown passes,

49
00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 3: no interceptions. That was the that was the big difference

50
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:35,959
Speaker 3: in the game, and that gave him a quarterback rating

51
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 3: a one thirty nine point seven. Uh perfect is what

52
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:41,959
Speaker 3: one fifty four point seven or something like that or

53
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:44,800
Speaker 3: one fifty seven point four whatever it is. Joe Burrow

54
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,200
Speaker 3: one on six point seven pretty damn strong as well.

55
00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:50,239
Speaker 3: But those two interceptions were the difference in the game.

56
00:02:50,480 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: Boy, in a day, against the backdrop of a snow

57
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,480
Speaker 2: globe like environment, with the snow coming down on a

58
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,239
Speaker 2: Rockers crowd, you'd saying it was one of the loudest

59
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:02,639
Speaker 2: crowds he's ever heard. You got two heavyweight quarterbacks, you've

60
00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 2: got a Bengals lead, and I'm thinking of Steelers are

61
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: playing the Ravens. Somebody's gonna lose in that matchup. If

62
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,400
Speaker 2: you get to five and eight. Now you're you're really

63
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 2: cooking about possibilities, and just we've seen so many times

64
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,560
Speaker 2: that combination of a missed opportunities and the merging of

65
00:03:19,600 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 2: air so slim. It just everything has to go perfect,

66
00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 2: and as you've alluded to it, just it wasn't perfect yesterday.

67
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:28,640
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean when you're when you're playing against a

68
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 3: playoff caliber team like the Buffalo Bills, like you mentioned

69
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:34,800
Speaker 3: the margin ferres nil, I mean, you have to play

70
00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:37,760
Speaker 3: as perfect the football game as you're capable of playing.

71
00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,600
Speaker 2: And Davids you mentioned the word playoff. I was struck

72
00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 2: in and listening to postgame interviews the number of different

73
00:03:43,800 --> 00:03:48,120
Speaker 2: players who alluded to the feel yesterday, and that's maybe

74
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,040
Speaker 2: reinforces just how missed the opportunity was, because I think

75
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: everybody realized that was, in essence, a playoff game for

76
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 2: the Bengals. If you were going to make the playoffs,

77
00:03:56,280 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 2: you had to win yesterday.

78
00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was a playoff atmosphere. Like you mention

79
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 3: in the raucous crowd, I mean they were they were

80
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: in full throat and they were off the charts.

81
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 4: Man.

82
00:04:04,280 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 3: Their support for the Buffalo Bills is second to none.

83
00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: I mean, their psycho that fan base.

84
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 2: It's a good work they were doing yesterday.

85
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:18,240
Speaker 3: Exactly exactly. Yeah, he was. He was kind of scratching

86
00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,240
Speaker 3: his head over that one a little bit. But you know,

87
00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:21,640
Speaker 3: those are the kind of games you have to win

88
00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 3: to make the playoffs, and the Bengals came up just short.

89
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:27,119
Speaker 2: Let's uh, let's pick up a reaction immediately after the game.

90
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,440
Speaker 2: Here is Dave with the coach, Zach Taylor.

91
00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:33,880
Speaker 3: Tough football game against the uh, the Buffalo Bills. Here

92
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:38,840
Speaker 3: in Buffalo, Coach, it was well played, high scoring football game.

93
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: Your offense took advantage just about every position they had

94
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 3: other than a couple and uncharacteristically, Joe Borrow gets intercepted

95
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,320
Speaker 3: on back to back possessions that obviously were a big

96
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 3: factor in the outcome. What did you think about your

97
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 3: offense overall?

98
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 5: Yeah, we did a great job moving the ball and

99
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 5: found some success in the run game and got what

100
00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,159
Speaker 5: we needed guys we need in the run game, found

101
00:05:01,200 --> 00:05:03,960
Speaker 5: all success in the pass game. They made two great

102
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:06,200
Speaker 5: plays on those turnovers in the fourth quarter and gave

103
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 5: them some momentum.

104
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:10,960
Speaker 3: The run game. I thought that U, samaj p Ron

105
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,000
Speaker 3: and Chase Brown gave you a nice one two punch.

106
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 3: Thought that, Uh Samaji in particular, really I thought showed

107
00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:21,720
Speaker 3: some some power. He's got good foot speed to set

108
00:05:21,760 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 3: the speed, but man, he was he was thumping people

109
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,039
Speaker 3: pretty well. He's an all around guy. I mean he

110
00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 3: can run the football with power and speed, catch football

111
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:32,320
Speaker 3: out of the backfield, tuck it away and keep the

112
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 3: football safe and gain yards after catch. And also he's

113
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,080
Speaker 3: a hell of a blocker. I mean he'll stick his

114
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:39,640
Speaker 3: nose right in there and blitz to pick up on.

115
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,800
Speaker 5: He Yeah, he's a great player. That's that's obviously where

116
00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,080
Speaker 5: we thought to get him back. And he and Chase

117
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 5: in combination with each other, I think are a great

118
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:47,839
Speaker 5: danam of backs. They came from each other really well.

119
00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 5: They understand what we're trying to get out of out

120
00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,040
Speaker 5: of each play that they're in there, and they both

121
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:54,000
Speaker 5: are are huge value for us.

122
00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,719
Speaker 3: You completed a high percentage your passes for significant yards

123
00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,640
Speaker 3: and four touchdown passes to hell, all of a hell

124
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 3: of a deal. You don't you don't get four touchdown

125
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 3: passes every week. In the National Football League. What about

126
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,799
Speaker 3: your passing attack utilized the tight ends. I thought Gasiki

127
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 3: in particularly had a very strong game for you today,

128
00:06:12,360 --> 00:06:12,680
Speaker 3: didn't he.

129
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, he did, and and I thought our offensive line

130
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:16,680
Speaker 5: did a great job. Joe understood the coverages and where

131
00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 5: they're trying to do. They do a good job disguising.

132
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,200
Speaker 5: They tried to do a great job of taking away Jamar,

133
00:06:22,440 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 5: so we still want to try to get Jamar and

134
00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 5: the ball, which we did in some different ways. But

135
00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 5: it opens it up for a lot of other guys.

136
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:28,760
Speaker 5: That's why you saw t you have the game he had.

137
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,839
Speaker 5: I guess like he had the game he had. Andre

138
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 5: made some big plays for us, So we're okay doing that.

139
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:35,479
Speaker 5: That's how they want to play a game.

140
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:38,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, they were playing a lot of combination coverage on

141
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 3: on both Jamar and Tegue and changing it up a

142
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:44,720
Speaker 3: little bit. That's when Gasiki obviously stepped up and took

143
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:47,919
Speaker 3: advantage of his opportunities and and made plays. Is T.

144
00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:51,560
Speaker 3: Higgins he got stung a little bit there. He was

145
00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 3: out for their snappers. So he had a pretty good

146
00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:55,520
Speaker 3: football game today. See Okay, Yeah he did.

147
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:58,000
Speaker 5: He responded well, and I think they just evaluated him

148
00:06:58,000 --> 00:06:58,640
Speaker 5: and he was good to go.

149
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,600
Speaker 3: So let's talk about your your defensive football team. Obviously,

150
00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,040
Speaker 3: a lot of points were scored, but honestly, I mean,

151
00:07:05,080 --> 00:07:06,760
Speaker 3: I'm not saying they played a great game, but I

152
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 3: thought that there were stretches where they were making plays.

153
00:07:09,200 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 3: I mean, Josh Allen is a tough guy to deal with.

154
00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 3: He can he can throw the football and he's got

155
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,800
Speaker 3: good accuracy. Maybe not as good this year as in

156
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,800
Speaker 3: past years, but man, he's a big, strong guy that

157
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 3: can run. Big boy. He's uh, he's he's he's a load.

158
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,120
Speaker 3: What about Josh Allen? How do you think the defense

159
00:07:28,160 --> 00:07:29,200
Speaker 3: did today defending him.

160
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:31,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, he's a tough player obviously, and they got a

161
00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 5: great running back, great offensive line in front of him.

162
00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 5: I think, you know, it comes down to those those

163
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,560
Speaker 5: fourth down plays. There was there was four of them

164
00:07:37,880 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 5: to my eye, and they converted on three of them.

165
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 5: We got a huge stop on one at the end

166
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 5: of the second half, and ultimately it's it's like you said,

167
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:47,080
Speaker 5: the guys, there was opportunities there where they did a

168
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,080
Speaker 5: great job and first three downs and those fourth downs,

169
00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 5: Allen did a great job extent of the play and

170
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 5: find a way to make one.

171
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 3: Speaking of a fourth down, you didn't really have to

172
00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:58,200
Speaker 3: do too many because your third down percentage was unbelievable.

173
00:07:58,400 --> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it was like what eight over

174
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,720
Speaker 3: eighty percent in the National Football League. To convert like

175
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 3: that on third down, that's that's extraordinary. It doesn't happen

176
00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 3: every single week. What was the key to the success

177
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 3: converting on third down?

178
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:12,760
Speaker 5: I thought we had a great point, you know, agree

179
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,520
Speaker 5: and players understood it, executed it, did their jobs, did

180
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:17,600
Speaker 5: a great job protecting up front. Joe did a great

181
00:08:17,680 --> 00:08:20,400
Speaker 5: job with any checks he had to make and delivered a.

182
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:24,680
Speaker 2: Balls Zach Taylor after the game. Plenty more to dissect,

183
00:08:24,760 --> 00:08:27,800

Speaker 8: Yeah, good plays by Now did.

202
00:09:25,880 --> 00:09:27,560
Speaker 9: You feel like you guys were kind of playing the

203
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 9: exact type of game you wanted to play before.

204
00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 10: Those two, like exactly how you would have scripted.

205
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,000
Speaker 8: It out to build in. Yeah, we were playing pretty good.

206
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,200
Speaker 8: We were playing pretty good. You know, we gotta we

207
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 8: gotta turn over in the red zone.

208
00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:41,800
Speaker 4: Uh.

209
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 8: We spout it on a couple drives, but for the

210
00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 8: most part, we were moving it pretty good. Uh, we

211
00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 8: were in a good spot, a top child.

212
00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:53,119
Speaker 11: Then was that first half especially and let them down perspective?

213
00:09:53,160 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 12: And how did you walk out to the field in

214
00:09:57,160 --> 00:09:57,920
Speaker 12: the second.

215
00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,960
Speaker 7: Half of when you was going through your mind?

216
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 8: Yeah, we we were executing, We were executing, lamas protecting,

217
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,440
Speaker 8: we were making plays. Uh, you know, we d we

218
00:10:05,440 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 8: were doing a good.

219
00:10:05,960 --> 00:10:09,920
Speaker 7: Job, right, You put on differently on that? Then group.

220
00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 8: Could have thrown it higher, I guess, but the linebacker

221
00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,800
Speaker 8: was running out there underneath of it, so if I

222
00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:26,080
Speaker 8: threw it higher, he might've gotten involved too. Not really,

223
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:27,240
Speaker 8: that was our reaction to that.

224
00:10:27,600 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 7: Is this just one of those games?

225
00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 3: Did you like the playoff game with the team.

226
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,480
Speaker 7: That just was able to make a couple of those plays?

227
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 7: We was gonna wait, did doel like that? And Don

228
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:34,600
Speaker 7: went outstretch.

229
00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,360
Speaker 8: Yeah, you know it was playoff, a playoff atmosphere. We

230
00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:41,640
Speaker 8: know what kind of game it was for us? Did

231
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 8: them too? And then? Uh yeah, it was just it

232
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,640
Speaker 8: was intense out there. Guys are fighting their butts off.

233
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:52,439
Speaker 13: Those show me anything different uh than on than what

234
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 13: you saw a film this week.

235
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 8: They always do do things a little different against us,

236
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 8: but that's what we expected. They were mixing a lot

237
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 8: of things up. They started pressure more in the second half.

238
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 8: I thought we handled it well. Wow, oh yeah, we

239
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:10,719
Speaker 8: we kind of we knew what to expect. We knew

240
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 8: how they liked to play us from from past meetings.

241
00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,960
Speaker 8: And uh we had the answers when.

242
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:19,719
Speaker 14: You blobby hard for the team to sign the tachagainst

243

Speaker 14: the admission to dur this off season, y'all just say,

244
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,240
Speaker 14: didn't get much opportunity to see how it all looked.

245
00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 14: Is this like what you would envisioned, the type of

246
00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:30,040
Speaker 14: office that you guys could be and the type of

247
00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,599
Speaker 14: outfit that you would be to an opponent when you

248
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 14: guys are.

Speaker 8: know what we can be. We know what we can

251
00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 8: do and when we execute. Uh, and we were able

252
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,199
Speaker 8: to execute today for the most part. And uh, it's

253
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 8: gotta do more.

254
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:46,520

Speaker 7: that deal of the season. Everyone got to do that

265
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 7: for the last couple of years, and now a frustrating

266
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:14,200

295
00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:40,640
Speaker 13: A play with a game, right, some of the catchers

300
00:13:53,720 --> 00:13:58,839
Speaker 8: guys that Jamorrow Tea know that teams are gonna have

301
00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 8: different plans to take one of them away. And you

302
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 8: know they did not want Number one to beat them today,

303
00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 8: and so when that happens, then he's got to step

304
00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 8: up and make big plays, which he did and something

305
00:14:17,080 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 8: we would have liked to have back too. Mike g

306
00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:22,120
Speaker 8: made a ton of players today. We had guys making

307
00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,200
Speaker 8: plays all over the field, and you know, unfortunately we

308
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 8: just weren't able to pull it out.

309
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow after the game and Dave I mentioned the

310
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 2: opening drive and it couldn't have started any better. They

311
00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:33,600
Speaker 2: win the toss, they decided to take the ball. They

312
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:37,760
Speaker 2: go fourteen plays, sixty seven yards, click eight point fifteen

313
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,160
Speaker 2: off the clock. They run seven times, they passed seven times,

314
00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,080
Speaker 2: They convert four third downs, t had three catches coming

315
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:47,120
Speaker 2: back from the concussion, and everything was rolling right out

316
00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 2: of the shoot.

317
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,600
Speaker 3: It really was. I mean, to go on a long

318
00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 3: sustained drive like that, you know, out of the box,

319
00:14:53,480 --> 00:14:55,880
Speaker 3: the crowd is going nuts. You know, the best way

320
00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,520
Speaker 3: to silence them is do exactly what they did. And

321
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 3: you know, the crowd really really couldn't believe it. But

322
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:04,560
Speaker 3: T Higgins, man, did he have a you know, I guess,

323
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:06,960
Speaker 3: for lack of a better term of coming out party

324
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 3: after that, after that concussion. I mean, he was he

325
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 3: was phenomenal. Targeted eleven times, Joe Burrow was going to

326
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 3: him because Jamar was getting a lot of attention. Man,

327
00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:21,000
Speaker 3: he really was. And Higgins six catches ninety two yards

328
00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:24,680
Speaker 3: of twenty five yard touchdown another touchdown catch to tow

329
00:15:25,120 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 3: of Joe Burrow's four touchdown passes went to T Higgins,

330
00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 3: and that one handed catch he made for the touchdown

331
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:32,800
Speaker 3: was just, I mean, the thing of beauty. You talk

332
00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:37,400
Speaker 3: about eye hand coordination, athleticism and such a big body

333
00:15:37,560 --> 00:15:39,720
Speaker 3: guy to be able to do things like that. You know,

334
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:43,680
Speaker 3: you'd expect, you know, a small, little you know, athlete

335
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:45,520
Speaker 3: to be able to do those kind of things, but

336
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,120
Speaker 3: to have the range and the size and the strength

337
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 3: that t. Higgins has and to be able to do

338
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 3: what he does in those situations separate him. I mean,

339
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 3: he's a very unique, rare talent.

340
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 2: On the Benford picked six and by the way he

341
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:00,280
Speaker 2: I read this morning, he becomes the first Buffalo Bill

342
00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,760
Speaker 2: to score a defensive touchdown and back to back games

343
00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 2: in their franchise is history.

344
00:16:04,280 --> 00:16:04,520
Speaker 16: Wow.

345
00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:07,160
Speaker 2: What did you see as that play unfolded? And what

346
00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:08,080
Speaker 2: a play he made?

347
00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think Joe basically was shocked that

348
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 3: he jumped so high, you know, I mean, it's the guy.

349
00:16:15,840 --> 00:16:18,480
Speaker 3: The guy had uh he had coverage on on that,

350
00:16:18,720 --> 00:16:21,600
Speaker 3: but he was kind of in between should I pressure?

351
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:25,040
Speaker 3: Should I cover? You know, and and he was kind

352
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:27,080
Speaker 3: of between the rocking and rocking a hard place. And

353
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,600
Speaker 3: then Joe kind of was I guess a little bit too.

354
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 3: But and he thought he put enough loft on the ball.

355
00:16:32,080 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 3: You know, he tried to feather it in there, but uh, man,

356
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,760
Speaker 3: ben for just he showed some athletics and man, I

357
00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 3: mean he he skied for that thing, and then it

358
00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,560
Speaker 3: was it was an easy pick six. There was nobody

359
00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 3: that was going to stop him. There's nobody in his way.

360
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:47,000
Speaker 3: Nobody was going to deter him from uh running into

361
00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:50,640
Speaker 3: the end zone. But man, that was I'm sure. I'm

362
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 3: sure after right after Joe let that ball go out

363
00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 3: of his head and was like, oh no, please no,

364
00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:01,360
Speaker 3: and it good football. Guds didn't no doubt, no doubt,

365
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 3: still ahead. Mike Kasicki had quite a day. We'll talk

366
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:06,479
Speaker 3: about that here from him as we continue. It's Bengals

372
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,400

375
00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 2: after the game.

376
00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 3: Mike, what was the what was the reason for your

377
00:17:44,840 --> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 3: what was the reason for your success? Did you expect

378
00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: it during the course of the week when the game

379
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,680
Speaker 3: plan was put together? Was it just something that took

380
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 3: place today? The way they covered you the way you

381
00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:58,640
Speaker 3: knew you could beat people. What took place today?

382
00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 17: Do you think there's always opportunity in the game plan.

383
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:03,720
Speaker 17: It just depends on what comes up and how the

384
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,159
Speaker 17: defenses are playing and the flow of the game. So

385
00:18:08,640 --> 00:18:10,639
Speaker 17: you know, you always anticipate, you know, going out there

386
00:18:10,640 --> 00:18:11,280
Speaker 17: and making plays.

387
00:18:11,320 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 4: And today, you know, the.

388
00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:13,800
Speaker 8: Ball came away a couple of times and I.

389
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,560
Speaker 3: Was able to make some plays. This was your This

390
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 3: is a big game for you, man, biggest game of

391
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 3: the year. You are a talented individual in terms of

392
00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,719
Speaker 3: you got great size. Uh what six 's five? Anyway,

393
00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:29,680
Speaker 3: aren't you? And U two hundred and twenty five and

394
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:33,200
Speaker 3: thirty pounds? But can run and you're in the slot

395
00:18:33,240 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 3: today you were doing a lot of receiver work in

396
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:39,879
Speaker 3: getting matchups mismatches on safeties and corner Is that a

397
00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:40,640
Speaker 3: big part of your game?

398
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 4: Yeah.

399
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 17: I mean they just allow me to be me and

400
00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:48,000
Speaker 17: go out there and you know, maybe don't always run

401
00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,480
Speaker 17: their routes the you know, conventional way and how you

402
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 17: draw it up, but uh, you know, Joe allows me

403
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:56,119
Speaker 17: to go out there and make plays, and he trusts

404
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:57,320
Speaker 17: me to be where I'm supposed to be when I'm

405
00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:00,200
Speaker 17: spposed to be there, and uh you saw that today.

406
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:02,760
Speaker 3: Mike, I know. Uh, the goal was to win the

407
00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:05,320
Speaker 3: last five games of the season, make a run and

408
00:19:05,400 --> 00:19:08,680
Speaker 3: go nine and eight. Didn't happen today, you know. So

409
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:13,359
Speaker 3: now you're looking at at uh at what you're looking

410
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 3: at four and eight. So there are five games, four

411
00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,320
Speaker 3: games left, so you can go eight and nine. I'm

412
00:19:19,359 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 3: not saying that that's a lock for the playoffs, but

413
00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:23,840
Speaker 3: still a possibility, isn't it.

414
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:25,879
Speaker 17: Yeah, that's that's gonna be our best that's gonna be

415
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,920
Speaker 17: our only chance. So it starts with Baltimore next week

416
00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,960
Speaker 17: and that's a big one, Divisional one and at home.

417
00:19:31,160 --> 00:19:32,800
Speaker 17: So uh, you know, you go out there and get

418
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 17: that win.

419
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 3: I know that. Uh the locker room is disappointed, obviously,

420
00:19:36,800 --> 00:19:39,040
Speaker 3: but there there's not any quitting any of these guys.

421
00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 3: I mean, you guys gave it everything you had out

422
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 3: there today, every single snap. You anticipate that for the

423
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 3: rest of the season, don't you.

424
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,080
Speaker 17: Yeah, you know it starts with Zach and you know

425
00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:49,439
Speaker 17: the the way that he coaches us, and he does

426
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,480
Speaker 17: a phenomenal job, you know, just getting us all ready

427
00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,240
Speaker 17: to play, and we have great guys on this in

428
00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 17: this team, in this locker room that are gonna, you know,

00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 17: get get out there and be ready to work starting tomorrow.

430
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:03,280
Speaker 3: I know the tight ends had a huge game today.

431
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:05,680
Speaker 3: I know the Cincinnati tight end room is something that

432
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 3: you're proud of. You got a bunch of great teammates

433
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 3: in that in that tight end room. You have a

434
00:20:11,000 --> 00:20:12,600
Speaker 3: hell of a coach. To talk about your coach a

435
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:13,000
Speaker 3: little bit.

436
00:20:13,840 --> 00:20:18,000
Speaker 17: James is an unbelievable tight end coach has played seven

437
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,080
Speaker 17: years in the league, has seen a lot, knows how

438
00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,480
Speaker 17: to coach, knows how to get the best out of

439
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:26,040
Speaker 17: the guys, uses us all to our strengths and helps

440
00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 17: us in you.

441
00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 3: Know, every aspect of the game and in life.

442
00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 17: Can't say enough good things about James Casey, and you

443
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 17: know the impact that he's had on me in my career.

444
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 2: Mike is sicky on a heck of a day. Was

445
00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 2: easily his best day of the year. He had his

446
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 2: high was four catches for thirty five yards in a

447
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:45,600
Speaker 2: game going into yesterday six catches eighty six yards, and

448
00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:48,160
Speaker 2: it was a really good day for a guy who

449
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,040
Speaker 2: They've got tight ends who all do something, but Mike

450
00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,400
Speaker 2: is the best of the group and he showed yesterday

451
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:55,080
Speaker 2: the impact he can have on this offense.

452
00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:57,640
Speaker 3: Right, I agree with you, Lance, You know you got

453
00:20:58,119 --> 00:21:02,159
Speaker 3: tight end that that can block that sample, and he blocks,

454
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,480
Speaker 3: probably a little more proficiently than he is his a

455
00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 3: weapon in the passing game, although he can get it done.

456
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:11,120
Speaker 3: I mean he can run routes and catch the football

457
00:21:11,119 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 3: and do all the things the tight end needs to do. GASICKI,

458
00:21:16,000 --> 00:21:18,479
Speaker 3: you know, is a guy that can do it all

459
00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:23,040
Speaker 3: really and he blocks, well, he's not a devastating blocker.

460
00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,400
Speaker 3: That's not his trademark, that's not his mo. But boy

461
00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:30,840
Speaker 3: is he a great receiver of the football. A lot

462
00:21:30,920 --> 00:21:32,879
Speaker 3: of his plays that he made yesterday from the slot,

463
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,520
Speaker 3: you know, he ended up almost a member of the

464
00:21:35,560 --> 00:21:38,160
Speaker 3: wide receiver corps, like a big six foot five inch,

465
00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 3: you know, two hundred and twenty five pound wide receiver

466
00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,439
Speaker 3: running really good routes. And Buffalo was paying a lot

467
00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:49,399
Speaker 3: of attention to Higgins eventually, and paid a lot of

468
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 3: attention from Jump Street With Jamar and once t I

469
00:21:53,920 --> 00:21:56,600
Speaker 3: think showed them that not only is he back, but

470
00:21:56,760 --> 00:22:00,119
Speaker 3: he's performing an high level, they started paying attention to

471
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:02,720
Speaker 3: him as well. And uh, you know, he did have

472
00:22:03,440 --> 00:22:07,640
Speaker 3: five throws to him. Five targets that weren't weren't executed,

473
00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 3: weren't finished, so they they did probably you know, have

474
00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:15,720
Speaker 3: more success in coverage on t Higgins and Gasiki stepped up,

475
00:22:15,840 --> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 3: you know what, when when needed. This guy is uh

476
00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,720
Speaker 3: is somebody that Joe Burrow can count on. Joe Burrow

477
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 3: loves to throw the football to Mikeasicki. He trusts them,

478
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,800
Speaker 3: and that's that's a big thing with Joe Burrow. Trust

479
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 3: means that you're always where you're supposed to be when

480
00:22:30,800 --> 00:22:33,880
Speaker 3: you're supposed to be there, and no surprises. And that's

481
00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 3: that's Mikeasicki. He is reliable, dependable, and the hell of

482
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:38,640
Speaker 3: a talent.

483
00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:41,240
Speaker 2: And you used to I think a keyword when needed,

484
00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:43,159
Speaker 2: because when you have somebody like Tea and you have

485
00:22:43,240 --> 00:22:45,720
Speaker 2: somebody like Jamar, they're going to command attention if you

486
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,480
Speaker 2: don't have somebody else to make a defense pay and

487
00:22:48,560 --> 00:22:50,560
Speaker 2: that's Mike. And I think early in the season when

488
00:22:50,560 --> 00:22:52,440
Speaker 2: they went through that stretch without Mike he had that

489
00:22:52,520 --> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 2: I think it was the peck issue and he wasn't available.

490
00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 2: But without him, it's a different look and it allows

491
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,120
Speaker 2: teams to do things differently. In Mike when he's there.

492
00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:02,800
Speaker 2: He can make defenses.

493
00:23:02,400 --> 00:23:05,159
Speaker 3: Pay absolutely, and you know, and the tight end package

494
00:23:05,200 --> 00:23:08,480
Speaker 3: that the Bengals can use, the third tight ends Tanner Hudson, yep,

495
00:23:08,680 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: and that package that they can use. He's kind of like,

496
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:15,640
Speaker 3: you know, he's a good, good receiver. The football runs good.

497
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,919
Speaker 3: Rouse smart on the same page as Joe Borrow. Joe

498
00:23:17,960 --> 00:23:22,360
Speaker 3: Burrow trusts him implicitly as well, and he blocks decently.

499
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,480
Speaker 3: I mean, they can use these guys as full backs,

500
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,080
Speaker 3: they can use them as wing backs, they can use

501
00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 3: them as slot receivers, tight ends at the end of

502
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:30,120
Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage. They can go two and three

503
00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,159
Speaker 3: tight end packages. It gives a lot of versatility to

504
00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 3: the Bengals offense and gives Dan Pitcher and Zach Taylor,

505
00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:41,479
Speaker 3: you know, tools to work with and weapons to employ

506
00:23:41,720 --> 00:23:43,480
Speaker 3: and keep the defense on their toes.

507
00:23:43,600 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 2: Boy and the Gasiki touchdown, I want to say that

508
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:50,280
Speaker 2: capped off a twelve play drive. Buffalo had pulled within three.

509
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 2: Joe fires to strike down. He's sicky in the end zone.

510
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 2: It's now a ten point lead with eight forty four

511
00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:58,160
Speaker 2: to go, and you know, I'm writing down Gasiki play.

512
00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,159
Speaker 2: They touchdown decides the game and from there. I mean

513
00:24:01,240 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 2: that was twenty eight eighteen, and so much happened after

514
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:04,960
Speaker 2: that in the final eight minutes.

515
00:24:05,040 --> 00:24:07,200
Speaker 3: It's incredible the number of points that went up on

516
00:24:07,240 --> 00:24:08,960
Speaker 3: the board in the last eight minutes. It really is

517
00:24:09,160 --> 00:24:12,440
Speaker 3: was a track meet. And that five yard touchdown past

518
00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:14,040
Speaker 3: you right, Joe Borrow hum that bad boy.

519
00:24:14,400 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 2: He put some RPM yes on that one. Did put

520
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:17,920
Speaker 2: a jugs gun on it.

521
00:24:18,000 --> 00:24:20,879
Speaker 3: He did the Kaski you know, soutam boring plucks it.

522
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:21,800
Speaker 2: I mean, he is.

523
00:24:21,960 --> 00:24:24,960
Speaker 3: Kasiki is a talent, there's no, uh, no question about it.

524
00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 3: And he he is somebody that Joe really looks to

525
00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,120
Speaker 3: in the in the red zone, the low red zone.

526
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,879
Speaker 3: That's uh, you know, that's Kasiki's where he makes his

527
00:24:33,960 --> 00:24:34,520
Speaker 3: bread and butter.

528
00:24:34,840 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 2: Let's talk some defense when we come back. He's Dave

529
00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,679
Speaker 2: Lapham my glance. But callister, we appreciate you hanging out

530
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 2: with us tonight. Talk a little Bengals football and Bengals Line,

531
00:24:42,440 --> 00:24:45,440
Speaker 2: the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred wl W. You

532
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,359
Speaker 2: we keep rolling right along on this Monday night at

533
00:24:57,359 --> 00:25:01,200
Speaker 2: Bengals Line and the Bengals Radio networking seven WLW on

534
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,720
Speaker 2: the dock at early thirty nine thirty four, the final

535
00:25:03,840 --> 00:25:06,480
Speaker 2: numbers from Buffalo. Sorting through that, we'll look ahead of

536
00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,040
Speaker 2: the Baltimore Ravens as well. We've got fun facts with

537
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,720
Speaker 2: Dan Horde and Joe Flacco later out of our third

538
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 2: hour as well. But let's jump into the defensive side

539
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,280
Speaker 2: of things. Yesterday, Oron Burks, the veteran linebacker recovered a

540
00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:20,640
Speaker 2: fumble on a big play by DJ Turner. Here's oron

541
00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:21,720
Speaker 2: Burks with Dan.

542
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:25,080
Speaker 18: Horde, Aaron Burks, you recovered a fumble in the end zone.

543
00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:28,119
Speaker 18: At the moment, it looked like that might be the

544
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,880
Speaker 18: play that ultimately helped Cincinnati win the game. Unfortunately that's

545
00:25:31,960 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 18: not the way it played out. But go back to

546
00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:37,199
Speaker 18: that play and how youphorick it must have felt at

547
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 18: the moment to get a stop inside the five.

548
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:42,080
Speaker 12: Yeah, obviously, you know, go on stand is a big deal.

549
00:25:42,200 --> 00:25:44,479
Speaker 12: Taking points off the board for them, and just good

550
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,280
Speaker 12: things happen when you running the ball just all pop

551
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,560
Speaker 12: out and hopped on it right away, so give them

552
00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:50,440
Speaker 12: us a chance. And then you know, office turn around

553
00:25:50,480 --> 00:25:53,200
Speaker 12: and got a great drive right after that. So we

554
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:54,800
Speaker 12: just diden making enough plays to win the game. So

555
00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:55,879
Speaker 12: that's what it comes down to.

556
00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:57,120
Speaker 16: But back to work.

557
00:25:57,359 --> 00:25:57,919
Speaker 4: Back to work this.

558
00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:02,439
Speaker 18: Week, Josh Allen to Unicorn, the way that he can

559
00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,680
Speaker 18: extend plays, the forty yard touchdown run that he had.

560
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,200
Speaker 18: I mean sometimes you have to just say a great

561
00:26:08,240 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 18: player made plays.

562
00:26:10,280 --> 00:26:12,159
Speaker 12: Yeah, he's a great player, you know, see it all

563
00:26:12,200 --> 00:26:14,399
Speaker 12: over the tape and just being out there with him,

564
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,520
Speaker 12: he's able to improvise and you know, he's just a

565
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:19,440
Speaker 12: great mind. He's been lead for a while, so he's

566
00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:21,959
Speaker 12: seeing every look, you know. But again, we just got

567
00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:23,320
Speaker 12: to find a way to make more poison. They did

568
00:26:23,400 --> 00:26:25,040
Speaker 12: and then and we weren't able to do that today.

569
00:26:25,640 --> 00:26:27,600
Speaker 18: I think in the last two weeks, you guys have

570
00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:30,280
Speaker 18: showed with Joe Burroyd quarterback, you can go toe to

571
00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,960
Speaker 18: toe with anybody. Unfortunately, with the playoff math, it's you

572
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,680
Speaker 18: face long odds to get in. How frustrating is it

573
00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:39,840
Speaker 18: to know that this team's pretty good. Unfortunately we might

574
00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:41,359
Speaker 18: not have a chance to extend our season.

575
00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:43,399
Speaker 12: Yeah, we're just going to control what we can and

576
00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,520
Speaker 12: that's weekend a week out, just giving it our best

577
00:26:45,600 --> 00:26:47,600
Speaker 12: and getting out there to put something that we can

578
00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 12: be proud of. So next week we're back on to

579
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:52,239
Speaker 12: the Ravens and that's that's what we're focused on now.

580
00:26:52,760 --> 00:26:57,159
Speaker 18: Up by ten fourth quarter, were you thinking, you know,

581
00:26:57,600 --> 00:26:59,080
Speaker 18: this one's going to be in the win column.

582
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 12: I mean we think that the whole game. There's there's

583
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,040
Speaker 12: no quit in this team. And I feel like that

584
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 12: was the mindset on the sideline. Everybody believe that, you know,

585
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:07,639
Speaker 12: even at the end, we can find a way to

586
00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:09,720
Speaker 12: get that stopped and often scored to go down score,

587
00:27:09,800 --> 00:27:12,040
Speaker 12: but I just didn't didn't pan out that way. And

588
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,040
Speaker 12: again just expect to work.

589
00:27:13,400 --> 00:27:15,840
Speaker 18: What is kind of the mindset right now for the

590
00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:18,800
Speaker 18: team for where things stand after this lost.

591
00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,400
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's frustrating. You know you can give draw every

592
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:23,320
Speaker 12: week and just come up short, you know, one too

593
00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,560
Speaker 12: many times. And again I just keep saying, its back

594
00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 12: to work. It's it's only so much you can control.

595
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:31,320
Speaker 12: That's in the past now and controlling the what we

596
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:32,480
Speaker 12: can do moving forward.

597
00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:33,480
Speaker 18: Appreciate your time.

598
00:27:33,800 --> 00:27:37,359
Speaker 2: Oran burks with Dan Horde and that could have been

599
00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 2: one of those moments you circle that's the play of

600
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:41,639
Speaker 2: the game. They stop a touchdown at the lot it was.

601
00:27:41,960 --> 00:27:44,080
Speaker 2: It was just what you want from your defense. It's

602
00:27:44,080 --> 00:27:47,159
Speaker 2: a scoring opportunity for the Bills. DJ makes the instinctive

603
00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:49,840
Speaker 2: play and strips it away and oron falls on it,

604
00:27:50,119 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 2: and you're thinking, all right, this defense has stepped up

605
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:54,720
Speaker 2: and they and they've saved the football game.

606
00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 3: Absolutely. I mean that's the only turnover the Buffalo Bills had.

607
00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:01,280
Speaker 3: The Bengals had to the Bills had one of the

608
00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 3: Bills go plus one in this kind of a game,

609
00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 3: finishing plus in the turnover department. I think it is

610
00:28:07,560 --> 00:28:12,119
Speaker 3: and was a big deal. But yeah, the defense, I mean,

611
00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 3: they made plays, you know, things would jump out like,

612
00:28:16,119 --> 00:28:18,240
Speaker 3: oh my God, like you were saying, oh my gosh,

613
00:28:18,320 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 3: this is it, this is gonna clinch the game. This

614
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:25,480
Speaker 3: is the play of the game. Then yeah, then I

615
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,359
Speaker 3: got a little surprise for you. Al Golden had to

616
00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,000
Speaker 3: be tearing his hair out by the roots, you know,

617
00:28:30,280 --> 00:28:34,640
Speaker 3: because it's on more than half the plays. I thought

618
00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:38,000
Speaker 3: the defense played winning football, you know, and I thought

619
00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 3: they showed signs of improvement. I think they are starting

620
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,680
Speaker 3: to gradually, you know, improve Now. Are they there yet? No,

621
00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,400
Speaker 3: they're not there yet. They have miles to go before

622
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 3: they rest. But I think they're gonna they can be.

623
00:28:49,160 --> 00:28:50,960
Speaker 3: They can be all They're never I don't think they're

624
00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:53,240
Speaker 3: gonna be this group right now. Until they get some

625
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 3: more snaps and years under their belt. Is not gonna

626
00:28:56,520 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 3: be a top three, top five group, but they can

627
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,120
Speaker 3: be a top twelve, top fifty defense and you know,

628
00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:05,120
Speaker 3: get in the top half of the league statistically. And

629
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,720
Speaker 3: if they if they do that with the way this is,

630
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:11,480
Speaker 3: Bengals offense can score points. I mean thirty nine to

631
00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:13,920
Speaker 3: thirty five. You scored thirty five points in the NFL.

632
00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 3: You stamp it, man, it's a dub, you know, but

633
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 3: not so fast.

634
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,520
Speaker 2: In fact, along those lines are our friend Paul Dayner

635
00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 2: Junior of the Athletic had this stat going back to

636
00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:26,360
Speaker 2: last season, and boy, oh boy, since the first week

637
00:29:26,400 --> 00:29:29,080
Speaker 2: of last season, teams around the NFL that score at

638
00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:33,880
Speaker 2: least thirty three points have gone one thirty six, ten

639
00:29:34,520 --> 00:29:37,960
Speaker 2: and two. The Bengals in that span, when scoring at

640
00:29:38,040 --> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 2: least thirty three points have gone four and seven.

641
00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 3: So they're responsible for seven of the ten losses to

642
00:29:44,640 --> 00:29:45,040
Speaker 3: the league.

643
00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:48,240
Speaker 2: I think the league separated. I think that's everybody else.

644
00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:51,200
Speaker 2: But either way, I mean, think about that one thirty

645
00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 2: six and that's a winning percentage of a like ninety

646
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,360
Speaker 2: five and the Bengals are four and seven.

647
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:58,200
Speaker 3: Yeah. Oh, and Bengals have a losing record. The Bengals

648
00:29:58,240 --> 00:29:59,160
Speaker 3: are sub five hundred.

649
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:03,120
Speaker 2: I mean, and here's speaking of friends. Joel Goodberry or

650
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 2: our friend Joe Goodberry had a stat on and it's

651
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,719
Speaker 2: impossible to talk linebackers without talking to tight end. How

652
00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:12,200
Speaker 2: about this day. This season, the Bengals defense versus tight

653
00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:17,280
Speaker 2: ends has allowed ninety seven catches for twelve hundred yards

654
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,840
Speaker 2: and fifteen touchdowns to opposing tight ends. Think about that,

655
00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 2: guys just rolled back at his hand. Crazy thirteen games

656
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,680
Speaker 2: in ninety seven catches for twelve hundred yards and fifteen touchdowns.

657
00:30:28,840 --> 00:30:32,000
Speaker 2: They are averaging. Teams are averaging at the tight end

658
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 2: position against the Bengals ten and a half targets per game,

659
00:30:35,400 --> 00:30:38,040
Speaker 2: seven and a half catches per game, and ninety seven

660
00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:39,000
Speaker 2: yards per game.

661
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:43,520
Speaker 3: That's amazing. I mean, they're converting over at seventy percent

662
00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,320
Speaker 3: of the time in almost one hundred yards to the

663
00:30:46,400 --> 00:30:49,120
Speaker 3: tight ends every single game. And we were talking about

664
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:50,840
Speaker 3: it at the end of night during the game. It's like, man,

665
00:30:51,160 --> 00:30:53,360
Speaker 3: I mean, the Bengals have struggled to stop the tight

666
00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: end forever. It seems like tight ends have hurt the

667
00:30:57,080 --> 00:31:03,400
Speaker 3: Bengals franchise ever since the franchise has been has been formed.

668
00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 3: I mean it is. It's unbelievable and it doesn't have

669
00:31:07,240 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 3: to be. You know, a Pro Bowl tight end either.

670
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:13,600
Speaker 3: You know, if you're capable and you play the tight

671
00:31:13,720 --> 00:31:16,600
Speaker 3: end position, man, you're looking your chops hoping you get

672
00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 3: the Bengals on your schedule. Yeah.

673
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:21,320
Speaker 2: For the pace of a seventeen game season, that's a

674
00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,720
Speaker 2: pace out of the tight ends against the Bengals of

675
00:31:23,760 --> 00:31:26,960
Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty eight catch season for sixteen hundred

676
00:31:27,040 --> 00:31:29,920
Speaker 2: yards and twenty touchdowns. And man, I got to think

677
00:31:29,920 --> 00:31:32,440
Speaker 2: if you're an opposing offensive coordinator, you're sitting down to

678
00:31:32,440 --> 00:31:34,040
Speaker 2: look at the tape each week and go on, we

679
00:31:34,160 --> 00:31:35,600
Speaker 2: are targeting their linebackers.

680
00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:40,680
Speaker 3: Yeah. Absolutely, And you know that Lamar Jackson is doing that.

681
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,440
Speaker 3: He plays against the Bengals twice a year every year.

682
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:46,000
Speaker 3: He knows what the Bengals are struggling with at the

683
00:31:46,080 --> 00:31:48,760
Speaker 3: tight end position, and he's got a Pro bowler at

684
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 3: that spot. So I mean he's going to utilize that. Dude.

685
00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,800
Speaker 3: And the pair of tight ends that hit the field

686
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:59,240
Speaker 3: for the Buffalo Bills yesterday, Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox,

687
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,120
Speaker 3: the two DK man, they did a job. They did

688
00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:05,120
Speaker 3: a job on the Bengals. They really did, and and

689
00:32:05,360 --> 00:32:08,320
Speaker 3: uh man over and over again when they needed a

690
00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:11,320
Speaker 3: big play. Yep, when when when things were on the line,

691
00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 3: the tight end position got first look. Yeah.

692
00:32:14,160 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 2: I was talking to a big fantasy football friend of mine.

693
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,200
Speaker 2: He says, one of the easiest calls in fantasy football

694
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,239
Speaker 2: each week is to start the tight end. Who goes

695
00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: against the Bengals? Right, we just and if you don't

696
00:32:24,440 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 2: have them, pick them up on the waiver wire. Well,

697
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,640
Speaker 2: head down the stretch on our first hour. Here from

698
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:31,840
Speaker 2: DJ Turner who made the strip and more. It's Bengals

699
00:32:31,880 --> 00:32:33,880
Speaker 2: on in the Bengals Radio network and seven hundred w

700
00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:39,480
Speaker 2: l W. They hit down the stretch in our first

701
00:32:39,520 --> 00:32:41,680
Speaker 2: hour to out of Bengals on of the Bengals Radio

702
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:44,040
Speaker 2: network and seven hundred wl you.

703
00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 3: At Lance's time for the cattering health injury report, and

704
00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 3: there really wasn't anything significant. T Higgins got dinged up again,

705
00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:53,960
Speaker 3: hit his head on the turf. I went into the

706
00:32:54,480 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 3: into the the blue tent to get to get looked at,

707
00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 3: and he was right back out in the football field.

708
00:32:59,560 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 3: Gotta have that blue tent quickly. And you know some

709
00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:05,560
Speaker 3: some minor you know bumps and bruises. I'm trying to

710
00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 3: think of the raven that was rolling his shoulder, you know,

711
00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,320
Speaker 3: trying to get that arm loose and keep his shoulder loose.

712
00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:14,800
Speaker 3: But he it was a linebacker. I'm thinking he only

713
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 3: made me missed a snap or two. So overall, for

714
00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:20,520
Speaker 3: as physical as that game was, as hard as they played,

715
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,760
Speaker 3: they did avoid injury. And that's that's always good news.

716
00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 3: And it's presented by Kettering Healthy, official healthcare provider of

717
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals, providing the best care for the best fans.

718
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and for a moment, I thought we'll talk about

719
00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:34,640
Speaker 2: tea later. Out of the hour, he came out of

720
00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,040
Speaker 2: the out of the tent. Okay, Joseph o' side left

721
00:33:37,080 --> 00:33:38,040
Speaker 2: briefly with the shin.

722
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, he got right, So that was a good thing.

723
00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,280
Speaker 2: So yeah, all all things considered, not bad on a

724
00:33:43,400 --> 00:33:46,280
Speaker 2: day like that. Let's pick it up with DJ Turner,

725
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:48,440
Speaker 2: who turned in a big play in the game, got

726
00:33:48,480 --> 00:33:50,760
Speaker 2: the strip of the goal line yesterday. Here from our

727
00:33:50,800 --> 00:33:53,200
Speaker 2: friend Joe D Joe Danim at Fox nineteen, part of

728
00:33:53,280 --> 00:33:55,080
Speaker 2: its conversation with DJ Turner.

729
00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 11: Okay, hard one to swallow. How much respect do you

730
00:33:58,720 --> 00:34:01,480
Speaker 11: have for a guy like Josh Allen. Look, you guys

731
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 11: have one of the best quarterbacks in the league. So

732
00:34:03,440 --> 00:34:06,480
Speaker 11: today when you have a game against Josh Allen, how

733
00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:07,720
Speaker 11: difficult of a matchup is it.

734
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's definitely a difficult one.

735
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,360
Speaker 19: Two top quarterbacks going at it, you know, but we

736
00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:15,960
Speaker 19: got to find a way to get that up.

737
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 11: Okay, the big play at the goal line when the

738
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,279
Speaker 11: fumble was forced, Can you take us through that play

739
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:22,399
Speaker 11: and how the play was made?

740
00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 3: Uh?

741
00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:24,200
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean it was just on a like what

742
00:34:24,320 --> 00:34:27,399
Speaker 19: two or three yard line? Best options getting the ball out?

743
00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:32,000
Speaker 19: It's snowing cold, so you know, it's really what I

744
00:34:32,120 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 19: was going for.

745
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:34,880
Speaker 11: Is that something that is taught for you guys in

746
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:36,279
Speaker 11: that situation to go for the ball?

747
00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:38,480
Speaker 19: Yeah, for sure, we always try to go for the ball.

748
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:41,200
Speaker 11: It felt like momentum was on your side in the

749
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:43,719
Speaker 11: second half. We've seen this team put away these games

750
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,279
Speaker 11: so many different times. When a team makes a play

751
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:48,359
Speaker 11: like Buffalo did with the pick six, how hard does

752
00:34:48,360 --> 00:34:51,080
Speaker 11: it take that kind of a punch and finish a game.

753
00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:52,799
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean it's hard, but we just have found

754
00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,799
Speaker 19: a way. That's really the biggest thing. Like two good

755
00:34:55,840 --> 00:34:58,239
Speaker 19: teams going you know, stuff gonna happen. We've got to

756
00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:01,080
Speaker 19: find a way, and just find a way.

757
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:01,960
Speaker 4: He does, just get a dupe.

758
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:03,759
Speaker 11: A lot of people in this room said this felt

759
00:35:03,800 --> 00:35:05,759
Speaker 11: like a playoff atmosphere today. Did it feel like that

760
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:06,000
Speaker 11: to you?

761
00:35:06,719 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 19: Yeah, I mean I would think so. I haven't played

762
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:11,840
Speaker 19: in playoff yet, but I would think so.

763
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:15,719
Speaker 11: Okay, when this team looks at the rest of the

764
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 11: schedule now and you have four games left and the

765
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,520
Speaker 11: four and nine, there was so much excitement DJ that

766
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:21,560
Speaker 11: after you beat Baltimore and see if you guys could

767
00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:23,440
Speaker 11: run the table, what do you play for now?

768
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 3: Wait? Is that want to know? Every week?

769
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 4: That's the only option.

770
00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:31,160
Speaker 19: We was playing for the same thing we was this week,

771
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,680
Speaker 19: you know. I mean, it's your film, our team. You know,

772
00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,879
Speaker 19: I do want to know every week, they don't matter

773
00:35:38,400 --> 00:35:39,520
Speaker 19: circumstance of anything.

774
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:41,400
Speaker 4: That's what we need to do every.

775
00:35:41,239 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 2: Week, DJ Turner. After the game, coming up hour two,

776
00:35:44,520 --> 00:35:47,759
Speaker 2: you'll hear from T Higgins, Jamar Chase, Geno Stone, and

777
00:35:48,160 --> 00:35:50,840
Speaker 2: a whole lot more to sort through from yesterday and

778
00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:53,840
Speaker 2: a thirty nine thirty four loss to those Buffalo Bills.

779
00:35:53,920 --> 00:35:56,840
Speaker 2: It's Bengals Line on the Bengals Radio Network and seven

780
00:35:56,960 --> 00:36:04,960
Speaker 2: hundred WLW. Hey, welcome back again on Bengals on this

781
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,880
Speaker 2: Monday night, about to unpack our number two of our

782
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:11,880
Speaker 2: journey through Bengals conversation. Bengals fall to the Buffalo Bills

783
00:36:11,960 --> 00:36:15,560
Speaker 2: yesterday thirty nine thirty four, the final score. We've got

784
00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 2: plenty to work through in this hour. Let's get into

785
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 2: the performance by t Higgins. We talked about the toughness

786
00:36:21,600 --> 00:36:25,240
Speaker 2: he showed yesterday, the return from the concussion. He's targeted

787
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 2: eleven times. He has six catches ninety two yards, an

788
00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,560
Speaker 2: average of fifteen point three a catch a long of

789
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 2: twenty five at touchdown two touchdowns on the day. Here

790
00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:37,040
Speaker 2: is Tea after the game on the performance and the loss.

791
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,680
Speaker 3: That catch you made that touchdown catch, It didn't even

792
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,320
Speaker 3: not brace the Frida.

793
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 20: Uh, I mean, man, just try to make a play

794
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 20: on the ball.

795
00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 4: And was able to.

796
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 3: See how frustrating is given the fact that he guys

797
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,360
Speaker 3: played pretty much the game you wanted to play for.

798
00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:58,160
Speaker 3: I had to say, yeah, Ages, it's a flipfles sweatch. Yeah.

799
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,680
Speaker 21: Man, it's very frustrating obviously like he wants to lose,

800
00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,319
Speaker 21: especially when he was up mostly the whole game.

801
00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:03,759
Speaker 8: Uh.

802
00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:04,920
Speaker 20: Those last two turnovers.

803
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:05,719
Speaker 4: You know it cost us.

804
00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,919
Speaker 20: You can't hand those, but you gotta get it fixed.

805
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:09,839
Speaker 20: It can be better next week.

806
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:12,960
Speaker 18: The way you guys started touchdown drives on your first

807
00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:15,440
Speaker 18: three possessions, did it feel like that playoff game all

808
00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:18,319
Speaker 18: over again, the way that you came out and really

809
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 18: dominated early.

810
00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:20,040
Speaker 20: Yeah, man, it felt good.

811
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,000
Speaker 21: You know, we just gotta keep putting the pressure on

812
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 21: you know, you know obviously, like I just said to him, Uh,

813
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:28,360
Speaker 21: those two turnovers at the end cost us. Uh, we

814
00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:30,440
Speaker 21: can't hand those and just keep putting pressure on 'em

815
00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:31,920
Speaker 21: and you know, try to find a win.

816
00:37:32,480 --> 00:37:35,560
Speaker 18: Wasn't that case really where those turnovers were Bengals mistakes?

817
00:37:35,560 --> 00:37:38,120
Speaker 18: I mean, Christian Benford, that was a great play, right.

818
00:37:38,120 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 21: Uh, God made a hell of a play. Uh No,

819
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:42,040
Speaker 21: So you know, I get gotta get pros where where

820
00:37:42,160 --> 00:37:43,800
Speaker 21: when it's due. Uh he made a hell of a

821
00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:45,400
Speaker 21: play and made a good ball. They good play on

822
00:37:45,440 --> 00:37:47,960
Speaker 21: the ball, so you know, and then you know the

823
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,920
Speaker 21: second one, you know, got tipped. You know, tips and overthrows.

824
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,359
Speaker 21: You know, it's it's tough, so it's gotta be better.

825
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 11: How tough as a tea when you see what the

826
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:58,919
Speaker 11: offense looks like when you have everybody and you guys

827
00:37:58,960 --> 00:38:01,799
Speaker 11: who out to score thirty plus points, that it might

828
00:38:01,880 --> 00:38:03,960
Speaker 11: be too late in the season to get to where

829
00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:04,400
Speaker 11: you wanna go.

830
00:38:05,080 --> 00:38:07,839
Speaker 21: Uh it's tough, you know. You know, we definitely wanted

831
00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,839
Speaker 21: this win today. Uh, but it didn't happen.

832
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:14,680
Speaker 11: So for you, we we know you came back from

833
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,040
Speaker 11: the concussion or to missing last week. You took some

834
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:21,239
Speaker 11: hard falls, landing on the ground awkwardly. How difficult was

835
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,040
Speaker 11: it for you to make it all the way through

836
00:38:23,120 --> 00:38:23,480
Speaker 11: this game?

837
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:26,840
Speaker 20: You know, I'm a I'm a soldier, you know what

838
00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 20: I mean. So soldiers take hits.

839
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 21: You know, it happens. It's football, It's the name of

840
00:38:32,239 --> 00:38:35,280
Speaker 21: the game. Uh, you gotta get up next play. Mentally,

841
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:36,080
Speaker 21: did you try.

842
00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:37,160
Speaker 22: To invent somebody to stay in the game?

843
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 2: Off?

844
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,799
Speaker 22: It looked like they kind of valua val what evaluated

845
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 22: you a couple of times? I mean, what was kind

846
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:43,759
Speaker 22: of the conversations you have with the traders.

847
00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,040
Speaker 21: Regular Uh, you know, going through the concussion testing things.

848
00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,759
Speaker 21: But you know, past those so I was able to

849
00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:49,600
Speaker 21: go back and keep playing.

850
00:38:49,719 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 7: Was there aught?

851
00:38:50,320 --> 00:38:52,320
Speaker 22: You know, given the history of you saying, hey, you know,

852
00:38:52,480 --> 00:38:54,600
Speaker 22: maybe wanna not playing this given what happened. I mean,

853
00:38:54,640 --> 00:38:56,960
Speaker 22: how much did you think about maybe sitting out the rest.

854
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:57,080
Speaker 18: Of the game.

855
00:38:57,080 --> 00:38:58,080
Speaker 20: I didn't think about that at all.

856
00:38:58,200 --> 00:38:59,920
Speaker 21: Why cause I'm a I'm a I'm a team for

857
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:02,239
Speaker 21: you know what I mean. Uh, my team needed me,

858
00:39:02,280 --> 00:39:03,600
Speaker 21: you know, I feel like they did. So I went

859
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,520
Speaker 21: out there and played, try to dog this out with

860
00:39:05,560 --> 00:39:05,879
Speaker 21: my team.

861
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 11: Was it getting frustrated that you seem to keep landing

862
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:10,800
Speaker 11: so hard? I mean, you know, football players, I get it,

863
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:12,680
Speaker 11: but sometimes you can brace your fall. It felt like

864
00:39:12,719 --> 00:39:14,839
Speaker 11: you had a lot of falls today that you really

865
00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 11: could even brace yourself.

866
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:17,439
Speaker 3: It's well, man, it's ball.

867
00:39:18,200 --> 00:39:20,480
Speaker 18: I heard Jamar say to you before the game. Hey,

868
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,440
Speaker 18: the weather's not bad? What was it like out there

869
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:24,040
Speaker 18: for you guys?

870
00:39:24,320 --> 00:39:25,160
Speaker 20: Snow cold?

871
00:39:25,239 --> 00:39:29,439
Speaker 18: To me, I don't like the snow, which Javari trying

872
00:39:29,480 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 18: to convince you. Do you think that it's not so bad?

873
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:32,120
Speaker 2: Nah?

874
00:39:32,360 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 21: Uh, I just think the thing was saying that cause

875
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 21: it was a little colder in Baltimore. So uh that's

876
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:38,080
Speaker 21: probably while.

877
00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 11: What one had a touchdown catches that just team needs

878
00:39:40,520 --> 00:39:41,360
Speaker 11: to play gotta make it.

879
00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:44,319
Speaker 21: I mean, yeah, you know we knew when I when

880
00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:46,399
Speaker 21: it when it was when it was called I knew

881
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,920
Speaker 21: somebody was gonna have to make a play, So whether

882
00:39:48,000 --> 00:39:49,920
Speaker 21: it came to me or somebody else, play would have

883
00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:50,319
Speaker 21: to be made.

884
00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:52,480
Speaker 7: So what's your talking part about losing this one?

885
00:39:53,840 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 20: We needed to win, you know what I mean to

886
00:39:56,760 --> 00:39:59,480
Speaker 20: you know, have better chances of you know, making it. Uh,

887
00:39:59,560 --> 00:40:00,359
Speaker 20: we just need to win.

888
00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 22: So I know how welly y'all played last week, how

889
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 22: wey y'all played for most of this game, and now

890
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 22: giving where you're out with the record, how much harder

891
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 22: does that make call what happened today?

892
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,560
Speaker 20: I mean it makes it hard.

893
00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,879
Speaker 21: I mean we got to come back, you know, watch

894
00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,319
Speaker 21: your film, correct what we did wrong, and just try

895
00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:16,080
Speaker 21: to be better next week.

896
00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 6: Is starting to feel like the season is slipping away.

897
00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:23,120
Speaker 3: Oh that's exact question.

898
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:26,200
Speaker 2: T after the game and David thought it was big

899
00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:29,200
Speaker 2: coming off the concussion. They got him involved immediately. He

900
00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 2: had three catches on the opening drive and kind of

901
00:40:32,239 --> 00:40:35,279
Speaker 2: announced that tea was ready and let's go, and it

902
00:40:35,560 --> 00:40:36,960
Speaker 2: was the start of a big day for him.

903
00:40:37,120 --> 00:40:40,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, it really was. The Uh. The Bills had a

904
00:40:40,520 --> 00:40:42,640
Speaker 3: tough time matching up with t and he is He's

905
00:40:42,719 --> 00:40:47,440
Speaker 3: a tough match up. The very few defensive backs have

906
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:51,239
Speaker 3: big corners the size that can you know, handle and

907
00:40:51,320 --> 00:40:54,200
Speaker 3: battle T Higgins on a snap by snap basis. So

908
00:40:54,360 --> 00:40:58,200
Speaker 3: he is an automatic mismatch. I mean, he is a unique,

909
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:01,640
Speaker 3: unique guy. He's one of the biggest receivers in the

910
00:41:01,719 --> 00:41:07,440
Speaker 3: National Football League really overall, and he very athletic for

911
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,120
Speaker 3: his size, as we talked about, and he's a weapon.

912
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:14,120
Speaker 3: He's a guy that loves the game of football too.

913
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 3: I mean he works. He takes nothing for granted. He

914
00:41:17,600 --> 00:41:22,279
Speaker 3: always wants to get better. He is works hard. He's

915
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:24,839
Speaker 3: one of the first guys on the field every day,

916
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:26,680
Speaker 3: one of the last guys to leave. He puts an

917
00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,879
Speaker 3: extra time with Joe Burrow. Football is important to this kid.

918
00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:31,080
Speaker 4: It was.

919
00:41:31,880 --> 00:41:34,400
Speaker 2: It was a scary moment when he made the leaping

920
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 2: attempt and fell and you could see his head smacked

921
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,280
Speaker 2: the guy on the turf like the concussion and bounced

922
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:42,120
Speaker 2: early and he sat up and on the TV replay

923
00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:45,200
Speaker 2: you saw him point his finger to his helmet indicating

924
00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:48,000
Speaker 2: my head and went to the blue ten. And you're thinking, man,

925
00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:52,479
Speaker 2: that you get one concussion and you worry about things

926
00:41:52,560 --> 00:41:54,760
Speaker 2: piling up from there. But he was able to return.

927
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:57,840
Speaker 2: It made that beauty of a one handed catch and

928
00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,120
Speaker 2: just a really strong perform. It's a on a brutally

929
00:42:01,239 --> 00:42:03,560
Speaker 2: cold day with a hard field, and he got through

930
00:42:03,600 --> 00:42:04,440
Speaker 2: all of it yesterday.

931
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:07,759
Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean concussions when you when you bang your

932
00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:11,200
Speaker 3: head on the turf, your your eyes they don't they

933
00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:12,920
Speaker 3: don't roll up in the back of your head literally,

934
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:15,759
Speaker 3: but you lose focus. I mean, you're you're just you're, you're,

935
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:19,000
Speaker 3: you're out of whack. I mean, you can't sleep, clearly,

936
00:42:19,080 --> 00:42:22,440
Speaker 3: it's you never pass an eye vision test, and it's

937
00:42:22,520 --> 00:42:25,759
Speaker 3: it's like those little swimmers that you know, you go

938
00:42:25,840 --> 00:42:28,200
Speaker 3: through your eyes. You have a little bit of that.

939
00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 3: So you're trying to shake it off and see how

940
00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:33,360
Speaker 3: bad it is. If you have a serious concussion, you're

941
00:42:33,400 --> 00:42:36,120
Speaker 3: going to be, you know, trying to trying to get

942
00:42:36,160 --> 00:42:40,680
Speaker 3: your eyes straight for a while. Fortunately for the Bengals

943
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 3: and for t Higgins, he was able to shake that

944
00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:42,640
Speaker 3: one off.

945
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:44,840
Speaker 2: We're gonna hear from Jamar in our next segment. But

946
00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 2: let's uh, while we're talking about the offense. Uh. The

947
00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:50,720
Speaker 2: one thing that I think was surprising was especially considering

948
00:42:50,960 --> 00:42:53,719
Speaker 2: Buffalo's struggles to defend the run. I think going into

949
00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:55,879
Speaker 2: the game they were thirtieth I think they were giving

950
00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:59,200
Speaker 2: up five or five point two yards per caring Bengals

951
00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,720
Speaker 2: just never really got the run game untracked. Yesterday Somaj

952
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:06,600
Speaker 2: p Ryan had some really hard, tough runs. But Chase Brown,

953
00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:09,360
Speaker 2: for his streak of six straight games over one hundred

954
00:43:09,400 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 2: yards total yards from scrimmage, he just didn't get it

955
00:43:12,600 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 2: going really at all yesterday.

956
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:17,640
Speaker 3: No, he really didn't, and numbers back it up. I mean,

957
00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,640
Speaker 3: the average less than two yards of carry. Twelve carries

958
00:43:20,680 --> 00:43:23,440
Speaker 3: twenty three yards one point nine A long carry of

959
00:43:23,520 --> 00:43:27,320
Speaker 3: five was a touchdown, so he did put a touchdown

960
00:43:27,400 --> 00:43:30,279
Speaker 3: up on the board. But you're right, p Ryan, five

961
00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,520
Speaker 3: point two yards per but he only carried it six times,

962
00:43:34,160 --> 00:43:39,880
Speaker 3: six times for thirty one yards. So maybe in hindsight think, okay,

963
00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 3: maybe maybe we should have worked that big horse a

964
00:43:42,440 --> 00:43:44,920
Speaker 3: little bit more and let him beat on the Buffalo

965
00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:47,640
Speaker 3: Bills and wear them down a little bit, and maybe

966
00:43:47,680 --> 00:43:49,520
Speaker 3: that has slowed their pass rush down. If they have

967
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:53,279
Speaker 3: to concern themselves so much with you know, a big

968
00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:55,919
Speaker 3: guy between the tackles, a big horse like p Rand

969
00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,520
Speaker 3: that they can do some damage.

970
00:43:57,520 --> 00:43:59,320
Speaker 2: Boy, and he on the on the opening drive, p

971
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,960
Speaker 2: Ride had that third and six catch and the fight,

972
00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:04,640
Speaker 2: the extra effort to keep that drive alive, which was big.

973
00:44:04,760 --> 00:44:06,840
Speaker 2: He at a third and one conversion, he had a

974
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:10,120
Speaker 2: nine yard run. And the one thing that appear different

975
00:44:10,160 --> 00:44:12,800
Speaker 2: about Chase Chase Brown, and I don't know if it

976
00:44:12,880 --> 00:44:15,680
Speaker 2: was weather in traction, he just didn't seem to run

977
00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,200
Speaker 2: with as much I don't know purpose. There was a

978
00:44:18,239 --> 00:44:21,320
Speaker 2: little more tentative of of like the tap tail, like

979
00:44:21,400 --> 00:44:23,120
Speaker 2: which way am I going? Where am I going? He's

980
00:44:23,160 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 2: been decisive in that run where he's been really good

981
00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 2: the previous six weeks.

982
00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:27,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I know what you mean. It looked like he

983
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:30,400
Speaker 3: running on eggshells a little bit, you know, And and uh,

984
00:44:30,719 --> 00:44:34,360
Speaker 3: you know, not not quite sure exactly of his footing.

985
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:37,080
Speaker 2: And Samaj is not that way. He'll just batter you.

986
00:44:37,320 --> 00:44:39,040
Speaker 2: You know, you may hit him, but he's gonna hit you.

987
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:40,880
Speaker 3: He's going to hit you. And the thing I like

988
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:45,200
Speaker 3: about Samaj watching him always has a forward body lean,

989
00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,560
Speaker 3: never runs upright, always has a body lean. He's going

990
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:50,640
Speaker 3: to smack you, and and uh, and he's going to

991
00:44:50,840 --> 00:44:53,600
Speaker 3: give you little hitting surface because when you're on a

992
00:44:54,040 --> 00:44:56,520
Speaker 3: forty five degree incline light to rape boy, it's like

993
00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:58,600
Speaker 3: it's hard to get you know, a big hit on him.

994
00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,720
Speaker 3: So for his big a bu he is, his running

995
00:45:01,800 --> 00:45:05,160
Speaker 3: style is uh is pretty dynamic. I mean it's a

996
00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,520
Speaker 3: one two punch. He's got a tough running style to

997
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:09,000
Speaker 3: tackle and he's a big old horse behind it.

998
00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:09,279
Speaker 16: Yeah.

999
00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,440
Speaker 2: They always say low man wins we get you know

1000
00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,600
Speaker 2: how you're like leaning like I can't get under you.

1001
00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, and if and if you do try to lower everything,

1002
00:45:16,920 --> 00:45:17,640
Speaker 3: he'll run you over.

1003
00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 4: You know.

1004
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:21,000
Speaker 3: So it's like, damn, I'm the damnified doing damnified don't

1005
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:21,600
Speaker 3: here with this guy.

1006
00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:23,759
Speaker 2: He's got like a built in He's the type of

1007
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:25,960
Speaker 2: running back there's always like a built in extra yard

1008
00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,200
Speaker 2: because he's always falling forward. So when you get him,

1009
00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:30,359
Speaker 2: he's he's, you know, tackle on one more yard gain.

1010
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it is. I mean when he when he

1011
00:45:32,600 --> 00:45:35,160
Speaker 3: gets tackled for no gain, you don't really see him

1012
00:45:35,160 --> 00:45:36,759
Speaker 3: get tackled for lost. Well, when you see him get

1013
00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:39,480
Speaker 3: tackled for no gain, it's like, man, as an offensive line,

1014
00:45:39,560 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 3: you go back to him and say, man, we sucked

1015
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:45,560
Speaker 3: on that play because I exactly if if p Ryan

1016
00:45:45,640 --> 00:45:48,040
Speaker 3: can't get in the yards off and and nobody is yeah.

1017
00:45:47,960 --> 00:45:49,960
Speaker 2: No doubt, no doubt. All right, still ahead. We heard

1018
00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:52,520
Speaker 2: from t in this segment. Let's hear from Jamar on

1019
00:45:52,719 --> 00:45:55,160
Speaker 2: his day as we roll through Bengals Lite on this

1020
00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:58,799
Speaker 2: Monday night on the Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW.

1021
00:46:06,840 --> 00:46:08,680
Speaker 2: We keep moving with things along on this plenty and

1022
00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,120
Speaker 2: that Offendals line the Bengals. We're new network at seven

1023
00:46:11,160 --> 00:46:14,000
Speaker 2: hunter WLW lands for chemist day, blap them hanging out

1024
00:46:14,040 --> 00:46:17,320
Speaker 2: sorting through yesterday. Let's talk Jamar Chase targeted eight times,

1025
00:46:17,840 --> 00:46:21,640
Speaker 2: five catches forty four yards along of sixteen. Here's Jamar

1026
00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 2: after the game.

1027
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,040
Speaker 11: Pick six was one of the bigger plays of the game.

1028
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,120
Speaker 11: Is that just a risk on that play that if

1029
00:46:29,160 --> 00:46:31,040
Speaker 11: a guy makes a great play like that, there's just

1030
00:46:31,600 --> 00:46:33,680
Speaker 11: you tip your cap and you say great play and

1031
00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:34,040
Speaker 11: move on.

1032
00:46:35,680 --> 00:46:38,680
Speaker 9: Yeah, pretty much great play called by him first time

1033
00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:40,919
Speaker 9: doing a safety blitz on from my side the whole

1034
00:46:40,960 --> 00:46:42,799
Speaker 9: game pretty much just show cloud the whole game.

1035
00:46:42,800 --> 00:46:43,440
Speaker 4: Whinside love it.

1036
00:46:43,520 --> 00:46:46,680
Speaker 11: So how difficult is it because then they come back

1037
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:48,960
Speaker 11: with another interception to take that kind of a body

1038
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:50,520
Speaker 11: blow and still try to finish.

1039
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:50,880
Speaker 3: A game of the win.

1040
00:46:51,880 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 4: Just not a good play about dlining their hands out'

1041
00:46:53,600 --> 00:46:54,480
Speaker 4: make an ampag on the play.

1042
00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,160
Speaker 18: I feel like in the last two weeks, you guys

1043
00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,560
Speaker 18: showed what this team can be.

1044
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:02,719
Speaker 4: Nah, I feel like we did it a whole Yeah,

1045
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:03,879
Speaker 4: not just last two weeks.

1046
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,120
Speaker 11: But when you have the whole offense healthy the way

1047
00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:09,239
Speaker 11: you've had now and you've see the the amount of

1048
00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:11,799
Speaker 11: points you're putting up, is it harder to swallow Jamar

1049
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,880
Speaker 11: knowing that if you had Joe and the whole offense

1050
00:47:14,920 --> 00:47:16,640
Speaker 11: the whole year, maybe you wouldn't be in this position.

1051
00:47:17,719 --> 00:47:18,960
Speaker 4: Uh. Hard to say at the end of the day.

1052
00:47:19,320 --> 00:47:20,759
Speaker 9: Uh, we can't really look at him and put all

1053
00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,800
Speaker 9: the pressure on him for making plays and trying to

1054
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 9: be perfect play the game.

1055
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:25,560
Speaker 4: But uh, we gotta look at ourselves.

1056
00:47:25,560 --> 00:47:29,000
Speaker 9: We gotta look at the uh the other quarterbacks, the defense,

1057
00:47:29,080 --> 00:47:30,719
Speaker 9: the backups, everybody else that has to play.

1058
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,719
Speaker 4: They rolling and step into the game when they when

1059
00:47:32,760 --> 00:47:33,359
Speaker 4: they number called.

1060
00:47:34,440 --> 00:47:36,400
Speaker 18: How much you matt a Uh admiration do you have

1061
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,160
Speaker 18: for Tea coming back from his concussion and playing the

1062
00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:41,839
Speaker 18: way he did and well the hard hits that uh

1063
00:47:42,000 --> 00:47:42,720
Speaker 18: he felt today?

1064
00:47:43,640 --> 00:47:47,080
Speaker 9: Uh, nothing less. I expect nothing less from him, you

1065
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:48,320
Speaker 9: know what I'm saying. He's one of the best in

1066
00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,479
Speaker 9: the nation, and I expected a lot.

1067
00:47:51,400 --> 00:47:53,239
Speaker 11: Of guys in here said that today felt like a

1068
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 11: playoff game. You've played in playoff games, you played these

1069
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:57,080
Speaker 11: guys in playoff games.

1070
00:47:57,120 --> 00:47:58,440
Speaker 8: Did it feel like that kind of atmosphere?

1071
00:47:59,040 --> 00:47:59,200
Speaker 1: Nah?

1072
00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:01,680
Speaker 4: Nah, I just not really.

1073
00:48:02,480 --> 00:48:04,840
Speaker 10: Did go show you anything different from than what you

1074
00:48:04,880 --> 00:48:08,200
Speaker 10: saw film this week? Did they show you anything different?

1075
00:48:08,680 --> 00:48:10,319
Speaker 3: No, but you saw the film during that week.

1076
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:10,520
Speaker 8: No.

1077
00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:14,600
Speaker 9: The exactly what they did all week on film played

1078
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:19,040
Speaker 9: six strong, six quarters two, So they did.

1079
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:22,440
Speaker 18: They did the usual people will take you out though, right,

1080
00:48:22,480 --> 00:48:23,520
Speaker 18: I mean that was there game.

1081
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,000
Speaker 4: I mean I guess it was just cloud nothing. I

1082
00:48:28,040 --> 00:48:29,080
Speaker 4: don't normally see.

1083
00:48:29,960 --> 00:48:33,200
Speaker 11: Four nine Jamar. What now do you guys look forward

1084
00:48:33,239 --> 00:48:33,800
Speaker 11: to and play for?

1085
00:48:34,680 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 4: Just keep playing man, finishtone. That's the best we could do.

1086
00:48:38,560 --> 00:48:41,319
Speaker 10: I'm sorry I was late, but we'll pubs review of the.

1087
00:48:41,640 --> 00:48:45,919
Speaker 4: Of the pick six good play by then. I guess

1088
00:48:45,920 --> 00:48:48,520
Speaker 4: he was Woodson right, Caplitz.

1089
00:48:48,280 --> 00:48:51,120
Speaker 2: Jamar after the game and Dave they we talked a

1090
00:48:51,160 --> 00:48:53,440
Speaker 2: little bit earlier, alluded to the fact that they put

1091
00:48:53,520 --> 00:48:56,640
Speaker 2: up a lot of tension towards Uh Jamar. I think

1092
00:48:56,680 --> 00:48:59,880
Speaker 2: he had one catch going into the fourth quarter, then

1093
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,239
Speaker 2: got hot for a little bit of a stretch and

1094
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:04,680
Speaker 2: looking at the numbers. Christian Benford who had the big

1095
00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:08,760
Speaker 2: pick six saw from Next Gen. Christian Benford had sixteen

1096
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:12,360
Speaker 2: matchups against Jamar Chase yesterday. Jamar was thrown at just

1097
00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:16,359
Speaker 2: twice in those sixteen matchups, no receptions and the pick six.

1098
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:19,240
Speaker 2: So Benford had a big day against a big time receiver.

1099
00:49:19,440 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 2: He really did.

1100
00:49:20,120 --> 00:49:22,680
Speaker 3: And that's what teams are starting to do, not just

1101
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:26,919
Speaker 3: the Buffalo Bills, but everybody, particularly division opponents. They're putting

1102
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:29,920
Speaker 3: a shadow on Chase, a guy like Benford who is

1103
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:33,240
Speaker 3: their best cover corner, and then they'll compliment and supplement

1104
00:49:33,320 --> 00:49:35,960
Speaker 3: it with okay, a safety rolling over the top or

1105
00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 3: a nickel corner who's you know, backing off from the

1106
00:49:39,040 --> 00:49:41,400
Speaker 3: nickel corner position and taking the deep part of the

1107
00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,920
Speaker 3: football field as well. So they're doing some combination coverages

1108
00:49:45,000 --> 00:49:50,320
Speaker 3: to combat Jamar Chase's greatness. But man, he you know,

1109
00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:53,719
Speaker 3: you figure if he's one on one the snaps that

1110
00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:57,759
Speaker 3: he is one on one, somebody else has to win. Yes,

1111
00:49:58,000 --> 00:50:01,600
Speaker 3: But what they're doing is they're saying, Okay, well we're

1112
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 3: not We're not taking another guy and putting him on Jamar.

1113
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,200
Speaker 3: So we can put him on Higgins, we can put

1114
00:50:07,239 --> 00:50:08,960
Speaker 3: him on against sticky. We can do it with the

1115
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,600
Speaker 3: Yoci vosh if we so desire. Uh, he's got to

1116
00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:13,320
Speaker 3: prove himself a little bit more, I think before he

1117
00:50:13,440 --> 00:50:19,040
Speaker 3: falls into that category. But you know, the defensive coordinators

1118
00:50:19,040 --> 00:50:21,160
Speaker 3: there are no dummies, man. They're always saying I thinking

1119
00:50:21,200 --> 00:50:23,760
Speaker 3: a step ahead. There's no question about that. But bottom

1120
00:50:23,840 --> 00:50:26,480
Speaker 3: line is Benford played the game of his life.

1121
00:50:26,520 --> 00:50:26,600
Speaker 4: Man.

1122
00:50:26,680 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 3: He played his ass off.

1123
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:31,400
Speaker 2: Yeah. You a quick thought on Yoshi. And it's as

1124
00:50:31,480 --> 00:50:34,839
Speaker 2: he continues to develop, it would seem the the gap

1125
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:38,280
Speaker 2: that he has to close is he'll make a nice play,

1126
00:50:38,680 --> 00:50:41,080
Speaker 2: but he'll have a drop. Yeah, he'll making a just

1127
00:50:41,320 --> 00:50:44,840
Speaker 2: closing that gap of inconsistency to make it more consent.

1128
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:46,799
Speaker 2: That seems like the only thing he's lacking right now,

1129
00:50:46,880 --> 00:50:49,319
Speaker 2: because he'll do some things he say wow, look at

1130
00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:51,640
Speaker 2: that and look at the body, the way he angled

1131
00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,160
Speaker 2: his body and the strength he showed.

1132
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:55,160
Speaker 3: Then he'll have a drop and you say, how do

1133
00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:56,000
Speaker 3: you do that?

1134
00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:56,600
Speaker 4: Yeah?

1135
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:00,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's he is. He's a rare I mean, he

1136
00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:02,719
Speaker 3: can do a lot of things. He might be as

1137
00:51:02,800 --> 00:51:06,440
Speaker 3: gifted an athlete. He's probably the guy on the football

1138
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 3: team that could do the pentathlon and heptathlon and all

1139
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 3: that sort of thing. I mean, the guy can do anything.

1140
00:51:11,480 --> 00:51:13,040
Speaker 3: You can high jump, he can pull vault, he can

1141
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:15,440
Speaker 3: run sprints, you can run distance. I mean he is

1142
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:18,760
Speaker 3: and honestly and truly he is gifted in that regard.

1143
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:24,600
Speaker 3: But you're right, consistency making the catch and making the

1144
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:28,759
Speaker 3: catch at clutch times, you know, being more clutch. Joe

1145
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,920
Speaker 3: Burrow is human, and Joe Burrow, if you drop one,

1146
00:51:32,239 --> 00:51:34,800
Speaker 3: Joe is going to be like, you know, I was

1147
00:51:34,880 --> 00:51:36,880
Speaker 3: kind of counting on that one. I don't think I

1148
00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,400
Speaker 3: could throw the ball any better. Man. I hit you

1149
00:51:38,520 --> 00:51:40,000
Speaker 3: right in the numbers, right and right in the chest,

1150
00:51:40,080 --> 00:51:43,680
Speaker 3: and he didn't finish it for me, So I might

1151
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:45,319
Speaker 3: be going in another direction the next time.

1152
00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,080
Speaker 2: Final thought on Chase. He becomes the fourth player all

1153
00:51:48,239 --> 00:51:51,359
Speaker 2: time with at least one thousand receiving yards and five

1154
00:51:51,520 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 2: touchdowns in each of his first five seasons. The company

1155
00:51:54,880 --> 00:52:00,439
Speaker 2: he's in, aj Green, Justin Jefferson, and Randy Moss bad

1156
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:02,719
Speaker 2: company for guys with at least a thousand yards and

1157
00:52:02,800 --> 00:52:06,480
Speaker 2: five touchdowns in each of their first five seasons.

1158
00:52:06,560 --> 00:52:08,279
Speaker 3: Man, that's a that's a heck of a roll call

1159
00:52:08,400 --> 00:52:12,160
Speaker 3: right there, and it is Hall of Famers future Hall

1160
00:52:12,200 --> 00:52:15,839
Speaker 3: of Famers, each and every one. There's no doubt about that. So, boy,

1161
00:52:16,719 --> 00:52:19,080
Speaker 3: Jamar Chase season some high cotton there, man, that's a

1162
00:52:19,280 --> 00:52:21,400
Speaker 3: that's a hell of a start to a season.

1163
00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:24,680
Speaker 2: He's sitting on four now, four hundred and eighty six

1164
00:52:24,920 --> 00:52:28,239
Speaker 2: catches in his fifth season, not even done. Still four

1165
00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:31,440
Speaker 2: games left, four hundred and eighty six catches for jam.

1166
00:52:31,520 --> 00:52:34,640
Speaker 3: Chase, four games left. If he catches fourteen balls and

1167
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 3: four games, which you think is honest a foregone conclusion,

1168
00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:41,480
Speaker 3: that'll be five hundred catches, one hundred a year. What

1169
00:52:42,160 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 3: one hundred catches a year? Just plug them in, man, unbelievable, amazing.

1170
00:52:46,239 --> 00:52:48,200
Speaker 2: Stuck some more defense on the other side as we

1171
00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:52,200
Speaker 2: continue here from Geno Stone and more. He's Dave Blapham.

Speaker 2: Let's flip it back on the other side of the script.

1186
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:40,680
Speaker 2: Let's talk defense and Geno Stone Bengals safety on their

1187
00:53:40,719 --> 00:53:43,200
Speaker 2: performance yesterday. Here's Gino after the game.

1188
00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:48,000
Speaker 11: How difficult is it when momentum shifts the way it

1189
00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,160
Speaker 11: did in the fourth quarter, a couple of picks all

1190
00:53:50,200 --> 00:53:51,759
Speaker 11: of a sudden, you guys were in control and then

1191
00:53:51,800 --> 00:53:53,440
Speaker 11: you're not in control. How hard is that as a

1192
00:53:53,440 --> 00:53:55,880
Speaker 11: football player with momentum on the road shifts like that.

1193
00:53:56,000 --> 00:53:58,480
Speaker 23: Yeah, No, definitely difficult, But us things you try to

1194
00:53:58,520 --> 00:54:02,000
Speaker 23: overcome if you want to really good team. So you know,

1195
00:54:02,120 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 23: I think we still handle that situation. Well, I think

1196
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,360
Speaker 23: we would have held him three points instead of let

1197
00:54:06,480 --> 00:54:06,799
Speaker 23: him score.

1198
00:54:06,880 --> 00:54:07,200
Speaker 2: Things like that.

1199
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,959
Speaker 8: We've been a different situation. But yeah, it's definitely difficult though.

1200
00:54:10,160 --> 00:54:12,200
Speaker 11: You play with one of the best quarterbacks in the league,

1201
00:54:12,239 --> 00:54:14,640
Speaker 11: but Buffalo has one as well. How difficult of a

1202
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:17,520
Speaker 11: matchup is Josh Allen for a defensive player.

1203
00:54:17,640 --> 00:54:19,520
Speaker 23: No, he's definitely difficult. I mean he I think he

1204
00:54:19,600 --> 00:54:21,279
Speaker 23: works best at you extending the players and things like that.

1205
00:54:21,560 --> 00:54:23,960
Speaker 23: He's a really smart guy and really athletics. So once

1206
00:54:24,000 --> 00:54:25,479
Speaker 23: he gets out the pocket he can make things happen

1207
00:54:25,960 --> 00:54:28,400
Speaker 23: in the show today. So you know, that's there's things

1208
00:54:28,440 --> 00:54:30,160
Speaker 23: we have to limit. We still do as good a

1209
00:54:30,239 --> 00:54:30,640
Speaker 23: job of Dan.

1210
00:54:31,080 --> 00:54:32,400
Speaker 11: I think at the beginning we did, but not that

1211
00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,800
Speaker 11: that final third down. You know, the threat is he

1212
00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,080
Speaker 11: could run it, he could throw it. How difficult is

1213
00:54:38,160 --> 00:54:40,400
Speaker 11: that when he has both of those options.

1214
00:54:40,600 --> 00:54:42,480
Speaker 3: Yeah, it means definitely difficult. But I play.

1215
00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:44,600
Speaker 8: You know, you just got to execute. I think we

1216
00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:46,759
Speaker 8: had a good plan for it, and uh.

1217
00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:47,799
Speaker 3: It was a good call.

1218
00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:49,360
Speaker 8: And he's got to execute everyone.

1219
00:54:49,520 --> 00:54:50,439
Speaker 3: Everyone got to do those jobs.

1220
00:54:50,680 --> 00:54:52,120
Speaker 11: There was a lot of excitement in this room. You

1221
00:54:52,160 --> 00:54:55,279
Speaker 11: guys winning Baltimore. There's the thought that you guys can

1222
00:54:55,360 --> 00:54:57,080
Speaker 11: run the table and maybe make the playoffs. But now

1223
00:54:57,120 --> 00:54:59,680
Speaker 11: with four and nine, what's the feeling inside this room?

1224
00:54:59,719 --> 00:55:01,680
Speaker 11: But what you guys can still accomplish.

1225
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:01,560
Speaker 4: This's gout.

1226
00:55:01,640 --> 00:55:02,239
Speaker 8: He's gotta finish.

1227
00:55:02,400 --> 00:55:03,080
Speaker 3: I mean, that's all it is.

1228
00:55:03,120 --> 00:55:06,200
Speaker 23: I mean, we's got you know, don't don't think about

1229
00:55:06,239 --> 00:55:08,320
Speaker 23: anything ahead of the next week or whoever it is.

1230
00:55:08,480 --> 00:55:11,040
Speaker 23: Just got worry about each day, just getting better as

1231
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:12,920
Speaker 23: a pro each day. So that's the only thing we

1232
00:55:12,960 --> 00:55:14,479
Speaker 23: can go look forward to right now, and like everything

1233
00:55:14,560 --> 00:55:16,080
Speaker 23: else saying to you know, playoff from there.

1234
00:55:17,239 --> 00:55:20,840
Speaker 2: Geno Stone after the game, and uh man, Josh Allen

1235
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:27,719
Speaker 2: is such a such a problem from so many different aspects.

1236
00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,840
Speaker 2: I mean, you watch him and you see what he

1237
00:55:29,960 --> 00:55:32,719
Speaker 2: did to roll out and buy time, to extend to

1238
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:36,359
Speaker 2: play and throw a fourth down the touchdown. You watch

1239
00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:38,480
Speaker 2: him take off on the on the the back breaking

1240
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:40,799
Speaker 2: forty yard run, and you look at him and he's

1241
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,520
Speaker 2: what he's listened at six five, two thirty seven. And

1242
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,040
Speaker 2: I keep thinking of trying to think of a cop

1243
00:55:46,120 --> 00:55:49,480
Speaker 2: of a quarterback who can run like he does. They're

1244
00:55:49,520 --> 00:55:53,280
Speaker 2: saying he's not like blazing fast, but he gets gone

1245
00:55:53,440 --> 00:55:55,920
Speaker 2: and he's big enough and strong enough to shed tackles.

1246
00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:57,959
Speaker 2: But I just watch him and I say, I don't

1247
00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,880
Speaker 2: even know who to compare him to. He's just so

1248
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:01,360
Speaker 2: dang impressive.

1249
00:56:01,600 --> 00:56:03,320
Speaker 3: He is, he really is. I mean, he is a

1250
00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 3: He's a specimen and he can do anything you want

1251
00:56:07,400 --> 00:56:11,480
Speaker 3: at the quarterback position. He can throw deep, he can

1252
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:14,879
Speaker 3: throw intermediate short, he's got accuracy. He struggled a little

1253
00:56:14,920 --> 00:56:17,520
Speaker 3: bit with his accuracy yesterday and he's had a little

1254
00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,000
Speaker 3: bit of an off year in that regard. But he

1255
00:56:19,120 --> 00:56:22,440
Speaker 3: can when he's on man, he's pinpoint. He can roll

1256
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:25,720
Speaker 3: to the right, like you said, and you know, tucket

1257
00:56:25,800 --> 00:56:29,640
Speaker 3: and run or hurt you. The thing with him that

1258
00:56:29,800 --> 00:56:32,480
Speaker 3: defensive players hate is when you're in no man's land,

1259
00:56:32,920 --> 00:56:35,280
Speaker 3: you know, and it's like he's approaching the line of scrimmage,

1260
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:37,280
Speaker 3: and do I drop coverage and come up and smack

1261
00:56:37,360 --> 00:56:39,399
Speaker 3: this guy because I don't want him to get ahead

1262
00:56:39,400 --> 00:56:41,960
Speaker 3: of steam, or do I stay in coverage and you know,

1263
00:56:42,120 --> 00:56:44,040
Speaker 3: pay the price when I try to come up there

1264
00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:47,080
Speaker 3: and hit this dude. So he is, he's a weapon man.

1265
00:56:47,160 --> 00:56:50,239
Speaker 3: He's a two way guy, and he can roll to

1266
00:56:50,320 --> 00:56:53,960
Speaker 3: his right, rolls to his left equally effectively. And a

1267
00:56:54,040 --> 00:56:56,640
Speaker 3: lot of times quarterbacks that are right handed rolling the left,

1268
00:56:56,680 --> 00:56:59,719
Speaker 3: they can't get back across their body properly with the

1269
00:57:00,160 --> 00:57:03,920
Speaker 3: good mechanics in the arm swing to complete passes down

1270
00:57:03,960 --> 00:57:05,759
Speaker 3: the football field. But he does man. He throws the

1271
00:57:05,800 --> 00:57:09,319
Speaker 3: ball very very well, rolling to his left. So there's

1272
00:57:09,360 --> 00:57:11,839
Speaker 3: not much that Josh Allen, if anything, that this guy

1273
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:12,239
Speaker 3: can't do.

1274
00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:16,800
Speaker 2: He's completing seventy percent of his passes. He's rushed for

1275
00:57:17,000 --> 00:57:20,640
Speaker 2: four hundred and eighty seven yards. In that rushing total,

1276
00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 2: he's rushed for thirty seven first downs. Yeah, he's rushed

1277
00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 2: for twelve touchdowns. And you add all that up, and

1278
00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:30,439
Speaker 2: you would think that would leave him susceptible to getting

1279
00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,800
Speaker 2: beaten up and banged up and bruised and maybe missing

1280
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:33,280
Speaker 2: some games.

1281
00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:33,720
Speaker 3: Dave.

1282
00:57:33,760 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 2: The only time he's missed games he missed four games

1283
00:57:36,040 --> 00:57:38,760
Speaker 2: his rookie season, had a UCL strain in his elbow.

1284
00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:41,640
Speaker 2: But he's now in his eighth season. He hasn't missed

1285
00:57:41,640 --> 00:57:42,960
Speaker 2: a game since his rookie season.

1286
00:57:43,120 --> 00:57:44,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean those numbers.

1287
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,360
Speaker 2: I mean that is thirty seven first downs rushing for

1288
00:57:47,440 --> 00:57:48,560
Speaker 2: your quarterbacks.

1289
00:57:48,640 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 3: And twelve touchdowns. I mean that's uh. Well, he's won

1290
00:57:52,400 --> 00:57:55,360
Speaker 3: an MVP. He's tracking for another one, A legitimate candidate,

1291
00:57:55,440 --> 00:57:58,640
Speaker 3: there's no question. Usually the MVP does go to somebody

1292
00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 3: that either wins the suit Ball or gets to the

1293
00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,120
Speaker 3: Super Bowl or at least the AFC Championship.

1294
00:58:03,160 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 8: Game.

1295
00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,439
Speaker 3: So you know, time will tell. With respect to Josh Allen,

1296
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:10,400
Speaker 3: there are other candidates you know that are a vying

1297
00:58:10,440 --> 00:58:14,440
Speaker 3: for that opportunity. But man, you know, a two time MVP,

1298
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,880
Speaker 3: now you're talking to some high cotton. There's you know,

1299
00:58:17,000 --> 00:58:19,600
Speaker 3: if you win an MVP, it's a hell of an accomplishment.

1300
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:21,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you think of all the guys that play

1301
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:24,640
Speaker 3: football in the world, and you're the guy that was

1302
00:58:24,720 --> 00:58:27,160
Speaker 3: the best at that sport in the world and to

1303
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:29,880
Speaker 3: do it two times, man, that's that's a hell of

1304
00:58:29,880 --> 00:58:30,640
Speaker 3: an accomplishment.

1305
00:58:30,760 --> 00:58:34,880
Speaker 2: Boy, late, when the Bengals got the sack and pushed

1306
00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,560
Speaker 2: him to third and fifteen, and I'm thinking, oh, right,

1307
00:58:37,760 --> 00:58:39,440
Speaker 2: they're going to get a stop here, and I'll be damn,

1308
00:58:39,480 --> 00:58:41,640
Speaker 2: they're gonna get Joe the ball back and Joe's going

1309
00:58:41,720 --> 00:58:45,240
Speaker 2: to win this game. And then Josh Allen goes forty

1310
00:58:45,360 --> 00:58:48,480
Speaker 2: yards of one of those plays that just it slows

1311
00:58:48,560 --> 00:58:52,160
Speaker 2: down into slow motion as you say no, no, and

1312
00:58:52,400 --> 00:58:56,600
Speaker 2: just watch him run and I don't know, I have

1313
00:58:56,680 --> 00:58:57,800
Speaker 2: to look at the all twenty two.

1314
00:58:57,960 --> 00:58:59,040
Speaker 3: What did you see?

1315
00:58:59,080 --> 00:59:01,720
Speaker 2: What broke down? Everybody wants to know if there was

1316
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,840
Speaker 2: a spy? Why not a spy? If there wasn't. What

1317
00:59:03,960 --> 00:59:05,600
Speaker 2: did you see on a play that breaks down to

1318
00:59:05,640 --> 00:59:08,880
Speaker 2: the point that Josh Allen goes forty yards to just

1319
00:59:09,000 --> 00:59:09,760
Speaker 2: break their back?

1320
00:59:10,200 --> 00:59:11,960
Speaker 3: Well, I don't think there was a spy on the play.

1321
00:59:12,000 --> 00:59:13,760
Speaker 3: If there was, the guy should be cut and they

1322
00:59:13,760 --> 00:59:15,520
Speaker 3: shouldn't have let him get on the bus and go

1323
00:59:15,600 --> 00:59:19,960
Speaker 3: to the airport or let him fly home, because man,

1324
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:22,240
Speaker 3: when he took off, there was nobody within five yards

1325
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:26,480
Speaker 3: of him anywhere. I mean, it was unbelievable. So, yeah,

1326
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:29,880
Speaker 3: they a broken coverage is all I can think of.

1327
00:59:30,000 --> 00:59:33,320
Speaker 3: Somebody just went and attack a route that they shouldn't

1328
00:59:33,400 --> 00:59:38,040
Speaker 3: had no business going and getting nosy about man, Yeah,

1329
00:59:38,240 --> 00:59:41,320
Speaker 3: third and fifteen, forty yard touchdown? Are you kidding me?

1330
00:59:41,840 --> 00:59:44,800
Speaker 3: He also had another third and fifteen, scrambled for seventeen

1331
00:59:44,920 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 3: yards and moved the chains. You convert third and fifteen

1332
00:59:49,440 --> 00:59:53,520
Speaker 3: twice running the football as a quarterback in the National

1333
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:57,920
Speaker 3: Football League. That is a unique weapon, to say the least.

1334
00:59:57,760 --> 00:59:59,560
Speaker 2: You know, and it goes back to what we've said

1335
00:59:59,560 --> 01:00:02,000
Speaker 2: about the defense. They will show flashes and they'll make

1336
01:00:02,040 --> 01:00:04,280
Speaker 2: a strip of the goal line like DJ Turner. You say,

1337
01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,320
Speaker 2: all right, they're starting to get it, and they'll just

1338
01:00:06,520 --> 01:00:08,680
Speaker 2: make a play that just makes you want to pull

1339
01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,320
Speaker 2: your hair out. They'll take a bad angle, Miles Murphy

1340
01:00:11,440 --> 01:00:14,840
Speaker 2: rushes inside and leaves Josh Allen to the outside. Uh

1341
01:00:15,080 --> 01:00:17,840
Speaker 2: DJ had a pass interference. DA's had hands to the face.

1342
01:00:18,200 --> 01:00:22,000
Speaker 2: They just there's that most inopportune moment. There'll be a breakdown,

1343
01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,080
Speaker 2: either trying too hard or being in the wrong spot

1344
01:00:25,200 --> 01:00:27,320
Speaker 2: or taking a bad angle, and it just makes you

1345
01:00:27,400 --> 01:00:28,200
Speaker 2: want to throw things.

1346
01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:30,560
Speaker 3: You know, I think you made a great call. There

1347
01:00:30,560 --> 01:00:34,280
Speaker 3: a great point trying too hard because this group they're

1348
01:00:34,320 --> 01:00:37,360
Speaker 3: not folding their tent. They're not quitting on the football team.

1349
01:00:37,400 --> 01:00:41,160
Speaker 3: They're not quitting on Al Golden. And that's that's the

1350
01:00:41,320 --> 01:00:42,960
Speaker 3: that's the tough thing to watch them, because I mean,

1351
01:00:43,320 --> 01:00:45,439
Speaker 3: watch them bust their ass in practice and they work

1352
01:00:45,480 --> 01:00:48,600
Speaker 3: at it. Man, Al Golden works them hard, and you know,

1353
01:00:48,680 --> 01:00:50,640
Speaker 3: you think, okay, this is the week. You know they're

1354
01:00:50,680 --> 01:00:53,680
Speaker 3: gonna really put it together this week. They maybe a shutout, Hey,

1355
01:00:53,760 --> 01:00:55,680
Speaker 3: pitch a shut out. When's the last time that happened?

1356
01:00:55,720 --> 01:00:58,360
Speaker 3: He Hey, pitch a shut out. Hold them to a

1357
01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:01,680
Speaker 3: you know, a touchdown or touchdown, a field goal, seven,

1358
01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:04,960
Speaker 3: ten points, whatever, and it just it just never materializes.

1359
01:01:05,040 --> 01:01:10,600
Speaker 3: It's got to be unbelievably frustrating that you know, what's

1360
01:01:10,640 --> 01:01:12,800
Speaker 3: it going to take to break that stretch.

1361
01:01:13,360 --> 01:01:16,400
Speaker 2: It's a great question. Sixty four thousand dollars question. Yep,

1362
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:19,800
Speaker 2: Still ahead. Let's go offensive line here from Orlando Brown

1363
01:01:19,840 --> 01:01:21,400
Speaker 2: and talk about the day that was for that O

1364
01:01:21,600 --> 01:01:25,440
Speaker 2: line that allowed just one sack. More as we continue

1374
01:01:58,720 --> 01:02:01,080
Speaker 2: Here's Orlando Brown after the game.

1375
01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:03,840
Speaker 11: It's for thirty plus points. And it felt like there

1376
01:02:03,880 --> 01:02:06,480
Speaker 11: were times, or Landa where you had the game in

1377
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:08,600
Speaker 11: control of the second half. Did you feel like you

1378
01:02:08,720 --> 01:02:10,920
Speaker 11: guys were imposing your well offensively.

1379
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 23: Yeah, you know, sometimes it's hard for me from an

1380
01:02:12,840 --> 01:02:15,200
Speaker 23: offensive line perspective. I'm just trying to keep Joe Clean

1381
01:02:15,640 --> 01:02:18,120
Speaker 23: be physical in the run game, you know, in terms

1382
01:02:18,120 --> 01:02:18,720
Speaker 23: of momentum.

1383
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:20,640
Speaker 3: It's hard to tell you, you know what I mean.

1384
01:02:20,880 --> 01:02:23,480
Speaker 23: I don't have a for sure answer, but I think

1385
01:02:24,720 --> 01:02:26,440
Speaker 23: just in terms of what I was feeling from my

1386
01:02:26,520 --> 01:02:29,240
Speaker 23: perspective up front, I feel like we were handling them

1387
01:02:29,240 --> 01:02:29,680
Speaker 23: pretty well.

1388
01:02:29,840 --> 01:02:31,760
Speaker 11: Part thing is, you see what it looks like now

1389
01:02:31,800 --> 01:02:34,920
Speaker 11: when you have the entire offense healthy back together and

1390
01:02:35,040 --> 01:02:37,320
Speaker 11: it might be too late for you guys to go

1391
01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:39,560
Speaker 11: where you want to go. Is that the hardest part

1392
01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:42,000
Speaker 11: to say that, look what it looks like, but we

1393
01:02:42,120 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 11: might not have the time to do it.

1394
01:02:43,560 --> 01:02:45,640
Speaker 23: Yeah, no, man, I mean, you know, I think what's

1395
01:02:45,640 --> 01:02:48,920
Speaker 23: important is the character of our team, and especially when

1396
01:02:48,960 --> 01:02:50,680
Speaker 23: I look at the front of the room in terms

1397
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:54,920
Speaker 23: of guys like Joe, jamar T, myself, to you know,

1398
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:56,720
Speaker 23: leaders of the offense. Just a bunch of guys that

1399
01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:58,960
Speaker 23: love the game of football, that want to fight, you know,

1400
01:02:59,000 --> 01:03:00,480
Speaker 23: that love to come out here and play for the city,

1401
01:03:00,600 --> 01:03:04,600
Speaker 23: this organization and for each other. And to me, you know,

1402
01:03:04,680 --> 01:03:07,200
Speaker 23: things things will come around, you know, it's it's it's

1403
01:03:07,200 --> 01:03:08,400
Speaker 23: an interesting part about football.

1404
01:03:08,440 --> 01:03:10,320
Speaker 3: This is always important to keep perspective. You know, you

1405
01:03:10,440 --> 01:03:11,960
Speaker 3: never necessarily know how things.

1406
01:03:11,840 --> 01:03:14,760
Speaker 23: Are gonna go. You always uh got to attack. You

1407
01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:16,800
Speaker 23: can't necessarily fill it out. But that's the beauty of

1408
01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:17,160
Speaker 23: the sport.

1409
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:20,440
Speaker 11: When the team has back to back interceptions like that,

1410
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:22,200
Speaker 11: how hard is it to take that kind of a

1411
01:03:22,280 --> 01:03:24,040
Speaker 11: punch and win a game?

1412
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:26,960
Speaker 23: Yeah, yeah, it's that's tough, man, that's tough. And you know,

1413
01:03:27,080 --> 01:03:29,960
Speaker 23: we'll we'll learn from our mistakes and and you know,

1414
01:03:30,120 --> 01:03:31,440
Speaker 23: be able to I guess you could.

1415
01:03:31,240 --> 01:03:32,520
Speaker 3: Say grow or figure that out.

1416
01:03:33,000 --> 01:03:36,920
Speaker 2: Orlando Brown breaking it all down, Joe Burrow through it

1417
01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,120
Speaker 2: thirty six times with sack just once, if I remember correctly,

1418
01:03:40,200 --> 01:03:43,040
Speaker 2: that was the was the blind side sack he took

1419
01:03:43,120 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 2: on a It was on a blitz and it took

1420
01:03:44,520 --> 01:03:46,400
Speaker 2: them out of field goal range. And that's the only time.

1421
01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,560
Speaker 2: I mean, I think you can make it. I don't

1422
01:03:48,560 --> 01:03:50,160
Speaker 2: even think there's an argument to it. The way this

1423
01:03:50,360 --> 01:03:52,680
Speaker 2: offensive line and I know they didn't run it great yesterday,

1424
01:03:52,720 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 2: but the way they've settled in as a group in

1425
01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:58,720
Speaker 2: this stretch here of late is it's been pretty solid,

1426
01:03:58,800 --> 01:03:59,160
Speaker 2: hasn't it.

1427
01:03:59,280 --> 01:04:01,400
Speaker 3: I agree, lance solid is a good word for it.

1428
01:04:01,480 --> 01:04:04,440
Speaker 3: Maybe a cut above solid, you know, is it? Uh,

1429
01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:07,320
Speaker 3: you know, pro Bowl level outstanding no, not not there yet,

1430
01:04:07,360 --> 01:04:12,080
Speaker 3: but go against that Buffalo Bills defensive front and literally

1431
01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:15,520
Speaker 3: not give up a sack other than a free runner

1432
01:04:15,640 --> 01:04:19,760
Speaker 3: Blitzer off the slot corner. And Joe never saw him,

1433
01:04:19,800 --> 01:04:21,920
Speaker 3: like he said, blindside, never got his eyes to that

1434
01:04:22,080 --> 01:04:25,240
Speaker 3: backside at all. And man, that was another play he made.

1435
01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:27,160
Speaker 3: The fact that he held on that football, to me

1436
01:04:27,360 --> 01:04:30,480
Speaker 3: was amazing. He took a shot man and and he

1437
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:32,920
Speaker 3: you know, was able to tucket man put it, put

1438
01:04:32,960 --> 01:04:35,280
Speaker 3: it away and not not lose the football, put it

1439
01:04:35,280 --> 01:04:39,800
Speaker 3: in jeopardy that way. But I talking to the coaches,

1440
01:04:40,040 --> 01:04:42,600
Speaker 3: uh and and UH talking to the players after the game,

1441
01:04:42,640 --> 01:04:44,520
Speaker 3: they were pretty happy with their protection. And the guy

1442
01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:48,000
Speaker 3: that was happiest was Joe Burrow. He said, laugh, I'm

1443
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:51,640
Speaker 3: telling you, man out the pass protection was outstanding them

1444
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:53,720
Speaker 3: and the the the way you want it done. The

1445
01:04:53,800 --> 01:04:56,760
Speaker 3: tackles kept the pocket wide, the guard and two guards

1446
01:04:56,800 --> 01:04:59,280
Speaker 3: in center kept the pocket depth. For me, he said,

1447
01:04:59,280 --> 01:05:01,720
Speaker 3: I was able to really there were times where he

1448
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:03,520
Speaker 3: was in the pocket, you know, pat in the football

1449
01:05:03,560 --> 01:05:05,480
Speaker 3: looking down the football field. And when you can do

1450
01:05:05,600 --> 01:05:08,880
Speaker 3: that in today's NFL, that's that's pretty good stuff. So

1451
01:05:09,680 --> 01:05:12,360
Speaker 3: I do think that the offensive line is getting better

1452
01:05:12,480 --> 01:05:15,280
Speaker 3: and better. And I do think Orlando Brown and Marius

1453
01:05:15,360 --> 01:05:18,880
Speaker 3: Mimms had a big game pass protecting at the tackle

1454
01:05:18,920 --> 01:05:22,720
Speaker 3: possession position, and it starts there. Ted Carrits did a

1455
01:05:22,760 --> 01:05:27,960
Speaker 3: great job of not only blocking but leading the football team,

1456
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,600
Speaker 3: making all the calls and Buffalo runs a lot of stuff,

1457
01:05:30,720 --> 01:05:32,720
Speaker 3: you know, they were they were changing things up a

1458
01:05:32,760 --> 01:05:35,080
Speaker 3: little bit, and he did a great job of sorting

1459
01:05:35,160 --> 01:05:39,200
Speaker 3: it out. And Bobby Babbage has some significant pressure packages

1460
01:05:39,240 --> 01:05:41,320
Speaker 3: that you know, take a little bit to make sure,

1461
01:05:41,560 --> 01:05:43,440
Speaker 3: you know, you get the right people blocked up and

1462
01:05:43,600 --> 01:05:44,600
Speaker 3: and Ted did a good job.

1463
01:05:44,840 --> 01:05:46,840
Speaker 2: David there there was a stretch in a time where

1464
01:05:46,840 --> 01:05:49,480
Speaker 2: they were asking it awful lot of two rookie guards

1465
01:05:49,520 --> 01:05:52,800
Speaker 2: with Fairchild and Rivers. Rivers hurt his ankle and Dalton

1466
01:05:52,840 --> 01:05:55,240
Speaker 2: Reisner was plucked back in it. And I think people

1467
01:05:55,320 --> 01:05:58,640
Speaker 2: forget Dalton was signed really late in camp and on

1468
01:05:58,800 --> 01:06:01,280
Speaker 2: the fly joined this and like on the fly, they

1469
01:06:01,360 --> 01:06:03,720
Speaker 2: plugged him in and I'm sure that was a struggle

1470
01:06:03,800 --> 01:06:05,440
Speaker 2: for him and he got dinged up a little bit.

1471
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:08,920
Speaker 2: Since he's been back in and filling in for Rivers,

1472
01:06:09,760 --> 01:06:11,880
Speaker 2: it seems like Dalton Reisner, is it fair to say

1473
01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:13,760
Speaker 2: he's been a piece that's helped settle things down.

1474
01:06:13,920 --> 01:06:16,360
Speaker 3: I think so Lance. And part of it is it's

1475
01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:17,920
Speaker 3: a real good call by you. Part of it is

1476
01:06:17,960 --> 01:06:19,880
Speaker 3: he's a veteran. You know, he's been around, he's been

1477
01:06:20,600 --> 01:06:24,000
Speaker 3: he's been to multiple wars, you know, talking talking to him,

1478
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 3: he has a very high football IQ. Ted Carriss has

1479
01:06:27,760 --> 01:06:31,160
Speaker 3: a very high football IQ. Fairchild is is you know,

1480
01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,400
Speaker 3: it's got a great football i Q. But he's a

1481
01:06:33,480 --> 01:06:36,080
Speaker 3: young buck you know, rookie try and still learning. But

1482
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:38,720
Speaker 3: he played, you know Georgia man, he played high level

1483
01:06:38,760 --> 01:06:44,280
Speaker 3: of football. He is not overmatch physically whatsoever. So I

1484
01:06:44,600 --> 01:06:46,600
Speaker 3: think I think the future is bright. I really do.

1485
01:06:46,800 --> 01:06:49,240
Speaker 3: I think that. Uh, you know, Marius Mims is a

1486
01:06:49,320 --> 01:06:52,680
Speaker 3: young buck man and he is a big, strong horse.

1487
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:56,840
Speaker 3: You know, Marius Mims, Dylan Fairchild. They've got some pieces.

1488
01:06:56,880 --> 01:06:59,479
Speaker 3: They got some young pieces that they're they're putting together

1489
01:06:59,520 --> 01:07:00,960
Speaker 3: and building that offensive line.

1490
01:07:01,520 --> 01:07:05,120
Speaker 2: All right, when we come back, could we spend a

1491
01:07:05,160 --> 01:07:09,440
Speaker 2: couple of minutes maybe on Jermaine Burton? Yes, O, good

1492
01:07:09,480 --> 01:07:11,800
Speaker 2: way to put it. That is ahead Bengals on on

1493
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:24,720
Speaker 2: the Bengals Radio network and seven hundred WLW. All right

1494
01:07:24,800 --> 01:07:28,000
Speaker 2: down the stretch we go Bengals Line and the Bengals

1495
01:07:28,160 --> 01:07:30,800
Speaker 2: Radio network in seven hundred WLW is we prepared to

1496
01:07:30,840 --> 01:07:33,440
Speaker 2: put our second hour in the books, Big third hour

1497
01:07:33,520 --> 01:07:35,680
Speaker 2: to follow. Here more from Zach, here, more from Joe,

1498
01:07:36,200 --> 01:07:39,080
Speaker 2: and we'll do our fantastic fun facts with Joe Flacco

1499
01:07:39,120 --> 01:07:40,640
Speaker 2: as well. By the way, and I just looked at

1500
01:07:40,640 --> 01:07:41,760
Speaker 2: it on of my notes and I meant to bring

1501
01:07:41,800 --> 01:07:43,959
Speaker 2: it up. You know, the one guy yesterday who didn't

1502
01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:46,240
Speaker 2: break a sweat and probably got bored was the Bills

1503
01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:49,800
Speaker 2: punter Mitch Wishnowski. Did not punt it all yesterday, not

1504
01:07:49,960 --> 01:07:53,080
Speaker 2: a single punt yesterday. The Bills have used three different

1505
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:56,080
Speaker 2: punters this year, including Brad Robbins of one time Bengal,

1506
01:07:56,160 --> 01:07:58,200
Speaker 2: but Mitch yesterday did not have to.

1507
01:07:58,440 --> 01:07:58,560
Speaker 4: Uh.

1508
01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,320
Speaker 2: I was probably forget about breaking his sweat. He was

1509
01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:03,880
Speaker 2: probably just freezing his tail off, just sitting there saying, guys,

1510
01:08:04,040 --> 01:08:06,040
Speaker 2: let me run around, put me on the field for

1511
01:08:06,120 --> 01:08:08,560
Speaker 2: at least a punt. But I guess he's okay, not punning.

1512
01:08:08,800 --> 01:08:10,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's okay, not punning for sure, And yeah, I

1513
01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,720
Speaker 3: just keep running the offense and he's the holder. So

1514
01:08:13,960 --> 01:08:16,120
Speaker 3: like a lot of punners, a lot of punters are holders.

1515
01:08:16,160 --> 01:08:18,920
Speaker 3: For their for their teammate, their place kicker. So he did.

1516
01:08:19,000 --> 01:08:22,799
Speaker 3: He did a phenomenal job holding and that's uh his contribution.

1517
01:08:22,920 --> 01:08:24,840
Speaker 3: When he called home, talked to his parents to go, yeah,

1518
01:08:25,400 --> 01:08:25,960
Speaker 3: did you see me?

1519
01:08:26,360 --> 01:08:27,320
Speaker 2: You see the see me?

1520
01:08:27,400 --> 01:08:29,920
Speaker 3: Hold that thing? I man, I caught it and spun

1521
01:08:30,040 --> 01:08:31,840
Speaker 3: that ball the laces and I spun him away from

1522
01:08:31,840 --> 01:08:32,160
Speaker 3: the kicker.

1523
01:08:32,200 --> 01:08:34,320
Speaker 2: I did a hell of a job his pro football

1524
01:08:34,360 --> 01:08:35,479
Speaker 2: focus great is great.

1525
01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:37,679
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's a perfect score.

1526
01:08:39,040 --> 01:08:41,320
Speaker 2: All right. Uh, well you can laugh about that, and no,

1527
01:08:42,120 --> 01:08:43,960
Speaker 2: my head's gonna hurt. And we're going to talk about

1528
01:08:44,000 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 2: Jermaine and Burton, who unfortunately was suspended yesterday, did not

1529
01:08:46,920 --> 01:08:50,360
Speaker 2: travel with the team, and Dave, a third round pick

1530
01:08:50,479 --> 01:08:53,320
Speaker 2: last year, the eightieth overall. Who I thought about this

1531
01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:55,920
Speaker 2: this morning. What an opportunity to think. You come out

1532
01:08:55,960 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 2: of college, you get drafted in the third round, you

1533
01:08:58,560 --> 01:09:01,360
Speaker 2: go to Cincinnati, you're you're you're giving Joe Burrow to

1534
01:09:01,479 --> 01:09:04,280
Speaker 2: work with and and Tea and Jamar to learn from,

1535
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:08,840
Speaker 2: and you talk about squandering opportunity after opportunity.

1536
01:09:09,560 --> 01:09:12,439
Speaker 3: Boy, when they drafted him, they thought, here's our third

1537
01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:16,439
Speaker 3: receiver and the three receiver package, and they were they

1538
01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:20,120
Speaker 3: were unbelievably excited about adding him to the mix, and

1539
01:09:20,560 --> 01:09:23,240
Speaker 3: good reason. I mean, he is a gifted athlete. This guy,

1540
01:09:23,400 --> 01:09:25,559
Speaker 3: his size, speed, ray show is as good as anybody

1541
01:09:25,640 --> 01:09:29,000
Speaker 3: in the National Football League. He's a physical marvel. You know,

1542
01:09:29,080 --> 01:09:30,439
Speaker 3: a lot of a lot of guys on the team,

1543
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,320
Speaker 3: a lot of defensive backs say that he's he's he's

1544
01:09:33,360 --> 01:09:35,240
Speaker 3: as good as anybody that got on the roster.

1545
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:35,280
Speaker 8: You know.

1546
01:09:36,520 --> 01:09:40,160
Speaker 3: But man, he's immature. Just can't get it figured out.

1547
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:43,840
Speaker 3: Just uh, he's late more than he's on time.

1548
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:44,240
Speaker 12: You know.

1549
01:09:44,720 --> 01:09:49,519
Speaker 3: It's I remember Paul Brown used to say, when you're

1550
01:09:49,960 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 3: showing me things like that, not taking notes and meetings,

1551
01:09:54,120 --> 01:09:57,519
Speaker 3: showing up late doing you are telling me the game's

1552
01:09:57,560 --> 01:09:59,880
Speaker 3: not important enough to you. And when the game's not

1553
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:01,920
Speaker 3: important enough to you, I don't have time for you.

1554
01:10:02,400 --> 01:10:09,160
Speaker 3: So it's sad to see him. Yes, just let a career,

1555
01:10:09,280 --> 01:10:12,880
Speaker 3: potential career that could be really good, just go away,

1556
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 3: you know, not materialize, never get started. And what could

1557
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:21,599
Speaker 3: have been, you know what could have been if there

1558
01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:24,200
Speaker 3: are so many guys in college football right now that

1559
01:10:24,320 --> 01:10:27,200
Speaker 3: if you said, hey, who what wide receiver out here

1560
01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:29,759
Speaker 3: wants to be the third guy to h to Jamar

1561
01:10:29,920 --> 01:10:31,720
Speaker 3: Chase and t Higgins with Joe Borrow throwing you in

1562
01:10:31,760 --> 01:10:34,720
Speaker 3: the football. Everybody had raised one hand, both hands, jump

1563
01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:36,679
Speaker 3: up and down or whatever. Me me, I'm I'm ready

1564
01:10:36,720 --> 01:10:40,920
Speaker 3: to pick on, pick me out and that that has

1565
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:43,400
Speaker 3: been presented to him, and he said no thanks.

1566
01:10:43,760 --> 01:10:46,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, And boy, when I think of him, I always

1567
01:10:46,680 --> 01:10:49,000
Speaker 2: go back to the draft day vision. They had the

1568
01:10:49,080 --> 01:10:50,920
Speaker 2: camera in the Bengals draft room at the time and

1569
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:53,519
Speaker 2: and Zach you know, slapped the table and was hugging

1570
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:56,320
Speaker 2: and there there was genuine exciting Yeah, that pick was

1571
01:10:56,400 --> 01:10:59,479
Speaker 2: made of We got him. We've got a talent that

1572
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:02,200
Speaker 2: we can put to use. And it just I mean,

1573
01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:06,320
Speaker 2: he's played fourteen games, he has four catches, he's been

1574
01:11:06,439 --> 01:11:12,280
Speaker 2: inactive all this season, and it's just man, and there's

1575
01:11:12,320 --> 01:11:14,240
Speaker 2: been there's been a lot going on in his life

1576
01:11:14,240 --> 01:11:17,360
Speaker 2: at various levels, for various things that I'm not privy to,

1577
01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:19,439
Speaker 2: and I don't want to spect you right right, It's

1578
01:11:19,520 --> 01:11:24,200
Speaker 2: just whatever it is. You one hope it gets fixed

1579
01:11:24,280 --> 01:11:28,160
Speaker 2: in two. You just wonder if the organization can continue

1580
01:11:28,200 --> 01:11:32,800
Speaker 2: to wait and and just deal with everything that is

1581
01:11:33,080 --> 01:11:34,240
Speaker 2: piling up on his plate.

1582
01:11:34,360 --> 01:11:37,400
Speaker 3: It's just, yeah, I mean, how many chances will he get?

1583
01:11:37,560 --> 01:11:37,720
Speaker 10: You know?

1584
01:11:37,840 --> 01:11:40,760
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like maybe some of the things you're

1585
01:11:40,800 --> 01:11:43,559
Speaker 3: talking about off the football field with his life, problems

1586
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:47,720
Speaker 3: with his family or friends, whatever the case may be. Okay, well,

1587
01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:50,760
Speaker 3: let's give him another chance. Let's see if it can

1588
01:11:50,840 --> 01:11:53,000
Speaker 3: work his way through this and work his way out

1589
01:11:53,040 --> 01:11:55,920
Speaker 3: of it and you know, focus on the game of

1590
01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:57,800
Speaker 3: football and do what he needs to do to be

1591
01:11:57,840 --> 01:12:00,880
Speaker 3: a productive football player for the Cincinnati Bank in the

1592
01:12:00,960 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 3: National Football League. But man, how many times? How many

1593
01:12:04,400 --> 01:12:07,880
Speaker 3: chances can you afford to give a guy? And it's

1594
01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:10,320
Speaker 3: a sad state of affairs, it really is. It's a

1595
01:12:10,360 --> 01:12:11,200

1617
01:13:11,560 --> 01:13:16,040
Speaker 8: obviously he's a great player and makes plays in all

1618
01:13:16,120 --> 01:13:19,720
Speaker 8: kinds of situations. And you know, I think the last

1619
01:13:19,760 --> 01:13:22,880
Speaker 8: play was the epitome of who he is as a player.

1620
01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:24,280
Speaker 2: Uh.

1621
01:13:25,120 --> 01:13:28,760
Speaker 8: You gotta account for for everything with him, and he

1622
01:13:28,800 --> 01:13:29,639
Speaker 8: did a great job today.

Speaker 7: you hope to see over the next four game to

1626
01:13:35,520 --> 01:13:38,960

1627
01:13:39,560 --> 01:13:39,880

1630
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:47,840
Speaker 8: all the big picture stuff when it's all set and down.

1631
01:13:47,880 --> 01:13:48,160
Speaker 12: This year.

1632
01:13:48,560 --> 01:13:49,519

Speaker 7: How do you indulem utily you being in so many

1636
01:13:56,640 --> 01:13:58,280
Speaker 7: of He's where thirty.

1637
01:13:58,240 --> 01:14:02,479
Speaker 8: Four isn't enough. Yeah, I mean, you know that might've

1638
01:14:04,560 --> 01:14:09,720
Speaker 8: I think I've matured this year and gain some perspective

1639
01:14:09,800 --> 01:14:13,000
Speaker 8: on on and everything when I was out and I'm

1640
01:14:13,040 --> 01:14:15,040
Speaker 8: just grateful to to be out there and be able

1641
01:14:15,120 --> 01:14:18,040
Speaker 8: to be a quarterback in the NFL and be one

1642
01:14:18,080 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 8: of the best. You know, I'm I don't take that

1643
01:14:20,640 --> 01:14:24,200
Speaker 8: for granted, and I work really hard to, like I said,

1644
01:14:24,240 --> 01:14:26,599
Speaker 8: put myself in a position to to do that. It's

1645
01:14:26,600 --> 01:14:29,040
Speaker 8: just like everybody else in there. So that's what I'm

1646
01:14:29,040 --> 01:14:31,280
Speaker 8: gonna do. I'm I'm a I'm a player, and I'm

1647
01:14:31,320 --> 01:14:33,720
Speaker 8: gonna go and try to play as good as I

1648
01:14:33,840 --> 01:14:36,800
Speaker 8: can and see where we're at. See where we're at.

1649
01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:39,479
Speaker 10: The first touchdowns are tea that that's which.

1650
01:14:40,240 --> 01:14:42,000
Speaker 2: That Eve gonna make you catch.

1651
01:14:42,280 --> 01:14:44,000
Speaker 8: No, I've seen him make that catch a million times.

1652
01:14:44,760 --> 01:14:44,880
Speaker 10: Uh.

1653
01:14:46,400 --> 01:14:47,720
Speaker 8: You know that's one where you just put some air

1654
01:14:47,800 --> 01:14:50,000
Speaker 8: on and let Tea go and make a play, and

1655
01:14:50,080 --> 01:14:51,320
Speaker 8: that's a that's what he does.

1656
01:14:51,439 --> 01:14:52,479
Speaker 7: What did he say about Tea.

1657
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:54,160
Speaker 22: That you know, you you really bought to you every

1658
01:14:54,160 --> 01:14:56,200
Speaker 22: you can go to stay in the game, really use

1659
01:14:56,200 --> 01:14:57,080
Speaker 22: a ad of it that you wanted.

1660
01:14:57,120 --> 01:15:05,160
Speaker 8: What was Yeah too, he's a tough guy. I think

1661
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 8: he's gotten tougher over the years. You know, back in

1662
01:15:08,240 --> 01:15:11,080
Speaker 8: the day, he would get hit and I'd hold my

1663
01:15:11,120 --> 01:15:12,680
Speaker 8: breath cause he would lay there for a second and

1664
01:15:12,760 --> 01:15:14,800
Speaker 8: then he'd pop back up. I think everybody remembers that.

1665
01:15:15,800 --> 01:15:18,360
Speaker 8: Now this pop up game is pretty good, and so

1666
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,760
Speaker 8: that's good to see. Doesn't doesn't scare me quite as much.

1667
01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,719
Speaker 8: But he's as tough as they come, and he's gonna

1668
01:15:25,720 --> 01:15:27,799
Speaker 8: continue to make big time plays in big time spots.

1669
01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:31,240
Speaker 8: That's that's who he is, or or stuff like that.

1670
01:15:32,680 --> 01:15:35,040
Speaker 7: That kind of your mentality about then, what's that say

1671
01:15:35,080 --> 01:15:35,200
Speaker 7: to you?

1672
01:15:35,960 --> 01:15:38,160
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, it gives me a lot of confidence throwing

1673
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:40,800
Speaker 8: them the ball in a lot of different situations. You know,

1674
01:15:40,920 --> 01:15:43,000
Speaker 8: there's I'm gonna protect him with the ball as good

1675
01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:45,320
Speaker 8: as much as I can, you know, over the middle

1676
01:15:45,360 --> 01:15:48,720
Speaker 8: and in vulnerable positions. But you know, sometimes in big

1677
01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:50,599
Speaker 8: spots you're gonna have to fit a ball in there

1678
01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,559
Speaker 8: where you know receiver's gonna know that he's gonna get hit.

1679
01:15:54,360 --> 01:15:56,360
Speaker 8: And when you have guys like Tea and the n A,

1680
01:15:56,680 --> 01:15:59,360
Speaker 8: all of our guys, really it gives you a lot

1681
01:15:59,360 --> 01:16:01,320
Speaker 8: of confidence to uh try to fit it fit that

1682
01:16:01,439 --> 01:16:04,160
Speaker 8: ball in those windows because they can handle it.

1683
01:16:04,320 --> 01:16:07,040
Speaker 14: You talked about the perspective from being out and and

1684
01:16:07,200 --> 01:16:10,240
Speaker 14: maybe how that's helped shape how you view this season.

1685
01:16:10,720 --> 01:16:12,560
Speaker 7: Is it a hard balance between you, I believe on

1686
01:16:12,600 --> 01:16:14,160
Speaker 7: the things two menus that you get paid a lot

1687
01:16:14,200 --> 01:16:14,479
Speaker 7: of money.

1688
01:16:14,560 --> 01:16:16,599
Speaker 6: Plate it's getting you're out there playing in the snow

1689
01:16:16,800 --> 01:16:19,160
Speaker 6: a game against you know from.

1690
01:16:19,080 --> 01:16:21,880
Speaker 7: The top quarterbacks, you're having fun. You don't come out

1691
01:16:21,920 --> 01:16:22,200
Speaker 7: to win.

1692
01:16:22,760 --> 01:16:25,840
Speaker 6: To enjoy that moment while also knowing you're out where

1693
01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:27,720
Speaker 6: you want to be. Is that a hard balance to

1694
01:16:28,080 --> 01:16:30,200
Speaker 6: make sure that you, you know, remember these moments, but

1695
01:16:30,400 --> 01:16:32,519
Speaker 6: it doesn't a shadow where you feel about what you

1696
01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:34,599
Speaker 6: guys have made you so that you're playing in the playoffs.

1697
01:16:34,960 --> 01:16:37,560
Speaker 8: Yeah, it, you know it had That's that's been a

1698
01:16:37,560 --> 01:16:40,439
Speaker 8: struggle for the last couple of years. But I've grown

1699
01:16:40,479 --> 01:16:46,160
Speaker 8: and and matured and understood the position that you know,

1700
01:16:46,240 --> 01:16:51,400
Speaker 8: we find ourselves in and certainly the last ten weeks

1701
01:16:53,120 --> 01:16:54,559
Speaker 8: UH has has shown me a lot.

1702
01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:55,200
Speaker 4: Uh.

1703
01:16:56,720 --> 01:16:58,200
Speaker 8: Like I said, I'm just happy to be out there.

1704
01:17:01,479 --> 01:17:05,360
Speaker 8: You know, we we want to win games and be

1705
01:17:05,400 --> 01:17:09,720
Speaker 8: in the playoffs and and do everything that you know,

1706
01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:13,280
Speaker 8: we say that we're capable of doing. But you know,

1707
01:17:13,320 --> 01:17:14,439
Speaker 8: when I came back, I knew it was gonna be

1708
01:17:14,439 --> 01:17:17,920
Speaker 8: an uphill battle. We were we were three and eight

1709
01:17:17,920 --> 01:17:22,479
Speaker 8: at that point. That's certainly not a playoff caliber position

1710
01:17:22,760 --> 01:17:28,400
Speaker 8: to be in. And you know, really we're we're still

1711
01:17:28,439 --> 01:17:30,280
Speaker 8: not out of it. We're gonna be We're gonna be

1712
01:17:30,320 --> 01:17:33,479
Speaker 8: three games back. I don't know who who won between

1713
01:17:33,520 --> 01:17:38,519
Speaker 8: the Ravens and the Steelers. Somebody have some information for

1714
01:17:38,640 --> 01:17:42,479
Speaker 8: me who did Steelers one. I think that makes it

1715
01:17:42,520 --> 01:17:45,759
Speaker 8: a little tougher that that probably lowers our our chances

1716
01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:48,519
Speaker 8: even more. But you know, that's how the cookie crumbles.

1717
01:17:48,600 --> 01:17:50,040
Speaker 8: I knew, like I said, I knew it was gonna

1718
01:17:50,040 --> 01:17:51,920
Speaker 8: be an uphill battle for us when when I was

1719
01:17:51,960 --> 01:17:55,559
Speaker 8: coming back, And that's not you know, that wasn't really

1720
01:17:55,640 --> 01:17:59,599
Speaker 8: in my thought process too much. And I just want

1721
01:17:59,640 --> 01:18:03,360
Speaker 8: to come back and put on a show and play

1722
01:18:03,400 --> 01:18:04,560
Speaker 8: well in front of everybody.

1723
01:18:04,840 --> 01:18:07,800
Speaker 7: The city Sydney guys touchdown to him and.

1724
01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:10,719
Speaker 10: Had came over out of practice.

1725
01:18:14,200 --> 01:18:18,559
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was Yeah, that was a fun one.

1726
01:18:18,680 --> 01:18:18,800
Speaker 2: Uh.

1727
01:18:19,920 --> 01:18:22,160
Speaker 8: You know, we saw a look in practice and you know,

1728
01:18:22,280 --> 01:18:25,800
Speaker 8: talked about it after and it was just like, Mike,

1729
01:18:25,840 --> 01:18:27,519
Speaker 8: if you get that log, go ahead and do that.

1730
01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:31,160
Speaker 8: That's what he did and this is exactly how it

1731
01:18:31,280 --> 01:18:35,160
Speaker 8: played out in practice, you know, slightly different, but very similar,

1732
01:18:35,200 --> 01:18:37,400
Speaker 8: and so would be able to execute that. It was,

1733
01:18:37,960 --> 01:18:38,439
Speaker 8: that's fine.

1734
01:18:39,280 --> 01:18:41,519
Speaker 2: Joe Burrow after the game and Dave we were talking

1735
01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:44,519
Speaker 2: in the first segment about what's ahead and and commitment

1736
01:18:44,560 --> 01:18:47,080
Speaker 2: to it. And Joe was asked yesterday about, you know,

1737
01:18:47,200 --> 01:18:51,200
Speaker 2: four games left, playoff odds that have diminished a little bit.

1738
01:18:51,320 --> 01:18:54,360
Speaker 2: But Joe said, look, I I worked my butt off

1739
01:18:54,439 --> 01:18:57,840
Speaker 2: to come back. Some would say, now, okay, we saw

1740
01:18:57,960 --> 01:19:00,439
Speaker 2: you your healthy, let's not risk anything in the four

1741
01:19:00,760 --> 01:19:03,160
Speaker 2: Joseph the mindset, I didn't work my tail off to

1742
01:19:03,240 --> 01:19:05,479
Speaker 2: get back here, so I can sit the final four games.

1743
01:19:05,520 --> 01:19:08,000
Speaker 2: Whether we've got one percent chance of making the playoffs

1744
01:19:08,080 --> 01:19:10,679
Speaker 2: or ninety seven, I'm playing football. That's Joe Burrow.

1745
01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:13,439
Speaker 3: Love the man, Yes, I mean love everything about him.

1746
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:16,320
Speaker 3: And his teammates do too. I mean, you know they're

1747
01:19:16,360 --> 01:19:18,400
Speaker 3: gonna go to battle, and they're gonna go go to

1748
01:19:18,479 --> 01:19:20,280
Speaker 3: battle with Joe Burrow, and Joe Burrow is gonna go

1749
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:22,240
Speaker 3: to battle with them and they are gonna fight their

1750
01:19:22,320 --> 01:19:25,519
Speaker 3: tails off. So you know, make no mistake about it,

1751
01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:28,639
Speaker 3: Joe Burrows is here to play football. He gets paid

1752
01:19:28,680 --> 01:19:32,120
Speaker 3: handsomely to play football, and even if he didn't, he's

1753
01:19:32,200 --> 01:19:35,840
Speaker 3: just one of those guys that loves the games. He's

1754
01:19:36,040 --> 01:19:41,280
Speaker 3: all about football. It's it. It's part of his life.

1755
01:19:41,360 --> 01:19:42,920
Speaker 3: I mean, it's a big part of his life. He

1756
01:19:43,080 --> 01:19:48,080
Speaker 3: just everything he does is geared toward becoming more proficient

1757
01:19:48,200 --> 01:19:49,040
Speaker 3: and better at the game.

1758
01:19:49,400 --> 01:19:49,640
Speaker 4: It is.

1759
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:52,439
Speaker 2: It's hard to believe, and it's part of the you know,

1760
01:19:52,640 --> 01:19:56,800
Speaker 2: Joe famously said the window is his career and Dave

1761
01:19:56,840 --> 01:19:59,600
Speaker 2: were looking at sadly and frustratingly, this could be the

1762
01:19:59,680 --> 01:20:03,360
Speaker 2: third straight year. With a lot of circumstances unfolding and injuries,

1763
01:20:03,479 --> 01:20:05,880
Speaker 2: it's gonna be the third straight year Joe Burrow is

1764
01:20:06,000 --> 01:20:09,000
Speaker 2: not going to be in the playoffs. And that's tough

1765
01:20:09,080 --> 01:20:12,400
Speaker 2: to digest when you start thinking Joe's age in twenty nineties,

1766
01:20:12,439 --> 01:20:15,719
Speaker 2: not old, but man, three years in a window without

1767
01:20:15,760 --> 01:20:16,920
Speaker 2: the playoffs.

1768
01:20:17,680 --> 01:20:21,160
Speaker 3: And really around the league I mean there's a bunch

1769
01:20:21,200 --> 01:20:24,040
Speaker 3: of head coaches and offensive coordinators and quarterback coaches saying

1770
01:20:24,560 --> 01:20:25,160
Speaker 3: I'll take them.

1771
01:20:25,280 --> 01:20:25,640
Speaker 2: Yep, you know.

1772
01:20:26,120 --> 01:20:28,040
Speaker 3: I'll raise my hand, I raise both my hands. I'll

1773
01:20:28,120 --> 01:20:30,400
Speaker 3: jump up and down. Are you kidding me? A talent

1774
01:20:30,520 --> 01:20:34,760
Speaker 3: like Joe Burrow? We cannot find the right quarterback. That's

1775
01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:37,479
Speaker 3: the only component we have missing. We've got a bunch

1776
01:20:37,520 --> 01:20:40,160
Speaker 3: of ingredients. But man, you gotta have that one man.

1777
01:20:40,200 --> 01:20:43,320
Speaker 3: You gotta have the foundational guy. And Joe Burrow's a

1778
01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:45,519
Speaker 3: foundational guy. He's one of the best guys to ever

1779
01:20:45,960 --> 01:20:46,200
Speaker 3: do it.

1780
01:20:46,320 --> 01:20:49,679
Speaker 2: We'll take them, no doubt. Still ahead on the quarterback theme,

1781
01:20:49,960 --> 01:20:53,160
Speaker 2: how about fantastic fun facts with Joe Flacco. You're gonna

1782
01:20:53,240 --> 01:20:55,360

Speaker 1: Fantastic Fun Facts with Dan Ord.

1797
01:22:01,800 --> 01:22:04,639
Speaker 18: Time for some fun facts with Joe Flacco from Audubon,

1798
01:22:04,960 --> 01:22:08,560
Speaker 18: New Jersey, which is basically a suburb of Philly. Just

1799
01:22:08,680 --> 01:22:11,880
Speaker 18: cross the Delaware River and you're there. You're from a

1800
01:22:11,920 --> 01:22:14,960
Speaker 18: big family. How big? And what did your folks do

1801
01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 18: for a living?

1802
01:22:16,240 --> 01:22:20,479
Speaker 16: I'm the oldest of six, got four brothers and a sister.

1803
01:22:21,080 --> 01:22:25,920
Speaker 16: My mom stayed at home and was, you know, responsible

1804
01:22:25,960 --> 01:22:29,759
Speaker 16: for raising us and the people we are and basically

1805
01:22:30,040 --> 01:22:33,280
Speaker 16: running the entire family. And then my dad had his

1806
01:22:33,360 --> 01:22:34,920
Speaker 16: own mortgage business with a couple guys.

1807
01:22:35,960 --> 01:22:37,920
Speaker 18: I'm one of five, so I can identify with what

1808
01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:41,000
Speaker 18: your mom did for the family. You're six six. Where

1809
01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:41,760
Speaker 18: did you get your height?

1810
01:22:42,240 --> 01:22:46,000
Speaker 16: I'm not sure. We joke around, you know, old fashioned

1811
01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:46,920
Speaker 16: the milkman.

1812
01:22:48,240 --> 01:22:48,360
Speaker 3: You know.

1813
01:22:48,520 --> 01:22:51,519
Speaker 16: My mom's like, you know, like five six. Maybe she's

1814
01:22:51,560 --> 01:22:55,840
Speaker 16: five seven. My dad's maybe five eleven, So not quite

1815
01:22:55,880 --> 01:22:56,800
Speaker 16: sure where it comes from.

1816
01:22:58,080 --> 01:23:00,639
Speaker 18: Did you have to work hard at being at sports

1817
01:23:00,840 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 18: or did it pretty much come naturally.

1818
01:23:03,320 --> 01:23:04,960
Speaker 16: I think you always had. I think when you have

1819
01:23:05,080 --> 01:23:07,840
Speaker 16: an interest in sports from an early age, you just

1820
01:23:08,000 --> 01:23:10,439
Speaker 16: naturally work hard at it. It's just what you like

1821
01:23:10,520 --> 01:23:13,280
Speaker 16: to do. So it's tough to say. I feel like

1822
01:23:13,320 --> 01:23:15,680
Speaker 16: I've always been good at it. I feel like it

1823
01:23:15,880 --> 01:23:19,040
Speaker 16: came naturally. But at the same time, I've always been

1824
01:23:19,080 --> 01:23:20,960
Speaker 16: interested in it, so it was something that I was

1825
01:23:21,000 --> 01:23:24,880
Speaker 16: always doing, always developing. So yeah, it's tough to probably say.

1826
01:23:25,080 --> 01:23:28,760
Speaker 18: Honestly, you started your college football career at Pitt. You

1827
01:23:28,880 --> 01:23:30,960
Speaker 18: red shirted your first year, and then you were a

1828
01:23:31,000 --> 01:23:34,400
Speaker 18: backup your second year. Is that what you expected or

1829
01:23:34,560 --> 01:23:37,280
Speaker 18: were you disappointed that you didn't get a faster opportunity.

1830
01:23:37,880 --> 01:23:41,240
Speaker 16: I don't know exactly what I expected. I probably expected

1831
01:23:41,320 --> 01:23:43,800
Speaker 16: to go in and start as as quickly as I can.

1832
01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:46,400
Speaker 16: At some point I was hoping to get an opportunity.

1833
01:23:46,520 --> 01:23:51,439
Speaker 16: I think I was not okay, but okay with my

1834
01:23:51,560 --> 01:23:54,080
Speaker 16: second year being where I was, But by that third year,

1835
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:56,920
Speaker 16: I really wanted I really wanted to be playing football.

1836
01:23:57,320 --> 01:23:59,040
Speaker 16: And it wasn't looking like that was going to happen,

1837
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:01,160
Speaker 16: and that's kind of what led to go to go

1838
01:24:01,240 --> 01:24:01,759
Speaker 16: to Delaware.

1839
01:24:02,160 --> 01:24:03,360
Speaker 18: Why did you choose Delaware?

1840
01:24:03,960 --> 01:24:05,800
Speaker 16: Well, really, I mean there was no portal back in

1841
01:24:05,840 --> 01:24:09,200
Speaker 16: the day, and I got recruited, but like, I wasn't

1842
01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:11,320
Speaker 16: like a huge recruit, so it was tough to really

1843
01:24:11,400 --> 01:24:14,120
Speaker 16: find out if anybody wanted me. And you know what,

1844
01:24:14,360 --> 01:24:17,160
Speaker 16: my it wasn't like I really had very many options

1845
01:24:17,280 --> 01:24:19,160
Speaker 16: or a decision to make. But Delaware was a team

1846
01:24:19,200 --> 01:24:20,760
Speaker 16: that recruited me a little bit out of high school

1847
01:24:20,760 --> 01:24:22,960
Speaker 16: as a smaller school that probably understood that I wasn't

1848
01:24:23,160 --> 01:24:26,400
Speaker 16: going to go there. But Casey Keeler was known for

1849
01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:29,280
Speaker 16: kind of getting some transfers and my high school coach

1850
01:24:29,360 --> 01:24:32,360
Speaker 16: my senior year played for him. Played for Casey at

1851
01:24:32,479 --> 01:24:34,400
Speaker 16: Rowan I don't know if it was rowing then or

1852
01:24:34,439 --> 01:24:37,679
Speaker 16: Glassboro State in South Jersey, so there was a little

1853
01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:39,040
Speaker 16: bit of a connection there and I kind of found

1854
01:24:39,040 --> 01:24:41,000
Speaker 16: out that they were interested in having me and ended

1855
01:24:41,120 --> 01:24:44,360
Speaker 16: up like late summer, you know, deciding to go there

1856
01:24:44,640 --> 01:24:46,439
Speaker 16: really because at that point it was the only option,

1857
01:24:47,920 --> 01:24:50,360
Speaker 16: you know, but they did have a rich tradition in football,

1858
01:24:50,479 --> 01:24:53,280
Speaker 16: and you know, the state of Delaware cares a lot

1859
01:24:53,320 --> 01:24:55,080
Speaker 16: about the Blue Hens, so it was a cool place

1860
01:24:55,160 --> 01:24:55,280
Speaker 16: to go.

1861
01:24:55,920 --> 01:24:57,880
Speaker 18: You wound up being the eighteenth pick in the draft

1862
01:24:58,000 --> 01:25:01,920
Speaker 18: by Baltimore, the second quarterback selected your year. What was

1863
01:25:01,960 --> 01:25:03,880
Speaker 18: it like to get that phone call from Ozzie Newsom?

1864
01:25:05,000 --> 01:25:07,240
Speaker 16: Getting that call was surreal. I mean, sitting there with

1865
01:25:07,280 --> 01:25:12,719
Speaker 16: your family and something that you've kind of envisioned since

1866
01:25:12,760 --> 01:25:15,240
Speaker 16: you can remember, and probably wasn't as really as I

1867
01:25:15,560 --> 01:25:17,719
Speaker 16: think it was. But from the time I can remember,

1868
01:25:18,680 --> 01:25:20,760
Speaker 16: you know, I wanted to be a professional athlete. You know,

1869
01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:24,240
Speaker 16: probably started with baseball and went to football and baseball

1870
01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:27,840
Speaker 16: and ended up at football. So to get that call

1871
01:25:28,080 --> 01:25:32,720
Speaker 16: is obviously very special. It's something you can probably take

1872
01:25:32,760 --> 01:25:36,800
Speaker 16: for granted at certain times just because it seemed like,

1873
01:25:37,960 --> 01:25:40,200
Speaker 16: I don't know, it's at different times you kind of

1874
01:25:40,400 --> 01:25:42,280
Speaker 16: feel like it's going to happen at some point, But

1875
01:25:43,240 --> 01:25:48,120
Speaker 16: looking back, it's one of those things that it's always

1876
01:25:48,160 --> 01:25:49,840
Speaker 16: going to be really special because it's something that you

1877
01:25:50,320 --> 01:25:52,120
Speaker 16: envisioned doing from the time you were seven or eight

1878
01:25:52,200 --> 01:25:52,559
Speaker 16: years old.

1879
01:25:53,600 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 18: We're visiting the Joe Flacco. You took the Ravens to

1880
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:58,200
Speaker 18: the playoffs each of your first four years. You want

1881
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,920
Speaker 18: a playoff game every year, and then in year five

1882
01:26:01,080 --> 01:26:04,160
Speaker 18: he led Baltimore to the super Bowl title. There are

1883
01:26:04,320 --> 01:26:07,600
Speaker 18: thirty five quarterbacks who have led their team to a

1884
01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,799
Speaker 18: super Bowl title. When I express it in those terms,

1885
01:26:11,720 --> 01:26:12,760
Speaker 18: what does that say to you?

1886
01:26:13,720 --> 01:26:15,519
Speaker 16: You know, it's one of those times where you don't

1887
01:26:15,560 --> 01:26:17,559
Speaker 16: as a player. I don't think you do sit back

1888
01:26:17,600 --> 01:26:20,000
Speaker 16: and reflect enough on how special it is to get

1889
01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 16: to do what we do. I don't think you you know,

1890
01:26:24,240 --> 01:26:27,280
Speaker 16: I don't, and I'm not somebody that does it either.

1891
01:26:27,479 --> 01:26:29,280
Speaker 16: I don't think we sit back and look at what

1892
01:26:29,360 --> 01:26:31,320
Speaker 16: we just did or what we've done over the last

1893
01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:35,280
Speaker 16: five years. And the older I get, I think it's

1894
01:26:35,360 --> 01:26:37,880
Speaker 16: kind of important to do that, because when you don't

1895
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:41,200
Speaker 16: do that, no matter what you do for a living,

1896
01:26:41,439 --> 01:26:45,759
Speaker 16: it can turn into a job to you know at times,

1897
01:26:46,439 --> 01:26:49,360
Speaker 16: and I think when you hit me with stuff like that,

1898
01:26:49,640 --> 01:26:51,679
Speaker 16: and when you're able to sit around some family members

1899
01:26:51,720 --> 01:26:54,400
Speaker 16: and friends and tell stories and kind of have those

1900
01:26:54,439 --> 01:26:56,840
Speaker 16: little moments where you do remind yourself of how lucky

1901
01:26:56,880 --> 01:27:00,679
Speaker 16: you are, it puts things back in perspective and allows

1902
01:27:00,760 --> 01:27:02,960
Speaker 16: you to enjoy it a lot more. I think when

1903
01:27:03,000 --> 01:27:06,080
Speaker 16: you don't do those things, which I don't naturally like

1904
01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:09,160
Speaker 16: think about those things unless I am telling stories, which

1905
01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:09,600
Speaker 16: I like to do.

1906
01:27:11,200 --> 01:27:11,240
Speaker 10: It.

1907
01:27:11,479 --> 01:27:14,000
Speaker 16: It's pretty damn cool. I mean, you have to go

1908
01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:16,519
Speaker 16: back and put yourself in the shoes of when you

1909
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:19,040
Speaker 16: were a young kid slash teenager and you were hoping

1910
01:27:19,080 --> 01:27:22,400
Speaker 16: to be in this position one day. And you know,

1911
01:27:22,479 --> 01:27:24,720
Speaker 16: when you hear things like that from other people, you

1912
01:27:24,840 --> 01:27:27,400
Speaker 16: do turn back into that kid, and you can put

1913
01:27:27,439 --> 01:27:30,560
Speaker 16: it in that kind of view and that perspective and

1914
01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:31,519
Speaker 16: really enjoy it.

1915
01:27:32,439 --> 01:27:35,720
Speaker 18: After eleven years in Baltimore, you've bounced around since, with

1916
01:27:35,880 --> 01:27:38,680
Speaker 18: six teams over the last seven years. I suppose on

1917
01:27:38,760 --> 01:27:41,120
Speaker 18: one hand, it's nice to be a guy that plays

1918
01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:43,679
Speaker 18: for one team his entire career. On the other hand,

1919
01:27:43,760 --> 01:27:47,280
Speaker 18: you've made so many friends and seeing how different teams

1920
01:27:47,360 --> 01:27:50,120
Speaker 18: do it. Has that been enjoyable in a certain way

1921
01:27:50,400 --> 01:27:50,760
Speaker 18: for sure?

1922
01:27:51,120 --> 01:27:53,040
Speaker 16: Yeah, it's a good way to put it, you know.

1923
01:27:53,320 --> 01:27:55,400
Speaker 16: I think ultimately it would have been great to play

1924
01:27:55,439 --> 01:27:58,720
Speaker 16: twenty years in one spot, you know, and call it

1925
01:27:58,800 --> 01:28:02,840
Speaker 16: a day. But that's not my life. This is my life,

1926
01:28:03,000 --> 01:28:04,680
Speaker 16: and you got to look at the positives in it.

1927
01:28:04,840 --> 01:28:06,760
Speaker 16: And I do think there are a lot of positives

1928
01:28:06,800 --> 01:28:09,880
Speaker 16: in going from team to team and meeting different coaches

1929
01:28:09,920 --> 01:28:12,479
Speaker 16: and seeing how different coaches do it, and meeting different players,

1930
01:28:12,560 --> 01:28:17,040
Speaker 16: and seeing different locker rooms, and just enjoying different cities,

1931
01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:20,880
Speaker 16: you know, getting to see different parts of the country

1932
01:28:20,960 --> 01:28:23,120
Speaker 16: and actually live there for a little bit of time.

1933
01:28:25,120 --> 01:28:29,760
Speaker 16: I think because I have played a good amount and

1934
01:28:30,320 --> 01:28:33,200
Speaker 16: am a little bit older now I can enjoy those things.

1935
01:28:33,400 --> 01:28:35,680
Speaker 16: I think if you were to tell me that, if

1936
01:28:35,720 --> 01:28:36,760
Speaker 16: you were to tell me there was going to be

1937
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:38,840
Speaker 16: positives in that when I was twenty three, I probably

1938
01:28:38,840 --> 01:28:40,840
Speaker 16: wouldn't have believed you and wouldn't have wanted to do that.

1939
01:28:41,080 --> 01:28:44,160
Speaker 16: But there have been positives. Yeah, Listen, I wish the

1940
01:28:44,240 --> 01:28:46,479
Speaker 16: last seven years, you know, with all those positives, I

1941
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:48,559
Speaker 16: do wish the last seven years were probably a little

1942
01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:52,439
Speaker 16: bit different than that. But definitely a lot of cool

1943
01:28:52,479 --> 01:28:54,120
Speaker 16: things about doing what I've gotten to do in the

1944
01:28:54,200 --> 01:28:54,840
Speaker 16: last few years.

1945
01:28:55,479 --> 01:28:58,479
Speaker 18: You've got five kids. They were too young or not

1946
01:28:58,680 --> 01:29:01,840
Speaker 18: born when you won the Super so earlier this year,

1947
01:29:02,000 --> 01:29:04,360
Speaker 18: when you beat the Steelers on Thursday night, when you

1948
01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:07,639
Speaker 18: threw for four seventy against the Bears. Now your kids

1949
01:29:07,680 --> 01:29:10,000
Speaker 18: are old enough to watch it and appreciate it. Is

1950
01:29:10,120 --> 01:29:12,720
Speaker 18: that the best part about still playing at forty.

1951
01:29:13,080 --> 01:29:15,800
Speaker 16: It's definitely a cool part of it, it really is.

1952
01:29:16,479 --> 01:29:18,320
Speaker 16: And they just want more. You know, you do one game,

1953
01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:19,400
Speaker 16: they want more, they want more.

1954
01:29:19,520 --> 01:29:19,680
Speaker 12: You know.

1955
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:25,320
Speaker 16: It's very I think a couple of years ago. I

1956
01:29:25,400 --> 01:29:27,680
Speaker 16: think in twenty three when I got signed and went

1957
01:29:27,720 --> 01:29:30,200
Speaker 16: to Cleveland and that was like the first real time

1958
01:29:30,280 --> 01:29:34,840
Speaker 16: that they actually cared, you know, in twenty nineteen. Yeah,

1959
01:29:35,080 --> 01:29:37,040
Speaker 16: like by the time I left Baltimore, like they had

1960
01:29:37,080 --> 01:29:39,000
Speaker 16: they were, you know, six years old. I think I

1961
01:29:39,120 --> 01:29:42,320
Speaker 16: was at six or something like that. Like you'd think

1962
01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:43,800
Speaker 16: they'd be old enough to kind of get it a

1963
01:29:43,840 --> 01:29:46,599
Speaker 16: little bit, but they don't, not until they're nine, ten, eleven,

1964
01:29:46,680 --> 01:29:50,519
Speaker 16: you know. And twenty three was the first time where

1965
01:29:50,680 --> 01:29:53,639
Speaker 16: like even though I signed late, like when I signed there,

1966
01:29:53,760 --> 01:29:55,720
Speaker 16: I was the guy and I got to go win

1967
01:29:56,080 --> 01:29:58,240
Speaker 16: and play some good games. That was the first real

1968
01:29:58,360 --> 01:30:01,040
Speaker 16: time that they understand of what was going on and

1969
01:30:01,200 --> 01:30:05,160
Speaker 16: got to be a part of it. And that's I

1970
01:30:05,240 --> 01:30:08,439
Speaker 16: think that was the cool part. Is you always enjoy

1971
01:30:09,560 --> 01:30:12,960
Speaker 16: sharing these things and with and having the people that

1972
01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:16,800
Speaker 16: you really love and care about be a part of

1973
01:30:16,880 --> 01:30:21,200
Speaker 16: it with you. And when it's your kids, that's just

1974
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:24,760
Speaker 16: a whole other level of like love and care that

1975
01:30:24,840 --> 01:30:30,760
Speaker 16: you have for somebody, And it definitely did make it

1976
01:30:30,960 --> 01:30:32,800
Speaker 16: pretty special. I think it was special for them, but

1977
01:30:33,120 --> 01:30:35,680
Speaker 16: you know, like whatever, they're kids, they're gonna you know,

1978
01:30:35,800 --> 01:30:37,760
Speaker 16: it was definitely special for me because I think, just

1979
01:30:38,000 --> 01:30:40,040
Speaker 16: like I said, the more people that you care about

1980
01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:41,880
Speaker 16: that you get to bring in on this thing and

1981
01:30:42,080 --> 01:30:44,840
Speaker 16: enjoy it with, it just makes it that much sweeter.

1982
01:30:44,840 --> 01:30:46,679
Speaker 16: If it was just me hanging out there, and yeah,

1983
01:30:46,720 --> 01:30:48,519
Speaker 16: it would have been fun with my teammates and all that,

1984
01:30:48,680 --> 01:30:50,120
Speaker 16: but then you go home to an empty house and

1985
01:30:50,160 --> 01:30:54,200
Speaker 16: you kind of Okay, it's over. When you have people

1986
01:30:54,320 --> 01:30:56,760
Speaker 16: to enjoy it with, that mean a lot to you.

1987
01:30:57,000 --> 01:30:59,439
Speaker 16: It definitely means something else. So that was my first

1988
01:30:59,479 --> 01:31:01,960
Speaker 16: taste of it, and and yeah, it was pretty cool.

1989
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:06,040
Speaker 18: He went viral several weeks ago for discussing the joys

1990
01:31:06,080 --> 01:31:09,720
Speaker 18: of going to a restaurant alone. How did your wife

1991
01:31:09,800 --> 01:31:10,120
Speaker 18: take that?

1992
01:31:10,920 --> 01:31:14,720
Speaker 16: She laughed, just like everybody else. Yeah, she You know,

1993
01:31:15,200 --> 01:31:17,240
Speaker 16: we're so past that point where it's like what.

1994
01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:17,800
Speaker 18: Are you doing?

1995
01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:19,400
Speaker 8: You're doing this and I'm doing that.

1996
01:31:19,880 --> 01:31:24,120
Speaker 16: You know, we've gone through those stages where you may

1997
01:31:24,240 --> 01:31:26,000
Speaker 16: want to feel a certain way about what the other

1998
01:31:26,120 --> 01:31:31,519
Speaker 16: person's doing. You know, we're so past that thankfully, And

1999
01:31:31,640 --> 01:31:33,479
Speaker 16: I and I and I think she's at the point too,

2000
01:31:33,720 --> 01:31:36,559
Speaker 16: like she wants to see me have success and she's

2001
01:31:37,080 --> 01:31:39,400
Speaker 16: she's she's partaking in that success. I mean, she's a

2002
01:31:39,479 --> 01:31:43,400
Speaker 16: huge part of that. So you know, if people are

2003
01:31:43,439 --> 01:31:46,080
Speaker 16: getting a good laugh out of eye interviews or anything

2004
01:31:46,160 --> 01:31:47,680
Speaker 16: like that, I think she's kind of enjoying it.

2005
01:31:47,720 --> 01:31:48,519
Speaker 8: For the most part too.

2006
01:31:49,360 --> 01:31:52,120
Speaker 18: Final fun fact, this one's kind of deep. If you

2007
01:31:52,200 --> 01:31:56,880
Speaker 18: could meet anyone in history, living or deceased, who would

2008
01:31:56,920 --> 01:31:57,519
Speaker 18: that person be?

2009
01:31:58,320 --> 01:32:03,640
Speaker 16: Wow, I'm good at these questions. I don't know if

2010
01:32:03,680 --> 01:32:06,679
Speaker 16: I have anybody specific. You know, we were just talking

2011
01:32:06,720 --> 01:32:09,800
Speaker 16: about all the unknowns that are in this world, and man,

2012
01:32:09,880 --> 01:32:11,880
Speaker 16: what would you like answers to? And you know, what

2013
01:32:11,920 --> 01:32:13,519
Speaker 16: would it be cool if you knew the answers to.

2014
01:32:14,439 --> 01:32:17,080
Speaker 16: I mean, shoot, I'd love to go back to when

2015
01:32:17,120 --> 01:32:20,639
Speaker 16: those pyramids are built then talk to somebody from that time,

2016
01:32:21,800 --> 01:32:23,760
Speaker 16: you know, and see what was the deal with that.

2017
01:32:24,520 --> 01:32:26,479
Speaker 16: But it's hard for me to pick out somebody specific.

2018
01:32:27,000 --> 01:32:29,639
Speaker 18: I'll cut your break because you've answered every other question

2019
01:32:29,720 --> 01:32:32,360
Speaker 18: beautifully and it's been a real treat to see you

2020
01:32:32,439 --> 01:32:34,280
Speaker 18: play and to see you lead this team.

2021
01:32:34,360 --> 01:32:35,960
Speaker 4: Thanks so much, Joe, I appreciate it.

2022
01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:36,320
Speaker 3: Thank you.

2023
01:32:36,640 --> 01:32:38,599
Speaker 2: I say it every time I hear Joe Flacco talk.

2024
01:32:38,760 --> 01:32:42,960
Speaker 2: I loved until he came here. My exposure to Joe

2025
01:32:43,040 --> 01:32:45,720
Speaker 2: Flacco was just like sound bites when he played on

2026
01:32:45,840 --> 01:32:47,920
Speaker 2: various teams. You'd hear a comment after a game. But

2027
01:32:48,320 --> 01:32:51,240
Speaker 2: the more he talks and the more reflective you understand

2028
01:32:51,400 --> 01:32:54,439
Speaker 2: he is. And you said it a couple of weeks ago, Dave,

2029
01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,080
Speaker 2: there is in your mind. I think a lot of

2030
01:32:57,080 --> 01:32:59,760
Speaker 2: people's minds there's a spot for Joe Flacco on this

2031
01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:04,479
Speaker 2: roster next season, assuming there's comfort here on both sides,

2032
01:33:04,520 --> 01:33:06,960
Speaker 2: and assuming there's not an opportunity to start someplace else.

2033
01:33:07,120 --> 01:33:08,800
Speaker 2: I think we both could see Joe Flacco on this

2034
01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:09,439
Speaker 2: team next year.

2035
01:33:09,439 --> 01:33:13,000
Speaker 3: Oh absolutely, He'd be the ideal number two quarterback for

2036
01:33:13,080 --> 01:33:20,559
Speaker 3: the Cincinnati Bengals. I mean, he's already made some serious friends, yeah,

2037
01:33:20,720 --> 01:33:24,280
Speaker 3: relationships on this football team. I mean, Joe Flacco is

2038
01:33:25,160 --> 01:33:28,880
Speaker 3: really a good person. I mean, married, so, a husband,

2039
01:33:29,160 --> 01:33:33,960
Speaker 3: father of five. He's a busy guy. And the fact

2040
01:33:34,080 --> 01:33:36,240
Speaker 3: is when he went in the football to play football

2041
01:33:36,280 --> 01:33:38,880
Speaker 3: games in the absence of Joe Borrow, he did well.

2042
01:33:39,240 --> 01:33:43,200
Speaker 3: He performed well, and I think that what he has

2043
01:33:43,280 --> 01:33:46,879
Speaker 3: done this year and how he's integrated himself with everybody,

2044
01:33:46,960 --> 01:33:49,479
Speaker 3: with the coaches, with the players, with the system, how

2045
01:33:49,520 --> 01:33:52,240
Speaker 3: they want to play football. He fits what they want

2046
01:33:52,360 --> 01:33:56,760
Speaker 3: in a quarterback. I'd be surprised if he doesn't have

2047
01:33:56,880 --> 01:33:59,599
Speaker 3: a better option, like you said, Lance, because I think

2048
01:33:59,640 --> 01:34:01,800
Speaker 3: he's played well off where other teams in the league

2049
01:34:01,840 --> 01:34:04,400
Speaker 3: are gonna be like now, he's you know, he's long

2050
01:34:04,439 --> 01:34:06,560
Speaker 3: in the tooth, forty years old. That's an issue, but

2051
01:34:07,560 --> 01:34:09,000
Speaker 3: you know, the guy can still spin it.

2052
01:34:09,080 --> 01:34:09,200
Speaker 4: Man.

2053
01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:11,080
Speaker 3: He's proven he can still throw it and throw it

2054
01:34:11,160 --> 01:34:13,519
Speaker 3: well and did a good job for the Cincinnati Bengals.

2055
01:34:14,280 --> 01:34:16,040
Speaker 3: I think the Bengal would be thrilled to have Joe

2056
01:34:16,120 --> 01:34:19,719
Speaker 3: Burrow Joe Flacko back in training camp next year, backing

2057
01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:20,439
Speaker 3: up Joe Burrow.

2058
01:34:20,800 --> 01:34:23,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the only problem. There's two Joes, and I

2059
01:34:23,320 --> 01:34:25,760
Speaker 2: always catch myself which I start to say one and

2060
01:34:25,880 --> 01:34:28,599
Speaker 2: I meet the other and we come back and change

2061
01:34:28,640 --> 01:34:31,680
Speaker 2: his name. Still ahead, let's talk about those Ravens. You'll

2062
01:34:31,720 --> 01:34:34,680
Speaker 2: hear John Harbaugh's opening thoughts from their loss yesterday to

2063
01:34:34,720 --> 01:34:38,080
Speaker 2: the Steelers, and we'll look ahead to the rematch against Baltimore.

2064
01:34:38,160 --> 01:34:40,840
Speaker 2: That is next Bengals line on the Bengals Radio Network

2065
01:34:40,880 --> 01:34:54,360
Speaker 2: and seven hundred WLW Cruise and right along with this

2066
01:34:54,600 --> 01:34:57,160
Speaker 2: Monday Night at Bengals line on the Bengals Radio Network

2067
01:34:57,200 --> 01:34:59,479
Speaker 2: in seven hundred WLW.

2068
01:34:59,160 --> 01:35:01,320
Speaker 3: And Lance pay Corp. Was proud to be the official

2069
01:35:01,560 --> 01:35:04,439
Speaker 3: HR software provider of the Cincinnati Bengals.

2070
01:35:04,520 --> 01:35:07,479
Speaker 2: Next up, Baltimore Ravens. Tough luck losers yesterday at home

2071
01:35:07,560 --> 01:35:10,160
Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty two to the Steelers. Ravens dropped

2072
01:35:10,160 --> 01:35:13,080
Speaker 2: to six and seven. Controversy late when a touchdown was

2073
01:35:13,439 --> 01:35:16,240
Speaker 2: overturned that the Ravens looked like they had taken the lead,

2074
01:35:16,640 --> 01:35:18,599
Speaker 2: but it's a rule of no catch and they fall

2075
01:35:18,680 --> 01:35:21,760
Speaker 2: twenty seven to twenty two. Here's John Harball after the game.

2076
01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:25,880
Speaker 24: All right, good game, tough loss. Fought to the end

2077
01:35:28,560 --> 01:35:31,519
Speaker 24: four games last Season's not over. Fighting for THEFC North

2078
01:35:31,560 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 24: for the next four games. That's where we stand. What questions,

2079
01:35:35,000 --> 01:35:36,040
Speaker 24: Jee on.

2080
01:35:36,080 --> 01:35:39,360
Speaker 11: The replay, it looked like Isaiah had got in two

2081
01:35:39,439 --> 01:35:41,640
Speaker 11: feet down. What was the explanation that was given to

2082
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:42,519
Speaker 11: you on the sideline?

2083
01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:44,559
Speaker 24: Yeah, the explanation was a third foot didn't get down

2084
01:35:44,600 --> 01:35:45,519
Speaker 24: before the ball came out.

2085
01:35:45,600 --> 01:35:46,240
Speaker 3: That's what they said.

2086
01:35:47,439 --> 01:35:48,879
Speaker 10: Do you believe it should have been touchdown?

2087
01:35:49,280 --> 01:35:50,920
Speaker 24: Uh, you know what, I believe a lot of things

2088
01:35:50,920 --> 01:35:54,040
Speaker 24: I think, I think to play with I think the

2089
01:35:54,080 --> 01:35:56,080
Speaker 24: Aaron Rodgers play, I mean just com of rules here.

2090
01:35:56,080 --> 01:35:57,080
Speaker 24: It's not an officiating issue.

2091
01:35:57,120 --> 01:35:57,840
Speaker 18: It comes from New York.

2092
01:35:57,920 --> 01:36:00,240
Speaker 24: But you know when you when you when you're making

2093
01:36:00,320 --> 01:36:02,439
Speaker 24: a catch, you have to you have to you have

2094
01:36:02,560 --> 01:36:05,080
Speaker 24: to survive the ground. You know, he he didn't survive

2095
01:36:05,120 --> 01:36:06,880
Speaker 24: the ground. He's no doubt, he's not down by contact.

2096
01:36:06,920 --> 01:36:07,599
Speaker 3: He was catching.

2097
01:36:07,680 --> 01:36:09,720
Speaker 24: He was catching the ball on the way down with

2098
01:36:09,840 --> 01:36:12,200
Speaker 24: another person. So you got to you gotta make a

2099
01:36:12,280 --> 01:36:13,599
Speaker 24: catch there and survive the ground. I don't know why

2100
01:36:13,600 --> 01:36:14,880
Speaker 24: it was ruled the way it was on that one.

2101
01:36:15,800 --> 01:36:18,800
Speaker 24: So all those things, I'm sure we'll they'll explain to us.

2102
01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:20,479
Speaker 24: But they had plenty of time to look at and

2103
01:36:20,520 --> 01:36:22,200
Speaker 24: they're the ones who are the experts on the rules.

2104
01:36:22,280 --> 01:36:23,240
Speaker 18: So that's how it works.

2105
01:36:23,320 --> 01:36:24,760
Speaker 3: How was the Rogers playing that?

2106
01:36:24,840 --> 01:36:26,439
Speaker 10: He was just down with the progression of the book?

2107
01:36:30,160 --> 01:36:32,640
Speaker 7: John, what did you see on the Travis Jones so.

2108
01:36:32,800 --> 01:36:35,880
Speaker 24: Kindly on the field goal that I didn't see heading

2109
01:36:35,960 --> 01:36:38,960
Speaker 24: that contact, That's what I did not see. So but

2110
01:36:39,120 --> 01:36:40,640
Speaker 24: you you need to have head and head in that

2111
01:36:40,760 --> 01:36:44,360
Speaker 24: career of contact there and it's gotta be forceful, you know, contact,

2112
01:36:45,560 --> 01:36:48,639
Speaker 24: not incident contact. I didn't see any contact myself.

2113
01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:52,599
Speaker 10: John, How do you, you know, talk to the players

2114
01:36:52,800 --> 01:36:54,880
Speaker 10: when you know, in a game where you feel like

2115
01:36:55,320 --> 01:36:56,880
Speaker 10: some calls might not go on your way? How do

2116
01:36:56,960 --> 01:36:59,400
Speaker 10: you how do you address and kind of take this

2117
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:01,000
Speaker 10: loss in and try to explain that.

2118
01:37:01,000 --> 01:37:01,360
Speaker 4: To you men?

2119
01:37:01,400 --> 01:37:01,800
Speaker 3: Your players?

2120
01:37:01,840 --> 01:37:03,320
Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean the players. The players don't you know,

2121
01:37:03,439 --> 01:37:05,280
Speaker 24: they know they've been in the NFL. They know how

2122
01:37:05,320 --> 01:37:08,120
Speaker 24: this stuff works, you know, And I tell them basically,

2123
01:37:08,160 --> 01:37:09,640
Speaker 24: we're not We're not. We're don't make any excuses. We

2124
01:37:09,640 --> 01:37:11,200
Speaker 24: don't put fingers. That's not what we do here.

2125
01:37:11,360 --> 01:37:11,760
Speaker 18: We never have.

2126
01:37:12,560 --> 01:37:14,519
Speaker 24: We walk out of here with our chest out and

2127
01:37:14,760 --> 01:37:16,640
Speaker 24: or chin up, you know, and we look to the

2128
01:37:16,720 --> 01:37:17,160
Speaker 24: next game.

2129
01:37:17,320 --> 01:37:17,479
Speaker 8: You know.

2130
01:37:17,680 --> 01:37:20,800
Speaker 24: We are fighting still for everything that we want to accomplish,

2131
01:37:20,880 --> 01:37:22,960
Speaker 24: you know. So it's been it's tough. It's been a tough,

2132
01:37:23,040 --> 01:37:27,560
Speaker 24: challenging road for sure, but that's where we're you know,

2133
01:37:27,640 --> 01:37:29,960
Speaker 24: and we will keep fighting and we believe we can

2134
01:37:30,000 --> 01:37:30,400
Speaker 24: get it done.

2135
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:33,120
Speaker 2: Ravens six and seven and Davids. We look to the

2136
01:37:33,600 --> 01:37:36,479
Speaker 2: rematch and think about what happened to the first one.

2137
01:37:36,560 --> 01:37:39,599
Speaker 2: Odds are the Ravens won't turn it over five times again.

2138
01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:41,800
Speaker 2: Odds are the Bengals won't be as bad as one

2139
01:37:41,880 --> 01:37:44,400
Speaker 2: for six in the red zone like they were, And

2140
01:37:44,479 --> 01:37:47,040
Speaker 2: odds are probably that Baltimore is not gonna get it's

2141
01:37:47,080 --> 01:37:49,680
Speaker 2: gonna feed Derek Henry more than the ten times in

2142
01:37:49,760 --> 01:37:50,559
Speaker 2: the first matchup.

2143
01:37:50,760 --> 01:37:53,679
Speaker 3: That's that's the crazy thing. I mean, because this guy,

2144
01:37:53,960 --> 01:37:56,200
Speaker 3: you talk about it, Piecet, you talk about an animal

2145
01:37:56,360 --> 01:37:59,479
Speaker 3: and pushing six to three, pushing two hundred and fifty

Speaker 2: Right down the Stretch Final Thoughts up the night day.

2170
01:39:28,680 --> 01:39:33,040
Speaker 2: Four games to go. The scenario is simple, I don't know. Simple.

2171
01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:35,400
Speaker 2: You gotta win the final four. The Steelers have to

2172
01:39:35,479 --> 01:39:38,600
Speaker 2: lose three of their final four and the Ravens have

2173
01:39:38,720 --> 01:39:41,880
Speaker 2: to lose at least two of their four, and uh

2174
01:39:42,000 --> 01:39:45,040
Speaker 2: then the Bengals would win tiebreakers. But let's just focus

2175
01:39:45,120 --> 01:39:47,560
Speaker 2: on beating the Ravens. We'll go from there. How that

2176
01:39:48,600 --> 01:39:52,080
Speaker 2: sounds like a plan, because winning four when you've only

2177
01:39:52,120 --> 01:39:54,040
Speaker 2: won four to this point is a big hurdle.

2178
01:39:54,120 --> 01:39:58,120
Speaker 3: So let's just work on one very good point, very strong, and.
