1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,080 Speaker 1: Getting set by a big game for the Broncos coming 2 00:00:02,160 --> 00:00:04,680 Speaker 1: up on Sunday. Our cover starts at eight am as 3 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: they take on the Kansas City Chiefs. There's a lot 4 00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:08,399 Speaker 1: riding on this game, and I don't need to tell you, 5 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:12,560 Speaker 1: guys that you already know that. The Broncos know that. 6 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:16,320 Speaker 1: I think the NFL world is going to be watching 7 00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,599 Speaker 1: this game. I mean that there's another big game between 8 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,840 Speaker 1: the Seahawks and Rams, but I mean, as far as 9 00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:26,360 Speaker 1: implications go, those are pretty significant. And for the Broncos, 10 00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 1: who a lot of people are continuing to drum up 11 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,919 Speaker 1: the idea that this is a fraudulent eight and two team. Now, 12 00:00:33,920 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: you can only beat the teams that are in front 13 00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 1: of you, and you do have a couple of signature 14 00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 1: wins on the slates, right, I mean, you've definitely shown 15 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: up when you needed to in a couple of big moments, 16 00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: but you haven't played the Chiefs yet. And you know 17 00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,080 Speaker 1: the times I've done Broncos react this season. So many 18 00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: times I'd get callers or textures say well, yeah, but yeah, 19 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 1: but they haven't played, or this wouldn't be good enough 20 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,279 Speaker 1: against the Ravens of the Bills, et cetera. Which, by 21 00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 1: the way, those teams are looking pretty flawed right now. 22 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: I don't think there's any complete team out there, even 23 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: the Indianapolis Colts. I mean, if you look at the 24 00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:11,760 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks of Daniel Jones, he's got like 25 00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:15,960 Speaker 1: two passing touchdowns, four interceptions, and I think he's taken 26 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:18,920 Speaker 1: somewhere around twelve sacks over the last two weeks. 27 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 2: So every team. 28 00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: Has stretches where you still find a way to win, 29 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,200 Speaker 1: and that's the most important thing overall. And even we 30 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,479 Speaker 1: had Gary Boles on he said the exact same thing that, hey, 31 00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:31,119 Speaker 1: you people are gonna say whatever they want to say 32 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:32,520 Speaker 1: about the offense and what we're doing. 33 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 2: We were winning and we have a formula here. And 34 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:38,320 Speaker 2: he's right, you know, in the end, you found a 35 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:38,720 Speaker 2: way to win. 36 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 1: Last night, the Eagles unapologetically won that game against Green Bay. 37 00:01:42,120 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: They're not gonna spend any time today thinking to themselves, gosh, 38 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: that was so close we should. 39 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 2: Have won by more. Well, no, of course not. 40 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: You find a way to win, and that's that's all 41 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: that matters. You move on to the next week. But 42 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,560 Speaker 1: this game of horse coming against Kansas City, there's a 43 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 1: lot of implications and it's it's far beyond just the 44 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: A West, because the Broncos are in control of the 45 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 1: AFC West as we sit here today at eight and two. 46 00:02:04,840 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 1: Now they got the Chargers nipping on their heels at 47 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 1: seven and three, and the Chargers own at least a 48 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: head to head tiebreaker for now until the two teams 49 00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: meet at the final game of this season. But the 50 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: Chiefs at five and four, this is their opportunity to 51 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: get back into the race. 52 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:19,280 Speaker 2: If they can win this thing. 53 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:23,000 Speaker 1: Simultaneously they lose, they're on five and five, and that 54 00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:25,680 Speaker 1: is a different ballgame altogether for the Kansas City Chiefs. 55 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,679 Speaker 1: It's not to say that they can't still sneak into 56 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs. There's some teams in the back end of 57 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,040 Speaker 1: the AFC right now that aren't in good position, like 58 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: say the Jacksonville Jaguars. They can find a way into 59 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 1: this thing, but it may not be through the AFC West, 60 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,760 Speaker 1: which means they'll be traveling in Week one. They're not 61 00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: afraid to do that. They obviously won a Super Bowl 62 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:47,240 Speaker 1: doing that. But you certainly would like that position for 63 00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: the Broncos, that they can get to nine to two 64 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:50,200 Speaker 1: heading into the bye week. 65 00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: The JK Dobbins thing is worth monitoring. 66 00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,239 Speaker 1: Certainly, he has been your most productive and most consistent 67 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 1: offensive weapon. If he's out for this game, I'm sure 68 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: that's going to impact a lot of people's view of it. 69 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,400 Speaker 1: I don't think it moves the needle too much of 70 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:06,280 Speaker 1: what I think they're going to ultimately have to do 71 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: to win the game. But we'll get into that as 72 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: the week goes on. I would like to have JK. 73 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,280 Speaker 1: Dobbins out there, but they really do believe in RJ. Harvey, 74 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: and this is gonna be one of those. At least 75 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:17,600 Speaker 1: you knew ahead of time that you were going to 76 00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: have to pivot to RJ. Harvey, Tyler Badet and Julia 77 00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: McLoughlin backfield. You knew that ahead of time. But I 78 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 1: did want to talk about this article from Benjamin ben Solac, 79 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:29,160 Speaker 1: Benjamin Ben whatever Ben. 80 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,440 Speaker 2: Solac with ESPN. Now. 81 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:34,960 Speaker 1: He did kind of a look at the twenty twenty 82 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: four NFL Draft class quarterbacks and sort of split this 83 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: into two groups. The top three guys how Caleb Williams, 84 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 1: Jaydon Daniels, and Drake Mayer performing versus the next three guys, 85 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 1: Michael Pennox, Junior, JJ McCarthy and Boonix, and he points 86 00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 1: out how impressed it was to see six quarterbacks taken 87 00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,360 Speaker 1: within the top twelve picks, and we've talked about that 88 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: quite a bit. It's the earliest of twelfth or a 89 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,240 Speaker 1: sixth quarterback has ever gone in the history of the 90 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:08,960 Speaker 1: NFL Draft. Simultaneously, the fourth quarterback of Michael Pennick's also 91 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:11,800 Speaker 1: the earliest therapick number eight. There's all such of records 92 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: broken last year when these quarterbacks were taken. Now, I 93 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: do think he jumps to some conclusions. As you guys know, 94 00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: if you've been following the Broncos and specifically Bonux for 95 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: any length of time, that he was not a popular 96 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:32,279 Speaker 1: draft prospect. Along with a lot of the analysts, many 97 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:35,719 Speaker 1: of them viewed him outside of the first round Day 98 00:04:35,760 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 1: two prospects. 99 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 2: For sure. 100 00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 1: I didn't see many out there as we were kind 101 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: of on the trail out there at the combine. I 102 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: didn't see many people out there thinking he was gonna 103 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: be a Day three guy, but firmly in a Day 104 00:04:45,279 --> 00:04:48,840 Speaker 1: two prospect. The Broncos, on the other hand, viewed him 105 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,960 Speaker 1: higher and that's why they took him in twelfth. Overall, 106 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:54,400 Speaker 1: they viewed him as a franchise quarterback, and Sean Payton 107 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways bet his legacy on it. 108 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: The returns have been good. I mean, you're a winning team, 109 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,159 Speaker 1: and you've been a winning team with bo Nicks. You 110 00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:03,559 Speaker 1: won ten games last year, you've won eight this year, 111 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,719 Speaker 1: you're eighteen and nine. Overall, it's a pretty good return 112 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,919 Speaker 1: and there isn't a single quarterback in the draft class 113 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 1: last year that. 114 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 2: Could sport that. 115 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:16,680 Speaker 1: Now this gets into some murky waters, though, because quarterback 116 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: wins is a flawed stat. So I'm not gonna sit 117 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:23,160 Speaker 1: here on the pulpit and tell you that quarterback wins 118 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 1: is all of a sudden something that ultimately matters more 119 00:05:26,040 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: than anything else, because I have four years told you 120 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:30,359 Speaker 1: that is a flawed stat. 121 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 2: It matters, it's important to. 122 00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:37,359 Speaker 1: Discuss, but its context to almost everything else is not 123 00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: the number one thing. 124 00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,440 Speaker 2: Winning is the most important thing. But quarterback wins. 125 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 1: As a stat is a difficult thing to completely diagnose 126 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 1: because of so many other factors, which includes the roster 127 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,279 Speaker 1: around them, the defensive ce coaching, all of it. 128 00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: I mean, it really all matters there. 129 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:57,239 Speaker 1: But quarterback wins is the thing that you can use 130 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: as a discussion point because so many any of the 131 00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 1: characteristics of bow Knicks, and I think that that gets 132 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: ignored in this article from Vin Solak are about quarterback wins. 133 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 1: You're an eight and two team, boon Knicks is not 134 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 1: a passenger in that bo Nicks has been driving the bus, 135 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,719 Speaker 1: now maybe not full time driving the bus. The defense 136 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,040 Speaker 1: has got a hand in this, no doubt about it. 137 00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: And depending on who you discussed and talk to, the 138 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: defense might be the driving factor, but the offensive has 139 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: had to make plays. You don't have the fourth quarter 140 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: come back against the Giants without bow Knicks being elite 141 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: in that fourth quarter, and you argue with the other 142 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:42,839 Speaker 1: three quarters what they were in the end, he found 143 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,760 Speaker 1: a way in the fourth quarter and they won that game. 144 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 2: And we've seen that multitude of times. 145 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,480 Speaker 1: Even in the Raiders game, his by far worst performance 146 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: of the season so far, he had a tremendous drive, 147 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:56,800 Speaker 1: tremendous throw. I mean they did a lot of it 148 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: on the ground, but a tremendous throw at Troy Franklin 149 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,760 Speaker 1: to advance. It's the ball past midfield. And then of 150 00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:05,680 Speaker 1: course JK. Dobbins closed that thing out. But that offensive 151 00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,040 Speaker 1: drive had fingerprints of bon Nicks. We'll come back, we'll 152 00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 1: finish this conversation. There are some things about the article 153 00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 1: that are fair. Some of the advanced stats on bone 154 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: Nicks are fair the negative ones. They're not on a 155 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: lot of positive ones, except for the fact that Ben 156 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: decides to point out his sack percentage, which we discussed yesterday, 157 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:29,440 Speaker 1: is the best in the NFL. But the rest of 158 00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:31,000 Speaker 1: them are I mean that there are where they are, 159 00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 1: but he takes one leap that I specifically have a 160 00:07:36,400 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 1: massive problem with, and I'll explain that coming up next. 161 00:07:41,080 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 1: Somebody on the text line says more seventy five to 162 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 1: twenty five for the defense. 163 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:46,560 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to take away from the defense. 164 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: It's just the quarterback is the most important position in 165 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: all of sports. And so if you're gonna say that 166 00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 1: bo Nicks is a passenger for all of this, you're 167 00:07:53,240 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 1: just really blind yourself. There's really no other way around that. 168 00:07:57,760 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 1: I'm going to get to the rest of this article 169 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: here in just a second way of Shelby Harris joining 170 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,080 Speaker 1: us here about ten minutes. 171 00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 2: Rod Smith in the. 172 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: Studio after five o'clock get his thoughts on all of this. 173 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:10,040 Speaker 1: But today is Veterans Day, and certainly want to wish 174 00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: everybody out there a happy Veterans Day, and Oliver's Italian 175 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: is offering a free meal up to thirty dollars plus 176 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: a non alcoholic beverage to all veterans in active duty 177 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: military as a heartfelt thank you for their service and sacrifice. 178 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,440 Speaker 1: So I wanted to shout out Oliver's Italian.

So again, 186 00:08:45,320 --> 00:08:47,480 Speaker 1: Shelby Harris here in just a matter of moments, so 187 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,200 Speaker 1: back to this Benzolac article, as he kind of went 188 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: back and looked at the twenty twenty four draft class 189 00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:56,880 Speaker 1: and kind of ripped apart Bonix in a good portion 190 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: of it. And Ben so Locke has done this. This 191 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:03,160 Speaker 1: is like pretty typical stuff. This is like a punching bag. 192 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:05,520 Speaker 1: I think this is kind of the Pinata for a 193 00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: lot of analysts out there when it comes to quarterback play, 194 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: and he is divisive, I mean Bonix's I mean it's 195 00:09:11,800 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: not TBO divisive, but it's divisive because a lot of 196 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:18,240 Speaker 1: advanced analytics tell you that Bonix is having a tough year. 197 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: But then you look the win loss record, and you 198 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 1: look at him being top five and touchdown passes and 199 00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,079 Speaker 1: number one in sacks give it up, and then you go, well, 200 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,040 Speaker 1: I mean, there are some things he's doing well and 201 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:29,840 Speaker 1: including the fourth quarter comebacks. The thing that bothered me 202 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: the most though about this article is the leaps that 203 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 1: he took at the very end of it, because I 204 00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:40,280 Speaker 1: don't believe you can draw conclusions based on what we've 205 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: seen from any quarterback a year and a half into 206 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,360 Speaker 1: their time as a pro. And honestly, we have so 207 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:50,160 Speaker 1: much history now seeing guys like Baker Mayfield, as Sam 208 00:09:50,240 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: Darnold and even Mac Jones out there at the forty 209 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 1: nine ers. 210 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,360 Speaker 2: I could go on and on of guys that have 211 00:09:55,400 --> 00:09:56,560 Speaker 2: had second and third chances. 212 00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: Gino Smith here, you've reinvigorated, revitalized his career. 213 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 2: You're out there in Seattle. 214 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: We've seen so many indications why you should almost not 215 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: give up on these guys, especially first round quarterbacks so early, 216 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: or make definitive statements about how much talent they are, 217 00:10:12,440 --> 00:10:14,800 Speaker 1: or how much talent they have, or who they're going 218 00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: to be over the course of their career. And unfortunately 219 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: Ben kind of does that here at the end of 220 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 1: his articles, he goes through and he paints this picture 221 00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: of a quarterback that's really struggling out there. And again, 222 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,400 Speaker 1: I'm not going to pretend that Nix isn't struggling. He's 223 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: in a tough game against the Raiders. He struggled against 224 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:34,280 Speaker 1: the Texans too, But by and large, I think there's 225 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 1: more good for Bonix than bad. I believe that you 226 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 1: guys can have whatever opinion about that you want. But 227 00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,520 Speaker 1: he says, in their frustration talking about the three teams 228 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: that drafted quarterback four five and six Pinnix, McCarthy and Knicks, 229 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 1: they coped by conjuring value in quarterbacks four five and 230 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 1: six that never existed previously. How lovely a treat that 231 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,679 Speaker 1: developmental quarterback fell into Atlanta's lap to pairt their aging veteran, 232 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,200 Speaker 1: a Packers esque investment in the now in the future. 233 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: How wonderful that the next, Drew Brees entered the draft 234 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 1: in the exact year that Peyton's Broncos needed a quarterback 235 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: on a rookie contract to heal their cap sheets and 236 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: spark their roster. 237 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 2: Not just convenient but magical. 238 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:24,040 Speaker 1: Of course, wishing doesn't make it, so he goes on 239 00:11:24,080 --> 00:11:27,640 Speaker 1: to say in the chill of Week ten, the predestination 240 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 1: of talent quashes those fictions. We are brutally reminded that 241 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 1: some quarterbacks have enough talent to warrant early first round 242 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: investments to grow into something spectacular to change the franchise. 243 00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 1: Others have less talent, not no talent, not in sufficion talent, 244 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: but less. It will be harder for them to win 245 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:48,479 Speaker 1: despite adverse circumstances or tip the scales against elite opponents. 246 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,560 Speaker 1: Drafting them ten point twenty, even as many as fifty 247 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 1: picks earlier than their talent demands, doesn't alter the reality 248 00:11:56,440 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 1: of their talent at all. So it's obnoxious, And he is, 249 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 1: I mean pretty smarty there. 250 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 2: What an idiot, Oh, what a loser. 251 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 1: And I always continue to push back on the idea 252 00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 1: that analysts in general, and I'm not going to point 253 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,120 Speaker 1: to his I mean, you know, you go look at 254 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:22,200 Speaker 1: Ben Solac and you can say whatever you want about 255 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,439 Speaker 1: his physical stature, right, he looks like he's in high 256 00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: school at this point or whatever. More than anything, though, 257 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: I think the point that I continue to push back 258 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: with analysts is that you don't know more than the 259 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,360 Speaker 1: teams do. You'd like to pretend you do, and you're 260 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:39,960 Speaker 1: gonna use a lot of fancy stats, but I didn't 261 00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:40,560 Speaker 1: play the game. 262 00:12:40,640 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: You didn't play the game, not at that level. 263 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:49,960 Speaker 1: And what we get to do is appreciate, report on, analyze, 264 00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:54,839 Speaker 1: and enjoy the game. We don't get to sit here 265 00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: and tell any of these organizations, well, I had him 266 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: as pick sixty five and you took him at pick twelve. 267 00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 1: You don't know what you're doing. Ty will tell it, 268 00:13:09,880 --> 00:13:11,920 Speaker 1: Ben Solak or a lot of these analysts out there 269 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 1: that don't like Bonnicks or don't think bone Nicks should 270 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 1: be a starting caliber quarterback are correct. But as we 271 00:13:17,760 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 1: sit here today, there are plenty of stats, and I 272 00:13:22,040 --> 00:13:26,439 Speaker 1: mean this stats along with even the eye tests, that 273 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:28,440 Speaker 1: tell you that not only does he belong, but he 274 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,959 Speaker 1: is a starting caliber quarterback and he's got his team 275 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:34,520 Speaker 1: leading the AFC West eleven weeks into the NFL season. 276 00:13:35,400 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: Take that for data. 277 00:13:37,760 --> 00:13:39,960 Speaker 1: When we come back, Shelby Harris is going to join us, 278 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: get his thoughts on this point in the season. See 279 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: where his hat's at after a tough loss against the Jets, 280 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: bringing a very good friend of the program, the one 281 00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 1: and only Shelby Harris. 282 00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 2: Shelby, my friend. Good to catch up with you. How 283 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 2: are you. 284 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 3: I'm doing great? 285 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 2: How we're doing great? Yeah, the Broncos are winning. 286 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: The people are are upset about it some reason because 287 00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:05,199 Speaker 1: it doesn't look great. Does it look pretty? It's not dominant? 288 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: I don't know, man, it's some to win in this league. 289 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:10,959 Speaker 1: I know that you know that better than Almst anybody 290 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:12,239 Speaker 1: will ever have on the show. 291 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 3: Man, I can tell you what does look dominant. That 292 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 3: defense looks dominant. And while you try to figure it out, 293 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 3: I'd rather figure it out at eight and two rather 294 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 3: than being two and eight like like, no matter what 295 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,280 Speaker 3: people saying, what people have got to understand is, Okay, 296 00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 3: every team's going to have their problems. I'd rather have 297 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:35,440 Speaker 3: my problems than try to figure them out while I'm 298 00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 3: still winning. That's the That's where the Broncos are right now. 299 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 3: And and if I'm a Bronco fan, I should be 300 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 3: nothing but excited and ecstatic because our offense has been 301 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: honestly like hissed forward at this point and we're still 302 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 3: winning games. Like we're like, you're still winning games. You're 303 00:14:56,840 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 3: eight and two, Like there's nothing there should not be. 304 00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:01,760 Speaker 3: I get it, be mad, like, you know, we could 305 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 3: be frustrated about the offense, but there's no reason there 306 00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 3: should be any ounce of any type of negativity right 307 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:10,160 Speaker 3: now in Broca country. It's so much to look up to. 308 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,000 Speaker 3: You're not even playing their best and they have the 309 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:17,520 Speaker 3: best records. That's what you That's right. There is a 310 00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 3: perfect position to be it. 311 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,120 Speaker 1: I like the mindset man, and yeah, you're right. They 312 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: acknowledge that too. They're not playing their best football and 313 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: they still think think they can get to that. 314 00:15:27,400 --> 00:15:30,080 Speaker 2: I say that, and maybe you can speak on this. 315 00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: I think some of it has to do is just 316 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,680 Speaker 1: sort of the history of the last decade when it 317 00:15:33,680 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 1: comes to offensive play here in Denver, and I think 318 00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: that tends to creep in to the analysis for every 319 00:15:41,240 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 1: fan when it comes to what they're watching, it's like, okay, well, yeah, 320 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: we're used to having a very good defense, and that's 321 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,280 Speaker 1: that's carried this team before. But you know, you can't 322 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:54,120 Speaker 1: really go anywhere unless the offense does their share. And 323 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,240 Speaker 1: that's where I feel like the offense is getting maligned 324 00:15:57,280 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 1: a bit here. I don't think it's as pisspor as 325 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 1: as they were to describing there. I think it's a 326 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 1: little better than that. But I think that the history 327 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 1: here of the last decade has sort of clouded the 328 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,400 Speaker 1: judgment and the view of how the offense is performing 329 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 1: because it's been so bad. 330 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:16,680 Speaker 3: You know, I agree, I do believe that obviously it's 331 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 3: it's the past. Is it's still so recent to a 332 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 3: lot of Broccos fans that it's hard for them to, 333 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 3: you know, get that idea of advanced Joseph vic Fangio years. 334 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 3: Get that out of their mind. You know that Nathaniel 335 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,720 Speaker 3: Hackett years, I get that out of your mind. It's 336 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 3: the there's always positives and that years to look at 337 00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 3: and and and the thing that I always say that 338 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:46,640 Speaker 3: the Broncos are doing is even with the Votnick's not 339 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,080 Speaker 3: playing his best, even with you know, like really just Courtland, 340 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:53,920 Speaker 3: everyone's like getting involved with the run games really like 341 00:16:54,040 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 3: up and down all over the place. O line. You 342 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:00,360 Speaker 3: got injuries all over the place. They are still a 343 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,120 Speaker 3: couple of big players away, a couple just a couple 344 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,320 Speaker 3: of blocks aways. It would be like ten people are. 345 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,720 Speaker 4: Doing their job and one person that messes. 346 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 3: Up, and that messages the whole playoffs that can be fixed. 347 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:14,280 Speaker 3: But before in the year's pass, we were just garbage 348 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:15,679 Speaker 3: to people, to be honest, like we were just we 349 00:17:15,840 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 3: We had no hope on offense. We didn't have the 350 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:22,600 Speaker 3: playmakers that even that they even looked forward to, you know, 351 00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 3: after DP left out, they weren't lowed to. It was 352 00:17:24,560 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 3: just like who who's going to make a play. They 353 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 3: have playmakers all over this office, all over this team. 354 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 3: What they have and modern THEMS is is a big 355 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,960 Speaker 3: play threat anyway, the emergency play Franklin, they have guys 356 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 3: now and so it's just like be patient. It's nothing 357 00:17:38,960 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 3: like the times from up before because even with that 358 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 3: even play amazing. But all those years off there, the 359 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:47,399 Speaker 3: defense is still playing great, but we were still losing. 360 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,359 Speaker 3: That should tell you something. That's to tell you at 361 00:17:50,400 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 3: least the offense isn't losing games like they were when 362 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 3: I was there. And that's why I thought it like, 363 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,640 Speaker 3: as long as the offense doesn't lose you games. You'll 364 00:17:58,720 --> 00:18:00,920 Speaker 3: be able to figure it out. And the offense has 365 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 3: done just enough to win all those games. And then 366 00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 3: once they get over that hump, they won't to be 367 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 3: It's gonna be a very great team to watch. 368 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: I completely agree. 369 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 1: And they do have the playmakers and there's some opportunities there. 370 00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 1: Do you think, and again, you're you're outside, I mean, 371 00:18:15,600 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 1: we're all kind of the outside looking in on whatever 372 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:19,560 Speaker 1: happens inside of a team. 373 00:18:19,600 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 2: But when you know you have a. 374 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:25,720 Speaker 1: Defense like that, does it happen sometimes where the team, 375 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 1: or at least say the offensive coordinator in this case 376 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:32,800 Speaker 1: against Sean Payton, calls complimentary to the strength of the team, 377 00:18:32,840 --> 00:18:35,960 Speaker 1: as in, hey, listen, we we will not make mistakes 378 00:18:36,000 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: and take sacks and we're not going to put the 379 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 1: defense in bad positions. I mean, does that does that 380 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 1: sort of leak into the way that you call games 381 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: or the way that you function as a team when 382 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:47,840 Speaker 1: you realize, hey, one side of the ball is very 383 00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,320 Speaker 1: very good, let's not mess it up for them. 384 00:18:50,000 --> 00:18:52,240 Speaker 3: I'll feel like that would be what you would do 385 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,959 Speaker 3: if you had like a veteran Skillton guy at quarterbacks. 386 00:18:57,520 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 3: But at this point where Bothenis. You're still trying to teach. 387 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 3: They're still trying to have him learn, you know, the 388 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 3: ins and outs of the offense. You're not trying to 389 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 3: set him back. So it's hard to just be like, 390 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,160 Speaker 3: you know, it's easy to say, Okay, yeah, don't turn 391 00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 3: the ball. We're gonna make it easy for you. But 392 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 3: then that sensus development. And so I'm a big believer 393 00:19:16,000 --> 00:19:17,680 Speaker 3: of I don't think Sean Payton would do that. I 394 00:19:17,680 --> 00:19:20,959 Speaker 3: don't think he would draft bo Nick if he believed 395 00:19:20,960 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 3: he had to do that. And I'm thinking, and I'm 396 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 3: a big believer of I think he's wanting to get 397 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 3: it together. It's really easy to figure it out when 398 00:19:29,280 --> 00:19:31,679 Speaker 3: your deep business is playing that good. It gives you 399 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:35,199 Speaker 3: that confidence of yeah, he can't, I can't make a 400 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:37,800 Speaker 3: mistake and these guys are going to bail me out. 401 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:40,480 Speaker 3: And that has to be the best feelings for a quarterback. 402 00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 2: No doubt about it. 403 00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: Hey, we're talking earlier about division games. Yeah, I mean again, 404 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,119 Speaker 1: you've been playing NFL for so long. You guys got 405 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,159 Speaker 1: another one against the Ravens coming up on Sunday. But 406 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:52,959 Speaker 1: just just in general, why are division games so different? 407 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 2: Why? 408 00:19:53,320 --> 00:19:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean is it the familiarity, is it just the familiarity? 409 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,239 Speaker 1: Is there a different level you sort of go up 410 00:19:58,280 --> 00:19:59,560 Speaker 1: to when you know it's a division game? 411 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:00,360 Speaker 2: What's going on on there? 412 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 3: It's just one is bragging, right because you see these people, 413 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,040 Speaker 3: you see this this seemed twice twice a year, home 414 00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 3: and away. So obviously you want to walk running their house. 415 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 3: You want to and you want to beat them. But 416 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,399 Speaker 3: then also you got to protect home. You got to 417 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,520 Speaker 3: protect home field. For those division games. 418 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,160 Speaker 4: You have to think there's years and years and years. 419 00:20:18,800 --> 00:20:22,119 Speaker 3: Of history behind those games you're playing. And you got 420 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: to think you're playing these guys twice a year, and 421 00:20:24,119 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: you're going to get the same people twice, it's going 422 00:20:26,080 --> 00:20:28,840 Speaker 3: to be some bad blood that eventually boils. You know 423 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 3: that boils over. And and of course in a game 424 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 3: as football is so highly competitive and and with a 425 00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:38,800 Speaker 3: bunch of outphits running around, there's going to be some 426 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,480 Speaker 3: trash talk when you start. Especially you think about like 427 00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 3: Broncos are playing the Chiefs. You got to think, well, 428 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 3: the Chiefs have had the number because the Broncos are 429 00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 3: are coming around, the Chiefs have been winning, and this 430 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:51,879 Speaker 3: has been you know, the Chiefs have been relevant for 431 00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 3: the last like you know, six eight years, and every 432 00:20:57,040 --> 00:20:58,959 Speaker 3: time the Broncos go out there to play, the Broncos 433 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:00,640 Speaker 3: are trying to you know, it's I feel like they're 434 00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:03,360 Speaker 3: a little brother and that's not how And that's kind 435 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 3: of the thought proference beyond these games. You're trying to 436 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 3: and there's these other teams. You're trying to make them 437 00:21:09,480 --> 00:21:11,560 Speaker 3: feel like little brothers. You're trying to make them feel 438 00:21:11,640 --> 00:21:14,359 Speaker 3: inferior because this is our division, you know what I mean? 439 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 3: This is this is this is how, this is how 440 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,080 Speaker 3: you're going to control the division. So we love those 441 00:21:19,119 --> 00:21:23,360 Speaker 3: games because it's it's it's they're a little bit more personal. No, 442 00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 3: I mean a little bit. It's a little bit more 443 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 3: background behind them. 444 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I mean that that makes a lot of sense. 445 00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: Shelby Harris joining us here. Let me ask you about 446 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:34,040 Speaker 1: about the Chiefs specifically. I mean, you obviously played with 447 00:21:34,040 --> 00:21:35,399 Speaker 1: the Broncos here for several years. 448 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 2: What is it. 449 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:40,960 Speaker 1: About Mahomes and Reeds and the way that they're able 450 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 1: to close. I always felt like there was some kind 451 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,359 Speaker 1: of mental block or mental thing that they had on 452 00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,920 Speaker 1: other teams where teams would just find ways to make 453 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,239 Speaker 1: mistakes and give them opportunities or give them games, Like, 454 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:54,920 Speaker 1: is it. 455 00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 2: Just they're that good? 456 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,959 Speaker 1: What is it about that team in the aura of 457 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,439 Speaker 1: that team that makes it be able to close the 458 00:22:01,440 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: way they do. 459 00:22:02,720 --> 00:22:06,879 Speaker 3: I just believe they're They're extremely well coached for any situation. 460 00:22:07,640 --> 00:22:10,840 Speaker 3: And what the Chiefs have always done is they capitalize 461 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 3: with every situation that even a lot of other teams 462 00:22:13,960 --> 00:22:15,880 Speaker 3: you know, may not know. They always have some type 463 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,040 Speaker 3: of trickery. They always have some type they have something 464 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,919 Speaker 3: in their bag NonStop of things that are meant to 465 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 3: kind of push boundaries and and you know, throw off 466 00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 3: the line. But I believe though that what the Chiefss 467 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 3: do is they just make you make a mistake. They 468 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 3: don't make the mistakes. They live off of other people 469 00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: making mistakes. And then you know, trying to get they 470 00:22:35,800 --> 00:22:38,760 Speaker 3: get a lead and then Chris Jones is Chris Jones 471 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:40,960 Speaker 3: and Carlostis is going to go eat to go crazy. 472 00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 3: They they especially this year, but the way they've been 473 00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:48,000 Speaker 3: struggling is they haven't been It's really completely opposite. 474 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 4: I feel like this season for the Chiefs, a lot 475 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:51,320 Speaker 4: of the time. 476 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:56,000 Speaker 3: There they are not winning those close games. Yep, it 477 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,840 Speaker 3: doesn't look like those Chiefs before, But you who looks 478 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 3: like the Chiefs are before the Denver Broncos finding a 479 00:23:01,880 --> 00:23:04,359 Speaker 3: way to win all these close games. Isn't that crazy? 480 00:23:04,440 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 3: How quick the kind of the feeling can switch in 481 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:11,080 Speaker 3: the division, like the Chiefs are. You know, everyone's feeling 482 00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 3: down on them, But the Broncos are just finding any 483 00:23:13,480 --> 00:23:15,800 Speaker 3: way to win. And that's why we even have these 484 00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 3: questions about them as an eight to two team, because 485 00:23:19,560 --> 00:23:21,320 Speaker 3: they just keep finding a way to win. And there's 486 00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,160 Speaker 3: all these situations that keep happening. 487 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,560 Speaker 4: But the Broncos is win and that's what the Chiefs. 488 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 3: Is to do. 489 00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:30,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to say they were like eleven to 490 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:33,440 Speaker 1: zero in one score games last year or something along 491 00:23:33,480 --> 00:23:36,280 Speaker 1: those lines, and this year they're own four. The Chiefs 492 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: are mean, while the Broncos are six and two in 493 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,840 Speaker 1: this one score game. So I think, I think to 494 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,080 Speaker 1: your point, that's exactly what it feels like. Is is 495 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: sort of a flipped script, if you will. But the 496 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:48,720 Speaker 1: Kansaity Chiefs, you're coming in sound that this is such 497 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 1: a big game, and I do want to ask you 498 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 1: for the Browns here in a second, But the Kansty 499 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,120 Speaker 1: Chiefs coming in sound, this is such a big game 500 00:23:54,160 --> 00:23:56,119 Speaker 1: because even though the Chiefs are five and four, the 501 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,320 Speaker 1: Broncos are eting two and they seem to be in control. 502 00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:03,479 Speaker 1: I just I think that there is a mindset that 503 00:24:03,560 --> 00:24:07,360 Speaker 1: people want to see the Broncos have a signature win 504 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:10,680 Speaker 1: and maybe control the game. Do you think that even 505 00:24:10,720 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 1: matters or do you just any way you get to win? 506 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: Does that's all that ultimately matters? 507 00:24:15,280 --> 00:24:18,440 Speaker 3: Here? I think any way you can get to win 508 00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:24,240 Speaker 3: is what actually matters, because come playoff time, come Week seventeen. 509 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:25,680 Speaker 4: Come playoff time, come all. 510 00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 3: At the end of the season, it's all about who 511 00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 3: has that resolved in those close games to figure it out. 512 00:24:34,800 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 4: And the team that has that resolved is a team. 513 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:39,520 Speaker 3: That had to deal with it the most and had 514 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,800 Speaker 3: to dig deep and figure out a way to win. 515 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:44,560 Speaker 3: And the Denver Bobles have been figuring that out. And 516 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,520 Speaker 3: before it was a Kansas City chief whenever whenever the 517 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,960 Speaker 3: game was close in the fourth quarter, and we always 518 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 3: believe because of previous history, they showed us that the 519 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:59,200 Speaker 3: Kansas City Chiefs would figure it out. And this year 520 00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 3: that is the dif and that's what's making them special 521 00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 3: one hundred percent. 522 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 2: All right, last couple here for you buddy, So what 523 00:25:06,520 --> 00:25:09,439 Speaker 2: what a weird game this last week? You know, you 524 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:10,440 Speaker 2: guys got up seven. 525 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:12,320 Speaker 1: Nothing, and it's like, all right, the Browns are doing 526 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: what they're supposed to do. And then you get a 527 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: power turn touchdown or a kickoff return touchdown, and that 528 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,120 Speaker 1: a power turn touchdown, and you blink and it's fourteen 529 00:25:19,200 --> 00:25:19,719 Speaker 1: to seven. 530 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:21,359 Speaker 2: I guess you know. 531 00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:23,760 Speaker 1: That game in a lot of ways, it's like the 532 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:27,000 Speaker 1: most NFL game ever, right, I mean, just when you 533 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 1: think that the things are going a certain way, of course, 534 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,360 Speaker 1: you guys battle back, and then they battle back. 535 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:33,240 Speaker 2: And then they ended up, you know, kind of escaping 536 00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 2: with a win there. 537 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,600 Speaker 1: But just to show you like, whatever you predict is 538 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: gonna happen in a game, it's gonna obviously turn on 539 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,320 Speaker 1: its head, especially if you get a couple of special 540 00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:43,320 Speaker 1: teams touchdowns. 541 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 2: What was your takeaway from that game? 542 00:25:45,400 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 3: Well, I'll tell you a story. So you know, it's 543 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:51,560 Speaker 3: we go up seven zero, all right, and then you know, 544 00:25:51,760 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 3: so ferst, we got to stop even and then we 545 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 3: go up seven zero. I'm about to step in the field, 546 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 3: like I'm about to go out there and then I'll 547 00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:01,440 Speaker 3: rescort for it. 548 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 4: It's a kick return watch the ball get returned. 549 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 3: Okay, oh crap, you know about the FIBA black whatever. 550 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 3: I'm like, all right, you know, I'll get off there soon. 551 00:26:09,560 --> 00:26:13,119 Speaker 3: And then offense goes three out. Then they punted, and 552 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 3: then it was a punt return and and then it 553 00:26:16,240 --> 00:26:20,200 Speaker 3: was fourteen to seven, and and I remember I turned 554 00:26:20,200 --> 00:26:22,680 Speaker 3: to somebody, I said, this reminds you of my Brussel days, 555 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 3: Like this is a piton me of what it felt 556 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 3: like a couple of those times where you. 557 00:26:27,840 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 4: Would just try, like it was even. 558 00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 3: If the defense was playing great, you know, is it 559 00:26:31,520 --> 00:26:35,960 Speaker 3: something that would happen that was out of differ control, 560 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,199 Speaker 3: you know, and it's just like now you at a disadvantage. Uh. 561 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:42,119 Speaker 3: That was it was just it was. It was a 562 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:44,040 Speaker 3: fat game. It was a tough game. Credit to the 563 00:26:44,119 --> 00:26:47,080 Speaker 3: Jets that obviously before figuring out one's gonna way to win. 564 00:26:47,160 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 3: But that game just it just on the DNA put 565 00:26:50,480 --> 00:26:53,280 Speaker 3: on the defensive side of the ball. Like I've been 566 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,119 Speaker 3: sitting by thinking about it the last couple of days, 567 00:26:55,119 --> 00:27:00,600 Speaker 3: and I'm just more frustrated more because up that one 568 00:27:00,680 --> 00:27:03,000 Speaker 3: drive where they did score touchdown and obviously we can't 569 00:27:03,000 --> 00:27:05,960 Speaker 3: always be perfect, but on the defense side of the 570 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,600 Speaker 3: ball and defenses I've been a part of. We expect 571 00:27:08,680 --> 00:27:11,080 Speaker 3: to get those stops no matter who. We will hold 572 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 3: everybody the notes. So I would just say, if anything, 573 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 3: you know, we weren't perfect on defense, and that's kind 574 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: of what hurt us. But I just yeah, I was 575 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,040 Speaker 3: a crazy game all around, and I actually I've never 576 00:27:25,080 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 3: been a part of something like that. The two straight 577 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,480 Speaker 3: kick and one one kick and the one point return. 578 00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:32,000 Speaker 3: I've never seen anything like that before. 579 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:35,320 Speaker 1: It just sort like twist the momentum of things, like 580 00:27:35,320 --> 00:27:37,480 Speaker 1: to your point, like you're on the sideline expecting, okay, 581 00:27:37,520 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: we're going to go back in and then all right, 582 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,840 Speaker 1: well now it's tied, and then a couple of moments later, okay, 583 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:43,760 Speaker 1: now we're down fourteen to seven. You haven't even really 584 00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: stepped on the field. It's just a it's just a 585 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,359 Speaker 1: weird sort of dynamic. And then in all of that, 586 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 1: Justin Field's only a ten to eleven passes. 587 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: It's such a weird deal, man. 588 00:27:53,400 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: I mean, as a defender, and this is the last 589 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: one I have for you, is a defender when you're 590 00:27:58,000 --> 00:28:01,399 Speaker 1: playing a team like that. I mean again, Lamar Jackson's 591 00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 1: gonna tip more than eleven passes. I know he's a 592 00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:05,520 Speaker 1: mobile quarterback, but that's gotta be kind of weird. 593 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:13,200 Speaker 3: I just like the most frustrating part about it all 594 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:14,160 Speaker 3: is odd. 595 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,879 Speaker 4: We weren't surprised, Yeah, you know what. 596 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:20,359 Speaker 3: I mean, I was not surprised at all that they 597 00:28:20,400 --> 00:28:23,639 Speaker 3: refuse to throw the ball. It's just it's what happens 598 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:29,400 Speaker 3: to winning the teams that we played that are struggling 599 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 3: up front, is they just commit to running the ball, 600 00:28:31,720 --> 00:28:34,679 Speaker 3: and and that's you know, obviously they were struggling. They 601 00:28:34,680 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 3: believe they're struggling with quarterback play. But it was just 602 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 3: a weird game where it just seemed like where they 603 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 3: did not care whatever the down and distance was. They 604 00:28:44,160 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 3: were just going to run the ball with our los 605 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,040 Speaker 3: just you know, and they had to runing away and 606 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,400 Speaker 3: then play defense. And so it was just it was 607 00:28:51,440 --> 00:28:53,080 Speaker 3: a different game in general. 608 00:28:53,320 --> 00:28:56,680 Speaker 2: As that's the league, man, that is one thousand league. 609 00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 1: In fact, he completely in fifty four yards passing already 610 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,520 Speaker 1: two of it came on one play. So it's just 611 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 1: a weird, like I said, weird game. 612 00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:05,360 Speaker 2: And then that's play. 613 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:12,840 Speaker 3: Yeah it was one play and it had zero as Yes, 614 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 3: I know, man, that was a crazy That's what it was, 615 00:29:16,560 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 3: the craziest, like it just didn't make any sense. And 616 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:20,600 Speaker 3: I was just in there like all right, man, like 617 00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 3: you know it was. It was rarely any shots. I 618 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 3: didn't see you know what I mean, I didn't see 619 00:29:24,520 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: the ball in your throwne deep. It was. This is 620 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,480 Speaker 3: a different I've never been a part of a game 621 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,080 Speaker 3: like that, other than I told watched one you know 622 00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:36,000 Speaker 3: that was had COVID when when Phil and Kendall hidden 623 00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 3: were back there playing. That's the only time I can 624 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:41,680 Speaker 3: ever say, like I've seen something like that before. 625 00:29:42,600 --> 00:29:45,760 Speaker 2: Very very That's exactly kind of what it reminded you of, 626 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:47,360 Speaker 2: no doubt about it. Hey, Shelby, you the best. 627 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: I appreciate you, man, looking forward to a shouting with 628 00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 1: you next week luck this weekend against. 629 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:54,719 Speaker 2: Lamar and the Ravens. I appreciate it, all right, Shelby. 630 00:29:54,720 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 2: Harris always great. 631 00:29:57,280 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 1: I liked his insight there on division games and and 632 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 1: the Chiefs and I mean Broncos have a lot of 633 00:30:02,920 --> 00:30:06,080 Speaker 1: familiarity there. But the point about division games specifically, and 634 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:08,440 Speaker 1: we'll get rotten here in about ten minutes, I'm sure 635 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:10,840 Speaker 1: he'll say the same thing, like a little bit of a 636 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: different deal, and there's some bragging rights. There's different kind 637 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 1: of bragging rights because you're gonna see that team again, 638 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: and when you're the road team coming into the house 639 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: of an opponent division game, you have this mindset of 640 00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:26,280 Speaker 1: we're gonna steal this from them, and then you're gonna 641 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 1: see him again and you got to protect home field. 642 00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 1: But like I said, I think part of that plays 643 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 1: into why the Ravens are sorry the Raiders Broncos game 644 00:30:33,400 --> 00:30:35,080 Speaker 1: played out the way it did last Thursday. Well, this 645 00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: is a short week. Both teams are not putting together a 646 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: full game plan. I mean, those things happen to no excuses. 647 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:44,320 Speaker 1: Is just sort of an observation. So there's an interesting 648 00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: moment today and we're gonna have Rod Smith again in 649 00:30:46,160 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 1: a moment. 650 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,600 Speaker 2: Aaron Glenn kind of. 651 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:50,920 Speaker 1: Got a little snippy with the media up there in 652 00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:52,800 Speaker 1: New York when asked about injuries. 653 00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:53,840 Speaker 2: This is what it sounded like. 654 00:30:54,080 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 5: I'm going to pass on talking about the injuries the central. 655 00:30:59,560 --> 00:31:00,520 Speaker 3: Rich He's not here. 656 00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 5: He has all the answers, so you can, guys can 657 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 5: get all the injuries from Rich. 658 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:06,080 Speaker 3: So I go right into this air. 659 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: Game candidates, ir not something you want. 660 00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 3: To ask Rich. 661 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 5: Well, I'm telling you to that.

You know, you guys have 665 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 3: been here. 666 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 5: You guys have been hearing from me. But now since 667 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 5: we're just reporting stuff you know that I haven't said, 668 00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 5: then maybe you should ask you. 669 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:33,320 Speaker 3: Thanks everybody, seys. 670 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 2: Aaron Glynn, the head coach of the New York Chats. 671 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 1: I think that is unnecessarily salty with Rich Somni, who's 672 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 1: who reported that Garrett Wilson is going to be out 673 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:43,360 Speaker 1: for extended period of time, and I think he even 674 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 1: reported that he's probably gonna go on ir. So Aaron 675 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: Glenn gets up there and says, well, I'm not going 676 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 1: to give you any injury information because just ask Rich 677 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:54,479 Speaker 1: to many. Uh, he's he's got everything out there. Listen, you, 678 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: as the head coach kind of need to rise above 679 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:59,040 Speaker 1: all that I do. As much as it is a 680 00:31:59,040 --> 00:32:02,240 Speaker 1: bit of a grind and the fact that that Sean 681 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,800 Speaker 1: Payton doesn't want to report on any injuries, I also 682 00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,440 Speaker 1: appreciate that it's very cut and dry. It makes it 683 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 1: a little bit weird if the coach is going to 684 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: be very transparent about the injuries other than the practice report, 685 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 1: which comes out and is required by league. Outside of that, 686 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: it does kind of blur the lines a little bit 687 00:32:21,080 --> 00:32:25,080 Speaker 1: because whatever information you give, well you can you can 688 00:32:25,120 --> 00:32:28,280 Speaker 1: frame right. And so the practice report is very cut 689 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 1: and dry. It's just what it is. And so I 690 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 1: I want to hand you you want more information? I 691 00:32:32,760 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 1: think as a media member, you're we ask We ask 692 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,880 Speaker 1: Sean those questions, we pepper him, Hey, how significant is 693 00:32:39,880 --> 00:32:43,200 Speaker 1: the injury tomorrow with JK Dobbins. He's gonna get peppered 694 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: with questions about JK Dobbins because we don't know how 695 00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:50,600 Speaker 1: severe his foot injury is. But there isn't a competitive 696 00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:56,080 Speaker 1: advantage for Sean to be transparent there, so just don't 697 00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:00,560 Speaker 1: do it. So Aaron Gleane, I get it, maybe a 698 00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: little bit of frustration because maybe you didn't want that 699 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:03,280 Speaker 1: information out there. 700 00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:04,160 Speaker 2: Find your leak. 701 00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 1: Okay, that's probably thing number one is to do, is 702 00:33:08,520 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 1: like where wherever rich Semini is getting that information? And 703 00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:14,880 Speaker 1: then the other side of that is is it don't 704 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 1: take it out on the local media. I'm not saying 705 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 1: media are infallible, just it's not their fault. They're just 706 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: asking you questions because you have said a precedent as 707 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: a head coach that this is something that I'm gonna 708 00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,080 Speaker 1: be transparent on. And then all of a sudden you 709 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,040 Speaker 1: just have a day where you don't want to be that. Well, 710 00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: you've already kind of been that, so just stay consistent 711 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:37,719 Speaker 1: or annow let's just be very clear, announce that you're 712 00:33:37,720 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 1: just not gonna do it anymore. Guys from here and out, 713 00:33:41,360 --> 00:33:43,920 Speaker 1: other coaches around the league, including Sean Payton, do this. 714 00:33:44,720 --> 00:33:47,000 Speaker 1: You will see on the practice report what's going on 715 00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: with injuries. Boom, that's it. Rod Smith joins us in 716 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:51,880 Speaker 1: studio next
