1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,360
Speaker 1: Coming up on the Booth Review, We're going to recap

2
00:00:02,400 --> 00:00:03,960
Speaker 1: the latest loss to Philadelphia.

3
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 2: It felt like a microcosm for the season. Injuries, all

4
00:00:06,680 --> 00:00:07,920
Speaker 2: this stuff, all this adversity.

5
00:00:07,960 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 3: Man tough deal, and we're looking ahead to the Christmas

6
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:14,800
Speaker 3: Day matchup against the hated Dallas Cowboys with Santa Fletch.

7
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 4: That's coming up next.

8
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,360
Speaker 1: Welcome into the latest edition of the Booth Review podcast.

9
00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:24,000
Speaker 1: I'm Bram Weinstein with London Fletcher and Logan Paulson. Were

10
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: brought to you by Microsoft Surface Copilot plus PC. We

11
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: are in the Big Bear AI Command Center studio. Happy Early,

12
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:34,680
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas. That's the unusual week where we get to

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: play Dallas on Christmas Day at home. I think both

14
00:00:37,800 --> 00:00:39,839
Speaker 1: sides wish the records were a little bit different. I

15
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:41,680
Speaker 1: think the NFL had wish the records were a little

16
00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 1: bit different. But it's still really cool. Arch Rivals Christmas

17
00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: Day Northwest Stadium.

18
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:46,120
Speaker 4: It's going to be really amazing.

19
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's nothing like playing the Dallas Cowboys and also

20
00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:54,160
Speaker 3: the opportunity to play on Christmas Day. I don't think

21
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 3: either team will have any problems getting up for this game.

22
00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 4: Regardless of the record. We want to win another ball game.

23
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: I know both teams are eliminated from the playoffs, but man,

24
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:07,400
Speaker 3: it's just something about when these two teams get together. Yeah,

25
00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:12,919
Speaker 3: there's a respectful or professional hatred for the Dallas Cowboys,

26
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,560
Speaker 3: and we need to win this football game to split

27
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 3: the season series with them.

28
00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:18,520
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, I totally agree.

29
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: And a lot of adversity for the Commanders obviously in

30
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:22,960
Speaker 2: this one, with injuries and stuff, which we'll get into.

31
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's always it's ever hard to get up

32
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: for Cowboys game, right, and especially that it's like a

33
00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:28,240
Speaker 2: national game.

34
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,000
Speaker 5: Everyone's gonna be watching. It'll be a lot of fun.

35
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 4: All right, let's review.

36
00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: We'll get a little bit into the Dallas game in

37
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,679
Speaker 1: a little bit, but let's get back to the Eagles game,

38
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,720
Speaker 1: which happened on Saturday night at Northwest Stadium. And I

39
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: liked how you use professional and respect now, because I'm

40
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: not totally sure that both of those would have applied

41
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:45,120
Speaker 1: to this. But we'll just leave it at that, right,

42
00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,480
Speaker 1: Like this is an age old rival. They did what

43
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: they did at the end of the game, whatever, Like

44
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 1: why don't we just talk about what happened in this

45
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: throughout the course of it and in the first half,

46
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: Washington was able to limit Philadelphia in a number of

47
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: different ways, caught a couple of breaks with a couple

48
00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: of miss goals, but found themselves in a ball game

49
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 1: with the team that had been struggling to kind of

50
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:06,240
Speaker 1: move the ball as effectively as they had a year

51
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: ago when they got to the Super Bowl, and then

52
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,400
Speaker 1: the second half things turned, and for you, it's been

53
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 1: like this has been our season, right yeah?

54
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean for me, like I said this on

55
00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 2: the post game, it's been a microcosm of the season.

56
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 2: And what I mean by that is, I think it

57
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 2: kind of you come in with all this optimism, all

58
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: this hope, like people playing well, people are healthy, and

59
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,720
Speaker 2: then obviously, like the second half of this ball game,

60
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 2: in my opinion, is derailed by injuries. You know, kind

61
00:02:27,080 --> 00:02:29,240
Speaker 2: of like the season and again you just can't catch

62
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,360
Speaker 2: a break. The backup quarterbacks in you're moving people around

63
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 2: on the offensive line, and you just see kind of

64
00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,040
Speaker 2: when the talent starts to deteriorate, you can't hang and

65
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:39,120
Speaker 2: so you know, be Mitch and Tana and I were

66
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 2: talking and it's like, man, you know, like everyone says,

67
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 2: like this is the litmus Tess game because this is

68
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 2: the team that won the division. And I came out

69
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,800
Speaker 2: of the first half specifically being like, it doesn't feel

70
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: like we're that far off, you know what I mean,

71
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 2: Like when we're when the commanders are healthy, when they're healthy,

72
00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:54,720
Speaker 2: and we're executing the way we can execute. Like obviously

73
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,200
Speaker 2: there's things like we need more pass rush, maybe another corner,

74
00:02:57,320 --> 00:02:59,880
Speaker 2: more playmakers, whatever it is, but there's not It's not like,

75
00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,959
Speaker 2: oh my gosh, they're in like a different stratosphere of

76
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: the way that you know, like obviously we were banging

77
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,640
Speaker 2: up earlier in the season. It felt like so to me,

78
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: it was, yeah, just a perfect microcosm like everything, like

79
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 2: when everything's healthy, everyone's good, it's a good product. When

80
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:15,200
Speaker 2: there's injuries, we just can't whether that storm and it yeah, tough.

81
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,560
Speaker 3: Now when you when you look at that first half

82
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,200
Speaker 3: of the game, obviously he starts off with the kickoff

83
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 3: forced fumble by Quant Kwan by Mikey Sanders, Steel presents

84
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 3: our offense in great field position. Would have loved to

85
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 3: get a touchdown out of that off that turnover, but

86
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:34,280
Speaker 3: ended up with three points. And you saw in the

87
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:38,040
Speaker 3: first half man Mary Olda's the offense is efficient the

88
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,800
Speaker 3: run game, I thought was impactful and that was something

89
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,520
Speaker 3: that we needed to have going and working for us

90
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 3: in that ball game. Thought the running backs were our

91
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:49,000
Speaker 3: standing in the first half, as you mentioned, catching a

92
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,560
Speaker 3: couple of breaks with their with their kick or missing

93
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 3: with a three.

94
00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: Field goals miss two officially missed three, but they got

95
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: it finally on one and missed the second one.

96
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 4: Benefited from that and defense.

97
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 3: I think it was a big stop if I'm not mistaken.

98
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:06,920
Speaker 3: Second half or maybe it was Mikey or somebody had

99
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,680
Speaker 3: a nice, nice PBu and then.

100
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:11,240
Speaker 4: The second half, we're getting the ball.

101
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 3: It's second half, like okay, And then as you mentioned Logan,

102
00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:18,320
Speaker 3: things kind of went downhill once Mariota got injured.

103
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, because I mean even coming out a halftime they

104
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:22,240
Speaker 2: had that explosive play to trailing birds to kind of

105
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 2: spark them off. You're like, okay, here we go. And

106
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,120
Speaker 2: then I think it was on that series, Mariota goes

107
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 2: out with the quad hand concussion scenario, and it.

108
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:33,000
Speaker 3: Didn't seem like like when he went to the to

109
00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 3: the tent, it's like what happened. Yeah, nothing was obvious

110
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 3: to us in terms of what happened to him.

111
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 2: Well, you know, like I get to stand by and

112
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 2: they do like the medical EVL on the screen and

113
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: like they're looking at his head hitting the turf and

114
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 2: is and I think it was two plays before when

115
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 2: he was running out of bounds he like kind of

116
00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,440
Speaker 2: aggravated because so they had a lot of stuff going

117
00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,800
Speaker 2: on in the moment. But yeah, it's just was tough, man.

118
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 2: And I think it also makes you appreciate, at least

119
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 2: me anyway, like the value of Marcus to the team

120
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 2: this season. And now, like you know, Jayden is obviously

121
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 2: you know the guy, but Marcus is like, you know,

122
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: one B in terms of how effective he's been keeping

123
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:08,040
Speaker 2: the offense on schedule.

124
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's so interesting. I was thinking back

125
00:05:10,120 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 1: to the Kansas City game. Here are the two teams

126
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:13,240
Speaker 1: that were in the Super Bowl a year ago. Obviously

127
00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:15,120
Speaker 1: Can't City hasn't had the season that they won either,

128
00:05:15,400 --> 00:05:16,480
Speaker 1: but here are the two teams that are in the

129
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,200
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, And it was very similar games. Like the

130
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: game plan worked to keep them alive even amid all

131
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: the injuries. They have half their roster at times, and

132
00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:27,640
Speaker 1: certain either whether defense or offense at times, they kept

133
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,120
Speaker 1: the game close. They got to halftime, it's a one

134
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,359
Speaker 1: score game, and that's when things kind of started to

135
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 1: change in the second half. And so I think, you know,

136
00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:36,640
Speaker 1: we were talking about this on the broadcast, and I

137
00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 1: think this is something that we're a couple of weeks

138
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 1: away from, but we're gonna have a lot of discussions

139
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: about these are the teams you compare yourself to. That's

140
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:44,520
Speaker 1: the team that's won the division two years in a row,

141
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:46,680
Speaker 1: first team to do that in twenty years. That's the

142
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,400
Speaker 1: team that won the Super Bowl a year ago. And

143
00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: the entire offseason was mainly about managing expectations that the

144
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,880
Speaker 1: Commanders would have after being twelve and five, and did

145
00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:57,520
Speaker 1: they bridge the gap with Philadelphia, the team that they

146
00:05:57,520 --> 00:05:59,040
Speaker 1: have to chase and catch if they want to get

147
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:00,680
Speaker 1: where they want to get to. I think we're going

148
00:06:00,760 --> 00:06:02,719
Speaker 1: to have that again as we look at this. And

149
00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:06,200
Speaker 1: yet at the same time, it's like an incomplete conversation.

150
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,120
Speaker 1: We never saw our offense together at any point in time.

151
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:12,360
Speaker 1: And again, like to your point, to your point, like

152
00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: they figured out ways to be effective with what they've had.

153
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 1: The run game was working early, the defense was able

154
00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:23,039
Speaker 1: to limit them enough, they got enough fortuitous moments on

155
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:25,159
Speaker 1: special teams one they caused in a couple of nice

156
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:27,359
Speaker 1: misses and suddenly they were kind of in these games.

157
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 1: And to your point, it doesn't feel like they're that

158
00:06:29,240 --> 00:06:32,440
Speaker 1: far away, but they are. And so I think we're

159
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,400
Speaker 1: just kind of like we're going to toggle between that,

160
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:36,119
Speaker 1: you know, for the next six to eight months.

161
00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:38,000
Speaker 4: Really, as you look.

162
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,479
Speaker 3: At that game, when I think about third downs, was

163
00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 3: a big difference in that game. We we end up

164
00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:46,200
Speaker 3: in too many third and long situations and some of

165
00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:51,440
Speaker 3: those were self inflicted wounds, penalties, things like that, where

166
00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 3: we just we weren't staying ahead of the chains. And

167
00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 3: going against Philly and Big Fangio on the way he

168
00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,600
Speaker 3: operates that defense, you don't want to have a lot

169
00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 3: of third and long situations. I guess them because they

170
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 3: got some pass rushers that can get out to the

171
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:09,440
Speaker 3: quarterback and the covered structure that they have, it's a difficult,

172
00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 3: difficult cover structure to kind of figure out and to

173
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,720
Speaker 3: make plays against them. And then conversely, defensively, we allowed

174
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:22,000
Speaker 3: Jalen Hurts to convert some third down situation with its legs,

175
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 3: we'd get them in in situation he's able to the

176
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:28,080
Speaker 3: one touchdown we had him third and fifteen the touchdown team?

177
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:31,720
Speaker 3: Was it to Goddard? Yeah, I think it was Dallas Goddard.

178
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:36,800
Speaker 3: He steps up in the pocket third fifteen touchdown, you know,

179
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 3: and it's because just being able to step up in

180
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 3: the pocket, big lane between the defensive end of the

181
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:46,760
Speaker 3: defensive tackle, and then there were a number of occasions

182
00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:49,400
Speaker 3: where he was able to escape out of the pocket,

183
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 3: either pick up legs, pick up the first down with

184
00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: his legs, or by time find out with receivers. So

185
00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 3: when you look at that, it's like, man, the third downs,

186
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,560
Speaker 3: I think was the was the main your issue in

187
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:03,920
Speaker 3: that ball game, us being a too many third down

188
00:08:04,080 --> 00:08:07,560
Speaker 3: third and lungs and conversely us allowing them to convert

189
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 3: some third downs, especially with hers and his legs.

190
00:08:10,080 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean I think that's maybe maybe Again,

191
00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,360
Speaker 2: why this game feels like such a microcosmo of the

192
00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:18,320
Speaker 2: season is without explosive plays from special teams, exposive plays

193
00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:20,720
Speaker 2: on defense and efficiency on offense.

194
00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:22,800
Speaker 5: So you really have to play like a perfect game.

195
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, you kind of need, like the phrase means is

196
00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:27,680
Speaker 2: perfect game flow, right, You kind of need to be

197
00:08:27,680 --> 00:08:29,480
Speaker 2: ahead of the sticks. You'll be able to get some

198
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 2: of these other explosive opportunities from elsewhere because the offense

199
00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 2: can't always sustain it. You need to play complimentary football.

200
00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,280
Speaker 2: Defense needs to get off on third down. Offense seats

201
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,720
Speaker 2: to stay on the field for long, extended drives, and

202
00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,360
Speaker 2: like that was the formula last year and again for

203
00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,000
Speaker 2: a myriad of reasons, they've been able to do that

204
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,720
Speaker 2: this year, and I think that's why again this game,

205
00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,560
Speaker 2: to me, shows some of the warts, some of the

206
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: areas for improvement, but also shows that you can if

207
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 2: you are if you can manage that game flow like

208
00:08:53,280 --> 00:08:55,760
Speaker 2: you're talking about Fletch, you can be in any football game.

209
00:08:55,800 --> 00:08:56,079
Speaker 4: Really.

210
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 1: So take me through defense a little bit and how

211
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:02,679
Speaker 1: you're thinking about her Aj Brown, DeVante Smith, Saquon Barkley,

212
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:06,360
Speaker 1: their line, Goddard's strong group. Their metrics are way down

213
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:08,560
Speaker 1: this year. However, we're missing a lot of key parts

214
00:09:09,120 --> 00:09:12,520
Speaker 1: and we're rushing three maybe four, we're not getting home

215
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 1: hurts his finding room. How are how do you think

216
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: dan Quinn is thinking about how do we utilize this

217
00:09:17,320 --> 00:09:19,720
Speaker 1: to try to limit the big plays against us?

218
00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 4: And that was it.

219
00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 3: You didn't see a lot of five or six man

220
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 3: pressures because when you do that, this is gonna end

221
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 3: up a lot of one on one coverages on the

222
00:09:29,080 --> 00:09:31,160
Speaker 3: outside with those receivers, and he mentioned it in his

223
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:35,120
Speaker 3: press conference. Those are two big play wide receivers. And

224
00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,320
Speaker 3: when you're gonna, if you're gonna play man, if you're

225
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:40,839
Speaker 3: gonna bring pressure, that exposes you to some man and

226
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:44,599
Speaker 3: man coverage against these receivers. And and especially with the

227
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 3: with AJ Brown because of his big body, you gotta

228
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,120
Speaker 3: be at to tackle too if you're gonna if you're

229
00:09:51,120 --> 00:09:53,560
Speaker 3: gonna have one on one against Jaylen Hurt. I mean

230
00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 3: against a J. Brown, you saw a lot of hitches

231
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,600
Speaker 3: that he was getting because we're playing off coverage. We're

232
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 3: saying we're not gonna allow him to get deep on us.

233
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 3: But you know they you can't have Hurts also be

234
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 3: able to run with the first downs. And then one

235
00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:10,960
Speaker 3: thing I thought that their offensive coordinated did a great job

236
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,720
Speaker 3: of is going to that empty formation. They spread us out.

237
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:17,600
Speaker 3: They had three three by two three receiver. They had

238
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 3: speed at speed at the number three position. So you

239
00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 3: getting a J. Brown against a linebacker and then if

240
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,040
Speaker 3: and then also you got two receivers here. We played

241
00:10:27,280 --> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 3: we played some cover two quarters as well, not Cover two. Yeah,

242
00:10:31,960 --> 00:10:35,800
Speaker 3: cover two quarters and then also there was a man

243
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:39,160
Speaker 3: and man situation, so DQ was trying to mix it up,

244
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:42,160
Speaker 3: and but Philly had it going in that in that

245
00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 3: formation against our defense.

246
00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:45,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think the thing that you know, like

247
00:10:46,120 --> 00:10:48,679
Speaker 2: with Dan specifically, is he's kind of kind of Jerry

248
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,040
Speaker 2: rigging stuff together at times, right, So, like I think

249
00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 2: on the first third and seven we broke that down

250
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,360
Speaker 2: on Coaches Show. They did a great job kind of

251
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 2: showing man coverage then getting the cover two first puts

252
00:10:58,559 --> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 2: the ball out, you make a tackle right when you

253
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:02,559
Speaker 2: get in the empty all of a sudden, those disguises

254
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 2: which have been so helpful throughout the game, you can't

255
00:11:04,760 --> 00:11:07,280
Speaker 2: disguise the same way. So actually it's obviously man, it's

256
00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 2: obviously two, it's obviously quarters. And I feel like Hurt's

257
00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:12,120
Speaker 2: kind of got really comfortable in those sets, and I

258
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:14,160
Speaker 2: was actually kind of surprised they didn't get back into it.

259
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 5: More after that long drive that they had.

260
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,240
Speaker 2: But it just when you I think the thing you've

261
00:11:19,280 --> 00:11:21,280
Speaker 2: said this every week, and it's just you know, kind

262
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:23,520
Speaker 2: of beat the dead horse here. When you can't rush

263
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:26,280
Speaker 2: with four and when you can't create pressure like this

264
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 2: is the type of game you're in when you're in

265
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:31,400
Speaker 2: a lot of coverage situations, you're rallying the tackle, you're

266
00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:35,240
Speaker 2: kind of hoping for that penalty or you know, drop

267
00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,040
Speaker 2: pass to kind of get you in a second and

268
00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: long third long situations? Can you capitalize it? And I

269
00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:42,679
Speaker 2: think they did a decent job of capitalizing on it

270
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,840
Speaker 2: in the first half. And then I personally believe this

271
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 2: like in the second half, like the office just didn't

272
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,720
Speaker 2: hold up there out of the bargain right, the defenses

273
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:50,920
Speaker 2: on the field way too much.

274
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 5: You have a bunch of three and outs.

275
00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:53,920
Speaker 2: I think it's like three to three and outs consecutively

276
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,000
Speaker 2: have an interception, Like that's just a non tenable situation

277
00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,959
Speaker 2: for the current personnel of the defensive rows.

278
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 5: So I think that's where you get that.

279
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,880
Speaker 3: I'll say this too, brown Man, I think probably going

280
00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 3: into that game, and it's kind of been the philosophy

281
00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:12,640
Speaker 3: since DQ has started taking over calling the plays on defense.

282
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:15,840
Speaker 3: That's been on break, Hey, we'll give up yards between

283
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:17,959
Speaker 3: the twenties, but when we get in the red zone,

284
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 3: let's played great red zone defense, fortunate to kick field

285
00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:25,199
Speaker 3: goals and you know, hopefully our offense is going touchdowns

286
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:28,920
Speaker 3: when they get getting those red zone situations and for

287
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,280
Speaker 3: I don't know know what we finished Philly as far

288
00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,800
Speaker 3: as what Philly finished in the red zone areas, but

289
00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,640
Speaker 3: they were getting touchdowns and we were not holding them

290
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 3: to field goals in the red area.

291
00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 1: The killer player was the Goddard touchdown that was a

292
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:44,400
Speaker 1: third and goal from the fifteen. Yes, so that's the

293
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 1: one I think that they're going to look at and say,

294
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:47,959
Speaker 1: that's the one where they missed on. He made a

295
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,760
Speaker 1: very nice catch in a contested situation. But still that

296
00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 1: was a very very difficult one to swallow because to

297
00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 1: your point of we almost need to play a perfect game,

298
00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 1: we can't. We got to if they get down there,

299
00:12:58,440 --> 00:13:00,360
Speaker 1: we got to keep them to three. That's the one

300
00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,240
Speaker 1: that I think they gets. Yeah, I thought we could

301
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:06,000
Speaker 1: have did better. We could have played coverage a little

302
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:09,040
Speaker 1: bit better. Not quant I think there's a I.

303
00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,440
Speaker 3: Want to say it was a cover two structure on that.

304
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:14,719
Speaker 3: If we can sync back a little bit better as

305
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 3: the corner and Kwan he's he has to stay inside

306
00:13:17,520 --> 00:13:20,280
Speaker 3: leverage on that, so we can force him to if

307
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,400
Speaker 3: he's gonna try to fit that into that window, Hey,

308
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 3: he might not like it. Some force him throw the

309
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,959
Speaker 3: check down, we rally make the tackle, they kick a

310
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 3: field goal. So I'm sure as a defensive staff and players,

311
00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:34,880
Speaker 3: they looked at that play and say, man, we could

312
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 3: have played that, played that better.

313
00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,040
Speaker 4: And it's not not on I'm not on, not on

314
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 4: quand just how we.

315
00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 3: Can fit that just with that on that from the

316
00:13:42,200 --> 00:13:44,720
Speaker 3: corner and the safety, just playing that deep the short

317
00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:45,920
Speaker 3: is how we call that.

318
00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: Let me steal the defense just for a month and

319
00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:51,720
Speaker 1: profile one player, Bobby Wagner, who we're hoping here by

320
00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 1: the end of the year. He needs fifteen tackles to

321
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,440
Speaker 1: get to two thousand. Only you and ray Lewis have

322
00:13:55,480 --> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 1: ever gotten to that mark in their careers. Bobby cannot

323
00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,040
Speaker 1: catch you. You for second place this year, you'd have

324
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 1: to have like eighty tackles to do that. That's not

325
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,839
Speaker 1: going to happen this year. But fifteen is very manageable

326
00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: over the last couple of games he's able to play.

327
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,640
Speaker 1: Fifteen would be a lot on Thursday, but it would

328
00:14:11,679 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: be manageable to get through to the end of the game. Yeah,

329
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,960
Speaker 1: well a couple of weeks ago, yes, but it would

330
00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:18,920
Speaker 1: be a lot. But we're hoping that by the end

331
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 1: of the year he does this. I just we'll probably

332
00:14:22,120 --> 00:14:24,080
Speaker 1: revisit this next week, but I wonder what your thoughts

333
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,720
Speaker 1: are of someone joining a club that only you and

334
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: one other are in.

335
00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's just a testament to him as a football player.

336
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,880
Speaker 3: When you look at the end of the NFL and

337
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,160
Speaker 3: the history of the NFL over one hundred years old,

338
00:14:36,720 --> 00:14:40,240
Speaker 3: and I know they didn't start tracking tackles until what

339
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 3: maybe the early eighties or whatever the case may be,

340
00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:45,440
Speaker 3: But since then, you're still talking about what forty years

341
00:14:45,560 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 3: or so that only three players in the history, two

342
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:53,560
Speaker 3: players have some eclipse of two thousand mark tackle, you

343
00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,000
Speaker 3: know Mark, And then how now we got Bobby on

344
00:14:56,080 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 3: the cusp of doing that. It's just dability, product ativity, preparation,

345
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:05,000
Speaker 3: all the things that it requires to to be at

346
00:15:05,040 --> 00:15:08,680
Speaker 3: a perform in that in that manner. So it's I'm

347
00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 3: looking forward to the to the time when I can

348
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:15,760
Speaker 3: welcome him into that two thousand club, two thousand tackle club.

349
00:15:15,800 --> 00:15:19,000
Speaker 3: And you know, Bobby's Bobby's been an ultimate professional.

350
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:20,040
Speaker 5: A little bit then to get.

351
00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, absolutely absolutely.

352
00:15:22,640 --> 00:15:25,880
Speaker 3: I mean he's a he's a What I love about

353
00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 3: Bobby is and I've shared this back in twenty nineteen,

354
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,720
Speaker 3: he reached out to me via social media just hey,

355
00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:36,680
Speaker 3: I want to you know, can you share some things

356
00:15:36,720 --> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 3: with me? And the respect that he has for the

357
00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,240
Speaker 3: players who played the position for him before him and

358
00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 3: for him to reach out. I know he's reached out

359
00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,160
Speaker 3: with Ray myself and some of the other guys, like,

360
00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 3: you know, what are some of the things you've done

361
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 3: to play at that level or did to play at

362
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 3: that level?

363
00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:55,320
Speaker 4: What are some of the training methods you do? All

364
00:15:55,360 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 4: those types of things.

365
00:15:56,040 --> 00:16:00,000
Speaker 3: So I can I appreciate him having that that reverence

366
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:02,520
Speaker 3: four players who've done it before him. So no, I'm

367
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:05,200
Speaker 3: absolutely rooted for him to join that club.

368
00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:06,480
Speaker 5: No, I mean it's really cool though.

369
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:08,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's really really cool that he's as close

370
00:16:08,520 --> 00:16:09,960
Speaker 2: And I also think it's cool that he's playing as

371
00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:12,000
Speaker 2: hard as he is last couple of weeks. Like you know,

372
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,440
Speaker 2: there's not like a whole lot on the line for him,

373
00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 2: but like you can see the pride, you can see

374
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:16,680
Speaker 2: the competitiveness.

375
00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:17,720
Speaker 5: It's pretty cool, I think.

376
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:19,440
Speaker 1: You know, I think across the league too, you'll see this,

377
00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: Like the Raiders didn't lay down for the Texans, Yes,

378
00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:24,480
Speaker 1: the Browns didn't lay down for the Bills yesterday and

379
00:16:24,480 --> 00:16:26,640
Speaker 1: they both lost, but they lost in very close games

380
00:16:26,640 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 1: that could have gone either way. The Saints have been

381
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 1: winning here late in the season, so I think you

382
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,200
Speaker 1: see the pride around the league, and I think you're

383
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,320
Speaker 1: going to see pride from two teams on Thursday as well,

384
00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:37,560
Speaker 1: even though the seasons didn't go.

385
00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:38,840
Speaker 4: Their way they wanted it to.

386
00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:41,760
Speaker 1: What concerns me about Thursday is how much more healthy

387
00:16:41,840 --> 00:16:45,480
Speaker 1: Dallas is than Washington, specifically at the quarterback position. So

388
00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: there's a concern there. But like if you're wondering about,

389
00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: like where is everybody's head, where do they go? Go

390
00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,960
Speaker 1: watch a guy like Bobby Wagner play and it's still met.

391
00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:56,400
Speaker 1: Go watch Terry play the other day. Go watch these

392
00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,240
Speaker 1: guys play, and you'll see the desire to keep playing

393
00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,240
Speaker 1: no matter what, regardless of what the record is.

394
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,440
Speaker 3: I don't look at I haven't looked at our team

395
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:05,920
Speaker 3: in any ball game.

396
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:09,360
Speaker 4: It felt like, man, this team has quit. That's that's there.

397
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,960
Speaker 3: At no point during this season, during that whether it

398
00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,160
Speaker 3: was the eight game losing streak, During that game losing streak,

399
00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,439
Speaker 3: what you look like, Man, these guys have quit that.

400
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 3: I just haven't seen him and that's a testament to him,

401
00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,159
Speaker 3: to the guys they've brought into into this, onto this

402
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:27,840
Speaker 3: football team, the coaches, the personnel department, who all the

403
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,959
Speaker 3: guys they brought into this, this this building the culture,

404
00:17:31,560 --> 00:17:34,080
Speaker 3: because very easily there can be some guys like, oh man,

405
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 3: you know this season has lost some hanging up even

406
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 3: even look at look at Jaden, who's you know, he's

407
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:42,239
Speaker 3: had a bunch of injuries. And when they tell him, hey,

408
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 3: we're gonna shut you down for the year, like he's

409
00:17:44,680 --> 00:17:48,400
Speaker 3: disappointed because he wants to play football. I don't care

410
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,159
Speaker 3: what our record is. I want to go out and

411
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:52,040
Speaker 3: play football. I want to be out there with my brothers.

412
00:17:52,440 --> 00:17:54,080
Speaker 3: I love the game. You only get so many of

413
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,359
Speaker 3: these throughout the course of your lifetime. And you you

414
00:17:57,400 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 3: want to play, and you want to you want to

415
00:17:59,280 --> 00:18:02,080
Speaker 3: autograph your work every single time you step between those lines.

416
00:18:02,119 --> 00:18:02,359
Speaker 4: Logo.

417
00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:04,199
Speaker 5: No. I think that's a one hundred percent right.

418
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,120
Speaker 2: And I think the thing is, like, you know, I've

419
00:18:06,160 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 2: been I've been on some bad teams, bad records. I've

420
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:11,040
Speaker 2: said that before in the show. And there's a difference

421
00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:15,439
Speaker 2: between playing hard and playing like with the brotherhood and connection.

422
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:17,240
Speaker 2: I think like that's what you're seeing here is that

423
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 2: brotherhood and connection because like you know, like I remember

424
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:22,800
Speaker 2: in Uh, I forget, it was like a Chicago in.

425
00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 5: Twenty sixty and everone's gonna get fired.

426
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 2: It was kind of getna get blown up, and you know,

427
00:18:27,320 --> 00:18:30,080
Speaker 2: like it's like I'm worried about me playing well, and

428
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:31,120
Speaker 2: don't you know, like.

429
00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,439
Speaker 3: The coach, you can tell the coaches are yeah, looking up.

430
00:18:33,440 --> 00:18:35,520
Speaker 3: They might have be on the phone calling, they trying

431
00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:37,280
Speaker 3: to set up a job, you know, because they know

432
00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:38,360
Speaker 3: they're going to be looking yeah.

433
00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,119
Speaker 2: And again like when you watch, when you watch this

434
00:18:40,160 --> 00:18:41,960
Speaker 2: team play, like I don't really feel that, you know,

435
00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:43,880
Speaker 2: when I'm walking the sideline, I don't feel that it's

436
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 2: like we're together, We're in this.

437
00:18:45,040 --> 00:18:46,000
Speaker 5: We turn to win the ball game.

438
00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:48,199
Speaker 2: And I think that's that's again a testament to Dan

439
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 2: and a testament to Adam. Like you said, the person tell

440
00:18:49,880 --> 00:18:51,840
Speaker 2: they brought in so it's it's cool. And again this

441
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,960
Speaker 2: is an ideal, but I think it shows you the

442
00:18:54,080 --> 00:18:56,359
Speaker 2: value of something like that in situations like that.

443
00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:58,760
Speaker 1: I think before there was a salary cap, before there

444
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:01,880
Speaker 1: was free agency, before or there was all these analytics,

445
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,320
Speaker 1: there were good teams and bad teams in the NFL.

446
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:07,280
Speaker 1: It's not the case anymore. I mean, the difference between

447
00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:08,879
Speaker 1: a good team and a bad team in the NFL

448
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 1: is so slim. And this team had everything go wrong

449
00:19:11,480 --> 00:19:13,960
Speaker 1: that possibly could have gone wrong, or their record would

450
00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: be very different than what it is. And this is

451
00:19:16,400 --> 00:19:18,760
Speaker 1: what happens year to year, and it can happen to anybody.

452
00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: I don't believe there's a bad team in the NFL anymore.

453
00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:24,920
Speaker 1: Is a very slim margin between there might be great

454
00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: teams and there might be good teams, but bad teams,

455
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:27,880
Speaker 1: oh no.

456
00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:32,280
Speaker 4: The Raters pretty bad, man, Okay, bad is pretty bad.

457
00:19:32,359 --> 00:19:34,919
Speaker 1: But yet, and then watch if they go get a

458
00:19:34,960 --> 00:19:37,600
Speaker 1: new quarterback with the number one, because there's the game

459
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,600
Speaker 1: this weekend between the Giants of the Raiders is going

460
00:19:39,640 --> 00:19:41,359
Speaker 1: to be for the first overall pick. The loser is

461
00:19:41,359 --> 00:19:43,280
Speaker 1: gonna get the first overall pick. So they're gonna have

462
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 1: a quarterback next year with Ashton gent Y. And if

463
00:19:45,800 --> 00:19:48,119
Speaker 1: they lose with Astra Genty and Brock Bowers and all

464
00:19:48,119 --> 00:19:50,359
Speaker 1: of a sudden, depending on how that quarterback is, you

465
00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 1: may not think they're so bad anymore. Overnight, right overnight,

466
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:53,840
Speaker 1: that could happen.

467
00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:55,600
Speaker 2: I think I think The Raiders are obviously a tough

468
00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,320
Speaker 2: example because they're offensive and defensive lines like need a

469
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:00,639
Speaker 2: lot of work, and like that's usually to me the

470
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 2: better indicator of bad football teams. Like obviously quarterbacks important,

471
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:06,159
Speaker 2: but I guess opposed to skill position guys. But I

472
00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,800
Speaker 2: do agree with you generally, like the parody this year,

473
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:10,080
Speaker 2: Like I think it's so hard this year to be

474
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 2: like who's the best team in the NFL, Like it's

475
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:16,120
Speaker 2: really hard to give a definitive answer because of the parody,

476
00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 2: because like, these team's good, this team beats this team,

477
00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:22,199
Speaker 2: Like it's more matchup driven than ever, and again, like

478
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:24,520
Speaker 2: it's so easy for teams to bounce back and do

479
00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 2: different things and play well. So it's it's I think

480
00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:29,879
Speaker 2: it's like kind of the golden age of football right now,

481
00:20:29,920 --> 00:20:32,200
Speaker 2: because defenses are playing better, offenses are playing better.

482
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,720
Speaker 1: I mean, think about who's not going to be in

483
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:36,240
Speaker 1: the playoffs this year. The Chiefs are not gonna be

484
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:38,159
Speaker 1: in the playoffs this year. Detroit is looking like they

485
00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: might not be in the playoffs this year. Tampa's in

486
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: trouble to not make the playoffs. The Ravens are in

487
00:20:42,280 --> 00:20:44,640
Speaker 1: real trouble not make the playoffs. They're not bad. None

488
00:20:44,680 --> 00:20:46,840
Speaker 1: of them are bad football. None of them would you

489
00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:48,480
Speaker 1: qualify as bad football teams.

490
00:20:48,520 --> 00:20:51,920
Speaker 3: No, No, not at all, not at all. I mean

491
00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:55,560
Speaker 3: Kassas City, like, that's a given. You got you you

492
00:20:55,560 --> 00:20:58,439
Speaker 3: have Patrick Mahomes as your quarterbacks. Yeah, he's good for

493
00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:03,520
Speaker 3: ten withs just by him self. And their defense typically historically,

494
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 3: they've always been one of the best, better defenses in

495
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,560
Speaker 3: the league and for whatever reason, it just hasn't worked

496
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,440
Speaker 3: out for them. And then they just lost some homes.

497
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:14,800
Speaker 3: But even before he got injured, they were.

498
00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:17,000
Speaker 4: On the custs the division.

499
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:21,400
Speaker 3: No, not at all. Baltimore is interesting to me just watching.

500
00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,480
Speaker 3: I mean Lamar got injured again, he's been banged up,

501
00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:28,960
Speaker 3: hasn't been fully healthy. Their defense, especially the past defense

502
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,000
Speaker 3: we're talking about the Ravens. Then if you say, what's

503
00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:34,879
Speaker 3: the what's the blood, what's the in the DNA of

504
00:21:34,880 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 3: a raven It's always been their defense. I think ray

505
00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:42,120
Speaker 3: Lewis and all the all the dominant defense they had.

506
00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:43,399
Speaker 4: Yeah, they they.

507
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,320
Speaker 3: Imposed their will on you as a as a defense.

508
00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:49,359
Speaker 3: And then you look and you see what New England

509
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 3: was able to go in there and do, and it's like, man,

510
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,520
Speaker 3: this this is the Baltimore Ravens we're talking about.

511
00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:54,880
Speaker 4: Yep.

512
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:56,800
Speaker 1: I mean to the point of, like there's no bad

513
00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:58,400
Speaker 1: good look at New England one year to the next.

514
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:00,879
Speaker 1: They changed their coach, their made it his second year.

515
00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:02,920
Speaker 1: They're gonna get the one seat now, like they went

516
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,320
Speaker 1: from where they were picking a year ago.

517
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 4: Got some Friday they had a Denver now because Denver lost. Yeah,

518
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 4: they both got the same record, but don't have.

519
00:22:11,480 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: To see Yeah, okay, yeah, all right, let's get back

520
00:22:13,440 --> 00:22:15,160
Speaker 1: to our game. Let's get into the offense a little bit.

521
00:22:15,480 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 1: Chris Rodriguez, nice game again. Fifteen carries, sixty three yards,

522
00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:23,280
Speaker 1: four point two touchdown run late obviously for them, there's

523
00:22:23,320 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 1: been a lot about what he's gone through this year, right,

524
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 1: changed his body.

525
00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a proud dat over here smiling every

526
00:22:31,880 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 2: time someone.

527
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 4: You love him? I love him.

528
00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 3: I love Chris because of just watching him, especially a

529
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:44,879
Speaker 3: year ago, bounce back and forth between practice squad on

530
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:49,240
Speaker 3: the roster, off the route back to practice squad, and

531
00:22:49,240 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 3: in the way like I would see Chris and he

532
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:54,399
Speaker 3: was always the same guy, just always smile on his

533
00:22:54,480 --> 00:22:57,720
Speaker 3: face and just like man where he could he could

534
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 3: have easily been frustrated with that situation because I think

535
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,800
Speaker 3: the year before, you know, he had he played a major.

536
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:04,800
Speaker 4: Role as a as a running back.

537
00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:07,600
Speaker 3: So to have his situation happened like that last year

538
00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:10,840
Speaker 3: and then this year he wasn't even active. I believe

539
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,439
Speaker 3: in the first game it was he wasn't active in

540
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:13,840
Speaker 3: the first game.

541
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,880
Speaker 1: I think I'll tell you he was disappointed by Yeah. Yeah,

542
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:17,679
Speaker 1: into the preseason, yeah right.

543
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:22,120
Speaker 3: Right, and in that game. Chris is produced every time

544
00:23:22,160 --> 00:23:25,800
Speaker 3: he's gotten opportunity. This year, you talked about getting his

545
00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 3: body in a different condition, different shape. He ran with

546
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,080
Speaker 3: so much powered other than I mean just the body lane,

547
00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:37,080
Speaker 3: not giving the the egles a target to hit the

548
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:38,600
Speaker 3: fifteen kre I would have loved for him to be

549
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:40,880
Speaker 3: able to get more. But the game flow kind of changes,

550
00:23:41,160 --> 00:23:43,640
Speaker 3: and then Bill Bill ran well is what in.

551
00:23:43,640 --> 00:23:44,480
Speaker 4: That ball game as well?

552
00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:46,520
Speaker 3: I think I think we would have loved for a

553
00:23:46,560 --> 00:23:48,679
Speaker 3: little bit more production out of the run game some

554
00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 3: of the some of the things the Eagles did kind

555
00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,240
Speaker 3: of mess with our blocking skin.

556
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, that's that's my thoughts. Like I think

557
00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:57,840
Speaker 2: the backs ran hard. I think obviously they missed cuts

558
00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 2: here and there, but I think there was sometimes getting

559
00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,399
Speaker 2: that like that six' one, Front it just is a

560
00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 2: little bit difficult to deal with in terms of, targets

561
00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,240
Speaker 2: especially if you don't used to seeing. It AND i

562
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:07,680
Speaker 2: felt like there was a little bit of that going,

563
00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,920
Speaker 2: on just interesting decisions in terms of combinations and where we're,

564
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,360
Speaker 2: going how we're targeting, stuff and especially with a guy

565
00:24:13,400 --> 00:24:15,160
Speaker 2: Like Jordan, davis as you talked. ABOUT i think both

566
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:16,800
Speaker 2: of you guys talked about it on the show on the,

567
00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,639
Speaker 2: broadcast like he's such a problem and so like can, you,

568
00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 2: like how can you work your combinations to ensure that

569
00:24:23,600 --> 00:24:24,560
Speaker 2: you're getting four hands on?

570
00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,119
Speaker 3: Him, yeah you got to get them pause on and

571
00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 3: got the pause to get pause on, him.

572
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 5: And so like it.

573
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:30,400
Speaker 2: Was it was kind of it's, funny like two weeks

574
00:24:30,440 --> 00:24:32,359
Speaker 2: in a, row it's been kind of WHAT i would

575
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 2: characterize is like messy in terms of targets and like

576
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 2: some technical. Execution BUT i think it's again a testament

577
00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:40,960
Speaker 2: to kind of the grittiness of that group that they're able,

578
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 2: to you, know fall forward for, four fight for an

579
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:46,360
Speaker 2: extra two, here and have a relatively productive.

580
00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:50,480
Speaker 1: Day Bill Krofsky, merritt it only got eight. Carries i'm

581
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,119
Speaker 1: personally not surprised that that was the. CASE i know

582
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: people saw the game he Had New york and Remember

583
00:24:54,880 --> 00:24:57,800
Speaker 1: chris didn't, play and that's a bad rush defense this.

584
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,119
Speaker 1: Year and they saw that and they, go, well you,

585
00:25:00,160 --> 00:25:02,160
Speaker 1: know here's a guy who's. Explosive he's going to get

586
00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: the ball. More AND i was watching That eagles defense

587
00:25:04,359 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: coming in and early in the season one of the

588
00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 1: things that they wanted him to improve on was protection

589
00:25:09,880 --> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 1: and these blitzing linebackers Ni Kobe dean was running people

590
00:25:12,800 --> 00:25:16,399
Speaker 1: over And Nolan smith has become a very good either

591
00:25:16,480 --> 00:25:19,560
Speaker 1: outside edge or blitzing. Linebacker they've been really strong at

592
00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: this so it didn't surprise me that the bulk of

593
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:23,640
Speaker 1: the carries didn't go his. Way at the same, time

594
00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:25,520
Speaker 1: he ended up scoring and maybe had one of the

595
00:25:25,560 --> 00:25:27,439
Speaker 1: best runs of the, day the one early where it

596
00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: was for eleven or twelve where he got through a.

597
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:31,719
Speaker 1: Crease he actually made the touchdown a little harder than

598
00:25:31,760 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: it had to. Be there was a crease that was

599
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 1: wide over. Him but were nitpicking he scored, Anyway but for,

600
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: him what are you seeing for him now as he

601
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 1: kind of heads towards year.

602
00:25:39,680 --> 00:25:43,560
Speaker 3: Two JUST i think there was that stretch and during

603
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,919
Speaker 3: a point of the season where he was having a fumbling,

604
00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:48,840
Speaker 3: issues AND i think he got so caught up in

605
00:25:48,960 --> 00:25:52,280
Speaker 3: not wanting to fumble the football to he wasn't running

606
00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 3: natural using his natural instinks he, was and he also

607
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,119
Speaker 3: was trying to make everything a home. Run he started

608
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,600
Speaker 3: dancing a little bit as opposed to sometimes you just

609
00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:03,159
Speaker 3: got to take what's, there put your head down and

610
00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,159
Speaker 3: run through the back of.

611
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 4: Somebody it might even be running through the back of

612
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:06,480
Speaker 4: your own.

613
00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:10,240
Speaker 3: Blocker but since, then especially the last couple of, weeks

614
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 3: he's run with more like, power more, certainty just, like,

615
00:26:16,359 --> 00:26:18,240
Speaker 3: HEY i see, This i'm gonna Get i'm gonna get.

616
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:23,000
Speaker 3: Downhill you can see him gain him the, experience his,

617
00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,720
Speaker 3: vision his jump cut that's always been, there but just

618
00:26:25,800 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 3: his running between the. Tackles i've definitely been impressed with

619
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:30,240
Speaker 3: him over the last couple of.

620
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 2: Weeks, yeah and it has to BE i think one

621
00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,480
Speaker 2: of the things that is so important for young backs

622
00:26:34,480 --> 00:26:36,400
Speaker 2: coming in the league to know and understand is that

623
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,440
Speaker 2: you got to keep the offense on. Schedule LIKE i

624
00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:40,880
Speaker 2: Remember Bobby, turner like when he was. Here you, know Old,

625
00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,920
Speaker 2: bobby the running backs coach With. Kyle it was just, like, hey, man,

626
00:26:45,040 --> 00:26:46,880
Speaker 2: LIKE i don't. CARE i don't really care about home.

627
00:26:46,960 --> 00:26:49,360
Speaker 2: RUNS i care about getting on base with. Runs, right

628
00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 2: if you run for, two run for, three that's better

629
00:26:51,800 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 2: than a negative one zero yard. Run AND i Think

630
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:57,840
Speaker 2: chris does that really really. Well and AGAIN i Think

631
00:26:57,880 --> 00:26:59,640
Speaker 2: bill is learning how to do. That AND i think

632
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 2: you talk about you, know like And fletch just mentioned,

633
00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:03,280
Speaker 2: it like the.

634
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 5: Home run, element like wait for your.

635
00:27:04,880 --> 00:27:06,840
Speaker 2: Pitch it's so tempting to want to do that every,

636
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:09,480
Speaker 2: time but you Gotta if the offense isn't on, schedule

637
00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:11,480
Speaker 2: you're in a lot of third. Longs like you really

638
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:14,400
Speaker 2: as a back have a lot of control over that game.

639
00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:18,160
Speaker 4: Flow but, listen sometimes you might have to be on block.

640
00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 3: Rolls there's a a song's supposed to go, outside but

641
00:27:22,280 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 3: that that thing parks like The RIA C i might

642
00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,199
Speaker 3: have to put my foot in the. Ground, YEAH i

643
00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,879
Speaker 3: see this, linebacker he's five yards. Out it's, mono way.

644
00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:30,720
Speaker 3: Mono i'm gonna get downhill and we're gonna have a

645
00:27:30,720 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 3: collision And i'm probably gonna get four or five yards

646
00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:35,040
Speaker 3: AND i might.

647
00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:38,359
Speaker 1: That's an awesome run, Though yeah, Exactly, Yeah, YEAH i

648
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,000
Speaker 1: think like early in Watching philly getting ready for the,

649
00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:42,480
Speaker 1: GAME i was asked by a lot of people In,

650
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,040
Speaker 1: Philadelphia they, like what do you think is wrong with our?

651
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,760
Speaker 4: Offense which is a trap question for them to get

652
00:27:45,800 --> 00:27:46,840
Speaker 4: you to say something bad about the.

653
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,199
Speaker 1: Game but like for, me and maybe you agree or,

654
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 1: DISAGREE i actually think it's their inability to run the

655
00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:55,919
Speaker 1: ball well on the early downs where they actually become

656
00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 1: like everybody.

657
00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 4: Else that to me is the.

658
00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,080
Speaker 1: Difference AND i don't know if that's they're not disguising

659
00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:03,640
Speaker 1: where the ball is, going Because i'm Seeing saquon get

660
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 1: blown up over and. Over it actually happened in our

661
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,920
Speaker 1: game as, well a little bit more than you would have, expected,

662
00:28:08,440 --> 00:28:10,000
Speaker 1: like and that's their problem to deal.

663
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:11,359
Speaker 4: With but that's what sticks out to.

664
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:13,160
Speaker 1: Me so to your point about you got to take

665
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:16,640
Speaker 1: what you get to keep yourself running on, Time philadelphia

666
00:28:16,680 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 1: is like everybody else when they don't run the ball

667
00:28:18,880 --> 00:28:20,200
Speaker 1: well on the early downs.

668
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:21,480
Speaker 5: Too it's one million.

669
00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:22,960
Speaker 2: Percent AND i think if you look at the biggest

670
00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:24,760
Speaker 2: difference between last year and this, year it's like his

671
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,000
Speaker 2: explosive run. Percentage and you mentioned this on the broadcast

672
00:28:27,080 --> 00:28:29,399
Speaker 2: yards before, contact, right AND i think they have they

673
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 2: have do you have a new offensive. Coordinator like even,

674
00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:33,640
Speaker 2: man we talked about run targets. HERE i talk about

675
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,080
Speaker 2: it to you quite a, bit you, Know texan and,

676
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,840
Speaker 2: stuff like they target runs And i'm, like why would

677
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 2: you target it this?

678
00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:39,440
Speaker 5: Way you know What i'm.

679
00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,360
Speaker 2: Saying and, again like you can tell they're still feeling

680
00:28:42,360 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 2: out new, combinations new points and emphasis for the. Offense

681
00:28:45,080 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 2: and again there's probably a lot of. Carryover you can

682
00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,120
Speaker 2: tell there's different. Priorities like last year they were this

683
00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:51,160
Speaker 2: kind of, like, hey we're going to be like a

684
00:28:51,160 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 2: tight zone counter. Team we're going to run like bounce the.

685
00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:57,160
Speaker 2: Perimeter and now it's a lot more duo really tight

686
00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,200
Speaker 2: zone you know WHAT i, mean downhill runs and you

687
00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,920
Speaker 2: could tell that the tight, ends the, tackles they're not

688
00:29:02,120 --> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 2: used to that, distribution and it's really negatively impacted the

689
00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 2: offense to your, point and they're good enough to survive

690
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:08,960
Speaker 2: it because they're one of the most talented teams in.

691
00:29:09,000 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 2: Football but, yeah to, me that's like got to be

692
00:29:11,760 --> 00:29:13,240
Speaker 2: like high in the list in terms of the biggest

693
00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:14,240
Speaker 2: difference from last year to this.

694
00:29:14,280 --> 00:29:18,080
Speaker 3: Year, yeah the the offensive, line they've had some health

695
00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:22,560
Speaker 3: issues as, Well but ALSO i don't think they're blocking

696
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 3: their playing as well as they were a season. Ago

697
00:29:25,320 --> 00:29:28,160
Speaker 3: either so whether it's a new offensive coordinator or, NOT

698
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 3: i mean sometimes they're just not winning their individual, matchups

699
00:29:32,160 --> 00:29:34,360
Speaker 3: not consistently enough like they used.

700
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:35,720
Speaker 4: To and that's been a big.

701
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:40,160
Speaker 2: Difference you see like and like good Football, dickerson like

702
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:41,160
Speaker 2: you see it with good football.

703
00:29:41,160 --> 00:29:44,080
Speaker 3: Players, YEAH i wonder if we've we've all of a

704
00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,760
Speaker 3: sudden given them some. Confidence with Say kwan the last

705
00:29:46,960 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 3: he'said rush fol four hundred yards two out of the

706
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:49,400
Speaker 3: last three.

707
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: Weeks, yeah he only has three hundred plus yard rush

708
00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: days on the, season but two of them have come,

709
00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:56,400
Speaker 1: recently so they're coming. Around and that is Without Lane.

710
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:58,480
Speaker 1: Johnson he's missed like well over a month of the foot.

711
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:00,000
Speaker 1: Injury so we'll. See we'll see them in a. Week

712
00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: let me get back to our team for a. MOMENT

713
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,560
Speaker 1: a couple guys all just want to point out to

714
00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,520
Speaker 1: you and see where you think they. Are Jacob martin

715
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,560
Speaker 1: came in here. Veteran every week he's given them a

716
00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:11,360
Speaker 1: play That logan's. Boy, yeah he forced to fumble this past.

717
00:30:11,360 --> 00:30:13,200
Speaker 1: Week Unfortunately hurts was able to get it, back but

718
00:30:13,240 --> 00:30:16,840
Speaker 1: he forced to fumble this, week and he just seems

719
00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,840
Speaker 1: to be bringing a lot of energy to the edge for.

720
00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,520
Speaker 4: Them so what have you seen from?

721
00:30:21,640 --> 00:30:23,800
Speaker 2: Him, YEAH i MEAN i, think, like so obviously he

722
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:26,440
Speaker 2: has a good pass rush field pass rush. NUANCE i

723
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 2: think the thing that sticks out. Most and IF i, was,

724
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:30,920
Speaker 2: like you, KNOW i coach high school, FOOTBALL i go

725
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,200
Speaker 2: has a go Watch Jacob. Martin it's not because the

726
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,440
Speaker 2: pass rush. Nuance it's because he plays. Hard he's, Conditioned

727
00:30:37,600 --> 00:30:40,080
Speaker 2: he plays every down like it's his, last and he

728
00:30:40,360 --> 00:30:42,239
Speaker 2: and he makes plays because of. It, right he's in,

729
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,040
Speaker 2: pursuit he's chasing the quarterback, down he brings a bull

730
00:30:45,120 --> 00:30:47,720
Speaker 2: rush and he like there's something about, like if, hey

731
00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,440
Speaker 2: we got forty snaps in the, Game i'm.

732
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:51,040
Speaker 5: Giving you EVERYTHING i got in all, Forty like you're

733
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 5: gonna make.

734
00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:54,080
Speaker 2: Plays and so that's that's the thing that gets me

735
00:30:54,160 --> 00:30:56,840
Speaker 2: juiced About Jacob martin is, like is he the most

736
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:58,560
Speaker 2: is he is He Miles garrett talent?

737

738
00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 2: No but who is like he just he has made

739
00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,880
Speaker 2: a niche for himself in the league because he plays

740
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,080
Speaker 2: hard and he gets me fired up physical.

741
00:31:06,160 --> 00:31:08,240
Speaker 4: Too he set he sett hard.

742
00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,640
Speaker 3: Edges that was A i noticed that even early in

743
00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,920
Speaker 3: the season when before he started kind of turning the

744
00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 3: corner as a pass. Rusher he was setting hard edges

745
00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,400
Speaker 3: as outside as, defender which is big when you talk

746
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:25,480
Speaker 3: about stopping a. Rum he has a couple of he

00:33:06,200 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 3: so many snaps on them.

792
00:33:07,800 --> 00:33:09,200
Speaker 1: All, Right one other PLAYER i want to get to

793
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:10,840
Speaker 1: AND i want to ask you About Traylon burks had

794
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:12,720
Speaker 1: a couple of nice. Catches one of them got reversed

795
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 1: by a.

796
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 4: Hole let me go back To berks for a.

797
00:33:14,640 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: Minute, yes, Okay so he's catching passes from who knows

798
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 1: what quarterback every single. Week he came in here mid,

799
00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,920
Speaker 1: season he was coming off. Injuries new you, know new,

800
00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:28,240
Speaker 1: environment new. Everything what have you seen From? Ember what

801
00:33:28,400 --> 00:33:30,880
Speaker 1: can you learn about him as they think about him

802
00:33:31,160 --> 00:33:33,560
Speaker 1: as being part of the receiving core potentially into the.

803
00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:36,440
Speaker 2: FUTURE i, MEAN i THINK i think if you see

804
00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:39,000
Speaker 2: a guy who's got a great catch radius in good,

805
00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:41,160
Speaker 2: hands he's competitive at the catch. POINT i think you

806
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:44,160
Speaker 2: see some some stuff technically as a route, runner in

807
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:45,920
Speaker 2: terms of, breaks decelerations that.

808
00:33:45,880 --> 00:33:47,000
Speaker 5: Are that can be improved.

809
00:33:47,040 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 2: Upon he's a big guy, Though BUT i THINK i

810
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 2: think you can call plays to fit his skill, set,

811
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,240
Speaker 2: Right and you, know maybe he's not your you, know

812
00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:56,280
Speaker 2: Like peregar's on great comeback, runner, right, Uh Deshaun jackson

813
00:33:56,320 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 2: not so much, right a little bit. Loose so like

814
00:33:57,880 --> 00:33:59,760
Speaker 2: let's call stuff that he's good at and the other

815
00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,080
Speaker 2: thing that gets me super fired up about him is

816
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 2: like when he's inserting in the run, game like he's

817
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 2: trying to block. People SO i feel like THE i

818
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,160
Speaker 2: feel the passion for the game that's. Coming AND i

819
00:34:09,200 --> 00:34:11,960
Speaker 2: also see a tremendous skill. Set LIKE i see his

820
00:34:11,960 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 2: skill set, again it's maybe not the most refined and

821
00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,160
Speaker 2: nu once like the same way That terry is or

822
00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,640
Speaker 2: some of those, guys BUT i think there's there's definitely something.

823
00:34:19,640 --> 00:34:21,600
Speaker 2: There and then with the right, coach right, situation right,

824
00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:23,120
Speaker 2: utilization could be pretty.

825
00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:25,840
Speaker 4: DYNAMIC i, say first thing that jumps out is his.

826
00:34:25,920 --> 00:34:28,600
Speaker 3: Size big until about six to, TWO i don't know

827
00:34:28,600 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 3: what what he is white, wise he got long, arms long, arms,

828
00:34:31,920 --> 00:34:35,960
Speaker 3: athletic he can he can, jump He's we had him

829
00:34:35,960 --> 00:34:38,319
Speaker 3: on a on The Players club and then you AND

830
00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:40,520
Speaker 3: i interviewed him after one of the, game after the

831
00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,279
Speaker 3: game where he made that correct catch and he's, LIKE

832
00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 3: i make plays like.

833
00:34:43,840 --> 00:34:45,239
Speaker 4: That all the time and.

834
00:34:45,360 --> 00:34:48,560
Speaker 3: Practice so it wasn't he wasn't being he was just

835
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,960
Speaker 3: saying LIKE i do this all the, time like making

836
00:34:52,520 --> 00:34:55,680
Speaker 3: one headed catches or acrobatic. Catches so so the size to,

837
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:59,600
Speaker 3: athleticism the ability to grow across the middle and the

838
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:02,520
Speaker 3: the past they got called back because of the factom

839
00:35:02,600 --> 00:35:05,279
Speaker 3: hole man that was a phenomenal catch.

840
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:07,520
Speaker 4: Between, defenders no.

841
00:35:07,640 --> 00:35:11,440
Speaker 3: Fear so those are the things THAT i like about,

842
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:14,840
Speaker 3: him AND i think he's in a great room with

843
00:35:15,000 --> 00:35:17,920
Speaker 3: the starting off With Bobby, ingram the wide receiver. Coach

844
00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:21,360

857
00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:50,279
Speaker 1: A Christmas day game. Here records are what they. Are

858
00:35:50,719 --> 00:35:53,760
Speaker 1: team is very. Injured Sam cosmey unfortunately went on ir,

859
00:35:53,840 --> 00:35:55,880
Speaker 1: Today so another shift on the offensive line will have

860
00:35:55,960 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: to see With Laramie, Tunzel Brandon coleman got hurt in the.

861
00:35:58,560 --> 00:35:59,279
Speaker 4: Games we'll have to.

862
00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:00,920
Speaker 1: See with him as, Well so there's going to be

863
00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:03,600
Speaker 1: a lot of moving parts there upfront. End, obviously we

864
00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: don't know About Marcus. Mariota the team Signed Jeff, driscoll

865
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:08,640
Speaker 1: who was with the team a year, ago to the active.

866
00:36:08,719 --> 00:36:12,600
Speaker 1: Rosters he's probably the primary backup To Josh johnson If

867
00:36:12,719 --> 00:36:13,480
Speaker 1: marcus can't.

868
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:16,720
Speaker 4: Go so let's do a forget. Review let's do a preview.

869
00:36:16,760 --> 00:36:20,239
Speaker 1: Here, okay if you're on offense And mariot is not,

870
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 1: playing which we don't know is the, case how are

871
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:26,799
Speaker 1: you thinking, about you, know whoever the quarterback is with

872
00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:31,240
Speaker 1: a very different offensive line and trying to manufacture something

873
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:32,080
Speaker 1: this week against The.

874
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 2: Cowboys, YEAH i think it's about for, me like when

875
00:36:36,239 --> 00:36:38,400
Speaker 2: you kind of like start taking pieces off the, Board

876
00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,120
Speaker 2: it's about what is the quarterback the most comfortable with

877
00:36:41,160 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 2: from a past game. Standpoint so that's going to move

878
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 2: to the top of the, list, Right and then we're

879
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 2: really going to take a deep dive on the run, game, right,

880
00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,520
Speaker 2: like how do we optimize the guys that are in

881
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 2: the backs that we, have how do we make sure

882
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:54,200
Speaker 2: we have good angles in the blocking surface because that's

883
00:36:54,239 --> 00:36:56,839
Speaker 2: got to be hyper. Efficient and THEN i say this every,

884
00:36:56,880 --> 00:36:59,799
Speaker 2: week but like, what like where do you manufacture your

885
00:37:00,040 --> 00:37:01,560
Speaker 2: losted plays? From like is it trick?

886
00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:02,240
Speaker 5: Plays double?

887
00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,840
Speaker 2: Passes if if you're trying to put like put points

888
00:37:05,840 --> 00:37:07,759
Speaker 2: on the, board like this is the game where you

889
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:09,480
Speaker 2: really got to kind of dig to the bottom of

890
00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,000
Speaker 2: the barrel there and say this is what we got to.

891
00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 3: Do i'd say one thing, though that's to our advantage

892
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,720
Speaker 3: as an, offense Assuming marioda is not able to. Play

893
00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,640
Speaker 3: first of, all they won't know who are starting quarterback

894
00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:21,520
Speaker 3: is Until.

895
00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,080
Speaker 4: Thursday until Until by the, way it's.

896
00:37:25,080 --> 00:37:29,000
Speaker 3: Hard it's, difficult especially in a situation like when when

897
00:37:29,480 --> 00:37:32,720
Speaker 3: From jane and And marcus not so not as difficult

898
00:37:32,719 --> 00:37:34,919
Speaker 3: because you're a similar. Offense you're gonna you're gonna run

899
00:37:35,840 --> 00:37:39,920
Speaker 3: the same. Offense you, know basically you might run a

900
00:37:39,960 --> 00:37:44,359
Speaker 3: little bit more of certain concepts with with one guy

901
00:37:44,400 --> 00:37:48,560
Speaker 3: as opposed to. Another so that's not as. Difficult As Josh.

902
00:37:48,640 --> 00:37:51,600
Speaker 3: Johnson you really haven't seen him in this offense at,

903
00:37:51,640 --> 00:37:54,799
Speaker 3: all so what is the offense going to look like with?

904
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:58,960
Speaker 3: Him and then With Jeff. Drisco you you have to

905
00:37:59,000 --> 00:38:01,720
Speaker 3: go back to preseason to watch him in this, offense

906
00:38:01,760 --> 00:38:04,560
Speaker 3: so you don't, Know, hey what what are the stress

907
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,480
Speaker 3: of weaknesses of these two quarterbacks in this? Offense and

908
00:38:07,520 --> 00:38:10,480
Speaker 3: you won't find that out until game. Days so that's

909
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 3: so as a defense now we're just trying To we

910
00:38:14,120 --> 00:38:17,279
Speaker 3: don't know how to kind of develop our game. Plan

911
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 3: what are we going to major in from a defense? Standpoint,

912
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 3: yeah we weren't major in stopping a. Run but are

913
00:38:22,920 --> 00:38:25,279
Speaker 3: we gonna blitt this? Quarterback are we going to play

914
00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,920
Speaker 3: a little bit more? Coverage does he have the arm

915
00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:28,800
Speaker 3: to go deep against?

916
00:38:28,880 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 4: Us is he a?

917
00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,439
Speaker 3: Quarterback is gonna take? Shots will he? Scramble all those

918
00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:33,680
Speaker 3: types of things we're here.

919
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:36,040
Speaker 2: With you were here when we Played minnesota and the

920
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:38,480
Speaker 2: starting quarterback went, Out Adrian peterson went, out and they

921
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:41,759
Speaker 2: put like web in and Then Toby gerhart and we

922
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,080
Speaker 2: were up by two. Scores, like is that part of

923
00:38:44,120 --> 00:38:46,319
Speaker 2: the difficulty is like you just, stylistically it's.

924
00:38:46,680 --> 00:38:47,880
Speaker 5: Different i've lost different.

925
00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:50,759
Speaker 3: Pitch i've been on a defense where we've had more

926
00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:53,920
Speaker 3: than our fair share of kind of losses when a

927
00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 3: backup quarterback has come in because for one reason or,

928
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:01,720
Speaker 3: another we may take our foot off the. Gas like perfect,

929
00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,759
Speaker 3: example we're playing The Pittsburgh Stillers monday, night. Football we

930
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,800

Speaker 3: now it helped That pittsburgh had the most probably one

944
00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,200
Speaker 3: of the most legendary defenses in the history out of

945
00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 3: THE nfl that. Season but from a defensive, standpoint we're

946
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 3: pretty darn good defensively as.

947
00:39:58,680 --> 00:39:59,360
Speaker 4: Well that.

948
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:03,200
Speaker 3: Season you finished number four in the league and the

949
00:40:03,239 --> 00:40:04,960
Speaker 3: backup quarterback came in there and lit us.

950
00:40:05,040 --> 00:40:07,880
Speaker 4: Up all, right let me ask you on the defensive

951
00:40:07,880 --> 00:40:08,239
Speaker 4: side of the.

952
00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 1: Ball so last time they Played, dallas big explosive plays of.

953
00:40:12,560 --> 00:40:14,719
Speaker 1: Courage George pickings had a couple down the. Sideline there

954
00:40:14,719 --> 00:40:16,839
Speaker 1: was a miscommunication on the back. End ceedee lamb at

955
00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:20,439
Speaker 1: a very long explosive. Touchdown so how are you, thinking

956
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,440
Speaker 1: how do you think they're thinking about? This this is

957
00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 1: this is when they were healthier on the back. End

958
00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:27,240
Speaker 1: how are you thinking about trying to Limit dallas's?

959
00:40:27,239 --> 00:40:29,719
Speaker 3: Offense, well we're better on the back end, now we're

960
00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:31,319
Speaker 3: more connected than we.

961
00:40:31,320 --> 00:40:32,840
Speaker 5: Were can you elaborate on?

962
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:32,920
Speaker 2: That?

963
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:35,719
Speaker 4: YEAH i was going to.

964
00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,360
Speaker 5: Labor you're just gonna be, like, hey we're more connected than.

965
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:38,200
Speaker 4: This, no, no, NO i was going to.

966
00:40:38,239 --> 00:40:42,880
Speaker 3: Elaborate, Yeah so back then we were trying to a

967
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:43,720
Speaker 3: bunch of different.

968
00:40:44,080 --> 00:40:45,560
Speaker 4: Things there wasn't great.

969
00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:50,600
Speaker 3: Discipline we weren't connected in disguises and knowing your depths and.

970
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:56,080
Speaker 3: Communication we didn't Have Will, Harris so having, him, yeah

971
00:40:56,120 --> 00:41:00,440
Speaker 3: Having Will harris as a communicator back, there we stand

972
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:05,320
Speaker 3: situations we're calling let's, say probably from a defensive. Standpoint

973
00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 3: D q has really, said we're not going to give

974
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,520
Speaker 3: up the, Explosives so we may play a little bit

975
00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,800
Speaker 3: more off may play a little bit more zone, coverage

976
00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:15,840
Speaker 3: put a little bit more traditional. Structure we don't Do

977
00:41:16,040 --> 00:41:19,160
Speaker 3: we still do our inverted, too but we're just doing

978
00:41:19,200 --> 00:41:22,440
Speaker 3: it in a different. Manner that one that that we

979
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:24,680
Speaker 3: gave up the BIG CD lamb play on that was

980
00:41:24,719 --> 00:41:27,680
Speaker 3: an inverted, too and we didn't play it the way

981
00:41:27,719 --> 00:41:29,600
Speaker 3: it was supposed to be, played and that's HOW i

982
00:41:29,680 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: ended up being so wide. Open so we're we're a

983
00:41:32,120 --> 00:41:36,200
Speaker 3: better secondary than we were back. Then AND i think

984
00:41:36,200 --> 00:41:39,440
Speaker 3: they're just the emphasis and the intention of detail has

985
00:41:39,520 --> 00:41:41,720
Speaker 3: wrapped up over the last several.

986
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:43,839
Speaker 4: Weeks so that's that's the big.

987
00:41:43,880 --> 00:41:46,920
Speaker 3: THING i DON'T i don't see Not they may still

988
00:41:46,960 --> 00:41:49,120
Speaker 3: have some yards in the passing. Game they got some

989
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:50,719
Speaker 3: hell of hell of a football players and hell of,

990
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 3: receivers BUT i don't expect it to be the big

991
00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,719
Speaker 3: explosives like we, did like we had in that like

992
00:41:56,760 --> 00:41:57,400
Speaker 3: they had in that.

993
00:41:57,440 --> 00:41:58,719
Speaker 5: Game, YEAH i, MEAN i totally.

994
00:41:58,760 --> 00:42:00,680
Speaker 2: AGREE i think like when you just look at Since,

995
00:42:00,719 --> 00:42:02,759
Speaker 2: miami really like they've done a really good job of,

996
00:42:02,800 --> 00:42:06,799
Speaker 2: communicating getting things uh spaced appropriately in the back. End

997
00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 2: AND i, think, Again i'm very confident in that. GROUP

998
00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:11,160
Speaker 2: i know they've.

999
00:42:11,160 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 5: Improved it's Just Dak Prescott's, yeah you.

1000
00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:17,040
Speaker 4: Was, different he'd be up FOR.

1001
00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 3: Mvp it would help man to be able to get

1002
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:24,080
Speaker 3: a consistent rush on a quarterback and made it to.

1003
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:28,000
Speaker 4: Kind of what we're the hand we've been. Dealt.

1004
00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:31,440
Speaker 3: Now vin has shown, flashes he's been able to get some,

1005
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:37,400
Speaker 3: sacks and we Have Jacob martin Then Draca. Jackson he

1006
00:42:37,440 --> 00:42:40,120
Speaker 3: did some things that you can be proud of and

1007
00:42:40,360 --> 00:42:42,279
Speaker 3: kind of, Like, okay maybe there's something, there but we

1008
00:42:42,400 --> 00:42:44,680
Speaker 3: have to be able to get. Pressure hopefully you can

1009
00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 3: get it with a four man rush so you can

1010
00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:49,400
Speaker 3: have you, know seven guys back in.

1011
00:42:49,440 --> 00:42:50,920
