They deserve it, Stee. You know, a 21 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,120 Speaker 1: few weeks ago on this podcast, you mentioned that regardless 22 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 1: of where the record was at that point a couple 23 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: weeks down the road, we would take a look back 24 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:04,880 Speaker 1: and say, hey, you know, this team, as long as 25 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,640 Speaker 1: it keep getting better week by week, things are going 26 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: to change for them. And look where we're at right now. 27 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:10,479 Speaker 1: I mean you called it. 28 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean that's just how the NFL is, 29 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 3: you know, and certain teams respond to adversity and other 30 00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:23,040 Speaker 3: teams don't. But this team, you know, they're extremely well coached. 31 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,880 Speaker 3: They're disciplined, and they believe. They believe in one another, 32 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,640 Speaker 3: they believe in their coaches, and they have a great 33 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,920 Speaker 3: relationship all over there, in that entire building over there, 34 00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 3: and you know, I just had a feeling that something 35 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 3: special could happen if they stuck to it. And that's 36 00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 3: exactly what's happened. And you know, I know they got 37 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:45,080 Speaker 3: to be on cloud nine right now. 38 00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, you saw the potential. Steve looking back at a 39 00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 1: Sunday's twenty nine to twelve win over the Browns. By 40 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:52,360 Speaker 1: the way, that's a score, Agami. I don't know if 41 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: you've heard. 42 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 2: Of that, but I heard that. I just heard that 43 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:56,880 Speaker 2: the other day, Like, that's score. 44 00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: I don't believe that it's the first time that that's 45 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: ever happened. That's what they're saying. I think that's pretty cool. Though. 46 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:05,560 Speaker 2: We got it, we got it, we got it. We 47 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,600 Speaker 2: gotta check that. We gotta check. I haven't check. 48 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: We gotta check it, well, Steve. Anyways, looking at the game, 49 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:13,919 Speaker 1: I mean just a really physical game. I mean thinking 50 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: about the run game to start, one hundred and sixty 51 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:17,760 Speaker 1: nine yards on the ground. That was a season high 52 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: for the Broncos uh this year, and it was great 53 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,760 Speaker 1: to see Javonte Williams, Mandje p ranj p Ryan had 54 00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:26,919 Speaker 1: his first touchdown of the season as a Bronco too. 55 00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 1: They were just they were getting after it. 56 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,239 Speaker 3: Yeah, gets a greade one two three punch with Javonte Williams, 57 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,360 Speaker 3: my JP Ryan and Jael McLoughlin. And then you know, 58 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 3: it starts with that offensive line. Yeah, because it starts 59 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 3: right there in the trenches. And I don't think you 60 00:02:41,440 --> 00:02:46,080 Speaker 3: can have any good office without an amazing offensive line. 61 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:48,799 Speaker 2: And I agree in Demver we have that now. 62 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:52,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, these guys are playing high level football and they're 63 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 3: playing to the whistle. That's the only thing that I 64 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 3: thought they were missing earlier in the year. They were physical, 65 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 3: they were playing hard, but some plays they wouldn't finish. 66 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: You know, when I say played to the whistle. 67 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 3: Just you know, keep blocking somebody until the whistle blows, 68 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:09,800 Speaker 3: because I know it's a defender. I hated that, you know, 69 00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 3: because those are the guys. 70 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,400 Speaker 2: They're coming. They are always looking for somebody to block. 71 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 2: And you know, we like the guys who stop blocking. 72 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,200 Speaker 3: They block their guy and think the play is over 73 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:19,880 Speaker 3: and play goes another four or five seconds and they're 74 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: sitting around watching. 75 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 2: Well, these guys there are doing that. 76 00:03:22,520 --> 00:03:26,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, they're blocking somebody and they're getting the real pesty 77 00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 3: to defenders. 78 00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 1: They are even Jeonte Williams, he spoke to the media 79 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:32,720 Speaker 1: on Monday, Steve and he said that, you know, he 80 00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 1: contributes a lot of this wind streak to the offensive 81 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: line and how they've played, and you can tell the 82 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: chemistry they have is really special right now. 83 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:45,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, and like offensive linemen, they love to block for 84 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: running back that runs hard, running backs that run hard, 85 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 3: and our running backs they run hard. They and Liil 86 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 3: mcgloughlin gives them that third element of the speed and 87 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 3: the quickness. But I think they love all three of 88 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,160 Speaker 3: our running backs because they're so physical and if they 89 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: give them a little bit of a crease. They're going 90 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 3: to get through it quickly and they're going to run 91 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 3: run downhill and make something happen. 92 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,920 Speaker 2: So it's fun on it's fun on both sides. 93 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 3: The running back loves it because it's a hole there, 94 00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 3: but the offensive lineman love to see those guys get 95 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 3: through there. 96 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: We'll see you've looking over the wind streak. Moving on 97 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:22,960 Speaker 1: to the defense. Now, sixteen takeaways over the past five games. 98 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 3: It just keeps what happening after the week, turnover, interception 99 00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 3: and cause fumble, guys knocking the ball out of the 100 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 3: quarterbacks hand like PJ Lock did you know? 101 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,400 Speaker 2: It's just guys are practicing it. They're practicing it. 102 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,240 Speaker 3: And they're intentional about it in the game and you 103 00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 3: can tell. 104 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:43,719 Speaker 2: And I know some teams that have done that and 105 00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: they still haven't been able to do it in the game. 106 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 3: But these guys, the carryover to the games is outstanding. 107 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:51,279 Speaker 2: You know. 108 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,839 Speaker 3: Then their ability to actually take what they do in 109 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:56,280 Speaker 3: practice and make it happen in the game. 110 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 2: It's next level. 111 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 3: So they got to keep the got a guy keep 112 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 3: doing it and even if it's stopped right now, you 113 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 3: said it was it was awesome. 114 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 2: It was he's gonna stop no ive. 115 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, I know head coach on Fay, and he contributed 116 00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:14,599 Speaker 1: a lot of the team's success to you know, being 117 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 1: able to take the ball away, but also on offense 118 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,720 Speaker 1: protecting the ball to that's been so key in this 119 00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 1: win streak. 120 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,919 Speaker 2: I think, No, I agree one hundred percent. 121 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:24,479 Speaker 3: And you know, I think we had eight penalties, but 122 00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 3: I think our penalty level has actually come down quite 123 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 3: a bit as well, and they haven't been those real 124 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 3: onerous penalties where you know they're fifteen twenty yards, you know, 125 00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: taking away big plays. You know, they's just penalties just 126 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: kind of go along with the game. So, yeah, this 127 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,240 Speaker 3: is it's been been really nice what the offense has 128 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 3: been doing, and again you got to keep it going. 129 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:51,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll See've gone back to the defense here. I 130 00:05:51,839 --> 00:05:54,160 Speaker 1: know the Browns coming into this game, they were averaging 131 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:56,880 Speaker 1: one hundred and forty three rushing yards. It was third 132 00:05:56,880 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: in the league. But I thought I would run defense 133 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:00,880 Speaker 1: ad a really good job job held them to one 134 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: hundred and seven yards overall. What did you think about 135 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 1: that unit? 136 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,480 Speaker 2: Well, I thought they were physical. 137 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 3: I thought the defensive line stepped up and did a 138 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,799 Speaker 3: great job. They were good, good fitting guys knew where 139 00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 3: their teammates were, so you'd have two or three guys 140 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 3: outside and one guy, you know, just a laying in 141 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: there for any of the guys to go through. So, 142 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,200 Speaker 3: but the fiscality is the thing for me that jumps 143 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 3: out on the film. You know, they were able to 144 00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 3: stop a really effective run game, and they had a 145 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 3: couple of good runs, but you got to look at 146 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 3: the total picture and they really did a good job 147 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 3: of containing a really good offense. 148 00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, and one guy you mentioned earlier, Steve PJ. 149 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 2: Locke. 150 00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:42,919 Speaker 1: I want to mention him for a second because you 151 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,840 Speaker 1: know he's been out the past couple days games. He's 152 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: been dealing with that angle injury. But he had a 153 00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: really great day versus the Browns. I mean seven tackles, 154 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,680 Speaker 1: he had that strip sack to the fourth quarter. It's 155 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: been great to have him back out there. 156 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:57,080 Speaker 3: It's really been great to see what he can do. 157 00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:00,440 Speaker 3: And it was a shame that he got injured because 158 00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:04,280 Speaker 3: he had had an opportunity to play several weeks ago. 159 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,719 Speaker 3: So we're finally get a chance to see what PJ. 160 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:07,320 Speaker 2: Lock is doing. 161 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 3: I got to say every time pg A Lock has played, 162 00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 3: he's made an impact and that's a great thing for him. 163 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 3: He's been so patient. You know, doesn't complain, but I 164 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 3: know he wants to be out there on the field contributing, 165 00:07:24,120 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: especially when when you see the plays that he makes 166 00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 3: and the impact that he makes, Like why why is 167 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:32,120 Speaker 3: he on the field? Right? But we have, you know, 168 00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: really great players at that position, so you know, we 169 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 3: kind of understand that. So I think we're gonna see 170 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 3: a lot of him in the future though. 171 00:07:39,480 --> 00:07:41,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're going off of that. We got to 172 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 1: do our player focus that we do every single week. 173 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:45,280 Speaker 1: So who's one guy that you want to highlight from 174 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:46,200 Speaker 1: this past game? Oh? 175 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 3: Man, it's got to be my man, GB Garrett number 176 00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 3: seventy two. He had his hands full with Miles Garrett 177 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 3: coming into this game. 178 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 2: I know everybody was talking and. 179 00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: Hopefully I don't know if he listens social media, watch 180 00:08:00,920 --> 00:08:04,280 Speaker 3: social media or not, but everybody's thinking, Miles Garrett is 181 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:05,160 Speaker 3: gonna eat well. 182 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 2: He went home with empty stommach. Garrett Boons held him down. 183 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 3: And we highlighted a play on our film Breakdown where 184 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:19,600 Speaker 3: he blocked Miles Garrett for literally eight seconds. 185 00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 2: And he just didn't quit. 186 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 3: He didn't quit and that's the type of play you 187 00:08:23,280 --> 00:08:26,680 Speaker 3: need to get to that next level. And you know, 188 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 3: it's a it's a beautiful thing. And I know Garrett 189 00:08:30,640 --> 00:08:32,400 Speaker 3: Bowles is he just got to be on cloud nine 190 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 3: right now. And it's like, if I did this to 191 00:08:37,640 --> 00:08:41,040 Speaker 3: one of the best defenders in the game right now. 192 00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 2: The rest of these guys are gonna do right. GB 193 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 2: keep it going, baby, I love it. 194 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: And it was you know, Michael Gunchi, he talked out 195 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:51,040 Speaker 1: for the game and he said something that kind of 196 00:08:51,080 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: stuck with me. He said, Garrett is going to remember 197 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,600 Speaker 1: this game for the rest of his life. 198 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 2: He should. It was. 199 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,360 Speaker 3: It was a big game and he showed up big time. 200 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:00,280 Speaker 3: He done And that's what that's what That's what the 201 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: playmakers do, right I mean, And that's one of the 202 00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,679 Speaker 3: things we had talked about earlier too, is like playmakers 203 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 3: in the big games, you got to show up and 204 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:12,320 Speaker 3: make plays. And they did that and you know, these 205 00:09:12,360 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 3: are the results of when that happens. 206 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:18,040 Speaker 1: We're going to head Steve critical road stretch here, three 207 00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 1: straight road games. Have you ever played in a stretch 208 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: that long? I know, I'm sure we did. 209 00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:24,560 Speaker 2: I'm sure we did, but I don't. 210 00:09:24,520 --> 00:09:28,120 Speaker 1: Think there's been nine in Broncos history, I believe nine 211 00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:29,640 Speaker 1: three road games. 212 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:33,880 Speaker 3: That don't seem like it's that unpopular, right, It seems 213 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 3: like that happens pretty frequently, but. 214 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,240 Speaker 1: It does not only nine, I think, so, I think 215 00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: after the merger, only nine. Well, what kind of challenges 216 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:42,760 Speaker 1: do you think kind of come with a three game 217 00:09:42,840 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: road stretch? 218 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 3: You know what, just you know, blocking everything out, and 219 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 3: well if teams aren't good at blocking out the crowd noise, 220 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 3: you know, it can become an issue. But these guys 221 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 3: have shown that they can go on the road and win, 222 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: and they just got to keep doing what they're doing 223 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 3: going And you know, I heard some of the players 224 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 3: talking about the high level of practice that they practiced 225 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,320 Speaker 3: at now, and they. 226 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:08,880 Speaker 2: Got to they got to keep it up. You know. 227 00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 3: I remember when we won our two Super Bowls, we 228 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 3: practice at high level. 229 00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:14,880 Speaker 2: So when we got to the games, it was like 230 00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 2: this is piece K. You know. 231 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,520 Speaker 3: We hopefully they have the same confidence because you know, 232 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 3: I walk by sometimes when they're practicing. Man, these guys 233 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:25,760 Speaker 3: are full tilt and and I love it. I love 234 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 3: love to see that because I know that that's going to 235 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:30,520 Speaker 3: make the game that much easier. For them, I would 236 00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:32,720 Speaker 3: say easy, but it'll make it to where the game 237 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,079 Speaker 3: slows down because they got the competition in practice. 238 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:36,559 Speaker 2: Yeah. 239 00:10:36,559 --> 00:10:39,600 Speaker 1: Absolutely, we got some meaningful games coming up here, meaningful 240 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: games in December, Steve. You love to see it. 241 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 3: You know. 242 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 1: The team's kind of taking a game by game though, 243 00:10:43,840 --> 00:10:45,680 Speaker 1: week by week. That's the mentality they're at. 244 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 3: And I got to say the coaching has been exceptional 245 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: and the players buying in. Uh, it's all it's all 246 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 3: so special, you know, because you know this is just 247 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 3: the start of something much big here. 248 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:01,840 Speaker 1: And you can feel it. 249 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, you can feel it. And they're deserving of it 250 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:06,680 Speaker 3: because they put in the work. 251 00:11:06,880 --> 00:11:08,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree.
