1
00:00:01,040 --> 00:00:03,560
Speaker 1: Late fifteen ten touchdown.

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:11,720
Speaker 2: Such looks up.

3
00:00:11,760 --> 00:00:14,880
Speaker 3: Guys, Welcome into a week fourteen edition of Chargers Weekly.

4
00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:17,840
Speaker 3: We are presented by Splittero as always, joined by the

5
00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:21,600
Speaker 3: voice of the Chargers Matt Mundy Smith. A very fun

6
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:24,400
Speaker 3: interview with Tier tr Tier Tar.

7
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,960
Speaker 1: Yeah on the way man, coming up. You're not gonna

8
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,080
Speaker 1: want to miss it. He had to get back to meetings,

9
00:00:29,120 --> 00:00:30,640
Speaker 1: so we did a little bit earlier before we got

10
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: rolling here. But he's a character. He's everything you would

11
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: think he would be based on how he plays. He

12
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,879
Speaker 1: busts his tail on the field every single snap. He's

13
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:39,760
Speaker 1: a joy to watch.

14
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:39,960
Speaker 4: You.

15
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,239
Speaker 1: No, he's limping around a little bit toward the end

16
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: of that Raider game, so I was a little bit

17
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:44,839
Speaker 1: worried about it. So just to kind of see him

18
00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 1: walking in here, bouncing around, yeah, was was important because

19
00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: I mean, look, that's that's what you got to You

20
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,400
Speaker 1: got to break that thing down against Philadelphia in the middle.

21
00:00:53,479 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: You know, you gotta get that penetration. And based on

22
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 1: what we saw against the Raiders. I know it's the Raiders,

23
00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: but but that's got to carry over. You've got to

24
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: stop this run game because if it gets going, when

25
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:06,720
Speaker 1: you've got aj Brown at Devonte Smith and Dallas got

26
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: it out there. Man, can that offense can get humming

27
00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: in a hurry?

28
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, And Tier said it starts with the running game.

29
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,920
Speaker 3: He brings an attitude to it. So that interview coming

30
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 3: up and he said, but you can't really take much

31
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 3: from the beating the Raiders.

32
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 2: It was just like, how are you gonna look beating

33
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 2: the Raiders?

34
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:23,800
Speaker 3: And despite kind of a dicey second quarter, they bounce

35
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:24,679
Speaker 3: back in that second half.

36
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:24,959
Speaker 4: Yeah.

37
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: Look, I think if you boil down what the Raiders are,

38
00:01:28,840 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: they're terrible, but they do have a pretty decent run defense.

39
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 1: It's kind of the Max Crosby might be the best

40
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: like all around edge in the game. Like he is

41
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,320
Speaker 1: so good against the run and they're run dye. I

42
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,720
Speaker 1: think was just mid pack. Everything else is dead last,

43
00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:46,920
Speaker 1: but against the run they've been solid. And I think

44
00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 1: you saw just a perfectly executed run game from Greg Roman.

45
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: Obviously with the players, but running that jumbo package with

46
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 1: Trevor Penning out there a little bit, the way they

47
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,520
Speaker 1: use Matt Locke and Tucker Fisk and they just attack

48
00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 1: the edges and I think you saw you know what

49
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 1: Kimani Videll and Jared Patterson were able to do and

50
00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 1: it's going to be probably a little bit tougher to

51
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: do that against the Eagles just because of the way

52
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: they're built and how much athleticism they have on that

53
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 1: defense to try to get to those corners. But I

54
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: think you kind of found something. And look, you know,

55
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 1: once might be a fluke or lucky, but three times

56
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:23,920
Speaker 1: to have, you know, three one hundred yard games, you know,

57
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: the most or the first time we've got three since

58
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: Melvin Gordon did it, you know, seven eight years ago,

59
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,800
Speaker 1: I think it kind of tells you that Keimani's you know,

60
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: comfortable being a bell cow. And based on you know,

61
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,079
Speaker 1: when we're recording this, whether or not we're gonna have

62
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,799
Speaker 1: a Mario Hampton out there, I'm certainly hopeful that they are.

63
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: I mean, that could be a formidable one to two

64
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: punch that can help keep the Eagles offense off the

65
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:47,080
Speaker 1: field and continue with this identity of a strong run game.

66
00:02:47,400 --> 00:02:49,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that that's what it's going to have

67
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,399
Speaker 3: to be down the stretch with Justin's injury, which we'll

68
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:55,320
Speaker 3: get into, and you know last week, I know that

69
00:02:55,440 --> 00:02:57,880
Speaker 3: every game is different, but the Bears rush for two

70
00:02:57,919 --> 00:02:58,680
Speaker 3: hundred and eighty yards.

71
00:02:58,720 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, on the eg.

72
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:02,440
Speaker 3: With Jalen Carter in the game. Yeah, Jalen Carter's not

73
00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,720
Speaker 3: playing on Monday. And if you couple that with Amari

74
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 3: and coming back, you're coming off one hundred and ninety

75
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 3: two rushing performance with Jared Patterson who had fifty four

76
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,160
Speaker 3: yards five point three up that.

77
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,440
Speaker 1: He was great, and he was a little more he

78
00:03:16,480 --> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: was a little bit more inside, you know, his runs

79
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: were a little more in those A and B gaps,

80
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 1: And like that's the thing about the Bears, right, It's

81
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,920
Speaker 1: just a different run game. It's more of that zone

82
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: read and an outside zone, whereas you know, the Chargers

83
00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,040
Speaker 1: are power and duo and let's get to the edges.

84
00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:35,400
Speaker 1: Cracked toss, you know that big that pin and pull

85
00:03:35,480 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: that Kimani had for fifty nine yards. It's a different approach.

86
00:03:40,360 --> 00:03:42,800
Speaker 1: They have not been really good running between the tackles

87
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:45,240
Speaker 1: this year. They've really been able to eat. It's kind

88
00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,240
Speaker 1: of what's been weird about this run game is they're

89
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 1: super effective on the edges and then you look between

90
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 1: the tackles and it's kind of there in the bottom

91
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 1: three or four, but they're way up there on the edges,

92
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,560
Speaker 1: So it's kind of like, can you make that work

93
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: against this this Eagles team him? And I think based

94
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 1: on you know, with Malcolm Konz who's incredibly athletic, with

95
00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: like we said, Max Crosby's who's a good at set

96
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:08,280
Speaker 1: in the edge and against the run as any edge,

97
00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: I think that's encouraging that maybe that is something you

98
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: can continue this week.

99
00:04:11,600 --> 00:04:13,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, we haven't seen omar and since Week five, so

100
00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 3: you hope he plays on Monday. The first injury report

101
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 3: comes out Thursday, so you'll see that Thursday, Friday, Saturday

102
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 3: in advance of Monday's game. Justin Herbert tough as they come.

103
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,560
Speaker 3: Really no breaking news there. He did have that surgery

104
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 3: on Monday. One hundred and fifty yards two touchdowns at

105
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 3: an interception against the Raiders.

106
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:35,960
Speaker 2: It was a game where they didn't really need to

107
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 2: rely on his arm much.

108
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 3: But you know, there's still is going to be some

109
00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 3: concern on that non throwing hand going under center and

110
00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:44,720
Speaker 3: just how it's going to hold up on Monday if

111
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 3: he does indeed play, which we expect him to.

112
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:48,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I thought like even though that's the thing

113
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,840
Speaker 1: about the box score and people may look and be like,

114
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:54,120
Speaker 1: oh wow, he only threw for theirs. Just critical plays though,

115
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,920
Speaker 1: like those passes critical. I'm just pulling it up right

116
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 1: here because I want to make sure I get it right.

117
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:00,719
Speaker 1: Twelve of seventeen on third down, like, and some of

118
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 1: those were runs, but a lot of those were passes.

119
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: Keenan's first three receptions were all on third down and

120
00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,000
Speaker 1: all of them went for first downs. Trey Harris had

121
00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,520
Speaker 1: a huge, huge first down grab. Remember Q sliding to

122
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: the ground on a third down, caught that ball behind

123
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 1: him a little bit to tap to make a first down.

124
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 1: So like that was the thing about the passing game

125
00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 1: is the run game was so effective that it was

126
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: able to buy justin a little bit of time in

127
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: those third downs that you end up like I said,

128
00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: going twelve of seventeen, they had twenty two first downs

129
00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,080
Speaker 1: in that game. They just twelve for the Raiders, And

130
00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:33,920
Speaker 1: I just it really was one of the most And

131
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 1: again I get it, the Raiders are not good, but

132
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: it was really one of the most complete games they've

133
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: played all season. And that goes for special teams as well. Right,

134
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,159
Speaker 1: Cam Dicker just perfect again, and I thought it was

135
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:48,280
Speaker 1: the best that we've seen the kickoff returns looked all

136
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,280
Speaker 1: look all season. You know, it was the first time

137
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 1: we've really seen kind of that explosion from from Darius Davis.

138
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 1: And you know, I think his returns in that game

139
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:58,680
Speaker 1: were in like the twenty nine range when prior they

140
00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: were on the twenty four yard range, so carried over.

141
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:02,800
Speaker 1: You know, they had the bye week, they said they

142
00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,640
Speaker 1: were going to spend two weeks working on it. I

143
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:06,560
Speaker 1: know we'll get into some of the personnel stuff, Chris,

144
00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 1: but I think you saw the fruits of their labor

145
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,280
Speaker 1: and that Yeah, they were focused and they did get

146
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 1: this thing kind of figured out in a number of

147
00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,560
Speaker 1: different categories. You can only play the team that's in

148
00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:18,479
Speaker 1: front of you, and you just hope that it carries over.

149
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're healthier too. I mean, I think that by

150
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,480
Speaker 2: just on so many different levels.

151
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:26,480
Speaker 3: We talked about just how you know, a week before

152
00:06:26,520 --> 00:06:30,280
Speaker 3: everybody going to training camp, Brazil Hall of Fame game,

153
00:06:30,440 --> 00:06:33,320
Speaker 3: all the extra East Coast trips to start the year,

154
00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:36,200
Speaker 3: and we talk about the offensive line.

155
00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:36,800
Speaker 2: Every single week.

156
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 4: Money.

157
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:41,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, how about let's give them their flowers for that performance.

158
00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,400
Speaker 3: Jamari goes to left tackle. Everybody played really, really well,

159
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,560
Speaker 3: and again it's the Raiders, but you do have Max

160
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 3: Crosby on that line. Yeah, you mentioned their run defense,

161
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:56,200
Speaker 3: like the fact that there's ten guys who are healthy

162
00:06:56,279 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 3: now and putting Jamari kicking him out to left tackle

163
00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 3: seems like if they may have found that formula down

164
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 3: the stretch with Tho Joel coming back.

165
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:05,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know you look, and again it's not a

166
00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,920
Speaker 1: bad front. It's not a bet Butler solid, Koons's solid.

167
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 1: Tyree Wilson can rush the passer. Obviously, we know Max

168
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,720
Speaker 1: Crosby can wreck games. I thought it was Bradley's best

169
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 1: game by far. By far, it was his best game.

170
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,720
Speaker 1: I thought it was Zion's best game. He was pulling

171
00:07:20,840 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 1: all over the place and cleaning guys out, and I

172
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 1: think that went a long way to helping Jamari out.

173
00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:27,920
Speaker 1: I felt like it was not just Jamari, but it

174
00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:30,400
Speaker 1: was Jamari and Zion. I would group those two together

175
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 1: and the way they played on that half, and I

176
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 1: think it spoke to what coach said throughout the course

177
00:07:35,800 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 1: of the week that they needed to find a five

178
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 1: that they can settle on. You know, it's not Deculus

179
00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: this week, Penny this week sall you're this week Becton's

180
00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,120
Speaker 1: in Becden's not, and it's Bobby Hard, it's not Trey Pipkins.

181
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:49,160
Speaker 1: So I know a lot of that is health driven,

182
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 1: but it's the best that we've seen the offensive line

183
00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: without Joe Alt and so if that's where because remember,

184
00:07:57,440 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: you know, we heard about Jamari losing weight in the offseason,

185
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,320
Speaker 1: and I think based on how he looked at guard,

186
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,960
Speaker 1: he was kind of getting pushed around a little bit,

187
00:08:04,000 --> 00:08:06,840
Speaker 1: and so I think we saw some of that that

188
00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,880
Speaker 1: lighter body weight of slure in this game. The way

189
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,680
Speaker 1: he was moving, you know, on that big run. I

190
00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,840
Speaker 1: know he didn't necessarily clean out the block, but he's

191
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,840
Speaker 1: still kicking out on that pin from from Ladd and

192
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: Trey Harris, I think where the guys who set that

193
00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: interior edge. He's still out there running a little more

194
00:08:24,120 --> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: fleet of foot than we're used to seeing.

195
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 4: So it's probably the.

196
00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 1: Best spot for him, and you can always commit resources

197
00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,640
Speaker 1: over there, you know. I thought Keimani did a great

198
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: job in pass pro in helping out when when maybe

199
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 1: it got a little leaky over there for JAMAI. But

200
00:08:39,120 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 1: I think I don't think you can overstate how important

201
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:45,640
Speaker 1: it is if that group is settled and if you

202
00:08:45,679 --> 00:08:48,760
Speaker 1: can keep them healthy. Just it's there's so much that

203
00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 1: goes into it, you know, and knowing how someone plays

204
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,360
Speaker 1: and where they tend to lose leverage or how they're

205
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,520
Speaker 1: gonna reset if they get beat, and you know those

206
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,079
Speaker 1: sort of things. They were running stunts, Zion was picking

207
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 1: them up. So I think it's it's you know, a

208
00:09:01,960 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 1: lot of people are just going Jamai jamar, Yeah, that

209
00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:06,440
Speaker 1: was great. But to me, it was the collective, all

210
00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,599
Speaker 1: five of them together, I think, and you know, and

211
00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,320
Speaker 1: there were some leaks here and there. I'm not going

212
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 1: to get into where, but but I thought it was,

213
00:09:13,679 --> 00:09:15,800
Speaker 1: you know, kind of the best collective effort we've seen

214
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: without Joe Alt out there.

215
00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 3: Just think of the things we talk about in August,

216
00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:26,680
Speaker 3: even July training camp, all Slater, Hampton, Harris a healthy

217
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,319
Speaker 3: justin both tackles out. We haven't seen Hampton since week five,

218
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,720
Speaker 3: hopefully we see him Monday. Naji pops as Achilles week three.

219
00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 3: It's it's these players that you don't really necessarily talk

220
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:43,559
Speaker 3: about in August that have made the biggest really leaps

221
00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:46,599
Speaker 3: and also just keeping the season together, like Kimani, I

222
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,720
Speaker 3: don't think you can overstate just the importance of what

223
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,839
Speaker 3: Kimani has done in the absence of Amrion Hampton and

224
00:09:51,920 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 3: Naji Harris, just to keep the train on the tracks.

225
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 2: And he's he's proven himself.

226
00:09:56,920 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 3: And now the fact that you get a Marion back,

227
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 3: you can also count on Kemodi down the stretch to

228
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 3: kind of be the one A. So you know, all

229
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 3: these players across the offensive line, you know, from Jamari

230
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:11,720
Speaker 3: at left tackle Zion questions about the interior offensive line.

231
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 3: I thought Zion played great, like you said. And then

232
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 3: you have guys on the bench that have at least

233
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 3: started games with hard, dculous and penning. So it's just

234
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 3: it's these kind of these unsung players that keep a

235
00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 3: season together. And now we will really see if this

236
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:30,400
Speaker 3: team belongs to the tournament or not.

237
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: Look, it's not gonna be easy. The Eagles for favor

238
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,400
Speaker 1: this week, and I suspect that's what we're going to see.

239
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,079
Speaker 1: You know, I think that the Texans line will be interesting.

240
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: I think it will depend on each how each team

241
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: is playing. But when you're talking about traveling New Kansas

242
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 1: City in Dallas, I think we know that charge is

243
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,199
Speaker 1: probably gonna go in as dogs and traveling to Denver,

244
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna go in as dogs. We already know

245
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: they're a dog this week. And like I said, based

246
00:10:52,600 --> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 1: on how these next three games go against you know,

247
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,959
Speaker 1: Affilly at home and on the road, against the Chiefs

248
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,839
Speaker 1: and against the Cowboys, that's it's kind of what will

249
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,280
Speaker 1: probably paint the picture of what the folks think is

250
00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:08,199
Speaker 1: supposed to happen against the Texans. But you know, you

251
00:11:08,320 --> 00:11:10,360
Speaker 1: hit on a good point, and that is next man up.

252
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:12,640
Speaker 1: You know. It's just it has been a next man

253
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:16,160
Speaker 1: up mentality all season long for this team. And when

254
00:11:16,200 --> 00:11:18,640
Speaker 1: you have Keimani and Jarrett Patterson running for nearly six

255
00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 1: yards per carry and having to do it in a

256
00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:25,040
Speaker 1: game where Justin Herbert's got a broken hand and is

257
00:11:25,080 --> 00:11:28,120
Speaker 1: wearing a glove. It's limiting his mobility. He's doing toss

258
00:11:28,160 --> 00:11:30,200
Speaker 1: with one hand, he's handing off to his right with

259
00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:32,360
Speaker 1: his with his right hand. It's really awkward. And they

260
00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,920
Speaker 1: made it work. And you would assume that their opponent

261
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:37,880
Speaker 1: was going to commit all their resources to stop in

262
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:40,959
Speaker 1: the run and they still couldn't. And this has been

263
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 1: a this has been a group that's struggled to run

264
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 1: the ball, that struggled to block it up to be

265
00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 1: able to run the ball. And so I think part

266
00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:52,840
Speaker 1: of that is scheme, and I think you're finding scheme

267
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,320
Speaker 1: working in that bye week and this will be a

268
00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: big test. It'll be even without Jalen Carter, It'll still

269
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:01,000
Speaker 1: be a big test against this Eagles group that's you know,

270
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 1: at every level of the defense and can do it,

271
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 1: believe it or not. You know, they gave up to

272
00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,040
Speaker 1: eighty I know, like you said to Manangui and to

273
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:11,040
Speaker 1: DeAndre Swift, but it's it's a team that can slow

274
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:13,520
Speaker 1: the rundown and they've just kind of found themselves in

275
00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,360
Speaker 1: a funk, and you hope you can take advantage of

276
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,120
Speaker 1: that that you know, they continue to find themselves in

277
00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:22,160
Speaker 1: a funk because they're not the most you know, the

278
00:12:22,240 --> 00:12:24,680
Speaker 1: media is not kind to them, their fans are not

279
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: kind to them. As we know, Phillie Sports Radio is

280
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:29,079
Speaker 1: on fire right now. Yeah, last time I heard about,

281
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,719
Speaker 1: you know, a coach is getting their house agg my god,

282
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:33,480
Speaker 1: I felt like it was thirty years ago. That's what

283
00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:35,400
Speaker 1: they were doing. But you know, leave it to Philly

284
00:12:35,400 --> 00:12:38,600
Speaker 1: to do that. So like to me, it's just take

285
00:12:38,640 --> 00:12:42,240
Speaker 1: advantage of that, don't let the Eagles dig themselves out.

286
00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,360
Speaker 1: It's still a team that won the Super Bowl and

287
00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 1: absolutely housed the Chiefs in that game, so you know

288
00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:50,960
Speaker 1: what they're capable of. But just keep the negative vibes going, man,

289
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 1: and that means jumping on them early.

290
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, charges four and oh in primetime this year.

291
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,679
Speaker 3: And you know, Maddy, I was thinking about Justin Herbert

292
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,160
Speaker 3: and just his pain threshold. There's so many parallels, at

293
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,560
Speaker 3: least for me and you around Kobe too, But just

294
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,920
Speaker 3: Kobe played with so many injuries that you just didn't

295
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 3: even think about because he didn't show any emotion about it, right,

296
00:13:10,760 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 3: Like just how nonchalant Justin was about breaking his hand,

297
00:13:14,320 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: coming back and still performing, never any excuses, never any wincing,

298
00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,920
Speaker 3: And I just I look at him as a guy

299
00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 3: that fans probably just depend on, Like this guy just

300
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,600
Speaker 3: had surgery on Monday. He's probably gonna have to wear

301
00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:32,000
Speaker 3: some sort of cast, and we're just expecting him to

302
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,920
Speaker 3: be Justin Herbert Monday, just exactly how he expects to

303
00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:35,959
Speaker 3: be Justin Herbert Monday.

304
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,280
Speaker 1: But it's kind of crazy, and I think it'll come

305
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,000
Speaker 1: down to whether or not they'll let him. You know,

306
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:41,880
Speaker 1: you know that he wants to get out there, but

307
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: I think it's important to prepare people for the doctor

308
00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:47,160
Speaker 1: saying not happening.

309
00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:47,480
Speaker 4: Dude.

310
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 1: You know, there's not been enough healing in that hand,

311
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:52,280
Speaker 1: and we got to play it safe, you know, because

312
00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: I would assume there's some metal that's been put in

313
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 1: there and you got to make sure that takes and

314
00:13:55,559 --> 00:13:57,560
Speaker 1: you don't do some serious damage to that thing. So

315
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,600
Speaker 1: that's a possibility. And I just bring it up because

316
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 1: the guy only threw one pass. But I thought Shrey

317
00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:05,280
Speaker 1: handled the offense great. You know, I thought he played

318
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:09,240
Speaker 1: fantastic in that spell. You know, you're talking about starting

319
00:14:09,679 --> 00:14:12,600
Speaker 1: at your own seven, and you drive a team all

320
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 1: the way out to you know, a plus one to

321
00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,720
Speaker 1: the opponent's forty nine yard line, and on a second

322
00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,760
Speaker 1: and ten from inside your own seven, just like it

323
00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,680
Speaker 1: was nothing, drop back delivers a strike to the left sideline,

324
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,800
Speaker 1: picks up seven yards and you know, scrambles on a run.

325
00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,520
Speaker 1: And I think you saw that little package that he's

326
00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:34,040
Speaker 1: comfortable running and how Greg Roman adjusted his play calling.

327
00:14:34,080 --> 00:14:37,560
Speaker 1: It became that RPO offense and that can be formidable too,

328
00:14:37,760 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: you know, So I think for to just kind of

329
00:14:41,720 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 1: prepare just in case and I hope it's not the case,

330
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:47,000
Speaker 1: but if in fact it is, I feel pretty comfortable

331
00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:49,360
Speaker 1: about what we saw from Trey in the preseason and

332
00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 1: what we saw when he was pressed into duty with

333
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:53,360
Speaker 1: no reps, with the ones to go out there and

334
00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,560
Speaker 1: move a team, you know, forty four yards and put

335
00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 1: him in position to have a first and goal from

336
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: the one, you know, on that explosive past to Ronde Gadsden.

337
00:15:01,920 --> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: So certainly encouraging there, and I would I would be

338
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:08,360
Speaker 1: really surprised if we didn't see a little bit of

339
00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: him regardless. Yeah, and just some court yardage when you've

340
00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,720
Speaker 1: got to get under center, you know, depending on what

341
00:15:14,760 --> 00:15:16,760
Speaker 1: that surgery was like and what the cast is like,

342
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 1: it's on his hand. It's kind of hard to imagine,

343
00:15:19,200 --> 00:15:21,440
Speaker 1: you know, if that thing's going to be limited mobility,

344
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 1: him putting that hand under Bradley Boseman to take that

345
00:15:23,840 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 1: snap under center when you're trying to get some sneaks

346
00:15:26,080 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: or or you know, because that's really like the the

347
00:15:31,000 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 1: nucleus of this run game is from under center. It's

348
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:36,720
Speaker 1: not a pistol or a shotgun based run game. This

349
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:39,560
Speaker 1: is old school power God's play, you know, And so

350
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:43,040
Speaker 1: I'll be interested to see if, in fact, there is

351
00:15:43,080 --> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: at least some tray running out there to get under

352
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 1: center and get this this run game kind of you know,

353
00:15:49,480 --> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: moving and executed the way that Greg Roman wants it.

354
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, no doubt, Tier and you and I got into

355
00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,120
Speaker 3: defense a little bit, just a couple of quick things

356
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,840
Speaker 3: before we get to the Tier interview. Tully Man like

357
00:16:02,120 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 3: he popped off the stat sheet on Sundays. He's been

358
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:10,360
Speaker 3: awesome all year, but just his motor I almost feel like,

359
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 3: you know, Khalil is the he's the alpha in the room.

360
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:15,000
Speaker 2: But like, I mean, this is Tooley's time.

361
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's been one of the best edges in the game.

362
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: I'm looking at it now. I mean, he's got what

363
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,360
Speaker 1: does he have for pressures? It's got to be plus

364
00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: probably sixty at this point.

365
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 2: His statlands crazy on some.

366
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,360
Speaker 1: Let's see, so he has now got total pressure fifty

367
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 1: five pressures. His pressure rate is eighteen percent. I know

368
00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:37,120
Speaker 1: those numbers might not mean anything to a lot of people,

369
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,640
Speaker 1: but just to put it in context, that's elite level.

370
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,600
Speaker 1: You know. When you're when you're at fifty five through

371
00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:46,600
Speaker 1: eleven twelve games, now that's you're going to be, you know,

372
00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: pushing seventy seventy five eighty pressures for the season, and

373
00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 1: tight ends can't stop him. And that's what you ask

374
00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,280
Speaker 1: of elite defensive edge rushers, right, If they put a

375
00:16:56,280 --> 00:16:59,560
Speaker 1: tight end on you, bad move, big mistake. And Tully

376
00:16:59,600 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 1: has shown that repeatedly week in and week out. And

377
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,840
Speaker 1: then I love you know when they kick him inside. Man,

378
00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,359
Speaker 1: when you get him inside and you've got Khalil and

379
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:11,840
Speaker 1: Oway on the edges, he is an absolute menace to

380
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: these interior linemen and can wreck a game. And he

381
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,719
Speaker 1: did right four tackles for lost, two of them, sacks,

382
00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:18,200
Speaker 1: a couple run stops.

383
00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 2: That beat down on the first series.

384
00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: Got down on the first series. Yeah, he's he's he's everything.

385
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he's an everything defensive lineman. And I

386
00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: can only imagine for Mike Elston and and Jesse man

387
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: or how much they love being able to move him

388
00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 1: around and that, you know, that's set the tone. I

389
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:37,520
Speaker 1: thought Khalil was incredible set in the edge, and that's

390
00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: kind of what we saw in a lot of that

391
00:17:39,680 --> 00:17:42,720
Speaker 1: that game was just how much they were able to

392
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,760
Speaker 1: sort of not get too far upfield. It was something

393
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:48,600
Speaker 1: that kind of got him against Jacksonville.

394
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 3: I was gonna say, like, you got you you and

395
00:17:50,880 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 3: DJ what what did you guys see outside of that? Uh,

396
00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:58,159
Speaker 3: that was different from what we saw in Jacksonville.

397
00:17:57,640 --> 00:17:58,400
Speaker 2: With just the defense.

398
00:17:58,760 --> 00:18:02,160
Speaker 1: Jacksonville just was a you know, it just started going

399
00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,440
Speaker 1: down the tracks and you couldn't stop it. You know,

400
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 1: they they got running early, and I think guys got

401
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: a little panicked and you're just kind of getting away

402
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:12,639
Speaker 1: from what you do and you're getting too deep and

403
00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,919
Speaker 1: you're crashing inside and those edges are opening up, and

404
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 1: it just got got away from it. And I think

405
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,120
Speaker 1: there was a very concerted effort in this game. Bud

406
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,199
Speaker 1: Duprez really come on lately. You know, he had that

407
00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 1: sack and and he's one of the better edge setters

408
00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,720
Speaker 1: out there. So you get hum and Khalil out there

409
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:30,359
Speaker 1: and good things happen. So and look, Saquan has not

410
00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: had a great year. He's really struggled. This offensive line

411
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:34,159
Speaker 1: has been beating up.

412
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:35,159
Speaker 2: Offensive is different.

413
00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 1: Yeah, And so I think also part of it is

414
00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 1: that Landon Dickerson's been in and out. We'll see whether

415
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: or not Lane Johnson is back. He's listed as questionable.

416
00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,880
Speaker 2: I hope he's not Jurons has been hurt too.

417
00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:47,640
Speaker 1: Jurgens has been in and out, So I think there's

418
00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: that's a big part of it, kind of what we

419
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 1: were talking about, right, They've not been able to get

420
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:54,880
Speaker 1: any continuity. So, uh, Jalen Hurts is not running the ball.

421
00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,080
Speaker 1: You look back at his game log last year and

422
00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: you're seeing forty yards this week, fifty yards this week,

423
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,960
Speaker 1: sixty yards this week. You go through this year and

424
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 1: it's like twenty twenty, low thirty negative ten, Like it's

425
00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:11,120
Speaker 1: just not he would rush for a touchdown per week

426
00:19:11,200 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 1: sometimes two. I think he's got through two or three

427
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:18,560
Speaker 1: tds in the last ten weeks. So that's what you

428
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,919
Speaker 1: got to start with. Limit that because we know it's

429
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 1: not you know, we've we've heard enough in the media

430
00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,040
Speaker 1: that they're not throwing the ball over the yard.

431
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 4: Now.

432
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 3: A J.

433
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:27,359
Speaker 1: Brown had a great game last week against the Bears,

434
00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 1: but it was kind of garbage.

435
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:30,200
Speaker 2: You know, there were a couple ks scored the last

436
00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 2: two weeks and they lost.

437
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:33,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, so I think just you know, the Bears had

438
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,480
Speaker 1: put it on him so badly that it just kind

439
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,760
Speaker 1: of became almost like a prevent style defense that just

440
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: let him milk milk the clock and play that sort

441
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:46,399
Speaker 1: of way. But again, when you look at that depth

442
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 1: chart and you see that offensive line, you know with Dickerson,

443
00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,920
Speaker 1: with my Latta, with Johnson, You look in the backfield

444
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:55,040
Speaker 1: and it's Hurts in Saquon. You look on the edges

445
00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,399
Speaker 1: and it's Aj Brown and DeVante Smith. You look at

446
00:19:57,440 --> 00:19:58,920
Speaker 1: the tight end and it's Goddard. And then you look

447
00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:02,119
Speaker 1: at defense and it's Bonn and I know Carter's not playing,

448
00:20:02,119 --> 00:20:05,520
Speaker 1: but it's Davis, it's Dean. It's like it's a stacked

449
00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: freaking team.

450
00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:06,520
Speaker 4: Man.

451
00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 1: It is still a ton of talent, which is why

452
00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 1: I think just getting off to a good start and

453
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,600
Speaker 1: trying to get some infighting going on over there is

454
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: is sort of that path to victory.

455
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 3: So every other year, right, they go to the Super

456
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,960
Speaker 3: Bowl with Stiching as the ROC former Charges offensive coordinator.

457
00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 3: Then they have a bad you think Brian Johnson's the OC.

458
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,639
Speaker 3: Then Kellen Moore, former Charge offensive coordinator, comes in, they

459
00:20:28,640 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 3: win the Super Bowl and now they they promoted from

460
00:20:31,600 --> 00:20:34,520
Speaker 3: within again and it just doesn't look the same offensively,

461
00:20:34,560 --> 00:20:36,800
Speaker 3: So shout out to former Chargers ocs.

462
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, and't feel like.

463
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 1: And more right, that's been there, that's been their their

464
00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 1: their formula. It's and again like it will not surprise

465
00:20:45,760 --> 00:20:47,960
Speaker 1: me at all if if the Eagles just kind of

466
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:50,840
Speaker 1: figure this thing out and start tearing it up, because

467
00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,280
Speaker 1: they're just that talented there, you know. And and I

468
00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: will say this, you know, the one thing offensively to

469
00:20:57,680 --> 00:21:01,160
Speaker 1: be sort of to keep an eye on is we

470
00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: know what Vic Fangio was able to do to the

471
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: to Herbert and some of these offenses when he was

472
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: the head coach in Denver. It was always a tough

473
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:13,720
Speaker 1: it was off out. So he the way he coaches

474
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:18,000
Speaker 1: defense can give you know, this team some problems. So

475
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:19,720
Speaker 1: that's why I think that run game is going to

476
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:22,320
Speaker 1: be so critical. You know, with those two high shelves

477
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:24,800
Speaker 1: that he's going to play with, the quarters, he's going

478
00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 1: to play with the zones, and you know, the simulated pressure,

479
00:21:27,640 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: all that stuff that he loves to do can always

480
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:32,439
Speaker 1: be a challenge, especially when you have players that are that.

481
00:21:32,480 --> 00:21:34,359
Speaker 2: Good and he was he was the DC in Miami.

482
00:21:34,400 --> 00:21:35,960
Speaker 3: I remember that Week one game two where they were

483
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,679
Speaker 3: able to run the football a little bit and win

484
00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 3: win at the end. So yeah, so Vic and Justin

485
00:21:40,840 --> 00:21:43,880
Speaker 3: they know each other pretty well and obviously coach Harball knows.

486
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,639
Speaker 3: Vic Fangio vertell no doubt. Let's get to this interview

00:22:35,359 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 4: basketball movies? I like a butter room?

504
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:41,600
Speaker 1: Okay? Yeah, Hoosiers? You ever seen Hoosiers?

505
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:42,400
Speaker 4: Hoosiers?

506
00:22:42,480 --> 00:22:47,680
Speaker 1: Yea blue Chips, blue Chips Chips. I'm an old man,

507
00:22:47,800 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: so those are like Hoosiers Blue Chips, blue Chips shocks

508
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:55,720
Speaker 1: in it. Uh, it's all about kind of bad recruiting Hoosiers.

509
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 4: The story.

510
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,240
Speaker 1: What's happening now exactly basketball? But hey, there we go out.

511
00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:00,720
Speaker 4: It's good start.

512
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,680
Speaker 2: Uh, let's get to this final five weeks.

513
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 4: Man?

514
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 3: What was it like to get back from the bye,

515
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,600
Speaker 3: beat the Raiders and then December football?

516
00:23:08,640 --> 00:23:10,000
Speaker 2: Everybody five hundred and above?

517
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 5: Uh, I mean I think it was really important, you know,

518
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,400
Speaker 5: definitely after the bye, you know, we got some time

519
00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,200
Speaker 5: to rest, you know, recouper rate and coming off the bay,

520
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:19,760
Speaker 5: you know what I'm saying. Playing the Raiders, it was

521
00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 5: just like you know what I'm saying and everything, because

522
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:23,520
Speaker 5: you know, we had a we had a pretty big

523
00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 5: loss that you know, I'm pretty sure everybody won it back,

524
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,560
Speaker 5: and uh, you know, you gotta you gotta win the

525
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:30,600
Speaker 5: ones that you gotta win, the ones you're sposed to win,

526
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,800
Speaker 5: you feel me. So it was it was huge to

527
00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:35,040
Speaker 5: come out there and put up a dominant performance on defense.

528
00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:36,680
Speaker 5: You know, I don't know how many sex we had,

529
00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,040
Speaker 5: so a lot, a lot so like which is uh,

530
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,520
Speaker 5: which is always good. You know, it's good to go

531
00:23:41,520 --> 00:23:42,960
Speaker 5: out there set the tone as the defense.

532
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 1: So bigger than the sacks was the I think it

533
00:23:45,520 --> 00:23:47,840
Speaker 1: was one point seven or maybe two point one yards

534
00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:50,800
Speaker 1: per carry, just that run defense. And know what was

535
00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,320
Speaker 1: what was different in what you guys did out there

536
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,480
Speaker 1: against the Raiders because it just seemed like they had

537
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:56,959
Speaker 1: they had no chance, they had nothing going on.

538
00:23:57,040 --> 00:23:59,119
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's just an attitude of mindset, you know.

539
00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,119
Speaker 5: I think, uh, like me personal, I think football, we

540
00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:03,520
Speaker 5: starts with violence and it's gonna you know, obviously it

541
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 5: ends with violence, you know, and the more violent person

542
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:08,320
Speaker 5: throughout the course of the play is always gonna It's

543
00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,480
Speaker 5: always normally it's gonna work out nine times out of

544
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:12,560
Speaker 5: ten and in favor. So I think we were we

545
00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 5: were the more violent team, the more physical physically team,

546
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:18,639
Speaker 5: physically sound team. And the run game there we had

547
00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,960
Speaker 5: Hella hatched the ball, people running out of the stack.

548
00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:24,120
Speaker 5: So you know, it was it was just all in all,

549
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 5: great defense effort.

550
00:24:25,560 --> 00:24:27,439
Speaker 2: So many guys you could point to on that defense.

551
00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:28,280
Speaker 2: It had great games.

552
00:24:28,320 --> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 3: But I just look at like the relentlessness of Tully, right,

553
00:24:32,040 --> 00:24:36,000
Speaker 3: he gets double digit sacks already entering week fourteen.

554
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,879
Speaker 2: And uh, he said something after the game that was

555
00:24:37,920 --> 00:24:38,960
Speaker 2: just like listen, we have.

556
00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:41,879
Speaker 3: To practice like we play, and we have to have

557
00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 3: really basically just stacked days of really good practice. How

558
00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 3: important are these practice days especially in December as you

559
00:24:49,119 --> 00:24:51,600
Speaker 3: guys look at all these opponents that are all playoff

560
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:52,520
Speaker 3: teams down stretch.

561
00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:55,439
Speaker 5: I mean, I think the practice is extremely important. You know,

562
00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 5: like Tully said, like you said, you got to practice

563
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,879
Speaker 5: like you play. And you know, I'm a believer in uh,

564
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 5: you know, preparation prepares you for the game, and you

565
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,520
Speaker 5: know it takes away nerves and like it makes you

566
00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:07,240
Speaker 5: more confident.

567
00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:09,280
Speaker 4: So yeah, is.

568
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,560
Speaker 1: It kind of like muscle memory for you when you

569
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,240
Speaker 1: get held? Like when you get held, we know you

570
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:19,080
Speaker 1: get held, it's just it's arms and stuff. Do you

571
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: know that you're doing that or is that just a

572
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:22,159
Speaker 1: conditioned response when you go.

573
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,120
Speaker 5: I think it's kind of like, uh, I think it's

574
00:25:25,160 --> 00:25:26,560
Speaker 5: just kind of like me trying to shed the block

575
00:25:26,600 --> 00:25:28,640
Speaker 5: and strain to the ball, So kind of it could

576
00:25:28,640 --> 00:25:31,280
Speaker 5: look a certain way, but it's it's really me trying

577
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 5: to get effort to get off the block.

578
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,240
Speaker 1: So yeah, because it's not like you're doing it to

579
00:25:35,280 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 1: the ref. It's just but it announces I'm being held,

580
00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,320
Speaker 1: like I think more than any other defensive playment on

581
00:25:42,359 --> 00:25:44,439
Speaker 1: the team, that's what. And you know we're calling it

582
00:25:44,480 --> 00:25:46,640
Speaker 1: from seven stories in the air and you can see

583
00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 1: it as clear as that.

584
00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:51,040
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's It's a violent sport and you

585
00:25:51,160 --> 00:25:53,119
Speaker 5: definitely gotta you definitely gotta put some effort to get

586
00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 5: off some of them damn blocks.

587
00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:54,760
Speaker 4: Sure.

588
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 3: You know, a couple of weeks ago you alluded to

589
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 3: it Jacksonvillage that didn't look like the same evens that

590
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:02,360
Speaker 3: we saw at the beginning of the year, and especially

591
00:26:02,880 --> 00:26:07,320
Speaker 3: last Sunday. What do you attribute kind of the ups

592
00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:10,280
Speaker 3: and downs and how do you keep that consistent performance

593
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:11,320
Speaker 3: down stretch?

594
00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 4: I mean, I think just being consistent.

595
00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:17,399
Speaker 5: It starts to, like obviously said, practice preparation and just

596
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,719
Speaker 5: working on the small fundamental details. You know, you can

597
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,719
Speaker 5: never rip this small details too many times.

598
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: What happens with your game based because it's it's not

599
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,280
Speaker 1: necessarily hockey shifts a lot of times, there's just different

600
00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:30,920
Speaker 1: guys that are coming in next to you. Jesse likes

601
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:33,280
Speaker 1: to rotate a lot of guys through. Do you have

602
00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:35,639
Speaker 1: to adjust the way that you're playing a snap based

603
00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:37,320
Speaker 1: on who's next to you?

604
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:39,959
Speaker 4: Nah? Nah, I wouldn't say so.

605
00:26:40,119 --> 00:26:43,800
Speaker 5: I mean, I guess it would depending on like if

606
00:26:43,840 --> 00:26:46,359
Speaker 5: it's past or run, but more so no, not for

607
00:26:46,400 --> 00:26:48,639
Speaker 5: the run, you know, I would just you know what

608
00:26:48,680 --> 00:26:50,120
Speaker 5: I'm saying, Like, I just go out there and try

609
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,159
Speaker 5: to set the tone no matter who's beside me.

610
00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:52,760
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

611
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,720
Speaker 1: The getoffs A sorry, Chris. The get off certainly suggests

612
00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 1: that when it comes to just kind of every snap,

613
00:26:59,760 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 1: is that your initial instinct is just to get upfield.

614
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,320
Speaker 1: Does it rotate? You know, based on like you said,

615
00:27:05,560 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: runner pass, because it does seem like of all the guys, dude,

616
00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:09,680
Speaker 1: no one's got better burst than you do it.

617
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 5: That I kind of feel, like, like I said, depending

618
00:27:12,520 --> 00:27:14,640
Speaker 5: on the play call man. So like some players if

619
00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:17,600
Speaker 5: they calls for penetration, some players has caused me the

620
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 5: knock it out of the person in front of me.

621
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:22,439
Speaker 5: So so it's all based off of that.

622
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:27,399
Speaker 3: This is a degree of nastiness that this defensive line possesses.

623
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,600
Speaker 3: I looked at that Steelers game and I came out

624
00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:35,400
Speaker 3: of that thinking if Chargers are gonna make Hay in January.

625
00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:37,120
Speaker 2: It's going to be behind that defense. How much pride

626
00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:38,120
Speaker 2: do you guys take.

627
00:27:37,880 --> 00:27:40,159
Speaker 3: And be in the unit, knowing you have Justin on

628
00:27:40,160 --> 00:27:42,800
Speaker 3: the other side, but being the unit to carry the day.

629
00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:43,680
Speaker 4: It's huge. Man.

630
00:27:43,760 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 5: You know, we got a lot of a lot of

631
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 5: players that get hatched to the ball to hit the

632
00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:50,480
Speaker 5: fire out of people. You know, DP DJ, you know Mac,

633
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:53,280
Speaker 5: you know Tooley's getting after it like you know. So,

634
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,119
Speaker 5: I think that speeds volumes to the defense. Those are

635
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,760
Speaker 5: the leaders, you know what I'm saying. They speak volumes.

636
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,119
Speaker 5: We all all look up to them. You know what

637
00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,000
Speaker 5: I'm saying. They're they're setting the tone.

638
00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:05,720
Speaker 4: You know that.

639
00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 3: It's all right, let us it's it's it's uh, it's

Speaker 2: I'm a type one diabetic. Tier my bad? Do we

00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:17,960

700
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:17,840

Speaker 1: You know?

703
00:30:23,080 --> 00:30:25,560
Speaker 3: You know you mentioned all the duco's and just the

704
00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:29,280
Speaker 3: different stops you beat the two teams that you played

705
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,360
Speaker 3: for in the NFL this year, and the Titans and

706
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,280
Speaker 3: the Dolphins, and then when you came in last year,

707
00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,000
Speaker 3: it just felt like you fit from the beginning, and

708
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,120
Speaker 3: it seemed like everybody wanted you hear and you're recruiting

709
00:30:39,120 --> 00:30:41,360
Speaker 3: guys to be here. What was it about this spot

710
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:42,840
Speaker 3: that kind of made it feel like home.

711
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 5: I mean, I guess you're gonna just feel like that

712
00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:46,760
Speaker 5: the trust the coaches had had in me. That was

713
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:49,240
Speaker 5: the trust I was able to earn through the coaches

714
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,400
Speaker 5: and the belief in me.

715
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying. I was you know what

716
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:53,400
Speaker 4: I'm saying.

717
00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:56,160
Speaker 5: It's difficult being in different situations where you kind of

718
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:58,080
Speaker 5: like you get a feel for like the building and

719
00:30:58,120 --> 00:31:00,640
Speaker 5: you get a feel for around and you're there and

720
00:31:01,160 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 5: you know, and it's kind of like you can't change

721
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:04,800
Speaker 5: your situation. It just kind of is what it is.

722
00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:07,640
Speaker 5: But here I had actually opportunity the better of my

723
00:31:07,720 --> 00:31:10,200
Speaker 5: situation throughout the course of the season, and I think

724
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:12,240
Speaker 5: just the trust I was able to earn and gain

725
00:31:12,280 --> 00:31:14,760
Speaker 5: from the coaching staff around me, and and you know,

726
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 5: and uh, you know, it was easy to recruit people here,

727
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:20,280
Speaker 5: you know, I mean they called me. I mean, you know,

728
00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 5: they called me, and I just gave my honest opinion

729
00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,040
Speaker 5: of the honest review of the team, and I said, well,

730
00:31:25,080 --> 00:31:26,600
Speaker 5: this is what you're gonna get, this is how it's

731
00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 5: going to be, and I think you'll have this opportunity.

732
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 4: And that's just what it was needed. So I didn't

733
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:32,560
Speaker 4: need it to hear it was the truth.

734
00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:34,520
Speaker 5: I'm not gonna you know, I'm not gonna sit there

735
00:31:34,560 --> 00:31:37,320
Speaker 5: and like bull job somebody around you know, I say,

736
00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:38,719
Speaker 5: I'm gonna keep it one hundred with them.

737
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:41,560
Speaker 1: The you just mentioned. That's kind of weird. You do

738
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,040
Speaker 1: get to play all the teams that at one point

739
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:48,600
Speaker 1: had you, the Texans, the Dolphins, the Titans. That's kind

740
00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: of wild. Does that stuff. I always tell people, I'm like,

741
00:31:51,080 --> 00:31:52,360
Speaker 1: you have no idea what it looks like on a

742
00:31:52,360 --> 00:31:54,239
Speaker 1: football field and what these guys look like after. I mean,

743
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 1: it's a rock fight out there, so I would assume

744
00:31:55,920 --> 00:31:59,080
Speaker 1: you don't need any extra motivations. But there in there,

745
00:31:59,240 --> 00:31:59,600
Speaker 1: I mean.

746
00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 2: Maybe the road to Tennessee this year.

747
00:32:07,640 --> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 5: I mean, uh, you know, some teams you got to

748
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,040
Speaker 5: you got a little bit more fire for it than others.

749
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,720
Speaker 4: But like the I was, I don't might worry about

750
00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:15,120
Speaker 4: the doll.

751
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,560
Speaker 5: About but like so, I feel like some teams you

752
00:32:19,640 --> 00:32:21,600
Speaker 5: got a little bit more fire there for another. And

753
00:32:21,640 --> 00:32:23,800
Speaker 5: always feel good to go out there and be the

754
00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:27,440
Speaker 5: team that you know actually didn't want you anymore, or

755
00:32:27,480 --> 00:32:29,960
Speaker 5: like you just couldn't be a part of the situation anymore.

756
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:31,880
Speaker 5: So it does feel good to put a little BTA

757
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 5: to them.

758
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:33,920
Speaker 4: Maybe a lot of.

759
00:32:36,200 --> 00:32:38,560
Speaker 1: He sudjusted, he suggusted. From the start of the podcast,

760
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: figured it out.

761
00:32:40,560 --> 00:32:43,080
Speaker 3: I go back to week one and you know, I

762
00:32:43,120 --> 00:32:45,240
Speaker 3: remember doing interview with you about the whole Kelsey thing

763
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 3: that that set the tone for the year, right like that.

764
00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,440
Speaker 3: You guys started the year three, you know, in the

765
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:52,560
Speaker 3: AFC West, and you look at it like all the

766
00:32:52,560 --> 00:32:54,640
Speaker 3: tie breakers down the stretch has made so much hate

767
00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:58,239
Speaker 3: at the beginning of the year. The fact that if

768
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:00,200
Speaker 3: you guys get to the tournament, you will have earned it.

769
00:33:00,400 --> 00:33:03,560
Speaker 3: With the Eagles coming up, then the Chiefs again than

770
00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:05,520
Speaker 3: the Cowboys in Texas and the Broncos.

771
00:33:06,360 --> 00:33:08,680
Speaker 2: How much confidence is at the beginning of the season.

772
00:33:08,720 --> 00:33:10,760
Speaker 3: Give you guys to know that, Hey, you know we

773
00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,640
Speaker 3: started this thing strong, Let's end it strong.

774
00:33:12,760 --> 00:33:15,920
Speaker 5: Tone setters like like I said, like it's a going

775
00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,280
Speaker 5: out and beating the Chiefs like that over in Brazil, right,

776
00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:21,240
Speaker 5: beating the Chiefs like that over in Brazil. You know,

777
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:22,640
Speaker 5: it was a hell of a tone setter, you know

778
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 5: what I'm saying. So I mean it's even better to

779
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:27,720
Speaker 5: finish out stronger, because the better you played down the

780
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:30,040
Speaker 5: stretch of the better seating you get so you know

781
00:33:30,080 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 5: what I mean, Like I'm all for it, like I

782
00:33:31,880 --> 00:33:33,600
Speaker 5: love it. Well, I love it is.

783
00:33:35,400 --> 00:33:36,080
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.

784
00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,080
Speaker 5: I love what I do. So you know what I'm saying,

785
00:33:39,240 --> 00:33:41,120
Speaker 5: The longer I get to do it, the more happy

786
00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:41,720
Speaker 5: I'm going to be.

787
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,560
Speaker 1: So you mentioned West Philly. Did you grow up an

788
00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:46,560
Speaker 1: Eagles fan? Did you care about pro football?

789
00:33:46,880 --> 00:33:49,440
Speaker 5: I mean so I grew up more of a basketball fan,

790
00:33:49,520 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 5: but but yeah I did so, But I do watch

791
00:33:53,040 --> 00:33:54,800
Speaker 5: do remember when I was a kid watching you know,

792
00:33:54,920 --> 00:33:57,600
Speaker 5: make Na in the Super Bowl. You know what I'm saying.

793
00:33:57,640 --> 00:33:59,720
Speaker 5: I remember watching the Three Headed Monster. We had Vig

794
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:02,360
Speaker 5: you know, Shady and you know what I'm saying.

795
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, DJ, I'll start with this. What do you think

796
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:07,880
Speaker 1: of the as they call it, the toushbush, the sneak

797
00:34:07,960 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 1: And how you defend that? I mean, what the approach is.

798
00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:11,680
Speaker 5: I mean, I think it's a play and I think

799
00:34:11,719 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 5: it's like I kind of look at it, like, you know,

800
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,560
Speaker 5: though basketball had some unstoppable moves like James Harden and

801
00:34:16,600 --> 00:34:18,640
Speaker 5: what is up and under when he's drawing all those files.

802
00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:20,480
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying, it's a it's a it's

803
00:34:20,520 --> 00:34:22,960
Speaker 5: a move that's legal. It's a play that's illegal. And

804
00:34:23,000 --> 00:34:25,319
Speaker 5: you know what, until it's not legal or until they

805
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:27,000
Speaker 5: have to make adjustments on it, we got to figure

806
00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:27,839
Speaker 5: out how to stop it.

807
00:34:27,880 --> 00:34:30,200
Speaker 4: So it is what it is. I mean, it's part

808
00:34:30,239 --> 00:34:30,760
Speaker 4: of football.

809
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:32,520
Speaker 1: So I mean you're in the middle of it. So

810
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:33,880
Speaker 1: how do you how do you stop it?

811
00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:38,160
Speaker 4: I'm well, bad, It's a good way.

812
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:40,120
Speaker 2: To stop it, the only way to stop it, you

813
00:34:40,160 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 2: know what I'm saying.

814
00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,759
Speaker 3: So the fact that the Eagles were, i mean their

815
00:34:43,800 --> 00:34:46,879
Speaker 3: offensive line last year in Saquon, they were dominant. Now

816
00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:49,080
Speaker 3: they've they've been a little up and down. Nonetheless, they

817
00:34:49,080 --> 00:34:52,200
Speaker 3: are eight and four. Where do you start looking at

818
00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,160
Speaker 3: that offense? You get the weapons on the outside. But

819
00:34:55,600 --> 00:34:58,719
Speaker 3: you know, I really in December with any team, it's

820
00:34:58,719 --> 00:35:00,839
Speaker 3: like running the football. I have to pack a running

821
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:02,680
Speaker 3: game and you guys arena have to stop sake one Monday.

822
00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:05,680
Speaker 4: Like me personally, you know, I just find a way.

823
00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 4: You got to limit the run.

824
00:35:07,040 --> 00:35:09,920
Speaker 5: I think getting killed in the run games could be demoralizing,

825
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 5: you know, you know, you know, getting giving up three

826
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:14,160
Speaker 5: hundred yards on the ground or something like that.

827
00:35:14,200 --> 00:35:15,560
Speaker 4: It'd be a long, long game.

828
00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:19,600
Speaker 5: But I would focus on, like me, personally, I would

829
00:35:19,600 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 5: focus on stopping the run and then adjusting, throwing out

830
00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 5: different disguises, the mess with the QB. I s the

831
00:35:26,480 --> 00:35:28,719
Speaker 5: QB vision, you know what I'm saying, And you know, say,

832
00:35:28,840 --> 00:35:31,279
Speaker 5: just try to limit AJ and Smitty going on.

833
00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 1: So who is your Sixers guy? When you were a kid?

834
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,480
Speaker 1: Was it like Stackhouse or like who is the you

835
00:35:37,520 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 1: know what? Okay, yeah, I guess that would be that.

836
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:41,919
Speaker 4: N That was a little bit before.

837
00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:43,879
Speaker 5: I mean I was that was that was like so

838
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:48,760
Speaker 5: like Sixers actually trash. That's when they had like Michael

839
00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:50,520
Speaker 5: Carter Williams.

840
00:35:50,880 --> 00:35:56,080
Speaker 4: You trust. I was on two K hooping with him too, So.

841
00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,920
Speaker 1: That's right. Yeah, that was a rough goal. I forgot

842
00:35:59,880 --> 00:36:02,239
Speaker 1: to look for Michael card Williams. Was he a Rookie

843
00:36:02,239 --> 00:36:02,600
Speaker 1: of the Year?

844
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 2: Yeah?

00:38:12,080 --> 00:38:15,160

Speaker 1: the season. If you're watching the game, if you're not

899
00:38:18,360 --> 00:38:20,520
Speaker 1: listening to the game and watching the game, be sure

900
00:38:20,520 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 1: to just kind of keep an eye on them because

901
00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:25,719
Speaker 1: it's it's hilarious. When he gets held. It's just like

902
00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 1: like a yard sale is coming, you know, I love it.

903
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:32,839
Speaker 1: It absolutely cracks me up and kind of I think

904
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,720
Speaker 1: you heard it in how he was delivering his answers

905
00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,680
Speaker 1: and stuff. I remember. I think it was Bill Parcells

906
00:38:38,719 --> 00:38:40,759
Speaker 1: who said he was asked about, you know, some of

907
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,480
Speaker 1: the I think it was when he was with the Cowboys,

908
00:38:42,480 --> 00:38:44,240
Speaker 1: some of the guys on the line getting in trouble,

909
00:38:44,680 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 1: and I think his line was defensive line needs some salt,

910
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:51,759
Speaker 1: you know, the other the other position groups. Not necessarily

911
00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:53,480
Speaker 1: it's like, but D line, you need some guys to

912
00:38:53,520 --> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 1: have some salt in them. And I think that's one

913
00:38:55,600 --> 00:38:58,720
Speaker 1: of the things. And sometimes it results in a fifteen

914
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:01,600
Speaker 1: yard penalty, you know, but I do think that's important

915
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,040
Speaker 1: to have on a team. On a D line. He

916
00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:06,799
Speaker 1: kept saying it it's a violent game. Who's got the

917
00:39:06,840 --> 00:39:09,040
Speaker 1: most violence. I think that's something that you have to

918
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,160
Speaker 1: have in that room. And you know, for as quiet

919
00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:15,040
Speaker 1: and stoic as Khalil Mack is, Tierra is sort of that.

920
00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:17,440
Speaker 3: It's very I was gonna say, it's very nice combination

921
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 3: you guys, right, and you have a guy like Tully

922
00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,800
Speaker 3: who's whose motors always running. You have Khalil who's like

923
00:39:22,840 --> 00:39:24,759
Speaker 3: the stoic vet, and then you got get a little

924
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:26,360
Speaker 3: nastiness in the interior.

925
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:27,960
Speaker 1: And I think it goes a long way so excited

926
00:39:27,960 --> 00:39:29,719
Speaker 1: to see it on sign. It's going to be a

927
00:39:29,719 --> 00:39:31,399
Speaker 1: hell of a battle on the interior of that line

928
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:33,920
Speaker 1: if Dickerson's healthy. Dickerson versus Tart's gonna be a fun

929
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:35,359
Speaker 1: one to watch. Yeah, I can't wait for that.

930
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:37,960
Speaker 3: Charge has been awesome in prime time too, So keep

931
00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:42,080
Speaker 3: it rolling on money exactly right, final thing December football.

932
00:39:42,320 --> 00:39:44,640
Speaker 2: You know we've mentioned all the opponents, but.

933
00:39:46,440 --> 00:39:49,120
Speaker 3: I would go to back to last year Patriots Raiders

934
00:39:49,120 --> 00:39:51,959
Speaker 3: to close the year. They won eleven games. It wasn't

935
00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:54,920
Speaker 3: against the best quarterbacks. Like, if they get in this

936
00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,120
Speaker 3: your money, they will have earned it down the.

937
00:39:57,120 --> 00:39:59,160
Speaker 1: Stretch well, and with the injuries, you know, last year

938
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:02,000
Speaker 1: they were pretty healthy. You know, they were able to

939
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:06,279
Speaker 1: stay pretty darn healthy all season long. So that they're

940
00:40:06,320 --> 00:40:08,560
Speaker 1: sitting at this spot at eight and four with what

941
00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:11,839
Speaker 1: they've had to endure from an availability standpoint, I think

942
00:40:11,840 --> 00:40:15,600
Speaker 1: speaks to how good the coaching has been, how much

943
00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: this team believes in each other, the next man up mentality,

944
00:40:18,960 --> 00:40:21,439
Speaker 1: all the stuff that coach says ted there every day.

945
00:40:21,520 --> 00:40:24,320
Speaker 1: And you know, you got a guy that was essentially cut,

946
00:40:24,600 --> 00:40:26,960
Speaker 1: you know, Kimani was cut, was put on the practice

947
00:40:26,960 --> 00:40:30,080
Speaker 1: squad and you're talking about one of the more valuable

948
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 1: pieces on your offense that you don't have eight wins

949
00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,800
Speaker 1: without think about that Dolphins game and what he was

950
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:36,480
Speaker 1: able to do in that game and how tight that

951
00:40:36,520 --> 00:40:40,520
Speaker 1: thing was. So yeah, collective effort, man, it's not easy.

952
00:40:40,560 --> 00:40:43,120
Speaker 1: There's a reason why this this league is the most

953
00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,239
Speaker 1: popular form of entertainment in America because you just it's

954
00:40:46,320 --> 00:40:48,160
Speaker 1: you never know what's going to happen week to week,

955
00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:52,120
Speaker 1: month to month, season to season. And yeah, you said

956
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,520
Speaker 1: it starts against the defending Super Bowl champs. You know,

957
00:40:54,560 --> 00:40:58,560
Speaker 1: this final five game stretch against basically all playoff teams.

958
00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:01,080
Speaker 3: Yep, make a statement against the Eagles, and we're on

959
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 3: to Kansas City for TIERN Tart and Matt Muddy Smith.

960
00:41:05,120 --> 00:41:05,880
Speaker 2: I'm Chris Harry

00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:17,719
