Speaker 1: I'm Bear Crockey, presented by AT and P. And yes

17
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 1: we've been here the last five weeks after losses. So

18
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: today here here after a victory twenty four to ten

19
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: win on the road against the Saints, rivalry.

20
00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 3: Goes in favor of the made It Back. I know

21
00:01:06,800 --> 00:01:09,160
Speaker 3: they were hot after taking that all.

22
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 2: Stuck out.

23
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 4: So it used to be when you in New Orleans.

24
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:18,919
Speaker 4: They changed where the boxes and now you're like sitting

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 4: on the roof of the State but there was no

26
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:25,319
Speaker 4: elevator that took you to that level, so you actually

27
00:01:25,319 --> 00:01:27,720
Speaker 4: had to get off the elevator like the beginning of

28
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,959
Speaker 4: the three hundred level, if your merced has been stated,

29
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,920
Speaker 4: and actually go up the stairs through the crowd to

30
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 4: get to the press box. Now they've since put in

31
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,360
Speaker 4: a elevator. They found it was very counterproductive for the

32
00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:41,319
Speaker 4: other team's coaches to have to walk down through the crowd,

33
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:44,119
Speaker 4: so they put an elevator. They extended the elevator up.

34
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,160
Speaker 4: But yeah, there were a time. There was a time

35
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:49,400
Speaker 4: like when we nailed them with a with a field

36
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:52,040
Speaker 4: goal in overtime to win and we were able to

37
00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 4: walk down through the crowd you're talking about.

38
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:57,840
Speaker 2: That was good?

39
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 1: You see you see what on the shirt rights a

40
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:05,080
Speaker 1: little different body language after that, right exactly. So you know,

41
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 1: let's stay there arch. Let's talk about a little bit

42
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: of the atmosphere of the stadium. Not let's not get

43
00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,640
Speaker 1: to the locker room quite yet, but like atmosphere of

44
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: the stadium. How did you feel even had you had

45
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 1: a two and eight and a three and what's seven

46
00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 1: team at the time?

47
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 2: Is that right? Yeah?

48
00:02:19,280 --> 00:02:21,600
Speaker 1: Going at it, But sometimes the rivalries are just a

49
00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 1: little bit different.

50
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 4: Well, unfortunately for these two fan bases. As you guys know,

51
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:27,359
Speaker 4: these two teams have kind of been in this position

52
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,120
Speaker 4: for almost their existence. There's been blips on the radar. Obviously,

53
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,560
Speaker 4: Atlanta been to a couple of Super Bowls. New Orleans

54
00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,080
Speaker 4: has had a chance to break through and win a

55
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, but that took a long time to happen, right,

56
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:39,880
Speaker 4: And so there were a lot of years. In fact,

57
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 4: the years I was playing that the two teams were

58
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 4: kind of teetering on who was going to be in

59
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 4: the bottom and who wasn't, And so that in itself

60
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 4: generated an atmosphere between the two fan bases.

61
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,520
Speaker 2: Plus it's so close.

62
00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 4: The place was inundated with Falcon fans. I mean I

63
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 4: was out on Canal Street and you guys know it.

64
00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:01,200
Speaker 4: You know, you go Canal about two blocks down and

65
00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,919
Speaker 4: there's burbustry, so it's all tied in there to get

66
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 4: there were Falcon fans everywhere, and I'm talking about walk

67
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 4: It was almost like they were taunting the Saint fans,

68
00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:13,280
Speaker 4: walking up down saying rise up and singing all this

69
00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 4: stuff and walking around with all their stuff on. So

70
00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:18,320
Speaker 4: that was cool, and then that spilled over into the

71
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:21,200
Speaker 4: stadium and you always get the I think these two

72
00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 4: fan bases do a really good job of it being

73
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 4: one of the great robbery and I say great rivalries.

74
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,720
Speaker 4: It is Atlanta won this weekend, as you guys know

75
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 4: that actually even the series in the regular season at

76
00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,520
Speaker 4: fifty six and fifty six. Wow, it was already tied

77
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 4: if you included the one postseason game, because Atlanta beat

78
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 4: him in a postseason game.

79
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:46,160
Speaker 2: But that's what a rivalry is.

80
00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,920
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about.

81
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't want to hear about a rival Oh

82
00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,400
Speaker 4: you talk about these college football rivalries Oklahoma, Oklahoma State,

83
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 4: Welcaoma States, Olahoma State's went like for yeah, text record. Yeah.

84
00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,200
Speaker 4: I mean, so you got one that's got fourteen wins,

85
00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:03,200
Speaker 4: Yel's got one hundred.

86
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 3: I mean that's nottside.

87
00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, this one is truly that.

88
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,800
Speaker 4: And you know, you when you begin to look at it,

89
00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:12,440
Speaker 4: I know the South knows more about this one than

90
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 4: than other places of the country do. I mean, Bears

91
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:22,039
Speaker 4: Packers is a classic, you know, Eagles Giants classic, but

92
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 4: this one is a classic as well because there's been

93
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:28,200
Speaker 4: some unbelievable plays. Some of it hasn't been for other

94
00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 4: than hey, we're on top of you in the in

95
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 4: the division. But I thought that that atmosphere carried over again.

96
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 4: Now there's some pettiness in the in the crowd. They

97
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,640
Speaker 4: will always throw out the twenty eight three things.

98
00:04:39,160 --> 00:04:39,640
Speaker 3: They still did.

99
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the signs, Yeah, absolutely yeah.

100
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,440
Speaker 4: They had a picture of Matt Roman leaving the field.

101
00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,640
Speaker 4: This said the largest blown super Bowl. You know, as

102
00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 4: long as they have a super Bowl championship and we don't,

103
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 4: that's gonna be a little stick in the side.

104
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: They're going to continue to javis that.

105
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 4: But I think in all actuality, there is a there's

106
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:02,080
Speaker 4: a dislike this city was a bastion, a haven for

107
00:05:02,240 --> 00:05:05,800
Speaker 4: a number of people from New Orleans after Katrina that

108
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,320
Speaker 4: came here and were welcomed into Atlanta.

109
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:08,599
Speaker 2: Effect.

110
00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: My next door, my neighbor across the street, unbelievably good dude, Cajun.

111
00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 2: Guy, loves great cook all.

112
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 4: But we get back and forth each other each each

113
00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,080
Speaker 4: each time we play one another. But I don't know

114
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 4: that I could defend the end about another guy that's

115
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 4: in my area like I could he. So I think

116
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:30,400
Speaker 4: there's a there's a nastiness to it that's I think

117
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 4: on the level, but I think there's a there's a

118
00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,920
Speaker 4: respect level as well, so it's it was kind of cool,

119
00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:36,839
Speaker 4: but that that was kind of what permeated the building,

120
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 4: and you could see the air go out of there

121
00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:42,520
Speaker 4: balloon pretty quickly. Yeah, when Atlanta began to dominate.

122
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,560
Speaker 1: All right, we're gonna I'm gonna pivot here because I

123
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 1: want you to talk Arch about the feeling in the

124
00:05:47,640 --> 00:05:49,359
Speaker 1: locker room after the game. But I don't want this

125
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:52,120
Speaker 1: to go thirty minutes before Shot gets to say something here,

126
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,160
Speaker 1: because real quick, his feelings are hurt.

127
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,720
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm cool.

128
00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 3: I love hearing about it. I mean I asked Arch

129
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 3: about it. I literally just asked him how New orldans was.

130
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 1: Let's do this, Let's talk about the game, and then

131
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,840
Speaker 1: once we finish up the game, then Arch can tell

132
00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:07,800
Speaker 1: us the mood in the locker room.

133
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:09,880
Speaker 3: No, no, no, let's do locker room. Let's go I mean,

134
00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,440
Speaker 3: we can't go backwards. What happened in the locker room here.

135
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 3: It's a great locker room. No no, no, no, no.

136
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: You you do a great job at you want to

137
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 3: switch chairs? No, okay, this.

138
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,200
Speaker 4: Is the only reason we're like this is because Shock

139
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 4: and I were on time.

140
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 2: And racks.

141
00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,920
Speaker 4: So even though it's recording, you guys are picking this

142
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:33,200
Speaker 4: up on a Wednesday or whatever it is on Tuesday,

143
00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:33,960
Speaker 4: and we had to.

144
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:39,280
Speaker 1: Wait for our for the gate play six years here,

145
00:06:39,400 --> 00:06:42,039
Speaker 1: only been broadcasting for like five and I still can't

146
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,279
Speaker 1: even get in the gate outside.

147
00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, who are you?

148
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: I have this parking pat.

149
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 2: Side.

150
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 4: The player find schedule is still as it was, and

151
00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,000
Speaker 4: that's one hundred dollars a minute. That's seven hundred.

152
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,360
Speaker 2: So anyway, real quickly.

153
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:56,719
Speaker 1: Locker room.

154
00:06:57,160 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 4: The locker not jubulant, no noose. The guys were happy

155
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 4: to win. I mean, five game losing streak, you kind

156
00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 4: of scratch and you finally get a win.

157
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:06,479
Speaker 2: I thought it was cool.

158
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 4: The thing that I thought was probably the most overriding

159
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:13,320
Speaker 4: thing in the locker room was the understanding that you

160
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:16,480
Speaker 4: didn't have Drake London, you didn't have Michael pennockx junior

161
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:18,320
Speaker 4: guys that are mainstays that have been part of this

162
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:21,800
Speaker 4: team this season. You had other guys step in and

163
00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:24,920
Speaker 4: play extremely well. Whether it was David Sills Mooney makes

164
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 4: a play, you know, you got Kirk Cousins what he

165
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 4: did and how they how they played defensively, in as

166
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 4: a as a unit.

167
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 2: So I think that there.

168
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 4: Was just a pride factor that they had put it together,

169
00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 4: something that had been right on the right, on the

170
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:38,800
Speaker 4: verge of doing for.

171
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:39,520
Speaker 2: Four weeks in a row.

172
00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Art, you kind of mentioned something that that

173
00:07:42,560 --> 00:07:44,960
Speaker 1: triggered what I had talked about during the pregame show,

174
00:07:45,040 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 1: actually the two pregame shows this week, but one of

175
00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 1: the things that I threw out as Okay, you mentioned

176
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:53,800
Speaker 1: Falcons five game losing streak. Now, no Michael Pennix, no

177
00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 1: Drake London, no Zach Harrison, no Billy Bowman, and all

178
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,160
Speaker 1: I could think about was last year when Atlanta went

179
00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 1: down to New Orleans, no Chris o Lave, no Rashid Shaheed,

180
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,560
Speaker 1: Dennis Allen had just been fired, like all the reasons

181
00:08:06,600 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 1: why Atlanta should have stomped them, right, and the New

182
00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:12,880
Speaker 1: Orleans Saints won, right, So you could flip it almost

183
00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 1: shocked that this was a somewhat similar situation. Obviously no

184
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:19,720
Speaker 1: head coach being fired, but a lot of key contributors

185
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: that were not able to play. But they almost played

186
00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:24,520
Speaker 1: one of their better games that they played this entire season.

187
00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 1: Did you kind of had that same sense as you

188
00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: were watching this.

189
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 3: Yeah you were. And I think at the end of

190
00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:32,800
Speaker 3: the day, when you're a professional and you got dudes

191
00:08:32,840 --> 00:08:35,400
Speaker 3: are out and not playing, the other team, don't care.

192
00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,200
Speaker 3: It don't matter. The game will still go on. And

193
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:40,560
Speaker 3: guess what, they gonna still try to whoop you. They're

194
00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:42,280
Speaker 3: not gonna feel sorry that you don't have your best

195
00:08:42,280 --> 00:08:45,200
Speaker 3: guy and your quarterback just towards a cl okay about that.

196
00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:48,240
Speaker 3: They still want to whoop you. And I think you

197
00:08:48,320 --> 00:08:51,719
Speaker 3: go into this game saying, we can't use that as

198
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,920
Speaker 3: an excuse. We've already had a number of things not

199
00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 3: go away this season. We're all out of excuses, and

200
00:08:58,200 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 3: now we got to go win. They gotta go play

201
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:04,440
Speaker 3: the ballgames. So I thought, yeah, everything says on paper,

202
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,600
Speaker 3: maybe this team should have been a little down, should

203
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 3: have been a little bit sorry for herself. But when

204
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:12,880
Speaker 3: you got a bunch of guys who are true professionals,

205
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 3: they're gonna keep grinding the finding a way. And as

206
00:09:15,679 --> 00:09:18,240
Speaker 3: we all know, each week, you work your tail off

207
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,320
Speaker 3: to go win a ballgame, and it happens that Monday

208
00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:23,719
Speaker 3: you come back in after a ball game and you're

209
00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 3: trying to figure out what went wrong. And this team

210
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:27,880
Speaker 3: has done that for the last five weeks, and not

211
00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 3: to say, you know, hey, those last five weeks they

212
00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 3: didn't work hard. They did work hard, things just didn't

213
00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:33,760
Speaker 3: go your way. You come back this time, you get

214
00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,520
Speaker 3: an opportunity to go on the road to be the

215
00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:39,400
Speaker 3: division rival, and you do that in really great fashion,

216
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,520
Speaker 3: and I was excited to see that.

217
00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:43,040
Speaker 2: Fellas.

218
00:09:43,240 --> 00:09:46,079
Speaker 1: Generally, how we end up recapping these games, and I

219
00:09:46,080 --> 00:09:47,959
Speaker 1: don't know if it's just the nature of the beast.

220
00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's just human nature, but we

221
00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: always end up starting with the offense. We talk about

222
00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:55,280
Speaker 1: how the quarterback played, and then how Jean Robinson played.

223
00:09:55,320 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 1: But again, I'm throwing a ranch in the game here, guys,

224
00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 1: because I want to talk about how the defense played,

225
00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:02,400
Speaker 1: because there was three stops in this game that I

226
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,400
Speaker 1: thought were truly impressive. Okay, they end up giving up

227
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,560
Speaker 1: another big return on kickoff return.

228
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 2: They start with.

229
00:10:09,440 --> 00:10:12,520
Speaker 1: Great field position, boom, lockdown, force them to a field

230
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: goal attempt that's missed. Then there's two other drives that

231
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 1: get deep down in the red zone and his defense

232
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,160
Speaker 1: bows up arch. How about the response from the last

233
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,240
Speaker 1: couple of weeks where this defense has been humbled a

234
00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: little bit statistically, they were towards the top of the

235
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 1: league early on in the season. Then there was a

236
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 1: few bad games. You talk about what happened in Berlin

237
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,080
Speaker 1: and obviously last week against Carolina, this defense seemed like

238
00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,920
Speaker 1: it played with a different attitude, especially on those three

239
00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: drives getting those stops.

240
00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:39,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, red zone.

241
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:41,920
Speaker 4: Stops were phenomenal over three for the Saints in the

242
00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 4: red zone. And there was some things that happened, and

243
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:46,160
Speaker 4: we can chop that up if you guys want to.

244
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:48,959
Speaker 4: I thought that my key to the game, and it

245
00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,000
Speaker 4: might have been years two rat going into the game

246
00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,840
Speaker 4: was it landed given up twenty nine plays in their

247
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:57,560
Speaker 4: last three games of fifteen yards or more. They had

248
00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,520
Speaker 4: played relatively good defensive football. I mean, look at the

249
00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,800
Speaker 4: sacks and the takeaways that they had done over the

250
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 4: last three weeks, and that continued in this game. That

251
00:11:05,800 --> 00:11:08,320
Speaker 4: you're like, you're talking about two more takeaways, five more sacks.

252
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:13,240
Speaker 4: But what they did do is they eliminated the explosives.

253
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:15,800
Speaker 4: Only four explosive plays.

254
00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:16,079
Speaker 2: In this game.

255
00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 4: Carolina was coming off a bye week, I'm sorry, Normans

256
00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:22,480
Speaker 4: was coming off a bye week, and their best game

257
00:11:22,679 --> 00:11:26,640
Speaker 4: explosive wise, was in Carolina two weeks ago where they

258
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:29,400
Speaker 4: had seven plays of fifteen yards or more. So they

259
00:11:29,400 --> 00:11:31,960
Speaker 4: were coming in feeling pretty good about potentially with the

260
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:34,640
Speaker 4: young quarterback and Shuck and maybe they'd found a little

261
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,360
Speaker 4: bit of rhythm. Atlanta took all of that away. The

262
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 4: defense took all of that away, and in fact took

263
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 4: the run game away, and then put Shuck in a

264
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,040
Speaker 4: pressure cooker, if you will, and began to kind of

265
00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 4: melt the everything around him and get after him. But

266
00:11:50,280 --> 00:11:52,120
Speaker 4: in the red zone in particular, I thought there was

267
00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,520
Speaker 4: one play that I want to point to in the

268
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 4: red zone, and it might have been it was in

269
00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 4: the second half, I believe. But they get down there

270
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:04,400
Speaker 4: and Shock runs a quarterback suitep to the left side

271
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:06,920
Speaker 4: and gets to the one yard it was on first down,

272
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 4: gets to the one yard line. To me, the arey

273
00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 4: I'll talk about the missnap and the grounding, which was

274
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:17,480
Speaker 4: a huge play. The play prior to that, it's second

275
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,559
Speaker 4: in goal from the one foot line and they stone

276
00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:26,440
Speaker 4: them on that play, which forces Kellen Moore to go, Okay,

277
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,160
Speaker 4: well we'll get the gadget guy in and we'll run

278
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:32,959
Speaker 4: the shotgun quarterback, you know, lead play, and then the

279
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,280
Speaker 4: guy snaps it over his head. But that's the key.

280
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 4: Make him play. How many plays can you make him play?

281
00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:40,520
Speaker 4: Can you make him force them into a mistake? And

282
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 4: they had almost snapped it over his head earlier in

283
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,800
Speaker 4: the game. But the play to me was the second

284
00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,600
Speaker 4: in one play. The score is I believe it's sixteen

285
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,040
Speaker 4: to seven at the time, so we're late in the

286
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 4: football game. Sixteen to seven a time. If they score now,

287
00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,520
Speaker 4: it's a two point game, right, and you keep them.

288
00:12:58,400 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 2: Out of the end zone.

289
00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 4: But I thought that second in a foot to score

290
00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:04,720
Speaker 4: was a really telling play to kind of overrode and

291
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 4: kind of gave you a story of what this defense was.

292
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:07,840
Speaker 2: The whole night.

293
00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: You talked about the pass rush in this game, five sacks,

294
00:13:11,320 --> 00:13:14,480
Speaker 1: six tackles for loss, just ten points allowed, and shock,

295
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:18,360
Speaker 1: I want to turn to you because we talked once

296
00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: Divine Dioblo got hurt. We talked about how I guess

297
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,920
Speaker 1: different the defense was gonna look because of what he

298
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,880
Speaker 1: brings to the table, right, And then I don't know

299
00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:31,079
Speaker 1: about you, guys, but like all of a sudden, you see, well,

300
00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: he's gonna be back at practice, and then he practices

301
00:13:34,080 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: all week and then he gets activated and he has

302
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 1: no injury designation. And then I had seen earlier that

303
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 1: he had, you know, a big rap on his arm

304
00:13:42,160 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 1: and stuff. So he ends up missing a few games.

305
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:49,480
Speaker 1: And we showed a full screen stat of comparison from

306
00:13:49,520 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 1: the first seven weeks to when he was out, and

307
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:56,319
Speaker 1: the defensive numbers were dramatically worse when he came out

308
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 1: of the game. Now, you could contribute a lot of

309
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: factors to that. You can contribute a little bit of

310
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:04,080
Speaker 1: the fact that he wasn't there. But watching the game, shock,

311
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,400
Speaker 1: what did you feel like Diablo's presence back to the

312
00:14:07,480 --> 00:14:08,960
Speaker 1: defense meant to them?

313
00:14:09,040 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 3: It's one word of physicality, and you look at the

314
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,319
Speaker 3: way he plays, the way he fills gaps, the way

315
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:16,079
Speaker 3: he can You know, there are times where we always

316
00:14:16,080 --> 00:14:17,559
Speaker 3: talking about old lineman got to get up to the

317
00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,400
Speaker 3: second level. They got better to get to that linebacker.

318
00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 3: There are a lot of times those linemen cannot get

319
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,040
Speaker 3: to him because he can diagnose things so fast, and

320
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:26,880
Speaker 3: then he has the speed to go through it. You

321
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 3: talk about a guy who plays safety, now he plays linebacker.

322
00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:31,560
Speaker 3: So he has the speed, has the eyes as a

323
00:14:31,640 --> 00:14:33,920
Speaker 3: vision to go see things, and then when he's there,

324
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 3: the dude ain't going nowhere. The dude is shout out

325
00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,200
Speaker 3: of a cannon. And I mean the dude almost had

326
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,240
Speaker 3: an interception with the big but the big club on

327
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:44,880
Speaker 3: his hand, the old Pat Willers club in his hand.

328
00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:48,320
Speaker 3: But he is definitely a different style of player for

329
00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,640
Speaker 3: this defense. And you know, Obra kN Raheim knew from

330
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 3: day one this was the style of linebacker they wanted.

331
00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 3: And he fits that molde and you add him with

332
00:14:58,360 --> 00:15:01,360
Speaker 3: ka Nelli's baby to move him around. But there are

333
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,880
Speaker 3: just times where he's just unblockable. There are times where

334
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,000
Speaker 3: he can see things and he will go and he

335
00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 3: will go make the play, and you know he'll cover

336
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:11,080
Speaker 3: some things up for you that maybe, oh if he's

337
00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,960
Speaker 3: not there, that's probably maybe an eight, nine ten yard

338
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 3: run and he turns it into maybe a one or

339
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 3: two yard game. But I just believe his physicality, his

340
00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,760
Speaker 3: presence on the field brings a lot to this defense.

341
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 3: And of course you gotta have the big boys up front.

342
00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,600
Speaker 3: You gotta give those guys a lot of credit, especially

343
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,760
Speaker 3: those first and second year guys who are aggressive. They

344
00:15:29,800 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 3: were disruptive, they you know, they make things a lot harder.

345
00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,840
Speaker 3: I mean, there was one particular play. Give Old Brick

346
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:40,840
Speaker 3: a lot of credit for the way he schemes things

347
00:15:40,920 --> 00:15:43,320
Speaker 3: up too. There are a lot of times where he

348
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 3: will put a guy like Kayen Nellis on on aline screen,

349
00:15:46,880 --> 00:15:50,440
Speaker 3: like James Pearce sack. You put kay Ellis on the line,

350
00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:53,720
Speaker 3: you think he's gonna blitch. You got Jayleen Walker sitting

351
00:15:53,800 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 3: right in the middle as that middle linebacker, and you

352
00:15:56,000 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 3: got a guy sitting right over the nose, and Jaylen

353
00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,040
Speaker 3: Walker's right behind him. On the snap of the football,

354
00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 3: the guy who is the nose, he gets taken away,

355
00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:08,000
Speaker 3: but then Jama Walker comes. But then here's him coming

356
00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 3: from the middle with the pressure. And then the guy

357
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:13,000
Speaker 3: to tackle thinks Kate Nillis is coming off the edge.

358
00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,840
Speaker 3: He fakes and by the time he looks up, oh,

359
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,160
Speaker 3: now James Spears has a one on one. He's split

360
00:16:18,240 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 3: the defenders. You got him come in the middle, You

361
00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,520
Speaker 3: got pierced other side the disguise that thought was pretty cool.

362
00:16:23,520 --> 00:16:25,280
Speaker 3: You had Diablow on the other side thinking he was

363
00:16:25,280 --> 00:16:28,920
Speaker 3: gonna blitz. Both those guys bail and you only end

364
00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:30,920
Speaker 3: up with a four man pressure, but it looks like

365
00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:33,200
Speaker 3: it's six guys coming. So give Old Brick a lot

366
00:16:33,240 --> 00:16:34,600
Speaker 3: of credit for a give those guys a lot of

367
00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:37,520
Speaker 3: credit to for making it look like some pre snap

368
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,680
Speaker 3: and giving the young rookie something else to see post

369
00:16:39,680 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 3: snap and baby get home. But back to your point,

370
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:45,880
Speaker 3: Dia Blow definitely is a guy that his presence alone

371
00:16:45,920 --> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 3: on the field, his athleticism, his physicality brings a different breed,

372
00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,200
Speaker 3: gotta be honest to that defense and is a big

373
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:53,160
Speaker 3: reason why they have a lot of success when he's

374
00:16:53,200 --> 00:16:53,600
Speaker 3: on the field.

375
00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean to me, he just he sets a

376
00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:58,800
Speaker 1: different tone and what he brings to the table with

377
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: his athleticism and the physicality, it is truly impressive.

378
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 4: It's funny. It's a great mention by both of you guys.

379
00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:11,040
Speaker 4: And we talked so often about a backup quarterback comes

380
00:17:11,080 --> 00:17:13,399
Speaker 4: in and they said, oh, well, maybe you can give

381
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:15,600
Speaker 4: him a spark, maybe he can spark.

382
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:16,480
Speaker 2: Something on the offense side.

383
00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:21,040
Speaker 4: I don't think there's any question that Diablo sparked the defense.

384
00:17:22,680 --> 00:17:24,800
Speaker 4: The guys up front have been rushing and I think

385
00:17:24,800 --> 00:17:28,639
Speaker 4: they're doing a better job of creating problems with just four.

386
00:17:28,840 --> 00:17:30,440
Speaker 2: As you were talking about shock.

387
00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:33,800
Speaker 4: All the bluffs, the speed, the athleticism around the line

388
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:36,120
Speaker 4: of scrimmage and then all of a suddenly four come

389
00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:38,399
Speaker 4: and now you're still getting to the quarterback, and now

390
00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:41,439
Speaker 4: you can get seven back in coverage. Diablo gives you

391
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,119
Speaker 4: that ability to do some things that maybe kayen Ellis

392
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,159
Speaker 4: was having to do to cover up. And then he

393
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,240
Speaker 4: had Ronnie Harrison having to do some JD. Birtraands having

394
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,080
Speaker 4: to do something. It's all encompassed in one guy, and

395
00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,880
Speaker 4: so I thought that there was a spark there. I've

396
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:57,679
Speaker 4: talked to him after the game. He had a grin.

397
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:02,480
Speaker 4: Basically talk to him after the game and I said,

398
00:18:02,520 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 4: I knew you were going to catch the ball with

399
00:18:03,800 --> 00:18:07,840
Speaker 4: that man from your club on, but but he he

400
00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,200
Speaker 4: really enjoyed being back.

401
00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:10,040
Speaker 2: On the field with his teammates.

402
00:18:10,119 --> 00:18:14,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously they I think everybody was happy to have

403
00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:17,080
Speaker 1: him back out there, and probably a sense of relief

404
00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,080
Speaker 1: seeing number zero out there.

405
00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:21,119
Speaker 2: I do want to talk go ahead real quickly.

406
00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,880
Speaker 4: Defensively, I don't know if you want to shift gears

407
00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,639
Speaker 4: to from a defense here, don't you know?

408
00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,480
Speaker 2: And you're the host of the show screen.

409
00:18:29,080 --> 00:18:31,719
Speaker 4: No, but I wanted I wanted to accentuate a player

410
00:18:31,800 --> 00:18:34,119
Speaker 4: that I think took a little bit of heat a

411
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:38,679
Speaker 4: year ago and has played everywhere for Atlanta on defense,

412
00:18:39,840 --> 00:18:43,520
Speaker 4: de Offered has had to play both corners. Both corners

413
00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 4: have been out at some point. Aj has been out,

414
00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:47,600
Speaker 4: Hughes has been out. He said, to play both corners

415
00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:50,240
Speaker 4: that discipline in itself, to be able to play the

416
00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 4: wide side corner of the boundary corner is difficult. But

417
00:18:53,560 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 4: he also plays what you could argue is the most

418
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,879
Speaker 4: difficult position to play in football now, and that's the

419
00:19:00,040 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 4: nickel spot. The two way go, the ability to fit

420
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 4: against the run, to understand blitz concepts, to read offensive

421
00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 4: lineman and what they're doing reading tight ends, release. There's

422
00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:14,359
Speaker 4: so much that he had ten tackles in the game,

423
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:18,040
Speaker 4: he had our fumble recovery, and remember Billy Bowman up

424
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,119
Speaker 4: to Friday was going to start at the nickel spot.

425
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 4: So you talk about a guy that was ready to

426
00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 4: play when they called him.

427
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:28,320
Speaker 2: De offer deserves a ton of credit for how he played.

428
00:19:29,600 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: Early on the game. He just seemed like he was

429
00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,000
Speaker 1: making every play and you mentioned the ten tackles that

430
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:37,919
Speaker 1: led the team. So between that between Diablo and then

431
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:41,000
Speaker 1: let's give like one thing that we were talking about

432
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:43,600
Speaker 1: on the offensive side of the ball throughout the course

433
00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,919
Speaker 1: of the season really has been inconsistencies. And then we

434
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,560
Speaker 1: talk about the defense and what was the biggest thing

435
00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,000
Speaker 1: that needed to get better this year was pass rush, Right,

436
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:54,760
Speaker 1: that's the part that last year, the last few years

437
00:19:55,040 --> 00:19:58,040
Speaker 1: has been inconsistent. Well, now you could almost say that

438
00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,840
Speaker 1: the pass rush and has been consistent.

439
00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:01,520
Speaker 3: Right.

440
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: So, Arch, we saw Jaylen Walker again, we saw James

441
00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,439
Speaker 1: Pierce again, we saw Brandon Dorless again. These guys just

442
00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 1: continue to get there. You mentioned some of the younger

443
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 1: pass rushers. To me, Arch, what's impressive is it's not

444
00:20:14,240 --> 00:20:16,399
Speaker 1: just they get one or one and a half in

445
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:18,639
Speaker 1: a game and then they kind of go disappear for

446
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,159
Speaker 1: about four or five weeks. This has been each and

447
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,560
Speaker 1: every week. Now they're showing up in the backfield.

448
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 2: Yeah.

449
00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:25,600
Speaker 4: I was looking back on my card, I looking back

450
00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,640
Speaker 4: to the Patriot game, or I think it was where

451
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,280
Speaker 4: we were, and I said, okay, we got sixteen sacks,

452
00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,719
Speaker 4: and all of a sudden, I look up and now

453
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:35,119
Speaker 4: we got thirty nine sacks. There's something got hole. They've turned,

454
00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 4: They've stepped on the accelerator. Thirty nine sacks. Thirteen players

455
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,080
Speaker 4: have at least one sack, and nine players have at

456
00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:47,240
Speaker 4: least two sacks. That means you have absolutely no idea

457
00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,240
Speaker 4: who's coming and where they're going to get you from.

458
00:20:50,440 --> 00:20:52,000
Speaker 4: You're closing on some rarefied air.

459
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:52,359
Speaker 2: Guys.

460
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:55,240
Speaker 4: You got to go back to the Patrick Kearney Rod

461
00:20:55,359 --> 00:20:59,200
Speaker 4: Coleman era back in the mid in the mid, Yeah,

462
00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:02,560
Speaker 4: back in back when, back when Rack was playing, they

463
00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:05,240
Speaker 4: had forty nine sacks that season. I believe it was

464
00:21:05,240 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 4: the old four season when you guys went the NFC

465
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:10,400
Speaker 4: Championship game forty nine sacks. This team's got thirty nine

466
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,880
Speaker 4: sacks with six games to go.

467
00:21:11,960 --> 00:21:14,879
Speaker 2: Correct last year, what do you go back to?

468
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,680
Speaker 4: Twenty three was the last time they had this mini

469
00:21:17,720 --> 00:21:21,000
Speaker 4: They had forty two. In twenty twenty three had forty

470
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:25,199
Speaker 4: two sacks, could potentially go by that. This week, the

471
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:29,040
Speaker 4: only other team the two team had forty seven sacks.

472
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,640
Speaker 4: So you're talking about these guys are pushing the envelope

473
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,960
Speaker 4: to go someplace. This team has never been in shock.

474
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:37,479
Speaker 1: I made the comment in the pregame show when we

475
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,680
Speaker 1: were talking a little bit about Zach Harrison and him

476
00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:44,840
Speaker 1: not being available obviously getting hurt, and I said that

477
00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:47,280
Speaker 1: I didn't think it was going to be as big

478
00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:49,960
Speaker 1: of an issue not to take anything away from Zach,

479
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:53,280
Speaker 1: but to your point that so many different people have

480
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:56,280
Speaker 1: been shipping in and bringing production when it comes to

481
00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,480
Speaker 1: pass rus. It's not like this team had one guy

482
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,200
Speaker 1: that had eleven and a half sacks and everybody else

483
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:03,359
Speaker 1: had ones and twos. Right to your point, everybody has

484
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 1: been getting into action. So when you lose somebody like

485
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 1: Zach Harrison, yes you hate to lose it. For a point,

486
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,240
Speaker 1: he was a leading socker on this team. But you've

487
00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: got so many different players now that continue to get better.

488
00:22:14,200 --> 00:22:16,679
Speaker 1: And I think these rookies, the young players continue to

489
00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,200
Speaker 1: get better every single week.

490
00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a special thing. I mean you look over

491
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:22,560
Speaker 3: and like Cleveland, you got mouth, Garrett got eighteen sacks.

492
00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:24,399
Speaker 3: You come to the game, you know we got to

493
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,680
Speaker 3: make sure we know what that one guy is. Jayalen

494
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,240
Speaker 3: Walker said it out of the game. He said, I

495
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:31,040
Speaker 3: love playing in his defense because I know I'm gonna

496
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 3: get one on one because we got so many guys

497
00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:35,320
Speaker 3: who can win. So you come to lunch of scrimmage

498
00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,439
Speaker 3: and you got all these different guys at line were

499
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,119
Speaker 3: talking about all these bluff and they gotta respect it

500
00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,600
Speaker 3: because this guy had two sacks last week, this guy

501
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:46,120
Speaker 3: had a sacking hat. There's always gonna be somebody who

502
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 3: feels like, oh, they gave me to one on one

503
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,080
Speaker 3: this time, I gotta go.

504
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:49,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

505
00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 3: Rouke was talking to Arts week or two ago, and

506
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:54,920
Speaker 3: he was talking about how somebody else got to say

507
00:22:55,000 --> 00:22:56,760
Speaker 3: He's like, oh, I gotta step on it now, I

508
00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,520
Speaker 3: gotta go get me one. Like that's the mindset. You

509
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:01,879
Speaker 3: know that these guys gotten that, like, oh, our brothers

510
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,240
Speaker 3: got one. Let me join the party. And you can

511
00:23:04,320 --> 00:23:06,280
Speaker 3: it's showing up in the stat sheet, it's showing up

512
00:23:06,320 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 3: on tape, it's showing up when these guys line up,

513
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 3: and you know, you got a lot of different things

514
00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,359
Speaker 3: going on, and these guys are getting home. And we

515
00:23:13,440 --> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 3: talked about at the beginning of the year, we said

516
00:23:15,160 --> 00:23:18,199
Speaker 3: we didn't want one guy to have twelve thirteen sacks.

517
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:21,320
Speaker 3: We wanted a collective group. And that's what we got

518
00:23:21,400 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 3: right now. And you never know who is gonna be

519
00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:25,920
Speaker 3: from week to week. And I think the most impressive

520
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:28,040
Speaker 3: thing is what we just talked about, is they're doing

521
00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,080
Speaker 3: it with four guys. A lot of the time, it

522
00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:31,359
Speaker 3: may look like it's a lot of guys in a

523
00:23:31,359 --> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 3: line of scrimmage. But when the ball snapped, those guys

524
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 3: are winning those one on ones. They're finding a way

525
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:38,480
Speaker 3: to get home and they're getting the quarterback on the ground,

526
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:42,240
Speaker 3: and that's forcing teams to to kind of play to

527
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,080
Speaker 3: kind of play one side. I mean, you give up

528
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 3: three points in this ball game on the defense side

529
00:23:45,880 --> 00:23:48,080
Speaker 3: of the ball. Yeah, you stop to run. I mean,

530
00:23:48,160 --> 00:23:50,520
Speaker 3: it's it's fun to watch this group get after him,

531
00:23:50,520 --> 00:23:54,200
Speaker 3: and obviously they're just starting to hit their stride.

532
00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:57,399
Speaker 2: Seems like, let's go ahead and switch gears.

533
00:23:57,400 --> 00:23:59,600
Speaker 1: Talk a little bit about the offense and Kirk Cousins

534
00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:02,119
Speaker 1: obviously now elevated back to the starting role after the

535
00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: injury to Michael PENNOCKX junior heads to IR and this

536
00:24:05,640 --> 00:24:07,360
Speaker 1: was a game where you could say that I think

537
00:24:07,400 --> 00:24:09,920
Speaker 1: he did a really good job being a game manager.

538
00:24:09,960 --> 00:24:11,360
Speaker 1: And I don't you know a lot of people think

539
00:24:11,400 --> 00:24:13,720
Speaker 1: that that game manager tag is like an insult, but

540
00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 1: I think a quarterback needs to be a game manager

541
00:24:16,160 --> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: and a game changer at the same time. But I

542
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,200
Speaker 1: felt like Kirk did a lot of things that were

543
00:24:22,200 --> 00:24:24,080
Speaker 1: really good. Numbers aren't going to blow you away. Sixteen

544
00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:26,480
Speaker 1: to twenty three hundred ninety nine yards two touchdowns, did

545
00:24:26,480 --> 00:24:29,280
Speaker 1: have an interception. It also showed a little bit of

546
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:37,280
Speaker 1: physicality for anybody anticipated that. But arts breakdown which you

547
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,320
Speaker 1: saw from Kirk Cousins back into that starting role.

548
00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, I thought that racket's a good point. You know,

549
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:46,720
Speaker 4: the game manager thing for quarterbacks as always, Oh he's

550
00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,960
Speaker 4: a game manager, some kind of slight. Every quarterback that's

551
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:54,679
Speaker 4: successful passes to manage the game. And you said that,

552
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:56,840
Speaker 4: and that's a great way of putting it. I got

553
00:24:56,920 --> 00:25:00,360
Speaker 4: Cousin's decision making in distributing the ball, and I'm talking

554
00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:03,959
Speaker 4: about checking the ball down some there were some shots

555
00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,320
Speaker 4: down the field he turned down. Didn't want to put

556
00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 4: the ball in harm's way. He knew the worst thing

557
00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:11,959
Speaker 4: he could do was turn the football over. So let

558
00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:13,840
Speaker 4: the defense play the way they were playing. Let's make

559
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:15,880
Speaker 4: sure we take care of the football. But he got

560
00:25:15,880 --> 00:25:18,840
Speaker 4: the ball out quickly. You know, you get Charlie Warner.

561
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,120
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know is Charlie Warner had ever

562
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:24,199
Speaker 4: had three or four grabs in a game. I mean,

563
00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 4: but yeah, we were bagging Rayburn County Man. He was

564
00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:30,920
Speaker 4: catching the football, running with it, playing running back. No,

565
00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:34,200
Speaker 4: he but he understood to get the ball out, let

566
00:25:34,200 --> 00:25:36,800
Speaker 4: me take care of my offensive line. Nothing makes an

567
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:39,000
Speaker 4: O line shot, you know, makes an O line feel

568
00:25:39,040 --> 00:25:41,480
Speaker 4: better than to look back and see the quarterbacks still

569
00:25:41,520 --> 00:25:43,240
Speaker 4: standing in the ball. Somebody's running with the ball down

570
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 4: the field.

571
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:44,080
Speaker 2: Yeah.

572
00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 4: The worst thing they can do is see you run

573
00:25:45,760 --> 00:25:47,480
Speaker 4: in and trying to throw the ball away or laying

574
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 4: on your back back there. So I thought Kirk did

575
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 4: a really good job of that. Now he had a

576
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,400
Speaker 4: couple of sacks, he ate the football, and there's gonna

577
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 4: be times you and I learned that, Hey, the best

578
00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,280
Speaker 4: thing to do is to take care of the football

579
00:25:58,280 --> 00:25:59,960
Speaker 4: and eat it. At that point, if you can throw

580
00:26:00,080 --> 00:26:02,840
Speaker 4: it away, throw it away. But I thought that he

581
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,880
Speaker 4: just did that. I thought his decision making was really good.

582
00:26:06,160 --> 00:26:08,439
Speaker 4: I thought he looked really good. And Shock does a

583
00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 4: great job of breaking down the Sills touchdown. So you

584
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:13,639
Speaker 4: got to go check that out on atlantafalcons dot com.

585
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:17,200
Speaker 4: He walks you through every little piece of what happens,

586
00:26:17,200 --> 00:26:20,400
Speaker 4: including what Kirk does with his eyes to help influence

587
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 4: the play, which is more what you're talking about, and

588
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:26,199
Speaker 4: what Kirk brought to the table the veteran leadership. I

589
00:26:26,240 --> 00:26:30,959
Speaker 4: thought that the enthusiasm that he showed the touchdown was Sills.

590
00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 4: He's pumping his fist the touchdown to Mooney, you know,

591
00:26:34,040 --> 00:26:35,879
Speaker 4: he jumps up in the air and they're lifting him up.

592
00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:38,720
Speaker 4: I thought that that was something that maybe we've been

593
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:42,160
Speaker 4: lacking a little bit of that enthusiasm on the offense side.

594
00:26:42,200 --> 00:26:43,080
Speaker 4: I thought he brought all of.

595
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,080
Speaker 1: That and shock in the running game with one of

596
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:48,240
Speaker 1: the other things that I was thinking about. Right have

597
00:26:48,359 --> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: no obviously influence on play calling, but this was to me,

598
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,399
Speaker 1: this felt like a good game when you don't have

599
00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:56,919
Speaker 1: Drake London, when you don't have Michael Pennix, to get

600
00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:00,239
Speaker 1: Algier and Robinson a lot of action and maybe on

601
00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:03,040
Speaker 1: the field together at the same time, just because Robinson

602
00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,560
Speaker 1: may have had to be a little bit more of

603
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,119
Speaker 1: a wide receiver this week, but I thought it was

604
00:27:07,119 --> 00:27:10,000
Speaker 1: a workman's like performance. Twenty nine carries, one hundred and

605
00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 1: twenty one yards total, Robinson over one hundred yards total

606
00:27:13,080 --> 00:27:16,239
Speaker 1: again in this game, and they had that element that

607
00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:18,360
Speaker 1: was back. They were able to run the football. Felipe

608
00:27:18,359 --> 00:27:20,600
Speaker 1: Franks comes in in a short yardage situation and gets

609
00:27:20,640 --> 00:27:22,960
Speaker 1: back to his quarterback days, pounds his way for a

610
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: first down. The run game, I felt like had to

611
00:27:26,119 --> 00:27:29,120
Speaker 1: be there in order to let Kirk get back under

612
00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 1: center have a little play action. And now they got

613
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,560
Speaker 1: to respect it because both of those guys were on

614
00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:34,360
Speaker 1: the field quite a bit.

615
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 3: And that's a big thing. That's a great point is

616
00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: how many times the Fox were able to use the

617
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,720
Speaker 3: play action to their benefit because you have guys back

618
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,400
Speaker 3: there who can run the rock like those two guys,

619
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,720
Speaker 3: and I thought they affected the game in the run

620
00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:50,960
Speaker 3: game in a way that helped him have some big

621
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 3: plays down the field. I mean the play the cow

622
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,480
Speaker 3: pits where you're faking the outside zone and they have

623
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,600
Speaker 3: to respect it. You can literally see it. Take the

624
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,200
Speaker 3: safety is fifteen yards deep and he is flying up

625
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 3: trying to get there for that outside zone. And the

626
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:06,880
Speaker 3: guys played it really well. And then Kyle leaks out,

627
00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,639
Speaker 3: goes down the sideline and Kirk comes off and finds

628
00:28:09,640 --> 00:28:12,080
Speaker 3: that safety safety flying up. He dumps it to him

629
00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,639
Speaker 3: perfectly throwing football from Kirk. I love the way you

630
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 3: use Bijon and then you bring in the bowling ball

631
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,560
Speaker 3: of razor blades for a whole drive and he just

632
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 3: pounds them and pounds them and gives you a different

633
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,480
Speaker 3: feel and you see him get up smiling. That's got

634
00:28:29,480 --> 00:28:31,000
Speaker 3: to be the morelizing for a defense because he just

635
00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:33,639
Speaker 3: hit you for eight or nine and pounded you and

636
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:37,000
Speaker 3: then boom, here he comes Bjon again. How about the

637
00:28:37,040 --> 00:28:40,040
Speaker 3: great call on the screen player's second in Freaking twenty

638
00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:44,560
Speaker 3: five and you dump a one yard route to Bjon

639
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 3: and he takes it, you know, thirty forty yards down

640
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,000
Speaker 3: the field. I mean, just the way they use those

641
00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:51,880
Speaker 3: guys I thought was good. I mean the touchdown, the seals,

642
00:28:51,920 --> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 3: you got both guys in the ball game, Bijeon goes

643
00:28:54,080 --> 00:28:57,640
Speaker 3: out in motion, you got Tile in the backfield, the confusion.

644
00:28:57,640 --> 00:28:59,719
Speaker 3: I mean just I thought Zach did a really good

645
00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 3: job of utilizing his personnel. I thought he did a

646
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:08,240
Speaker 3: good job of using formation at times. If you watch

647
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 3: the ballgame, you know there was a lot of thirteen

648
00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:13,600
Speaker 3: personnel using his ballgame. But you was able to do

649
00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:15,640
Speaker 3: it in the past. Came in a run game, so

650
00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,480
Speaker 3: there's a lot too. You walk in this, you turn

651
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,000
Speaker 3: on the table and say, man, they can do a

652
00:29:21,040 --> 00:29:22,880
Speaker 3: lot of different things, well, a lot of different personnels

653
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,560
Speaker 3: with a lot of different formations and hurt you in

654
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,480
Speaker 3: multiple ways. So give those guys a lot of credit.

655
00:29:27,520 --> 00:29:29,600
Speaker 3: And then also I talked about this probably a couple

656
00:29:29,600 --> 00:29:33,440
Speaker 3: of weeks ago, was we needed other guys than just

657
00:29:33,640 --> 00:29:36,280
Speaker 3: Drake London to be a factor, and I thought they

658
00:29:36,280 --> 00:29:39,000
Speaker 3: shared the wealth in this ballgame. Obviously talked about Drumming

659
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 3: having three catches, his first catch of the game, first

660
00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,479
Speaker 3: of his career, seals, getting his first touchdown. You had

661
00:29:45,560 --> 00:29:48,320
Speaker 3: multiple guys with three catches, multiple guys with two catches,

662
00:29:48,360 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 3: so you love that. A lot of guys were a

663
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,320
Speaker 3: part of the action, and you couldn't just say, all right,

664
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,560
Speaker 3: this is the one guy we got to stop. They

665
00:29:55,600 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 3: distributed and like you said earlier, did a good job

666
00:29:57,840 --> 00:29:59,760
Speaker 3: of just distributing the ball to a lot of different guys.

667
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,640
Speaker 4: All of a sudden, the re emergence of Darnell Mooney

668
00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:05,440
Speaker 4: too right. And Mooney's first catch in the game was

669
00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 4: off of play face throw that comeback down the sideline.

670
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:09,960
Speaker 2: You talk about a catch.

671
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,360
Speaker 4: Now he goes down there on his ankles to make

672
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:12,880
Speaker 4: the grab.

673
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:14,160
Speaker 2: I thought that who was his?

674
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:16,280
Speaker 4: That was his best catch easily of this year, and

675
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,880
Speaker 4: then it seemed to spark him. But to Shock's point,

676
00:30:19,040 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 4: seven of nine in play action for one hundred and

677
00:30:22,880 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 4: seventeen yards you know Kirk through for right at two

678
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:30,120
Speaker 4: hundred yards. Well, you took advantage of those opportunities. And

679
00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:32,280
Speaker 4: I thought that, you know, give the guys up front

680
00:30:32,600 --> 00:30:35,960
Speaker 4: trying to simulate run because we talked about how play

681
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,600
Speaker 4: action sometimes the offensive lines not showing play action, so

682
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:41,000
Speaker 4: guys are bailing out of there.

683
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,120
Speaker 2: I thought they did a much better job of kind

684
00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:44,120
Speaker 2: of showing run action.

685
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:47,920
Speaker 1: All right, fellas, I turned my page over here to

686
00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: the next on our list for the show, which happened

687
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: to be turning the page to the New York Jets.

688
00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,800
Speaker 1: That's the next on the docket here.

689
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:57,040
Speaker 3: So before we go to can we put out one

690
00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:02,760
Speaker 3: last thing? I'm leaving but not need Here's where I'm surprised.

691
00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:04,880
Speaker 2: Because judge you, you know we need you.

692
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:08,280
Speaker 3: Because we talked offense and defense, but there was another

693
00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,280
Speaker 3: factor in this ball game that was which score points?

694
00:31:11,520 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 3: I thought I thought was pretty in this building last year.

695
00:31:14,360 --> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 3: Come on, I mean the third phase of the game.

696
00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 3: And we talked about earlier how they missed a couple

697
00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,320
Speaker 3: kicks in the ball game. My man Zane knocking through

698
00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:25,800
Speaker 3: a couple of fifty yarders. Yes, Mike Ford is an animal,

699
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:29,760
Speaker 3: and special team aid me agnew with some nice returns

700
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 3: in the ball game. I mean that that's a part

701
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,520
Speaker 3: of the game too. That's really special. When you get

702
00:31:33,520 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 3: that change field position, you're knocking down fifty yarders. That

703
00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:39,600
Speaker 3: demoralizes the team as well. But I thought that third

704
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:41,520
Speaker 3: phase rack was big too.

705
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:44,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't you have to go back to like Morton

706
00:31:44,200 --> 00:31:47,880
Speaker 4: Anderson more last time you've had multiple fifty plus yard

707
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,280
Speaker 4: field goals game. I believe you got to go back

708
00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,840
Speaker 4: aways for that, so Zane really to erase the memory

709
00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:56,600
Speaker 4: of what had happened to your CoA because you.

710
00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:57,120
Speaker 2: Didn't do that.

711
00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:59,920
Speaker 4: You know, had the one breakout on the kickoff return,

712
00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:02,120
Speaker 4: but the defense said, you know what, we got you back.

713
00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 1: You've got a complimentary football. But credit to Keazan Gonzales.

714
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:07,160
Speaker 1: Raheem Morris actually gave him a game ball in the

715
00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 1: locker room afterwards, because this team has been desperate for

716
00:32:11,600 --> 00:32:13,680
Speaker 1: a kicker to just go out there and have a

717
00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: lights out game, and now we need to see that

718
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:18,960
Speaker 1: week after week after week. And maybe he's a Gonzales

719
00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:21,440
Speaker 1: will get some opportunities this week against the Jets. So fellas,

720
00:32:21,520 --> 00:32:23,080
Speaker 1: let's talk a little bit about the New York Jets.

721
00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:25,960
Speaker 1: Obviously a team that has been struggling in their own

722
00:32:26,040 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: right this year two to nine, coming off of a

723
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:30,640
Speaker 1: loss to the Baltimore Ravens. Arch give us a little

724
00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 1: background as far as kind of what's going on with

725
00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: Aaron Glenn and the New York Jets. I mean, they've

726
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:37,640
Speaker 1: they've had issues with justin fields. They've turned the page

727
00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 1: of Tyrod Taylor. Still have a really good running back

728
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:42,640
Speaker 1: in the backfield, elite wide receiver on the outside. But

729
00:32:42,680 --> 00:32:44,680
Speaker 1: what is Atlanta going to see or what are the

730
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,680
Speaker 1: fans going to see when the Falcons face off.

731
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:47,880
Speaker 4: Well, you're going to see a team that wants to

732
00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,520
Speaker 4: run the football. I mean, if you go back and

733
00:32:49,520 --> 00:32:51,680
Speaker 4: look at their last couple of tapes, they've used twelve

734
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 4: and thirteen personnel. They want to try to get after

735
00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:56,960
Speaker 4: you up front. Breece Hall of course, former Iowa State

736
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,520
Speaker 4: cyclonic Breecee is the is the belt cow there. But

737
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:03,680
Speaker 4: they've got three guys that can run it. So Isaiah

738
00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:06,360
Speaker 4: Davis is a guy that can run it. And Braylan Allen,

739
00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:09,480
Speaker 4: who's who's been hurt. I think he's only played seven

740
00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,120
Speaker 4: games this year. He's been a little bit banged up,

741
00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 4: but they've got three guys that can run the rock.

742
00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:16,720
Speaker 4: Plus you've got a quarterback and Justin Field should he play,

743
00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:19,480
Speaker 4: he can run the rock. And in Tyrod Taylor, who's

744
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,120
Speaker 4: been around a long time, he can still take off

745
00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 4: if he needs to. They run the conventional college zone.

746
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:26,080
Speaker 3: Reed.

747
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:29,200
Speaker 4: They ran it this weekend against Baltimore and they're lost

748
00:33:29,200 --> 00:33:31,840
Speaker 4: to Baltimore. So you're gonna see, uh, some of that

749
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 4: college influence in the run game. On the other side

750
00:33:35,080 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 4: of the ball. I mean really, that's where you know,

751
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:39,360
Speaker 4: that's where coach Glenn gets his breads is you know,

752
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:42,920
Speaker 4: his butter's breaded or his bread his butter, bread butter.

753
00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:46,000
Speaker 2: Thank you. Easy for me to say, that's why you

754
00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:46,640
Speaker 2: host the show.

755
00:33:49,600 --> 00:33:53,800
Speaker 4: But they're still playing pretty good defensive football guys. And

756
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:56,200
Speaker 4: and I and I talked to Oldbrick about, you know,

757
00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,280
Speaker 4: getting back to Diablo and what Diablo brought to the table.

758
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,400
Speaker 4: He trying to find jam And Sherwood. That's who's one

759
00:34:04,440 --> 00:34:06,720
Speaker 4: of the linebackers who now has one hundred and two

760
00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:11,720
Speaker 4: tackles or Quincy Williams, who has you know, ninety tackles.

761
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,920
Speaker 4: What those are the two guys he was trying to

762
00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 4: find to plug into this defense because I asked him,

763
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,320
Speaker 4: I said, Wow, Diablo is a perfect fitty because I

764
00:34:20,320 --> 00:34:22,400
Speaker 4: had two of those guys in New York and so

765
00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 4: he has great respect for who they are defensively, and

766
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:27,319
Speaker 4: they're still playing at a good level defending the pass

767
00:34:27,360 --> 00:34:29,239
Speaker 4: pretty well. They've been pushed around a little bit in

768
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,640
Speaker 4: the run game. Obviously, Quinn Williams no longer there traded away,

769
00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 4: so that's a little bit of a gap in there,

770
00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 4: but they they're gonna pride themselves on playing good defense

771
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:41,080
Speaker 4: and they've been really close. Shock how many close games

772
00:34:41,120 --> 00:34:43,160
Speaker 4: does this team lost? I mean, whether four or five

773
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:45,520
Speaker 4: one score games they've they've come up with the short

774
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:46,000
Speaker 4: end of stick.

775
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:47,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, And that was kind of the same theme for

776
00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:50,560
Speaker 1: the Falcons going up into this last game is not

777
00:34:50,640 --> 00:34:53,279
Speaker 1: finding a way to come away with a win. So

778
00:34:53,280 --> 00:34:56,600
Speaker 1: they've been in that struggling situation where teams are just

779
00:34:56,600 --> 00:35:00,120
Speaker 1: trying to fight their way out of a hole. Shak.

780
00:35:00,239 --> 00:35:02,160
Speaker 1: This question is kind of a simple layup question.

781
00:35:02,200 --> 00:35:02,840
Speaker 2: Is this one.

782
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,880
Speaker 1: About what the Jets are gonna do or is this

783
00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,680
Speaker 1: one about what Atlanta needs to do themselves.

784
00:35:07,719 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 3: I think it's a little bit of both, obviously, But

785
00:35:10,120 --> 00:35:12,000
Speaker 3: I think you look back at the way this team

786
00:35:12,040 --> 00:35:15,320
Speaker 3: played last week, it felt like more about the Falcons,

787
00:35:15,440 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 3: more about their execution, more about them playing as one.

788
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 3: And you just mentioned it. Playing complimentary football that travels,

789
00:35:22,600 --> 00:35:25,279
Speaker 3: that goes anywhere, being able to run the football that travels,

790
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:28,160
Speaker 3: taking care of the football, getting sacks. Those are all

791
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:31,400
Speaker 3: things that regardless of your opponent, that equals probably a

792
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:34,000
Speaker 3: win for you. So I think more than anything, if

793
00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:38,040
Speaker 3: this team goes out and plays the way they are expected,

794
00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:40,200
Speaker 3: which is within this building, they feel like that's the

795
00:35:40,239 --> 00:35:43,040
Speaker 3: kind of performance they should have every week. And we've

796
00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:45,160
Speaker 3: talked about it. They've been in a bunch of one

797
00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,720
Speaker 3: score ball games this year, just haven't been able to finish.

798
00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 3: So I tell you this team has been there regardless

799
00:35:49,960 --> 00:35:52,400
Speaker 3: of the opponent. They played really good teams, play teams

800
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 3: who maybe not have really good records, but they have

801
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 3: found ways to at the end of ball games not

802
00:35:57,360 --> 00:36:00,200
Speaker 3: finish them. Well. On last Sunday, you just found the

803
00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:02,719
Speaker 3: way to go finish a ball game. And I think

804
00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:05,080
Speaker 3: that comes down to you doing what you need to

805
00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 3: do to go within a ball game. And yeah, the

806
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:09,359
Speaker 3: Jets are gonna pose a couple of issues for you.

807
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,080
Speaker 3: I mean, just talked about a couple guys on the

808
00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,200
Speaker 3: defense side of the ball who are game records. You

809
00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:15,960
Speaker 3: gotta know what those guys are, Guys who can really

810
00:36:16,160 --> 00:36:18,160
Speaker 3: force the issue when it comes to maybe you in

811
00:36:18,200 --> 00:36:21,239
Speaker 3: the run game offensively. Brece Hall is a guy who

812
00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,239
Speaker 3: you gotta worry about in the run game and the

813
00:36:23,280 --> 00:36:25,000
Speaker 3: past game. If you go out there and say, you

814
00:36:25,040 --> 00:36:27,680
Speaker 3: know what, we're not worried about this cyclone doing, We're

815
00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:31,279
Speaker 3: just gonna you know, guess what he go. He gonna

816
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 3: hit you for a big day on the ground and

817
00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:35,960
Speaker 3: in the air. So yeah, you gotta go in prepare

818
00:36:36,000 --> 00:36:38,279
Speaker 3: for certain guys. But the end of the day, what

819
00:36:38,320 --> 00:36:41,320
Speaker 3: you've done, what you've shown is if you executed the

820
00:36:41,400 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 3: level that you're supposed to, ultimately that's enough to go

821
00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:47,719
Speaker 3: win your ball game. And I think that's possible. All right.

822
00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:50,640
Speaker 1: So to finish up for fellas, we're gonna do our

823
00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:55,600
Speaker 1: keys to the game. Everybody's I'm gonna start here that way.

824
00:36:55,600 --> 00:37:01,160
Speaker 1: I give you think about it before you guys take

825
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,919
Speaker 1: over and host the show without it. Yeah, it's from

826
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:07,840
Speaker 1: Dave Archer, guys, because I saw it last week and

827
00:37:07,880 --> 00:37:11,400
Speaker 1: I felt like that's what needs to continue is minimizing

828
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:15,200
Speaker 1: explosive plays on defense. I think when this defense is

829
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:19,000
Speaker 1: able to keep everything in front of them, they are

830
00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 1: able to go eat as the kids say, right, But

831
00:37:22,200 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 1: what happens is, all of a sudden, if you get

832
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,600
Speaker 1: broken tackle, forty yard run, if you get fifty eight

833
00:37:27,680 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 1: yard pass like now, it's kind of like everything's reeling right,

834
00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:33,879
Speaker 1: like we're trying to we gotta give they got great

835
00:37:33,880 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 1: field position, like everybody's got to refocus, and then all

836
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:38,320
Speaker 1: of a sudden, you look up and they score a touchdown.

837
00:37:38,400 --> 00:37:38,560
Speaker 3: Right.

838
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:42,560
Speaker 1: I feel like if they minimize explosive plays, keep everything

839
00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:45,760
Speaker 1: in front of them, and then they can just attack, attack, attack, attack.

840
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: That's what we saw last week against New Orleans. I

841
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,640
Speaker 1: think good things are gonna happen, and I'm looking forward

842
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:53,480
Speaker 1: to seeing that the defense can stack another positive.

843
00:37:53,080 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 2: Performance on the top of it last week.

844
00:37:55,080 --> 00:37:55,239
Speaker 3: Arch.

845
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,160
Speaker 1: What is your key to this game?

846
00:37:57,239 --> 00:38:00,440
Speaker 4: I think that I'm gonna look to You're going to

847
00:38:00,480 --> 00:38:02,719
Speaker 4: go outside and you and it's supposed to be the

848
00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:04,319
Speaker 4: weather's not supposed to be great up there. I think

849
00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 4: that they're talking about the high forties rain. It seems

850
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,759
Speaker 4: like every time we go. We played in New York

851
00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:12,919
Speaker 4: at rains. But and we've had some brutal games up there.

852
00:38:13,360 --> 00:38:15,200
Speaker 4: Remember when Matt Ryan had to take snaps from the

853
00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 4: shotgun because he couldn't get the snaps under center. It

854
00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 4: was just I mean, so you get some nasty weather

855
00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,399
Speaker 4: up there in Jersey, so at this time of year,

856
00:38:24,040 --> 00:38:26,640
Speaker 4: So I'm going to talk about ball security. I think

857
00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:30,040
Speaker 4: that Atlanta has been really good over the last few

858
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,960
Speaker 4: weeks with the sacks and the takeaways, right, and they've

859
00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,520
Speaker 4: done a very good job of taking care of the football. Now,

860
00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:40,440
Speaker 4: all of a sudden, you're outside and our guys, for

861
00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,960
Speaker 4: whatever reason, haven't had to deal with that very much.

862
00:38:43,120 --> 00:38:45,359
Speaker 4: And so you've got guys that are going to carry

863
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:47,680
Speaker 4: the football. But Jon has had to ball punched out

864
00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:50,120
Speaker 4: a couple of times. Tyler's been pretty good about taking

865
00:38:50,160 --> 00:38:52,800
Speaker 4: care of the ball. We've had a tough time catching

866
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:56,080
Speaker 4: the football in a couple of positions, and so the

867
00:38:56,120 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 4: weather and wind and a little bit of rain is

868
00:38:58,800 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 4: going to accentuate that. So I'm spending the ball security

869
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,640
Speaker 4: in catching you know, catch the football when it comes

870
00:39:04,680 --> 00:39:06,920
Speaker 4: to you. So just taking care of the ball and

871
00:39:06,960 --> 00:39:08,919
Speaker 4: then obviously getting it out. Can you get it out

872
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:10,920
Speaker 4: from the jets, So that that's kind of where I'm leaning.

873
00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 4: It's not obviously you can say turnovers, because turnovers would

874
00:39:14,719 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 4: be a key every time. There's two teams that have

875
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,000
Speaker 4: sub five hundred records during the top ten in giveaway takeaway,

876
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,880
Speaker 4: Atlanta's one of them. Atlanta's ranked eighth in the league

877
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:26,680
Speaker 4: at plus five giveaway takeaway, and that's provided you opportunities

878
00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:28,359
Speaker 4: to be close. Now, you haven't been able to finish

879
00:39:28,480 --> 00:39:30,680
Speaker 4: until this last weekend, but that's going to give you

880
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:31,680
Speaker 4: an opportunity to win the game.

881
00:39:31,719 --> 00:39:33,319
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna go that route with shock, which you got,

882
00:39:33,320 --> 00:39:35,840
Speaker 2: I like it. I like it what you got for me.

883
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:38,520
Speaker 3: I think a big kid in this ball game is

884
00:39:38,680 --> 00:39:42,160
Speaker 3: forcing Tyrod or whoever's playing quarterback to win from the pocket.

885
00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:44,080
Speaker 3: And I think we've shown that Billy Baby, get after

886
00:39:44,080 --> 00:39:46,440
Speaker 3: the quarterback with four, with five, whatever it is, I

887
00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:48,719
Speaker 3: think we can win those lists. Maybe get to the

888
00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:51,680
Speaker 3: quarterback where you don't want either of these guys to

889
00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:53,960
Speaker 3: be as outside the pocket creating and they can do

890
00:39:54,040 --> 00:39:57,759
Speaker 3: with their legs. And sometimes as a guy who was

891
00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,640
Speaker 3: athletic like this, sometimes you feel comfortable outside that pocket too.

892
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:03,920
Speaker 3: And you made a lot of plays when you were

893
00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,560
Speaker 3: trying to create or guys weren't plastering. I think you're

894
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 3: good enough on the back end to if you just

895
00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,960
Speaker 3: rush four, you rush three, whatever it is to be

896
00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:13,320
Speaker 3: able to cover up the back end. Like you just mentioned,

897
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,279
Speaker 3: the offered played really well, is really good on it.

898
00:40:15,400 --> 00:40:16,680
Speaker 3: He's gonna be a guy that's gonna be in that

899
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:19,920
Speaker 3: spot this week, bro, probably for the rest of the season. Obviously,

900
00:40:19,960 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 3: aj coming back was a big deal. Hughes watch got

901
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:24,480
Speaker 3: his you know what, he had third pick of the

902
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,160
Speaker 3: ball game of the season. So I think you got

903
00:40:27,160 --> 00:40:29,839
Speaker 3: some guys who are definitely capable if you have to

904
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:32,280
Speaker 3: just rush three or four, which leaves you more covered.

905
00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:34,759
Speaker 3: So I think forcing those guys to play for within

906
00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:37,440
Speaker 3: the pocket. Of these guys are really accurate throwing the football.

907
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,400
Speaker 3: I think Tyrod's around sixty one percent. And you know,

908
00:40:40,440 --> 00:40:42,879
Speaker 3: obviously Justin's had a tough jime throwing the football. This

909
00:40:42,960 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 3: is a pass offense that's thirty second in the NFL,

910
00:40:47,360 --> 00:40:49,360
Speaker 3: only averaging one hundred and forty five yards a game.

911
00:40:49,960 --> 00:40:51,640
Speaker 3: So if you can force him to try to beat

912
00:40:51,680 --> 00:40:53,960
Speaker 3: you from the pocket, I think you feel good about that,

913
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:58,359
Speaker 3: and they'll give you a few two So let's force

914
00:40:58,400 --> 00:41:01,759
Speaker 3: those guys to stay within the pocket, great Russian integrity

915
00:41:01,800 --> 00:41:03,640
Speaker 3: and just go get to quarterback like we've already been

916
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:05,040
Speaker 3: doing rock real quickly.

917
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:08,879
Speaker 4: A piece that I'm interested in from your perspective, having

918
00:41:08,920 --> 00:41:11,560
Speaker 4: been a big part of the special teams units for here,

919
00:41:12,080 --> 00:41:15,160
Speaker 4: is when you get a team like the Jets, what

920
00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:17,839
Speaker 4: are they two in ten, two and nine something along

921
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:21,040
Speaker 4: those lines. Okay, And so from a trade stamp, they've

922
00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,000
Speaker 4: done a lot of stuff up there, so they're setting

923
00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,640
Speaker 4: the table for and they're looking to next season, right, Okay,

924
00:41:26,280 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 4: they've already been eliminated from the playoffs and those kind

925
00:41:28,640 --> 00:41:33,400
Speaker 4: of things. So how dangerous does that make Aaron Glenn's team,

926
00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:36,840
Speaker 4: especially on special teams where some of the Shenanigans stuff

927
00:41:36,840 --> 00:41:37,719
Speaker 4: you can pull there.

928
00:41:37,960 --> 00:41:40,359
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is one of those games where you have

929
00:41:40,440 --> 00:41:43,360
Speaker 1: to go in and expecting something like that fake punt,

930
00:41:43,640 --> 00:41:47,120
Speaker 1: fake field goal, some type of like a reverse, a

931
00:41:47,280 --> 00:41:50,200
Speaker 1: throwback on kickoff return. Maybe like these are all the

932
00:41:50,239 --> 00:41:54,120
Speaker 1: times when they always say like nothing to lose, right,

933
00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,000
Speaker 1: or maybe this is something that they've been thinking about

934
00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,000
Speaker 1: all season long, and it's like, you know what, let's

935
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:02,680
Speaker 1: just let a rip now. So even though Atlanta has

936
00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,000
Speaker 1: had some issues on that third phase of the game. Right,

937
00:42:06,040 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: whether it's been big returns or it's been the missed

938
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,880
Speaker 1: field goals, this is one of those where you definitely

939
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:12,680
Speaker 1: got to be on your p's and q However, they

940
00:42:12,680 --> 00:42:15,799
Speaker 1: can create an advantage for themselves, right if things are struggling,

941
00:42:15,920 --> 00:42:19,280
Speaker 1: like maybe it's a fourth and five that they decide

942
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:20,799
Speaker 1: that they're going to go for it, or you get

943
00:42:21,120 --> 00:42:23,759
Speaker 1: some type of center head bob on a punt team

944
00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:26,240
Speaker 1: trying to get just trying to get a little free

945
00:42:26,280 --> 00:42:27,879
Speaker 1: penalty right to get him a first down.

946
00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:28,600
Speaker 2: You just never know.

947
00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:32,479
Speaker 1: These It's a great point. These are the type of game. Yeah,

948
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:36,160
Speaker 1: absolutely we have those head bob on two.

949
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,000
Speaker 2: Anytime it was.

950
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 3: Fourth and four, fourth you never did that.

951
00:42:41,239 --> 00:42:43,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, just you know, kind of move of a little

952
00:42:43,239 --> 00:42:48,640
Speaker 5: finger on top of the football or something I experience nothing,

953
00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 5: all right.

954
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:54,000
Speaker 1: Three keys of the game Racks was limited explosive plays,

955
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,720
Speaker 1: arch was ball security potentially in the elements. And shocks

956
00:42:57,920 --> 00:43:01,240
Speaker 1: was let's force these quarterbacks to win from the pocket.

957
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:02,520
Speaker 2: I think if we look.

958

Speaker 1: Back next week, look back at those three, if they

959
00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:09,160
