00:01:04,588 --> 00:01:04,668
Speaker 5: X.

20
00:01:05,108 --> 00:01:10,948
Speaker 6: Head coach of the New England Patriots, Mike rabel I.

21
00:01:11,068 --> 00:01:14,748
Speaker 7: Had a great opportunity to play for some unbelievable mentors.

22
00:01:15,028 --> 00:01:16,828
Speaker 4: Make the commitment towards a championship.

23
00:01:16,868 --> 00:01:17,868
Speaker 8: That's Warkle is.

24
00:01:17,908 --> 00:01:25,388
Speaker 9: Get the ark times, Brady Myers, Enzo puts down.

25
00:01:23,428 --> 00:01:25,468
Speaker 10: All right, and adults come out.

26
00:01:25,508 --> 00:01:27,748
Speaker 11: In January, Yes, it's a dynasty.

27
00:01:28,468 --> 00:01:30,748
Speaker 2: Crable is just built for this, isn't he Mike Rabel

28
00:01:30,828 --> 00:01:33,108
Speaker 2: leading the Patriots now as a head coach to a

29
00:01:33,148 --> 00:01:35,348
Speaker 2: Super Bowl in which he is quite familiar with on

30
00:01:35,388 --> 00:01:38,548
Speaker 2: the big stage. Jamie Manti and Isaac gosh I started

31
00:01:38,548 --> 00:01:39,828
Speaker 2: the show saying, the kids.

32
00:01:39,548 --> 00:01:41,588
Speaker 4: Say off the chain.

33
00:01:42,148 --> 00:01:44,628
Speaker 2: I think because I say it, and I just think

34
00:01:44,628 --> 00:01:47,028
Speaker 2: of myself as a child, but I'm not anymore. Isaac,

35
00:01:47,028 --> 00:01:48,668
Speaker 2: you're laughing at me because you're younger than me, and

36
00:01:48,668 --> 00:01:49,668
Speaker 2: you're like, the kids don't say that.

37
00:01:49,708 --> 00:01:52,828
Speaker 1: Jamie, I don't think I've ever seen off I mean,

38
00:01:52,828 --> 00:01:54,148
Speaker 1: have you said off the chain?

39
00:01:54,228 --> 00:01:54,748
Speaker 8: Off the chain?

40
00:01:54,788 --> 00:01:54,868
Speaker 10: No?

41
00:01:55,028 --> 00:01:56,228
Speaker 8: Never, it's off the chain?

42
00:01:56,468 --> 00:01:57,108
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.

43
00:01:57,388 --> 00:01:59,988
Speaker 2: You know who probably says it, Mike Rabel. Let's dive

44
00:02:00,028 --> 00:02:02,788
Speaker 2: into the Patriots here, because he's older than me, so

45
00:02:02,828 --> 00:02:03,508
Speaker 2: he qualifies.

46
00:02:03,588 --> 00:02:03,868
Speaker 12: Uh.

47
00:02:03,948 --> 00:02:05,868
Speaker 2: Because if it feels like it's hard to find anyone

48
00:02:05,948 --> 00:02:08,628
Speaker 2: right now who doesn't think the Seahawks are going to

49
00:02:09,588 --> 00:02:11,868
Speaker 2: take it to the Patriots in this game. The Seahawks

50
00:02:11,908 --> 00:02:15,388
Speaker 2: are talented, They've beat great teams. They are well on

51
00:02:15,428 --> 00:02:18,588
Speaker 2: their way MANSI to being a proven Super Bowl opponent

52
00:02:18,628 --> 00:02:21,228
Speaker 2: to the Patriots. Why are we overlooking New England?

53
00:02:21,228 --> 00:02:21,428
Speaker 8: Though?

54
00:02:21,428 --> 00:02:24,028
Speaker 7: In this point, why just think you alluded it to

55
00:02:24,188 --> 00:02:26,308
Speaker 7: a little bit, Jamie. Is when you look at the

56
00:02:26,348 --> 00:02:29,268
Speaker 7: body of work right between these two teams, the Patriots

57
00:02:29,348 --> 00:02:32,188
Speaker 7: versus the Seahawks so far this season. You think about

58
00:02:32,228 --> 00:02:35,988
Speaker 7: the pat signature wins, probably the first Bills game at

59
00:02:36,068 --> 00:02:37,988
Speaker 7: high Mark Stadium, that's when I really think they came

60
00:02:38,028 --> 00:02:41,748
Speaker 7: on the scene. And then after that, maybe the Baltimore

61
00:02:41,908 --> 00:02:44,708
Speaker 7: Ravens game where they wont late in the fourth quarter.

62
00:02:45,188 --> 00:02:47,468
Speaker 7: And then you look at the Seattle Seahawks, the Jags win,

63
00:02:47,548 --> 00:02:50,348
Speaker 7: the Houston win, all of the Rams games that they played,

64
00:02:50,388 --> 00:02:53,428
Speaker 7: the Niners games where they shut out the Niners or

65
00:02:53,828 --> 00:02:56,228
Speaker 7: really put a beating on them the last game of

66
00:02:56,268 --> 00:02:58,708
Speaker 7: the season. And I look at it and it reminds

67
00:02:58,708 --> 00:03:01,468
Speaker 7: me of gymnastics a little bit. It's the same event, right,

68
00:03:01,508 --> 00:03:06,548
Speaker 7: whether it's four exercise or whatever exercise it is. Both

69
00:03:06,588 --> 00:03:11,468
Speaker 7: have great execution scores, just one has a different level

70
00:03:11,588 --> 00:03:14,948
Speaker 7: of difficulty, and that's the Seattle Seahawks.

71
00:03:15,028 --> 00:03:15,548
Speaker 3: Now, when you.

72
00:03:15,548 --> 00:03:18,748
Speaker 7: Have a different level of difficulty, you get higher points,

73
00:03:19,548 --> 00:03:23,028
Speaker 7: there's more style points to your routine. And it doesn't

74
00:03:23,028 --> 00:03:26,548
Speaker 7: mean that the Pats didn't have a perfect score. It's

75
00:03:26,588 --> 00:03:29,588
Speaker 7: just right now, the Seattle Seahawks and the way that

76
00:03:29,628 --> 00:03:33,428
Speaker 7: they've been playing offense, defense, and special teams. They've had

77
00:03:33,468 --> 00:03:36,628
Speaker 7: the harder schedule, they've gone through the harder teams, and

78
00:03:36,708 --> 00:03:39,908
Speaker 7: they've won in spectacular fashion. And so I think that's

79
00:03:39,908 --> 00:03:42,868
Speaker 7: why when fans or people look at this matchup, they

80
00:03:42,868 --> 00:03:44,748
Speaker 7: look at a team that's been through a lot but

81
00:03:44,828 --> 00:03:47,708
Speaker 7: has stuck the land in every single time. So I

82
00:03:48,108 --> 00:03:50,348
Speaker 7: would have to go to that Isaac as to why

83
00:03:50,388 --> 00:03:53,188
Speaker 7: the Patriots maybe being quote unquote overloads.

84
00:03:53,268 --> 00:03:54,508
Speaker 8: Yeah, you sound like a true girl.

85
00:03:54,548 --> 00:03:54,748
Speaker 10: Dad.

86
00:03:54,788 --> 00:03:58,828
Speaker 7: By the way, like gymnastics.

87
00:03:58,868 --> 00:04:01,308
Speaker 2: Also, in the month of the Olympics that are about

88
00:04:01,308 --> 00:04:04,228
Speaker 2: to be upon us, like that becomes a gymnastics very easy.

89
00:04:05,028 --> 00:04:06,788
Speaker 2: Maybe it's more of a figure skating thing, but we

90
00:04:06,828 --> 00:04:07,308
Speaker 2: hear you.

91
00:04:07,308 --> 00:04:09,388
Speaker 1: But it's still stick to landing. Obviously, I need to

92
00:04:09,428 --> 00:04:11,508
Speaker 1: lock in because I need to know more. But you're

93
00:04:11,508 --> 00:04:13,508
Speaker 1: bringing up some good points. I look at this game

94
00:04:13,548 --> 00:04:15,228
Speaker 1: and I'm like, I kind of feel like this is

95
00:04:15,268 --> 00:04:18,308
Speaker 1: just a game of quarterbacks. Because defensively, these teams are

96
00:04:18,308 --> 00:04:21,188
Speaker 1: evenly matched. They both have great special teams units, they

97
00:04:21,188 --> 00:04:23,788
Speaker 1: have pieces around the quarterback that are really important. So

98
00:04:23,828 --> 00:04:26,308
Speaker 1: then naturally you have to look at the quarterback position,

99
00:04:26,348 --> 00:04:27,908
Speaker 1: and say who do we think is going to play better?

100
00:04:27,948 --> 00:04:30,308
Speaker 1: That's really what it comes down to. And I look

101
00:04:30,348 --> 00:04:32,108
Speaker 1: at Sam Darnold and I look at the way that

102
00:04:32,148 --> 00:04:34,788
Speaker 1: he's ascending in these playoffs. I think about his last game,

103
00:04:34,868 --> 00:04:37,228
Speaker 1: it was nearly perfect. And then I look at Drake

104
00:04:37,348 --> 00:04:41,468
Speaker 1: May just throughout the playoffs, especially compared to his regular season,

105
00:04:41,708 --> 00:04:43,908
Speaker 1: and I don't know that I have the same confidence

106
00:04:43,908 --> 00:04:46,228
Speaker 1: in Drake May. I think the natural question to ask,

107
00:04:46,588 --> 00:04:48,668
Speaker 1: and I said this before in this show, is who

108
00:04:48,788 --> 00:04:51,348
Speaker 1: is Drake May in these situations? You know, you think

109
00:04:51,348 --> 00:04:55,748
Speaker 1: about Tom Brady, the Patriot great. He was phenomenal when

110
00:04:55,788 --> 00:04:57,828
Speaker 1: it came to postseason. It's like the light turned on

111
00:04:57,988 --> 00:04:59,908
Speaker 1: even more than it was already on, and he became

112
00:04:59,948 --> 00:05:02,868
Speaker 1: this phenomenal quarterback. Look at Drake May, and you know

113
00:05:02,948 --> 00:05:06,148
Speaker 1: this isn't all just all about stats. But it's not

114
00:05:06,188 --> 00:05:08,228
Speaker 1: like he's taking over in these games. In fact, his

115
00:05:08,308 --> 00:05:11,308
Speaker 1: turnovers have been He has eight turnovers in the playoffs.

116
00:05:11,348 --> 00:05:12,668
Speaker 1: That was the same that he had in the entire

117
00:05:12,708 --> 00:05:15,228
Speaker 1: regular season. You know, you got to think about that.

118
00:05:15,348 --> 00:05:17,668
Speaker 1: Sam Donald's the opposite. He's a sending, which is what

119
00:05:17,748 --> 00:05:19,828
Speaker 1: you want when you're going into a Championship game. So

120
00:05:20,228 --> 00:05:21,708
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people just have a question

121
00:05:21,748 --> 00:05:24,148
Speaker 1: mark of who is Drake May in the situation Manti's over?

122
00:05:24,268 --> 00:05:26,748
Speaker 1: You did Manta have let you had a little comeback

123
00:05:26,788 --> 00:05:27,108
Speaker 1: on Well.

124
00:05:27,108 --> 00:05:28,748
Speaker 2: I was just going to add, even to Isaac your

125
00:05:28,788 --> 00:05:32,588
Speaker 2: point that after the game in the CBS broadcast, Drake

126
00:05:32,628 --> 00:05:34,748
Speaker 2: May is up there on the podium saying like I

127
00:05:34,788 --> 00:05:37,188
Speaker 2: am going to play better. I Am going to play better.

128
00:05:37,228 --> 00:05:39,308
Speaker 2: And it's like, Drake, you got two weeks now, like

129
00:05:39,348 --> 00:05:41,868
Speaker 2: we're there. There is no other option now than to

130
00:05:42,108 --> 00:05:44,228
Speaker 2: step up and play better. So it's a great point

131
00:05:44,308 --> 00:05:46,428
Speaker 2: about where Donald is at in terms of his level,

132
00:05:46,588 --> 00:05:48,748
Speaker 2: but also Drake has an awareness for what he has

133
00:05:48,788 --> 00:05:49,188
Speaker 2: to become.

134
00:05:49,308 --> 00:05:51,828
Speaker 7: Well, you know, to support your point, Isaac, when you

135
00:05:51,828 --> 00:05:55,108
Speaker 7: look at Drake May's performance last week, but in AFC Championship,

136
00:05:55,188 --> 00:05:58,068
Speaker 7: that was the worst game that he played statistically in

137
00:05:58,108 --> 00:05:59,788
Speaker 7: his entire career, not just in the.

138
00:05:59,748 --> 00:06:01,348
Speaker 3: Season, it's entire career.

139
00:06:01,668 --> 00:06:04,188
Speaker 7: Now, obviously the weather elements are there, but I also

140
00:06:04,228 --> 00:06:07,188
Speaker 7: think that when you put it into context, Drake May

141
00:06:07,228 --> 00:06:10,148
Speaker 7: played the Texans, he played the Broncos, and he's about to.

142
00:06:10,108 --> 00:06:11,148
Speaker 3: Play the Seattle Seahawks.

143
00:06:11,268 --> 00:06:15,348
Speaker 7: Yeah, those three teams are one, two and three defense.

144
00:06:15,588 --> 00:06:18,548
Speaker 7: He's not playing some defenses that are in the mid

145
00:06:18,628 --> 00:06:19,188
Speaker 7: middle of the.

146
00:06:19,148 --> 00:06:20,668
Speaker 3: Pack or late in the pack.

147
00:06:21,188 --> 00:06:25,428
Speaker 7: He's playing teams defensive units that get after the quarterback,

148
00:06:25,708 --> 00:06:28,268
Speaker 7: they take away the football, and they put points on

149
00:06:28,308 --> 00:06:31,148
Speaker 7: the board. And so just I know that statistically he

150
00:06:32,108 --> 00:06:34,748
Speaker 7: hasn't been the Drake Drake may May that we've been

151
00:06:34,828 --> 00:06:37,228
Speaker 7: used to seeing throughout the first seventeen weeks of the season.

152
00:06:37,628 --> 00:06:39,828
Speaker 7: But in the playoffs you are going to play some dogs,

153
00:06:39,908 --> 00:06:42,628
Speaker 7: and he's probably played the scariest dogs in those in

154
00:06:42,708 --> 00:06:46,108
Speaker 7: those two teams, and he's about to play probably the scariest.

155
00:06:45,708 --> 00:06:48,228
Speaker 3: Of them all next week's Sunday in the Super Bowl.

156
00:06:48,268 --> 00:06:50,868
Speaker 3: So there is some credit that you have to give to.

157
00:06:50,788 --> 00:06:52,708
Speaker 7: The young man that he stood in there and still

158
00:06:53,148 --> 00:06:54,348
Speaker 7: his team that's fall the way to win.

159
00:06:54,468 --> 00:06:56,068
Speaker 2: Keep all this footage in your mind, as I asked

160
00:06:56,108 --> 00:06:58,428
Speaker 2: you this question. It's really unfair too, because the AFC

161
00:06:58,468 --> 00:06:59,708
Speaker 2: title game you really only.

162
00:06:59,548 --> 00:07:01,828
Speaker 4: Have a half of football to really inspect, because with.

163
00:07:01,788 --> 00:07:04,188
Speaker 2: The snow coming down in Denver like that Ahelia, that doesn't

164
00:07:04,188 --> 00:07:07,628
Speaker 2: count as two quarters of football to inspect. But I'll

165
00:07:07,628 --> 00:07:09,268
Speaker 2: ask Isaac this question. Then I want to hear from

166
00:07:09,268 --> 00:07:11,788
Speaker 2: Mansi as well. There was the footage after the Texans

167
00:07:11,828 --> 00:07:15,188
Speaker 2: game where Mike Rabel's standing in the hallway and he

168
00:07:15,228 --> 00:07:17,028
Speaker 2: greets all of his players as he comes at him

169
00:07:17,068 --> 00:07:22,148
Speaker 2: after wins. Well, his left guard in Will Campbell, coming

170
00:07:22,268 --> 00:07:25,588
Speaker 2: up looks disappointed as all get out, and Rabel's like.

171
00:07:25,588 --> 00:07:27,068
Speaker 4: Come on, come on, we got this.

172
00:07:27,108 --> 00:07:31,228
Speaker 2: You got He's not pleased for all accounts people claim

173
00:07:31,228 --> 00:07:34,148
Speaker 2: not playing great in his rookie season. He's had his moments,

174
00:07:34,188 --> 00:07:35,028
Speaker 2: He's been injured.

175
00:07:35,628 --> 00:07:37,188
Speaker 4: You see that as a defensive end.

176
00:07:37,388 --> 00:07:39,908
Speaker 2: You see that as a part of the Seahawks defensive line,

177
00:07:39,948 --> 00:07:42,468
Speaker 2: A young rookie guy who was supposed to protect Drake May.

178
00:07:42,668 --> 00:07:44,708
Speaker 4: What's going through your mind? I had a Super Bowl sixty.

179
00:07:44,868 --> 00:07:47,868
Speaker 1: Well, let's be even more specific. If he was playing

180
00:07:47,868 --> 00:07:50,628
Speaker 1: phenomenal and he's still a rookie and I'm listening to

181
00:07:50,628 --> 00:07:52,868
Speaker 1: my D line coach in these meetings, my D line

182
00:07:52,868 --> 00:07:54,668
Speaker 1: coach is going to point him out regardless, because you're

183
00:07:54,668 --> 00:07:59,108
Speaker 1: going to attack a rookie olignment always. Also McDonald keep

184
00:07:59,148 --> 00:08:00,468
Speaker 1: pressures a lot. They're going to bring a lot of

185
00:08:00,468 --> 00:08:02,668
Speaker 1: pressure and they're going to attack him. So I don't

186
00:08:02,668 --> 00:08:04,748
Speaker 1: want to just attack Will Campbell. But at the end

187
00:08:04,748 --> 00:08:06,668
Speaker 1: of the day, they definitely are looking at him saying,

188
00:08:06,708 --> 00:08:09,188
Speaker 1: how can we build an entire rest plan against this guy?

189
00:08:09,508 --> 00:08:13,148
Speaker 1: How can we draw blitzes everything against this guy. I mean,

190
00:08:13,188 --> 00:08:15,948
Speaker 1: he's definitely going to be a target. And I think

191
00:08:16,028 --> 00:08:18,308
Speaker 1: the biggest thing though, is he doesn't have the noise

192
00:08:18,348 --> 00:08:20,148
Speaker 1: of a coach or things like that in his ear.

193
00:08:20,268 --> 00:08:20,988
Speaker 8: So it's gonna help.

194
00:08:21,028 --> 00:08:24,548
Speaker 1: Like this scene of him giving giving him a hug, Rabel,

195
00:08:24,588 --> 00:08:28,828
Speaker 1: this connection like that matters. But ultimately the Seahawks are

196
00:08:28,628 --> 00:08:31,828
Speaker 1: their mouths are watering, their mouths are watering thinking about this.

197
00:08:31,908 --> 00:08:34,028
Speaker 7: Well, I go back to the interview that you had

198
00:08:34,028 --> 00:08:36,148
Speaker 7: with him, Jamie when you got drafted, and he said, no,

199
00:08:36,188 --> 00:08:38,068
Speaker 7: I would die for Drake May. You don't got to

200
00:08:38,108 --> 00:08:39,708
Speaker 7: die for Drake May. You just got a block from

201
00:08:39,708 --> 00:08:41,468
Speaker 7: and you know, you want to make sure that you

202
00:08:41,548 --> 00:08:44,348
Speaker 7: are able to do those in certain situations, but also

203
00:08:44,428 --> 00:08:47,188
Speaker 7: understand the challenges that come a plane left tackle.

204
00:08:47,748 --> 00:08:48,908
Speaker 3: That's a blind spot, right.

205
00:08:48,988 --> 00:08:52,628
Speaker 7: So to that point, Josh McDaniels, you know, have some chips,

206
00:08:52,668 --> 00:08:54,388
Speaker 7: have some tight ends lined up over there to help

207
00:08:54,468 --> 00:08:56,588
Speaker 7: out the young rookie because he is still a rookie

208
00:08:56,828 --> 00:08:58,788
Speaker 7: and there are going to be some guys that are

209
00:08:58,788 --> 00:09:01,428
Speaker 7: going to line up on the opposite side of them

210
00:09:01,748 --> 00:09:03,588
Speaker 7: that they're going to try to take advantage of maybe

211
00:09:03,588 --> 00:09:05,668
Speaker 7: some of his weaknesses in his young career so far.

212
00:09:05,828 --> 00:09:07,228
Speaker 3: So it's not only just on.

213
00:09:07,308 --> 00:09:09,868
Speaker 7: Will Campbell, but is also on Josh McDaniels and given

214
00:09:09,948 --> 00:09:10,908
Speaker 7: his young rookie some help.

215
00:09:10,988 --> 00:09:13,348
Speaker 2: We started this hour by looking at a throwback video

216
00:09:13,468 --> 00:09:15,548
Speaker 2: of Mike Rabel and all that he has represented for

217
00:09:15,628 --> 00:09:16,668
Speaker 2: the New England Patriots.

218
00:09:16,668 --> 00:09:18,228
Speaker 4: Mantail to you up on this one.

219
00:09:18,428 --> 00:09:21,068
Speaker 2: The last time the Patriots were this severe of an

220
00:09:21,188 --> 00:09:24,148
Speaker 2: underdog in a Super Bowl, it was against a Rams

221
00:09:24,188 --> 00:09:26,428
Speaker 2: team the Curt Warner Like, we know how that went,

222
00:09:26,468 --> 00:09:28,868
Speaker 2: and Rabel was on that team. So we may see

223
00:09:28,868 --> 00:09:32,148
Speaker 2: another lesson plan put in place beyond just the Warriors

224
00:09:32,148 --> 00:09:35,188
Speaker 2: and the bottles clinking, where Rabel's able to say, like, listen, guys,

225
00:09:35,228 --> 00:09:36,588
Speaker 2: I've been here and look at what I was able

226
00:09:36,588 --> 00:09:37,588
Speaker 2: to Occolm Well James.

227
00:09:38,148 --> 00:09:40,148
Speaker 7: The last Super Bowl that these guys played in the

228
00:09:40,228 --> 00:09:43,428
Speaker 7: Seattle Seahawks and the Patriots. Yeah, the Pats are a

229
00:09:43,508 --> 00:09:47,028
Speaker 7: one point underdog, right, So it's not about who's the

230
00:09:47,148 --> 00:09:49,948
Speaker 7: underdog and who's a favorite. We all know that being

231
00:09:49,988 --> 00:09:53,548
Speaker 7: the best on paper, being the best statistically does not

232
00:09:53,588 --> 00:09:56,068
Speaker 7: win you football games. The best team that plays on

233
00:09:56,188 --> 00:09:58,188
Speaker 7: Sunday will win this game.

234
00:09:58,228 --> 00:10:00,228
Speaker 3: Whether it's the Patriots or whether it's the Seahawks.

235
00:10:00,308 --> 00:10:02,668
Speaker 7: You could have the most explosive weapons on your team,

236
00:10:02,988 --> 00:10:05,748
Speaker 7: but if those weapons are duds that day, guess what

237
00:10:05,828 --> 00:10:07,668
Speaker 7: you're gonna lose. And so that's the beauty of this

238
00:10:07,788 --> 00:10:12,428
Speaker 7: game is whoever shows up Drake May, Sam Darnold, Pat Seahawks,

239
00:10:12,468 --> 00:10:14,948
Speaker 7: whoever shows up and plays the best brand of football

240
00:10:15,188 --> 00:10:18,148
Speaker 7: and plays mistake free football, They'll win the game.

241
00:10:18,388 --> 00:10:20,108
Speaker 2: All Right, We're gonna move on on GMTP because, like

242
00:10:20,108 --> 00:10:21,388
Speaker 2: I said, we got a lot of guests coming by

243
00:10:21,388 --> 00:10:22,308
Speaker 2: by Isaac Rochelle.

244
00:10:22,468 --> 00:10:23,868
Speaker 4: If I ask you a.

245
00:10:23,908 --> 00:10:26,508
Speaker 2: Jersey growing up in Georgia that you may have had

246
00:10:26,548 --> 00:10:28,708
Speaker 2: as a child, what comes to mind, firsthand?

247
00:10:28,828 --> 00:10:31,748
Speaker 8: One and only Michael Vick. I mean there's a million

248
00:10:31,748 --> 00:10:32,428
Speaker 8: of them everywhere.

249
00:10:32,828 --> 00:10:34,308
Speaker 1: I literally go to sleep and I think of a

250
00:10:34,388 --> 00:10:36,068
Speaker 1: Michael vic Well, you don't have.

251
00:10:36,028 --> 00:10:36,308
Speaker 8: To do that.

252
00:10:36,348 --> 00:10:37,508
Speaker 2: You can be awake and you could be on the

253
00:10:37,508 --> 00:10:40,948
Speaker 2: show because he's coming on GMFB next. So many Super

254
00:10:40,948 --> 00:10:44,628
Speaker 2: Bowl sixty storylines to talk about, this is easily one

255
00:10:44,668 --> 00:10:46,308
Speaker 2: of the best highlight reels you can turn on and

256
00:10:46,348 --> 00:10:49,868
Speaker 2: just lose hours to the coach VIC experience is happening.

257
00:10:50,108 --> 00:10:52,028
Speaker 4: Fanti Isaac, we got him? What else?

260
00:10:57,548 --> 00:11:00,028
Speaker 7: I'm telling you a little story, maybe some building block

261
00:11:00,068 --> 00:11:02,428
Speaker 7: says to the success that the Seahawks have had.

262
00:11:02,508 --> 00:11:07,028

268
00:11:32,628 --> 00:11:36,028
Speaker 14: you're going to the episode Falcons win in overtime a

269
00:11:36,068 --> 00:11:41,308
Speaker 14: forty six yard touchdown run and he finishes with one

270
00:11:41,388 --> 00:11:43,748
Speaker 14: hundred and seventy three yards rushing.

271
00:11:44,068 --> 00:11:46,388
Speaker 4: Oh that was the legend himself.

272
00:11:46,548 --> 00:11:49,908
Speaker 2: Michael Vick and Mike, we've had you on the show before.

273
00:11:50,028 --> 00:11:52,028
Speaker 2: I'm so happy to talk to you as a four

274
00:11:52,068 --> 00:11:53,268
Speaker 2: time Pro Bowl quarterback.

275
00:11:53,748 --> 00:11:54,708
Speaker 4: But that highlight in.

276
00:11:54,708 --> 00:11:57,788
Speaker 2: The Metrodome, I gotta say, as a native daughter of Minnesota,

277
00:11:57,948 --> 00:11:58,508
Speaker 2: not one.

278
00:11:58,308 --> 00:12:00,668
Speaker 4: Of my favorites. Not one of my favorites.

279
00:12:01,988 --> 00:12:05,108
Speaker 2: Did you know an advance I understand you're gonna run

280
00:12:05,108 --> 00:12:05,748
Speaker 2: out the hallway.

281
00:12:05,788 --> 00:12:06,828
Speaker 4: You're like, no, I'm out.

282
00:12:06,868 --> 00:12:08,788
Speaker 2: That was it Bucks seventy three on the ground, and

283
00:12:08,828 --> 00:12:09,948
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna say peace.

284
00:12:11,308 --> 00:12:12,068
Speaker 10: You know what, It was.

285
00:12:12,108 --> 00:12:14,748
Speaker 15: Kind of disrespectful that I didn't shake hands with my

286
00:12:14,828 --> 00:12:18,508
Speaker 15: guys after, you know, after that game ran. You know,

287
00:12:18,628 --> 00:12:22,108
Speaker 15: it's always somebody's during that had that walk off touchdown

288
00:12:22,148 --> 00:12:23,508
Speaker 15: run where you just can run into.

289
00:12:23,428 --> 00:12:24,708
Speaker 10: The locker room game over.

290
00:12:25,468 --> 00:12:28,908
Speaker 15: You know, that was that was my signature two thousand

291
00:12:28,948 --> 00:12:29,508
Speaker 15: and two play.

292
00:12:29,748 --> 00:12:31,228
Speaker 10: That was the play of the season for me. I'll

293
00:12:31,228 --> 00:12:32,548
Speaker 10: tell you that that's.

294
00:12:32,388 --> 00:12:34,508
Speaker 2: Really cool for you to put it into context like that,

295
00:12:34,708 --> 00:12:37,228
Speaker 2: and it's an incredible one and I don't hate it

296
00:12:37,228 --> 00:12:39,388
Speaker 2: at all. We got to ask you, though, Mike. First

297
00:12:39,428 --> 00:12:40,748
Speaker 2: of all, it's great to see you. We hope you're

298
00:12:40,748 --> 00:12:43,908
Speaker 2: doing well. You played during a time where the Patriots

299
00:12:43,948 --> 00:12:46,748
Speaker 2: were an absolute staple in the postseason under Bill Belichick,

300
00:12:46,788 --> 00:12:48,988
Speaker 2: of course, and with Tom Brady at the quarterback position.

301
00:12:49,268 --> 00:12:50,788
Speaker 4: Now they return to the Super Bowl.

302
00:12:51,068 --> 00:12:54,228
Speaker 2: How do you feel about seeing this brand have a

303
00:12:54,268 --> 00:12:57,508
Speaker 2: resurgence once again, but this time under Mike Rable.

304
00:12:58,268 --> 00:13:01,348
Speaker 15: Yeah, I think it's great, especially under Mike Graver, everything

305
00:13:01,428 --> 00:13:04,068
Speaker 15: that he's been able to do within a short time,

306
00:13:04,468 --> 00:13:07,588
Speaker 15: and you know, for him to be able to you know,

307
00:13:07,748 --> 00:13:11,508
Speaker 15: captivate that team, build that defense, get Drake made to

308
00:13:11,508 --> 00:13:14,148
Speaker 15: pay play at a high level. You know, you're looking

309
00:13:14,148 --> 00:13:15,908
Speaker 15: at one of the one of the top coaches in

310
00:13:15,948 --> 00:13:17,868
Speaker 15: the game right now. That's not an easy thing to do.

311
00:13:17,908 --> 00:13:20,468
Speaker 15: It's really not an easy defeat. So you know, all

312
00:13:20,508 --> 00:13:23,028
Speaker 15: across the board, this is a great overall team and

313
00:13:23,388 --> 00:13:26,068
Speaker 15: you know they did everything week after week to put

314
00:13:26,068 --> 00:13:27,228
Speaker 15: themselves in this position.

315
00:13:27,588 --> 00:13:28,948
Speaker 3: Mike get so good to see your brother.

316
00:13:29,028 --> 00:13:30,788
Speaker 7: The last time I saw Yo, I was actually playing

317
00:13:30,828 --> 00:13:32,388
Speaker 7: against you and it was an honor of mine to

318
00:13:32,548 --> 00:13:35,108
Speaker 7: actually grace the field with you. He was actually Pittsburgh

319
00:13:35,148 --> 00:13:37,708
Speaker 7: Steeler at that time. And when you played the San

320
00:13:37,788 --> 00:13:38,748
Speaker 7: Diego Chargers.

321
00:13:38,748 --> 00:13:48,148
Speaker 10: Oh that looks so weird.

322
00:13:48,268 --> 00:13:49,708
Speaker 3: What a legend, What a legend.

323
00:13:49,748 --> 00:13:51,348
Speaker 7: But I got to ask you, bro, let's talk about

324
00:13:51,348 --> 00:13:54,468
Speaker 7: Sam Donald a little bit. It's well documented his his journey.

325
00:13:54,748 --> 00:13:56,868
Speaker 7: You know, with all the teams that he's been been with.

326
00:13:57,308 --> 00:14:00,388
Speaker 3: He will lead the Seattle Seahawks in Super Bowl sixty as.

327
00:14:00,228 --> 00:14:03,068
Speaker 7: A measure of perseverance, what would it mean for Donald

328
00:14:03,388 --> 00:14:07,388
Speaker 7: the quarterback to come in and hoist up a Lombardi Trophy.

329
00:14:07,388 --> 00:14:08,748
Speaker 10: What's gonna mean everything to him?

330
00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:12,428
Speaker 15: And you know, I think that the fact that he's

331
00:14:12,468 --> 00:14:14,828
Speaker 15: had to go through so much, and you know, Sam

332
00:14:14,908 --> 00:14:17,868
Speaker 15: Donald is the epitome of don't give up on quarterbacks

333
00:14:17,908 --> 00:14:18,308
Speaker 15: too soon.

334
00:14:18,428 --> 00:14:20,868
Speaker 10: These first round picks, these guys.

335
00:14:20,668 --> 00:14:23,188
Speaker 15: Who you know, you have them for three years and

336
00:14:23,228 --> 00:14:26,308
Speaker 15: then all of a sudden, you know, you force him

337
00:14:26,308 --> 00:14:28,748
Speaker 15: into exile and then you never hear from him again.

338
00:14:28,868 --> 00:14:29,708
Speaker 10: Sam just kept that.

339
00:14:29,788 --> 00:14:32,628
Speaker 15: And I think, you know, the biggest, the coolest thing

340
00:14:32,708 --> 00:14:35,148
Speaker 15: for Sam was going into San Francisco. I think once

341
00:14:35,188 --> 00:14:37,988
Speaker 15: he went to San Francisco, was there for you with Shanahan,

342
00:14:38,508 --> 00:14:40,148
Speaker 15: you know he I think he learned a lot, was

343
00:14:40,148 --> 00:14:44,348
Speaker 15: able to go to Minnesota and put everything on display.

344
00:14:44,428 --> 00:14:47,668
Speaker 15: And then you know, this year finding this and finding

345
00:14:47,668 --> 00:14:50,028
Speaker 15: a home in Seattle where he had a defense, had

346
00:14:50,028 --> 00:14:53,228
Speaker 15: players around him, JSA and those guys, they only gonna

347
00:14:53,268 --> 00:14:55,508
Speaker 15: make you better. So you know, this guy on the

348
00:14:55,548 --> 00:14:58,068
Speaker 15: mission and I expect them. I expect them to win

349
00:14:58,068 --> 00:15:00,668
Speaker 15: the game. And that's gonna be a story beginning for him.

350
00:15:00,908 --> 00:15:01,108
Speaker 10: Mike.

351
00:15:01,308 --> 00:15:04,308
Speaker 1: I first off, even saying Mike as somebody who grew

352
00:15:04,548 --> 00:15:06,228
Speaker 1: up and you were like my idol.

353
00:15:06,348 --> 00:15:08,108
Speaker 8: I feel like I should be saying mister vic. I

354
00:15:08,148 --> 00:15:12,628
Speaker 8: don't even know. I'm like, I feel like I say Mike,

355
00:15:13,468 --> 00:15:14,028
Speaker 8: mister Mike.

356
00:15:14,108 --> 00:15:16,388
Speaker 10: Whatever. Appreciate Now.

357
00:15:16,588 --> 00:15:18,828
Speaker 1: I could take this entire time that I have to

358
00:15:18,868 --> 00:15:19,268
Speaker 1: just talk.

359
00:15:19,108 --> 00:15:21,268
Speaker 8: About how iconicck you were in Atlanta when I was

360
00:15:21,308 --> 00:15:21,668
Speaker 8: growing up.

361
00:15:21,708 --> 00:15:24,148
Speaker 1: I'm thirty years old, so we're talking about your era

362
00:15:24,308 --> 00:15:27,228
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. Was like my that's like my sports era.

363
00:15:27,308 --> 00:15:30,508
Speaker 1: It's like Kobe, Michael Vick, like all the greats. So

364
00:15:30,708 --> 00:15:33,068
Speaker 1: just thank you for everything that you've done. You're also

365
00:15:33,148 --> 00:15:35,588
Speaker 1: a football expert still, you coach, you do it all.

366
00:15:35,988 --> 00:15:38,908
Speaker 1: Looking at the Falcons, we got a new coach, Kevin Stefanski,

367
00:15:38,908 --> 00:15:39,548
Speaker 1: who I played for.

368
00:15:39,708 --> 00:15:40,228
Speaker 8: I love him.

369
00:15:40,388 --> 00:15:43,828
Speaker 1: We've got Michael Pennix Junior, just as a guy who

370
00:15:43,868 --> 00:15:46,548
Speaker 1: knows good quarterback play. Can you just talk about that connection,

371
00:15:46,708 --> 00:15:48,548
Speaker 1: what that's going to mean for the Falcons and what

372
00:15:48,588 --> 00:15:49,508
Speaker 1: they could be next year.

373
00:15:50,028 --> 00:15:50,228
Speaker 10: Yeah.

374
00:15:50,228 --> 00:15:52,348
Speaker 15: I think it's really good for Michael Pennings to get

375
00:15:52,388 --> 00:15:56,028
Speaker 15: somebody like Kevin Stefanski offensive mind, somebody who's going to

376
00:15:56,068 --> 00:15:58,668
Speaker 15: pour into him teach him how to play the quarterback

377
00:15:58,708 --> 00:15:59,348
Speaker 15: position on.

378
00:15:59,308 --> 00:16:00,188
Speaker 10: A daily basis.

379
00:16:00,228 --> 00:16:03,388
Speaker 15: And Michael has all the tools to be successful with

380
00:16:03,468 --> 00:16:05,668
Speaker 15: that guy right there, John, you know, and then the

381
00:16:05,708 --> 00:16:08,708
Speaker 15: receivers that he has Drake London, and I think kle

382
00:16:08,828 --> 00:16:09,628
Speaker 15: Fitz is still there.

383
00:16:09,628 --> 00:16:10,188
Speaker 10: He should be.

384
00:16:10,348 --> 00:16:12,588
Speaker 15: I mean, it's enough weapons on the offensive side of

385
00:16:12,588 --> 00:16:15,348
Speaker 15: the ball to get some production. You know, just got

386
00:16:15,348 --> 00:16:18,348
Speaker 15: to build on the offensive line like anywhere else. And

387
00:16:18,468 --> 00:16:20,068
Speaker 15: I think once they do that, you know you got

388
00:16:20,068 --> 00:16:22,988
Speaker 15: a team that's going to be very competitive and you know,

389
00:16:23,068 --> 00:16:26,148
Speaker 15: ultimate of the defenses win championships to win games rather

390
00:16:26,908 --> 00:16:29,388
Speaker 15: but the offense is going to be a lot better

391
00:16:30,028 --> 00:16:31,748
Speaker 15: than it was in the last couple of years. And

392
00:16:31,748 --> 00:16:34,668
Speaker 15: they still got Kirk Cousins too, so you know, they

393
00:16:34,708 --> 00:16:37,468
Speaker 15: got a safety blanket with with him. And I think

394
00:16:37,508 --> 00:16:39,748
Speaker 15: this team will definitely make a run at it in

395
00:16:39,748 --> 00:16:40,788
Speaker 15: the next couple of years.

396
00:16:40,948 --> 00:16:43,588
Speaker 2: In the South is right for the taking within the NFC,

397
00:16:43,668 --> 00:16:46,228
Speaker 2: so they should do that exactly. So I want to

398
00:16:46,308 --> 00:16:48,428
Speaker 2: pull up the picture again because you brought it up.

399
00:16:48,468 --> 00:16:50,468
Speaker 2: How crazy it is this you wear in the number

400
00:16:50,468 --> 00:16:53,628
Speaker 2: two in the Steelers jersey with Mantai chasing you down.

401
00:16:53,628 --> 00:16:55,828
Speaker 2: You got rid of the ball obviously in time, but

402
00:16:55,948 --> 00:16:58,148
Speaker 2: this is the last time you played, which is under

403
00:16:58,148 --> 00:17:01,428
Speaker 2: Mike Tomlin for the Pittsburgh Steelers. We're ping pong and

404
00:17:01,468 --> 00:17:03,108
Speaker 2: all around the league right now. But it's because you're

405
00:17:03,148 --> 00:17:05,188
Speaker 2: such an expert, and I'm sure you maybe have a

406
00:17:05,188 --> 00:17:06,868
Speaker 2: different take on Tomlin now that.

407
00:17:06,908 --> 00:17:08,388
Speaker 4: You are yourself a head coach.

408
00:17:08,708 --> 00:17:11,348
Speaker 2: What did you feel when you heard Mike Tomlin was

409
00:17:11,388 --> 00:17:13,708
Speaker 2: stepping away from the Pittsburgh Steelers.

410
00:17:14,188 --> 00:17:17,508
Speaker 15: It's always sad and said, and when a guy like

411
00:17:17,548 --> 00:17:20,748
Speaker 15: coach Tomlin, you know, after such a long tenure, you know,

412
00:17:20,868 --> 00:17:23,508
Speaker 15: has to, you know, step away from something that I

413
00:17:23,548 --> 00:17:26,828
Speaker 15: know he loves tremendously. But instantly in that same breath,

414
00:17:26,948 --> 00:17:28,868
Speaker 15: I was like, look, man, coach tom and.

415
00:17:29,028 --> 00:17:31,028
Speaker 10: Land somewhere tomorrow if he wanted to.

416
00:17:31,228 --> 00:17:32,948
Speaker 15: You know, I think every player who's come through that

417
00:17:32,988 --> 00:17:35,708
Speaker 15: Pittsburgh Still's organization who's played for Mike got a.

418
00:17:35,588 --> 00:17:38,428
Speaker 10: Lot of respect for him, a ton of appreciation.

419
00:17:38,868 --> 00:17:41,588
Speaker 15: I know when I played for him, I showed there

420
00:17:41,588 --> 00:17:44,548
Speaker 15: everything that he said every day, appreciated every team meeting

421
00:17:44,548 --> 00:17:45,708
Speaker 15: and every coaching point.

422
00:17:45,468 --> 00:17:46,348
Speaker 10: That he ever gave me.

423
00:17:46,388 --> 00:17:48,388
Speaker 15: And not just for me, I can I can say

424
00:17:48,388 --> 00:17:50,668
Speaker 15: that for a lot of guys who played for him.

425
00:17:50,668 --> 00:17:53,028
Speaker 15: And so I did send him a text and tell him,

426
00:17:53,068 --> 00:17:55,788
Speaker 15: like you know, congratulations on a great run, you know,

427
00:17:56,028 --> 00:17:58,028
Speaker 15: and take some time to think about, you know, what

428
00:17:58,108 --> 00:18:00,068
Speaker 15: the next move is going to be. And maybe this

429
00:18:00,148 --> 00:18:02,188
Speaker 15: is the opportunity for him to step away from it

430
00:18:02,388 --> 00:18:04,268
Speaker 15: and then come back to it at some point because

431
00:18:04,388 --> 00:18:06,348
Speaker 15: he is fairly young. And one thing about Mike t

432
00:18:06,788 --> 00:18:08,988
Speaker 15: he's gonna bring that defense, he's gonna bring that energy,

433
00:18:09,028 --> 00:18:10,948
Speaker 15: and you're gonna get ahead of a coach. So I

434
00:18:10,988 --> 00:18:12,348
Speaker 15: think it's on his terms now.

435
00:18:12,908 --> 00:18:15,148
Speaker 7: Something that's also on your terms, Mike, as you are

436
00:18:15,228 --> 00:18:17,188
Speaker 7: to a head coach. You see your hoodie, you know

437

Speaker 15: Michael did Coach Vick has never coached a collegiate football

444
00:18:34,988 --> 00:18:35,468
Speaker 15: game ever.

445
00:18:35,588 --> 00:18:38,428
Speaker 10: I'm a rookie. You down here trying to get up here.

446
00:18:39,308 --> 00:18:42,108
Speaker 15: HBCU have amazing culture, amazing support.

447
00:18:43,108 --> 00:18:44,868
Speaker 4: Are you still happy you made this decision?

448
00:18:44,988 --> 00:18:47,428
Speaker 15: Yeah, that's what I signed though for living in two

449
00:18:47,428 --> 00:18:49,588
Speaker 15: different cities has been hard for my wife.

450
00:18:49,388 --> 00:18:49,868
Speaker 10: My family.

451
00:18:50,028 --> 00:18:51,988
Speaker 4: Little Mike told his dad the other day, I feel

452
00:18:51,988 --> 00:18:54,028
Speaker 4: like you're not my dad anymore. That hurt my heart.

453
00:18:54,388 --> 00:18:56,948
Speaker 15: This could be an opportunity to turn a program around.

454
00:18:58,468 --> 00:19:00,068
Speaker 11: Does it seem like it's a little more of a

455
00:19:00,268 --> 00:19:01,988
Speaker 11: battle at the q be positioning.

456
00:19:05,428 --> 00:19:09,268
Speaker 6: You can't tell the story of the quarterback position without

457
00:19:09,308 --> 00:19:10,628
Speaker 6: talking about Michael.

458
00:19:10,348 --> 00:19:12,908
Speaker 10: Back unlike anybody else who came before.

459
00:19:12,668 --> 00:19:16,028
Speaker 15: Him, coming to an HBCU, especially here in Norfolk State,

460
00:19:16,148 --> 00:19:19,188
Speaker 15: speaks volumes about his character. I would have never thought

461
00:19:19,228 --> 00:19:20,868
Speaker 15: in a million years, and I would be sitting in

462
00:19:20,868 --> 00:19:21,508
Speaker 15: the seat.

463
00:19:22,868 --> 00:19:23,668
Speaker 8: Waiting to sit up.

464
00:19:23,828 --> 00:19:25,308
Speaker 16: BJ just oldly got nut.

465
00:19:25,348 --> 00:19:27,228
Speaker 3: Why ain't doing that all right?

466
00:19:28,228 --> 00:19:31,148
Speaker 10: Unbelievable? And I feel the pressure in the task at hand.

467
00:19:31,268 --> 00:19:33,028
Speaker 16: I tell you what you was getting ready to run into.

468
00:19:34,388 --> 00:19:36,668
Speaker 4: The place that I would rather see my man.

469
00:19:36,748 --> 00:19:39,708
Speaker 10: Being a coaching You look at it and you say,

470
00:19:39,988 --> 00:19:42,748
Speaker 10: why here? Why now? The question is why not here?

471
00:19:42,788 --> 00:19:43,548
Speaker 10: And why not that?

472
00:19:44,388 --> 00:19:45,948

Speaker 2: I'm fantastic, Mostly because I get to learn more about this.

598
00:25:11,948 --> 00:25:13,668
Speaker 2: I actually got to host this show that we're going

599
00:25:13,708 --> 00:25:17,108
Speaker 2: to see on NBC tomorrow, So the education continues in

600
00:25:17,148 --> 00:25:20,068
Speaker 2: this global sport of flag football. But you understand it

601
00:25:20,148 --> 00:25:23,148
Speaker 2: more than most. It has absolutely caught fire. Why do

602
00:25:23,188 --> 00:25:25,908
Speaker 2: you think this is such an important movement and so

603
00:25:26,228 --> 00:25:29,108
Speaker 2: special for girls and women in their development, not only

604
00:25:29,108 --> 00:25:30,668
Speaker 2: as athletes but just as people.

605
00:25:31,028 --> 00:25:34,708
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean, I truly think one. Flag football is

606
00:25:34,788 --> 00:25:38,268
Speaker 12: just so fun to watch. People enjoy it. It's exciting,

607
00:25:38,388 --> 00:25:42,028
Speaker 12: it's fast, it's diverse, and you know, everyone just you

608
00:25:42,068 --> 00:25:45,268
Speaker 12: see celebrations and you don't you know, it's just so

609
00:25:45,348 --> 00:25:47,588
Speaker 12: much fun to watch. And I think another reason is

610
00:25:47,908 --> 00:25:52,428
Speaker 12: the international side has been growing tremendously, and I think

611
00:25:52,468 --> 00:25:55,468
Speaker 12: the NFL and other brands like Under Armour, they've done

612
00:25:55,588 --> 00:25:59,948
Speaker 12: such great jobs at sharing the athletes stories and you'll

613
00:25:59,948 --> 00:26:01,788
Speaker 12: see it in this documentary and you'll see it in

614
00:26:01,868 --> 00:26:05,348
Speaker 12: the show that you know you you really genuinely fall

615
00:26:05,428 --> 00:26:07,788
Speaker 12: in love with the athletes there, and when you fall

616
00:26:07,788 --> 00:26:10,348
Speaker 12: in love with the athletes, people want to watch.

617
00:26:10,388 --> 00:26:12,188
Speaker 16: And so I think that's also a.

618
00:26:12,228 --> 00:26:15,308
Speaker 12: Huge reason on why people are starting to watch, and

619
00:26:15,348 --> 00:26:18,188
Speaker 12: people are so excited to because they've truly fallen in

620
00:26:18,188 --> 00:26:20,148
Speaker 12: love with us and fallen in love with our stories.

621
00:26:20,308 --> 00:26:23,068
Speaker 2: Well, and it's easier now to follow your stories because

622
00:26:23,068 --> 00:26:25,428
Speaker 2: there's so many opportunities to play. You play at Kaiser

623
00:26:25,548 --> 00:26:28,188
Speaker 2: University and you're on the US national team.

624
00:26:28,588 --> 00:26:29,548
Speaker 4: Can you expand on.

625
00:26:29,468 --> 00:26:32,308
Speaker 2: What other opportunities and pathways there are for young players

626
00:26:32,308 --> 00:26:33,588
Speaker 2: and entering the game today?

627
00:26:33,908 --> 00:26:34,628
Speaker 16: Oh my gosh.

628
00:26:34,708 --> 00:26:37,948
Speaker 12: I mean, never in a million years would I have

629
00:26:38,068 --> 00:26:41,348
Speaker 12: think that what I've thought, that these opportunities are truly

630
00:26:41,388 --> 00:26:45,068
Speaker 12: here for flag players. I always knew what flag meant

631
00:26:45,108 --> 00:26:49,428
Speaker 12: to me, and now seeing years later that these brands

632
00:26:49,508 --> 00:26:52,868
Speaker 12: and that all of these leagues are truly sharing that

633
00:26:53,068 --> 00:26:55,188
Speaker 12: flag means so much to them as well, it is

634
00:26:55,348 --> 00:26:58,388
Speaker 12: everything to me. I mean, you have the Olympics on

635
00:26:58,428 --> 00:27:02,508
Speaker 12: the rise, you have college scholarships being available not only

636
00:27:02,588 --> 00:27:06,268
Speaker 12: at the NAI level now but powerhouse D one schools.

637
00:27:06,348 --> 00:27:08,108
Speaker 16: I mean, it's absolutely insane.

638
00:27:08,908 --> 00:27:11,668
Speaker 12: There's just there's so many more, and it's just i

639
00:27:11,708 --> 00:27:14,548
Speaker 12: mean the NFL Pro League, Oh gosh, there's so many

640
00:27:14,588 --> 00:27:17,628
Speaker 12: that's coming to mind, and it's just a couple years ago.

641
00:27:17,868 --> 00:27:20,588
Speaker 12: It was so difficult to try and find a league

642
00:27:20,708 --> 00:27:23,588
Speaker 12: to be able to play in, and especially an all

643
00:27:23,588 --> 00:27:26,108
Speaker 12: girls league, and now it's just you turn a corner

644
00:27:26,108 --> 00:27:26,948
Speaker 12: and they're all here.

645
00:27:27,108 --> 00:27:28,468
Speaker 4: So it's it's been amazing.

646
00:27:28,788 --> 00:27:30,388
Speaker 2: Actually, I want to put you on a spot real quick.

647
00:27:30,428 --> 00:27:32,788
Speaker 2: Do you have a favorite NFL player right now? And

648
00:27:32,868 --> 00:27:34,548
Speaker 2: there's a reason why I ask you that question.

649
00:27:35,268 --> 00:27:37,548
Speaker 12: I would probably say my favorite player right now is

650
00:27:37,548 --> 00:27:38,628
Speaker 12: Will Anderson Junior.

651
00:27:39,668 --> 00:27:41,028
Speaker 4: Excellent. I love that.

652
00:27:41,228 --> 00:27:43,868
Speaker 2: So you have something in common with little Anderson Junior

653
00:27:43,948 --> 00:27:46,868
Speaker 2: or you could which is could you both be Olympians

654
00:27:46,948 --> 00:27:49,588
Speaker 2: at LA twenty eight. There is an opportunity not only

655
00:27:49,588 --> 00:27:51,508
Speaker 2: for you as an athlete, but for some of these

656
00:27:51,588 --> 00:27:54,628
Speaker 2: NFL guys to be to represent their countries. How much

657
00:27:54,628 --> 00:27:57,108
Speaker 2: of the Olympics at LA twenty eight in buildings like

658
00:27:57,148 --> 00:27:59,708
Speaker 2: the one across the street from us driving you as

659
00:27:59,708 --> 00:28:01,228
Speaker 2: an athlete, Oh my gosh.

660
00:28:01,308 --> 00:28:03,148
Speaker 12: I mean it's every single time I go to sleep,

661
00:28:03,188 --> 00:28:06,708
Speaker 12: I think about potentially playing in the Olympics one day.

662
00:28:06,748 --> 00:28:09,748
Speaker 12: But you know, I'm also learning that with all of

663
00:28:09,748 --> 00:28:12,948
Speaker 12: these opportunities and how fast the sport is growing, I

664
00:28:13,028 --> 00:28:15,028
Speaker 12: truly do want to take one step at a time

665
00:28:15,868 --> 00:28:18,708
Speaker 12: and truly live in the moment. And so I'm really

666
00:28:18,748 --> 00:28:20,708
Speaker 12: excited to be able to share that I'm going to

667
00:28:20,708 --> 00:28:25,268
Speaker 12: be playing globally at the NFL YouTube Celebrity Flag Football Game,

668
00:28:25,308 --> 00:28:28,428
Speaker 12: representing flag football, and so that's a step that I'm

669
00:28:28,468 --> 00:28:29,228
Speaker 12: going to be able to take.

670
00:28:29,268 --> 00:28:30,348
Speaker 4: And then when you.

671
00:28:30,268 --> 00:28:32,228
Speaker 12: Think about the Olympics, you have to think about the

672
00:28:32,228 --> 00:28:36,108
Speaker 12: IPAF World Championships because you know, you have to secure

673
00:28:36,148 --> 00:28:38,628
Speaker 12: your spot and you know, Team USA, we have to

674
00:28:38,628 --> 00:28:42,308
Speaker 12: secure our spot at the IPAF World Championships.

675
00:28:41,708 --> 00:28:44,588
Speaker 4: In Germany, and so you know, I truly do.

676
00:28:44,508 --> 00:28:46,548
Speaker 12: Think about the Olympics all the time, and that is

677
00:28:46,948 --> 00:28:49,948
Speaker 12: why I'm traveling so much and why I'm trying to

678
00:28:49,988 --> 00:28:53,748
Speaker 12: showcase to these younger generations that you can play in

679
00:28:53,788 --> 00:28:56,268
Speaker 12: the Olympics and you you can have a future in

680
00:28:56,268 --> 00:28:58,988
Speaker 12: flag football. And so I am trying to show that

681
00:28:59,028 --> 00:29:02,268
Speaker 12: at every opportunity that I can. But at the same time,

682
00:29:02,828 --> 00:29:04,348
Speaker 12: you know, feel in the grass.

683
00:29:04,108 --> 00:29:04,628
Speaker 16: A little bit.

684
00:29:05,148 --> 00:29:08,908
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're everywhere, Ashley, but rightfully so, because you're trying

685
00:29:08,948 --> 00:29:10,308
Speaker 2: to put that flag on your shoulders.

686
00:29:10,308 --> 00:29:11,388
Speaker 4: In a couple of summers from now.

687
00:29:11,588 --> 00:29:13,788
Speaker 2: For an inspiring look at flag's global impact on the

688
00:29:13,828 --> 00:29:15,828
Speaker 2: road to LA twenty eight, don't miss global rides of

699
00:29:52,148 --> 00:29:54,068
Speaker 2: Two time NFL Coach of the Year and a Super

700
00:29:54,068 --> 00:29:57,108
Speaker 2: Bowl champion, Ron Rivera joining GMFF.

701
00:29:57,388 --> 00:30:01,668
Speaker 4: What's up morning, You're morning, You're our coach.

702
00:30:01,748 --> 00:30:04,148
Speaker 2: Here are gm Here are everything when it comes onto

703
00:30:04,188 --> 00:30:06,908
Speaker 2: this stuff. Coach, the Arizona Cardinals are still one of

704
00:30:06,948 --> 00:30:07,748
Speaker 2: those teams that.

705
00:30:07,828 --> 00:30:10,868
Speaker 4: Need a head coach. You were recently brought in for

706
00:30:10,988 --> 00:30:12,348
Speaker 4: an interview. How did that go?

707
00:30:13,348 --> 00:30:14,188
Speaker 16: I thought it went well.

708
00:30:14,268 --> 00:30:16,508
Speaker 9: You know, it was an opportunity to talk a little

709
00:30:16,508 --> 00:30:19,348
Speaker 9: football with them. It was I tell you that they're

710
00:30:19,388 --> 00:30:21,428
Speaker 9: being very thorough. They're asking a lot of great questions

711
00:30:21,468 --> 00:30:23,188
Speaker 9: and that's probably the biggest thing I think everybody has

712
00:30:23,228 --> 00:30:25,668
Speaker 9: to understand is, you know, when you go through these processes,

713
00:30:26,148 --> 00:30:28,428
Speaker 9: you know as you're looking for who you want, you've

714
00:30:28,428 --> 00:30:29,508
Speaker 9: got to be very thorough.

715
00:30:29,548 --> 00:30:31,028
Speaker 16: You've got to get all the questions answered.

716
00:30:31,028 --> 00:30:33,628
Speaker 9: And that's probably the biggest thing that I've noticed, you know,

717
00:30:33,708 --> 00:30:37,228
Speaker 9: throughout the last few years as I've watched this process,

718
00:30:37,748 --> 00:30:40,068
Speaker 9: how thorough a lot of teams are and how quick

719
00:30:40,148 --> 00:30:42,188
Speaker 9: other teams react. And it's one of those things that

720
00:30:42,188 --> 00:30:44,468
Speaker 9: if they react quickly, you've always you always think, well,

721
00:30:44,468 --> 00:30:46,108
Speaker 9: they always knew who they wanted to go get from

722
00:30:46,148 --> 00:30:47,108
Speaker 9: the very very beginning.

723
00:30:47,508 --> 00:30:50,228
Speaker 7: Well, coach, you just mentioned how quick some teams react.

724
00:30:50,268 --> 00:30:52,348
Speaker 7: You have a long history with the former Buffalo Bills

725
00:30:52,388 --> 00:30:54,948
Speaker 7: head coach Sean McDermott. Have you had time to speak

726
00:30:54,988 --> 00:30:56,628
Speaker 7: to him since you was let go and also what

727
00:30:56,668 --> 00:30:59,028
Speaker 7: are your thoughts on what's next for him?

728
00:30:59,668 --> 00:31:01,268
Speaker 9: Well, yeah, you know, I didn't have an opportunity to

729
00:31:01,268 --> 00:31:03,188
Speaker 9: talk with Sean. Sean, Sean, I think is one of

730
00:31:03,188 --> 00:31:05,148
Speaker 9: the really, really good young coach which is as well,

731
00:31:05,508 --> 00:31:07,588
Speaker 9: and you know, Buffalo did what they felt they needed

732
00:31:07,628 --> 00:31:09,308
Speaker 9: to do. But you know, a guy like Sean who's

733
00:31:09,308 --> 00:31:11,068
Speaker 9: had the success he's had and built the team the

734
00:31:11,108 --> 00:31:14,988
Speaker 9: way he did, I'd be surprised if it doesn't come

735
00:31:15,148 --> 00:31:17,948
Speaker 9: a full circle and he get another opportunity, you know,

736
00:31:17,988 --> 00:31:20,588
Speaker 9: the way it looks right now, and is Sean will

737
00:31:20,588 --> 00:31:23,468
Speaker 9: probably have the year off, you know, as Mike Tomlin

738
00:31:23,508 --> 00:31:24,588
Speaker 9: is in the same situation.

739
00:31:24,708 --> 00:31:25,748
Speaker 16: And it's one of those.

740
00:31:25,588 --> 00:31:27,468
Speaker 9: Things that when you do this for as long as

741
00:31:27,468 --> 00:31:29,748
Speaker 9: you've done it, you know, I went nine straight years

742
00:31:29,748 --> 00:31:32,268
Speaker 9: and then took a job right away. In retrospect now,

743
00:31:32,308 --> 00:31:33,868
Speaker 9: I always wondering it would have been better off if

744
00:31:33,908 --> 00:31:37,148
Speaker 9: I taken the time off. And it's just one of

745
00:31:37,148 --> 00:31:40,228
Speaker 9: those things that sometimes as you start answering those questions

746
00:31:40,228 --> 00:31:42,068
Speaker 9: in your own mind about, Wow, I wonder what would

747
00:31:42,068 --> 00:31:43,548
Speaker 9: happen if I had taken a break?

748
00:31:43,828 --> 00:31:44,348
Speaker 16: How would that?

749
00:31:44,468 --> 00:31:44,628
Speaker 10: You know?

750
00:31:44,708 --> 00:31:45,748
Speaker 16: Got me fired up again.

751
00:31:46,468 --> 00:31:49,228
Speaker 1: That's so interesting, coach that you bring up Mike Tomlin

752
00:31:49,388 --> 00:31:50,868
Speaker 1: and you know you think he's going to take a

753
00:31:50,948 --> 00:31:53,708
Speaker 1: year off. Let's just talk about Mike Mike Tomlin for

754
00:31:53,708 --> 00:31:56,708
Speaker 1: a sec. You have a long history with him. What

755
00:31:56,788 --> 00:31:58,908
Speaker 1: did you think when he decided to step down.

756
00:32:00,148 --> 00:32:02,948
Speaker 16: That he might want to take a break. I really did.

757
00:32:02,988 --> 00:32:05,908
Speaker 9: I thought, you know, he's stepping away from being very,

758
00:32:05,988 --> 00:32:07,708
Speaker 9: very successful and having the.

759
00:32:07,748 --> 00:32:08,388
Speaker 16: Career he's had.

760
00:32:08,468 --> 00:32:11,228
Speaker 9: You know, no losing seasons, I think is an amazing thing.

761
00:32:11,268 --> 00:32:13,148
Speaker 9: And you know Mike is one of those guys that

762
00:32:13,268 --> 00:32:15,508
Speaker 9: you know, as bright as he is, as inteligy is,

763
00:32:15,548 --> 00:32:17,748
Speaker 9: as well spoken as he is. I wouldn't be surprised

764
00:32:17,788 --> 00:32:20,108
Speaker 9: if he ended up on television next season, right, I mean,

765
00:32:20,228 --> 00:32:21,988
Speaker 9: Mike's got some options, I'll.

766
00:32:21,868 --> 00:32:22,548
Speaker 16: Tell you that much.

767
00:32:23,028 --> 00:32:24,068
Speaker 4: I bet, I bet you do.

768
00:32:24,388 --> 00:32:27,748
Speaker 2: Listen, there is a complicated situation that unfolded recently ron

769
00:32:27,828 --> 00:32:30,108
Speaker 2: with the Giants. They hired John Harbaugh, and a lot

770
00:32:30,148 --> 00:32:32,988
Speaker 2: of people thought that Jackson dart would have todm. Munkin

771
00:32:33,028 --> 00:32:35,748
Speaker 2: as his offensive coordinator. Monkin then goes to the Browns,

772
00:32:35,748 --> 00:32:38,668
Speaker 2: which over complicates the web. What do you think Harbaugh's

773
00:32:38,668 --> 00:32:41,068
Speaker 2: impact will be on the Giants and how can he

774
00:32:41,148 --> 00:32:43,228
Speaker 2: usher in this new era with what will become a

775
00:32:43,268 --> 00:32:45,228
Speaker 2: second year quarterback in Jackson Dart.

776
00:32:45,588 --> 00:32:47,748
Speaker 16: Well, I think I think John can make a huge impact.

777
00:32:47,828 --> 00:32:48,388
Speaker 16: I really do.

778
00:32:48,628 --> 00:32:51,748
Speaker 9: The biggest thing about Coach Harbaugh's is he has a plan,

779
00:32:51,828 --> 00:32:53,588
Speaker 9: He has an idea of how he wants to do things,

780
00:32:53,748 --> 00:32:56,868
Speaker 9: and with him, he knows how important that offensive coordinator is.

781
00:32:56,908 --> 00:32:59,868
Speaker 9: So he's interviewing people. I think that he's really looking

782
00:32:59,908 --> 00:33:01,988
Speaker 9: forward to bringing in the kind of guy that's going

783
00:33:02,028 --> 00:33:04,748
Speaker 9: to make the impact for Jackson. I mean, this young

784
00:33:04,788 --> 00:33:06,468
Speaker 9: men's very dynamic.

785
00:33:06,708 --> 00:33:07,748
Speaker 16: Understands football.

786
00:33:08,028 --> 00:33:10,508
Speaker 9: And the one thing that coach Harbaugh said and is

787
00:33:10,508 --> 00:33:13,308
Speaker 9: fresh Conference that I thought really reflects who Jackson dart

788
00:33:13,348 --> 00:33:13,588
Speaker 9: is is.

789
00:33:13,988 --> 00:33:15,628
Speaker 16: I want guys that love football.

790
00:33:16,188 --> 00:33:18,148
Speaker 9: That's I think is one of the really key things

791
00:33:18,148 --> 00:33:20,748
Speaker 9: about finding the types of players that really fit into

792
00:33:20,828 --> 00:33:22,708
Speaker 9: your system and style of football.

793
00:33:23,108 --> 00:33:23,348
Speaker 3: Coach.

794
00:33:23,388 --> 00:33:25,708
Speaker 7: The Raiders are still searching for a replacement for coach

795
00:33:25,788 --> 00:33:28,908
Speaker 7: Pete Carroll. From your perspective, what makes that job in

796
00:33:28,988 --> 00:33:30,188
Speaker 7: Las Vegas sol appealing?

797
00:33:30,948 --> 00:33:33,428
Speaker 9: Well, you have the first pick. I think they're also

798
00:33:33,468 --> 00:33:36,868
Speaker 9: positioned very well to go into free agency because of

799
00:33:36,908 --> 00:33:39,428
Speaker 9: the cap moves that they've made in the you know,

800
00:33:39,868 --> 00:33:40,428
Speaker 9: last season.

801
00:33:40,468 --> 00:33:42,428
Speaker 16: I think they'll be probably be making a couple.

802
00:33:42,188 --> 00:33:44,988
Speaker 9: More to give themselves an opportunity to really step into

803
00:33:44,988 --> 00:33:46,748
Speaker 9: free agency and build that team.

804
00:33:47,268 --> 00:33:49,268
Speaker 16: You know, I know right now everybody's talking about Fernando

805
00:33:49,348 --> 00:33:50,508
Speaker 16: Mendos a being d pick.

806
00:33:50,908 --> 00:33:52,708
Speaker 9: And that's the thing about this that they've got to

807
00:33:52,748 --> 00:33:55,388
Speaker 9: be very thorough and understand what they're looking for because

808
00:33:55,908 --> 00:33:59,028
Speaker 9: that's the most valuable position, and that's quarterback. This league

809
00:33:59,108 --> 00:34:01,908
Speaker 9: is a quarterback driven league. You've got to protect that quarterback.

810
00:34:01,948 --> 00:34:05,668
Speaker 9: Put playmakers around them and have a complementary defense. I

811
00:34:05,708 --> 00:34:09,708
Speaker 9: think that's what makes the Raiders very appealing right now ron.

812
00:34:09,828 --> 00:34:12,308
Speaker 4: The NFL world, I'm going to say this.

813
00:34:12,348 --> 00:34:15,188
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say this, kindly freaked out this week over

814
00:34:15,628 --> 00:34:18,228
Speaker 2: a report that Bill Belichick would not be entering the

815
00:34:18,228 --> 00:34:21,028
Speaker 2: Hall of Fame at his first pass. Have you landed

816
00:34:21,068 --> 00:34:25,348
Speaker 2: on a thought, a theory, an opinion on this circumstance,

817
00:34:25,908 --> 00:34:29,508
Speaker 2: or maybe just an overarching take you want to have

818
00:34:29,548 --> 00:34:32,468
Speaker 2: about Bill Belichick as a whole in his coaching tenure

819
00:34:32,508 --> 00:34:33,108
Speaker 2: in the NFL.

820
00:34:33,948 --> 00:34:36,628
Speaker 9: You know, I think it's a reflection of of how

821
00:34:37,348 --> 00:34:40,308
Speaker 9: more stringent the the the the Hall of Fame wants

822
00:34:40,348 --> 00:34:44,308
Speaker 9: to be in terms of letting people in. I honestly,

823
00:34:44,748 --> 00:34:46,388
Speaker 9: for for what he's done in the years he's been

824
00:34:46,428 --> 00:34:48,548
Speaker 9: in the league, I mean, that's guy who should.

825
00:34:48,268 --> 00:34:51,308
Speaker 16: Have been a first ballot probably and unfortunately he's not.

826
00:34:51,948 --> 00:34:53,908
Speaker 9: But you know, he'll be in, he really will, and

827
00:34:54,308 --> 00:34:56,908
Speaker 9: and I've heard the explanations the reasonings behind it, and

828
00:34:56,948 --> 00:34:58,988
Speaker 9: to me, it just reflects that they're just trying to

829
00:34:59,028 --> 00:35:01,548
Speaker 9: be a lot more stringent on who they let in.

830
00:35:01,708 --> 00:35:03,988
Speaker 9: I mean, they're making it tougher to get into the

831
00:35:04,028 --> 00:35:06,468
Speaker 9: Hall of fame for guys that have been passed up

832
00:35:06,748 --> 00:35:10,828
Speaker 9: initially or for those contributors or coaches. So I just

833
00:35:10,868 --> 00:35:13,788
Speaker 9: think it's you know, they tighten the rules up and

834
00:35:13,908 --> 00:35:15,588
Speaker 9: that's really kind of gets what it's all about.

835
00:35:16,068 --> 00:35:17,588
Speaker 8: Yeah, it was crazy. It goes roun.

836
00:35:17,708 --> 00:35:21,588
Speaker 1: I mean, everything that he's done now getting in I

837
00:35:21,588 --> 00:35:24,308
Speaker 1: think the writing's kind of on the wall with that one. Okay,

838
00:35:24,548 --> 00:35:27,548
Speaker 1: it's time. We got a super Bowl coming up. Who

839
00:35:27,628 --> 00:35:29,268
Speaker 1: is your pick? It's going to be a great game,

840
00:35:29,308 --> 00:35:30,788
Speaker 1: we all know that. But who do you think is

841
00:35:30,828 --> 00:35:31,668
Speaker 1: going to come out on top?

842
00:35:32,468 --> 00:35:32,708
Speaker 10: Wow?

843
00:35:33,028 --> 00:35:34,708
Speaker 9: You know, this game to me is going to come

844
00:35:34,748 --> 00:35:38,228
Speaker 9: down to playmakers and team speed. I think right now

845
00:35:38,428 --> 00:35:41,748
Speaker 9: you're seeing you're seeing that Seattle's making a lot of

846
00:35:41,748 --> 00:35:44,068
Speaker 9: plays right now. Sam Donald has done a tremendous job

847
00:35:44,068 --> 00:35:48,028
Speaker 9: in those two playoff games this this past season so far.

848
00:35:48,268 --> 00:35:50,108
Speaker 9: He's got the biggest one coming up in his career.

849
00:35:50,508 --> 00:35:52,588
Speaker 9: And I love the team speed, I really do. I

850
00:35:52,588 --> 00:35:56,668
Speaker 9: think Seattle's played very very fast offense defense. I think

851
00:35:56,708 --> 00:35:59,028
Speaker 9: the one thing that's really interesting about their defense is,

852
00:35:59,308 --> 00:36:04,228
Speaker 9: you know, they're fourth in quarterback pressures and sacks and

853
00:36:04,388 --> 00:36:07,028
Speaker 9: the only rush for for the most part in comparison

854
00:36:07,108 --> 00:36:10,508
Speaker 9: to what New England does in terms of bringing pressure

855
00:36:10,508 --> 00:36:14,188
Speaker 9: and blitzing to try and impact the passion game. So

856
00:36:14,548 --> 00:36:16,188
Speaker 9: I'm leaning towards Seattle right now.

857
00:36:17,268 --> 00:36:21,028
Speaker 2: Ron, whoever negotiated you to get that office view that

858
00:36:21,108 --> 00:36:24,388
Speaker 2: you have at gm ACAL Football, I need that guy

859
00:36:24,428 --> 00:36:27,268
Speaker 2: on my team as well. Ron Rivera, everybody, we appreciate

860
00:36:27,268 --> 00:36:28,988
Speaker 2: your time and everything you give to us and the

861
00:36:29,028 --> 00:36:31,948
Speaker 2: game of football. And hey, enjoy hosting the Super Bowl

862
00:36:31,988 --> 00:36:33,268
Speaker 2: next week just in your backyard.

863
00:36:33,708 --> 00:36:35,148
Speaker 16: Oh yeah, we're going to be busy. We got a

864
00:36:35,148 --> 00:36:36,788
Speaker 16: lot of activities going on campus.

865
00:36:36,908 --> 00:36:39,868
Speaker 2: I bet, I bet all right, Ron Rivera, everybody.

866
00:36:39,428 --> 00:36:42,068
Speaker 11: The Super Bowls appreciate you, appreciate you see it.

867
00:36:43,908 --> 00:36:47,148
Speaker 7: Constructing a team, I assume is a lot like playing jangle.

868
00:36:47,468 --> 00:36:54,068
Speaker 7: It's strategically removing pieces, well try not to remove and

869
00:36:54,148 --> 00:36:56,668
Speaker 7: add pieces that will make this thing come crumbling down.

870
00:36:57,548 --> 00:37:00,788
Speaker 7: For the Seattle Seahawks, their tower came crumbling down after

871
00:37:00,908 --> 00:37:03,988
Speaker 7: Super Bowl forty nine. Now, as the block's laid there,

872
00:37:05,828 --> 00:37:09,108
Speaker 7: their general manager John Schneider realized that he wasn't dealing

873
00:37:09,108 --> 00:37:12,188
Speaker 7: with rectangular pieces of wood, but he's dealing with human

874
00:37:12,228 --> 00:37:13,588
Speaker 7: beings with a lot of emotions.

875
00:37:15,508 --> 00:37:20,108
Speaker 5: It was a last minute heartbreaker, and there was a

876
00:37:20,188 --> 00:37:25,708
Speaker 5: lot of pain around that loss. I'd love to talk

877
00:37:25,708 --> 00:37:28,668
Speaker 5: to you about this. Yeah, like there's a lot of pain.

878
00:37:29,988 --> 00:37:31,828
Speaker 5: I don't think we taught them how to deal with failure,

879
00:37:32,388 --> 00:37:35,748
Speaker 5: how to deal with loss, and so there was a

880
00:37:35,948 --> 00:37:38,468
Speaker 5: deep pain that lasted I think three years.

881
00:37:38,748 --> 00:37:40,948
Speaker 11: Yeah, I think you're I think I think you're right

882
00:37:40,948 --> 00:37:41,628
Speaker 11: with the assessment.

883
00:37:41,628 --> 00:37:42,348
Speaker 10: I think it was. It was.

884
00:37:44,548 --> 00:37:47,788
Speaker 11: It's kind of just you know, putting in some kind

885
00:37:47,788 --> 00:37:49,828
Speaker 11: of covering some gaps and kind of just getting through

886
00:37:49,868 --> 00:37:50,308
Speaker 11: a little bit.

887
00:37:50,348 --> 00:37:52,068
Speaker 10: That's right. Yeah, a lot of drama.

888
00:37:52,428 --> 00:37:54,428
Speaker 7: Now, when the blocks hit the table, you could do

889
00:37:54,468 --> 00:37:55,348
Speaker 7: one of two things.

890
00:37:55,388 --> 00:37:56,308
Speaker 3: One you could.

891
00:37:56,188 --> 00:37:58,588
Speaker 7: Pack it in a box and give up, or you

892
00:37:58,628 --> 00:38:00,988
Speaker 7: could start all over again. For John Snyder, not only

893
00:38:01,028 --> 00:38:03,508
Speaker 7: did he start all over again, but he started all

894
00:38:03,548 --> 00:38:06,068
Speaker 7: over with a new set of blocks. But this time

895
00:38:06,548 --> 00:38:08,628
Speaker 7: he was going to build this thing a little different.

896
00:38:10,468 --> 00:38:13,828
Speaker 11: You know, when you're you're paying, you know certain areas

897
00:38:14,428 --> 00:38:16,908
Speaker 11: you have to be willing to. Okay, well, if we

898
00:38:16,988 --> 00:38:19,668
Speaker 11: draft this guy, hey, we better right and b we

899
00:38:19,748 --> 00:38:21,468
Speaker 11: better be willing to pay him. We better be willing

900
00:38:21,468 --> 00:38:24,388
Speaker 11: to develop him. And you know we we you know,

901
00:38:25,708 --> 00:38:27,508
Speaker 11: I'm right there. We all got off kilter a little bit.

902
00:38:27,548 --> 00:38:29,428
Speaker 11: You know, I didn't make I made a couple of

903
00:38:29,468 --> 00:38:33,428
Speaker 11: decisions in the draft that was all about more about, well,

904
00:38:33,468 --> 00:38:35,868
Speaker 11: if this guy has a contract coming up next year

905
00:38:36,228 --> 00:38:38,468
Speaker 11: and he leaves, and that guy may leave, then we

906
00:38:38,468 --> 00:38:40,588
Speaker 11: should probably move this player up on the board.

907
00:38:41,148 --> 00:38:44,748
Speaker 5: You know, it wasn't it was the best talent. Yeah,

908
00:38:44,828 --> 00:38:48,468
Speaker 5: thinking cleverly two steps ahead that which might be a gap,

909
00:38:48,668 --> 00:38:51,668
Speaker 5: which is the opposite of your approach.

910
00:38:53,828 --> 00:38:56,588
Speaker 7: For the past few years, John Snyder has been surgical

911
00:38:56,628 --> 00:39:00,268
Speaker 7: in his team's construction, drafting guys like Jackson Smith and

912
00:39:00,308 --> 00:39:03,268
Speaker 7: Jigbo despite DK Metcalfin's high luck at both coming off

913
00:39:03,268 --> 00:39:06,708
Speaker 7: of one thousand yard receive seasons, trading DK metcalf away

914
00:39:07,028 --> 00:39:09,948
Speaker 7: and using some of that compensation to trade up to

915
00:39:10,028 --> 00:39:13,908
Speaker 7: draft guys like Nick emon Mori, signing Sam Darnold, signing

916
00:39:13,908 --> 00:39:17,908
Speaker 7: Cooper Cup, signing the Marcus Lawrence, and then making trades

917
00:39:17,948 --> 00:39:20,388
Speaker 7: mid season for guys like Rashid Shaheed, who has been

918
00:39:20,428 --> 00:39:23,748
Speaker 7: a major addition not only to the special teams but

919
00:39:23,788 --> 00:39:25,548
Speaker 7: also to the offensive side of the ball. But what's

920
00:39:25,548 --> 00:39:28,828
Speaker 7: the difference with this tower compared to the last? You know,

921
00:39:28,868 --> 00:39:31,628
Speaker 7: when you're playing Jenga and you're kind of touching all

922
00:39:31,628 --> 00:39:33,468
Speaker 7: the pieces and trying to make sure which one.

923
00:39:33,308 --> 00:39:35,028
Speaker 10: Is the loose piece.

924
00:39:35,508 --> 00:39:38,668
Speaker 7: But John Snyder this time has his fingerprints all over

925
00:39:38,708 --> 00:39:41,628
Speaker 7: this franchise, and he's making sure that greatness is being

926
00:39:41,668 --> 00:39:44,308
Speaker 7: attained not only by the players, but even the people

927
00:39:44,308 --> 00:39:45,268
Speaker 7: that manicure the feld.

928
00:39:47,108 --> 00:39:48,788
Speaker 11: We're trying to do it better than everybody else, like

929
00:39:48,828 --> 00:39:50,068
Speaker 11: every single day, and.

930
00:39:50,028 --> 00:39:52,788
Speaker 5: We're like, so that phrase matters, We're going to try

931
00:39:52,788 --> 00:39:54,828
Speaker 5: to do it better than it's ever been done before.

932
00:39:55,428 --> 00:39:58,228
Speaker 5: And so you operationalize that. I know, I lived it

933
00:39:58,268 --> 00:40:01,188
Speaker 5: with you, like that was a daily pursuit. And it

934
00:40:01,228 --> 00:40:04,628
Speaker 5: comes in the smallest little ways, like how great can

935
00:40:04,668 --> 00:40:07,388
Speaker 5: we be at custodian service? How great can we be

936
00:40:07,588 --> 00:40:10,548
Speaker 5: at lawn care? I don't know.

937
00:40:10,788 --> 00:40:13,348
Speaker 11: Right, we tell everybody in the whole operation.

938
00:40:13,588 --> 00:40:15,108
Speaker 16: The entire team, what do you what do you?

939
00:40:15,268 --> 00:40:17,508
Speaker 11: Yeah, Like when you get in the car in the morning,

940
