1 00:00:05,640 --> 00:00:09,600 Speaker 1: Welcome into the lounge presented by DraftKings. We are joined 2 00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:13,360 Speaker 1: today by safety Chuck Clark. Thanks for joining us, and uh, 3 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:17,000 Speaker 1: we'll start here. So the Bengals last year, they talked 4 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,920 Speaker 1: a lot of smack after those two wins they had 5 00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: against us this year Joe Burrow two hundred and seventeen 6 00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,440 Speaker 1: passing yards and most importantly adults, how good did that 7 00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: one feel? That one felt great to get. Uh, Like 8 00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,400 Speaker 1: I said, it's just a lot of smack talk going 9 00:00:34,440 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 1: into it. So I mean, just like what did and 10 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: play a player the sound game on defense, you know, 11 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,200 Speaker 1: and pretty much played life out for Really I felt good. Yeah, 12 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: I'm kind of curious. And I posted this on Twitter 13 00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:50,040 Speaker 1: yesterday and got a real mixed opinion from fans, Like 14 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,240 Speaker 1: that game kind of had the feeling of some old 15 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,920 Speaker 1: Ravens Steelers games, right, Like it was just kind of 16 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,000 Speaker 1: the slug fest back and forth. There's like some a 17 00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,040 Speaker 1: little hostile to the in there, their smack talk involved. 18 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: Like it just had that feel to me. And now 19 00:01:04,360 --> 00:01:06,080 Speaker 1: we've had a lot of good games with Bengals over 20 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 1: the years too, right, so it's been a rivalry for 21 00:01:09,080 --> 00:01:11,320 Speaker 1: a long time, but like, does it feel different? Yet 22 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: Burrow and Lamar you have these young, good quarterbacks who 23 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: are gonna be there for a while. Like, does it 24 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,720 Speaker 1: does it feel a little bit different, like it's a 25 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 1: heightened rivalry? Now, yeah, it definitely felt different, especially with 26 00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,600 Speaker 1: all that that happened last year, you know, and just 27 00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,920 Speaker 1: like this the podcast talk, you know that that video 28 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 1: gonna stay around forever, and we're gonna see those videos. 29 00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying when they tag us a song, 30 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 1: we see those you know what I'm saying this out there, 31 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: So you gotta stand on it at the end of 32 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: the day. And so I think that that definitely builds 33 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,760 Speaker 1: the you know, the at tension that comes with it, 34 00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:41,400 Speaker 1: you know, and then Sunday night football, so that's that's 35 00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 1: the high end aspect too. So for sure, how have 36 00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,320 Speaker 1: you kind of stick on that for a second, Like, 37 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:50,440 Speaker 1: how have you seen the rivalries change over time? Because 38 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:52,880 Speaker 1: I think it's easy to say like Raven Seelers it's 39 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 1: the best, but then like Titans kind of you know, 40 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 1: entered that mix. Going back to when I first started 41 00:01:57,960 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 1: hearing Raven's Patriots, you know, was was as good as 42 00:02:00,800 --> 00:02:04,279 Speaker 1: any I think, and now I think Raymond's Bengals has 43 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: elevated a little bit. What do you make of that? Uh? 44 00:02:07,760 --> 00:02:09,519 Speaker 1: I think as players come and go, you know what 45 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: I'm saying, and different players experienced the situation like you know, 46 00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,960 Speaker 1: we I was part of the team that was here 47 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: when they came and knocked us out in the playoffs 48 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,520 Speaker 1: at home, you know what I'm saying. So it's like, Okay, 49 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 1: the players are on the team, you remember that, you know, 50 00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 1: But then another guy that might have not been on 51 00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 1: the team, you know what I'm saying, that that at 52 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 1: tension that robbery might not carry over. You're here through story, 53 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,200 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So for me, like back 54 00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 1: in the past early two thousand's, it's stories that you 55 00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,800 Speaker 1: heard of, But that tension might not be there with 56 00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,920 Speaker 1: that team, you know what I'm saying. So it is 57 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:39,560 Speaker 1: with other teams when you actually get the experience and 58 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: feel that pain, you know what I'm saying. So then 59 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 1: when you come back to that team, then it's like, 60 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:44,919 Speaker 1: all right, he's there. So that's probably why I feel 61 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 1: like that, you know, like the kind of the shift 62 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,639 Speaker 1: and change a little bit. Yeah, makes so it wasn't 63 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 1: just a good game against the Bengals for the past defense, 64 00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: I mean the week before, you know, Josh Allen held 65 00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:57,280 Speaker 1: him to two yards. That's pretty good against the Bills. 66 00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: And Josh Allen. What do you think has kind of 67 00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 1: turned things around for the secondary the past couple of weeks. 68 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 1: I think us just getting back out there having time together. 69 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:08,640 Speaker 1: You know, we ain't been out there altogether on the 70 00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:11,440 Speaker 1: field at once, it was over a year almost, so 71 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: just getting time and getting games and reps. You know, 72 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: and practice is one thing, but the game reps is 73 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 1: so much different than practice. I think just getting that 74 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,679 Speaker 1: time out there together and you know, just bonding and 75 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: other and just getting stuff better for it. How important 76 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: is that? Like, I think it's a a lot of 77 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 1: times guys point to communication and familiarity and chemistry like 78 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,360 Speaker 1: those are all buzzwords that kind of get thrown around, 79 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: But it sounds to me like it is like you 80 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: need to have a feel for the guys that are 81 00:03:38,600 --> 00:03:43,000 Speaker 1: next to you in order to be successful. Yeah, definitely, Uh, 82 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 1: I mean not giving away too much. I mean it's 83 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:47,400 Speaker 1: been stuff for I might have messed up and then 84 00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: my teammate, like I know, he got my back or 85 00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: somewhere he might have messed up and I got his back, 86 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: and it's just one of those things like I know, 87 00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I can feel where you're 88 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,600 Speaker 1: at on the field, and you can feel where I'm at. 89 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:00,120 Speaker 1: So there's those type of things for sure. It's part 90 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: of that having your your kind of two stud corners 91 00:04:02,880 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: out there and Marlon and Marcus like that. I gotta 92 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 1: believe that's part of it, definitely. And like I said, 93 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,720 Speaker 1: it goes back to, you know, being in with both 94 00:04:09,720 --> 00:04:13,200 Speaker 1: of those guys to you know, stuff that happened back then, 95 00:04:13,320 --> 00:04:14,960 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, and you got away from 96 00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:16,440 Speaker 1: it for a little bit, but then it's coming back 97 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,039 Speaker 1: and it's all right. That like that connection that bond there, 98 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 1: you know. Right, it seems like Marcus getting back on 99 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: the field and back to like a hundred percent now 100 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,600 Speaker 1: in the past couple of weeks makes a big difference. 101 00:04:26,600 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 1: I mean, just the juice that everybody felt from there. 102 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:34,400 Speaker 1: It's great having Broad back out there for real, Like 103 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: I'm so happy that he out there, just bawling healthy 104 00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 1: and like that play that you're talking about, Like we've 105 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 1: seen the picture and I just like how you get 106 00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: his legs so straight, his other leg bent like that, 107 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,760 Speaker 1: But I mean I'm glad he's back out there for real. Yeah, 108 00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 1: I mean that's he's a dog. I mean, does his energy, 109 00:04:51,520 --> 00:04:53,680 Speaker 1: you feel like, really kind of rub off on the 110 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 1: rest of the secondary definitely. I mean he gets us going, 111 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,880 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, And you could just tell 112 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:01,359 Speaker 1: you could feel. But I mean it's everybody. You know, 113 00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 1: if it's something to be you're gonna let it be known, 114 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: you know what I mean, if you're not on your job, 115 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:07,040 Speaker 1: like all right, let's talk about it, you know what 116 00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:09,559 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So definitely you love his spirit, his energy. 117 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 1: When you're out there, what do you bring on the 118 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:13,919 Speaker 1: physical side and the mental aspect. It seems like you 119 00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: guys really had a kind of a jelling bonding moment 120 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:20,560 Speaker 1: even after that Dolphins game, right, I mean it was 121 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 1: reported there's a team a player's only meeting after that 122 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,320 Speaker 1: and kind of to work through that, right, I mean, 123 00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:27,440 Speaker 1: that was that was painful moment. How much do you 124 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: feel like that process and going through that can help 125 00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:34,040 Speaker 1: you in the long term. I think going through that 126 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:36,680 Speaker 1: it's good for us. Like at the time, it was 127 00:05:36,880 --> 00:05:38,400 Speaker 1: still it was early in the season. I mean, it's 128 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 1: still kind of early in the season two. But uh, 129 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,920 Speaker 1: I mean we're just able to go through going there 130 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 1: and sit down and watch it. Like we had a 131 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,800 Speaker 1: bad game, you know, and it wasn't the whole game either. 132 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 1: It was just a couple of things that happened here 133 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,159 Speaker 1: and there and just us not all being together, and 134 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:54,000 Speaker 1: it's like, all right, now you can see where we 135 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,800 Speaker 1: can learn and we can grow and you know, content, well, 136 00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,679 Speaker 1: we was down the road. That was something very small 137 00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 1: in the you know, a small pump in the road. Right. So, 138 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:06,360 Speaker 1: going into last week's game, Marlin talked about how the 139 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 1: cafeteria will humble you with the TVs that are on 140 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: there where they show things like you know, thirty second 141 00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: in the League and good Morning Football or whoever else 142 00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:16,880 Speaker 1: is talking about it. How much do you pay attention 143 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:20,920 Speaker 1: to those TVs in the cafeteria. I mean you're trying 144 00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 1: not to look at it, but I mean that's really 145 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 1: all that's only down there, for real. If they had 146 00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,719 Speaker 1: Martin playing a sun down there, I'd rather that for real. 147 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,920 Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean you see it, you'd be like, 148 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: hopefully when they get this show on the little commercials, 149 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,880 Speaker 1: you see the highlights, You're like, all right, I don't 150 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 1: know they're getting juke down, you know what I'm saying. 151 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: So yeah, but I mean you you definitely see it. 152 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:40,280 Speaker 1: But I mean at the end of the day, it's 153 00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:42,280 Speaker 1: like it's all right, whatever, onto the next you know 154 00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, It's out there, onto the next game, 155 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 1: trying to get better something else. You know, anybody ever 156 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 1: called for the remote? Many, where's the remote? Man? We 157 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: got No? No, I don't know a guy like that. 158 00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: I know that. You guys, you know you're this is 159 00:06:58,920 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: a talented secondary with a lot of veteran players who've 160 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: done a lot of good things in this league. And 161 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:08,479 Speaker 1: if you have when you have an early season, you know, 162 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 1: struggles like the Miami game, is there like a real 163 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: sense of pride, like, look, we all know we're better 164 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:16,760 Speaker 1: than that. Like this is a good group. This is 165 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:18,840 Speaker 1: a really good secondary. There's so much talent in the 166 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 1: secondary that you know it's better than that. Yeah, Like 167 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,640 Speaker 1: is that kind of a uniting moment? I guess to 168 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,200 Speaker 1: a certain degree that like, all right, we're better than this, 169 00:07:27,280 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: and now it's time for us to go show it. Yeah. 170 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 1: I mean, when you put all our names down on paper, 171 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 1: you're like, dang, we got that many dudes in this room. 172 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 1: And then sometimes when you see some of the stats 173 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 1: on paper, some of the things that happened are some 174 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: of the highlights. You know, as a like as a 175 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:44,080 Speaker 1: person yourself, you're like, dang, were way better than that, 176 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. Then there's a group we 177 00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: go out there and we were in the meeting room 178 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:49,040 Speaker 1: and we're talking about it, like we know, we're better 179 00:07:49,040 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 1: than that. You know what I'm saying. We probably the 180 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,480 Speaker 1: best DV group in the league. You know what I'm 181 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: saying on paper, pound for pound, you know what I'm saying. 182 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: So it definitely like sparked us and get us going 183 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 1: for sure, because we're like, yeah, we wait better than 184 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 1: it's right on table and not in some of the 185 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,880 Speaker 1: things that have happened. Right. So, you suffered a tough 186 00:08:04,920 --> 00:08:08,280 Speaker 1: blow on Sunday when Marcus Williams goes down and you know, 187 00:08:08,280 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: obviously he was playing at such a high level and 188 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: he's fun to watch, man, I'm sure it's fun to 189 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: be next to him. How tough is it to lose him? 190 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:16,960 Speaker 1: And at the same time, how ready do you think 191 00:08:17,040 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: Gino is? You know, along with Kyle Hamilton's to step 192 00:08:20,160 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 1: into that role. I think it's tough losing any part 193 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: on the defense, you know, So when you lose a 194 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,080 Speaker 1: guy like that in the back end, you know, like 195 00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: we just talked about everybody high level guys back there, 196 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 1: but when you lose somebody, it's tough, you know. But 197 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 1: I mean, I think the way we like practice, the 198 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:37,560 Speaker 1: way we study film, the way we attack it. You know, 199 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 1: it's like the next person you you expected to step 200 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: in and be like a starter. I mean, that same 201 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 1: situation kind of happened to me back in nineteen and 202 00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 1: it's like we're not slowing down, We're not stopping for 203 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,480 Speaker 1: you to catch up, you know what I'm saying. So 204 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 1: I'm excited for Gino and Kyle, you know what I'm saying, 205 00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:53,880 Speaker 1: for both of those guys to get going. You're ahead 206 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,560 Speaker 1: of me, You're one step. That was just just remind 207 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,920 Speaker 1: me Tony went down. You stepped up and obviously played 208 00:09:00,000 --> 00:09:02,080 Speaker 1: well and kind of grabbed Boo by its horns. Like 209 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: does that is that how you look at this opportunity 210 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: for Gail and guys? Definitely, Um, it's like you're the 211 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: next man up, and like I said, and nobody's slowing 212 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: down and nobody's stopping. It's like, all right, we know, 213 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 1: we know what you can do. We've seen you do 214 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: it in training camp, We've seen you doing at O 215 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:17,920 Speaker 1: T A S. I mean, we've seen him do it 216 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 1: in games before. And you know, it's just trying to 217 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,160 Speaker 1: go out there and prove it to everybody else, you know, 218 00:09:22,360 --> 00:09:24,360 Speaker 1: And I know how he probably personally feeling. He like 219 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: everybody telling me, all right, watch this. You know what 220 00:09:27,320 --> 00:09:29,079 Speaker 1: I'm saying, Watch watch what I'm about to do. So 221 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 1: and I just can't wait to see what happens for 222 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: him and his career before. Sorry, just just the backtrack 223 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,920 Speaker 1: a little bit. I'm curious because Harps said that Marcus 224 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:41,360 Speaker 1: dislocated his risks like earlier in the first half and 225 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:43,960 Speaker 1: kept playing with it, which is kind of mind boggling 226 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 1: to me. As a guy that's kind of soft. You 227 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 1: would have yo, I'm out, come out, come out. Did 228 00:09:54,720 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: he say anything to you guys on the sideline or like, 229 00:09:57,559 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 1: did you know he was playing? Like yeah, no, I knew. 230 00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: I mean, I mean it was happening on the first play, 231 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,079 Speaker 1: first play the game. I mean I saw him get 232 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:10,520 Speaker 1: up and like grab his handing and like most times, 233 00:10:10,520 --> 00:10:11,760 Speaker 1: you know, what I'm saying. You see a guy like 234 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, I'm saying, grab some of someone at the 235 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: hard hit or something like you alret you straight and 236 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: they kind of like hit you with a look. I'm good, 237 00:10:18,920 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 1: keep it moving, I think. But like I could see, 238 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 1: like I'm like, damn not he heard, you know what 239 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,400 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So he came to the sideline I could tell. So, 240 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean, that sucks. It's just a a situation for 241 00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:30,599 Speaker 1: It's kind of hard. Shout out to him for it 242 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 1: because he really kept playing like the whole first half 243 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:34,440 Speaker 1: of it. I think you got a couple of tackles 244 00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: in there too, and like you watch him on film, 245 00:10:36,040 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 1: like he wrapped the guy up and he fallen in 246 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:39,680 Speaker 1: like he's not trying to put his hand on the 247 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:45,040 Speaker 1: ground to brace himself for stuff. So going back to uh, 248 00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 1: like your story and stepping in to the starting line 249 00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: up after Jefferson went down, do you talk to like 250 00:10:50,840 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 1: Geno Stone about that? Does it need to be said? No, 251 00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,560 Speaker 1: I really ain't even you know what I'm saying, brought 252 00:10:56,559 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: that up to him. It was games last year when 253 00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,560 Speaker 1: Gino stepped in and like pretty much played like a 254 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: full game, I mean against the Chiefs last year he 255 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:06,520 Speaker 1: came in with somebody went down, and so, I mean 256 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 1: he's been in those big moments, you know what I'm saying. 257 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: And Steelers game he picked off exactly, That's what I'm saying. 258 00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 1: So he's been in those big moments, and it's just 259 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:15,439 Speaker 1: like at the time, you're not a starter, but you're 260 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:17,280 Speaker 1: sitting back on the side and you're like, you, I 261 00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:18,439 Speaker 1: know what I can do, you know what I'm saying. 262 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 1: So it's like I've been there before, I've been there 263 00:11:20,080 --> 00:11:21,840 Speaker 1: where he's at, and it's like, man, I know what 264 00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 1: I can do. Weights I get my opportunity, I'm gonna 265 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,680 Speaker 1: taking him a run with it. So like I know, 266 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:27,800 Speaker 1: I gotta say too much to him for he's gonna 267 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,959 Speaker 1: be locked in for sure. It kind of it's kind 268 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:32,679 Speaker 1: of funny too, how you too. You remind me your 269 00:11:32,679 --> 00:11:34,960 Speaker 1: background is kind of are similar, right, your sixth round 270 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,839 Speaker 1: pick out of a major program Virginia Tech. He's the 271 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 1: seventh round pick out of a major program at Iowa. 272 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 1: Kind of gotta wait a couple of years to kind 273 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:42,520 Speaker 1: of get your turn and then boom, you never know, 274 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 1: you know what what stands out to you about Gino 275 00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:50,200 Speaker 1: as a player. Uh, I said that he always round 276 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: the ball, and he just always he always stayed with it. 277 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 1: You know. I think his rookie year, I think he 278 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:56,959 Speaker 1: had ended up getting cut and he went down to 279 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,319 Speaker 1: the Texans, you know, and they brought him back. And 280 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:01,880 Speaker 1: just like those type of things, they could probably mess 281 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: with a person, you know what I'm saying, Like Dn 282 00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,079 Speaker 1: I got cut from the team they're drafted me. I mean, 283 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:06,960 Speaker 1: he just stuck with it and he's still being consistent, 284 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,199 Speaker 1: still balling, doing what you gotta do. He's still here, 285 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: he's still standing. Yeah, see your name for your film study. 286 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 1: That's that's a major part of your game. Can you 287 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 1: just talk about your weekly preparation for a game? Uh? 288 00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: My weekly prep for a game Monday, Monday.

Where does that mentality come from? And 334 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 1: how do you approach the job? I think honestly, uh, 335 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 1: where I went to college that you know between tag 336 00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:24,040 Speaker 1: is just that's probably like the mindset there is, like 337 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:26,040 Speaker 1: blue collar work. I think, you know what I'm saying, 338 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,960 Speaker 1: just stand with it every day, and uh, I think 339 00:14:28,960 --> 00:14:31,560 Speaker 1: that just kind of stay with me, you know, and 340 00:14:31,560 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 1: It's just always been me, you know, trying to do 341 00:14:33,800 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 1: what I gotta do, you know what I'm saying, and 342 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 1: let everything else fall in place. And you're you're kind of, 343 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,240 Speaker 1: you know, personality wise, like more of a chiller guy, 344 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 1: you know. So it's not Ray Lewis style, but like 345 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: you know, I imagine a lot of it's lead by example. 346 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,920 Speaker 1: But like, you know, have you ever thought like do 347 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: I do I need to meet more vocal is? Hey man? 348 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 1: Leading by example, That's just the way I'm going to 349 00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: do it, you know what I mean. Yeah, I always 350 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:59,560 Speaker 1: said that, like I'm more a leader by example, you know. 351 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: But on game day, Marcus always been messing with me 352 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:03,480 Speaker 1: and he'd be trying to throw me up there and 353 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:05,120 Speaker 1: made me talk. And I ain't got a problem with 354 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying On game day, I'm turned up. 355 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,840 Speaker 1: It's whatever. So I mean, definitely, you know, if it's 356 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 1: something that needs to be said, and I feel like 357 00:15:11,040 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: I got to be said, and I'm gonna say, you 358 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,000 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying to night, I ain't gonna shot 359 00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:15,680 Speaker 1: away from it. So I mean, I ain't got a 360 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: problem with it. But I ain't day in the day out, 361 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying all of that, No, you're 362 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:24,800 Speaker 1: gonna be in the huddle. Yeah, So it's always interesting. 363 00:15:24,840 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 1: I feel like in Baltimore more people pay attention to 364 00:15:27,960 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: the green dot conversation that I feel like other other 365 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: cities and other teams, it's likes, are obsessed with it 366 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:38,360 Speaker 1: around here, because like when I first got there and 367 00:15:38,520 --> 00:15:40,800 Speaker 1: when that happened, I was like, they like talking about 368 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:42,080 Speaker 1: it a lot, and you know what I'm saying. But 369 00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,600 Speaker 1: then I think about other teams, like dudes that I know, 370 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: like one of my my boys I played with the 371 00:15:46,560 --> 00:15:48,440 Speaker 1: Virginia take he played for the Raiders now and he 372 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: got it. And I've seen the other night on the 373 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:52,960 Speaker 1: when they played was it the Monday night game the 374 00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:55,440 Speaker 1: Raiders Cheese And I'm like, all right, he got the 375 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,200 Speaker 1: green dot. But I mean, I ain't here about that, 376 00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like, I feel like it's 377 00:15:59,080 --> 00:16:01,400 Speaker 1: it definitely is Mitch More, Yeah, it was. Is he 378 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: a linebacker or safety? Okay? I think part of what 379 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,240 Speaker 1: part of the reason I think that it's talked about 380 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: more here is that it's more often a linebacker that 381 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: wears it. Are there any other safeties that you know 382 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: in the league to wear it. And I've seen a 383 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:17,320 Speaker 1: couple of dvs like it started having Like I think 384 00:16:17,320 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: it might have been two guys last year. I want 385 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 1: to say, uh was his name, John Johnson for the Browns. 386 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:26,280 Speaker 1: I think jay Ron Curse had it done in Dallas. 387 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:28,320 Speaker 1: So I did see like two others and that was 388 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:30,080 Speaker 1: like the first time I've seen it last year. But 389 00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 1: just like the other day we've in practicing. JPP was like, yeah, 390 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,520 Speaker 1: I gotta find you after the play. He's like, because 391 00:16:36,560 --> 00:16:37,920 Speaker 1: this is the first time I've ever seen a DV 392 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: with it, And I was like, that's crazy. You really 393 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:43,880 Speaker 1: don't see it for interesting And and was that like 394 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: when when you like that you kept it this year? 395 00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 1: Was that like significant to you? Like that You're like, 396 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: I want to keep it? Like is it? I guess 397 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 1: what I'm saying is like, is wearing the green dots 398 00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 1: something that you care about? I don't know. I think 399 00:16:56,520 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 1: I care about it like I care about it from 400 00:16:59,240 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: the point of like it helped me get ahead of 401 00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: the play. You know what I'm saying. And I can 402 00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: keep saying it to myself and reminded myself so like 403 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:07,760 Speaker 1: I'll hear it, they'll say it boom, but I tear 404 00:17:07,760 --> 00:17:10,720 Speaker 1: everybody boom, you know, and then like I'm still saying 405 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: it in my head to myself. So I'm all right, 406 00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: but I know what this is on this play, you know. 407 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,000 Speaker 1: But it is a little different sometimes when like when 408 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 1: I like it was back in training campot somebody else 409 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: had it and they say it you know what I'm saying, 410 00:17:21,320 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 1: and I'm like, all right, I heard him say at 411 00:17:22,840 --> 00:17:26,120 Speaker 1: one time, I'll go do it. Hey, what you say? 412 00:17:26,160 --> 00:17:27,639 Speaker 1: And so like that. But that's how it beat to 413 00:17:27,680 --> 00:17:30,240 Speaker 1: me too, though. I'd be out there and I say 414 00:17:30,400 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 1: and whatnot and then do it was like, what you say? Interesting? Man? 415 00:17:33,520 --> 00:17:35,320 Speaker 1: I said, you know what I'm saying. I'm like, man, 416 00:17:35,359 --> 00:17:36,720 Speaker 1: here the first time, you know what I'm saying. But 417 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: then I was like when the role was flipped, I 418 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: was like, okay, I'll get it Honestand and that's actually 419 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,520 Speaker 1: probably helpful a little bit you kind of see like 420 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:44,479 Speaker 1: how you know how it goes for the other players. Definitely, 421 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:47,640 Speaker 1: I like that we started this line of question by 422 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 1: kind of making fun of ourselves for asking that question. 423 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: I'm actually curiously, I've actually got agreed. You're falling into 424 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: the green dot track. The green dot and you just 425 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,520 Speaker 1: follow down that rabbit hole and you never know where 426 00:17:59,520 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: it's gonna be. So just talking about your mentorship. Obviously, 427 00:18:03,359 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 1: you know Kyle Hamilton's comes in, we have a rookie 428 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:08,280 Speaker 1: first round pick. You know, there's kind of the expectation 429 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 1: of you know that the veterans will will mentor him. 430 00:18:11,080 --> 00:18:13,359 Speaker 1: What's that process been like for you? I think it 431 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: goes back to how he's just talking about a minute ago, 432 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: like what type of leader are you? You You know what 433 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:20,200 Speaker 1: I'm saying, vocal or by example? And I mean it's 434 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: definitely times when we talk talking you're like asking meself 435 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:24,679 Speaker 1: about the game. It's been We've been talking about some 436 00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:26,280 Speaker 1: stuff about all the field life stuff, you know what 437 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 1: I'm saying, and so when when we chop it up 438 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,040 Speaker 1: and then but I feel like, like I said, I 439 00:18:30,119 --> 00:18:31,879 Speaker 1: just feel like I'm more of like by example, you 440 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:33,840 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like whatever you're gonna pick up 441 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,080 Speaker 1: and gravitate too, I think that's what you're gonna do, 442 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,600 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. But like we it's definitely 443 00:18:38,600 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 1: been those times and those moments for that you know 444 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:42,920 Speaker 1: what I'm saying on the field and all the field 445 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,920 Speaker 1: stuff for sure. Right, I've said this a couple of times, 446 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: and now that we got you, you can confirm or 447 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: tell me I'm an idiot. Usually I get the ladder. 448 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:56,720 Speaker 1: I feel like safety has to be like behind quarterback, 449 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:59,840 Speaker 1: let's say, the hardest position for a rookie to come 450 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 1: in and play immediately, just because there's so much thinking 451 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: that happens like and it has to happen really fast. 452 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:10,800 Speaker 1: A lot of diagnosis, there's a lot of like just 453 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:16,600 Speaker 1: route combination awareness, all that recognition. Do you agree with that? Unbiased? 454 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,119 Speaker 1: I know, like everybody thinks their position is like I 455 00:19:20,160 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 1: mean from the men from the mental standpoint, yeah, you 456 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:24,359 Speaker 1: know what I mean other stuff physical standpoint. You know, 457 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 1: you can go play corner. You might got the best 458 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: way I receiving the game. What I'm saying, so from 459 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: the mental standpoint, yeah, because uh, you say, you might 460 00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: mess up and say one wrong thing, and you got 461 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:36,720 Speaker 1: somebody over here playing this and somebody over here playing that, 462 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,400 Speaker 1: so and and naturally to safety position is you pull 463 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: it to be a leader. You know what I'm saying, 464 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 1: That middle linebacker, you pulled it to be a leader 465 00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 1: of defense because you have to talk and you have 466 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 1: to say stuff. So you mess up with one thing 467 00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,880 Speaker 1: and then we're on different pages on the different sides 468 00:19:50,920 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: of the field. You know. So yeah, I think so right? 469 00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 1: How how much of you enjoyed kind of you know, 470 00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,960 Speaker 1: your role has continued to evolve under Mike and stuff, 471 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: and you end up playing you play a lot of 472 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,840 Speaker 1: time like linebacker. You know, how do you kind of 473 00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:08,240 Speaker 1: like that adjustment? It's cool. Uh. The way I look 474 00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:10,040 Speaker 1: at is, I just think I'm a football player. You know, 475 00:20:10,359 --> 00:20:12,200 Speaker 1: you put me wherever, and I'm gonna make it happen. 476 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do what I gotta do. So and that's 477 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,440 Speaker 1: just how I always been. Like, you know, high school 478 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 1: play wherever. Kylie just played corner, play nickel, play safety. 479 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:22,000 Speaker 1: Then I got to the NFL kind of did the 480 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:24,119 Speaker 1: same thing. So I just feel like, I mean, it 481 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 1: don't phase me, It don't really bother me. Uh. It 482 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,120 Speaker 1: depends on the you know, what's going on that week. 483 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying. It's definitely different. But I 484 00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: just think I'm a ball player and wherever I'm me at, 485 00:20:33,440 --> 00:20:34,959 Speaker 1: I'm gonna get it. That's what I noticed the only 486 00:20:35,040 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 1: day for the press box. I think I said it 487 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: to you. I don't remember what hit it was, but 488 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: you just came up and just put a smack on somebody. 489 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: And I was like, that's Chuck Man, just comes up 490 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 1: and staple people Like it just seems like you know that, 491 00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:51,080 Speaker 1: you know whatever. It's some guys getting known as like 492 00:20:51,119 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: this ferocious hitter, but you just you just are a 493 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:56,919 Speaker 1: very good tackler. To be consistent, Yeah, I mean, you 494 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,880 Speaker 1: gotta crush your body, you know that, as I used 495 00:20:59,880 --> 00:21:03,200 Speaker 1: to for her. I've seen some dudes, you know, they 496 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 1: hit too hard, they hurt, they missed theirselfs up, you 497 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:07,760 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So it's definitely those times where 498 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: you can't, you know what I'm saying, smack people for sure, 499 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:12,480 Speaker 1: But I think just being consistent getting them on the ground, 500 00:21:12,520 --> 00:21:13,920 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, get up to the next 501 00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:17,440 Speaker 1: player tackles the tackle. You know. So this week you're 502 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:19,240 Speaker 1: going up to New York, You're facing the Giants, and 503 00:21:19,280 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 1: you talk about tackling, You'll be task to tackling se 504 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,800 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley, who has made life difficult for defensive players. 505 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: UH this year. What are your thoughts about going up 506 00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:33,239 Speaker 1: against that offense and particularly him? Uh? I think if 507 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:35,479 Speaker 1: you say, for particularly him, last time we played them, 508 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: we didn't get to play against him, you know what 509 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying. So I mean this would be good for us, 510 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:40,840 Speaker 1: you know, to go against a guy like that, you 511 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying, Like everything that he brings to 512 00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 1: the table. You know, he could change the game at 513 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:46,600 Speaker 1: any moment. You know, I'm saying, any time you touched 514 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 1: the ball. And so, uh, we look forward to this 515 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 1: challenge though, you know I mean this offense. I mean, 516 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: they're down a few guys, but we're definitely not sleeping 517 00:21:54,520 --> 00:21:56,119 Speaker 1: on anybody because I mean, at the end of the day, 518 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: it's the NFL. They're getting paid over there too. Tony 519 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:01,960 Speaker 1: Jefferson's on the other side. See you exchange any any 520 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: text messages with him this week?

I think in every kind of level of 588 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: his game, film, study, on the field, off the field 589 00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: interviews like, he's exactly the type of pro that that 590 00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,439 Speaker 1: you want. Yeah, exactly, I thought it was also interesting 591 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: kind of the outlook that they have losing Marcus, you know, 592 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:19,800 Speaker 1: I mean that's a big loss. That was a big 593 00:25:19,800 --> 00:25:21,960 Speaker 1: free agent signing, and he's gotten off to a hot start. 594 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: And Chuck's kind of like you just see from the demeanor. 595 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,880 Speaker 1: You know, it's like, yeah, obviously you feel for Marcus 596 00:25:27,880 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 1: and it's it's not good, but like, you know, I 597 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: feel like we'll be all right. You know, the expectations 598 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:36,160 Speaker 1: are high for the next guy coming up, and uh, 599 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:38,400 Speaker 1: you know, I think the Ravens are high on Gino 600 00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:40,840 Speaker 1: Stone too. You know. They think that he's a starting 601 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,280 Speaker 1: caliber guy. Like they felt like in training camp that 602 00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:48,479 Speaker 1: they had like five starting safeties, you know, And so 603 00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,840 Speaker 1: we're gonna see and Gino he really does have a 604 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,080 Speaker 1: note for the ball, like it reminds me of He 605 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 1: reminds me of Chuck in so many different ways. Like 606 00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:57,679 Speaker 1: Chuck kind of had that and showed that early in 607 00:25:57,720 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 1: his career, just in preseason games. He would notice him 608 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:03,200 Speaker 1: round the ball a lot. And I remember in uh, 609 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: what year was it, I guess it was twenty sixteen, 610 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,800 Speaker 1: even I think I remember he came in late against 611 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,480 Speaker 1: the Chiefs in a game. He there's an injury and 612 00:26:13,520 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: he came in and he got to pick um My 613 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,600 Speaker 1: homes late in that game, and uh and it just 614 00:26:18,680 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 1: kind of like Gino has shown that in preseason games. 615 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 1: You know, he's do you know what, he had two 616 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 1: picks in one of the preseason games. Um so like 617 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: and in practice you see it like he just kind 618 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:30,880 Speaker 1: of has that nos Well. I think it's also interesting 619 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: like the player perspective here from Chuck, like he has 620 00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:36,959 Speaker 1: been that guy and that's like his point, Like I 621 00:26:36,960 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 1: have been that guy, late round pick, special teamer. You 622 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 1: got a kind of claw and scratch to keep your 623 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:44,679 Speaker 1: spot on the team and you get an opportunity and 624 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,840 Speaker 1: he sees it and then he gets a nice contract 625 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: in the starting guy ever since. So like you kind 626 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:50,919 Speaker 1: of have that chip on your shoulder like that, all right, 627 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: bet exactly, like you know, this is my time, I'm 628 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: gonna go and do that. So I think he has 629 00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,439 Speaker 1: confidence um and Gino and like, look, I I have 630 00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:03,120 Speaker 1: confidence Gino. Two. I think replacing Marcus Williams is gonna 631 00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,480 Speaker 1: be a real challenge, just so listeners of viewers know. 632 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,639 Speaker 1: John Harball said that it's not a season ending injury, 633 00:27:08,800 --> 00:27:10,600 Speaker 1: which is great news for him but it is going 634 00:27:10,640 --> 00:27:12,520 Speaker 1: to be a significant amount of time. So we're looking 635 00:27:12,560 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 1: at you know, he's he did go on injured reserve, 636 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 1: so he's gonna be out a while, so I know 637 00:27:16,080 --> 00:27:20,120 Speaker 1: exactly how long. Yeah, he's playing with the broken risk 638 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: the whole first ash, just keep doing it right, Maybe not, 639 00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:27,119 Speaker 1: I mean like that, Yeah, I mean it's crazy. I 640 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:29,199 Speaker 1: mean I even noticed it on the Hayden Hurst when 641 00:27:29,240 --> 00:27:31,800 Speaker 1: he scored the touchdown, Like Marcus came and Hayden's a 642 00:27:31,800 --> 00:27:33,200 Speaker 1: pretty big due to try to take down and like 643 00:27:33,240 --> 00:27:35,600 Speaker 1: trying to take him down with one arm tough, you know, 644 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: So props props to Marcus for playing through that. But 645 00:27:39,720 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: I think certainly, you know, a little time off and 646 00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,439 Speaker 1: at least if the Ravens, you know, Ravens are making 647 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:47,000 Speaker 1: a playoff push late in December, whenever he comes back, 648 00:27:47,080 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 1: like it's great news that Marcus can come back. Yeah, totally. 649 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:55,080 Speaker 1: So this week it's the Giants, um and I think 650 00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:56,840 Speaker 1: when a lot of Ravens fans saw this game on 651 00:27:56,880 --> 00:27:58,640 Speaker 1: the schedule, you know, when you start doing the wins 652 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,160 Speaker 1: and losses in April, given how the Giants went last year, 653 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: this is one that you say, Okay, that's a win, right, well, 654 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 1: the Giants to four and one, and they've been really good. 655 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: They're coming off a big win over the Green Bay 656 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:11,800 Speaker 1: Packers in London. Uh, they've got a new head coach 657 00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 1: who seems to kind of have changed things there and 658 00:28:14,680 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 1: Wink Martindale is a defensive coordinator there to do there. 659 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: So that team seems is a much better team that 660 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people expected coming into the season. 661 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,639 Speaker 1: Se Kwon Barkley is proving that he probably is the 662 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: best running back in the league, one of and it's 663 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:33,159 Speaker 1: playing at a at a super high level. So um, 664 00:28:33,200 --> 00:28:35,679 Speaker 1: not an easy task by any means. This week, a 665 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:38,160 Speaker 1: lot of it I think centers around s Quan. You know, 666 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:41,720 Speaker 1: if the Ravens are able to play well against se 667 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 1: Quon and kind of limit him, you're not gonna shut 668 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: him out obviously. Like their whole offense runs through se Kjuan. 669 00:28:47,000 --> 00:28:51,040 Speaker 1: I mean he's Juan leads league in all purpose yards. Uh, 670 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:54,920 Speaker 1: he's second in rushing their offense. I mean he dominates 671 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: the carries. Second is actually Daniel Jones has about twice 672 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: a little more than twice as many areas of Daniel trains, 673 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: but he runs a little bit Daniel does. Um, he's 674 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:07,000 Speaker 1: also got the second most targets on the team as 675 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 1: a receiver and he's only trailing a guy, Stirling Shepard. 676 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,760 Speaker 1: He's now hurt, so like he might be their leading 677 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: pass catching option as well. The whole offense goes through saying, 678 00:29:15,520 --> 00:29:17,400 Speaker 1: I mean it's not there's not too many players that 679 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: find themselves in this situation. But I mean it's not 680 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:22,840 Speaker 1: it's not unexpected if he gets thirty plus touches and 681 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: he definitely right, which is kind of unheard of these days. 682 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:30,600 Speaker 1: These days, just about every team has that nobody has 683 00:29:30,680 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 1: except for the Giants, really has a situation where you 684 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: have a running back that you can just give the 685 00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:37,560 Speaker 1: ball to times a game. That's why you and I 686 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 1: both have se Kuan on our fantasy teams this week. 687 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:46,160 Speaker 1: Obviously a bench of situation obviously obviously, Um, But back 688 00:29:46,400 --> 00:29:49,800 Speaker 1: back to real football. UM, I do think that that's 689 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 1: the challenge. Yeah, I think it'll be interesting because the 690 00:29:52,400 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: Bengals did have some moments in the game where they 691 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 1: had success on the ground and Joe mix and found 692 00:29:57,200 --> 00:29:59,239 Speaker 1: some holes and p Ryan actually find some holes. Right. 693 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,640 Speaker 1: That's been the pricing thing is the runs defense hasn't 694 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 1: been as dominant. Like the defensive line for the Ravens 695 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: I think is really really good. Now, obviously you lost 696 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 1: Michael Pierce. That chips away at that, but like that 697 00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 1: was one of the team's strength, if not the biggest strength. 698 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,040 Speaker 1: You know, we all talked about the secondary, and then 699 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 1: a couple of weeks and you're like, this defensive line 700 00:30:16,080 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 1: might be the strength of the We're gonna see that. 701 00:30:18,800 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 1: That's gonna be put to the test this week. And 702 00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:22,560 Speaker 1: I think, you know, giving up a hundred and I 703 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:24,600 Speaker 1: think it was a hundred three or hundred one yards 704 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: the Bengals on twenty one carries. You, Now, that's about 705 00:30:27,440 --> 00:30:29,920 Speaker 1: five yards of pop. That's that's not great. I think 706 00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: part of that was the way the Ravens were playing 707 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:34,880 Speaker 1: defense in that game. It was too high safety. You 708 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: don't have those safeties crashing down to stop that run 709 00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:40,640 Speaker 1: quite as as easily, right, So I think this week 710 00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 1: it's a different kind of game plan. Those safeties will 711 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:46,480 Speaker 1: be around the chuck, will be around the line of scrimmage, 712 00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: a little bit more shutting down the run game. Yeah, well, 713 00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: of course, you want to stop everything. You want to 714 00:30:50,280 --> 00:30:51,680 Speaker 1: stop the run game, you want to stop the deep 715 00:30:51,680 --> 00:30:55,160 Speaker 1: shops you want no exactly. The Ravens picked their right. 716 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 1: They the deep shot, they're not doing it, and it worked. 717 00:30:57,520 --> 00:30:59,840 Speaker 1: That strategy works, And Joe Burrow said after the game, 718 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,200 Speaker 1: basically like if teams are playing us that way, it's 719 00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 1: you just can't really push the ball down the field 720 00:31:04,680 --> 00:31:07,080 Speaker 1: for this big place. And so the Ravens eliminated. The 721 00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 1: Ravens dictated the game kind of defensively. They dictated how 722 00:31:10,400 --> 00:31:13,120 Speaker 1: the Bengals were gonna play. Yeah, so different game, different opponent. 723 00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,840 Speaker 1: I think it'll probably be a different strategy exactly uh 724 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:18,520 Speaker 1: this week. And then you know, the Wink Martindale factor 725 00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: for the Ravens offense I think is an interesting one. Yes, um, 726 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: you know it's one of those he knows the offense, 727 00:31:26,240 --> 00:31:30,160 Speaker 1: Ravens know his defense. Uh. The easy way, the very 728 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: simple way of looking at it is, Okay, he's the 729 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 1: blitz and guy, he's gonna he's gonna turn up the heat. 730 00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:36,560 Speaker 1: That's what he's known for. But does he change does 731 00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:38,200 Speaker 1: he change his approach this week? Does he know that 732 00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: the Ravens though that he knows that, we know that 733 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: he knows that, you know? Yeah, so so where does 734 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:46,200 Speaker 1: where does the buck stop? Yeah. The interesting thing about 735 00:31:46,240 --> 00:31:48,960 Speaker 1: that is, you know, obviously the Ravens kind of struggled 736 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,480 Speaker 1: handling the blitz last year, especially the cover zero blitz 737 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:54,760 Speaker 1: that Wink love so much. Right, So, when Wink was decordinated, 738 00:31:54,840 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: last thing he saw from Lamar Jackson this offense is 739 00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,720 Speaker 1: Miami game and the struggles. Right. But I'm sure he's 740 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: doing his research and watching film and sees that Lamar 741 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:06,840 Speaker 1: has been SATELLITN and dice and that blitz up right, 742 00:32:06,880 --> 00:32:10,080 Speaker 1: So it's like, what's you do? I really don't know. 743 00:32:10,200 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 1: I really don't know what direction. My hunch is that, 744 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:16,520 Speaker 1: you know, the tiger, it's hard to change those stripes. 745 00:32:17,400 --> 00:32:23,560 Speaker 1: Tigers ze, tigers have strip What do you think tigers 746 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: can just change their stripes? Yeah, it's a that's saying 747 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: is a zebra doesn't change the stripes. You know, I 748 00:32:29,480 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 1: never get saying right, this is part of the course. 749 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: I got that one right, part for the course, thank you. Um, 750 00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:40,720 Speaker 1: So that zebra ain't changing those stripes. Probably, that's my 751 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,560 Speaker 1: hunch that we'll still see a fair amount of blessing. 752 00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,040 Speaker 1: What about the tiger, the tiger those stripes to just 753 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 1: get wiggly on. Um No, I I would agree. I 754 00:32:51,560 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 1: think that, like there's probably enough body of evidence that 755 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 1: shows that, like if it's third and seven, it's third 756 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:02,720 Speaker 1: and five, probably not half and a key one score game. 757 00:33:02,960 --> 00:33:04,520 Speaker 1: I think Wink's gonna turn up the heat and he's 758 00:33:04,560 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: gonna blitz. Yeah, but he'll have some kind of like 759 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,160 Speaker 1: little wrinkles in there, you know, like he saved that 760 00:33:09,240 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 1: for the Chiefs to that kind of delayed like drop 761 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 1: you know, O A into coverage and then he comes 762 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:16,440 Speaker 1: on this like ultra delayed blitz. He'll he'll have some 763 00:33:17,440 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 1: I am sure that Wink has been working on this 764 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: game plan for a little bit of time and he 765 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,200 Speaker 1: will have some wrinkles totally. So the Ravens just have 766 00:33:25,240 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: to adjust that, and I think they've done a pretty 767 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 1: good job of that this season. Yeah, all right, so 768 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: let's read an email here. It's obvious you can emails 769 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:33,520 Speaker 1: at the last at Ravens ont NFL dot net um 770 00:33:33,600 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 1: and we try to get to as many questions as you. Candice. 771 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 1: One comes through us from Todd, who was in Richmond, says, 772 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 1: why is it Nick Boyle playing more? I thought he 773 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,080 Speaker 1: was going to be an important part of the offense 774 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:45,640 Speaker 1: this year. Yeah, Well, I think you know, really they 775 00:33:45,720 --> 00:33:47,880 Speaker 1: just the fact of the matter is they like and 776 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:50,760 Speaker 1: think that Josh Oliver is offering more at this time. 777 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 1: And I think the past couple of weeks, Josh Oliver 778 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:56,320 Speaker 1: has played pretty darn well. Uh just came off a 779 00:33:56,360 --> 00:34:00,000 Speaker 1: really strong game in terms of his run blocking, which um, 780 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:02,400 Speaker 1: I think was you know, the first couple of games 781 00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:05,400 Speaker 1: it wasn't particularly great. He's improved that category and really 782 00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: kind of earned those reps. You know. So even as 783 00:34:07,600 --> 00:34:11,440 Speaker 1: Nick has gotten healthier, Josh has played better, and the 784 00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:14,480 Speaker 1: Ravens just feel like he offers more right now. Yeah, 785 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:17,840 Speaker 1: And I think that, like, as the Ravens get some 786 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,400 Speaker 1: like Gus Edwards, when I don't know when he's exactly 787 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 1: gonna get back on the field. I think it'll be 788 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,399 Speaker 1: interesting to see, uh if Nick ends up taking on 789 00:34:26,440 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 1: any larger role, you know, if Gus comes back and 790 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,480 Speaker 1: they're looking at more of you know, Gus is the 791 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,520 Speaker 1: hammer in this running game, and does Nick fit that 792 00:34:34,600 --> 00:34:36,800 Speaker 1: a little bit more? I don't know, We'll see. So 793 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:39,480 Speaker 1: as Nick continues as the season goes along, does he 794 00:34:39,719 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 1: continue to get healthier, um from the knee injury that 795 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,439 Speaker 1: he has plagued him for the past couple of years. UM. 796 00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:49,239 Speaker 1: I think that the basic answer is that, you know, 797 00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,759 Speaker 1: that knee injury is really tough, was really difficult, and 798 00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: Nick has talked about that, and so that's been hard 799 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,359 Speaker 1: to overcome and he's still working his way back from it. Um. 800 00:34:57,400 --> 00:34:59,120 Speaker 1: I think that makes way better this year than he 801 00:34:59,160 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 1: did last year. UM. But there's you know, all the 802 00:35:01,920 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 1: guys have elevated their game too. I thought it was interesting. 803 00:35:04,640 --> 00:35:06,560 Speaker 1: I talked to Nick in the locker room one day, 804 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 1: just he and I and I said to him, you know, 805 00:35:08,320 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 1: he lost all that weight, He lost a significant amount 806 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:14,000 Speaker 1: of weight, and I asked him whether he's had to 807 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:17,400 Speaker 1: change his game up as a result of that, and 808 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: he was like, honestly, yeah, Like you know, when he 809 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: was kind of bigger and before the injury, obviously the 810 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 1: injury impact of that, like he could just kind of 811 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,480 Speaker 1: just hold a guy off with one arm and keep 812 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: him at bay, right, and now being a little bit lighter, 813 00:35:30,719 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 1: and you know, he's still putting up good numbers in 814 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 1: the weight room. He said he's still like strong, but 815 00:35:36,040 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: being a little lighter. He says he just has to 816 00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 1: like move his feet more, and it's it's a there's 817 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:44,759 Speaker 1: more effort required in blocking for him now at this wait, now, 818 00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 1: the flip side, and the good reason why it was 819 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 1: good to lose that weight was that it helped him 820 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 1: and his knee. Right, It was just less of a 821 00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 1: load on that knee, and it helped him recuperating all 822 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: that stuff faster and easier, and his body just feels better. Right. 823 00:35:57,840 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 1: Um So, but as he kind of is admitting, it 824 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: was a bit of a trade off, and I think 825 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 1: he's just gonna have to get used to playing at 826 00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: that high level with a different body. Yeah, all right, 827 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: So the last thing before we before we wrap this up, 828 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 1: good news some good news on the injury front to 829 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,640 Speaker 1: go along with the bad news of Marcus Williams. But 830 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:17,720 Speaker 1: good news on the injury front and that Taius Bowser 831 00:36:18,239 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: and David a job returned to practice this week, both 832 00:36:21,320 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 1: of them coming off torn achilles and Bowser suffered his 833 00:36:23,920 --> 00:36:27,040 Speaker 1: in the season finale against Pittsburgh in January. A job 834 00:36:27,120 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 1: of suffered his during the draft fleet up in March. 835 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 1: So look, I was I'll be honest, I was surprised 836 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:35,720 Speaker 1: when I saw the transaction come through and both guys 837 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,879 Speaker 1: are gonna be practicing, I think, you know, that's a 838 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:41,600 Speaker 1: great sign for the rookie, get Jaba who You don't 839 00:36:41,600 --> 00:36:43,720 Speaker 1: think some Ravens fans probably felt like, you know, maybe 840 00:36:43,880 --> 00:36:45,279 Speaker 1: is this a red shirt year? You know, I know 841 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: they even say he's gonna play, but is it really 842 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 1: kind of a richer year? What can you expect out 843 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:50,799 Speaker 1: of him? The fact the fact that he's practicing here 844 00:36:50,800 --> 00:36:53,480 Speaker 1: a week six is a great sign for him, and 845 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:56,359 Speaker 1: all of a sudden pass rusher that everybody's been nervous about, 846 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: JPP is looking looking really good. Always turned it up 847 00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,600 Speaker 1: little bit the past couple of weeks, and then you 848 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 1: get these guys coming back that could end up being 849 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 1: you know, when everyone's on the field justin Houston could 850 00:37:08,160 --> 00:37:12,479 Speaker 1: be getting back soon, could Yeah, totally. This pass rush 851 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 1: is rounding into four, and I think the Ravens have 852 00:37:14,480 --> 00:37:16,520 Speaker 1: felt like this was around the corner of the whole time. 853 00:37:16,560 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: It was just like like how far is the corner exactly? 854 00:37:18,520 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 1: It was just kind of like can we get there right? 855 00:37:20,760 --> 00:37:23,799 Speaker 1: It was like can we keep hanging on, hanging on 856 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:25,759 Speaker 1: and playing a lot of reps with these guys in 857 00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:27,560 Speaker 1: O A and and Houston was playing a lot of 858 00:37:27,560 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 1: reps early and now JPPS playing its on the snaps 859 00:37:29,840 --> 00:37:31,560 Speaker 1: and it was kind of like can we hang on 860 00:37:31,640 --> 00:37:34,560 Speaker 1: long enough until the reinforcements come? And and now they're 861 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:37,799 Speaker 1: coming right, And it's just every week is almost like, 862 00:37:38,239 --> 00:37:40,440 Speaker 1: you know, Wednesday is just like a great day because 863 00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:42,560 Speaker 1: it's like what gift do we have them to the 864 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:44,680 Speaker 1: tree this week? Like what player is going to return 865 00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:46,960 Speaker 1: to practice this week? Right? Like is it Dobbins? Now 866 00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:51,720 Speaker 1: Stanley is full participant? Like every week it's just every 867 00:37:51,719 --> 00:37:54,040 Speaker 1: week like injuries and who's coming back and who the 868 00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 1: Ravens are unfortunately losing. It seems like the biggest storyline 869 00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 1: every single week. Um. I mean the the crazy part 870 00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:02,440 Speaker 1: is like, how's just thinking about this this morning? You know, 871 00:38:02,520 --> 00:38:05,400 Speaker 1: for as much as the Ravens health has improved with 872 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:08,200 Speaker 1: all these guys coming back from last year, they lost 873 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,360 Speaker 1: three like their three biggest three of the four biggest 874 00:38:11,360 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 1: free agent signings that they made this season are now 875 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 1: on I Are and Marcus Williams, like we said, isn't lost, 876 00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,879 Speaker 1: but you know then you added Michael Pierce and Kyle 877 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:20,440 Speaker 1: Floor too. That's three big additions that the Ravens made 878 00:38:20,480 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 1: in free agency that are all on the shelf right now. 879 00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:26,399 Speaker 1: That just stinks, but we're not gonna end on that note. 880 00:38:26,400 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 1: We're not gonna end on that note. The positive note 881 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:30,560 Speaker 1: is that Bowser's coming back, A job is coming back, 882 00:38:30,800 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: so that Gus is now getting entering his second week 883 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,239 Speaker 1: of practice. So then ask your questions when you see 884 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,160 Speaker 1: these guys on the field. I don't know. I mean, 885 00:38:37,200 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 1: I think certainly it depends how they play in practice. Um. Also, 886 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,520 Speaker 1: Ronnie Stanley played but played limited snap count, only twenty 887 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 1: two snaps compared to forty three for Patrick McCarey. I 888 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:52,160 Speaker 1: would expect to see Ronnie his playtime increase over time. Certainly, 889 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 1: it depends on how he feels. He said he felt 890 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:55,719 Speaker 1: pretty good come out of the game, but little streness. 891 00:38:56,400 --> 00:38:58,200 Speaker 1: He played about a third of the snaps. I don't know, 892 00:38:58,600 --> 00:39:00,840 Speaker 1: does he play two thirds of snaps time? Right? I 893 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:03,080 Speaker 1: don't know that he's gonna jump to a percent immediately, 894 00:39:03,120 --> 00:39:05,800 Speaker 1: but I think that certainly I'll have more and what 895 00:39:05,800 --> 00:39:07,799 Speaker 1: whatever share that looks like, I think it could be 896 00:39:08,320 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 1: significantly more. Yeah, and and then gusho and and and 897 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,759 Speaker 1: on Ronnie. Just so I note this is kind of 898 00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:18,399 Speaker 1: an important part. Is he played really well? Yeah? Yeah, right, 899 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: I mean like he looked like Pro Bowl, All Pro 900 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:24,120 Speaker 1: Ronnie like played very well, and that is a really 901 00:39:24,160 --> 00:39:26,680 Speaker 1: great sign. Yeah, that's the most important. That is the 902 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: most important. And now hope that the health and playing 903 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:32,760 Speaker 1: well those two things both married. They both came together, 904 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,040 Speaker 1: you know, and we'll see this week how his body feels. 905 00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:38,279 Speaker 1: It feels in response. Totally back to the past rush 906 00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:41,319 Speaker 1: real quick, you know, losing Marcus Williams like you lose 907 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,680 Speaker 1: that ball hawk, you know, leader and with three interceptions 908 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:45,680 Speaker 1: on the team, but when you add the pass rush, 909 00:39:45,800 --> 00:39:49,320 Speaker 1: like now you have this chance of stilk creating turnovers 910 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:53,040 Speaker 1: which has been a a big part of this defense 911 00:39:53,200 --> 00:39:55,799 Speaker 1: early in the season. Right, Like, those two things, pass 912 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,480 Speaker 1: rush and coverage are married. And so I think that 913 00:39:58,520 --> 00:40:02,040 Speaker 1: the Ravens defense still and create havoc once they are 914 00:40:02,080 --> 00:40:05,160 Speaker 1: getting more pressure. Pressure on the quarterbacks, which is you know, 915 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: has been a problem in some games this year. It's 916 00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,439 Speaker 1: been good at others, but once you get those dudes 917 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:13,080 Speaker 1: on the field, like look out. Yeah, and and as 918 00:40:13,120 --> 00:40:15,560 Speaker 1: you spent time talking about earlier, Gina Stone does have 919 00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: a nose for the football. So if if if you're 920 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 1: getting pressure that that knows it's like Pinocchio, that's a 921 00:40:22,680 --> 00:40:25,799 Speaker 1: terrible analogy. You're just you're just full of bad analogies. 922 00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,520 Speaker 1: It's like a tiger getting his stripes and that tail 923 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:33,000 Speaker 1: gets longer and you get more picks, and just it 924 00:40:33,080 --> 00:40:42,959 Speaker 1: all makes sense. Right, It's exactly right, theod tiger zebra. 925 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a big
