Speaker 1: fifty ESPN Cleveland.

5
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no, I mean Joe through like it was

6
00:00:23,520 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 2: where it had to be. It was perfect, you know,

7
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 2: I mean it was there was. There's not like a

8
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 2: place it could have been better, you feel me? So, yeah,

9
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:33,080
Speaker 2: might have just catch.

10
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:36,599
Speaker 3: It second a goal brown stay big roll out right

11
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,360
Speaker 3: here slack a rolling, rolling, rolling, rolling, firing into the

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:41,800
Speaker 3: corner of the episode.

13
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 4: Hit Joko caught it to touchdown the chase.

14
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 5: Like I said before, I mean, it wasn't that difficult.

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:52,040
Speaker 5: I mean the catch probably had a degree of difficulty

16
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 5: just because I was able to see a couple of guys.

17
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 6: In my career.

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 5: But I wasn't really worried about that. I knew that,

19
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 5: you know, I had to make him play. As far

20
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 5: as just catching the ball, I didn't know I would score.

21
00:01:02,160 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 5: But you know, I'll tribute the whole thing to Joe

22
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,440
Speaker 5: just because now I played with a lot of different quarterbacks,

23
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:09,480
Speaker 5: and not a lot of quarterbacks are keen enough to

24
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 5: make the throw away. Had he made it it was incredible.

25
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:16,360
Speaker 3: You know, play action fake as Flacco drifts right, throws

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:17,280
Speaker 3: and he's got.

27
00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 4: Cooper Robin he caught it.

28
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,520
Speaker 7: Twenty fifteen ten five touchdown.

29
00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:24,120
Speaker 4: I don't believe it.

30
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 8: Cooper open and Cooper tightrope blocks down the sideline.

31
00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:31,600
Speaker 4: Jippy toes in. I blacked out.

32
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 6: I don't know. Yeah, I mean, honestly, that's that's this season.

33
00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 7: The ball is here, sing that's in or something by

34
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 7: the bulls.

35
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 4: That's the end of it.

36
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:42,679
Speaker 9: Doll got it.

37
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:44,040
Speaker 10: He got it.

38
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 11: Ball game over, Crowns win, Brown's win twenty to Sevenen.

39
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:52,560
Speaker 6: Who could have broke this story? I mean, I'm not

40
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 6: a doctor Seuss.

41
00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:58,920
Speaker 8: So it's all over, Thank God, because Jim.

42
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:03,200
Speaker 4: That ball was down onto Darnell Mooney's.

43
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,440
Speaker 8: Chest, who was on the ground, and then it popped

44
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:09,080
Speaker 8: up into the air miraculously and the Anthony Bell gets

45
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 8: the interception.

46
00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: Darnell Mooney had a shot at it. Oh my god.

47
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,120
Speaker 8: The Cardiac Chians are back, Yim nine and five and

48
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 8: you remain undefeated.

49
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:23,639
Speaker 1: He are your hosts, Bow Bishop and Matanzi.

50
00:02:23,200 --> 00:02:28,560
Speaker 12: Euro Oh, let's do it live on a victory Monday.

51
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 12: Your emotion in the last one. There's a billion things

52
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,920
Speaker 12: to go with here, but I did want to you.

53
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 12: You have been one of the few constants with this team.

54
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:41,000
Speaker 12: It's been a revolving door on the roster obviously with

55
00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:44,560
Speaker 12: the people that you've worked with, as well as you

56
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 12: are observing and calling and trying to make sense of

57
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 12: what happens on a weekend, week out basis with this team.

58
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:55,919
Speaker 4: How do you I don't know. I love this team, man,

59
00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 4: I I know you do. My kind of team, Charlie.

60
00:02:59,240 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 4: This is a love is I know you do.

61
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,040
Speaker 12: It's obvious, but just from the standpoint of in the

62
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 12: moment every we every game, it ends like this.

63
00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:10,720
Speaker 4: It's Hopkins kicking a field goal.

64
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 12: It's a hail Mary that lands in Mooney's chest that's

65
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:16,680
Speaker 12: somehow matriculates to the Anthony Bell's hands and it's over.

66
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 4: I mean, if you.

67
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,840
Speaker 12: It's a crazy circumstance week in and week out, and

68
00:03:21,880 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 12: somehow you're nine to five throughout it.

69
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 4: It's unbelievable.

70
00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:25,840
Speaker 13: It is.

71
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 14: I mean, I lost a stat I think from CBS

72
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 14: that it's not been since nineteen fifty that a team

73
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 14: has not only had four different quarterbacks play, but has

74
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,800
Speaker 14: had four different quarterbacks lead a game winning drive in

75
00:03:38,880 --> 00:03:42,040
Speaker 14: the same season, and you think about PJ. Walker in Indianapolis,

76
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:48,240
Speaker 14: you think about you know, dtr against the Pittsburgh Steelers,

77
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 14: Dashaun against the Ravens, and now Joe Flacco and this

78
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 14: one it gets it done against the Bears and then

79
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 14: a game that felt like it was gone. And that's

80
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,920
Speaker 14: what you know, how it makes sense it is. Once

81
00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 14: we tied it, I totally was sure we're gonna win.

82
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,160
Speaker 4: Third and fifteen.

83
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 14: I'm like, I don't know how we're getting a field goal,

84
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:10,560
Speaker 14: but Dustin Hopkins is going to kick a field goal,

85
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 14: and then third and fifteen happens. He flows it off

86
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:19,599
Speaker 14: of his back foot to David Ajoku, who is I think, like,

87
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:22,120
Speaker 14: put him on my mount rushmore now for sure, like

88
00:04:22,279 --> 00:04:25,000
Speaker 14: no question, lock I love him. I love the way

89
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:26,560
Speaker 14: I got talked to him after the game and his locker.

90
00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 14: He just gets it so profoundly. Then will do anything

91
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,359
Speaker 14: for this football team. And he is showing up big,

92
00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 14: bigly as you like to say ten catches, career high

93
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 14: over one hundred yards. He's now said career highs with

94
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,680
Speaker 14: four quarterbacks and catches yards and touchdowns.

95
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:44,919
Speaker 4: And he won't be denied.

96
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,559
Speaker 14: He is kind of the physical embodiment of the soul

97
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,600
Speaker 14: of this football team. I said it on the broadcaster.

98
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 14: Shame some people got a kick out of it. Forged

99
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,560
Speaker 14: in fire. I mean, this guy was literally forged in

100
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,800
Speaker 14: fire and has come out and his will he will

101
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,039
Speaker 14: not be stopped. It's not enough that we caught it.

102
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 14: We got the first down on third and fifteen that

103
00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 14: have been grown.

104
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:06,040
Speaker 4: Then he picks up.

105
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:11,720
Speaker 14: Another twenty yards through three guys and it's like unbelievables.

106
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 14: Team is unbelievable. I just say, wow, I love it.

107
00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 14: It's so fun. You gotta enjoy it. Is it improbable?

108
00:05:17,560 --> 00:05:20,839
Speaker 14: Of course it is, But there's something about this team

109
00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:25,240
Speaker 14: and their belief in each other that it doesn't matter

110
00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,719
Speaker 14: in years past, there's no doubt in my mind. When

111
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 14: we got the muff punt and then we throw a

112
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,039
Speaker 14: pick that should have been a touchdown, that's and seventeen seven.

113
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 4: That's typically it. Good night, irene H.

114
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 14: We'll see you next week and hopefully go down to

115
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 14: Houston and get this win back.

116
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,720
Speaker 4: But not this team. They don't care.

117
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,039
Speaker 14: Alex Wright steps up, makes massive plays, a sack and

118
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 14: that stop on third downs. Unbelievable game to recognize that

119
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 14: they ran the jetswee which we've been.

120
00:05:52,279 --> 00:05:53,440
Speaker 4: He's gone. He might be.

121
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 14: He might be still running Cam Mitchell to get just

122
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 14: enough of Justin Fields on fourth down to keep him short.

123
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,640
Speaker 14: The Anthony Bell with the game ceiling interception. Hickman was

124
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,120
Speaker 14: all over the field. You're talking about guys that are

125
00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,520
Speaker 14: showing up. John Harmon played I think thirty something. Snaps

126
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 14: off the couch. I mean your quarterbacks off the couch.

127
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 14: The guy who leads your team in rushing touchdowns was

128
00:06:12,200 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 14: off the couch. Your left tackle is off the couch.

129
00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,000
Speaker 14: Dron Harmon off the couch, like signed out of from

130
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,880
Speaker 14: out of the league. Ye into prominent roles in this team.

131
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:25,599
Speaker 14: It doesn't matter. Everybody keeps stepping up. J Oka a star,

132
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 14: I mean he is. He should if he's on the

133
00:06:27,839 --> 00:06:31,440
Speaker 14: Pro Bowl. It's a it's a crime. This team just

134
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 14: finds a way, and it's that belief.

135
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 6: You know.

136
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:36,840
Speaker 14: You think about Kareem Hunt. The stats weren't necessarily great,

137
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:40,120
Speaker 14: but picks up the huge one on third down. Dtr

138
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:43,080
Speaker 14: comes in on a fourth down, yeah and throws it

139
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 14: and we get a first down because of a nice

140
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:46,240
Speaker 14: block from Elijah Moore.

141
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 4: Just every it.

142
00:06:47,240 --> 00:06:51,000
Speaker 14: Takes everybody on this team, and every single week they

143
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 14: find a way. And that's why this team is so unbelievable.

144
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 14: They're so likable. This is a team that's so Cleveland.

145
00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 14: Everybody here should be obsessed with this team.

146
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 4: Quite frankly, I know they are.

147
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 6: They are.

148
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 4: It's unreal. It's unreal.

149
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:08,240
Speaker 12: So was ended up watching this on my phone in

150
00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,280
Speaker 12: between games at the Fieldhouse in Brexville, in between youth

151
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 12: basketball games, and so I have a DVR, and I

152
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:15,160
Speaker 12: rewatched it last night when I got home. But in

153
00:07:15,200 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 12: terms of like you can't hide from it if you're

154
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 12: out and about right, like you get a thousand people

155
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 12: coming up to you. There's little kids watching it on

156
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 12: their phones. And so I'm watching with a buddy of mine.

157
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 12: We're watching as the game is closing out, and you know,

158
00:07:29,480 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 12: there's so many things I want to get.

159
00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 4: Into in terms of the specifics of the plays.

160
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 12: But there's a woman just down the bleachers to the

161
00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:36,720
Speaker 12: left and she said, boy, we just can't never have

162
00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:39,640
Speaker 12: anything easy. And I just felt like like she doesn't

163
00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:40,960
Speaker 12: know like what I do, or that I would have

164
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,680
Speaker 12: a point of reference on how many people are out

165
00:07:42,720 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 12: or the amount of injuries or just what this team

166
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 12: has dealt with and it's like, are you kidding? Like,

167
00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 12: who is not playing for this team is a pick

168
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:55,160
Speaker 12: to win the AFC North team.

169
00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,960
Speaker 4: Who's not playing, who has missed games?

170
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,720
Speaker 12: That's the amount of talent that isn't This is nuts, man,

171
00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,480
Speaker 12: this doesn't make sense. I was listening to you guys

172
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:09,160
Speaker 12: driving from LowDye to Brexville to play. So this was

173
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,160
Speaker 12: like from one forty five to probably two thirty ish

174
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 12: and and you were you guys were you guys were discussing.

175
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,760
Speaker 12: You're like, we cannot block them, we cannot block them.

176
00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:21,440
Speaker 12: And we were losing at the time in the game,

177
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 12: and it was like, this feels finite. Another injury on

178
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,240
Speaker 12: the line. Potonio is not playing, Harris is injured. It's

179
00:08:28,280 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 12: like who's left. You don't even have an offensive line

180
00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,079
Speaker 12: at this point. I mean, you're you're eighteen deep at

181
00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,880
Speaker 12: this point. And it was like, well, this has been

182
00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:39,680
Speaker 12: a fun run, but eventually you cross a rubicon of

183
00:08:39,720 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 12: too many injuries to overcome, right, and for this team,

184
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:47,280
Speaker 12: there is no rubicon that's too much to overcome. They

185
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,160
Speaker 12: find a way. It's a It's a tremendous amount of

186
00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 12: credit goes to Stefanski. And his staff, ab and his

187
00:08:55,559 --> 00:09:00,559
Speaker 12: staff for building a depth of ross through the likes

188
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 12: of which we have not seen here probably ever. Certainly,

189
00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,040
Speaker 12: neither you nor I have ever seen this depth of

190
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:09,959
Speaker 12: talent that the next man up can actually go and

191
00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,080
Speaker 12: and it is also a great credit to them and

192
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,960
Speaker 12: the leaders on this team you mentioned, chief certainly Miles,

193
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:17,800
Speaker 12: the guys Joel, the guys who've been around your matter

194
00:09:17,880 --> 00:09:21,679
Speaker 12: mouth like, the culture has been flipped here. That's what's

195
00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 12: happened in the Stefanski era is the culture has been flipped,

196
00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:29,640
Speaker 12: and games that the old Browns would lose, this group wins.

197
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 12: And I was with you, like, you know, and it's

198
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:35,320
Speaker 12: a bunch of Clevelanders around me, and they're like, oh

199
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,920
Speaker 12: my god, please don't miss, please don't miss. I know

200
00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:38,840
Speaker 12: it was a little close to the to the uh

201
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:41,400
Speaker 12: to the goalposts on the one side on the final

202
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:43,560
Speaker 12: Hopkins kick, but I was like, he's not missing, No,

203
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:44,839
Speaker 12: dude's missing.

204
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:47,040
Speaker 4: No way that's going by the way.

205
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 14: He fooled me because I was like, I would imagine

206
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,040
Speaker 14: we're gonna sneak it to the left hand, and he

207
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 14: went to the right hasse and I saw in the

208
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,080
Speaker 14: locker room afterwards and we had a good chuckle and

209
00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,560
Speaker 14: I was like, yeah, he's like it was a right

210
00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:01,040
Speaker 14: hash kind of day, So.

211
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 12: Be it fine, Fine, keep pumping it right through Glenn Cook.

212
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:06,920
Speaker 4: Oh Man.

213
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:12,120
Speaker 14: I mean, you think about three undrafted free agents and

214
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 14: we had never had an undrafted free agent on the

215
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:15,960
Speaker 14: fifty three with with Andrew Berry and Kevins the fans

216
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,720
Speaker 14: for last year, d Anthony Bell interception seals the game.

217
00:10:19,960 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 14: Hickman was all over the field. Diabat comes up with

218
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:26,920
Speaker 14: the fumble recovery. I mean the doubt, yeah, and the

219
00:10:27,040 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 14: quality job that this scouting department did, and the pro

220
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,120
Speaker 14: personnel Dan sag and he shout out the big SAgs

221
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:36,240
Speaker 14: that they've done in identifying not only you know, the

222
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 14: guys in the college game that can be helpful to

223
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,560
Speaker 14: this Cleveland Browns team, but also the guys, you know,

224
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,360
Speaker 14: the pros that are not necessarily in the league at

225
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,920
Speaker 14: the moment who could help this football team. It's been

226
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 14: an unbelievable job of assembling it. And then they believe

227
00:10:51,000 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 14: like there's something special about the way that they believe

228
00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:58,560
Speaker 14: and you can see it when you're down seventeen to

229
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,960
Speaker 14: seven that interception happens. It feels like, okay, that were done,

230
00:11:03,120 --> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 14: and then the defense gets going. I mean, there was

231
00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:10,000
Speaker 14: a stretch from our touchdown in the second quarter which

232
00:11:10,040 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 14: tied it at seven to seven that we went punt

233
00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,840
Speaker 14: interception three and out, punt three and out, punt four

234
00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:21,120
Speaker 14: and out punt interception. So you're talking we did not

235
00:11:21,200 --> 00:11:24,040
Speaker 14: have more than four offensive plays on one, two, three,

236
00:11:24,120 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 14: six consecutive possessions. And then we go six for seventy

237
00:11:28,559 --> 00:11:32,200
Speaker 14: sixty seven field goal. We go six for eighty touchdown,

238
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:33,800
Speaker 14: eight for sixty eight field goal.

239
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:34,400
Speaker 4: And win the game.

240
00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 14: It's just Joe Flackel throws are two hundred and fourteen

241
00:11:37,679 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 14: yards in the fourth quarter, more than anybody's thrown for

242
00:11:41,160 --> 00:11:42,800
Speaker 14: in the fourth quarter in any game this season in

243
00:11:42,840 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 14: the National Football League. The throw to Amari Cooper is

244
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,400
Speaker 14: as good a throw as you will ever see in

245
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 14: your lifetime. Yeap, the throw to Marquee Finally, Marquith Goodwin

246
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 14: gets going. I mean everybody, it takes everybody. Then they

247
00:11:55,800 --> 00:11:57,240
Speaker 14: do it week in and week out.

248
00:11:57,240 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 4: This team.

249
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,960
Speaker 14: Who knows what this journey will ultimately be. But enjoy

250
00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 14: the ride, folks, because what's happening here is special. You

251
00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:07,880
Speaker 14: are playing at a major disadvantage you think of who

252
00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:10,160
Speaker 14: the poltiple players of Chicago Bears are, they were all

253
00:12:10,200 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 14: on the field, every single one of them. Yep, that's

254
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,640
Speaker 14: not the case for us. And yet this team goes

255
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,199
Speaker 14: out and finds way. And I'll tell you something, the

256
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 14: Bears are a good football team.

257
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 4: They're pretty dangerous.

258
00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 14: Montest sweat is problem elite Jones in the middle ninety

259
00:12:24,920 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 14: three Andrew Billings was playing.

260
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:27,000
Speaker 6: Yep.

261
00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:30,559
Speaker 14: Their linebackers Edwards and Edmonds are very good. We got

262
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:35,360
Speaker 14: the great corner Jalen Johnson, good safety in Brisker and Eddieck. No,

263
00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:41,120
Speaker 14: they're a team that next year depending on what avenue

264
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:43,000
Speaker 14: they pick. And I don't think it really is ultimately

265
00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 14: going to matter, just matters maybe how long the window was,

266
00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,000
Speaker 14: But I think they're gonna be good no matter what.

267
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,880
Speaker 14: They're going to have an opportunity to add, like have

268
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:52,160
Speaker 14: four first round picks or something like that, whatever they

269
00:12:52,160 --> 00:12:55,040
Speaker 14: get in the hall for Caleb Williams plus their own

270
00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,800
Speaker 14: plus the one from you know they got Carolina is

271
00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 14: that they'll either be able to draft a quarterback, trade

272
00:12:59,559 --> 00:12:59,840
Speaker 14: out of it.

273
00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:03,199
Speaker 4: Whatever. Yeah, their influx of talent's going to be.

274
00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:05,360
Speaker 14: Enormous, and their money that they're going to be able

275
00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:08,080
Speaker 14: to spend on talent as well. But this team is

276
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:11,640
Speaker 14: it's special. This is a special football team. It's so

277
00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:14,360
Speaker 14: special to be back in the booth with Jim. His

278
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 14: joy for this team and for what it means and

279
00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,800
Speaker 14: for all he's been through is second to none. He's

280
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 14: on fire right now on the cause. I think he's

281
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 14: better than ever. It's just been a wild ride, and

282
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,160
Speaker 14: just thrilled to be a part of it. You know,

283
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:29,960
Speaker 14: I got home and kind of just sat there.

284
00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:32,280
Speaker 4: I was like, again, here we go again, this again.

285
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 4: This is It's crazy. Nuts, It's crazy, It's nuts. The

286
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:38,640
Speaker 4: I also think it's not possible without Joe.

287
00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 12: Flacco's it's just not There was a His signing allowed

288
00:13:44,520 --> 00:13:48,040
Speaker 12: for a different ceiling on what could be accomplished.

289
00:13:49,800 --> 00:13:50,079
Speaker 4: PJ.

290
00:13:50,240 --> 00:13:53,120
Speaker 12: Walker, You're very thankful for what he did. You certainly

291
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 12: think that Dorian Thompson Robinson has a bright future in

292
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:59,720
Speaker 12: the National Football League. But Joe Flacco, his professionalism, his

293
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 12: been there, done that approach, his cool Joe mentality, it's

294
00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:09,120
Speaker 12: all working and it worked in another thrilling victory. And

295
00:14:09,160 --> 00:14:11,079
Speaker 12: of course he was quick to give credit to the defense,

296
00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:13,400
Speaker 12: one of the principal players on that defense joins us

297
00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 12: now on the hotline. Great friend of the program, Sioni

298
00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:19,360
Speaker 12: Taki Taki tok. Thank you so much for taking the time, buddy.

299
00:14:19,440 --> 00:14:21,560
Speaker 12: On a victory Monday. They're always sweeter when they are

300
00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 12: victory Mondays. How do you, guys, how do you explain

301
00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,880
Speaker 12: the belief that you guys have in each other? If

302
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,280
Speaker 12: ever there was one that maybe it would get away,

303
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 12: perhaps this would be it, but you guys don't ever

304
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,400
Speaker 12: stop and you keep believing. How do you explain how

305
00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:37,720
Speaker 12: that's been forged this season?

306
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 15: Yeah, it's just built you know, talked about all the

307
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 15: way back to Alta, Man, it's that culture that's been

308
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 15: built since then and all the way leading up into

309

328
00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:44,800
Speaker 14: no matter what the situation. You guys went out there

329
00:15:44,800 --> 00:15:47,480
Speaker 14: on defense and you think tack. You're looking around and

330
00:15:47,520 --> 00:15:49,440
Speaker 14: you're used to playing with a certain group of guys

331
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,520
Speaker 14: and all of a sudden you're playing with some different

332
00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 14: guys up there, and you think about the plays d

333
00:15:53,320 --> 00:15:55,920
Speaker 14: Anthony Bell made in this game. You think about Ronnie Hickman,

334
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 14: You think about Alex Wright stepping up with the huge

335
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 14: play on that third down where they try to run

336
00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 14: the Jets sweep to get the ball back. When you

337
00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:06,160

411
00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,199
Speaker 15: lot of football les December football got to play our

412
00:19:16,200 --> 00:19:19,199

Speaker 15: it's awesome to see him.

414
00:19:20,240 --> 00:19:21,280
Speaker 6: Over the years.

415
00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:25,359
Speaker 14: Tock you were drafted in twenty nineteen and twenty nineteen

416
00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:28,439
Speaker 14: was a probably in his own words, probably the bottom

417
00:19:28,440 --> 00:19:31,520
Speaker 14: of the career of David Njoku and didn't know kind

418
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,280
Speaker 14: of what his future held there and that was your

419
00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 14: rookie season. The way you've seen him grow up and

420
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,840
Speaker 14: become a star and a leader, even though he's on

421
00:19:40,840 --> 00:19:42,679
Speaker 14: the other side of you guys probably battle a lot against

422
00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 14: each other in training camp. What's it kind of been

423
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:47,359
Speaker 14: like seeing the way that the Chief you know, and

424
00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:49,399
Speaker 14: I said, forged in fire this year, the way that

425
00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,160
Speaker 14: he has just kind of become in many ways kind

426
00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 14: of the soul of this team in terms of the will,

427
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,800
Speaker 14: like he will not go down one man will not

428
00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,280
Speaker 14: tackle him. When you see a guy kind of evolve

429
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:00,879
Speaker 14: like that, what does that? What does that do for you?

430
00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,399
Speaker 14: And how have you enjoyed seeing his kind of journey?

431
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:08,080
Speaker 15: Yeah, Chief is my dude, obviously. Yeah, I've been able

432
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,320
Speaker 15: to see him closely. And it's funny man coaches highlighted

433
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,919
Speaker 15: him this last week. Man, he's Chief is just a

434
00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 15: great teammate man, a leader on this team. You know,

435
00:20:18,000 --> 00:20:20,320
Speaker 15: he can relate to a lot of anybody in the

436
00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:23,240
Speaker 15: locker room, that's his best you know, obviously, what he

437
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:25,560
Speaker 15: could do on the field office field, his best quality.

438
00:20:25,560 --> 00:20:28,280
Speaker 15: He could relate to everybody in the locker room, you

439
00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,719
Speaker 15: know what I mean, from different walks of life, and

440
00:20:30,800 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 15: so he just has that it to him, you know,

441
00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,640
Speaker 15: his natural leadership. And then on the field, Man obviously

442
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 15: you know he like you said twenty nineteen, him building

443
00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 15: and then you know, I'm coach to fancy them, comes

444
00:20:43,240 --> 00:20:45,720
Speaker 15: in and he has a different role. You know, he

445
00:20:45,840 --> 00:20:48,159
Speaker 15: was used as a blocker, and all of a sudden,

446
00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 15: you know, he was more of a pass catcher, and

447
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 15: all of a sudden he's blocking and freaking goes up.

448
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,919
Speaker 15: He freaking starts to dominate there. And obviously he's always

449
00:20:55,920 --> 00:20:58,520
Speaker 15: had that catching ability and now he has both and

450
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:03,640
Speaker 15: he's just dominating and really been high. He's he's a star,

451
00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 15: you know what I mean. And he has that, He's

452
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,120
Speaker 15: always had that in factor, but I feel like now

453
00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:11,280
Speaker 15: Man he has he has all of his toolboxes, catching

454
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,600
Speaker 15: in his block and he's a physical you know, he's

455
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:15,520
Speaker 15: he's trying one of those guys he'll do whatever it

456
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 15: takes to help the game plan the scheme. And again,

457
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,399
Speaker 15: Man a natural leader, you know, someone who can relate

458
00:21:22,440 --> 00:21:26,800
Speaker 15: to everybody and you know, can be himself and it's

459
00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 15: just a light and the star you know, to to

460
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 15: the team. And he he'll continue, you know, for years. Man,

461

568
00:26:30,880 --> 00:26:33,600
Speaker 15: You know, we need more guys boxing out guys. You know,

569
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,760
Speaker 15: if the guy's not jumping, then we're not jumping. You know,

570
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,119
Speaker 15: it could have been bad, like you said, man, just

575
00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:53,720
Speaker 14: see the ball? Did you see for a second that

576
00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 14: that mooney had a chance at catching that?

577
00:26:56,280 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 15: No, I just went up with the I knew that

578
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,480
Speaker 15: the tiding ones. I just kind of, you know, tried

579
00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,240
Speaker 15: to bar hug and make sure that he didn't have

580
00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:04,879
Speaker 15: I knew other guys was around me, but I didn't

581
00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:07,199
Speaker 15: know that. You know, it bounced off, and you know

582
00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:09,320
Speaker 15: his teammate could have could have, you know, brought it in.

583
00:27:09,440 --> 00:27:12,080
Speaker 15: But you know, for that quick second I'm going to

584
00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 15: the ground, I'm like oh. And then I hear the

585
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:16,320
Speaker 15: crowd streaming, I'm like, okay, then you know we're good.

586
00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,040
Speaker 15: And then I see the belt running away and I'm

587
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 15: like oh. Then I checked the film and it's like, man,

588
00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:22,880
Speaker 15: the guy he could have you know what I mean,

589
00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:24,359
Speaker 15: he could have caught it and brought it in. That

590
00:27:24,400 --> 00:27:26,800
Speaker 15: could have been It could have been bad, man, And

591
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:30,640
Speaker 15: we got we gotta clean that up. Man, We'll clean

592
00:27:30,680 --> 00:27:33,320
Speaker 15: it up. Watch it as a group and and see,

593
00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:35,360
Speaker 15: you know whose guy that needed to be boxed out.

594
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 15: But you know, if your guy's not jumping, man, you

595
00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:39,080
Speaker 15: shouldn't be jumping. You should be boxing out your guy

596
00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,040
Speaker 15: nextor because because you see time after time that hell

597
00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,120
Speaker 15: Mary play. That's you know, it's happened for years now.

599
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 15: right there on the other team ready to catch it

600
00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 15: after the bad ball. So you know, we need to

601
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 15: be a little cleaner to boxing out our guys.

602
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:54,480
Speaker 10: He's not jumping.

603

619
00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 12: grown up together. Yes, like they you know, I mean

620
00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,120
Speaker 12: that's part of it. Like those draft classes they have,

621
00:28:48,360 --> 00:28:52,480
Speaker 12: they are the foundation and they're they've turned into NFL

622
00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 12: dudes right before our eyes. I mean, guys who you

623
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,000
Speaker 12: wonder if what would their careers look like. Well, they're

624
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:02,120
Speaker 12: their Cleveland brown and they're part of this and there's

625
00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:03,560
Speaker 12: a belief, there's a brotherhood to it.

626
00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,160
Speaker 4: It's all very real. It's very real.

627
00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,320
Speaker 14: By the way, Browns have not lost in Cleveland since

628
00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:10,479
Speaker 14: the union of Taki Taki and Kenny Kenny, when they

629
00:29:10,520 --> 00:29:11,000
Speaker 14: came together.

630
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:12,280
Speaker 4: After that, that did it. That did it.

631
00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:16,880
Speaker 14: We can't never lost.

632
00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,440
Speaker 12: The way that that one goes. I had asked you

633
00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,160
Speaker 12: the question about Joe Flacco. I want to hear your

634
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,560
Speaker 12: answer to that and the way that he has played.

635
00:29:21,240 --> 00:29:23,360
Speaker 4: To remind me, what's the question? I don't know.

636
00:29:23,400 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 12: We'll try to make some figure of it. Coming up next,

Speaker 12: asking you the Flaco question before we were lucky enough

656
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:30,800
Speaker 12: to have si Ony Taki Taki on the program.

657
00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:35,320
Speaker 4: The throw to Amari is otherworldly. I thought the.

658
00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:38,280
Speaker 12: Play on third and fifteen on the final drive off

659
00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 12: his back foot out to Chief and then Chief. We

660
00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:43,400
Speaker 12: talked about Chief and the play he made, but like

661
00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 12: that's there just as much.

662
00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 4: I mean, he's dude.

663
00:30:47,360 --> 00:30:50,600
Speaker 12: This guy was on his couch with his kids and

664
00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 12: he's thrown for three hundred yards in three straight games,

665
00:30:52,640 --> 00:30:54,960
Speaker 12: and he went eleven or thirteen in the fourth quarter yesterday.

666
00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:56,480
Speaker 4: He's been great.

667
00:30:56,600 --> 00:30:58,520
Speaker 14: We hadn't had a three hundred yard passer before he

668
00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 14: did it last week, and now he's done it two

669
00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:02,600
Speaker 14: weeks in a row. Three What he finished at three

670
00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,440
Speaker 14: hundred and seventy in this one, Yeah, three seventy four

671
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,000
Speaker 14: I think was the final tally for him. Yeah, twenty

672
00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,280
Speaker 14: eight to forty four to three seventy four to two touchdowns,

673
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:16,160
Speaker 14: three picks, obviously, but that fourth quarter absolutely magical. And

674
00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 14: you think about some of the throws that he made,

675
00:31:18,400 --> 00:31:20,520
Speaker 14: some of the plays that he made, and here's the thing,

676
00:31:20,560 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 14: and he'll tell you he could be better than that.

677
00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 14: But one of the things you gotta give a lot

678
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:28,880
Speaker 14: of credit to is Kevin Stefanski came up with a

679
00:31:28,920 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 14: blocking scheme that allowed for these shot plays, and it

680
00:31:33,440 --> 00:31:38,200
Speaker 14: involved David Nijoku staying in and in many cases blocking

681
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 14: a defensive end until he got help from the backside

682
00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:44,360
Speaker 14: guard Michael Dunn coming around for a double team, as

683
00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:47,120
Speaker 14: they were able to move the pocket and give him

684
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,400
Speaker 14: the opportunity to make those plays. And you look at

685
00:31:49,400 --> 00:31:54,160
Speaker 14: the throw to Amari Cooper, it's almost surreal. The space

686
00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 14: that he had to make that throw was almost non existent.

687
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,240
Speaker 14: What the picture looked like at the time that he

688
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:08,760
Speaker 14: throws the ball is crazy. And yet he gets it

689
00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 14: in there. I mean, that's the picture right there you're

690
00:32:12,680 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 14: talking about. This guy is still ahead of a step

691
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 14: ahead of them Ari at the moment that it's going

692
00:32:17,160 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 14: to be thrown or where am I at?

693
00:32:18,440 --> 00:32:20,360
Speaker 4: No, Yeah, it hasn't been thrown yet, right.

694
00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,000
Speaker 14: This is the corner who's slopping off over here. You

695
00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:25,120
Speaker 14: can already see him back there, and he got the

696
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:27,560
Speaker 14: safety here. I mean, the fact that he was able

697
00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:32,240
Speaker 14: to fit that ball in there is just completely incredible.

698
00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:34,720
Speaker 14: It's one of the best throws that you will ever

699
00:32:34,840 --> 00:32:38,360
Speaker 14: see in the National Football League ever ever.

700
00:32:39,320 --> 00:32:41,000
Speaker 4: Incredible. Yeah, it's nuts.

701
00:32:41,280 --> 00:32:43,120
Speaker 14: They were so close that they ran into each other.

702
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 14: Nobody even touched Abari. There are three guys within two

703
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:47,360
Speaker 14: yard radius of.

704
00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 12: Him, the one place you could put it, and he

705
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:52,080
Speaker 12: put it in there. And he was clutched on the

706
00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,480
Speaker 12: on the throat of chief on the final final drive

707
00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,080
Speaker 12: where he's on his back feet and it's yeah, the

708
00:32:57,080 --> 00:32:57,880
Speaker 12: pressure's coming.

709
00:32:58,400 --> 00:32:58,680
Speaker 4: Mind you.

710
00:32:58,680 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 12: A little bit of the play to be honestly, the

711
00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 12: David Bell play from the week before where it was like,

712
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,320
Speaker 12: you know you're gonna get hit, it's in your face

713
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,080
Speaker 12: and you're off your back foot, and you just put

714
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:12,920
Speaker 12: it in the spot and away you go. So that's

715
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:14,400
Speaker 12: been one of the things. The other thing that's a

716
00:33:14,440 --> 00:33:17,720
Speaker 12: certainty has been Dustin Hopkins. It's the guy's unbelievable. He's

717
00:33:17,760 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 12: absolutely unbelievable. What he does week in and week out.

718
00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:22,920
Speaker 14: He's amazing. This team is amazing. I'm just watching the

719
00:33:22,960 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 14: third and fifteen again to Chief. Yeah, so he drops back,

720
00:33:27,040 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 14: he sees the preno's he's got pressure coming off of

721
00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 14: both ends, and he has to It's not an easy

722
00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:34,280
Speaker 14: throw because he couldn't just throw it on a straight

723
00:33:34,320 --> 00:33:35,920
Speaker 14: line to Chief because the linebacker was there. So we

724
00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 14: had to throw it over the linebacker, which he did.

725
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:41,560
Speaker 14: Chief goes up and gets it. Here's the thing. Chief

726
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:45,200
Speaker 14: first takes contact at the thirty eight yard line and

727
00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 14: then takes it all the way down to the eighteen

728
00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:52,080
Speaker 14: twenty yards after contact, and he's coming this season in

729
00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:54,680
Speaker 14: terms of tight ends number one in yards after contact,

730
00:33:54,960 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 14: number two in the entire NFL in yards after contact

731
00:33:58,120 --> 00:33:58,760
Speaker 14: per reception.

732
00:33:59,680 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 4: It's just it's incredible. It's incredible.

733
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:02,880
Speaker 14: For Flacco to deal the wait it and he had

734
00:34:02,920 --> 00:34:06,600
Speaker 14: two hot stretches. So you said he was eleven of

735
00:34:06,680 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 14: thirteen even thirteen in the fourth course. So I'm gonna

736
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:11,800
Speaker 14: do some quick math here. I'm let me scrib a

737
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:12,759
Speaker 14: little math out, all right.

738
00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:13,960
Speaker 4: So he was eleven of.

739
00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,760
Speaker 14: Thirteen there in the fourth quarter. He had a stretch

740
00:34:17,800 --> 00:34:21,160
Speaker 14: where in the second quarter after the interception, he completed

741
00:34:21,239 --> 00:34:24,279
Speaker 14: nine of his next ten passes. So if you do that,

742
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:28,640
Speaker 14: we're talking, that's twenty out of twenty three. So that

743
00:34:28,719 --> 00:34:33,279
Speaker 14: means he was eight of nineteen, eight of I'm sorry,

744
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:36,600
Speaker 14: eight of twenty one on the other when it.

745
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:37,319
Speaker 4: Was wasn't good.

746
00:34:37,480 --> 00:34:42,479
Speaker 14: Yeah, but he had basically two incredibly hot stretches, two

747
00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,960
Speaker 14: incredibly cold stretches.

748
00:34:45,200 --> 00:34:46,840
Speaker 4: But he was the right time.

749
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:49,359
Speaker 14: Well, they say, you know, as the Rock said, when

750
00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 14: he went to Hollywood, one of the things they taught

751
00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:52,640
Speaker 14: him is that, you know, it's not about act one

752
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:56,400
Speaker 14: or act two, it's about act three, yeah, in this case,

753
00:34:56,520 --> 00:34:59,800
Speaker 14: or in act four, to take it to a quarter's analogy.

754
00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:03,000
Speaker 14: That's that's the go home. And that's what he did.

755
00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,360
Speaker 14: He was at his best when the Browns needed.

756
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:06,200
Speaker 4: It the most.

757
00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:09,560
Speaker 14: Just an incredible, incredible job. First time we've had two

758
00:35:09,719 --> 00:35:12,400
Speaker 14: one hundred plus yard receivers in ten years, in a

759
00:35:12,480 --> 00:35:17,040
Speaker 14: decade since December eight, twenty thirteen, Josh Gordon and Jordan Cameron.

760
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:21,200
Speaker 4: Good lord, it's unbelievable. Seems unbelievable.

761
00:35:21,400 --> 00:35:21,600
Speaker 6: It is.

762
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 4: It's too fun.

763
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 12: Here's where you stand in the playoff picture. You are

764
00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:29,120
Speaker 12: the five seed, which would mean a matchup with Jacksonville,

765
00:35:29,120 --> 00:35:32,560
Speaker 12: which we just saw those guys bring down in Jacksonville.

766
00:35:32,560 --> 00:35:34,760
Speaker 12: Would be the matchup at Sands right now. Jacksonville's reeling,

767
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,840
Speaker 12: they've lost a couple in a row. You would be

768
00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:41,360
Speaker 12: the five, Cincinnati, the six, the Colts, the seven looking

769
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:45,120
Speaker 12: up at Jacksonville, Kansas City, Miami and Baltimore. If the

770
00:35:45,800 --> 00:35:48,520
Speaker 12: Jaguars could have beaten which neither one of us. Scores

771
00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:49,920
Speaker 12: were very good to us, by the way.

772
00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,160
Speaker 14: By the way, so we got ten, yeah, ten and

773
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:57,600
Speaker 14: five right now, River Yeah went eleven and four.

774
00:35:57,760 --> 00:35:59,640
Speaker 4: Miss Z went eleven and four. Miss Z went god

775
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:02,000
Speaker 4: bless eleven and four, I mean out of the gate.

776
00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,720
Speaker 14: So we had a couple differences that we had talked about,

777
00:36:05,320 --> 00:36:07,520
Speaker 14: and she went on her own. Sometimes I'm trying to

778
00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,279
Speaker 14: of course, the excel is not working right now.

779
00:36:09,320 --> 00:36:11,440
Speaker 4: But yeah, but it's a very good week, a great week.

780
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:12,080
Speaker 6: Great.

781
00:36:12,239 --> 00:36:15,239
Speaker 12: If Jacksonville could have taken care of Baltimore last night,

782
00:36:15,320 --> 00:36:17,040
Speaker 12: which it felt like they could have, which it felt

783
00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,160
Speaker 12: like it was in play, but they didn't, the North

784
00:36:20,200 --> 00:36:21,560
Speaker 12: would still very much be in play.

785
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:24,040
Speaker 4: It's not officially out of play, but it's very unlikely.

786
00:36:24,320 --> 00:36:24,759
Speaker 4: Here's why.

787
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:26,920
Speaker 12: If Jacksonville wins last night, it would have been critical.

788
00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:29,879
Speaker 12: Here are the Ravens final three games. They finish at

789
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:35,000
Speaker 12: San Francisco, Miami, and Pittsburgh. Okay, nobody's beating San Francisco

790
00:36:35,080 --> 00:36:39,279
Speaker 12: right now, so they play those three teams. Miami will

791
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:40,799
Speaker 12: have a lot on that game too, with that game

792
00:36:40,800 --> 00:36:44,000
Speaker 12: against Baltimore obviously, So if they would have lost last night,

793
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:45,719
Speaker 12: had been ten and four and we were a game out,

794
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 12: winning the division would have been very real. Instead, you're

795
00:36:48,640 --> 00:36:52,360
Speaker 12: two games out, and in terms of the other teams

796
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,600
Speaker 12: around US, obviously we go Houston, the Jets, and the Bengals.

797
00:36:56,840 --> 00:36:59,440
Speaker 12: It's the easiest stretch run of any of the teams

798
00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 12: in the mix. Is the schedule ahead of US. Cincinnati's

799
00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:08,200
Speaker 12: is Pittsburgh at Kansas City US. That's how Cincinnati closes

800
00:37:08,239 --> 00:37:11,439
Speaker 12: it out. Buffalo is the team nobody in the AFC

801
00:37:11,520 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 12: wants to play. I don't know if they can get in.

802
00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:18,360
Speaker 12: They're nine and six. They are probably gonna have to

803
00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,160
Speaker 12: win out there. I'm sorry, they're eight and six. They're

804
00:37:21,160 --> 00:37:23,200
Speaker 12: probably gonna have to get to eleven wins because they

805
00:37:23,200 --> 00:37:25,120
Speaker 12: do not have tie breakers with any anybody.

806
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:26,239
Speaker 4: So if they have.

807
00:37:26,200 --> 00:37:29,040
Speaker 12: The same record as as the Texans, the Colts, the

808
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,080
Speaker 12: Bengals are us no tiebreaker.

809
00:37:32,640 --> 00:37:35,120
Speaker 14: That's their situations, who right now are maybe in danger

810
00:37:35,160 --> 00:37:36,520
Speaker 14: of falling out of the.

811
00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:38,759
Speaker 4: Lead, right yeah.

812
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 12: But in order for that, I mean the Texans in

813
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 12: them are tied. Oh yeah, because the Texans the Colts,

814
00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:45,239
Speaker 12: so they're tied and the Colts are tied there. They're

815
00:37:45,239 --> 00:37:47,839
Speaker 12: all eight and six, but Jacksonville has a tiebreaker there,

816
00:37:48,360 --> 00:37:51,040
Speaker 12: so they they have the tiebreaker in the in the

817
00:37:51,120 --> 00:37:53,200
Speaker 12: in the AFC South, and all those teams play each

818
00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,759
Speaker 12: other in the South. So you're there. You're gonna get

819
00:37:56,800 --> 00:37:59,759
Speaker 12: some clarity there. But you are in a very good

820
00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 12: spot with the Cleveland Browns. Ten is the number. Eleven

821
00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:05,799
Speaker 12: is beyond. But if you can win one of your

822
00:38:05,800 --> 00:38:07,680
Speaker 12: next three, it's very you're gonna be in the postseason.

823
00:38:07,680 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 12: I feel very confident with that, it's hard to imagine

824
00:38:09,719 --> 00:38:11,480
Speaker 12: the scenario where the rest of these teams get this done.

825
00:38:11,719 --> 00:38:14,200
Speaker 12: Part of that's because Pittsburgh was swun by Andy. The

826
00:38:14,280 --> 00:38:17,839
Speaker 12: Broncos lost big by Detroit over the weekend, so they're

827
00:38:17,960 --> 00:38:19,799
Speaker 12: kind of on the outside looking in. And you're in

828
00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 12: a very good spot to be a good seed and

829
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,600
Speaker 12: you're not gonna do better than being the five. I mean,

830
00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:27,719
Speaker 12: that's ideal to be the five and play South.

831
00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:30,320
Speaker 4: That's the best. And you're gonna get a preview of

832
00:38:30,360 --> 00:38:32,000
Speaker 4: that this weekend with Houston. Yeah, that's where.

833
00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:33,560
Speaker 14: That's where you want to be, and you're gonna have

834
00:38:33,600 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 14: to go on the road and take care of that business.

835
00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,680
Speaker 14: But certainly this team is capable of doing so. So

836
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:41,200
Speaker 14: I got the scores here. It is so we had

837
00:38:41,920 --> 00:38:44,760
Speaker 14: I had Detroit and miss Z had Detroit. You had Denver.

838
00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,520
Speaker 14: Then you and Missy both had Miami. I had the Jets.

839
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:49,120
Speaker 14: What was do over?

840
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:49,520
Speaker 4: Please?

841
00:38:50,440 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 14: Miss Z and I both had Houston over Tennessee. So

842
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:57,719
Speaker 14: she started off six of six foiled. All of us

843
00:38:57,719 --> 00:39:02,120
Speaker 14: were foiled by the Giants in Atlanta. She took to England,

844
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,719
Speaker 14: which was really her only that's our only blemish that one,

845
00:39:05,719 --> 00:39:07,440
Speaker 14: and then she didn't Green Bay. We all had Green

846
00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:09,000
Speaker 14: Bay and so we all missed Green Bay. But other

847
00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:12,640
Speaker 14: than that, then she ran off Niners Rams, Buffalo, Baltimore

848
00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:13,640
Speaker 14: Browns crush.

849
00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:17,600
Speaker 4: That's pretty imp It's magic in here. There's something well.

850
00:39:17,560 --> 00:39:21,520
Speaker 12: She's look, no dummy, she followed us, yes and these

851
00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:23,520
Speaker 12: that's let's she went on her own on only.

852
00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 4: One, I think right, and she did a good job

853
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:31,400
Speaker 4: job of navigating both of us. Yeah job, Yeah.

854

877
00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 13: Don't really have a major injury updates, guys, everybody's basically

878
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:50,520
Speaker 13: day to day there, you know. At the the game itself,

879
00:40:50,840 --> 00:40:52,960
Speaker 13: you know, just like I talked about yesterday, very proud

880
00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,640
Speaker 13: of the effort, Proud of the guys that came in

881
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 13: both during the week and then in the game step

882
00:41:00,440 --> 00:41:04,759
Speaker 13: up for the team. I thought was outstanding defensively, you know,

883
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,120
Speaker 13: really so much good stuff out there.

884
00:41:07,880 --> 00:41:08,560
Speaker 18: They had that.

885
00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:11,080
Speaker 13: One field goal drive and then I know we can

886
00:41:11,080 --> 00:41:13,160
Speaker 13: play a little bit better at the end of each half,

887
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:16,600
Speaker 13: but man, there was some really dominant defense out there

888
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:20,239
Speaker 13: for a vast, vast majority of the game. Then offensively

889
00:41:20,480 --> 00:41:23,520
Speaker 13: just to come through in that fourth quarter we needed it.

890
00:41:24,560 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 13: Joe made some big plays down the field to the

891
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,919
Speaker 13: guys and again made plays when we had to make them.

892
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,879
Speaker 13: And then special teams, you know, playing at a high level,

893
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,720
Speaker 13: and then Dustin coming through again, and you know Dustin

894
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:40,520
Speaker 13: coming through, the protection, coming through, the operation, coming through.

895
00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:43,120
Speaker 13: So proud of the guys, and then we got to

896
00:41:43,160 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 13: turn our attention very quickly to a very good Houston team.

897
00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:48,360
Speaker 13: But with that, I'll take any questions.

898
00:41:48,560 --> 00:41:52,040
Speaker 19: Hey, Kevin, you mentioned the dominant defense. Is there something

899
00:41:52,120 --> 00:41:54,040
Speaker 19: I get to questions? But is there something that you're

900
00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,759
Speaker 19: most proud of or impressed by what they did yesterday?

901
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:00,439
Speaker 13: You know, I'd say a few things, Scott, but guys

902
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:03,880
Speaker 13: stepping up those safeties. You know, with Ronnie and Anthony

903
00:42:03,920 --> 00:42:08,879
Speaker 13: Bell playing for extended time, you know, Darron Harmon comeing

904
00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:13,960
Speaker 13: in there for us, you know, that was obviously important

905
00:42:13,960 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 13: for those guys to step up. And I think you

906
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:19,480
Speaker 13: just saw a bunch of guys making plays all all

907
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:20,240
Speaker 13: over that tape.

908
00:42:20,800 --> 00:42:23,840
Speaker 19: And then with Miles, I still think, you know, I

909
00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,120
Speaker 19: don't think you got any calls yesterday, So how frustrating

910
00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,719
Speaker 19: is that? And then just how's he playing overall despite

911
00:42:29,680 --> 00:42:30,520
Speaker 19: not having the sex.

912
00:42:31,440 --> 00:42:35,000
Speaker 13: Yeah, I mean he's frustrated and frustrated when he's getting

913
00:42:35,040 --> 00:42:38,759
Speaker 13: held and that's something that will continue to talk to

914
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:40,799
Speaker 13: the officials about. And then I understand that that's a

915
00:42:40,840 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 13: tough gig, but I do think it's something that we

916
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,080
Speaker 13: need to make sure that is addressed.

917
00:42:47,719 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 18: You know.

918
00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:52,919
Speaker 13: With that in mind, the way Miles is playing is unbelievable.

919
00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:55,760
Speaker 13: I mean, if I can, I'll get on the soapbox

920
00:42:55,800 --> 00:42:59,000
Speaker 13: here for a second. But he's the best player on

921
00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:02,880
Speaker 13: the best defense in the league right now, and go

922
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,600
Speaker 13: put the tape on. Watch play number four and watch

923
00:43:05,640 --> 00:43:08,080
Speaker 13: how he is a game of three. But watch how

924
00:43:08,120 --> 00:43:10,080
Speaker 13: they try to block him. He won't be denied, gets

925
00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,200
Speaker 13: the guy on the ground, And I think what happens

926
00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:15,160
Speaker 13: with with our game, we get so wrapped up in sacks.

927
00:43:16,040 --> 00:43:17,680
Speaker 13: He makes a play on a cracked toss late in

928
00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,960
Speaker 13: the game for that loses six yards and if it's

929
00:43:20,960 --> 00:43:23,399
Speaker 13: a sack it, you know, people think it's adds to

930
00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,600
Speaker 13: the statistics or whatever. He's dominant as a defensive player,

931
00:43:27,680 --> 00:43:30,439
Speaker 13: so he's a defensive Player of the Year. I don't

932
00:43:30,440 --> 00:43:33,759
Speaker 13: think it's close. And and he's going to finish strong

933
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:36,160
Speaker 13: for this football team. But to get so wrapped up

934
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 13: as we do as a football society when it comes

935
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:42,240
Speaker 13: to sacks, I mean, just talk about the guy that

936
00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:44,720
Speaker 13: that affects the game, that pressures, the quarterback that plays

937
00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:47,120
Speaker 13: the run, that plays with unbelievable effort.

938
00:43:47,520 --> 00:43:49,640
Speaker 18: I don't know, I don't know that there's anybody in

939
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:52,399
Speaker 18: the same uh same realm as him.

940
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,399
Speaker 20: Yeah, Kevin, a lot of positives, but the running game,

941
00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:57,239
Speaker 20: you know, continues to struggle. I know you got a

942
00:43:57,320 --> 00:44:00,919
Speaker 20: lot of guys down, But you know, do you see

943
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:03,279
Speaker 20: things you know on the film that you can do

944
00:44:03,400 --> 00:44:06,160
Speaker 20: better to get that kind of infused so you're not

945
00:44:06,360 --> 00:44:08,759
Speaker 20: forced to throw fifty times every game.

946
00:44:09,080 --> 00:44:11,120
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, we look at it, Fred. We're just

947
00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:14,760
Speaker 13: trying to do whatever whatever we can to win a game. Obviously,

948
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:16,239
Speaker 13: we want to run the ball better or we want

949
00:44:16,239 --> 00:44:18,880
Speaker 13: to run it more efficiently. That was a good front

950
00:44:19,080 --> 00:44:22,359
Speaker 13: that we went up against yesterday. So we'll always look

951
00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:24,919
Speaker 13: at it and find different ways to get the ball

952
00:44:25,160 --> 00:44:28,240
Speaker 13: in our playmaker's hands, and that certainly includes our runners.

953
00:44:28,400 --> 00:44:31,719
Speaker 9: Hey, Kevin, it's one thing to say, next man up

954
00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:33,759
Speaker 9: and let's go one to know a weeke in and

955
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 9: week out and but you've gotten such a buy in

956
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,239
Speaker 9: from this group. Why do you think that is?

957
00:44:38,600 --> 00:44:42,200
Speaker 13: Yeah, I think our guys understand, you know, the realities

958
00:44:42,239 --> 00:44:44,760
Speaker 13: of this game. We don't spend a lot of time

959
00:44:45,440 --> 00:44:48,080
Speaker 13: in the wood a Kulda shoulda world, just deal with

960
00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:49,680
Speaker 13: what's in front of us. And I think that's a

961
00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:52,440
Speaker 13: testament to the leadership from the players.

962
00:44:52,640 --> 00:44:54,759
Speaker 9: And Joe obviously turned it on in the fourth quarter

963
00:44:54,880 --> 00:44:58,160
Speaker 9: yesterday through three quarters though, did you did you see

964
00:44:58,160 --> 00:45:00,759
Speaker 9: I think he was, you know, seeing the the way

965
00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:03,960
Speaker 9: he needed to and just some some unfortunate plays not

966
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:04,600
Speaker 9: going his way.

967
00:45:04,960 --> 00:45:07,320
Speaker 13: Yeah, that's what I would say. You know, he sees

968
00:45:07,360 --> 00:45:09,120
Speaker 13: it well, he always has.

969
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:10,279
Speaker 6: You know.

970
00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:12,720
Speaker 18: I'd give credit to the Bears. They made some place.

971
00:45:13,040 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 16: Hey, Kevin, I know I saw the quote in the

972
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,359
Speaker 16: post game yesterday when you said you blacked out on.

973
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 4: That last place.

974
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,920
Speaker 16: So I'm just wondering watching it back what your reaction

975
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:23,560
Speaker 16: was and what you saw there in that final sequence.

976
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,080
Speaker 13: Yeah, you know, we didn't play that exactly how we

977
00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,600
Speaker 13: want to, Ashley. So there that's where you talk about

978
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:31,000
Speaker 13: some of the things. We did a lot of really

979
00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:32,839
Speaker 13: good things, but there's things we have to clean up.

980
00:45:33,520 --> 00:45:36,680
Speaker 13: And you know, you start playing in these games and

981
00:45:36,719 --> 00:45:39,040
Speaker 13: then they are big games, in these big moments, in

982
00:45:39,080 --> 00:45:40,359
Speaker 13: these big games, you got to come through.

983
00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,400
Speaker 18: So there are definitely things that we can clean up

984
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:42,879
Speaker 18: on that play.

985
00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:44,600
Speaker 16: And then I know I asked you about j Okay

986
00:45:44,640 --> 00:45:46,720
Speaker 16: last week, but since we're supposed to hear from him today,

987
00:45:46,800 --> 00:45:48,799
Speaker 16: I mean, how big is a play like that sack

988
00:45:48,880 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 16: he gets for the loss of seven on second and

989
00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:52,880
Speaker 16: seven or loss of eleven and second and seven in

990
00:45:52,920 --> 00:45:55,480
Speaker 16: the fourth quarter, you know, to kind of halt that

991
00:45:55,600 --> 00:45:57,560
Speaker 16: drive for you guys, and what that play kind of

992
00:45:57,560 --> 00:45:58,120
Speaker 16: says about him?

993
00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:01,360
Speaker 18: Yeah, he was all over the field, Ashley in that game.

994
00:46:01,880 --> 00:46:04,600
Speaker 13: He's played really good football for us all season long,

995
00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,400
Speaker 13: but in that game, he was all over the place,

996
00:46:07,520 --> 00:46:11,320
Speaker 13: making high impact plays in some really important moments.

997
00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:14,800
Speaker 21: Yeah, Kevin, I know you spoke about David Nijoku after

998
00:46:14,840 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 21: the game, and I saw your speech in the locker

999
00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:19,759
Speaker 21: room where you have presented him the game ball. He's

1000
00:46:19,760 --> 00:46:22,600
Speaker 21: not a guy that gets a lot of national attention

1001
00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:25,719
Speaker 21: when you talk about tight ends that put up big

1002
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,480
Speaker 21: numbers and things like that, But just what is his

1003
00:46:28,680 --> 00:46:32,799
Speaker 21: growth and you know, just what he's brought to this

1004
00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:37,600
Speaker 21: football team meant to you as a coach over these

1005
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:38,759
Speaker 21: last four years.

1006
00:46:39,160 --> 00:46:39,359
Speaker 18: Yeah.

1007
00:46:39,400 --> 00:46:42,840
Speaker 13: Well, to the first part Daryl about not getting attention nationally,

1008
00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:46,399
Speaker 13: I mean, there can't be many better than him when

1009
00:46:46,400 --> 00:46:48,879
Speaker 13: you talk about complete tight ends, whether it's the run

1010
00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,640
Speaker 13: in the past, and you know, I've seen him grow

1011
00:46:52,719 --> 00:46:56,120
Speaker 13: certainly as a player in our time together. But he's

1012
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:59,439
Speaker 13: a dynamic football player. And then the piece about off

1013
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:02,480
Speaker 13: the field, think he's an incredible teammate. He's a positive

1014
00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:06,200
Speaker 13: force in this building, both on the practice field, in

1015
00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:08,120
Speaker 13: the locker room, on the game field.

1016
00:47:08,120 --> 00:47:10,880
Speaker 18: He brings such great energy to this team.

1017
00:47:11,920 --> 00:47:14,719
Speaker 13: And when I say that specifically, you know he picks

1018
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:16,600
Speaker 13: his teammates up more than anybody in our team.

1019
00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 18: I should take that back. Poe probably has him close.

1020
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:22,560
Speaker 13: But if you watch our tape, watch who the first

1021
00:47:22,560 --> 00:47:25,279
Speaker 13: guy down is picking his teammates up, and that's you know,

1022
00:47:25,320 --> 00:47:28,080
Speaker 13: we make a big deal of that. Alex Van Pelt

1023
00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,800
Speaker 13: does an awesome job with the offense. He actually tracks

1024
00:47:30,800 --> 00:47:34,480
Speaker 13: pickups and whoever leads the game leads that week gets

1025
00:47:34,480 --> 00:47:37,400
Speaker 13: a toy pickup truck and Dave's won it a bunch,

1026
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,319
Speaker 13: Poe's won it. Jerome Ford does a great job. But

1027
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:44,279
Speaker 13: I just think Dave the teammate that he's become and

1028
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:47,480
Speaker 13: I've seen I've got to watch it firsthand here over

1029
00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:51,600
Speaker 13: the last four years, but unbelievably positive force for this football.

1030
00:47:51,600 --> 00:47:54,000
Speaker 12: All Right, there you go, Kevin Sevanski from the podium.

1046
00:48:57,360 --> 00:49:01,719
Speaker 12: Joe Thomas half hour of the program, HAF I don't

1047
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:03,600
Speaker 12: know how they're doing it. Man, It's magic. It's the

1048
00:49:03,640 --> 00:49:05,759
Speaker 12: most unbelievable thing, the way this team is pulling out

1049
00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:08,719
Speaker 12: wins week in and week out. This week one on

1050
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:11,279
Speaker 12: Sunday was just the latest. What are your impressions of

1051
00:49:11,560 --> 00:49:13,319
Speaker 12: another miraculous win down by the Lake?

1052
00:49:13,560 --> 00:49:16,279
Speaker 22: Miraculous is the right way to put it, because it's

1053
00:49:16,320 --> 00:49:19,040
Speaker 22: just impossible to imagine the different ways that they're winning

1054
00:49:19,040 --> 00:49:23,920
Speaker 22: these games. And I think the performance Flacco just reflects

1055
00:49:24,120 --> 00:49:27,240
Speaker 22: what's going on with the Browns, like everything just doesn't

1056
00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,560
Speaker 22: look like it's working. And all of a sudden, he

1057
00:49:29,640 --> 00:49:32,759
Speaker 22: fires a sixty yard pass perfectly down the field at

1058
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:35,880
Speaker 22: rainbows and drops right into the bucket. Amari Cooper catches

1059
00:49:35,920 --> 00:49:38,200
Speaker 22: the football, runs down the sideline, and you score, and

1060
00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:39,120
Speaker 22: all of a sudden, you're.

1061
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,200
Speaker 6: Going, oh my gosh, we might win this game.

1062
00:49:41,600 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 22: And it's just the improbable different ways that they're finding

1063
00:49:45,560 --> 00:49:48,240
Speaker 22: to be able to win. I think builds a belief

1064
00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:50,640
Speaker 22: not only with the fan base, but with this team

1065
00:49:50,719 --> 00:49:53,279
Speaker 22: that no matter what the scorers or what the situation is,

1066
00:49:53,719 --> 00:49:55,239
Speaker 22: they're going to find a way to win. And I

1067
00:49:55,320 --> 00:49:57,280
Speaker 22: think that's really powerful down the stretch.

1068
00:49:57,640 --> 00:50:00,880
Speaker 14: HAF, what did you think of Kevin Stefans And at

1069
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:03,840
Speaker 14: the time, we knew, look, it was tough to protect Montes.

1070
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,560
Speaker 14: Sweat was having a monster day. We're down, you know,

1071
00:50:06,640 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 14: four of our five starting offensive lineman when Antonio comes out,

1072
00:50:09,440 --> 00:50:11,960
Speaker 14: but he knew they had to still take some shots.

1073
00:50:12,640 --> 00:50:14,440
Speaker 14: And the way that he was able to scheme it

1074
00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:16,279
Speaker 14: up tell us kind of what this protection is called

1075
00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:18,400
Speaker 14: and how they do it. But if you watch the

1076
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:22,800
Speaker 14: touchdown to Amari and you watch the bomb to Marquis Goodwin,

1077
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:27,879
Speaker 14: they had Chief block the front side end and then

1078
00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,960
Speaker 14: had the backside guard, Michael Dunn, come across and they

1079
00:50:31,080 --> 00:50:33,640
Speaker 14: kind of moved the pocket a little bit in essence

1080
00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:37,080
Speaker 14: double team that end, and that got Flaco the time,

1081
00:50:37,160 --> 00:50:39,000
Speaker 14: that kind of a shift from a straight drop back

1082
00:50:39,040 --> 00:50:41,480
Speaker 14: but doing something creative there, and they did that work

1083
00:50:41,600 --> 00:50:43,880
Speaker 14: both on the big one, the Goodwin and the touchdown

1084
00:50:43,880 --> 00:50:44,360
Speaker 14: to Amari.

1085
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:46,200
Speaker 22: Yeah, I think it's really cool. It's not really a

1086
00:50:46,239 --> 00:50:48,680
Speaker 22: protection that you see all that often, and I'm trying

1087
00:50:48,719 --> 00:50:52,600
Speaker 22: to remember back other than like just some unique special

1088
00:50:52,680 --> 00:50:56,680
Speaker 22: shot play, it's not really a protection that's normally in

1089
00:50:56,719 --> 00:51:00,080
Speaker 22: your blocking schemes. Because if they blitz into that or

1090
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,840
Speaker 22: if they run something funky like, it's really hard to

1091
00:51:02,840 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 22: pick up because you have so many different moving parts

1092
00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:07,280
Speaker 22: and you've got a guard that's pulling and it's hard

1093
00:51:07,320 --> 00:51:08,640
Speaker 22: to adjust that type of stuff.

1094
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:09,920
Speaker 6: So typically, if you.

1095
00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,600
Speaker 22: Did have something where you were pinning and pulling and

1096
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:15,399
Speaker 22: trying to pass protect, if there was any goofy, look,

1097
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:18,480
Speaker 22: it just turns into a straight dropback protection because it's

1098
00:51:18,480 --> 00:51:20,440
Speaker 22: almost impossible to pick up when.

1099
00:51:20,239 --> 00:51:22,080
Speaker 6: They bring something out of the ordinary.

1100
00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:26,480
Speaker 22: But I think kudos to Kevin Stefanski because he realized

1101
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,920
Speaker 22: that the offensive line just was not capable of blocking

1102
00:51:30,040 --> 00:51:33,880
Speaker 22: drop back protections against that defensive front. But you needed

1103
00:51:33,880 --> 00:51:35,840
Speaker 22: to find a way to get some shots down the field,

1104
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:38,480
Speaker 22: not only because of the situation in the game. But

1105
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:41,799
Speaker 22: that's who Joe Flacco has always been his entire career,

1106
00:51:41,800 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 22: and that's who he is right now. He is one

1107
00:51:44,200 --> 00:51:48,799
Speaker 22: of the best deep ball throwers of this generation. His

1108
00:51:48,920 --> 00:51:52,120
Speaker 22: underneath stuff's been okay at times, has been really good.

1109
00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,759
Speaker 22: Yesterday was not the best in the world. But he's

1110
00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:56,879
Speaker 22: such a weapon because to be able to just drop

1111
00:51:56,920 --> 00:51:58,880
Speaker 22: the ball and the bucket sixty yards down the field

1112
00:51:59,320 --> 00:52:02,560
Speaker 22: any is really tough for a defense to be able

1113
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,359
Speaker 22: to handle, because eventually he's going to nail a few

1114
00:52:05,360 --> 00:52:07,360
Speaker 22: of those. And when you got guys like Goodwin, you

1115
00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,880
Speaker 22: got guys like Amari Cooper, like they're a threat to

1116
00:52:09,880 --> 00:52:13,600
Speaker 22: ticket sixty seventy eighty yards at any given point in

1117
00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:17,560
Speaker 22: the game, and that really keeps the pressure on the defense.

1118
00:52:17,640 --> 00:52:19,680
Speaker 22: So to be able to find a way to get

1119
00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:23,080
Speaker 22: that protection that you need outside of just play action,

1120
00:52:23,200 --> 00:52:25,279
Speaker 22: which is not quite as effective when you're losing and

1121
00:52:25,280 --> 00:52:27,800
Speaker 22: you're having a hard time running the football, but finding

1122
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:31,279
Speaker 22: that protection, dialing up and then executing and getting the

1123
00:52:31,280 --> 00:52:33,839
Speaker 22: ball down the field. Kudos to that offensive staff and

1124
00:52:33,920 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 22: Kevin Stevanski finding the right time to be able to

1125
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:39,240
Speaker 22: pull up that type of a protection and that throat

1126
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:39,800
Speaker 22: on the field.

1127
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:43,320
Speaker 12: Haf It's been this run here to get to nine wins.

1128
00:52:43,320 --> 00:52:46,280
Speaker 12: It's been four different quarterbacks of one games, four different

1129
00:52:46,520 --> 00:52:50,239
Speaker 12: fourth quarter comebacks from quarterbacks to win games. Zee and

1130
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:52,279
Speaker 12: I were talking earlier in the show, though, like you're

1131
00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 12: not here, and this is not to take away from

1132
00:52:55,760 --> 00:52:57,560
Speaker 12: the others who have tried to do it, You're not

1133
00:52:57,560 --> 00:52:59,800
Speaker 12: in a position that you are in right now without Flacco.

1134
00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:04,560
Speaker 12: There's something there's a professionalism about it. There's there's something

1135
00:53:04,560 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 12: that comes with it that he has that's different, and

1136
00:53:07,640 --> 00:53:09,279
Speaker 12: I think it changes what this team can be in

1137
00:53:09,280 --> 00:53:12,200
Speaker 12: the postseason as well. How do you see Flacco's importance.

1138
00:53:12,239 --> 00:53:13,880
Speaker 12: I realize it's just three games, but it feels like

1139
00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:14,560
Speaker 12: it's more than that.

1140
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:16,080
Speaker 6: Well, we've been seeing him for a while.

1141
00:53:16,280 --> 00:53:19,120
Speaker 22: I mean, he came into the AFC North in two

1142
00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:20,920
Speaker 22: thousand and eight, the year after I did.

1143
00:53:21,520 --> 00:53:21,600
Speaker 18: So.

1144
00:53:22,440 --> 00:53:24,120
Speaker 22: When I have a hard time getting off the couch

1145
00:53:24,160 --> 00:53:26,600
Speaker 22: to grab a second beer in the first half of

1146
00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:28,359
Speaker 22: the game there and I see him out there playing,

1147
00:53:28,400 --> 00:53:30,239
Speaker 22: I'm going, man, I don't know how this guy's getting

1148
00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,120
Speaker 22: up from those shots, like the one he took right

1149
00:53:33,239 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 22: in the stomach, I mean, hit him right in his belt.

1150
00:53:36,040 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 22: It was like the old magic trick when you saw

1151
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 22: the assistant in half.

1152
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:42,480
Speaker 6: That's what it looked like. He's getting hit.

1153
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:43,960
Speaker 22: I'm like, oh my gosh, how's he going to get

1154
00:53:44,000 --> 00:53:46,439
Speaker 22: up from this? He's thirty eight years old, But he does,

1155
00:53:46,480 --> 00:53:50,239
Speaker 22: And I think that gives a lot of inspiration to

1156
00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:52,319
Speaker 22: this team. They're they're looking at a guy like that

1157
00:53:52,440 --> 00:53:56,200
Speaker 22: who came off his couch just three four weeks ago

1158
00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,640
Speaker 22: to be your starter and he's taking hits, but I

1159
00:53:59,719 --> 00:54:01,160
Speaker 22: like it steadiness in his calm.

1160
00:54:01,200 --> 00:54:02,880
Speaker 6: And I'm a little biased because that's kind of how

1161
00:54:02,920 --> 00:54:03,799
Speaker 6: I was during the game.

1162
00:54:03,800 --> 00:54:06,480
Speaker 22: You know, on the sideline, you didn't know if Flacco

1163
00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:08,440
Speaker 22: had just thrown a touchdown pass or if he just

1164
00:54:08,480 --> 00:54:09,320
Speaker 22: threw an interception.

1165
00:54:09,719 --> 00:54:10,440
Speaker 6: The way he's just.

1166
00:54:10,400 --> 00:54:13,799
Speaker 22: Got that cool demeanor on the sideline, and I think

1167
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:16,719
Speaker 22: offensively it's really important, especially with some of the young

1168
00:54:16,760 --> 00:54:18,279
Speaker 22: guys and some of the new guys that are coming

1169
00:54:18,320 --> 00:54:20,759
Speaker 22: out there, especially on the offensive line. I mean, four

1170
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:24,239
Speaker 22: of the five guys right now, we're not starters at

1171
00:54:24,239 --> 00:54:26,799
Speaker 22: the beginning of the season, and to have a calm,

1172
00:54:27,000 --> 00:54:31,000
Speaker 22: cool presence at quarterback is so important, to just steady

1173
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,400
Speaker 22: the ship because the waters are going to be a

1174
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:36,280
Speaker 22: little rough when you're playing December football in the NFL

1175
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:39,399
Speaker 22: and then hopefully on a playoff run like, it's not

1176
00:54:39,480 --> 00:54:41,760
Speaker 22: just going to always be smooth sailing, and so having

1177
00:54:41,800 --> 00:54:45,280
Speaker 22: that even keel and steady hand at quarterback is huge.

1178
00:54:45,520 --> 00:54:47,600
Speaker 14: I mean, we talked about it earlier. Haf he had

1179
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:50,520
Speaker 14: a stretch after that led to the first touchdown where

1180
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:52,840
Speaker 14: he went nine for ten, and then he finishes in

1181
00:54:52,880 --> 00:54:55,040
Speaker 14: the fourth quarter eleven of thirteen for two hundred and

1182
00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,600
Speaker 14: fourteen yards and the most that anybody's thrown four in

1183
00:54:57,640 --> 00:55:00,680
Speaker 14: a fourth quarter in the league this season, and that

1184
00:55:01,120 --> 00:55:03,759
Speaker 14: it's clear he can still get hot. And when he

1185
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:06,160
Speaker 14: gets hot, boy, he throws a beautiful ball. That ball

1186
00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:08,480
Speaker 14: to Amari as good a throw as you'll see. And

1187
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:11,680
Speaker 14: then even third and fifteen, floating back gets it out

1188
00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:14,239
Speaker 14: to the chief. You know, you got Flackel, but you

1189
00:55:14,360 --> 00:55:16,920
Speaker 14: got I'm already making place chief making plays.

1190
00:55:17,520 --> 00:55:18,960
Speaker 4: It's just fun to watch this offense.

1191
00:55:18,960 --> 00:55:21,360
Speaker 14: But there's something clearly to the belief that if I

1192
00:55:21,360 --> 00:55:22,960
Speaker 14: get open, this guy can put the ball on me.

1193
00:55:23,120 --> 00:55:23,279
Speaker 6: Yeah.

1194
00:55:23,280 --> 00:55:25,400
Speaker 22: And I think that's the difference between some of the

1195
00:55:25,440 --> 00:55:28,439
Speaker 22: other guys that came in there after Deshaun got hurt

1196
00:55:28,560 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 22: is you know, you're almost trying to protect those other

1197
00:55:31,120 --> 00:55:35,319
Speaker 22: young guys that are playing. You had the feeling that

1198
00:55:35,600 --> 00:55:37,879
Speaker 22: they couldn't really do a lot of the stuff, and

1199
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:40,200
Speaker 22: you were just trying to call a game where they

1200
00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:44,359
Speaker 22: didn't make any turnovers. And I think that's a tough

1201
00:55:44,360 --> 00:55:47,200
Speaker 22: way to go through the game, and especially for your

1202
00:55:47,239 --> 00:55:52,240
Speaker 22: big time playmakers, it's a real challenge when you've got

1203
00:55:52,360 --> 00:55:54,880
Speaker 22: a quarterback that you just don't believe that can get

1204
00:55:54,920 --> 00:55:57,640
Speaker 22: you the ball down the field consistently, because even if

1205
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:01,240
Speaker 22: it is there, he maybe is nerve us about making

1206
00:56:01,280 --> 00:56:03,719
Speaker 22: the wrong read. And I think that's the difference that

1207
00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:07,800
Speaker 22: an experienced quarterback has for you, Like Flacco is always

1208
00:56:07,800 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 22: trusting what he's seeing, like he's not wondering, oh, are

1209
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,719
Speaker 22: they fooling me? Are they trigging me? Like he knows

1210
00:56:12,760 --> 00:56:16,400
Speaker 22: where the ball needs to go. And when you're a

1211
00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:19,040
Speaker 22: receiver and you have the confidence knowing, hey, if we

1212
00:56:19,040 --> 00:56:21,400
Speaker 22: get the coverage that we hope and I beat my

1213
00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:23,640
Speaker 22: man like the ball's coming to me, I know it's

1214
00:56:23,680 --> 00:56:27,480
Speaker 22: going to be there, that's huge And I think you

1215
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:30,440
Speaker 22: know subconsciously that gets you to run your routes to

1216
00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:35,439
Speaker 22: win a little bit harder. Up front, you're saying, hey, man,

1217
00:56:35,920 --> 00:56:37,839
Speaker 22: we believe that we're going to get what we need

1218
00:56:37,880 --> 00:56:39,879
Speaker 22: and Flacco's going to be able to get the football there.

1219
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:42,960
Speaker 22: And so I think that just builds that belief in

1220
00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:46,640
Speaker 22: the offense with Flacco at the helm, and to your point,

1221
00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:48,920
Speaker 22: like he's fun to watch when he gets hot because

1222
00:56:48,960 --> 00:56:51,239
Speaker 22: he is not dinking and duncan like he's going to

1223
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:52,320
Speaker 22: chuck the ball down the field.

1224
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:53,440
Speaker 6: Joe.

1225
00:56:53,440 --> 00:56:56,239
Speaker 4: What is Bill Callahan? How's he doing this?

1226
00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:56,560
Speaker 6: Man?

1227
00:56:57,960 --> 00:56:59,160
Speaker 4: I mean how?

1228
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:01,440
Speaker 12: I mean it was ruggle in the first half obviously,

1229
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:03,399
Speaker 12: but then they make some adjustments at halftime they get

1230
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:07,520
Speaker 12: it sorted out. We are so depleted upfront. What's his

1231
00:57:07,560 --> 00:57:10,920
Speaker 12: approach going forward? How are they patchworking this together to

1232
00:57:10,920 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 12: be effective enough to win a game that quite frankly

1233
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:13,520
Speaker 12: had have.

1234
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:18,680
Speaker 22: Yeah, I mean it's scary. You saw what happened when

1235
00:57:18,720 --> 00:57:20,880
Speaker 22: you had to drop back and pass. I mean we

1236
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:25,840
Speaker 22: just were not able to block for Flacco. And I

1237
00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:28,120
Speaker 22: think if you can run the ball and you have

1238
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:32,240
Speaker 22: the play action pass like that's manageable. Anybody who's an

1239
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,120
Speaker 22: offensive lineman in the NFL you can handle play action

1240
00:57:35,240 --> 00:57:37,880
Speaker 22: pass right. That's why everybody loved playing for Kyle Shanahan

1241
00:57:38,080 --> 00:57:40,360
Speaker 22: because it's a lot of play action. You only have

1242
00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 22: to drop back a few times. That's the hardest thing

1243
00:57:42,240 --> 00:57:44,960
Speaker 22: that alignment has to do. So stand out of those

1244
00:57:45,000 --> 00:57:46,400
Speaker 22: situations is going to be huge.

1245
00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:48,080
Speaker 6: And I think being.

1246
00:57:47,920 --> 00:57:51,960
Speaker 22: Able to run the football effectively with whoever's got the

1247
00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,880
Speaker 22: hot hand or how if we want to do it,

1248
00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:56,800
Speaker 22: running back by committee is going to be so crucial

1249
00:57:56,960 --> 00:57:59,560
Speaker 22: down the stretch because if you get in some of

1250
00:57:59,600 --> 00:58:01,920
Speaker 22: these games against a team that has a better offense,

1251
00:58:03,320 --> 00:58:05,120
Speaker 22: it's gonna be really hard to say, hey, we're just

1252
00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:07,400
Speaker 22: gonna drop back and pass and make up a ten

1253
00:58:07,440 --> 00:58:13,600
Speaker 22: point deficit like that ain't gonna happen, unfortunately, because there's

1254
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:16,720
Speaker 22: just no guys left to tackle, and you know, now

1255
00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:17,840
Speaker 22: you're down Potonio.

1256
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 6: I don't know how long he's gonna be gone.

1257
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,280
Speaker 22: Nick Harris gets banged up in the game, and then

1258
00:58:22,320 --> 00:58:25,960
Speaker 22: Wyatt's out there, and even he's not looking great because

1259
00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:27,920
Speaker 22: he's got guys on both sides of him that he's

1260
00:58:27,920 --> 00:58:30,560
Speaker 22: just not used to playing with, and so routine things

1261
00:58:30,680 --> 00:58:34,600
Speaker 22: like t stunts, et stunts where you have the end

1262
00:58:34,600 --> 00:58:37,080
Speaker 22: and the tackle on defense, looping like stuff that should

1263
00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:39,000
Speaker 22: easily get picked up all of a sudden turning into

1264
00:58:39,080 --> 00:58:40,040
Speaker 22: quarterback hits.

1265
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:42,680
Speaker 18: Ah.

1266
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:47,600
Speaker 14: When you think about just kind of the belief and

1267
00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 14: this team, I don't think anybody embodies it more than

1268
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:52,560
Speaker 14: David Ajoku. And I've obviously been a big fan of

1269
00:58:52,560 --> 00:58:55,000
Speaker 14: his for quite some time, and you got to play

1270
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:57,840
Speaker 14: with him briefly in twenty seventeen, But to see the

1271
00:58:57,840 --> 00:59:00,360
Speaker 14: way that he has matured evolved, not only as a

1272
00:59:00,400 --> 00:59:00,840
Speaker 14: player but.

1273
00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:01,440
Speaker 4: As a leader.

1274
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:03,560
Speaker 14: You know, what does that tell you about Chief? And

1275
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:06,160
Speaker 14: really kind of you know what he's done here and

1276
00:59:06,200 --> 00:59:09,120
Speaker 14: the way that he has made himself the consummate professional

1277
00:59:09,120 --> 00:59:10,320
Speaker 14: and ultimate teammate.

1278
00:59:13,880 --> 00:59:16,440
Speaker 6: He was one.

1279
00:59:17,400 --> 00:59:20,840
Speaker 22: Him and he was a good buddy being a tight

1280
00:59:20,960 --> 00:59:22,720
Speaker 22: end when he was a rookie. It was my last

1281
00:59:22,760 --> 00:59:25,480
Speaker 22: season and you know, even to this day, we're still

1282
00:59:25,480 --> 00:59:30,720
Speaker 22: pretty good. Actually, as I'm sure when you look at

1283
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:32,959
Speaker 22: the two of us, you say, oh, yeah, these guys

1284
00:59:32,960 --> 00:59:37,720
Speaker 22: seem really similar. But he's a good dude in a

1285
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:42,160
Speaker 22: tremendous athlete, and everybody that saw him knew he had

1286
00:59:42,200 --> 00:59:45,400
Speaker 22: it in him. And he had some rough seasons and

1287
00:59:45,480 --> 00:59:49,440
Speaker 22: some rough stretches early on, just because he sometimes had

1288
00:59:49,480 --> 00:59:51,360
Speaker 22: a hard time holding on to the football and he

1289
00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:54,360
Speaker 22: was a young player. But I think the guys that

1290
00:59:54,360 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 22: were around him understood his mentality, understood how important it

1291
00:59:58,240 --> 01:00:01,920
Speaker 22: was to him to continue to prove and when you're

1292
01:00:01,960 --> 01:00:04,960
Speaker 22: a guy that you can catch a football but you

1293
01:00:05,040 --> 01:00:08,120
Speaker 22: just don't do it consistently, it's a mentality type thing.

1294
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:11,440
Speaker 22: But I think knowing him personally, I knew that he

1295
01:00:11,480 --> 01:00:12,720
Speaker 22: was going to be able to work his way through

1296
01:00:12,760 --> 01:00:14,720
Speaker 22: it because he wasn't the type of person that got

1297
01:00:14,800 --> 01:00:18,280
Speaker 22: frustrated and had those mental blocks, whereas.

1298
01:00:17,960 --> 01:00:19,880
Speaker 6: Like you just know you can't do it.

1299
01:00:20,320 --> 01:00:24,160
Speaker 22: He was always positive, always upbeat, optimistic, always working harder,

1300
01:00:24,560 --> 01:00:26,200
Speaker 22: always putting in more time.

1301
01:00:26,240 --> 01:00:27,720
Speaker 6: To be able to get it done.

1302
01:00:28,120 --> 01:00:32,680
Speaker 22: And I think that attitude serves you well to continue

1303
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:35,520
Speaker 22: to make that improvement. And that's what we're seeing from David,

1304
01:00:35,560 --> 01:00:38,360
Speaker 22: who I think, you know, it's a pretty easy argument

1305
01:00:38,400 --> 01:00:40,320
Speaker 22: to say he was the player of the game last week,

1306
01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,360
Speaker 22: and he's had a fantastic season and been one of

1307
01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:48,479
Speaker 22: the big impetus is for this huge, awesome playoff push

1308
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 22: that we're doing right now.

1309
01:00:49,560 --> 01:00:49,760
Speaker 4: Huff.

1310
01:00:49,800 --> 01:00:51,720
Speaker 12: You know, you think about all of the injuries, and

1311
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:54,640
Speaker 12: there's been so many hard to even keep track. But

1312
01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:56,680
Speaker 12: one thing that there is and there deserves a ton

1313
01:00:56,720 --> 01:00:59,760
Speaker 12: of credit for the people drafting and developing, whether it's

1314
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:02,760
Speaker 12: through free agency, through the draft, through trades, the people

1315
01:01:02,760 --> 01:01:05,439
Speaker 12: who put this roster together. And then the other part

1316
01:01:05,440 --> 01:01:07,440
Speaker 12: of it is and Joe, this was something unfortunately that

1317
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:08,960
Speaker 12: they weren't able to do a lot in the time

1318
01:01:08,960 --> 01:01:12,000
Speaker 12: that you were here. These guys have all grown up together.

1319
01:01:12,560 --> 01:01:14,440
Speaker 12: There's so many of these guys who are three, four

1320
01:01:14,520 --> 01:01:17,400
Speaker 12: or five years in they have each other's back. There

1321
01:01:17,480 --> 01:01:19,360
Speaker 12: is you know, you talk, every team wants that, right,

1322
01:01:19,400 --> 01:01:22,920
Speaker 12: they want that true brotherhood, that culture. They have it

1323
01:01:23,000 --> 01:01:26,040
Speaker 12: here in large part because they've drafted really well and

1324
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:27,840
Speaker 12: these guys have all kind of grown up together.

1325
01:01:28,320 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 22: Well, that's what stability buys you, and that's what you know.

1326
01:01:30,840 --> 01:01:34,360
Speaker 22: I was preaching to deaf ears what I was playing there,

1327
01:01:34,400 --> 01:01:36,720
Speaker 22: But I was saying, you know what, Okay, you look

1328
01:01:36,760 --> 01:01:41,280
Speaker 22: at New England, right, they're the greatest team of all time.

1329
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:45,120
Speaker 22: This you know, generation of New England Patriots. They won

1330
01:01:45,320 --> 01:01:49,320
Speaker 22: six championships or whatever, and I'm like, yeah, Brady, he's amazing,

1331
01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:51,800
Speaker 22: greatest player ever. You got to have the quarterback to

1332
01:01:51,880 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 22: have that level of success. But I said, the real

1333
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,320
Speaker 22: key that nobody really talks about is the fact that

1334
01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:00,240
Speaker 22: they've got guys that they draft in the four, than

1335
01:02:00,240 --> 01:02:02,480
Speaker 22: the fifth and the sixth round that come in and

1336
01:02:02,520 --> 01:02:04,200
Speaker 22: maybe they don't play in year one, they don't play

1337
01:02:04,200 --> 01:02:05,959
Speaker 22: in year two, there's no pressure for them to play.

1338
01:02:06,440 --> 01:02:08,040
Speaker 22: Year three, all of a sudden, maybe they have to

1339
01:02:08,040 --> 01:02:12,240
Speaker 22: step in because somebody's injured, and all of a sudden

1340
01:02:12,280 --> 01:02:14,320
Speaker 22: they know what to do. Though maybe they're not the

1341
01:02:14,360 --> 01:02:17,240
Speaker 22: most talented player ever but they're not making mistakes because

1342
01:02:17,240 --> 01:02:19,360
Speaker 22: they've been around in the same system. They've been hearing

1343
01:02:19,360 --> 01:02:21,920
Speaker 22: the same voice from the same coaches, they've been getting

1344
01:02:21,920 --> 01:02:24,160
Speaker 22: the same coaching points, they've been doing the same drills,

1345
01:02:24,680 --> 01:02:26,000
Speaker 22: and so they go out there and they know what

1346
01:02:26,040 --> 01:02:28,760
Speaker 22: to do and it's not a fire drill trying to

1347
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,960
Speaker 22: get them to line up to figure out what's the adjustment.

1348
01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:35,320
Speaker 22: And they play like vets even though they haven't had

1349
01:02:35,320 --> 01:02:35,920
Speaker 22: a whole lot.

1350
01:02:35,760 --> 01:02:36,840
Speaker 6: Of experience playing.

1351
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:42,080
Speaker 22: And that's just because they've had consistency of voices in

1352
01:02:42,480 --> 01:02:45,480
Speaker 22: that locker room from their coaches, on the field, from

1353
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:47,960
Speaker 22: that coaching staff, and they've been playing with a lot

1354
01:02:47,960 --> 01:02:50,560
Speaker 22: of the same dudes the entire time, and so they've

1355
01:02:50,560 --> 01:02:54,560
Speaker 22: built that camaraderie off the field. They understand the communication

1356
01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:57,200
Speaker 22: on the field, and they're able to step in when

1357
01:02:57,240 --> 01:03:00,400
Speaker 22: you do have these incredible rash of injuries. I think

1358
01:03:00,720 --> 01:03:03,480
Speaker 22: that's a testament to Kevin Stefanski and his staff, but

1359
01:03:03,520 --> 01:03:07,720
Speaker 22: also just understanding in the vision within the organization that

1360
01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,840
Speaker 22: you know, keeping this group of guys together does have

1361
01:03:10,920 --> 01:03:14,440
Speaker 22: benefits that you can't measure on paper.

1362
01:03:16,720 --> 01:03:17,480
Speaker 4: Hoff what is it?

1363
01:03:17,920 --> 01:03:21,000
Speaker 14: As somebody who's been there and you've seen players have

1364
01:03:21,040 --> 01:03:24,000
Speaker 14: to step up when everybody it feels like who has

1365
01:03:24,040 --> 01:03:25,960
Speaker 14: to step up is able to do so at a

1366
01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:26,640
Speaker 14: high level.

1367
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:29,120
Speaker 4: Is that something about the buying? Is that something about

1368
01:03:29,160 --> 01:03:29,959
Speaker 4: the position coach?

1369
01:03:30,040 --> 01:03:32,480
Speaker 14: Is that something about the coordinator on that side of

1370
01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:35,160
Speaker 14: the ball, the head coach? What is making it so

1371
01:03:35,320 --> 01:03:38,280
Speaker 14: that Mahmoud Diabati can make a big play? D Anthony

1372
01:03:38,280 --> 01:03:41,960
Speaker 14: Bell's making big plays. Ronnie Hickbin's playing like a veteran

1373
01:03:42,000 --> 01:03:44,720
Speaker 14: out there at the free safety spot. Alex Wright steps

1374
01:03:44,760 --> 01:03:46,200
Speaker 14: in with a sack and a huge play on a

1375
01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:49,080
Speaker 14: third down. Cam Mitchell comes in, trips up, Justin Field's

1376
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:51,200
Speaker 14: on a fourth down. All the different guys that are

1377
01:03:51,240 --> 01:03:54,200
Speaker 14: stepping up for this football team, how does that happen?

1378
01:03:54,280 --> 01:03:55,960
Speaker 22: Well, I think if you want to just break it down,

1379
01:03:56,000 --> 01:03:59,440
Speaker 22: the most important part is that coaching, right, It's the

1380
01:03:59,520 --> 01:04:03,280
Speaker 22: coaching that is setting up practice, going all the way

1381
01:04:03,320 --> 01:04:06,240
Speaker 22: back to OTAs in mini camp, and you're drilling the

1382
01:04:06,280 --> 01:04:09,680
Speaker 22: same things over and over again. You're teaching them and

1383
01:04:09,720 --> 01:04:14,280
Speaker 22: you're harping on the same techniques, the same situations so

1384
01:04:14,320 --> 01:04:17,040
Speaker 22: that everybody knows exactly what they're doing. You're teaching them

1385
01:04:17,080 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 22: to be smart football players. And then when they go

1386
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:22,240
Speaker 22: out there, they have the confidence that they can do it,

1387
01:04:22,280 --> 01:04:25,360
Speaker 22: even though that maybe they're not the starter. They've been

1388
01:04:25,480 --> 01:04:27,880
Speaker 22: coached the exact same way as everybody else, and it's

1389
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:33,600
Speaker 22: been a consistent tenor from the coaching staff, and you

1390
01:04:33,680 --> 01:04:35,760
Speaker 22: know exactly what to do, and they believe in you,

1391
01:04:36,080 --> 01:04:39,600
Speaker 22: and I think your teammates believe in you, and being

1392
01:04:39,600 --> 01:04:41,680
Speaker 22: able to believe in yourself and having the teammates that

1393
01:04:41,720 --> 01:04:44,400
Speaker 22: believe in you, that's a huge part of being able

1394
01:04:44,440 --> 01:04:47,400
Speaker 22: to just go out and execute in those big important

1395
01:04:47,400 --> 01:04:51,080
Speaker 22: moments and not make it bigger than it is. And

1396
01:04:51,160 --> 01:04:53,880
Speaker 22: I think a lot of times sometimes players can clam.

1397
01:04:53,640 --> 01:04:54,840
Speaker 6: Up in those situations.

1398
01:04:54,840 --> 01:04:58,400
Speaker 22: But when you've heard from your teammates that we believe

1399
01:04:58,400 --> 01:05:01,280
Speaker 22: in you, and you see the great things happening out

1400
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,280
Speaker 22: there with Joe Flacco, you know, all of a sudden,

1401
01:05:03,320 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 22: you just start believing in the magic a little bit.

1402
01:05:05,680 --> 01:05:06,720
Speaker 6: And I think that's a.

1403
01:05:06,720 --> 01:05:09,960
Speaker 22: Great thing, right because when you believe that you're going

1404
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:12,479
Speaker 22: to win the game in spite of being down ten

1405
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:15,760
Speaker 22: or down fourteen or things not going well like that

1406
01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,440
Speaker 22: has a huge impact on the effort and the focus

1407
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:22,520
Speaker 22: that you have in a game that you're playing from

1408
01:05:22,560 --> 01:05:24,600
Speaker 22: behind and maybe not some of your best football.

1409
01:05:25,720 --> 01:05:27,920
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's wild how they're able to be here and

1410
01:05:28,000 --> 01:05:30,760
Speaker 12: yet here you are. You're nine to five at Houston,

1411
01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:34,120
Speaker 12: Jets here than at Cincinnati. We've been saying all along,

1412
01:05:34,200 --> 01:05:38,320
Speaker 12: ten is the number, Joe. That feels very, very doable,

1413
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,120
Speaker 12: especially the way the Jets are going right now, and

1414
01:05:40,320 --> 01:05:42,080
Speaker 12: quite frankly, more than that is doable.

1415
01:05:42,320 --> 01:05:45,000
Speaker 4: What is your expectation for the final three games here?

1416
01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:47,320
Speaker 22: Well, I think I'm like you, guys, I feel like

1417
01:05:47,360 --> 01:05:49,720
Speaker 22: you should win all three of them, not that you

1418
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:52,320
Speaker 22: have to, but they're definitely I believe you're going to

1419
01:05:52,360 --> 01:05:54,240
Speaker 22: be favoring all three of them.

1420
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:54,840
Speaker 6: Now.

1421
01:05:54,880 --> 01:05:57,240
Speaker 22: The question is, it's kind of that fun part of

1422
01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:00,680
Speaker 22: the season where you're looking at the playoffs standard every week.

1423
01:06:00,760 --> 01:06:02,040
Speaker 6: You know, you're you're listening.

1424
01:06:01,840 --> 01:06:05,080
Speaker 22: To all the prognosticators break down what every game means,

1425
01:06:05,120 --> 01:06:07,520
Speaker 22: and you know, it becomes really fun because now all

1426
01:06:07,560 --> 01:06:10,720
Speaker 22: of a sudden, every other game in the NFL you're

1427
01:06:10,760 --> 01:06:13,800
Speaker 22: watching and you've got a huge vested, rooting, rooting interest

1428
01:06:14,360 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 22: to the level that you know, you're basically cheering for

1429
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:19,240
Speaker 22: the Browns when you're cheering against the Ravens, or you're

1430
01:06:19,280 --> 01:06:24,240
Speaker 22: cheering against the Miami Dolphins, like the Buffalo Bills, like

1431
01:06:24,560 --> 01:06:27,120
Speaker 22: it becomes fun. I mean, every game is just so important,

1432
01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:30,040
Speaker 22: and I think for us, what a blessing to be

1433
01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:34,200
Speaker 22: Holiday season, Christmas, being hanging around with your family, having

1434
01:06:34,200 --> 01:06:35,000
Speaker 22: these games.

1435
01:06:34,800 --> 01:06:36,880
Speaker 6: All nice and spread out so you can watch them one.

1436
01:06:36,800 --> 01:06:39,960
Speaker 22: At a time, and every game has a big impact

1437
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:42,280
Speaker 22: on what happens with the Browns. So I mean, talk

1438
01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:43,480
Speaker 22: about pure joy, guys.

1439
01:06:45,200 --> 01:06:46,160
Speaker 4: It is pure joy.

1440
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:49,160
Speaker 14: This is this is a fun, fun team, and the

1441
01:06:49,200 --> 01:06:51,600
Speaker 14: way that they continue to fight and battle and then

1442
01:06:51,720 --> 01:06:54,800
Speaker 14: ultimately come through is every bit as fun.

1443
01:06:55,160 --> 01:06:56,040
Speaker 4: Flipping it around.

1444
01:06:56,640 --> 01:06:58,880
Speaker 14: No sacks for the first time in four straight games

1445
01:06:58,880 --> 01:07:01,040
Speaker 14: in Miles Garrett's career, but he was credited at profoile

1446
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:04,480
Speaker 14: focus with eleven pressures. He was dominant, He was being

1447
01:07:04,520 --> 01:07:07,120
Speaker 14: held repeatedly. He was going through double teams, he was

1448
01:07:07,160 --> 01:07:10,320
Speaker 14: going through triple teams, making tackles for a loss, making

1449
01:07:10,440 --> 01:07:13,560
Speaker 14: huge plays. I thought it was an incredible performance by

1450
01:07:13,560 --> 01:07:15,880
Speaker 14: Miles Garrett. Eve though he didn't have the traditional sacks,

1451
01:07:16,440 --> 01:07:18,560
Speaker 14: it felt like he in many ways wrecked the game.

1452
01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,520
Speaker 14: What do you make of Miles? And then how can

1453
01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:23,640
Speaker 14: they continue not to throw lags? He was tackled by

1454
01:07:23,640 --> 01:07:26,800
Speaker 14: his shoulder pads and face masking this one right in

1455
01:07:26,800 --> 01:07:27,760
Speaker 14: front of the officials.

1456
01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:28,880
Speaker 4: It's wild.

1457
01:07:29,200 --> 01:07:33,760
Speaker 22: Yeah, that's completely incomprehensible. I don't understand how they're not

1458
01:07:33,760 --> 01:07:37,160
Speaker 22: throwing these flags. But you're exactly right. I always feel

1459
01:07:37,200 --> 01:07:38,920
Speaker 22: for him a little bit because he hasn't had a

1460
01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:42,800
Speaker 22: sack in four weeks, but he's won every single rep.

1461
01:07:43,000 --> 01:07:45,760
Speaker 22: I mean, I haven't seen him getting blocked one single time.

1462
01:07:45,800 --> 01:07:48,360
Speaker 22: And what a great thing for a team to know that, Hey,

1463
01:07:48,400 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 22: all we got to do is force that quarterback to

1464
01:07:50,720 --> 01:07:52,560
Speaker 22: drop back to pass and hold onto the ball for

1465
01:07:52,560 --> 01:07:55,040
Speaker 22: two seconds and Miles going to get there. He may

1466
01:07:55,080 --> 01:07:56,720
Speaker 22: not get him down, he may not get credit for

1467
01:07:56,760 --> 01:07:59,280
Speaker 22: the sack, but he's going to disrupt the play and

1468
01:07:59,320 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 22: he's going to destroy the play.

1469
01:08:01,040 --> 01:08:02,640
Speaker 6: Uh So it is fun.

1470
01:08:02,480 --> 01:08:07,360
Speaker 22: To watch him, and he's really been the reason the

1471
01:08:07,400 --> 01:08:10,200
Speaker 22: Browns have been able to stick with it and be

1472
01:08:10,280 --> 01:08:12,920
Speaker 22: in the situation they're in in spite of all the

1473
01:08:12,960 --> 01:08:15,920
Speaker 22: injuries that they've had, because he's just so dominant. I mean,

1474
01:08:15,920 --> 01:08:18,559
Speaker 22: he wins every single rep. I mean, I honestly can't

1475
01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:21,599
Speaker 22: remember watching a defensive player that's been like that. I mean,

1476
01:08:21,920 --> 01:08:24,040
Speaker 22: I'm trying to think back watching Reggie White when I

1477
01:08:24,080 --> 01:08:26,120
Speaker 22: was a kid. I know, they just I think they

1478
01:08:26,200 --> 01:08:29,120
Speaker 22: just had a special on maybe ESPN or something with him,

1479
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,240
Speaker 22: But I remember watching him.

1480
01:08:31,560 --> 01:08:33,400
Speaker 6: Gotta watch that with Jack. We made a note on

1481
01:08:33,439 --> 01:08:34,439
Speaker 6: Wednesday when when.

1482
01:08:34,280 --> 01:08:37,080
Speaker 22: They were showing the commercials, I say, but but we

1483
01:08:37,160 --> 01:08:39,000
Speaker 22: got to watch that, and I said, I said, that's

1484
01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:41,559
Speaker 22: my favorite player when I was a kid. But I'm

1485
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,320
Speaker 22: just trying to remember back, like I feel like when

1486
01:08:43,320 --> 01:08:45,320
Speaker 22: he played, he was like that. But I don't remember

1487
01:08:45,360 --> 01:08:48,759
Speaker 22: if it was every play the way it is with

1488
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:52,600
Speaker 22: with Miles, because it's literally every play like they occasionally

1489
01:08:52,600 --> 01:08:55,880
Speaker 22: if they double team them, they'll slow them up, which

1490
01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:57,320
Speaker 22: is amazing, but.

1491
01:08:57,360 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 4: They Yeah, I mean, it's just remarkable.

1492
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,920
Speaker 22: I mean that I have yet to see somebody block

1493
01:09:04,000 --> 01:09:06,120
Speaker 22: him and talk what a weapon that is.

1494
01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 12: The officials have to do better here, Joe, because it's

1495
01:09:08,400 --> 01:09:11,120
Speaker 12: not the tackles problem, like their job as long as

1496
01:09:11,120 --> 01:09:11,719
Speaker 12: you're going to let.

1497
01:09:11,640 --> 01:09:13,439
Speaker 4: Them get away with it like they will.

1498
01:09:13,479 --> 01:09:15,920
Speaker 12: I mean, it's crazy to me that that he doesn't,

1499
01:09:16,080 --> 01:09:17,639
Speaker 12: and we've complained about it.

1500
01:09:17,880 --> 01:09:19,760
Speaker 4: Miles has brought attention to it. Maybe that's why he's

1501
01:09:19,800 --> 01:09:20,200
Speaker 4: I don't know.

1502
01:09:20,400 --> 01:09:23,120
Speaker 12: It's crazy though, that it happens you show up on

1503
01:09:23,160 --> 01:09:25,880
Speaker 12: a Sunday afternoon or evening or a Monday morning, and

1504
01:09:25,920 --> 01:09:27,680
Speaker 12: you will see clip after clip at a clip of

1505
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:30,840
Speaker 12: him being just tackled by the tackles. It's they have

1506
01:09:30,960 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 12: got to do something right at some point.

1507
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:35,960
Speaker 22: Well, we talked all about it last week. We said,

1508
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,920
Speaker 22: what can Miles do so that the refs finally pay

1509
01:09:39,920 --> 01:09:42,640
Speaker 22: attention and throw some of these flags? And you know,

1510
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:45,040
Speaker 22: he talked about it. I don't know if he got fined,

1511
01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:47,760
Speaker 22: but he was pretty he did harsh on the officials

1512
01:09:48,120 --> 01:09:51,000
Speaker 22: after the game last week, and so we thought, okay,

1513
01:09:51,040 --> 01:09:52,519
Speaker 22: now it's got to get better, right, you know, he's

1514
01:09:52,560 --> 01:09:54,320
Speaker 22: probably going to talk to the officials before the game.

1515
01:09:54,360 --> 01:09:57,120
Speaker 22: Certainly the coaching staff's going to bring it to their attention,

1516
01:09:57,160 --> 01:09:58,640
Speaker 22: and we thought it would be different.

1517
01:09:58,400 --> 01:09:59,559
Speaker 6: This week, but it wasn't.

1518
01:09:59,600 --> 01:10:01,360
Speaker 22: So on I don't know, I mean, I'm not sure

1519
01:10:01,400 --> 01:10:02,880
Speaker 22: what else there is that he could do.

1520
01:10:03,200 --> 01:10:04,479
Speaker 6: Honestly, I have no idea.

1521
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:08,240
Speaker 22: I mean, he's gone undone both sides of it, right,

1522
01:10:08,240 --> 01:10:12,880
Speaker 22: He's been outrageous and uh, you know, very pointed in

1523
01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:14,920
Speaker 22: the media to the point where he got fined. I'm

1524
01:10:14,920 --> 01:10:17,200
Speaker 22: sure he's talking to the officials before and after the games,

1525
01:10:17,200 --> 01:10:19,519
Speaker 22: the coaches are talking to him like, what else are

1526
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:20,000
Speaker 22: you gonna do?

1527
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:22,240
Speaker 6: Just now? You just got to play.

1528
01:10:22,479 --> 01:10:24,640
Speaker 14: It's crazy, though, I mean, like these things are some

1529
01:10:24,680 --> 01:10:27,720
Speaker 14: of them are so blatant. It's almost like there was

1530
01:10:27,760 --> 01:10:30,800
Speaker 14: a directive not to throw any flags on any Miles

1531
01:10:30,880 --> 01:10:33,920
Speaker 14: Garrett pass rush because he's being literally tackled right in

1532
01:10:33,960 --> 01:10:35,040
Speaker 14: front of people's faces.

1533
01:10:35,040 --> 01:10:36,920
Speaker 4: But nonetheless, it is what it is.

1534
01:10:36,960 --> 01:10:39,680
Speaker 14: This team continues to find a way hoff you know,

1535
01:10:40,160 --> 01:10:44,320
Speaker 14: when you have kind of this feeling that's going on,

1536
01:10:44,360 --> 01:10:46,360
Speaker 14: and we talked with Siony Taki Taki about it earlier,

1537
01:10:46,439 --> 01:10:48,120
Speaker 14: kind of in the locker room after the games, nobody

1538
01:10:48,160 --> 01:10:50,000
Speaker 14: wants to leave. It's kind of like being back in

1539
01:10:50,040 --> 01:10:51,880
Speaker 14: high school or college when he win a big game,

1540
01:10:52,640 --> 01:10:55,599
Speaker 14: you know, is that what it's all about?

1541
01:10:55,720 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 4: Kind of?

1542
01:10:55,960 --> 01:10:57,639
Speaker 14: You know the guys they say, like for Joe Flacko,

1543
01:10:57,640 --> 01:10:59,240
Speaker 14: I got to talk to him and I said, you know,

1544
01:10:59,640 --> 01:11:00,920
Speaker 14: every says they miss a locker room.

1545
01:11:00,920 --> 01:11:01,599
Speaker 4: What's it like being back?

1546
01:11:01,600 --> 01:11:03,680
Speaker 14: And you can tell this team just relishes it and

1547
01:11:03,680 --> 01:11:06,760
Speaker 14: relishes being around each other. How rare is that and

1548
01:11:06,800 --> 01:11:08,200
Speaker 14: how much do you think that has to do with

1549
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:11,040
Speaker 14: their ability to either next man up or to come

1550
01:11:11,160 --> 01:11:14,080
Speaker 14: through in those moments when it matters. This team could

1551
01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:16,840
Speaker 14: easily have an inverted record from what it does. But

1552
01:11:16,880 --> 01:11:18,920
Speaker 14: it's that belief and their ability to be clutched that

1553
01:11:19,000 --> 01:11:19,760
Speaker 14: has carried them.

1554
01:11:19,880 --> 01:11:22,960
Speaker 22: Yeah, the belief definitely snowballs, and you're seeing that right now,

1555
01:11:23,080 --> 01:11:25,120
Speaker 22: right there's a lot of belief in this team. There's

1556
01:11:25,120 --> 01:11:28,960
Speaker 22: a lot of belef in Joe Flacco rightly, So they

1557
01:11:29,000 --> 01:11:31,479
Speaker 22: believe that if it's close, Miles Garrett is going to

1558
01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:33,400
Speaker 22: make a play and they're gonna have a chance to

1559
01:11:33,400 --> 01:11:37,439
Speaker 22: go win it. And the reason that they like each

1560
01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:39,800
Speaker 22: other in the locker room, it's because they're winning, right.

1561
01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:43,120
Speaker 22: We say that all the time. Hey, hey, when you win,

1562
01:11:43,640 --> 01:11:45,800
Speaker 22: there's no chicken and egg discussion with me.

1563
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:48,759
Speaker 6: Like, when you win, you love everybody. If you lose,

1564
01:11:48,840 --> 01:11:49,760
Speaker 6: you hate everybody.

1565
01:11:49,800 --> 01:11:51,519
Speaker 22: That's just the nature of the game because there's so

1566
01:11:51,600 --> 01:11:55,920
Speaker 22: much on the line with every NFL game. And I

1567
01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:57,680
Speaker 22: think it was Mike Petton used to say, you know,

1568
01:11:58,200 --> 01:12:00,559
Speaker 22: the beer's a little colder, the cigars are little sweeter

1569
01:12:00,680 --> 01:12:03,559
Speaker 22: when when you win. And it's so true because you

1570
01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:06,040
Speaker 22: see it right there. You win, you want to spend

1571
01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:08,040
Speaker 22: the time with the guys. You want to relive the

1572
01:12:08,120 --> 01:12:12,679
Speaker 22: moments from the game, and it does snowball on itself,

1573
01:12:12,720 --> 01:12:16,960
Speaker 22: and you build that momentum going into this most important

1574
01:12:17,160 --> 01:12:19,320
Speaker 22: part of the game the season here down the stretch,

1575
01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:22,599
Speaker 22: three more games and then hopefully a little playoff run.

1576
01:12:22,800 --> 01:12:24,920
Speaker 22: And I think that's why getting hot at this point

1577
01:12:24,920 --> 01:12:28,599
Speaker 22: of the season is so important, because it builds belief

1578
01:12:28,920 --> 01:12:31,800
Speaker 22: and then it allows you to get through some of

1579
01:12:31,840 --> 01:12:35,559
Speaker 22: those tough moments where you are facing adversity that you're

1580
01:12:35,640 --> 01:12:38,360
Speaker 22: certainly going to see if you make it to the playoffs.

1581
01:12:38,520 --> 01:12:40,680
Speaker 12: All right, let's go around the league a little bit here.

1582
01:12:41,680 --> 01:12:44,760
Speaker 12: What caught your attention most? I think most people the

1583
01:12:45,120 --> 01:12:47,080
Speaker 12: natural thing around here was you watch our game, and

1584
01:12:47,080 --> 01:12:50,720
Speaker 12: then the Bills obliterating the Cowboys was on right after it.

1585
01:12:50,760 --> 01:12:53,719
Speaker 12: You had Baltimore at night. What result around the league

1586
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:54,759
Speaker 12: caught your attention most?

1587
01:12:55,560 --> 01:12:59,120
Speaker 22: Yeah, I was surprised how badly the Cowboys got smoked.

1588
01:13:00,080 --> 01:13:01,559
Speaker 22: I thought that was going to be one that was

1589
01:13:01,600 --> 01:13:02,519
Speaker 22: maybe gonna help us.

1590
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:02,880
Speaker 6: A little bit.

1591
01:13:02,920 --> 01:13:06,679
Speaker 22: And I was actually also a little surprised how good

1592
01:13:06,720 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 22: the Ravens looked. I mean, they're the one seed right

1593
01:13:10,560 --> 01:13:12,599
Speaker 22: now in the AFC, And maybe it's just me being

1594
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:16,240
Speaker 22: optimistic and believing in this team and the magical run

1595
01:13:16,320 --> 01:13:19,120
Speaker 22: and the it's meant to be season, you know, and

1596
01:13:19,240 --> 01:13:22,120
Speaker 22: I'm a fan, I get it, so in my mind,

1597
01:13:22,120 --> 01:13:24,720
Speaker 22: I'm like, oh, yeah, the Ravens, they're gonna lose this one.

1598
01:13:24,720 --> 01:13:28,320
Speaker 22: They're gonna look like crap. But they didn't. So I

1599
01:13:28,320 --> 01:13:31,320
Speaker 22: think got a little bit upset by that because they

1600
01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,600
Speaker 22: do look pretty pretty dang good right now. So I

1601
01:13:34,600 --> 01:13:37,880
Speaker 22: would say those are the two things that were the

1602
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:41,200
Speaker 22: most surprising. Certainly, the Cowboys getting waxed the way they

1603
01:13:41,200 --> 01:13:43,559
Speaker 22: did was was shocking, and kind of thinking that the

1604
01:13:43,600 --> 01:13:45,360
Speaker 22: Bills were left for dead and all of a sudden,

1605
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:48,800
Speaker 22: now they're running the football and they're winning games is

1606
01:13:49,560 --> 01:13:51,360
Speaker 22: also disappointing and surprising.

1607
01:13:52,240 --> 01:13:56,720
Speaker 12: Joe Brady move worked out for them, the coordinator, It's

1608
01:13:56,720 --> 01:13:59,280
Speaker 12: worked out very well for them. Yeah, the crazy thing

1609
01:13:59,280 --> 01:14:01,599
Speaker 12: with them off Z and I were talking about it earlier.

1610
01:14:01,960 --> 01:14:05,479
Speaker 12: Buffalo has no tie breakers with anybody, So of the

1611
01:14:05,520 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 12: teams that are eight and six, they can't have the

1612
01:14:08,040 --> 01:14:10,040
Speaker 12: same record with any of them. So they have to

1613
01:14:10,040 --> 01:14:12,560
Speaker 12: be a game better than Cincinnati. They got to be

1614
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:16,000
Speaker 12: a game better than the AFC South team, So Indy, Houston,

1615
01:14:16,200 --> 01:14:18,200
Speaker 12: Jacksonville got to be a game better of all of them.

1616
01:14:18,360 --> 01:14:19,920
Speaker 12: They got to be a game better than us in

1617
01:14:20,000 --> 01:14:24,320
Speaker 12: order to get in Cincinnati as well. So they're probably

1618
01:14:24,320 --> 01:14:26,400
Speaker 12: the most dangerous team in the AFC right now. They're

1619
01:14:26,439 --> 01:14:28,799
Speaker 12: probably playing the best of any team in the AFC

1620
01:14:28,920 --> 01:14:31,840
Speaker 12: right now, but they might not even get in. They

1621
01:14:31,880 --> 01:14:33,720
Speaker 12: have to win them all. They got to get to

1622
01:14:33,760 --> 01:14:34,720
Speaker 12: eleven wins to get in.

1623
01:14:35,920 --> 01:14:39,080
Speaker 22: Yeah, whoever's paying attention to the AFC playoff race this

1624
01:14:39,160 --> 01:14:41,800
Speaker 22: year's got their hands full of his Garrett where he

1625
01:14:41,920 --> 01:14:45,599
Speaker 22: just finds a way and he could do it in

1626
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:49,000
Speaker 22: any number of ways. So they would be a team

1627
01:14:49,040 --> 01:14:51,920
Speaker 22: that I'd be worried about playing in the playoffs. But

1628
01:14:52,080 --> 01:14:53,559
Speaker 22: I mean, it is going to be a log jam

1629
01:14:53,560 --> 01:14:55,840
Speaker 22: there to figure out who gets in, especially when you

1630
01:14:55,880 --> 01:14:59,360
Speaker 22: look at the schedules for these teams going down, like

1631
01:14:59,720 --> 01:15:01,439
Speaker 22: I think the Browns probably have one of the easier

1632
01:15:01,439 --> 01:15:04,439
Speaker 22: schedules of the teams that are contenders, But you look

1633
01:15:04,479 --> 01:15:06,439
Speaker 22: at the Ravens, who they got to play down the stretch.

1634
01:15:06,479 --> 01:15:08,599
Speaker 22: Who the Dolphins have to play. I'm sure you guys

1635
01:15:08,600 --> 01:15:11,000
Speaker 22: have the schedule in front of him. But my son

1636
01:15:11,040 --> 01:15:14,200
Speaker 22: and I were watching last night before the Sunday night

1637
01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:17,519
Speaker 22: game and you know Cornecki or whoever that.

1638
01:15:17,479 --> 01:15:20,360
Speaker 6: Guy is for NBC. He's always like doing the khakis.

1639
01:15:20,520 --> 01:15:22,600
Speaker 22: I love that guy with the Yeah, he's got the

1640
01:15:22,680 --> 01:15:24,080
Speaker 22: khakis and the sleeves rolled up.

1641
01:15:24,120 --> 01:15:26,800
Speaker 6: He's the same guy that does the politics stuff, but

1642
01:15:27,000 --> 01:15:28,559
Speaker 6: he cracks me up. And we were watching that.

1643
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:32,559
Speaker 22: I'm going man Brown said, pretty easy schedule compared to

1644
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:34,719
Speaker 22: these other guys. I mean, it's kind of a blath

1645
01:15:34,800 --> 01:15:36,439
Speaker 22: for some of those other teams at the top of

1646
01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:38,040
Speaker 22: the AFC that are in the playoff race.

1647
01:15:38,200 --> 01:15:38,920
Speaker 4: There's no question.

1648
01:15:39,040 --> 01:15:42,720
Speaker 12: Yes, if Jacksonville would have won last night and Baltimore

1649
01:15:42,760 --> 01:15:44,559
Speaker 12: just would have been a game ahead of us, I

1650
01:15:44,560 --> 01:15:47,639
Speaker 12: would have loved our chances because Baltimore goes to San

1651
01:15:47,640 --> 01:15:51,400
Speaker 12: Francisco this week, then it's Miami at home, and then Pittsburgh.

1652
01:15:51,400 --> 01:15:54,639
Speaker 12: That's their last three. Pittsburgh will be relatively easy at

1653
01:15:54,640 --> 01:15:56,840
Speaker 12: this point. They're a shell of themselves. But the other

1654
01:15:56,840 --> 01:16:00,320
Speaker 12: two games would have been heavyweight fights to amount of

1655
01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,639
Speaker 12: wins for both of those games. So, had Jacksonville won

1656
01:16:02,720 --> 01:16:04,360
Speaker 12: last night, Joe I think he had a hell of

1657
01:16:04,360 --> 01:16:04,840
Speaker 12: a chance.

1658
01:16:04,720 --> 01:16:06,240
Speaker 4: To win the division. Unfortunately they didn't.

1659
01:16:06,720 --> 01:16:09,880
Speaker 14: They had four trips inside the thirty of the Ravens

1660
01:16:09,880 --> 01:16:11,439
Speaker 14: in the first half and scored no points.

1661
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:13,400
Speaker 4: I mean, they one of the.

1662
01:16:13,360 --> 01:16:15,280
Speaker 12: More stupid Byen fumbles you've ever seen too. On the

1663
01:16:15,320 --> 01:16:18,160
Speaker 12: Laurentin you just dropped the ball, just pay Out dropped it.

1664
01:16:18,560 --> 01:16:19,440
Speaker 6: And then the.

1665
01:16:19,200 --> 01:16:22,080
Speaker 14: Decision making at the end of the first half was insane.

1666
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:25,920
Speaker 14: The Ravens obviously ultimately pulled away, but I didn't come

1667
01:16:25,920 --> 01:16:28,000
Speaker 14: away from that thinking, oh man, they're unbeatable.

1668
01:16:28,680 --> 01:16:30,680
Speaker 12: No, but they're gonna be the one that Lamar might

1669
01:16:30,680 --> 01:16:32,720
Speaker 12: win the MVP if they played well in San Francisco

1670
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:33,200
Speaker 12: this week.

1671
01:16:33,960 --> 01:16:34,519
Speaker 4: He's good.

1672
01:16:34,880 --> 01:16:38,960
Speaker 14: Well, yeah, and his ability to extend plays is just absurd.

1673
01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:43,000
Speaker 4: Some of the plays that they were making were ludicrous. Yesterday. Yeah, yeah,

1674
01:16:43,160 --> 01:16:44,800
Speaker 4: absolutely was all right.

1675
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:49,000
Speaker 22: They were starting to Lamar, which part, sorry, sir, I know,

1676
01:16:49,760 --> 01:16:52,240
Speaker 22: not being in person makes it tough for me to interject.

1677
01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:54,200
Speaker 22: But did you see what they finally started doing with

1678
01:16:54,240 --> 01:16:57,439
Speaker 22: Lamar Because they when they were rushing him with only

1679
01:16:57,479 --> 01:16:59,599
Speaker 22: four guys, he was getting out of the pocket and

1680
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:03,760
Speaker 22: just killing him with off schedule plays. So they were

1681
01:17:03,840 --> 01:17:06,960
Speaker 22: rushing two guys or three guys and then they were

1682
01:17:07,040 --> 01:17:10,439
Speaker 22: dropping somebody out to wait until he started breaking out

1683
01:17:10,439 --> 01:17:12,640
Speaker 22: of the pocket to then go and rush after him.

1684
01:17:12,680 --> 01:17:14,880
Speaker 22: It was almost like they were spying with one of

1685
01:17:14,880 --> 01:17:18,040
Speaker 22: the defensive linemen who was popping out after they started

1686
01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:20,360
Speaker 22: rushing those other guys. I mean, can you imagine that

1687
01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:24,120
Speaker 22: from a defense saying, you know what, we know that

1688
01:17:24,200 --> 01:17:26,280
Speaker 22: you have no chance to actually get there on the

1689
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:28,880
Speaker 22: first go around, So we're just gonna wait until he

1690
01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:31,040
Speaker 22: gets out of the pocket after you three guys get

1691
01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:33,000
Speaker 22: after him, and then we're gonna have somebody just try

1692
01:17:33,040 --> 01:17:34,880
Speaker 22: to chase him down, which still didn't work, but I.

1693
01:17:34,880 --> 01:17:39,400
Speaker 6: Was gonna say sharp because they just realized they.

1694
01:17:39,240 --> 01:17:41,920
Speaker 14: Had him spied a bunch of times and he still

1695
01:17:42,360 --> 01:17:44,360
Speaker 14: got out of their containment and got first down.

1696
01:17:44,880 --> 01:17:47,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's ridiculous. Oh yeah, it really is wild.

1697
01:17:48,120 --> 01:17:51,400
Speaker 12: Yeah, all right, so hop you are you will be

1698

1711
01:18:21,680 --> 01:18:24,040
Speaker 22: my sister's house. She lives just a couple minutes down

1712
01:18:24,040 --> 01:18:26,040
Speaker 22: the road from me. And actually my dad he's he's

1713
01:18:26,040 --> 01:18:28,680
Speaker 22: a wizard on the grill. You know, it's definitely in

1714
01:18:28,760 --> 01:18:30,880
Speaker 22: my DNA and so he was a sign being that

1715
01:18:30,920 --> 01:18:34,400
Speaker 22: it's not our house, uh, to be the protein man.

1716
01:18:34,479 --> 01:18:36,680
Speaker 22: And he's doing a nice big pork tender line on

1717
01:18:36,760 --> 01:18:39,600
Speaker 22: the old school charcoal grill. So I'm excited. You know,

1718
01:18:39,600 --> 01:18:42,040
Speaker 22: I haven't pulled out a charcoal grill in a long time.

1719
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:45,639
Speaker 22: So just being out there sucking down a few seventy

1720
01:18:45,640 --> 01:18:47,920
Speaker 22: three colsh beers, which is what we always drink for

1721
01:18:48,080 --> 01:18:51,240
Speaker 22: Christmas because we'd like to treat ourselves. And uh, sitting

1722
01:18:51,240 --> 01:18:54,840
Speaker 22: around an old charcoal grill watching my happy man. And

1723
01:18:54,880 --> 01:18:57,240

1725

1740
01:19:38,400 --> 01:19:39,560
Speaker 4: Like a supermarket?

1741
01:19:39,760 --> 01:19:41,840
Speaker 14: What was that that you were working on in and

1742
01:19:41,880 --> 01:19:43,680
Speaker 14: that was frustrating you and foiling you?

1743
01:19:43,800 --> 01:19:46,160
Speaker 6: Oh my god, what a disaster that thing was. I

1744
01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:48,080
Speaker 6: I was very happy.

1745
01:19:48,680 --> 01:19:51,479
Speaker 22: I was very happy that the wife didn't come down

1746
01:19:51,600 --> 01:19:53,519
Speaker 22: when I was putting that thing together, because all I

1747
01:19:53,560 --> 01:19:55,519
Speaker 22: want to do is sit down and watch that football game.

1748
01:19:55,840 --> 01:19:58,240
Speaker 22: But I knew I only had that window of time

1749
01:19:58,280 --> 01:20:00,960
Speaker 22: to put this thing together. And it was like a giant,

1750
01:20:01,080 --> 01:20:04,320
Speaker 22: like kids supermarket. It was by like this dog or

1751
01:20:04,360 --> 01:20:07,680
Speaker 22: something like that together like yeah, it was like a

1752
01:20:07,760 --> 01:20:12,960
Speaker 22: checkout stand. Oh, like I already clicked together three like

1753
01:20:13,240 --> 01:20:16,439
Speaker 22: uh yeah, they're they're crazy. I mean I basically built

1754
01:20:16,439 --> 01:20:18,640
Speaker 22: the whole thing other than like the painted wood. I

1755
01:20:18,720 --> 01:20:22,120
Speaker 22: did everything myself, and they were mislabeled. So I was

1756
01:20:22,160 --> 01:20:24,559
Speaker 22: looking for the letter C. Yeah, I was looking for

1757
01:20:24,600 --> 01:20:26,920
Speaker 22: the letter C to screw it into the letter A.

1758
01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:30,200
Speaker 22: It didn't exist because they were just mislabeled, like the

1759
01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:33,439
Speaker 22: stickers had off and shipping and they're all packaged other stuff.

1760
01:20:33,479 --> 01:20:35,800
Speaker 22: So it took me like three hours. And I'm I'm

1761
01:20:35,800 --> 01:20:37,400
Speaker 22: a pretty good as sumbler because I've done a lot

1762
01:20:37,439 --> 01:20:40,400
Speaker 22: of it in my day. And uh, working on the

1763
01:20:40,439 --> 01:20:43,200
Speaker 22: farm helps because you're always figuring stuff out and you're

1764
01:20:43,200 --> 01:20:46,559
Speaker 22: always like trying to, you know, fix stuff things like that.

1765
01:20:47,080 --> 01:20:49,160
Speaker 22: So I had everything all laid out and I was

1766
01:20:49,280 --> 01:20:51,320
Speaker 22: I was literally ready to just clear it all and

1767
01:20:51,360 --> 01:20:53,280
Speaker 22: throw it away because I couldn't find the letter CE.

1768
01:20:53,400 --> 01:20:54,400
Speaker 6: It didn't exist.

1769
01:20:54,600 --> 01:20:57,200
Speaker 22: And finally I just started, I like reversed engineered it.

1770
01:20:57,200 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 22: I started from the back. Yeah, I had to start

1771
01:20:59,400 --> 01:21:01,920
Speaker 22: from Z and build my way all the way up

1772
01:21:01,960 --> 01:21:03,280
Speaker 22: till I got to see and figure out what was

1773
01:21:03,320 --> 01:21:06,439
Speaker 22: the last piece that was there, and so finally got

1774
01:21:06,479 --> 01:21:08,479
Speaker 22: to put together. But even at that point, I was

1775
01:21:08,479 --> 01:21:10,599
Speaker 22: just so exhausted I couldn't even take a victory lap

1776
01:21:10,640 --> 01:21:13,160
Speaker 22: I was. I was so discouraged and distraught at that moment.

1777
01:21:13,200 --> 01:21:14,200
Speaker 22: I just had to go to bed.

1778
01:21:14,760 --> 01:21:18,840
Speaker 14: I just hope that they play supermarket a lot, that

1779
01:21:18,920 --> 01:21:22,080
Speaker 14: this becomes like you guys have a good few months

1780
01:21:22,080 --> 01:21:26,200
Speaker 14: stretch in Germany of them really doing the the supermarket.

1782
01:21:27,960 --> 01:21:29,160
Speaker 12: not taking that thing to Germany.

1783
01:21:29,960 --> 01:21:32,479
Speaker 6: That's exactly the point. See, this is the worst part

1784
01:21:32,479 --> 01:21:33,839
Speaker 6: about it. And you hit the nail.

1785
01:21:35,200 --> 01:21:37,000
Speaker 4: Hold on a second, you just gave up.

1786

01:23:27,200 --> 01:23:30,040
Speaker 12: go into the league tomorrow in terms of one thought

1828
01:23:30,080 --> 01:23:34,320
Speaker 12: and all of that showing up overall, as long as

1829
01:23:34,360 --> 01:23:39,040
Speaker 12: we win, that's a win. The tiebreaker stuff in the AFC,

1830
01:23:39,080 --> 01:23:44,519
Speaker 12: it's so stacked against, for example, Buffalo that if this

1831
01:23:44,600 --> 01:23:46,559
Speaker 12: kind of all keeps pace, it's going to be tough

1832
01:23:46,640 --> 01:23:48,479
Speaker 12: for them. And we're in a great spot.

1833
01:23:48,880 --> 01:23:51,280
Speaker 14: We're in a great spot right now. And you know,

1834
01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:54,320
Speaker 14: it could have gone a little bit better for us.

1835
01:23:54,360 --> 01:23:56,120
Speaker 14: Over the course of the weekend. The Vikings had a

1836
01:23:56,280 --> 01:23:59,640
Speaker 14: great opportunity to beat the Bengals, they did not. The

1837
01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,320
Speaker 14: tight has had a great opportunity to beat the Texans

1838
01:24:02,920 --> 01:24:05,720
Speaker 14: did not. So a couple of things went ways that,

1839
01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:09,240
Speaker 14: you know, was that case case Keenum, Yeah, got the start.

1840
01:24:09,240 --> 01:24:12,040
Speaker 14: I thought, my whole thing, my whole soliloquious about.

1841
01:24:11,840 --> 01:24:12,639
Speaker 4: David Davis Mille.

1842
01:24:12,680 --> 01:24:15,440
Speaker 14: I was really seeing into the future and Yeah, nonetheless,

1843
01:24:15,479 --> 01:24:17,280
Speaker 14: but case Keenum got it done for me, so that

1844
01:24:17,360 --> 01:24:20,960
Speaker 14: was good. Yeah, so things could have happened a little

1845
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:23,320
Speaker 14: bit differently, But it is pretty wild now that if

1846
01:24:23,360 --> 01:24:25,840
Speaker 14: it were today, Brown's Bengals are in, which surprised me

1847
01:24:25,880 --> 01:24:28,400
Speaker 14: because I thought their conference record was going to be

1848
01:24:28,760 --> 01:24:30,000
Speaker 14: such a detriment to them.

1849
01:24:30,000 --> 01:24:31,640
Speaker 4: They're three and six in the conference, and.

1850
01:24:31,680 --> 01:24:35,840
Speaker 14: Yet they're ahead of the eight and six Texans, who

1851
01:24:35,840 --> 01:24:37,759
Speaker 14: are better in the conference.

1852
01:24:37,800 --> 01:24:40,280
Speaker 4: They were five and four. The Bills are forced at

1853
01:24:40,280 --> 01:24:43,559
Speaker 4: the time the head to head against them. Houston beat them, right,

1854
01:24:43,600 --> 01:24:45,000
Speaker 4: so why would they be out right now?

1855
01:24:45,080 --> 01:24:46,840
Speaker 12: I don't know, but that's the way that it shows

1856
01:24:46,880 --> 01:24:50,320
Speaker 12: across the board is that, yeah, the six and Houston's seven.

1857
01:24:50,920 --> 01:24:51,759
Speaker 4: Houston's a seven.

1858
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:56,080
Speaker 14: So the Patriots have been eliminated, right, the Patriots, the

1859
01:24:56,160 --> 01:24:59,559
Speaker 14: Jets and the Titans, and the Chargers have been eliminated

1860
01:24:59,560 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 14: from the post season.

1861
01:25:01,320 --> 01:25:04,760
Speaker 12: Yeah, and then it's you know, in terms of you know,

1862
01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:08,439
Speaker 12: still know the Chargers have not been eliminated, neither of

1863
01:25:08,479 --> 01:25:11,639
Speaker 12: the Raiders, but like Denver and Pittsburgh are all seven

1864
01:25:11,680 --> 01:25:14,920
Speaker 12: and seven, like you're gonna have five through you have

1865
01:25:15,000 --> 01:25:18,640
Speaker 12: five through nine, really, because Pittsburgh's not winning three in

1866
01:25:18,640 --> 01:25:22,320
Speaker 12: a row. You've got Buffalo, Houston, Indie, Cincy, and US.

1867
01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:24,920
Speaker 12: You have five teams for three spots, is what it

1868
01:25:24,960 --> 01:25:27,720
Speaker 12: comes down to. And so three of those teams are

1869
01:25:27,760 --> 01:25:31,360
Speaker 12: gonna get in. Two of them won't. The tiebreaker disadvantages

1870
01:25:31,439 --> 01:25:34,080
Speaker 12: right now are Houston and Buffalo they're outside looking in.

1871
01:25:34,080 --> 01:25:37,680
Speaker 12: Indian Cincinnati are both in right now. It says Cincinnati

1872
01:25:37,680 --> 01:25:40,439
Speaker 12: wins tiebreaker over Buffalo and Indianapolis based on head to

1873
01:25:40,479 --> 01:25:43,799
Speaker 12: head sweep division tiebreak was initially used to eliminate Houston.

1874
01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:47,360
Speaker 12: Indie wins tiebreakover Houston based on head to head percentage.

1875
01:25:47,520 --> 01:25:47,720
Speaker 4: Yep.

1876
01:25:48,320 --> 01:25:50,880
Speaker 12: So Houston is wins a tiebreak over Buffalo based on

1877
01:25:50,920 --> 01:25:53,960
Speaker 12: best win percentage in conference games. So that's where they're

1878
01:25:54,000 --> 01:25:57,600
Speaker 12: at at this point, and it's it's uphill for Buffalo.

1879
01:25:58,280 --> 01:26:00,519
Speaker 12: The AFC South is wide open right now. There are

1880
01:26:00,560 --> 01:26:04,640
Speaker 12: three teams in the South in the postseason with Jacksonville,

1881
01:26:04,720 --> 01:26:08,280
Speaker 12: I'm sorry to Jacksonville and Indy Houston looking in. They're

1882
01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 12: all eight and six. Three in the North are in.

1883
01:26:10,520 --> 01:26:13,960
Speaker 12: As the teams we alluded to, US, Cincinnati and Baltimore.

1884
01:26:14,400 --> 01:26:17,479
Speaker 12: Kansas City could get the one still despite being two

1885
01:26:17,520 --> 01:26:20,920
Speaker 12: games out of Baltimore because of their schedule. They it's

1886
01:26:20,960 --> 01:26:24,200
Speaker 12: not that crazy. It's like the Raiders, the Chargers, and

1887
01:26:24,280 --> 01:26:27,000
Speaker 12: the Chiefs are and the Bengals are. There three games

1888
01:26:27,080 --> 01:26:32,720
Speaker 12: left Raiders, Chiefs, Begals. Raiders, Raiders, Chargers, Bengals are the

1889
01:26:32,760 --> 01:26:35,519
Speaker 12: three left for Kansas City, whereas Baltimore and Miami play

1890
01:26:35,560 --> 01:26:38,960
Speaker 12: each other in Baltimore plays San Francisco this week. So

1891
01:26:39,160 --> 01:26:42,280
Speaker 12: that's where that comes from. That part could get dicey.

1892
01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:44,160
Speaker 12: We got to get to our Great Clips call of

1893
01:26:44,160 --> 01:26:45,479
Speaker 12: the game, presented by Great Clips.

Speaker 14: by by Rafa and you have a veteran play right

1901
01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:48,720

Speaker 14: head in the chief and away from Flac.

1903
01:27:51,000 --> 01:27:53,000
