1 00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,280 Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of the Falcons Audible, presented by 2 00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,840 Speaker 1: AT and T. I'm Derek Rackley and I'm back with 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 1: my fellaws, Dave Archer and DJ Shockley and fellows. We 4 00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:12,600 Speaker 1: get to talk about some actual action on the field, 5 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: and I'm not talking about preseason action. I'm talking about 6 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,680 Speaker 1: regular season action the Atlanta Falcons. They end up dropping 7 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 1: their season opener to the Philadelphia Eagles thirty two to six. Yes, 8 00:00:23,280 --> 00:00:25,320 Speaker 1: that's not the start that we all looked for, and 9 00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:29,319 Speaker 1: we'll dive into all of that. Hey, hello to the fellas. DJ. 10 00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: How are you doing, my man? Hey, rec man, it's always, 11 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:34,360 Speaker 1: like I mentioned, great to be on with you guys 12 00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: every single week, and I'm glad we got some football 13 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,560 Speaker 1: to talk about. Obviously not in the fashion we want, 14 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: not having a w but hey man, I'm here, I'm glad, 15 00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,200 Speaker 1: I'm excited and good to see you fellas. We will 16 00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 1: talk about some positives and negatives that came out of 17 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:50,479 Speaker 1: the game, but I know you've got a chance to 18 00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:52,320 Speaker 1: be back up in the booth. You saw the action, 19 00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,920 Speaker 1: you went back and watched it again. But you know what, 20 00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:58,200 Speaker 1: it's still exciting to talk about some regular season football. Yeah, 21 00:00:58,240 --> 00:01:00,640 Speaker 1: no question about it, and this was a very important 22 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,840 Speaker 1: weekend for our country. Nine to eleven, of course, was Saturday. 23 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: The NFL rolled out the carpet and really did a 24 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: phenomenal job of honoring those we lost almost three thousand 25 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,640 Speaker 1: lives we lost that day at nine to eleven, and 26 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:16,600 Speaker 1: then their tribute to those people, the tribute to the 27 00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:19,000 Speaker 1: families that still have to endure and have to go 28 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: through that. But I thought the national anthem, which they 29 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,479 Speaker 1: played simultaneously all around the league, it was the same 30 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: national anthem. It was phenomenal with the background of the 31 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,319 Speaker 1: first responders and all the people that were there that 32 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: day and tried to save lives, did save lives and 33 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: ultimately may have lost their lives as well. But just 34 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:41,160 Speaker 1: a really cool tribute, and it's just another reminder that 35 00:01:41,200 --> 00:01:43,559 Speaker 1: the NFL gets it and really does an amazing job 36 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:46,959 Speaker 1: with those type of situations. Yeah, that's a great point, Dave. 37 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 1: I think that all those situations that we've had, I 38 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,600 Speaker 1: mean I think about in my last twenty years since 39 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: I entered the league in two thousand, all the way 40 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: up through now, the NFL does an outstanding job with 41 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,120 Speaker 1: situations like this. Unfortunately, some of them have a negative tone, 42 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 1: but where do they find a way to make it 43 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,240 Speaker 1: positive and really shed some good light on it and 44 00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,840 Speaker 1: then really get people to think and remember about what 45 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,080 Speaker 1: happened in our country twenty years ago. So it's a 46 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,440 Speaker 1: great point there, Arch, all right, here's the rundown for 47 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,000 Speaker 1: this show. We will get some initial reactions to the 48 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 1: game this past weekend, we will dive into it a 49 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,840 Speaker 1: little bit more. We'll talk about some new faces, but 50 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 1: some of the same issues that we saw in previous years, 51 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: and then me and DJ and Arch we'll get into 52 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:31,640 Speaker 1: a little bit of story time and kind of reflect 53 00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 1: on our own careers on whether or not we had 54 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:39,079 Speaker 1: some good or bad opening week games, and then we'll 55 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 1: kind of spin it forward to some of the bigger 56 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 1: surprises that we saw throughout the league this year this 57 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 1: past weekend, and then of course we'll take a look 58 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: ahead next week and dive into that matchup a little 59 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,880 Speaker 1: bit more. But first of all, let's go ahead and 60 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: get some quick reactions to this game, and Arch, I'm 61 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: gonna go right back to you again. This is kind 62 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,080 Speaker 1: of like a thirty second to a one minute synopsis 63 00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,960 Speaker 1: of what you saw on the field this past weekend. 64 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,760 Speaker 1: And the loss to the Eagles. Yeah, really not gonna 65 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:05,880 Speaker 1: take me long here, Racket. I thought that there was 66 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: an outstanding beginning to this thing. There are some really 67 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 1: good positive you can take out of this. I know 68 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:12,480 Speaker 1: the Falcon fan is not going to look at it 69 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: that way. Thirty two six is all you ultimately see, 70 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:18,120 Speaker 1: and that's really all you ultimately should take in. But 71 00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: there are some things that you could look at that 72 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,480 Speaker 1: I think are building blocks, but ultimately not good enough. Yeah, 73 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: and DJ, what are your kind of initial reactions after 74 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:28,920 Speaker 1: you saw the game? I mean, it got off to 75 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 1: a grade start, but then the finish wasn't so good. 76 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,519 Speaker 1: But what were some of your initial reactions coming away 77 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:35,960 Speaker 1: from the game. The first thing was this is game one. 78 00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: A lot of people expected I think a lot in 79 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: this first game, as with a new staff, a bunch 80 00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: of new faces, a lot of things going on inside 81 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: this organization. Everybody expected Game one to just be blowing 82 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: out the water and you're scoring all these points and 83 00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 1: stopping everybody. It takes time, and I think it's if 84 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: you watch football, if you understand how this works. It's 85 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: gonna take time for guys in certain spots, coaches to 86 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,200 Speaker 1: understand what guys can do, and I think it's something 87 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 1: that we I don't think fans should overblow about it, 88 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 1: just being hey, you lost thirty two six yeat that matters. 89 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: The way you play matters, But it's game one. You've 90 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: got sixteen more chances to get this thing right. And 91 00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:15,880 Speaker 1: knowing Arthur Smith, he's gonna find a way to get 92 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: these guys playing at a higher level. And you know, 93 00:04:18,279 --> 00:04:20,360 Speaker 1: it's just week one, and I think we'll be better 94 00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: going into next week. You know, guys, I know if 95 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,200 Speaker 1: we go back, shoot, it was probably four or five 96 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 1: months to a previous podcast that we did, and it 97 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 1: was shortly after we got a new general manager and 98 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 1: head coach, and I think some of the media was 99 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: asking those guys, do you see this as a rebuild 100 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: or a team that's ready to win right now? And 101 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: that's a difficult question to answer when you're a new 102 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,320 Speaker 1: head coach and a general manager, because you want people 103 00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:46,640 Speaker 1: to believe that you know what you're doing and that 104 00:04:46,680 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: you're going to get this team to win right away. 105 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 1: But to DJ's point, it's not always like that. It's 106 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: not like you can bring in a new GM, a 107 00:04:53,279 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: new head coach in so many new faces and go 108 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: ahead and just blow out your first opponent. So you're right, DJ, 109 00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,760 Speaker 1: agree with it. Is the first week of the season. 110 00:05:01,800 --> 00:05:03,719 Speaker 1: There is a lot of football left. But on the 111 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,799 Speaker 1: flip side, that's definitely not the result that the head coach, 112 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:09,240 Speaker 1: the general manager, any of those fifty three guys on 113 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: that active roster expected from this past weekend. So yeah, 114 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: they learned from it, they put their tape on, They 115 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:17,640 Speaker 1: put the tape on, and then they just get better. 116 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 1: But let's dive into it a little bit more, because 117 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:22,719 Speaker 1: you know, we need to kind of dissect it a 118 00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,479 Speaker 1: little bit. We talked about it coming into the season, 119 00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: new head coach, new general manager, new schemes. We had 120 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,479 Speaker 1: the number four overall pick drafted, arguably the most athletic 121 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,320 Speaker 1: and best tight end that we've seen and I don't 122 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 1: know how many years, but yet we ended up losing 123 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: thirty two to six. So DJ, I'm gonna come right 124 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,200 Speaker 1: back to you. Let's expand in this a little bit 125 00:05:40,240 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 1: more in some of the things that you saw that 126 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 1: contributed to this loss, but maybe some also some optimism 127 00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: that you saw from the game as well. You know 128 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 1: what I think we and arch and recuse well, we 129 00:05:52,320 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 1: were talking about before we came on and Arch had 130 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 1: a chance to talk to coach, and you know, I 131 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 1: love to get if you know, you know, take on 132 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:00,960 Speaker 1: what coach say. And I think the number one thing 133 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 1: he talked about and the one thing I think we've 134 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:06,159 Speaker 1: seen from day one is the attention to detail, but 135 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: also being disciplined. And I think when you turn on 136 00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:10,880 Speaker 1: the tape or you watch this game, there were moments 137 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 1: in the game where the Falcons were not disciplined enough. 138 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: And you're talking about little things as far as procedural 139 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,760 Speaker 1: stuff that happens pre snap, and that's not something that 140 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: you look at it so, Okay, this is the reason 141 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:22,840 Speaker 1: why you lost the game, but it's a part of it. 142 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,760 Speaker 1: But it's also a big part of you becoming a 143 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:29,200 Speaker 1: better football team is not putting yourself in those bad spots, 144 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: not putting yourself in first and long. We're second and long, 145 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,920 Speaker 1: we're having a positive play, and then it turns around 146 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 1: and you have a holding pillnel, you have something that 147 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: happens pre snap that forces you to not be able 148 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,720 Speaker 1: to stay on track, especially offensively. So some of those 149 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,559 Speaker 1: things you look back on the game, you say, Okay, 150 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,400 Speaker 1: those things hurt you. Those things are part of the 151 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 1: ball game that you want to absolutely clear up and 152 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,159 Speaker 1: you gotta find ways to do it. But positively, I 153 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: think about our starkbo we first came on. Is you 154 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 1: start the game off and you look really good offensively. 155 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you're distributed ball all over the place, You're 156 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: run the ball. Think you have eighty six yards in 157 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: the first quarter of rushing the football. That is what 158 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:08,040 Speaker 1: I think everybody expected to see was the multiplicity in 159 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 1: his offensive maybe to do a lot of things. I mean, 160 00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,400 Speaker 1: you talk about the first play of the game and 161 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: it looks like just a routine completion to Calvin Ridley. 162 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 1: But you come out in that twenty two personnel where 163 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: you got two tight ends, you got both backs in 164 00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: the backfield, and it looks like, hey, we can run 165 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,080 Speaker 1: the football and it looks like a power formation. But 166 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:28,840 Speaker 1: you end up play action and you get your tight 167 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:31,239 Speaker 1: incident on the back side. You have a tight split 168 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: by Calvin Riley. Here comes a nice big completion to 169 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 1: start the ball game. You're aggressive. Those are things that 170 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:37,600 Speaker 1: you can build on because you can see what you 171 00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 1: can do with this kind of offense with these type 172 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,120 Speaker 1: of players, in these type of situations. So there's tons 173 00:07:43,120 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: to build on, especially on both sides of the ball. 174 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: But I think the biggest thing I take away is 175 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 1: the attention to detail of some of the things you 176 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 1: do pre snap that hurts you when you're trying to 177 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,600 Speaker 1: get you a drive starter or trying to get your 178 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: team into a better spot. Yeah, DJ just talked about 179 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,480 Speaker 1: some of the positives. Arch, Let's just let's kind of 180 00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 1: go down that same line, because before we came on, 181 00:08:03,800 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 1: you went back and you watched the tape and you said, 182 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:07,680 Speaker 1: you know what, there was some really good things that 183 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,920 Speaker 1: came out of it. So why don't you tell us 184 00:08:09,960 --> 00:08:11,800 Speaker 1: some of the things that you saw, either when you 185 00:08:11,880 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 1: called the game initially or when you went back and 186 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: looked at the tape. That's showing you some promise from 187 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 1: this point on. Well, in particular, we knew Philly coming 188 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: in was really good upfront. Their defensive front is probably 189 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,080 Speaker 1: as good as there is across the league. Not saying 190 00:08:26,120 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: they're the best, but they're certainly. In the conversation, it's 191 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:31,240 Speaker 1: a team that had forty nine sacks a year ago. 192 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 1: They were salty against the run. So you wanted to 193 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 1: come out and you wanted to establish the run game. 194 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 1: Shock mentioned the opening playoff, thought that was a nice 195 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,400 Speaker 1: little ice breaker to say, hey, wait a minute, we're 196 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,240 Speaker 1: not just gonna run it, we're gonna throw it. Got 197 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: ridly the football and so now let's go run the football, 198 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 1: and they came off the ball. I saw a tape 199 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:51,959 Speaker 1: where a number of players Jalen Mayfield, Matt Hennessy, Chris Lynchton, 200 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:54,839 Speaker 1: those interior three who I think ultimately are going to 201 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 1: be the keys to whether you're going to be able 202 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,240 Speaker 1: to move the football both through the air and on 203 00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:01,959 Speaker 1: the ground. The interior three offensive lineman had Fletcher Cox, 204 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:07,080 Speaker 1: Javon Hargrove, Hassan Ridgeway had them eight ten yards off 205 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:10,280 Speaker 1: the ball, blowing them off the ball, where Cordarol Patterson 206 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: and Mike Davis were fine cutback lanes running the football. 207 00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:15,480 Speaker 1: Shock talking about the eighty six yards the first quarter, 208 00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: they had one hundred and ten yards rushing at halftime. Okay, 209 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:20,240 Speaker 1: you're on your way to a two hundred yard day. 210 00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: And we know that if you lay two hundred yards 211 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: on somebody on the ground in a game, you have 212 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 1: kicked their rear. Indy. Now it didn't get there, and 213 00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: Philly made some adjustments, which is part of the negative 214 00:09:31,280 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: where you've got to figure out, don't let that change. 215 00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:36,840 Speaker 1: The equation change in the second half. But when you 216 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 1: start talking about the things you want to do in 217 00:09:39,200 --> 00:09:43,319 Speaker 1: the capabilities you have, the capabilities do that, red zone 218 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: deficiencies reared their ugly head again. You talked about set 219 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,120 Speaker 1: rack some of the things, some of the same problems 220 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 1: that we've had in the past. That's a problem we've 221 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 1: had in the past. Part of it had to do 222 00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 1: with the lack of attention to detail, lined up wrong 223 00:09:55,840 --> 00:09:59,240 Speaker 1: on a formation, jumped offside, all of a sudden you're 224 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 1: back back up against the chains. Those are things you 225 00:10:01,840 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 1: have to eliminate. But if you're looking for stuff to 226 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:05,880 Speaker 1: hang your head on, go back and look at the 227 00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: first half of this game. This game with nine seconds 228 00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,640 Speaker 1: to go in the first half is seven to six. 229 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: That's what the score was in the game, and you 230 00:10:14,040 --> 00:10:16,160 Speaker 1: look up it's thirty two six. You think, what the 231 00:10:16,200 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 1: hell happened? We got our rear ends get Yeah, this 232 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: was a game through the half and you let it 233 00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:23,880 Speaker 1: get away from you in the second half. Some because 234 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,600 Speaker 1: of Philly made some adjustments and number two, the quarterback 235 00:10:26,640 --> 00:10:29,839 Speaker 1: for Philadelphia was a difference in the game. Yeah, and 236 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: I'll just chime in on a couple of little things 237 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,200 Speaker 1: that I saw and then we'll move forward. The things 238 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:37,439 Speaker 1: that I liked is you guys talked about Mike Davison, 239 00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:40,440 Speaker 1: Cordarrell Patterson. I saw some flashes that there's something to 240 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 1: be excited about that this running game for the Atlanta 241 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: Falcons is going to be and probably a good better 242 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,280 Speaker 1: shape than it's been the last couple of years. You 243 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 1: saw some of the explosiveness and obviously you got some 244 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: speed with the changeup of Patterson, and I liked that 245 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,880 Speaker 1: with the intent that Mike Davis runs. Obviously he's a bigger, 246 00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:59,080 Speaker 1: strong BAP he's gonna run people over, but he's also 247 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:01,320 Speaker 1: got the quickness to skate through some holes. So when 248 00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: he did see those, he took advantage, and you guys 249 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: talked about it. They ran the football pretty well, and 250 00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 1: I think that there's some promise for the rest of 251 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: the year. Here's what I didn't care for. The inconsistencies 252 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: on the line of scrimmage. And I'm not gonna say 253 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:16,200 Speaker 1: offensively or defense, and I'm gonna say both of them. 254 00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: There was just too many times where it was like 255 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:22,120 Speaker 1: good play, good play, bad play, pocket collapsing, Gotta get 256 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,000 Speaker 1: rid of the football, good play, defense, bad play. Way 257 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:29,600 Speaker 1: too many yards, way too many yards. Jalen Hurts getting 258 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,599 Speaker 1: outside of the pocket picking up a first down and 259 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: looked too easy, right. He didn't even really get touched 260 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 1: until he went out of bounds. And I think a 261 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: lot of that starts up front. Granted, that's the that's 262 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: the benefit that you have when you have a mobile quarterback. 263 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 1: He's got the ability to get outside the pocket, extend plays, 264 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:47,040 Speaker 1: pick up first downs. But I feel like that's gonna 265 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:49,280 Speaker 1: have to get shored up if the Falcons are gonna 266 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 1: take the next step, specifically on the defensive side of 267 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 1: the ball. So we talked a little bit about the 268 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: good and the bad. Let's take a step back here, guys, 269 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,200 Speaker 1: and Arch, I want to go to you. We're gonna 270 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,319 Speaker 1: do a little story time here. We're gonna talk about 271 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 1: maybe some of the worst opening week situations that leave had. 272 00:12:06,840 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: Maybe it's been in the pros back to high school. 273 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: So I hope you've thought about it a little bit, Arch, 274 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: but I thought way too much about pies one that's 275 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: you kind of wish you forgot. But we're gonna make 276 00:12:21,200 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 1: you remember it right now. Well, as it turns out, 277 00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 1: Falcon's opening day loss today or this weekend was the 278 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:31,680 Speaker 1: worst since nineteen eighty seven, which is a game I 279 00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 1: played in against Tampa. Runs handed to us Steve DeBerg 280 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,920 Speaker 1: through for three thirty five and five touchdowns and we've 281 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: got blown out by Tampa. Down to Tampa to start 282 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 1: the season off. I'd like to say that season ended well. 283 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 1: It did not. We did not get much better as 284 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:50,360 Speaker 1: a season went along. I could go back to college 285 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:54,200 Speaker 1: opening game of the my college my senior year, Chuck 286 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: Long and the Iowa Hawkeyes come to town. They blow 287 00:12:57,000 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: us out. We got ripped there and the season didn't 288 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 1: we got We were five hundred I think that year. 289 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 1: I will say that high school we lost to a 290 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 1: team that we could never beat in high school. Preston 291 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:10,440 Speaker 1: High School and Little Southeastern Ido beat us Dono twenty 292 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:13,320 Speaker 1: eight to six. We came back and won every game 293 00:13:13,400 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: after that and made it into the plast Now we 294 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 1: didn't go win the whole thing, but we made it 295 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: into the playoffs. So we did not let so I 296 00:13:19,360 --> 00:13:20,920 Speaker 1: had to go all the way back to high school. 297 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: We had to find a good memory to about getting 298 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: my butt kicked in the opening game. But I found 299 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:30,839 Speaker 1: one fans the hurt it. Sometimes you got to go 300 00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:32,800 Speaker 1: back to high school. But you can come out on 301 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:34,920 Speaker 1: the wrong side of the opening game and you can 302 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 1: still get back to the postseason. So there's the promise. DJ. 303 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,200 Speaker 1: I know you won a lot of games at Georgia, 304 00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 1: so maybe maybe it's not gonna be your college. Yeah, 305 00:13:42,559 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 1: it ain't gonna beat the right man, ain't gonna be 306 00:13:44,040 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: the dogs your Oh well, first off, arch I'm sorry. 307 00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,240 Speaker 1: I will still ringing their ugly head in twenty twenty 308 00:13:53,280 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: one to the to the Cyclones. So thanks for reminding me, um, 309 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:00,280 Speaker 1: But uh, I really have like you mened have many 310 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,160 Speaker 1: in college. They didn't have many in high school. But 311 00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:04,920 Speaker 1: I did have one my second year here with the 312 00:14:04,960 --> 00:14:07,760 Speaker 1: Falcons Archer who remember this really well two thousand and 313 00:14:07,760 --> 00:14:11,400 Speaker 1: seven were going the road to Minnesota. We end up 314 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 1: losing his game twenty four to three ap Russia's for 315 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:16,640 Speaker 1: a hundred yards in the game. He has like a 316 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: sixty yards his career. Yes, he bought that. We had 317 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:24,200 Speaker 1: My main Joey Harrington was was a quarterback at the time. 318 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: He got sacked like six times we had a couple 319 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,960 Speaker 1: of interceptions in the game, both of them went for 320 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:32,800 Speaker 1: pick six. Is it was just not a good day. 321 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: And to Arch's kind of point, we didn't really end 322 00:14:35,440 --> 00:14:37,840 Speaker 1: the season pretty well. We ended up seven to nine 323 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:40,600 Speaker 1: a year. I think everybody remembers what happened that year 324 00:14:40,640 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: when I coach leaving us and all that. But at 325 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: the end of that year, we did draft the guy 326 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,960 Speaker 1: who is still putting up numbers to this day, which 327 00:14:50,000 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 1: is Matt Ryan. So obviously that season led to us 328 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,520 Speaker 1: getting the franchise guy and my man, Mattie Ice. So 329 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: that is a great spin on that. Now we had 330 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:05,320 Speaker 1: horrible years so we can get Matt. Positive. It wasn't right, 331 00:15:05,480 --> 00:15:07,680 Speaker 1: It was not. It was not the year we wanted. 332 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:11,720 Speaker 1: But I guess from an organizational standpoint, it worked out 333 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: pretty well that we got Matt. Obviously that man, I 334 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 1: wasn't gonna play anymore because you know, they paid me 335 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,280 Speaker 1: a lot of money and he was the guy. Uh 336 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,760 Speaker 1: So I just had to make sure I found my 337 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: way on the backup part. But it was fun though. Man, 338 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: it was good. I mean, that was a tough day 339 00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: for his rack. Obviously not a good day. I can't 340 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: wait to hear the worst day of your first ever 341 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:34,960 Speaker 1: bring it. Because I was with Atlanta for the in 342 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 1: the early two thousands and and and Arch can tell you. 343 00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 1: I mean, DJ, you were still in college at this time, 344 00:15:39,720 --> 00:15:41,680 Speaker 1: but like we were okay. You know, it was like 345 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: we had some losing seasons and we went to the 346 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:46,040 Speaker 1: playoffs a couple of times. But I had to go 347 00:15:46,080 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 1: back and look at it because I'm not like a 348 00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 1: personal statistician, so I don't remember all these things. But 349 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: I actually went four and two in my six years 350 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:56,480 Speaker 1: with Atlanta in opening games. Granted, really went to the 351 00:15:56,480 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: playoffs a couple of times, but still four and two 352 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 1: is pretty good. In Arch micro remember this. But there 353 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,200 Speaker 1: was a year as two thousand and one, and I'm 354 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:05,160 Speaker 1: gonna give you the date, and obviously people are going 355 00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:08,840 Speaker 1: to understand its September ninth, two thousand and one. I 356 00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:11,040 Speaker 1: think everybody knows what happened a couple of days after that, 357 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:13,800 Speaker 1: but we went out to San Francisco and we were 358 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,840 Speaker 1: playing in the forty nine ers and we were up 359 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 1: thirteen to three going into the fourth quarter. And if 360 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:21,960 Speaker 1: I tell you we lost the game, that kind of 361 00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 1: tells you how it goes. They ended up tying it 362 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 1: up in the fourth quarter, we went to overtime, they 363 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:28,280 Speaker 1: kick a field goal, we end up losing the game 364 00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:31,560 Speaker 1: sixteen to thirteen. And anytime you're winning going into the 365 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 1: fourth quarter after you had to travel all the way 366 00:16:33,840 --> 00:16:38,040 Speaker 1: across the country comeback empty handed, you're not in a 367 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 1: good because you've got a five hour flight that you've 368 00:16:40,520 --> 00:16:43,080 Speaker 1: got to reflect on how you lost the game in 369 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 1: the fourth quarter, and nobody's happy. Coach just get up 370 00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: to use the bathroom and they're not even making eye 371 00:16:48,320 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 1: contact when they love good people fight the long flight 372 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: and as I mentioned, obviously we know what happened in 373 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 1: this country two days after that loss was pretty awful. 374 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: But that was that was not a fun time. But 375 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:05,959 Speaker 1: to your point, you know, you can learn from these 376 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: lopsided losses, and you just you gotta take it one 377 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,480 Speaker 1: game at a time. It is interesting because I heard 378 00:17:12,560 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: Terry Fonteau this morning. He came and spoke to the 379 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: school that my daughters go to, and he talked about 380 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,640 Speaker 1: staying in the moment. And it's interesting that he mentioned 381 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: that because you can apply that in the game like 382 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,280 Speaker 1: that seems like it's a phrase guys that's thrown around 383 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: all the time. Right, stay in the moment. Okay, yes, 384 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: stay in the moment. I got a coach. But like DJ, 385 00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 1: you talked about the formation issue in the red zone. Right, 386 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 1: if you stay in the moment and focus on exactly 387 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: what you have to do, that doesn't happen if you 388 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: start getting ahead at yourself. Oh this is my release 389 00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: on this player. I got to block this guy, and 390 00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:48,920 Speaker 1: you don't pay attention to the little things as far 391 00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:52,000 Speaker 1: as just lining up that can make a big difference 392 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: in the complection of a game. And coming away with 393 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 1: a field goal when there should have been two touchdowns 394 00:17:56,560 --> 00:18:00,439 Speaker 1: on those drives was pretty big. So it's because sometimes 395 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: it's interesting. Would staying in the moment players need to 396 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,240 Speaker 1: do that? All right, let's take a step back. We're 397 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 1: gonna let's look at the NFL here, because there was 398 00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 1: some interesting games throughout the course of Week one, and Arch, 399 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,080 Speaker 1: I'm gonna let you start. What was your biggest surprise 400 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:15,880 Speaker 1: of Week one. I've got a couple that come right 401 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 1: to the top of my mind, but I want to 402 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,080 Speaker 1: hear what yours is. Well. The Green Bay game certainly 403 00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:24,000 Speaker 1: was one in Jacksonville where New Orleans would display because 404 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 1: of Hurricane Ida. So they had been in Dallas practicing 405 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 1: and then they went over to Jacksonville, I don't know 406 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:32,040 Speaker 1: a few days before to play this game Jacksonville on 407 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:35,119 Speaker 1: the road at Houston, so they had a chance to 408 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 1: use that facility. Green Bay comes down, and there's been 409 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,919 Speaker 1: so much talk about green Bay and Aaron Rodgers and 410 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:45,000 Speaker 1: the discourse between the front office and him and all 411 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. But you knew that this team 412 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: had been to back to back AFC championship games and 413 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:52,160 Speaker 1: are an odds on favor to go back again this year. 414 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,879 Speaker 1: And New Orleans, who took them a part a year ago, 415 00:18:56,080 --> 00:18:59,399 Speaker 1: took them apart again. Jamis Winston threw the ball like 416 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:02,080 Speaker 1: nine times and through five of them for touchdowns or 417 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,399 Speaker 1: whatever it was. He was outstanding. Obviously. That's that's the 418 00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,440 Speaker 1: obvious one. I'm gonna give you one that's a little 419 00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:10,239 Speaker 1: bit more off the radar, though. I'm gonna give you 420 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:14,080 Speaker 1: the win by the Arizona Cardinals against the Tennessee Titans. 421 00:19:14,480 --> 00:19:18,879 Speaker 1: Titans team no longer with Arthur Smith's offensive coordinator, struggled 422 00:19:18,920 --> 00:19:22,360 Speaker 1: on offense, and this is a team that is very 423 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,280 Speaker 1: much the same team that was a playoff team a 424 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 1: year ago, Kyler Murray and that group for Arizona, and 425 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:32,359 Speaker 1: on the defense side, they took the Titans apart. I 426 00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,120 Speaker 1: thought that was a really impressive win for a team 427 00:19:35,160 --> 00:19:36,800 Speaker 1: that I think a lot of people kind of fancy 428 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,520 Speaker 1: as a dark horse in the NFC, in the Arizona 429 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,640 Speaker 1: Cardinals in a really tough NFC West. Yeah. I mean 430 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 1: for me, I got a couple of them. And obviously 431 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,399 Speaker 1: that that Green Bay one was mind boggling in the 432 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 1: fact that if you went into that ball game and 433 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,959 Speaker 1: you said, hey, Jameis Winston will outdue Aaron Rodgers and 434 00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: he will have the interceptions I mean air Rodgers throwing 435 00:19:56,200 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 1: interceptions in the red zone. It's just something he never does. 436 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: To see that come out with mind boggling for sure. 437 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: The one that really comes to mind me is the 438 00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:10,119 Speaker 1: game as we record this is Tuesday. Last night. The 439 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:13,119 Speaker 1: game with the Raiders and Baltimore was pretty crazy. I mean, 440 00:20:13,119 --> 00:20:14,960 Speaker 1: not a lot of people talked about Ken Lamar take 441 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 1: the next step. Would he be able to be the 442 00:20:16,920 --> 00:20:18,600 Speaker 1: team throwing the football? I did it. I thought he 443 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:20,639 Speaker 1: did it both with his arms and his legs, and 444 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,280 Speaker 1: that ball game had a chance to win. I know 445 00:20:22,320 --> 00:20:24,320 Speaker 1: you had a couple of fumbles laid in that ball 446 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: game to kind of help the Raiders get that win. 447 00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,920 Speaker 1: But it was an unbelievable thought performance for a guy 448 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 1: who had just lost his top two backs coming into 449 00:20:33,359 --> 00:20:36,359 Speaker 1: the first game of the season and was able to 450 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 1: kind of put that team on his back and give 451 00:20:38,800 --> 00:20:41,680 Speaker 1: him a chance to win that ball game. Well, what 452 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:43,760 Speaker 1: was pretty spectacular for me And the other one was 453 00:20:44,600 --> 00:20:48,080 Speaker 1: out in La Man watching Stafford go against that Bears 454 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:50,359 Speaker 1: defense and kind of carved him up because I think 455 00:20:50,400 --> 00:20:53,120 Speaker 1: a lot of people thought that Bears defense would be 456 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:55,399 Speaker 1: one of the tops in the league. And he went 457 00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,680 Speaker 1: out and through four, you know, three hundred and three 458 00:20:57,720 --> 00:21:01,000 Speaker 1: touchdowns and obviously that that can action with him and 459 00:21:01,080 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 1: McVeigh is something that everybody's looking forward to watching. But 460 00:21:03,960 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: I thought that the Bears defense would hold up a 461 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 1: little bit better, uh, you know, just because of how 462 00:21:09,240 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: good they were supposed to be coming into that ballgame. 463 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:14,399 Speaker 1: And they still will be probably pretty good. But I 464 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: was an outstanding performer from from LA and ready did 465 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,680 Speaker 1: their rack as he went and found a Bulldog quarterback. 466 00:21:19,720 --> 00:21:21,480 Speaker 1: It just so happened. I don't know how that happened. 467 00:21:23,960 --> 00:21:30,119 Speaker 1: At some point cleal Man, it is Hey, wll to 468 00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:32,080 Speaker 1: your point, though, d I will tell you this past 469 00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: weekend I called the Ohio State Oregon game and the 470 00:21:34,280 --> 00:21:36,240 Speaker 1: guy that I worked with my play by play guy, 471 00:21:36,320 --> 00:21:38,200 Speaker 1: was Dan Miller, who's the play by play guy for 472 00:21:38,240 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions. So we started talking about Matt Stafford 473 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 1: a little bit and obviously him not being a part 474 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:46,240 Speaker 1: of the Lions, and he was just telling me that 475 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 1: how good Matt Stafford is, but he never had a 476 00:21:50,440 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 1: defense to help him out. It was just like he 477 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,679 Speaker 1: had to keep scoring points and scoring points, and it 478 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 1: was never enough because he didn't have a defense. And 479 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: now look he goes out and he gets one beast 480 00:22:00,840 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 1: of a defense playing behind him, and he's still playing 481 00:22:03,359 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 1: at an extremely high level. One other game that I 482 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: thought was interesting, I'll go really quick here was Houston 483 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 1: and Jacksonville. Not to say that Jacksonville should have won 484 00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:14,480 Speaker 1: a game, right, but the fact that they had the 485 00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:16,800 Speaker 1: number one overall pick in Trevor Lawrence take in the 486 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 1: field for the first time in an NFL uniform, and 487 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 1: the Houston Texans had a quarterback that was not named 488 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: to Shaun Watson playing for them, and they still ended 489 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: up throwing thirty throwing up thirty seven points there, four 490 00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 1: for six in the red zone. So offense looked like 491 00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:33,720 Speaker 1: it was still really good without the Shaun Watson playing 492 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 1: that quarterback position. So Houston Texans get off to a 493 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:42,200 Speaker 1: one and o star. Successful red zones aren't just I mean, reck, 494 00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 1: Let's leave successful red zones out of this. I mean, 495 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:49,399 Speaker 1: come on, we'll be yeah, okay, okay. So if that's 496 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: the case, we got to talk about sore red zone. Okay, 497 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 1: Let's let's go back to the Falcons and let's spin 498 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: this ahead. All right, So what can the Falcons take 499 00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:01,719 Speaker 1: away from this loss to get better and become a 500 00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: better team in week two, in week six and week ten, DJ, 501 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: I'm gonna come back to you, and where do you 502 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:11,000 Speaker 1: feel like the future of this team looks like right now? Well, 503 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:14,440 Speaker 1: I think anytime you have a ball game in which 504 00:23:14,440 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: where you come in feeling good about yourself or you 505 00:23:17,280 --> 00:23:19,439 Speaker 1: feel good about the product that's about to come on 506 00:23:19,480 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: the field, and you lose in the fashion that you do, 507 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 1: it kind of refocus you early. It gives you a 508 00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: different mindset going into week two that when you turn 509 00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: on that tape, that's something you don't ever want to 510 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:34,200 Speaker 1: see you again. I mean, it's one of those things 511 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: where if your little brother or your big brother is 512 00:23:37,600 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: beating you up, and every day you come home, you 513 00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,359 Speaker 1: find a way to say, hey, this's not gonna happen again. 514 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 1: I think this is where the falcon is. After week one, 515 00:23:45,960 --> 00:23:48,440 Speaker 1: you say, hey, let's go out and let's not make 516 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: sure this occurrence is never put on tape again. Let's 517 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: make sure that we're the more physical team. Let's make 518 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: sure we're in the team that's not having thirteen fourteen 519 00:23:55,880 --> 00:23:58,399 Speaker 1: penalties in a ball game, and we hurt ourselves. I 520 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:02,399 Speaker 1: think because happened so soon, it happens so early, it 521 00:24:02,440 --> 00:24:04,960 Speaker 1: gives guys a chance to see exactly where they are 522 00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:07,840 Speaker 1: from jump Street. And now you're going to the next 523 00:24:07,880 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: ball games. Feeling is that, Okay, I cannot make the 524 00:24:10,920 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: same mistake twice. I can't go into the next ball 525 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: game doing the same thing as I did, because ultimately 526 00:24:16,320 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: I saw what happen when that happened. You lose ball games, 527 00:24:18,760 --> 00:24:21,520 Speaker 1: you hurt your team, you're not in position to win games. 528 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 1: And we got to be honest, there's a lot of 529 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,639 Speaker 1: excitement around this team. We talked about Terry Farnow. We 530 00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 1: talked about author Smith, We talked about some of the 531 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:30,600 Speaker 1: new faces. There are a lot of fans, they are 532 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,320 Speaker 1: excited to see this ball club. There are a lot 533 00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:34,679 Speaker 1: of people who expect big things to happen. And I 534 00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,440 Speaker 1: still believe this can happen for this ball club even 535 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 1: though it's just week one. But putting that stuff on tape, 536 00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: it reminds you that that's something I don't want to 537 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: see again, because these guys have to look at themselves 538 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 1: in the mirror and say, hey, we can't allow us 539 00:24:47,520 --> 00:24:51,119 Speaker 1: to happen again. Are same thing to you? Where do 540 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,600 Speaker 1: you see this team going in the next two weeks, 541 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: six weeks, eight weeks is twenty one? Season continues to 542 00:24:57,720 --> 00:25:00,840 Speaker 1: roll on. Yeah, I like him. I like him getting better. Rack. 543 00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 1: I think that there's a number of things you look at. 544 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 1: Number one, the head football coach. I thought he was 545 00:25:05,200 --> 00:25:08,320 Speaker 1: very introspective after the game, talked about, okay, is my 546 00:25:08,440 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 1: messaging correctly, my coaching correctly because of some of the 547 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 1: occurrences that had maybe the procedural stuff as he coaching it. 548 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 1: I thought that was very revealing, very transparent for him 549 00:25:19,040 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: to talk about that most coaches won't say anything about 550 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,920 Speaker 1: their scenario, what they're trying to do. I thought Arthur 551 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,280 Speaker 1: was very clear about that that, Hey, I'm gonna look 552 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 1: at myself. What do I need to do. There's some 553 00:25:29,400 --> 00:25:31,199 Speaker 1: play calls that I can go to. He talked a 554 00:25:31,200 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 1: lot about the last series of downs prior to the 555 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,160 Speaker 1: first half where Atlanta was backed up and was trying 556 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:39,560 Speaker 1: to move the ball out, run some clock, maybe get 557 00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 1: a first down. He got hamstrung because of a penalty. 558 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 1: Could he have been more aggressive there? I thought he 559 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:46,800 Speaker 1: was very transparent about so maybe some of the things 560 00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:48,920 Speaker 1: he could do a little bit better and a little 561 00:25:48,920 --> 00:25:51,840 Speaker 1: bit different. Remember, he's still learning this roster as well. 562 00:25:52,119 --> 00:25:53,720 Speaker 1: I think there's a growing period that has to go 563 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,800 Speaker 1: with the coaching staff as well to kind of know 564 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: their personnel, maybe some of their weaknesses, what they can 565 00:25:59,160 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: and can't get away with, because, let's face it, the 566 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:04,840 Speaker 1: preseason was about trying to figure out who are your 567 00:26:04,840 --> 00:26:06,959 Speaker 1: young guys and who's the depth on this team? How 568 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,119 Speaker 1: does that look now we get into the nuts and 569 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,280 Speaker 1: bolts of the games. What can we can and can't 570 00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:13,199 Speaker 1: we get away with with our twenty two that's on 571 00:26:13,200 --> 00:26:15,199 Speaker 1: the field or the twenty eight guys that are on 572 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,000 Speaker 1: the field, and then when you look at what they 573 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:21,480 Speaker 1: did defensively, you're talking about a lot of times DMPAS 574 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,960 Speaker 1: talks about pressure in the quarterback, they don't talk about sacks. Yeah, 575 00:26:24,960 --> 00:26:27,119 Speaker 1: sacks are residual effect pot and you get to the 576 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,119 Speaker 1: quarterback on the ground. This is probably is elusive a 577 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:33,400 Speaker 1: quarterback as you're gonna see all year long. And he 578 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:36,480 Speaker 1: he made you pay for it. The guy this next weekend, 579 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 1: he's not going anywhere now. The ball's coming out. But 580 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: that's where styles make fights. You could say, Okay, you 581 00:26:43,440 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: got the Super Bowl champs this weekend, we're gonna get 582 00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: our rare ends kicked. Well, some of the blitz is 583 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:50,239 Speaker 1: that they came with and the pressures they came with. 584 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,199 Speaker 1: Brady's going to be on the ground with those in 585 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,920 Speaker 1: less Tampa makes an adjustment to try to block those, 586 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 1: and then DMPs is going to have something else for it. 587 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,680 Speaker 1: I'm encouraged by that. Isaiah Oliver coming off the edge 588 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,200 Speaker 1: clean and Jalen Hurt steps around him, gets him outside 589 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 1: and throws the football for a fifteen yard game That 590 00:27:07,400 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: ain't happening this weekend. Yeah, okay, now Brady may get 591 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:11,720 Speaker 1: it out and get hit in the mouth. We'll have 592 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 1: to wait and see. But if I'm on coverage that 593 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: may be going the other way. Those are the kind 594 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 1: of things that I'm excited about. You had a special 595 00:27:18,560 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 1: moment with a quarterback that had a special day. Now, 596 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,240 Speaker 1: is he a Pro bowler, a Super Bowl champ? No, 597 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,360 Speaker 1: But I think he's a guy that has a chance 598 00:27:25,400 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 1: to maybe make some dad do some damage in this league. 599 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,120 Speaker 1: You're not going to see that every weekend. And I'm 600 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 1: not trying to make Jalen Hurts the next great quarterback. 601 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:36,000 Speaker 1: But he presented a problem that Atlanta couldn't solve. That 602 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 1: problem doesn't exist this weekend. Hey, Rack, before you add 603 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,280 Speaker 1: I want to add one more thing. When ours talked 604 00:27:43,320 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 1: about author Smith being a guy who owned up to 605 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,680 Speaker 1: some of the things that he wants to do better 606 00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,680 Speaker 1: or how he can coach better, there's a flipped side 607 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: to it as well. All three of us have played 608 00:27:54,040 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: in this league. All three of us has played college ball. 609 00:27:57,119 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 1: At at the end of the day, when your coach 610 00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: puts together a plan, it's on the players to go 611 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:04,399 Speaker 1: out and execute. So I think a lot of this 612 00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 1: is let's go execute what the coach put in front 613 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:09,920 Speaker 1: of us. You can go out and you can call 614 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: all the players you want, or the coach can say 615 00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 1: he did this and that. But the end of the day, 616 00:28:13,640 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: there's no coach on the field. It's still eleven guys, 617 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 1: and you got to go prove it to your other 618 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 1: teammates that you can ask you at a high level. 619 00:28:20,440 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 1: So I think all that comes down to it as well. 620 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: The players have to say, hey, we're gonna get the 621 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 1: job done. And it's not all just on the coaches. 622 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:28,199 Speaker 1: We got to show up and do our job just 623 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:32,360 Speaker 1: as well. And one thing I'll tell you is when 624 00:28:32,480 --> 00:28:34,280 Speaker 1: when I was playing for Jim Mora, he used to 625 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:37,440 Speaker 1: always say, if you point the finger at somebody, there's 626 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 1: three of them pointing back at yourself. Right. So to me, 627 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: that's the same kind of deals as a player. You 628 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:44,760 Speaker 1: could sit there and try to point fingers of well, 629 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 1: this is why we didn't win, this is why we 630 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: didn't score points, but there's three of them pointing back 631 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:51,760 Speaker 1: at yourself. What could you have done better to help 632 00:28:51,800 --> 00:28:53,680 Speaker 1: this team end up winning? DJ I'm gonna come right 633 00:28:53,720 --> 00:28:57,200 Speaker 1: back to you real quick. Thirty seconds, all right, thirty seconds. 634 00:28:57,960 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: You guys talked about it. We got to go. This week. 635 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:02,760 Speaker 1: Falcon's going on the road against Tom Brady. They're gonna 636 00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:04,760 Speaker 1: be playing with confidence. They got a big victory against 637 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: the Cowboys on the previous Thursday night. I want you 638 00:29:08,160 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: to give me one or two keys and thirty seconds 639 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: or less that the Falcons need to do if they 640 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:17,040 Speaker 1: want to win that football game. Alignment and assignment. You 641 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: gotta get lined up and you gotta do your job, 642 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:20,560 Speaker 1: because at the end of the day, this is a team, 643 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: especially on the offenses side of the ball, that has 644 00:29:22,440 --> 00:29:24,720 Speaker 1: a bunch of weapons. And if you're not lying right, 645 00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: guess what they're gonna find that matchup, They're gonna create 646 00:29:26,920 --> 00:29:29,040 Speaker 1: some problems for you, and you're gonna be in trouble. 647 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 1: And then you got to create some issues for Brady 648 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 1: on the other side. With as far as you're assignment 649 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 1: part of getting after people and they're on the defense 650 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:37,520 Speaker 1: side of the ball, we know how good they're supposed 651 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 1: to be. You know, twenty two guys coming back offensively, 652 00:29:40,440 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: get a line we solve this week. You can get 653 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 1: a line a couple of times and you hurt yourself. 654 00:29:44,720 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: Now go out and execute it and put the pressure 655 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 1: on them. Everybody spects them to be the next great 656 00:29:50,520 --> 00:29:52,880 Speaker 1: best or whatever it is. Put the pressure on them. Man, 657 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 1: you are just as talented as those guys. Go out 658 00:29:55,200 --> 00:29:59,200 Speaker 1: and prove it. So arch same thing. Thirty seconds. What 659 00:29:59,320 --> 00:30:01,680 Speaker 1: are the falcons due to? Slow down the Bucks? I 660 00:30:01,680 --> 00:30:05,040 Speaker 1: would say, eliminate negative plays, stay stay in stay in 661 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,480 Speaker 1: front of the chaine the best you can. And that's 662 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 1: easier said to done. These guys are gonna make some plays, 663 00:30:09,640 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 1: but limit those. And maybe more importantly, if you go 664 00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:15,960 Speaker 1: back to the December game, Atlanta lost to Tampa thirty 665 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:19,760 Speaker 1: one twenty seven in our building, they had one explosive 666 00:30:19,760 --> 00:30:22,120 Speaker 1: play in the first half. They trailed seventeen to nothing 667 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 1: at halftime. They had nine explosive plays in the second half. 668 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,800 Speaker 1: That's fifteen yard ten fifteen yards or more, and they 669 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,280 Speaker 1: won the football game thirty one twenty seven. Defensively, limit 670 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,360 Speaker 1: the explosive plays. That's what Tampa lives on, are the 671 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: big play. You know, it's so interesting you and I 672 00:30:37,520 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: are in the same wavelength, Dave, because I was going 673 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 1: to say, defensively, they have to tackle, because if there's 674 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 1: one thing, Tom Brady's getting that ball out, Okay, he's 675 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:47,480 Speaker 1: not gonna hold onto it, he's gonna put it in 676 00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: the hands of a receiver. Get them down on the 677 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: ground because you missed the tackles and that's when those 678 00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: explosive plays come. So tackling getting those guys down on 679 00:30:55,920 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: the ground, I think is going to be key to 680 00:30:57,560 --> 00:30:59,920 Speaker 1: slowing down the Tampa Bay Bucks. All Right, Lanta Falcon 681 00:31:00,080 --> 00:31:03,400 Speaker 1: end up dropping dropping their opening week matchup against the 682 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:05,760 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles thirty two to six.
