It's appropriate that the Bengals were in 20 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,440 Speaker 1: Baltimore this week because it's the home of one of 21 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 1: the most famous streaks in sports, cal Ripken's incredible run 22 00:01:24,760 --> 00:01:27,680 Speaker 1: of playing in two thousand, six hundred and thirty two 23 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: consecutive games over a sixteen year period with the Orioles.

Oh and there's another reason 29 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: why Baltimore was an appropriate site for Pj's six hundredth 30 00:01:54,680 --> 00:02:00,200 Speaker 1: consecutive game. Nobody, and I mean nobody loved there's a 31 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: Baltimore crab cake more than PJ. Now, time for the 32 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:10,760 Speaker 1: radio replays from Thursday's AFC North showdown in Baltimore. On 33 00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 1: a Thursday night, almost exactly one year ago, Joe Burrow's 34 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,320 Speaker 1: fourth NFL season came to an abrupt end when he 35 00:02:17,400 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 1: tore a ligament in his right wrist. Tonight, Joe returns 36 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:23,720 Speaker 1: to the scene of that injury. 37 00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:24,160 Speaker 2: M and T. 38 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 1: Banks Stadium here in Baltimore, looking to lead the Bengals 39 00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 1: to a season altering win over the Ravens, and it 40 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 1: is time for the pig skin to fly in prime time. 41 00:02:36,639 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: First and goal from the one, the Bengals lineup in 42 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: an I formation. Burrow hands it off to Chase Brown. 43 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: Brown runs into the end zone, standing up. Touchdown Bengals 44 00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:48,959 Speaker 1: to begin the game. Four down linemen in the game 45 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: for Cincinnati. First in goal from the sixth Lamar in 46 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,359 Speaker 1: the gun. He runs a design quarterback right now. He 47 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: floats it into the end zone and it is caught 48 00:02:56,639 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 1: by Agalore for the Ravens touchdown. Look like it was 49 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,480 Speaker 1: going to be a run all the way, and then 50 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: Lamar pulled up, floated a pass into the end zone 51 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: and there was nobody close to Nelson Agaloa. Three receivers 52 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,600 Speaker 1: go out to the right, Kasiki Hudson and Yosi Boss 53 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 1: Jamar chase out to the left. Two defenders on Jamar's side. 54 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: Burton Burrow rather rolling right now, he throws caught right 55 00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,119 Speaker 1: at the goal line. It is a touchdown. Tanner Hudson 56 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:27,679 Speaker 1: with an emphatic gronk like spike. As the Bengals have 57 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 1: taken the lead with thirty seconds left in the half. 58 00:03:30,720 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 1: Burrow will look to throw. Moving to his right now 59 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 1: he throws over the medline. It's coming to run. 60 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: Chase of the forty five, angling toward the farce on 61 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: in a thirty twenty fifteen ten five boo touchdownwn Jamar 62 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,080 Speaker 2: Chase does it again. 63 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 1: He's dancing in the back of the end zone, turning 64 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:54,280 Speaker 1: a short pass over the middle into a sixty seven 65 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: yard highlight. Burrow catches the shotgun, snap gives it to Chase. 66 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:01,760 Speaker 1: Brown again fights his way forward thirty one. The ball 67 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:06,360 Speaker 1: comes out the Ravens habit. They recovered at the thirty 68 00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: one yard line, first and goal inside the one. Jackson, 69 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: under center, hands it off. Derek Henry, trying to bounce 70 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: it wide to. 71 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,040 Speaker 2: The left, lurches. 72 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,479 Speaker 1: Forward and carries the ball over the goal line for 73 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:21,600 Speaker 1: a touchdown. The Ravens snap it quickly, Lamar Jackson to 74 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,719 Speaker 1: throw his pass caught for the first down. Wallace gets 75 00:04:24,760 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 1: away running down the sideline. He's still running thirty twenty ten, 76 00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 1: coasting into the end zone for an incredible eighty four 77 00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:38,040 Speaker 1: yard Baltimore touchdown. 78 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 3: Damn Taylor Britt doesn't make the tackle. I mean he's 79 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,400 Speaker 3: in good position. Yeah, and Logan Wilson tries to push 80 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:46,359 Speaker 3: amount of bounds, but he had he was out in 81 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 3: front of him too far and he couldn't get a 82 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,359 Speaker 3: good enough piece of them. 83 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 1: Lamar catches the shotgun snap short drop, looking floating it 84 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: for the end zone, Andrews with a catch touchdown. The 85 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:00,320 Speaker 1: Ravens Burrow back to throw guns it deep down your. 86 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 2: Chase is open, catches at the thirty for the field 87 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:09,279 Speaker 2: ten five touchdown, seventy yards as Jamar Chase is putting 88 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 2: on one of the great shows in Bengals history. And 89 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:17,560 Speaker 2: on another one play drive, the Bengals have a chance to. 90 00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:20,599 Speaker 1: Tie it with a bad or go for it to 91 00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,120 Speaker 1: try to take the lead. I see Evan McPherson on 92 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: the field third down and goal from the five. He'll 93 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,799 Speaker 1: checks in at running back. Lamar catches the shotgun snap 94 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,599 Speaker 1: looking back pedaling, rolling to the left, throws into the 95 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: end zone, and he floats it into the hands of 96 00:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,599 Speaker 1: her shot bateman for the touchdown. One minute and forty 97 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:43,320 Speaker 1: nine seconds to go from the five yard line. Burrow 98 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,920 Speaker 1: catches the shotgun snap, he throws it into the end zone. 99 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 2: Chase Boom makes the catch on the back line for 100 00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: the touchdown. 101 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: And it looks like the Bengals will go for two 102 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: with thirty eight seconds to go to try to win 103 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:56,080 Speaker 1: the game. 104 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 3: Baltimore felt like they had him double coverage and he 105 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 3: goes to the back of the end zone that Joe 106 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 3: Burrow throws the ball where only he can make a 107 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,240 Speaker 3: play on the ball. 108 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 1: The game comes down to this play, a two point 109 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: conversion try with thirty eight seconds left in the fourth quarter. 110 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:15,280 Speaker 1: Cincinnati down thirty five to thirty four. Burrow in the shotgun. 111 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,200 Speaker 1: Two receivers to each side of the formation, sample in 112 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:21,480 Speaker 1: the backfield to block. Burrow is ready, extends the hands, 113 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:26,359 Speaker 1: catches the shotgun snap looking through incomplete for Tanner Hudson 114 00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:29,479 Speaker 1: at the goal line. There is no penalty flag down 115 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,640 Speaker 1: and Cincinnati is going to lose by a point in Baltimore. 116 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,799 Speaker 1: The final score thirty five thirty four. In two games 117 00:06:38,800 --> 00:06:41,719 Speaker 1: against Baltimore this year, the Bengals scored thirty eight and 118 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:46,119 Speaker 1: thirty four points without a win. In Game one, Joe 119 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 1: Burrow threw for three hundred and ninety two yards and 120 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 1: Jamar Chase finished with one ninety three receiving. Incredibly, they 121 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,360 Speaker 1: topped those numbers on Thursday, as Burrow threw for four 122 00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: to twenty eight and four touchdowns despite thirteen quarterback hits, 123 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:08,200 Speaker 1: and Chase came up two yards shy of his franchise 124 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: record for receiving yards in a game with two sixty four, 125 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: including three touchdowns. Add it up and you get eight 126 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,560 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty passing yards for Burrow and four hundred 127 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,200 Speaker 1: and fifty seven receiving yards for Chase and two more 128 00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: wins for Lamar. Jackson, who is now ten to one 129 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: is a starter against the Bengals. Here are Jamar and Joe. 130 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 4: Every time we play Baltimore is a high fight. It's 131 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 4: always a dog fight with Baltimore, and the game's always 132 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:39,720 Speaker 4: close to end. 133 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:41,360 Speaker 5: So we just got to learn how to put it away, man. 134 00:07:41,480 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, we just got to make the opportunities that are there, 135 00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:48,200 Speaker 6: make the plays. You know, we did in spots and 136 00:07:48,240 --> 00:07:51,440 Speaker 6: we didn't in spots tonight, and that's the story of 137 00:07:51,440 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 6: our season. So I'm going to do everything in my 138 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:58,560 Speaker 6: power to continue to be ready for the opportunities that 139 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:01,160 Speaker 6: come try to take advantage of them. 140 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:04,400 Speaker 4: I'm pissed off, of course, but you know that's game 141 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,160 Speaker 4: of football. You know what I'm saying, sometimes we don't 142 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 4: get what we want, but we've got to come out 143 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 4: next drive and execute it. Hopefully we do better than 144 00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 4: we did last time. 145 00:08:12,400 --> 00:08:14,280 Speaker 6: Everyone's going to talk about the two point play, but 146 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 6: we had plenty of other opportunities to on both sides 147 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 6: of the ball to put ourselves in better position. 148 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 4: I don't know, we didn't have some tough losses this year, 149 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 4: all close games. I don't know. I think we just 150 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 4: got to find a way to finish. 151 00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 5: We've been doing this. 152 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,760 Speaker 4: Every loss we had, we didn't finish, So we just 153 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 4: got to find some type of way to finish. 154 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 6: You know, your record is what your record is, and 155 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 6: you are what your record is. So we're four and 156 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 6: six football team right now, and it's gonna be an 157 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 6: uphill battle to get back into this thing. But you know, 158 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:47,720 Speaker 6: I like what we have in the locker room. I 159 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,480 Speaker 6: like the coaches that we have up there, and so 160 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 6: let's keep plugging along. 161 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,840 Speaker 1: When you toss in the Washington game in September, the 162 00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 1: Bengals now have three losses this year where they have 163 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:01,840 Speaker 1: scored thirty three or more or points. I spoke to 164 00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:07,280 Speaker 1: Ted Karrits about another squandered opportunity ted unfortunately. I think 165 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:10,320 Speaker 1: he used the phrase earlier this season, the all most 166 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,680 Speaker 1: games or something like that, another one of those games 167 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: where he basically did everything but pull it out. 168 00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 7: Yeah, Ravens. Give credit to them. They made one more 169 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:22,080 Speaker 7: play than we did. And that's what it comes down to. 170 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:25,200 Speaker 7: The National Football League. I thought we left some stuff 171 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:30,800 Speaker 7: out there, but overall, I mean, well it it sucks 172 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:33,680 Speaker 7: because we're kind of we're at there at the losing 173 00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 7: end of some all time classics this year, and that's. 174 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:38,559 Speaker 5: That's a shame. 175 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,400 Speaker 7: So we're gonna take a take a long weekend and 176 00:09:41,440 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 7: get ready to go to LA still in the mix, 177 00:09:45,600 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 7: obviously losing to our big rivals by you know, last. 178 00:09:49,160 --> 00:09:51,760 Speaker 5: Plays in the game two times in a row. 179 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 7: His his heartbreaking. But we hat out of ball, left 180 00:09:56,920 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 7: with seven games left to seven left to try and 181 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 7: do something, So we got to go out and beat 182 00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 7: l A. 183 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:08,000 Speaker 1: How significant was the fumble in terms of momentum, Well, I. 184 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:12,680 Speaker 7: Think that if you boil down the game too, you 185 00:10:12,720 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 7: know what, what is the difference in the game. I 186 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 7: believe we had one turnover and they had zero. I 187 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:19,920 Speaker 7: think we have you can count the fourth downs as well, 188 00:10:20,960 --> 00:10:21,880 Speaker 7: or just one fourth. 189 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 5: Down that we miss. 190 00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 7: But I mean that's again, in a in a league 191 00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,520 Speaker 7: with such a such a thin margin for victory, you 192 00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 7: know that that'll cost you, and especially with you know 193 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 7: how our defense was playing to give them a short 194 00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:42,400 Speaker 7: field and let them feel some confidence when really they 195 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 7: weren't doing anything all day. So you know, you put 196 00:10:47,559 --> 00:10:49,120 Speaker 7: that in, you know, one of the big moments of 197 00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 7: the game. 198 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 5: You know, it is what it is that it happens. 199 00:10:51,800 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 7: But uh again, those are kind of the things that 200 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,359 Speaker 7: that cost us in a thirty five thirty four heartbreaker. 201 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:00,959 Speaker 1: It's almost hard to build. You have to score thirty 202 00:11:01,000 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 1: eight in game one and thirty four tonight and not 203 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,640 Speaker 1: come away with a w either time. Joe passed for 204 00:11:06,679 --> 00:11:10,160 Speaker 1: four hundred plus Jamar just missed the franchise record for 205 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: receiving yard. You did so many good things. I can 206 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 1: only imagine how exasperating it must be to not walk 207 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: out of here with a victory. 208 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 7: No, Dan, I never feel exasperated. 209 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 5: Football is. 210 00:11:25,880 --> 00:11:35,520 Speaker 7: Such a unique thin line of performance, and one of 211 00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 7: the great things about it knock on wood until they 212 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,960 Speaker 7: kick you out. You know, you get up again, and 213 00:11:44,000 --> 00:11:46,040 Speaker 7: we got it. We got an opponent next week. 214 00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: So. 215 00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:52,600 Speaker 7: Yeah, it sucks, and you know, I feel for the guys, 216 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,319 Speaker 7: and you know, I think the guys are ready. I 217 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 7: think the guys know what we can be and we're 218 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 7: sitting at for me and you know that's that's not 219 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,600 Speaker 7: good enough. But it's been it's been some heartbreaking losses. 220 00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:12,120 Speaker 7: So I don't think anyone's going to let that affect him. 221 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 7: You know, it's a clean slate come Monday, So we'll 222 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:18,840 Speaker 7: watch everyone else on the hot seat this weekend and 223 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:21,319 Speaker 7: get ready to go and play a play an LA 224 00:12:21,400 --> 00:12:23,640 Speaker 7: team that's kind of vying for the same spot we are, 225 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 7: so big game. 226 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 1: Appreciate your time. Thanks Thanks Dan As for the defense, 227 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:34,280 Speaker 1: Baltimore's first seven drives featured five punts and only one touchdown. 228 00:12:35,040 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 1: Four of those drives were three and out, but after 229 00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 1: Chase Brown's fumble gave the Ravens a short field and 230 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 1: led to a thirty one yard touchdown drive, the Bengals 231 00:12:44,240 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 1: defense simply could not stop Lamar Jackson. He finished with 232 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 1: two hundred and ninety passing yards, four touchdowns, and no 233 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:55,679 Speaker 1: picks for a passer rating of one forty one point four. 234 00:12:56,240 --> 00:12:59,880 Speaker 1: For the season, He's got twenty four touchdown passes two 235 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 1: interceptions and an NFL Best Passer rating of one twenty 236 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:09,680 Speaker 1: three point two. I discussed the defense with safety Jordan Battle, 237 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 1: who finished the game with seven tackles. Jordan, can you 238 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,880 Speaker 1: describe the emotions you guys are feeling right now after 239 00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 1: a game like that? 240 00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:23,719 Speaker 8: Yeah, tough. When we play tough teams, you know it's 241 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 8: gonna be a sixty minute battle four quarters, especially in 242 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,560 Speaker 8: the AFC northwal against the Ravens. You know, we gotta, 243 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 8: you know, we gotta come out of the second half swinging, 244 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:35,560 Speaker 8: which we did. We did early on the third quarter. 245 00:13:35,559 --> 00:13:37,240 Speaker 8: We got up on them, got to stop on defense 246 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 8: and then went right down and scored a touch. Now, 247 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:42,200 Speaker 8: but we's got to work on work on finishing, closing, 248 00:13:42,240 --> 00:13:45,480 Speaker 8: closing opponents out and flight. Today we didn't do that. 249 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 8: I mean obviously, you know we uh, you know, too 250 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 8: many exposers in the second half and then turnover. 251 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 5: So you know, we gotta we gotta keep the ball. 252 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 8: We gotta take the ball away as a defense and 253 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 8: uh just just be just be playmakers and game changers. 254 00:13:58,920 --> 00:13:59,720 Speaker 8: As a team. 255 00:14:00,520 --> 00:14:03,560 Speaker 1: You held him under one hundred rushing yards. It ended 256 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,280 Speaker 1: their streak of forty two consecutive games with one hundred 257 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:10,200 Speaker 1: or more, so you made them somewhat one dimensional. But 258 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: when that one dimension is Lamar, I mean he's such 259 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 1: an equalizer. 260 00:14:14,200 --> 00:14:14,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 261 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 8: Yeah, he's a very explosive player. 262 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:16,600 Speaker 5: You know. 263 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:19,480 Speaker 8: Obviously when we got him in the backfield, we gotta 264 00:14:19,520 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 8: gotta get him on the ground. And we know as 265 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 8: a GBS at as these as dbs, when he gets 266 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,600 Speaker 8: out of the pocket, we got a plaster. We gotta 267 00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:28,720 Speaker 8: get on our guys and uh, stay stay connected and 268 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 8: stay locked in on him. And when they catch the 269 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:33,640 Speaker 8: ball and may tackles, you know, get him on the ground. 270 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 8: You know, stay to down, stay to stay the drive. 271 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 8: And I feel like it's like, uh, when we all play, 272 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 8: we play against the quarterbacks like like like Lamar or 273 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 8: you know any any guy who are doing versatile you know, 274 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 8: and uh, and you can do both things, can run 275 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:51,280 Speaker 8: and pass.

The Bengals only managed one quarterback 316 00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:41,240 Speaker 1: hit on Lamar Jackson and did not have a quarterback sack. Now, 317 00:16:41,560 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 1: let's hear from Zach Taylor, who spent a few minutes 318 00:16:43,880 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 1: with Lap after the game. 319 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 3: Coach, I mean heartbreaking, to say the least. And when 320 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:52,280 Speaker 3: you get a good look at that two point conversion, 321 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 3: they're holding the hell out of GASICKI. Joe gets hit 322 00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 3: in the face. I mean, they could have made calls 323 00:16:58,400 --> 00:16:59,960 Speaker 3: to give you another shot at it. But I mean, 324 00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 3: and that's water over the bridge or on the bridge 325 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,720 Speaker 3: or whatever the hell it is right now. But I 326 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:11,440 Speaker 3: mean that was just another instant classic football game. 327 00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:13,840 Speaker 9: Yeah, you just you know you're gonna win the game, 328 00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:16,800 Speaker 9: and you go down there just expecting, even down seven, 329 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:18,399 Speaker 9: that we're gonna score and get the two point version 330 00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:21,520 Speaker 9: and go away winners. Sick to your stomach when it 331 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:23,000 Speaker 9: doesn't work out that way. We've had a lot of 332 00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:26,639 Speaker 9: these this year and got time to turn around. It's 333 00:17:26,920 --> 00:17:28,719 Speaker 9: a good football team that's in that locker room. They 334 00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,480 Speaker 9: believe in each other, They fight to the last second. 335 00:17:32,880 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 9: We got time to turn this thing around. 336 00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 3: The two quarterbacks were ridiculous again tonight. I mean the 337 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,120 Speaker 3: numbers that they put up, it's just it's incredible. I mean, 338 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:46,040 Speaker 3: Joe Burrow, I don't think there's a competitor that's more 339 00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 3: intense than any sport than Joe Burrow is. 340 00:17:48,920 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 9: There's no doubt, you know. It's or thankful he's our quarterback. 341 00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,440 Speaker 9: He gives this chance to win every game we play. 342 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 9: Made some tremendous play tonight, and guys around him stepped 343 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,600 Speaker 9: up as well and just came up with. 344 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:03,000 Speaker 3: A short Jamar Chase. I mean, he's had big game, 345 00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,400 Speaker 3: big games against the Ravens. This one was as big 346 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 3: as any of them, and he was unbelievable tonight. 347 00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:11,159 Speaker 9: Yeah, he's an unbelievable player. We got to find every 348 00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:12,960 Speaker 9: which way we can to get him the ball because 349 00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:15,920 Speaker 9: every time he gets it, something electron lying happens, and 350 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 9: this this game was no different tonight. 351 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:20,879 Speaker 3: We talked about it in the pregame show. You know, 352 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 3: turnovers this football game. It's like, man, you can't give 353 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 3: away a possession, give them another possession. And that's what happened. 354 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:32,240 Speaker 3: I mean, Chase Brown had the unfortunate funnel that was big, 355 00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:32,719 Speaker 3: wouldn't it. 356 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,920 Speaker 9: This game always comes down with the turner battle. You know, 357 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 9: it's always a one score game, and whoever won the 358 00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,960 Speaker 9: turner battle wins the game. And fortunately that's the way 359 00:18:38,960 --> 00:18:39,440 Speaker 9: it turned out. 360 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:43,440 Speaker 3: So, I mean what it was, it was a Charles 361 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 3: Dickens special. I mean the Bengals in the first half 362 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 3: just every phase, I mean dominated and then in the 363 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 3: second half, you know, the script flipped there a little bit. 364 00:18:52,920 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 3: Was it adjustments they made? Was it just mistakes that 365 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 3: you guys made or was it a combination? What do 366 00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 3: you think? 367 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 9: I mean, we gave him the short that the eighty 368 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 9: something yard run. You know, we just got to get 369 00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:06,119 Speaker 9: him on the ground, get Hi out of bounds, get 370 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,240 Speaker 9: him on the ground. So those two plays gave him 371 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:11,200 Speaker 9: life and and unfortunately, you give a good team of 372 00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,720 Speaker 9: life and they're gonna fight you. And then it just 373 00:19:12,760 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 9: went back and forth from there, just weren't able to pull. 374 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,200 Speaker 3: Out two to one score drives by Jamar Chase and 375 00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:22,880 Speaker 3: the same game, two of them. It's like you said, 376 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:24,800 Speaker 3: they had they had the big play. So I mean 377 00:19:24,840 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 3: explosives there are always a big deal in this matchup 378 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:28,360 Speaker 3: as well, aren't they they are? 379 00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 9: And and again that's great protection gave Joe a lot 380 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 9: of time on both those plays, and then those two 381 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 9: guys were just in great sync. 382 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:40,560 Speaker 3: So, like you said, it's it's it's obviously painful, but 383 00:19:40,600 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 3: it's not fatal. I mean this football team, the number 384 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 3: of yards that have been put up in these two 385 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:51,439 Speaker 3: matchups and the number of points and the differential to 386 00:19:51,480 --> 00:19:54,679 Speaker 3: only be four points total, I mean, it just speaks 387 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 3: to how close these two football teams are. I know, 388 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,400 Speaker 3: you didn't win either football game, but could be two 389 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:02,480 Speaker 3: and all against these guys. 390 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,280 Speaker 9: Yeah, we're not, though, So we got to figure out 391 00:20:04,320 --> 00:20:06,280 Speaker 9: a way to make up for these wins, you know, 392 00:20:06,320 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 9: and get back in the thick things, which which I 393 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:13,159 Speaker 9: fully believe you are. There's unwavering confidence amongst these coaches 394 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 9: and players that we're going to be there in the end. 395 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 9: Might look a little sticky, but what We're going to 396 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:19,679 Speaker 9: get there, and we got plenty of time to do it. 397 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 3: A lot of division games, I mean this was one 398 00:20:22,119 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 3: of the four in the last eight games, three in 399 00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 3: the last six, two in the last three. I mean 400 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,320 Speaker 3: a lot of your division games are toward the toward 401 00:20:28,400 --> 00:20:30,439 Speaker 3: the back half of the season, and those are all 402 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:31,439 Speaker 3: going to be important, aren't they. 403 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:33,760 Speaker 9: Yeah, they're They're always important. We got to even a 404 00:20:33,880 --> 00:20:36,480 Speaker 9: back up next opportunity get but next on the docket 405 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:38,000 Speaker 9: is the Chargers and we got to find a way 406 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:38,480 Speaker 9: to get that win. 407 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 3: Well. I mean, it was a heck of a performance 408 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:45,359 Speaker 3: once again, the in front of the whole nation. Nothing 409 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 3: to be ashamed about with what took place out there 410 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,160 Speaker 3: tonight and your football team battle to the very end. 411 00:20:51,200 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 3: I mean, I appreciate your time as always. Thanks. 412 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 1: Up next a Sunday night game in Los Angeles against 413 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: the Chargers, meaning the Bengals will face a Harbaugh for 414 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 1: the second game in a row. Jim Harbaugh has the 415 00:21:06,600 --> 00:21:09,600 Speaker 1: Charger sitting at five and three and giving up the 416 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: fewest points of any team in the league at a 417 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: meager twelve point six. They haven't allowed more than sixteen 418 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: in a game this year, and they aren't likely to 419 00:21:18,840 --> 00:21:22,920 Speaker 1: surrender a bunch this week as they host Tennessee on Sunday. 420 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,439 Speaker 1: The Bengals Booth Podcast is brought to you by pay Corps, 421 00:21:26,480 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: Proud to be the Bengals Official HR software provider, by 422 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:34,280 Speaker 1: Alta Fiber future Proof Fiber Internet designed to elevate your home, 423 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: business and community to a new level, and by Kettering 424 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:41,359 Speaker 1: Health the best care for the best fans. Kettering Health 425 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: is the official healthcare provider of the Bengals. Now time 426 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 1: for the radio guys. Recap lapped seventy two points in 427 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,240 Speaker 1: two games against the Baltimore Ravens without a win. That 428 00:21:55,440 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: is mind boggling, it really is. 429 00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,159 Speaker 3: I mean, you know they've got a they've got an 430 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 3: explosive offensive football team as well. I mean, both of 431 00:22:04,560 --> 00:22:07,440 Speaker 3: these football games have been instant classics, and the quarterback 432 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 3: play is just ridiculously good. But the one thing that 433 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 3: is unfortunate, lose the turnover battle in this football game, 434 00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:21,679 Speaker 3: usually lose the football game. And that fumble is huge. 435 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:25,880 Speaker 3: Short field fumble get stopped on fourth down a couple 436 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:29,360 Speaker 3: of times, so you know it wasn't just minus one. 437 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 3: I think it was minus more than that. And uh, 438 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 3: ultimately I think that was the deciding factor in the 439 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:40,200 Speaker 3: football game. And on the fourth down play, I meant, 440 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:45,160 Speaker 3: Sticky get get held, and uh, excuse me, the two 441 00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:48,280 Speaker 3: point conversion gasick you get held. And I said to 442 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:49,919 Speaker 3: him in the locker room afterwards, I said, what did 443 00:22:49,920 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 3: he say to you? He said that the ball had 444 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 3: already been thrown, you got hold of hold you got 445 00:22:56,200 --> 00:22:58,520 Speaker 3: you got to make the call, and Joe get hit 446 00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:01,160 Speaker 3: in the face. So you know, no call on any 447 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:04,800 Speaker 3: of it. And asked you about it in this post game, 448 00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,240 Speaker 3: and you said, you're not going to get those kind 449 00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 3: of calls. Well, I guess, particularly if you're the visiting team, 450 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,159 Speaker 3: you're not going to get those kind of calls. But 451 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 3: you just can't. Bottom line is, you can't rely on 452 00:23:15,800 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 3: Zebras to win you a football game or give you 453 00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,480 Speaker 3: an opportunity to win a football game. But it's it's 454 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:25,119 Speaker 3: unfortunate and things like that occur. It's hard enough playing 455 00:23:25,640 --> 00:23:30,440 Speaker 3: a team like the Ravens anyway, you don't you don't 456 00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:32,840 Speaker 3: feel like you need additional burdens to overcome. 457 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,720 Speaker 1: I didn't like going for two. I loved going for 458 00:23:37,760 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: two in the final minute. Agree they weren't stopping Lamar 459 00:23:40,680 --> 00:23:43,159 Speaker 1: at that point, give Joe Burrow a chance to win 460 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:44,520 Speaker 1: you the game from two yards away. 461 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 3: Agreed, you know, and they you know, they tried to 462 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 3: get edge of a little closer. You know. I thought 463 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,200 Speaker 3: it was it was very theatrical what they were doing, 464 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 3: trying to draw them off sides. But I agree with 465 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 3: you try to win the football game. You know, at 466 00:24:00,960 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 3: that point, you know, Joe felt like he maybe, in hindsight, 467 00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:11,640 Speaker 3: maybe extend and create and go to the next read 468 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:17,640 Speaker 3: in the progression. You know, Ravens had a good coverage 469 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 3: for that particular play, but he and Jamar Chase in 470 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 3: this football game, we're just in another world. I mean, 471 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 3: the report that they have the sixth cent, the sense 472 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:32,680 Speaker 3: that they have is just rare. It's extraordinary. 473 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: I thought that the Ravens were the best team in 474 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,040 Speaker 1: the AFC going into this game. I don't think I 475 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:42,560 Speaker 1: feel that way anymore because of their secondary. And Jamaar 476 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,280 Speaker 1: had eleven catches for two hundred and sixty four yards. 477 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:48,360 Speaker 1: He had more than one ninety in game one. The 478 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: offense is incredible, but I think the secondary could very 479 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: well prevent Baltimore from having a long postseason run. 480 00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:58,960 Speaker 3: They're dead last in the NFL against the pass, and 481 00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:00,960 Speaker 3: what Joe Borrow did to tonight is not going to 482 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,040 Speaker 3: help that. Cause, you know, they were number one in 483 00:25:04,040 --> 00:25:06,600 Speaker 3: the NFL against a run coming in. But man, they 484 00:25:06,680 --> 00:25:11,240 Speaker 3: get ripped up and to be the best team and 485 00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:13,920 Speaker 3: to advance in the playoffs, you have to play defense, 486 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:18,880 Speaker 3: and right now that is problematic to say the least. 487 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:23,080 Speaker 3: I mean, at some point, you can't continue to outscore 488 00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,760 Speaker 3: people time after time after time. At some point is 489 00:25:25,760 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 3: going to come back and bite you. 490 00:25:28,200 --> 00:25:30,840 Speaker 1: We've been doing the games together for fourteen years. This 491 00:25:30,920 --> 00:25:33,639 Speaker 1: is the first season where I've really felt like the 492 00:25:33,720 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: Bengals record is not indicative of the team. Fourth and 493 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: sixteen against Kansas City two games that they could ever 494 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 1: should have won against Baltimore. This is a much better 495 00:25:44,560 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 1: team than four and six. Unfortunately, their chances of making 496 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,760 Speaker 1: the playoffs are slimmed. 497 00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:53,920 Speaker 3: I mean, they've lost three games to those two football 498 00:25:53,960 --> 00:25:58,600 Speaker 3: teams by five points. What three games by five points? 499 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:05,240 Speaker 3: That's that's crazy. And the odds would say, if you're 500 00:26:05,280 --> 00:26:07,680 Speaker 3: that close, you're gonna win at least one of them, 501 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,080 Speaker 3: and they have not. The football gods have not been 502 00:26:11,119 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 3: kind to them. You know, they've got three stars Joe Burrow, 503 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:20,399 Speaker 3: Jamar Chase Trey Hendrickson, three of the best players at 504 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 3: their respective positions there is in the National Football League. 505 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,080 Speaker 3: Other guys have to step up and start doing a 506 00:26:26,080 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 3: little bit more to support those guys. I mean, they 507 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:30,800 Speaker 3: need to get some help, and they need it quickly. 508 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 1: The defense couldn't have been much better for two and 509 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,880 Speaker 1: a half quarters and then could not stop the Ravens 510 00:26:37,880 --> 00:26:40,240 Speaker 1: to save their life in the final four possessions. 511 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, and it was a matter of you know, angles 512 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 3: tackling football geometry was suspect. I mean, I mean there 513 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 3: were there were big plays that turned into big plays 514 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:56,320 Speaker 3: because of sloppy and shoddy played by the defense. So 515 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,480 Speaker 3: but that is life in the National Football League. And 516 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,919 Speaker 3: you know, in this in this game, like I said earlier, 517 00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 3: the turnover battle usually does decide it. When Chase Brown 518 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:09,600 Speaker 3: had that fumble, you're up, you're up two scores, you're 519 00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:13,000 Speaker 3: up fourteen. He has that fumble short field and they 520 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:17,280 Speaker 3: score quickly. I mean, the momentum shift was palatable. I 521 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:19,760 Speaker 3: mean you could taste it, you could feel it, you 522 00:27:19,800 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 3: could smell it, you could see it. It was everywhere. 523 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 3: All your sensors were telling you that wasn't good. That 524 00:27:25,680 --> 00:27:29,480 Speaker 3: wasn't good, and you know that it turned out to 525 00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 3: be the case. 526 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,399 Speaker 1: We've been saying it's probably gonna take ten wins to 527 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:35,919 Speaker 1: make it into the playoffs. That might not be the case. 528 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:40,440 Speaker 1: Nine was enough for Green Bay last year. Maybe nine 529 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,920 Speaker 1: will do it in the AFC if teams knock each 530 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 1: other off. I still think they're capable of winning the 531 00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 1: majority of the games they have left. They've got seven 532 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: games to go, minimum of five. You'd feel better if it. 533 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,280 Speaker 3: Was six, no doubt. If it does come down to 534 00:27:56,400 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 3: point differential, though, they got to you sitting early high Cotton, 535 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,400 Speaker 3: I don't know if I don't know if there's any 536 00:28:02,400 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: team in the NFL that's played as many close games 537 00:28:04,800 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 3: as this football team has played and lost them. I 538 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 3: mean again, it's like, you know, the odds saying you're 539 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:14,320 Speaker 3: gonna pick up one or two of them. It's it's 540 00:28:14,359 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 3: just one of those years. I think. Good. It's safe 541 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,679 Speaker 3: to say that Joe Borrow, Jamar Chase, Trey Henderson have 542 00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 3: never played football to the level that they're playing it 543 00:28:24,640 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 3: and yet have so little to show for it. 544 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 1: That puts a rap on the Baltimore game. Now it's 545 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,920 Speaker 1: time for this week's fun Fact segment, where you get 546 00:28:33,960 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: to know the person under the pads. Time for some 547 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 1: fun facts with safety Gino Stone from Newcastle, PA, about 548 00:28:42,480 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 1: forty three miles from Pittsburgh. This is a safe space, 549 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,840 Speaker 1: we won't judge you. Where you raised a fan of 550 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:53,240 Speaker 1: the dreaded, hated, but grudgingly respected Pittsburgh Steelers. 551 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:54,880 Speaker 5: No, I actually wasn't. 552 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 10: I was actually a big fan of Michael Vick and 553 00:28:57,200 --> 00:28:59,920 Speaker 10: Ladani and Thompson growing up, so that's kind of who 554 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 10: I followed. And rude, I never really had a favorite 555 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 10: football team in like NFL, so that's kind of different with. 556 00:29:06,600 --> 00:29:08,920 Speaker 1: Me, so more of a fan of players than teams. 557 00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:10,480 Speaker 5: Always. Yeah, that's how it always happened. 558 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,600 Speaker 1: So high school football playoff games in the state of 559 00:29:13,640 --> 00:29:17,080 Speaker 1: Pennsylvania are played in the Steelers Stadium. Did you get 560 00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:18,800 Speaker 1: to do that as a kid, and if so, is 561 00:29:18,840 --> 00:29:19,400 Speaker 1: it a big deal? 562 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:22,680 Speaker 5: Yeah? It was actually my last ever high school football game. 563 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 10: There was a district championship we played there and actually 564 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,960 Speaker 10: got to be pretty bad. But I enjoyed the experience 565 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:32,000 Speaker 10: a lot, because you know, I always want to steal 566 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 10: their games and pit football games and watching guys and 567 00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:38,320 Speaker 10: watching it's actually crazy ice to watch Tyler Boyd and 568 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:40,800 Speaker 10: when he played it like every year in the championships there, 569 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:44,160 Speaker 10: So being able to play and play on that stage 570 00:29:44,200 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 10: in front of them, in front of everybody, was you know, 571 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:47,200 Speaker 10: a dream come true. 572 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,760 Speaker 1: For me visiting with Gino Stone. One more Pittsburgh question 573 00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:53,480 Speaker 1: and I'll move on. The first interception of your NFL 574 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:55,600 Speaker 1: career was off Ben Roethlisberger. 575 00:29:55,880 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 5: He was the. 576 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:00,320 Speaker 1: Steelers quarterback for your entire childhood from age five age 577 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,400 Speaker 1: twenty two. Was it surreal to get your first NFL 578 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: pick up Big Ben? 579 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:08,520 Speaker 10: Yeah, it definitely was, just because you know, another thing 580 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 10: is so he married someone from my hometown, so he 581 00:30:12,600 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 10: would always be around people from my hometown and like 582 00:30:14,840 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 10: my one my my actually head football coach, so be 583 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,680 Speaker 10: able to talk about stories like that with them guys, 584 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 10: and it's actually pretty crazy, so you know, and it's 585 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,440 Speaker 10: his last ever, his last ever pick ever through so 586 00:30:28,240 --> 00:30:29,479 Speaker 10: it's kind of kind of crazy. 587 00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:30,360 Speaker 5: That was my first one. 588 00:30:30,200 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: Ever, your first his last. You were a quarterback in 589 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:36,640 Speaker 1: high school in addition to being a defensive back. What 590 00:30:36,800 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 1: kind of offense did you run? 591 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 5: It was a mixture. 592 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 10: We ran like a spread and then we would run 593 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:44,560 Speaker 10: like a bunch of heavy part personnels. 594 00:30:44,920 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 5: I really didn't. It's crazy, I really didn't run as 595 00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:47,440 Speaker 5: much in the high school. 596 00:30:47,440 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 10: As a quarterback, I actually threw or hand the ball 597 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 10: off because we had a really good receivers. 598 00:30:50,800 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 5: But for the most part, out is back there. 599 00:30:53,480 --> 00:30:53,680 Speaker 1: You know. 600 00:30:53,720 --> 00:30:55,800 Speaker 10: It's kind of like my my off break on defense 601 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 10: because I literally didn't come out the game. It Also 602 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 10: that's kind of how I took it on office side. 603 00:31:01,320 --> 00:31:03,040 Speaker 1: You know, when did you know your long term future 604 00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,320 Speaker 1: would be as a defensive back. 605 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,080 Speaker 10: I would say my junior year. That's kind of when 606 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 10: I made the switch to safety. At my first couple 607 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 10: of years, I was always playing corner and then my 608 00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 10: dB coach suggested me to move to safety. And then 609 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:21,479 Speaker 10: my first year, my junior year playing safety, I had 610 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,400 Speaker 10: six picks. So that's when I was kind of like, 611 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 10: all right, maybe I could do something with this. And 612 00:31:24,880 --> 00:31:26,920 Speaker 10: then that's why start getting offers from schools and stuff. 613 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 10: So that's when I kind of was like, all right, 614 00:31:28,480 --> 00:31:30,240 Speaker 10: maybe football is gonna be what I want to do 615 00:31:30,360 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 10: after high school. 616 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:35,320 Speaker 1: I found an old newspaper headline that said Stone can't 617 00:31:35,360 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: wait to get started at Kent State. You never played 618 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 1: there you wound up in Iowa instead. How did that 619 00:31:41,080 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: go down? 620 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 10: Yeah, so I was actually committed to Kent for at 621 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:48,040 Speaker 10: least a month or two and then it was like 622 00:31:48,080 --> 00:31:51,240 Speaker 10: the last weekend of recruiting and I was and at 623 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 10: that point, I was kind of over all the like 624 00:31:53,760 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 10: the Big ten schools and the like ACC schools, you know, 625 00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 10: playing me kind of sealmen able to offer me and 626 00:31:58,560 --> 00:32:00,440 Speaker 10: they never have. So I was saying I was just 627 00:32:00,480 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 10: gonna stick with Ken, and then I well came in 628 00:32:03,720 --> 00:32:07,479 Speaker 10: late and they were like really interested. Coach Parker came 629 00:32:07,520 --> 00:32:10,880 Speaker 10: out to see me, and my mom kind of forced 630 00:32:10,920 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 10: me to go on a visit because I really didn't 631 00:32:12,760 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 10: want to because if you at that point, if you 632 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:16,720 Speaker 10: had told me where Iowa was and point on the map, 633 00:32:16,760 --> 00:32:20,160 Speaker 10: I couldn't find it. But but uh yeah, my mom 634 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 10: kind of forced me to go out there. And you know, 635 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 10: I'm always forever grateful for because I was probably the 636 00:32:24,640 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 10: greatest decision I made in my life. 637 00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 1: Certainly worked out well. You were with the Hotkeys for 638 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 1: three straight winning seasons, including a ten and three record 639 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 1: your final year.

Describe your draft weekend hectic. 653 00:33:04,360 --> 00:33:06,239 Speaker 10: You know, I was actually, I mean disappointed a lot. 654 00:33:06,280 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 10: I mean it was it was a great disappointment at 655 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 10: the end, but you know I kind of thought I 656 00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 10: was gonna go a little higher. But you know, once 657 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,280 Speaker 10: it hit like the fifth or sixth round, I actually 658 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:15,960 Speaker 10: didn't even watch the draft no more. I kind of 659 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,680 Speaker 10: just took a drive, you know, try to clear my mind. 660 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,800 Speaker 10: And then I remember Baltimore actually hit me up before. 661 00:33:21,880 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 10: There was like a few picks before in the sixth round. 662 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 10: They were like, we got one more pick left. We 663 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 10: we we're either going with you or someone else. And 664 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,000 Speaker 10: then like literally it was like a couple picks your 665 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:31,800 Speaker 10: head and I called, I'm like trying to call him back, like. 666 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 5: So what are you guys doing? 667 00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 10: Like, because you know later at that point, at that point, 668 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:36,760 Speaker 10: you know, you're trying to figure out where you're trying 669 00:33:36,760 --> 00:33:40,280 Speaker 10: to go and UDFA and stuff like that. So I 670 00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:42,240 Speaker 10: was grateful putting off that Eric to cross the call 671 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 10: me and I got drafted. So that was, you know, 672 00:33:43,920 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 10: dream come true. 673 00:33:45,320 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: Gino. In high school, you had seventeen interceptions. You set 674 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: your high school's record. At Iowa, you had six. In 675 00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: three years. With Baltimore, you had eight, including an AFC 676 00:33:54,800 --> 00:33:57,960 Speaker 1: leading seven. Last year, you've got one so far in Cincinnati. 677 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,760 Speaker 1: That's thirty two interceptions. In all seriousness, what is it 678 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: about you that allows you to pick off so many throws? 679 00:34:06,560 --> 00:34:08,840 Speaker 10: I always revert back to me saying because I was 680 00:34:08,840 --> 00:34:10,759 Speaker 10: a big baseball player growing up, so I always play 681 00:34:10,760 --> 00:34:12,920 Speaker 10: center field. So I always say, you meet my tracking 682 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:14,440 Speaker 10: ability to be able to track the ball out the 683 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 10: quarterbacks hand. I take it like as tracking the ball 684 00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:19,200 Speaker 10: off the baseball player's back. That's kind of how I 685 00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:22,239 Speaker 10: always look at it. So that's kind of how I 686 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 10: always get to jump on the ball or jump on something. 687 00:34:24,719 --> 00:34:26,920 Speaker 10: The quarterbacks going somewhere I always feel like I have 688 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,000 Speaker 10: that extra step on them and I just let my 689 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 10: ability take over after that. 690 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:33,360 Speaker 1: All Right, I'll recognize a gold gloffer in the outfield 691 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,520 Speaker 1: the next time you pick one off. Time for some 692 00:34:35,560 --> 00:34:38,879 Speaker 1: wild card questions. Now for Bengal safety Gino Stelle. Who 693 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 1: is your all time favorite athlete in any sport? And why? 694 00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 3: Oh? 695 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:47,920 Speaker 10: Lebron James, Lebron James. I've been Lebron. I mean I've 696 00:34:47,920 --> 00:34:51,360 Speaker 10: been Lebron jameson since forever. I would say him just 697 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:53,279 Speaker 10: because for him to be able to come to to 698 00:34:53,360 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 10: a league at eighteen years old and do and do 699 00:34:56,120 --> 00:34:59,080 Speaker 10: and has done what he's done for such a long. 700 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 5: Time, you know, it's unbelievab. 701 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:04,080 Speaker 10: You know, he's always been doubted since he was fourteen 702 00:35:04,120 --> 00:35:06,520 Speaker 10: fifteen years old, and it'd be able to overcome everything. 703 00:35:06,560 --> 00:35:08,879 Speaker 10: He never had a bad rap for anything off the field. 704 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 10: So he's a great role model look. 705 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,640 Speaker 1: After and still getting it done, still getting done, definitely 706 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: still getting done. So Michael Vick and Ladani and Tomlinson 707 00:35:16,239 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 1: in football, but overall, Lebron James. What do you like 708 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: to spend your money on? 709 00:35:22,840 --> 00:35:26,839 Speaker 10: Uh, I've been buying a lot of clo clothes lately. 710 00:35:27,080 --> 00:35:29,480 Speaker 10: I'll say closed right now, your closed horse, right now? 711 00:35:29,480 --> 00:35:30,719 Speaker 10: I am yeah, right now. 712 00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:34,319 Speaker 1: Aside from sports, what are you good at? 713 00:35:35,040 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 10: Besides playing football? I golf every day, so and that's 714 00:35:37,640 --> 00:35:38,840 Speaker 10: a sport. So I don't know if I can say that, 715 00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:41,279 Speaker 10: But besides football, I literally golf every day. It's kind 716 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:43,839 Speaker 10: of a hobby I picked up since my rookie year 717 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 10: and I actually got really good at it, you know 718 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:49,759 Speaker 10: the past few years. You know, I broke parr a 719 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,359 Speaker 10: couple of times. So uh yeah, that's what I'm saying. 720 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 10: I broke part like two or three times, so I 721 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:57,879 Speaker 10: should I should around, you know, seventy eight seventy nine 722 00:35:57,880 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 10: every time I play for the most part. 723 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,839 Speaker 5: Now, so I'll say that, all. 724 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 1: Right, I played my whole life and you're ticking me 725 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:08,480 Speaker 1: off as I struggle to break eighty. Your hometown, Newcastle, Pennsylvania, 726 00:36:08,480 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: has been called the fireworks capital of the world. What 727 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:14,319 Speaker 1: do you know if anything about fireworks in Newcastle? 728 00:36:14,560 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 10: No, it definitely is. So I actually tell people that 729 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:18,719 Speaker 10: all the time. If you look out one because they 730 00:36:18,719 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 10: were like, what's a Newcastle? I said, look it up. 731 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 10: We're a firework capital world. But usually every year we 732 00:36:22,960 --> 00:36:27,680 Speaker 10: have a big old celebration downtown for July where everyone 733 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:28,800 Speaker 10: goes like sky King. 734 00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 5: Or like somewhere like that, and I do it every year. 735 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:32,640 Speaker 5: I go to sky King. 736 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,080 Speaker 10: They helped discount me as much as they can. I 737 00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,560 Speaker 10: bought my fireworks and I put on a show, usually 738 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:38,320 Speaker 10: from my neighborhood. 739 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 5: So I love it. 740 00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 10: I don't like them off no more after what happened. 741 00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:44,880 Speaker 10: I saw what happened with Jason Pierre Paul, so I 742 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 10: don't like them no more. But I make sure I 743 00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:48,879 Speaker 10: buy enough and make sure everyone has a good show. 744 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,880 Speaker 1: Good have somebody else handle the lighting them a part. 745 00:36:52,280 --> 00:36:54,959 Speaker 1: Final question, This one's kind of deep. If you could 746 00:36:54,960 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: meet anybody in history, living or deceased, who would that 747 00:36:59,360 --> 00:36:59,759 Speaker 1: person be? 748 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 5: D that's a deep one. 749 00:37:02,400 --> 00:37:07,719 Speaker 10: I'd probably say my grandmother's father, That's what I'll say, 750 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,040 Speaker 10: just because I heard so many stories of about him, 751 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 10: and how I was so much alike him in that 752 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 10: our mind. I remind him of my family all the time. 753 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,000 Speaker 10: So I'd probably say him just because I heard. I 754 00:37:22,160 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 10: heard how great of you know father he was, how 755 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:26,160 Speaker 10: how hard of a work he was, you know what 756 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,359 Speaker 10: he did this? I'm pretty sure he working to still 757 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 10: know stuff. I death so I would see him. 758 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:33,359 Speaker 1: This has been great.
