Coach Kyer talked about that. I happen to 73 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:31,959 Speaker 2: see that because I was watching TV this this weekend, 74 00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:35,440 Speaker 2: and like other weekends. You know, we don't really I mean, 75 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 2: at this point in time of the season, we haven't 76 00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:40,800 Speaker 2: been in pads for about three weeks now. Rules that 77 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: rules don't really lie you being pads too much, but 78 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: also we haven't wanted to be, we haven't needed to be. 79 00:03:45,680 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 2: We are focused. We will focus on technique for sure, 80 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,400 Speaker 2: blocking technique and all the different things that we do, 81 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 2: but it's not this point in time of the season. 82 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 2: There's not a lot of hitting that you do in 83 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 2: practice anyway, So it's kind of where we're at. Johnny, 84 00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: you could Justice Hill return for practice this week possibility. 85 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 2: I'll probably know more about that closer to Wednesday, but 86 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 2: I haven't. We haven't discussed that yet today. 87 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 5: John M. 88 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,560 Speaker 6: Tyler probably you know, you talk about him when you 89 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:18,599 Speaker 6: guys brought back here. 90 00:04:18,640 --> 00:04:19,520 Speaker 5: Obviously you'd been. 91 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 6: Here, you know a number of years and then went 92 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:28,200 Speaker 6: away and then he comes back. What what gaves? What 93 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 6: what gave you guys the beolief and trust in him. 94 00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:34,360 Speaker 6: You know, we've seen how he's played in these sort 95 00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 6: of must win games this year and how have you 96 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 6: so you sort of see him grow, uh. 97 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 5: You know, to this point in his career. 98 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,359 Speaker 2: Well, you know, it's just a compliment, I think, a 99 00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 2: credit to him and what he's been doing all really 100 00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:51,040 Speaker 2: since he got into the NFL. He was a hard worker, 101 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 2: you know when he came here and had a couple 102 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 2: opportunities as you were, as you remember, you know, and 103 00:04:56,080 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: and did uh, it did pretty darn well, you know 104 00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 2: for the most part. And uh, and it kind of 105 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 2: showed he had a chance and then went into other 106 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 2: places and and continued to grow and improve. I feel 107 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 2: like there was noticeable improvement, you know, in different aspects 108 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 2: of his game. He'd be the first to tell you that, 109 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,880 Speaker 2: I know. And uh, and then you know, when we 110 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: when he came back in, you know, we'd watched him 111 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:19,800 Speaker 2: on tape, we'd seen him in games from last year 112 00:05:19,800 --> 00:05:22,600 Speaker 2: and then preseason tape this year. But when he came 113 00:05:22,640 --> 00:05:25,919 Speaker 2: back in, uh just because the opportunity presented itself. You know, 114 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 2: he was available, and uh, it was it was just 115 00:05:28,800 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 2: really an opportune type of a thing for us. And 116 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: he looked good in practice. You know, he look he 117 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 2: looked like wow. You know, I'll tell you snoops, come 118 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:37,960 Speaker 2: come away. As he's improved and he was good before. 119 00:05:38,040 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 2: So uh, to see it come to fruition in these 120 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,679 Speaker 2: games and to win these big games is really awesome. 121 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 2: You know, it's just incredible and night wonderful and and 122 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: and he deserves it and we're we're definitely appreciative of it. 123 00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:51,000 Speaker 2: I mean, the guys, the guys, Uh, the guy's rally 124 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: played great football around him, and he played a heck 125 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,200 Speaker 2: of game. 126 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 6: Maybe be one of those noticeable improvements. 127 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, I just think it's just operating the offense. 128 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: You know, for sure. Decision making at the line was 129 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:06,440 Speaker 2: really good. Uh, you're in Lambeau. It's loud. It wasn't perfect. 130 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: We had a couple of pre snap things, but nothing 131 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,839 Speaker 2: nothing too too damaging. Ball handling I thought was good, 132 00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 2: ball security, protected the football, made good decisions where he 133 00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: put the ball, throwing it, got the ball out, you know, 134 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,880 Speaker 2: really in good rhythm. On the on the because they 135 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:22,719 Speaker 2: were mostly all rhythm passes, got the ball out on rhythm. 136 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 2: All those things were were It's definitely a step up 137 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 2: probably you know as he in his career, i'd say, 138 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: continued to climb with I knew the market. 139 00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: Practice so last week, but throughout the week with the 140 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,039 Speaker 3: back intusion. 141 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 5: Was their improvements to you? 142 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 3: Were you told with their improvements with them throughout that week? 143 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 5: Though? 144 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, absolutely there was improvement throughout the week. Uh, 145 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,200 Speaker 2: I mean it was. It was not good at all 146 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 2: early in the week and it improved as the week 147 00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:49,359 Speaker 2: went on. And that was that was cause for you 148 00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:50,680 Speaker 2: know optimism. 149 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,120 Speaker 7: The final decision coming down to the training staff and 150 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,280 Speaker 7: consulting with them as that won't make it. 151 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,760 Speaker 2: It's what it always is. The doctors and training staff. 152 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,800 Speaker 2: The coaches aren't deciding, you know, who plays from radical standpoint, 153 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:05,840 Speaker 2: the the effectiveness that you've have seen from Snoop in 154 00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: his two starts, does that does that. 155 00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:09,320 Speaker 3: Change the calculus at all? 156 00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 6: I mean, if if Lamar is kind of close to 157 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 6: ready but you're not. 158 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 3: Sure, like do you push it or not push it? 159 00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 4: The fact that you have a lot of confidence and Tyler, 160 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 4: does that play into. 161 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 2: That or no. I think the fact that we have 162 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,520 Speaker 2: a lot of confident in Tyler is a real big 163 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 2: positive and real plus. But it doesn't factor into whether 164 00:07:25,040 --> 00:07:27,720 Speaker 2: Lamar plays. If Lamar is ready to go, he's playing. 165 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 2: That's it for sure. 166 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 6: John here all in the excitement posting, you did acknowledge 167 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 6: kind of the shock of how the defense played. 168 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:39,840 Speaker 3: Now having reviewed to take and you know what did 169 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:40,440 Speaker 3: you make with that? 170 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:42,480 Speaker 5: You talked about big players. 171 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 3: You know, was there a theme? Was something that really 172 00:07:44,200 --> 00:07:45,880 Speaker 3: comes out is sort of why that was happening? 173 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:46,800 Speaker 5: Yeah, there was. 174 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:48,720 Speaker 2: I mean it was just technique. It was technique in 175 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: the back end really, you know, corner position, you know, 176 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: and uh, it wasn't anything. It wasn't really across the board. 177 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't any kind of miscommunications or anything like that. 178 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,880 Speaker 2: We played things right, We just didn't play. We didn't play. 179 00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 2: We didn't play the past game. 180 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 5: Well. 181 00:08:03,080 --> 00:08:05,360 Speaker 2: Uh, from a coverage standpoint, in the back end, it 182 00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: was really outside lane throws that you saw made. Uh 183 00:08:09,520 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 2: they were they were just too easy, you know, we 184 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 2: didn't cover them well. And then the quarterback getting out 185 00:08:14,360 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: of pocket. You know, we got him a few times, 186 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: but he got out a few times. You know he's elusive, 187 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 2: but a couple of those were more our fault, you know, 188 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,520 Speaker 2: just our rush lanes weren't uh as good as they 189 00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 2: needed to be. And sometimes it was getting him down too. 190 00:08:26,920 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: He got out our grasp once or twice. So those 191 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: are the two things that were very much pinpointed to 192 00:08:33,559 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 2: the problem in terms of the yards that were given up. 193 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 5: We had one I'll say this, we had. 194 00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 2: One seam route. The first touchdown was a seam route 195 00:08:42,520 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 2: against Cover two that we didn't We didn't play that 196 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:48,440 Speaker 2: right and or well and honestly to it, you know, 197 00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 2: it wasn't a great call against that route. So I'd 198 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: say I'd say those those were the Those are the three. 199 00:08:54,280 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 8: Things Johnny Guy post of three tapers running in But 200 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 8: just the deafness of the zone running game over these 201 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 8: past couple of weeks where we're there has just been 202 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 8: you know, pipping off chunk games like we're kind of 203 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 8: a kind of seen from the packet or aspect of 204 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 8: your runing. 205 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's probably up average wise, just because 206 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 2: we hit some big runs, you know, and it hasn't 207 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: all it hasn't all been you say, zone and there's 208 00:09:21,280 --> 00:09:23,800 Speaker 2: a lot of versions of zone runs, you know, and 209 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,280 Speaker 2: like the last one was was a toss zone play 210 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 2: that we run with a crack block on the edge, 211 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 2: and you saw Das have have a heck of a 212 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 2: block on the defensive end there, you know. So I 213 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 2: think a lot of a lot of it's just it's 214 00:09:35,800 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 2: really execution, you're really what it really is, what it is, 215 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 2: and we do it. 216 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:39,679 Speaker 5: We do. 217 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: I think our coaches do a really good job of 218 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 2: scheming up the run game and presenting it all the 219 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: different types of schemes, but even just the zone the 220 00:09:47,440 --> 00:09:51,120 Speaker 2: zone versions presenting it different ways. There's different ways to 221 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:54,440 Speaker 2: tag it in terms of, you know, how you're blocking 222 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 2: the edges, how you're blocking the linebackers who you're working towards, 223 00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 2: and that sort of thing where it's an inside zone 224 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,240 Speaker 2: and outside zone and cut back play, a bounce play, 225 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:03,560 Speaker 2: and these are all things that are part of it 226 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:06,040 Speaker 2: that I think have been put together really well. But 227 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 2: really the main thing is the execution. You know, The 228 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: blocking and the running have made them work. 229 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 3: You talk about that, I'm curious what you see from 230 00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 3: the tight ends. It looked like the tight ends are 231 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 3: really blocking very well. 232 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 7: In Green Bay, Isaiah likely had a really good blocking 233 00:10:20,880 --> 00:10:22,600 Speaker 7: digit what'd you see from them in that retar? 234 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really good, really good. Isaiah was really good 235 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 2: on the edge, did a great job and numerous different 236 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:30,959 Speaker 2: opportunities and gave them a lot of trouble out there 237 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 2: on the edge. But really, I mean that there's a 238 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: new challenge this week because these guys on the edge 239 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 2: are really good. I mean, these outside backers that we're 240 00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 2: about to go against in Pittsburgh, we go, we know 241 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 2: them well, we play them a lot. They know how 242 00:10:43,720 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 2: to get off blocks. I mean, they do a great 243 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 2: job of setting the edge and tearing off blocks, probably 244 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,440 Speaker 2: as good or better than anybody in the league in 245 00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 2: terms of that. In terms of that, in terms of 246 00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,200 Speaker 2: their run defense. The other thing to do a great 247 00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 2: job of is they present off the backside edge really 248 00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: really aggressively on your zone run games. So you've got 249 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 2: to deal with those guys. That's kind of where it starts. 250 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,679 Speaker 2: You know, you want to run the one run the 251 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 2: outside zone play man, you better, you better have a 252 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 2: plan for those guys. 253 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:11,600 Speaker 4: John, was the plans to kind of lean on Derek 254 00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 4: as much as you guys did, or was it you know, 255 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 4: as you saw that the kind of Knight of was 256 00:11:17,080 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 4: having you kind of just pivoted that way. 257 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: It was to lean on him like we did. Uh 258 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: and uh, you know, I know there's a lot of 259 00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 2: talk about that, but it's pretty much pretty much always 260 00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 2: the plan that way to a degree. But I would 261 00:11:30,040 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: say definitely ramped it up for sure conditions and and uh, 262 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:34,880 Speaker 2: where we're at it as a team, you know, where 263 00:11:34,960 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 2: offense is at, and what we thought was the best 264 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: way to win the game was definitely Derrick Henry, you know. 265 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 2: And then the opportunity was really presented itself because we 266 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 2: were having success and we got plays. You know, so 267 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:48,560 Speaker 2: the more plays you have, the more times you can 268 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 2: run it, uh, and the more times you give to Derek. 269 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:53,320 Speaker 2: And really the only times you really came off the 270 00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: field were you know, obvious third downs and uh and 271 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 2: when he when he needed a break. So that's kind 272 00:11:58,160 --> 00:11:58,640 Speaker 2: of how it went. 273 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,000 Speaker 6: You guys have obviously put each other a million times. 274 00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 6: Rival raid is what it is. First time, this will 275 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 6: be a winner, go home game for you know, these 276 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,880 Speaker 6: two teams in Week eight team and I'm just curious 277 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,160 Speaker 6: you're now you're focused on the game, but you're what 278 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 6: do you think of that? And and do you do 279 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:25,080 Speaker 6: you you know, does that do you find that interesting 280 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:26,360 Speaker 6: or compelling in anyway? 281 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:28,679 Speaker 2: Yeah? You know, I really didn't realize it until Chad 282 00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:30,360 Speaker 2: mentioned it when we were walking in the room here. 283 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 2: You know, I guess he anticipated your question and I 284 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:35,840 Speaker 2: was like, wow, that's is that right? You know, I 285 00:12:35,840 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 2: didn't realize that that's that's that's something. And we probably 286 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 2: would have thought it wouldn't have been you know, it 287 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 2: might have been another time it would have come up. 288 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:45,400 Speaker 2: But uh, that's about the much headspaces I can give it. 289 00:12:45,679 --> 00:12:48,600 Speaker 2: Uh So, other than that, it's a it's a it's 290 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:51,360 Speaker 2: a it's a division championship game for sure, But it's 291 00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 2: a game. You know, it's a game. It's in Pittsburgh 292 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 2: against the Steelers. You know, we kind of understand that 293 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,439 Speaker 2: that part of it too. So we've got to get 294 00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,079 Speaker 2: ready for all that. 295 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,080 Speaker 4: DK metcalfin not being available to them. How does that 296 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 4: change kind of your preparation. 297 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 3: For that all? 298 00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:08,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean, you know, you look at who's in 299 00:13:08,360 --> 00:13:10,640 Speaker 2: and who's out for sure. I mean, obviously you know 300 00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,439 Speaker 2: DK Metcalf you know, that's a that's a look at trouble. 301 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,120 Speaker 2: He gave us in the first game. Uh So that's 302 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 2: that's you factor it your factor Washington whether he can 303 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,439 Speaker 2: play or not for sure, Austin whether he can play 304 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 2: or not for sure. Those are those are big playmakers 305 00:13:24,000 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 2: for those guys. But then you look at the you 306 00:13:26,120 --> 00:13:28,439 Speaker 2: know the other guys they have, you know, Gainwell is incredible. 307 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 2: Uh They're running backs are just I think top of 308 00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:33,480 Speaker 2: the line running backs. I mean, both those two guys are. 309 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:37,280 Speaker 2: Jalen's amazing, you know downhill, and they get him the 310 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: ball in so many different ways. They do a great 311 00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:42,079 Speaker 2: job of getting in the ball. I mean they'll run 312 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:45,320 Speaker 2: a progression pass concept over here. Then they'll have like 313 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: a it's a we call it an escort type of 314 00:13:47,840 --> 00:13:49,959 Speaker 2: a flair pass, and it's really a it's a run play, 315 00:13:50,360 --> 00:13:52,200 Speaker 2: you know, if they dump it out there and Aaron 316 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 2: does an incredible job of sorting all stuff out screens. Uh, 317 00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:58,560 Speaker 2: just they do a great job. And then you've got 318 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:00,679 Speaker 2: the tight ends. I mean, those they got two tight 319 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 2: ends that are legitimate, big time pass catching threats. So 320 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:06,520 Speaker 2: we've got to deal with both those two guys. And 321 00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 2: then John new I mean he'll he'll take it sweep, 322 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 2: so he'll get in the backfield and run it, he'll 323 00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 2: take a pitch, you know, he'll do all that kind 324 00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: of stuff. He'll be up on the edge blocking in firemouth. 325 00:14:14,760 --> 00:14:17,720 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, really anywhere you know, down steam routes, 326 00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 2: middle of the field, you know, quick end breakers, stick routes, 327 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 2: option routes, seven routes to the corner. You've got to 328 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 2: be you know, all over those those routes with him. 329 00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: And then you know, you know, I mean the Valdez 330 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 2: s Gantling. You know, he's he's a big target and 331 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,880 Speaker 2: a fade and box fade and a crossing route guy 332 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 2: and big body guy. So he kind of fills that 333 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 2: role for Metcalf to a agree. I mean, they've got guys. 334 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:47,520 Speaker 2: They've got guys, So the game plan for the guys 335 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:47,880 Speaker 2: that they. 336 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:51,760 Speaker 3: Have in some matters just the way it should be. 337 00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 7: This is I mean, the NFL decided to making this 338 00:14:54,360 --> 00:15:00,400 Speaker 7: game from hime two of the regular season, u knowing 339 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,360 Speaker 7: the history between these two teams, and it all comes 340 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 7: down to. 341 00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:06,920 Speaker 3: Just the regular season going into this year. 342 00:15:07,040 --> 00:15:09,040 Speaker 7: I mean a lot of people thought it was gonna 343 00:15:09,040 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 7: come down to the Ravens in this year. 344 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:11,640 Speaker 5: But I don't know, if you look at it the 345 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 5: same way. 346 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:14,360 Speaker 7: Or look at the way the NFL has placed this 347 00:15:14,440 --> 00:15:16,560 Speaker 7: game on Sunday and I have the same fashion with 348 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:18,560 Speaker 7: the respect of showing the franchises. 349 00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, what's the question? 350 00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:24,120 Speaker 5: I was absolutely as. 351 00:15:25,720 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 2: My thoughts on it being the last game is that 352 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:28,200 Speaker 2: the question. 353 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: And the longstanding history and the fact that the NFL 354 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:32,640 Speaker 3: showed you got so much respect. 355 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,880 Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, I got lost for a minute. It 356 00:15:36,960 --> 00:15:40,160 Speaker 2: was well said, though. What you said was really cool. 357 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 2: I just I was swimming in it a little bit. Yeah, 358 00:15:45,520 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 2: it's it's it's really awesome. I mean, I agree with you. 359 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,520 Speaker 2: I think it's really cool. It's uh, it's it's it's 360 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:53,680 Speaker 2: what you want. It's uh, it's nobody was disappointed, you 361 00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 2: know that we're playing Sunday night. It's not really what 362 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,360 Speaker 2: you know, it's not forefront of your mind because we 363 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,360 Speaker 2: got to go play the game. You know, the game 364 00:16:00,360 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 2: could have been at four o'clock, could have been one o'clock, 365 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 2: could have been could have been Saturday, Saturday night. You 366 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,520 Speaker 2: know that would have been fine. I wouldn't have really cared. 367 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 2: So the fact that Sunday night just means we got 368 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:10,400 Speaker 2: to wait longer. 369 00:16:10,440 --> 00:16:10,600 Speaker 9: You know. 370 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:12,040 Speaker 2: It's kind of my mindset is like, man, we got 371 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 2: to wait that much longer to go play, So we 372 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:16,440 Speaker 2: got to set our clock accordingly and be ready, you know, 373 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,160 Speaker 2: at eight twenty on Sunday night. But all those things 374 00:16:19,200 --> 00:16:21,000 Speaker 2: you're talking about, I think when you take a step back, 375 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:23,640 Speaker 2: you know, especially as a Ravens fan, you know, or 376 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:26,120 Speaker 2: in the organization, you guys take a step back, and 377 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:27,240 Speaker 2: you got to you know, now your head a little 378 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,640 Speaker 2: bit and go, yeah, that's probably the way it should be. 379 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:28,920 Speaker 5: You know. 380 00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:32,600 Speaker 2: We we respect the Steelers, you know, the organization, and 381 00:16:32,760 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: we respect the AFC North, you know, and so all 382 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,240 Speaker 2: those things you're saying, Sure, I acknowledge that and and 383 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:43,200 Speaker 2: feel good about it along. 384 00:16:43,000 --> 00:16:46,280 Speaker 8: Those lives as you know, someone who's adverse in football 385 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 8: history as you are. 386 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:49,280 Speaker 5: Was it surprising to you? Is that to learn if 387 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 5: there's never been an eight North three pet. 388 00:16:51,640 --> 00:16:54,880 Speaker 8: And after you guys are waiting away from that side 389 00:16:54,920 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 8: of the field. 390 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, I've known that for a while. It was a surprise, 391 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,320 Speaker 2: but then not a surprise when I thought about it 392 00:17:02,320 --> 00:17:06,160 Speaker 2: for about five seconds, you know, because it's so darn competitive. 393 00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,080 Speaker 2: Kind of goes back to what you're talking about. I mean, 394 00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 2: I'm assuming it's the only division that that's the case. 395 00:17:11,480 --> 00:17:14,400 Speaker 2: I bet it is if we were allowed to bet. 396 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 2: So the it's it's something to think about. It's it's 397 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 2: a big deal, but it's a game, you know. So 398 00:17:28,040 --> 00:17:31,560 Speaker 2: it's like any big game. There's a lot riding out 399 00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:33,240 Speaker 2: and there's a lot to there's a lot to there's 400 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:35,399 Speaker 2: a lot of a lot to earn, you know, but 401 00:17:35,440 --> 00:17:37,200 Speaker 2: you got to go play winning football game. You gotta 402 00:17:37,240 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 2: go play the type of game that can beat a 403 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:41,359 Speaker 2: really good football team in their stadium, you know, really 404 00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:43,879 Speaker 2: when the stakes are really high, you know. And I 405 00:17:43,920 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 2: know they feel the same way. But it's our responsibility 406 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,679 Speaker 2: to take care of us, take care of our business, 407 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:50,520 Speaker 2: play our game the way we play it, you know, 408 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:52,720 Speaker 2: and and to execute it the way we need to 409 00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 2: execute to get the job done. Keep it simple, Go 410 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 2: play hard, go play well, Go play good football. Our 411 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,959 Speaker 2: goal will be to play our best game of the season, 412 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:03,520 Speaker 2: you know, and that's what we'll be really focused on, 413 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,239 Speaker 2: you know. That's what we have to get ready for. 414 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 4: I know, probably the anxiety ridden to watch party, but 415 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 4: it's also I guess a cool film for you guys. 416 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:12,720 Speaker 5: Is there anything that. 417 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 9: Stuck out about the Browns game plan against the Steelers that. 418 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 5: You guys are drawing from. 419 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:23,119 Speaker 2: Uh, well, like all three phases kind of generally, I 420 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,320 Speaker 2: thought the Browns, you know, their game plan was probably 421 00:18:25,359 --> 00:18:29,159 Speaker 2: play to their defense, you know, and that's smart. You know. 422 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:32,399 Speaker 2: They did a great job with that. Their defense was 423 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 2: up to it, played a great game offensively. They didn't 424 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 2: have too many mistakes. They had a couple, they had 425 00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,879 Speaker 2: one close call it that didn't didn't hurt them. They 426 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,560 Speaker 2: had another pick you know, down there in their end. 427 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: But I'm sure they tried to minimize their their the turnovers. 428 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 2: You know, that was probably a big part of their plan. 429 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: They did that for the most part. They ran the 430 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:52,320 Speaker 2: ball pretty well times, you know, effectively, but they played 431 00:18:52,320 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 2: a field position game, you know, so uh and special 432 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 2: teams was solid for them. So that was probably, you know, 433 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,879 Speaker 2: probably the basis of their plan. I would think, is. 434 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 3: There anything when you feel like can you apply to. 435 00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:04,560 Speaker 4: Our team guys? 436 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, absolutely. I mean all those things 437 00:19:07,280 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: are going to be really really important. We're not the 438 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 2: same team as them, so you know, we'll lean on 439 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:15,720 Speaker 2: different things schematically, we'll lean on different things probably strategically, 440 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:20,720 Speaker 2: you know, but generally, a winning football game, you know, 441 00:19:20,760 --> 00:19:22,920 Speaker 2: I think that was kind of the basis. I think 442 00:19:22,920 --> 00:19:26,080 Speaker 2: they tried to shorten the game. You know, that's always 443 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,199 Speaker 2: part of it. But you know, you also have to 444 00:19:28,359 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 2: play to your strengths, and we have we have certain 445 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 2: strengths you know that other teams don't have, you know, 446 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 2: so we want to play to those strengths too. 447 00:19:35,080 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 6: You know, when you're watching the really tense moments of 448 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 6: a game like that, are you are. 449 00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 3: You still a coach or are you still in coach brain? 450 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 5: Or are you are you a fan? 451 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 2: At those common fan model, be honest with you. I mean, 452 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,720 Speaker 2: I'm I'm complaining about the play calls, you know, I'm 453 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:50,640 Speaker 2: I'm wonder why they didn't do this or that. 454 00:19:50,760 --> 00:19:51,600 Speaker 5: You know, what do they think? 455 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 1: Ye? 456 00:19:53,359 --> 00:19:56,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, the clock management, you know, we do. I got 457 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,120 Speaker 2: to just be an honest. 458 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 8: John was a se ration viewed in because you know, 459 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 8: the challenge that's head or what was the atmosphere like 460 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:06,040 Speaker 8: when they finally. 461 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:06,600 Speaker 2: Had it was? 462 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:06,879 Speaker 5: It was? 463 00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,840 Speaker 2: It was? It was. It was woke, it was it 464 00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 2: was uncorked, man, it was, it was. 465 00:20:11,400 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 5: It was. 466 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,679 Speaker 2: It was raucous. 467 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:13,560 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was great. 468 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,879 Speaker 2: Everybody was jumping around and fired up and happy. A 469 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 2: lot of hugging, a lot of hugging. You know, you talk. 470 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:22,160 Speaker 9: About the belief and the team throughout the week going 471 00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 9: into that. 472 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 3: Must win game in Green Bay. 473 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 4: What did you like about the emotions that went into that. 474 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,199 Speaker 9: Game and really the accountability that the players had for 475 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,360 Speaker 9: each other too, just like getting plays done, making sure 476 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 9: there were you know, minimum states throughout, but also in 477 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 9: a sense of taking that. 478 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:39,679 Speaker 3: Into another must win. 479 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,120 Speaker 2: Game in a row here, right, Well, yeah, that's exactly right. 480 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, we we've we've we've been We've 481 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 2: been playing with a lot of energy, a lot of emotion, 482 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:52,520 Speaker 2: a lot of physicality for a lot of weeks, you know, 483 00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 2: and I feel like our team has carried out all season. 484 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,679 Speaker 2: Like most teams we've had, We've had ups and downs 485 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: with our execution, and our execution probably was at you know, 486 00:21:03,680 --> 00:21:05,960 Speaker 2: for the most part, a really high level throughout the 487 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:08,880 Speaker 2: game in all three phases, but not where we want 488 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 2: it to be either. So we've got to keep chasing 489 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 2: the execution. But as far as the other part you're 490 00:21:12,920 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 2: talking about that, you know, the intangible part, I thought 491 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,239 Speaker 2: that was a really high level and it has been 492 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:21,200 Speaker 2: at a high level, but probably at its highest level. 493 00:21:21,920 --> 00:21:24,000 Speaker 2: So we need to even take that to the next 494 00:21:24,080 --> 00:21:26,159 Speaker 2: level too, because it has to go there. You know, 495 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,600 Speaker 2: this is a playoff game, then then you know, if 496 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,040 Speaker 2: you know, then there's after that. It's going to just 497 00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:32,639 Speaker 2: keep ramping up. I don't know if it can get 498 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,200 Speaker 2: much more intention and it's going to get on Sunday night, 499 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,439 Speaker 2: but it's in that realm. It's going to be in 500 00:21:37,440 --> 00:21:39,600 Speaker 2: that realm. So we've got to be ready for it. 501 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,560 Speaker 6: You talked about, you know, you were asked about job 502 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 6: security last week. 503 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,679 Speaker 5: If you expect you back next year. A lot of 504 00:21:48,720 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 5: people are going to. 505 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,520 Speaker 6: Maybe look at this game, probably unfairly. So is it 506 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 6: kind of referenced between you yourself and Mike is the 507 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:57,280 Speaker 6: too longest tenured coaches in the league. 508 00:21:57,240 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 5: And I'm just. 509 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 6: Curious that you feel that at all and kind of 510 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:03,880 Speaker 6: just how you view that. 511 00:22:05,359 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 5: Generally. 512 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, I really just really don't have the space for that. 513 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 2: You know, it's just not something that you have the 514 00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:19,040 Speaker 2: ability to think about. It's not important. It was important, 515 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 2: you had an impact and a bearing, you know, then 516 00:22:21,680 --> 00:22:24,240 Speaker 2: you I think you think about it, but you think 517 00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 2: about it because it's always that way, you know, So 518 00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:29,119 Speaker 2: it's probably all that stuff makes it all kind of 519 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 2: interesting and kind of fun and and real. Uh it's 520 00:22:32,720 --> 00:22:35,400 Speaker 2: it's uh, it's sports. You know, that's how sports are. 521 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,560 Speaker 2: And I think that's part of the intrigue of it all. 522 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 2: So I feel like really honored to be a part 523 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 2: of that. And if I just being honest with you, 524 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 2: I feel really honored to be a part of it. 525 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,840 Speaker 2: I know there's there's always pressure. There's always pressure, But 526 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:48,679 Speaker 2: you know, I think it was Billy Jean King who 527 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,440 Speaker 2: said pressure is a privilege, right was it was it 528 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,760 Speaker 2: Billy Jean King who said that, you know, and that's 529 00:22:52,800 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 2: that's something that is earned, you know. So you know, 530 00:22:55,359 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 2: we feel we feel we feel like it's it's something 531 00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:05,640 Speaker 2: very worthwhile to be in games like this. And if 532 00:23:05,640 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 2: those are the things are being talked about along with that, 533 00:23:07,800 --> 00:23:11,320 Speaker 2: that's okay. You know, that's a privilege too. So let's 534 00:23:11,359 --> 00:23:12,679 Speaker 2: get to work and let's go try to play our 535 00:23:12,680 --> 00:23:14,480 Speaker 2: best game, try to coach our best game. 536 00:23:15,560 --> 00:23:18,040 Speaker 4: John turn them Where's have been kind of like the 537 00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:20,520 Speaker 4: the key thing in some of these big games, especially 538 00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 4: at some of the big moments, is that something that 539 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:28,800 Speaker 4: you feel like you need to over emphasize going into 540 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,959 Speaker 4: this game, or do you not want to spend too 541 00:23:31,040 --> 00:23:33,840 Speaker 4: much time talking about something you don't want to be 542 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 4: an issue. 543 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's good, good, good psychology question. Probably you know 544 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 2: what would be the best way to make it clear? 545 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 2: Make the point? But we we Uh it's critically important. 546 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:47,120 Speaker 2: You know, probably couldn't over emphasize it enough. And uh, 547 00:23:47,200 --> 00:23:49,280 Speaker 2: and it's just gonna be so important. I mean, the 548 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 2: team that wins the turnover battle is gonna have a 549 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 2: real edge and winning the game. So we know that 550 00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: that needs to be us. We need to make that happen. 551 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,400 Speaker 2: You know, they're having the exact same conversation over there, 552 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:00,200 Speaker 2: just like every team that's playing this week is talking about. 553 00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:02,960 Speaker 2: But in a game like this, that's that's it. It's 554 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: going to start with that. So we got to make 555 00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:06,440 Speaker 2: that priority one. 556 00:24:07,560 --> 00:24:09,399 Speaker 5: How did you get out of that game health wise? 557 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 5: Otherwise we got out of it? 558 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,479 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, we're wearing good shape healthwise, nothing else. Uh, 559 00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:19,000 Speaker 2: that's that's a major thing. Or it looks like it's 560 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 2: going to be an issue at this point in time. 561 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 2: Hopefully nothing will pop up as a week goes on. 562 00:24:24,040 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 5: Marlin gonna have the player with the whatever, that's a 563 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 5: good question. 564 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,680 Speaker 2: There's a timeframe on that I'm not sure if this week, 565 00:24:30,720 --> 00:24:33,639 Speaker 2: if it's coming off or not, we'll know more about that. 566 00:24:33,720 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 2: I just don't know, but it's gonna be kind of 567 00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:39,159 Speaker 2: in this range. I think we'll check on that for you. 568 00:24:40,080 --> 00:24:43,680 Speaker 10: Okay, all right. Football fans know that traditions matter.
