86
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,480
Speaker 5: people in your family work in the game of football.

87
00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 5: In regard to being a coach.

88
00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 7: I don't think there's a man in my family that

89
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:12,560
Speaker 7: does not do football.

90
00:04:12,800 --> 00:04:13,760
Speaker 1: Are you see everybody?

91
00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 6: He's a high school football coach somehow.

92
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:17,560
Speaker 1: Oh oh my goodness, whether.

93
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,839
Speaker 7: It's a head coach, O line, d line coach something.

94
00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 7: It's been like that since my whole life.

95
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:25,440
Speaker 5: See that is that is that blows me away, because

96
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,760
Speaker 5: you know, I grew up in a football family. My

97
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,880
Speaker 5: older brother, Craig, he played twelve years in the NFL.

98
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 5: My younger brother Dale has passed, but he was better

99
00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:36,039
Speaker 5: than both of us put together. He played a long

100
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,800
Speaker 5: time at college football, and yet at the same time,

101
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:42,760
Speaker 5: that's nowhere even close to what you've just described. You

102
00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:45,440
Speaker 5: are a football family, Are you.

103
00:04:45,480 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 7: Not the hunter for saying I always say that, you know,

104
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,680
Speaker 7: all their journeys, you know, led up to me being

105
00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 7: right here, right, everything that they learned throughout their time.

106
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,960
Speaker 7: And they were all great football players and in every

107
00:04:56,960 --> 00:04:59,480
Speaker 7: sport they played in, really, and so they understood what

108
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,960
Speaker 7: it took to get to where they were at, right

109
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 7: and so, and then in order for me to take

110
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 7: the next step, they invested all their love, time, energy

111
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,359
Speaker 7: and effort into me growing up, whether it was in

112
00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:13,279
Speaker 7: junior high, high school, college, and you know, it wasn't

113
00:05:13,320 --> 00:05:15,239
Speaker 7: just me that made it, you know, A to the NFL.

114
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:17,599
Speaker 6: It's all those man. That's why they always come to everything,

115
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:21,320
Speaker 6: because it's they deserve it, man, They deserve it. Oh,

116
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 6: I love it right and.

117
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: A temp native. It's not like anyone needs GPS around here. Okay,

118
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,040
Speaker 3: they know exactly where they're going. And we're gonna get

119
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,720
Speaker 3: into this and do a deep dive a little bit later,

120
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:34,240
Speaker 3: all right into his upbringing, high school ball here. Maybe

121
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:35,880
Speaker 3: we'll even get into the fact a year at U

122
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 3: of A even if former U of A guy saw

123
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 3: last night that it was targeting against Texas in that game.

124
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,680
Speaker 3: We'll get into that maybe a little bit later. But

125
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,279
Speaker 3: here you are. You have one week left in the

126
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 3: regular season. Just tell us about the mindset you had

127
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,520
Speaker 3: a division game, right, Nobody likes the stinking forty nine ers.

128
00:05:50,520 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 3: Everybody wants the season sweep against San Francisco. Okay, So

129
00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 3: tell us about the vibe in the locker room, the

130
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 3: mindset going into week eighteen.

131
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think it's the same thing every single week,

132
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 7: you know, And and we're hungry as ever, you know,

133
00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,280
Speaker 7: because because.

134
00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 6: This group of guys, we truly do love each other.

135
00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 7: And I think that's something you can see whether you're

136
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,719
Speaker 7: at the game where you're watching on TV. We'll fight

137
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:12,880
Speaker 7: tooth and nail for every single yard someone's got to

138
00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,080
Speaker 7: get on us and every sing yard we gained, you know,

139
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 7: and that comes from the top down, from the coaches

140
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,159
Speaker 7: to the leaders on our team.

141
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 6: You know.

142
00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 7: JG started the week meeting hot this week, right, just

143
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 7: coming in fire and yelling, and that's something that you know,

144
00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 7: it doesn't matter that happened week three, you know. So

145
00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 7: we're fifteen and now eighteen weeks, but fifteen week difference

146
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,560
Speaker 7: of this man just fired up every single day, you know.

147
00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,600
Speaker 7: So being able to play for a guy like that,

148
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 7: it's it's easy, you know, to go to work.

149
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 3: We host his TV show every Monday. Wolf Does that

150
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:47,760

00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 6: Yeah.

153
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,280
Speaker 5: But you know, for the most part too, I know

154
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,239
Speaker 5: what it's like to play on a lot of teams

155
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 5: where you've been eliminated. Unfortunately for me, I know what

156
00:06:59,000 --> 00:06:59,520
Speaker 5: that's like.

157
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:02,520
Speaker 1: No, right, okay, being eliminated.

158
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,080
Speaker 5: Yet at the same time, it really taught me what

159
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,880
Speaker 5: the game was all about, right when you were playing

160
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:11,760
Speaker 5: in a quote unquote meaningless game. There is no such

161
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,440
Speaker 5: thing as a meaningless NFL game.

162
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:15,320
Speaker 6: Yeah, I can agree.

163
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 7: Man, I've been on the teams that were you know,

164
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:20,680
Speaker 7: done in November, right, And so yeah, I would say

165
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 7: it every week to my family, like, oh, that next

166
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:24,200
Speaker 7: week's a big game, but that next one, next one

167
00:07:24,240 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 7: is going to be a really big game. And my

168
00:07:25,760 --> 00:07:27,320
Speaker 7: kind of my deal kind of just told me, like,

169
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,120
Speaker 7: you know, every game from here on now is big.

170
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,240
Speaker 7: So it was one of those It was definitely a

171
00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 7: cool moment in my career to be able to play

172
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 7: in a game where you know every play matters. You

173
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:38,640
Speaker 7: know so and every single one does in every game,

174
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 7: but those ones you can feel it.

175
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 6: Man.

176
00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,960
Speaker 5: I've got this idea that there's a lot of guys

177
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 5: in the locker room who play this game and played

178
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:48,360
Speaker 5: as hard as they possibly can. It's one of the

179
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 5: reasons why j G and Manti Assen for brought you

180
00:07:52,200 --> 00:07:54,239
Speaker 5: in and a lot of other guys that are built

181
00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 5: like you mentally, to bring you in and say let's

182
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,800
Speaker 5: go and let's ball out and let's do the best

183
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,800
Speaker 5: that we possibly can't. To me, I used to love

184
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 5: playing in games that were quote unquote meaningless because I'd

185
00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 5: go out there and challenge myself coming out of the tunnel.

186
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,040
Speaker 1: What are you gonna do today? What are you gonna

187
00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,760
Speaker 1: do today? Now what your team is gonna do today,

188
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:18,440
Speaker 1: but what are you gonna do today? Are you gonna

189
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: win or lose yourself?

190
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 5: Do you think there's a lot of guys that come

191
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 5: out of the locker room and have that mentality.

192
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 6: One hundred percent?

193
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:27,080
Speaker 7: I mean, you can take it back to last year

194
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:29,640
Speaker 7: when we went into Philly, right, it's not much to

195
00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 7: play for. People say, but you're going there and to

196
00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,040
Speaker 7: a playoff team and we take them four quarters to

197
00:08:34,040 --> 00:08:34,959
Speaker 7: take them down the wire.

198
00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 6: And end up winning the game. You know.

199
00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:38,960
Speaker 7: So that's the beauty of football. I think the biggest

200
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,800
Speaker 7: thing a lot of guys in this locker room. You know,

201
00:08:41,800 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 7: people can say you're playing for money, or you're playing

202
00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,200
Speaker 7: for status or whatever, but the biggest thing on this team,

203
00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,360
Speaker 7: there's the reason why this team was brought together is

204
00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:50,960
Speaker 7: for respect or a bunch of guys that just are

205
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:54,960
Speaker 7: dying for respecting the NFL, right, And so we play

206
00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,680
Speaker 7: like that in the moment we get recognition, we try

207
00:08:57,720 --> 00:09:00,599
Speaker 7: to bring it as a group because that's throughout this

208
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:01,160
Speaker 7: whole process.

209
00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 5: So I have to ask you this right here, because

210
00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:08,000
Speaker 5: I expected you guys to come out against Carolina Hot,

211
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 5: so to speak, and you guys did not. Why do

212
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,200
Speaker 5: you think that might have been Roy Lopez?

213
00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,360
Speaker 7: I think, honestly, I think they played a great ball.

214
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 7: They played a great game too, but played a great game.

215
00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 7: Bryce played a great game, and you know, hats off

216
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:23,200
Speaker 7: to them. You know, at the end of the day,

217
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 7: obviously we do got to play better, but they had

218
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:29,280
Speaker 7: a great game plan. They executed well, their coaches called

219
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 7: a great game, and you know it's tough we were

220
00:09:32,720 --> 00:09:33,280
Speaker 7: able to pull down on.

221
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 5: You know, I was thinking, there's there's about thirteen or

222
00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,520
Speaker 5: fourteen guys that are year two or under that are

223
00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:43,840
Speaker 5: actually playing in rotations or are starting on this team

224
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,320
Speaker 5: right now. Do you think it's the young guys that

225
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,960
Speaker 5: are still developing that they suddenly brought up to you

226
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:51,720
Speaker 5: in Carolina?

227
00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:51,960
Speaker 6: Right?

228
00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,560
Speaker 7: I think that's also something that's it never gets you

229
00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 7: never get over that, right, And here I am a

230
00:09:57,679 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 7: year four, still improving, still learning. Right, So as far

231
00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:04,440
Speaker 7: as to say it's the young guys you know doing that,

232
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,199
Speaker 7: that's gonna that's gonna be for as long as we

233
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:07,160
Speaker 7: play football, you know.

234
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:11,480
Speaker 6: So thankfully we have a great coup of young guys.

235
00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:13,280
Speaker 5: On this And the reason why I keep asking you

236
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 5: about this, Royd, is because it was so unlike everything

237
00:10:16,600 --> 00:10:20,320
Speaker 5: else I have seen that from you guys all season

238
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:21,680
Speaker 5: long for the most part.

239
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,959
Speaker 7: Right and right right in the thick of that game,

240
00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:27,440
Speaker 7: you can if anybody were able to see our sidelines,

241
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:29,600
Speaker 7: you can just see us look at each other and

242
00:10:29,640 --> 00:10:32,800
Speaker 7: lean out like nobody crossed each other, nobody gave up

243
00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 7: on one another. It was Okay, we got eight minutes

244
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,839
Speaker 7: left and it's close, like we just made it a

245
00:10:37,880 --> 00:10:40,480
Speaker 7: game again. And so it's that was the biggest thing,

246
00:10:40,559 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 7: is like we need one to stop and it's so hard.

247
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: So hard to do that well.

248
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,320
Speaker 3: And last year you guys did something similar, right, not

249
00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 3: only at Philly, at Pittsburgh, a couple of playoff teams

250
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,600
Speaker 3: you knocked off on the road. Here's Kyler Murray. I'm

251
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:55,320
Speaker 3: going into the offseason on a high.

252
00:10:55,200 --> 00:10:58,920
Speaker 8: Note, going into last game offseason. You know, I think

253
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,440
Speaker 8: it's big to feel good your last performance, at least

254
00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,960
Speaker 8: me personally. I would like to go into the all

255
00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,880
Speaker 8: season playing well and have that, you know, on your mind.

256
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 8: That's the last thing you remember, you know. So that's

257
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 8: why I think that's what we want to do, is

258
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 8: go out there and play well, obviously to.

259
00:11:12,320 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 6: Win the game.

260
00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,760
Speaker 3: If you go back to Week seven, this Cardinals defense,

261
00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,360
Speaker 3: ever since Week seven, has allowed the fewest touchdowns in

262
00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 3: the NFL. Let that hang in the air a minute.

263
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 3: Buda was asked about that earlier today. He said, yeah,

264
00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:25,840
Speaker 3: you know, to begin the season, maybe we didn't quite

265
00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,720
Speaker 3: have the run fits correct. You know, we're doing a

266
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 3: better job now of affecting the quarterback. What do you

267
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 3: think has gone into the improvement in the defense as

268
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:35,400
Speaker 3: a whole this second half of the season.

269
00:11:35,559 --> 00:11:37,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's from the top bottom, top to

270
00:11:37,640 --> 00:11:39,920
Speaker 7: the bottom as well. You know JG and Nick Gralis

271
00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,559
Speaker 7: man Nicholas is a dog man. He's he's going to

272
00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,959
Speaker 7: be a great coach for a long, long time man.

273
00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:49,560
Speaker 7: So he's something that he's someone that learns from himself,

274
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 7: you know, and being able to step back and watch

275
00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:56,600
Speaker 7: the game tape and study himself as a play caller, right,

276
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 7: And so that's something that as.

277
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,559
Speaker 6: A player, you'd love to play for somebody like that, Right.

278
00:12:00,559 --> 00:12:03,080
Speaker 7: It's it's something that you have to have humility in

279
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,360
Speaker 7: doing that, you know, and so being able to make

280
00:12:05,400 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 7: adjustments where they're at halftime before the game, during the game, right,

281
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,079
Speaker 7: It's it's it's something that we've all grown together.

282
00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:15,200
Speaker 3: Maybe even season to season. As an example, this last game,

283
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:17,560
Speaker 3: Kien Williams a year ago, he ran for over three

284
00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:19,680
Speaker 3: hundred yards into two games. Both pointed this out on

285
00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:22,360
Speaker 3: the broadcast during the game. Look what you guys did

286
00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:25,320
Speaker 3: against him this year? You guys stuffed him in both games.

287
00:12:25,640 --> 00:12:27,320
Speaker 3: Can you see that as a sign of growth? And

288
00:12:27,320 --> 00:12:29,880
Speaker 3: maybe even the coaches with the game plan right, getting

289
00:12:29,880 --> 00:12:32,360
Speaker 3: ready for Kien Williams from one season to the next.

290
00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,559
Speaker 7: Yeah, for sure, I think that's something that it goes

291
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,920
Speaker 7: into mindset, It goes into respect, understanding that you know,

292
00:12:37,960 --> 00:12:40,280
Speaker 7: he probably he had over three hundred yards and both

293
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 7: times we played him, and so you know, he probably

294
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 7: went into the game thinking that he's probably gonna do

295
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,040
Speaker 7: it again, you know. So that's just goes into the

296
00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,080
Speaker 7: respect aspect of you know, we don't want to be

297
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:52,320
Speaker 7: that defense that people highlight and say, we want to

298
00:12:52,679 --> 00:12:55,720
Speaker 7: get three hundred yards this game, right, like, so it

299
00:12:55,760 --> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 7: goes into respect.

300
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,880
Speaker 3: All right, We're gonna continue just getting rolling. Starting nos

301
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:03,400
Speaker 3: Roy Lopez and the Arizona Cardinals. It is the Big

302
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 3: Red Rage resented by San Stanford and Gilbert Live from

303
00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:09,320
Speaker 3: Trophy and Chandler looking and a Queen Creek rode between

304
00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:16,000
Speaker 3: Price and Dobson moving around in the pocket looking everybody covered.

305
00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:16,800
Speaker 3: Now I want in trouble.

306
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,880
Speaker 4: Second fun of the ball and the Cardinals recovered at

307
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,400
Speaker 4: the twenty nine yard line.

308
00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 3: Roy Lopez gets the sack.

309
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: Roy Lopez with the tomahawk.

310
00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,400
Speaker 4: Baby Stevenson, the tailback, gets the carry, running to the

311
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:33,199
Speaker 4: left and it's gonna be close. I don't think he

312
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 4: got it, and the Cardinals take over on downs at

313
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:37,839
Speaker 4: their four yard line.

314
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:42,120
Speaker 5: Shades of dumpster Dan right there from Roy Lopez.

315
00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:45,559
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, what an awesome job. At the point

316
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:46,640
Speaker 1: of attack.

317
00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 4: Darna looking over the middle, dumps it off complete to

318
00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:52,320
Speaker 4: Jones and the balls out and it's recovered by the Cardinals.

319
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 4: It was punch free and Roy Lopez balls on it.

320
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:58,400
Speaker 1: My lowped right there. Roy Lopez fell on that ball.

321
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:01,360
Speaker 1: Man stuck that this belly button.

322
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 3: There you go, Sean Murphy bunding the force fumble and

323
00:14:07,080 --> 00:14:09,880
Speaker 3: the fumble recovery. I don't know about the belly button. Well,

324
00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:11,760
Speaker 3: you know what, let's just ask Roy Lopez here on

325
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 3: the Big Red Rage presented by santan Ford and Gilbert

326
00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 3: We are santan Ford, Roy, have you or have you

327
00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:18,680
Speaker 3: not ever stuffed a football into your belly?

328
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: Man?

329
00:14:19,880 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: No, he's a big met.

330
00:14:24,960 --> 00:14:27,560
Speaker 3: What percentage of plays as a nose tackle for those

331
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,680
Speaker 3: of them, and that's ninety nine point nine percent of

332
00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 3: the world who's never played nose tackle in a football game.

333
00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,080
Speaker 3: How would you describe your job? But how often you

334
00:14:36,120 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 3: get double teamed?

335
00:14:37,200 --> 00:14:37,440
Speaker 6: Uh?

336
00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:40,280
Speaker 3: Just how dirty and filthy and physical does it get

337
00:14:40,360 --> 00:14:42,280
Speaker 3: down there at the epicenter of humanity.

338
00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:45,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's uh, it's the real deal man. That's uh.

339
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:48,400
Speaker 7: When people think, you know, football banging and everything like that,

340
00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 7: that's that's the noseguard position. You know, everything happens so fast.

341
00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 7: You're the first person may contact every single play, you know,

342
00:14:55,000 --> 00:14:58,960
Speaker 7: so you're getting double team, you're getting washed down the

343
00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:00,920
Speaker 7: line of scrim as you to be able to you know,

344
00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:03,960
Speaker 7: anchor the point of contact. And it's something that you know,

345
00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,240
Speaker 7: I love to do because you know, not a lot

346
00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,880
Speaker 7: of guys get to go against the same guy.

347
00:15:07,720 --> 00:15:08,600
Speaker 6: For sixty minutes.

348
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,920
Speaker 7: Monoi mono, right, And it's something that it comes down

349
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:14,200
Speaker 7: to off season training, comes down the mindset. It comes

350
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 7: down to if you really want it or not. You know,

351
00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:19,920
Speaker 7: so anything between the White Lions for sixty minutes, it's on.

352
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 5: You know, I played with many noseguards and they would

353
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:27,160
Speaker 5: say often that it's the most paranoid position on the field.

354
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,920
Speaker 5: And the reason being is because typically you line up

355
00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 5: over the center. Of course, if you are playing nose tackle,

356
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:35,320
Speaker 5: you have the center, you have the right guard, and

357
00:15:35,360 --> 00:15:38,160
Speaker 5: you have the left guard, and you never know which

358
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,000
Speaker 5: way it's actually gonna come from.

359
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:42,320
Speaker 1: Do you feel that, Roy, would you agree with that?

360
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm in I'm in the whole little world in

361
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,560
Speaker 7: there in that little box, you know, like there's so

362
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:49,200
Speaker 7: much a football you guys, you know, are watching from

363
00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 7: from from the stands or up top, and I got

364
00:15:52,680 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 7: my own little center to guards, right. It's it's something

365
00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:57,840
Speaker 7: that you know, I I love it. I appreciate it,

366
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,840
Speaker 7: even you know, I'm taking a double team. I'm probably

367
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:02,320
Speaker 7: not make the tackle. But you got to find loving

368
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 7: the little things when he comes to nosegar world, you know,

369
00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 7: so my family has gotten to a joint enjoy the

370
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:08,760
Speaker 7: enjoy the nose guard life.

371
00:16:08,880 --> 00:16:10,080
Speaker 6: You know, since I've been the lakes.

372
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 5: You know what else is coming back in the NFL.

373
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,080
Speaker 5: I just thought I've seen us do it. As a

374
00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 5: matter of fact, the wham block.

375
00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, oh yeah, man, you know what I'm talking about.

376
00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:22,440
Speaker 5: That center is going to look at that nose tackle,

377
00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:24,960
Speaker 5: set him up, and then go away from the wham

378
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:28,280
Speaker 5: and here comes the tight end. Here's a full back.

379
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,960
Speaker 5: Yeah literally, man.

380
00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 3: I want to know how much your heavyweight wrestling career

381
00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,560
Speaker 3: has served you well at the position. But first you

382
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 3: spoke of the offseason. Here's Nick Rolis, your defensive coordinator.

383
00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 3: This is in training camp right going into this season.

384
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 3: On how he was challenging you to lead more.

385
00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:48,560
Speaker 9: I challenged Roy to become a leader on his defense,

386
00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:50,280
Speaker 9: and I think he's done a great job of that.

387
00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 9: He does a phenomenal job for us. In the run game.

388
00:16:53,520 --> 00:16:56,120
Speaker 9: You want to talk about anchoring a double team, He's

389
00:16:56,160 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 9: hard to move in there, and then when he gets

390
00:16:58,080 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 9: his shot to go one on one, he'll get knocked back.

391
00:17:00,240 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 9: And he does a good job pushing the pocket on

392
00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:02,720
Speaker 9: pass downs.

393
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:05,440
Speaker 3: Your reaction that and and how is this season gone

394
00:17:05,480 --> 00:17:06,440
Speaker 3: in your estimation?

395
00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:09,439
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think that's something that if you watch the

396
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:12,200
Speaker 7: tape or watch games, you know, that's what he says.

397
00:17:12,240 --> 00:17:14,359
Speaker 7: As far as taking the double team, inching, anchoring the

398
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,760
Speaker 7: double team, and and the moment, you know, I get

399
00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:18,560
Speaker 7: on one on one, I lick my chops, right, It's

400
00:17:18,600 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 7: it's something that I wait sixty minutes for one on one,

401
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:25,240
Speaker 7: you know. So, and as far as the leader, I

402
00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 7: think that just goes into you know, being who I am.

403
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:29,919
Speaker 7: You know, at the end of the day. Thankfully I

404
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,440
Speaker 7: was growing I grew up with a family that they're

405
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 7: all leaders.

406
00:17:33,000 --> 00:17:33,720
Speaker 6: In their workplace.

407
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:35,840
Speaker 7: And you know, so it's signed kind of just being

408
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 7: second nature of being able to have a voice and

409
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:41,240
Speaker 7: and but also it comes through actions. You know, it

410
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,040
Speaker 7: comes through Uh you get your reputation through your reps,

411
00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:46,640
Speaker 7: right and and so being able to show up every

412
00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:50,359
Speaker 7: single day early do the little things pop out on

413
00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:54,240
Speaker 7: tape with just effort and UH want to you know,

414
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,080
Speaker 7: I think that's something that when leading a room goes

415
00:17:58,119 --> 00:17:58,600
Speaker 7: a long way.

416
00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 5: You know, Roy, a football player is body, soul, in spirit,

417
00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 5: all three. You've got to have all three to play

418
00:18:06,600 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 5: the game correctly. So tell me what a nose tackle

419
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:13,760
Speaker 5: needs in terms of body, soul, in spirit in order

420
00:18:13,840 --> 00:18:16,240
Speaker 5: to be a good nose tackle right in the NFL.

421
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:19,919
Speaker 7: I think the body I kind of don't fit the

422
00:18:19,960 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 7: normal nose guard description.

423
00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:23,639
Speaker 6: Why do you say that most nose guards are about

424
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:27,880
Speaker 6: six five three twenty three thirty Yeah, and I'm not. Okay,

425
00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 6: so I'm.

426
00:18:29,920 --> 00:18:32,159
Speaker 7: But the biggest thing for me, which is nice, is

427
00:18:32,240 --> 00:18:36,200
Speaker 7: I'm a little shorter, so I get the embedded pad level.

428
00:18:36,240 --> 00:18:37,680
Speaker 7: I think that's the biggest thing as far as a

429
00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 7: nose guard is pad level, you know, getting your screws

430
00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:41,560
Speaker 7: underneath their screws.

431
00:18:41,240 --> 00:18:42,800
Speaker 6: Low Man wins. Low Man wins.

432
00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,240
Speaker 7: You hear that, you know, from the moment you start football,

433
00:18:45,320 --> 00:18:48,160
Speaker 7: you know, so thankfully I'm usually lower than everybody.

434
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,159
Speaker 1: And you got a really good feet too, don't you.

435
00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 7: I think that, Yeah goes back to me growing up

436
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,199
Speaker 7: around football, you know, and I'd get bored and just

437
00:18:55,240 --> 00:18:59,040
Speaker 7: hop on the juiliy ladder. And also my trainer, you know,

438
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 7: is he's my cousin, but he's pretty mean to me,

439
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:03,680
Speaker 7: so so.

440
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:05,760
Speaker 6: He'll make fun of me and say I got slow feet?

441
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,920
Speaker 1: What is your feet? What is your weight at? I

442
00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: should say right.

443
00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,760
Speaker 7: Now, I range from three h five to three ten okay,

444
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 7: so throughout the season that's kind of where I go.

445
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 6: Usually play around three oh eight.

446
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 5: Okay, I like it about three twenty.

447
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,560
Speaker 3: That makes won't feel better about himself considering all the

448
00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:25,080
Speaker 3: weight he's put it on the holiday season.

449
00:19:25,119 --> 00:19:25,960
Speaker 1: That's why.

450
00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:27,680
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's big boy weight right there.

451
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,919
Speaker 3: So to what degree does your wrestling background serve you

452
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,199
Speaker 3: well in the trenches, because for those who don't know,

453
00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,800
Speaker 3: you won two state titles in high school? Is a

454
00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:39,239
Speaker 3: heavyweight champion? I mean, how about that? And you let

455
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,520
Speaker 3: it all four years? So how often is that coming

456
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 3: to play? In this job.

457
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,399
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think you know, some people reference it all

458
00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,399
Speaker 7: the time when watching my tape. Is it looks like

459
00:19:47,440 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 7: I'm wrestling right because everything is about inside hand placement,

460
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,280
Speaker 7: pad level low man wins. The moment you lean too much,

461
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:57,439
Speaker 7: I'm gonna snatch you right in. Being able to attack

462
00:19:57,520 --> 00:20:00,320
Speaker 7: one arm at a time is the biggest saying. I

463
00:20:00,400 --> 00:20:02,800
Speaker 7: do it in off season training, whether it's boxing or wrestling.

464
00:20:04,119 --> 00:20:04,280
Speaker 6: You know.

465
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:07,720
Speaker 7: Thankfully, my THEO also does a self defense for the

466
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 7: police academy, so I'm able to go in there and

467
00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:13,399
Speaker 7: train with him, roll around with him. So it's all around.

468
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:15,640
Speaker 7: It's a It's changed my life for sure. I love

469
00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 7: the game of wrestling.

470
00:20:16,800 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: So you grew up here and you went to Mesquite

471
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:20,679
Speaker 1: High School.

472
00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 6: I went to two high schools. Went to Marco's Denisa.

473
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 6: I transferred to Mesquite.

474
00:20:24,080 --> 00:20:27,840
Speaker 1: Okay, talk to me a little bit. Why did you transfer? Well,

475
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:28,880
Speaker 1: what's going on with that?

476
00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, my dad was the head coach of Marco's Denisa.

477
00:20:31,280 --> 00:20:34,320
Speaker 7: Okay, So then after my sophomore year he resigned, so

478
00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 7: we kind of, uh, it was kind of crazy. We

479
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 7: went on to it was like we were doing college visits,

480
00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:42,840
Speaker 7: man to bunts of schools and seeing where we're gonna go.

481
00:20:42,960 --> 00:20:45,400
Speaker 7: And you know, ultimately we chose Mesquite to play both

482
00:20:45,400 --> 00:20:47,880
Speaker 7: ways in high school and uh, they had a good

483
00:20:47,880 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 7: wrestling program, you know, so we wanted to you know,

484
00:20:49,960 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 7: I wanted to chase the dream of winning more state

485
00:20:52,359 --> 00:20:53,120
Speaker 7: titles than my dad.

486
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:53,600
Speaker 6: Wow.

487
00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,960
Speaker 7: So thankfully I was able to do that, you know. So,

488
00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 7: but that was the biggest thing was for me. I

489
00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 7: want to I wanted to wrestle, and I wanted to

490
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:01,959
Speaker 7: play both ways.

491
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:04,680
Speaker 3: What's amazing too, is in the course of basically two years,

492
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,840
Speaker 3: you went from New Mexico State to u of A

493
00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 3: to the NFL. What was that like that whole two

494
00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,679
Speaker 3: years and think about the competition, right, and how it

495
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 3: accelerated from New Mexico State and all of a sudden

496
00:21:15,320 --> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 3: you're in Houston, Texan and you're playing an NFL games

497
00:21:17,520 --> 00:21:18,200
Speaker 3: your rookie.

498
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 6: Year, right.

499
00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,520
Speaker 7: I think going to New Mexico State, it kind of

500
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:25,000
Speaker 7: comes full circle of me standing up here and saying

501
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,919
Speaker 7: that the biggest thing that this team fights for is

502
00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,560
Speaker 7: respect and there's a reason why we're all on this team.

503
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,600
Speaker 7: And because you know, a guy like me goes to

504
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 7: New Mexico State, you know, I feel like I'm a

505
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 7: great player, you know, So you got to fight for

506
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 7: respect every single down, you know, in some games when

507
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 7: at New Mexico State, you're down fifty to six, right

508
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:45,680
Speaker 7: and so, and I'm still in there in the fourth

509
00:21:45,720 --> 00:21:49,320
Speaker 7: quarter fighting for respect, you know. So it taught me

510
00:21:49,359 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 7: a lot. It taught me a lot to come from

511
00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,320
Speaker 7: there and then ended up transferring being able to come

512
00:21:53,320 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 7: home and play for U of A, you know, and

513
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:59,240
Speaker 7: that was amazing changed my life, and I made the

514
00:21:59,280 --> 00:22:01,720
Speaker 7: decision to leave from U of A. Only went there

515
00:22:01,720 --> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 7: one year, and there I was getting drafted in front

516
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,480
Speaker 7: of my whole family. It was one of the best

517
00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,280
Speaker 7: days of my life. But it was it was a

518
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,480
Speaker 7: humbling moment for sure, once all the phone calls started

519
00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 7: hanging in. And because I never had that right, I

520
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:18,560
Speaker 7: never was the big recruit, star guy. And so when

521
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:20,399
Speaker 7: I got to Houston, it was the same thing of

522
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 7: having to earn respect. And I come here as a

523
00:22:23,080 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 7: guy that just got injured. Wave coming off an injury,

524
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:28,199
Speaker 7: nobody really knows who I am, and they kind of

525
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 7: just saw me on tape before. And now it's like

526
00:22:31,320 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 7: that feeling again of being the new kid at new

527
00:22:33,640 --> 00:22:36,240
Speaker 7: school and the new kid on the team of you know,

528
00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 7: you got to prove yourself every single day, you know,

529
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 7: and I think that's something that never leaves you as

530
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:41,440
Speaker 7: long as you're in the league.

531
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 5: You know, what's amazing about your story as well. I

532
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,480
Speaker 5: grew up in Orchard Park, New York, where the Buffalo

533
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:49,400
Speaker 5: Bills played, right They play right there, and I grew

534
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,639
Speaker 5: up there, born and raised there, and I always wondered

535
00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:55,560
Speaker 5: what that would be like to actually go and play,

536
00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,680
Speaker 5: to play for the Buffalo Bills in I never had

537
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,439
Speaker 5: that opportunity to do it, and loved my time of

538
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 5: course with a Cardinals organization for seven years. But talk

539
00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:09,320
Speaker 5: to me about what it's like to actually play here. Yeah,

540
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:13,639
Speaker 5: where you grew up with your family, and there seems

541
00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:16,000
Speaker 5: like there could be a lot of distractions, and at

542
00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,320
Speaker 5: the same time, it feels like there could be a

543
00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 5: lot of good things that come from that.

544
00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:22,959
Speaker 7: And so I'll start off with the you know, as

545
00:23:23,000 --> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 7: far as distraction goes everything that I do. My family,

546
00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,679
Speaker 7: you know, thankfully, is very understanding and they allowed me

547
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:34,560
Speaker 7: to to focus on my career because they've been through

548
00:23:34,600 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 7: the whole part.

549
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:35,919
Speaker 6: You know with me.

550
00:23:37,080 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 7: Yeah, they know my they know my my daily routine

551
00:23:40,720 --> 00:23:43,800
Speaker 7: and so they don't ever really budge and they're kind

552
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:44,719
Speaker 7: of really patient with me.

553
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 6: If I can go to things, I can go to things.

554
00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:48,760
Speaker 7: But I think the coolest thing for me playing here was,

555
00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 7: you know, being able to throw my youth camps in

556
00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:55,360
Speaker 7: the off season and say an Arizona Cardinal right, and

557
00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 7: for the kids to see, oh, he's from here any

558
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,000
Speaker 7: place record like it's it's insane to say out loud.

559
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:06,720
Speaker 7: And then but also doing my foundation events as far

560
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:10,160
Speaker 7: as being able to meet people throughout the state and

561
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:13,040
Speaker 7: say I'm also from here. You know, the kid's eyes

562
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:16,120
Speaker 7: or or or men's eyes and women's eyes is kind

563
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:17,760
Speaker 7: of light up the moment I say it and tell.

564
00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:18,320
Speaker 6: Them where I'm from.

565
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 7: And uh, I think that's been the coolest thing, you know,

566
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,400
Speaker 7: playing here and the Arizona across your chest and means

567
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:26,680
Speaker 7: something to me, you know, and I got it tattooed

568
00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:30,159
Speaker 7: on me, and uh, it's it's truly a blessing that

569
00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:31,639
Speaker 7: I know. Not a lot of people get to do

570
00:24:31,920 --> 00:24:35,480
Speaker 7: that players in the NFL. So I played here as

571
00:24:35,520 --> 00:24:39,280
Speaker 7: an away team. Houston played here my rookie year and

572
00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,240
Speaker 7: we cleared over one hundred people.

573
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:43,679
Speaker 6: In that game. It was. It was insane, you know,

574
00:24:43,800 --> 00:24:48,360
Speaker 6: so speaking of right right, right.

575
00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 7: So it's been, uh, it's been a ride, man, and thankfully,

576
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,000
Speaker 7: you know, God blessed me to be able to play

577
00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,760

00:26:58,000 --> 00:26:59,040
Speaker 7: this year was Josh Allen.

629
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:03,639
Speaker 3: Yes, indeed, Josh Allen's a big dude, was it? I

630
00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,040
Speaker 3: mean there's a degree of difficulty in getting him to

631
00:27:06,040 --> 00:27:06,800
Speaker 3: the ground, isn't there?

632
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:10,359
Speaker 7: Right after the play, you know, celebrated everything that uh

633
00:27:10,600 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 7: my mom, my dad and my thee were there, and

634
00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,119
Speaker 7: I kind of looked up at the stands.

635
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:16,520
Speaker 6: And they're all crying, right.

636
00:27:16,440 --> 00:27:20,760
Speaker 7: Just just completely bawling their eyes out right, and so.

637
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,679
Speaker 6: And I look at um, like what just happened? And

638
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,119
Speaker 6: they're like, I don't know, but I don't know.

639
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,119
Speaker 7: And so I'm just like I'm like pacing back on

640
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:31,720
Speaker 7: the sideline, trying to just lock in and remember that

641
00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 7: I got to play a scoop block coming up, but

642
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:35,320
Speaker 7: you know, I got a couple.

643
00:27:35,119 --> 00:27:36,400
Speaker 6: Of double teams come my way.

644
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:38,479
Speaker 7: So I think that was the biggest thing, was just

645
00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:42,119
Speaker 7: being able to enjoy the quick ten seconds of it

646
00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 7: and then all right, like it's it's we're still in it.

647
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:44,600
Speaker 6: Man.

648
00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,959
Speaker 7: That was the first quarter, right, so you say out

649
00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:51,520
Speaker 7: another three quarters to go? So so your dad, he

650
00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:52,800
Speaker 7: and I. This guy is a coach.

651
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 5: This guy knows what he's talking about and regarded the

652
00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:56,000
Speaker 5: game of football.

653
00:27:56,520 --> 00:27:59,520
Speaker 1: Does he coach you? Does he say, boy, you gotta

654
00:27:59,600 --> 00:27:59,840
Speaker 1: do this?

655
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:00,320
Speaker 6: Yeah.

656
00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,280
Speaker 7: I think a lot of things that they do say

657
00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:05,600
Speaker 7: in between him and my theos and my grandpa is

658
00:28:05,640 --> 00:28:10,920
Speaker 7: everything that they say is more pointers right, being able

659
00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:14,600
Speaker 7: to be there for me mentally right and whether that's

660
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,679
Speaker 7: just breathe, calm down, next play, if it was a

661
00:28:17,680 --> 00:28:19,520
Speaker 7: good play or a bad play right, and being able

662
00:28:19,560 --> 00:28:21,280
Speaker 7: to a pad level, keep.

663
00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 6: Your feet hot, keep right.

664
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:24,280
Speaker 1: I suppose.

665
00:28:25,119 --> 00:28:26,280
Speaker 6: So I think that's the biggest thing.

666
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,800
Speaker 7: And then the off season we get to it and uh,

667
00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,320
Speaker 7: and that's when we really lock in on.

668
00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,119
Speaker 6: You know, being harsh on me. You know, but I

669

699
00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:04,040
Speaker 3: guest here on the Big Show and the I mean,

700
00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 3: think about Buddha Baker number two in the NFL and

701
00:30:08,080 --> 00:30:12,960
Speaker 3: tackles the top twenties, like nineteen linebackers and Buddha, right,

702
00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,000
Speaker 3: and then you got Trey McBride who's had three he

703
00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,360
Speaker 3: count him three twelve catch games. Nobody's done that in

704
00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 3: NFL history in one season. If he has another one,

705
00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,720

706
00:30:22,800 --> 00:30:25,840

708
00:30:28,640 --> 00:30:31,200
Speaker 3: put into perspective what you've been able to see out

709
00:30:31,240 --> 00:30:32,480
Speaker 3: of those two guys this year.

710
00:30:32,720 --> 00:30:35,040
Speaker 7: Yeah, I think, you know, starting with Buddha, you know,

711
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 7: he's he's the greatest player I ever played with. Man,

712
00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,640
Speaker 7: he's every single day he literally doesn't change, you know,

713
00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,080
Speaker 7: And so as a fan, trust me, you guys know

714

717
00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,200
Speaker 7: watch him on tape the way he plays like I

718
00:30:57,240 --> 00:30:59,360
Speaker 7: always say, he has that clip from a couple of

719
00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:02,960
Speaker 7: years ago and against Seattle or he's like the guy

720
00:31:03,040 --> 00:31:04,680
Speaker 7: asked him, like, how'd you make that play? And he

721
00:31:04,800 --> 00:31:09,520
Speaker 7: was like, fearless, fearless right, Like yeah, it's it's exactly

722
00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:11,880
Speaker 7: what he's thinking. He's fearless man.

723
00:31:11,960 --> 00:31:13,960
Speaker 6: He's Uh. It's been a blessing to be able to

724
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,400
Speaker 6: play with him because I've got to see him play

725
00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:16,840
Speaker 6: on TV.

726
00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,680
Speaker 3: You know, so yeah, when you're young, I'm sure he

727
00:31:19,760 --> 00:31:21,800
Speaker 3: loves hearing that. When you were younger, used to watch.

728
00:31:21,640 --> 00:31:23,320
Speaker 1: Him right and go on to college.

729

Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, he came up to be after you heard that,

730
00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:28,040
Speaker 7: he started dying laughing. He was like, hey, man, you'll

731
00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:29,720
Speaker 7: be saying that, you know, but it was funny.

732
00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,600
Speaker 6: It's uh. And then to go on the tray that

733
00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,680
Speaker 6: is easy. The most exciting tight end to watch in

734
00:31:34,720 --> 00:31:35,959
Speaker 6: the league. He's uh.

735
00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 7: Every time he touches the wall, you think he's gonna

736
00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:41,000
Speaker 7: do something right, like yeah, and then whether it's Hurtle,

737
00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,840
Speaker 7: somebody run somebody over. But he's a he's a he's

738
00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:48,360
Speaker 7: a fun guy to watch. He's he's amazing. And to

739
00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 7: know that this is your three for him, right, that's yes.

740
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:54,000
Speaker 7: Could you imagine what he's gonna do the next ten

741
00:31:54,320 --> 00:31:56,840
Speaker 7: fifteen years forever long, he's gonna play like he's gonna

742
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,880
Speaker 7: be insane, you know, And then to say he's already

743
00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,640
Speaker 7: on pace or trying to beat the tight end record,

744
00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,000
Speaker 7: like who knows how many tight end records he's gonna

745
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:05,520
Speaker 7: go for, you know.

746
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 5: So yeah, for me, you know, Trey McBride is a

747
00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,720
Speaker 5: guy that I continue to want to see him develop

748
00:32:11,800 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 5: as a blocker at the point of attack, and he's

749
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 5: done a great job of that. Now, we had a

750
00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:18,160
Speaker 5: couple of games where there was a little bit of

751
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:20,760
Speaker 5: a speed bump in there, and and Trey would be

752
00:32:20,800 --> 00:32:22,440
Speaker 5: the first guy to admit that.

753
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:24,680
Speaker 6: But that's what I love about the kid.

754
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,440
Speaker 1: He wants to be good.

755
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,240
Speaker 5: He wants to be a true tight end, a true

756
00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:32,400
Speaker 5: stud tight end, and that's the reason why. So he's

757
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 5: developed to speak on that.

758
00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,840
Speaker 7: So on the plane rides me and him, or we

759
00:32:36,920 --> 00:32:38,960
Speaker 7: sit right next to each other on the playing rights

760
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:40,960
Speaker 7: for away games, and so after the game, you know,

761
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 7: I'll sit there and watch the defensive tape, and he

762
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:44,080
Speaker 7: SAIDs here, what's offense tape?

763
00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:47,520
Speaker 6: You know, And and we watched all his blocking tapes.

764
00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:52,520
Speaker 7: He's like, ah, getting on that, or he's like, what's

765
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 7: like he loves it, man, he loves the game of football.

766
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,920
Speaker 7: And then I always tell people, when you're around a

767
00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:01,000
Speaker 7: bunch of people that love the game of football, you're

768
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 7: able to thrive, right. But if you're that person that

769
00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:05,720
Speaker 7: doesn't love football around everybody that loves football, you'll stick

770
00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:09,600
Speaker 7: out like a sore throw man, because because oh yeah,

771
00:33:09,720 --> 00:33:11,960
Speaker 7: he loves it, man, he loves football through and through.

772
00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:14,600
Speaker 7: So just being able to talk about him, Buddha and

773
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,600
Speaker 7: everybody else and on that, on that.

774
00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 5: Note right there, when I think of Buddha Baker and

775
00:33:19,320 --> 00:33:22,080
Speaker 5: you watch him on tape, it is truly incredible to

776
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:28,720
Speaker 5: see him man play fearlessly on every play, play after

777
00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:34,000
Speaker 5: play after play. It's it really, And he's the smallest

778
00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:39,280
Speaker 5: guy on the field. He doesn't play after play after play.

779
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,320
Speaker 7: You see all the pictures and stuff of me playing,

780
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:44,520
Speaker 7: or I'm going through all my pictures and you can

781
00:33:44,560 --> 00:33:47,840
Speaker 7: see Buddha just back there just like tiny man, but

782
00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,600
Speaker 7: like it looks like he's just ready to pounce.

783
00:33:50,720 --> 00:33:51,600
Speaker 6: Man, he's a beast.

784
00:33:51,840 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 5: But tell people what that's like to watch a guy

785
00:33:55,760 --> 00:33:59,320
Speaker 5: play like that when he's the smallest guy on the field.

786
00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 7: Right, you're able to really back to practice though, you're

787
00:34:01,280 --> 00:34:03,240
Speaker 7: able to relay it back to OTA's and then you

788
00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,720
Speaker 7: go on to training camp and he's he's the one

789
00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,600
Speaker 7: flying around on tape and you understand why this is

790
00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:10,680
Speaker 7: the seventh Pro Bowl. You know he's selected to you

791
00:34:10,800 --> 00:34:13,239
Speaker 7: understand why he's a there's nobody like him.

792
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,360
Speaker 6: Man. He's uh, he's truly one of the great greatest

793
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:17,239
Speaker 6: safeties've ever played.

794
00:34:17,239 --> 00:34:20,000
Speaker 3: Again, well, it's a great segue because here's Buddha Baker today.

795
00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,279
Speaker 3: I'm being named to his seventh Pro Bowl.

796
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,239
Speaker 11: It's just, you know, head down, take one day at

797
00:34:25,239 --> 00:34:28,160
Speaker 11: a time. That's how I truly feel. And these accolades

798
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,040
Speaker 11: are definitely a blessing. And some people don't make a

799
00:34:31,080 --> 00:34:33,160
Speaker 11: Pro Bowl, you know, one time in their career. So

800
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,080
Speaker 11: for me to get seven, that's definitely special. And you know,

801
00:34:37,120 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 11: I'm gonna continue to try to stay consistent, continue to

802
00:34:40,080 --> 00:34:42,399
Speaker 11: be the best teammate I can be, to of course

803
00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:44,080
Speaker 11: the best player I can be on the field, and

804
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:46,240
Speaker 11: you know, ultimately get to winning games.

805
00:34:46,600 --> 00:34:49,200
Speaker 3: And you talked about Nick rawlis right in the adjustments

806
00:34:49,239 --> 00:34:51,800
Speaker 3: and how this defense is of all, I probably couldn't

807
00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,800
Speaker 3: explain it. I couldn't sit here with the ex's and

808
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:55,840
Speaker 3: o's and break it down. Maybe I'll leave that, you know,

809
00:34:55,960 --> 00:34:58,440
Speaker 3: to your dad and your uncle. But they have unlocked

810
00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 3: Buddha Baker and your two of this ski, have they not?

811
00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:01,239
Speaker 1: For sure?

812
00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,600
Speaker 3: There's no I mean it used to be teams would

813
00:35:03,640 --> 00:35:05,600
Speaker 3: run to the opposite side or run away from him

814
00:35:05,640 --> 00:35:08,120
Speaker 3: throw it. But no, there is no escaping Budda Baker

815
00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:08,440
Speaker 3: this year.

816
00:35:08,600 --> 00:35:10,239
Speaker 7: I think the biggest thing is, you know, if you're

817
00:35:10,239 --> 00:35:12,120
Speaker 7: a pitcher, you're gonna throw your best pitch right, and

818
00:35:12,239 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 7: so you might as well just send that bullet flying.

819
00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:15,600
Speaker 6: Every single play, you know.

820
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,680
Speaker 7: So, Uh, he's ready to go whenever you call his number,

821
00:35:18,760 --> 00:35:20,960
Speaker 7: you know, So it doesn't matter if you call it once, twice,

822
00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:22,160
Speaker 7: thirty times a game.

823
00:35:22,280 --> 00:35:25,480
Speaker 6: He's shooting it right. So he's Uh, he's awesome.

824
00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,680
Speaker 3: By the way, we had Trey McBride on not too

825
00:35:27,760 --> 00:35:31,759
Speaker 3: long ago, and he dubbed Wolf the Quality Control run

826
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:35,440
Speaker 3: game blocking Coordinator is what he called Wolf, because we'll

827
00:35:35,480 --> 00:35:38,239
Speaker 3: spend the majority of the show talking about his run block, right, Trey,

828
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:39,440
Speaker 3: He's like, come on, man, let's you know.

829
00:35:40,000 --> 00:35:42,920
Speaker 5: I'm glad you did that, but you know what I mean, honestly, Roy,

830
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 5: I want this guy to be a true stud tight end,

831
00:35:45,440 --> 00:35:48,000
Speaker 5: because if you can go eleven personnel in the NFL,

832
00:35:48,280 --> 00:35:52,120
Speaker 5: one back, one tight end, three wide receivers in rundown

833
00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,080
Speaker 5: situation first and ten second and one to six, if

834
00:35:55,120 --> 00:35:57,560
Speaker 5: you can go ahead and be balanced running the ball

835
00:35:57,880 --> 00:36:00,880
Speaker 5: and throwing it out of that personnel group, oh my goodness.

836
00:36:01,000 --> 00:36:03,839
Speaker 5: It is such an advantage. It's one of the huge

837
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 5: advantages that a lot of teams have when they've got

838
00:36:07,120 --> 00:36:10,000
Speaker 5: that true stud tight end who can be a blocker

839
00:36:10,080 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 5: at the point of attack and yet still produce in

840
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:13,640
Speaker 5: the past.

841
00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:17,319
Speaker 7: Especially especially with a back like James Connor. So that's

842
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,279
Speaker 7: that's another thing is is that's another dog right there.

843
00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 3: Well, the team you're playing on Sunday, right, George Kittle,

844
00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:25,919
Speaker 3: they've been able to do that for years.

845
00:36:26,000 --> 00:36:29,439
Speaker 7: Correct, You're you're able to hide your you know, past

846
00:36:29,520 --> 00:36:32,399
Speaker 7: run keys when you're tight end can catch in and block.

847
00:36:32,520 --> 00:36:33,759
Speaker 6: So that's the biggest thing here.

848
00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:37,200
Speaker 3: You go, Trey mcplay, Trey Mcpro Bowl now being named

849
00:36:37,239 --> 00:36:38,000
Speaker 3: to his first Pro.

850
00:36:38,080 --> 00:36:40,440
Speaker 12: Bowl something you dream about as a little kid. You know,

851
00:36:40,560 --> 00:36:42,000
Speaker 12: obviously you want to make it to the pros and

852
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:43,920
Speaker 12: then you want to be the best. This is just

853
00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,160
Speaker 12: one step, you know, into that right direction. This is

854
00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:48,960
Speaker 12: a huge honor for me. Proud just to bring this

855
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,320
Speaker 12: back home where I'm from. Just a huge honor for

856
00:36:52,440 --> 00:36:55,400
Speaker 12: not only me, my community, my family, and obviously this

857
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:58,239
Speaker 12: organization you know, hasn't been done by a tight end

858
00:36:58,280 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 12: in a very long time. So this is it's a

859
00:37:00,239 --> 00:37:02,360
Speaker 12: huge on it for not only me, but this organization

860
00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:03,000
Speaker 12: and everybody.

861
00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 3: I mean, he's got the best hands on the team.

862
00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:07,320
Speaker 3: He's a tight end, he really does. I mean, he

863
00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 3: had this stretch of three games in a row with

864
00:37:08,920 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 3: a hurdle and then on the sideline, he's really hard

865
00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 3: on himself, Like he could catch ten out of eleven

866
00:37:15,120 --> 00:37:17,479
Speaker 3: and he is seething he didn't get that eleventh catch.

867
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:19,520
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, he's really competitive his name.

868
00:37:19,600 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think that's you know, being a great player.

869
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:22,640
Speaker 6: That's part of it, you know.

870
00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:25,920
Speaker 7: And you look at the you know, the leaders on

871
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:28,600
Speaker 7: our team, they're the hardest on themselves man and truthfully,

872
00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,640
Speaker 7: and so it's it's great to see him, you know,

873
00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,279
Speaker 7: in year three, because you know down the road, you know,

874
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:35,800
Speaker 7: I'll be able to get to watch him and be

875
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:38,200
Speaker 7: like I leave, man, this guy's still doing it, you know.

876
00:37:38,360 --> 00:37:40,560
Speaker 7: So because I understand how much he loves the game

877
00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:42,840
Speaker 7: of football, how much he puts into it, he bleeds

878
00:37:42,880 --> 00:37:45,440
Speaker 7: for it, and so it's a blessing to watch him.

879
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 1: I think you had an excellent year this year.

880
00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:48,080
Speaker 6: Thank you.

881
00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,280
Speaker 1: How how do you feel about your season?

882
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think thankfully.

883
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 7: You know, I know who I am, I know what

884
00:37:55,520 --> 00:37:58,680
Speaker 7: I bring to the team, and uh, you know, every

885
00:37:58,719 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 7: single week I kind of tell my family I felt

886
00:38:00,840 --> 00:38:02,759
Speaker 7: like I played great, you know So I think that's

887
00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:03,560
Speaker 7: the biggest thing is.

888
00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:07,560
Speaker 6: Being happy the way I played. I enjoy it.

889
00:38:07,920 --> 00:38:12,279
Speaker 7: I get double teamed a lot, and I live for those, man.

890
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,279
Speaker 7: I live for the double teams, being able to split it,

891
00:38:14,360 --> 00:38:16,239
Speaker 7: being able to anchor it, and like I said, when

892
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:18,279
Speaker 7: I get a single block, I lick my chops, you know. So,

893
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,000
Speaker 7: I think the film will speak for itself. And I'm

894
00:38:24,360 --> 00:38:25,399
Speaker 7: happy with what I've done the season.

895
00:38:25,520 --> 00:38:27,360
Speaker 1: And you take your face and turn it into a

896
00:38:27,440 --> 00:38:29,680
Speaker 1: flat shovel, which I happened to.

897
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:31,359
Speaker 6: Yeah. Hey.

Speaker 1: First and ten.

903
00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,080
Speaker 4: I'm the Sanfred twenty four snapped a purty standing in

904
00:38:51,160 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 4: the bucket all day to throw out passes, tipped and

905
00:38:54,680 --> 00:38:58,799
Speaker 4: it's intercepted. It was tipped by Lopez and picked off

906
00:38:58,880 --> 00:39:02,160
Speaker 4: by mac Wilson at the twenty five. The Cardinals get

907
00:39:02,200 --> 00:39:04,920
Speaker 4: a huge takeaway early in the third Rock.

908
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:07,920
Speaker 5: Perty in the pocket working to his left, comes back

909
00:39:08,000 --> 00:39:11,800
Speaker 5: to his right, throws the ball. It's batted into the

910
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:17,279
Speaker 5: air by Roy Lopez and mac Wilson Senior comes.

911
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:18,040
Speaker 1: Down with the ball.

912
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:22,320
Speaker 3: When you tip it and another guy gets a takeaway,

913
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,920
Speaker 3: does like he owe you something of any sort? How

914
00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 3: does that work?

915
00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:28,600
Speaker 7: Just a high five, That's all I asked. But no,

916
00:39:28,760 --> 00:39:31,759
Speaker 7: it's it's something that we get to laugh and share

917
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,879
Speaker 7: the moment about. But yeah, it was a great play

918
00:39:33,960 --> 00:39:34,359
Speaker 7: by mac.

919
00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:34,839
Speaker 6: Oh.

920
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,959
Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know what, that was a great second

921
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,719
Speaker 3: half by the Cardinals defense. They had four possessions, three

922
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:42,400
Speaker 3: takeaways by the Cardinals in a turnover on downs and

923
00:39:42,480 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 3: you guys came from thirteen down and a half ten

924
00:39:44,840 --> 00:39:47,080
Speaker 3: down to start the fourth quarter got out of there

925
00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:48,800
Speaker 3: with that one point win. It was also about a

926
00:39:48,840 --> 00:39:51,080
Speaker 3: buck eleven on that field. I mean that was hotter

927
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:53,120
Speaker 3: than Arizona. Yeah, you baye that you.

928
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:55,600
Speaker 7: Know, Like I keep saying, from the top to the bottom, man,

929
00:39:55,800 --> 00:40:00,120
Speaker 7: it's all about respect. In that halftime, I rememb I'm

930
00:40:00,239 --> 00:40:02,480
Speaker 7: in the locker room, man, everybody's fired up because it

931
00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:04,880
Speaker 7: was there was something that you know, I knew, we

932
00:40:04,960 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 7: knew we got thirty minutes to go get respect, you know,

933
00:40:07,320 --> 00:40:10,200
Speaker 7: And so that was the difference of I don't get

934
00:40:10,239 --> 00:40:11,880
Speaker 7: me wrong, I think we were two and four at

935
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:15,480
Speaker 7: the time, right, trying to remember was week five.

936
00:40:15,480 --> 00:40:19,000
Speaker 3: So you were yeah, well no, you're two and two.

937
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:21,800
Speaker 3: Maybe yeah, maybe one and three something.

938
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 6: But I know the record could have went way different

939
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,040
Speaker 6: if we lost that game.

940
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:26,799
Speaker 3: That was a turning point because that was the first

941
00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 3: of the four straight wins to get to six and

942
00:40:28,360 --> 00:40:31,200
Speaker 3: four at the buy. Yeah, that was all part of that.

943
00:40:31,400 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: So when you watch tape right now of the forty

944
00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:35,600
Speaker 1: nine ers, what are you seeing on tape?

945
00:40:36,120 --> 00:40:38,000
Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing is that they have so

946
00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:38,800
Speaker 6: many weapons.

947
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 7: I think that's every single time, right, And even with

948
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:44,680
Speaker 7: losing some weapons, they still have so many weapons. That's

949
00:40:44,719 --> 00:40:47,080
Speaker 7: a deep roster, you know, and so they played great

950
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,080
Speaker 7: team ball. So I think that's the biggest thing. Is

951
00:40:49,719 --> 00:40:52,080
Speaker 7: you know, as a defense, we got to outperform their defense,

952
00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 7: you know, and they have a great defense.

953
00:40:54,320 --> 00:40:57,480
Speaker 5: So brock Party has been ruled out. It's that he's

954
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 5: been ruled out for this game of course. Mc Christian, McCaffrey,

955
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:05,160
Speaker 5: Brandon Ayuk, Trent Williams. These guys are all on I

956
00:41:05,520 --> 00:41:10,120
Speaker 5: R right now. So they've been decimated by injuries. Of course,

957
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,759
Speaker 5: tell me what you're seeing scheme wise, what kind of

958
00:41:13,840 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 5: schemes are they still running?

959
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 6: Right?

960
00:41:15,680 --> 00:41:18,560
Speaker 7: We're expecting Josh Dobbs, you know, to to play, yes,

961
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:20,560
Speaker 7: you know, so you know, thankfully.

962
00:41:20,320 --> 00:41:22,839
Speaker 1: He was here, you know, so so you here kind

963
00:41:22,920 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 1: of familiar with right talent.

964
00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,719
Speaker 7: Right, so being able to you know, prep for him

965
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 7: and and he's great with his legs as well, you know,

966
00:41:29,640 --> 00:41:31,920
Speaker 7: so he's also a great runner. So that's something that

967
00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,600
Speaker 7: we got to prepare, you know, on film, you know,

968
00:41:34,880 --> 00:41:38,440
Speaker 7: when watching tape san Fran understanding that you know they

969
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,000
Speaker 7: are going to be a great offense.

970
00:41:40,120 --> 00:41:41,359
Speaker 6: You know, I got a great one of the great

971
00:41:41,800 --> 00:41:43,160
Speaker 6: play callers in this league, you know.

972
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:47,800
Speaker 7: So but then also understand that you know, uh, Josh Dobbs,

973
00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:49,680
Speaker 7: the guy that can extend a play, you know, with

974
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 7: some of the best quarterbacks.

975
00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:51,120
Speaker 6: In the league.

976
00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,160
Speaker 1: Really is a different type of quarterback from Brock Purty,

977
00:41:54,280 --> 00:41:54,560
Speaker 1: is he not?

978
00:41:54,800 --> 00:41:56,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, he's I know, he's confident in running the ball

979
00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,200
Speaker 7: as well, you know, so whether that's you know, rushing

980
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:01,080
Speaker 7: to get yards or just to extend the play and

981
00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,359
Speaker 7: make it make it throw. He's a guy who's played

982
00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,680
Speaker 7: a lot of games in this league, you know. So

983
00:42:05,560 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 7: you know, I know they're not going to really you know,

984
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:08,960
Speaker 7: hold back, hold him back too much here to give

985
00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 7: him the reins to run the offense.

986
00:42:10,160 --> 00:42:14,520
Speaker 3: And so I'll tell you what he can really run.

987
00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:16,319
Speaker 3: I mean, he's not just mobile like he I think

988
00:42:16,360 --> 00:42:18,680
Speaker 3: the sideline was like, wow, he can really run. Last

989
00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:20,640
Speaker 3: year he took off a few times. Here's the other

990
00:42:20,680 --> 00:42:23,600
Speaker 3: thing before he before Kyler came back, I asked him,

991
00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,759
Speaker 3: as a NASA intern and a guy with an aerospace

992
00:42:26,840 --> 00:42:29,279
Speaker 3: engineering degree, right, I asked him, do you believe in

993
00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:32,000
Speaker 3: UFOs and aliens? He said no, So, just just so

994
00:42:32,120 --> 00:42:33,920
Speaker 3: you're aware of that, he does not believe in UFOs

995
00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:36,400
Speaker 3: and aliens astronaut right aster or not?
