And this has been a terrific opportunity. Uh 46 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 5: Josh as he was putting together the team, and obviously 47 00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:36,359 Speaker 5: we all know what a great choice in Adam Peters, Uh, 48 00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,520 Speaker 5: Dan Quinn. Of course amazing and you know, look to 49 00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:43,239 Speaker 5: be part of that group with Josh working on this, 50 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,760 Speaker 5: it was just too great of an opportunity to pass 51 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 5: up the NFL. 52 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:52,079 Speaker 4: You had some special things, but you you basically did 53 00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 4: no seconds. 54 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:55,160 Speaker 1: Man, there's nothing that you haven't done. 55 00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 5: I'm trying to accumulate all those experiences we've We've said 56 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 5: the coaching in Washington change, and we know that has 57 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,360 Speaker 5: a lot to do with coach Queen, but has a 58 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:06,800 Speaker 5: lot to do with Adam Peterson. 59 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 1: How have you enjoyed watching the coach a change? 60 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, Look, I could tell you firsthand it is all 61 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 5: about culture. What's happening here is getting the right people 62 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 5: and the right shairs that are making the decisions, that 63 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 5: have the right set of principles and values and the 64 00:03:23,760 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 5: right clarity of vision for where we're going. 65 00:03:27,200 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 1: And that's a big part of why I joined. 66 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,760 Speaker 5: Before I join this team, I spent a lot of 67 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 5: time talking to Adam, talking to Josh and just believe entirely. 68 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:36,600 Speaker 4: And where we're headed and what we're doing, and how 69 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 4: does that connect when you take football coach. I understand 70 00:03:39,480 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 4: that in the building when it comes to the football team, 71 00:03:41,920 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 4: but how does that connect and how does it affect 72 00:03:43,960 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 4: the business side. 73 00:03:45,480 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 5: It should touch everything that we do, right, whether we're 74 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 5: talking to sponsors, whether we're out with fans, whether we're 75 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 5: working on how we're going to build the community around 76 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 5: the new stadium, all of that. 77 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 1: Should feel like it's connected. 78 00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:00,480 Speaker 5: We talk about it all the time, and we got 79 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 5: to all be rowing in the same direction as one team. 80 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:06,200 Speaker 5: And that starts with a lining behind that culture. So 81 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 5: it's a huge part of the foundation that we're building 82 00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,880 Speaker 5: and now we got to keep expanding that across everything 83 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 5: we're doing. 84 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,680 Speaker 2: So when you talk about the stadium, obviously you're right 85 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,800 Speaker 2: in the middle of this project. 86 00:04:16,880 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: And I don't have to tell you. 87 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:20,479 Speaker 2: I think anyone that's familiar with this franchise knows the 88 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 2: connection that this has with that site. 89 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's the spiritual home of our football team. It 90 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:26,599 Speaker 1: really is. 91 00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,839 Speaker 5: When you think about whenever I talk to fans and 92 00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 5: they talk to me about the memories of whether it's 93 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 5: the stadium shaking because it was so loud, or seat 94 00:04:36,279 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 5: cushions flying all over the place, or you. 95 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: Know, running up to Super Bowl championships. 96 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 5: It is a special place and I think it's it's 97 00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:49,520 Speaker 5: important for the city too. This is the nation's capital. 98 00:04:50,160 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 5: We should have a stadium in the nation's capital that 99 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,080 Speaker 5: is worthy of being in the nations. And that's what 100 00:04:58,200 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 5: RFK is all about, and that's why we want want 101 00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:02,720 Speaker 5: to bring that back and get that done and do 102 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 5: it by twenty thirty. I want us play football twenty 103 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:07,880 Speaker 5: thirty in that stadium. 104 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,680 Speaker 4: And I think people jesse a stadium, it's gonna be 105 00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 4: a lot more than the stadium. 106 00:05:11,960 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 5: Right, one hundred percent. So what makes this such a 107 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 5: special location is right now, if you if you drive 108 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 5: in that area, you see the old stadium that's right, 109 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 5: the armory it's there. We want to transform that into 110 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,800 Speaker 5: the jewel of d C. Right, it's one hundred and 111 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 5: eighty acres. That includes riverfront, so Anacosta River waterfront. You've 112 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 5: got an incredible set of communities. We want every form 113 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 5: of housing, retail, entertainment. It should truly be the crowning 114 00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,599 Speaker 5: jewel of DC. And I think with partnership with the 115 00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 5: city and City Council and the communities, we can. 116 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: Build that together. 117 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,520 Speaker 2: And when you talk about a standalone bill that could happen, 118 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: does that change the timeline at all? 119 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:01,480 Speaker 1: How does that How does that shift anything, if at all? 120 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 2: What's that the if it becomes a standalone bill or 121 00:06:04,160 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 2: the politics of it, does it. 122 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: Change the time? 123 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 4: No? 124 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 5: Look, so I think that that the good news is 125 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,719 Speaker 5: everybody that I'm talking to and working with, whether it's 126 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,640 Speaker 5: the mayor's team that have been terrific partners or city council, 127 00:06:17,120 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 5: everybody is really trying. 128 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 1: To find the right path to get all of this done. 129 00:06:21,640 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 5: And as you know, there's a lot of a lot 130 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 5: of complexity, a lot of things that have to be 131 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 5: talked through and decided. But I feel like right now 132 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 5: we're in a moment where we got to go and 133 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 5: make this happen. This is our window, this is our 134 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:37,359 Speaker 5: opportunity for the city, for the team. 135 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:39,159 Speaker 1: We got to get the things done. 136 00:06:39,200 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 5: We got to make sure we come together and close 137 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 5: the door and get it out, get it going well. 138 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,200 Speaker 4: One thing, you know, for me being in the city 139 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:47,920 Speaker 4: and talking to fans and stuff, you know, tailgating. 140 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: Is a big, big tradition here. Sure people really really 141 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,200 Speaker 1: love doing it. 142 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 4: And every time I hear I'm like, they'd be like, 143 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 4: I'm ready for the statement, But are we gonna have 144 00:06:55,640 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 4: any anywhere to tail getting? 145 00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:59,800 Speaker 5: We are gonna have places to tail date all right, 146 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 5: promise you I know how poor that is. And so 147 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 5: as we think about the design and how we're building out, 148 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,680 Speaker 5: of course, when we first open the stadium, there's still 149 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,560 Speaker 5: going to be a lot of surface parking where you 150 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,120 Speaker 5: can tailgate. But even when we're building the structured parking, 151 00:07:16,440 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 5: we're going to ensure that there's going to be just 152 00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 5: over a thousand spaces that are dedicated to tailgating. Think 153 00:07:22,760 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 5: of the roofs of the structure or near in areas 154 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 5: where fans are going to be able to still come 155 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,240 Speaker 5: and tailgate.

It was just one of those 330 00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 6: statements where you know, it's not like an open statement. 331 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: It was more on top of you. 332 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 6: And that's what made it so well, you know, and 333 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 6: you know the grass was great, but the most important 334 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 6: thing was the player. 335 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:49,680 Speaker 1: The Burgan didn't go. That's right. 336 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,360 Speaker 6: It wasn't the day that we walked out of there. 337 00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:55,200 Speaker 6: We didn't feel like we was gonna win the football. 338 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 6: And I think that's what we're getting back to. But 339 00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:01,080 Speaker 6: I'll tell you that plays over there. You know, there's 340 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 6: a lot of ghosts and everything else is in that place, 341 00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:07,200 Speaker 6: just still running over there. I can see Dexter Mainland 342 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:09,320 Speaker 6: and Charles coming. 343 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,920 Speaker 1: Off the edge. Now you know dal Green, I know 344 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 1: we'll forget Daryl Green. 345 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 6: And when we went to the Super Bowl in nineteen 346 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 6: eighty eight, the biggest player of that game was the 347 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 6: past that Darrel Green knocked down at the gold line. 348 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:23,240 Speaker 6: And I saw there today. Man, every time I think 349 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:26,600 Speaker 6: about Dale Green, I think about the punt return in Chicago, 350 00:16:27,040 --> 00:16:29,960 Speaker 6: but the past that he knocked down against Minnesota. 351 00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,960 Speaker 1: Running down twenty set was again, yeah, but it was. 352 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:36,680 Speaker 6: There's so much history over there, man, it's unbelievable, and 353 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 6: you know it has to be torn down, and you hate, 354 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:41,760 Speaker 6: you hate for it to be torn down, but we 355 00:16:41,880 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 6: all know the history can always be that and the 356 00:16:44,440 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 6: most important thing. We can put another stam up in 357 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 6: that spot and that would be big. And you know, 358 00:16:49,840 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 6: I don't I'm not too much in the politics, but 359 00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 6: let me say this. I think all the councilmens that 360 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:59,000 Speaker 6: are in DC, you know, just need to understand what 361 00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:02,400 Speaker 6: it means to d see. Yes, the brain the command 362 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 6: us back home and and I know Mark and Josh 363 00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 6: and everybody's working on it, but I just hope that 364 00:17:09,119 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 6: all these politicians go to bed. 365 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 1: That night and wake up and say, you know what, 366 00:17:12,359 --> 00:17:14,320 Speaker 1: let's get it done.

You know, 410 00:19:07,560 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 6: I had first hand look up closed man and just 411 00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 6: watch and see how they worked this past year and 412 00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 6: the way he built the team characters, older guys, younger 413 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:19,360 Speaker 6: guys and mixed them in together. The thing about it 414 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:23,000 Speaker 6: what makes it so great. You don't have any bad guys. 415 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:24,960 Speaker 6: You know, a lot of people want this player and 416 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:27,600 Speaker 6: that player. That's not how they looked at it. It looked 417 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,119 Speaker 6: at you know, football player, but the character of it. 418 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:34,320 Speaker 6: And they named it brotherhood. Let me tell you something, 419 00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 6: it's not a better brotherhood than what we have over there. 420 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,800 Speaker 6: And the thing I saw most of anything the young 421 00:19:39,880 --> 00:19:43,239 Speaker 6: Jayden Dame, the quarterback. And let me say this, he 422 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 6: can play quarterback, but he's a better human being than 423 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,920 Speaker 6: he is a quarterback. And I think that makes the 424 00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:53,760 Speaker 6: difference because I saw Bobby Wagner. When Bobby Wagner walked 425 00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:56,800 Speaker 6: through the door, you know, I saw leadership walk in 426 00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:01,720 Speaker 6: and then Zach Ertz and I seen those two guys 427 00:20:02,160 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 6: with Jade Daniens. How closed they became so early quick, 428 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 6: and I think that was the difference how everybody jailed together. 429 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 6: Now it's one year. 430 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: You said it from day one. 431 00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 7: We were at training camp last year and you said, 432 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:14,400 Speaker 7: from day one we got some special. 433 00:20:14,600 --> 00:20:15,720 Speaker 1: What'd you see right away? 434 00:20:16,240 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 6: Well, you know, you just watched the guy Jayden, especially 435 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 6: you watch him on the field, how he carried himself. 436 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,120 Speaker 6: He never got too high, he never got too low. 437 00:20:24,560 --> 00:20:26,679 Speaker 6: He was the same guy every day you saw him. 438 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:29,280 Speaker 6: And I used to come in there every morning six thirty. 439 00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:33,720 Speaker 6: He's already parked, you know. So he's all football. He's 440 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,600 Speaker 6: all football, but he's a great individual. He works at it. 441 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 6: And then the way he just bring everybody together. Man, 442 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:41,640 Speaker 6: it was easy to see. And the way he operated 443 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,600 Speaker 6: on the field during training camp, it was it was 444 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 6: all one day. I don't think the ball hit the ground. Yeah, yeah, 445 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 6: and that was a great day. 446 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 4: Now they tell you a lot shown a lot of 447 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,000 Speaker 4: people don't know you're a native DMV. 448 00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:55,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, man, you were born and raised here, right, Like, 449 00:20:56,320 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: what is that to you? 450 00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 4: Because I know you got to have a couple of 451 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:01,640 Speaker 4: different emotions when it come to this stadium.

It's time stampless because I'm like, how 507 00:23:25,440 --> 00:23:28,320 Speaker 4: old were you at the time, because you old right now, 508 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:31,040 Speaker 4: like I'm home, Like so it kind of time stamp 509 00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:33,160 Speaker 4: you and take them back for the moment. But that's 510 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:36,359 Speaker 4: what sports does. It's the ultimate time stamp. They know 511 00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:40,560 Speaker 4: where they was on that Sunday, that Monday, sometime Thursday now, like. 512 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 1: So it's a different thing when it comes to sports. 513 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,240 Speaker 2: J And when you look at this team in particular, 514 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 2: it has such a great mix. 515 00:23:46,280 --> 00:23:47,240 Speaker 1: We got Hall of famers on this. 516 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 2: Team and these young bucks who have come in, Like 517 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 2: it's a really good mix of players where you can 518 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,600 Speaker 2: see where this team is gonna go. 519 00:23:53,119 --> 00:23:55,439 Speaker 6: There's no doubt, you know, just bringing them in like 520 00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:58,119 Speaker 6: it did you know Bobby Bobby Wagon had been playing 521 00:23:58,560 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 6: football for years, but you know, his mentality is a 522 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,600 Speaker 6: little different than a guy that's been around as loan. 523 00:24:05,119 --> 00:24:08,080 Speaker 6: He got a young mentality and he put it all 524 00:24:08,119 --> 00:24:10,600 Speaker 6: into the other players. And he's not selfish. I think 525 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,200 Speaker 6: that's the biggest thing. You know, Zach is the same way. 526 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:13,520 Speaker 1: Man. 527 00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,800 Speaker 6: You know, Zach might not be what he used to be, 528 00:24:16,280 --> 00:24:18,399 Speaker 6: but he all of what he is right now. And 529 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:20,840 Speaker 6: the good thing about this this thing you talk about 530 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 6: Adam Peterson, and you know, you think about the draft, 531 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 6: we only had five draft peekte picks. We had seven, 532 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 6: to be honest with you, because we got to ye 533 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 6: and we got deep. So there's nowhere in the world 534 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:35,120 Speaker 6: you can get a fifth rounder like you can't get 535 00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 6: a third rounder like Towns. So we got fortune in that. 536 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:40,200 Speaker 6: So with the team has been better and then we 537 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 6: got another offensive line first round. And what they're doing 538 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,240 Speaker 6: is building around Jaydon Daniels. Let's face this Jaydon and 539 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:50,159 Speaker 6: Day team. And I think we got to look at 540 00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 6: it from that standpoint, that his team. But it's not 541 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 6: a selfish guy. He's all in. But everybody, you know, 542 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 6: I text him today, man, and I told him, I 543 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 6: hope he's enjoying it summer. And when he get back roll, 544 00:25:02,200 --> 00:25:04,160 Speaker 6: he said, hey, I'm ready to roll all the time. 545 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 6: And that was a good text, you know, because that's 546 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 6: that's the feeling. 547 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 4: Now you right now, right now, you are told right 548 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 4: you have to protect the asset, and here is the asset. 549 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 4: And if people really look at this office line last 550 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,680 Speaker 4: time we won big. 551 00:25:16,720 --> 00:25:18,600 Speaker 1: We had the hogs up from all. 552 00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,719 Speaker 4: Right, So now this this version, I'm calling the wild 553 00:25:21,800 --> 00:25:25,680 Speaker 4: boards and you think about this.

Like every locker room is like that, 593 00:27:12,640 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 2: every locker room the. 594 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:17,760 Speaker 4: Worst team talking about me. I've been in different locker 595 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:21,560 Speaker 4: rooms I've had. I started off with Martin Shan him disciplinarian. 596 00:27:21,840 --> 00:27:25,560 Speaker 4: I end up with coach Gibbs, somebody the coaches totally different. 597 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,760 Speaker 4: Than like, that's what thing that all all us got 598 00:27:27,800 --> 00:27:30,359 Speaker 4: in coming was coach Gibbs.

So I totally understand what you mean 602 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 4: by coach when you break coach up. 603 00:27:39,400 --> 00:27:40,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's absolutely a huge thing. 604 00:27:40,840 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 2: And amongst this group, maybe more than any other group 605 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:44,400 Speaker 2: we've seen in a long time. 606 00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,520 Speaker 1: Like it's Matt Person, the person, the person.

You walk in that building, you 611 00:27:57,720 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 6: see players, pictures dex to man in charge, man every 612 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:04,359 Speaker 6: let them flut all on the wall. He wants to 613 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 6: get to know everybody. He has no problem with him 614 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 6: coming by that. 615 00:28:07,720 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 1: You know. 616 00:28:08,040 --> 00:28:10,280 Speaker 6: Charles Man called me in and he's suppore they come 617 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 6: to practice. And he'd even come. He said, I was 618 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,560 Speaker 6: waiting on the call because Charge over the years wouldn't 619 00:28:15,560 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 6: come by a lot of players wouldn't come by there 620 00:28:18,160 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 6: with the open arms of that which from Adam and Dan, 621 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,920 Speaker 6: I think that makes the difference to bringing old mix 622 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 6: rich the gap, the. 623 00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:30,440 Speaker 1: Gap if you're gonna move on in the future, that's right. Well, 624 00:28:30,440 --> 00:28:32,320 Speaker 1: that's why you're here because you're a huge part of 625 00:28:32,320 --> 00:28:34,199 Speaker 1: this team. Is fast.

When 638 00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 7: we got a little guy, he's not super big, but 639 00:29:06,040 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 7: we got superman little Mike sister, I call him Superman. 640 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 7: He walking in with his glasses, be a bad man 641 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:13,880 Speaker 7: when he takes his glasses. 642 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:14,040 Speaker 2: All. 643 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 7: But but when you when you think about the talked 644 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:19,840 Speaker 7: about building around Dayton, I think when we drafted this 645 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 7: year with Colin and Amos, we actually got really, really, 646 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:27,200 Speaker 7: really good pieces that we needed. So when you think 647 00:29:27,240 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 7: about the cornerback position, I thought we were good yeast year. 648 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 7: I thought we we improved from the first week when 649 00:29:33,040 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 7: we saw him against last week to the last week. 650 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:38,840 Speaker 7: But now I think with the thenity with Joe whitness 651 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 7: guys trying to do we get we're adding speed. We 652 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:42,960 Speaker 7: had guys that a run not. 653 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 4: Only a long they can move and size up front 654 00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,120 Speaker 4: also size up front we got. 655 00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,280 Speaker 7: We got sized up front, and Newton was coming on. 656 00:29:49,360 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 7: I think he came off, and you know, so we 657 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 7: you know obviously Louvu and and Bobby.

If you go to practice, I remember 660 00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:08,280 Speaker 7: they break down every aspect of the game from individual 661 00:30:08,720 --> 00:30:10,920 Speaker 7: you watch the individual drill they're working on the little 662 00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:14,920 Speaker 7: thing to situation where your to two man to seven 663 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:17,960 Speaker 7: or seven situational.

That's it takes a mentality. 690 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 4: And I think people don't understand because y'all sit on 691 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:40,400 Speaker 4: your couch and be like smoothest springs getting tore up 692 00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:40,920 Speaker 4: out there. 693 00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:49,040 Speaker 1: And never said springs. 694 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 4: But go ahead, what you're saying but to have the 695 00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 4: mentality to get back up in front of millions of 696 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 4: people and do it over and over again. That's the 697 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,280 Speaker 4: ability that look for the mental build up, and he 698 00:31:58,360 --> 00:31:59,400 Speaker 4: got the mental build up. 699 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:00,320 Speaker 1: He does. 700 00:32:00,520 --> 00:32:03,400 Speaker 7: And you know, playing in the SEC, you know you 701 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:05,200 Speaker 7: can't take that for granted because he played against a 702 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,960 Speaker 7: very very good competition. He played against the best. It 703 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 7: shows up and he you know, when you think about this, 704 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 7: the mixture of. 705 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:16,560 Speaker 1: Guys back there, Yeah, I need some talent.

I said, 708 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 4: Buckeye a lot more that hamstring. But he's gonna be good. 709 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 4: He's gonna be good. 710 00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:28,160 Speaker 2: Listening to him and watching it like he is already 711 00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:28,880 Speaker 2: the safety. 712 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,560 Speaker 4: Will Harris is gonna bring some to the team that 713 00:32:31,560 --> 00:32:34,720 Speaker 4: I don't think people understand. He's diversity, He could play nickel, 714 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:39,160 Speaker 4: he can play just anything. And my guy that I 715 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,520 Speaker 4: really because everybody gets crunk up about the guys that 716 00:32:42,600 --> 00:32:44,680 Speaker 4: we bring in. What about the guys that we already 717 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:47,640 Speaker 4: got that's gonna get better? A guy like Tyler Owens. 718 00:32:47,720 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 4: Don't be shocked if y'all start to see him in 719 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 4: the rotation because to me, I think he could take playing, 720 00:32:53,080 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 4: take that safety to a whole another level. 721 00:32:54,720 --> 00:32:56,360 Speaker 1: Well, let's talk about little Mikey though. 722 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 7: Yeah, Smooth, you and I we we talked about him 723 00:32:59,360 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 7: last year. 724 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 4: Best rickey conerback since Fred Smooth drafted by the team. 725 00:33:05,440 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: I appreciate what. I wouldn't argue that. 726 00:33:07,480 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 7: But one of the things we talked about, we're talking 727 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:11,520 Speaker 7: about a guy. If you know, if he was two 728 00:33:11,560 --> 00:33:13,440 Speaker 7: inches taller, he might have been a top five pick. 729 00:33:13,560 --> 00:33:16,000 Speaker 1: Well, we talked. We talked about. 730 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 4: Saban said pound pound. Nick Satan said why they was 731 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,000 Speaker 4: going through the draft. He like, if I had to 732 00:33:22,080 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 4: draft anybody, it'll be Mike sanma Steel pound for pound. 733 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 4: The best football player. He didn't say corner, he said 734 00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:28,480 Speaker 4: best football. 735 00:33:28,560 --> 00:33:30,520 Speaker 7: But when you think about some of the players, I 736 00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 7: recall the Detroit game. Yeah, you know, Mikey was out 737 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 7: there making place. He was the two picks, you know, 738 00:33:36,120 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 7: changing the game. He changed the game for us. And 739 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:42,040 Speaker 7: you know it's just the veterans mixing with the young 740 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 7: guys and then just the scheme. We we don't give 741 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,800 Speaker 7: Joe wid enough credit by how all those guys and 742 00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,200 Speaker 7: the secondary is about communication or deference. About communication, You 743 00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:54,960 Speaker 7: never really see these guys out of place, you know 744 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 7: you and it doesn't it doesn't. It doesn't matter who's 745 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 7: in the game. They all play as in unit. They 746 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 7: all play fast. 747 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,120 Speaker 4: And that was their first year together. Like this's gonna 748 00:34:03,120 --> 00:34:05,800 Speaker 4: be their second year under this defense. That's gonna let 749 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 4: them play a little fast, gonna give him a little 750 00:34:07,640 --> 00:34:09,319 Speaker 4: bit of freedom on what he could call and what 751 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 4: he can't. And that's what I said. When you bring 752 00:34:11,239 --> 00:34:14,360 Speaker 4: three hundred and thirty pounds a man like Javon Kinlong 753 00:34:14,400 --> 00:34:17,320 Speaker 4: and put him on their defensive line, you bring Dietrich 754 00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,719 Speaker 4: Wise and you put another three hundred pounds on that 755 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:24,359 Speaker 4: defensive line, that tell me. From that NFC Championship game 756 00:34:24,440 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 4: last year, we walked away saying we need to get 757 00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:29,880 Speaker 4: bigger in the trenches. And that's what we did. We 758 00:34:29,920 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 4: went got boys that smelled like bacon. Larah Matompsaon smell 759 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:37,160 Speaker 4: like bacon. All the boys smell like bacon. They give 760 00:34:37,160 --> 00:34:40,800 Speaker 4: you a chance to win football game, they do when. 761 00:34:40,640 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 2: You've got guys that are coming into the league. 762 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:49,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, sorry, I'm sorry. It's everybody except for Turkey Base. 763 00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:55,719 Speaker 1: Turkey Base. Everybody we saw that handwhip around what. Yeah, 764 00:34:57,520 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: we took his. 765 00:34:58,080 --> 00:35:02,400 Speaker 3: Cards through there you hurt he from Mississippi from the 766 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 3: root to the two. 767 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,240 Speaker 2: So I mean, you guys know, when you play corner, 768 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,279 Speaker 2: you obviously have to have a short memory. But not 769 00:35:10,400 --> 00:35:13,360 Speaker 2: all the guys we see play so fearlessly. But Mikey 770 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:14,759 Speaker 2: is fearless. 771 00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:15,280 Speaker 1: Because he studies. 772 00:35:15,640 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 4: You can always tell somebody that's leaning on what I studied, 773 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna play off of what I believe. Some 774 00:35:21,600 --> 00:35:23,959 Speaker 4: guys are just out there winging it. Some guys don't 775 00:35:23,960 --> 00:35:27,680 Speaker 4: do that. Some guys make mental meet talent meet preparation. 776 00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:30,520 Speaker 4: And you can always tell, especially with a corner, because 777 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 4: sometime when they haven't studied, they'll be a little bit 778 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,480 Speaker 4: more hesitant. He was never his he was always downhill. 779 00:35:36,160 --> 00:35:38,200 Speaker 7: In each week he just improved. That's that's what I 780 00:35:38,280 --> 00:35:40,719 Speaker 7: like to see about a young guy. How did he 781 00:35:40,880 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 7: look from week one to week six to week six, 782 00:35:43,120 --> 00:35:46,759 Speaker 7: weeks twelve, and how he performed in playoffs. So part 783 00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:49,319 Speaker 7: of that studying, part of it is getting comfortable in 784 00:35:49,360 --> 00:35:51,160 Speaker 7: what you can do in your abilities. Because at one 785 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:54,000 Speaker 7: time we started off having Mikey inside, he was inside. 786 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 4: Would he'll be playing a lot inside this year? But 787 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,840 Speaker 4: when we moved him out to the left. We questioned. 788 00:35:57,840 --> 00:35:59,520 Speaker 4: We was like, well, okay, we see the movie. 789 00:35:59,560 --> 00:36:01,120 Speaker 7: And when he we moved my I think was the 790 00:36:01,120 --> 00:36:03,879 Speaker 7: Philly game the first time or whenever they moved my south, 791 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 7: we were like, oh man, he balled out, ball out. 792 00:36:06,640 --> 00:36:10,960 Speaker 7: So the flexibility he gives you and then don't don't 793 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:14,880 Speaker 7: forget it knocks everybody down to the appropriate pag Now 794 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 7: no monogamy. 795 00:36:16,719 --> 00:36:19,840 Speaker 1: Eats your fifth corner now like so everything. 796 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:22,080 Speaker 4: Then you bring in a Jonathan Jones who played two 797 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 4: Super Bowl who got playoff experience. So now everybody's in 798 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 4: the proper slot. That's what I'm saying. 799 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:32,000 Speaker 7: And that death gives us flexibility because each week, you know, 800 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:34,239 Speaker 7: somebody may get necked up and go down. There's no 801 00:36:34,360 --> 00:36:37,080 Speaker 7: fall off, and that in order to win and go 802 00:36:37,160 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 7: where we want to go, we need that type of 803 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 7: death and we need that type of consistency performance by 804 00:36:41,920 --> 00:36:44,040 Speaker 7: the guys who might not be as starters that come in. 805 00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 7: We gotta give a shout out to Jerremany Reeves, Oh, Jeremy, 806 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 7: congratulation on the contract.

This commander's defense was ranged eighteen. 878 00:40:17,680 --> 00:40:19,720 Speaker 2: It's a course of Fox Sports. Can this defense. 879 00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 1: We were to the top ten this season. 880 00:40:21,120 --> 00:40:23,319 Speaker 4: Oh, they most definitely gonna be better sometime. I never 881 00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 4: care about the numbers. Did we win that day, Yeah, 882 00:40:25,719 --> 00:40:27,479 Speaker 4: we made a game up four hundred, but we didn't 883 00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:29,480 Speaker 4: give up four oh one. At the end of the day, 884 00:40:29,719 --> 00:40:32,560 Speaker 4: it's all about winning and I don't care about rankings 885 00:40:32,680 --> 00:40:34,640 Speaker 4: if I say anythings. I want us to be in 886 00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,960 Speaker 4: the top ten against the run, because then that tells 887 00:40:37,000 --> 00:40:39,880 Speaker 4: me we're forcing teams to pass and they're behind the chains. 888 00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:40,960 Speaker 1: So that's what I want. 889 00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:43,080 Speaker 4: I want to be top ten in russ because if 890 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:45,120 Speaker 4: you could stop a team from Russia, you can force 891 00:40:45,200 --> 00:40:46,919 Speaker 4: them to pass the ball. Now we got a chance 892 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,160 Speaker 4: to go make plays with the DB's and now we 893 00:40:49,239 --> 00:40:51,680 Speaker 4: got a chance to go get sex. Maybe some sex pharmers, 894 00:40:51,719 --> 00:40:54,399 Speaker 4: some force formers and some interceptions that change this game. 895 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:55,560 Speaker 1: So the run game for me. 896 00:40:55,600 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 7: The defense get better anyway. Because now they're in the 897 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:00,560 Speaker 7: second year of Joe Webb. Yeah, Church move you talked 898 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:03,719 Speaker 7: about that was their first year planning down. They're about 899 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 7: to get comfortable because they know what. First of all, 900 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,680 Speaker 7: they know the expectation of what happens when you step 901 00:41:08,719 --> 00:41:11,240 Speaker 7: on the field. The standard, the standard is the standard. 902 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:14,200 Speaker 7: And you know, Joe wit sets sets standard. 903 00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 4: Coach Quinn set and Adam sets the standard because they 904 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:19,360 Speaker 4: draft the right mentality, the right players. 905 00:41:19,840 --> 00:41:22,520 Speaker 7: So I think they're gonna be exciting. I think they're 906 00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 7: gonna be exciting. We got better in this back end. 907 00:41:25,280 --> 00:41:28,080 Speaker 7: We got better in the back. We got better, and 908 00:41:28,160 --> 00:41:29,279 Speaker 7: we got better in the front end. 909 00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 4: In the middle, it's one of the best the land back, 910 00:41:31,120 --> 00:41:32,440 Speaker 4: of course, one of the best in the league with 911 00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:36,560 Speaker 4: Frankie Lulu and Bobby Weack. And I think my guy 912 00:41:36,640 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 4: upfront is Newton, big Newton. 913 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,120 Speaker 7: I think that that he's gonna be better than. 914 00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: The second year. He had a little knees. He's healthy. 915 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 7: I think I think it's a reason we could let 916 00:41:47,080 --> 00:41:49,080 Speaker 7: Jonathan go okay, you know. 917 00:41:49,120 --> 00:41:50,840 Speaker 2: And what I love when you talk about being in 918 00:41:50,840 --> 00:41:52,440 Speaker 2: the second year under Joe Whitt, I think it's such 919 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,320 Speaker 2: a good point. It's not only do you know the defense, 920 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 2: then you know each other because when you guys play together. 921 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 2: I love the stories where you would just look at 922 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:02,040 Speaker 2: each other and yeah, I love because. 923 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 4: Now after playing a year in it, now I knew 924 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,920 Speaker 4: what Greg Willi was gonna do on third down. I 925 00:42:06,920 --> 00:42:08,719 Speaker 4: didn't have the second, guess, third and short, I know 926 00:42:08,719 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 4: you're finn call zero, I third and long, I know 927 00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,359 Speaker 4: you're fin the call covering four. Now we're gonna go 928 00:42:13,360 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 4: gold coverage in this situation, I don't need to I 929 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:17,399 Speaker 4: don't even need to look to the sideline because I've 930 00:42:17,400 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 4: been in and we done did it so many times 931 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:19,600 Speaker 4: over and over. 932 00:42:19,800 --> 00:42:21,560 Speaker 1: That allows us to play faster. 933 00:42:21,680 --> 00:42:25,080 Speaker 7: And it also allows you to trust right, Like I know, 934 00:42:25,480 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 7: like if I made a mistake of me and smoot 935 00:42:27,239 --> 00:42:29,440 Speaker 7: with checking the guys came off in motion and I 936 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 7: kind of took this guy and you know, and we 937 00:42:32,080 --> 00:42:34,919 Speaker 7: didn't call switch a combo or anything like that. 938 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: He played with me so much, I'm just gonna go 939 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:39,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to opposite trust. 940 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 7: Me, or I can tell him, hey man, let me 941 00:42:41,440 --> 00:42:44,960 Speaker 7: not move.
