00:00:04,428 --> 00:00:06,668
Speaker 1: Good Morning Football is the production of the NFL in

00:00:06,748 --> 00:00:09,148
Speaker 1: partnership with iHeartRadio.

3
00:00:10,468 --> 00:00:12,548
Speaker 2: Welcome to Good Morning Football. Look at this.

4
00:00:12,588 --> 00:00:15,068
Speaker 3: We are all at the breakfast table today along with

5
00:00:15,228 --> 00:00:19,228
Speaker 3: Isaiah Stands, back Rashad Jennings, and longtime guest, first time

6
00:00:19,308 --> 00:00:22,348
Speaker 3: co host Tarn Armstead. My name is m j Acassa Ruiz.

7
00:00:22,628 --> 00:00:32,028
Speaker 2: Let's start the show.

8
00:00:37,868 --> 00:00:42,348
Speaker 3: Good morning fall, Good morning everybody. You know, we haven't

9
00:00:42,348 --> 00:00:45,708
Speaker 3: done a fantastic job of being bright eyed, bushy tailed

10
00:00:46,068 --> 00:00:48,908
Speaker 3: when it's dark and early in Los Angeles, but here

11
00:00:48,948 --> 00:00:49,228
Speaker 3: we go.

12
00:00:49,388 --> 00:00:50,108
Speaker 2: That is our jobs.

13
00:00:50,108 --> 00:00:52,508
Speaker 3: Heye Tron, one hour down, How are you feeling?

14
00:00:52,708 --> 00:00:53,268
Speaker 4: Feeling great?

15
00:00:53,388 --> 00:00:58,788
Speaker 2: Away? Fantastic, he said it. Let's roll.

16
00:00:58,948 --> 00:01:01,868
Speaker 3: Let's get to the lead block, and there's a lot

17
00:01:01,908 --> 00:01:02,788
Speaker 3: of meat on this phone.

18
00:01:02,788 --> 00:01:03,028
Speaker 4: Guys.

19
00:01:03,228 --> 00:01:05,148
Speaker 2: Former Louval teammates.

20
00:01:04,868 --> 00:01:08,588
Speaker 3: Lamar Jackson and Guya Alexander are now reunited in Baltimore

21
00:01:08,748 --> 00:01:11,668
Speaker 3: the Ravens, adding him to a cornerback room that includes

22
00:01:11,668 --> 00:01:14,308
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four first rounder Nate Wiggins.

23
00:01:13,868 --> 00:01:15,988
Speaker 2: And veteran Tobodeo Woozier.

24
00:01:16,388 --> 00:01:19,428
Speaker 3: All pro Marlon Humsbrey is happy that the offense is

25
00:01:19,468 --> 00:01:22,548
Speaker 3: stacked with stars, but he wants the defense to be

26
00:01:22,628 --> 00:01:23,788
Speaker 3: front of center to listen.

27
00:01:25,748 --> 00:01:27,468
Speaker 5: I feel that when I first came to the Ravens,

28
00:01:27,508 --> 00:01:29,108
Speaker 5: it was all about the Ravens defense. It was all

29
00:01:29,108 --> 00:01:31,268
Speaker 5: about the Ravens defense. It was all about the Ravens defense.

30
00:01:31,308 --> 00:01:34,708
Speaker 5: And I feel like I've let that standard be in here,

31
00:01:35,028 --> 00:01:37,908
Speaker 5: I think, the longest defensive guy, I feel like I've

32
00:01:37,948 --> 00:01:39,908
Speaker 5: let that standard kind of slip, and that's something that

33
00:01:40,268 --> 00:01:41,068
Speaker 5: I want to get back.

34
00:01:41,108 --> 00:01:41,548
Speaker 4: I want it.

35
00:01:41,908 --> 00:01:43,268
Speaker 6: Obviously, we love Lamar Jackson.

36
00:01:43,508 --> 00:01:46,108
Speaker 5: It's a great, great player, but I want, you know,

37
00:01:46,148 --> 00:01:48,188
Speaker 5: the Ravens identity to be defense.

38
00:01:50,068 --> 00:01:52,548
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a strong statement, and I like that, and

39
00:01:52,588 --> 00:01:55,228
Speaker 3: he's hands on that. Okay, the Ravens have bolstered their defense.

40
00:01:55,508 --> 00:01:58,828
Speaker 3: Lamar is arguably at the peak of his powers. Derrick

41
00:01:58,868 --> 00:01:59,708
Speaker 3: Henry is still.

42
00:01:59,548 --> 00:02:02,508
Speaker 2: At the top of his game. I mean, the stars.

43
00:02:02,148 --> 00:02:05,108
Speaker 3: Really seem to be aligned for this odd But what

44
00:02:05,228 --> 00:02:07,788
Speaker 3: will the twenty twenty five season mean for the Baltimore

45
00:02:07,868 --> 00:02:10,428
Speaker 3: Ravens and more specifically for Lamar Jackson.

46
00:02:10,708 --> 00:02:12,828
Speaker 7: I truly believe that, you know, what you just heard

47
00:02:12,868 --> 00:02:14,628
Speaker 7: on air is what they have to give back to you.

48
00:02:14,708 --> 00:02:16,388
Speaker 4: I really believe that their defense.

49
00:02:16,108 --> 00:02:17,908
Speaker 7: Has always been at the core, has really been the

50
00:02:17,988 --> 00:02:20,508
Speaker 7: ethos of the Baltimore Ravens. That's what we've known them

51
00:02:20,508 --> 00:02:23,068
Speaker 7: to be over all their successful years, and I really

52
00:02:23,108 --> 00:02:25,308
Speaker 7: think that they're really going to take a tremendous step forward.

53
00:02:25,428 --> 00:02:27,228
Speaker 7: You talk about zach Or in his first year as

54
00:02:27,228 --> 00:02:29,188
Speaker 7: a defensive coordinator, he was out there able to do

55
00:02:29,268 --> 00:02:31,068
Speaker 7: some things. They're able to have a top ten defense,

56
00:02:31,108 --> 00:02:34,348
Speaker 7: but they weren't dominant, right. They were effective, they were impactful,

57
00:02:34,508 --> 00:02:36,868
Speaker 7: they impacted a game in a lot of different ways.

58
00:02:36,948 --> 00:02:39,068
Speaker 7: But I think that now with some of the additions

59
00:02:39,068 --> 00:02:40,988
Speaker 7: that they have, right they have the Kyle Hamilton as

60
00:02:41,268 --> 00:02:43,708
Speaker 7: to be out there, you have Humphreyes Okay, Jyry Alexander,

61
00:02:43,748 --> 00:02:45,948
Speaker 7: you have a try you know, a three headed monster

62
00:02:45,988 --> 00:02:48,068
Speaker 7: out there, the quarnerback position that's going to allow their

63
00:02:48,068 --> 00:02:49,908
Speaker 7: safeties and now be able to intermingle and do the

64
00:02:49,908 --> 00:02:51,388
Speaker 7: things that they want to do. Then you look at

65
00:02:51,388 --> 00:02:55,308
Speaker 7: the Kyle Van Noys. You know, you got and made Bouquet,

66
00:02:55,668 --> 00:02:57,148
Speaker 7: who can go out there and do some things as well.

67
00:02:57,188 --> 00:02:58,788
Speaker 7: He's a problem on the inside. So I think that

68
00:02:58,828 --> 00:03:00,828
Speaker 7: they now have gotten back to having a solid front

69
00:03:00,868 --> 00:03:03,388
Speaker 7: seven and the one piece that they were missing was

70
00:03:03,428 --> 00:03:05,428
Speaker 7: having that three head of months at the quarnerback position.

71
00:03:05,668 --> 00:03:06,468
Speaker 4: Now they have it.

72
00:03:06,668 --> 00:03:08,188
Speaker 7: Now they can go out there and be dominant on

73
00:03:08,228 --> 00:03:09,188
Speaker 7: the defense side of the ball.

74
00:03:09,828 --> 00:03:12,428
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they're always going to be defense, a defensive

75
00:03:12,468 --> 00:03:14,988
Speaker 1: mindset of team. I think even with Lamar Jackson, I

76
00:03:15,028 --> 00:03:18,068
Speaker 1: love Humphrey taking that ownership and responsibility and trying to

77
00:03:18,108 --> 00:03:19,028
Speaker 1: put it back on the defense.

78
00:03:19,028 --> 00:03:19,948
Speaker 6: That's what he's supposed to do.

79
00:03:20,108 --> 00:03:23,108
Speaker 1: That's what I'll staying in athletes, premier players, captains of

80
00:03:23,148 --> 00:03:24,908
Speaker 1: teams do put the onus on me.

81
00:03:25,308 --> 00:03:26,468
Speaker 6: I love that about them.

82
00:03:26,708 --> 00:03:30,268
Speaker 1: They are going to have a dominant regular season, as

83
00:03:30,348 --> 00:03:34,588
Speaker 1: I see them doing consistently. Lamar Jackson arguably is going

84
00:03:34,588 --> 00:03:38,828
Speaker 1: to be the MVP of the National Football League every

85
00:03:38,908 --> 00:03:42,748
Speaker 1: single year. I see that for them, though, they have

86
00:03:42,868 --> 00:03:45,428
Speaker 1: to be chopping at the bit, licking their chops for

87
00:03:45,588 --> 00:03:46,548
Speaker 1: post season.

88
00:03:46,628 --> 00:03:46,788
Speaker 4: Now.

89
00:03:46,788 --> 00:03:49,548
Speaker 1: They can't overlook the regular season. I mean, this is

90
00:03:49,588 --> 00:03:53,628
Speaker 1: the NFL. Anything can happen, but those guys get it

91
00:03:53,708 --> 00:03:55,948
Speaker 1: back to the postseason and doing something there.

92
00:03:55,988 --> 00:03:58,948
Speaker 6: I mean, that's where you get the itch.

93
00:03:58,748 --> 00:04:01,188
Speaker 1: Off of your back, and I feel like they have

94
00:04:01,268 --> 00:04:03,268
Speaker 1: to answer that. This is their year to prove that.

95
00:04:03,308 --> 00:04:05,188
Speaker 1: I think they have one of the better teams. They're

96
00:04:05,188 --> 00:04:07,628
Speaker 1: gonna be dominant. They're gonna be explosive, We're gonna talk

97
00:04:07,668 --> 00:04:09,468
Speaker 1: about them, Fantasy points a gonna be everywhere.

98
00:04:09,508 --> 00:04:10,268
Speaker 6: But when we get to.

99
00:04:10,188 --> 00:04:13,068
Speaker 1: The postseason, I'm foreshadowing this what is gonna happen.

100
00:04:14,748 --> 00:04:17,148
Speaker 8: I would even go so far to say that the

101
00:04:17,348 --> 00:04:20,588
Speaker 8: Ravens are on my way too early AFC Super Bowl favorite.

102
00:04:21,308 --> 00:04:22,988
Speaker 8: I can see them coming out of the AFC. I

103
00:04:22,988 --> 00:04:24,708
Speaker 8: think this is the year that they get.

104
00:04:24,548 --> 00:04:25,068
Speaker 6: Over the hump.

105
00:04:25,348 --> 00:04:28,708
Speaker 8: Lamar has been la marvelous throughout his career. He has

106
00:04:28,748 --> 00:04:31,108
Speaker 8: been and to your point, regular season they have been.

107
00:04:31,148 --> 00:04:33,948
Speaker 8: They have done really well. Postseason not so much. But

108
00:04:33,988 --> 00:04:37,228
Speaker 8: it's hard to even go back after heartbreaking in the

109
00:04:37,228 --> 00:04:39,548
Speaker 8: playoffs to go to pick yourself back up and go

110
00:04:39,588 --> 00:04:41,548
Speaker 8: win the division again and again. It's hard to do.

111
00:04:41,908 --> 00:04:43,868
Speaker 8: And that's the goal every year. You want to put

112
00:04:43,868 --> 00:04:46,028
Speaker 8: yourself in position to wins. You want to win the

113
00:04:46,028 --> 00:04:48,348
Speaker 8: division first, then you look at a playoffs season. So

114
00:04:48,388 --> 00:04:50,868
Speaker 8: they have done that to be able to knock the

115
00:04:50,908 --> 00:04:53,348
Speaker 8: Chiefs offt and knock the Buffalo Bills off in the playoffs.

116
00:04:54,188 --> 00:04:56,668
Speaker 8: Get you get a sound like Jyron Alexander to come over.

117
00:04:56,788 --> 00:04:58,708
Speaker 8: I think he is that piece that put them over

118
00:04:58,708 --> 00:05:01,268
Speaker 8: to hump. I think that that addition is the one

119
00:05:01,308 --> 00:05:02,908
Speaker 8: to put them over the hump. It frees up Cayl

120
00:05:02,988 --> 00:05:05,708
Speaker 8: Hamilton so much doesn't have to worry about the back

121
00:05:05,788 --> 00:05:08,628
Speaker 8: end coverage of so to be able to support in

122
00:05:08,628 --> 00:05:10,428
Speaker 8: the run game, to be able to blitz and add

123
00:05:10,428 --> 00:05:13,108
Speaker 8: pressure with the guys that they have on the outside.

124
00:05:13,388 --> 00:05:14,828
Speaker 4: I think this is the year they get over their home.

125
00:05:15,708 --> 00:05:17,868
Speaker 3: You mentioned Lamar there for a second, because how do

126
00:05:17,908 --> 00:05:20,308
Speaker 3: you view him as you continue to see his trajectory

127
00:05:20,388 --> 00:05:24,188
Speaker 3: so many MVP awards, success in the playoffs, but no

128
00:05:24,748 --> 00:05:25,708
Speaker 3: Super Bowl appearance.

129
00:05:25,988 --> 00:05:27,788
Speaker 2: That's a heavy cross to bear.

130
00:05:28,108 --> 00:05:28,308
Speaker 4: Yeah.

131
00:05:28,388 --> 00:05:32,228
Speaker 8: No, Seriously, he's been He's been battling Patrick Mahons as

132
00:05:32,308 --> 00:05:35,588
Speaker 8: the whole league. Mahons is dominated the AFC. He has,

133
00:05:35,748 --> 00:05:38,348
Speaker 8: he has, and I think with Lamar we've seen progress.

134
00:05:38,348 --> 00:05:40,588
Speaker 8: We've seen him only get better as a passer, more

135
00:05:40,628 --> 00:05:45,028
Speaker 8: comfortable as a passer. His anticipation, his pre snap breeze,

136
00:05:45,108 --> 00:05:48,668
Speaker 8: he's excelling. He's growing and that's only going to get

137
00:05:48,668 --> 00:05:50,988
Speaker 8: better for this guy that he's coming more cerebral of

138
00:05:51,068 --> 00:05:53,148
Speaker 8: the game. We know what he can do with his legs,

139
00:05:53,348 --> 00:05:56,508
Speaker 8: but he's getting even more dangerous with his arm, not

140
00:05:56,628 --> 00:05:58,948
Speaker 8: to mention that the truck he has behind him wearing

141
00:05:58,988 --> 00:06:02,548
Speaker 8: twenty two Derrick Henry is just I think this is

142
00:06:02,588 --> 00:06:03,788
Speaker 8: the year that they get over their home.

143
00:06:04,548 --> 00:06:06,348
Speaker 6: Dereck Henry has actual motives this year.

144
00:06:06,788 --> 00:06:09,468
Speaker 1: I don't know if y'all ran across that Adam Sandlers

145
00:06:09,828 --> 00:06:13,988
Speaker 1: offered them in a few rush for two K. So

146
00:06:14,508 --> 00:06:16,628
Speaker 1: I think everybody is going to be fan one and

147
00:06:16,668 --> 00:06:20,188
Speaker 1: for this to happen. Running the football. We all know

148
00:06:20,428 --> 00:06:22,428
Speaker 1: if you go watch any and everybody in the playoffs

149
00:06:22,468 --> 00:06:24,588
Speaker 1: and if you can control the run game, it's constant

150
00:06:24,588 --> 00:06:26,828
Speaker 1: and we're always in the locker room every single year.

151
00:06:26,868 --> 00:06:28,908
Speaker 1: We need to stop the run and we need to

152
00:06:28,988 --> 00:06:32,588
Speaker 1: establish to run. They can do both, and so I

153
00:06:32,628 --> 00:06:35,908
Speaker 1: think again, yes, this could be their year, but it

154
00:06:35,988 --> 00:06:39,588
Speaker 1: has to be their year. If this team, this dominant team,

155
00:06:39,588 --> 00:06:43,348
Speaker 1: everybody's healthy, doesn't make postseason, there'll be a lot of

156
00:06:43,428 --> 00:06:44,668
Speaker 1: question marks around player.

157
00:06:44,948 --> 00:06:45,468
Speaker 4: That's fair.

158
00:06:45,628 --> 00:06:47,268
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'm going to continue to go back to the

159
00:06:47,268 --> 00:06:50,068
Speaker 7: defense side, I think. But the one element that they've

160
00:06:50,108 --> 00:06:51,308
Speaker 7: been missing this is be able to go out there

161
00:06:51,348 --> 00:06:55,748
Speaker 7: and shut down the offensive. Onslought from Buffalo from Kansas City, right,

162
00:06:55,788 --> 00:06:56,908
Speaker 7: and now you go out there, you.

163
00:06:56,868 --> 00:06:59,548
Speaker 4: Have Hamilton, you have Starks, you have Humphrey.

164
00:06:59,588 --> 00:07:00,868
Speaker 7: You have these guys that can go out there and

165
00:07:00,908 --> 00:07:03,028
Speaker 7: line up, and you can intermingle these guys where if

166
00:07:03,028 --> 00:07:05,388
Speaker 7: you want to. In the secondary, the front seven is nasty.

167
00:07:05,428 --> 00:07:07,188
Speaker 7: We already know the front seven. They don't allow anybody

168
00:07:07,188 --> 00:07:09,708
Speaker 7: to run the ball d line. The solid linebackers are solid,

169
00:07:09,788 --> 00:07:11,908
Speaker 7: they can get to the quarterback. But now you can

170
00:07:12,068 --> 00:07:15,228
Speaker 7: have this complimentary game, all three fasts, the special teams

171
00:07:15,228 --> 00:07:17,428
Speaker 7: in solid and offensively, what do you want to do?

172
00:07:17,508 --> 00:07:19,308
Speaker 7: You want to run the ball, take time off the

173
00:07:19,308 --> 00:07:20,988
Speaker 7: clock right when the defense steps.

174
00:07:20,748 --> 00:07:21,148
Speaker 4: On the field.

175
00:07:21,148 --> 00:07:22,308
Speaker 7: What do you want You want to be able to

176
00:07:22,348 --> 00:07:23,908
Speaker 7: go ahead and shut down the run game and stop

177
00:07:23,948 --> 00:07:25,428
Speaker 7: them from being able to convert on third down so

178
00:07:25,468 --> 00:07:27,108
Speaker 7: you can get the ball back in the hands of

179
00:07:27,148 --> 00:07:29,228
Speaker 7: your offense. This is starting to look like a team

180
00:07:29,268 --> 00:07:31,908
Speaker 7: that is going to be dominant, regardless of how great

181
00:07:32,068 --> 00:07:34,348
Speaker 7: Lamar Jackson is, because of the fact that he doesn't

182
00:07:34,348 --> 00:07:36,508
Speaker 7: have to bear that weight. He could turn around. Can

183
00:07:36,668 --> 00:07:38,548
Speaker 7: the ball off fall for five yards? Let's do it

184
00:07:38,588 --> 00:07:40,468
Speaker 7: over and over again until we end up at point six.

185
00:07:40,988 --> 00:07:43,388
Speaker 3: There's a phrase we say often, especially when we think

186
00:07:43,388 --> 00:07:44,668
Speaker 3: about teams like the Ravens, like.

187
00:07:44,628 --> 00:07:45,628
Speaker 2: Man they're built different.

188
00:07:46,028 --> 00:07:50,268
Speaker 3: But standing on the sidelines in Baltimore in January, I

189
00:07:50,348 --> 00:07:54,428
Speaker 3: can confirm it. It's a different kind of cellular makeup

190
00:07:54,628 --> 00:07:57,148
Speaker 3: to be able to play in that type of atmosphere

191
00:07:57,148 --> 00:07:59,508
Speaker 3: to win and then consistently move.

192
00:07:59,388 --> 00:08:00,788
Speaker 2: On crazy all right.

193
00:08:00,828 --> 00:08:03,108
Speaker 3: The Ravens, Bills, and Chiefs have been at the top

194
00:08:03,148 --> 00:08:06,548
Speaker 3: of the AFCWST few years. However, a handful of teams

195
00:08:06,548 --> 00:08:09,308
Speaker 3: appear to be right on the cusp of breaking through.

196
00:08:09,348 --> 00:08:12,708
Speaker 3: So which AFC team could be that breakthrough team in

197
00:08:12,748 --> 00:08:15,268
Speaker 3: twenty twenty five or well?

198
00:08:15,268 --> 00:08:19,468
Speaker 1: Listen here, look, I'm telling you right now, AFC NFC,

199
00:08:19,828 --> 00:08:23,028
Speaker 1: it don't matter. You see whoever coming out of sofar

200
00:08:23,628 --> 00:08:26,668
Speaker 1: that team on both sides are the teams to watch.

201
00:08:27,068 --> 00:08:30,228
Speaker 1: With no doubt AFC. I'm definitely going with the Chargers.

202
00:08:30,388 --> 00:08:34,268
Speaker 1: I just realized the Chargers first round. Chargers are stacked

203
00:08:34,268 --> 00:08:38,308
Speaker 1: with first rounders. You got Herbert, justin Herbert's quarterback first rounder,

204
00:08:38,828 --> 00:08:42,148
Speaker 1: Joe left tackle, first rounder, Naji Harris first round of

205
00:08:42,188 --> 00:08:45,748
Speaker 1: coming over playing running back O Marion Hampton first rounder

206
00:08:45,908 --> 00:08:50,588
Speaker 1: drafted out of running back, Mike Williams first rounder, Quentin

207
00:08:50,668 --> 00:08:54,668
Speaker 1: Johnson first rounder. Then you got Lad mcconfree, second round.

208
00:08:54,668 --> 00:08:56,948
Speaker 1: He was early second round, and then they just picked

209
00:08:56,988 --> 00:08:58,788
Speaker 1: up Trey Harris, which out the NCAA.

210
00:08:58,908 --> 00:08:59,948
Speaker 4: He led all of.

211
00:09:00,388 --> 00:09:03,988
Speaker 1: College football one hundred and twenty eight yards per game,

212
00:09:04,508 --> 00:09:09,228
Speaker 1: the sixty six plus percentage of contestant catch rate, which

213
00:09:09,268 --> 00:09:11,668
Speaker 1: means somebody was in his face and he still caught

214
00:09:11,708 --> 00:09:14,948
Speaker 1: the ball, ladies and gentlemen. He only played eight games

215
00:09:15,028 --> 00:09:18,108
Speaker 1: and led all of NCAA coming out of old miss.

216
00:09:18,108 --> 00:09:21,148
Speaker 1: So when you give Herbert, you give Jim Haulball who

217
00:09:21,228 --> 00:09:23,548
Speaker 1: came out of her minding in Stanford. It took them

218
00:09:23,548 --> 00:09:25,668
Speaker 1: eleven and one to turn them into twelve and one.

219
00:09:25,708 --> 00:09:27,148
Speaker 1: Went to the forty nine ers when they were six

220
00:09:27,188 --> 00:09:32,628
Speaker 1: to ten, three national excuse me, three NFC championship games

221
00:09:32,748 --> 00:09:33,868
Speaker 1: and also won a Super Bowl.

222
00:09:33,908 --> 00:09:35,868
Speaker 6: And then he went to Michigan and he wanted.

223
00:09:35,668 --> 00:09:39,748
Speaker 1: The three straight college football playoffs along with Finatty. This

224
00:09:39,828 --> 00:09:44,148
Speaker 1: guy came in to the Chargers first year, took them

225
00:09:44,228 --> 00:09:47,148
Speaker 1: to the playoffs. He is a winner. The team has

226
00:09:47,228 --> 00:09:50,428
Speaker 1: first rounders everywhere. Watched them in the AFC this year.

227
00:09:50,828 --> 00:09:52,068
Speaker 1: See oh yeah yeah.

228
00:09:52,428 --> 00:09:55,228
Speaker 8: Face valid point, valid points. I will stay in that division.

229
00:09:55,468 --> 00:09:59,308
Speaker 8: I'm going Denver Broncos. I think Denver Broncos have a

230
00:09:59,428 --> 00:10:02,908
Speaker 8: chance to knock Kansas City off as the top of

231
00:10:02,908 --> 00:10:04,788
Speaker 8: the AFC West and beat the.

232
00:10:04,788 --> 00:10:06,548
Speaker 4: Team to break through. I was with Sean Pagnon for

233
00:10:06,628 --> 00:10:07,148
Speaker 4: nine years.

234
00:10:07,348 --> 00:10:09,948
Speaker 8: Great head coach, future Hall of Fame head coach, super

235
00:10:09,988 --> 00:10:13,348
Speaker 8: Bowl champion. I've watched him. We've seen him collectively as

236
00:10:13,348 --> 00:10:17,668
Speaker 8: football fans. We've watched him rebirth a city organization when

237
00:10:17,708 --> 00:10:19,308
Speaker 8: they won a Super Bowl down in New Orleans.

238
00:10:19,428 --> 00:10:20,548
Speaker 4: So we've seen this before.

239
00:10:20,868 --> 00:10:23,228
Speaker 8: How he came, how he brought Drew Brees and that

240
00:10:24,148 --> 00:10:26,948
Speaker 8: explosion of an offense, and how that progressed.

241
00:10:26,508 --> 00:10:29,188
Speaker 4: Into eventual Super Bowl champions. He got his guy. He

242
00:10:29,188 --> 00:10:30,228
Speaker 4: went and got bow Knicks.

243
00:10:30,548 --> 00:10:33,188
Speaker 8: The relationship with him and Russell Russell Wilson didn't been

244
00:10:33,268 --> 00:10:35,188
Speaker 8: pan out so well. He got the guy that he

245
00:10:35,268 --> 00:10:36,908
Speaker 8: that he wants to groom, that he can build this

246
00:10:36,988 --> 00:10:37,788
Speaker 8: franchise around.

247
00:10:38,068 --> 00:10:40,428
Speaker 4: I think bow Knicks takes that sophomore jump.

248
00:10:40,508 --> 00:10:43,908
Speaker 8: He takes a jumps, he's poised, he he's under control,

249
00:10:44,028 --> 00:10:47,908
Speaker 8: he's explosive. Then defensively, what they were able to do

250
00:10:47,988 --> 00:10:51,348
Speaker 8: under Vans Joseph was nothing short of incredible. He got

251
00:10:51,388 --> 00:10:53,988
Speaker 8: the best corner in the game, Patrick Shertain, Brandon Jones,

252
00:10:53,988 --> 00:10:56,668
Speaker 8: and they can really get out of the passer with

253
00:10:57,188 --> 00:10:59,428
Speaker 8: Nick Bonito and those guys up front. I like the

254
00:10:59,828 --> 00:11:01,828
Speaker 8: Denver Broncos to be the ones to knock off the

255
00:11:01,868 --> 00:11:04,668
Speaker 8: Chiefs and represent that AFC West year.

256
00:11:04,788 --> 00:11:05,988
Speaker 2: You think they cannot, I see it.

257
00:11:06,028 --> 00:11:11,788
Speaker 4: I can see about that much. I got that much

258
00:11:11,828 --> 00:11:12,868
Speaker 4: faith and Sean Payton.

259
00:11:13,588 --> 00:11:15,428
Speaker 7: So you bring up Sean Payton right, and you obviously

260
00:11:15,468 --> 00:11:17,668
Speaker 7: you've seen him with Drew Brees, and now he obviously

261
00:11:17,988 --> 00:11:19,788
Speaker 7: has the opportunity to work with bow Knicks. What kind

262
00:11:19,788 --> 00:11:22,908
Speaker 7: of leap do you see bow Knicks having having worked with.

263
00:11:22,828 --> 00:11:24,428
Speaker 4: Sean Payton now going into a second year.

264
00:11:24,668 --> 00:11:27,908
Speaker 8: Sean Payne is a quarterback guy, like that's that's his

265
00:11:28,028 --> 00:11:30,508
Speaker 8: one position that that he really locks in. He was

266
00:11:30,548 --> 00:11:32,588
Speaker 8: a quarterback. I don't know how well he did the

267
00:11:32,588 --> 00:11:37,468
Speaker 8: position like himself, but coaching the position, he really he

268
00:11:37,548 --> 00:11:41,428
Speaker 8: really understands the position. He really understands what defenses are doing.

269
00:11:41,868 --> 00:11:45,108
Speaker 8: He has indicators in his offense to allow the quarterback

270
00:11:45,108 --> 00:11:48,628
Speaker 8: to read, so his motions, his personnelity sets, it's all

271
00:11:48,788 --> 00:11:51,508
Speaker 8: for it for a reason. So it allows bo Knicks

272
00:11:51,548 --> 00:11:53,988
Speaker 8: to have a clear picture of I'm seeing cover two,

273
00:11:53,988 --> 00:11:56,748
Speaker 8: I'm seeing cover three. He knows what's happening before the snap.

274
00:11:57,028 --> 00:11:59,228
Speaker 8: Sean Payton does that better than anybody in the league.

275
00:11:59,308 --> 00:12:01,988
Speaker 7: Okay, I hear you guys. You guys are saying, but

276
00:12:01,988 --> 00:12:03,628
Speaker 7: I'm going to go to rag. You know what I'm

277
00:12:03,628 --> 00:12:05,548
Speaker 7: saying this is we talk about the AFC. You know,

278
00:12:05,748 --> 00:12:07,548
Speaker 7: let's go ahead and talk about these Houston Texas.

279
00:12:07,668 --> 00:12:07,868
Speaker 4: Yeah.

280
00:12:07,908 --> 00:12:11,068
Speaker 7: Demiko Ryans, Yeah, that guy right there, the good player

281
00:12:11,108 --> 00:12:12,748
Speaker 7: turned you know, really good coach as well.

282
00:12:13,068 --> 00:12:15,828
Speaker 4: These guys are a complete problem. And why are these

283
00:12:15,828 --> 00:12:16,468
Speaker 4: guys the problem?

284
00:12:16,548 --> 00:12:19,748
Speaker 7: Well, we know Demiko Ryans for playing what defense? Right,

285
00:12:19,788 --> 00:12:22,428
Speaker 7: we know these guys for having what defense. Not only

286
00:12:22,628 --> 00:12:24,508
Speaker 7: do we know the head coach, but we know what

287
00:12:24,668 --> 00:12:26,988
Speaker 7: the team is a representation of their coach. That means

288
00:12:26,988 --> 00:12:29,948
Speaker 7: that they had a top six, top six defense in

289
00:12:29,988 --> 00:12:32,628
Speaker 7: the league last year. They were top four in sacks

290
00:12:32,708 --> 00:12:34,508
Speaker 7: last year. So these guys are going to get after

291
00:12:34,708 --> 00:12:36,748
Speaker 7: the QB. These guys are going to take the ball away.

292
00:12:36,788 --> 00:12:38,228
Speaker 7: These guys are not going to allow you to get

293
00:12:38,228 --> 00:12:38,908
Speaker 7: any yards.

294
00:12:39,028 --> 00:12:40,428
Speaker 4: Where were they missing last year?

295
00:12:40,508 --> 00:12:42,508
Speaker 7: Last year, even though they still won the division, even

296
00:12:42,548 --> 00:12:44,788
Speaker 7: though they were ten and seven, they were still missing

297
00:12:44,868 --> 00:12:46,108
Speaker 7: their offensive pieces.

298
00:12:46,228 --> 00:12:48,428
Speaker 4: C J. Strauld can't do it by himself.

299
00:12:48,628 --> 00:12:52,668
Speaker 7: Nico Collins got hurt, You got Tank Dale got hurt.

300
00:12:52,708 --> 00:12:54,748
Speaker 4: Stefan Diggs got hurt.

301
00:12:54,788 --> 00:12:57,068
Speaker 7: All his receivers, not his number one, not only his

302
00:12:57,148 --> 00:12:58,468
Speaker 7: number two, but his number three.

303
00:12:58,548 --> 00:13:00,468
Speaker 4: All three of them were taking off the map.

304
00:13:00,548 --> 00:13:03,188
Speaker 7: They all came back at some point except for Stefan Diggs.

305
00:13:03,348 --> 00:13:05,788
Speaker 4: But this dude didn't have his weapons. So what do

306
00:13:05,868 --> 00:13:06,628
Speaker 4: they do this year?

307
00:13:06,748 --> 00:13:08,428
Speaker 7: This year, they said, no, no, no, we're not going

308
00:13:08,468 --> 00:13:10,348
Speaker 7: to run into that problem anymore. Let's go out there

309
00:13:10,348 --> 00:13:12,148
Speaker 7: and just throw a bunch of guys into the into

310
00:13:12,148 --> 00:13:14,268
Speaker 7: the receiver room. So not only does Tank Dale come

311
00:13:14,308 --> 00:13:16,668
Speaker 7: in back healthy, not only do we have Nico Collins,

312
00:13:16,668 --> 00:13:18,628
Speaker 7: but we went out there and got Christian Kirk. Okay,

313
00:13:18,668 --> 00:13:21,028
Speaker 7: we went ahead and solidified the offensive line to make

314
00:13:21,028 --> 00:13:23,068
Speaker 7: sure that he destreu is not looking over his shoulder

315
00:13:23,628 --> 00:13:25,348
Speaker 7: every single play, and I ended up on his back.

316
00:13:25,508 --> 00:13:27,988
Speaker 7: These guys have a bunch of weapons at the receiver position.

317
00:13:28,108 --> 00:13:30,428
Speaker 7: They're giving him time at the QB position now with

318
00:13:30,508 --> 00:13:32,948
Speaker 7: the offensive line that can protect him, and the defense

319
00:13:32,988 --> 00:13:35,508
Speaker 7: is going to continue to do what they do. Only

320
00:13:35,548 --> 00:13:37,508
Speaker 7: team that can say that won the division and is

321
00:13:37,548 --> 00:13:38,428
Speaker 7: going to get better.

322
00:13:40,028 --> 00:13:43,428
Speaker 6: I'm just I'm just listening. I'm with him on everything.

323
00:13:43,508 --> 00:13:45,748
Speaker 1: But I found something consistent because you talked about this

324
00:13:45,788 --> 00:13:47,628
Speaker 1: with the Cowboys, and you talked about this.

325
00:13:48,108 --> 00:13:50,068
Speaker 4: You just like everything in Texas, don't you.

326
00:13:50,268 --> 00:13:52,828
Speaker 1: But listen he said on the Cowboys said to Texas,

327
00:13:53,188 --> 00:13:56,308
Speaker 1: he referred to remember this. He said that what happened

328
00:13:56,348 --> 00:13:58,588
Speaker 1: to Dallas, they were hurt injured. What did he say

329
00:13:58,628 --> 00:14:01,828
Speaker 1: about the Texas hurt injured? We all know injuries is

330
00:14:01,988 --> 00:14:03,588
Speaker 1: part of the game.

331
00:14:03,748 --> 00:14:07,628
Speaker 7: So I don't know absolutely right, But what hurt them

332
00:14:07,708 --> 00:14:10,068
Speaker 7: last year was the receivers being hurt. Right, the receivers

333
00:14:10,068 --> 00:14:12,548
Speaker 7: are all, yeah, I give you so. So now they

334
00:14:12,588 --> 00:14:14,308
Speaker 7: went out there and fixed that problem. Not only are

335
00:14:14,348 --> 00:14:16,148
Speaker 7: to bring their guys back. They picked up Christian Kirk,

336
00:14:16,228 --> 00:14:18,828
Speaker 7: they picked up Braxon Barriers, they picked up Justin Watson.

337
00:14:18,588 --> 00:14:21,028
Speaker 4: They picked up all these guys. They picked up like

338
00:14:21,068 --> 00:14:22,068
Speaker 4: four more receivers.

339
00:14:22,188 --> 00:14:24,668
Speaker 7: So just in case are one and two go down,

340
00:14:24,708 --> 00:14:26,188
Speaker 7: we have some other guys that we can lean on.

341
00:14:26,388 --> 00:14:29,148
Speaker 7: They learned from their mistakes, they replenished their their goods,

342
00:14:29,228 --> 00:14:30,588
Speaker 7: and they're getting ready to go out there and take

343
00:14:30,588 --> 00:14:30,748
Speaker 7: it on.

344
00:14:30,948 --> 00:14:31,628
Speaker 4: I don't think C. J.

345
00:14:31,708 --> 00:14:34,428
Speaker 8: Stroud had the jump that we all anticipated from his

346
00:14:34,508 --> 00:14:36,748
Speaker 8: rookie year, so I can see if he can get

347
00:14:36,748 --> 00:14:39,508
Speaker 8: back to his rookie year magic and make that that progression.

348
00:14:39,708 --> 00:14:40,628
Speaker 8: I like Houston, I do.

349
00:14:40,708 --> 00:14:40,948
Speaker 4: I do.

350
00:14:40,988 --> 00:14:43,628
Speaker 8: I think they're a complete team offense, defense, and special teams.

351
00:14:43,708 --> 00:14:45,748
Speaker 8: They did lose Laramie Tunsel, who's been one of the

352
00:14:45,748 --> 00:14:48,388
Speaker 8: best left tackles over the last decade. They brought An

353
00:14:48,508 --> 00:14:51,628
Speaker 8: Robinson and Trent Brown as well, so added some more

354
00:14:51,828 --> 00:14:54,268
Speaker 8: to solidify that O line. I like Houston, I do.

355
00:14:54,628 --> 00:14:57,108
Speaker 8: It all comes down to CJ. Stroud and his progression.

356
00:14:57,188 --> 00:15:00,228
Speaker 1: And they drafted two wide receivers out of the same college,

357
00:15:00,228 --> 00:15:00,668
Speaker 1: didn't they.

358
00:15:00,988 --> 00:15:02,508
Speaker 6: I believe Texas didn't they.

359
00:15:02,588 --> 00:15:05,388
Speaker 4: I think of Jaydon Higgins. Yeah, yeah, they pick they

360
00:15:05,428 --> 00:15:06,748
Speaker 4: pick us? Yeah, absolutely, they.

361
00:15:06,708 --> 00:15:08,468
Speaker 6: Do look good. I'm a fan. I'm a fan. I

362
00:15:08,508 --> 00:15:08,788
Speaker 6: really do.

363
00:15:08,868 --> 00:15:11,948
Speaker 1: The late defense run the ball, and they got in

364
00:15:11,948 --> 00:15:12,868
Speaker 1: a smooth quarterback.

365
00:15:12,988 --> 00:15:14,268
Speaker 4: Like you said something about running the ball.

366
00:15:14,388 --> 00:15:15,108
Speaker 6: Yeah, they run it.

367
00:15:15,268 --> 00:15:19,388
Speaker 4: Who's there running back again? Oh man?

368
00:15:19,148 --> 00:15:22,108
Speaker 7: And so when mixing goes out, us comes to a

369
00:15:22,268 --> 00:15:23,908
Speaker 7: running that's that's crazy.

370
00:15:23,588 --> 00:15:24,828
Speaker 6: That's heavy.

371
00:15:25,348 --> 00:15:28,108
Speaker 3: Like what we've seen from the combination of Demico and

372
00:15:28,188 --> 00:15:31,828
Speaker 3: CJ together as a head coach, QB has been really

373
00:15:31,868 --> 00:15:32,708
Speaker 3: really exciting to see.

374
00:15:32,748 --> 00:15:35,068
Speaker 2: I do want to feel bigger jump. I think it'll happen.

375
00:15:35,268 --> 00:15:38,548
Speaker 3: Our guys, Today is Olympic Day. We will have two

376
00:15:38,708 --> 00:15:41,548
Speaker 3: of the best women's flag football players in the world,

377
00:15:42,548 --> 00:15:44,468
Speaker 3: Isy Drazy and Cody Fuller.

378
00:15:44,708 --> 00:15:45,908
Speaker 2: They're going to be right here in.

379
00:15:45,908 --> 00:15:51,268
Speaker 7: The stud plus Bill Ben Johnson bring to Caleb Williams

380
00:15:51,348 --> 00:15:53,148
Speaker 7: in the Bears offense, we'll get into.

381
00:15:53,188 --> 00:15:55,268
Speaker 4: It is GMFB on a Monday.

382
00:15:55,668 --> 00:15:57,428
Speaker 2: Let's go now, you guys know whatifs?

383
00:15:58,148 --> 00:15:58,348
Speaker 9: Mom?

384
00:16:00,308 --> 00:16:00,908
Speaker 1: Who is?

385
00:16:01,348 --> 00:16:11,268
Speaker 6: Who is? Good morning?

386
00:16:12,988 --> 00:16:15,708
Speaker 3: All right, welcome back everybody, and a couple of topics

387
00:16:15,708 --> 00:16:17,948
Speaker 3: here that we have to unpacked.

388
00:16:18,108 --> 00:16:19,148
Speaker 2: We're going to go for two.

389
00:16:19,468 --> 00:16:22,708
Speaker 3: And the first Fanatics Boundfest was last week and Bears

390
00:16:22,788 --> 00:16:25,628
Speaker 3: quarterback Taylor Williams had this to say about his new

391
00:16:25,628 --> 00:16:26,148
Speaker 3: head coach.

392
00:16:27,148 --> 00:16:29,828
Speaker 6: It's been awesome Ben Johnson. Uh.

393
00:16:29,908 --> 00:16:33,188
Speaker 10: He uses some choice words every day towards me, but

394
00:16:33,188 --> 00:16:35,348
Speaker 10: he's tough and I I love him.

395
00:16:35,348 --> 00:16:35,788
Speaker 4: He's awesome.

396
00:16:35,828 --> 00:16:37,868
Speaker 6: It's it's been great being around and we hang out.

397
00:16:38,428 --> 00:16:40,188
Speaker 10: In his office and we just, you know, we we

398
00:16:40,188 --> 00:16:41,908
Speaker 10: we have lunch sometimes and things like that.

399
00:16:41,948 --> 00:16:43,548
Speaker 6: We just you know, building this bond.

400
00:16:43,268 --> 00:16:46,348
Speaker 10: And relationship to to be able to last a while.

401
00:16:46,748 --> 00:16:48,908
Speaker 10: And so uh and I know Bears fans you know,

402
00:16:48,988 --> 00:16:51,908
Speaker 10: it's it's it's year after year typically or every other

403
00:16:51,988 --> 00:16:55,668
Speaker 10: year where where the Bears where uh you know, coaches

404
00:16:55,708 --> 00:16:59,388
Speaker 10: and in quarterbacks specifically are our in and out and

405
00:16:59,428 --> 00:17:00,828
Speaker 10: our goal is to be here for a while.

406
00:17:00,908 --> 00:17:02,268
Speaker 6: So we've been building this.

407
00:17:02,228 --> 00:17:04,148
Speaker 1: Bond and relationship and you know it's been going.

408
00:17:04,148 --> 00:17:07,828
Speaker 3: Well, let's start with our former to be I hate

409
00:17:07,828 --> 00:17:09,548
Speaker 3: the same former because that's our too. Me right here,

410
00:17:09,748 --> 00:17:14,788
Speaker 3: good Isaiah. What will the difference be with Ben Johnson

411
00:17:15,108 --> 00:17:18,108
Speaker 3: For Caleb Williams. I want something tangible that when it happens,

412
00:17:18,148 --> 00:17:19,268
Speaker 3: we're gonna be like, Okay, that's it.

413
00:17:19,508 --> 00:17:21,108
Speaker 2: That's the Ben Johnson Differently.

414
00:17:20,788 --> 00:17:22,548
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's two things that I'm going to be looking for.

415
00:17:22,628 --> 00:17:24,788
Speaker 7: The first thing is going to be you know, it's

416
00:17:24,828 --> 00:17:26,828
Speaker 7: going to be his command at the line of scrimmage

417
00:17:26,868 --> 00:17:28,308
Speaker 7: right to your arm, you understand im potine that is

418
00:17:28,308 --> 00:17:30,468
Speaker 7: as the offensive liignment. I think that last year he

419
00:17:30,548 --> 00:17:32,748
Speaker 7: was out there running around just trying to make things happen,

420
00:17:32,788 --> 00:17:35,708
Speaker 7: even though in my eyes he had success twenty touchdowns,

421
00:17:35,708 --> 00:17:38,668
Speaker 7: twenty six interceptions, sixty two percent on the completion. But

422
00:17:38,748 --> 00:17:41,348
Speaker 7: I think that the confidence that Ben Johnson is going

423
00:17:41,388 --> 00:17:44,148
Speaker 7: to instill in him, I think the demand of the

424
00:17:44,708 --> 00:17:47,148
Speaker 7: requirements that he's going to ask of him to step

425
00:17:47,188 --> 00:17:49,988
Speaker 7: to the line of scrimmage, command the offensive line, really

426
00:17:49,988 --> 00:17:52,188
Speaker 7: be able to be in tune with what the defense

427
00:17:52,268 --> 00:17:53,428
Speaker 7: is doing, to be able to put your team in

428
00:17:53,468 --> 00:17:54,588
Speaker 7: the best position possible.

429
00:17:54,668 --> 00:17:55,508
Speaker 4: I think you're going to see a.

430
00:17:55,508 --> 00:17:58,588
Speaker 7: Completely different aura of Caleb Williams step into the line

431
00:17:58,588 --> 00:18:01,028
Speaker 7: of scrimmage and being comfortable and confident. And then the

432
00:18:01,108 --> 00:18:03,428
Speaker 7: second part is because he's going to be comfortable and

433
00:18:03,428 --> 00:18:05,388
Speaker 7: confident and be able to come unicate properly to all

434
00:18:05,388 --> 00:18:07,708
Speaker 7: his teammates. Now you're going to see different type of

435
00:18:07,748 --> 00:18:10,108
Speaker 7: body language out of him. Last year, the body language

436
00:18:10,108 --> 00:18:11,948
Speaker 7: as we saw to him, he was all over the place, right.

437
00:18:12,028 --> 00:18:14,148
Speaker 7: He hadn't really matured in that area. I don't think

438
00:18:14,188 --> 00:18:17,388
Speaker 7: he truly understands the impact that even though nothing might

439
00:18:17,388 --> 00:18:19,748
Speaker 7: come out of your mouth, what you see on your face,

440
00:18:19,908 --> 00:18:22,308
Speaker 7: how you walk around, your teammates are watching you.

441
00:18:22,588 --> 00:18:23,708
Speaker 4: As the quarterback of.

442
00:18:23,668 --> 00:18:27,228
Speaker 7: An organization, not just a college of an organization, everybody's

443
00:18:27,228 --> 00:18:29,468
Speaker 7: watching everything that you do. So I think by him

444
00:18:29,468 --> 00:18:32,068
Speaker 7: taking more command, getting up there controlling everything, I think

445
00:18:32,108 --> 00:18:34,668
Speaker 7: he will take on the more leadership role that will

446
00:18:34,748 --> 00:18:36,228
Speaker 7: impact every aspect of his game.

447
00:18:37,068 --> 00:18:38,788
Speaker 1: Yeah, and if you look at him, man, I tell

448
00:18:38,868 --> 00:18:41,628
Speaker 1: you they're stacked over there with the Bears. But they

449
00:18:41,668 --> 00:18:44,748
Speaker 1: got three really good wide receivers, two good tight is,

450
00:18:44,828 --> 00:18:48,668
Speaker 1: two good running backs, great defense you're bringing over with Johnson,

451
00:18:48,788 --> 00:18:50,908
Speaker 1: who we understand him is to be.

452
00:18:51,468 --> 00:18:53,188
Speaker 6: I think everybody's kind of looking for that.

453
00:18:53,348 --> 00:18:58,388
Speaker 1: Young kind of vocal guru, that Sean McVay, that youngster.

454
00:18:58,588 --> 00:19:00,908
Speaker 1: I think Johnson is one of those guys. It's like, hey,

455
00:19:00,948 --> 00:19:01,428
Speaker 1: who is he?

456
00:19:01,948 --> 00:19:02,428
Speaker 6: What is he?

457
00:19:02,828 --> 00:19:02,988
Speaker 4: Does?

458
00:19:02,988 --> 00:19:05,348
Speaker 1: He understand the quarterback position in that well, and I

459
00:19:05,388 --> 00:19:08,548
Speaker 1: think it's going to help Williams majorly having him in

460
00:19:08,548 --> 00:19:11,308
Speaker 1: a position. But the thing they have to get over

461
00:19:11,908 --> 00:19:15,148
Speaker 1: right is presence in the pocket. I think that's gonna

462
00:19:15,148 --> 00:19:17,348
Speaker 1: be the biggest thing for him. We know he can move,

463
00:19:17,428 --> 00:19:20,188
Speaker 1: he can shuffle, he can extend plays. But they brought

464
00:19:20,228 --> 00:19:23,228
Speaker 1: over three Pro Bowler offensive lineman. I mean they are

465
00:19:23,308 --> 00:19:25,108
Speaker 1: draft You talk about the Texans making a lot of

466
00:19:25,148 --> 00:19:27,828
Speaker 1: moves for their quarterback and for their franchise. The Bears

467
00:19:27,868 --> 00:19:29,668
Speaker 1: did the same thing this year, So they gonna be

468
00:19:29,708 --> 00:19:32,748
Speaker 1: They're gonna be tough in that division. I believe it's

469
00:19:32,828 --> 00:19:33,348
Speaker 1: kind of open.

470
00:19:34,268 --> 00:19:36,468
Speaker 8: I agree with you with the Bears being being a

471
00:19:36,508 --> 00:19:39,788
Speaker 8: stacked team. I am really optimistic about the Bears' future.

472
00:19:39,988 --> 00:19:42,868
Speaker 8: I am the coaching changes that they brought in, not

473
00:19:42,988 --> 00:19:45,668
Speaker 8: only Ben Johnson, but to speak on Ben Johnson and

474
00:19:45,748 --> 00:19:49,388
Speaker 8: what he built in Detroit under Dan Campbell. The identity,

475
00:19:49,668 --> 00:19:51,708
Speaker 8: that's what I didn't really see from the Chicago Bears

476
00:19:51,748 --> 00:19:54,988
Speaker 8: last year. I didn't really see a structure or an identity.

477
00:19:55,548 --> 00:19:57,348
Speaker 8: They're going to have that. They're going to have an identity.

478
00:19:57,348 --> 00:19:58,628
Speaker 8: They're going to have a way that they want to

479
00:19:58,628 --> 00:19:59,948
Speaker 8: play the football game.

480
00:19:59,788 --> 00:20:02,348
Speaker 4: And that's physical, as fast and decisive.

481
00:20:02,708 --> 00:20:05,508
Speaker 8: So his his pocket awareness and what he's able to

482
00:20:05,548 --> 00:20:08,548
Speaker 8: do in the pocket, Ben Johnson will definitely that'll be

483
00:20:08,588 --> 00:20:11,508
Speaker 8: the biggest point of emphasis him to have that time

484
00:20:12,028 --> 00:20:15,228
Speaker 8: to be on time and on target within the offense.

485
00:20:15,428 --> 00:20:17,868
Speaker 8: But they bring in Dan Rochar to coach office line

486
00:20:17,868 --> 00:20:19,988
Speaker 8: with the additions that they that they brought in is

487
00:20:20,108 --> 00:20:24,308
Speaker 8: Joe Tony Jonah Jackson. They bring in Dennis Allen defensively

488
00:20:24,468 --> 00:20:26,348
Speaker 8: as well, and what he did in New Orleans when

489
00:20:26,388 --> 00:20:30,028
Speaker 8: we were there together top five defense five years in

490
00:20:30,068 --> 00:20:33,388
Speaker 8: a row. I'm really really optimistic about Chicago Bears.

491
00:20:33,428 --> 00:20:33,628
Speaker 1: Man.

492
00:20:33,668 --> 00:20:37,388
Speaker 3: I just want to see it come together because a

493
00:20:37,548 --> 00:20:39,588
Speaker 3: year after year. We see it on paper and first

494
00:20:39,668 --> 00:20:41,428
Speaker 3: round picks and all of this stuff, but it never

495
00:20:41,828 --> 00:20:44,188
Speaker 3: translates to the field the way that we expected to.

496
00:20:44,308 --> 00:20:46,428
Speaker 3: So hoping that all of these things you guys are

497
00:20:46,468 --> 00:20:48,868
Speaker 3: saying is what actually results on the field.

498
00:20:48,868 --> 00:20:50,508
Speaker 2: I know the Bears fans do too, all right.

499
00:20:50,508 --> 00:20:53,348
Speaker 3: For our second topic, we'll move to the steel City Steelers.

500
00:20:53,428 --> 00:20:56,068
Speaker 3: Cornerback Darius Slay had this to say about his new.

501
00:20:56,028 --> 00:21:00,748
Speaker 2: Cornerback Turn Rocks quote. I think he is a great.

502
00:21:00,548 --> 00:21:02,788
Speaker 3: Addition because the fact that we got a younger guy

503
00:21:02,828 --> 00:21:04,348
Speaker 3: that got drafted from Ohio State.

504
00:21:04,548 --> 00:21:07,228
Speaker 2: He can train him and help him get to where.

505
00:21:07,068 --> 00:21:09,868
Speaker 3: He's at, bringing DK Metcalf along. So he doesn't have

506
00:21:09,948 --> 00:21:12,428
Speaker 3: to actually find him a true number one receiver. He's

507
00:21:12,468 --> 00:21:15,388
Speaker 3: got one that's right here and that's ready to go.

508
00:21:15,948 --> 00:21:20,548
Speaker 2: It's going to be fun talk about a lot.

509
00:21:20,428 --> 00:21:24,308
Speaker 3: Of other people and not Rogers. Interesting anyway, I'm going

510
00:21:24,348 --> 00:21:27,908
Speaker 3: too deep perfect exam So even if Rogers isn't what

511
00:21:27,988 --> 00:21:30,708
Speaker 3: he used to be, he still has that MVP mind.

512
00:21:30,708 --> 00:21:32,828
Speaker 3: So what does the addition of Aaron Rodgers do for

513
00:21:32,908 --> 00:21:34,548
Speaker 3: the Steelers as a whole idea?

514
00:21:35,348 --> 00:21:37,428
Speaker 7: I think it gives them about a confidence stepping on

515
00:21:37,428 --> 00:21:39,308
Speaker 7: the field. The last thing that you want to do

516
00:21:39,388 --> 00:21:41,588
Speaker 7: as a team is step on the field and not

517
00:21:41,628 --> 00:21:43,308
Speaker 7: have a QB one that you feel like you can

518
00:21:43,308 --> 00:21:46,348
Speaker 7: get behind. You know, I know, I played quarterback. I

519
00:21:46,428 --> 00:21:48,908
Speaker 7: play receipt ton of receiver in the league. When you

520
00:21:48,948 --> 00:21:50,668
Speaker 7: step out there, you need to know that that person

521
00:21:50,908 --> 00:21:52,988
Speaker 7: has it under control. You need to know that whatever

522
00:21:53,028 --> 00:21:55,548
Speaker 7: you're about to face when you break this huddle, that

523
00:21:55,588 --> 00:21:57,948
Speaker 7: he has an answer for it, whether that's in the

524
00:21:57,988 --> 00:22:00,228
Speaker 7: running game or the passing game, whether it's taking a

525
00:22:00,268 --> 00:22:01,908
Speaker 7: time out to get you out of a bad situation.

526
00:22:02,148 --> 00:22:04,788
Speaker 7: And I think that's the one question that he answers

527
00:22:04,788 --> 00:22:06,668
Speaker 7: for them. Yes, we could talk about his arm talent,

528
00:22:06,788 --> 00:22:08,588
Speaker 7: Yes we could talk about the receivers that he has

529
00:22:08,588 --> 00:22:10,228
Speaker 7: and everything else around him, but at the end of

530
00:22:10,268 --> 00:22:12,908
Speaker 7: the day, he is responsible for making sure that they

531
00:22:12,908 --> 00:22:14,948
Speaker 7: are in a positive place. And I don't think there's

532
00:22:14,988 --> 00:22:18,468
Speaker 7: any other quarterback outside of the Patrick Mahomes, you know,

533
00:22:18,508 --> 00:22:20,548
Speaker 7: the Josh Allen that you can step to the line

534
00:22:20,548 --> 00:22:21,868
Speaker 7: of scrimmage with and be like, you know what, I'm

535
00:22:21,868 --> 00:22:24,228
Speaker 7: one hundred percent confident that everything that's going to be

536
00:22:24,228 --> 00:22:25,988
Speaker 7: thrown at us, he's seen and we're going to be

537
00:22:26,028 --> 00:22:27,668
Speaker 7: in a positive position when his boss snapped.

538
00:22:28,028 --> 00:22:30,108
Speaker 6: You know, you talk about the MVP mind.

539
00:22:31,348 --> 00:22:34,228
Speaker 1: I don't think that's doing any good, you know, straight up,

540
00:22:34,308 --> 00:22:37,628
Speaker 1: because the we're talking about minds, right, if the minds

541
00:22:37,668 --> 00:22:40,668
Speaker 1: could throw a football, I mean, Tom Brady would.

542
00:22:40,508 --> 00:22:41,148
Speaker 6: Have never retired.

543
00:22:41,428 --> 00:22:44,748
Speaker 1: You know, you got Peyton Manny five MVPs. He never

544
00:22:44,748 --> 00:22:47,068
Speaker 1: would have retired if it was a mind throwing the football. Heck,

545
00:22:47,188 --> 00:22:49,828
Speaker 1: I might be able to throw that thing a little bit, so.

546
00:22:50,588 --> 00:22:53,188
Speaker 6: My mind can work. But it's about being physical.

547
00:22:53,388 --> 00:22:55,428
Speaker 1: It's about being out there, being with your.

548
00:22:55,348 --> 00:22:58,388
Speaker 6: Team in the cold, in the heat, in the hot tub.

549
00:22:58,508 --> 00:23:01,868
Speaker 1: All of these physical things are the reasons. Now, yes,

550
00:23:01,948 --> 00:23:04,668
Speaker 1: he will bring an enthusi and an energy to the

551
00:23:04,708 --> 00:23:07,908
Speaker 1: franchise at the organization because you think we got somebody

552
00:23:07,948 --> 00:23:11,028
Speaker 1: in here that can sling the rock. Understood, But you

553
00:23:11,108 --> 00:23:14,708
Speaker 1: got to remember last year he had a worse completion

554
00:23:14,908 --> 00:23:17,988
Speaker 1: percentage than mac Jones. Like these are I didn't make

555
00:23:18,028 --> 00:23:19,988
Speaker 1: these things up, these things that is on the internet,

556
00:23:20,388 --> 00:23:20,588
Speaker 1: you know.

557
00:23:20,828 --> 00:23:24,228
Speaker 6: And so with that in mind, no, I don't add And.

558
00:23:24,148 --> 00:23:26,188
Speaker 1: I got a question for y'all, which one do y'all

559
00:23:26,188 --> 00:23:27,708
Speaker 1: think is more realistic to happen?

560
00:23:27,748 --> 00:23:28,068
Speaker 6: Truly?

561
00:23:28,268 --> 00:23:30,828
Speaker 1: Just one or two yes or no. I don't know

562
00:23:30,868 --> 00:23:33,468
Speaker 1: what y'all can go with. But what is more realistic

563
00:23:33,508 --> 00:23:36,948
Speaker 1: to happen Aaron Rodgers some point in the season showing

564
00:23:37,028 --> 00:23:39,908
Speaker 1: up on Joe Rogan or Pat McAfee shout out to

565
00:23:39,948 --> 00:23:42,668
Speaker 1: both of them love those shows and announcing a retirement,

566
00:23:43,668 --> 00:23:48,428
Speaker 1: or him winning a playoff game with the Steelers. Which

567
00:23:48,428 --> 00:23:49,668
Speaker 1: one is more likely to happen.

568
00:23:50,668 --> 00:23:54,628
Speaker 8: I would say a playoff game winning, okay?

569
00:23:55,148 --> 00:23:55,828
Speaker 4: And the reason.

570
00:23:57,668 --> 00:23:59,508
Speaker 6: I just want to see what?

571
00:23:59,868 --> 00:24:00,068
Speaker 4: Yeah?

572
00:24:00,068 --> 00:24:02,388
Speaker 7: No, So I don't one thing about Aaron Rodgers is

573
00:24:02,388 --> 00:24:04,628
Speaker 7: once he's committed, I don't question his commitment of it.

574
00:24:05,268 --> 00:24:08,028
Speaker 7: Once he's made his decision right, however long that might be.

575
00:24:08,268 --> 00:24:10,308
Speaker 7: We know that once he decides that he's locked in,

576
00:24:10,548 --> 00:24:12,388
Speaker 7: he's locked in. And you also know that when Aaron

577
00:24:12,428 --> 00:24:14,108
Speaker 7: Rodgers steps in a room or steps on the field,

578
00:24:14,108 --> 00:24:17,108
Speaker 7: that he has to command and the confidence of his teammates.

579
00:24:17,228 --> 00:24:19,468
Speaker 7: I don't think anybody's ever questioned that about Aaron Rodgers.

580
00:24:19,508 --> 00:24:20,988
Speaker 7: There's a lot of things you can question about him,

581
00:24:21,028 --> 00:24:21,628
Speaker 7: but I don't think.

582
00:24:21,508 --> 00:24:24,748
Speaker 4: You can ever question is he prepared? Oh yeah, prepared?

583
00:24:25,028 --> 00:24:26,668
Speaker 7: Is he going to put his guys in the best

584
00:24:26,708 --> 00:24:27,508
Speaker 7: position possible?

585
00:24:27,788 --> 00:24:28,588
Speaker 4: And can he deliver?

586
00:24:28,868 --> 00:24:30,508
Speaker 7: I don't think there's ever been a question about any

587
00:24:30,508 --> 00:24:32,388
Speaker 7: of those things about Aaron Rodgers, and I think that

588
00:24:32,668 --> 00:24:34,108
Speaker 7: is why this team is going to be so much

589
00:24:34,148 --> 00:24:36,748
Speaker 7: more competent. Now, do they have enough talent? That's where

590
00:24:36,788 --> 00:24:38,828
Speaker 7: my questions lie. But in terms of Aaron Rodgers and

591
00:24:38,868 --> 00:24:40,748
Speaker 7: his contributionships, I don't have any questions that he's going

592
00:24:40,788 --> 00:24:42,908
Speaker 7: to be of your greatest value to this organization.

593
00:24:43,268 --> 00:24:46,108
Speaker 8: For me is what the stealers are acting Aaron Rodgers

594
00:24:46,108 --> 00:24:48,628
Speaker 8: to do. If they're asking him to be MVP Green

595
00:24:48,628 --> 00:24:50,868
Speaker 8: Bay Packers, Aaron Rodgers, we don't see it.

596
00:24:50,908 --> 00:24:51,508
Speaker 4: I don't see that.

597
00:24:51,588 --> 00:24:51,948
Speaker 6: I don't.

598
00:24:52,188 --> 00:24:54,468
Speaker 8: But if they're asking him to manage the game, to

599
00:24:55,668 --> 00:24:58,308
Speaker 8: convert third downs to score touchdowns in the red zone,

600
00:24:58,468 --> 00:25:01,068
Speaker 8: the Stellers can be dangerous because this is a defensive team.

601
00:25:01,388 --> 00:25:05,108
Speaker 8: You talked about the Cowboys defense and the optimism. That's different.

602
00:25:05,148 --> 00:25:07,788
Speaker 8: This is a real system, you know what I mean?

603
00:25:07,828 --> 00:25:11,428
Speaker 8: This defense in Pittsburgh. They get turnovers, they get off

604
00:25:11,468 --> 00:25:11,908
Speaker 8: the field.

605
00:25:11,988 --> 00:25:14,508
Speaker 4: TJ. Watt, hot Smith rushing off the edge.

606
00:25:14,748 --> 00:25:18,948
Speaker 8: Cam Hayward is in year whatever and he's still dominant

607
00:25:19,308 --> 00:25:21,828
Speaker 8: year after year. Minka Fitzpatrick. Those guys can get the

608
00:25:21,828 --> 00:25:23,588
Speaker 8: ball back to Aaron Rodgers, so he's going to have

609
00:25:23,668 --> 00:25:28,228
Speaker 8: a lot more opportunities to create plays and create touchdowns.

610
00:25:28,708 --> 00:25:31,228
Speaker 8: I would bring up Drew Brees and at the end

611
00:25:31,228 --> 00:25:35,748
Speaker 8: of his career, his lack of physicality with his shoulder,

612
00:25:35,868 --> 00:25:38,068
Speaker 8: he wasn't able to throw the ball, throw the ball

613
00:25:38,108 --> 00:25:41,188
Speaker 8: forty fifty yards down the field, but mentally what he

614
00:25:41,228 --> 00:25:44,148
Speaker 8: was able to do pre snap and his diagnosis of everything.

615
00:25:44,948 --> 00:25:48,348
Speaker 8: Drew converted third downs at a higher clip than anybody

616
00:25:48,628 --> 00:25:51,348
Speaker 8: in NFL history, and he scored touchdowns in the red zone.

617
00:25:51,508 --> 00:25:54,748
Speaker 8: So we were able to go far at twenty eighteen, twenty, nineteen,

618
00:25:54,828 --> 00:25:57,748
Speaker 8: twenty twenty, even though Drew his physicality was declining.

619
00:25:58,028 --> 00:26:01,148
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think Aaron Rodgers, without a doubt, he's a

620
00:26:01,148 --> 00:26:01,668
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer.

621
00:26:01,748 --> 00:26:03,908
Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, he's one of the best quarterbacks we've seen

622
00:26:03,948 --> 00:26:04,388
Speaker 6: play the game.

623
00:26:04,708 --> 00:26:08,388
Speaker 1: It's just that at this juncture in his career, you

624
00:26:08,548 --> 00:26:11,148
Speaker 1: just don't know what you're gonna get, and that's a

625
00:26:11,228 --> 00:26:12,788
Speaker 1: hard thing to hang your head on.

626
00:26:13,428 --> 00:26:15,908
Speaker 6: Is a hope and you're.

627
00:26:15,708 --> 00:26:17,868
Speaker 1: Not going into But I think if he's taking a

628
00:26:17,948 --> 00:26:20,908
Speaker 1: role locker room guy, you know, wanted to develop the

629
00:26:20,988 --> 00:26:23,948
Speaker 1: quarterbacks behind him, pushing the ball down the field. Yeah,

630
00:26:24,028 --> 00:26:26,228
Speaker 1: I mean the Steelers are they made the playoffs every

631
00:26:26,308 --> 00:26:29,228
Speaker 1: year without a quarterback being there, right, So yeah, he

632
00:26:29,308 --> 00:26:31,748
Speaker 1: adds value for sure, But just the mind of it,

633
00:26:31,788 --> 00:26:33,308
Speaker 1: I don't think matters at this point's.

634
00:26:33,068 --> 00:26:33,748
Speaker 6: Going to be filled.

635
00:26:33,788 --> 00:26:35,548
Speaker 2: It goes back to the mind, doesn't it churn?

636
00:26:36,228 --> 00:26:38,588
Speaker 3: But I will say I think last year was so

637
00:26:38,668 --> 00:26:39,948
Speaker 3: abysmal for Rogers.

638
00:26:39,988 --> 00:26:40,988
Speaker 2: He's like, can't go out like that?

639
00:26:41,308 --> 00:26:41,708
Speaker 4: I agree.

640
00:26:41,828 --> 00:26:45,348
Speaker 3: Now there's if ever there was a boulder on his shoulder?

641
00:26:46,188 --> 00:26:49,188
Speaker 3: Is there now for charge? In Miami, Jalen Ramsey and

642
00:26:49,228 --> 00:26:51,748
Speaker 3: the Dolphins have been trying to work out a trade

643
00:26:51,748 --> 00:26:54,788
Speaker 3: for the cornerback, but wide receiver Tyreek Hill says if

644
00:26:54,788 --> 00:26:58,108
Speaker 3: he had it his way, Ramsey would stay in South Florida.

645
00:26:58,468 --> 00:27:00,788
Speaker 3: Ramsey is saying at fanatics Best over the weekend that

646
00:27:00,908 --> 00:27:03,108
Speaker 3: he's gonna put the full court press on Ramsey to

647
00:27:03,148 --> 00:27:06,348
Speaker 3: try and keep him an adult this Jersey Hill also

648
00:27:06,388 --> 00:27:09,508
Speaker 3: saying Ramsey is a great teammate and leader Addie quote,

649
00:27:09,548 --> 00:27:12,908
Speaker 3: who's just need him on the Dolphins. Panther is running

650
00:27:12,948 --> 00:27:15,908
Speaker 3: back to the Hubbard tells ESPN dot Com he wants

651
00:27:15,908 --> 00:27:18,388
Speaker 3: to play for Canada's flag football team at a twenty

652
00:27:18,468 --> 00:27:23,148
Speaker 3: twenty eight Olympic game. Hubbard, who is from Edmondson, Alberta, Canada, says, quote,

653
00:27:23,268 --> 00:27:25,108
Speaker 3: if they want me to become part of it, it

654
00:27:25,148 --> 00:27:28,388
Speaker 3: would be an honor. And Chiefs side end Travis Kelsey

655
00:27:28,588 --> 00:27:32,268
Speaker 3: is coming off his worst season statistically of his future

656
00:27:32,388 --> 00:27:34,948
Speaker 3: Hall of Fame career, but after re signing with Casey

657
00:27:35,068 --> 00:27:38,028
Speaker 3: this offseason, he says he's already made some adjustments to

658
00:27:38,148 --> 00:27:41,028
Speaker 3: help him get back to his all pro level of play.

659
00:27:43,188 --> 00:27:45,668
Speaker 11: I'm down some weight, yeah, from the end of the

660
00:27:45,708 --> 00:27:48,508
Speaker 11: season last year, but each year is different, man. You

661
00:27:48,588 --> 00:27:51,348
Speaker 11: got to you gotta rebuild it. And this year got

662
00:27:51,348 --> 00:27:55,188
Speaker 11: some time to really focus on some form running and

663
00:27:55,228 --> 00:27:58,548
Speaker 11: some things early on in the offseason that I just

664
00:27:59,068 --> 00:28:02,548
Speaker 11: didn't have time for last year, and certainly feeling good

665
00:28:02,548 --> 00:28:03,428
Speaker 11: and I think it'll pay off.

666
00:28:03,428 --> 00:28:03,588

00:29:50,948 --> 00:29:51,828
Speaker 2: We had a great time.

702
00:29:52,108 --> 00:29:54,028
Speaker 12: We had to come off a long flat so it

703
00:29:54,068 --> 00:29:56,468
Speaker 12: took a couple of days to get adjusted, but once

704
00:29:56,468 --> 00:29:58,428
Speaker 12: we got into it, we all have the best time,

705

Speaker 12: you know, the best in the world and some other

707
00:30:03,188 --> 00:30:03,868
Speaker 12: countries as well.

708
00:30:03,948 --> 00:30:07,668
Speaker 2: So yeah, you came from the future, we did. So.

709
00:30:07,708 --> 00:30:09,948
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely well.

710
00:30:09,948 --> 00:30:11,668
Speaker 7: I got two part questions for both of you ladies, right,

711
00:30:11,668 --> 00:30:13,268
Speaker 7: I'm going to start off with you easy first. But

712
00:30:13,628 --> 00:30:16,028
Speaker 7: what does it mean for you guys that flag is

713
00:30:16,028 --> 00:30:17,228
Speaker 7: going to be an Olympic sport?

714
00:30:17,388 --> 00:30:18,308
Speaker 4: And what would it mean?

715
00:30:18,468 --> 00:30:20,068
Speaker 7: How proud would you be for you to be able

716
00:30:20,108 --> 00:30:22,948
Speaker 7: to represent your country at the LA twenty eight Olympics.

717
00:30:23,108 --> 00:30:24,068
Speaker 2: Oh, it would be surreal.

718
00:30:24,308 --> 00:30:27,148
Speaker 9: I think every young athlete growing up wants to represent

719
00:30:27,148 --> 00:30:30,148
Speaker 9: their country in the Olympics. I never would have thought mine,

720
00:30:30,468 --> 00:30:32,828
Speaker 9: my chance or opportunity would be in flag football, but

721
00:30:32,948 --> 00:30:35,028
Speaker 9: here we are, and I'm like more than blessed to

722
00:30:35,028 --> 00:30:37,028
Speaker 9: be able to do this sport and it'd be such

723
00:30:37,028 --> 00:30:38,188
Speaker 9: an honor to represent my country.

724
00:30:38,428 --> 00:30:38,748
Speaker 6: Awesome.

725
00:30:39,548 --> 00:30:41,348
Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty much the same, I think. I mean.

726
00:30:41,388 --> 00:30:43,348
Speaker 12: Once, once the announcement came out, it kind of brought

727
00:30:43,348 --> 00:30:46,548
Speaker 12: a sense of legitimacy to our goals and aspirations, and

728
00:30:46,588 --> 00:30:50,068
Speaker 12: I think having it in LA twenty eight is huge

729
00:30:50,108 --> 00:30:52,068
Speaker 12: and it gives us something to strive towards. So it

730
00:30:52,108 --> 00:30:55,308
Speaker 12: would mean everything to be able to be on that stage.

731
00:30:55,988 --> 00:30:56,988
Speaker 4: Happy Olympic Day.

732
00:30:57,268 --> 00:31:01,708
Speaker 8: First off, ladies, How has the LA twenty eight flag

733
00:31:01,748 --> 00:31:07,708
Speaker 8: announcement created of international growth and excitement about the sport.

734
00:31:08,028 --> 00:31:11,908
Speaker 12: In Australia where flag is relatively new it's only kind

735
00:31:11,908 --> 00:31:15,428
Speaker 12: of really been around for a couple of years. It's

736
00:31:15,628 --> 00:31:19,348
Speaker 12: really put a firecracker in the sport, like everyone is

737
00:31:19,388 --> 00:31:22,068
Speaker 12: now watching, everyone's getting involved and wanting to play, our

738
00:31:22,148 --> 00:31:25,708
Speaker 12: youth programs developing and really taking off. So I think

739
00:31:25,748 --> 00:31:28,228
Speaker 12: that Olympic announcement has done big things for the sport

740
00:31:28,228 --> 00:31:28,908
Speaker 12: in Australia.

741
00:31:29,068 --> 00:31:31,228
Speaker 9: Yeah, I think same here even though flag has kind

742
00:31:31,268 --> 00:31:33,708
Speaker 9: of been here a little longer, it's really like being

743
00:31:33,708 --> 00:31:35,348
Speaker 9: put on the map and had a spotlight on it.

744
00:31:36,148 --> 00:31:38,708
Speaker 9: So I know, I think there's maybe like sixteen states

745
00:31:38,708 --> 00:31:40,828
Speaker 9: that have it sanctioned as a sport for girls flag

746
00:31:40,828 --> 00:31:43,548
Speaker 9: football and high school. So I think pushing that and

747
00:31:43,588 --> 00:31:45,028
Speaker 9: seeing that the Olympics is going to have it as

748
00:31:45,028 --> 00:31:47,788
Speaker 9: a sport is really like getting girls involved around the country.

749
00:31:47,868 --> 00:31:51,068
Speaker 1: Nice and a big part of Olympic Day is to

750
00:31:51,148 --> 00:31:55,068
Speaker 1: focus on encouraging athletes moving together, working together. And is

751
00:31:55,108 --> 00:31:58,068
Speaker 1: this something you can relate to as flag athletes And

752
00:31:58,268 --> 00:32:00,188
Speaker 1: why do you think it is important?

753
00:32:00,868 --> 00:32:01,468
Speaker 6: Go to you first?

754
00:32:01,468 --> 00:32:02,068
Speaker 4: One hundred percent.

755
00:32:02,108 --> 00:32:04,188
Speaker 9: I think it's super important just because you're getting involved

756
00:32:04,828 --> 00:32:05,988
Speaker 9: in other sports.

757
00:32:05,588 --> 00:32:06,428
Speaker 2: With other teammates.

758
00:32:06,628 --> 00:32:08,388
Speaker 9: I think, like this weekend, we saw we got to

759
00:32:08,388 --> 00:32:10,268
Speaker 9: play together, we got to practice together. So to be

760
00:32:10,268 --> 00:32:13,068
Speaker 9: able to like intermingle, especially with other countries and people

761
00:32:13,068 --> 00:32:15,548
Speaker 9: that are playing the sport in a different world almost

762
00:32:15,868 --> 00:32:17,508
Speaker 9: to kind of see how they play it, it's just

763
00:32:17,508 --> 00:32:18,668
Speaker 9: great for the sport in general.

764
00:32:18,948 --> 00:32:19,188
Speaker 4: Yeah.

765
00:32:19,788 --> 00:32:24,188
Speaker 12: Sorry, building the connections with other countries really helps, I

766
00:32:24,228 --> 00:32:26,748
Speaker 12: mean us grow the game globally, so doing things like

767
00:32:26,788 --> 00:32:30,668
Speaker 12: this where obviously we're doing international friendlies and there is

768
00:32:30,708 --> 00:32:33,228
Speaker 12: that kind of highly competitive nature that we all have,

769
00:32:33,748 --> 00:32:36,828
Speaker 12: but getting to do scrimmages and drills and things like

770
00:32:36,868 --> 00:32:39,028
Speaker 12: that kind of takes the pressure off a little bit

771
00:32:39,068 --> 00:32:42,028
Speaker 12: and helps us develop and build those relationships.

772
00:32:42,508 --> 00:32:44,868
Speaker 3: I find one of the coolest things through the NFL

773
00:32:44,908 --> 00:32:48,148
Speaker 3: games being played internationally that we start to meet the

774
00:32:48,188 --> 00:32:50,668
Speaker 3: athletes on the flag side internationally.

775
00:32:50,668 --> 00:32:52,468
Speaker 2: So I've been able to meet the women from.

776
00:32:52,468 --> 00:32:55,788
Speaker 3: Italy and Germany and it's so cool to see that

777
00:32:55,908 --> 00:32:59,428
Speaker 3: level of athleticism and Izzy you on the powerhouse Team

778
00:32:59,548 --> 00:33:02,268
Speaker 3: USA women won gold at the twenty twenty four IFAF

779
00:33:02,428 --> 00:33:05,908
Speaker 3: World Flag Championship, where you go up these women tell

780
00:33:05,988 --> 00:33:06,948
Speaker 3: us about this year's team.

781
00:33:07,108 --> 00:33:08,388
Speaker 2: Man, We're just super excited.

782
00:33:08,908 --> 00:33:11,188
Speaker 9: I feel like we kind of like have this gold

783
00:33:11,228 --> 00:33:13,508
Speaker 9: standard and that's kind of our mindset and then are

784
00:33:13,828 --> 00:33:15,868
Speaker 9: we not me mindset and we're just kind of here

785
00:33:15,868 --> 00:33:17,868
Speaker 9: to prove ourselves right is our big thing. So I'm

786
00:33:17,868 --> 00:33:19,388
Speaker 9: super excited to be able to play with these girls.

787
00:33:19,388 --> 00:33:21,788
Speaker 9: We've got a few new additions so to be able

788
00:33:21,788 --> 00:33:23,588
Speaker 9: to get them out on the field and stuff and involved.

789
00:33:23,628 --> 00:33:24,548
Speaker 2: So it's gonna be really fun.

790
00:33:24,868 --> 00:33:26,668
Speaker 4: That's so. All right, I got another two part question

791
00:33:26,708 --> 00:33:26,868
Speaker 4: for you.

792
00:33:26,908 --> 00:33:28,588
Speaker 7: Are kicking off with you, Cody, I know I got

793
00:33:28,588 --> 00:33:29,188
Speaker 7: the two partners.

794
00:33:29,788 --> 00:33:30,148
Speaker 4: We listen.

795
00:33:30,148 --> 00:33:31,948
Speaker 7: The NFL is gonna be playing is first every game

796
00:33:31,988 --> 00:33:33,628
Speaker 7: in Australia in twenty twenty six.

797
00:33:33,788 --> 00:33:34,828
Speaker 4: All right. First part of the.

798
00:33:34,788 --> 00:33:37,508
Speaker 7: Question is how much of an impact do you think

799
00:33:37,588 --> 00:33:39,308
Speaker 7: is going to have on the fandom of the fans

800
00:33:39,508 --> 00:33:40,228
Speaker 7: in Australia.

801
00:33:40,828 --> 00:33:42,708
Speaker 4: For the NFL to be playing games there, and.

802
00:33:42,628 --> 00:33:46,828
Speaker 7: Then are you excited about the potential of Flag being

803
00:33:46,828 --> 00:33:48,828
Speaker 7: an Olympic sport in Brisbane thirty two?

804
00:33:49,268 --> 00:33:49,508
Speaker 4: Yeah.

805
00:33:49,548 --> 00:33:51,788
Speaker 12: I think the NFL game coming to Australia is huge,

806
00:33:51,868 --> 00:33:54,308
Speaker 12: huge for us. I've seen the fandom kind of explode

807
00:33:54,308 --> 00:33:55,908
Speaker 12: over the last couple of years. It's on a really

808
00:33:55,948 --> 00:33:58,788
Speaker 12: good trajectory and I think having the game come out

809
00:33:58,948 --> 00:34:01,188
Speaker 12: there is going to add like even more I guess

810
00:34:01,228 --> 00:34:04,908
Speaker 12: accessibility and visibility to the game, which I think is

811
00:34:04,948 --> 00:34:07,668
Speaker 12: what we need. Everyone everyone knows about the NFL. It's

812
00:34:07,668 --> 00:34:09,868
Speaker 12: on some some weird time zones for us. We have

813
00:34:09,908 --> 00:34:11,388
Speaker 12: to get up really early to watch the games. But

814
00:34:11,668 --> 00:34:13,108
Speaker 12: to have a game out there is going to be

815
00:34:13,188 --> 00:34:15,828
Speaker 12: really big for the game, I think in terms of

816
00:34:15,828 --> 00:34:18,388
Speaker 12: Prisbone thirty two, I mean that would be insane.

817
00:34:18,468 --> 00:34:19,828
Speaker 2: We're really hoping for it.

818
00:34:19,948 --> 00:34:22,548
Speaker 12: I think we've got such a good sporting culture in

819
00:34:22,588 --> 00:34:25,428
Speaker 12: Australia and our Flag program is really taking off, so

820
00:34:25,468 --> 00:34:27,308
Speaker 12: I think it'd be a really full circle moment for

821
00:34:27,388 --> 00:34:29,268
Speaker 12: us to get it into into Prisbone thirty two would

822
00:34:29,268 --> 00:34:29,668
Speaker 12: be amazing.

823
00:34:30,588 --> 00:34:33,148
Speaker 3: I was doing some updates for like a prime time

824
00:34:33,308 --> 00:34:35,268
Speaker 3: NFL game for the Australia audience.

825
00:34:35,628 --> 00:34:37,148
Speaker 2: Wait where are They're like, they're at the pub. Don't

826
00:34:37,148 --> 00:34:40,228
Speaker 2: worry about what I'm in. They're locked in. That checks out.

827
00:34:41,708 --> 00:34:42,028
Speaker 6: Tracks.

828
00:34:42,068 --> 00:34:42,708
Speaker 2: I'm very glad.

829
00:34:42,988 --> 00:34:44,908
Speaker 3: I thank you both so much for joining us, for

830
00:34:44,988 --> 00:34:47,988
Speaker 3: growing the game, for representing of course, and best of

831
00:34:48,108 --> 00:34:50,988
Speaker 3: luck with your training over the next few months.

832
00:34:49,868 --> 00:34:51,508
Speaker 2: Thank you.

833
00:34:52,788 --> 00:34:55,228
Speaker 11: I'm down some weight, yeah, from from the end of

834
00:34:55,228 --> 00:34:57,948
Speaker 11: the season last year, But each year is different, man.

835
00:34:58,068 --> 00:34:59,348
Speaker 6: You got to you got to rebuild it.

836
00:34:59,428 --> 00:35:02,548
Speaker 11: And this year I got some time to really focus

837
00:35:02,908 --> 00:35:06,748
Speaker 11: on some some form run and some things early on

838
00:35:06,788 --> 00:35:09,508
Speaker 11: in the offseason that I just didn't have time for

839
00:35:09,588 --> 00:35:12,628
Speaker 11: last year, and certainly feeling good and I think it'll

840
00:35:12,668 --> 00:35:13,028
Speaker 11: pay off.

841
00:35:13,028 --> 00:35:13,188
Speaker 4: Man.

842
00:35:14,348 --> 00:35:17,188
Speaker 3: All Right, so last season and the way that they wanted.

843
00:35:17,268 --> 00:35:20,388
Speaker 3: Of course, many questions about Travis Kelcey seems to have

844
00:35:20,628 --> 00:35:23,788
Speaker 3: answered that right. He's back, ready to go, slim and trim.

845
00:35:23,828 --> 00:35:24,228
Speaker 2: He says.

846
00:35:24,388 --> 00:35:29,628
Speaker 3: The question though, said the Chiefs still be the AFC favorites.

847
00:35:29,748 --> 00:35:32,268
Speaker 3: I know that you have nobody else talking about.

848
00:35:32,348 --> 00:35:35,868
Speaker 8: Yeah, Look the Chiefs have they They owned the league,

849
00:35:35,868 --> 00:35:38,308
Speaker 8: owned the league. It was we went through this Patriots dynasty.

850
00:35:38,828 --> 00:35:41,108
Speaker 8: We're in the midst of this Chiefs dynasty. Even though

851
00:35:41,108 --> 00:35:43,868
Speaker 8: they came up short last year, they have the on

852
00:35:43,908 --> 00:35:47,188
Speaker 8: the league. They've dominated the AFC. Just a testament to

853
00:35:47,308 --> 00:35:51,068
Speaker 8: Travis Kelce, like he is an ultimate professional. As you're

854
00:35:51,108 --> 00:35:52,828
Speaker 8: getting older, you're getting up there in age. I just

855
00:35:52,828 --> 00:35:56,588
Speaker 8: finished twelve years. The true professionals like you pay attention

856
00:35:56,668 --> 00:36:01,388
Speaker 8: to those physical limit limits that that comes about with

857
00:36:01,588 --> 00:36:05,908
Speaker 8: age and experience, and you have to combat it and

858
00:36:06,308 --> 00:36:08,188
Speaker 8: the fact that he's dropping away, Like that's what I

859
00:36:08,268 --> 00:36:10,708
Speaker 8: started to do later in my career. Every year, try

860
00:36:10,748 --> 00:36:14,028
Speaker 8: to find ways to combat to the physical changes that happens.

861
00:36:14,148 --> 00:36:15,148
Speaker 4: He's a true professional.

862
00:36:15,188 --> 00:36:18,748
Speaker 1: You got Patrick Mahomes, you got Andy Reid, Travis Kelsey's

863
00:36:18,748 --> 00:36:20,948
Speaker 1: still there. They bring it back the healthy receivers like

864
00:36:21,428 --> 00:36:25,068
Speaker 1: we yes. In short, yes, I mean they are the dominant.

865
00:36:25,108 --> 00:36:28,108
Speaker 1: Going back to what you said, it's they're the premier team.

866
00:36:28,508 --> 00:36:31,388
Speaker 1: They've created a dynasty. They went to the super Bowl

867
00:36:31,428 --> 00:36:32,548
Speaker 1: last year. I mean, that's the only thing that you

868
00:36:32,548 --> 00:36:35,548
Speaker 1: could have done besides winn and so representing the AFC,

869
00:36:35,748 --> 00:36:36,268
Speaker 1: you have to.

870
00:36:36,228 --> 00:36:38,148
Speaker 6: Go through them. There's no other way around it.

871
00:36:38,188 --> 00:36:40,188
Speaker 1: And it's gonna be a tough season for a lot

872
00:36:40,228 --> 00:36:42,748
Speaker 1: of guys when they go see the Kansas City Chiefs,

873
00:36:42,988 --> 00:36:45,068
Speaker 1: especially when you play there. So yeah, when we talk

874
00:36:45,108 --> 00:36:47,948
Speaker 1: about the AFC, they are front runner. I did mention

875
00:36:48,028 --> 00:36:50,708
Speaker 1: the Chargers because they are gonna be tough to deal with.

876
00:36:50,788 --> 00:36:53,228
Speaker 6: The Broncos are as well. I mean it's.

877
00:36:53,068 --> 00:36:56,668
Speaker 1: Wide open, but if you cannot be Patrick Mahomes.

878
00:36:56,428 --> 00:36:59,628
Speaker 6: There's no shot. Yeah. I agree with you, guys.

879
00:36:59,748 --> 00:37:02,508
Speaker 7: I mean, and I think everybody has to agree until

880
00:37:02,508 --> 00:37:04,908
Speaker 7: they're knocked off. Right, you're talking about we talk about

881
00:37:04,908 --> 00:37:06,788
Speaker 7: we talked a lot about injuries today, right. We talked

882
00:37:06,788 --> 00:37:09,548
Speaker 7: about the hopeful uh you know this of Dallas cow

883
00:37:09,668 --> 00:37:11,628
Speaker 7: Boys and some of the other teams in Euston, Texas

884
00:37:11,708 --> 00:37:14,228
Speaker 7: once they get healthy. Well, Kansas City had some of

885
00:37:14,268 --> 00:37:16,308
Speaker 7: those same issues last year and they still found a

886
00:37:16,348 --> 00:37:18,268
Speaker 7: way to the super Bowl. So not only did they

887
00:37:18,308 --> 00:37:20,828
Speaker 7: overcome their injuries, but now they're they've.

888
00:37:20,628 --> 00:37:23,388
Speaker 4: Reloaded right, and they're ready to rock this thing this year.

889
00:37:23,428 --> 00:37:25,828
Speaker 7: So you give Andy Reid a healthy offense and they

890
00:37:25,868 --> 00:37:27,708
Speaker 7: continue to do the things that they do with defensively,

891
00:37:27,988 --> 00:37:29,588
Speaker 7: that is the team that you have to go through.

892
00:37:29,628 --> 00:37:32,228
Speaker 7: I know that other teams are getting better, they're getting stronger,

893
00:37:32,388 --> 00:37:33,708
Speaker 7: but those are the Kings.

894
00:37:33,788 --> 00:37:35,788
Speaker 4: Until you knocked the King off the mountain, they are

895
00:37:35,788 --> 00:37:36,228
Speaker 4: on top.

896
00:37:36,548 --> 00:37:38,228
Speaker 3: Do you think there'll be a bit of a Super

897
00:37:38,228 --> 00:37:40,828
Speaker 3: Bowl hangover from a loss like that though for.

898
00:37:40,828 --> 00:37:43,828
Speaker 7: The Chiefs all around.

899
00:37:44,028 --> 00:37:47,908
Speaker 8: Yeah, we've seen it when it happened against Tampa Bagh when.

900
00:37:47,748 --> 00:37:49,428
Speaker 4: They went and lost to Tom Brady.

901
00:37:49,508 --> 00:37:51,788
Speaker 8: They responded and then Pat Mahons went right back to

902
00:37:51,788 --> 00:37:53,068
Speaker 8: the big dance and got another ring.

903
00:37:53,148 --> 00:37:54,148
Speaker 4: So we've seen it.

904
00:37:54,868 --> 00:37:58,308
Speaker 1: Yeah, We'll say they've been a playoffs. They've been a playoffs,

905
00:37:58,548 --> 00:38:00,148
Speaker 1: and we'll see what happens from there. I'm telling you,

906
00:38:00,228 --> 00:38:02,228
Speaker 1: it's like we I kind of feel like there's only

907
00:38:02,268 --> 00:38:06,308
Speaker 1: a couple spots open that new teams can kind of

908
00:38:06,308 --> 00:38:07,908
Speaker 1: get into the playoffs, you know what i mean.

909
00:38:07,948 --> 00:38:10,308
Speaker 6: But other than that, we know the domine teams and

910
00:38:10,668 --> 00:38:11,268
Speaker 6: the Bills.

911
00:38:11,468 --> 00:38:13,988
Speaker 1: You got Kansas City, I mean, we know they're going

912
00:38:14,068 --> 00:38:16,188
Speaker 1: to be there. So yes, they're on the top of

913
00:38:16,228 --> 00:38:18,068
Speaker 1: the mountain and you have to knock them off.

914
00:38:18,428 --> 00:38:20,668
Speaker 7: You got Andy Reid, Steve Spank, know you, and then

915
00:38:20,708 --> 00:38:23,428
Speaker 7: you also have Patrick Mahonks. As long as you have

916
00:38:23,468 --> 00:38:25,388
Speaker 7: that three headed monster right there, you have to deal

917
00:38:25,428 --> 00:38:26,908
Speaker 7: with these guys, and they're gonna be a problem.

918
00:38:26,708 --> 00:38:28,548
Speaker 4: For a long time. You know what I'm saying. They

919
00:38:28,588 --> 00:38:30,148
Speaker 4: do a really a great.

920
00:38:30,028 --> 00:38:33,108
Speaker 8: Job of the small details, the little nuances that's not

921
00:38:33,588 --> 00:38:38,868
Speaker 8: necessarily stats or statistics, but just the late game situations,

922
00:38:39,228 --> 00:38:43,988
Speaker 8: the two minute drills and understanding Tom how to how

923
00:38:44,028 --> 00:38:46,668
Speaker 8: to manage Tom. They do a really great job of

924
00:38:46,908 --> 00:38:50,268
Speaker 8: protecting the ball and taking the ball away, just the separation.

925
00:38:50,548 --> 00:38:53,508
Speaker 8: They find a way to separate themselves from good teams

926
00:38:54,028 --> 00:38:57,108
Speaker 8: at the end of the game. Consistently, they probably won

927
00:38:57,188 --> 00:39:00,868
Speaker 8: the most one score yeah, one score games over the

928
00:39:00,908 --> 00:39:03,668
Speaker 8: last five years. Yeah, and I'm not surprised. That's why

929
00:39:03,668 --> 00:39:05,708
Speaker 8: they consistently to the big game, and.

930
00:39:05,628 --> 00:39:06,388
Speaker 4: That's why it's scary.

931
00:39:06,828 --> 00:39:08,468
Speaker 7: You started talking about those teams that are like, we

932
00:39:08,548 --> 00:39:10,548
Speaker 7: know kena City, we know the quality of ball that

933
00:39:10,588 --> 00:39:12,468
Speaker 7: they play, and we know that that was not it

934
00:39:12,548 --> 00:39:15,868
Speaker 7: last year and they were still at the Super you know,

935
00:39:15,988 --> 00:39:18,348
Speaker 7: they still at Super Bowl tea. You talked about winning,

936
00:39:18,388 --> 00:39:20,148
Speaker 7: you know, winning all those one possession games could have

937
00:39:20,148 --> 00:39:22,788
Speaker 7: win either way. Even though they're not playing up to

938
00:39:22,828 --> 00:39:25,828
Speaker 7: their standard, they're still etching games out. That is a

939
00:39:25,868 --> 00:39:27,948
Speaker 7: testament of a scary team. And we started talking about

940
00:39:27,988 --> 00:39:30,228
Speaker 7: the leadership qualities of Andy Reid. You started talking about

941
00:39:30,228 --> 00:39:32,588
Speaker 7: spac start talking about Patrick Mahomes. Now you're starting to

942
00:39:32,668 --> 00:39:34,788
Speaker 7: lean into what like Tom Brady was when he didn't

943
00:39:34,788 --> 00:39:36,908
Speaker 7: have the stacked rosters. But you always knew that they

944
00:39:36,908 --> 00:39:38,748
Speaker 7: were going to find a way to win the ball game.

945
00:39:38,908 --> 00:39:41,028
Speaker 7: That's the commience that Kansas City has. And then until

946
00:39:41,028 --> 00:39:43,028
Speaker 7: you figure that out, you have to worry about them

947
00:39:43,068 --> 00:39:44,548
Speaker 7: casts continue to being in that Super Bowl.

948
00:39:44,628 --> 00:39:47,188
Speaker 3: Yeah, we talked about parody a lot with this league,

949
00:39:47,228 --> 00:39:49,268
Speaker 3: and the thing is we know that year to year

950
00:39:49,388 --> 00:39:51,588
Speaker 3: everything is not going to be equal. It's not going

951
00:39:51,628 --> 00:39:53,988
Speaker 3: to be apples to apples from the year before. And

952
00:39:54,108 --> 00:39:57,148
Speaker 3: the Chiefs have certainly dealt with that. They've dealt with injuries,

953
00:39:57,188 --> 00:39:59,468
Speaker 3: They've dealt with young guys coming in rookies who have

954
00:39:59,548 --> 00:40:02,868
Speaker 3: showed out year after year even when nobody expected to

955
00:40:02,908 --> 00:40:04,868
Speaker 3: be remember that whole Oh, it's a reb the year

956
00:40:04,908 --> 00:40:06,708
Speaker 3: for the Chiefs, and suddenly they won the Super Bowl

957
00:40:06,748 --> 00:40:09,988
Speaker 3: that year. And that to me is that Jenna Saqua,

958
00:40:10,108 --> 00:40:13,308
Speaker 3: that that little extra spice that the Chiefs have. It's

959
00:40:13,348 --> 00:40:17,028
Speaker 3: that consistency that they have in their foundation, in their coaching,

960
00:40:17,348 --> 00:40:21,068
Speaker 3: in the true identity of that squad. They always find

961
00:40:21,108 --> 00:40:22,508
Speaker 3: a way and they have it there and they don't

962
00:40:22,548 --> 00:40:25,708
Speaker 3: flinch when things do go sideways and made it to

963
00:40:25,748 --> 00:40:28,828
Speaker 3: another Super Bowl. I know they lost badly, but still

964
00:40:29,628 --> 00:40:32,268
Speaker 3: they still did with all right, let's move to another team.

965
00:40:32,268 --> 00:40:34,548
Speaker 2: Another coach that's a foundational piece.

966
00:40:39,108 --> 00:40:44,788
Speaker 7: Oh fo four pound, five pounds, that's almost a ninety

967
00:40:44,788 --> 00:40:45,828
Speaker 7: degree squad right there.

968
00:40:47,268 --> 00:40:48,228
Speaker 2: Is fantastic.

969
00:40:48,548 --> 00:40:50,988
Speaker 4: Last starts with a six.

970
00:40:51,108 --> 00:40:55,308
Speaker 10: Right, pretty sure he's in the sixties, right, yeah, sixty

971
00:40:55,348 --> 00:40:56,068
Speaker 10: two years old?

972
00:40:56,188 --> 00:41:00,628
Speaker 7: Squatting that's crazy where they do that at We.

973
00:41:00,588 --> 00:41:04,148
Speaker 3: Would expect this from Sean McVay who's running out their sidelines.

974
00:41:05,028 --> 00:41:07,148
Speaker 6: But look at coach, right, he got to play this

975
00:41:07,228 --> 00:41:09,788
Speaker 6: for his team. He gotta play that. Oh they gotta

976
00:41:09,828 --> 00:41:10,188
Speaker 6: see that.

977
00:41:10,388 --> 00:41:12,348
Speaker 7: You can't even get You can't even get in the

978
00:41:12,348 --> 00:41:15,068
Speaker 7: squad reck without putting three three three racks on there.

979
00:41:15,108 --> 00:41:16,308
Speaker 6: Now, like that's not even a thing.

980
00:41:16,868 --> 00:41:18,508
Speaker 7: You know, you get on the squadrag with two twenty

981
00:41:18,508 --> 00:41:20,108
Speaker 7: five on your back. Coach can be like, yeah, so

982
00:41:20,428 --> 00:41:21,588
Speaker 7: what are you doing in the weight room?

983
00:41:21,708 --> 00:41:25,148
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't want to hear about off season four,

984
00:41:25,268 --> 00:41:27,908
Speaker 3: but that speaks to who he is as a leader.

985
00:41:28,068 --> 00:41:30,628
Speaker 2: He sets the bar with him. So what does John.

986
00:41:30,388 --> 00:41:33,428
Speaker 3: Harbaugh mean to the Ravens, especially when he's showing out

987
00:41:33,468 --> 00:41:35,948
Speaker 3: like this June lead by example.

988
00:41:35,948 --> 00:41:38,028
Speaker 4: I mean his career speaks for itself, right.

989
00:41:37,948 --> 00:41:39,428
Speaker 7: I mean what he's done, but I mean the fact

990
00:41:39,428 --> 00:41:42,028
Speaker 7: that he's getting in there, getting after you can't help

991
00:41:42,068 --> 00:41:44,268
Speaker 7: but being inspired as a player. We've all been in

992
00:41:44,268 --> 00:41:46,508
Speaker 7: the lockers before. We see that video like that. We

993
00:41:46,588 --> 00:41:48,628
Speaker 7: have a high regard and respect for him because you
