1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,920
Speaker 1: So young, you were a rookie. Uh, when you guys

2
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,279
Speaker 1: were in the Super Bowl. How how did that experience

3
00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:10,440
Speaker 1: shape what's happened since? And yeah, and especially as a

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 1: leader of what you can pass on to to the

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:13,800
Speaker 1: younger guys.

6
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 2: Now, Yeah, I mean I I look back at that

7
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:20,439
Speaker 2: moment and I can truly say that I really was

8
00:00:20,520 --> 00:00:22,599
Speaker 2: in the moment, and I you know, I took it really,

9
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:26,319
Speaker 2: really seriously, even though I was young. But you know,

10
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:28,320
Speaker 2: when you're when you're young and naive, you think you're

11
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:30,520
Speaker 2: like when you go so early in your career, it's like, man,

12
00:00:30,560 --> 00:00:33,040
Speaker 2: this is this is just what it's like. You go

13
00:00:33,080 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 2: to the Super Bowl every year you have a chance

14
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:37,640
Speaker 2: to compete, and uh it's not. That's not what the

15
00:00:37,640 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: case is, you know. So, uh we we've been so close,

16
00:00:41,800 --> 00:00:45,520
Speaker 2: and now we finally have another opportunity, and you gotta

17
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:46,839
Speaker 2: make the most of it because you never know if

18
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: you're gonna have another opportunity.

19
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:48,800
Speaker 3: You know, you got it.

20
00:00:48,840 --> 00:00:52,240
Speaker 2: You really got to sell out for three hours and

21
00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: uh give it your best.

22
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,960
Speaker 4: Some standard here it has been so high, and that

23
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 4: in mind, I was the question, how would you assess.

24
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 3: Performance in the first two playoffs? Yeah, not good enough

25
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:06,800
Speaker 3: not good enough at all. And you mentioned it.

26
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: The standard has been what it has been for as

27
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,720
Speaker 2: long as I've been here, you know, and we've we've

28
00:01:12,720 --> 00:01:17,240
Speaker 2: relied heavily on winning games on defense, holding teams to

29
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 2: minimal points, suffocating teams, make you know, dictating how the

30
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:24,080
Speaker 2: game's gonna go based off of how we go and

31
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 2: and that hasn't been the case last two games. And

32
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: then that's for you know, a bunch of different reasons.

33
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: But you know, we have an opportunity to write that.

34
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 2: You know, they're probably looking at the tape, they're thinking

35
00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: they have a great opportunity ahead, and they you know,

36
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 2: as they should. They should look at that tape and

37
00:01:38,840 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: they should think and they should think that. But to

38
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 2: say that we have, you know, a great opportunity to

39
00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 2: correct that, to make sure that we give our best

40
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 2: performance in the super Bowl.

41
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 3: I think that's exactly where our mindsets at issue. With

42
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:52,520
Speaker 3: the run defense in particular.

43
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,120
Speaker 4: I think even a like five point st starts for

44
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 4: carrying the playoffs, which is so unlikely as.

45
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's it's a it's a collection of the

46
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 2: things I think on any given play when we're not

47
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 2: executing the right way, it's just either one guy out

48
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,720
Speaker 2: of a gap, it's you know, not giving great effort

49
00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 2: as a whole, as a group like we.

50
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,360
Speaker 3: Have been in the past.

51
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 2: You know, when you're playing violent, you're playing fast, you're

52
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 2: playing with great effort. That cleans a lot of that

53
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 2: stuff up. So it's from an execution standpoint.

54
00:02:19,960 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 3: From a.

55
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:26,519
Speaker 2: Standard damp, a standard standpoint, like we just got to

56
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 2: make sure we get back to that in this game.

57
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: You've played in this game now before, what did you

58
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 1: the one experience that you had in this game, you know,

59
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 1: teach you about maybe your approach the second time around.

60
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: You got to play full sixty minutes, you know, to say,

61
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,320
Speaker 2: you know, we're We're up by ten points late in

62
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 2: the game, and I'm thinking, you know, hey, like we

63
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 2: we're about to win us a super Bowl, And that

64
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: thing switched pretty quick, you know, and that scarred me

65
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 2: for life, like because now to this day, it doesn't

66
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 2: matter what if it's a preseason, regular season playoff game.

67
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,720
Speaker 2: You know, I never start getting excited until that clockade zero,

68
00:03:03,919 --> 00:03:06,359
Speaker 2: you know. And so that's that's gotta be the mindset,

69
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,000
Speaker 2: playing all the way all the way to the very end.

70
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: Because they got a pretty special guy back there throwing

71
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,680
Speaker 2: the football, and uh, you know, we got to do

72
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,960
Speaker 2: our best to stuff them for life.

73
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 4: The fact that it's the same team, same coach, same quarterback,

74
00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 4: even the same color uniforms are gonna wear that day.

75
00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 4: What emotions does that bring and how do you channel them?

76
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I'm sure that's gonna get built up

77
00:03:30,560 --> 00:03:32,840
Speaker 2: all week, you know, the rematch and uh and that

78
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,000
Speaker 2: sort of thing. I think at the end of the day,

79
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 2: there is two completely different teams because there's a lot

80
00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 2: of different faces on each side of the ball. You know,

81
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: we I think we just gotta treat this as as

82
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 2: it is. You know, this is a different offense than

83
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:47,520
Speaker 2: what it was back then, uh when we played them.

84
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: It does have a lot of similar players there, obviously

85
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 2: in crucial positions.

86
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:52,320
Speaker 3: But we just got to.

87
00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 2: Make sure we we we prepare the right way and

88
00:03:54,320 --> 00:03:55,600
Speaker 2: were ready to go on Sunday.

89
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 1: Felt like you you said after Super you felt like

90
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 1: you you could get back there. You know, this is

91
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: just kind the mindset because like, oh, it's easy to

92
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: get back year as you did so young your career.

93
00:04:06,000 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: What was the most difficult part of getting back there

94
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,400
Speaker 1: over these last few years, whether it was COVID year

95
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: or you know, coming up short of the NFC Championship.

96
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,760
Speaker 1: What has struck you the most about that client back?

97
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean every year it's kind of different, I think.

98
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,200
Speaker 2: You know, you think back to twenty one, we barely

99
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 2: scraped into the playoffs on that last you know, game

100
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:25,479
Speaker 2: of the season and far our way to the to

101
00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:27,480
Speaker 2: the NFC Championship game and lost to a really good

102
00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 2: Rams team who went and went on to win the

103
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: Super Bowl. And then last year we lose our quarterback

104
00:04:31,800 --> 00:04:33,719
Speaker 2: in the NFC Championship game, don't really have a chance

105
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 2: at it. And then this year being down in both

106
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 2: games uh in the playoffs to then come back and

107
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 2: win them. You know, I think in every single one

108
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:44,400
Speaker 2: of those situations, it's just been different, even back going

109
00:04:44,440 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 2: back to nineteen.

110
00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:46,840
Speaker 3: So every year is different.

111
00:04:46,920 --> 00:04:48,480
Speaker 2: You got to find a way to win and and

112
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 2: get over that humph. You know, it comes down to

113
00:04:52,560 --> 00:04:54,320
Speaker 2: one or two plays in the game in the playoffs

114
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 2: and and even into the Super Bowl.

115
00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 4: We us have a very good defense with the good minebackers.

116
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 4: They knew that they had to stop Travis Kelce uh

117
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 4: in that last game and they and they don't what

118
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,560
Speaker 4: what makes that uh so special for the Chiefs, that

119
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,479
Speaker 4: quarterback tight end relationship.

120
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:16,280
Speaker 3: That they went.

121
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think they obviously have as great a bond

122
00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:22,640
Speaker 2: as any you know, one or two punts in the NFL,

123
00:05:22,760 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 2: like from a quarterback in skilled player position maybe in history.

124
00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:27,520
Speaker 4: You know.

125
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: I think the fact that they know he Pat knows

126
00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: exactly where Kelsey's gonna be on every give and play,

127
00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 2: Kelsey having the confidence and the trust and and Pat

128
00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 2: that he can run his routes a certain way where

129
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: it's not necessarily gonna be by the playbook.

130
00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:39,239
Speaker 3: He's just gonna try and find open space.

131
00:05:39,279 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 2: And they can, uh you know, they can just kind

132
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,599
Speaker 2: of have a feel out there on the field. You

133
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 2: can go into a game saying, you know, we're just

134
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 2: gonna double them, and that's gonna open up other things.

135
00:05:47,520 --> 00:05:49,040
Speaker 2: So you want to try to stay true as well

136
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:53,720
Speaker 2: as contest that. But yeah, I mean they're obviously one

137
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 2: of the best to do it. In the locker room

138
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,960
Speaker 2: at halftime Sunday, you look at a stat sheet where

139
00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:01,160
Speaker 2: you're like, we gave up are eighty yards at the

140
00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:01,640
Speaker 2: first time.

141
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 3: No, I didn't, uh, I didn't want to look at

142
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 3: the status.

143
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: See, I'm sure that would have that would have really

144
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 2: compounded on top of the feelings that were already there.

145
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: But I mean I knew it wasn't It wasn't a

146
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 2: good half at all. And yeah, we had we had

147
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:15,560
Speaker 2: to switching things.

148
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:21,000
Speaker 1: Up that you faced the last two games.

149
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 4: How much does that help giving so much more consistent

150
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 4: effort going forward?

151
00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 2: Uh, having gone through the adversity as a team or

152
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: on defense?

153
00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:32,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, on defense?

154
00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:36,920
Speaker 2: You know, I think, like I said before, like this

155
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:40,560
Speaker 2: is an opportunity in my eyes, to to correct the wrongs.

156
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: That we've that we've had.

157
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: I mean, you talk about even though we played the

158
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,360
Speaker 2: way we did and still found a way to win

159
00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,400
Speaker 2: with the offense that we got right now, says everything

160
00:06:48,560 --> 00:06:50,839
Speaker 2: about our team and about our chances of winning this

161
00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:53,599
Speaker 2: game that's coming up. Because if we do sure up

162
00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:54,880
Speaker 2: the things that we need to do, if we do

163
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: come out and we play the defense that I know

164
00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 2: that we're capable of doing, I know we have a

165
00:06:57,920 --> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 2: great chance of winning the game.

166
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:01,920
Speaker 1: Play with a ton of passion and you can see

167
00:07:01,960 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: it on the film. If you're watching that film and

168
00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 1: you see somebody going half speed or loafing, are you

169
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:09,240
Speaker 1: the kind of guy that gets in a guy's face

170
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:12,360
Speaker 1: and says, hey, that's unacceptable, that's not our standard.

171
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 3: You know.

172
00:07:14,120 --> 00:07:17,120
Speaker 2: I think it's a the thing that is more meaningful

173
00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,360
Speaker 2: than just trying to get on get on specific guys.

174
00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,480
Speaker 3: I think as being the guy that.

175
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: Shows, you know, consistency and is the truest example of

176
00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 2: exactly what we're looking for. You know, I can look

177
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 2: at game, I can look at plays in that this

178
00:07:27,520 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: past game where I wasn't fully given my hundred percent effort,

179
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,160
Speaker 2: you know, and it's like, who am I to sit

180
00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 2: there and talk down on somebody else when I wasn't

181
00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:34,440
Speaker 2: all the way there?

182
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:35,000
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying.

183
00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 2: So I'm always trying to look at myself first in

184
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 2: the mirror and make sure that I'm the example today

185
00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:39,880
Speaker 2: when we're out there to practice.

186
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 3: How how do you look in practice right now?

187
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 2: Like, how do I look in what example might give

188
00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 2: into my guys for what we're trying to look like

189
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:47,720
Speaker 2: on Sunday. It's not just gonna happen just because we

190
00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:50,240
Speaker 2: talk about it's got It's gotta be something that you

191
00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:51,520
Speaker 2: do day in and day out, and we have that

192
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,880
Speaker 2: opportunity today's.

193
00:07:53,640 --> 00:07:57,160
Speaker 3: Locker situation as you need, Yes, it is.

194
00:07:59,160 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 4: Initiated.

195
00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:06,120
Speaker 3: Well who's this guy say about him? But his status

196
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 3: on the team.

197
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:11,880
Speaker 2: That, Yeah, it's funny that.

198
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 3: I mean, it really doesn't get talked about much.

199
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 2: We just kind of walked by and we're like, ah,

200
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:17,280
Speaker 2: this is just kind of you know, Trent's little mall

201
00:08:17,360 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 2: that he has right here. You know, it's, you know,

202
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 2: just kind of his own little area. I mean, he's

203
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: he's already got a gold jacket to his name, so

204
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:25,640
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure he can do whatever he wants in

205
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 2: that locker room. And guys are not gonna say much

206
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:27,920
Speaker 2: about it.

207
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:30,280
Speaker 1: When you talk about learning from the last Super Bowl,

208
00:08:30,280 --> 00:08:32,880
Speaker 1: how important it is to play sixty minutes. How helpful

209
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: is it to have someone like sars for it on

210
00:08:34,960 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: the defense that has.

211
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:37,080
Speaker 3: Been through that and want a Super Bowl?

212
00:08:38,200 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, uh, it's just helpful to have a

213
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,960
Speaker 2: Super Bowl champ on our side. You know, a guy

214
00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 2: who is a a Pro bowler and an All Pro

215
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 2: and has been outstanding for us this entire year. You know,

216
00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:50,439
Speaker 2: I'm really proud of Mooney the way that he's competed

217
00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:52,560
Speaker 2: and played this year. And obviously he's been there, he's

218
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 2: done that, and having that veteran presence in the secondary

219
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 2: is gonna help him on that side of the ball,

220
00:08:56,960 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 2: or I'm just in that area of our defense and

221
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 2: we're gonna need him big time comes Sunday.

222
00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:05,560
Speaker 4: You haven't meet him yet defending.

223
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's something that we got to continue

224
00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:10,200
Speaker 2: to try to search for and find out through the

225
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 2: tape leading up to Sunday. And you know, I think

226
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,160
Speaker 2: he's obviously one of the greatest to ever do it,

227
00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:18,000
Speaker 2: and he's gonna have his plays in the game. We

228
00:09:18,080 --> 00:09:20,640
Speaker 2: got to make sure we limit him to making it

229
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 2: this least amount of those as possible during the game.

230
00:09:26,120 --> 00:09:29,520
Speaker 2: You're yeah, I think just the thing that's been so

231
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,040
Speaker 2: great with with him and with me and the entire

232
00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:35,760
Speaker 2: defense is the flow communication and continuing to you know,

233
00:09:36,400 --> 00:09:38,800
Speaker 2: to talk through things. I think him obviously coming down

234
00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:40,480
Speaker 2: from the box of the sideline, me and him talked

235
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,680
Speaker 2: about it. You know, it's not about just like, you know,

236
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,120
Speaker 2: the whole energy of him being down there. It's more

237
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:46,560
Speaker 2: so about just being able to look each other in

238
00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,120
Speaker 2: the eye and in those crucial situations where it's like, Hey,

239
00:09:49,120 --> 00:09:50,280
Speaker 2: what do you want? Like what do you want to

240
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,000
Speaker 2: He's asking me, like what do you want to play?

241
00:09:52,040 --> 00:09:52,199
Speaker 3: Here?

242
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 2: You know, it's not about just giving a call and

243
00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,760
Speaker 2: making us play it. It's like, no, we're fully into

244
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:59,760
Speaker 2: this thing together. You know, we're gonna we're gonna ride

245
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 2: it out all the way to the end, and we

246
00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,439
Speaker 2: have an opportunity to, uh to finish this thing the

247
00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:12,600
Speaker 2: right way. Halftime adjustments or how do you explain that? Yeah,

248
00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,719
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's consistent as long as I've been here.

249
00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 3: You know.

250
00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 2: I feel like even last year, even though we had

251
00:10:17,280 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 2: a number one defense, like there were times and games

252
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,840
Speaker 2: where like the first half just wasn't working for us,

253
00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:23,520
Speaker 2: and we made like one or two changes and in

254
00:10:23,600 --> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 2: terms of just what we're what we were calling, you know,

255
00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 2: simple adjustments, and then we're you know, we start snuffing

256
00:10:28,640 --> 00:10:30,559
Speaker 2: people out and it's like, dang, like the Miko is

257
00:10:30,559 --> 00:10:31,000
Speaker 2: a genius.

258
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:32,319
Speaker 3: He made all these changes.

259
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,040
Speaker 2: And it's like, well, we made a couple of changes,

260
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,520
Speaker 2: but it was just like a matter of just getting

261
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 2: the flow of the game and executing and just making

262
00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:38,760
Speaker 2: a couple of adjustments. And I feel like that's been

263
00:10:38,800 --> 00:10:41,079
Speaker 2: the same case here. We It's not like we did

264
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,640
Speaker 2: a whole bunch different in the second half. It's just

265
00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,080
Speaker 2: guys started playing you know, and uh being more aggressive

266
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 2: and stopping the run, so that puts more pressure on

267
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 2: golf getting three and outs, getting getting to take away

268
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:53,679
Speaker 2: like those little things like that ring.

269
00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: Twenty nineteen for NFC Championship and and where.

270
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 2: Is it and what are your.

271
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,600
Speaker 3: Thoughts on it? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know.

272
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 2: I don't know where that ring is. But uh, I

273
00:11:03,040 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 2: remember we got one. I was like, oh, this is cute.

274
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:10,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, you got a Super Bowl second year, Like this

275
00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,079
Speaker 1: is where it goes because Trent.

276
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:18,320
Speaker 2: Is like, let's go to Super Bowl out of Trent today.

277
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,320
Speaker 1: Do you have any sense of like just you know

278
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:26,680

Speaker 1: you just know how much this means Fani?

280
00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:31,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I think we can all kind of

281
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:32,920
Speaker 2: kind of sense how much it means to him. And

282
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:35,600
Speaker 2: you can you can sense it in the way that

283
00:11:35,640 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 2: he speaks to the team. He always talks to the

284
00:11:37,800 --> 00:11:39,480
Speaker 2: team right before we head out for the game, and

285
00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 2: you know, and just the emotion that he plays with

286
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:46,280
Speaker 2: the way that he plays and the emotion he showed

287
00:11:46,320 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 2: after the game, even after winning the NFC Championship, knowing

288
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:50,520
