1 00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: The NFL is running out of undefeated teams. In fact, 2 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:05,680 Speaker 1: there's only one left in the AFC, and it's the 3 00:00:05,800 --> 00:00:09,000 Speaker 1: back to back defending Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs. 4 00:00:09,360 --> 00:00:12,399 Speaker 1: But this week they'll try to stay unblemished against a 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,840 Speaker 1: really good New Orleans Saints team that started out as 6 00:00:14,880 --> 00:00:17,440 Speaker 1: hot as any in the league to start the twenty 7 00:00:17,480 --> 00:00:21,320 Speaker 1: twenty four season. It is all brought to you by Ticketmaster. 8 00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 1: We saw a lot of you in Los Angeles, and 9 00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 1: I'm sure a lot of you use Ticketmaster as you 10 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:26,960 Speaker 1: can all year long. 11 00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:28,720 Speaker 2: Home or road. 12 00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,400 Speaker 1: Handoff goes to p Ryan behind right guard, trying to 13 00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,280 Speaker 1: press forward a bunch of batties into the entire touchdown 14 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: Jansas City. Hi, everybody, I'm Mitchelta's voice of the Chiefs 15 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,560 Speaker 1: along with senior team reporter Matt McMullen. This episode, we're 16 00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: talking attack it, Attack it, attacking challenges our garb. This 17 00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:52,480 Speaker 1: is the crucial Catch game, which is done every year 18 00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,680 Speaker 1: by all of the thirty two teams in the NFL, 19 00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:58,360 Speaker 1: and of course it deals with the dynamics of cancer. 20 00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 1: All of these colors around the arrowhead here represent a 21 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,640 Speaker 1: different kind of cancer. Matt, It's touched every family. It's 22 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: touched yours, it's touched mine, and in any way, shape 23 00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: or form to attack it. If it's after a diagnose diagnosis, 24 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: I should say how you treat that and attack it 25 00:01:17,680 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: to try to arrest it or to prevent it. And 26 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: that's where the Crucial Catch comes in, to do the precautions, 27 00:01:23,240 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: to try to do our best to attack and beating cancer. 28 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:29,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's another great example of how the NFL uses 29 00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,840 Speaker 3: its platform to do good in the community and our 30 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 3: country and around the world. And I don't think any 31 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 3: of us want to think about cancer. It's not a 32 00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 3: fun thing to think about. But what our hoodies and 33 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,479 Speaker 3: what the game presentation and everything is meant to do 34 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,600 Speaker 3: is to remind everyone that it exists. But there's things 35 00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 3: that you can do to prevent the worst case scenario. 36 00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 3: And one of the best parts of the Crucial Catch 37 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 3: game every single year are all the survivors that are 38 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,720 Speaker 3: brought down on the field. We have a whole bunch 39 00:01:56,760 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 3: of survivors that were presented with tickets to this game. 40 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:01,880 Speaker 3: They're going to go to the game and be a 41 00:02:01,880 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 3: part of the whole presentation, and they're a great reminder 42 00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 3: that if you get ahead of this kind of thing, 43 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 3: you can beat it. So no one likes to talk 44 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 3: about cancer, but this is also a celebration of beating 45 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 3: cancer as well. 46 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Greg Sharp, who's the play by play voice 47 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: of the Nebraska corn Huskers. You and I'll get a 48 00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:20,840 Speaker 1: chance to meet him and talk to him. Known him 49 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:24,200 Speaker 1: a long time, but diagnosed in the springtime with pancreatic 50 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:28,360 Speaker 1: cancer and so he's attacking it, trying to fight through it. 51 00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: He did some baseball for the Huskers they won the 52 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:31,520 Speaker 1: Big Ten title. 53 00:02:31,560 --> 00:02:33,480 Speaker 2: He's able to call that game then. 54 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: Also he's done home games in Lincoln. But his wife Amy, 55 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 1: she's from Topeka. Greg's from Kansas City, but he's been 56 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:45,480 Speaker 1: involved in the markets in Topeka. He's of course involved 57 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:47,320 Speaker 1: in the Lincoln and Omaha markets as the voice of 58 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: the Huskers. Three beautiful daughters. They'll be at the game. 59 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:52,880 Speaker 1: But it comes to mind when you see how it 60 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: affects the family. But we're looking forward to hosting Greg 61 00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,200 Speaker 1: and it's just been a rough go for them. 62 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: I think it's really cool that he's continued need to 63 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 3: work for the Huskers. He probably loves doing Royola right. 64 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,519 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he sees well, he's a Chiefs fan too, 65 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: So yeah, he loves to see the. 66 00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:12,000 Speaker 2: Baby Patrick Likazo. Yeah, little Couzo in action. 67 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:13,480 Speaker 1: So it's been a little rough for the Huskers the 68 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: last couple of weeks, but hey, they're competitive at least. 69 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, little Kuzo and coach Matt Ruhle. But anyway, 70 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:22,000 Speaker 1: it's just an example of what all of you have faced. 71 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,040 Speaker 1: Every family has been affected in one way, shape or form. 72 00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 1: But there's an awareness here to, as you put it, 73 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: very well, to try to prevent it, arrest it, attack 74 00:03:33,080 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 1: it anyway, not to let it defeat us physically obviously, 75 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 1: but also psychologically. 76 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:41,920 Speaker 2: In a mental standpoint. 77 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,480 Speaker 1: All right, let's go around the world before we talk 78 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: about how the Chiefs are going to attack it, because 79 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: now we're dealing with adversity again, we have forgotten of 80 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,360 Speaker 1: how Andy Reid is. Probably the best thing he does 81 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: is handle flash points. I talk about this across the 82 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 1: country when I speak publicly. Andy Reid's a mastered handling 83 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: flash points. But let's go around the world before we 84 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: do that. 85 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 3: Let's do it. I've got ten today.

Yeah, exactly, 206 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: that's him. But he'll go, hey, we're with Trinidad and Tobago. 207 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: So it might be something we could do in defending 208 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: the kingdom to immediately connect to our folks around the world. 209 00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:37,960 Speaker 1: You mentioned the kid from Oregon, and all of a sudden, yeah, 210 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,840 Speaker 1: we're with the dude from Oregon via Mike' saft shortwave radio. 211 00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 3: I love it. 212 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: Anyway, A big shout out to him. I love his 213 00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,600 Speaker 1: avatar and social media. It's Emmitt Kelly, the clown, who 214 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 1: is from who's from Kansas by the way, it's from Sedan, Kansas. 215 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 1: Was sorry he's passed, but yeah, emittt Kelly the Clown. 216 00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:59,319 Speaker 1: Check it out, all right, let's jump into attacking this 217 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: because right now the Chiefs face an enormous challenge. Hollywood 218 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,559 Speaker 1: Brown goes down after the first catch of the preseason. 219 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: Now Rashie Rice goes down with a knee injury suffered 220 00:10:12,960 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: after trying to get the ball back and the interception 221 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 1: and the second drive of the game against the Chargers 222 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: on this pass game and great play by Rashi too 223 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:29,960 Speaker 1: was so good anyways, bad luck yep, it's heartbreaking. And 224 00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 1: then Isaiah Pacheco of course injured. So now you've got 225 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,720 Speaker 1: three guys you could add up almost twenty five to 226 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 1: twenty eight hundred yards and no, I don't know about 227 00:10:38,760 --> 00:10:41,640 Speaker 1: fifteen touchdowns. Now you've got to figure that out of 228 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:45,520 Speaker 1: those three guys being gone. But let's jump in. This 229 00:10:45,559 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 1: is where Andy Reid is to me. I think maybe 230 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: his greatest attribute of all of his attributes, his ability 231 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:58,040 Speaker 1: to troubleshoot, his ability to handle flashpoints. Because we all 232 00:10:58,120 --> 00:11:02,400 Speaker 1: forget in twelve years of twelve winning seasons, eight straight 233 00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: AFC WES titles, we forget the adversity. Every team that 234 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:11,200 Speaker 1: Andy Reid has had has faced big time challenges. And 235 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: instead of backing off or feeling sorry for if even 236 00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: I had the rebuke. I've had it many times where 237 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: he'll just look at you like, what are you talking about? 238 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 1: We got to figure this out and to attack the 239 00:11:21,280 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: problem and attack the flashpoint, and year and year, year 240 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 1: after year after year, if we can remind him here, 241 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: we can remind the fans of what Andy Reid has done. 242 00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,719 Speaker 3: And I think Chiefs Kingdom is well aware of this. 243 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:35,920 Speaker 3: I do think there is like a certain amnesia at 244 00:11:35,920 --> 00:11:38,640 Speaker 3: the national level. If I turn on like Sports Center 245 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:41,680 Speaker 3: or something, I think they are under the impression that 246 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 3: we've just had no adversity over the years, and one 247 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,440 Speaker 3: like every game fifty to nothing, every year has something 248 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,520 Speaker 3: because it's football and it's hard, and it's even harder 249 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:54,280 Speaker 3: for us, it seems like because we are the team 250 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 3: to go after for all of these teams. I harken 251 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 3: back to when we were in Atlanta. I mean, it 252 00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:01,560 Speaker 3: felt like the Super Bowl. And I'm not trying to 253 00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,960 Speaker 3: disparage the Falcons, It's just what it felt like. It 254 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 3: was a huge, huge game in Atlanta and it was 255 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: Week three. Well, we deal with that every single week, 256 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 3: and then you throw in other adverse situations like losing 257 00:12:12,480 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 3: Rashie Rice for however long. Losing Hollywood Brown, losing Pop 258 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 3: for however long we're going to lose him makes things difficult. 259 00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 3: But we have a track record here of having adverse 260 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 3: situations and overcoming them, and it makes the end result 261 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 3: all the more epic. And the one that always pops 262 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 3: in my head is Patrick Mahomes in twenty twenty two 263 00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 3: with the ankle injury. I mean, to overcome a high 264 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 3: ankle sprain against the Jaguars, to win that game on 265 00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: the high ankle sprain. His touchdown to mvs on like 266 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 3: one leg is one of my favorite, like forgotten plays. Ever, 267 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 3: then to beat the Bengals the next week on the 268 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,800 Speaker 3: high ankle sprain. You get two weeks off, things don't 269 00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:49,760 Speaker 3: go well in the first half against the Eagles, he's 270 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 3: limping off the field. What do you know, he wins 271 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 3: the game in the second half. That's the kind of 272 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 3: adverse thing in a microcosm level that we're dealing with here. Now, 273 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 3: you lose some players that are big time contributors, guys 274 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 3: that you're counting on. Well, the Chiefs don't just pack 275 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,200 Speaker 3: it in and say, oh, well, things aren't going how 276 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 3: we thought they would, So what are we going to do. 277 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 3: That's not how it works here and every single year, 278 00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,560 Speaker 3: and you can go through some more as well. We've 279 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,680 Speaker 3: seen something happen and it's a crossroads kind of thing 280 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:18,560 Speaker 3: where a lot of teams would just pack it in 281 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 3: and say it's not our year. And the Chiefs, actually, 282 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: I think it energized by it. They're actually more motivated 283 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:27,360 Speaker 3: than they were before by the adversity. So we'll see 284 00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 3: what happens with this. But I have all the faith 285 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 3: in the world and Patrick Mahomes and Coach Read because 286 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 3: they've shown it time and time again. 287 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,600 Speaker 1: We're just starting twenty three most drops minus eleven giveaway 288 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: takeaway ratio. You lose the Christmas Day game to the Raiders, 289 00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: gloom and doom outside the Fort, Coach Read, I'll fix it. 290 00:13:43,480 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 2: We'll figure this out. Oh when's the super Bowl? 291 00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: When you look at twenty two you just mentioned all 292 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 1: of the with Pat and his high ankle sprained, but 293 00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:54,880 Speaker 1: Chad Henny leads a ninety eight yard drive to help 294 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: Jacksonville in the divisional playoff game. That's from infrastructure and 295 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: people not paying it on the sideline. 296 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:03,000 Speaker 2: The end of the year. 297 00:14:03,080 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: In thirteen and twenty one, both really devastating kind of 298 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:11,840 Speaker 1: playoff losses after having big leads and could have won 299 00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 1: both the Cincinnati and the AFC Championship game of the 300 00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:17,079 Speaker 1: Colts in thirteen. So what happens figures it out. You 301 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 1: rebound to have incredible years The next year twenty fourteen, 302 00:14:19,960 --> 00:14:22,600 Speaker 1: you lose two guys within a minute in Derek Johnson 303 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: and Mike DeVito. You come rally to go nine and seven. 304 00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 1: Chiefs have never had a losing record since Andy Reid 305 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:30,160 Speaker 1: has been here. Where we go start one to five 306 00:14:30,360 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 1: In twenty fifteen, you win ten straight games that set 307 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,720 Speaker 1: a record at the time, went to the playoffs, won 308 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:38,840 Speaker 1: a playoff game at twenty sixteen, dealing with the injury 309 00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 1: to Derek Johnson. I can still see it right in 310 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,240 Speaker 1: front of me in the Raider game. Oh twenty seventeen, 311 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: lost six out of seven games, rally to win the 312 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 1: last four, win the division for the second year in 313 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,320 Speaker 1: a row. And so there's another example twenty eighteen, the 314 00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: same twenty twenty COVID and just handling all that, Andy Reid. 315 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,680 Speaker 3: Is koree and four starting in twenty twenty one. 316 00:14:58,440 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 1: He's a master at handling these kind of situations. You 317 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 1: and I have seen it easy to take it for granted, 318 00:15:04,520 --> 00:15:07,760 Speaker 1: but he's handling flash points because he attacks it. He 319 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,680 Speaker 1: doesn't retreat from it or feel sorry for himself or 320 00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:11,120 Speaker 1: the team. 321 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:13,840 Speaker 3: And we're also four and oh, keep that in mind. 322 00:15:14,120 --> 00:15:17,120 Speaker 1: Thanks for that, Thanks for the reminder. There's what two left, 323 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: Minnesota and us. 324 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:18,320 Speaker 2: That's it. 325 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 3: We're four and oh and we've beaten Baltimore, Cincinnati, Atlanta 326 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:24,000 Speaker 3: on the road. I think Atlanta's pretty good. And the 327 00:15:24,040 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 3: divisional opponent and the Chargers, I get they were beat up, 328 00:15:26,440 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 3: but it's still a divisional opponent on the road. Those 329 00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 3: are some really hard earned, solid victories. And we have 330 00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:37,400 Speaker 3: some adversity here with injury situations, but you just move ahead, 331 00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 3: you power through it, and you find a way. And 332 00:15:39,320 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 3: we have the absolute best in the business with a 333 00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:45,480 Speaker 3: track record of finding the way despite adverse situations. 334 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,840 Speaker 1: And the next chapter and trying to attack adversity would 335 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:51,320 Speaker 1: be playing the New Orleans Saints, who I also think 336 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: are a really good team. Yeah, they got off to 337 00:15:53,760 --> 00:15:56,840 Speaker 1: an incredible start. They blew out Carolina, goes, well, that's Carolina, 338 00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:59,200 Speaker 1: They're not that good. Then they went to Dallas and 339 00:15:59,240 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: shocked everybody, put up a forty burger on the Cowboys. 340 00:16:02,680 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 2: There. 341 00:16:03,480 --> 00:16:05,720 Speaker 1: Now, they've lost two tough games since then, but it 342 00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: was three to nothing in the fourth quarter against the 343 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:12,160 Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, and that was a rock fight. They lose 344 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 1: it at the very end in the last minute. And 345 00:16:14,320 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: then they lose a game at Atlanta Division opponent and 346 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: do not give up an offensive touchdown and lose that game. 347 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: This is a good New Orleans Saints team. When you 348 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:25,840 Speaker 1: look at them statistically, you can just look they have 349 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 1: the most points scored of any team in the National 350 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:31,000 Speaker 1: Football League on offense, and then on defense when you 351 00:16:31,040 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 1: look at it, they're the best red zone defensive team 352 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: in the league. That kind of stuff gets your attention. 353 00:16:36,360 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 3: Sure does. Alvin Kamara also gets your attention. To me, 354 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 3: Alvin Kamara is the whole key. And this start to 355 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 3: the year has been kind of interesting because I think 356 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,880 Speaker 3: a lot of the teams that we faced have a 357 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:49,880 Speaker 3: focal point guy. Not every team is that way. Like 358 00:16:50,120 --> 00:16:51,960 Speaker 3: I look at the Eagles, I don't necessarily think they 359 00:16:51,960 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 3: have a focal point guy. Sakwan Barkley is really important 360 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:56,720 Speaker 3: to their offense, but they also have DeVante Smith and 361 00:16:56,760 --> 00:16:59,560 Speaker 3: AJ Brown and Jalen Hurtz. Well, all these teams that 362 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 3: we faced early on seemed to have like that focal 363 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 3: point guy. That was the case with Atlanta as Jon Robinson, 364 00:17:05,080 --> 00:17:07,880 Speaker 3: and the Chiefs did an excellent job of shutting him down. 365 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,639 Speaker 3: Last week against the Chargers, it's JK. Dobbins. He was 366 00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:12,920 Speaker 3: like their entire offense. You got to shut him down 367 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 3: and the Chiefs did that with great success. Well, now 368 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 3: it's Alvin Kamara and what a year he's having. He 369 00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 3: has ninety seven touches for five hundred and thirty six 370 00:17:20,560 --> 00:17:24,240 Speaker 3: scrimmage yards and six touchdowns through four games. That would 371 00:17:24,280 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 3: be a really good season for some players, and he's 372 00:17:26,520 --> 00:17:28,880 Speaker 3: done that. Now in four games. He leads the NFL 373 00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:31,760 Speaker 3: in all three categories. Right now, he's touched the ball 374 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:34,200 Speaker 3: and forty six percent of the Saints' offensive plays, so 375 00:17:34,359 --> 00:17:36,919 Speaker 3: like half of their plays, he's touching the football. And 376 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 3: he's recorded thirty eight percent of their total yards as 377 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,840 Speaker 3: a team. And what's interesting if you only watch red 378 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:45,639 Speaker 3: zone or highlights, and to be honest, before this week, 379 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 3: I wasn't watching a ton of Saints football, just kind 380 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,680 Speaker 3: of following what they're doing in terms of highlights. Right well, 381 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 3: you would think they're throwing the ball all over the place. 382 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 3: It's actually the opposite. So they're running the ball at 383 00:17:56,880 --> 00:18:00,119 Speaker 3: the highest rate in the NFL fifty seven percent of 384 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,359 Speaker 3: the time and fifty three percent of the rushes are 385 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:04,320 Speaker 3: kind of to the outside. They don't run up the 386 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,360 Speaker 3: middle at all. And they've been really good on third 387 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,359 Speaker 3: down because they're staying out of third down for the 388 00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 3: most part and staying out of third and long. They've 389 00:18:11,240 --> 00:18:13,919 Speaker 3: been very good making it third and short whenever they 390 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 3: are facing third down, So they run the ball a ton. 391 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 3: They're good on third down, and they don't throw the 392 00:18:18,880 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 3: ball much. They're running at the highest amount in the NFL. 393 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,240 Speaker 3: That means they're throwing at the lowest rate in the NFL. 394 00:18:24,440 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 3: But when they do, they've been very efficient with it. 395 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:28,200 Speaker 3: And that's the key in this game for the Chiefs. 396 00:18:28,240 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 3: You got to stop the run first and foremost and 397 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:33,000 Speaker 3: not let that play action passing game of the Saints 398 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:33,680 Speaker 3: get rolling. 399 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 1: So why the game in Atlanta was a little bit 400 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: surprising because they had not beaten themselves prior to that game. 401 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:41,200 Speaker 2: You mentioned third down. 402 00:18:41,200 --> 00:18:44,399 Speaker 1: There's second in the league in third down offensive percentage. 403 00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 1: Only Washington is better. But where it gets interesting for 404 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,680 Speaker 1: the Chiefs is the fact that the Saints are near 405 00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:54,960 Speaker 1: the top of the league in being plus three in 406 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:58,679 Speaker 1: the giveaway takeaway ratio with eight takeaways in four games. 407 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:01,560 Speaker 1: Now the Chiefs are minus four. We know that's got 408 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,800 Speaker 1: to turn. We just mentioned last year minus eleven and 409 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 1: still win the Super Bowl. Man, you're really working against 410 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,640 Speaker 1: the numbers if you do that, even being minus four 411 00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 1: after four into be four and oher. 412 00:19:11,880 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 2: Is really working against the numbers. 413 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: This is a team that likes to punch it out, 414 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,240 Speaker 1: take it away, and do something with it. Because we 415 00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,439 Speaker 1: mentioned the offensive numbers. Chris Olave is good as well, 416 00:19:21,640 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 1: but this is a nasty defense that likes to punch 417 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: it out, take it away, very similar to what the 418 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:28,200 Speaker 1: Chiefs faced in the Chargers. 419 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:30,159 Speaker 3: They've been good. A lot of old friends on this 420 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:30,960 Speaker 3: defense as well. 421 00:19:31,080 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 2: Reunion two. Yeah, are they going to bring their rings 422 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 2: to the game. 423 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,919 Speaker 3: I don't think so. Okay, maybe I don't think so. 424 00:19:35,920 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 2: Of those hide it in there, Colin Saunders. 425 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:41,360 Speaker 3: It he might. The tyro Matthews having a nice year. 426 00:19:41,400 --> 00:19:44,520 Speaker 3: Two interceptions already and they have six interceptions as a team. 427 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:47,360 Speaker 3: It's a stingy defense and they've been good They've been 428 00:19:47,560 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 3: kind of middle of the pack and a lot of categories, 429 00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 3: but they've been very ben but don't break. They've allowed 430 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 3: hardly any red zone drives at all, fourth fewest in 431 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:59,000 Speaker 3: the NFL with nine allowed, and when teams do get 432 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 3: in the red zone, they're allowing opponent touchdowns just twenty 433 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,360 Speaker 3: two percent of the time, best in the NFL. There 434 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 3: are a couple areas the Chief's offense really needs to 435 00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 3: clean up. It's the turnovers and it's the red zone offense, 436 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:14,439 Speaker 3: and the Saints defense is pretty good at both of 437 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,480 Speaker 3: those things. But it's also a great opportunity for the 438 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:20,160 Speaker 3: Chiefs to turn that around here against these guys, because really, 439 00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: with the Chiefs offense, I get it hasn't fully met 440 00:20:22,760 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 3: our expectations, but a lot of these things seem like 441 00:20:25,840 --> 00:20:28,919 Speaker 3: fixable issues, like things that if we could just correct 442 00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,000 Speaker 3: a couple of things here or there, a play here 443 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,959 Speaker 3: or there, don't fumble in the red zone, or whatever 444 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:36,760 Speaker 3: it may be. The offense is close, and it won't 445 00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:39,280 Speaker 3: be easy against the Saints defense because they're very talented, 446 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:42,840 Speaker 3: But I also know that this offense loves a great challenge, 447 00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:45,280 Speaker 3: and it's an opportunity here to go against a worthy 448 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:48,639 Speaker 3: opponent here in New Orleans defensively and turn those things around. 449 00:20:48,800 --> 00:20:51,359 Speaker 1: Old Raider friend Derek Carr is the quarterback having a 450 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 1: good year efficient but gave clint a Qbac who is 451 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:58,920 Speaker 1: their offensive coordinator, credit for helping Derrick kind of find 452 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: his zone. And last year they were close to getting 453 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 1: to the playoffs, just at the very end they let 454 00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: it slip away, and Carr had some issues at the 455 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 1: end of the year, but he's doing it now now. 456 00:21:09,000 --> 00:21:11,399 Speaker 1: They will close out this way with what they do 457 00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:13,400 Speaker 1: on the defensive side of the ball. There's three guys 458 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,159 Speaker 1: that have at least three and a half sacks or 459 00:21:15,160 --> 00:21:18,720 Speaker 1: at least three sacks. One's the nickelback, Alonte Taylor. He's 460 00:21:18,720 --> 00:21:21,159 Speaker 1: got three and a half sacks by himself. It tells 461 00:21:21,160 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: you aggressive scheme, much like Steve Spagnolo's scheme when your 462 00:21:24,800 --> 00:21:27,040 Speaker 1: d back has three and a half sacks. But there's 463 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:29,359 Speaker 1: a couple others here. Brian Brazzie, remember he was a 464 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,360 Speaker 1: little bit of the draft talk a couple of years 465 00:21:31,359 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 1: ago coming out of Clemson. 466 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:33,880 Speaker 2: He has three sacks. 467 00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:37,920 Speaker 1: And then the guy that because I know he's an enemy, 468 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:41,399 Speaker 1: but Trey Hendrickson to me. He's probably the most underrated player. 469 00:21:41,119 --> 00:21:41,639 Speaker 2: In the AFC. 470 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,399 Speaker 3: Maybe you love Trey hendricks he. 471 00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:45,879 Speaker 1: Why doesn't nobody talk about it. I have found the 472 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: NFC version of Trey Hendrickson and it's Carl Granderson. 473 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, nobody talks about Carl shit eight. 474 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: And a half sacks last year. He's got three this 475 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 1: year in four weeks. And last year they were twenty 476 00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 1: third in the league with the fifth I'm sorry, fifth 477 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 1: worst pressure rates twenty six. 478 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:02,160 Speaker 2: In the league. 479 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,760 Speaker 1: We're thirty two, twenty seventh in the league. But now 480 00:22:05,800 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: they're roaring back. I mean they're tacking the quarterback. They've 481 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 1: got twelve sacks in four games. But it's Granderson who 482 00:22:12,560 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 1: is He's going to put a lot of pressure on 483 00:22:14,240 --> 00:22:15,480 Speaker 1: the chiefs tackles of this game. 484 00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 3: Got to protect. I believe we've only allowed one sack 485 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 3: in our last two games though, and that includes last 486 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:23,200 Speaker 3: week against Khalil Mack and that Chargers front. That's good. 487 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:25,520 Speaker 3: Got to keep that going here though, because you're facing 488 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:29,760 Speaker 3: a very good, opportunistic secondary here in the Saints don't 489 00:22:29,760 --> 00:22:32,440 Speaker 3: want to have Patrick Mahomes under duress the entire game, 490 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 3: So hopefully we can protect against these guys and control 491 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 3: the line of scrimmage On the other side, though, how 492 00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 3: good has our defense been? Even absolutely remarkable? I mean, 493 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,320 Speaker 3: in so many ways, the Chiefs defense kept the Chiefs 494 00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 3: in the game last week against the Chargers. Things could 495 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,639 Speaker 3: have unraveled there when it was ten to nothing, but 496 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:52,080 Speaker 3: they found a way to force six punts four to 497 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,600 Speaker 3: three and outs, missfield goal and a turnover on downs 498 00:22:54,600 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 3: at the three yard line. And our guy Jalen Watson, 499 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:58,880 Speaker 3: who I think is going to join us here pretty soon, 500 00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:00,560 Speaker 3: I was right in the middle of it. I think 501 00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,040 Speaker 3: it was one of his best games as a Chief. 502 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:04,879 Speaker 1: Yeah, I almost had the pick, could have been a 503 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: pick six, But his coverage playing press or he defends 504 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: against the run is outstanding. So why wait, Let's have 505 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:17,520 Speaker 1: a chance now to talk to number thirty five Jalen Watson. Well, 506 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 1: as promised and part of our Attacking Challenges podcast, we 507 00:23:21,119 --> 00:23:24,680 Speaker 1: bring in the perfect Dude, Jalen Watson, number thirty five. 508 00:23:24,720 --> 00:23:26,120 Speaker 2: I don't know what it is about the Chargers. 509 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:27,720 Speaker 1: It gets you fired up, but you have some of 510 00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 1: your best games against him, right right. One of my 511 00:23:30,119 --> 00:23:33,720 Speaker 1: favorite all time regular season calls was your ninety nine 512 00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: yard pick six year rookie year. People keep playing it 513 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: over and over and I love it. But just winning 514 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,640 Speaker 1: that game, showing some toughness as a team and as 515 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:43,960 Speaker 1: a dB group to pull that game. 516 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 4: Off, Yeah, it was a great feeling. You know, the 517 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:49,359 Speaker 4: Chargers they always present so many problems and you got 518 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 4: Herbert sets of talented quarterback and to just go out there, 519 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:57,080 Speaker 4: you know, we didn't have the best first quarter, and 520 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:59,439 Speaker 4: then to not give up any more points, to just 521 00:23:59,520 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 4: show how we stay together, how we unity, and how 522 00:24:02,960 --> 00:24:05,199 Speaker 4: we just fight together to the end and find ways 523 00:24:05,280 --> 00:24:07,040 Speaker 4: to scratch claw and get a win. 524 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:10,120 Speaker 3: So your numbers in coverage were obviously really good, more 525 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,719 Speaker 3: than thirty covered snaps. I think you were targeted five times, 526 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,160 Speaker 3: didn't allow a single catch, two of those on third down. 527 00:24:15,440 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 3: But your run defense was also impressive. You had that 528 00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:20,240 Speaker 3: great play on third and one on Dobbins where third 529 00:24:20,280 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 3: and one they're gonna pick it up and you say no, 530 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,639 Speaker 3: I'm gonna come around the edge and stop them and 531 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 3: they punted. Playing for Spags, I feel like as a 532 00:24:26,320 --> 00:24:28,119 Speaker 3: corner you have to be a good run defender. Can 533 00:24:28,119 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 3: you speak to that and why that's important to you? 534 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, he always preaches you know how our DB's we 535 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,439 Speaker 4: tackle well and it's gonna be hard to you know, 536 00:24:36,520 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 4: get on the field and play in this defense if 537 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 4: you can't. And idb's we do a great job and 538 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,280 Speaker 4: everyone holds each other accountable, and tackling is just a 539 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:48,280 Speaker 4: wal thing. You just have to want to do it. 540 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 4: And all eleven guys buy in, and that's what we do. 541 00:24:51,960 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 3: Not all corners want to tackle, but this guy does. 542 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so all of them do? Close to a 543 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,080 Speaker 1: pick six? Orre you thinking about another charger pictures? 544 00:24:59,400 --> 00:24:59,920 Speaker 2: It's close. 545 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:05,760 Speaker 4: I hate talking about it. I always brag me in 546 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:08,440 Speaker 4: the DBS. You know, we'd be in competition and show 547 00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:11,000 Speaker 4: who had the best hands, and I always said I did. 548 00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 4: But I'm gonna just be humble. Now, be quiet, sit back, 549 00:25:15,359 --> 00:25:17,240 Speaker 4: and you know, just wait for another one. 550 00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: None of them have a ninety nine yard pick six. 551 00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:21,320 Speaker 1: You got scoreboard on them. But I do want to 552 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 1: ask you about, and Matt and I talk about all 553 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,200 Speaker 1: the time the twenty two draft class, your guys, especially 554 00:25:27,280 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 1: the Fab five, but really everybody in that group. You 555 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:33,720 Speaker 1: guys are forty three and zero in the playoffs as defenders. 556 00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 1: What makes the group special? And did you see it 557 00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:40,399 Speaker 1: from the very beginning with your pledge class, so to speak. 558 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,920 Speaker 4: Yes, I promise I seen it. 559 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: It was OTA's. 560 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 4: It was like the second week of OTA's mind You 561 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:51,439 Speaker 4: this defense is so hard to pick up on. And 562 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:55,080 Speaker 4: we used to have meetings in a rookie hotel, just 563 00:25:55,119 --> 00:25:57,440 Speaker 4: the whole Fab five trying to go over to playbook 564 00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:00,720 Speaker 4: and get it all together. And then there was one 565 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 4: practice all five of us practiced really well, and we're like, 566 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,520 Speaker 4: we're going to be really good, and all of us agree, 567 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 4: and just to see it happen, everyone coming into the 568 00:26:11,920 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 4: self is it's a great thing to look at, and 569 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:17,920 Speaker 4: we're just excited and trying to get another one. 570 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,000 Speaker 3: Is there something about all the playoff experience and success 571 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 3: that you guys have as a unit and as a 572 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 3: defense overall that when you're down tending nothing on the 573 00:26:25,359 --> 00:26:28,119 Speaker 3: road against the Chargers, nobody panics. Everyone knows like we 574 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 3: got this. 575 00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:29,280 Speaker 2: Yeah. 576 00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:34,680 Speaker 4: I mean, coach Batz preaches that our leaders we're down 577 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 4: ten zero. Chris came in a huddle and said, this 578 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,480 Speaker 4: is nothing. We've been here before, We've been through worse, 579 00:26:40,800 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 4: and we all knew that the offense was going to 580 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 4: get it clicking. We just got to find a way 581 00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:48,200 Speaker 4: for all three phases to click at the same time, 582 00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,560 Speaker 4: and we'll be a pretty scary team on. 583 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 2: Your ninety nine yardred return. 584 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: I was kind of reading your bio as you're going 585 00:26:54,800 --> 00:26:56,920 Speaker 1: down the field, I said, you know, from cooking Hamburgers 586 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:59,720 Speaker 1: and Augusta Georgia and Juco and fighting through all the 587 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 1: injury to having the career you're having, are their time? 588 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:05,359 Speaker 1: Let me ask you how many times are there you 589 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,760 Speaker 1: just set down, You're by yourself and going, man, what 590 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: a ride this fist? 591 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 2: Do you ever have those feelings? 592 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,920 Speaker 4: Sometimes I do, but I always want so much more 593 00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 4: for myself. I know my potential, I know what I 594 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:22,680 Speaker 4: can be. And watching guys like Trent accomplished what he's 595 00:27:22,720 --> 00:27:25,959 Speaker 4: accomplished so far, and being under Snead and just watching 596 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,680 Speaker 4: those guys go after it, you know, it instilled signing me. 597 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 4: Sneid taught me so much. I you know, miss him 598 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:36,520 Speaker 4: so much. That's my dog there. But it's the next 599 00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 4: man up, and I know I have big shoes to feel. 600 00:27:39,960 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 4: But each and every day I'm trying my best to 601 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,639 Speaker 4: do what I can to, you know, help this team out. 602 00:27:45,760 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 3: You just told our a social team that you were 603 00:27:47,359 --> 00:27:49,440 Speaker 3: thirty five because you were the thirty fifth corner. I 604 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 3: had a thirty six taken in your draft class. How 605 00:27:51,760 --> 00:27:53,880 Speaker 3: does that motivate you because you obviously are a lot 606 00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 3: better than the thirty fifth corner taking that year. 607 00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it put a chip on my shoulder 608 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,840 Speaker 4: coming into the league, just watching so many guys get 609 00:28:01,920 --> 00:28:05,320 Speaker 4: drafted in front of me and me looking at it 610 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 4: as if I should have been drafted a lot earlier. 611 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:10,880 Speaker 4: But each and every game you just have to make 612 00:28:10,960 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 4: everyone that look past you pay for it. 613 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,359 Speaker 1: You guys can talk about the twenty two class. You 614 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 1: guys prepare so well for every week. Final question deals 615 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,359 Speaker 1: with the Saints. Chris Olave is there. Rashid Shaheed seems 616 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,120 Speaker 1: to be underrated. The dude can fly. What about defending 617 00:28:26,160 --> 00:28:26,800 Speaker 1: these guys? 618 00:28:27,680 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 4: I mean we're just starting the playbook and you know, 619 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 4: watching film. We're gonna let Spass cook that's what he 620 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:38,840 Speaker 4: That's what he does every week, and we're gonna entrust 621 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:42,440 Speaker 4: in his game plan and whatever we have I'm sure 622 00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,720 Speaker 4: is gonna be a great game plan as he does 623 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 4: every week. 624 00:28:46,240 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 1: Maybe be another pick six this week, but know this 625 00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:54,160 Speaker 1: number thirty five will be attacking the Saints. Wow, when 626 00:28:54,200 --> 00:28:56,560 Speaker 1: you talk about attacking it. It started his rookie year 627 00:28:56,600 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: with a ninety nine yard pick six against the Chargers, 628 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 1: but even then, he'll come up with the big play 629 00:29:03,040 --> 00:29:05,680 Speaker 1: at a big time. And just to see how much 630 00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: he has grown since a career in college, from junior college, 631 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:13,360 Speaker 1: to go to Wazoo and then to come here and 632 00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: flourish here is just amazing. 633 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:18,920 Speaker 3: Jayalen Watson, he was just really impressive last week. Specifically, 634 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:22,800 Speaker 3: he's targeted five times, zero catches allowed, had two pass breakups, 635 00:29:22,840 --> 00:29:25,520 Speaker 3: both on third down. Then also had that great run 636 00:29:25,560 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 3: stop on third and one where he came around the 637 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:30,360 Speaker 3: edge and tackled JK. Dobbins short of the line to gain. 638 00:29:30,760 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 3: He was great. It's part of a great defensive effort overall. 639 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,520 Speaker 3: How about Chris Jones last week, he sees a backup 640 00:29:36,560 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 3: guard or a backup tackle, He's just foaming at the mouth. 641 00:29:39,560 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 3: He had six pressures, two sacks, of course, both on 642 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 3: third down. He was tremendous. This defense, for some reason, 643 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 3: still does not get the credit it deserves. They've held 644 00:29:47,280 --> 00:29:50,400 Speaker 3: the opposition under twenty eight total points in twenty five 645 00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 3: straight games. That is the longest streak for any team 646 00:29:53,480 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 3: in seventeen years, but you don't hear about him nationally. 647 00:29:57,440 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 3: I don't know why, but it doesn't matter. They just 648 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,280 Speaker 3: keep one then keep putting up great performances and hopefully 649 00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,640 Speaker 3: they'll keep it going. Here against the Saints. 650 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 2: Saints center went down. 651 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 1: So I wonder if Chris Jones a lineup as a 652 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: zero tech this week? He might if he's where's the 653 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 1: weak dog in here? I'm going to go after him. 654 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: And then with Jalen Watson, we talked about Chris Alvey 655 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:22,320 Speaker 1: beal and being really good. Now Rashid Saheat is another one. Uh, 656 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: he fumbled the punt, he had the muff punt, so 657 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: he's going to be coming back looking for a vengeance. 658 00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:29,000 Speaker 1: And he's a talented player as well. So there's some 659 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: challenges there. You want my fund staff though, but' here. Yeah, 660 00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,800 Speaker 1: the Saints have only had eight touchbacks when they're kicking off. 661 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:39,120 Speaker 2: Okay, they're near the bottom of the leg. 662 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: In fact, only I'm going to get this right, I 663 00:30:42,160 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: only the only three teams have fewer, meaning always sings 664 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,160 Speaker 1: touchbacks where it's seventy percent now right, it's not doing 665 00:30:48,200 --> 00:30:48,920 Speaker 1: what we thought it was. 666 00:30:48,880 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 2: Going to do. 667 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 1: Like, oh, everybody's going to be the landing zone. The 668 00:30:51,320 --> 00:30:56,600 Speaker 1: landing zone just thirty thirty thirty three. Yep, not these guys. 669 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 1: Four weeks only eight touchbacks. 670 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,640 Speaker 2: Okay, well, so you have a shot. Had a kickoff 671 00:31:01,680 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 2: return this way? 672 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,760 Speaker 3: Sure, Dave Tobe is excited about that, like, all right, 673 00:31:04,760 --> 00:31:06,680 Speaker 3: we're gonna have a shot at it. It's kind of 674 00:31:06,680 --> 00:31:08,600 Speaker 3: funny how much we talked about the kickoff role in 675 00:31:08,640 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 3: the off season. We really thought it was going to 676 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 3: be a thing where our teams weren't going to just 677 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,960 Speaker 3: surrender the thirty yard line. But so far that's been 678 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,520 Speaker 3: mainly the planet's touchbacks. But I guess not this week. 679 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 3: Let's see what we can do with it. 680 00:31:20,840 --> 00:31:23,440 Speaker 1: Ye up in a block punt against Philly by J. T. Gray, 681 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 1: so you got to be careful there. But they're also 682 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,479 Speaker 1: last in punting, so hey, maybe special teams, you can 683 00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 1: get it done this week. If you're the Kansas City Chiefs, 684 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 1: I do know this. New Orleans is a really good team. 685 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,280 Speaker 1: You and I both agree on that. And the Chiefs 686 00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,680 Speaker 1: are facing some real adversity, but they've faced adversity in 687 00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:42,360 Speaker 1: flashpoints every year since Andy Reid has been head coach. 688 00:31:42,920 --> 00:31:45,040 Speaker 1: But you can be assured of this, they will not 689 00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:46,880 Speaker 1: run from it. They'll attack it.
