1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,040 Speaker 1: We've been saying all season long that you know it's 2 00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: a long season and you know there's still a lot 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: of games to play, but suddenly we're almost at a 4 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: halfway point. 5 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,239 Speaker 2: I mean, is there a sense in the locker room 6 00:00:13,360 --> 00:00:15,560 Speaker 2: it's guys, we got to start doing it now. 7 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:21,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely. I don't think that since has just started 8 00:00:21,440 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 3: just because we lost our fifth game of the season. 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:29,040 Speaker 3: I think it's we felt that way the past couple 10 00:00:29,040 --> 00:00:32,839 Speaker 3: of weeks and for whatever reason, we haven't necessarily been 11 00:00:32,840 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 3: getting the results we expected. I think defense is playing 12 00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:39,160 Speaker 3: really well, and we've got to do our part picking 13 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,000 Speaker 3: it up on offense and going out there scoring points 14 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 3: and touchdowns. And we understand that and we know that, 15 00:00:45,440 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 3: and that's our job is as an offense to go 16 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:49,560 Speaker 3: out there and score points. And at the end of 17 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 3: the day, that's what it comes down to. It doesn't 18 00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:52,920 Speaker 3: necessarily matter how it's going to look, as long as 19 00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: you're putting up points and the end result is what 20 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:58,240 Speaker 3: we want. That's that's all the matter is going forward. 21 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:02,560 Speaker 1: Okay, final question is obviously. 22 00:01:03,680 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 4: There was eight sacks last week. 23 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:10,119 Speaker 5: Is that just Andrew Thomas missing or is that, you know, 24 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:12,840 Speaker 5: just a lot of people made mistakes. 25 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:17,679 Speaker 3: No, I don't think I had much ado with at 26 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 3: being not being out there. I think just kind of 27 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 3: the way the game that was going early. We we 28 00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 3: had some trouble with protection and I think they kind 29 00:01:30,560 --> 00:01:33,399 Speaker 3: of hurt us in our past game. I think from 30 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 3: our perspectives offensive lignment, I think it didn't help our 31 00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:40,760 Speaker 3: quarterback and him being down the ground that many times, 32 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 3: you know, in the first second quarter is not really 33 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 3: what he's used to so far this year. So I 34 00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:47,800 Speaker 3: think there's a lot of blame to put on us, 35 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:49,960 Speaker 3: as you know, the front five up there early on, 36 00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:54,720 Speaker 3: and eventually we did settle but later on, probably late 37 00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 3: second quarter, but at that point kind of felt like 38 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:59,720 Speaker 3: the game started to slip too much. Got to do 39 00:01:59,760 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: a better job establishing the run game, so we stay 40 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: out of those passing situations and I and giving up 41 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: baits sacksure you're not gonna win many games giving up 42 00:02:07,840 --> 00:02:10,920 Speaker 3: bit sacks in this league. And we understand that, and 43 00:02:10,919 --> 00:02:14,120 Speaker 3: we all that as offensive line, and uh, we got 44 00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,000 Speaker 3: to work to be better for sure, and that's kind 45 00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 3: of unacceptable in our offensive line room. 46 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 2: Thank you. Yell, Hey John, Hi, I want to ask 47 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 2: you a question, what was your perspective of Dexter Lawrence 48 00:02:31,960 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 2: as an opponent when you were with the Packers, and 49 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,440 Speaker 2: then how did that change maybe in the summer in 50 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 2: training camp, and maybe how did that change after watching 51 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: him the first several games this year as a teammate. 52 00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:48,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, Dexter has been a force in this league since 53 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 3: he's came. He's come in since day one every year. 54 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:56,520 Speaker 3: Kind of looking out of the schedule, you're kind of 55 00:02:56,520 --> 00:02:59,240 Speaker 3: looking and thinking about all the guys he had coming up. 56 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 3: And Uh, played the Giants twice with Dexter as my opponent, 57 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 3: and that was always kind of one of those games 58 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 3: that you have circle to knowing that you're gonna get 59 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:12,240 Speaker 3: one of the best in the business and you're gonna 60 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:14,480 Speaker 3: have to bring your a game when it comes to that. 61 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: But coming here being on this side, seeing him as 62 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: a as more than just a player, as a as 63 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 3: a teammate, as a person, he's phenomenal in all aspects. 64 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:31,080 Speaker 3: He just demands so much attention when he's out there 65 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 3: in the football field. I think it would be not 66 00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 3: very smart to leave him a one on one block 67 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 3: with a with a center or guard, and he requires 68 00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 3: a lot of attention. He's constantly getting double teamed and 69 00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 3: you see how how explosive he is and how much 70 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,640 Speaker 3: how good of a player he is, and I think 71 00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 3: he's probably tops in the league in sacks and double 72 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: teams acquired, and it's just really special, really special player, 73 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 3: really special person. And happy to have him over here 74 00:04:04,600 --> 00:04:06,880 Speaker 3: and only have to go against him during the weekdays. 75 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 2: Is you know, all those things you said about him 76 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,880 Speaker 2: obviously are true, but did you think that it would 77 00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:16,120 Speaker 2: that he would be leading the league in sacks with nine? 78 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 2: I mean, he's an interior pass rusher that just really 79 00:04:18,520 --> 00:04:20,640 Speaker 2: you know, I know all that other stuff is right, 80 00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 2: but he's never had you know, he's on pace for 81 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,599 Speaker 2: you know, twenty something sacks this year. I mean, is 82 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 2: that something that even you know, someone like he was 83 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: gone against him, looks at and says, I didn't know 84 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 2: that he was going to have nine sacks after you know, 85 00:04:32,120 --> 00:04:32,760 Speaker 2: seven games. 86 00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 3: No, I don't. I don't think anybody ever would you know, 87 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 3: suspect a nose tackle. To be leading the league in 88 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 3: sacks and nine sacks is really impressive only through uh 89 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 3: seven seven games so far, So for him to be 90 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:51,640 Speaker 3: doing what he's doing at such a high level, and 91 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:55,280 Speaker 3: it's It's really fun knowing that the defense is going 92 00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,960 Speaker 3: out there and play well, and we got to do 93 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,880 Speaker 3: our job on offense to compliment them and put up 94 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:01,320 Speaker 3: so they can keep playing like that. 95 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: Thank you. 96 00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: John art Stable. 97 00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:10,360 Speaker 3: Hey, John, how's going good? 98 00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:12,799 Speaker 1: Uh, you've talked about it several times. 99 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 6: I know I've I've asked you this year just in 100 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 6: terms of taking back to last year for the team 101 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 6: you were on, and just the idea of how you 102 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 6: guys were able to kind of come out of what 103 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 6: people would consider an NFL abyss and make it all 104 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 6: the way to the playoffs. 105 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 1: Who really be playing well? How do you compartmentalize the 106 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: emotions that you're dealing with on a weekly basis, from 107 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: the highs of winning games to the losing games like 108 00:05:37,200 --> 00:05:40,039 Speaker 1: you have the last two weeks versus the calendar and 109 00:05:40,080 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 1: the idea of how the games just keep ticking off 110 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: and like you said, it's been around for a while, 111 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,400 Speaker 1: this urgency. How do you kind of deal with that, 112 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: you know, the one versus the other. 113 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 3: Yeah, I hate to try to compare the two things, 114 00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:59,800 Speaker 3: but last year the team I was on, we were 115 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,039 Speaker 3: two and five at this point of the year as well, 116 00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,799 Speaker 3: just like we are here, we're two and five here, 117 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,239 Speaker 3: going to Week eight and a tough matchup, tough matchup 118 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: Monday night in Pittsburgh, and both scenarios the last two seasons. 119 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 3: This is definitely not where you want to be. But 120 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 3: this isn't This doesn't mean that you're dead. The season's over. 121 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:22,120 Speaker 3: There's still a lot to play for. It only takes 122 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:24,880 Speaker 3: seven to eight wins to, you know, get a playoff 123 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 3: spot in this league. And I think we're definitely capable 124 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 3: of doing that the rest of the way. And uh, 125 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,400 Speaker 3: it just comes back to taking it day by day 126 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:36,200 Speaker 3: and rallying around the guys in the locker room and 127 00:06:36,240 --> 00:06:37,600 Speaker 3: making sure everybody keeps the faith. 128 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:37,960 Speaker 7: Uh. 129 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 3: We have a lot of really strong veteran players, veteran 130 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 3: presence in those locker room, so I know that we're 131 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 3: gonna do our best to keep everybody, the younger guys, 132 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 3: everybody else in high spirits.

And that's 137 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,720 Speaker 3: what it starts with winning each winning each practice and 138 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,359 Speaker 3: then that translating into winning every game going forward. And 139 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 3: it doesn't have to be every game, but you know, 140 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: we got to train a couple together for sure. 141 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:14,720 Speaker 4: Thanks. 142 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 2: Yep, we'll take three more. 143 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:22,920 Speaker 4: Mark Cannazero, Hey, John, thanks for doing this.

What do you see in 146 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 4: the Steelers defense and how difficult is that place to 147 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,920 Speaker 4: play in Pittsburgh. 148 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:39,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Steelers, I think have been one of the 149 00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:44,040 Speaker 3: probably one of the best examples of consistency and uh 150 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: in this league. They've been doing it just very well, 151 00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 3: very solid for so long, and their their defense hasn't 152 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:56,840 Speaker 3: changed in forever, and they have they have the right guys, 153 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,520 Speaker 3: they have the right culture, and they got they got 154 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:02,440 Speaker 3: playmakers all over the defense, and that's what they pride 155 00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 3: themselves on over there in Pittsburgh.

Uh So I just worrying for 175 00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:10,199 Speaker 5: you personally, like what was that adjustment like last week 176 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 5: being at somebody different And do you think that by 177 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:14,760 Speaker 5: the end of that game that you guys maybe you know, 178 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 5: found something you can kind of carry over into next 179 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:19,319 Speaker 5: week that you know you've kind of settled in now 180 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 5: with this new offensive line, or anticipating that there might 181 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 5: be more changes even this week. 182 00:09:24,640 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I've I've been fortunate enough to get 183 00:09:27,960 --> 00:09:34,240 Speaker 3: some snaps play next to Josh a Zudu over Ota 184 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: is a little bit of training camp, just kind of 185 00:09:36,920 --> 00:09:39,959 Speaker 3: mixing people around, trying to you know, feel everybody out 186 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:43,599 Speaker 3: on how everybody works together. But I don't anticipate in 187 00:09:43,600 --> 00:09:48,520 Speaker 3: any new changes. I think going out there, you're first 188 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: first start of the year, first second drive. Having one 189 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:58,720 Speaker 3: blunder doesn't mean this the season's over for anybody. Yeah, 190 00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 3: eight sax is in a acceptable and we know those 191 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,280 Speaker 3: offensive line and definitely a lot of things that we 192 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:07,480 Speaker 3: could do better and make Daniel feel more comfortable back there, 193 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:11,920 Speaker 3: and and still you know, more confidence in our play callers, 194 00:10:11,960 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 3: you know, not have to feel like we have to 195 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,720 Speaker 3: throw the ball so much, and we can you know, 196 00:10:16,840 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 3: hand the ball off and gain three four yards to carry. 197 00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:23,360 Speaker 3: But going forward, I feel we feel really comfortable with 198 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 3: Josh out there. He did a really he did really 199 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,160 Speaker 3: well once he settled in after one of those drives, 200 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:33,280 Speaker 3: and I feel like we held up relatively well later 201 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 3: on in the game. But you know, at that point 202 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:37,000 Speaker 3: it's too late and we we just got to start 203 00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 3: out the game, you know, way better than we did, 204 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,720 Speaker 3: and I think kind of rattled our quarterback, which is, 205 00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 3: you know, our fault, not his fault at all. And 206 00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 3: the play calling, which again I feel like, goes back 207 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:49,720 Speaker 3: on us. 208 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 1: Thanks Man. 209 00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 8: Fun, Hey John, what's going on? 210 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:55,959 Speaker 2: Man? 211 00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 3: Doing well? Are you good? 212 00:10:58,480 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 8: I'm curious what is your advice to a player like 213 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,920 Speaker 8: josh I'm sure you know, like most young offensive lineman 214 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 8: you have you have struggles early on in your career. 215 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:09,960 Speaker 8: What do you say to him about trying to learn 216 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 8: that position on the fly and also at the same 217 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 8: time trying to build his confidence? 218 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, josh is you know, he's not young, 219 00:11:19,160 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 3: but he's a younger player. He's really talented, and he's 220 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:25,760 Speaker 3: really smart. He knows his offense really well. He's been 221 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 3: in a really long time. So there's honestly not much 222 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 3: that he needs. I think for him, it's just going 223 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:35,560 Speaker 3: out there and feeling comfortable and executing and uh, to 224 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: be honest, I didn't really have to say much, Like 225 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,160 Speaker 3: even kind of day one, being in there, it wasn't 226 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 3: like all right, like here we go, new left tackle. 227 00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:44,400 Speaker 3: I felt really comfortable, had all the confidence in the world. 228 00:11:44,440 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 3: And Joshua go out there and you know, play well, 229 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 3: and I think he did, and it's just gonna get 230 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:52,040 Speaker 3: better each and every week. And uh, you know, obviously 231 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,640 Speaker 3: it's it's tough to replace our starting left tackle on 232 00:11:55,760 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 3: captain h At, but I feel like Josh is a 233 00:11:59,160 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 3: great replacement. He's just gonna get better every week. And 234 00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 3: that's his mindset. And he's always looking to improve on 235 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:06,760 Speaker 3: whatever it is, whether it's in the weight room or 236 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,760 Speaker 3: anything with his body. He's always on top of the playbook. 237 00:12:10,800 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 3: And he's just a really good pro. And uh, I 238 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 3: don't I don't see anything necessarily glaring that's gonna, you know, 239 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 3: take away from his progress going forward. 240 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,240 Speaker 7: And then I know you're at you're playing left guard 241 00:12:23,480 --> 00:12:24,640 Speaker 7: and t J. 242 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 8: Watts on the other side primarily. 243 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,200 Speaker 7: But is he a player that, even though you're on 244 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 7: the other side, that you have to keep an eye 245 00:12:33,559 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 7: on like the whole time, Like, does he you know, 246 00:12:36,520 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 7: just keep an eye maybe he moves. Maybe whatever he's doing, 247 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 7: no matter what, it affects you and the hole in 248 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 7: the line as a whole. 249 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 3: For sure. Yeah, uh yeah. TJ mainly plays over the 250 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 3: right tackle, but they have shown to you know, move 251 00:12:50,320 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 3: him as one of those floaters kind of in the 252 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,640 Speaker 3: middle of the defense and he can kind of pick 253 00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: and choose whatever gap or whatever guy he wants to 254 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,160 Speaker 3: play against. So that's something that you kind of always 255 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 3: have to be ready for. But I think going forward, 256 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,280 Speaker 3: like he's one of the premier pass rushers in this league, 257 00:13:05,280 --> 00:13:08,840 Speaker 3: and if you're gonna keep you know, only two hands 258 00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:11,400 Speaker 3: on him the whole game, like he might get his 259 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 3: But I think I think our offense and our coach 260 00:13:13,840 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 3: are gonna put a great plan in for him, like 261 00:13:16,160 --> 00:13:19,599 Speaker 3: most teams to do when they go against him. And uh, 262 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:21,680 Speaker 3: Jermaine's played against him a couple of times, and I 263 00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 3: know he's really confident going against him, and it's gonna 264 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,520 Speaker 3: be a great battle between two great players and I'm 265 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 3: excited to watch it.
