1
00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,720
Speaker 1: Welcome into the Ravens Press Pass Podcast. The Ravens have

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:08,240
Speaker 1: their season come into a closed Sunday night in Pittsburgh,

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:12,160
Speaker 1: losing twenty six to twenty four to the Steelers. Steelers

4
00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:14,840
Speaker 1: won the AFC North and the Ravens had to grapple

5
00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,560
Speaker 1: with the disappointment of that game. They had their final

6
00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: team meeting on Monday, and the players also cleaned out

7
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: their lockers before heading into the offseason. During that locker

8
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:26,439
Speaker 1: clean up period, we heard from a number of players,

9
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:28,600
Speaker 1: including full back Patrick Accard.

10
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:35,080
Speaker 2: So when you guys have it seems like third straight

11
00:00:35,159 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 2: year where you know it comes down to one pivot

12
00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 2: play and how does it.

13
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,479
Speaker 3: Get easier at all dealing with these or hell of

14
00:00:43,520 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 3: the emotions.

15
00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:47,839
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think it gets any easier. I think

16
00:00:47,880 --> 00:00:52,000
Speaker 4: it's just kind of just shocks here. It's just that

17
00:00:53,240 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 4: the whole season comes down to one play, and just

18
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 4: especially this year, how we started out one to five

19
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:00,400
Speaker 4: and so many guys doubled injuries early on in the

20
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 4: air and we were able to put ourselves in the

21
00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 4: position to make the playoffs. Of the last game, the

22
00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:06,360
Speaker 4: last player of the game.

23
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 5: Just hurts.

24
00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 4: I just I feel I feel for the fans of

25
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,319
Speaker 4: the city, just the heartaches after just years after years,

26
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 4: and it always seems like start the year, we always

27
00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:20,800
Speaker 4: have a great group that I feel like we underperform

28
00:01:20,840 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 4: just with the talent that we have, and I feel

29
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 4: like the fans is are better, and it's just hard.

30
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,080
Speaker 4: It's just hard to just always just seem like it's

31
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:33,840
Speaker 4: just one player that ends up just defining our season.

32
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 4: But I mean it's not. It's never just one player.

33
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,000
Speaker 4: There's seventeen games that we felt like we should have won,

34
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 4: the majority.

35
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,200
Speaker 6: Of passionating and there's a lot of talk about John Harball.

36
00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:47,559
Speaker 5: Is he is, He's still the guy to lead this team.

37
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:49,840
Speaker 5: You've played for him longer than most of the people

38
00:01:49,880 --> 00:01:50,320
Speaker 5: in this room.

39
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 7: I mean, could you just sort of speak to way

40
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:52,760
Speaker 7: you think of him as a coach.

41
00:01:52,920 --> 00:01:58,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, Super grateful and appreciative of Harba. He's a big

42
00:01:58,120 --> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 4: reason why. Here's a big reason why I think I

43
00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,680
Speaker 4: had a chance to play fullback. You know, I was

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 4: an undrafted defensive lineman at of Maine and he could

45
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 4: have just looked at me as that, but he saw

46
00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,160
Speaker 4: something in me and gave him the opportunity to make

47
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:11,880
Speaker 4: this team. And I just have a lot of respect

48
00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 4: for him. I think he's a great leader. I think

49
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,960
Speaker 4: he's a great coach, and I would love to keep

50
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:20,519
Speaker 4: playing for him. And I know how much he means

51
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,360
Speaker 4: to the guys in his locker room and to this organization,

52
00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 4: and he just loves football.

53
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,840
Speaker 5: He loves us. So that's all you really want out

54
00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:28,400
Speaker 5: of a head coach.

55
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:30,079
Speaker 3: I'll pat.

56
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 5: I mean a minute ago, you used the word underperform.

57
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 8: In some of these seasons, obviously Becaus.

58
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 5: Have been great teams.

59
00:02:37,080 --> 00:02:40,560
Speaker 8: Is is there something that you could put a finger

60
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 8: on that leads to that, I mean, or is.

61
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 5: It just just sort of elusive?

62
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:50,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's you know, just throughout the years of just

63
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:52,519
Speaker 4: how our scenes ended, how our season went, you always

64
00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,560
Speaker 4: just think, like, what what is it? What is the

65
00:02:55,600 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 4: reason why we're not getting over the hump or you know,

66
00:02:59,800 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 4: I said underperforming, Like what is the reason? It is

67
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 4: so hard to pinpoint it. There's just so many things

68
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,799
Speaker 4: that I think play into it, and it's really hard

69
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,880
Speaker 4: to explain. I think it's just in moments, we just

70
00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 4: have to just execute and make the plays and and

71
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 4: unfortunately it just doesn't seem you know, in those games

72
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 4: that we do that, and it's just it's disappointing, but

73
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 4: sometimes this is how football goes.

74
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 9: I think the close losses in recent years the way

75
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 9: and if they just leave scars, and if so, does

76
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 9: it make it hard to break through kind of that

77
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:32,600
Speaker 9: scar tissue.

78
00:03:32,200 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 4: To get over the home I guess it depends on

79
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 4: the person. I think. I think, if anything, you just

80
00:03:40,760 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 4: have to look at as a as a lesson, something

81
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 4: to fuel you, to drive you to improve so that

82
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,520
Speaker 4: when again those moments again, that it doesn't happen. But

83
00:03:51,560 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 4: I think it depends on the person. Some people take

84
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,760
Speaker 4: it a way harder. Some people need time, some people

85
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 4: might need therapy, some people might need God.

86
00:03:57,920 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 5: You know, it's just a until he get over it.

87
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 4: Because as you know, we put a lot into this

88
00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 4: game or bodies or mind or spirit, and we all

89
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 4: want to win.

90
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 5: We all want a super Bowl, and we fall short.

91
00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 4: It's you have to look in the your mirror and

92
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,560
Speaker 4: yourself and you know, try to think of what you

93
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 4: could have done better. And that's what I always try

94
00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 4: to do. I always try to look at myself and

95
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,880
Speaker 4: not point fingers at any coaches or any players or

96
00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 4: or anything like that. You know, for me, I missed

97
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,400
Speaker 4: six games to start the year, and I felt like

98
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 4: if I was healthy and I was able to play

99
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 4: at I personally don't think we're going to be one

100
00:04:27,920 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 4: and five. I think we would have won some of

101
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:33,039
Speaker 4: those games. So that's why that's why I look at myself.

102
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:38,080
Speaker 8: You know, for the season, this team was a super

103
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:42,359
Speaker 8: Bowl you know pick and trendy pick. You know, based

104
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:45,360
Speaker 8: on the roster and everything. Do you feel like, I mean,

105
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:48,960
Speaker 8: obviously so much as to be determined, you guys feel

106
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 8: one offseason way for being that team again and playing

107
00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:53,400
Speaker 8: at a super Bowl level.

108
00:04:54,839 --> 00:04:56,320
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that and that and that's what I mean.

109
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:58,200
Speaker 4: We have so much talent on this team, and it's

110
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,359
Speaker 4: just disappointing that we're not able to be the team

111
00:05:03,480 --> 00:05:07,160
Speaker 4: that's able to execute and win games when we need

112
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:11,840
Speaker 4: to win games. Yeah, I mean I think I think

113
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 4: as long as we have Lamar Jackson, I feel like

114
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,400
Speaker 4: this team can win a super Bowl. And I guess

115
00:05:15,480 --> 00:05:18,200
Speaker 4: the biggest thing is he's he makes this thing go.

116
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:21,599
Speaker 4: And and then also to have Derek, I mean, just

117
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 4: having those two, that's a big reason why I even

118
00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:25,920
Speaker 4: signed back last year is just because like that's like

119
00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,359
Speaker 4: a dream backfield to have Lamar and Derek and to

120
00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 4: play with those guys, and I feel like as long

121
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,520
Speaker 4: as they're here, this team has a short no matter,

122
00:05:33,839 --> 00:05:34,719
Speaker 4: no matter who else.

123
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,919
Speaker 9: Is way, Who do you see for your future here?

124
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:39,160
Speaker 4: I mean I would love to come back. I know

125
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:40,760
Speaker 4: I would love to retire as a Raven and be

126
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 4: here for my whole career. But that's obviously an upt

127
00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:46,679
Speaker 4: to me. It's up to who's here, who wants me here?

128
00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,920
Speaker 4: And I would love to be here.

129
00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 6: Do you think do you.

130
00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,839
Speaker 10: Think it could play out someone similarly to last offseason?

131
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:55,279
Speaker 5: Left you go on?

132
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 4: Yeah, the last two times there was a free agent,

133
00:05:58,279 --> 00:06:00,880
Speaker 4: you know that the Ravens want to be back right away.

134
00:06:00,920 --> 00:06:04,080
Speaker 4: So I feel like that could happen again if it

135
00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:09,320
Speaker 4: just history repeats itself. And you know, I think I

136
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:11,719
Speaker 4: had a good year. I think I showed my value

137
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 4: to his team and I showed that I want to

138
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 4: be back. So it's just conversations that need to be had.

139
00:06:18,520 --> 00:06:22,279
Speaker 11: That he is bend over the weekend at your positional coach,

140
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,479
Speaker 11: George Gautsas I've become to be able to see at

141
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:26,760
Speaker 11: Georgia Tech, has he talked to you at all about

142
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 11: those plans?

143
00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:28,560
Speaker 5: I think? Is what is he meant in your own

144
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 5: development here.

145
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, we found it out a couple of days ago

146
00:06:32,440 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 4: on Twitter. He didn't tell us yet. I think I

147
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,960
Speaker 4: think he was just waiting to tell us. I think

148
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,240
Speaker 4: he didn't This is my words on his I think

149
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,960
Speaker 4: he just didn't want to be distraction to us because

150
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:44,680
Speaker 4: obviously we had a big game. But yeah, he you know,

151
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:46,840
Speaker 4: coached me for four years, coach our group, you know,

152
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,320
Speaker 4: all all all of us were here with him, and

153
00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:55,040
Speaker 4: we felt like he was a coach that coaches hard

154
00:06:55,279 --> 00:06:57,880
Speaker 4: coaches lately, didn't take us, didn't take it too seriously,

155
00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,480
Speaker 4: but made sure that we were all together, make sure

156
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:02,039
Speaker 4: we knew.

157
00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 5: What we were doing.

158
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:05,120
Speaker 4: And I felt like it was a great coach. And

159
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,760

00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:27,800
Speaker 4: last long guess tight end room.

167
00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,600
Speaker 6: I mean, you guys have been so tight knit for

168
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,880
Speaker 6: years now, and I say it and Mark and Charlie,

169
00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:38,280
Speaker 6: and I know Mark's coming back, but just does it.

170
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 8: Do you feel a sense of just an ending for

171
00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:44,240
Speaker 8: for this group It's becomes up tight over the year.

172
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, you just you just never know, you know, especially

173
00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:51,200
Speaker 4: Isaiah and Charlie. I feel like they played really well.

174
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,640
Speaker 4: I feel like they've had good careers here. You know,

175
00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:58,040
Speaker 4: hopefully they signed back, but I think they're all going

176
00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 4: to have, you know, a good market when they hit

177
00:07:59,920 --> 00:08:02,760
Speaker 4: for agency. And I'm excited for them. I'm excited for

178
00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,720
Speaker 4: their families. I'm excited to see how their careers play out.

179
00:08:05,760 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 4: I think they all deserve, you know, create contracts. I'm

180
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,480
Speaker 4: going to miss those guys if if, regardless, if whatever happens,

181
00:08:15,600 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 4: hopefully we're together. But yeah, I'm just you know, just

182
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:23,920
Speaker 4: really excited for them. I feel like they deserve what

183
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:29,800
Speaker 4: they've put out as a product for themselves, for this team. Yeah,

184
00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:32,480
Speaker 4: just just really just excited for the future. I'm looking

185
00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 4: forward to see what happens with them. Thanks, Thanks, thanks

186
00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:36,320
Speaker 4: you guys.

187
00:08:36,640 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: We also heard from Better and outside linebacker Kyle Man.

188
00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,320
Speaker 10: What about the journey though, I mean, you guys, bumps

189
00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,800
Speaker 10: back for one and five to go seven to three

190
00:08:45,880 --> 00:08:48,320
Speaker 10: and have a shot there to make the postseason.

191
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 12: How would you describe the journey this season?

192
00:08:57,240 --> 00:09:04,480
Speaker 13: Honestly, for me, it's not exactly a fun journey going

193
00:09:04,520 --> 00:09:09,480
Speaker 13: through it, just cause I've been battling from just a

194
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:13,720
Speaker 13: standpoint all season, just the behind the sta scene stuff

195
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:19,000
Speaker 13: that no one sees and different things like that. And yeah,

196
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:21,439
Speaker 13: I mean, if you don't win the last game, it's

197
00:09:21,480 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 13: a failure, especially with uh the expectations that uh we

198
00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:30,840
Speaker 13: have for ourselves, not the outside world but individually that

199
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:35,360
Speaker 13: we have and then collectively the standard and what we

200
00:09:35,400 --> 00:09:36,360
Speaker 13: wanted to accomplish.

201
00:09:36,520 --> 00:09:38,440
Speaker 6: So yeah, kind.

202
00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 4: Of thinking guys like back on the uh how able

203
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,360
Speaker 4: to find a muniferent consistency where.

204
00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:48,520
Speaker 5: You could read through guys. You know, I mean, I

205
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 5: has a long winded question, but I just sing one.

206
00:09:55,840 --> 00:10:02,640
Speaker 13: Comprimary football stands out to me turnovers and games, not

207
00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 13: getting turnovers and games. I mean there there's so much

208
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 13: that goes into I can't pinpoint one thing. Yeah.

209
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 5: Sorry, that was a very good way to answer the question.

210
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 14: So well, what does that process look like for you

211
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:19,880
Speaker 14: this all season?

212
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:20,520
Speaker 5: Uh?

213
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 13: You know, conversations and you know, I don't know, I've

214
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 13: I've been in this situation a lot of times, and

215
00:10:29,920 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 13: every time it seems like it's different. So it's kind

216
00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:38,080
Speaker 13: of a cool wait and see game and yeah, we'll see.

217
00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 6: Do you wanna play next season or there's here.

218
00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:41,960
Speaker 5: Or here anywhere?

219
00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, I I believe so I I don't wanna

220
00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:49,280
Speaker 13: make any uh decision right now. It's too early to say,

221
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:54,079
Speaker 13: especially after emotional game like that was last night, to

222
00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,400
Speaker 13: say I'm retiring. I'm gonna keep playing. I think I'm

223
00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,840
Speaker 13: just gonna keep my options open and keep an open

224
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 13: mind and just have a conversations. But definitely would like

225
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:07,439
Speaker 13: to be back with the rape if that was possible,

226
00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:11,040
Speaker 13: and you know, hopefully it will be conversations.

227
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 5: What we had.

228
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:18,480
Speaker 1: Next we heard from a tight end Isaiah likely process

229
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 1: the suddenness of the.

230
00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:20,800
Speaker 5: End of the season.

231
00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,559
Speaker 4: Uh really just you know, understand, you know what we've

232
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,640
Speaker 4: all been through this year. Really just trying to see

233
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 4: for how to move really into keep it one step in.

234
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,439
Speaker 6: Front of you.

235
00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 4: I mean, I understand that you know, you gotta watch

236
00:11:33,040 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 4: the film, gotta be honest yourself and really just understand that.

237
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:36,560
Speaker 6: You know, the next day.

238
00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,280
Speaker 1: Comes obviously said this last season, How do you go

239
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:41,280
Speaker 1: about that process?

240
00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:47,920
Speaker 4: And uh, I really leave it to my easy. I mean,

241
00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 4: I tell you, I feel like everybody says of another

242
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 4: answer like that, but I mean it's honestly my first

243
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 4: time ever not knowing, So just really just keep it

244
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,640
Speaker 4: one from in front of the other. I mean, blessed

245
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 4: to be, you know, getting out of season healthy, being

246
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 4: able to just you know, put everything I do on

247
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:03,920
Speaker 4: tape and really just going from them.

248
00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: There's not just with you, but just changes that every

249
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:09,079
Speaker 1: year with the team. Is that what makes people the

250
00:12:09,360 --> 00:12:11,920
Speaker 1: day like there's so challenging is knowing that this team

251
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 1: for a lot of different guys, it is different in.

252
00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:15,560
Speaker 6: The future for sure.

253
00:12:15,640 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 4: And I feel like that's what a lot of fans

254
00:12:18,280 --> 00:12:20,480
Speaker 4: don't understand, Like you never have the same team twice.

255
00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:22,959
Speaker 4: And I'll say, like you always have people that leave,

256
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,120
Speaker 4: whether it's free agency, while its people retiring, whether people

257
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,880
Speaker 4: just you know, just not hear no more. I mean,

258
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 4: injuries happen, people go, get money, everything, et cetera, et cetera.

259
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:35,199
Speaker 4: I feel like, you know, having a talented team that

260
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 4: we had and coming up short, I mean it's always

261
00:12:38,080 --> 00:12:39,319
Speaker 4: you know, devastating.

262
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:41,800
Speaker 8: Isaia, Why do you think the season unfolded the.

263
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 5: Way that it did.

264
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:47,079
Speaker 4: I just say, you know, fundamentals, and I feel like,

265
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,319
Speaker 4: you know, speaking for the offensive wise, is just you know,

266
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,559
Speaker 4: having drives, will have explosive plays where it's you know,

267
00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,400
Speaker 4: two play touchdowns or something like that, or it's will

268
00:12:55,440 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 4: have one penalty or one lost yards play where it's

269
00:12:57,920 --> 00:13:00,679
Speaker 4: you know, installed drivings. You know, having supposed to offense

270
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:02,439
Speaker 4: as we have. I tell everybody, like, I feel like

271
00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:03,800
Speaker 4: our offense is score every time.

272
00:13:03,679 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 5: We get the ball. Is the place you want to continue?

273
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:09,520
Speaker 5: Is this the place you want to continue through? Sure?

274
00:13:09,760 --> 00:13:11,439
Speaker 4: I mean at the end of the day, I mean,

275
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,120
Speaker 4: this is the team that took a chance on me

276
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 4: coming out of colleges. And I tell the Ravens and

277
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:17,760
Speaker 4: tell the fans every time I get a chance to that,

278
00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:19,959
Speaker 4: I give y'all everything I got because y'all are the

279
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,480
Speaker 4: ones that took a chance on me when I came out.

280
00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 5: How do you look back on.

281
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:23,920
Speaker 12: This year for you?

282
00:13:23,960 --> 00:13:25,800
Speaker 1: I know you started hurt and then you work your

283
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 1: way back, but how do you look at.

284
00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 12: This this season for you? On the individual?

285
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,280
Speaker 4: I say a blessing and I say that just because

286
00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:35,160
Speaker 4: of all that adversity I went through, whether it was

287
00:13:35,440 --> 00:13:39,600
Speaker 4: you know, negative plays really just you know, adding up

288
00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:43,040
Speaker 4: on adversity injury wise, really just you know, just walking

289
00:13:43,080 --> 00:13:45,599
Speaker 4: with God. Understand that you know everything that I go

290
00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:47,520
Speaker 4: through is for a reason, and understand that you know

291
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 4: that never dwells on the type of player I am.

292
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:51,800
Speaker 4: I know who I am at the end of day.

293
00:13:51,800 --> 00:13:52,880
Speaker 4: I know what I do at the end of day,

294
00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:53,360
Speaker 4: and I know what I.

295
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 5: Give to a team.

296
00:13:55,360 --> 00:13:58,200
Speaker 1: Next, we heard from a tight end Charlie Kolar.

297
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:03,640
Speaker 4: Last game, kind of like the encapsulation of the whole season,

298
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 4: you know, you know, the saying, good teams find a

299
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,679
Speaker 4: way to win, and we just didn't do that enough

300
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:10,079
Speaker 4: this year.

301
00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 5: Just all you know, all three phases.

302
00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:16,480
Speaker 4: You know, you gotta find ways to play compromary football,

303
00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:20,960
Speaker 4: help each other out. I don't know it it hurts, man,

304
00:14:21,120 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 4: but yeah, I just did do quite enough.

305
00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 5: I appreciate it.

306
00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 3: Like what was the message like.

307
00:14:26,320 --> 00:14:29,200
Speaker 15: Today in the team meeting and I just after a

308
00:14:29,320 --> 00:14:30,360
Speaker 15: nice sleep thinking about it.

309
00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,560
Speaker 5: Yeah, I like too much.

310
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 4: But it's I can't say much, you know, it's you

311
00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:42,960
Speaker 4: try to try to be, you know, grateful for the

312
00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:43,760
Speaker 4: team and stuff.

313
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:43,960
Speaker 16: You know.

314
00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 4: One of the saddest parts about the NFL is, you know,

315
00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,960
Speaker 4: if you return to the same team, you know, forty

316
00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 4: percent of it is different, and then a lot of

317
00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:53,880
Speaker 4: guys being different teams. A lot of guys like myself

318
00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:56,320
Speaker 4: are in contract situations. Don't know what it is so

319
00:14:56,440 --> 00:14:58,000
Speaker 4: hard about does a good job, you know, trying to.

320
00:15:01,880 --> 00:15:02,560
Speaker 5: Tell one to be.

321
00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:04,800
Speaker 4: Grateful, tell a love one and you can't can't take

322
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 4: away the pain that let me get Jersey before you leave.

323
00:15:12,680 --> 00:15:15,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, but it was me. He just it's a tough year.

324
00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 5: I mean, it's just a tough year. I don't have

325
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,840
Speaker 5: great words for you, Charlie.

326
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,480
Speaker 9: Just you know, when you look at your individual season

327
00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 9: of what you put out there, how did you feel

328
00:15:23,440 --> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 9: about that, and how do you look towards your your

329
00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:26,320
Speaker 9: status as at age.

330
00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:28,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, I'm proud of the worker I did.

331
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,840
Speaker 4: I'm proud of the proven I showed. Obviously, I wish

332
00:15:30,840 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 4: statistically I had more, but I think every one does

333
00:15:32,960 --> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: as football. But now I'm really proud of their growth.

334
00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 4: I showed it, you know, blocking I felt like I uh,

335
00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,520
Speaker 4: I feel like I was able to, you know, really

336
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,400
Speaker 4: take a step forward to having more dominant on the edge,

337
00:15:43,440 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 4: trying to open holes for Derek Lamar and the running

338
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,880
Speaker 4: backs and passing game. I think I made opportunities that.

339
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:49,360
Speaker 6: Came my way.

340
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,000
Speaker 5: Uh, proud of that obviously, you know, part of myself

341
00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:54,400
Speaker 5: look back at the places you didn't make, you know,

342
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:56,080
Speaker 5: a couple of blocks last night, a couple of stuff

343
00:15:56,080 --> 00:15:56,560
Speaker 5: throughout the year.

344
00:15:57,840 --> 00:15:59,400
Speaker 4: Really proud to special teams, and I feel like I

345
00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:01,760
Speaker 4: was sitting play a role and I love I don't know,

346
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,400
Speaker 4: I love Chris and that unit. I mean I feel like, obviously,

347
00:16:05,560 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 4: you know, we're all hurt for Tyler right now. You

348
00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 4: never want to you never want a season in like that,

349
00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 4: especially for a guy who works so hard. But as

350
00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,040
Speaker 4: a unit, I feel like they made a lot of

351
00:16:13,040 --> 00:16:16,080
Speaker 4: players throughout the year. I think of the Vikings game,

352
00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:18,280
Speaker 4: we've forced two fumbles, and think about their games really

353
00:16:18,280 --> 00:16:18,920
Speaker 4: a huge impact.

354
00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,680
Speaker 5: So I'm proud of the I'm proud. It's it's it's

355
00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 5: tough to say, but I'm proud of this team.

356
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:27,640
Speaker 4: I mean not, there's no real words to put into it.

357
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:31,440
Speaker 4: It's really hard to process because you know, we all

358
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 4: thought we were gonna win that game, and then twelve

359
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,320
Speaker 4: hours later team meeting and the season's over. So yeah,

360
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 4: I don't I hope sure I had better words, but

361
00:16:41,800 --> 00:16:43,840
Speaker 4: trying to be grateful, try to president probably.

362
00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 8: Can tell the pat you said, you know, being a

363
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:49,320
Speaker 8: team very high expectations and not being able.

364
00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 17: To get to the playoffs and kind of films the

365
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:51,800
Speaker 17: team on perform.

366
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,720
Speaker 5: How do you how do you feel about the season

367
00:16:54,880 --> 00:16:56,200
Speaker 5: or the big leader.

368
00:16:57,840 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 4: To perform Revie, we believe that we could attend and

369
00:17:01,520 --> 00:17:06,919
Speaker 4: we didn't do that. Or team has you know, back

370
00:17:06,960 --> 00:17:10,160
Speaker 4: to back the deep playoff runs and then we're gonna

371
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:12,640
Speaker 4: make the playoffs. This year is disappointing, said the least.

372
00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:13,000
Speaker 18: Uh.

373
00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 4: I think it's hard sometimes like you put you know,

374
00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 4: so much, like of your life and like you pour

375
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:24,480
Speaker 4: so much like sweat, effort, lu tears, love in this game.

376
00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:28,040
Speaker 4: And then obviously it's just a game, just bigger things

377
00:17:28,080 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 4: God has the store for us. But it doesn't make

378
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,120
Speaker 4: it hurt less. So yeah, we' end to performed. Of course,

379
00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 4: we had to performs preseason super Bowl favorites. And if

380
00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:38,920
Speaker 4: you don't make the playoffs, you know, let's just say English, Yeah,

381
00:17:39,400 --> 00:17:40,520
Speaker 4: it's hard to swallow.

382
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 5: It's hard to hard to do that. Sorry obviously says

383
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:44,800
Speaker 5: like the playoff night is still laying on you.

384
00:17:44,920 --> 00:17:48,639
Speaker 8: But how will you know what your process look like

385
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,760
Speaker 8: in terms of you know, free agency, you're coming back here.

386
00:17:51,640 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 5: And all of that stuff, how would you how would

387
00:17:53,200 --> 00:17:54,200
Speaker 5: you kind of handle that?

388
00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:56,960
Speaker 4: So I actually, you know, I've never gone through it,

389
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,200
Speaker 4: so I'm much. I know it starts in a couple

390
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:04,200
Speaker 4: of months, but I'll just take this week to compress, sleep,

391
00:18:04,440 --> 00:18:07,160
Speaker 4: get back with Maddie, get married in April, so that'll

392
00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 4: be exciting. I'll look forward to and start that life

393
00:18:10,359 --> 00:18:16,119
Speaker 4: with Matt's try to you know, no one wants to

394
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 4: hear it, but like there is like the sun's gonna rise,

395
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,280
Speaker 4: Like try to go sput time with your loved ones

396
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,760
Speaker 4: and be grateful. But personally, you know, I'll take some

397
00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 4: time off, get healthy, and then just get back to training.

398
00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:27,680
Speaker 4: Unemployed now, so I gotta go get a job.

399
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,440
Speaker 12: Martha already resigning.

400
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,919
Speaker 9: I mean you feel like there's a possibility that they

401
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 9: could also still bring you back.

402
00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course. So I mean I'd love to play here.

403
00:18:36,520 --> 00:18:38,320
Speaker 5: It just depends what the mold situation is.

404
00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,600
Speaker 4: You know, I love you back as a raven, but

405
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:42,520
Speaker 4: at the end of the day, I gotta do his

406
00:18:42,600 --> 00:18:45,760
Speaker 4: best for my family and myself. So we'll see what

407
00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 4: they say, see what happens I'm excited for it. Try

408
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 4: to you know, I feel like I've gotten better when

409
00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 4: I've grown in the last four years. It's like controlling

410
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 4: the things I could control, and I have no control

411
00:18:55,880 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 4: over that, especially right now. So just like even today,

412
00:19:00,400 --> 00:19:01,959
Speaker 4: there's a really good chance I'll never see off these

413
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,240
Speaker 4: guys again, so whether I'm this team or not, so

414
00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 4: try to just spend time with them and.

415
00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:09,840
Speaker 5: Try to be present. As much as it sounds, I

416
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:12,960
Speaker 5: don't know I have a great answer, but ull you know,

417
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:14,880
Speaker 5: obviously you came in here.

418
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 11: Has a guy got a lot of masses in the

419
00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 11: slide through college in the world.

420
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 5: Sorry, you know you Laitue Baltimore has a really.

421
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:24,200
Speaker 11: Good in line tight end. I think it's a strange

422
00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:27,080
Speaker 11: to consider it after that kind of change for you,

423
00:19:27,640 --> 00:19:30,040
Speaker 11: the next evolution for you in your career might be

424
00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:31,600
Speaker 11: somewhere else by Baltimore.

425
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:34,600
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, I mean obviously, like I've still believe in

426
00:19:34,680 --> 00:19:37,320
Speaker 4: myself in the pass game, and obviously I want more targets,

427
00:19:37,359 --> 00:19:38,280
Speaker 4: but that's not unique.

428
00:19:38,320 --> 00:19:40,480
Speaker 5: Every receiver and tight end wants more targets. That's the

429
00:19:40,520 --> 00:19:44,240
Speaker 5: same thing. But yeah, I'm proud of the work I've

430
00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:44,520
Speaker 5: put in.

431
00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:47,960
Speaker 4: I'm proud of how much I've gone in the change

432
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,000
Speaker 4: in my body and becoming a good blocker.

433
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 5: You know, it's difficult. These dns are really good. They're

434
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:54,720
Speaker 5: really good in this league. So like it's a big

435
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 5: growing you.

436
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 4: See a lot of the up tight ends. It's not

437
00:19:57,040 --> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 4: that I'm much easier to have success as a rookie

438
00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:03,880
Speaker 4: at catching involving this blocking, you know, it's uh, it's

439
00:20:04,359 --> 00:20:06,639
Speaker 4: these tms this league are different, especially in this division.

440
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:09,600
Speaker 5: So I'm definitely proud of that. I just got to

441
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:10,120
Speaker 5: keep growing.

442
00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:13,440
Speaker 4: You know, you're thin getting better, you're getting worse.

443
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:14,119
Speaker 5: You'd never seen the.

444
00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 1: Same sound actually heard from rookie outside linebacker Mike Crane.

445
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 5: Really, yeah, I can play the I want to play.

446
00:20:25,200 --> 00:20:28,439
Speaker 19: I'll probably just say our first game honestly against the Bills,

447
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:30,800
Speaker 19: you know, running out, I think it was a night game,

448
00:20:30,840 --> 00:20:34,080
Speaker 19: eight o'clock game, and just taking a step back and

449
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 19: realizing that, like you're actually here. It was such a

450
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:41,240
Speaker 19: real moment, you know, and that that's a moment that

451
00:20:41,560 --> 00:20:46,560
Speaker 19: I'll never forget. And you know, it was a great

452
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 19: night of course, just just from just like my personal

453
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:53,880
Speaker 19: you know view on it, just because like I got

454
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 19: the experience. This is my first NFL game and I'm

455
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,560
Speaker 19: playing a part in this defense and so so yeah,

456
00:21:02,200 --> 00:21:05,359
Speaker 19: and then I think just later on in the season, you.

457
00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,560
Speaker 5: Know, just just it's kind of it's kind of complicated.

458
00:21:09,119 --> 00:21:13,359
Speaker 19: But like I feel like being able to stay relatively

459
00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 19: healthy throughout the season is something that I look back

460
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 19: on and it's very grateful for because you know, football

461
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:22,760
Speaker 19: is a very physical sport and just looking back, I

462
00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 19: see that, you know, like I said, I'm relatively healthy. Now,

463
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,680
Speaker 19: you know, like I'm able to come. I'm able to

464
00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 19: play another game, right if.

465
00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:35,160
Speaker 5: You're really if I really could. But but yeah, that's

466
00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 5: probably it.

467
00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,359
Speaker 4: Like what wark about what it takes to play in

468
00:21:37,400 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 4: the NFL, what.

469
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:40,320
Speaker 5: It takes to play in in an NFL.

470
00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:41,600
Speaker 6: What I learned.

471
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:49,840
Speaker 19: Is, you know, I think the first thing is, you know,

472
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:54,800
Speaker 19: just realizing that it's not just the skill, not just

473
00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:56,879
Speaker 19: the size, not just the speed, but.

474
00:21:56,880 --> 00:21:59,520
Speaker 5: It's also the fundamental of the football of football.

475
00:21:59,760 --> 00:22:02,680
Speaker 19: It's also you know, the dedication and like the little

476
00:22:02,760 --> 00:22:05,840
Speaker 19: things that you would never think matters, matters, you know

477
00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:06,320
Speaker 19: what I'm saying.

478
00:22:06,359 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 5: So so I think I think that that that probably

479
00:22:11,760 --> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 5: sums up the question.

480
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:17,879
Speaker 15: Yeah, study, sharing the same side of all the same

481
00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 15: Ropie class. Do you think you guys share the same

482
00:22:20,160 --> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 15: sense of hugger kind of go in the off season?

483
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, offseason.

484
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:28,879
Speaker 19: Yeah, two guys that got dropted relatively high. So you know,

485
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:33,639
Speaker 19: there's big shoes to feel. And I think what me

486
00:22:33,720 --> 00:22:37,920
Speaker 19: and him both are good at is is not letting

487
00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,399
Speaker 19: the moment get too big for us, you know. And

488
00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,600
Speaker 19: even though there was things that we had to overcome,

489
00:22:44,760 --> 00:22:47,800
Speaker 19: you know, learning the playbook and getting comfortable in the

490
00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 19: scheme and things like that, I think we didn't let

491
00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:52,919
Speaker 19: that moment get too big for us, and we were

492
00:22:52,960 --> 00:22:56,320
Speaker 19: able to conquer all the adversity that we had faced.

493
00:22:57,720 --> 00:22:59,840
Speaker 1: Next we heard from center Tyler Linderbaum.

494
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:05,080
Speaker 9: Tyler, how do you kind of play into in words

495
00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 9: that what the stay is?

496
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:07,280
Speaker 4: A disappointment of all?

497
00:23:08,359 --> 00:23:14,800
Speaker 17: Yeah, obviously disappointing about last night, but you know, thankful

498
00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,359
Speaker 17: for this season for the guys.

499
00:23:17,160 --> 00:23:20,399
Speaker 6: You know, I've been through a lot, obviously not the

500
00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:21,280
Speaker 6: season that we wanted.

501
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 17: Another one thing about the team, you know, we never quit,

502
00:23:25,920 --> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 17: always keep fighting until the very end, and that's why

503
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:28,920
Speaker 17: you appreciate it.

504
00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,440
Speaker 6: What was the enough overriding.

505
00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,240
Speaker 5: Message I may have the team?

506
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 17: Uh No, just probably guys for the season, you know,

507
00:23:37,280 --> 00:23:39,560
Speaker 17: kind of just want to hit on just not the

508
00:23:39,640 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 17: season that we wanted, but we never waivered, Tyler, we could.

509
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 5: Kind of take a step back.

510
00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:46,879
Speaker 12: What was your depression or evaluation of the.

511
00:23:46,880 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 5: Offensive this year?

512
00:23:48,880 --> 00:23:54,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, No, definitely saw some growth. Yeah, just one of

513
00:23:54,520 --> 00:23:55,960
Speaker 6: the things that's hard about our position.

514
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:59,439
Speaker 17: Try to play as consistent as possible the first seventeen games.

515
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 5: You know, just.

516
00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,360
Speaker 17: Proud how he came to work every single day. Try

517
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,600
Speaker 17: to get better and that's all you can ask for, Taler, What.

518
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 20: Do you think the thought will your thoughts will start

519
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:13,719
Speaker 20: to transition to your future.

520
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 6: Yeah, take some time off and don't worry about that

521
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:21,640
Speaker 6: at a later time.

522
00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:26,200
Speaker 21: Tyler is your either pitpoint on why how do you

523
00:24:26,280 --> 00:24:29,120
Speaker 21: guys have had some of these issues in big games

524
00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:32,520
Speaker 21: where you just kind of kid you're not you're dumping

525
00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:34,440
Speaker 21: at your best when your best is required.

526
00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:40,320
Speaker 17: Yeah, that's the unique and hard thing about football is

527
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,600
Speaker 17: you know, you gotta be at your at your best.

528
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 17: You gotta be at your best, and you know, obviously

529
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,400
Speaker 17: the past few years we haven't been able to kind

530
00:24:50,400 --> 00:24:51,160
Speaker 17: of get over that hump.

531
00:24:51,359 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 6: But no, think with guys in this locker room.

532
00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 17: Coaching staff, you know, We're doing everything possible to you know,

533
00:25:02,640 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 17: try to get over that.

534
00:25:03,359 --> 00:25:06,359
Speaker 5: Help you do you want to be back here?

535
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:08,240
Speaker 6: Yeah? Absolutely, Tyler.

536
00:25:08,600 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 8: I mean, I know you're just saying you're going to

537
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 8: consider future in the later time and all that being said,

538
00:25:13,280 --> 00:25:15,560
Speaker 8: is it a different feeling than other locker room being

539
00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:17,159
Speaker 8: that past knowing you know.

540
00:25:17,200 --> 00:25:19,200
Speaker 5: The future is kind of a little on the air

541
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:20,000
Speaker 5: still your.

542
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,000
Speaker 17: Care I think that's part of our business. You know,

543
00:25:23,119 --> 00:25:25,560
Speaker 17: each and every year, each and every week, everything is

544
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:30,760
Speaker 17: up in the air. But we got the best job

545
00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:35,080
Speaker 17: in the world playing professional football, and you know, got

546
00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 17: to be grateful for that for sure.

547
00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,480
Speaker 7: For a lot of guys, they want to see you

548
00:25:39,560 --> 00:25:41,520
Speaker 7: know you you don't get to hit reach free agency

549
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:45,520
Speaker 7: very oftensive times. Some guys wanted test free agency. Are

550
00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:47,240
Speaker 7: you one of the guys that wanted test the agency

551
00:25:47,359 --> 00:25:49,080
Speaker 7: or are you open to maybe getting a deal done

552
00:25:49,520 --> 00:25:50,679
Speaker 7: before free agency starts?

553
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:56,800
Speaker 6: Yeah? Not really, you know, worried about that right now.

554
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:01,000
Speaker 6: But talk my agent and see what's best fit. What

555
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:01,399
Speaker 6: kind of.

556
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:02,399
Speaker 5: Processes like.

557
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:05,240
Speaker 4: Is that for you, like the.

558
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 6: You can have the lean not like family.

559
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:10,720
Speaker 5: Talk to agent, you know, like how did like how

560
00:26:10,720 --> 00:26:13,280
Speaker 5: would you actually approach the processes? Yeah?

561
00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:16,320
Speaker 17: I think, you know, biggest thing, obviously you know what's

562
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,760
Speaker 17: best for me in the family, and then you know,

563
00:26:20,840 --> 00:26:26,560
Speaker 17: obviously get input from other people, and then obviously you're

564
00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:31,600
Speaker 17: you're agent. But yeah, the people closest to me, people

565
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:35,120
Speaker 17: that I care about their opinions and go from there.

566
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:38,280
Speaker 20: Tyler just sort of in a personal note, I mean,

567
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 20: you know, if you played with Lamar for so many

568
00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:45,400
Speaker 20: years now and and we're kind of seeing what people

569
00:26:45,480 --> 00:26:46,600
Speaker 20: were saying about him these.

570
00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:48,800
Speaker 8: Last few weeks, what do you think about his performance

571
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:52,520
Speaker 8: last night? Sort of demonstrated about him as a player.

572
00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 8: He is the most electrifying player there is in this game. Shoot,

573
00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 8: I cut a nose guard losing he somehow slipped out

574
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:05,120
Speaker 8: of it and through the yard, through the ball eighty

575
00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:11,400
Speaker 8: yards for a touchdown. That's the kind of ability he has.

576
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 17: So fun to play for ultra competitor, and you know,

577
00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,840
Speaker 17: anytime that ball snapped to him and it's in his hands,

578
00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:26,680
Speaker 17: you know, something electrifying.

579
00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 5: What can happen.

580
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:29,360
Speaker 12: Next?

581
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:31,920
Speaker 1: We heard from right tackle Roger rose Garden.

582
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:37,200
Speaker 4: Kind of surreal going to sleep last night, but definitely

583
00:27:37,240 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 4: waking up in the morning this morning, it kind of

584
00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:42,960
Speaker 4: definitely hurt, stung a little bit more, you know, not

585
00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:45,520
Speaker 4: giving another opportunity on a Sunday to get after it

586
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:48,920
Speaker 4: with the boys. So that's the worst part, you know,

587
00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,320
Speaker 4: not going out there. I think, like I said, I'd

588
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,639
Speaker 4: get another opportunity. That stings, But let's look back on

589
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 4: the season. But you know, no regrets for me.

590
00:27:57,119 --> 00:28:00,360
Speaker 8: Roger, it seemed like the offensive line at a lot

591
00:28:00,480 --> 00:28:04,280
Speaker 8: more boom or bust this year than last year. You know,

592
00:28:04,320 --> 00:28:05,840
Speaker 8: what do you kind of see is the key for

593
00:28:06,440 --> 00:28:09,080
Speaker 8: the group to be more consistent and you personally be

594
00:28:09,160 --> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 8: more consistent next year.

595
00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:13,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think consistency as offensive line is

596
00:28:13,200 --> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 4: one of the hardest traits, you know, to instilling yourself.

597
00:28:18,400 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 4: That starts up front with the with the boys. So

598
00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,160
Speaker 4: you know, I think from Game one to Game seventeen,

599
00:28:26,280 --> 00:28:28,840
Speaker 4: if you could be the most consistent offensive line, I

600
00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:31,879
Speaker 4: think that's going to translate to winning a lot more

601
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:35,200
Speaker 4: games and stuff. So, you know, I think it just

602
00:28:35,400 --> 00:28:39,080
Speaker 4: all starts in the off season being mentally disciplined and uh,

603
00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 4: physically disciplined and you know, you know, just keep that

604
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:42,160
Speaker 4: train rolling.

605
00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,520
Speaker 9: Tyler's depending free agents, just how much way it hurt

606
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:47,960
Speaker 9: if its offensive.

607
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,720
Speaker 4: Line were to keep that Yeah, I mean that would sting.

608
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 4: You know, I think Tyler's best in the league. Like you,

609
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,960
Speaker 4: Like I said, you know, there's kind of down and downs,

610
00:28:56,040 --> 00:28:57,680
Speaker 4: kind of out of out of control of the players,

611
00:28:57,800 --> 00:28:59,360
Speaker 4: but to.

612
00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:01,480
Speaker 5: See a guy like that walk would really hurt. I

613
00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:03,720
Speaker 5: think it's kind of the same situation as Ronnie last year.

614
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna be calling him, making sure where I

615
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:09,120
Speaker 4: could do whatever I can to keep him because this

616
00:29:09,240 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 4: offense line runs through him and he's the tip of

617
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:11,360
Speaker 4: the spirit.

618
00:29:11,480 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 5: So yeah, in terms of you personally.

619
00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,320
Speaker 8: What is Tyler gonna helped you with and developing as

620
00:29:16,320 --> 00:29:17,120
Speaker 8: an NFL player?

621
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, I think he's one of the smartest.

622
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:22,320
Speaker 4: I think the centers the smartest guy in the field.

623
00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:27,400
Speaker 4: So he's helped me, you know, read defenses, see certain

624
00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,160
Speaker 4: things that he reads and when he's up there with

625
00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 4: the ball in his hand and he's out of control

626
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:35,040
Speaker 4: of it. So, uh, you know, tis the best of

627
00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:36,680
Speaker 4: the best. He's the best in the NFL. So I

628
00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 4: just really hope you can stay here.

629
00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:39,920
Speaker 7: I think, why do you say it like the the

630
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,240
Speaker 7: offensive liney not the just says you guys wanted. Do

631
00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,000
Speaker 7: you kind of when you go into this all.

632
00:29:44,960 --> 00:29:48,000
Speaker 4: Season, do you do you expect some changes along the

633
00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:51,080
Speaker 4: offensive line. I mean, like I said, I kind of

634
00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:55,320
Speaker 4: I don't think that's any of my control. So I

635
00:29:55,440 --> 00:29:57,360
Speaker 4: know what I can do is control what I could control.

636
00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:00,880
Speaker 4: So start the officers and training office in program, hitting,

637
00:30:01,040 --> 00:30:03,680
Speaker 4: hitting the ways hard, hitting the speech training hard, and

638
00:30:04,200 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 4: you know, I think the cards will fall from there.

639
00:30:06,040 --> 00:30:09,760
Speaker 4: But a lot there's a lot to take out away

640
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,680
Speaker 4: from the season, A lot of good, a lot of bad.

641
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:13,480
Speaker 5: But you know, I cherished the ones that were good,

642
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 5: and I got no regrets.

643
00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,080
Speaker 8: So I think it's fair to say that the offensive

644
00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,720
Speaker 8: line was perhaps the most scrutinized position group in this

645
00:30:19,840 --> 00:30:20,360
Speaker 8: locker room.

646
00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 6: I mean, does that change anything about how you operate?

647
00:30:23,920 --> 00:30:26,640
Speaker 8: I mean you're sort of off social more or how

648
00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:27,120
Speaker 8: did it?

649
00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,000
Speaker 5: How? What was it like kind of going through that?

650
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:33,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you know, as you grew up playing

651
00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,560
Speaker 4: in offense line as a kid, you know you're never

652
00:30:35,600 --> 00:30:37,560
Speaker 4: gonna get praised enough for the work you do, and

653
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,040
Speaker 4: then you're gonna get scrutinized for the.

654
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 5: Stuff you mess up.

655
00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 4: So I think that's part of playing the position, and

656
00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,480
Speaker 4: especially you know kind of up and down yere we

657
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,320
Speaker 4: had this year. A lot of that fire is gonna

658
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:49,840
Speaker 4: fall on us, and it's our job to take on

659
00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 4: the responsibility to make sure that we had to play better.

660
00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 4: So but I think overall, I think me and the boys,

661
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:00,360
Speaker 4: we have a lot to take away from the season,

662
00:31:00,560 --> 00:31:02,920
Speaker 4: a lot of good. So just gotta keep building on

663
00:31:03,080 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 4: that in in.

664
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 5: Your in your first coup season. Since here they ended

665
00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:08,520
Speaker 5: pretty dramatics.

666
00:31:08,600 --> 00:31:10,320
Speaker 7: We see what a lot of people are focusing on

667
00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:13,200
Speaker 7: one play in Buffalo one play, you know this one?

668
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:15,680
Speaker 7: Do you kind of as a team, do you kind

669
00:31:15,720 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 7: of think what's it gonna take to.

670
00:31:17,320 --> 00:31:18,680
Speaker 5: Get kind of over that healthy?

671
00:31:19,640 --> 00:31:19,840
Speaker 12: Yeah?

672
00:31:19,920 --> 00:31:23,360
Speaker 5: I just think it's you know, finishing games.

673
00:31:23,480 --> 00:31:25,320
Speaker 4: You know, well if we have a ten point lead,

674
00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:28,280
Speaker 4: seven point lead, twenty point lead, you know, we gotta

675
00:31:28,320 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 4: finish every quarter when you put points on the board.

676
00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 4: And uh, I think as an offense, I think that's

677
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,200
Speaker 4: what we can control and you know, doing doing the

678
00:31:37,240 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 4: best of our ability to do that, you know.

679
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,800
Speaker 5: So we have the guys to do it. We have

680
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 5: the best, We have the best of the best players

681
00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,560
Speaker 5: around it. So yeah, I'm excited. And what's it like

682
00:31:45,680 --> 00:31:47,080
Speaker 5: playing with the more in that fourth quarter?

683
00:31:47,400 --> 00:31:49,000
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I mean he's the best of the best.

684
00:31:49,040 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 4: I mean, right, before we went out and he's like,

685
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,800
Speaker 4: let's be legendary, and that's exactly what he did. You know,

686
00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 4: he's he's the best in the NFL. So, like I said,

687
00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:58,600
Speaker 4: we got the players to do it, and I'm excited

688
00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,280
Speaker 4: next year We're gonna hit the off season for ram

689
00:32:00,360 --> 00:32:02,720
Speaker 4: Hard and next year I'm excited.

690
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:09,360
Speaker 1: Next up, we heard from quarterback Cooper Rush. Yeah.

691
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,280
Speaker 5: I mean he's incredible and you see it. You see

692

Speaker 5: it every week every Sunday.

693
00:32:12,520 --> 00:32:15,040
Speaker 18: What he does out there, always sees the game, how

694
00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,719
Speaker 18: he feels space, obviously, all his athletic attributes.

695
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 12: It was really cool to be around.

696
00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,320
Speaker 18: You know, it's it's special to uh be around guys,

697
00:32:23,400 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 18: especially some of the greats about doing the kuber with

698
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,040
Speaker 18: one of the great qbs was really cool.

699
00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,120
Speaker 12: Some of that unbelieving black letters and you've be seen

700
00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:31,800

701
00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:33,800
Speaker 12: about him from being up close?

702
00:32:33,840 --> 00:32:35,800

Speaker 18: neat Cooper.

710
00:32:53,040 --> 00:32:55,840
Speaker 15: Retrospect When you you did have that time in there,

711
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,400
Speaker 15: is there anything you wish that kind of went differently out.

712
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 18: In general with the offense or when you Uh, I mean,

713
00:33:02,200 --> 00:33:04,240
Speaker 18: obviously you wish a better result, but sometimes it's not

714
00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:06,960
Speaker 18: about the results. Kind of look at the tapes that

715
00:33:07,040 --> 00:33:10,040
Speaker 18: you played and uh, you know you're happy he plays

716
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 18: a backup.

717
00:33:10,400 --> 00:33:11,400
Speaker 5: You good chances to go play.

718
00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 3: You know, they don't come every year, so you have

719
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:14,840
Speaker 3: two more games in Uh.

720
00:33:15,200 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 18: It's pretty special and uh take you take a lot

721
00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:18,200
Speaker 18: from 'em.

722
00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:19,880
Speaker 4: Oh wow, which is about how that you just gonna

723
00:33:19,920 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 4: arrived and at.

724
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:25,640
Speaker 5: First work that was good, big learning process.

725
00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:27,760
Speaker 3: Obviously new offense, new teammates and things like that.

726
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:30,520
Speaker 18: But uh, I give credit to the locker room how

727
00:33:30,560 --> 00:33:35,040
Speaker 18: it's built. It's pretty seamless. Transition. Uh oh, you know,

728
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 18: got to know a lot of guys really well thought

729
00:33:36,800 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 18: a vibe with the team and the culture here.

730
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:39,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, it set up well.

731
00:33:41,640 --> 00:33:45,080
Speaker 5: Cooper. Obviously you were in Dallas for a lot of decks.

732
00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:47,360
Speaker 3: Transition into the kind of quarterback that he is today.

733
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:49,520
Speaker 3: He was like very much a tool style guy.

734
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:51,160
Speaker 5: Now you can you know, rig up with the best

735
00:33:51,200 --> 00:33:51,480
Speaker 5: of them.

736
00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,560
Speaker 11: What did you see from uh like that you know

737
00:33:54,640 --> 00:33:56,120
Speaker 11: has a little arm maybe kind of headed into a

738
00:33:56,200 --> 00:33:57,400
Speaker 11: different part of his career.

739
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:00,520
Speaker 18: Sure, yeah, he's just uh I think over the years

740
00:34:00,560 --> 00:34:04,600
Speaker 18: that you know, really took you know, he took a

741
00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:07,160
Speaker 18: kind of ownership in the offense in terms of how

742
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:09,560
Speaker 18: he wanted to look and how he wanted to.

743
00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:09,920
Speaker 6: Play in it.

744
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:13,040
Speaker 18: And uh, you know Laar's on that trajectory and he's

745
00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:15,400
Speaker 18: still can run around a lot better than that.

746
00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 5: The guy obviously saw it last night.

747
00:34:19,400 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 18: So you know, as as keep growing as a QB

748
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,960
Speaker 18: in this league, you see as guys get well in

749
00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:26,520
Speaker 18: their thirties and playing the basketball, the quarterback position is

750
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:28,719
Speaker 18: kind of different than other positions you got you know,

751
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,440
Speaker 18: Stafford and these guys out here still doing it.

752
00:34:32,239 --> 00:34:34,120
Speaker 5: So I mean this guy's a limit obviously.

753
00:34:35,360 --> 00:34:39,640
Speaker 1: Next we heard from safety Alohi Gilman. Yeah, I gets

754
00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:41,719
Speaker 1: kind of put into the words with what today is at.

755
00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:42,560
Speaker 12: The disappointment over the way.

756
00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:47,359
Speaker 14: Uh yeah, I mean disappointing for sure, Like you said, uh,

757
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:55,960
Speaker 14: frustrating not the reason you want, but uh, that's the

758
00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:59,200
Speaker 14: journey of being in the NFL and uh you you

759
00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:01,600
Speaker 14: know you you can take the always gotta take the

760
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:04,239
Speaker 14: good from from the bad, and you just keep it

761
00:35:04,320 --> 00:35:06,920
Speaker 14: pushing and uh, you know you.

762
00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:07,840
Speaker 5: I think for me, I.

763
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,279
Speaker 12: Always just l r look back and reflect and just

764
00:35:11,520 --> 00:35:11,960
Speaker 12: just feel with.

765
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 14: Gratitude, you know, for being in this opportunity to get

766
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,760
Speaker 14: in the position I was able to do, uh, improving

767
00:35:16,840 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 14: as a player, gaining new brothers, relationships, and so that

768
00:35:20,920 --> 00:35:24,960
Speaker 14: that's that's definitely the reflection for me along those.

769
00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,040
Speaker 1: Lines, like what's the takeaway for you?

770
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:27,480
Speaker 5: And you come here in the middle of the.

771
00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 8: Season and you jump right in, but what do you

772
00:35:30,120 --> 00:35:30,680
Speaker 8: take away from the.

773
00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:32,359
Speaker 5: Time that you spend here? Yeah?

774
00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,120
Speaker 14: Man, you know, I feel like this season has been

775
00:35:35,360 --> 00:35:38,600
Speaker 14: crucial for me, just uh being able to find that

776
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,880
Speaker 14: freedom while playing this game. This game comes with a

777
00:35:41,920 --> 00:35:45,040
Speaker 14: lot of anxiety, Uh, just a lot of stuff that

778
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:47,040
Speaker 14: is thrown on you and throwing on your plate.

779
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,200
Speaker 12: But being able to come to a new place and

780
00:35:50,840 --> 00:35:51,920
Speaker 12: being able to come out here and.

781
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:55,000
Speaker 14: Just perform and play and play free and the coaches

782
00:35:55,040 --> 00:35:57,839
Speaker 14: giving me that confidence to do that. Uh, that's that's

783
00:35:57,920 --> 00:36:00,160
Speaker 14: me meant the world to me, and uh, it's made

784
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 14: my job fun and it's been a blessing and I

785
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,279
Speaker 14: don't take it for granted cause playing a kid's game,

786
00:36:06,480 --> 00:36:09,560
Speaker 14: So you know, I'm I'm grateful for that opportunity for sure.

787
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:12,200
Speaker 18: How proud are you of yourself for going through this

788
00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 18: transition and season for the first time and then still

789
00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:16,480
Speaker 18: playing at a really high level with the new teams.

790
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 12: Yeah, I mean.

791
00:36:19,040 --> 00:36:22,320
Speaker 14: Most you know, athletes were uh pretty hypercritical of ourselves.

792
00:36:22,360 --> 00:36:23,840
Speaker 12: You know, that's just the nature of it.

793
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,439
Speaker 14: Yeah, I definitely am gonna reflect on it and pat

794
00:36:27,520 --> 00:36:29,719
Speaker 14: myself on the back, you know, show myself some love,

795
00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:32,319
Speaker 14: cause you know, I went through a uh.

796
00:36:32,560 --> 00:36:35,320
Speaker 12: A journey of a season cross country.

797
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,200
Speaker 14: And being able to make an impact, be a leader, communicate,

798
00:36:42,400 --> 00:36:45,160
Speaker 14: just building chemistry with guys and that that's meant the

799
00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:49,080
Speaker 14: world to me. And just the opportunity to grow as

800
00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:52,200
Speaker 14: a person, as an individual first and as.

801
00:36:52,040 --> 00:36:54,799
Speaker 12: A football player. And that's what it's this journey's about.

802
00:36:54,800 --> 00:36:57,919
Speaker 14: It's about growth, and I've gotten the opportunity this week

803
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:00,239
Speaker 14: or this year, and it's just great for that.

804
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 5: I saw all those things you hope to be at,

805
00:37:03,960 --> 00:37:05,440
Speaker 5: what hope to be beyond this year?

806
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:07,080
Speaker 14: Oh yeah, it would be a it would be a

807
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:10,440
Speaker 14: privilege to be back here, you know, after everything we

808
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:13,000
Speaker 14: went through, Uh, the relationships.

809
00:37:13,080 --> 00:37:16,440
Speaker 12: I love everything about this place. Uh, just the culture,

810
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:17,720
Speaker 12: the identity, the coaches.

811
00:37:20,280 --> 00:37:22,399
Speaker 14: You know, it's definitely something that I feel like, al

812
00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,799
Speaker 14: we al I align myself with as a player, as

813
00:37:25,800 --> 00:37:29,560
Speaker 14: a person and you know, if if that happens, and

814
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,160
Speaker 14: it would be a privilege. And if not, you know,

815
00:37:32,560 --> 00:37:34,000
Speaker 14: that's what life happens.

816
00:37:34,080 --> 00:37:36,600
Speaker 1: But I definitely would love to come back next We

817
00:37:36,719 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 1: heard from outside linebacker Draymond Jones.

818
00:37:40,560 --> 00:37:44,719
Speaker 10: Overwhelming disappointment and works so hard, you prepare so much

819
00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:47,080
Speaker 10: and then the outcome doesn't turn out to be what

820
00:37:47,160 --> 00:37:47,600
Speaker 10: you wanted to be.

821
00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:49,760
Speaker 5: Just just sucks.

822
00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:53,000
Speaker 1: Bron What do you take away from the time that

823
00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:55,440
Speaker 1: you spend here After coming here in the middle of

824
00:37:55,440 --> 00:37:57,840
Speaker 1: the season and you know, to Calton, this place.

825
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:02,120
Speaker 10: Home for the blast us, I couldn't do nothing but

826
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 10: just show my appreciation and respect to this program, and

827
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:06,560
Speaker 10: it brought me in. It made me feel like I've

828
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:09,520
Speaker 10: been here since July and then Ota some and you know,

829
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 10: they were drilling onto me and make sure I just

830
00:38:11,600 --> 00:38:12,799
Speaker 10: set the game playing from day one.

831
00:38:12,960 --> 00:38:15,000
Speaker 3: They overall, they just take care of me and I

832
00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:16,759
Speaker 3: can do nothing but appreciate that.

833
00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:18,640
Speaker 12: Taking on this process.

834
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: You know they're certainly going into pre agency process, but

835
00:38:21,200 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: how do you plan to take on that process.

836
00:38:23,040 --> 00:38:25,600
Speaker 3: Like I had before with open arms? You know, clear mind,

837
00:38:25,640 --> 00:38:27,600
Speaker 3: clear head. I'm not gonna think too much and deepinitely

838
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 3: about it until the time, which is probably March, and

839
00:38:31,040 --> 00:38:32,200
Speaker 3: we'll see what happens from there.

840
00:38:32,880 --> 00:38:35,400
Speaker 10: I mean, I love being a Raven, and you know

841
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,160
Speaker 10: it it'd be greater, I continued, but you know, it

842
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,600
Speaker 10: depends on what they see, Drey.

843
00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:45,320
Speaker 15: I just been you've been a free agency before. I

844
00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:48,480
Speaker 15: think seventh seven a career high. Are you proud of

845
00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:50,200
Speaker 15: the tip that you put on film well during your

846
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:50,600
Speaker 15: time here?

847
00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:52,759
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm proud of my tape bet on the film.

848
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 10: I think I missed a lot of sacks, and I

849
00:38:55,600 --> 00:39:00,120
Speaker 10: think that is probably my biggest disappointment for myself. I

850
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 10: don't know how many quarterback hits I had a lot,

851
00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 10: it felt like, but I wish those hits were attacks.

852
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:08,400
Speaker 3: But you know, it just got to build upon this

853
00:39:08,600 --> 00:39:10,680
Speaker 3: this this year, and and I know what I need

854
00:39:10,760 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 3: to do. I've already done.

855
00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:16,480
Speaker 10: I've already got ready to dissect myself and how I

856
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 10: can be better for next year. Probably take a couple

857
00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:21,080
Speaker 10: weeks off and get the working out and get prepared

858
00:39:21,120 --> 00:39:22,719
Speaker 10: for the season coming up next year.

859
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 1: Next time we heard from outside linebacker Tavius Robinson.

860
00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:30,600
Speaker 16: The next step here, Yeah, I think just you know,

861
00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:33,120
Speaker 16: being here in the off season and again learning from Matt,

862
00:39:33,200 --> 00:39:36,160
Speaker 16: learning from the Chuck, you know, just getting better. And

863
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,960
Speaker 16: I think every year and learning from the coaches and

864
00:39:39,080 --> 00:39:41,600
Speaker 16: learning you know from the vets has allowed me to

865
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 16: just grow and getting better every year. So I look

866
00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,680
Speaker 16: forward to taking another step next year for sure.

867
00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:47,520
Speaker 3: As a whole.

868
00:39:47,640 --> 00:39:50,720
Speaker 20: I guess that was a section where you guys struggled

869
00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:52,920
Speaker 20: to find consistency and what do you feel like for

870
00:39:53,040 --> 00:39:54,360
Speaker 20: the group would be the next.

871
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,440
Speaker 16: I think just again working in the off season, you know,

872
00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,600
Speaker 16: us all being here together, you know from from the

873
00:40:00,640 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 16: start is going to be huge, you know, I know,

874
00:40:03,320 --> 00:40:04,640
Speaker 16: we just got to try back on a deal. We

875
00:40:04,719 --> 00:40:06,759
Speaker 16: got young Mike here who had a great season, and

876
00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 16: so you know, all of us just kind of grinding

877
00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:10,600
Speaker 16: toyet this offseason, you know, and coming.

878
00:40:10,400 --> 00:40:12,400
Speaker 5: In with a plan and just you know, looking to

879
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:13,279
Speaker 5: dominate the next year.

880
00:40:13,400 --> 00:40:15,680
Speaker 22: So to that point, what are the challenges when that

881
00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:19,439
Speaker 22: group is so disjoining it with injuries and Draymond comes

882
00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:22,200
Speaker 22: in mid season and just shoving around injury to yourself,

883
00:40:22,239 --> 00:40:24,080
Speaker 22: like how, how what are the challenges when it is

884
00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:24,839
Speaker 22: a disjointing group.

885
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:28,560
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it's just a matter of you know,

886
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 16: guys just had to step up and that's just kind

887
00:40:29,960 --> 00:40:31,280
Speaker 16: of how it was all year, all around.

888
00:40:31,360 --> 00:40:34,840
Speaker 5: So and that's what we did. But again, it's just

889
00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:36,239
Speaker 5: looking forward to the off season and.

890
00:40:36,480 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 6: Getting after it.

891
00:40:37,920 --> 00:40:38,640
Speaker 1: Have some nice moments.

892
00:40:38,680 --> 00:40:39,839
Speaker 4: You'll any injury this year.

893
00:40:40,239 --> 00:40:41,560
Speaker 1: What's your takeaway through this season?

894
00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:43,800
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it was a season of adversity and

895
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,040
Speaker 16: I think, you know, adversity is a bad thing to wait.

896
00:40:47,120 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 16: So there's lots of lessons and you know, with my situation,

897
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:53,440
Speaker 16: the injury just reminded me to again never take a

898
00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:56,319
Speaker 16: snap for granted, and for the rest of my career,

899
00:40:56,320 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 16: I can promise you that there won't be a snap

900
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:58,440
Speaker 16: sack for granted.

901
00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,880
Speaker 1: So what do you what your process and approaches offseason?

902
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:02,919
Speaker 6: Yeah?

903
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,000
Speaker 16: For me, it's you know, honestly, only like a week

904
00:41:05,080 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 16: or two off and then I'm black at it. So

905
00:41:08,400 --> 00:41:11,280
Speaker 16: it's just about getting better and it starts now because

906
00:41:11,320 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 16: you know, the work we do in the winter and

907
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,560
Speaker 16: all of that is what will show up and come

908
00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:15,040
Speaker 16: next year.
