1
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,360
Speaker 1: Welcome to the game plan. I'm Logan Pulsing here with

2
00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:20,360
Speaker 1: a man that needs no introduction, that's Coach Day and

3
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: Quinn and we were in the Big Bear AI Command

4
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: Center studio and coach Merry Christmas, Man.

5
00:00:24,640 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 2: Merry Christmas Man. It's a what a cool thing to

6
00:00:27,360 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 2: be playing on Christmas. I've done a few times, but

7
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,239
Speaker 2: to be a standalone game that's a really big deal. Man,

8
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 2: to bring Christmas in all over the world. Like, that's

9
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,240
Speaker 2: awesome it have you sa you've done it before?

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 1: And like, how is it getting all the guys ready

11
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,160
Speaker 1: to go on Christmas Day and the whole thing.

12
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think like there's a cool element to that

13
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:47,720
Speaker 2: that knowing that you know people are watching and uh,

14
00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 2: you know for me growing up those days and the holidays,

15
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,120
Speaker 2: whether it's Christmas or Thanksgiving and you know, seeing a

16
00:00:53,200 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 2: game and everybody's together and you're watching, So I know

17
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,600
Speaker 2: that's going on. You know a lot of families and

18
00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: a lot of homes, and so to get to be

19
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 2: the ones they are watching, I guess not lost on them.

20
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: And I think it's awesome that we're playing a team

21
00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: that we know really well. Yeah, big time rival Dallas Cowboys,

22
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,600
Speaker 1: you know, the second matchup is always a little bit different,

23
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:12,880
Speaker 1: and it's around Christmas, Like how you feel about the

24
00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 1: ball game?

25
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:16,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, just going in division games are always a blast, man.

26
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,680
Speaker 2: So we had four going into this, you know, right

27
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:21,240
Speaker 2: in a row, Giants, Philly, Dallas and back to Philly,

28
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,360
Speaker 2: and so I love the energy. You know that the

29
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 2: guys are brought in the first two parts of those

30
00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:28,200
Speaker 2: matchups one and one as we're sitting in that four

31
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:32,480
Speaker 2: game tournament, but playing against Dallas, familiar opponent, how we

32
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 2: want to get down the important parts of the game.

33
00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 2: And then having it here at home obviously that's a

34
00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:37,600
Speaker 2: big deal.

35
00:01:37,959 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 1: And again like they kind of played you guys a

36
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,920
Speaker 1: little bit differently than they had played before. Like how

37
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: much do you weigh that first game versus like what

38
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,200
Speaker 1: they've been the last couple of weeks, Like balance that out.

39
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:50,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, you have to look strengths and weaknesses. Where are

40
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: they and you know this just from playing there's a

41
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 2: couple of things that are going to be different. Yeh know,

42
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 2: both teams have some new wrinkles that maybe they didn't

43
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 2: show the first game or did something different off of

44
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 2: similar look. So it's part of the strategy that goes on.

45
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,320
Speaker 2: I think it gets elevated in the division games.

46
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: Absolutely, And a guy that's been elevating the past couple

47
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:10,760
Speaker 1: weeks is Bobby Wagner. Man like slowly ticking up that

48
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:14,640
Speaker 1: tackle chart almost at two thousand, which is unbelievable. Yeah,

49
00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 1: how has it been? What you I mean, you knew

50
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:17,920
Speaker 1: him when he was this big, yes, and now how

51
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:19,840
Speaker 1: does it see him now when he's on the verge

52
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,880
Speaker 1: of that great milestone.

53
00:02:21,040 --> 00:02:25,360
Speaker 2: It's really cool. And the reason why, man, is this

54
00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:27,920
Speaker 2: a person that puts in work. And I've always got

55
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 2: a special spot for a competitor like that that is

56
00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:34,840
Speaker 2: just never backing off logan and he just always sets

57
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:38,520
Speaker 2: a high standard, always going after it. He's as tough

58
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:41,200
Speaker 2: as they come, and so to be in that kind

59
00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 2: of rare air of tackling, I think it's one of

60
00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 2: the coolest things. And I'm certain he'll get it.

61
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:48,959
Speaker 1: I mean, he's he might get it this year, which

62
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: would be fantastic. Right, he's like fifteen away, so he's

63
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:52,959
Speaker 1: been he's been playing us, and that's the only I

64
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: want to ask you. It seems like of last two

65
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: weeks he's just played better and more confident, and you know,

66
00:02:58,480 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 1: in games that like when the guy is leading that

67
00:03:01,680 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: way with that level of energy, it seems it gives

68
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:06,000
Speaker 1: me chills just thinking about it, quite frankly to.

69
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: See some of the big tackles he made and the

70
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 2: excitement and the enthusiasm that he comes up with. Here's

71
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,800
Speaker 2: a big hit against the giants under down big stack

72
00:03:12,840 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 2: in this one. Just that kind of emotion that he

73
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:18,760
Speaker 2: shows from the stoic person like it lifts everybody up.

74
00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 2: And like I said, his square tackling ability, especially in

75
00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: between you know, in the tackle box man, it's rare,

76
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 2: and uh yeah, we're all fortunate to get a chance

77
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 2: to coach him and learn from them. And so let's

78
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: go battle.

79
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, so obviously old guy Bobby Wagner and then some

80
00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 1: young guys playing really well. Mikey Sandersol comes to mind,

81
00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,240
Speaker 1: has this dynamic play to start the game off. How

82
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: cool is it that you're like one of your starting

83
00:03:45,600 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: defensive players is making a play on teams for you.

84
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's important and you know, if you play on defense,

85
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 2: ready to play on special teams. We knew how important

86
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,640
Speaker 2: the ball was going to be in this game, and

87
00:03:55,720 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 2: so offensively from a ball security standpoint and defensively and

88
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: on teams ability to go take it. But I thought

89
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:03,560
Speaker 2: I took the ball away. Yeah, you know, there's a

90
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: difference between a muffed punt this you had to go

91
00:04:07,360 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 2: take it away and another bruin had to fight for this.

92
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 1: Dude, Yeah, came, let's give him, Let's give him some bluff.

93
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 2: It was one of the longest scrum that he had

94
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 2: it and wasn't giving it up, and so like even

95
00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: at the end they were not pulling him off. He

96
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 2: was not giving that ball up.

97
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:24,200
Speaker 1: Well, it's funny. I was staying on the sideline and

98
00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: I was like, he's got it. Obviously, it's one of

99
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:28,240
Speaker 1: those things that takes so long, and like, well, who's

100
00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:28,720
Speaker 1: got it now?

101
00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,159
Speaker 2: And so he was not backing off man, and so

102
00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 2: like it was easily like a felt like a minute,

103
00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,119
Speaker 2: you know, just nope, not giving it up like guys

104
00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:39,320
Speaker 2: on top trying to roll off. Nope, not giving it up.

105
00:04:40,320 --> 00:04:43,520
Speaker 2: A lot of pride about how important it is, and

106
00:04:43,800 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 2: he was not going to back off for his team.

107
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: That's fantastic. And then you know, Mike, he's a guy

108
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,240
Speaker 1: that you know, obviously great play on teams, but I

109
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 1: think played outstanding on defense. Big tackle in a nice

110
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,279
Speaker 1: Cover two past break up. Like, what have you seen

111
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: from him on the perimeter and maybe for fans at home, like,

112
00:04:58,000 --> 00:04:59,719
Speaker 1: how is it different from what he's been doing in

113
00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: the slow Yeah.

114
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:02,160
Speaker 2: One of the things I've seen, I think the Cover

115
00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 2: two ones and example, is how he's able to use

116
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,760
Speaker 2: his vision from the outside. Now I can see routes,

117
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 2: I can see the quarterback, and so for him being

118
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 2: off some as opposed to playing download and I think

119
00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:12,720
Speaker 2: that's a big deal for him.

120
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely, And it's just fun to watch him. And

121
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: he's got a big challenge this week with Dak Prescott,

122
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 1: who's I don't know. To me, he's playing like a

123
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,560
Speaker 1: top five guy in the NFL, Like, how do you

124
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,400
Speaker 1: get the guys ready to go and how do you

125
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:25,599
Speaker 1: kind of try to disrupt a really fantastic player.

126
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, the offense is absolutely ripping, you know, with Pickens

127
00:05:29,880 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 2: and c Yeah, Purpen and obviously Dak, you know at

128
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:34,760
Speaker 2: the front of it. I think it would appear one

129
00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 2: of his very best years in terms of throwing the

130
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,840
Speaker 2: ball and the accuracy to go. And so it'll take

131
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:41,119
Speaker 2: our best performance for sure.

132
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 1: And you mentioned all the skill position guys they got,

133
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 1: like you know, Pickens just seems to kind of have

134
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,200
Speaker 1: reached new level. What have you seen from him? And

135
00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: like what makes him so dangerous?

136
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 2: You know, I think you've seen like his route tree

137
00:05:51,720 --> 00:05:54,440
Speaker 2: grow as the season's gone. Where early in the season

138
00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,960
Speaker 2: CD was running some of the over routes you know,

139
00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,920
Speaker 2: has beaten you know, the Cover three match teams, and

140
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, now you saw Pickens do

141
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: it running through you know, Cover two to find some

142
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,599
Speaker 2: spaces to get open. So it's been impressive, both of

143
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,839
Speaker 2: them are. But now that there's more routes for him

144
00:06:11,880 --> 00:06:14,719
Speaker 2: that you see, it makes it considerably tougher.

145
00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:16,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, I bet and a guy that you know obviously

146
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 1: they have good receivers. We have good receivers, Terry. I

147
00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:21,640
Speaker 1: mean every time he's on the field just consistently shows up.

148
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,919
Speaker 1: What have you seen from him? Again, like just his

149
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: ability to kind of make that explosive play, make that

150
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 1: big play when you need like that clutch gene. Yes,

151
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 1: how awesome is that be?

152
00:06:30,560 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 2: That's a great way to say it, because he does

153
00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:34,839
Speaker 2: have that there's there's an explosive play to be made

154
00:06:34,920 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 2: and one you know, to go over the top. That's

155
00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 2: to me, Terry yeah, and you know we'll need that again,

156
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 2: you know for certain versus Dallas to make those kind

157
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:45,680
Speaker 2: of big plays and uh and getting the end zone

158
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 2: for sure, that's what's going to take in this game.

159
00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 2: You know, I'm likely gonna be a three to three

160
00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 2: game with guys like Terry and CD and Pickens and

161
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,840
Speaker 2: Back and others. So it'll be a great battle.

162
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:58,479
Speaker 1: And the guy that I've really enjoyed watching the last

163
00:06:58,480 --> 00:07:00,000
Speaker 1: couple of weeks, and I'm gonna be a nerd here

164
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:02,840
Speaker 1: coach is trailing Burks. Yes, not because the receiving stuff,

165
00:07:02,880 --> 00:07:04,480
Speaker 1: but because he seems to be throwing it down as

166
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:06,680
Speaker 1: a blocker, which to me says like just shows his

167
00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 1: passion for the team and passion for this opportunity. It's

168
00:07:09,360 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: got to be great to watch him every week. Yeah.

169
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 2: The competitiveness, I think that's what stands out Logan, you

170
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:16,080
Speaker 2: submit practice, he wants to return every punt you want,

171
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:20,160
Speaker 2: but that that that speaks to you know who he

172
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,920
Speaker 2: is and how he wants to compete in the blocking.

173
00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,960
Speaker 2: So his toughness with and without the ball, and if

174
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:28,680
Speaker 2: you can do that and find your own marks, you know,

175
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 2: to make your impact. I think that's a that's a

176
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:31,880
Speaker 2: really cool thing.

177
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 1: Got a bunch of guys that benefited from not only

178
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,520
Speaker 1: you know, Trailing's blocking, but the offensive line is the

179
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: running back group. And again you know Bill Crosskey Berrett

180
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: scores another touchdown, you know, kind of just giving us

181
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,800
Speaker 1: a taste of how great he can be. How do

182
00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,119
Speaker 1: you feelt about his development? And you know, I guess

183
00:07:47,120 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: what is Anthony Lynn's role in his development?

184
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,280
Speaker 2: Yeah? I think the thing that you've seen, like how

185
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: much studying is going in if you you know, came

186
00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,080
Speaker 2: in Wednesday morning on their first day our Wednesday, like

187
00:07:57,160 --> 00:07:58,840
Speaker 2: who is already calling out the code words?

188
00:07:58,880 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 1: Who is nice?

189
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:01,920
Speaker 2: And it was Bill. You know, it's like, this is

190
00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:04,360
Speaker 2: a guy that is putting in work and so other

191
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 2: people have come to trust him and know him. And

192
00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,920
Speaker 2: there's a guy that's doing the extra and wants to

193
00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:12,080
Speaker 2: demonstrate that. Dude.

194
00:08:12,080 --> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: It's so fun to watch it. But it's so fun

195
00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:16,200
Speaker 1: to watch Chris Rodriguez too. Again they kind of compliment

196
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,400
Speaker 1: each other, well, like there's this explosive player and then

197
00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: a little bit more physical downhill and again his Chris's

198
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 1: story is so unique because it's up for practice, squad down,

199
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,480
Speaker 1: back up, like it's got to be fun to root

200
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:27,480
Speaker 1: for a guy like that.

201
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 2: When you see somebody have an opportunity and they're just

202
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 2: not going to miss it. You know, that was him.

203
00:08:32,200 --> 00:08:33,560
Speaker 2: I'm going to be in the right shape, I'm going

204
00:08:33,600 --> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 2: to be in the right spot, and came to training camp,

205
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 2: he said, Okay, this is somebody that you can count on.

206
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:42,239
Speaker 2: And so his ability to lift others is also really impactful.

207
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,480
Speaker 2: So I couldn't imagine being a rookie and being a

208
00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:47,760
Speaker 2: better spot than Bill is with two veterans like Chris

209
00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 2: and Jeremy just to constantly bring him and help develop him.

210
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:54,680
Speaker 2: And I think that speaks a lot of who they are,

211
00:08:54,840 --> 00:08:56,720
Speaker 2: not just as ballplayers, but as teammates.

212
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 1: And so for that running back spot, like you know,

213
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: what's the hardest thing for those young guys to pick up?

214
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,040
Speaker 1: I know people say protection quite a bit.

215
00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 2: Is that the thing you I would say that, and

216
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 2: the case for Bill was taking what's there? So often

217
00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 2: I can make this big play, I can make this

218
00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:13,040
Speaker 2: big play, and so like make sure press the gap,

219
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 2: then make the cut, and so take what's there. Sometimes

220
00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:19,240
Speaker 2: the three yard run, you know, that's the three yard run.

221
00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 2: But if you're cutting back too early or not making

222
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,800
Speaker 2: the right read. So don't press it, take what's there,

223
00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:27,040
Speaker 2: be aggressive and he's learned to do that for sure.

224
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: And I can't wait to watch these guys run against

225
00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:30,959
Speaker 1: the Stalls defense. Obviously they've had some additions, kind of

226
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: big trades. Quentin Williams is there. Yes, what have you

227
00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,520
Speaker 1: seen from him? Again? He's kind of one of these

228
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: guys that kind of skates under the radar, but very

229
00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: very talented football player.

230
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 2: I think when you put him and said Digazua together

231
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,559
Speaker 2: that can happen, you know from quinnin upfield pressure.

232
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,440
Speaker 1: I mean it was the same way right.

233
00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 2: Like he can penetrate, disrupt, and so the two of

234
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:52,560
Speaker 2: them together have been a handful. In fact, he's Kenny

235
00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:55,200
Speaker 2: Clark and do some buy down and so when you

236
00:09:55,240 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 2: have those you add that to the group and definitely

237
00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,400
Speaker 2: a challenge for sure, and you know Quinn not being

238
00:10:00,440 --> 00:10:08,280
Speaker 2: there in the first game, but man, he's made his impact.

239
00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:17,800
Speaker 1: Coach obviously Christmas Day, huge rivalry, Like what's the level

240
00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:19,760
Speaker 1: of emotion for you heading today's game.

241
00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 2: When the schedule came out and you saw that one

242
00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: and you wanted to circle it, know, and that was

243
00:10:24,720 --> 00:10:28,400
Speaker 2: a standalone game and sort of know us in Dallas

244
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 2: on Christmas for this one to be seen you know,

245
00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 2: all over and houses all over America all over the world,

246
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 2: Like what a cool honor man. And then to add

247
00:10:37,400 --> 00:10:42,040
Speaker 2: a division game into it where the stakes are raised

248
00:10:42,120 --> 00:10:45,199
Speaker 2: a little stronger, a little higher, of two teams that

249
00:10:45,400 --> 00:10:47,439
Speaker 2: like to battle one another, man, Like, it's one of

250
00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 2: the coolest feelings.

251
00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,679
Speaker 1: And so is there a managing of emotions in this

252
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,560
Speaker 1: game for the guys, because I remember like the divisional

253
00:10:52,559 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: games for us were always crazy big and it was

254
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:56,000
Speaker 1: almost like the coach I'd be like, hey, guys, you know,

255
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:57,280
Speaker 1: like pick your spot here.

256
00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:59,880
Speaker 2: And all of that goes around this one, like think

257
00:11:00,040 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 2: all the families are in town for that's right. So

258
00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,080
Speaker 2: all of that you have to manage and make sure

259
00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:09,319
Speaker 2: that everything's peaking, you know. So when it gets a

260
00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:11,840
Speaker 2: Thursday at one o'clock, man, we absolutely let it rip.

261
00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,680
Speaker 1: Dude, I can't wait to watch a coach Merry Christmas.

262
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:17,120
Speaker 1: Merry Christmas to everyone at home Christmas. I'm logan Paulson
