I want to get 27 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: some takeaways from your Patriots in a little bit, but 28 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,759 Speaker 1: just sort of the overall how's the Super Bowl been, 29 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: because frankly, I just got off a plane and we 30 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: came straight here from a plane. 31 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:46,600 Speaker 3: Well, first off, welcome to San Francisco, where it's probably 32 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,600 Speaker 3: a little bit chilly compared to what you were dealing 33 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,680 Speaker 3: with in La the warmer tenths in February. For me, 34 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:54,360 Speaker 3: the opposite came from five degrees to sixty five. I've 35 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,800 Speaker 3: been sweating walking around the city all week, but there's 36 00:01:56,800 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 3: been a buzz in the air. 37 00:01:57,880 --> 00:01:59,000 Speaker 1: It's very exciting. 38 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,080 Speaker 4: There's sign all over the place. 39 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 3: I'm seeing pop up shops going up on every corner 40 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 3: of every block. You can find a coffee shop anywhere. 41 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: There's people all over the place. 42 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 5: It's a great time. 43 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 6: He's excited. 44 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 7: Yes, he's in a city where there's a coffee shop 45 00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:15,320 Speaker 7: every corner. 46 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:19,359 Speaker 8: Right now. 47 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: I think having the Pro Bowl in town this week 48 00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: has made a massive difference to how busy it's been. 49 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:25,720 Speaker 2: Like we normally come in on Monday and there's not 50 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:27,880 Speaker 2: a huge amount going on, and instead it's just been 51 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,880 Speaker 2: already three absolutely manic days. It's absolutely packed here today 52 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,720 Speaker 2: on Radio Row, and it's just ramping up and ramping up. 53 00:02:34,760 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 2: I'm not sure I'm going to be ready to get 54 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 2: to as high as we're going to be by the 55 00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 2: time it gets to sick. 56 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: It's a good call about the Pro Bowl, which has 57 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,840 Speaker 1: lots of problems. It's almost all problems at this point. 58 00:02:44,480 --> 00:02:48,040 Speaker 1: Even my son, who annually just loves the Pro Bowl 59 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:50,959 Speaker 1: and the Pro Bowl games, somewhere around the third quarter 60 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,400 Speaker 1: of that flag football game, started to get angry and 61 00:02:54,480 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: actually was like searching on my computer about like are 62 00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 1: they going to cancel the Pro Bowl? You know what's 63 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,200 Speaker 1: he misses the games. There's a lot going on. But 64 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: the big positive is, yes, you get some of the players, 65 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: big time players earlier on in the week and you 66 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: see that so to set the state at stage. Every 67 00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: Radio Row kind of has a similar vibe. 68 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 9: But you know, overstimulated, it's overstimulated iHeart has set us 69 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 9: up with a beautiful stage here, but like as we're 70 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,680 Speaker 9: waiting to go on, you know, right behind us literally 71 00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 9: as we arrive, like Aaron Jones just standing there, Christian 72 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:29,040 Speaker 9: McCaffrey's standing there talking to Brian Baldinger. 73 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 1: And that's just how Radio Row and this week is 74 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: gonna be. So we're really looking forward to it. We're 75 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 1: gonna do in this show just a little bit of news, 76 00:03:37,320 --> 00:03:40,920 Speaker 1: we're gonna get some takeaways from Nick, and we're just 77 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 1: gonna enjoy our time with Bill Gavin while we have 78 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,160 Speaker 1: it early in the week. 79 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 2: To come on your show. 80 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,440 Speaker 1: And now that's I mean, you got a long way 81 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: to go. Let's just start with the the news about 82 00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,720 Speaker 1: Drake May and his shoulder that weirdly we haven't really 83 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 1: talked about here at all, and I have thought that 84 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 1: it's potentially more of an issue than maybe the Patriots 85 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: have been leading on. You don't just sit out of 86 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: practice for no reason. I don't think you said he 87 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 1: sat out of practice because he was hurt. He said 88 00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:16,479 Speaker 1: he felt better coming off the plane than he felt 89 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:19,200 Speaker 1: coming on, which you know says it was a factor 90 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: for him as late as when he got onto that plane. 91 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 1: Let's actually listen to Drake May in one of his 92 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:27,839 Speaker 1: many already media appearances so far this week. 93 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm feeling great, you know, I'm so fortunate to 94 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,800 Speaker 10: be out here with these guys. You got full with 95 00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,560 Speaker 10: your practice, you knows, felt good, you know, on Monday, 96 00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 10: and looking forward to get backut there today and tomorrow 97 00:04:37,200 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 10: and Friday and having a normal week. 98 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 4: So looking forward to that and feeling good. 99 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 1: Okay, And my guy, you know, he seems he seems loose, 100 00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: he seems happy, He seems like a young man. I 101 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,599 Speaker 1: just every time I look at Drake May, it just 102 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:52,760 Speaker 1: strikes me that, like he is a child. 103 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:56,320 Speaker 2: It should be the youngest call back to win the 104 00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: Super Bowl, Old Tommy. 105 00:04:57,160 --> 00:05:00,120 Speaker 1: Because right so, But just the like even as an 106 00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:03,720 Speaker 1: average twenty three year old goes, he gives up like 107 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: a very young vibe. Being around the Patriots a little bit. 108 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: Any thoughts on the injury shook in just what you've 109 00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,800 Speaker 1: seen out of May this week. I was a little 110 00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 1: worried he might be kind of like stiff and overwhelmed, 111 00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 1: but he seems he seems fine now. He seems like 112 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 1: the same always. 113 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 4: He seems very built for the moment. 114 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:22,120 Speaker 3: Actually There's been a gaggle of media surrounding him anytime 115 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:25,200 Speaker 3: you try to find him at these availability sessions, and 116 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: he seems like he's handling the entire pressure of it, 117 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 3: the notoriety of it, really well. I'm most curious by 118 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:34,640 Speaker 3: how somebody turns a corner on a plane when it 119 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 3: comes to health, because when I you know, because when 120 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 3: I'm on planes, I end up coming off very stiff. 121 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,520 Speaker 3: So I'm happy that he had the opposite effect, and 122 00:05:43,520 --> 00:05:46,160 Speaker 3: then he seems to be trending toward playing. It's funny, though, 123 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:47,720 Speaker 3: that we look at the Super Bowl and we think 124 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:49,640 Speaker 3: about the other quarterback on the other side was the 125 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:51,440 Speaker 3: one that was all worried about injuries throughout most of 126 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 3: the postseason. 127 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,480 Speaker 4: Now we got Drake May involved. 128 00:05:53,520 --> 00:05:54,800 Speaker 3: I think both of them are going to be fine, 129 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:56,360 Speaker 3: but it's something that we have to continue to track. 130 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,400 Speaker 3: It doesn't seem like a big storyline or something that 131 00:05:58,400 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 3: they're really concerned. 132 00:05:59,279 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 4: About right now. 133 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,719 Speaker 1: It's something we won't really know until the game happens, 134 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,160 Speaker 1: and even then, you're not, like, there's no question obviously 135 00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,960 Speaker 1: both of them are starting if there was anything really wrong, 136 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: But I think there probably was a moment after that 137 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: game when maybe there was some real concerns about may 138 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:14,719 Speaker 1: inside that building. 139 00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:16,400 Speaker 7: I mean, I don't want to speculate, so I'll now 140 00:06:16,440 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 7: proceed to speculate, like the attrition and the reps that 141 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 7: he's taken over the course of the season. He mentioned 142 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 7: it flat out before Super Bowl media week even began, 143 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 7: a week before even the gap week between the AFC 144 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 7: Championship game and this whole media circus and all of that. 145 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 7: He was talking about how many times he had thrown 146 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:39,600 Speaker 7: over the course of the season. For me, my alarm 147 00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 7: signal goes off in my head of like, oh, so 148 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 7: they're going to try to rest him a little bit, 149 00:06:43,120 --> 00:06:45,800 Speaker 7: especially in that gap week, because he has the reps 150 00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:48,440 Speaker 7: he doesn't need to get any more rapport. The game 151 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:51,520 Speaker 7: install actually starts this week, the week of the Super Bowl, 152 00:06:51,520 --> 00:06:54,880 Speaker 7: so it's fresh in players minds. So yeah, I think 153 00:06:55,720 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 7: at best it's probably just a rest scenario because he's 154 00:06:58,839 --> 00:06:59,360 Speaker 7: been feeling it. 155 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, because this is the gap we four Other than 156 00:07:01,440 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 3: some extra rest, do you have the extra week at 157 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 3: your disposal? 158 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 1: The lay you're concerned for me is maybe he's a 159 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: little mentally tired that that sequence they showed on NFL 160 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: films where he says to Josh McDaniels like, this is 161 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 1: really hard. I don't know if you saw that, Will 162 00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:17,720 Speaker 1: like He's just like, this is really hard. And everyone 163 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: gave Josh McDaniels some credit for saying, yeah, it's like 164 00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: it's it's gonna be hard six and a half minutes, 165 00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:24,760 Speaker 1: and I think it was taken like a tiny bit 166 00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: out of context. It wasn't just the Broncos are hard 167 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:29,800 Speaker 1: and I'm getting killed. It was I can't I can't see, 168 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: you can't see, you can't grip the ball. They were 169 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 1: going against the wind. It was it was a very 170 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,040 Speaker 1: unique scenario. But he has played his worst football in 171 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 1: the playoffs. It is the most difficult defenses that he's played. 172 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:44,840 Speaker 1: It's been difficult conditions. And what you said in terms 173 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:46,600 Speaker 1: of all the reps he's taken like we are so 174 00:07:46,800 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: passed whatever unc season would have ended. I mean, they're 175 00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: not even making bowls half the time, Like that thing 176 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:56,480 Speaker 1: was over six months ago and he's having a push pass. 177 00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:57,920 Speaker 1: So should I be worried about my guy? 178 00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:58,120 Speaker 11: No? 179 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 8: No, I don't think you should be worried about your guy. 180 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,680 Speaker 2: Told each about him being young, but the maturity I 181 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 2: think he showed in both that moment and then in 182 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,400 Speaker 2: the moment that's been much talked about, the naked boot 183 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,440 Speaker 2: on the fourth down, which picks up that first down 184 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: which ends the game. Basically, we spoke to a number 185 00:08:12,160 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: of guys about that, Michael, and when we spoke with 186 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 2: Ashton Grant, the quarterbacks coach, and with Todd Downey as well, 187 00:08:17,400 --> 00:08:19,920 Speaker 2: and for all of them, they're like, I didn't really 188 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 2: realize there was all that conversation about the fact that 189 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 2: the lineman didn't know he was going to do it, 190 00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:26,120 Speaker 2: but apparently he and Josh McDaniels discussed it on the sideline. 191 00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:27,800 Speaker 2: He said he wanted to do it, Josh gave him 192 00:08:27,800 --> 00:08:30,120 Speaker 2: the autonomy to do it, and it was his decision, yeah, 193 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,720 Speaker 2: to not tell anyone. So I think he is a 194 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:36,200 Speaker 2: level of confidence that is exactly right for this moment. 195 00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:38,600 Speaker 2: I think he is going to approach it in all 196 00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 2: the right ways. And I was amazed by his maturity 197 00:08:40,920 --> 00:08:42,679 Speaker 2: every time, Like we only see him an opening night. 198 00:08:42,720 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 2: I've not been back and forth to Santa Clara to 199 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:47,080 Speaker 2: go and hang out with all the patriots like like 200 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:47,880 Speaker 2: shuk has. 201 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 6: But I'd sound a little better about that. 202 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,960 Speaker 2: No, No, I'm absolutely fine with the bus every day. 203 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 2: That's that's not a problem. 204 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 1: I forgot that. You know, will Gavin boots on the 205 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,520 Speaker 1: ground for days, we can tap into that. Let's listen 206 00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:04,479 Speaker 1: to Mike Donald talking about Sam Darnold and his workload 207 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: throughout the week in the last couple of weeks. 208 00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:10,720 Speaker 12: Well, we'll see today, We'll see today. It's definitely gradually 209 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:15,319 Speaker 12: increasing by the day, So some days more than others. 210 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 12: But he's in a great spot. And no, he's really confident. 211 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 12: We'll see how today plays out. Not tally sure how 212 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:25,120 Speaker 12: many throws or what percentage throws. I can't really give 213 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 12: you right now. 214 00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: Okay, so we think Donald, if he was healthy enough 215 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 1: to have that sort of performance in the NFC Championship, 216 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: I'm not worried, even in the slightest. And I think 217 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 1: he's been kind of embracing the media night of it all. 218 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: I've appreciated that, Like Mike McDonald definitely lets his guys be. Yeah, 219 00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:46,960 Speaker 1: they are because they've kind of been let loose on 220 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 1: this city, and I think they are kind of enjoying 221 00:09:50,200 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: being in the super Bowl. As I see Ricky Hollywood, 222 00:09:54,080 --> 00:10:01,440 Speaker 1: this is an amazing legend. He runs away and what 223 00:10:01,520 --> 00:10:03,880 Speaker 1: have you seen out of the Seahawks and it starts there. 224 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:04,160 Speaker 13: Yeah. 225 00:10:04,160 --> 00:10:06,559 Speaker 2: I have to say, like opening Night in previous years, 226 00:10:06,600 --> 00:10:08,960 Speaker 2: there's always been like generally you've seen one team who 227 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: come in super loose, particularly if they've been Super Bowls before, 228 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: particularly they have that experience, and then you maybe see 229 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 2: another team who come in a little bit tense, a 230 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:18,119 Speaker 2: little bit kind of not ready for the moment. 231 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 13: I thought, and it kind of helped. 232 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,480 Speaker 2: The Opening night this year. Instead of being in a 233 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: stadium with thousands of fans and kind of all that 234 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:26,840 Speaker 2: rigmarole around it, it was in a convention center. It 235 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:28,280 Speaker 2: was kind of quiet in there. You could actually have 236 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 2: conversations with people, which was I don't know if those 237 00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:32,400 Speaker 2: of us have been covering for a while, was kind 238 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:33,680 Speaker 2: of delightful, refreshing. 239 00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 240 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I certainly enjoyed myself a little bit more, even 241 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: if the TV product wasn't as good, and both teams 242 00:10:39,960 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 2: came out seemingly super relaxed, seemingly super like just ready 243 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: for the moment. And I think there is a huge 244 00:10:45,880 --> 00:10:49,119 Speaker 2: amount of experience on the coaching staffs, particularly of the Patriots, 245 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 2: that allow them to lean on that allow them to 246 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:55,040 Speaker 2: lean on the experience of those above them, if it's 247 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 2: not going to come from a playing side. 248 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,840 Speaker 1: Some other injury news. Robert Spalane has talked openly the 249 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 1: linebacker of the Patriots that he is expected to play 250 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. Harold Landry sounds positive. So you 251 00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,360 Speaker 1: know this is not a game that's going to be dominated. 252 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:13,960 Speaker 1: I don't think by like injury stories during the week 253 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,400 Speaker 1: while we got you shook, you know, right off the top. 254 00:11:16,679 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: I don't know if Will needs to go and. 255 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 4: I know I'm good. 256 00:11:19,040 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 11: I'm good. 257 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:21,400 Speaker 2: My wife just texts me she's obviously seen a photo 258 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 2: that saying the great Will Cavin Shockett Tour of twenty 259 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:25,160 Speaker 2: twenty six. 260 00:11:25,280 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 8: Yeah, the Super Bowl so far. 261 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, we need to keep a counter on how many 262 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 3: times you sign autographs for people, if. 263 00:11:32,920 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 2: I have actually been keeping accountter on how many of 264 00:11:34,679 --> 00:11:35,480 Speaker 2: yous have done this week. 265 00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 7: And to set the scene, I mean, obviously we have 266 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,719 Speaker 7: one of the most famous people in NFL media on 267 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 7: our stage right now. To set the scene up, an 268 00:11:42,800 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 7: entire like thirty rack of wings just walked by on 269 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,520 Speaker 7: a platter. The cast of Workaholics is just behind Greg. 270 00:11:49,559 --> 00:11:51,200 Speaker 7: It's very hard to focus on Greg talking right now 271 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 7: because there's Red Solo Cups happening as well. 272 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:55,679 Speaker 6: This is Radio row in a nutshell. 273 00:11:56,200 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: I want to hear from you, Shook, some take. I'm 274 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: gonna put you on the spot before we race through 275 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 1: just a couple of little items of news and then 276 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 1: get to our interviews. Takeaways from your time so far 277 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:10,319 Speaker 1: with the Patriots. 278 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 3: You know, I think it's interesting that this is a 279 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:13,800 Speaker 3: team that, yes, they have a history of being at 280 00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 3: the super Bowl, but this roster does not. 281 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 4: Yet. 282 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 3: They have a coach who has a history of playing 283 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,480 Speaker 3: in the super Bowl, so you think, okay, you're gonna 284 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 3: come up with experience. You have Josh McDaniels on that staff, 285 00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 3: there's a number of other coaches. I just spent a 286 00:12:23,280 --> 00:12:25,120 Speaker 3: lot of time talking with Doug Moron today about the 287 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:28,400 Speaker 3: offensive line, and the prevailing theme that I get from 288 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,800 Speaker 3: every interaction with every player, no matter which side of 289 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: the ball they play on or what role they fill 290 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 3: in this team is that they are a tight knit group. 291 00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 3: Togetherness seems to be dominating their whole process and how 292 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 3: they got here. I don't know if I've seen and 293 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 3: this may sound hyperbolic, and I acknowledge that, but I 294 00:12:44,480 --> 00:12:46,160 Speaker 3: don't know if I've seen in my this is not 295 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 3: my sixth super Bowl a team that just seems so 296 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 3: tight knit coming to the Super Bowl like this. And 297 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 3: while they may be the underdog and they may be 298 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:54,520 Speaker 3: the team that most expect. 299 00:12:54,200 --> 00:12:56,920 Speaker 1: To lose or whatever that, what have you, they sure 300 00:12:56,960 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 1: seem to believe a. 301 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,520 Speaker 4: Lot in themselves right now. And it's because they all 302 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:01,440 Speaker 4: have each other's best. 303 00:13:01,480 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 8: I really shook mentioning Doug Maroon. 304 00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:04,760 Speaker 2: So I've been saying this last few days that coaching 305 00:13:04,760 --> 00:13:07,040 Speaker 2: stuff feels like a proper island of misfit toys, like 306 00:13:07,080 --> 00:13:09,520 Speaker 2: I mentioned Todd Downing already, Ashton Grant and the quarterback 307 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 2: coach who's thirty years old and never played in the 308 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 2: NFL that came through the diversity program, the Bill Watshed 309 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 2: diversity Program. Like it's a really interesting room of people 310 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 2: and ideas, and seemingly it's been encouraged by both Josh 311 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:22,400 Speaker 2: McDaniels and at the head coaching position to really be 312 00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: like a melting pot of ideas. I think it's really interesting. 313 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,560 Speaker 7: One of Rabel's best talents is hiring people. 314 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:31,080 Speaker 6: He's very very good at it. 315 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 7: And we joked at the beginning of the year that yes, 316 00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,440 Speaker 7: you hired Josh McDaniels, who's kind of coming into his 317 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 7: like fifth or sixth era in a really refreshing way 318 00:13:40,920 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 7: as an offensive coordinator, But you also set about hiring 319 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 7: a lot of people to make up for the fact 320 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:50,120 Speaker 7: that Josh McDaniels is a very specific type of coach 321 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:53,400 Speaker 7: who's not necessarily going to be the player guy who's 322 00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,040 Speaker 7: going to lead the room in that way. But they 323 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 7: also have they have such a complimentary skill set staff. 324 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 7: Thomas Brown who won a Super Bowl with the Rams, 325 00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 7: like he's over there now, like he's in the room too, 326 00:14:04,800 --> 00:14:07,680 Speaker 7: And and these are people who they all have some 327 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:12,080 Speaker 7: sort of pocket of experience at this highest level. And 328 00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 7: I and I think Seattle, on the converse, is built 329 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,880 Speaker 7: that way too, with with some of the pockets of 330 00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 7: experience within the staff. 331 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:24,280 Speaker 2: And as Rob Gronkowski told me earlier, the offensive cold 332 00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 2: nights worth of old time. 333 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 8: So there you go. 334 00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,320 Speaker 7: That's for But I love I love all these guys 335 00:14:28,320 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 7: that are saying that because they're like specifically specifically and like, hey, 336 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 7: they're they're valid, and I mean, he's he's got the 337 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,040 Speaker 7: chips right, But but it is funny because it's like, 338 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:42,800 Speaker 7: you know, hey, we're we're in we're in the pocket here. 339 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: With Josh McDaniel's I love that.

But before that, I did want to get 342 00:14:51,880 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: your your takeaways, like it was gonna be three takeaways. 343 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:57,520 Speaker 1: That was one fire off the last two. 344 00:14:57,840 --> 00:14:59,000 Speaker 4: That's the prevailing one for sure. 345 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 3: The second one is this team is such an interesting 346 00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 3: blend of rookies and veterans, and they, for some reason 347 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 3: have found this. Maybe it's a secret saucer or a 348 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,880 Speaker 3: perfect like concoction of balance between the two. You talk 349 00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 3: to Will Campbell and Jared Wilson, a couple of rookie 350 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 3: offensive linemen. They're getting a lot of attention. They manned 351 00:15:14,240 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 3: the left side of the line. Of course, it's an 352 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:17,840 Speaker 3: easy storyline to follow in this week, and yet they 353 00:15:17,880 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 3: continue to mention how not only that the veterans are 354 00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:22,560 Speaker 3: important in their development, but how they keep them honest. 355 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,440 Speaker 3: How they told each of them, you guys spoil you 356 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:27,240 Speaker 3: don't understand how hard it is to get here, and 357 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 3: you're just doing this in year one. And I think 358 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 3: that dynamic is very interesting for this team, given the 359 00:15:31,840 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 3: fact that none of them have really been here safe 360 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:35,600 Speaker 3: for a handful of The Patriots have five and the 361 00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 3: Seahawks have three players of Super Bowl experience, so the 362 00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:40,320 Speaker 3: majority of them have not been here, and yet they 363 00:15:40,320 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 3: have enough combined experience and youthful talent. Then it makes 364 00:15:43,400 --> 00:15:45,560 Speaker 3: for an interesting blend that I'm very curious to see 365 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 3: how it'll match up with the Seahawks on Sunday, who 366 00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 3: are very similar in some ways. 367 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:55,160 Speaker 1: I like, look at these two teams and it really 368 00:15:55,200 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 1: bothers me that I seem like reporters a couple like 369 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 1: people that seem to know ball, that seem to like ball, 370 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 1: that are like this super Bowl is not doing it. 371 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,320 Speaker 1: Just it feels like there's like less. I just I'm 372 00:16:10,360 --> 00:16:13,760 Speaker 1: just like I'm having a hard time like getting excited for. 373 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,640 Speaker 7: Like to the most interesting, like truly interesting, the way 374 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 7: they're built, the pivots in some cases, the infrastructure, the 375 00:16:21,200 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 7: organizational infrastructure, to the most interesting teams inall this season. 376 00:16:24,920 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 1: You even like ball, like because see Seattle, I don't 377 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: We're gonna get one more point on the Patriots and 378 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:37,119 Speaker 1: it obviously fly. Okay, We've talked to a lot of Patriots, 379 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: but if you look at where Seattle was and the 380 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 1: way way that they've built their team through these draft 381 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:47,720 Speaker 1: picks and free agency and the trades, and the way 382 00:16:47,760 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 1: that they play defense where they they are the they 383 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: are the cutting edge, and obviously Darnald's story and an 384 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,960 Speaker 1: electric like first team All Pro in JS. I just 385 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: I don't get I love the little I mean what 386 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:03,080 Speaker 1: you you want? You want the Eagles and the Chiefs. 387 00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,280 Speaker 2: Again exactly, let's don't forget the biggest story on the 388 00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 2: other side of the problem, which is defensive coordinates. To 389 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:14,879 Speaker 2: Adam too, we had some talk and he's he's sensectional. 390 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,439 Speaker 7: I think I'm so happy you did. I'm happy you 391 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:19,400 Speaker 7: brought him up. You know what was really cool? Will 392 00:17:19,520 --> 00:17:24,520 Speaker 7: you'll love this is so the London Warriors, the football team, 393 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:27,360 Speaker 7: the British football team that that he kind of came 394 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:29,879 Speaker 7: up around. F a Obata is a product of the 395 00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:33,119 Speaker 7: London Warriors. 396 00:17:31,760 --> 00:17:32,600 Speaker 6: Half of the team. 397 00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:34,120 Speaker 7: So they are all still a lot of those guys 398 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 7: that are all still friends with each other, half of 399 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 7: that team and coaching staff and organization quote unquote, because 400 00:17:39,840 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 7: it's a little more on the casual side, no no 401 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:47,080 Speaker 7: disrespect meant came over to the States to that Seattle 402 00:17:47,359 --> 00:17:51,439 Speaker 7: Rams game at Sofi Stadium to support Ad and Dirty. 403 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 6: It was the coolest thing. I I love it, I 404 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:58,400 Speaker 6: love I love his story. He's a great coach. Coaches 405 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 6: I talked to on that staff are so oh hi 406 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:03,120 Speaker 6: on him to be a future head coach. It's I'm 407 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 6: excited for him. 408 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 3: And if you want to say, you know, do you 409 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 3: even love ball? The people that say the Super Bowl 410 00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,719 Speaker 3: that lacks juice? You just mentioned the Seahawks defense. They 411 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,160 Speaker 3: are on the cutting edge. They bring up a blueprint 412 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 3: that every other team is going to try to mimic 413 00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:15,480 Speaker 3: in the years to come, but you need personnel to 414 00:18:15,480 --> 00:18:18,320 Speaker 3: make it work. That matchup against Josh McDaniels, a guy 415 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 3: who all these players just said is one of the best, 416 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:22,600 Speaker 3: if not the best, offensive coordinator. 417 00:18:22,600 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 8: How could you not like that alone? 418 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 1: Yes, come on now, I just feel like, all this is. 419 00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,080 Speaker 6: The mean, This is the mean. This is Mike McDonald, 420 00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:31,880 Speaker 6: this is the meme. 421 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 7: It's the the grim Reaper going down the hallway of doors. 422 00:18:35,359 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 7: It's Kyle Shanahans, it's Sean mcvaks. Now it's Josh McDaniel's 423 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,879 Speaker 7: coming up the offensive scheme lords, Mike McDonald's coming for him. 424 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 1: All I like that. But what's what you missed there 425 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,960 Speaker 1: is Zach Kerr as his own and everyone's like, who's 426 00:18:53,040 --> 00:18:56,280 Speaker 1: Zach Kerr? He's crossing off quarterbacks and Sam Darnold Unlike 427 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,359 Speaker 1: the last couple. I like this new theory we're thrown 428 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: out there that you know, he so familiar with the 429 00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,760 Speaker 1: NFC West teams that that this will you know that 430 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,000 Speaker 1: he got comfortable, that his eyes got a little faster 431 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: in a positive way. Let's hit you know, speaking of 432 00:19:08,960 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: you know, all time great coaches. Nathaniel Hacketts back in 433 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:16,359 Speaker 1: the league. He's the offensive coordinator of the Cardinals. Uh 434 00:19:17,160 --> 00:19:19,960 Speaker 1: just just quickly, I got you guys that one. 435 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was like, you had me in the first half. 436 00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 6: I'm not gonna lie. Yeah. Interesting. 437 00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:26,360 Speaker 7: So okay, so a lot of times when a head 438 00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 7: coach is going to be a play caller, Michael Flora 439 00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 7: said he's going to be a play caller. On its face, 440 00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,880 Speaker 7: obviously this is a very eyebrow raising higher because at. 441 00:19:32,800 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 1: The end, well, the Cardinals, if I didn't say that 442 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: my fault. 443 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 7: As the offensive coordinator and and Nathaniel Hackett was obviously 444 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 7: a complete disaster as as a head coach. But part 445 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,640 Speaker 7: of The reason he became beloved to play calling head coaches, 446 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 7: including Matt Lafleur Mike Wilfloor's brother, is because there's a 447 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:52,200 Speaker 7: lot of stuff that the play caller as a head 448 00:19:52,200 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 7: coach cannot do infrastructurally and in install and in meetings 449 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 7: and all these types of things just can't do. It 450 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 7: has to be in all of parts of the building. 451 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,720 Speaker 7: You hire someone with experience doing sort of that secondary 452 00:20:04,800 --> 00:20:07,679 Speaker 7: work like that. To me, that's what this hire looks like. 453 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:10,720 Speaker 7: And if you go below the surface of it, not 454 00:20:10,800 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 7: saying it's a good idea necessarily, but I can understand 455 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 7: the process behind. 456 00:20:14,800 --> 00:20:17,200 Speaker 2: It, and hey, maybe al Roach just becomes an Arizona colf. 457 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 1: It also doesn't change the vibe of like, hey, we 458 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:23,719 Speaker 1: were the tenth team to hire a head coach, that 459 00:20:23,800 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: he wasn't one of our top three or four picks, 460 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 1: and that he's not getting his topics. So I hope 461 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:32,280 Speaker 1: they're able to change that around. Frank w Reich becoming 462 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 1: the offensive coordinator in New York with the Jets has 463 00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: a similar type of vibe. Now, Frank Reich has some 464 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,960 Speaker 1: great years running offenses in the NFL, and they weren't 465 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:46,000 Speaker 1: that long ago. But his last couple of years Carolina 466 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: and with the Colts did not go well. He's familiar 467 00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: with Stanford. Yeah, Aaron Glenn going, I'm not. 468 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:55,439 Speaker 6: Even counting that recent for recent. 469 00:20:56,080 --> 00:20:59,360 Speaker 1: That's a tricky one. So good luck to that man. 470 00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,960 Speaker 1: And and uh, the Washington Post. I did want to 471 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: just mention how heartbroken we are about them basically shuttering 472 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:10,920 Speaker 1: their sports pages. I hate that a frequent guest de 473 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,000 Speaker 1: Sean Reed had just gone there to cover the Commanders. 474 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,879 Speaker 1: But you could just list so many great uh sports 475 00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:18,919 Speaker 1: writers and calumnists over the years that I have worked for 476 00:21:18,920 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 1: that paper, and it's just horrible what they did there. 477 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: Before we let you go, though, Will. 478 00:21:23,920 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 2: Sorry, I'd like I agree with, I absolutely agree with 479 00:21:27,040 --> 00:21:28,840 Speaker 2: everything you said there. And it was an important and 480 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:30,960 Speaker 2: somber moment. But the whole way through it, there was 481 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: a dancing dog directly behind you doing routines. And that's 482 00:21:34,920 --> 00:21:36,360 Speaker 2: the most radio row moment of my. 483 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:40,640 Speaker 3: Entire weal of man, somebody from dog Tea. 484 00:21:40,760 --> 00:21:44,199 Speaker 1: They focused, they focused, Will, We're about to give you 485 00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:47,199 Speaker 1: some pop, and I know how you love pop. So 486 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 1: you mentioned Gronk earlier. Uh, he will be featured actually 487 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:56,320 Speaker 1: in this little clip that our you know, great producer 488 00:21:56,520 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 1: Eric Roberts clipped months ago just hoping for the moment 489 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: when it would come in handy. And now that moment 490 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: has come.

So 558 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:22,840 Speaker 13: but it's definitely great to be. 559 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: Here your your sunglasses. Do you find that it's almost 560 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: easier because it's a lot here for radio row It 561 00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:32,800 Speaker 1: like provides like a little bit of a barrier between yourself, and. 562 00:25:34,359 --> 00:25:36,600 Speaker 15: That's that's one of the main reasons why I like 563 00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:38,959 Speaker 15: to wear shades. Just kind of puts me in my 564 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,480 Speaker 15: own little bubble, kind of like allow everybody to be 565 00:25:42,560 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 15: outside of that bubble that I feel like, so it 566 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:47,840 Speaker 15: just feels like I'm kind of hitting a little bit, 567 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,800 Speaker 15: which I'm really not. Uh, but you know, just of 568 00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:53,760 Speaker 15: course the fashion style, the color of them, the way 569 00:25:53,760 --> 00:25:55,920 Speaker 15: they look also gives off the stakes. 570 00:25:56,200 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 4: Nobody knows your next move. 571 00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:01,920 Speaker 3: Looking exactly exactly as on the field exactly. 572 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 8: I love that. 573 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 13: I love it. 574 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:05,600 Speaker 1: That's why I wish I was better at football, because 575 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: like I can't pull that off, honestly, Like even the 576 00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,280 Speaker 1: number three receiver on your team, no, no offense, Like 577 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: he can't pull that off either. You gotta be justin Jefferson. 578 00:26:15,119 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 13: Hey, I could agree to that one thing. 579 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,520 Speaker 1: I really appreciate that. And I've watched you and even 580 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,120 Speaker 1: though you come into the league obviously ahead of where 581 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 1: most rookies are coming into the league, I think You've 582 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 1: added a lot to your game, uh, throughout your course 583 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:31,919 Speaker 1: of your career. I got to watch you twice this 584 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 1: year because I was overseas. I'saw both your your game's 585 00:26:34,680 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 1: overseas in Dublin and the UK, and I have my thoughts, 586 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:39,480 Speaker 1: but I want to hear from you. What do you 587 00:26:39,560 --> 00:26:43,359 Speaker 1: think you're better at now specifically than you were even 588 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:45,959 Speaker 1: let's say two years ago, at playing the position. 589 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,520 Speaker 13: I would say learning my leverages, learning. 590 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:54,160 Speaker 15: That especially, you know, getting double team and triple team 591 00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 15: out there, you kind of got to understand more of 592 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:00,520 Speaker 15: the game, more of the way they are playing you, 593 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 15: understanding the routes and how you can win on different routes. 594 00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:07,639 Speaker 13: I can say. So it's it's. 595 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 15: Been different these last two years based on how I've 596 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:15,000 Speaker 15: just been getting covered. But you know, of course before then, 597 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 15: there was more one on one coverages, me just going 598 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,959 Speaker 15: out there and just running off of one person and 599 00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:24,520 Speaker 15: getting open. Now just having to really dissect the defense, 600 00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 15: understanding where I'm gonna be at on the field, where 601 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,320 Speaker 15: the quarterback wants me to be at on that field, 602 00:27:29,520 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 15: and I got to get there having to go through 603 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,439 Speaker 15: a couple more different people. So it's just more about 604 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 15: learning the game more than what I do. And then 605 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:42,120 Speaker 15: of course, besides football, I gotta lean more into being 606 00:27:42,119 --> 00:27:44,520 Speaker 15: the leader, more into being a captain of the team, 607 00:27:45,080 --> 00:27:47,040 Speaker 15: especially based on this past season. 608 00:27:47,240 --> 00:27:48,600 Speaker 3: There's a lot of different ways you can take with that, 609 00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:50,359 Speaker 3: right because, like, first off, how does that affect your 610 00:27:50,359 --> 00:27:52,600 Speaker 3: off season training? But then you think about being a leader. 611 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:54,359 Speaker 3: You have a changing quarterback, You kind of need to 612 00:27:54,400 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 3: be the veteran in that room. When you were once 613 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 3: the up and coming youngster, now you're proven, So like, 614 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,040 Speaker 3: how does that affect the way you approach the entire 615 00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 3: season starting with the off season. 616 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,639 Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean the off season is where you know, 617 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,160 Speaker 15: you're kind of getting your tricks, your bags, their tricks, 618 00:28:09,200 --> 00:28:11,000 Speaker 15: and you're trying to figure out the different things that 619 00:28:11,119 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 15: kind of that that can kind of get you over 620 00:28:13,840 --> 00:28:17,520 Speaker 15: that humph. And this year is all about just of course, 621 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:21,200 Speaker 15: locking in with with the JJ and just understanding that 622 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 15: we got a lot of work to do and we 623 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:25,280 Speaker 15: got a place that we would like to go and 624 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 15: the only way is to get there is to put 625 00:28:27,200 --> 00:28:29,600 Speaker 15: in that extra work when no one's looking, when no 626 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 15: one's watching, when no one is keeping an eye over us, 627 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:36,080 Speaker 15: that we're building that connection building that relationship with each other. 628 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:39,000 Speaker 15: Uh So, whenever it's time to go back into that building, 629 00:28:39,320 --> 00:28:42,520 Speaker 15: you know, we're not starting off, you know, all fresh again. 630 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 15: You know, we're we're going back to the amount of 631 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 15: work that we put in throughout the whole entire offseason. 632 00:28:48,120 --> 00:28:50,840 Speaker 15: Now we have probably the longest off season in the 633 00:28:50,960 --> 00:28:54,000 Speaker 15: history of sports, with all of the different like with 634 00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 15: months of training, months of just having free time. So 635 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:00,680 Speaker 15: it's it's definitely going to be a long process into 636 00:29:00,720 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 15: working with him and getting to where we would like 637 00:29:03,360 --> 00:29:03,520 Speaker 15: to go. 638 00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 3: That's kind of a good thing though, right, Like the 639 00:29:05,200 --> 00:29:07,400 Speaker 3: amount of time because like I mean, we can all 640 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,280 Speaker 3: be honest like there was it was a frustrating season 641 00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:10,920 Speaker 3: shots because and you can just tell you guys hadn't 642 00:29:10,920 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 3: played together for sure. 643 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,240 Speaker 4: The amount of time probably is good for you. 644 00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:15,800 Speaker 15: Right, great, Great, And that allows us to kind of 645 00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:18,640 Speaker 15: not really be in front of coaches, not really be 646 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 15: in front of media and all of this.

As long as you don't 706 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:01,560 Speaker 15: turn over the ball, you are allow us to make 707 00:32:01,600 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 15: those plays and to you know, catch the ball in 708 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:05,040 Speaker 15: space and to. 709 00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:05,640 Speaker 13: Go to work. 710 00:32:05,960 --> 00:32:08,320 Speaker 15: Then we're gonna win the game majority of the time. 711 00:32:08,400 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 15: And I felt like that was the main, the main 712 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 15: objective last year when we had him, and of course 713 00:32:13,800 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 15: watching him this year, I feel like it's the same 714 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:17,640 Speaker 15: type of ordeal. 715 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 13: You know, he has a top tier guys. 716 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 15: Around him in that offense, has a great offensive line, 717 00:32:22,600 --> 00:32:24,960 Speaker 15: has a great offensive coordinator to. 718 00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 13: Really put him in different positions to win. 719 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,479 Speaker 15: It's just all about him going out there, taking control 720 00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:32,080 Speaker 15: of the ball, not giving the ball to the other team. 721 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:33,480 Speaker 13: Then they're going to mostly win. 722 00:32:33,520 --> 00:32:35,959 Speaker 15: And I feel like that's what's been the makeup of 723 00:32:36,040 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 15: this whole entire season. 724 00:32:37,360 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: I saw at this Roger Goodell press conference this week 725 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: that he said that he's heard from a lot of 726 00:32:43,240 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 1: players that they like playing overseas because they like being 727 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:51,160 Speaker 1: ambassadors to the NFL and I saw some players reacting 728 00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 1: to that, but I thought, since we got you, you 729 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: were there for two weeks, Yeah, what are your thoughts 730 00:32:56,680 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: because you were on a little road trip there, and 731 00:32:58,680 --> 00:32:59,840 Speaker 1: definitely a road trip. 732 00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:00,920 Speaker 13: What was that like? 733 00:33:01,400 --> 00:33:04,280 Speaker 15: It was different, I would say, I mean, obviously we're 734 00:33:04,320 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 15: not during the season. You're not really prepared. I would say, 735 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 15: to be there for ten days, to be in one 736 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:15,719 Speaker 15: to be in one country and having to fly to another. 737 00:33:16,400 --> 00:33:19,480 Speaker 15: I did the same and I wasn't prepared. Now it's different, 738 00:33:19,520 --> 00:33:21,040 Speaker 15: and you know, of course we got to prepare for 739 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:24,680 Speaker 15: a game. Of course, you know, our sleep routine is different, 740 00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,920 Speaker 15: diet is different. They have different food over there, so 741 00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 15: everything is a little bit different. So you're just trying 742 00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 15: to do as much as possible to feel as normal 743 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:38,120 Speaker 15: as possible when it's game time. But obviously it never 744 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,240 Speaker 15: will feel normal. But I do enjoy being in a 745 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:45,400 Speaker 15: different environment, playing for a different fan base. I mean, 746 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:48,440 Speaker 15: probably ninety percent of those fans never seen me play, 747 00:33:49,080 --> 00:33:52,800 Speaker 15: and of course I played with three times now in London, 748 00:33:53,440 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 15: so the fan bases continue to grow, but there's always 749 00:33:57,240 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 15: going to be fans there that never experience you or 750 00:33:59,760 --> 00:34:02,040 Speaker 15: see and you play this game of football. 751 00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:04,320 Speaker 13: So that's the exciting part about it. 752 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:06,240 Speaker 3: Obviously it's a regular season game, but didn't feel like 753 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 3: it took on more importance because of what you just described. 754 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,920 Speaker 15: Yeah, of course, you know it's a first of all 755 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,920 Speaker 15: eight to nine hour trip and then of course you 756 00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,600 Speaker 15: got to get on another plane to fly to another country. 757 00:34:17,960 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 13: Uh So it was it was a it was a difference. 758 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:21,399 Speaker 13: You know, I was. 759 00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: Behind you guys and security going from Dublin to London. 760 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 1: I was like, I didn't know they were just going 761 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: to be among the common folks like us. 762 00:34:30,840 --> 00:34:31,520 Speaker 8: They were just there. 763 00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:32,880 Speaker 1: I think it was I think it was your guy, 764 00:34:33,000 --> 00:34:34,040 Speaker 1: Jalen Taylor was right. 765 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,359 Speaker 15: And for you know, we didn't have a big enough PJ, 766 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,600 Speaker 15: you know to fly to fly over the owners didn't 767 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 15: have a big enough PJ, so we had to fly commercial. 768 00:34:42,239 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 15: But uh, I mean it was a great experience.

And one of the big things in that 989 00:43:39,040 --> 00:43:42,319 Speaker 16: offense is making mic points, and so every every time 990 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:43,680 Speaker 16: you get up to the line of scrimmage, you have 991 00:43:43,719 --> 00:43:45,359 Speaker 16: to make a mic point to tell the line where 992 00:43:45,400 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 16: to go, which really you're directing all the traffic right, 993 00:43:48,640 --> 00:43:50,520 Speaker 16: and Drake's done a good job of that this year. 994 00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:52,279 Speaker 16: When I watch tape, like it's tough, you have a 995 00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,759 Speaker 16: lot on your plate before the map even starts. And 996 00:43:54,880 --> 00:43:57,320 Speaker 16: with Kyle, one of his big things is the opposite, 997 00:43:57,440 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 16: like it's more you know what your issues are, but 998 00:43:59,560 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 16: you're not really going to change anything. You're kind of 999 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:02,920 Speaker 16: just gonna go out there and play. And for me, 1000 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,279 Speaker 16: and as a guy who's playing in the system where 1001 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:07,200 Speaker 16: I could change everything in my whole career pretty much, 1002 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:09,160 Speaker 16: it was different and I really liked it because I 1003 00:44:09,200 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 16: knew what my issues were, but I also had a 1004 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,280 Speaker 16: system and it was just a lot less on my plate. 1005 00:44:14,600 --> 00:44:16,719 Speaker 7: I feel like the thing that's often getting lost in 1006 00:44:16,760 --> 00:44:19,880 Speaker 7: this conversation too is those coaches and Josh McDaniel's is 1007 00:44:19,920 --> 00:44:23,240 Speaker 7: also excellent at this part of why his system still 1008 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:26,799 Speaker 7: carries and it does. But in terms of that coaching tree, 1009 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,279 Speaker 7: that family quote unquote, yeah, what I think a lot 1010 00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 7: of people miss in this is that they understand defensive rules, 1011 00:44:33,239 --> 00:44:36,400 Speaker 7: especially in zoning defenses, so well that that is why 1012 00:44:36,480 --> 00:44:39,760 Speaker 7: they are able to give you progression based passing rules 1013 00:44:39,800 --> 00:44:42,080 Speaker 7: because they're breaking the defense's rules. 1014 00:44:42,160 --> 00:44:45,160 Speaker 6: For sure, they're giving you can maybe expand. 1015 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 11: A little bit more of yeah, for sure. 1016 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:48,160 Speaker 16: I mean Josh taught me so much about that too, 1017 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:50,680 Speaker 16: and when he was when we were together in New England. 1018 00:44:50,880 --> 00:44:52,320 Speaker 16: That was the first thing we did was learned defense. 1019 00:44:52,360 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 16: So that helped me throughout my career and I'm thankful 1020 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,760 Speaker 16: for that. But with Kyle, it's the same thing. It's 1021 00:44:56,960 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 16: he literally knows exactly what they're doing. It's just a 1022 00:44:58,840 --> 00:45:01,520 Speaker 16: matter of, like you said, if one is open, you're 1023 00:45:01,560 --> 00:45:04,000 Speaker 16: throwing one. Like there is no they can play cover two, 1024 00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:06,239 Speaker 16: they can play blitz zero. Like if a number one 1025 00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 16: is open, I'm throwing it. And in my career sometimes 1026 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:10,560 Speaker 16: you might be overthinking that, like, well, is he really 1027 00:45:10,600 --> 00:45:12,400 Speaker 16: going to be open versus coverage or you know what 1028 00:45:12,400 --> 00:45:14,840 Speaker 16: I'm saying. Yeah, So I'm very like blessed to be 1029 00:45:14,840 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 16: in the system this year because it allowed me just 1030 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:18,840 Speaker 16: to be that all right, one is there, I'm throwing it. 1031 00:45:18,840 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 11: If he's not, I'm moving on. 1032 00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 1: You sound like you like like being in that system. Yeah, 1033 00:45:24,440 --> 00:45:27,719 Speaker 1: you're gonna be talked about on shows like this. We've 1034 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:28,799 Speaker 1: already talked about it. 1035 00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:30,399 Speaker 11: Good things I'm talking about. 1036 00:45:31,920 --> 00:45:34,640 Speaker 1: I'm talking about lists of possible teams who might be 1037 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 1: looking for quarterbacks this offseason. Obviously you're under contract, or 1038 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 1: maybe it's not obviously, but the listeners should know you're 1039 00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 1: under contract next year. Yeah, with the forty nine ers 1040 00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 1: as their backup, I'm sure they value that really highly. 1041 00:45:47,400 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 1: If other teams do come calling and aggressively like want 1042 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:55,760 Speaker 1: to get you, do you welcome a trade? 1043 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:57,680 Speaker 16: Yeah, I think it's It's always a blessing to have 1044 00:45:57,719 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 16: people discussing those things. And for me, I did sign 1045 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:03,360 Speaker 16: a two year deal, and I really love working with Kyle, 1046 00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 16: so I kind of know where I'm at with it, 1047 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:07,399 Speaker 16: and they've we've had good conversations, and I feel good 1048 00:46:07,400 --> 00:46:09,800 Speaker 16: about where I'm at. So I understand it's a business 1049 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 16: and there's things that happen, but I think when you 1050 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:13,680 Speaker 16: turn on the tape, like the proof is in the pudding. 1051 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:15,319 Speaker 11: So all I want to do is play good. 1052 00:46:15,239 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 16: Football, and whether that's a backup or a starter, to me, 1053 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 16: like that's the whole point is to play good, So 1054 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 16: don't worry about all the external stuff. 1055 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,160 Speaker 7: It's refreshing and I think we all know when we 1056 00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:26,439 Speaker 7: see it, when you play that, you know you could start, Yeah, 1057 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:29,560 Speaker 7: of course, But like there's something to be said for 1058 00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:33,000 Speaker 7: being happy too, Like I feel like that's missed a lot. 1059 00:46:33,960 --> 00:46:35,240 Speaker 11: I think both can be possible. 1060 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:37,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, the show both. 1061 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:41,319 Speaker 7: Things are true time but like that's that's I mean 1062 00:46:41,440 --> 00:46:44,880 Speaker 7: the strain of kind of the early years and figuring 1063 00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:47,160 Speaker 7: out what this league was all about and then coming 1064 00:46:47,200 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 7: to something different similar in a lot of ways, but different, 1065 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:53,200 Speaker 7: and then seeing the more of the world open up 1066 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:53,440 Speaker 7: to you. 1067 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:54,560 Speaker 6: What's that been? 1068 00:46:54,600 --> 00:46:54,680 Speaker 3: Like? 1069 00:46:55,080 --> 00:46:57,080 Speaker 11: Good? I think when you get you know, as a rookie. 1070 00:46:57,280 --> 00:46:59,759 Speaker 16: I was thrown in there and starting right away, which 1071 00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:01,320 Speaker 16: is all for me, and we went to the playoffs 1072 00:47:01,360 --> 00:47:04,320 Speaker 16: and then had a lot of success, so that was amazing, 1073 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:06,200 Speaker 16: and I wanted to keep doing that and stacking and 1074 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 16: being a backup now and having started a lot of 1075 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 16: games too, like it's good to just get both perspectives. 1076 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:12,920 Speaker 16: And I've done it and I've gone through a whole season. 1077 00:47:13,160 --> 00:47:15,760 Speaker 16: I've played half seasons. I've played in a quarter season. 1078 00:47:15,840 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 16: So it's just like every year is new for me, 1079 00:47:17,920 --> 00:47:19,520 Speaker 16: and I just love the challenge, but I know what 1080 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,080 Speaker 16: I would be getting myself into like this year. That's 1081 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:23,359 Speaker 16: why I feel like I was just like, all right, well, 1082 00:47:23,360 --> 00:47:25,160 Speaker 16: here we go. I'm starting. I know I'm gonna have 1083 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,160 Speaker 16: a couple of games here. And I've done this, you know, 1084 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 16: sixty times or whatever, and like it's not my first 1085 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:30,399 Speaker 16: rodeo so. 1086 00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:32,919 Speaker 1: I got in trouble on the old podcast. They thought 1087 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:34,800 Speaker 1: it was like the hottest take ever that I remember. 1088 00:47:34,800 --> 00:47:36,720 Speaker 1: I said, I would not trade you for Russell Wilson 1089 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,360 Speaker 1: straight up. This was like twenty twenty, which was like 1090 00:47:39,400 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 1: a little bit of more of a hot take. I 1091 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 1: think history has proven me right. So Sam Darnold kind 1092 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 1: of you know, he went to San Francisco, he was 1093 00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:51,440 Speaker 1: a backup here. Yeah, he's showing you one route where 1094 00:47:51,440 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 1: it can it can really work out. And sure he 1095 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:57,520 Speaker 1: kind of and he stayed sort of in this similar system. 1096 00:47:57,680 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 1: And this is a team that beat you twice. Yeah, 1097 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:03,200 Speaker 1: going up against the Patriots who don't have a lot 1098 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:05,440 Speaker 1: of those players from back when you were there, but 1099 00:48:05,440 --> 00:48:08,080 Speaker 1: they have a few. Yeah, definitely they have some mc 1100 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:11,279 Speaker 1: daniels of course for sure. So it makes me like, think, 1101 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:12,080 Speaker 1: who are you rooting for? 1102 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 16: I knew this one was coming, how many a decent amount. 1103 00:48:17,080 --> 00:48:18,759 Speaker 16: I haven't really put too much thought into it. I 1104 00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:21,000 Speaker 16: think it is like when it's your division rival and 1105 00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:22,920 Speaker 16: former team. I do have friends on the team, Like 1106 00:48:23,040 --> 00:48:25,680 Speaker 16: I literally just saw Mare Stevenson yesterday at dinner, so 1107 00:48:25,760 --> 00:48:28,040 Speaker 16: like just and we always text throughout the year. So 1108 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:31,040 Speaker 16: I love those guys Hunter, Henry, guys that I played with, 1109 00:48:31,080 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 16: and I really want them to do well. 1110 00:48:32,640 --> 00:48:34,759 Speaker 11: So I don't know, I don't have too much of 1111 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:36,280 Speaker 11: an opinion. I'm not going to pick a team. 1112 00:48:36,120 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 6: But yeah, you have people for the show I pick either. 1113 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,480 Speaker 11: Yeah, but I love like Josh and there's people like 1114 00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:42,279 Speaker 11: the videos. 1115 00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:44,919 Speaker 1: To be happy for people that you're close with doing well. 1116 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 1: On the other hand, there's probably a lot of massholes. 1117 00:48:47,160 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: You don't want to see them get happy. 1118 00:48:49,200 --> 00:48:50,920 Speaker 16: No, I mean if they win it, good for them, 1119 00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:52,040 Speaker 16: and that's that's awesome. 1120 00:48:52,960 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 7: Before we let you go, we're so appreciative of your time.

Like there's 1302 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:16,359 Speaker 4: a lot of game left. 1303 00:56:16,400 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 17: I mean you see in the NFL like this year, 1304 00:56:18,200 --> 00:56:20,520 Speaker 17: like it's been crazy where teams have been down or 1305 00:56:20,640 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 17: you know, maybe as a quarterback, you haven't been playing 1306 00:56:22,360 --> 00:56:24,200 Speaker 17: for a good half of football. But in that second 1307 00:56:24,239 --> 00:56:27,520 Speaker 17: half of football, somebody plays amazing and the game turns around. 1308 00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:29,640 Speaker 17: So there's a lot of football to be played. And 1309 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 17: I think that when you go out there, you just 1310 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,000 Speaker 17: have to play fearless. And I think that I had 1311 00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 17: a great like a great group of guys around me 1312 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:41,120 Speaker 17: who you know, we're okay and kind of instilled my 1313 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:42,759 Speaker 17: play style to play the way that I play. 1314 00:56:42,800 --> 00:56:44,839 Speaker 4: And I think that we all just played hard. 1315 00:56:45,120 --> 00:56:49,160 Speaker 1: Look, there was a lot of great performances. You know, 1316 00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,120 Speaker 1: you come out early, you get wins against the Chargers, 1317 00:56:52,360 --> 00:56:56,720 Speaker 1: playoff team, Eagles, you put up thirty points in Denver, 1318 00:56:56,920 --> 00:56:59,800 Speaker 1: like so close with a lot of great teams. Bears 1319 00:57:00,080 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 1: were another one, and you had ups and you had 1320 00:57:03,280 --> 00:57:05,960 Speaker 1: downs in the season. I think you finished strong. You're 1321 00:57:06,040 --> 00:57:08,280 Speaker 1: up for this, you know, Rookie of the Year nominee. 1322 00:57:08,280 --> 00:57:10,799 Speaker 1: And I kind of thought, like, because you came out 1323 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 1: so hot, it almost like people forgot. Have you considered 1324 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:18,920 Speaker 1: doing some negative campaigning against Tyler Shuck that like maybe 1325 00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:21,280 Speaker 1: Shuck is getting a little too too much pop and 1326 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:22,600 Speaker 1: didn't even play the whole season. 1327 00:57:23,240 --> 00:57:25,480 Speaker 17: Well, first of all, shout out to PEPSI zero sugar, 1328 00:57:25,600 --> 00:57:27,320 Speaker 17: I think, just what a cool opportunity for all of 1329 00:57:27,360 --> 00:57:29,840 Speaker 17: us to come together and to be a part of this. 1330 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:34,680 Speaker 17: To be honest, like, no, I haven't done zero, Like 1331 00:57:35,000 --> 00:57:37,480 Speaker 17: I mean, the biggest thing to me that matters is 1332 00:57:37,480 --> 00:57:40,000 Speaker 17: is one day hoping up you know, hopefully more than 1333 00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:42,960 Speaker 17: one Super Bowl trophy. And you know that's in my 1334 00:57:43,080 --> 00:57:48,280 Speaker 17: mind from a standpoint of like whatever happens, like it is, 1335 00:57:48,320 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 17: it is what it is. Like I feel like, you know, 1336 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:51,680 Speaker 17: I was able to put out a really good product 1337 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,200 Speaker 17: on display, like you can just look at the numbers, 1338 00:57:54,400 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 17: and I think that that really speaks for itself. So 1339 00:57:57,200 --> 00:57:59,560 Speaker 17: obviously the most important thing is is continued to find 1340 00:57:59,560 --> 00:58:01,480 Speaker 17: ways to win. And I know that we're gonna do 1341 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:02,960 Speaker 17: that in the future, but you know that's that's really 1342 00:58:03,000 --> 00:58:03,840 Speaker 17: the most important thing to me. 1343 00:58:04,000 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 6: Is there a moment this year? 1344 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:07,200 Speaker 7: It could be it could have been a play, And 1345 00:58:07,240 --> 00:58:08,959 Speaker 7: certainly I think of a lot of the ones where 1346 00:58:09,000 --> 00:58:12,120 Speaker 7: you are working at a structure, you're you're creating, crazy 1347 00:58:12,160 --> 00:58:14,080 Speaker 7: things are happening all around you, and you're sort of 1348 00:58:14,120 --> 00:58:17,880 Speaker 7: willing things to happen for your offense. But is there 1349 00:58:17,920 --> 00:58:20,840 Speaker 7: a play that or even a moment like behind the 1350 00:58:20,840 --> 00:58:22,880 Speaker 7: scenes that maybe we would not have seen. 1351 00:58:22,880 --> 00:58:25,400 Speaker 6: Where you're like, holy crap, man, I'm in the NFL 1352 00:58:25,520 --> 00:58:25,880 Speaker 6: right now. 1353 00:58:26,200 --> 00:58:27,320 Speaker 4: Oh jeez. 1354 00:58:27,360 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 17: I feel like there's there's a few of the Yeah, 1355 00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 17: there's times where I'm I'm going there on the field 1356 00:58:32,440 --> 00:58:34,920 Speaker 17: and I'm looking at guys and I'm like, dang, like 1357 00:58:35,040 --> 00:58:37,120 Speaker 17: you did really good for my fantasy team, like four 1358 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:38,040 Speaker 17: years ago when I. 1359 00:58:37,960 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 1: Was when I was younger, and this would be you. 1360 00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:43,760 Speaker 17: Just like, being being involved in this game and competing 1361 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:46,160 Speaker 17: at the highest level is such an honor and being 1362 00:58:46,200 --> 00:58:48,240 Speaker 17: around like these great players is so cool.

Okay, all year people wanted style points, 1760 01:15:08,040 --> 01:15:09,840 Speaker 18: but then when it came down to the playoffs, they 1761 01:15:09,840 --> 01:15:10,800 Speaker 18: wouldn't have cared if we. 1762 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,439 Speaker 8: Had a bad game and still won that game in 1763 01:15:13,439 --> 01:15:13,800 Speaker 8: the end. 1764 01:15:14,200 --> 01:15:16,360 Speaker 18: And you know, if we had that all the way 1765 01:15:16,360 --> 01:15:18,240 Speaker 18: going to the Super Bowl and won it all doing 1766 01:15:18,280 --> 01:15:21,679 Speaker 18: it like that, then I think that we can always 1767 01:15:21,720 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 18: result back to say, hey, hey, Philly, we did it 1768 01:15:24,320 --> 01:15:26,640 Speaker 18: like this and y'allways complaining and we still won. So 1769 01:15:27,120 --> 01:15:28,680 Speaker 18: what y'all got to cry about? Now, you know what 1770 01:15:28,720 --> 01:15:30,920 Speaker 18: I'm saying. So it's it's always gonna be something to 1771 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:34,200 Speaker 18: talk about and cry about. But as a leader of 1772 01:15:34,240 --> 01:15:36,760 Speaker 18: the team, you gotta block it out because when it 1773 01:15:36,800 --> 01:15:38,640 Speaker 18: comes down to it, if we would have won that 1774 01:15:38,680 --> 01:15:40,559 Speaker 18: game and the forty nine ers after all the stuff 1775 01:15:40,600 --> 01:15:43,320 Speaker 18: that happened with the offensive stuff, and we'd have won, 1776 01:15:43,800 --> 01:15:45,439 Speaker 18: they wouldn't have worried about it, and we'd have been 1777 01:15:45,479 --> 01:15:46,280 Speaker 18: in the super Bowl. 1778 01:15:46,560 --> 01:15:49,160 Speaker 8: With the coordinator, I mean. 1779 01:15:48,640 --> 01:15:50,000 Speaker 1: You would have to be a couple of good team 1780 01:15:50,040 --> 01:15:50,479 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. 1781 01:15:50,360 --> 01:15:52,120 Speaker 8: We had some good ones though, don't get me wrong. 1782 01:15:52,160 --> 01:15:54,960 Speaker 18: But the defensive side, we were trying to put that 1783 01:15:55,000 --> 01:15:57,599 Speaker 18: on our back for this year. But man, it don't matter. 1784 01:15:57,640 --> 01:15:59,880 Speaker 18: The style, points don't matter in the playoffs. It's just 1785 01:15:59,880 --> 01:16:00,519 Speaker 18: a winning it. 1786 01:16:01,960 --> 01:16:02,839 Speaker 6: I love this defense. 1787 01:16:03,520 --> 01:16:06,759 Speaker 19: I could go on, like the toughness of playing in Philly. 1788 01:16:06,800 --> 01:16:10,160 Speaker 19: Thing is the thing that that I don't think is understood, 1789 01:16:10,320 --> 01:16:12,720 Speaker 19: is that, yes, the city is very difficult to. 1790 01:16:12,680 --> 01:16:14,599 Speaker 5: Play in and they will reward you if you play well. 1791 01:16:15,200 --> 01:16:16,720 Speaker 19: But if you talk to people around the league who 1792 01:16:16,720 --> 01:16:18,880 Speaker 19: have been in that building and then left or have 1793 01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:21,880 Speaker 19: what they've heard of it, it is also intense scrutiny 1794 01:16:22,000 --> 01:16:24,880 Speaker 19: in the building from the top down. And that is 1795 01:16:24,880 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 19: something that is is not the same everywhere else, and 1796 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:29,280 Speaker 19: it's part of what's made them great, but it is 1797 01:16:29,320 --> 01:16:32,439 Speaker 19: it is not always the most joyous place to work, yes, 1798 01:16:32,600 --> 01:16:33,240 Speaker 19: get answer. 1799 01:16:33,520 --> 01:16:35,920 Speaker 8: Not not not as far as like players. 1800 01:16:35,960 --> 01:16:39,320 Speaker 1: But I'm talking about the upstairs front office. 1801 01:16:39,120 --> 01:16:42,360 Speaker 18: Because they do have a high standard of of how 1802 01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:45,240 Speaker 18: they do things. And I mean which I understand some 1803 01:16:45,280 --> 01:16:47,479 Speaker 18: stuff you might have to learn and kind of back 1804 01:16:47,520 --> 01:16:50,000 Speaker 18: off a little bit. But but you how I look 1805 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:52,439 Speaker 18: at it too, It's like you want to make sure 1806 01:16:52,479 --> 01:16:54,799 Speaker 18: that you just focus when you're supposed to be focused, 1807 01:16:55,040 --> 01:16:57,000 Speaker 18: and I want to have fun when I can have fun. 1808 01:16:57,200 --> 01:16:59,200 Speaker 8: It's like I'm not trying to be serious the whole time. 1809 01:16:59,439 --> 01:17:01,920 Speaker 18: It's like I I love my little moments were I 1810 01:17:01,920 --> 01:17:05,800 Speaker 18: can make a coach laugh in the serious situation and 1811 01:17:05,840 --> 01:17:08,559 Speaker 18: it's like, all right, coach, if this happened again, say 1812 01:17:08,560 --> 01:17:10,960 Speaker 18: what say we? He goes off on us on the sideline, 1813 01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:12,479 Speaker 18: and then we talk about it in the meeting. 1814 01:17:12,640 --> 01:17:13,639 Speaker 8: Even though we won the game. 1815 01:17:13,840 --> 01:17:16,760 Speaker 18: It's like, coach, trust us, because it's about trust too, 1816 01:17:16,800 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 18: because when people yelling at you sometimes it's like you 1817 01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:21,960 Speaker 18: trust me? Do you trust what we said? It's like 1818 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:24,120 Speaker 18: we said that we was gonna be in a dogfight. 1819 01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:26,840 Speaker 18: I made a mistake, but don't don't condemn me for it. 1820 01:17:26,840 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 18: We're still in the fight. Let's let's keep working and 1821 01:17:29,240 --> 01:17:31,080 Speaker 18: we'll figure it out later. And then you find out 1822 01:17:31,479 --> 01:17:34,360 Speaker 18: that what you thought happened in the game didn't happen 1823 01:17:34,400 --> 01:17:36,960 Speaker 18: so bad because maybe you wasn't listening and I was 1824 01:17:36,960 --> 01:17:38,880 Speaker 18: trying to tell you. But you don't want to be 1825 01:17:38,960 --> 01:17:42,160 Speaker 18: You don't want to stay as hostile. So one person 1826 01:17:42,280 --> 01:17:44,320 Speaker 18: might take the fall and be like, you know what, coach, 1827 01:17:44,360 --> 01:17:45,719 Speaker 18: you right, I'll just take. 1828 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:48,160 Speaker 8: It right now. But then later on you'd be like, dang, coach, 1829 01:17:48,200 --> 01:17:48,679 Speaker 8: you was wrong. 1830 01:17:48,720 --> 01:17:50,080 Speaker 18: So you got to be able to You got to 1831 01:17:50,080 --> 01:17:52,599 Speaker 18: be able to own own it too, because you can't 1832 01:17:52,640 --> 01:17:55,120 Speaker 18: just be throwing that stuff. You gotta have accountability in 1833 01:17:55,160 --> 01:17:57,120 Speaker 18: this because and then you got to be a little 1834 01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:59,680 Speaker 18: season in it too, because it's been moments were I 1835 01:17:59,680 --> 01:18:01,320 Speaker 18: had to take it, even though I knew I was right, 1836 01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:03,599 Speaker 18: I just say, you know what, coach, I'll let you. 1837 01:18:03,680 --> 01:18:05,200 Speaker 8: I'll let you have your mama right now. 1838 01:18:05,120 --> 01:18:07,479 Speaker 18: All right, And then when you look back on it, 1839 01:18:08,000 --> 01:18:11,360 Speaker 18: I don't say nothing. But unless coach don't, unless coach 1840 01:18:11,439 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 18: just don't acknowledge it, then I'm like, coach, let's get 1841 01:18:14,120 --> 01:18:15,519 Speaker 18: back on what happened on the field. 1842 01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:19,519 Speaker 8: Hey, talk to me.

Listen, I'm telling you. 1847 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,040 Speaker 18: As hard as that is, sometimes it ain't about winning 1848 01:18:37,040 --> 01:18:39,679 Speaker 18: the winning it it's about Look, it's a problem right here. 1849 01:18:39,880 --> 01:18:41,680 Speaker 18: Me and you got to figure this thing out, to 1850 01:18:41,720 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 18: attack this problem together. But sometimes people think it's a 1851 01:18:44,479 --> 01:18:47,639 Speaker 18: problem between me and you and eight even in marriage, wife, 1852 01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:49,360 Speaker 18: this is a problem right here that we just need 1853 01:18:49,400 --> 01:18:49,920 Speaker 18: to figure out. 1854 01:18:50,320 --> 01:18:50,920 Speaker 8: I love you. 1855 01:18:51,120 --> 01:18:52,720 Speaker 18: I know you got to work on some things just 1856 01:18:52,720 --> 01:18:56,439 Speaker 18: like I do. And it's like you know all that stuff, 1857 01:18:56,680 --> 01:18:59,400 Speaker 18: but it's it's really communication because a lot of a 1858 01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:01,799 Speaker 18: lot of times when you see stuff on the sidelines, 1859 01:19:01,840 --> 01:19:05,040 Speaker 18: because people have miscommunication or or built up feelings that 1860 01:19:05,080 --> 01:19:08,160 Speaker 18: they needed to have a man a man talking sometimes 1861 01:19:08,160 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 18: and you don't always get that in a work relationship, 1862 01:19:11,200 --> 01:19:14,160 Speaker 18: but in football you should have that more than not. 1863 01:19:14,520 --> 01:19:17,920 Speaker 18: But a lot of people sometimes run from those those hard, 1864 01:19:18,120 --> 01:19:20,439 Speaker 18: hard moments because it ain't always easy to kind of 1865 01:19:20,479 --> 01:19:23,640 Speaker 18: tell someone man, you're wrong, you know, and didn't take 1866 01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:25,519 Speaker 18: accountability to know that you're wrong. 1867 01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:30,360 Speaker 1: Life Lessons with Brandon Braham that We've got a guest 1868 01:19:30,439 --> 01:19:32,880 Speaker 1: coming up, So I'll leave you with this.

Brandon, you said, 1872 01:19:42,920 --> 01:19:45,519 Speaker 1: if how he made a splash with the coordinator, I 1873 01:19:45,520 --> 01:19:49,240 Speaker 1: think it'll spark some interest with people wanting to come back. 1874 01:19:49,479 --> 01:19:53,280 Speaker 1: So I ask you, is Sean Mannion a splash with 1875 01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:54,440 Speaker 1: the higher at coordinator? 1876 01:19:54,600 --> 01:19:59,360 Speaker 18: I would say yes, because from what people have told me, 1877 01:19:59,520 --> 01:20:02,439 Speaker 18: even people letting the organization that knows him say, man, 1878 01:20:02,520 --> 01:20:06,120 Speaker 18: he is great. Y'all don't even know just the relationships 1879 01:20:06,200 --> 01:20:08,679 Speaker 18: he has already and how he tries to really build 1880 01:20:08,680 --> 01:20:12,559 Speaker 18: those relationships. And I'm loving that. It's gonna start from 1881 01:20:12,600 --> 01:20:14,880 Speaker 18: the ground up and he's all about that. And so 1882 01:20:15,040 --> 01:20:17,000 Speaker 18: with him and Jay, I'm sure they've been on the phone, 1883 01:20:17,080 --> 01:20:19,439 Speaker 18: been talking how you want, how you how you how 1884 01:20:19,479 --> 01:20:22,240 Speaker 18: you envision us looking this year, and then we just 1885 01:20:22,240 --> 01:20:24,639 Speaker 18: go from there.
