1
00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:03,559
Speaker 1: Is there opportunity? The National Football League is the land

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:06,120
Speaker 1: of opportunity for the Chiefs. They go into Week three

3
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:08,960
Speaker 1: to try to do something that's never been done in

4
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:14,120
Speaker 1: the history of the franchise, and that spanned sixty six seasons.

5
00:00:14,600 --> 00:00:17,880
Speaker 1: This defending the Kingdom is entitled what Opportunity? And it's

6
00:00:17,920 --> 00:00:21,479
Speaker 1: brought to you, as always by Ticketmaster, your friend throughout

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 1: the season.

8
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:24,880
Speaker 2: Holmes looking left all the way now moves to the right.

9
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,520
Speaker 3: Ten five loops, turning for the new friend.

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: Piline touchdown Chansas City hoveryone. I'm Mitchelta's voice of the

11
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:36,280
Speaker 1: Chiefs along with senior team reporter Matt McMullen, and you're thinking,

12
00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,520
Speaker 1: what opportunity. It's the Chiefs against the Giants, Week three,

13
00:00:39,960 --> 00:00:42,360
Speaker 1: Sunday Night Football. And I had to look at this

14
00:00:42,560 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: and look at this and look at this. But I

15
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,760
Speaker 1: mentioned it last early in the week on The Chiefs

16
00:00:46,840 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: Kingdom Show with Patrick Mahomes. The Kansas City Chiefs have

17
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: never beaten the Giants on the road, the only team

18
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have never beaten on the road in the

19
00:00:57,720 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: history of this franchise.

20
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 2: That's an opportunity.

21
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 3: How is that possible?

22
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:02,200
Speaker 2: I don't know.

23
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 3: How many times have we played them there?

24
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: Seven times?

25
00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,559
Speaker 1: Lost every time, oh for seven, and it hasn't been

26
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:09,760
Speaker 1: really kind of pretty. So when I mentioned it to

27
00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,480
Speaker 1: Pat who's on the show, he goes, hmm, and he

28
00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:14,319
Speaker 1: starts to think, and he goes, I trust you, man,

29
00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: I'll trust you doing. I go, well, I looked at

30
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,080
Speaker 1: it like ten times. But he goes, I remember in

31
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:21,880
Speaker 1: seventeen that was his red shirt year. Yeah, and the honestly,

32
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 1: the Giants were down four receivers. They were down four receives,

33
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: their top four guys were inactive, and they still win

34
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,119
Speaker 1: the game in overtime like sixteen to nine.

35
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 3: It was crazy, Yeah, because that was the game that

36
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 3: Kelscott picked off through the deep pass. That was a

37
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,880
Speaker 3: weird game. That was a weird stretch for us, which

38
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:40,800
Speaker 3: actually is kind of applicable to what we're going through

39
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 3: right now in a few ways.

40
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,720
Speaker 1: Well, and it's a great point because you and I

41
00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: have talked about this, and I mentioned it publicly on

42
00:01:48,160 --> 00:01:51,360
Speaker 1: different shows I was on. But the fact that every

43
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: year there has been a flashpoint. Now, sometimes they come

44
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year twenty fourteen oh one,

45
00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 1: two two guys go injured, DJ and Mike DeVito go

46
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 1: down within forty seconds. Sometimes it happens in the middle

47
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,920
Speaker 1: of the year. How about twenty nineteen, You can go

48
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 1: back to twenty seventeen. What about twenty twenty three being

49
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: nine and six, going into the cut last couple of

50
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 1: weeks and end up winning the Super Bowl.

51
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,639
Speaker 2: Every year there are flash.

52
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,560
Speaker 1: Points, usually a big one, and now this year it's

53
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:20,720
Speaker 1: at the beginning of the season.

54
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:23,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, and reminds me so much of twenty twenty one.

55
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,840
Speaker 3: It seems like like nationally when people are talking about

56
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,240
Speaker 3: the Chiefs, they've completely forgotten the twenty twenty one season happened.

57
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,799
Speaker 2: We were three and four, three and four.

58
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 3: We started one and two, ended up being three and four.

59
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 3: We didn't get over five hundred until week nine. In

60
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,600
Speaker 3: twenty twenty one, well, no one talks about it because

61
00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 3: how did that season end? We won twelve games and

62
00:02:42,840 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 3: hosted the AFC Championship Game and it went to overtime.

63
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 3: We were two quarters away from the Super Bowl. So

64
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,000
Speaker 3: the Chiefs have dealt with this kind of thing before.

65
00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:53,600
Speaker 3: It's not fun. I mean, I much prefer to get

66
00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:56,320
Speaker 3: off to a roaring start and start nine to zero

67
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 3: and don't have to worry about this kind of situation.

68
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 3: But reality is, we've had some injuries, we have some circumstances,

69
00:03:03,480 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 3: and we've played two really good teams to open the

70
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 3: season and we lost by what a combined nine points.

71
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,080
Speaker 3: So it's tough. This just happens sometimes, So how do

72
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 3: you respond to it? And that's one thing that Patrick

73
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:16,840
Speaker 3: Mahomess kept saying, You're not defined by moments like this,

74
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 3: You're defined by how you respond to him. Well, moving forward,

75
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:21,800
Speaker 3: you got to get back on track. And there's the

76
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 3: good news is here that we've seen in recent memory,

77
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 3: beyond even our own experience, teams go through this kind

78
00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 3: of thing and rebound quite well. I mean, look at

79
00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 3: last year. The Broncos start oh to two, they make

80
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:34,160
Speaker 3: the playoffs. The Rams started oh and two, they made

81
00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,360
Speaker 3: the playoffs. The Ravens lost to the Raiders at home

82
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 3: in Week two last year, and they end up being

83
00:03:40,080 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 3: right there with the Bills at the very end of

84
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:44,680
Speaker 3: that incredible divisional playoff game. So it's not about how

85
00:03:44,720 --> 00:03:46,840
Speaker 3: you start sometimes, like of course you want to start

86
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 3: to and oh, you don't want to start oh and two.

87
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 3: But there are plenty of examples around the NFL and

88
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,160
Speaker 3: in our own history. That show it's not about how

89
00:03:54,200 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 3: you start, it's how do you respond to it, And

90
00:03:55,960 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 3: that begins this week against the Giants.

91
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: And that's why there are opportunities all over the place,

92
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: not only in this episode but on Sunday Night Football

93
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,400
Speaker 1: against the Giants. Now, ironically, the Giants have started oh

94
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: and two. They're oh and two twenty seven times in

95
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: their history. Dyate saw the way back to the beginning

96
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,280
Speaker 1: of the NFL. They've only made the playoffs one time.

97
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: They won the Super Bowl oh seven, right seven, Yeah,

98
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,960
Speaker 1: and they beat the undefeated New England Patriots that year

99
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:24,680
Speaker 1: with Steve Spagnolo diagramming a great defense. But it just

100
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,840
Speaker 1: shows you oh and two doesn't mean the end.

101
00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:27,160
Speaker 2: Of the earth.

102
00:04:27,400 --> 00:04:29,480
Speaker 3: And also the ninety three Cowboys were oh and two

103
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:32,840
Speaker 3: won the Super Bowl and the one Patriots were and

104
00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,039
Speaker 3: two to begin the year won the Super Bowl. And

105
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,680
Speaker 3: also all the and two stats are a little bit

106
00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,320
Speaker 3: convoluted about like, oh, you only have like this percentage

107
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,920
Speaker 3: chance to make the playoffs, because with the addition of

108
00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,640
Speaker 3: the seventeenth game and the three wild card spots, it

109
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 3: just kind of changes everything. That's why last year you

110
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,760
Speaker 3: had the Broncos, the Ravens and the Rams all begin

111
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:55,360
Speaker 3: to two and make the playoffs pretty comfortably, right. So

112
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,280
Speaker 3: uh yeah for the Chiefs, it's frustrating in a lot

113
00:04:59,279 --> 00:05:00,840
Speaker 3: of ways. We're not you to this kind of thing.

114
00:05:00,839 --> 00:05:02,760
Speaker 3: We're used to getting off to good starts. We always

115
00:05:02,800 --> 00:05:05,840
Speaker 3: talk about how good we are normally in September. It's

116
00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:07,960
Speaker 3: a bummer. We all know what we want to win. Well,

117
00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 3: let's get back on track beginning this Sunday. And hey,

118
00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 3: hopefully in like eight nine weeks we're looking back on

119
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:16,599
Speaker 3: this and saying, can you believe we started?

120
00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 2: And two?

121
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,520
Speaker 3: That seems like a long time ago.

122
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: Just lock in on the opportunity that is Sunday night

123
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:24,360
Speaker 1: football against the Giants and again Crazy, the only team

124
00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:26,160
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have never beaten on the road. It's also

125
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: an opportunity to go around the world.

126
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:28,400
Speaker 2: What do we have?

127
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, I got six for you today, Six for.

128
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,360
Speaker 1: Brian Cook, who had a really good game against the Eagles. Yeah,

129
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,480
Speaker 1: he did one of those better games in recent memory.

130
00:05:35,920 --> 00:05:37,680
Speaker 1: So we have a listener in Wichita.

131
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,839

Speaker 1: There's got to be a chief bar in Brisbane, Australia.

134
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,240
Speaker 1: There's got to be. I think if there's not, get one.

135
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 3: And you and I should go investigate, just to just

136
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:53,680
Speaker 3: to make sure. You know, I think we should go.

137
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:55,400
Speaker 3: So we'll be are there soon.

138
00:05:55,480 --> 00:05:56,960

Speaker 3: Yes, golf shore would be uh Alabama.

159
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,080
Speaker 1: Those pee peel down there. But what they went through

160
00:06:54,120 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 1: with Hurricane Katrina was rough.

161
00:06:55,880 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay.

162
00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 1: Opportunities, what opportunity, chance to do something that's never been

163
00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520
Speaker 1: done in franchise history. The other opportunity I would say,

164
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,760
Speaker 1: in looking at this game, and let's just start on

165
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,640
Speaker 1: the offensive side, is the opportunity to get on track,

166
00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: and let's start with third downs.

167
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:12,400
Speaker 2: Because the Chiefs right.

168
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: Now, we're not in we haven't lived in this area

169
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:16,880
Speaker 1: very much, but twenty six in the league after two

170
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:20,200
Speaker 1: weeks in third down offense just nine of twenty six.

171
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:24,440
Speaker 1: This is a giant defense which is really good up front,

172
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 1: and third down is actually one of their better things. Statistically,

173
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,480
Speaker 1: they're in the middle of the pack. But the Chiefs

174
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:34,000
Speaker 1: have an opportunity to just set so close Pat was

175
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,000
Speaker 1: talking on the Kingdom Show, so close, but an opportunity

176
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:40,760
Speaker 1: to improve in every area, but especially third down offense.

177
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and like you were saying, we're used to the

178
00:07:43,640 --> 00:07:48,000
Speaker 3: Chiefs being incredibly efficient on third down hasn't happened so far,

179
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 3: And yeah, this is a really good Giants defensive front.

180
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,920
Speaker 3: Think about some of the players on this defensive line.

181
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 3: They have Keevon Thibodeau, Brian Burns, Dexter Lawrence abdul Carter

182
00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,720
Speaker 3: first round pick this year, Darius Alexand as a player

183
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:02,880
Speaker 3: I liked a lot during the draft process. He's on

184
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:05,160
Speaker 3: this team as well. It's kind of like a who's

185
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 3: who on their defensive front. But overall they have struggled

186
00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,240
Speaker 3: as a defense, right, I mean, they're allowing over six

187
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,600
Speaker 3: yards per play. That's they're dead last in the NFL

188
00:08:14,600 --> 00:08:16,760
Speaker 3: and the yards allowed per game at four hundred and

189
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 3: fifty five. And you might have watched last week's game

190
00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,280
Speaker 3: and you're going to say, okay, well last week was

191
00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,520
Speaker 3: the reason behind that. Surely they didn't give up a

192
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,480
Speaker 3: lot of yards in Week one. Well they did. They

193
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 3: give up four hundred and seventy eight in Week two

194
00:08:28,760 --> 00:08:31,080
Speaker 3: against the Cowboys in that crazy game, but allowed four

195
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,680
Speaker 3: hundred and thirty two to Washington in Week one. The

196
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 3: Commanders just didn't score a lot of points. So these

197
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 3: guys have to struggle defensively, and a lot of it

198
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 3: is because they struggled against the run. So teams have

199
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 3: run all over these guys. They're allowing the league worst

200
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,520
Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy eight rushing yards per game. How

201
00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:49,040
Speaker 3: do you make sure you convert your third downs? Well,

202
00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,920
Speaker 3: you make sure those third downs are short. And the

203
00:08:51,000 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 3: Chiefs struggled to run the ball this year. I mean

204
00:08:52,960 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes is the Chief's leading rusher at this point.

205
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 3: So if we can run the ball effectively against these guys,

206
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 3: maybe you're facing third and three, third and four instead

207
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:01,439
Speaker 3: of third and eight.

208
00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,200
Speaker 1: And they have allowed thirty nine ten plus plays. We

209
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,920
Speaker 1: always talk about thirty plus or twenty plus, but ten

210
00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:11,800
Speaker 1: plus plays are those that will completely put asset on

211
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,160
Speaker 1: a defense and just eat it out from the inside out.

212
00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:17,960
Speaker 1: And so those thirty nine ten plus plays, which include

213
00:09:17,960 --> 00:09:19,760
Speaker 1: a Gaba runs. You mentioned that the bottom of the

214
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,319
Speaker 1: league gives the Chiefs an opportunity to run the football.

215
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,960
Speaker 1: The other one that I'm going to bring up here

216
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:28,240
Speaker 1: is the fact that it gives the Chiefs a chance

217
00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,920
Speaker 1: to get takeaways. The Chiefs have no takeaways in the

218
00:09:31,920 --> 00:09:35,200
Speaker 1: first two games. Only six teams in the league have

219
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:37,679
Speaker 1: no takeaways in the first two weeks of the season.

220
00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:41,000
Speaker 1: The collective record of those six teams is two to ten,

221
00:09:41,920 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 1: and so a lot of the to two's here have

222
00:09:45,679 --> 00:09:48,920
Speaker 1: no takeaways. And that's where our guest comes into play

223
00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:53,080
Speaker 1: with Ashton Jilatti. Now there's only one giveaway by the Giants.

224
00:09:53,200 --> 00:09:56,480
Speaker 1: Russ Wilson looked like the Russ Wilson of twenty thirteen

225
00:09:56,520 --> 00:10:00,439
Speaker 1: and fourteen and fifteen. Incredible, really crazy and just chucking

226
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: the ball to the chief seats as they would say

227
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:06,320
Speaker 1: in the movie Hoosiers. But no takeaways is problematic, but

228
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,200
Speaker 1: you get an opportunity to try to get takeaways in

229
00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 1: this game and to be aggressive and both run defense

230
00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:16,000
Speaker 1: and pass defense against a giant team that has really

231
00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:16,560
Speaker 1: good players.

232
00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 2: We'll get to this in a.

233
00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: Minute, but at some point you've got to start taking

234
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:22,840
Speaker 1: the ball away. It's just too hard to win in

235
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: a Razor Thay National Football League if you said it

236
00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:26,439
Speaker 1: zero takeaways.

237
00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 3: And that was probably one of the differences last week, right,

238
00:10:29,480 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: It's pretty incredible if you look at the box score

239
00:10:31,920 --> 00:10:35,000
Speaker 3: between the Chiefs and Eagles last week, how almost everything

240
00:10:35,120 --> 00:10:37,760
Speaker 3: was exactly the same, Like the same number of rushing yards,

241
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 3: same number of pass yards, same number of this and that,

242
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 3: Like almost everything was the same. The difference, of course,

243
00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:45,880
Speaker 3: was the missfield goal by the Chiefs, albeit a long

244
00:10:45,920 --> 00:10:48,960
Speaker 3: one at fifty eight yards, the interception in the red zone,

245
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 3: and the short fourth thout attempt we went for that

246
00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:54,559
Speaker 3: didn't get and turned into a short field and a

247
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,679
Speaker 3: field goal for Philadelphia. Like, you take one of those

248
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:58,600
Speaker 3: three things out, the Chiefs probably win, or if you

249
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 3: give the Chiefs maybe one of those mistake On the

250
00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 3: Eagles side, I think about some of the balls that

251
00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 3: were battered than the air that our guys were diving for.

252
00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 3: If you get that interception, maybe you win the game.

253
00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 3: It didn't work out that way, but yeah, you got

254
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,439
Speaker 3: to get more turnovers defensively, because teams are too good

255
00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 3: in this league, particularly when you're facing a team like Philadelphia.

256
00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 3: Looking at New York, though, we need to figure out

257
00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:21,960
Speaker 3: who they are offensively, because I mean, the first two

258
00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,840
Speaker 3: games it couldn't be more different. Week one, they don't

259
00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,440
Speaker 3: score a touchdown, they lose twenty one to six. But

260
00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 3: last week they rack up over five hundred yards of

261
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:33,320
Speaker 3: offense and Wilson throws for over four hundred and fifty yards.

262
00:11:33,720 --> 00:11:36,440
Speaker 3: I mean, it was incredible. So can't let that happen.

263
00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:39,840
Speaker 3: Russell Wilson when he starts feeling it is going to

264
00:11:39,840 --> 00:11:41,800
Speaker 3: air it out. And yeah, I mean, look at what

265
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:43,800
Speaker 3: he did last week. He had seven throws of twenty

266
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,880
Speaker 3: five or more yards. That's the most he's ever had

267
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:48,719
Speaker 3: in a game. And he's I'm not talking about a

268
00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,920
Speaker 3: Seahawks career, even his Broncos career on the New York Giants,

269
00:11:51,960 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 3: so can't allow that.

270
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:53,559
Speaker 2: For sure.

271
00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:59,000
Speaker 1: We get excited on draft day. I'm no fans would

272
00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,840
Speaker 1: want to have a go pro and our draft room.

273
00:12:01,600 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 1: I'm glad they don't because it gets kind of grundy

274
00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,240
Speaker 1: in there. But anyway, one guy that we got excited

275
00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,120
Speaker 1: about when the Chiefs drafted him was Ashton Jalatti of

276
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,319
Speaker 1: the University of Louisville. We got even more excited when

277
00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:17,160
Speaker 1: we saw him on the field. He is key this

278
00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:21,520
Speaker 1: week in two big areas, not just defense but special teams.

279
00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 1: This guy is a beast and he joins us on

280
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,360
Speaker 1: defending the kingdom.

281
00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:29,000
Speaker 3: All right, we're joined now by Chiefs defensive end Ashton

282
00:12:29,040 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 3: Jalatti and Ashton, I feel like you've been here forever now,

283
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 3: but you got drafted five months ago, but you've been

284
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:37,719
Speaker 3: such a part of this so far, What have you

285
00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,120
Speaker 3: enjoyed most about being part of the Chiefs so far?

286
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,439
Speaker 4: I've just enjoyed obviously again my teammates. I think being

287
00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:45,280
Speaker 4: around the coaches. They've put a lot of trust in me,

288
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 4: and obviously we just have a good culture here, so

289
00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:52,120
Speaker 4: you know, just being around the guys and get more

290
00:12:52,120 --> 00:12:54,199
Speaker 4: familiar that's just been the best part about it.

291
00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 3: Where do you think you've grown the most since maybe

292
00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,439
Speaker 3: training camp began now here going into week three, I

293
00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 3: would say it's just.

294
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: You know, uh, actually, let me think.

295
00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,440
Speaker 4: I mean, there's a there's many ways to look at it,

296
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 4: but at the end of the day, like it's just

297
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:12,199
Speaker 4: more like your maturity, just how you approach it. Obviously,

298
00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 4: like I was trying to operate like that in college,

299
00:13:15,360 --> 00:13:19,120
Speaker 4: but there's really a professional like professionalism that you had

300
00:13:19,120 --> 00:13:21,839
Speaker 4: to carry yourself with, and that means like moving through

301
00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 4: the building, what you got to do outside of the building,

302
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:26,960
Speaker 4: like if you're getting massage therapists, or if you're getting

303
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,319
Speaker 4: whatever you need to get to get your body right,

304
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 4: you know, just doing that on your own rather than

305
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:35,000
Speaker 4: just being dependent on your training staff to do that.

306
00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,240
Speaker 2: That's probably the biggest thing I've learned on top of, like,

307
00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:39,319
Speaker 2: you know, playbook. I sure it says playbook.

308
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:44,240
Speaker 3: What's it like playing for Spags? Speaking of the playbook, it's.

309
00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,320
Speaker 2: Been it's been really good. I enjoyed the system.

310
00:13:47,559 --> 00:13:50,000
Speaker 4: Uh, there's a lot of diversity in it and a

311
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,480
Speaker 4: lot of different looks that we're trying to get. And

312
00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,480
Speaker 4: you know, sometimes he'll he'll pull a call out that

313
00:13:54,520 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 4: we haven't talked about in a couple of months. So, uh,

314
00:13:57,559 --> 00:14:00,160
Speaker 4: it's it's definitely fun to be in and you know,

315
00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:02,000
Speaker 4: I'm enjoying it.

316
00:14:02,360 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 3: So you played a little bit in week one. I

317
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,800
Speaker 3: think you got a little banged up in that game though,

318
00:14:05,920 --> 00:14:08,440
Speaker 3: but then twenty eight snaps last week against Philly, you

319
00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:10,800
Speaker 3: had a TfL on Saquon in the first series of

320
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,480
Speaker 3: the game. Just had it feel to get in there

321
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 3: and to really get into a flow where you weren't

322
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,920
Speaker 3: just rotating in you were really part of the defensive

323
00:14:16,920 --> 00:14:17,320
Speaker 3: game plan.

324
00:14:17,400 --> 00:14:18,760
Speaker 2: Last week. Now it felt good.

325
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:22,880
Speaker 4: Obviously, you know things happening, you know, bumps and bruises

326
00:14:22,960 --> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 4: and you just got to roll with It's football at

327
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:25,680
Speaker 4: the end.

328
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 2: Of the day.

329
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,120
Speaker 4: But you know, it felt good to just be able

330
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 4: to work in feel flow of a game, feel like

331
00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,600
Speaker 4: you're a part of it more and just get hands

332
00:14:34,680 --> 00:14:38,080
Speaker 4: on and especially to test yourself against I mean obviously

333
00:14:38,400 --> 00:14:41,400
Speaker 4: good old line so and good athletes. So just be

334
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:43,840
Speaker 4: able to feel that out and you know, keep going

335
00:14:44,440 --> 00:14:45,000
Speaker 4: the defense.

336
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:47,360
Speaker 3: In week one, there were some areas that obviously had

337
00:14:47,360 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 3: to clean up. But I mean, looking at last week,

338
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:51,040
Speaker 3: even though it came in a loss, the defense played

339
00:14:51,080 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 3: really really well. What are some things that you were

340
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,200
Speaker 3: proud of from last week against Philly that you can

341
00:14:55,240 --> 00:14:56,840
Speaker 3: carry now into the rest of the season.

342
00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,000
Speaker 4: I think we did a good job flying around, making

343
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,680
Speaker 4: sure we had multiple heads on the ball, Uh, make

344
00:15:01,720 --> 00:15:03,480
Speaker 4: sure that we don't give him good looks our coverage

345
00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:07,400
Speaker 4: guys are doing a tremendous job and coverage, you know,

346
00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:11,200
Speaker 4: doing what they do best. And obviously we were able

347
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:13,080
Speaker 4: to cut for you a little bit more. Rush a

348
00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,680
Speaker 4: little bit, get get hurts uncomfortable, get them off the spot.

349
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:19,240
Speaker 4: They can throw some balls early, and I mean that's

350
00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 4: how you have to play defense.

351
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,760
Speaker 2: You have to be aggressive and relentless cussing.

352
00:15:23,800 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 3: You and Omar are pretty close being in the same class. Yeah,

353
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 3: we fired up for him after that sound.

354
00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:32,960
Speaker 4: And a little dancey did obviously that's Omar though, like

355
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:36,400
Speaker 4: he's a big personality, and obviously it was like, you

356
00:15:36,400 --> 00:15:39,760
Speaker 4: can't dream draw really a better first sack, like a

357
00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:43,440
Speaker 4: clothes line, big game against big team, against a good quarterback,

358
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:45,600
Speaker 4: and you get to like to cleat them.

359
00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:48,280
Speaker 3: You know, you can't, like you can't, you can't not

360
00:15:48,320 --> 00:15:50,200
Speaker 3: get hype for that. Bulls get you one of those

361
00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:51,480
Speaker 3: against Russell Wilson this.

362
00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:55,120
Speaker 4: Way, I mean every week, basically every day, were trying

363
00:15:55,120 --> 00:15:57,680
Speaker 4: to get a sack, but can't chase chat chase sacks

364
00:15:58,080 --> 00:15:59,160
Speaker 4: because then they'll never come.

365
00:15:59,680 --> 00:16:03,480
Speaker 3: Well, hopefully, hopefully a few this week. Whenever we ask

366
00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:06,280
Speaker 3: the coaches or the front office really anyone about you,

367
00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:07,920
Speaker 3: the first thing they always say is he plays one

368
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 3: hundred miles an hour. What does that mean to you

369
00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 3: when you hear that.

370
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,240
Speaker 4: It means a lot obviously that I mean, that's part

371
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,640
Speaker 4: of the reason why they drafted me and you picked me,

372
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:20,320
Speaker 4: and you know, I just try to play with high effort,

373
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:23,040
Speaker 4: high motor, just to try to be around the ball

374
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,240
Speaker 4: because good things happening around the ball, and that comes

375
00:16:25,240 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 4: from my coaches across the year, just you know ingrained

376
00:16:28,440 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 4: that into me, and then just self will like you know,

377
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:33,560
Speaker 4: just trying to get to play, you know, like steal

378
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,280
Speaker 4: some ofw someone if I can, you know, so it

379
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:37,320
Speaker 4: means a lot obviously.

380
00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:40,040
Speaker 3: And last question, just looking at the Giants this week,

381
00:16:40,160 --> 00:16:42,440
Speaker 3: trying to get in the wind column are what are

382
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,200
Speaker 3: you thinking about the Giants and trying to slow these

383
00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 3: guys down.

384
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:46,080
Speaker 2: Obviously they got a lot of threats.

385
00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:51,280
Speaker 4: They had a big bag, very experienced quarterback, and they

386
00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,560
Speaker 4: got a lot of vertical threats, you know, so obviously

387
00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,360
Speaker 4: we were just trying to get on them. Basically, it's

388
00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 4: the same approach as every week. Really, at the end

389
00:16:58,640 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 4: of the day, you got to show up football. Yeah,

390
00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:03,200
Speaker 4: close games. You just got to bring it all together

391
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 4: now and come to go as a team. That's all

392
00:17:05,320 --> 00:17:05,600
Speaker 4: it is.

393
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,840
Speaker 3: Ashton Jalotti first sac coming this weekend.

394
00:17:09,200 --> 00:17:12,800
Speaker 1: Yes, Sir, Ashton Jalatti is so excited about his upside,

395
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:14,240
Speaker 1: But I'm going to tell you where I get super

396
00:17:14,280 --> 00:17:17,119
Speaker 1: excited too, is his special team's ability. You've got a

397
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,520
Speaker 1: two hundred and seventy pound human who can run like

398
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:23,240
Speaker 1: a deer, and Dave Tobe in the return game coverage

399
00:17:23,280 --> 00:17:26,399
Speaker 1: game can use him. We talk and how we do

400
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,120
Speaker 1: things where the kind of the fulcrumb is to make

401
00:17:30,160 --> 00:17:34,959
Speaker 1: things happen, and Ashton Jalotti becomes a really key person

402
00:17:35,040 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 1: in all four phases of special teams as well as defense.

403
00:17:37,960 --> 00:17:41,119
Speaker 3: Love his attitude, love his energy, both on special teams

404
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,880
Speaker 3: and on defense. And we're shooting this on a Tuesday.

405
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:46,280
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what Mike Dana's status is right now

406
00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,119
Speaker 3: on defense. We'll see if he's able to play in

407
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:50,040
Speaker 3: this game. Could be a point by the time this

408
00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:53,440
Speaker 3: comes out, But regardless, Ashton could get an opportunity to

409
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:55,760
Speaker 3: play some more here in this game and we'll see

410
00:17:55,760 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 3: what he can deliver. But we have to get some

411
00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:00,719
Speaker 3: pass rush going against the Giants. You can't Allowo Russ

412
00:18:00,720 --> 00:18:03,639
Speaker 3: to sit back there and unleash it fifty yards because

413
00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,320
Speaker 3: that at this point in his career, that's what he

414
00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,520
Speaker 3: wants to do. That's his game. And the defense I

415
00:18:08,520 --> 00:18:11,840
Speaker 3: think performed well enough to win on Sunday against the Eagles.

416
00:18:12,400 --> 00:18:14,479
Speaker 3: A lot of good energy from our defense in that

417
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:17,680
Speaker 3: game wasn't enough in the end, but still I got

418
00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:19,640
Speaker 3: to keep that going here going into this matchup.

419
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, before we went to the Jelati interview, you were

420
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,359
Speaker 1: talking about the deep ball by Russ Wilson and his

421
00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:30,520
Speaker 1: game last week against the Cowboys. Russ Wilson in that

422
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:33,520
Speaker 1: game had two hundred and sixty four passing yards on

423
00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: seven pass plays of twenty yards or more. That is

424
00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:39,920
Speaker 1: the most in nine seasons in the NFL by any human.

425
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:40,960
Speaker 2: What all right? Yeah?

426
00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:46,280
Speaker 1: And actually in the fact that he had multiple passing

427
00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,720
Speaker 1: touchdowns thirty yards or more, no other player has had

428
00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 1: two since twenty twelve. And Wilson was launching it down

429
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:56,280
Speaker 1: there three times to touchdowns. So there's not only Russ

430
00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: Wilson throwing. There is also Malik Neighbors catching. Now, how

431
00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,480
Speaker 1: many great receivers can come out of lsu Lak Neighbors

432
00:19:03,520 --> 00:19:04,200
Speaker 1: is another one.

433
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:04,919
Speaker 2: This dude.

434
00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:08,080
Speaker 1: Neighbors has one hundred and twenty three receptions in his

435
00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,240
Speaker 1: first seventeen games as a pro in the NFL. That

436
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 1: is third in the Super Bowl Area ERA. I should say,

437
00:19:14,840 --> 00:19:17,320
Speaker 1: then you throw in one, Dale Robinson, you have got

438
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:20,600
Speaker 1: a second deep ball threat. So your point of Wilson

439
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,879
Speaker 1: chucking it to the cheap seats and somehow getting pressure

440
00:19:23,880 --> 00:19:28,280
Speaker 1: on him with four preferably with four without blitzing, can

441
00:19:28,400 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: help limit the opportunity of Russell Wilson, who can hit

442
00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 1: the ball into the Dela cruise of the Cincinnati Reds.

443
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 1: You got to keep the deep ball out of the

444
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: Giants game.

445
00:19:39,600 --> 00:19:41,680
Speaker 3: So we didn't have a chance to watch their game

446
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 3: live because our game was about to start.

447
00:19:44,440 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 2: But I was.

448
00:19:46,040 --> 00:19:47,800
Speaker 3: I went back and watched it, and I was looking

449
00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: back through every single play and just what a roller

450
00:19:51,040 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 3: coaster and an adventure that game was. I mean, look

451
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:56,960
Speaker 3: at the first drive for the Giants.

452
00:19:57,080 --> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 1: Okay, you do the first drive. There were eight scores

453
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:03,760
Speaker 1: after the fourth quarter started.

454
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:07,960
Speaker 3: Here's how it started though. The whole game. Okay, five penalties,

455
00:20:08,640 --> 00:20:12,040
Speaker 3: one sack, a fifty yard bomb, all ins in a

456
00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:13,800
Speaker 3: field goal, and that's kind of like, that's how the

457
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,200
Speaker 3: whole game was. I think both teams had double digit penalties.

458
00:20:17,280 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 3: The Giants were penalized fourteen times. But what I'm trying

459
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,760
Speaker 3: to say is you can mitigate that if you're throwing

460
00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:24,840
Speaker 3: the ball so well downfield. And yeah, I mean, like

461
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:27,800
Speaker 3: I mentioned earlier, seven throws at least twenty five yards.

462
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,920
Speaker 3: Wilson had three hundred and sixteen yards at the catch

463
00:20:30,960 --> 00:20:33,840
Speaker 3: point last week, so it's not like he was throwing

464
00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:36,200
Speaker 3: it five yards and Neighbors broke free for a fifty

465
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,840
Speaker 3: yard touchdown. He threw it fifty yards to Neighbors. Neighbors

466
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 3: caught it. So you can't let that happen in this game.

467
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:45,399
Speaker 3: I mean Neighbors last week had nine receptions for one

468
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 3: hundred and sixty seven yards two touchdowns. Robinson had eight

469
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,480
Speaker 3: catches for one hundred and forty two yards in a touchdown.

470
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,879
Speaker 3: You can't let that happen in this game under no circumstances.

471
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:56,720
Speaker 3: The good news is, like I said earlier, the Chiefs

472
00:20:56,760 --> 00:20:59,560
Speaker 3: defense was much better last week in general and really

473
00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,000
Speaker 3: over the several years. We're not allowing a bunch of

474
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,880
Speaker 3: big plays like that in spag scheme. Can't start here

475
00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 3: in this game, because if you're looking for ways the

476
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:09,600
Speaker 3: Giants could win this game, that's how they do it

477
00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,639
Speaker 3: is they're going to hit you with some big plays downfield.

478
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 3: Can't let that happen here in this one, and hopefully

479
00:21:14,200 --> 00:21:15,680
Speaker 3: we'll get away with our first win of the year.

480
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,480
Speaker 1: Whatever you think of Russ Wilson as a Seahawk, a Bronco,

481
00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: a Steeler, or now a New York Giant, he does

482
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 1: have this sixty six passes for touchdowns of twenty yards

483
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:30,639
Speaker 1: or more since twenty eighteen. That covers all four of

484
00:21:30,640 --> 00:21:33,800
Speaker 1: those teams, and that's ten more than any quarterback in

485
00:21:33,800 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: this league. That includes Patrick, Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, everybody

486
00:21:38,560 --> 00:21:41,560
Speaker 1: else you want to find, So that becomes maybe the

487
00:21:41,560 --> 00:21:42,399
Speaker 1: crux of the matter.

488
00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:43,800
Speaker 2: One thing we're going.

489
00:21:43,680 --> 00:21:46,000
Speaker 1: To try to do throughout the fall is also keep

490
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 1: an eye on the opponent, so to speak, especially in

491
00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:53,080
Speaker 1: the AFC West. To the Chiefs are going for ten

492
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: straight AFC West titles. It will not be easy. The

493
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: West is loaded. We have seen that in the first

494
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,919
Speaker 1: two weeks of the season. But we've got Ari Wolf.

495
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: We have our spy behind the scenes. So it's remember

496
00:22:06,000 --> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: the cartoon Spy versus Spy. Oh yeah, this is Ari

497
00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:13,160
Speaker 1: Wolf though, and so our own version of spy versus Spy.

498
00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: Let's check in with Ari Wolf. You had a chance

499
00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:17,119
Speaker 1: to talk to him and his thoughts and what he's

500
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,840
Speaker 1: seeing around the league and especially in our division.

501
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 3: All right, everybody, we're starting a new segment this week.

502
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,439
Speaker 3: It has a working title. We're calling it westward Bound.

503
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 3: Right now, I think, of course, with Ari Wolf here,

504
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:32,199
Speaker 3: who you know Ari from our preseason broadcasts. The irony

505
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 3: of what Mitch and I do is we don't actually

506
00:22:33,880 --> 00:22:36,639
Speaker 3: get to watch a lot of football other than Chiefs games.

507
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:38,240
Speaker 3: And one thing I've always kind of thought about that

508
00:22:38,280 --> 00:22:41,520
Speaker 3: we don't really talk about on DTK is other games

509
00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 3: happening around the league, what happened outside of Chiefs Kingdom,

510
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,920
Speaker 3: Because obviously this impacts us well. Ari is going to

511
00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:48,920
Speaker 3: watch all these games for us every single week, and

512
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:50,879
Speaker 3: we're going to talk about it here. We'll have Mitchen

513
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:52,359
Speaker 3: here every once in a while too, But Mitch is

514
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 3: the busiest guy in the world, so they couldn't make

515
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 3: this one. But Ari, what's going on?

516
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,200
Speaker 5: Good morning to you, Matt. This is this is really

517
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,680
Speaker 5: a passion product. I feel like for both of us,

518
00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:03,520
Speaker 5: we're not really sure what it's going to tune in

519
00:23:03,920 --> 00:23:06,920
Speaker 5: turn into. But I think the beginning of this really

520
00:23:07,119 --> 00:23:10,600
Speaker 5: was our relationship that started back in twenty twenty one

521
00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:14,080
Speaker 5: when you joined up with me on the preseason games,

522
00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,080
Speaker 5: and I felt like there was like an instant connection.

523
00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:18,000
Speaker 5: I felt like I kind of felt like a little

524
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:20,120
Speaker 5: bit like a big brother to you. You were kind

525
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,639
Speaker 5: of making your debut doing the TV side, and I

526
00:23:23,680 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 5: just feel like from there forward we've just had this

527
00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:29,399
Speaker 5: connection talking about the Chiefs and talking about football. So really,

528
00:23:29,440 --> 00:23:32,640
Speaker 5: the idea behind creating this opportunity. I like to think

529
00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 5: of it as the podcast. Within the podcast is really

530
00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 5: just how much I admire you and your football knowledge,

531
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:41,280
Speaker 5: your football acumen. So there are lots of people in

532
00:23:41,320 --> 00:23:43,639
Speaker 5: my life I've had a great opportunity to talk football with.

533
00:23:43,800 --> 00:23:45,440
Speaker 5: But the fact that we're going to get to talk

534
00:23:45,480 --> 00:23:48,400
Speaker 5: about football, that this is a part of the Kansas

535
00:23:48,440 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 5: City Chiefs, it's very humbling and flattering that we found

536
00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 5: a way to get this project underway. But I got

537
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,639
Speaker 5: to tell you made such a strong impression on me

538
00:23:56,720 --> 00:23:59,440
Speaker 5: back in that first preseason together, and it's kind of

539
00:23:59,480 --> 00:24:02,080
Speaker 5: built to where we're like, how can we create something

540
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,160
Speaker 5: for the Chiefs fans and for ourselves where we can

541
00:24:05,200 --> 00:24:07,440
Speaker 5: talk about things in the National Football League And I'm

542
00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,119
Speaker 5: just so excited to get started today.

543
00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, well thanks. Sorry. First of all, I still can't

544
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 3: believe they put me on TV. So the fact that

545
00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 3: you took me under your wing and everyone as part

546
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 3: of the broadcast crew kind of taught me what to

547
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,520
Speaker 3: do with all that, you know, meant the world to me.

548
00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 3: And it's so much fun doing the preseason with you,

549
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,199
Speaker 3: and we talk about it every single preseason. We've got

550
00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:26,679
Speaker 3: to find a way to get you involved during the

551
00:24:26,680 --> 00:24:29,840
Speaker 3: regular season, because even though you're not here in Kansas City,

552
00:24:29,960 --> 00:24:31,920
Speaker 3: you're still a part of this like all of us are,

553
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:34,360
Speaker 3: and trying to get another Lombardi Trophy.

554
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:34,680
Speaker 2: Right.

555
00:24:35,119 --> 00:24:37,080
Speaker 3: Kind of a weird start this year has Mintioned and

556
00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,119
Speaker 3: I have been talking about. But you know, one thing

557
00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,520
Speaker 3: I was going to say later is if we talk

558
00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:43,840
Speaker 3: about like the Dynasty of the Chiefs and all the

559
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,520
Speaker 3: different episodes of this incredible run that you's been on.

560
00:24:46,920 --> 00:24:48,080
Speaker 3: I think it's kind of cool that we have the

561
00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,840
Speaker 3: opportunity now to fight back from an zero to two

562
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:53,760
Speaker 3: start and hopefully win this whole thing. But anyway, let's

563
00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:56,679
Speaker 3: talk about some things happening around the NFL. What do

564
00:24:56,680 --> 00:24:58,399
Speaker 3: you want to start with the AFC West? What do

565
00:24:58,480 --> 00:24:58,840
Speaker 3: you think?

566
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:00,960
Speaker 5: Well, the AC I think we'll be one of the

567
00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:02,840
Speaker 5: things that we'll focus on here. But I just want

568
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:04,919
Speaker 5: to give everybody kind of an idea of what this

569
00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,480
Speaker 5: format is going to look like. Is we're hoping to

570
00:25:07,480 --> 00:25:09,679
Speaker 5: be around eleven twelve minutes, and we're going to do

571
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:11,879
Speaker 5: four topics for two and a half minutes, and then

572
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:13,480
Speaker 5: we're going to do a parting thought at the end.

573
00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:16,280
Speaker 5: And the parting thought could range week to week about

574
00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 5: something different going on, but I'll always have a connection

575
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:21,439
Speaker 5: to the Chiefs in some way, so just expect that.

576
00:25:21,520 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 5: So our first topic today was really telling everybody why

577
00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 5: we're doing this, and then I wanted to get in

578
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,119
Speaker 5: this tweek to the AFC West is our first, like

579
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 5: main topic, because I think the AFC West looks a

580
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:34,680
Speaker 5: lot different after two weeks than I think some of

581
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 5: us expected to and I think, you know, for Chiefs fans,

582
00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 5: the number one thing I take away from two weeks

583
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,800
Speaker 5: is that the division is deeper than it's been in

584
00:25:42,840 --> 00:25:45,680
Speaker 5: a long time. There will be no easy division games.

585
00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, tough to argue with that. I mean, the Chargers

586
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:51,440
Speaker 3: look really good. Their defense looks great once again. I mean,

587
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,520
Speaker 3: this was the number one scoring defense in the NFL

588
00:25:53,600 --> 00:25:55,720
Speaker 3: last year and looks like they've kind of carried that

589
00:25:55,760 --> 00:25:58,560
Speaker 3: over here into this season. The difference for them, though,

590
00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 3: is Herbert I think has taken a real jump, and

591
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:02,600
Speaker 3: we saw it in Week one how good he was,

592
00:26:02,960 --> 00:26:05,639
Speaker 3: and then last night against the Raiders, particularly in the

593
00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,600
Speaker 3: first half, I mean I thought he was excellent. So

594
00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,800
Speaker 3: he's always had the talent, always been a great player,

595
00:26:11,160 --> 00:26:14,000
Speaker 3: I think in terms of the measureables, and you saw

596
00:26:14,040 --> 00:26:16,639
Speaker 3: flashes from him, but he wasn't always putting it together,

597
00:26:17,040 --> 00:26:20,600
Speaker 3: particularly in big moments in games. We've seen it so far.

598
00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,639
Speaker 3: Can he continue it throughout the rest of the season.

599
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:25,080
Speaker 3: That's kind of the question with Herbert. But yeah, the

600
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,320
Speaker 3: Chargers look really good and I think it's going to

601
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,040
Speaker 3: be a great race with the Chiefs for the AFC West.

602
00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:31,280
Speaker 2: Here.

603
00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:34,000
Speaker 3: The Broncos look good as well. But I mean that

604
00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:37,120
Speaker 3: was a brutal loss last week. I mean, you think

605
00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:40,280
Speaker 3: you went and then you don't. It's tough to come

606
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:42,280
Speaker 3: back from that. I'm curious how a young team in

607
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,840
Speaker 3: Denver rebounds from losing a game like that last week.

608
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 5: I think bow Knicks is a more mature second year

609
00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:50,280
Speaker 5: quarterback than you would mostly than you would normally have.

610
00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:51,960
Speaker 5: And I think it speaks to his age, right, I

611
00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:53,960
Speaker 5: mean he was in college. It seemed like my entire

612
00:26:53,960 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 5: adult life, right. So I think that bo Nicks is

613
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 5: a unique leader. But it's the Sean Payton factor. I mean,

614
00:26:59,560 --> 00:27:01,720
Speaker 5: when you look at the AFC wes purely from a

615
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 5: head coaching perspective, I mean there are legends, right, I Mean,

616
00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:08,239
Speaker 5: Jim Harball is the only guy who hasn't won a

617
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 5: Super Bowl, and he's been a very successful NFL coach.

618
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:13,760
Speaker 5: So I think that when I look at the division,

619
00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:17,000
Speaker 5: the quality of the coaching, the veteran coaching, I think

620
00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:20,159
Speaker 5: it stands alone in the National Football League as having

621
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,280
Speaker 5: the best four coaches, and the depth at the head

622
00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 5: coaching position in the AFC West is clearly the best

623
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,080
Speaker 5: in football. Let's move to our next topic. I think

624
00:27:29,080 --> 00:27:31,399
Speaker 5: it's an interesting one. Let's start when you do which

625
00:27:31,480 --> 00:27:34,760
Speaker 5: two and oh team are you most surprised by and why.

626
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:36,879
Speaker 3: It has to be the Colts, right, I mean the

627
00:27:36,920 --> 00:27:39,879
Speaker 3: Colts being two and zero, it's just incredible. And how

628
00:27:39,920 --> 00:27:42,560
Speaker 3: they've done it. I mean they have seventeen offensive drives

629
00:27:42,840 --> 00:27:46,280
Speaker 3: and they've scored fourteen times. They don't have a punt,

630
00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,760
Speaker 3: they don't have a turnover through two games, they have

631
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,280
Speaker 3: two turnovers on downs, and they have one drive that

632
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:54,000
Speaker 3: the clock expired. Other than that, they've scored on every

633
00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:56,879
Speaker 3: single drive. I mean, I don't think any of us

634
00:27:56,920 --> 00:27:59,960
Speaker 3: saw that coming, particularly when you go with Daniel Jones

635
00:28:00,119 --> 00:28:03,600
Speaker 3: over your first round quarterback and Anthony Richardson. I think

636
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,080
Speaker 3: a lot of people thought it would be a long

637
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:07,240
Speaker 3: year for the Colts. And I mean, who knows. These

638
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:09,000
Speaker 3: things can always change. I look back on the Saints

639
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 3: last year when they started two and zero and they

640
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,280
Speaker 3: scored like forty points in both games and they didn't

641
00:28:13,320 --> 00:28:14,840
Speaker 3: win a game the rest of the year. Who knows.

642
00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:17,119
Speaker 3: But I mean, so far, it has to be the Colts.

643
00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:18,800
Speaker 3: I mean, good for them. Who saw this coming.

644
00:28:19,640 --> 00:28:23,200
Speaker 5: I mean literally, like if you saw my notes, it's Colts.

645
00:28:23,240 --> 00:28:26,040
Speaker 5: But then the qualifier remember the Saints from last year,

646
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:29,920
Speaker 5: literally on the exact same page. So it's not it's

647
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,080
Speaker 5: a little bit. It seems like an indictment on what

648
00:28:32,240 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 5: happened in New York because Daniel Jones, with Shane Steichen

649
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:39,160
Speaker 5: now as his head coach and its play caller, looks

650
00:28:39,200 --> 00:28:43,320
Speaker 5: like a super competent NFL quarterback. And look, Saquon Barkley

651
00:28:43,440 --> 00:28:45,960
Speaker 5: leaves the Giants. He already was thought of as a

652
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:48,920
Speaker 5: high level NFL player last year. Without the Giants, he's

653
00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 5: the offensive player of the year. So it's hard to

654
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:53,720
Speaker 5: not sort of connect the dots there. And so what

655
00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 5: was going on with that New York Giants locker room?

656
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,320
Speaker 5: What was going on with the offensive staff? Because you

657
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,240
Speaker 5: take these two guys out of New York and they're flourishing.

658
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 5: So I think the Daniel Jones thing, he always had

659
00:29:04,160 --> 00:29:07,080
Speaker 5: some qualities. I like, he is a dual threat quarterback, right,

660
00:29:07,120 --> 00:29:08,840
Speaker 5: he can get out of the pocket, he can run,

661
00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:11,680
Speaker 5: He's pretty athletic for his size. I think he's got

662
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 5: good leadership temperament. He's a little Eli Manning like. But

663
00:29:14,880 --> 00:29:17,640
Speaker 5: because they were, they just didn't have enough like sustained

664
00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 5: success there. I think everybody kind of wrote him off.

665
00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,080
Speaker 5: All Right, I want to move to the next topic.

666
00:29:22,120 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 2: Now.

667
00:29:22,240 --> 00:29:24,600
Speaker 5: I know that you don't get to watch watch a

668
00:29:24,600 --> 00:29:25,320
Speaker 5: lot of games.

669
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:27,320
Speaker 3: I fortunately do ironically.

670
00:29:27,800 --> 00:29:30,840
Speaker 5: Yes, So the best game of last week by far

671
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,040
Speaker 5: was the Giants at the Cowboys. I mean it was

672
00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:37,280
Speaker 5: a good old fashioned shootout. Russell Wilson to his last

673
00:29:37,320 --> 00:29:41,560
Speaker 5: throw of the game was vintage Russell Wilson. The fourth quarter,

674
00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:45,200
Speaker 5: it was just bang bang boom boom, touchdowns points. But

675
00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:49,600
Speaker 5: my greatest takeaway is that Brandon Aubrey has sort of

676
00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:53,640
Speaker 5: changed the sport. You get the ball now to midfield

677
00:29:53,720 --> 00:29:56,480
Speaker 5: and you think you're in realistic field goal range. I

678
00:29:56,520 --> 00:29:58,760
Speaker 5: couldn't believe the way they managed the clock that they

679
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,880
Speaker 5: were content with him taking one from sixty four yards

680
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:04,960
Speaker 5: like it was a forty four yard field goal. So

681
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:07,040
Speaker 5: I just think back to how are they all so

682
00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:09,400
Speaker 5: much better at kicking than they were fifteen years ago?

683
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:12,400
Speaker 5: The football is the same, Like, how have we evolved

684
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,200
Speaker 5: as a society with these kickers? Now it's realistic? I mean,

685
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,640
Speaker 5: the record long field goal was shorter than sixty four

686
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:22,800
Speaker 5: yards for most of my adult life, and now it

687
00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:25,120
Speaker 5: just seemed like, ho hum, We're not gonna worry about

688
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:28,240
Speaker 5: getting the five extra yards here. Let's just let Aubrey

689
00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,600
Speaker 5: take it from sixty four yards. He drills it to

690
00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 5: get the game into overtime. And I'm just astonished at

691
00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,960
Speaker 5: what kicking. I mean, the Chiefs are spoiled, Harrison Bucker's

692
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,120
Speaker 5: got the huge leg, But what's happened in the world?

693
00:30:40,120 --> 00:30:42,280
Speaker 5: Why are these guys able to make sixty plus yard

694
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,040
Speaker 5: field goals in a way that they couldn't do fifteen

695
00:30:44,120 --> 00:30:44,560
Speaker 5: years ago?

696
00:30:44,800 --> 00:30:46,880
Speaker 3: So I think about this in the same context of

697
00:30:47,200 --> 00:30:50,480
Speaker 3: forty yard dash times, how they constantly keep getting better.

698
00:30:50,920 --> 00:30:53,080
Speaker 3: Eventually there has to be a point where it just

699
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 3: can't get any better, right, Like, at what point where

700
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,760
Speaker 3: it not be humanly possible despite all the technolog and

701
00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:05,680
Speaker 3: sports medicine and everything to kick a certain distance, like

702
00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,120
Speaker 3: like in twenty years, are we going to be talking

703
00:31:07,160 --> 00:31:10,040
Speaker 3: about like seventy five yard field goals. That doesn't make

704
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 3: sense to me.

705
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,239
Speaker 5: Yeah, it doesn't make sense to me. And just the

706
00:31:13,320 --> 00:31:15,240
Speaker 5: ease with the way they do it and the way

707
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:18,320
Speaker 5: they in the leg it's just like it's no big deal,

708
00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 5: and you know, and it really was significant, I think

709
00:31:20,960 --> 00:31:22,760
Speaker 5: for the Cowboys if they would have fallen to zero

710
00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:24,920
Speaker 5: and two. You know, you know, Dallas is whether you

711
00:31:24,960 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 5: love them or hate them, is always one of the

712
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,200
Speaker 5: biggest stories in the league. So for them to beat

713
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,720
Speaker 5: a division opponent at home, otherwise they falled all into

714
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 5: losing two division games, so that was super fun. And

715
00:31:34,960 --> 00:31:37,040
Speaker 5: then I also want to look forward to, at least

716
00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:40,160
Speaker 5: on paper, what's the biggest game, and this one seems

717
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:42,880
Speaker 5: clear it's the biggest game. You've got the Detroit Lions

718
00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:46,360
Speaker 5: playing at the Baltimore Ravens and that's a pretty sexy

719
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 5: Monday night game. What are your thoughts heading into that game?

720
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:53,120
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting. You know, Baltimore got back on track

721
00:31:53,200 --> 00:31:56,440
Speaker 3: beating the Browns last week, but I still looking back

722
00:31:56,440 --> 00:31:59,400
Speaker 3: at that Bill's game in Week one for them that

723
00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,239
Speaker 3: they had it, you know, and this to give it

724
00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 3: away like they did. You fumble the ball away, you

725
00:32:04,840 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 3: give Buffalo a chance to steal that game. That's tough.

726
00:32:09,400 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 3: And now Baltimore, you know you're facing a good team

727
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:13,920
Speaker 3: in Detroit. Like you were saying earlier, though, we've seen

728
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:16,960
Speaker 3: two sides of Detroit where they were so good last

729
00:32:16,960 --> 00:32:20,240
Speaker 3: week against the Bears, but just couldn't do anything against

730
00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,600
Speaker 3: the Packers in week one. And was that more at

731
00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:25,640
Speaker 3: testament to the Packers defense or are the Lions going

732
00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:27,160
Speaker 3: to be this team that's kind of up and down.

733
00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:30,080
Speaker 3: I don't know, but it's an awesome matchup and we're

734
00:32:30,080 --> 00:32:31,680
Speaker 3: going to see both those teams soon. We're going to

735
00:32:31,680 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 3: see the Ravens next week after this Giants game, and

736
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:39,440
Speaker 3: Detroit is that week six? Maybe sounds right? Yeah, week six,

737
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:41,240
Speaker 3: we'll see Detroit. So what a schedule?

738
00:32:43,200 --> 00:32:46,440
Speaker 5: Yeah, well, because you know your division champs, that makes

739
00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:48,840
Speaker 5: your schedule tougher. And then if your division is better,

740
00:32:49,120 --> 00:32:52,360
Speaker 5: then suddenly the schedule looked pretty tough. Right, So, but look,

741
00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,720
Speaker 5: you know this, this group has been through so many

742
00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:57,840
Speaker 5: battles together. I think are our trust and Andy Reid

743
00:32:57,880 --> 00:33:00,400
Speaker 5: and the staff and Patrick Mahomes and look, I think

744
00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,560
Speaker 5: one guy who probably feels the worst right now is

745
00:33:02,600 --> 00:33:05,840
Speaker 5: Travis Kelsey. You spend far more time around him. Is

746
00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,920
Speaker 5: there a better guy in a locker room in the

747
00:33:07,960 --> 00:33:09,720
Speaker 5: nationale Football League? I think you can make a case

748
00:33:09,760 --> 00:33:12,040
Speaker 5: to Travis is the best teammate you could ever ask for.

749
00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:15,120
Speaker 5: So I'm sure that this has been really tough for him,

750
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 5: But boy, if that's the guy I would count on

751
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,760
Speaker 5: him in any situation, anytime those same plays happen in

752
00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,320
Speaker 5: the postseason, he's gonna make him. So again, I just

753
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:28,920
Speaker 5: say keep the faith, like, don't lose confidence in Travis

754
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 5: or anything about this team, because I'm telling you, once

755
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:34,440
Speaker 5: this thing gets rolling and everybody gets healthy, all will

756
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,000
Speaker 5: be right in the Kingdom. I am quite confident of that.

757
00:33:37,240 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 5: All right. So at the end of this every week

758
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:42,280
Speaker 5: I want to do a parting thought, and again I

759
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,520
Speaker 5: want it connected to the Chiefs. It's not necessarily has

760
00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:47,640
Speaker 5: to be about the Chiefs, but I'd like you to

761
00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:49,480
Speaker 5: give your parting thought and I'll go last.

762
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,440
Speaker 3: Yeah, I just circle back to what I said earlier

763
00:33:52,760 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 3: about how I think in the context of this Chiefs run,

764
00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 3: we've seen them do it so many different ways. Obviously,

765
00:33:58,440 --> 00:34:01,160
Speaker 3: we've seen him steamroll to a Vision title, get the

766
00:34:01,160 --> 00:34:03,600
Speaker 3: one seed, win the Super Bowl. We've seen that, but

767
00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:07,440
Speaker 3: I think maybe the most fun retroactively I've had in

768
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:11,280
Speaker 3: this role was twenty twenty three when everybody was doubting

769
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,239
Speaker 3: the Chiefs. I mean, you mentioned it. They start nine

770
00:34:14,280 --> 00:34:16,480
Speaker 3: to six. At times, it kind of felt like we

771
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:18,560
Speaker 3: were just hanging on for dear life. And then you

772
00:34:18,600 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 3: have to go through maybe the toughest gauntlet of playoff

773
00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 3: opponents ever, where you have to play the Dolphins and

774
00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,680
Speaker 3: freezing cold weather, you have to go to Buffalo and

775
00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,360
Speaker 3: beat them, to Baltimore, beat them, and beat the Niners

776
00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,799
Speaker 3: in the Super Bowl. I mean, just an incredible run, right,

777
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:33,800
Speaker 3: and I think that adds to the dynasty the Chiefs

778
00:34:33,840 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 3: have established. Well this year it's not how we planned it,

779
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 3: but it's kind of fun now that they start owing two,

780
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:44,919
Speaker 3: there's doom and gloom outside of Chiefs Kingdom. Well, now

781
00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:47,040
Speaker 3: they can go on a run and see what they

782
00:34:47,080 --> 00:34:49,600
Speaker 3: can accomplish and if they can do what we think

783
00:34:49,640 --> 00:34:51,239
Speaker 3: they can do and what we know they can do,

784
00:34:51,560 --> 00:34:53,440
Speaker 3: and hopefully win this whole thing at the end of it.

785
00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:55,920
Speaker 3: To think where they started, it's pretty cool that the

786
00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:59,160
Speaker 3: Chiefs truly are this inevitable force. So they got to

787
00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:01,560
Speaker 3: go out there and do it. But that's the opportunity

788
00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:05,040
Speaker 3: I'm looking at after this, so and to start opportunity.

789
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:08,200
Speaker 5: It's a great thing to have, all right, my parting thought,

790
00:35:08,440 --> 00:35:10,600
Speaker 5: and this is like one that's more sort of like

791
00:35:10,680 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 5: deeply personal. So this month, thirty years ago, playing pickup

792
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,520
Speaker 5: basketball at USC, I was new on campus. I was

793
00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:19,960
Speaker 5: a first year grad student. A guy I had never

794
00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:22,799
Speaker 5: met comes to play pickup basketball named Robbie Davis. He

795
00:35:23,040 --> 00:35:26,160
Speaker 5: had transferred to USC and so he was brand new

796
00:35:26,239 --> 00:35:28,839
Speaker 5: on campus. So I was trying to get a five

797
00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,600
Speaker 5: together play. He comes up and we're like, okay, let's

798
00:35:31,680 --> 00:35:35,560
Speaker 5: run well this month. We've now been friends for thirty years.

799
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:38,879
Speaker 5: He's my neighbor. He lives across the street. We walk

800
00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,799
Speaker 5: our dogs together every day, we work out together every day.

801
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,960
Speaker 5: He's like the best human being I've ever known. And

802
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:48,160
Speaker 5: one of our bucket list things was to go to

803
00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:51,600
Speaker 5: Lake Tahoe and play the Edgewood golf Course where Patrick

804
00:35:51,600 --> 00:35:54,399
Speaker 5: mahomes place in that celebrity golf outing that takes place

805
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:57,000
Speaker 5: every year in July. So after we get off this call,

806
00:35:57,239 --> 00:36:00,720
Speaker 5: we're flying to Lake Tahoe and tomorrow we're playing eighteen

807
00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 5: holes on this like epic golf course to celebrate thirty

808
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:06,720
Speaker 5: years of friendship that's been basically surrounded by our mutual

809
00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:09,880
Speaker 5: love of sports. And I'm excited next week to hopefully

810
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,160
Speaker 5: tell you that I don't completely choke and play the

811
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 5: first golf of my life and then it turns out great.

812
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 5: But it's just a really fun, exciting thing. So that's

813
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,400
Speaker 5: my parting thought for this week. That's sports friendship and

814
00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,200
Speaker 5: get a chance to go play a course I've watched

815
00:36:22,239 --> 00:36:25,279
Speaker 5: Patrick play. I'm really excited for the next couple of days.

816
00:36:25,560 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 3: That sounds absolutely amazing. Good Luck, I know so I

817
00:36:30,320 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 3: love the idea of golfing. I am a terrible golfer,

818
00:36:33,239 --> 00:36:34,960
Speaker 3: and I know I would embarrass myself. I have no

819
00:36:35,040 --> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 3: doubt you will. You'll make us all proud. Good Luck.

820
00:36:37,640 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 5: Well, yeah, we'll definitely hopefully have a lot of fun.

821
00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:42,480
Speaker 5: There's a lot of water on the course. I packed

822
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:47,000
Speaker 5: some extra golf balls. I've prepared for disaster. But more importantly,

823
00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,359
Speaker 5: this is episode one of you and I doing this,

824
00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:51,640
Speaker 5: and this is something we've been thinking, how do we

825
00:36:51,800 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 5: make this happen. I hope everybody likes it as much

826
00:36:55,400 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 5: as I enjoyed doing it. It was super fun. But

827
00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,839
Speaker 5: this is just the first. We're going to be doing

828
00:36:59,880 --> 00:37:03,080
Speaker 5: this every single week the podcast. Within the podcast, we're

829
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,640
Speaker 5: calling it Westward Bound with Ari Wolf for now. If

830
00:37:05,640 --> 00:37:08,080
Speaker 5: you guys have any other ideas, we're opening all the ideas.

831
00:37:08,080 --> 00:37:09,880
Speaker 5: But this is just the beginning of my friend and

832
00:37:09,920 --> 00:37:11,640
Speaker 5: I'm just so excited I get a chance to.

833
00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:11,960
Speaker 2: Do it with you.

834
00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:14,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. Likewise, man, hopefully we're doing this next time and

835
00:37:14,880 --> 00:37:17,000
Speaker 3: we're talking about a Chiefs win and not having to

836
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,719
Speaker 3: talk about the Chiefs being oh and two. All right,

837
00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:21,560
Speaker 3: you're the best. Thanks for making the time. I'll see

838
00:37:21,560 --> 00:37:22,120
Speaker 3: you next week.

839
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:23,320
Speaker 5: Okay, thanks Matt.

840
00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:27,000
Speaker 3: All right, great stuff there from Ari. A lot of fun,

841
00:37:27,160 --> 00:37:30,120
Speaker 3: you know. Like I was saying during that segment, Mitch

842
00:37:30,160 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 3: and I as like into football all the time, like

843
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:36,719
Speaker 3: we always are. We're into Chiefs football and constantly like

844
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:39,160
Speaker 3: watching Chiefs games and all that and preparing for Chiefs

845
00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,000
Speaker 3: games to the point where we don't always get to

846
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,279
Speaker 3: watch the other games that are going on, especially while

847
00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:46,840
Speaker 3: ours are happening. So love including Ari, get us thoughts,

848
00:37:46,840 --> 00:37:49,160
Speaker 3: and hopefully we're going to talk every week about other stuff.

849
00:37:49,160 --> 00:37:52,720
Speaker 3: That's happening just around the NFL and particularly in our division.

850
00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:56,040
Speaker 3: But looking at this game with the Giants, what else

851
00:37:56,040 --> 00:37:56,799
Speaker 3: stands out to you.

852
00:37:57,400 --> 00:37:59,680
Speaker 1: Well, let's just say this. We have opened a little

853
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:04,160
Speaker 1: for this is breaking news. We have opened embassies actually

854
00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:08,560
Speaker 1: near the Chargers training facility. Yes, near the Broncos training facility,

855
00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 1: near the Raiders training facility. Ari Wolfe is actually ambassador

856
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:15,600
Speaker 1: at all three embassy, so he'll just continue to rotate.

857
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:17,799
Speaker 1: And if you're a Kingdom defender, we want to hear

858
00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:21,200
Speaker 1: from you, if you want to be a willing participant

859
00:38:21,239 --> 00:38:24,640
Speaker 1: in any of the three embassies that we have at

860
00:38:24,680 --> 00:38:28,040
Speaker 1: our adversaries in the division. But you know, let there

861
00:38:28,040 --> 00:38:30,000
Speaker 1: be peace on earth where they're just you know, for

862
00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:32,759
Speaker 1: a cord, we're not doing any king of espionage. That's true,

863
00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,000
Speaker 1: Then let's hear from you. If you're in the Denver

864
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:39,600
Speaker 1: area or near the Raiders workout or the Chargers, you

865
00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:42,000
Speaker 1: can join Ari in this. We're just having some fun.

866
00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:43,960
Speaker 3: It's like how you know, like Jack Ryan is just

867
00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:45,279
Speaker 3: an analyst. It's all he does.

868
00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:47,760
Speaker 2: He's an analyst. Analyst sorry, analyst.

869
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,359
Speaker 1: Yes, we'll drop him out of helicopters trying to get

870
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 1: out of submarines somewhere in the Atlantic. Okay, we'll close

871
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:59,360
Speaker 1: this way, Special Teams. One really interesting story about this game.

872
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:03,799
Speaker 1: The New York Giants kicker is Graham Gano, who I

873
00:39:03,840 --> 00:39:08,080
Speaker 1: think came out of Genesis with Methuselah, Noah and the

874
00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:10,839
Speaker 1: others that lived like hundreds of years, you know, back

875
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:14,040
Speaker 1: at the beginning of recorded time. But here is Graham

876
00:39:14,040 --> 00:39:16,880
Speaker 1: Gonno in his sixteenth year as the Giants kicker. What

877
00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,440
Speaker 1: is fascinating is Graham Gano is a giant part of

878
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:24,160
Speaker 1: Chief's history and will always be told by you and I. Well,

879
00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,359
Speaker 1: what Graham Gano, What's he have to do with the Chiefs.

880
00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:29,360
Speaker 1: He's never played for the Chiefs, but Graham Gano is

881
00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,520
Speaker 1: right in the wheelhouse of history of the Chiefs.

882
00:39:31,640 --> 00:39:36,479
Speaker 3: So that was my first year as a full time employee, seventeen. Yeah,

883
00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:40,680
Speaker 3: and Cairo Santos was our kicker. Well, Cairo heard his hamstring?

884
00:39:40,719 --> 00:39:41,279
Speaker 3: Is that what it was?

885
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 1: It was his hamstring? Yeah, I remember seeing heard it

886
00:39:43,960 --> 00:39:46,080
Speaker 1: a camp. Yeah, just trying to kick a wet ball

887
00:39:46,120 --> 00:39:47,640
Speaker 1: in the rain, and yeah, it wasn't good.

888
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,520
Speaker 3: And at this point that started it.

889
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: Then he got hurt.

890
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 3: Later he got hurt. I think he reaggravated. And it

891
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 3: was going into week four Monday Night Football against the

892
00:39:56,960 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 3: Commanders had a different name back then. But anyway, Week

893
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,319
Speaker 3: four Monday Night Football, we put Cairo on IR. I

894
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,839
Speaker 3: wasn't a meeting just with like our digital crew, and

895
00:40:08,080 --> 00:40:10,760
Speaker 3: it's like, we don't have a kicker for Monday Night football,

896
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,200
Speaker 3: and we grabbed this guy named Harrison Butker off the

897
00:40:13,200 --> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 3: Panthers practice squad because the Panthers had Graham Gano and

898
00:40:17,040 --> 00:40:19,320
Speaker 3: didn't have room for Harrison. And the rest is history.

899
00:40:19,760 --> 00:40:22,960
Speaker 1: You don't have two kickers on a team sometimes, you know,

900
00:40:22,960 --> 00:40:25,520
Speaker 1: there have been a way back when some you don't

901
00:40:25,560 --> 00:40:27,399
Speaker 1: have two kickers on a team, and you usually don't

902
00:40:27,400 --> 00:40:29,799
Speaker 1: have a second kicker on the practice squad. Now, So

903
00:40:29,880 --> 00:40:33,799
Speaker 1: what Carolina did was they had a robust kicking competition

904
00:40:33,880 --> 00:40:37,839
Speaker 1: between Graham Gano and Harrison Butcker and Gano narrowly won.

905
00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 1: So they didn't want Harrison to like just get lost

906
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:44,320
Speaker 1: and not find his way back to the Carolina practice facility,

907
00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,239
Speaker 1: so they put him on practice squad. But we know

908
00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:49,680
Speaker 1: that you can claim a practice squad guy if you

909
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: put him on your fifty three.

910
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 2: That's exactly what happened.

911
00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:55,080
Speaker 1: Prior to that game against the Commanders back the other

912
00:40:55,239 --> 00:40:58,759
Speaker 1: the Washington football team right back in twenty seventeen, and

913
00:40:58,880 --> 00:41:02,360
Speaker 1: Butcker became a Chief and immediately kicked the game winning

914
00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 1: field goal against Washington that year. And how many great

915
00:41:06,560 --> 00:41:09,960
Speaker 1: field goals has he made. We've lost track of how

916
00:41:09,960 --> 00:41:14,439
Speaker 1: many big great field goals in history that Harrison Bucker's had.

917
00:41:14,520 --> 00:41:18,640
Speaker 1: So another great opportunity this week is for Harrison Bucker

918
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,520
Speaker 1: to I don't know, put up about twenty points himself

919
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:24,879
Speaker 1: in this game against Graham Gano. They'll stare at each

920
00:41:24,880 --> 00:41:27,359
Speaker 1: other across the field, and I know their thoughts will

921
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:28,600
Speaker 1: go back to twenty seventeen.

922
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 3: Hopefully just extra points though, right, Yeah, alles twenty extra

923
00:41:32,080 --> 00:41:33,680
Speaker 3: point Yeah, twenty.

924
00:41:33,400 --> 00:41:36,279
Speaker 1: One hundred and forty points. Boy, the Giants will really

925
00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 1: they're thirty first in red zone defense.

926
00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:39,320
Speaker 2: They'll be really bad. Yeah.

927
00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:41,799
Speaker 3: I think that would calm people down a little bit

928
00:41:41,840 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 3: that are a little bit stressed about the Chiefs offense.

929
00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 3: Just you know, Harrison Bucker goes out there with twenty

930
00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,360
