Speaker 1: Oral Banks, I think on this podcast throughout a big

45
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: number fifteen sacks, that's a possibility for you when I

46
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 1: think there were only five guys last year who hit

47
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: that number.

48
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:53,440

55
00:02:07,040 --> 00:02:10,680
Speaker 2: for snap or sacks per game. Do you ever allow

56
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 2: yourself to think like, if I stayed on the field,

57
00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:14,240
