1 00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: This is the Chief's official podcast network, taking dantage on 2 00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,360 Speaker 1: the day. When you get opportunity in this game, you 3 00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:17,120 Speaker 1: they can play touchdown Kansas City the Chiefs. All right, 4 00:00:17,239 --> 00:00:23,680 Speaker 1: in the thick of a baby, all right, our second 5 00:00:23,760 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: chapter of Defending the Kingdom. And now we're gonna talk 6 00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:33,159 Speaker 1: about everybody's favorite subject, and that is Patrick Mahomes because Barbershop, 7 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,440 Speaker 1: here's a deal. This kid is with the National Football 8 00:00:37,440 --> 00:00:40,640 Speaker 1: agam VP, but he has captured the hearts and minds 9 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,200 Speaker 1: not only the Chief's Kingdom, it's really the entire league 10 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: and beyond that. I mean, this guy has captivated the 11 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,600 Speaker 1: imagination of the world right now, at least the football world. 12 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:53,120 Speaker 1: I gotta believe he's one of the top three and 13 00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,520 Speaker 1: probably in all of sports. When you call talking about 14 00:00:55,560 --> 00:01:00,279 Speaker 1: social media, you're talking about followers, Instagram, tweets, everybody. Every 15 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 1: time I see a Twitter with his face beside it, 16 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: I'm reading exactly what he's saying word for word. He's 17 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 1: everybody is hanging on to every comment, every word, anytime 18 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,120 Speaker 1: he replies to anything that happens. Even in other sports. 19 00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,040 Speaker 1: It seems to be one of the top trending posts 20 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,080 Speaker 1: when it comes to social media. So he has everybody's 21 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: ear right now, and I know the Kingdom is so 22 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 1: excited that he's our quarterback. It's pretty crazy. I've been 23 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 1: with at public events with him this spring and it 24 00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: feels like I'm at I don't know what Tiger Woods 25 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,240 Speaker 1: in the prime right at Augusta. That's what it feels like. 26 00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:39,880 Speaker 1: His popularity is crazy. I mean when you look at 27 00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,800 Speaker 1: him as a football player last year, the stats and 28 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: I'm not going to nerd out on these stats, but 29 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: they're phenomenal. I mean you look at the yards per 30 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 1: attempts we all know, touchdowns over the interceptions ratio, his 31 00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: quarterback rating, but the best in the league. And first 32 00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:56,960 Speaker 1: offensive possessions at sixty nine points. Oh, he did it, 33 00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: first offensive possessions in the second half at seventy three 34 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: point on. I mean, the legitimacy of this guy is 35 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: and he doesn't seem like a one year flash in 36 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 1: the pan. And it's twofold because you talk about how 37 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: he has the stats, but he has his stats as 38 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 1: a young guy, not a whole bunch of NFL experience. 39 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 1: He's been playing football all his life. Definitely comes from 40 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 1: a pedigree of having professional you know, from his father 41 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:22,519 Speaker 1: and stuff like that. So he knows how to hand 42 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:24,960 Speaker 1: himselves professionally. But when you talk about on the field, 43 00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: the actual snaps under center in the shotgun on an 44 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 1: NFL NFL levels, he's pretty much a young guy. But 45 00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: he's performing like the best of the best in all 46 00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 1: the scenarios and all the situations. He's coming through with 47 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:46,639 Speaker 1: some of the most the most captivating highlights. The left hand, 48 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 1: the fifty yard bomb, the no look past. He's redefining 49 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: the position of quarterback, and he's doing it with such 50 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 1: a humble demeanor. Um, I have a chance to get 51 00:02:57,360 --> 00:02:59,079 Speaker 1: my hair cut with him at the same barber shop. 52 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,280 Speaker 1: We go to Purple Label ball shop and to see 53 00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 1: us sitting in the back, he comes through everybody's at all. 54 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,400 Speaker 1: He comes to the back of the barbershop and ask 55 00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:08,880 Speaker 1: my kids, Hey, what's your favorite subject in school? My 56 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,239 Speaker 1: kids talked to him a little bit. Hey, Barbara, let's 57 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,799 Speaker 1: take a picture with you and your kids together real quick. 58 00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 1: Da da da dah. To see that kind of I'm 59 00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,840 Speaker 1: I'm I'm just a normal person in a great situation, 60 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,919 Speaker 1: and see how humbly is about it. Knowing that this 61 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 1: guy's the MVP of the NFL, one of the top 62 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: top quarterbacks in the league, and he, you know, on 63 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,239 Speaker 1: average days, just the average guy and getting his haircut 64 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,360 Speaker 1: and you're please don't tell everybody when that haircut time is, 65 00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 1: because honestly, there'll be five thousand people outside that barbershop. 66 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 1: That's what I've seen, so the barbershop in the barbershop, 67 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:46,040 Speaker 1: which I think it's kind of cool for you, but 68 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 1: I've seen that too. I've seen how grounded he is. 69 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: I think his mom's awesome, but there's something to be 70 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: said about this kid white House, Texas or white House 71 00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 1: High School and Tyler and then going to Texas Tech. 72 00:03:56,800 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 1: He didn't go to Alabama, didn't go to USC or 73 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 1: use CLA or Notre Dame or one of those. He 74 00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: went to Texas Tech. And I just think that's framed 75 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:06,520 Speaker 1: him very well. But now the bazillion dollar question, and 76 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 1: I get it ask almost every day publicly and privately, 77 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,200 Speaker 1: is well, now what now? What does he do? I mean, 78 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:14,440 Speaker 1: the NFL is full of one hit wonders that just 79 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: slide away. So what do you think here of where 80 00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: he goes from here? Before before we do that, I 81 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,479 Speaker 1: had a chance to pull him aside. It's hard to 82 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:28,159 Speaker 1: get one on ones with Patrick anymore, just because of 83 00:04:28,200 --> 00:04:30,679 Speaker 1: the demand that's on him. But I had a shot 84 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,520 Speaker 1: at that and we had just to just talk ball. 85 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: So I asked him, and what's the next step? I 86 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 1: got to ask every day about us and about this, 87 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,359 Speaker 1: like now what And when people say okay, next step, 88 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: next level? Now what kind of a global question, what's 89 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:52,160 Speaker 1: your answer? Yeah? I mean, obviously the next step would 90 00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: be the super Bowl. We were so close to this 91 00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: last season of getting there, and that's ultimately go every 92 00:04:57,080 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 1: single year. And so for us, it's about getting better 93 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,479 Speaker 1: each and every day. I mean, it's a it's a 94 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,400 Speaker 1: big goal, but you if you keep improving each and 95 00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: every day, you can try to try to get better 96 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,400 Speaker 1: and get better and hopefully you get to that that 97 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: sort of blow winning. All right, So he's talking about 98 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: getting better each and every day. But when you think 99 00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:18,040 Speaker 1: about Patrick mahomes next step forward? What do you see? Think? 100 00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 1: What's where's your go from here? And I'm gonna treat 101 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:23,280 Speaker 1: Pat like he says, like everything else, he wants to 102 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,120 Speaker 1: be treated like every other person, So I'm gonna treat 103 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,320 Speaker 1: him like every other player. How do you define the 104 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: next level for an NFL player who's playing at the 105 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,760 Speaker 1: highest level. How do you define the next level for 106 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 1: any player on the Chiefs team, Well, it starts with 107 00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,440 Speaker 1: defining the position. You got to define what is the 108 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:40,480 Speaker 1: next level for a guy who just now had an 109 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 1: MVP season. Fifty touchdowns, five thousand yards? Is it a 110 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,240 Speaker 1: stats thing? Is it fifty five hundred yards? Is it 111 00:05:48,279 --> 00:05:51,760 Speaker 1: fifty five touchdowns? When you think about what is really 112 00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,400 Speaker 1: important from a quarterback position, it's about the win. It's 113 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:59,279 Speaker 1: not about his personal stats. It's about commanding all the 114 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 1: eleven guys on offense to every drive have an opportunity 115 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: to score touchdowns, field goals. Do whatever you have to do, 116 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,840 Speaker 1: keep the drive movement, create first down, first down, didn't touchdown, 117 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 1: if not a touchdown, didn't the field goal, shift the 118 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: field position so that the other team's offense has to 119 00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 1: go eighty ninety yards to go score. All of those 120 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 1: things are going through his mind every time the Chiefs 121 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:24,600 Speaker 1: have the ball. So he has to define that right. 122 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:26,320 Speaker 1: He has to define what it's gonna be his goals 123 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 1: going into the season. And then we talk about what 124 00:06:30,000 --> 00:06:33,359 Speaker 1: does the things that some of the greatest quarterbacks always have. 125 00:06:34,160 --> 00:06:39,160 Speaker 1: It's an ability to look at the routes, not the rush, 126 00:06:39,160 --> 00:06:41,839 Speaker 1: to be able to pay attention to his receivers running 127 00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:45,159 Speaker 1: their routes versus the coverage, and not about how the 128 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:49,240 Speaker 1: other opponent's defense is rushing him against his protection. And 129 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,679 Speaker 1: I'm seeing that where I've heard that. See the routes, 130 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: feel the rush, Yes, And he said he has the 131 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,120 Speaker 1: ability to do that, like he's got some censer around 132 00:06:56,160 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 1: his body where he knows Vin Miller's coming in a 133 00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: split second, so he goes to the left hand. I mean, 134 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: it's it's he might be the best I've ever seen 135 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: at that. So see the route, feel the rush exactly. 136 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 1: We're going with trust to protection, trust your preparation, but 137 00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:15,440 Speaker 1: you also have to trust the process. And I think 138 00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,000 Speaker 1: from the hierarchy here in Kansas City, we hear Beach 139 00:07:18,040 --> 00:07:20,040 Speaker 1: talk about it. We hear Coach Ree talk about it. 140 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: Trusting the process that's in the weight room, that's nutrition, 141 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 1: that's getting the rest, that's watching the film, that's doing 142 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,040 Speaker 1: the studying, and all the little things you have to 143 00:07:29,040 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: do to make sure that when you come in every 144 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 1: day you're getting better. It's something And like I said, 145 00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 1: that's not just from a quarterback position. That's that's the 146 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 1: expectation of every guy in the building. Yeah, we've heard 147 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,880 Speaker 1: people say that as a cliche. Get better every day. 148 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 1: People say it coach, I mean every sport, but to 149 00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 1: really do it, and I honestly think he does it. 150 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: And he's got the ability to hyper focus because people 151 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,360 Speaker 1: are saying, my gosh, he's doing all this stuff, right, 152 00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:55,040 Speaker 1: he's a sports he's covering mad and then he's flying here, 153 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 1: he's flying there, he's on this, he's on that. I said, yes, 154 00:07:58,200 --> 00:08:00,680 Speaker 1: but I've never seen that deter his foe focus like 155 00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 1: he is. Like whether it's OTAs or mandatory manted camp 156 00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:06,920 Speaker 1: or going into Saint Joe. The cat has the ability 157 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:11,280 Speaker 1: to stay locked in when that practice starts. He's in 158 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,840 Speaker 1: on it and he's trying to get improved on it. 159 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 1: As you were saying, yeah, I mean that's an endorsement effect, right, 160 00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:20,200 Speaker 1: That endorsement endorsement effect has it's going to cost you 161 00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: either to uh force your focus to leave the field, 162 00:08:26,320 --> 00:08:28,920 Speaker 1: leave what you're what you're here to do, because you're 163 00:08:28,920 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: too busy. You're on planes, you're signing autographs, you're you're 164 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:34,960 Speaker 1: trying to do community and some of the things are 165 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,920 Speaker 1: beneficial to community. Sometimes just the community work. The amount 166 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 1: of times that there's only so many babies you can 167 00:08:39,640 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: kiss out there in the community, there's only so many 168 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: hospitals you can go visit. Um, I'm buying you know, 169 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: a football, cleats for youth, underprivileged program. All those great 170 00:08:48,080 --> 00:08:50,600 Speaker 1: things you hear guys doing, Um, they do come at 171 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: a cost. And so it's a it's a it's a 172 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: it's a great balancing act between being committed to the 173 00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: community but also being committed to your craft. And that's 174 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: gonna be a tough thing for this guy to do 175 00:09:00,640 --> 00:09:02,560 Speaker 1: because so many people can be pulling on him from 176 00:09:02,559 --> 00:09:04,839 Speaker 1: so many different directions. But like I said, man, he's 177 00:09:04,840 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: been a guy from day one, has been so humble 178 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,319 Speaker 1: and so confident his confidence in visibilities to get it done. 179 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,720 Speaker 1: I really, I really can't wait to see the season 180 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: take off and barber shop. You know, my question has 181 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:19,400 Speaker 1: always been with any interaction I've got is is it real? 182 00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:22,000 Speaker 1: Is this cat real? Is he real? Is it's like 183 00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: he does he makes an appearance or he's doing for 184 00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 1: us some benevolent and there's a lot of things we 185 00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: haven't seen he's done behind the scenes. He doesn't have 186 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: to be out in front of it. He just is. 187 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 1: But I sense this is the way he was raised 188 00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,360 Speaker 1: and his background. This stuff's real to him. So here 189 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,800 Speaker 1: we are. Now let's go to the second quarter, and 190 00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,440 Speaker 1: that is he now has climbed the mountain. He got close, 191 00:09:46,400 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: But now you start a whole new mountain climb. You're 192 00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:51,560 Speaker 1: just filling your backpack right now? Is what this is about? 193 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: I ask him. Now he knows he's been around the league. 194 00:09:56,040 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 1: How do you do the climb? So third year in 195 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 1: the league, you know it's a mountain climb. I mean, 196 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: you know it's a long way to People will look 197 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 1: at the end this team where it's at right now 198 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: on starting basically the climb from now until Saint Joe. 199 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: What do you see in what has to happen? Yeah, 200 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: I mean there's a ton of competitiveness already. I mean 201 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: the guys are going after each other, getting each other better, 202 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,280 Speaker 1: but just building each other up. And so I think 203 00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:20,719 Speaker 1: that's the thing that we have to keep going on 204 00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 1: offensive defense, competing the special teams, competing against each other 205 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,360 Speaker 1: and trying to make each other better every single day. 206 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: The other thing would be to handle that because it's 207 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,439 Speaker 1: the more competitive it gets it can get, it can 208 00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 1: get you know, a see a little bit. But just 209 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,559 Speaker 1: from a leadership standpoint on both sides of the ball 210 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: in handling that learning at what have you learned and 211 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:43,320 Speaker 1: where are you at with that? Yeah, you want the fire. 212 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 1: You want everybody going out there and competing on every 213 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,000 Speaker 1: single rep. You want to make each other better. But 214 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 1: at the same time you get to know the mentality 215 00:10:49,200 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 1: with everybody. I mean, everybody's trying to get better. You 216 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:52,840 Speaker 1: have to see that. As a big pitcher, I mean, 217 00:10:52,880 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 1: you have that fire whenever the play is going on, 218 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:56,640 Speaker 1: but whenever gets to that locker room, you're still You're 219 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:58,640 Speaker 1: still the best friends. And so whenever you have teams 220 00:10:58,640 --> 00:10:59,800 Speaker 1: like that, are the teams that are great and the 221 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: team win a lot of football games? All right? He 222 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:04,440 Speaker 1: says something there. He sees a ton of competitiveness here. 223 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,440 Speaker 1: I think with this new defensive we're gonna that's the 224 00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 1: next podcast on Defending the Kingdoms. We're gonna get into 225 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 1: this defense and the intensity that's there. But this competitiveness 226 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 1: in the intensity and where Mahomes fits into this as 227 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 1: this quarterback position and then as the global leader. We 228 00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,440 Speaker 1: talk about competition and as an athlete who's been on 229 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:28,719 Speaker 1: the field. I've been through training camps. I know one thing. 230 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: Competition is king. That is the way to get guys 231 00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:34,280 Speaker 1: to if you want to. You take a set of 232 00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 1: skills that a guy has and he comes into every 233 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: every every player, all fifty three guys on your roster. 234 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:41,760 Speaker 1: We talk about training camp, so all one hundred guys 235 00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: on the roster, they're gonna come to camp with a 236 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 1: certain skill level. To be able to maximize eleven guys 237 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 1: on the field, it has to be a sense of competition. 238 00:11:51,520 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 1: It has to be a kind of a doggy dog. 239 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,120 Speaker 1: There's only so many seats at the table type mentality 240 00:11:58,480 --> 00:12:01,360 Speaker 1: for guys to really take their level to the next level. 241 00:12:01,760 --> 00:12:04,520 Speaker 1: And the only way you can create that from a 242 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,680 Speaker 1: coaching standpoint, from a general manager standpoint, you got to 243 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: create a level of competition at every spot on the 244 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: field so everybody realizes your yesterday isn't good enough. I 245 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,120 Speaker 1: need your best today and every day for this team 246 00:12:18,160 --> 00:12:20,720 Speaker 1: to keep moving in the right direction. That the second 247 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 1: you start wrestling your loyals the things you've arrived, whether 248 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,520 Speaker 1: it's the wide receivers, the running back, the quarterback position, 249 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:31,760 Speaker 1: the old line. Whenever anybody feels that little sense of security. 250 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: They cannot perform at their ultimate best. It's human nature. 251 00:12:36,080 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: So to prevent that, you need competition, and competition is keen. 252 00:12:39,920 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: And I'm saying it. I'm seeing it. I saw it. 253 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,840 Speaker 1: I'm seeing it throughout the spring. I saw it in 254 00:12:44,920 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: the mandatory mini camps. In fact, it's getting really intense. 255 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:53,000 Speaker 1: But and folks can go you can go back and 256 00:12:53,280 --> 00:12:55,199 Speaker 1: archive and listen to the archive. But the first one 257 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: because we kind of touched on this in the last 258 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: podcast or the episode one of Defending the Kingdom, and 259 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: that is the fine line, meaning you and I go 260 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,559 Speaker 1: at it now we're going to the locker room or 261 00:13:06,559 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 1: we're gonna go have a beer or you know what. 262 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 1: I can't I can't stand barber shopping. It's cool this dude, Now, 263 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: let's says that's real. I mean that can be an 264 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 1: issue here, right, definitely. And you've we've both seen it 265 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: that my household. Mom's handled this. If I mean, where's 266 00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,120 Speaker 1: the fine line? One with this team? You want to 267 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 1: build it, man, but not too far? And where's my homes? 268 00:13:29,960 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: It's rolling this it's so it's so man. It's it's 269 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:38,000 Speaker 1: a for a quarterback, right, quarterback obviously. You know, we 270 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:41,600 Speaker 1: understand that's the most important position on the team. Um, 271 00:13:41,679 --> 00:13:44,080 Speaker 1: he is the leader, He's the unspoken leader on the team. 272 00:13:44,120 --> 00:13:47,280 Speaker 1: He's the guy who's, uh, there is a ticket. There's 273 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 1: a ticket to be punched to get this team to 274 00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: the playoffs, to the super Bowl. It's with Pat Mahomes. 275 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 1: There's no doubt about that. And all the guys know it. 276 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:55,720 Speaker 1: No matter what your role is on the team, you 277 00:13:55,800 --> 00:13:59,199 Speaker 1: know that you need that guy more than anybody else. Um, 278 00:13:59,240 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: if you're gonna, you know, reach your destiny. But when 279 00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 1: it comes to training camp, that that fire gets going, 280 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 1: those those personal desires to be a part, to be 281 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: a part of that fifty three man roster gets going 282 00:14:11,000 --> 00:14:15,840 Speaker 1: so hot that it becomes like I can only explain 283 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 1: about it that I have a brother, I got an 284 00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: older brother, and I've gotten the many fights with some 285 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: different people in school. But I fought nobody as hard 286 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,680 Speaker 1: as I fought my brother. I fought my brother like 287 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: he was my mortal enemy whenever we got the fighting. 288 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:32,160 Speaker 1: But there was a respect level. I never kicked him, 289 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 1: I never poked his eyes out, I never punched him 290 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:38,320 Speaker 1: in his family jewels. It was it was just I 291 00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,160 Speaker 1: wanted to show him how strong I was. I was. 292 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: It was like a proving ground to my older brother, 293 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: showing him that I was more of a man than 294 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:47,440 Speaker 1: I was. You know, I was growing up and at 295 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,200 Speaker 1: some point I'm gonna be better and bigger than you. 296 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: That's kind of where I see from our You know, 297 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: when it's time for the offensive line and d line 298 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: to go again each other in one on ones and 299 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 1: you go against the same guy over and over to 300 00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: the point where you know, it gets to that point 301 00:14:59,800 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: where sometimes you throw blows. You um, you get to 302 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:04,960 Speaker 1: a little wrestling matches and all that kind of stuff, 303 00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 1: but it still has to be a level of uh, 304 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: we got we got to get to where we're going together. 305 00:15:09,880 --> 00:15:12,680 Speaker 1: We need to all be healthy, uh come week one, 306 00:15:13,160 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 1: and we want to make sure we as healthy as 307 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 1: possible come week seventeen and through the playoffs. So it's 308 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,680 Speaker 1: a it's a way to get the best out of 309 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,240 Speaker 1: one another. And sometimes you get to joking, you get 310 00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: you get under people's skin a little bit. It gets 311 00:15:24,920 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 1: a little personal, and sometimes you get to throw on blows. 312 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, you got to 313 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: back off and realize at the end of the day, 314 00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:33,360 Speaker 1: y'all still on the same team. Well, here's the deal too. 315 00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:35,720 Speaker 1: I had two brothers, one three years old or one 316 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 1: five years younger. So I'm that metal child. Right. That 317 00:15:38,360 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 1: explains a lot, Right, It's the whole metal child thing. 318 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:44,520 Speaker 1: And yes, we fought, but if you're gonna take on 319 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:46,720 Speaker 1: one of us, you're gonna take on all three of us. 320 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: And it's been that way kind of throughout life. And 321 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: that's where I think maybe Mahomes is going at with 322 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: this is Okay, this is gonna be intense, this defense 323 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:59,800 Speaker 1: is ratching it up. But you take on one of us, 324 00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:01,960 Speaker 1: you're checking on all of us. That's what you want 325 00:16:01,960 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: to carry over when you play jackson Ville open the season. Definitely. 326 00:16:05,280 --> 00:16:07,880 Speaker 1: So yeah, and training camp, a position's gonna fight a 327 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,840 Speaker 1: position because it's you know, everybody's fighting and clawing and scratching. 328 00:16:11,200 --> 00:16:13,440 Speaker 1: But the goal is for this team to fight together, 329 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: like you're saying, against a common opponent. Coming to redless 330 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,520 Speaker 1: season and being so convicted to be so that brotherhood, 331 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 1: that bond is so tight that when one guy makes 332 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:24,640 Speaker 1: a play, it's not that one guy making a sack, 333 00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:27,920 Speaker 1: it's the whole defense making a sack. And when the 334 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:30,640 Speaker 1: quarterback scores and throws a touchdown. Ain't just him, ain't 335 00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 1: my homes throwing it to Watkins or throwing it to 336 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,920 Speaker 1: Hill or throwing it to a honey thunder. Now it's 337 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 1: it's the entire Chiefs Kingdom. A whole team just scored 338 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,120 Speaker 1: on you. And when you have that type of mentality 339 00:16:43,120 --> 00:16:46,200 Speaker 1: and that starts rolling, now you know that see a 340 00:16:46,280 --> 00:16:48,760 Speaker 1: red start flowing, and it goes that that feeling goes 341 00:16:48,800 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: beyond the players, and then the fan based off feeling 342 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 1: like they're a part of it. So those defensive stops 343 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:57,640 Speaker 1: now become the entire organization, the tire fan base thinking 344 00:16:57,680 --> 00:16:59,720 Speaker 1: that we just made a stop, and it's all about 345 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: Bill in that definition of what the word we means, right, 346 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,560 Speaker 1: we isn't just one player making a move going to 347 00:17:06,600 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 1: get in a sack. It just it keeps going and 348 00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,720 Speaker 1: goes from that one player to the entire d line, 349 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:14,000 Speaker 1: to the entire defense, to the entire team, to the 350 00:17:14,080 --> 00:17:17,359 Speaker 1: organization to the fan base. And that's when you know 351 00:17:17,440 --> 00:17:20,919 Speaker 1: you have arrived. As far as fighting as a brotherhood, 352 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:25,200 Speaker 1: fighting is like one unit and that's the defining moment 353 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,160 Speaker 1: and that's what training camps about. That's why it has 354 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 1: to be hard. You have to fight. And here's here's 355 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 1: a great point to that. I mean, I'm gonna nerde 356 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:33,840 Speaker 1: up here. Last year, the Chiefs for twenty fifth in 357 00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: the league. They did all this offense and all of 358 00:17:35,880 --> 00:17:40,520 Speaker 1: this performance, I mean, twenty fifth in the league in possessions. 359 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:44,240 Speaker 1: All Right, the average, if they just the defense just 360 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 1: gets the average, that means Mahomes will get ten more 361 00:17:46,600 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: possessions a year, basically ten to sixteen. So he's going 362 00:17:51,800 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 1: to get another possession. Well, the Chiefs led the NFL 363 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 1: in percentages of times they scored. You give him one 364 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: more possession and just give him just sprinkle out sevens 365 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,280 Speaker 1: and threes. They would have been fifteen and one last year. 366 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: So I'm just saying that it's to your point where 367 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,919 Speaker 1: the defense gets at him off the field. And now 368 00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: you're giving Patrick Mahomes six more cards in the card game, 369 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 1: and Frank Clark and the Honey Badger and all of 370 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,120 Speaker 1: them are saying, here's some more cards go, And so 371 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,520 Speaker 1: let's just hope you don't bend the cards during training camp. Alight. 372 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: Now we're into the NFL games. You get a twelve 373 00:18:23,200 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 1: minute a half time in defending the Kingdom. You get 374 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: one second. There you go one hopefully went to the bathroom. 375 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: We got an orange or whatever. Because now we're going 376 00:18:32,359 --> 00:18:34,960 Speaker 1: to the third quarter, and the third quarter has to 377 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: deal with Patrick Mahomes and his ability to absorb. I 378 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,879 Speaker 1: asked him in this little chat we got off to 379 00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 1: the side and I asked him, all right, more time 380 00:18:46,520 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 1: you to absorb Andy, to absorb him and developing more 381 00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: dudes to help him. Coaches gives you more and more 382 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: the more you absorb, and then the more guys that 383 00:18:57,400 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: get reps. And what you've been able to do this 384 00:19:00,119 --> 00:19:02,400 Speaker 1: in summer with those guys. What are you seeing there? 385 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: Is you add more to your volume and two maybe 386 00:19:05,280 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: more weapons to the list. Yeah, exactly. I mean getting 387 00:19:07,720 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 1: the work with these guys for another year, keep building 388 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 1: that chemistry, get to expand on our playbook even more, 389 00:19:12,480 --> 00:19:15,240 Speaker 1: which is crazy, and get the test guys every each 390 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: and every day. That's the best thing is Coach doesn't 391 00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 1: stay stay in one place. He keeps he keeps evolving, 392 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,479 Speaker 1: he keeps getting better, and he wants to expand on 393 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:24,360 Speaker 1: everybody's knowledge of the offense. And so we're keep testing 394 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: the guys, testing me and the old line and We're 395 00:19:27,480 --> 00:19:28,879 Speaker 1: going to see what we can do and what we 396 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:33,000 Speaker 1: can all right there, he is more time, more reps, 397 00:19:33,280 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: more guys, more offense, his capacity to absorb what are 398 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 1: you seeing there? And how much bandwidth do we have 399 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 1: left in this kid's body. I loved how he explained it. 400 00:19:46,440 --> 00:19:49,840 Speaker 1: The playbook is evolving. That word evolved. It makes me. 401 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 1: It gives me goose bump to think about Coach Andy 402 00:19:53,119 --> 00:19:58,920 Speaker 1: Reid's philosophy and now coach Spagg's philosophy. They're teachers, yeah, 403 00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:03,160 Speaker 1: truly teaches of football philosophy. And when you have students 404 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:06,680 Speaker 1: that are willing and eager to learn not what to do, 405 00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,480 Speaker 1: but why you do it, that's the most important part. 406 00:20:09,520 --> 00:20:11,040 Speaker 1: Why are we doing what we Why are we going 407 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 1: vertical with this? Why we we need this zero route 408 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 1: to be so flattened? Why do I got to run 409 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,360 Speaker 1: this route so fast? You know? Why do I got 410 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:20,040 Speaker 1: a deep set on the offensive line? And this and 411 00:20:20,400 --> 00:20:23,040 Speaker 1: so all these different reasons that we ask the players 412 00:20:23,040 --> 00:20:25,439 Speaker 1: to do certain things. But now we have group of 413 00:20:25,480 --> 00:20:28,439 Speaker 1: players that want to go beyond the what am I 414 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,199 Speaker 1: doing and they want to actually learn the why. And 415 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,439 Speaker 1: so you have a whole team full of guys They 416 00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 1: want to evolve. They don't want the playbook to get stagnant. 417 00:20:36,680 --> 00:20:39,360 Speaker 1: They don't want they know what they're doing out there, 418 00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: and then they're ready for coach Read to take them 419 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:43,439 Speaker 1: to the next level. Let's continue to grow this thing, 420 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:45,919 Speaker 1: Let's continue to involve this offense. They know what it 421 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,560 Speaker 1: looks like to score thirty five points a game, and 422 00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:50,199 Speaker 1: now they want to challenge themselves to see if they 423 00:20:50,240 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: can score forty, something that has been unheard of in 424 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,679 Speaker 1: the NFL. They you know, I spoke last year so 425 00:20:56,680 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 1: many times about the teams being able to score thirty 426 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,240 Speaker 1: five points a game, and I was Everybody thought I 427 00:21:01,240 --> 00:21:03,399 Speaker 1: was crazy, and I said, what are you basing the 428 00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,320 Speaker 1: off Sean like history of the NFL says, as a 429 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:08,680 Speaker 1: team rarely scores thirty five points a game, And I said, 430 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:11,600 Speaker 1: I've seen my homes, I've seen the guy practice. I 431 00:21:11,680 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: see how he understands defenses, and I've seen him actually 432 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:20,479 Speaker 1: talk about his recall of defensive sets and formations and 433 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:23,320 Speaker 1: what somebody did to him three or four games ago, 434 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,960 Speaker 1: and how he wants to attack it now. That that 435 00:21:27,080 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 1: type of understanding of how offensive defenses work, what the 436 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:35,919 Speaker 1: weaknesses are on defense, and how to attack it offensively. 437 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 1: That is that is uncommon, and when you see a 438 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: guy like that who has that uncommon ability, you can 439 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,400 Speaker 1: start thinking about uncommon results. I got him when people 440 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 1: I was on a show in San Francisco. This is 441 00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,159 Speaker 1: actually be four last year between right to start the 442 00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:52,080 Speaker 1: regular season, and they were saying, what are you seeing him? 443 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 1: And I said, he's Steph Curry. I said, he's Steph Curry. 444 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 1: They're laughing at me. They're laughing me on the show, 445 00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 1: and I know what it was. When you get off 446 00:21:57,800 --> 00:22:01,400 Speaker 1: those shows, they're like, hey, replay that. Let's throw rocks 447 00:22:01,400 --> 00:22:03,879 Speaker 1: at the cat. And then they had me on to December. 448 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:09,159 Speaker 1: They go, dude, he's Steph Curry. But with mahomes and 449 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 1: getting more guys and he fans forget about guy like Pringle, 450 00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:15,720 Speaker 1: like he has really had a good spring. And I 451 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,959 Speaker 1: asked Patrick about him, because yeah, he's learning the offense. 452 00:22:18,000 --> 00:22:20,840 Speaker 1: He's getting it like he's understanding choice routes here, he 453 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:23,800 Speaker 1: knows what he what I want him to do. Or 454 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,040 Speaker 1: if a guy's playing him, shading him here, or he's 455 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:28,280 Speaker 1: seeing this kind of coverage, here's what we do with that. 456 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: Whether it's Gary Deed or de Rob just continues to get, 457 00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:34,760 Speaker 1: you know, more and more reps. And there's been the 458 00:22:34,840 --> 00:22:38,400 Speaker 1: young guys Darlin Thompson and Daryl Williams. So what he's 459 00:22:38,440 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 1: doing is how about it building this war chest of 460 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: guys where I talk about having more cards, Well he 461 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 1: can play now diamonds or spades, Oh definitely. And we 462 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: talk about, you know, we will go deeper into talking 463 00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,200 Speaker 1: about like what is the drive behind an offensive guy 464 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:57,240 Speaker 1: running around? You know, I'm the first option. I get 465 00:22:57,240 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: a second or two seconds into the play. Now I 466 00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:01,920 Speaker 1: know that I was the first option, so the quarterback 467 00:23:01,920 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 1: has probably come off me. So think about the intensity 468 00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:07,640 Speaker 1: of probably most receivers once they're twenty twenty five yards 469 00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:09,399 Speaker 1: in the field, they've run their route, the safety has 470 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,440 Speaker 1: already doubled them, so they kind of the play is 471 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 1: over for him. Not in our offense, and offense every 472 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: all five receivers are always alive throughout the play because 473 00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,679 Speaker 1: why because you have a quarterback who not only has 474 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,280 Speaker 1: the division to continue to see you throughout the whole play, 475 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:27,359 Speaker 1: but he also has the arm to get it to you. 476 00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:29,840 Speaker 1: I was a receiver in high school and I used 477 00:23:29,880 --> 00:23:32,520 Speaker 1: to run fade routes and then after about my twelfth step, 478 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:34,920 Speaker 1: I slowed, damn because they got throw me the ball. 479 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,719 Speaker 1: Couldn't throw it that deal. You couldn't if you know 480 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 1: that you're so deep, the guy can't get it to you. 481 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,639 Speaker 1: You saw looking for other stuff to do. So I 482 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,879 Speaker 1: have no idea how do you continue to defend or 483 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,760 Speaker 1: think about, you know, throughout the damn how to defend 484 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 1: the guy who keeps all four or five receivers live 485 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 1: throughout there throughout the play. It's it's it's amazing. You know, 486 00:23:56,520 --> 00:23:59,359 Speaker 1: no homes referred to that earlier. We might a reference 487 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 1: on our first podcast. You can go back and listen 488 00:24:01,840 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 1: to it. Like McCole Hartman like there's he said. He 489 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 1: kind of called him out without and in a nice way. 490 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:09,720 Speaker 1: It was like a leadership way of doing it. I 491 00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,120 Speaker 1: liked how he said it, but it was like, hey, 492 00:24:12,400 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 1: you may not be the primary cat on this route. 493 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: You run your route, and guess what on this team, 494 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:21,159 Speaker 1: there's the route after the route and all the other guys. 495 00:24:21,160 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: You could just see the rest of the guys going yep, 496 00:24:23,240 --> 00:24:25,480 Speaker 1: listen to him because that's the way it is. But 497 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:28,320 Speaker 1: if he gets more guys in that mentality thinking that 498 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 1: way and people think it's just the receivers. Nope, it's 499 00:24:30,640 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 1: the tie it ends, it's the running backs, it's everybody. 500 00:24:33,480 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: But if he gets everybody on that page thinking that way, 501 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:39,439 Speaker 1: then you have what Manning had with when the Colts 502 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,479 Speaker 1: were on fire. And then you have what Brady has 503 00:24:42,480 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 1: had when he's got those guys. He's got everybody working 504 00:24:45,720 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 1: in the same way. All spots of the defense are 505 00:24:49,000 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 1: all viable attack zones. Usually a defense, when we design 506 00:24:53,240 --> 00:24:54,720 Speaker 1: a defense, we always say, all right, this is the 507 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 1: weakness of a defense, and Cover two it's the seams, 508 00:24:57,640 --> 00:25:02,040 Speaker 1: and Cover three it's the flats against Pat Mahomes. You 509 00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:06,280 Speaker 1: have to realize defensively, once the primary receiver isn't there 510 00:25:06,359 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: and he understands what defense you're in, he's he has 511 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:14,480 Speaker 1: the capability of the Armed Division to attack every zone 512 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 1: in your defense the weakness to strength, and so from 513 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: a defensive standpoint, you always think top down, and you 514 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:24,399 Speaker 1: think once the receiver defines his routes, then we can 515 00:25:24,480 --> 00:25:27,680 Speaker 1: kind of attach ourselves to that receiver and start playing 516 00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 1: it like man. But when you play it like man, 517 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,600 Speaker 1: you avoid zones, and some of those deep zones, when 518 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:37,239 Speaker 1: they become avoided, you think to aself yourself defensively. This 519 00:25:37,320 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 1: quarterback he doesn't have the time or the arm to 520 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: deliver a ball fifty yards down on the opposite hash 521 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 1: this late in the dawn, because he knows the pressure 522 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:48,760 Speaker 1: is getting there and he's not willing to keep his 523 00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 1: eyes down deep that long, So you start to avoid 524 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:55,919 Speaker 1: deep zones. To attach yourself to crossing routes. You have 525 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 1: to you have to spend a whole week redefining what 526 00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,840 Speaker 1: it means to play defense against this quarterback. And I 527 00:26:03,880 --> 00:26:07,400 Speaker 1: think that makes him such a unique weapon. He's really 528 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 1: is He's going to redefine the quarterback position kind of 529 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:12,600 Speaker 1: like he did last year, and this is just the 530 00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,119 Speaker 1: next step to it. And beware if you play just 531 00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:17,239 Speaker 1: slots a man to man, because Andy Reid will hit 532 00:26:17,240 --> 00:26:19,880 Speaker 1: you with one of his four hundred screens he's got. 533 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,960 Speaker 1: I saw it during a mandatory mini camp. The defense 534 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: is playing great, Spags has got all his stuff rolling 535 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,080 Speaker 1: whoops that were about two or three times. It was 536 00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:30,159 Speaker 1: on those crazy Andy Reid screens that don't look like 537 00:26:30,200 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: a screen, and then Carlos Hyde pops out of the 538 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 1: clouds and it's all for fifty yards. I didn't even 539 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: look over at Spags. But it's just it's it's then 540 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 1: I mean, so you have scheme plus this person in 541 00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:45,160 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, I'm gonna nerd you out with one of these. 542 00:26:45,160 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: There's wonder the Chiefs were twenty eighth last year in 543 00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 1: the NFL. There's only thirty two teams. Unless we've added 544 00:26:50,080 --> 00:26:52,840 Speaker 1: some we haven't. There's they were twenty eighth in the 545 00:26:52,880 --> 00:26:56,440 Speaker 1: league and drop passes. Now you get that to fifteen. 546 00:26:56,920 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 1: Just put that up to the middle of the pack. 547 00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,359 Speaker 1: That's that many more completions and have many more opportunities 548 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:05,000 Speaker 1: to advance the ball. And I think that's what he 549 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 1: was saying. There more guys are figuring this out or 550 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:09,879 Speaker 1: I'm getting them ready to figure this out. Yeah, we 551 00:27:09,880 --> 00:27:11,960 Speaker 1: look at the offensive they say, we scored so many 552 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:15,159 Speaker 1: points last year from a national standpoint, they say, well, 553 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,479 Speaker 1: how do you improve on that? You fine tune it, 554 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: you detail it. You think about drop passes, You think 555 00:27:20,520 --> 00:27:23,359 Speaker 1: about run plays they went for negative, negative plays. You 556 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: think about pre snap you know, penalties, think those those 557 00:27:29,040 --> 00:27:31,880 Speaker 1: type of things are has nothing to do with skill level. 558 00:27:32,480 --> 00:27:35,080 Speaker 1: But when you talk about the effectiveness of an offensive drive, 559 00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,800 Speaker 1: where you know a starting drive, you think about taking 560 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: away offensive penalty or a drop ball or one negative 561 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,120 Speaker 1: run play. And now you try to think about keeping 562 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 1: this offense from getting the first damn first damn first 563 00:27:46,760 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: damn touchdown almost impossible. All those self inflicted wounds and 564 00:27:52,119 --> 00:27:55,159 Speaker 1: then no dimension turnovers. And I call them giveaways because 565 00:27:55,440 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 1: sometimes the defense gonna make a play. They don't make 566 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: it turn it over. But the giveaways the balls that 567 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 1: the offensive guy slips through his hands and bats up 568 00:28:02,560 --> 00:28:05,400 Speaker 1: in the air, or wide receiver or running back running 569 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:07,200 Speaker 1: with the ball and they have it out too wide 570 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: and somebody punches it out. Those are giveaways. If you 571 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 1: just protect the rock, know where the defense is coming, 572 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:16,080 Speaker 1: and take the yardages is given and go ahead and 573 00:28:16,080 --> 00:28:18,480 Speaker 1: get down and let's go to the next play. Man. 574 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: This this, this offense becomes almost unstoppable. Rams game last year, 575 00:28:22,359 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: I mean, you're just talking about the Rams game last 576 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,480 Speaker 1: year fifty one to go, wow man, shoot out, back 577 00:28:26,480 --> 00:28:30,120 Speaker 1: and forth. Rams had fourteen defensive points. Okay, so there 578 00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 1: you go. Fourth quarter, Here we go. This is Mahomes 579 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 1: loves this quarter, right, He's we played the three quarters 580 00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 1: with Mahomes. Now what but now what in the fourth quarter? 581 00:28:39,160 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 1: And it's dealing with the enemy. All three quarters so 582 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: far has been inside the fort. How Patrick has handled 583 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: that in the last month since THEFC Championship game. But 584 00:28:49,080 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: now it's handling the enemy. They are spending every waking minute, 585 00:28:52,440 --> 00:28:56,640 Speaker 1: particularly in the division or the conference challengers. What are 586 00:28:56,640 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 1: we going to do with this kid? Now? If you're 587 00:28:58,760 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, how do you stay one step ahead of 588 00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:03,720 Speaker 1: the enemy. You gotta find a way. You got to. 589 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:06,600 Speaker 1: You gotta find a way to Even even when everybody 590 00:29:06,640 --> 00:29:09,440 Speaker 1: else is patting union back. You say pats, you know, 591 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:14,400 Speaker 1: patting him on the back and telling them how great 592 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: last year was and how great he is and how 593 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: unique he is. He still has to dial it back 594 00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:24,240 Speaker 1: and realize the reason he's got all the success is 595 00:29:24,240 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: because he's been humble. He's been able to trust the process. 596 00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,440 Speaker 1: He trusts his protection. He trusted that other guys around 597 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,160 Speaker 1: him are doing their jobs. And now he has to 598 00:29:34,160 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: go out there and just perform and do what he does. 599 00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 1: He only has to be pat when he started thing. 600 00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: He has to be superman. He still has thing. He 601 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,600 Speaker 1: has to put the cape on him and do things 602 00:29:43,600 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 1: that he really don't have to do to win. Um, 603 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:48,080 Speaker 1: that's when things start to that's when you call it 604 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,960 Speaker 1: the wheel start to fall off. That's what I mean. 605 00:29:52,160 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 1: That's just organic. Even said it's just it's got to 606 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: be organic and generic. He can't be going by head 607 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:59,720 Speaker 1: and throwing the left handed pass on a month. That's okay, 608 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 1: you know, if it wasn't calling for time to do 609 00:30:01,720 --> 00:30:04,200 Speaker 1: a left handed pass. Let me give you another one. 610 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: Here's one with me, and I think I've even talked 611 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:08,960 Speaker 1: to him about it. And that's the time score situation. 612 00:30:09,000 --> 00:30:11,480 Speaker 1: I will give you a specific example here. It is 613 00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 1: the Seattle game last year. It is a firestorm. All 614 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: Seattle's heard about is how Arrowhead's the Ladies is loudest 615 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: stadium right, blah blah blah, one forty two point two 616 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. They're on fire. It's December. They need it, 617 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: they need the game right, they're getting they're in the rams, 618 00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 1: challenging blah blah blah. Chiefs get first possession, third down, 619 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,440 Speaker 1: and I think it's like six or seven. He's got 620 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 1: a shot at getting a first down. Throw it for 621 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:39,640 Speaker 1: eleven yards. Patrick Zing's a side arm hit that. Let's 622 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,720 Speaker 1: try to go for d Rob between bracketed coverage incomplete 623 00:30:42,760 --> 00:30:46,080 Speaker 1: three and out punt places on fire. We stop Patrick 624 00:30:46,120 --> 00:30:48,720 Speaker 1: mahomes punt, they go down and score. The Chiefs try 625 00:30:48,720 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 1: to work uphill the rest of the game. To me, 626 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:54,160 Speaker 1: that's a tangible example of time, score situation and how 627 00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:57,080 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes improves. And I think if you ask him, 628 00:30:57,120 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: he'll be the first to tell you. There's been many 629 00:30:59,720 --> 00:31:01,560 Speaker 1: times he looked at his film from last year where 630 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:04,120 Speaker 1: he says, I was my worst enemy in that I 631 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:05,719 Speaker 1: went I went for too much. I went for too 632 00:31:05,800 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 1: much too early in the game. I went for the 633 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: home run swing when all I needed was a single. 634 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: I just needed a bunt right there. They gave me 635 00:31:12,520 --> 00:31:14,440 Speaker 1: the first dawn. I could either ran for it, I 636 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:16,280 Speaker 1: could hit a little you know, curl route that they 637 00:31:16,280 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 1: had the first dawn to keep the chains going for 638 00:31:18,720 --> 00:31:21,880 Speaker 1: another set. And when you talk about that environment, especially 639 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:24,760 Speaker 1: on the road, when you have the other fan base 640 00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:28,160 Speaker 1: gnawing at you and then just they don't really know 641 00:31:28,200 --> 00:31:30,080 Speaker 1: if they can stop Pat Mahomes and that, and they 642 00:31:30,160 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: need their defense to show them so they can really 643 00:31:32,600 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 1: believe what they think they're saying. And in that game, 644 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:37,280 Speaker 1: I was at that game. I was there with Kevin 645 00:31:37,320 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: Lockett and Billy Babe was there, you know, his son 646 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: Tyler Lockers, so he was there and the Sweets watching 647 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:45,800 Speaker 1: that game. When that when that opening kickoff kicked off, 648 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: I swore I was back here at the Kingdom. It was. 649 00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,080 Speaker 1: It was loud, it was deafening, But like you were right, 650 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:54,160 Speaker 1: when that first drive, it was some hesitation in the 651 00:31:54,240 --> 00:31:56,360 Speaker 1: fan base. There was a little bit of doubt in 652 00:31:56,400 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: that fan base if they really could stop this phenom. 653 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 1: And the defense got off the field, and you've heard 654 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: instead of instead of Pat taking that first damn and 655 00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,520 Speaker 1: kind of letting some air out of the sales of 656 00:32:08,560 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 1: the thirteenth man there in Seattle by going forward and incomplete, 657 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:15,480 Speaker 1: it pumped him up. It was like gasoline thrown on 658 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 1: the fire and they started roaring, and that fire didn't 659 00:32:18,520 --> 00:32:19,880 Speaker 1: stop until the end of the game. It was a 660 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 1: barn burning. That was a game to go down. That 661 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,239 Speaker 1: was a great game on both sides. But like you're 662 00:32:24,240 --> 00:32:26,560 Speaker 1: saying from a quarterback quisition, to be able to take 663 00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 1: some of the air out of that that crowd during 664 00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: the away game with so much riding on it, a 665 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 1: first dam would have been almost important, and it's valuable 666 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: as a touchdown and a six minute drive and put 667 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:39,400 Speaker 1: seven on the board because he's number one in the 668 00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:42,360 Speaker 1: NFL and red zone touchdowns with thirty five and you 669 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:44,120 Speaker 1: go up seven and nothing. You suck some of the 670 00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 1: helium out all that Twelfth Man and all that. So 671 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:48,719 Speaker 1: it's gonna be fun. But here we are a second 672 00:32:49,320 --> 00:32:52,760 Speaker 1: defending the kingdom.

Definitely, And then you know, we 677 00:33:04,520 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 1: said leadership is something that it's it's a born thing. 678 00:33:07,120 --> 00:33:09,600 Speaker 1: You can't you can't teach somebody how to be a leader.

Um we see guys m Baker 682 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 1: Mayfield and we see that Russell where every team has 683 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:21,240 Speaker 1: a guy that they put in the leadership and they 684 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:26,320 Speaker 1: do it in different ways. I can never be as us. 685 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 1: It's just encouraged and excited about having a leader like 686 00:33:31,840 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 1: we have here with Pat Mahomes, as humble as he 687 00:33:33,920 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: is as as as professional he is, but as talented 688 00:33:37,520 --> 00:33:39,360 Speaker 1: as he is.

It's such 692 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: a thrill to be able to follow him and watch 693 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 1: him on a weekly basis.
