Speaker 1: to the Chargers twenty twenty scheduled release reaction show. I'm

3
00:00:09,160 --> 00:00:11,799
Speaker 1: Haley Ellwood and on behalf of Chris Harry and all

4
00:00:11,840 --> 00:00:13,840
Speaker 1: of us here at the Los Angeles Chargers. We just

5
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: wanted to start out by saying thank you to all

6
00:00:16,360 --> 00:00:18,880
Speaker 1: of those frontline workers for all that they are doing

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:21,880
Speaker 1: and all the sacrifices that they are making during this

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 1: time to keep us and all of our communities safe

9
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,800
Speaker 1: and functioning. And with that being said, you just watch

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,800
Speaker 1: that video. It's so emotional, it's so touching. And as

11
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,720
Speaker 1: you saw, some of those frontline workers helped us announce

12
00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 1: our schedule and that's why we're here. That is why

13
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: we are coming to you live right now to chat

14
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,720
Speaker 1: all things that are on the horizon for the Chargers

15
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:43,320
Speaker 1: this season, and also the fact that this is the

16
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,000
Speaker 1: inaugural season for the Bolts at SOFI Stadium. So, Chris,

17
00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:49,880
Speaker 1: I'm gonna throw to you. We got the schedule, We've

18
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,200
Speaker 1: had a little time to we got it to check

19
00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: it out, look it over, sort of what are your thoughts? Well,

20
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:58,920
Speaker 1: let me just echo what you said. Video gives you chills,

21
00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:02,160
Speaker 1: and in order to fully enjoy football, we gotta take

22
00:01:02,200 --> 00:01:03,560
Speaker 1: care of each other. We gotta take care of our

23
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 1: friends and family, and we got to take care of

24
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,199
Speaker 1: our health and our frontline workers. Bravo to you guys,

25
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 1: And I couldn't think of better people to introduce our

26
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 1: schedule and Hally, for me, it's a good looking schedule, Okay.

27
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: I look for a few things when you look at

28
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,680
Speaker 1: a sixteen game schedule. Where's the buy the buys right

29
00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 1: in the middle of the year and the team is

30
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: not on the road for more than two weeks at

31
00:01:25,760 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 1: a time, So I think that's great. But the number

32
00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 1: one thing I look for, especially twenty twenty, is what

33
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 1: is the home opener at Sofi Stadium? Right it's against

34
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,360
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs, the Super Bowl champions in Week two,

35
00:01:36,800 --> 00:01:41,040
Speaker 1: and what would be a better win Sofi Stadium against

36
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: Skanfay Chiefs, Patrick Mahomes and company. That's what I'm looking for,

37
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:47,640
Speaker 1: and I'm excited to kick it off against an AFC

38
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: West Phone absolutely. I then kind of go to primetime

39
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: games where the Bolt's going to be playing in primetime,

40
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: and the first opportunity is Week five in New Orleans

41
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: against the Saints on Monday Night football, and then there's

42
00:01:59,600 --> 00:02:02,520
Speaker 1: a little bit of weight there. But then we head

43
00:02:02,520 --> 00:02:05,560
Speaker 1: out to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders in

44
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: Week fifteen, which I believe is the final Thursday game

45
00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:12,840
Speaker 1: of the twenty twenty NFL season. So it's always kind

46
00:02:12,880 --> 00:02:14,959
Speaker 1: of cool, you know, this team gets to show off

47
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 1: those sweet new uniforms in primetime. The whole country is

48
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:20,040
Speaker 1: going to be checking those out. And there are also

49
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,480
Speaker 1: some kind of quirks with this schedule. I mean, only

50
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: one home game in the entire month of October, that

51
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 1: is Week six against the Jets. But otherwise it's a

52
00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:32,959
Speaker 1: pretty normal, if you will, sort of schedule, like you said,

53
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,200
Speaker 1: to never have more than two road games back to

54
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 1: back at the time. That's pretty solid. And what I

55
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: love about it too, is you look at the back

56
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 1: half of the year. Right the whole month of December,

57
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: the Chargers are on the West Coast, three home games

58
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: and then a Thursday night game in Vegas. That's a

59
00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 1: quick trip back and forth. Then you get an extended

60
00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 1: by there, so to be fresh and to be at

61
00:02:51,880 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 1: home towards the back half of the year when you

62
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,120
Speaker 1: try to stack wins trying to get in the playoffs.

63
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 1: I think that's huge too, And I know we have

64
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 1: some guests, but I just remind every by who's listening

65
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,800
Speaker 1: that select single game tickets they're gonna be on sale

66
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 1: starting at six pm Pacific tonight, So go to Chargers

00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 1: Michael Badgeley and Isaac Rochelle. What's up, guys? How are you?

73
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:26,560
Speaker 1: I'm kind of going in and out here on the internet.

74
00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: I guess it's kind of it's kind of streaming and

75
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,640
Speaker 1: it looks it looks good, looks good. Hey, who's I

76
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 1: think the Beast? Rochelle? Yeah, you know, not many people know,

77
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: but that actually is my uh it's my given birth

78
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,840
Speaker 1: middle name, the Beast. So yeah, Isaac, the Beast, Rochelle, Badge.

79
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,480
Speaker 1: You didn't give us, You didn't give us the nickname Broth. Yeah.

80
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: I didn't throw the money Badger in there because I've

81
00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:52,720
Speaker 1: you know what I've never heard anyone call Isaac that

82
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: I one Henry that's where. Oh yeah, he is the beast.

83
00:03:59,160 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: He is the beast. Guys. I thought we would do

84
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 1: this because coachlnd likes to break it up into quarters, right,

85
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: so let's just go into quarters here. Weeks one before

86
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,560
Speaker 1: at Bengals home against the Chiefs, we talked about that

87
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:15,160
Speaker 1: home against the Panthers, Matt Rules first game here in

88
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: LA and then at Tom Brady and the Buccaneers. Your

89
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:23,000
Speaker 1: reaction to the first four games, Guys, what do you think? Yeah,

90
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:26,400
Speaker 1: I'll kick us off here. Uh, you know, I think

91
00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: you look at those first four right, you got Joe

92
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 1: Burrow going to the Bengals big prime time, you got

93
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl champs for our home opener. You got

94
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:39,440
Speaker 1: Matt Rule and Thatt you know, redone Carolina Panthers team,

95
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 1: and you got Tom Brady going to the Buccaneers. And

96
00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,120
Speaker 1: it's you talk about must see television. I think they're

97
00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna be all over the national schedule and all that.

98
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 1: So it's it's it's an exciting first first quarter of

99
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: the season. Yeah. I couldn't agree with Badge more. I mean,

100
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,640
Speaker 1: he's got he had a great answer, but it's like, yeah,

101
00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:04,239
Speaker 1: can you Yeah, I hear you. Yeah, we got you guys,

102
00:05:04,240 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 1: We're good. But you talked about four weeks of our schedule. One,

103
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:11,599
Speaker 1: we're gonna be tested, which I think is really good

104
00:05:11,640 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 1: for the team. We're talking about within the first two

105
00:05:14,080 --> 00:05:17,360
Speaker 1: weeks we're playing the Super Bowl champ um. And then

106
00:05:17,400 --> 00:05:19,719
Speaker 1: like bad said, we're gonna get to, you know, challenge

107
00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:24,039
Speaker 1: some of these new quarterbacks and new situations. Um. But again,

108
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a good challenge for us. I think

109
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,880
Speaker 1: it'll really set the stage for us to do well

110
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,600
Speaker 1: for the rest of the season, having played some really

111
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:35,000
Speaker 1: good teams early on. Yeah, you know what. I look

112
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,320
Speaker 1: at the schedule too, and you guys have not played obviously,

113
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,600
Speaker 1: it's so FI stadium. We know that. Have you played

114
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 1: in Tampa in Carolina even in college? No, I don't play.

115
00:05:45,800 --> 00:05:48,840
Speaker 1: I played in Carolina Stadium. I did for the ACC

116
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:55,200
Speaker 1: Championship when we played Clemson. We got smoked. But I've

117
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: played in that stadium. But no, I've never I've never

118
00:05:57,360 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 1: played at Tampa. Well, I mean, what a surprise, bad

119
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 1: talking about Miami losing games. I've never I've never played

120
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,920
Speaker 1: the Bucks or the Panthers and I've never even been

121
00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:14,120
Speaker 1: to those stadiums, so that'll be that'll be pretty cool,

122
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 1: especially go go down to the Buccaneer Stadium. I guess

123
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: we won't be going to the Panthers stadium, but um,

124
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,360
Speaker 1: that'll be cool to go down to Tampa game. I mean,

125
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,080
Speaker 1: and let's not get it twisted, to go down there

126
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,960
Speaker 1: with TV twelve down there, that'll be fun. Yeah, no doubt,

127
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:28,839
Speaker 1: you're right. Yeah, Panthers are coming to so far, so

128
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 1: it would just be be in Tampa. Weeks five to eight,

129
00:06:33,560 --> 00:06:35,919
Speaker 1: the second quarter of the season kicks off of the

130
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 1: band at the st Monday and Night football. You're coming

131
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 1: home for the Jets at the Dolphins and versus the Jaguars,

132
00:06:43,600 --> 00:06:46,719
Speaker 1: two teams that you guys played and beat last year. Isaac.

133
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,200
Speaker 1: What do you think, Well, you said it, I'm juiced

134
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:53,680
Speaker 1: up about just starting off that second quarter going to

135
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: the Saints. You know, like growing up into the Falcons territory,

136
00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 1: the Saints Falcons game was always a big one and

137
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:03,800
Speaker 1: I remember watching it always thinking how cool would be

138
00:07:03,839 --> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: to even go to a game at the stadium. Uh,

139
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 1: and then now to be able to play to be unreal. Yeah,

140
00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 1: what do you think badge. You know, I think I look,

141
00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:18,200
Speaker 1: I look specifically at the date of that the Miami game,

142
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,800
Speaker 1: that that's an away game, right, yeah, at Miami again. Uh.

143
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,880
Speaker 1: You know you look at that date, October twenty fifth,

144
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:28,880
Speaker 1: it's gonna be primetime weather. I think that's right as uh.

145
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,760
Speaker 1: You know, it's starting to look cool down. Uh. And

146
00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: same thing with Jacksonville, but the cool one, like you said,

147
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:37,239
Speaker 1: you brought it up, you stopped started with a Monday

148
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: night game in uh in New Orleans. The place is

149
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:46,160
Speaker 1: gonna be buzzing. It's gonna be and it's it's gonna

150
00:07:46,200 --> 00:07:49,480
Speaker 1: be one of those nationally Monday night everybody's watching. It's

151
00:07:49,520 --> 00:07:51,880
Speaker 1: gonna be a good one. Haley. He told me this offline.

152
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:56,040
Speaker 1: Brady and Breeze, two Hall of Fame quarterbacks back to

153
00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,559
Speaker 1: back weeks four or five. That's that stood out as well,

154
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: back to back back back road games. Yeah. I mean,

155
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:04,679
Speaker 1: when you face quarterbacks like that, that certainly will stand

156
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: out bad. You mentioned that weather on October twenty fifth.

157
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,320
Speaker 1: Is weather an environment sort of one of the first

158
00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: things you look at when the schedule comes out, like

159
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: are you in a dome? Is it going to be cold?

160
00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 1: In December? Or January. What do you what do you

161
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:18,160
Speaker 1: kind of thinking when it first comes down. I mean,

162
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:20,080
Speaker 1: you gotta think, you know, we're lucky enough we play

163
00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:24,000
Speaker 1: in southern California and there's you know, Southeast Florida teams.

164
00:08:24,880 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 1: But for the most part, when you're looking at later

165
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,360
Speaker 1: in the day, later in the year games, if it's

166
00:08:29,400 --> 00:08:31,000
Speaker 1: not a home game, you gotta expect it's going to

167
00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,920
Speaker 1: be cold. But I think with those Florida teams, you

168
00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:36,439
Speaker 1: gotta make sure you don't get them too early or

169
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:39,160
Speaker 1: it's just gonna be so hot that you know, hydration

170
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,440
Speaker 1: comes into play and it's something that they're totally used

171
00:08:41,440 --> 00:08:45,120
Speaker 1: to with the humidity and all that. So it's definitely

172
00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:46,960
Speaker 1: important to look at if there's a dome, if it's

173
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 1: gonna be outside, what you can think about with the

174
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,959
Speaker 1: wind and all that kind of plays into it. But

175
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:53,200
Speaker 1: you don't get a real feel until you're actually there.

176
00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:56,640
Speaker 1: All right, Week ten is the buy. I think the

177
00:08:56,760 --> 00:08:58,360
Speaker 1: desk great. It's right in the middle of the season

178
00:08:58,480 --> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: and you guys aren't on the road for more than

179
00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:02,200
Speaker 1: two weeks at a time. Let's just buzz through this

180
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,840
Speaker 1: third quarter of the year. Versus the Raiders at home

181
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 1: then at Broncos, which is going to be spicy this year,

182
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:13,599
Speaker 1: especially at Bills and versus the Patriots. Um, that's a

183
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:18,679
Speaker 1: that's gonna be a a pivotal stretch for you guys, no doubt. Yeah.

184
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:22,160
Speaker 1: I mean I'm just to again start off with the

185
00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:25,360
Speaker 1: first game of Week three. I'm super excited to go

186
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:28,080
Speaker 1: out to Vegas and play in their stadium. Oh wait,

187
00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 1: that's a home game. I keep getting mixed up that

188
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:37,439
Speaker 1: you're getting mixed up. But no that like you said, Chris,

189
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: it'll be interesting because some of these teams have mixed

190
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,520
Speaker 1: up their rosters a little bit. Um, and I think

191
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: both you know, the Raiders and the Broncos. Just talking

192
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 1: about people in our division, it'll be interesting to play them,

193
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:54,280
Speaker 1: especially just to start off that that quarter three. Yeah,

194
00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,240
Speaker 1: I think. I think one that you guys is with

195
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: bye week being at Week ten, it's you know, you

196
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: can get on a couple of rolls with that ten

197
00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:03,720
Speaker 1: week span and then you get a nice one and

198
00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:05,840
Speaker 1: then you get to roll right into those last six

199
00:10:05,880 --> 00:10:10,439
Speaker 1: games of the year. So it's I think it's perfect

200
00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: schedule you look at it. You go two back to

201
00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,560
Speaker 1: back with a bye week in between divisional games. And

202
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:20,360
Speaker 1: then you go to AFC East teams with the Bills

203
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 1: and the Patriots, and you know, right now, you know

204
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,280
Speaker 1: they're they're talking about how the Bills are the favorite

205
00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:27,800
Speaker 1: of the AFC East. So that one's intriguing, and it's

206
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:31,360
Speaker 1: what that one's at Buffalo. It looks like, Yeah, which

207
00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: is which is a great fan base, a tough place

208
00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,400
Speaker 1: to play in late November. But it could be a

209
00:10:36,480 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: little chilly, could be a little chilli. A couple of

210
00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 1: years ago, Elliott, and it was not chill. It was

211
00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 1: not high in September. Um the back half the last

212
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,319
Speaker 1: four games. And I mentioned this at the top. Guys,

213
00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 1: you're on the West Coast for the entire month of December,

214
00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: which I think is huge. Um, you close it out

215
00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,400
Speaker 1: Falcons at Raiders Thursday night football versus the bron goes

216
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,839
Speaker 1: and then simmer to the last year at Arrowhead to

217
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 1: close out the twenty twenty season. A great opportunity to

218
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: make a statement, especially with three divisional opponents to close

219
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: the season. Yeah, I mean, I'll tell you what, just

220
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,320
Speaker 1: to start that quarter, I'm hyped to play the Falcons

221
00:11:17,320 --> 00:11:20,880
Speaker 1: because that's kind of my hometown team. But I think

222
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,600
Speaker 1: you're right Chris, It's like, what better way to end

223
00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:27,400
Speaker 1: the season than playing against the Chiefs. I mean, it's like,

224
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: you want that game to be a huge game because

225
00:11:30,240 --> 00:11:31,760
Speaker 1: you want it to matter for where you're at in

226
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:34,600
Speaker 1: the division. And it should because I mean we should

227
00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:36,360
Speaker 1: we should do well and they should do well. But

228
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just such a great way to end

229
00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:41,720
Speaker 1: the season playing against them. Yeah, you know, and it's

230
00:11:41,760 --> 00:11:45,320
Speaker 1: funny to see all the divisional games backloaded. And I've

231
00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 1: heard that it might have been if they have to

232
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,000
Speaker 1: compress the season, if there's a later start too. I

233
00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,840
Speaker 1: heard that's maybe why they were doing that. But the

234
00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: biggest thing that I noticed, and you know, we already

235
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,600
Speaker 1: kind of talked about it, but January third in Kansas City,

236
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:02,840
Speaker 1: talk about it's a cold a little Yeah, there may

237
00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:06,079
Speaker 1: be precipitation there when you nail when you nail a

238
00:12:06,160 --> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: sixty five yarder to win it. That just going going

239
00:12:08,679 --> 00:12:11,000
Speaker 1: off of what Isaac's was saying. With the divisional games

240
00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,400
Speaker 1: being all backloaded, you know, there's a little extra emphasis.

241
00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:16,520
Speaker 1: You know, we take every game seriously, but there's a

242
00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: little more extra extra emphasis and winning those divisional games

243
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 1: so you get three in a row to end the season.

244
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:24,360
Speaker 1: You know that could you know, make or break it

245
00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 1: right there. And you're talking about Chris, like you said,

246
00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 1: with the bye week, uh in court in the third

247
00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,679
Speaker 1: quarter of the season, you're gonna have We're gonna have

248
00:12:32,720 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: such a good perspective of where we're at and what

249
00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,520
Speaker 1: we need to do going into the end of the season.

250
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: And like bat said, we're just lucky to have three

251
00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,520
Speaker 1: divisional games in a row. I mean, you're gonna be

252
00:12:44,120 --> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: You're gonna be talking about it on December, you know, fourteenth, Like,

253
00:12:48,360 --> 00:12:50,600
Speaker 1: here's what we need to do to finish this season

254
00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,520
Speaker 1: out well and get where we want to go. And

255
00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,280
Speaker 1: one of those is Vegas. You get to talk about

256
00:12:56,360 --> 00:12:59,520
Speaker 1: Vegas right now. I can talk about Vegas. Yeah, I'm

257
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: duced to go out there. I mean, this is such

258
00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,160
Speaker 1: a cool time in the NFL because you know, there's

259
00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:07,320
Speaker 1: been a lot of changes. Like I mentioned earlier, you

260
00:13:07,320 --> 00:13:09,680
Speaker 1: talk about Tom Brady going to the Bucks. Nobody would

261
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: have guessed that would have happened a few years ago.

262
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: And then you talk about all the new stadiums that

263
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,120
Speaker 1: are being built and kind of the changes. From that perspective,

264
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: I'm juiced up to be able to be able to

265
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:22,000
Speaker 1: go out to Vegas and play in that. I mean,

266
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:26,520
Speaker 1: it's gonna be a crazy environment. Guys, before we let

267
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:30,640
Speaker 1: you go again back by popular demand, I hope the

268

273
00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:49,320

00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,240
Speaker 1: do it with the shelter in home or shelter in

275
