I 18 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 4: guess I gotta keep it right. 19 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 3: I feel that. 20 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:49,319 Speaker 4: But big big week coming up here, Big big win 21 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 4: last week. 22 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, big win last week twenty four to twenty your 23 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 3: Seattle Seahawks take down with the second or first at 24 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 3: the time best defense in the league. And they got 25 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 3: it done. Me, there are some things that we wanted 26 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,400 Speaker 3: to see last week, right, I know we were sitting 27 00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:05,000 Speaker 3: here before the show talking about the red zone. Before 28 00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:07,119 Speaker 3: last week, I believe the Hawks were one in eight 29 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,440 Speaker 3: scoring touchdowns trips in the red zone. If you want 30 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:11,840 Speaker 3: to be a good football team, you got to be 31 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,080 Speaker 3: able to get inside the twenty and get her done. 32 00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:17,160 Speaker 3: We talked about Geno a little bit, JSN, who we're 33 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,160 Speaker 3: gonna see later. He's gonna come here and visit you 34 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,959 Speaker 3: guys and hopefully signed some autographs. He has his second 35 00:01:21,959 --> 00:01:24,880 Speaker 3: week in a row with a touchdown. Jake Bobo's doing 36 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 3: this thing. It's like the veterans are holding it down, 37 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:29,760 Speaker 3: but then we're getting these rookies that popping it and 38 00:01:29,800 --> 00:01:30,600 Speaker 3: doing their thing too. 39 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 4: Yeah, a lot of rookies. I mean offensive line, we 40 00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 4: got Bradford, you know. On the defensive side, obviously we 41 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,680 Speaker 4: got Witherspoon. And these guys aren't just on the field. 42 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,800 Speaker 4: I mean they're they're making plays. They're impactful. I thought 43 00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,680 Speaker 4: last week was and I'm really excited about this week too, 44 00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 4: because I think this week we go on the road 45 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 4: and beat Baltimore. I'm all in. Yeah, as a Super 46 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 4: Bowl contending team, and last week kind of flipped me, 47 00:01:57,760 --> 00:02:00,920 Speaker 4: and mainly because that defense that we went up against Cleveland, 48 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 4: they were for real and they were good against run defense. 49 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,160 Speaker 4: They were great at putting pressure on the quarterback, and 50 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 4: I thought we handled it. I thought, I don't want 51 00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:12,440 Speaker 4: to say we dominated the game, but we won both 52 00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 4: sides of the football in that game. So, you know, 53 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,280 Speaker 4: a lot of great things. I think Geno's finally starting 54 00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,160 Speaker 4: to get a little more comfortable and that, hey, we 55 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:22,240 Speaker 4: don't have to force things, you know, it just keeps 56 00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:25,320 Speaker 4: spreading it around. The big one obviously going into last 57 00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 4: week was we just weren't great in the red zone. 58 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 4: But we did some good things last week also. But yeah, 59 00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 4: we got a couple of good we got jsn is 60 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,720 Speaker 4: going to be here at seven point thirty. We will 61 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:37,600 Speaker 4: have some good conversation there and what he's doing. 62 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we also got to see Jason Peters right, 63 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 3: he joined that offensive line. The old man in football, 64 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,480 Speaker 3: young man in life. Right, forty one years old. They 65 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 3: call you the old man in the locker room, but 66 00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 3: in life he's still good to go. So it was 67 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 3: nice to seeing him get out there and how he 68 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,720 Speaker 3: impacts this offensive line. There's been a lot of movement 69 00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,760 Speaker 3: on this offensive line. You mentioned Anthony Bradford. You pointed 70 00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 3: out some really good plays that he had against the 71 00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 3: Cincinnati Bengals and then against the Cleveland Browns. How important 72 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:06,679 Speaker 3: is this line, man? I mean, it's all about the 73 00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 3: big boys in the trenches, right yeah. 74 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 4: I'm really comfortable with what we have up the middle 75 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 4: right now. I mean you've got Lewis and Evans and 76 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 4: then Bradford and Bradford so strong. He's the rookie out 77 00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,600 Speaker 4: of LSU for us. And I'm telling you, guys, when 78 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,720 Speaker 4: he extends his hands on somebody, he shoves that defensive 79 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:28,640 Speaker 4: lineman three hundred and twenty pound guys and more usually 80 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 4: over two gaps. I think he's going to be a 81 00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 4: really good football player. But you know the old At 82 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 4: the end of the day, the real story is what 83 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,560 Speaker 4: this defense is doing. It is, man, and it's it's 84 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 4: now the last four games, or since Week four, some 85 00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 4: of those things have come out or basically the number 86 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 4: one defense in the NFL, both in yards, yards per attempt, 87 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 4: I believe points allowed. If you actually go into this 88 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 4: game since Week four, Baltimore and Seattle are really one 89 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,840 Speaker 4: and two. So this is about and we talked about 90 00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:03,840 Speaker 4: last week going into this game, Seahawks had to outplay 91 00:04:03,880 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 4: Cleveland's defense, and they did. And it's the first time 92 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 4: I felt probably five maybe six years, we've got three 93 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 4: tiers of really good football players in the secondary. I 94 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 4: don't see a weakness. I mean, I just see strengths 95 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:24,120 Speaker 4: and options for you know what, we can call our 96 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 4: linebackers to me, Bobby Wagner's been rejuvenated, whatever that is. 97 00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:31,040 Speaker 4: And it might be because of Jordan Brooks is playing 98 00:04:31,240 --> 00:04:33,839 Speaker 4: so well. I mean, he is playing at a Pro Bowl, 99 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:36,600 Speaker 4: He's playing at an all pro level. I just hope 100 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 4: he gets the votes. I hope this has become a 101 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 4: popularity contents. He gets rewarded for his play. And the 102 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 4: defensive line and we've added and we'll talk about that too, 103 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:48,200 Speaker 4: our defensive line. What we've done. We've gone from this big, huge, 104 00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 4: three hundred and forty fifty pound guys to really quit 105 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:54,640 Speaker 4: guys who are disruptive and now we got pressure on 106 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,599 Speaker 4: the edge. This is a really good defense and it 107 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,200 Speaker 4: feels that we're just getting started. 108 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm glad you brought up the defensive line because 109 00:05:03,920 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 3: obviously there's a move made this week. You signed Leonard 110 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 3: Williams from the New York Football Giants. I thought it 111 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,599 Speaker 3: was a great move. The Giants pick up the bulk 112 00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 3: of his contract. They didn't pay a lot for him. 113 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,039 Speaker 3: They didn't give up a second round pick and a 114 00:05:16,040 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: fifth round pick if he does not sign with the Seahawks. 115 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 3: I believe they get a third round pick after this year. 116 00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:23,440 Speaker 3: And then there was a move made by the forty 117 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 3: nine ers as well. Chase Young goes to the forty 118 00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:27,560 Speaker 3: nine ers and I got people hitting me up. I'm 119 00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 3: sure they hit you up to the live. Why didn't 120 00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:31,360 Speaker 3: you go after Chase Young? I go, well, there are 121 00:05:31,360 --> 00:05:34,599 Speaker 3: some things behind the scenes that really affected that. But 122 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: I like the deal for the Seahawks because you get 123 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,160 Speaker 3: a guy that fits your need right now. And what 124 00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:45,320 Speaker 3: does Leonard do. He brings physicality to that interior defensive line. 125 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 3: He's a guy that can take on the double teams. 126 00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:50,040 Speaker 3: And it's such a thankless position when you're playing that 127 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 3: one in that three tech you're inside because you're going 128 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 3: to affect the game that to the untrained eye, people 129 00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 3: aren't going to see. So when you break down Williams 130 00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,640 Speaker 3: and your breakdown that Chase Young situation. What do you see? 131 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 3: What can you tell the people? 132 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 4: Moyer, Yeah, so couple things to this, because I think 133 00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:09,760 Speaker 4: we're starting to get out. So first of all, the 134 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 4: Seahawks from a salary cap standpoint, really had no money, 135 00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:15,840 Speaker 4: and so why did this trade happen? Well, and why 136 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 4: do we have to give up a second and a 137 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 4: fifth round pick? As he mentioned, there's a compensatory pick 138 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 4: when you lose a free agent, and it depends on 139 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 4: how much playing time and more importantly, how much money 140 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:30,479 Speaker 4: they get as a free agent next year. So let's 141 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 4: just say we lose Leonard Williams next year more than 142 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,360 Speaker 4: you get between a third and seventh round pick, So 143 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:39,800 Speaker 4: we'll get someone there. Let's say it's a fifth round pick. 144 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 4: That's kind of what the Giants were saying we would 145 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,239 Speaker 4: have gotten even if we didn't trade him this year. 146 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,039 Speaker 4: So we said, fine, we'll give that to you. We 147 00:06:48,080 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 4: don't have any money, and so normally we might have 148 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 4: given up a third or a fourth round pick, but 149 00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:57,039 Speaker 4: data said, we will pay the ten eleven million whatever 150 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 4: is left on his contract this year that you guys 151 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 4: can't afford, but you're gonna have to give up a 152 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:04,000 Speaker 4: little bit more. So we gave up a second round pick. 153 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,960 Speaker 4: Why did we do that? Because we got Denver's third 154 00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 4: round pick that and that would be another thing, is 155 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 4: one is our second round pick's probably gonna be closer 156 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 4: to a third round pick because of the success I 157 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: think we're gonna have. We got Denver's third round pick 158 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 4: that we did a late trade last year in the draft, 159 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 4: so kind of we you know, a wash on that. 160 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,120 Speaker 4: Now let's talk about Chase Young. Everybody goes, oh, why 161 00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 4: wouldn't you get Chase Young? Well, first of all, we 162 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,040 Speaker 4: couldn't afford him. You know, for forty nine ers are 163 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 4: going to pay his contract. They gave up a third 164 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 4: I believe. The other thing is, you know, Chase Young's 165 00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:41,760 Speaker 4: two hundred and sixty five pounds. He's more of an 166 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,760 Speaker 4: edge rusher. We got plenty of edge rushers right now. 167 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 4: Don't get me wrong. I would love to have Chase Syng. 168 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,440 Speaker 4: But he's got a bad knee. There's some concerns on that. 169 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,440 Speaker 4: We just that wasn't a need. Now it's going to 170 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 4: bring it back. 171 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:53,200 Speaker 5: Now. 172 00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 4: Why Leonard Williams, Well, when he's a pro bowler, he 173 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 4: was a very high draft pick. He's under twenty, he's 174 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:03,200 Speaker 4: under thirty's twenty nine years old, and he's got size. 175 00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 4: He's sixty four, sixty five, he's almost three hundred pounds, 176 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: about two hundred and ninety pounds. Great against the run, 177 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:12,680 Speaker 4: great against the pass, and we needed depth interior more 178 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 4: than we needed on the edge. So for us, home 179 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:18,520 Speaker 4: run pick, and I think more importantly for you as fans, 180 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,559 Speaker 4: Seahawks are all in. They believe this is a Super 181 00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:24,600 Speaker 4: Bowl contending team. We're gonna find out this weekend and 182 00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 4: then really over the next four or five weeks. We've 183 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 4: got the forty nine ers twice, we got Philadelphia, we 184 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,280 Speaker 4: got Baltimore, we got a tough stretch, and they all 185 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 4: have great offensive lines. We needed somebody to help solidify that. 186 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 4: And my favorite people over a thirty second Street. Let's 187 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 4: go with my old neighbors. 188 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 3: All right, got it.

So what is all said and done? 191 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,400 Speaker 3: The best move for the Seahawks. I couldn't be more 192 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:57,600 Speaker 3: excited about it. I want to see what he does 193 00:08:57,920 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 3: when he hits the field this weekend, against the to 194 00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 3: More Ravens.

Uncle's covered all of the branches, and Man, 217 00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 3: you decided to take a different route. Man, was was 218 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,920 Speaker 3: Army always something that you wanted to do or did 219 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:10,960 Speaker 3: Was that the only offer that you have, Like walk 220 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: us through your decision to go to the Army institution 221 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 3: and play some ball. 222 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:19,320 Speaker 2: Yeah. So I didn't have as extensive a military family, 223 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,080 Speaker 2: but both my grandpas were a huge inspiration to me, 224 00:10:22,200 --> 00:10:25,160 Speaker 2: and they both served in the Army way back in 225 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 2: the day. And so when I was going through recruitment 226 00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 2: and you know, trying to find what place fit me 227 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 2: best in terms of where to go to college, I 228 00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:37,880 Speaker 2: was really intrigued by all the academies, to be honest, 229 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: but Army definitely showed the most interest. And when it 230 00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,240 Speaker 2: came down to it, I really loved my visit out there. 231 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: I really loved everything they had to offer, and I 232 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 2: was I was, you know, very committed to the military 233 00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,000 Speaker 2: life that would come post academy. And so I was 234 00:10:54,080 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: all on board from from being recruited. I mean, I 235 00:10:56,440 --> 00:10:59,640 Speaker 2: had some other schools, nothing crazy, no, no really big 236 00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,439 Speaker 2: offers out there, and I felt like it was a 237 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,960 Speaker 2: great opportunity to play solid Division one football, get a 238 00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,400 Speaker 2: great education, and then you know, have a lot of 239 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 2: military life afterwards. 240 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,240 Speaker 4: Really excited to have you on. I got so many 241 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 4: questions for you, John, But first of all, I just 242 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,640 Speaker 4: want to congratulate you. Earlier this week, the Seahawks announced 243 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 4: John Radigan as her twenty twenty three Salute to Service 244 00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:26,040 Speaker 4: Award nominee. By the way, voting goes through November, So 245 00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 4: congratulations on that. Obviously. Yes, we got about eight hundred 246 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,840 Speaker 4: people here cheering you on right now. John. But you know, look, 247 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 4: we Mike and I both played obviously in college and 248 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,120 Speaker 4: in the NFL. And when I was at Arizona State, 249 00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:45,760 Speaker 4: it was like, yeah, take three classes, but mostly be 250 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:49,920 Speaker 4: freed up for practice because we used to change practice times. 251 00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 4: But I got to believe it was a cadet there. 252 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:55,600 Speaker 4: You guys had a very different schedule. Would you mind 253 00:11:55,640 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 4: just sharing what the life was like when you were 254 00:11:58,440 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 4: going to college and trying to mix all the duties 255 00:12:02,040 --> 00:12:04,040 Speaker 4: you had as well as with practice. Just give me 256 00:12:04,080 --> 00:12:05,960 Speaker 4: a day in the life of a cadet. 257 00:12:07,800 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I guess to start off, I'll say it 258 00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 2: was certainly different than everybody else I'm in the locker 259 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 2: room with now. It was it was academy lights. I 260 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,560 Speaker 2: mean you got to wake up, you know, every morning 261 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,360 Speaker 2: and get all your stuff done. You got to make 262 00:12:22,400 --> 00:12:26,440 Speaker 2: your bed and put on your uniform, look look, have 263 00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 2: good appearance every day, and so you would have to 264 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 2: wake up by at least six in the morning in 265 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:34,000 Speaker 2: order to get all that done and get out there 266 00:12:34,080 --> 00:12:37,719 Speaker 2: for pormation. That would lead right into breakfast, and from 267 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:41,440 Speaker 2: breakfast you go right to class. So you know football 268 00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 2: in the military, they kind of they put all the 269 00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 2: football stuff in the afternoon, so we would go to 270 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:48,200 Speaker 2: class in the morning and that would cover everything up 271 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 2: until around one pm. And as soon as everybody was 272 00:12:51,559 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: done with all their academics, we would take a bus 273 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,079 Speaker 2: or you could walk if you wanted to walk uphill 274 00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 2: to the football facilities and that would be our whole afternoon. 275 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: So we were pretty much getting after from I would 276 00:13:04,679 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 2: say seven in the morning when people might have had 277 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:14,840 Speaker 2: a class starting until two. Academically and from football, we'd 278 00:13:14,840 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 2: be there from you know, anywhere from two to six, 279 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: two to seven sometimes middle of the season, those late 280 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 2: those late nights, those late practices, you don't get back 281 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:26,880 Speaker 2: down to your room until eight pm. So you really 282 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:31,040 Speaker 2: just had a full day of work every single day 283 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 2: and that's the bottom line. There was just a lot 284 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 2: to it. But me and all my friends that I 285 00:13:38,160 --> 00:13:40,079 Speaker 2: went to school with and everybody that's still there right 286 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:44,120 Speaker 2: now and came way before me, you know, everybody is 287 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,120 Speaker 2: willing to do that, and it's a truly incredible experience. 288 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, John, it sounds like being in that institution really 289 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 3: helped mold who you are. 290 00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 4: Right. 291 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 3: I don't know where I would be with a football 292 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 3: tell me discipline, how to be on time, how to prepare, 293 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:01,680 Speaker 3: But I felt like, thank you guys, your preparation was 294 00:14:01,760 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 3: at a different level. What it being in that environment 295 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: do for you as a football player and as a man. 296 00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 2: I think it really helped me grow up, maybe four 297 00:14:11,559 --> 00:14:14,839 Speaker 2: years earlier than I normally would have. I always kind 298 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,960 Speaker 2: of thought about things from that perspective. While I was 299 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 2: at West Point. It was you had to get ready 300 00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 2: in the morning, you had to look presentable, You had 301 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 2: to just kind of do everything that most people working 302 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:27,760 Speaker 2: a nine to five job are doing. But on top 303 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 2: of that, you know, we were still playing division on 304 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 2: football and so just kind of juggling everything and include 305 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 2: the rigorous academics. It was really just being able to 306 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:43,680 Speaker 2: juggle everything, being able to learn time management and as 307 00:14:43,720 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 2: the years went on, get better at that and ultimately 308 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 2: maturing yourself to being able to understand how you go 309 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:53,120 Speaker 2: about all that right. It might, it might not. You 310 00:14:53,160 --> 00:14:55,120 Speaker 2: might have a good day and think, oh, I'm not 311 00:14:55,160 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: going to be able to do this another week. But 312 00:14:57,760 --> 00:15:01,120 Speaker 2: it's getting over that and just proving yourself constantly that 313 00:15:01,200 --> 00:15:04,200 Speaker 2: you are getting better, you're growing and this is only 314 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 2: making you a stronger person that ultimately gets you through. 315 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:10,800 Speaker 2: So I would say, you know time management and just 316 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 2: it really it really kind of makes you mature as 317 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:16,600 Speaker 2: fast as you possibly can, because that's the only way 318 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,440 Speaker 2: you start to feel comfortable and realizing that you're growing 319 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:21,760 Speaker 2: as you get older. 320 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 4: At the academy, there was a time if you were 321 00:15:25,280 --> 00:15:28,280 Speaker 4: you know, Army, Navy, Air Force, and you were playing 322 00:15:28,320 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 4: college sports, you know, you really didn't have an opportunity 323 00:15:31,240 --> 00:15:35,000 Speaker 4: to go to professional sports. But that changed. I don't 324 00:15:35,000 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 4: know that much about it. I don't think the people 325 00:15:36,800 --> 00:15:39,160 Speaker 4: here and the listeners probably know that much. But what 326 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 4: was the process you needed to go through to obtain 327 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 4: special approver approval to defer the service and pursue this 328 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 4: NFL dream of yours. 329 00:15:48,960 --> 00:15:52,680 Speaker 2: So I had to meet with some Army lawyers and 330 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 2: go over a lot of different paperwork, but ultimately and 331 00:15:57,280 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 2: the Secretary of a friends he will approve packet every 332 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:04,920 Speaker 2: year that allows us to stay playing professional sports. And 333 00:16:05,080 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 2: it had gone back and forth for the longest time, 334 00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:10,200 Speaker 2: and it still kind of is. You know, I came 335 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:15,200 Speaker 2: out at a favorable time for athletes to where like 336 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: I said, they will still annually review a packet up 337 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 2: for us, and uh, you know, accept accept the fact 338 00:16:23,160 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: that we're playing in professional sports and we're representing from 339 00:16:25,840 --> 00:16:30,320 Speaker 2: that end. And that's kind of how the policy was 340 00:16:30,360 --> 00:16:32,360 Speaker 2: when I was coming out. I believe they're going back 341 00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: to changing it a different way, and so it's kind 342 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 2: of back and forth like it always has been. But 343 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 2: as long as we get the approval from the Secretary 344 00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:43,000 Speaker 2: of Defense and we you know, hold up our end 345 00:16:43,040 --> 00:16:45,640 Speaker 2: of the bargain, we represent as best we can. We 346 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:50,200 Speaker 2: you know, provide for the military community and the communities 347 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: that our teams represent. That's really that's that's the most 348 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:55,320 Speaker 2: they could ask for. 349 00:16:56,200 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 4: Do you have additional commitments in the future. 350 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:04,439 Speaker 2: I still have five years of service post playing career, 351 00:17:04,680 --> 00:17:08,480 Speaker 2: so whether that comes as it would post graduation. Where 352 00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:12,720 Speaker 2: I branch the branch that I had my last year 353 00:17:12,760 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 2: at the academy, or I have to transition to a 354 00:17:16,040 --> 00:17:21,240 Speaker 2: different type of role because of like physical limitations depending 355 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,959 Speaker 2: on the timeframe, I do still have five years of service. 356 00:17:25,720 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 4: How do you feel about that? And again, I don't 357 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 4: know what that means. I mean, you probably don't know 358 00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:32,159 Speaker 4: what that means. Hopefully you have a ten year career 359 00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 4: in the NFL. 360 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,639 Speaker 2: Right, I think that's the cool part, honestly, is that 361 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:40,800 Speaker 2: it gives us the flexibility to fully focus and just 362 00:17:40,840 --> 00:17:45,040 Speaker 2: be one hundred percent committed to football or soccer, hockey, 363 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,639 Speaker 2: whatever sport you know that we played and excelled in 364 00:17:48,680 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 2: at the academies. It let us kind of make the 365 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,000 Speaker 2: most of our careers. And I feel good because once 366 00:17:54,040 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 2: it's over with, I'll be able to serve for five years. 367 00:17:57,960 --> 00:17:59,720 Speaker 2: I'll have a job for five years. I'll be able 368 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,240 Speaker 2: to get it back for five years. And ultimately that's 369 00:18:03,280 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 2: why school was free for me in college. Right when 370 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:08,560 Speaker 2: everybody that goes to the academy is that's their that's 371 00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,320 Speaker 2: their payment is five years of service. So it only 372 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 2: it feels right to be honest that I still would 373 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:18,560 Speaker 2: have to hold up my end of the Bargain Johnson. 374 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:21,199 Speaker 3: Now you're you're in the NFL. And I would assume 375 00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 3: when you went to Army you planned on serving your 376 00:18:25,880 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 3: country after you were done playing ball over there, but 377 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 3: then you become a All American your senior year. Was 378 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:34,000 Speaker 3: that when you realize, like, hey, man, I might want 379 00:18:34,040 --> 00:18:36,440 Speaker 3: to try this NFL thing, or was that always something 380 00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 3: that you wanted to do and you're hoping and play 381 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 3: good enough to get that opportunity. 382 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,520 Speaker 2: It really came about during my senior year. I had always, 383 00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,480 Speaker 2: since since being a little kid, you know, if I'm 384 00:18:48,480 --> 00:18:51,119 Speaker 2: playing football, if I'm still in the prime of my 385 00:18:51,160 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 2: football career, I want to play in the NFL. And 386 00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:57,440 Speaker 2: so I never let that leave the back of my mind. 387 00:18:57,480 --> 00:18:59,920 Speaker 2: But I was so focused on other things at the academy. 388 00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,119 Speaker 2: I was really just kind of more focused on developing 389 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: as a person, and thankfully that paid off, and by 390 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 2: the time I got to my senior year, things were 391 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:12,439 Speaker 2: really you know, going well, from from academics to the 392 00:19:12,440 --> 00:19:16,639 Speaker 2: military side of things to certainly my football career. And 393 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:19,679 Speaker 2: so I was able to just take advantage of the 394 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:24,480 Speaker 2: fact that that football had really turned out to be 395 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:27,320 Speaker 2: favor a favorable thing for me. There because you know, 396 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:30,320 Speaker 2: when I was younger, I did struggle in football. I 397 00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:35,160 Speaker 2: didn't have some crazy All American career for four years there. 398 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,560 Speaker 2: It really only came about my senior year. And then 399 00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: during the course of my senior year, I had scouts 400 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,119 Speaker 2: reaching out and that was when I realized that the 401 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:47,479 Speaker 2: NFL was a legit possibility, and so I kind of 402 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 2: transitioned my mind to really focus on that and be 403 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:55,439 Speaker 2: committed to kind of using this platform that I have. 404 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,640 Speaker 2: Because now three years later, I couldn't be any more 405 00:19:57,680 --> 00:20:00,679 Speaker 2: grateful and and it's certainly been a wild ride, but 406 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 2: I'm very thankful. 407 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:06,159 Speaker 4: Well, we're pretty thankful and blessed you're here as well. Okay, 408 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:09,400 Speaker 4: we do something every year, we talk about the greatest 409 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,360 Speaker 4: rivalries in sports, and then it's all over the board. 410 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,040 Speaker 4: It's like Boston and the Lakers. Some you know, the 411 00:20:15,080 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 4: college guys, it's Alabama and Auburn. For those who it's 412 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 4: the University of Washington and Oregon, which I don't really 413 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 4: get that one, but I've argued it's not even close. 414 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 4: It's Army Navy because it does not matter. It's the 415 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,440 Speaker 4: only rivalry. It truly doesn't matter. The records. People are 416 00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 4: watching that, can you at all describe or just give 417 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 4: us what that week's like and what that rivalry is 418 00:20:39,480 --> 00:20:40,000 Speaker 4: all about. 419 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,119 Speaker 2: Yeah, for Army, we had we always had two weeks 420 00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 2: going into it, so they're big weeks at the Academy. 421 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:49,800 Speaker 2: There's a lot of hype around it, you know, there's 422 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 2: a lot of pride that just kind of it's not 423 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:58,760 Speaker 2: just the football team, that's everybody involved. It's a huge rivalry. 424 00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 2: So along with that comes all the fun and the 425 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:05,439 Speaker 2: festive type of things that schools can get into. And 426 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,080 Speaker 2: so it means a lot. It means a lot to 427 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 2: the football team because we have something to prove and 428 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: we want to have bragging rights and we want to 429 00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 2: be you know, we're competitive, so we want to win. 430 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 2: And it means a lot to the whole school because 431 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,280 Speaker 2: everybody's going to be there and ultimately everybody wants to 432 00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:25,520 Speaker 2: brag rights and everybody wants to see their their team 433 00:21:25,560 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 2: that they support win. But the coolest part is that 434 00:21:28,920 --> 00:21:31,719 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, whoever wins, whoever loses, 435 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:34,640 Speaker 2: we're all We're all in this together. We're all going 436 00:21:34,680 --> 00:21:37,040 Speaker 2: through a very similar life, we're all going through a 437 00:21:37,160 --> 00:21:42,160 Speaker 2: very similar schedule, We're all fighting through these tough engineering 438 00:21:42,200 --> 00:21:44,080 Speaker 2: classes that we didn't know we had to take, but 439 00:21:44,119 --> 00:21:47,560 Speaker 2: we ended up having to take. So it's just it's 440 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 2: just really cool because, to be honest, it's a big 441 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,159 Speaker 2: rivalry and it definitely has that feel to it. We're 442 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:56,480 Speaker 2: against one another, but ultimately we know that we're all 443 00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 2: together and it's just a cool representation of the military. 444 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 3: Well, John, Man, we appreciate your time on this Thursday, 445 00:22:03,520 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 3: and we appreciate your intentions going into Army and the 446 00:22:06,560 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 3: potential of what you have to do after you're done 447 00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:11,919 Speaker 3: playing this game.

Now, we got to start in the bay. 466 00:23:06,400 --> 00:23:08,520 Speaker 3: It's going down in the bay right now. Man, you 467 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 3: got brock Party in the gang losing three in a row. 468 00:23:12,359 --> 00:23:14,800 Speaker 3: I was waiting for this moment for brock Purty because 469 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:17,680 Speaker 3: everything was nice. You got the best defense in the league, 470 00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:21,240 Speaker 3: Deebo Samuel's ball and Christian McCaffrey seventeen games in a 471 00:23:21,320 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 3: row with a touchdown, Brandon Auk, who's the best receiver 472 00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:26,679 Speaker 3: on that team. But you got Deebo Samuel, who's a 473 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,879 Speaker 3: great athlete. And then they hit a bump in a row, 474 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 3: and then I'm looking at brock Perty I'm saying, all right, 475 00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:34,480 Speaker 3: mister irrelevant, this is something you have not experienced before 476 00:23:34,520 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 3: on this level. How are you going to bounce back now? 477 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 3: I'm not ready to say brock Purty's done. He can't 478 00:23:39,200 --> 00:23:41,880 Speaker 3: play in this league. But it makes me interested because 479 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:44,160 Speaker 3: we're in first place in MC West right now, thankful 480 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:47,640 Speaker 3: for thankfully because we have the forty nine ers drop 481 00:23:47,680 --> 00:23:49,360 Speaker 3: three in a row. When you look at the Niners 482 00:23:49,400 --> 00:23:52,240 Speaker 3: right now, how close are we have we passed them up? 483 00:23:52,280 --> 00:23:54,000 Speaker 3: I know we're first in the West, but you know 484 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,959 Speaker 3: how this game is matchups, personnel, All that stuff matters. 485 00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 3: Is what are your thoughts in the forty nine ers. 486 00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 4: Well, it's been good. I mean when they were five 487 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,239 Speaker 4: and zero, we went, uh oh, you know this is 488 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:07,960 Speaker 4: and Purty. I like Purty as a person. I think 489 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,639 Speaker 4: he is an incredible human being. He's a guy you 490 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,359 Speaker 4: want to root for, even though he's a forty nine er, 491 00:24:12,359 --> 00:24:14,560 Speaker 4: which is hard for me to root for, but you 492 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:18,160 Speaker 4: do root for good people. But there's always a weakness 493 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,639 Speaker 4: we see in his game. And when you've had a 494 00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 4: full year, almost a year of film, people see you 495 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 4: in the offseason, and now that we start a new season, 496 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 4: they're going to force you to adjust to your weaknesses. 497 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:35,440 Speaker 4: And his weakness is he just doesn't have a really 498 00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,160 Speaker 4: strong arm. He's off. He's got to be on timing. 499 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 4: And so now people are which I always say, with 500 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 4: forty nine ers protect the middle of the field, force 501 00:24:44,280 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 4: them to throw outside the numbers, and he's starting to 502 00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 4: try to get the ball over linebackers heads. He's starting 503 00:24:51,600 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 4: to create some turnovers. I think he's still capable. And 504 00:24:56,320 --> 00:24:59,520 Speaker 4: when they get Samuel back, and now they got Chase Young, 505 00:25:00,200 --> 00:25:03,360 Speaker 4: they're formidable. They got a great defense. But things come 506 00:25:03,400 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 4: back to the pack to you really quick, and people 507 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,400 Speaker 4: start to find your weaknesses, and if you don't make 508 00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 4: those adjustments, you go on a three game losing streak 509 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,919 Speaker 4: like they have, not kicking them out. I don't think 510 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:14,720 Speaker 4: they're going to be a playoff team. It's going to 511 00:25:14,760 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 4: be a battle when we play them over the next 512 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 4: twice over the next six weeks, I think. But I 513 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 4: like our chances now. I think we match up defensively 514 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,440 Speaker 4: really well. I think when we eventually get Abe Lucas 515 00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:31,280 Speaker 4: back at right tackle, hopefully we've got a complete line 516 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 4: as well. And then we've got five receivers now that 517 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,560 Speaker 4: de Eskridge is back, we're gonna have JSN here in 518 00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 4: a bit too. I mean we got tight ends. We 519 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 4: just we're loaded across the board, so there's no excuses. 520 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:46,000 Speaker 4: We've closed the gap and Actually, we've more than closed 521 00:25:46,040 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 4: the gap. We were five and two and they're five 522 00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:48,359 Speaker 4: and three. 523 00:25:48,760 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, you've been saying that since the Jimmy Garoppolo days. 524 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 3: Make them throw outside the numbers. And I watched the 525 00:25:56,040 --> 00:25:59,479 Speaker 3: interceptions that brock Party has. Guess what it is, digs 526 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,840 Speaker 3: across the middle. They're dropping that Mike linebacker and clouting 527 00:26:02,840 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 3: that space for him. I think teams are starting to 528 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 3: figure that out. Something interesting happened the other day. The 529 00:26:08,400 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 3: raid is loss on a Monday night, and with the 530 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:12,960 Speaker 3: next day, Josh McDaniels is out of there, the second 531 00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 3: time he's been fired as a head coach over there 532 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 3: in the second year of that contract. It's so hard 533 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:19,320 Speaker 3: to keep a job in NFL. 534 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: Man. 535 00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:22,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you get a head coach. If you get 536 00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,840 Speaker 4: a head coach, kick, I mean fire me. I'm good, 537 00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 4: guarantee money. Look for me at my age. I'm gonna 538 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 4: go work on my golf game. But it's not the coaches, man, 539 00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:36,119 Speaker 4: it's the organization. Since two thousand, they have had thirteen 540 00:26:36,240 --> 00:26:38,560 Speaker 4: head coaches and actually I think it's fourteen if I 541 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:43,520 Speaker 4: retread Gruden twice. The Seahawks have had two and a 542 00:26:43,600 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 4: half since two thousand and I say two and a half, 543 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,880 Speaker 4: we had Mike Holmgren, and then for the one year 544 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 4: we had Mora, which was kind of forced on the 545 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 4: Seahawks from the previous general manager. He gets one year 546 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,560 Speaker 4: and we bring in Pete Carroll. I mean, that's stability, 547 00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:03,639 Speaker 4: good organization. The Raders just a bad organization. And he 548 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 4: got Mark Davis, who anybody who has Sorry if anybody's 549 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 4: got a bowl cut like that, I apologize, but come on, man, 550 00:27:11,080 --> 00:27:13,800 Speaker 4: I mean, just that alone just shows that he doesn't 551 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:18,479 Speaker 4: make good decisions. His dad was brilliant. He was I mean, 552 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,200 Speaker 4: Al Davis, you know, whatever you want to think about him. 553 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:23,640 Speaker 4: He was an innovator. He was well ahead of his game. 554 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 4: They won a lot of Super Bowls. You get older, 555 00:27:26,240 --> 00:27:28,520 Speaker 4: things may pass you by a little bit or older. 556 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 4: I don't want to say old because I'm that age 557 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:34,119 Speaker 4: his son. It happens a lot in business. You know, 558 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:36,840 Speaker 4: when the kids take over the business, about eighty percent 559 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 4: of them have been driving it into the ground. Mark Davis, 560 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 4: to me, has done that. 561 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,119 Speaker 3: All right, We got about a minute here, Moyer. The 562 00:27:43,160 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 3: Philadelphia Eagles take on the Dallas Cowboys, a game that 563 00:27:47,440 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 3: we need to watch. Go down the Cowboys are five 564 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:52,720 Speaker 3: and two, fourth in the NFC, Philadelphia Eagles seven to one, 565 00:27:52,760 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 3: number one in the NFC. What's this game gonna come 566 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 3: down to? 567 00:27:57,560 --> 00:27:59,359 Speaker 4: I'm kind of torn on this game. I was gonna 568 00:27:59,400 --> 00:28:02,359 Speaker 4: ask you one who you who you hope and wins? 569 00:28:03,520 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 3: You want the Dallas Cowboys to win. I'm torn because 570 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 3: that puts Philly seven. 571 00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 4: And we play Philly so we can take care of business, right, 572 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 4: we control our own destiny. The reason why I kind 573 00:28:14,240 --> 00:28:16,679 Speaker 4: of want Philly to whoop up on them. I just 574 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:19,080 Speaker 4: don't want the Cowboys to be a problem for us. 575 00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 4: You know where they all said and what they're they're 576 00:28:21,119 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 4: battling and they're they're super skilled. I think we match 577 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 4: up well against Philadelphia. That is going to be a battle, 578 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 4: and I don't know six weeks, five weeks whenever that is. So, look, 579 00:28:32,680 --> 00:28:34,399 Speaker 4: they're all out in front of us. We got the 580 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 4: forty nine ers twice, and we got Philly coming here. 581 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,480 Speaker 4: We got the Cowboys we're gonna go to And here's 582 00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 4: the great thing. When we go to play the Cowboys, 583 00:28:41,960 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 4: we're wearing our throwback jerseys again.

I don't want to say 614 00:30:11,320 --> 00:30:11,800 Speaker 4: you're wrong. 615 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 3: I might be wrong close to it. 616 00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 4: But I didn't know we had a school that big. 617 00:30:17,480 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 4: And then you know in the state of Washington. 618 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 3: But you know north in the country, man, you know, 619 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:22,480 Speaker 3: they do a different up there. 620 00:30:22,560 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 4: I do. 621 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:23,680 Speaker 3: I do. 622 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 4: Allen. They actually will bring this up to Allan High School, 623 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:31,160 Speaker 4: which is in Texas, a powerhouse there. They got like 624 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 4: five close to five thousand students. And I was just 625 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:38,560 Speaker 4: reading that one of the fastest growing places, particularly in 626 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 4: Texas is it's kind of that north part of Texas 627 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:46,240 Speaker 4: outside of Dallas and kind of the Frisco area. Rock 628 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 4: Wall they were talking about they just did a bond 629 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 4: or they they're building a new high school stadium. It's 630 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:57,960 Speaker 4: one hundred and fifty million dollars. I don't know how big. 631 00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:00,840 Speaker 4: It's probably twenty thousand seats made, maybe thirty, but they 632 00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 4: that's what they get there, and they have no problem 633 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:07,480 Speaker 4: getting those bonds passed through because high school football there, 634 00:31:07,520 --> 00:31:11,880 Speaker 4: it's not even high school football, it's high school. It's school. 635 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 4: If you go and look at those schools that the 636 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:17,320 Speaker 4: ones that are building right now, they look like colleges. 637 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,080 Speaker 4: They are so nice. So they don't mess around in 638 00:31:20,120 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 4: Texas for education. 639 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:26,600 Speaker 3: It's a different culture down down in the big state 640 00:31:26,640 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 3: of Texas. 641 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 2: Man. 642 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 3: But let's talk about what we've seeing out of this 643 00:31:29,560 --> 00:31:32,720 Speaker 3: young man so far. You know, it's been a progression. 644 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:37,200 Speaker 3: I know, when you're the twentieth pick, you are joining 645 00:31:37,600 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 3: a receiver corps that already has some established guys. People 646 00:31:40,640 --> 00:31:42,600 Speaker 3: were still expecting him to hit the ground and have 647 00:31:42,800 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 3: one hundred this game, one hundred and fifty that game. 648 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,720 Speaker 3: You got to realize, man, you got DK, you gotta locket, 649 00:31:47,720 --> 00:31:49,760 Speaker 3: you got a tight end room. That's good to go. 650 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 3: And there's an adjustment period that happens in the NFL. 651 00:31:52,520 --> 00:31:54,920 Speaker 3: And I think we're starting to see him really kind 652 00:31:54,920 --> 00:31:56,880 Speaker 3: of understand what his role is, and I think Shane 653 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 3: Walton is finally understanding how to get him the football. 654 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 3: His very first touchdown, it was a simple post route. 655 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,160 Speaker 3: I call it a sailor combination. He's on the outside, 656 00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:08,080 Speaker 3: Tyler Locket on the inside. Tyler has the corner, he 657 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,680 Speaker 3: has the post, the safety rolls with the pose, the 658 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 3: corner cornerback stays with the corner, and he's wide open. 659 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 3: Gino puts the ball on him and I could imagine 660 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:19,240 Speaker 3: just the relief that was off of him, like, Okay, 661 00:32:19,320 --> 00:32:21,640 Speaker 3: I'm Indian Zone. I know how to get it done. 662 00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:24,920 Speaker 3: And then the following week the game winning touchdown. I 663 00:32:25,080 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 3: like where he's headed right now. 664 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,200 Speaker 4: Well, I think he's healthy. Remember he had a bit 665 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 4: of the hamstring thing his senior year, and I think 666 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:35,480 Speaker 4: he wasn't that healthy even through preseason, right yep. So 667 00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 4: now he's healthy. He looks not that he was never 668 00:32:38,600 --> 00:32:41,959 Speaker 4: fast or quick, but he looks quick. He looks like 669 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:45,240 Speaker 4: the twentieth pick in the draft, and they're starting to 670 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:46,960 Speaker 4: try and to feature him. There was one play was 671 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,280 Speaker 4: Cincinnati gain where they created this play form man. He 672 00:32:51,400 --> 00:32:54,280 Speaker 4: was wide opening. Again, something flashed in front of Gino. 673 00:32:54,360 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 4: Gino didn't see him, and now they're creating opportunities for him. 674 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 4: Before early on it was bubble screens, quick screens. Let's 675 00:33:01,720 --> 00:33:03,240 Speaker 4: just get in the ball maybe and see if we 676 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:06,520 Speaker 4: can get some space, but they're all short routes. Now 677 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 4: they're starting to develop some routes, and it's critical because 678 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:12,200 Speaker 4: of the way they're playing DK, the way they play Tyler. 679 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,000 Speaker 4: We got a lot of receivers. You got Jake Bobo, 680 00:33:15,160 --> 00:33:18,200 Speaker 4: you know, got d S. Gridge, you know JSN. So 681 00:33:18,320 --> 00:33:21,960 Speaker 4: the weapons are there. That the tough part, obviously for Gino, 682 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 4: is how do I spread this thing around to everybody 683 00:33:24,720 --> 00:33:27,280 Speaker 4: and make them all happy. I want to ask JSN. 684 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 4: I go, you know what's that like in the receiver room? 685 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 2: Man? 686 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 4: You got four targets? 687 00:33:32,640 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 3: He got nine. 688 00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 4: You're all mad at each other. 689 00:33:36,160 --> 00:33:39,120 Speaker 3: DK have fourteen of them things, uh last week. So 690 00:33:39,640 --> 00:33:43,360 Speaker 3: I think he's good. But he's still third on the 691 00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 3: team in targets, which is crazy because they're Because you 692 00:33:46,120 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 3: mentioned all those names, it seems like it's spread out 693 00:33:49,440 --> 00:33:51,640 Speaker 3: so evenly, which it is, right. You got your two 694 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:54,160 Speaker 3: at the top, you got JSN, and then I believe 695 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,240 Speaker 3: Noah fen or Kobe Parkinson our third and fourth, and 696 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,640 Speaker 3: you're throwing will of dis league. That's a good problem 697 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:01,560 Speaker 3: to have, man, It's that you have so many weapons. 698 00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:03,760 Speaker 3: You're trying to get them football and trying to create 699 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 3: ways to get them the football. If I'm Shane Walden 700 00:34:06,400 --> 00:34:08,240 Speaker 3: at night, I'm sitting down and I'm looking at film 701 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 3: and I'm saying, all right, I have the big down 702 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 3: the field type of guy. I have the reliable back 703 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:18,160 Speaker 3: of the end zone type of dude in Tyler Lockett, 704 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 3: and then you have this js N kid who you're 705 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:22,600 Speaker 3: trying to really figure out what he can do on 706 00:34:22,640 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 3: this level. It has to be fun trying to game 707 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:26,880 Speaker 3: plan for those type of guys. 708 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,719 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they know what he can do, and 709 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:34,960 Speaker 4: I you're seeing more and more things created just for him. Yeah, 710 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 4: I there's so many weapons. We didn't even talk about 711 00:34:38,600 --> 00:34:40,600 Speaker 4: the running backs too. I mean we didn't, you know, 712 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:43,320 Speaker 4: screen game, and I'd like to get you know, Canine 713 00:34:43,360 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 4: out in the open field. And then Charbona starting to 714 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:49,560 Speaker 4: really come on as well. So yeah, you know, and look, 715 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 4: j San has also been I don't know what you 716 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,200 Speaker 4: call it, wide receiver. You I meant, at this point, 717 00:35:00,200 --> 00:35:01,800 Speaker 4: who's their stud The guy who's talking. 718 00:35:01,600 --> 00:35:05,360 Speaker 3: About Marvin Harrison coming out Mecca Is will be the 719 00:35:05,400 --> 00:35:06,719 Speaker 3: next one out out of it, out of there. 720 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:08,959 Speaker 4: You know, there's been a few good high school kids 721 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:10,520 Speaker 4: that have you know, from here in the state of 722 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 4: Washington went there can't play again any playing time. Right, 723 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,319 Speaker 4: you know that's how how deep that is. And so 724 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:20,480 Speaker 4: he gets what it's like to battle for targets. I 725 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 4: ask you, what is that like? I mean, you know 726 00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 4: on the defense side, you know, I'm I go create 727 00:35:26,160 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 4: my own targets. You guys gotta wait for the ball 728 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 4: to come to you. 729 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:32,520 Speaker 3: Well, I think you because when I played, I had 730 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 3: Jason Hill, who at the time held a lot of 731 00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:38,360 Speaker 3: records in the pack ten at the time, uh for 732 00:35:38,560 --> 00:35:41,839 Speaker 3: touchdowns and yards, right, and then Brandon Gibson who played 733 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 3: the NFL as well. I think you just understand the 734 00:35:44,200 --> 00:35:47,320 Speaker 3: situation and when you're when it's your time to shine. 735 00:35:47,400 --> 00:35:49,600 Speaker 3: You know, for me it was third downs. Third downs 736 00:35:49,640 --> 00:35:52,799 Speaker 3: they knew, send me across the middle, I got you, 737 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 3: get you down the field, we get into the red zone, 738 00:35:55,000 --> 00:35:56,839 Speaker 3: I go, all right, I've done my job. You're gonna 739 00:35:56,880 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 3: go outside up top to the other guys. So I 740 00:35:59,200 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 3: think once you you settle down and you understand just 741 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,160 Speaker 3: when is your time to shine, you take advantage of 742 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:08,279 Speaker 3: those opportunities. Because if you throw the ball thirty five 743 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 3: forty times a game, I mean you're gonna get five, six, 744 00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 3: seven targets, so I think, and then you look at 745 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:15,439 Speaker 3: you look at the room, and you realize who you're 746 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 3: dealing with, and you know that if the guy outside 747 00:36:17,800 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 3: of me or the guy on the other side is 748 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:21,719 Speaker 3: playing good football, they're gonna game plan to stop him. 749 00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,359 Speaker 3: That opens everybody else up. 750 00:36:23,520 --> 00:36:29,320 Speaker 4: So on offense, is every play when they call play. 751 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 4: I can't believe I don't know this, But when they 752 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 4: call play, are you the target or does the defense 753 00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 4: dictate the target? So going into a game, do you 754 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 4: have an idea? Probably if we throw at thirty, I'm 755 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 4: gonna be targeted eight times. But on every call is 756 00:36:47,440 --> 00:36:52,920 Speaker 4: DK is it? You know? Spread right? Whatever? DK? On one? 757 00:36:53,600 --> 00:36:58,960 Speaker 3: You know it's you get the game plan and you 758 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:01,239 Speaker 3: look at what the defense is trying to do. And 759 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:03,200 Speaker 3: there are certain players where you know, I'm gonna get 760 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:05,600 Speaker 3: this football if they come out in the defense that 761 00:37:05,800 --> 00:37:07,880 Speaker 3: we think they're gonna come out in. And then you 762 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 3: get to the line of screamers. You're looking at the 763 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:12,799 Speaker 3: defense you say, Okay, this is my job. Like I'll 764 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:14,880 Speaker 3: never forget. We used to run this play four x 765 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:17,640 Speaker 3: all it is ten yard dig boom and I'm running 766 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,680 Speaker 3: the scene. They call that play and literally in the huddle, 767 00:37:20,719 --> 00:37:22,799 Speaker 3: I look at my guy, go I got you, because 768 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,200 Speaker 3: I know the only way I'm getting this football is 769 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:25,920 Speaker 3: if they blitz us or if that safety hops down, 770 00:37:25,960 --> 00:37:27,839 Speaker 3: and look they're in quarters. They're not gonna hop down 771 00:37:27,840 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 3: on this. So my job is a whole that safety, 772 00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:32,759 Speaker 3: so my guy underneath can get the football. Yeah. Yeah, 773 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:35,040 Speaker 3: you got to be unselfish, right, But I think there 774 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,239 Speaker 3: are certain players that are designated for you. I knew 775 00:37:37,280 --> 00:37:41,200 Speaker 3: when we ran bubble screens and uh, these these hunt 776 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 3: rounds in the middlefield. That's what I'm here to do. 777 00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:45,880 Speaker 3: But then you look at the defense and they might 778 00:37:46,000 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 3: change some things in game plans some stuff. So now 779 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:50,520 Speaker 3: you know, if you're a smart football player, you kind 780 00:37:50,520 --> 00:37:52,239 Speaker 3: of figure that out. But if you are one of 781 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,800 Speaker 3: those guys who just runs the route that's on the paper, 782 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 3: you might get a little frustrated because you're not knowing. 783 00:37:56,680 --> 00:37:58,400 Speaker 3: If you don't know what you're looking at on the 784 00:37:58,440 --> 00:38:00,759 Speaker 3: back end, what's it like in the on the defensive side, 785 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,600 Speaker 3: you guys get into the film room and say, all right, 786 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,040 Speaker 3: we got to eliminate this guy. Let everyone else do 787 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 3: their thing, Let's get rid of this guy. 788 00:38:08,880 --> 00:38:12,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, sometimes it's we gotta take that guy away, or 789 00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:14,560 Speaker 4: we say, hey, we're gonna take everybody else away, and 790 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 4: we'll we'll, we'll, we'll defend that. But a lot of 791 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 4: times it's just form. It's usually it's more formation driven. 792 00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 4: I used to have a thing called we call it 793 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:27,759 Speaker 4: an audible defense, and my audible would be, wherever that 794 00:38:27,800 --> 00:38:31,640 Speaker 4: guy is, we're rolling to that guy, and didn't matter 795 00:38:31,680 --> 00:38:34,279 Speaker 4: if he motioned across, We're rolling that No matter what, 796 00:38:34,400 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 4: we are going to take him away. But that was 797 00:38:37,120 --> 00:38:39,759 Speaker 4: really rare because in today's we are you gonna take 798 00:38:39,840 --> 00:38:43,320 Speaker 4: DK away? We're gonna take DK away. Well, Jay San's 799 00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:46,120 Speaker 4: gonna kill you, Tyler Lockett's gonna kill you. I mean, 800 00:38:46,160 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 4: there's there's a lot of other guys that can kill you. 801 00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:50,520 Speaker 4: So I learned a little bit, man, This is good. 802 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:53,040 Speaker 4: I learned a little bit watching you by.

But was there a moment in high school 841 00:40:41,960 --> 00:40:44,279 Speaker 3: where you're just like, yeah, I'm that guy and we're 842 00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:45,080 Speaker 3: gonna make this happen. 843 00:40:45,280 --> 00:40:48,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, I would say my junior year. I would say 844 00:40:49,080 --> 00:40:51,160 Speaker 6: that's when it clicked to where like, Okay, I could 845 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:56,400 Speaker 6: be a professional after the sport and luckily, lucky lucky 846 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:57,040 Speaker 6: me here I. 847 00:40:57,000 --> 00:41:02,080 Speaker 4: Am, well, I'm looking at the senior year. We so JSN, 848 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,680 Speaker 4: let me before I go on this. You're now JSN, 849 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,800 Speaker 4: How weird is that? I mean, look, there are people 850 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:10,799 Speaker 4: like Tiger, there's DK, there's a few people that's just 851 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:15,880 Speaker 4: a single name. Somehow it's transformed to JSN. How do 852 00:41:15,880 --> 00:41:16,719 Speaker 4: you feel about that? 853 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,640 Speaker 6: I feel good, I feel like, it's a lot easier 854 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:23,880 Speaker 6: to pronounce in jig ball all the time. So I 855 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 6: don't mind it at all. I heard the name in college, 856 00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:28,840 Speaker 6: and you know, it's just been sticking with it ever since. 857 00:41:28,880 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 4: You and I were chatting with. My kids are in 858 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:35,280 Speaker 4: Dallas and he's from Rockwell. Rock Wall, excuse me, Texas 859 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:38,360 Speaker 4: was just outside of Dallas, a little kind of northeast. 860 00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,000 Speaker 4: I guess right, I'm looking. They just had a new 861 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:45,080 Speaker 4: bond that came out. They're building a one hundred and 862 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 4: fifty million dollars high school football stadium, wow, which again 863 00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 4: is crazy. Now Rockwall, you had about three thousand students 864 00:41:53,080 --> 00:41:55,560 Speaker 4: just talk about high school football there. R We bring 865 00:41:55,560 --> 00:41:57,600 Speaker 4: it up a bunch because we had a few guys 866 00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,520 Speaker 4: who were in Houston and they we got the best 867 00:41:59,520 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 4: football in Florida. But you know, Dallas, Allen, you guys 868 00:42:04,440 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 4: just talk about that moment. 869 00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:08,040 Speaker 6: I may be biased. I know you're from calic but 870 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 6: in Texas, I just feel like it's second to none. 871 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:15,279 Speaker 6: You know, the city, the support, you know, football's a 872 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,040 Speaker 6: religion out there, and I was blessed to grow up 873 00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,799 Speaker 6: to where, you know, people cared about football and you know, 874 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,760 Speaker 6: the stands were packed, and you know, I just Friday 875 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,359 Speaker 6: Night Lights. You know, it's a real thing. But just 876 00:42:27,400 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 6: growing up with your friends and and and going to 877 00:42:31,520 --> 00:42:34,880 Speaker 6: high school and playing together, going down you know, the 878 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,280 Speaker 6: road of State. You know, there's nothing like it. It's 879 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:40,400 Speaker 6: it's I wouldn't say it's like the movie Friday Night Lights, 880 00:42:40,560 --> 00:42:42,080 Speaker 6: but it's it's close for sure. 881 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,600 Speaker 3: No, I feel it. The culture is different in Texas. 882 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 3: They believe in football. You know. Out here in California, man, 883 00:42:49,080 --> 00:42:50,960 Speaker 3: you gotta pass some levies and some bonds and stuff 884 00:42:51,239 --> 00:42:54,720 Speaker 3: out there, they just do it. I love hearing about 885 00:42:54,719 --> 00:42:57,880 Speaker 3: how guys became the person they are. Me I grew up, 886 00:42:57,920 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 3: I didn't have a brother or a sister, so I 887 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:01,400 Speaker 3: just through my boys on the black But you have 888 00:43:01,440 --> 00:43:04,279 Speaker 3: a brother. It was a professional baseball player, man, I 889 00:43:04,280 --> 00:43:06,839 Speaker 3: would have I would imagine there was some battles going 890 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:08,800 Speaker 3: on in the field, on the court, on the diamond, 891 00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:10,359 Speaker 3: Like what was that like? And how did he help 892 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:13,200 Speaker 3: you in your development? He's actually in attendance today. 893 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, he is. 894 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:20,160 Speaker 4: A future Mariner. I love it. 895 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I know, just growing up we were competitive. You know, 896 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:26,840 Speaker 6: like you said, he plays baseball, you know, at the 897 00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:29,240 Speaker 6: highest level, and you know, it was tough. 898 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:30,800 Speaker 3: It was tough. He beat me a lot. 899 00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,879 Speaker 6: I'm starting to catch back up with the wins now, 900 00:43:34,719 --> 00:43:37,600 Speaker 6: kind of making it even. But you know, it was hard. 901 00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 6: But I wouldn't be the person I am, or the 902 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,280 Speaker 6: athlete or whatever, you know, without my big bro leading 903 00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:45,520 Speaker 6: away and showing me, you know how to get it done. 904 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:48,719 Speaker 4: So he takes the baseball route, you take the football route. 905 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 4: I'm guessing he looks like he's a football player too. Yeah, 906 00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,239 Speaker 4: so he definitely played. Did you play baseball? I did? 907 00:43:55,360 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 2: Yeah? 908 00:43:55,960 --> 00:43:57,560 Speaker 4: Just talk about who was better at what? 909 00:43:58,880 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 6: He would definitely say he was better at football. 910 00:44:02,200 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 4: He played. 911 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 6: He played football longer than I played baseball. So I 912 00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:05,879 Speaker 6: give it to him. 913 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 4: You definitely got that bill. He looked like he hurt somebody. 914 00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:11,640 Speaker 3: Now you you end up going to UH the Ohio 915 00:44:11,680 --> 00:44:16,320 Speaker 3: State University wide receiver, you man, I mean you got Wilson, 916 00:44:16,360 --> 00:44:20,759 Speaker 3: you got a lave you're out there, you got Marvin Harrison, 917 00:44:21,080 --> 00:44:23,800 Speaker 3: you got Mecca, who's a local kid from this area. 918 00:44:24,400 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 3: Why did you choose that program? And what is it 919 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 3: about that program that developed such good receivers? 920 00:44:29,320 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'm what stood out was the development and UH 921 00:44:33,520 --> 00:44:36,719 Speaker 6: coach Meck starting with him our strength coach, one the 922 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:40,600 Speaker 6: most known strength coaches in all of the country. You know, 923 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 6: I knew that he would, you know, if I stayed 924 00:44:43,400 --> 00:44:46,680 Speaker 6: the course and listen to coaches like coach Brian Hartline, 925 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 6: being in the room with guys like Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson, 926 00:44:49,400 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 6: all the guys that you mentioned that, you know, I would, 927 00:44:52,080 --> 00:44:56,080 Speaker 6: you know, be sitting here, you know, hopefully going first 928 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,560 Speaker 6: round like I did, you know, just being able to 929 00:44:58,600 --> 00:44:59,319 Speaker 6: go down that road. 930 00:44:59,360 --> 00:44:59,880 Speaker 3: I think. 931 00:45:01,719 --> 00:45:03,960 Speaker 6: I seen it, you know, I seen it how it 932 00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 6: unfolded for others. Just staying a course as what I'm 933 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:09,480 Speaker 6: trying to say. And and I knew that, you know, 934 00:45:09,840 --> 00:45:11,680 Speaker 6: being in that position, I could do the same. 935 00:45:12,320 --> 00:45:14,600 Speaker 4: You're wearing a sweater or it's got some burnt orange 936 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:17,920 Speaker 4: on there though, Yeah, what were you were? You were 937 00:45:17,920 --> 00:45:20,320 Speaker 4: you a Texas fan? I mean, I know in Dallas, 938 00:45:20,320 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 4: I'm not sure which direction that goes. 939 00:45:22,239 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 6: Growing up, when I was small, I was an A 940 00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:26,319 Speaker 6: and M fan. My dad was an A and M fan. 941 00:45:26,880 --> 00:45:31,000 Speaker 6: And then around middle school I went to the Texas 942 00:45:31,040 --> 00:45:34,239 Speaker 6: OU football game like every single year. I thought I 943 00:45:34,320 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 6: was going to go to those colleges, either Texas or OU, 944 00:45:37,840 --> 00:45:41,680 Speaker 6: but didn't Ohio State was my first big offer my 945 00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 6: junior year. And you know, once I didn't have Texas 946 00:45:45,200 --> 00:45:47,839 Speaker 6: OU and all those guys from home in Ohio stayed 947 00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,600 Speaker 6: off for me. I was like, forget it, We're just 948 00:45:49,640 --> 00:45:51,239 Speaker 6: gonna go go be a buck guy. 949 00:45:51,800 --> 00:45:51,960 Speaker 4: Man. 950 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:54,120 Speaker 3: I want to ask you some ex's and o's. Man. 951 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:57,800 Speaker 3: We broke down your very first touchdown. You're at the 952 00:45:57,880 --> 00:45:59,800 Speaker 3: number one receiver. Tyler Locke is in the slot, you 953 00:45:59,840 --> 00:46:02,200 Speaker 3: got the post, he has the corner. Booter Baker is 954 00:46:02,239 --> 00:46:05,040 Speaker 3: at the safety. He ends up going with the corner 955 00:46:05,080 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 3: and then you're wide open when you lined up, then 956 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,680 Speaker 3: you heard that play. Is that what you anticipated? Was 957 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,799 Speaker 3: it a bus by the safety? Like walk us through 958 00:46:12,160 --> 00:46:13,400 Speaker 3: that whole scenario. 959 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, so we had a crossing concept and yeah, I 960 00:46:16,960 --> 00:46:20,040 Speaker 6: was hoping for cover four to where you know they 961 00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:23,720 Speaker 6: have their quarters and Booter Baker, you know, he usually 962 00:46:23,719 --> 00:46:26,520 Speaker 6: doesn't make that mistake. A great football player, obviously, but 963 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,480 Speaker 6: you gotta respect Tyler Lockett when he's running full speed 964 00:46:29,480 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 6: at you and makes a cut. So he respected Tyler 965 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:35,640 Speaker 6: Lockett took the corner and GINO see me coming down 966 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:36,680 Speaker 6: the middle wide open. 967 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 3: And that wasn't an easy cash. Neither was kind of 968 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:40,719 Speaker 3: behind you. Has to put the brakes on a little bit. 969 00:46:40,719 --> 00:46:42,359 Speaker 3: I know, people like, oh, it's wide open, gray through 970 00:46:42,640 --> 00:46:45,520 Speaker 3: good good throw, Geno got you. But I appreciate that 971 00:46:45,560 --> 00:46:48,320 Speaker 3: about you because that's easily the average dude might have 972 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,360 Speaker 3: just dropped that and it tricked off the bag for 973 00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:51,960 Speaker 3: the very first touchdown for sure. 974 00:46:52,120 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 4: Well, they're definitely starting to create things for it. Matter 975 00:46:54,680 --> 00:46:57,239 Speaker 4: of fact, the winning touchdown last week and one thing 976 00:46:57,239 --> 00:47:00,239 Speaker 4: that jumped out of us, I go, oh, he's healthy. 977 00:47:00,400 --> 00:47:03,880 Speaker 4: I mean the quickness that you had, and early on 978 00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:05,359 Speaker 4: it looked like they were just trying to get you 979 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:08,400 Speaker 4: the ball, you know, whether that was bubble screens, quick screens, 980 00:47:08,480 --> 00:47:11,040 Speaker 4: just you know, let's just get them touches. Have the 981 00:47:11,080 --> 00:47:13,640 Speaker 4: plays expanded over the last few weeks for. 982 00:47:13,560 --> 00:47:17,239 Speaker 6: You, Yes, sir, I feel like you see that you 983 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:20,200 Speaker 6: know on the field, and you know, I'm just excited 984 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,640 Speaker 6: to continue to take on bigger roles. You know, had 985 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:26,640 Speaker 6: a little injury, a little shake up in the beginning 986 00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:30,600 Speaker 6: of the season, but return you know, quickly to play. 987 00:47:30,640 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 6: But I'm starting to definitely feel like I'm getting my 988 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:37,399 Speaker 6: groove and just trying to learn and grow a week 989 00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:38,040 Speaker 6: by week. 990 00:47:38,520 --> 00:47:41,120 Speaker 3: When they set you down and talked about how they're 991 00:47:41,160 --> 00:47:43,440 Speaker 3: going to use you with this team in the preseason. 992 00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:45,200 Speaker 3: I go, man, let me see my guy cash them 993 00:47:45,200 --> 00:47:47,439 Speaker 3: with some pump returns. They put you back there. Something 994 00:47:47,480 --> 00:47:49,520 Speaker 3: told me. They told you to fair catch it. They 995 00:47:49,560 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 3: just want you to get possession there. It was pump 996 00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 3: return something you wanted to do. I doubt they put 997 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:57,960 Speaker 3: you back there now. Obviously the twentieth picks, whoever met you, 998 00:47:58,040 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 3: it makes sure you good. But is that something you 999 00:48:00,040 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 3: wanted to do. Yeah, for sure. 1000 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 6: I felt like any time I can get the ball 1001 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:06,280 Speaker 6: in my hands, that's good for you know, my team. 1002 00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 6: So you know, I definitely would go back there. Like 1003 00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:11,080 Speaker 6: I said, the injury in the beginning of the season, 1004 00:48:11,120 --> 00:48:13,040 Speaker 6: but you know, you might see me back there here 1005 00:48:13,080 --> 00:48:13,840 Speaker 6: in a few weeks. 1006 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 4: I love that. Look, you guys are talented. You're talented 1007 00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:19,279 Speaker 4: at Ohio State. Obviously in the receiver group, you're talented here. 1008 00:48:19,320 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 4: I mean there's obviously DK Tyler I mean throwing d you, 1009 00:48:22,920 --> 00:48:25,840 Speaker 4: I mean Bobo doing some stuff. And I was talking 1010 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 4: with Bump Bump played and it was a wide receiver. 1011 00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:30,160 Speaker 4: I was a dB, right, So we didn't we didn't 1012 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:35,839 Speaker 4: complain about touches or opportunities? What is that like? And 1013 00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:38,560 Speaker 4: you know, again you're it's a crowded wide receiver room 1014 00:48:38,600 --> 00:48:41,840 Speaker 4: and you can't give everybody ten touches. But just how's 1015 00:48:41,880 --> 00:48:42,920 Speaker 4: that dynamic work? 1016 00:48:44,560 --> 00:48:44,759 Speaker 3: You know? 1017 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:48,120 Speaker 6: I feel like Coach Pete Carroll in the front office, 1018 00:48:48,120 --> 00:48:50,279 Speaker 6: they get guys who want to win, you know, first 1019 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:52,719 Speaker 6: and foremost, and you know I can sense that on 1020 00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:55,960 Speaker 6: everybody in the receiver room. You know, yeah, yeah, it 1021 00:48:55,960 --> 00:48:59,240 Speaker 6: feels definitely feels good to go for one hundred yards 1022 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:01,840 Speaker 6: and catch street three tds. But I feel like we 1023 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,480 Speaker 6: have guys in our receiver room who just want to 1024 00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 6: win and you know, know, you know, just take what's 1025 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,760 Speaker 6: given to them, you know, a week by week because 1026 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:13,600 Speaker 6: you don't know what's going to happen, if it's going 1027 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:15,560 Speaker 6: to be your day or not. But I just feel 1028 00:49:15,640 --> 00:49:18,480 Speaker 6: like in the receiver room, we approached the game the 1029 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:23,799 Speaker 6: right way. You know, Tyler Lockett, especially him leading, you know, 1030 00:49:23,920 --> 00:49:24,840 Speaker 6: him leading us. 1031 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:28,040 Speaker 3: What was that that final drive like last week? Right, 1032 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,200 Speaker 3: you guys get the football, you got a chance to 1033 00:49:30,239 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 3: win the ball game. You're driving down and then you 1034 00:49:32,640 --> 00:49:35,480 Speaker 3: get inside with the fifteen yard line and you hear 1035 00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 3: your number being called man walk us through the intensity 1036 00:49:38,640 --> 00:49:40,759 Speaker 3: in the huddle during that moment, and then what that 1037 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:42,759 Speaker 3: moment was like when you heard the play call, you 1038 00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:44,839 Speaker 3: line up, you see you getting pressed off the edge. 1039 00:49:44,880 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 3: You got the safety over the top. If DK takes 1040 00:49:47,040 --> 00:49:49,359 Speaker 3: care of that that corner, you're good to go. Yeah. 1041 00:49:49,400 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 6: I mean, first I would just say, you know, once 1042 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:56,080 Speaker 6: we got the interception and we're going back on the field, 1043 00:49:56,120 --> 00:49:59,000 Speaker 6: I felt, you know, very comfortable. I felt, you know, 1044 00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,640 Speaker 6: everybody in the huddle felt, you know, comfortable that we're 1045 00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,480 Speaker 6: going to go down there and score. You know, I 1046 00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:07,279 Speaker 6: think that was Gino brings that presence, you know, hey, 1047 00:50:07,280 --> 00:50:08,919 Speaker 6: we're about to go down there and win the game. 1048 00:50:09,320 --> 00:50:11,680 Speaker 6: And we believed it made a good place.

Hey, 1094 00:52:11,640 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 3: so it's time for us to go inside the film 1095 00:52:13,640 --> 00:52:18,120 Speaker 3: when we love breaking plays down and now. The first 1096 00:52:18,160 --> 00:52:21,880 Speaker 3: play was a fun play because they got their throwback 1097 00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:26,040 Speaker 3: jerseys on and they get into inside the five yard 1098 00:52:26,080 --> 00:52:29,480 Speaker 3: line and we're thinking, come on, you gotta finish. Right 1099 00:52:29,520 --> 00:52:31,920 Speaker 3: before this game, the Hawks were one for eight in 1100 00:52:31,960 --> 00:52:34,760 Speaker 3: the red zone and they put Jake Bubbo in motion 1101 00:52:35,200 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 3: and some greatness happens here. Cutting number one. 1102 00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 5: Single setback deep behind Gino who goes under center. 1103 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:44,920 Speaker 3: Bobo goes in motion, Bobo gets a handoff, he stopped. 1104 00:52:44,640 --> 00:52:49,440 Speaker 5: Cuts back inside Pison touchdown Saint Hawks. 1105 00:52:50,960 --> 00:52:53,279 Speaker 3: You know what, more, Bobo, you got it. 1106 00:52:54,320 --> 00:52:58,040 Speaker 5: He's been doing that so far in this season, coming 1107 00:52:58,080 --> 00:53:01,000 Speaker 5: in motion and being the lead block That time he 1108 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:06,719 Speaker 5: got the handoff, stops, cuts back inside from three yards out, 1109 00:53:06,840 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 5: dives into the end zone. 1110 00:53:08,160 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 3: The Seahawks are on the board six nothing. 1111 00:53:12,520 --> 00:53:14,200 Speaker 4: Go for it, all right. 1112 00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:16,960 Speaker 3: So on offense, once you get down there, you see 1113 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:18,960 Speaker 3: number nineteen in the game, you're thinking two things, Right, 1114 00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:21,239 Speaker 3: They're gonna go up top to him, or they're gonna 1115 00:53:21,320 --> 00:53:23,520 Speaker 3: use him as a blocker, which they've done plenty of 1116 00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:25,560 Speaker 3: times out here. So what they do is they put 1117 00:53:25,640 --> 00:53:28,960 Speaker 3: Jake Bobo in motion. Geno's under center. They start him 1118 00:53:28,960 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 3: from the left, move him to the right, and the 1119 00:53:31,320 --> 00:53:34,400 Speaker 3: left side of the line shows zone left blocking right 1120 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:37,759 Speaker 3: because typically Bubbo's emotion and he ends up blocking the 1121 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:40,640 Speaker 3: backside d n So the left side of the lines goes, look, 1122 00:53:40,760 --> 00:53:43,520 Speaker 3: we're gonna make it look like ken Walker's getting the football. 1123 00:53:43,560 --> 00:53:45,800 Speaker 3: You look at the right side now they're looking stretch right. 1124 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,640 Speaker 3: They're showing that jet sweet blook. So Jake Bubbo gets 1125 00:53:48,640 --> 00:53:51,399 Speaker 3: the football and the line parks like the Red Sea. 1126 00:53:51,760 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 3: Now I think it was designed for him to get outside. 1127 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:56,399 Speaker 3: But he becomes a football player. He six is foot 1128 00:53:56,400 --> 00:53:58,360 Speaker 3: in the ground and says, you know what, their space 1129 00:53:58,480 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 3: right here, I'm gonna get south instead of getting outside 1130 00:54:02,280 --> 00:54:04,920 Speaker 3: and score an easier touchdown. It would he would have 1131 00:54:04,960 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 3: to work a little bit. If he were to get outside, 1132 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:09,000 Speaker 3: he probably could have done it. But this, to me 1133 00:54:09,239 --> 00:54:12,200 Speaker 3: is a great example of Shane Waldron holding on to 1134 00:54:12,320 --> 00:54:15,520 Speaker 3: a play for a while and saying, Okay, now's the time, 1135 00:54:15,560 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 3: week eight, let's go ahead in and put it to work. 1136 00:54:18,160 --> 00:54:21,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, And as Stevid mentioned in you, we've been running 1137 00:54:21,360 --> 00:54:24,240 Speaker 4: that play and they were expecting something. Their defensive tackle 1138 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:26,279 Speaker 4: ran right up field and he ran right by him. 1139 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,760 Speaker 4: It's like he has the ball. But he probably thought, again, 1140 00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,560 Speaker 4: there's gonna be some form of trap or something on 1141 00:54:32,600 --> 00:54:35,719 Speaker 4: this thing. But you're right. I thought Shane called a 1142 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:38,440 Speaker 4: really good game. He did a lot of cool things, 1143 00:54:38,480 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 4: you know, early in the game, obviously late in the game, 1144 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 4: but this is also just Bobo making a play. And 1145 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 4: you know, he'll never be timed again into forty the 1146 00:54:46,040 --> 00:54:48,359 Speaker 4: rest of his life, it does not matter. But he's 1147 00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:50,920 Speaker 4: got just a feel for the game and some athletic 1148 00:54:50,960 --> 00:54:54,280 Speaker 4: ability that you know, he stopped, made a cut. He's big. 1149 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 4: He scores a touch and we got not three touchdowns, 1150 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,920 Speaker 4: least end zone one too. No, no, that was that 1151 00:55:02,040 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 4: was just that was the runner. He's got two receiving ones. Yeah, 1152 00:55:05,800 --> 00:55:08,879 Speaker 4: and remember we had a coach and the very first 1153 00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:11,120 Speaker 4: one is when Tyler Locker went and got in the football. 1154 00:55:11,960 --> 00:55:13,439 Speaker 4: That was more in the back of the end zone. 1155 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,280 Speaker 4: His first one. Three touchdowns from an undrafted free agent. 1156 00:55:17,680 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 3: Come on, man, take it. 1157 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's good stuff, all right. 1158 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 3: This next play, Julian Love picks off pz A Walker 1159 00:55:24,120 --> 00:55:27,200 Speaker 3: after a heads up played by Jamias third down and three. 1160 00:55:27,360 --> 00:55:30,480 Speaker 5: Walker from the shotgun slots to both sides. 1161 00:55:30,960 --> 00:55:33,719 Speaker 3: Ford in the backfield. Walker's gonna throw fall tipped up 1162 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:35,839 Speaker 3: in the air, balls in a sipped it by Love. 1163 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 5: Love gets it just inside the forty five yard line. 1164 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 5: The Seahawks defense duns it again. They do what they 1165 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:47,239 Speaker 5: have to do. They tipped the ball up. Jamo with 1166 00:55:47,360 --> 00:55:51,400 Speaker 5: the tip, Love with a pick. The Seahawks now in 1167 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:55,200 Speaker 5: great field position and we have reached the two minute morning, 1168 00:55:55,480 --> 00:55:58,080 Speaker 5: one fifty seven to play in the game. Seattle with 1169 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:04,000 Speaker 5: the ball back the trail By. 1170 00:56:01,880 --> 00:56:04,359 Speaker 4: It's just it's just a huge play. I mean, you know, 1171 00:56:05,000 --> 00:56:10,680 Speaker 4: nothing magical here. We decided to bring Jamal Adams, so 1172 00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,359 Speaker 4: we sent five guys after the quarterback. Jamal actually came 1173 00:56:14,520 --> 00:56:18,480 Speaker 4: underneath the tackle guard was a little late and sliding. 1174 00:56:18,520 --> 00:56:22,320 Speaker 4: Now they actually had numbers to pick this up, but Jamal, 1175 00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:27,040 Speaker 4: being heads up, jumped high. And I don't know if 1176 00:56:27,080 --> 00:56:29,560 Speaker 4: I've ever actually seen a play like that before where 1177 00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:33,080 Speaker 4: a quarterback drills them right in the helmet. And boy, 1178 00:56:33,120 --> 00:56:35,120 Speaker 4: we needed it because there was right on two minutes 1179 00:56:35,160 --> 00:56:37,720 Speaker 4: left in the game. Yeah, maybe three, I can't remember 1180 00:56:37,719 --> 00:56:40,080 Speaker 4: the exact time, but we needed a turner. We needed 1181 00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:42,960 Speaker 4: a big play at that moment, and we got it. 1182 00:56:43,000 --> 00:56:45,520 Speaker 4: And I think Julian Love has been is playing as 1183 00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,600 Speaker 4: well as anybody we have on our team right now. 1184 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:52,520 Speaker 4: We are so deep, we do not have a weakness 1185 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:55,439 Speaker 4: on defense right now, and we can play so many 1186 00:56:55,440 --> 00:56:59,680 Speaker 4: different combinations. So heads up on Jamal Adams, but a 1187 00:56:59,800 --> 00:57:02,040 Speaker 4: nice played by Julian Love as well. 1188 00:57:02,160 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got a question for you, Like people look 1189 00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,840 Speaker 3: at this play and think, oh, that's the easy interception 1190 00:57:07,960 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 3: by Julian Love. I look at this and I go, 1191 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,840 Speaker 3: that reminds me of a receiver being wide open running 1192 00:57:13,880 --> 00:57:15,600 Speaker 3: down the field. And that football is is hanging in 1193 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 3: the air, and it seems like it's happening for a 1194 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 3: long time. And what is it like for Julian Love? 1195 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:23,760 Speaker 3: And then it's different too, because not fun guys. He's 1196 00:57:23,800 --> 00:57:26,600 Speaker 3: in the middle. It's not like he's he's twenty yards 1197 00:57:26,640 --> 00:57:29,720 Speaker 3: behind the deepest guy. He's right in the mix. I 1198 00:57:29,760 --> 00:57:31,000 Speaker 3: gotta go up there and make a play. 1199 00:57:31,160 --> 00:57:34,480 Speaker 4: Well. And on top of that, I can't who's running 1200 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:38,560 Speaker 4: there as well. It might be Jordan Brooks. I can't 1201 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:40,640 Speaker 4: remember it. So Jordan's looking for the ball too, and 1202 00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:42,840 Speaker 4: they could have ran into each other. But the ball 1203 00:57:42,920 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 4: is not a spiral too. 1204 00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:44,040 Speaker 5: You. 1205 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:45,800 Speaker 4: I always telling you, why is it so hard? They 1206 00:57:45,840 --> 00:57:48,720 Speaker 4: always go, oh, a dB dropped a ball. That's why 1207 00:57:48,920 --> 00:57:51,360 Speaker 4: they play defense back, not wide receiver. I said no, 1208 00:57:51,920 --> 00:57:54,320 Speaker 4: because it's not thrown to you. You have to go 1209 00:57:54,440 --> 00:57:56,800 Speaker 4: get the football, and it's you know a lot of 1210 00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:59,280 Speaker 4: times it's you know, a wobbly pass or it's thrown 1211 00:57:59,320 --> 00:58:02,840 Speaker 4: behind your low And so yes, those ones are very 1212 00:58:02,840 --> 00:58:05,840 Speaker 4: similar to I just broke, you know, a ninety yard 1213 00:58:05,920 --> 00:58:09,040 Speaker 4: potential touchdown. No one's within twenty yards of me. Please 1214 00:58:09,120 --> 00:58:11,480 Speaker 4: don't drop this, and that's not what you want to 1215 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 4: be thinking when you're trying to catch a football. 1216 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:17,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, I've uh I thought that several times. Thankfully I 1217 00:58:17,240 --> 00:58:21,200 Speaker 3: didn't drop it all right. This next play, Gino Smith 1218 00:58:21,240 --> 00:58:22,560 Speaker 3: finds js in for the game. 1219 00:58:22,600 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 5: When it touched down, Gino from the shotgun, lock and 1220 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:30,000 Speaker 5: wide to the far side JSN. He gets the throw nearside, 1221 00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 5: turns out field, got a dock a touchdown, say Hawks, 1222 00:58:35,640 --> 00:58:41,320 Speaker 5: no flags, DK metcalf with a great block Jackson spiff 1223 00:58:41,320 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 5: and Jigga turns up field and takes it in the 1224 00:58:44,320 --> 00:58:46,080 Speaker 5: front corner of the end zone. 1225 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:47,920 Speaker 3: Want to drive by the Hawks? 1226 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:52,160 Speaker 5: Thank you Julian Love for the pick, and Seattle goes 1227 00:58:52,200 --> 00:58:56,000 Speaker 5: back on top twenty three to twenty. 1228 00:58:56,720 --> 00:58:59,440 Speaker 4: So we talked with JSN earlier, who shows his quicks 1229 00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:01,160 Speaker 4: on his paper. Let me ask you, when you watch 1230 00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:03,040 Speaker 4: this from the end zone, does this look like an 1231 00:59:03,160 --> 00:59:03,520 Speaker 4: r PO? 1232 00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:05,360 Speaker 3: That's what he said. He said it was an RP. 1233 00:59:05,720 --> 00:59:07,720 Speaker 4: He did say yes, Okay, I didn't hear him say that. 1234 00:59:07,760 --> 00:59:12,200 Speaker 3: He said, when your name is mentioned in an r PO, okay, 1235 00:59:12,320 --> 00:59:12,800 Speaker 3: been excited. 1236 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,200 Speaker 4: That's so foreign to me. It's news. I don't know 1237 00:59:15,200 --> 00:59:16,560 Speaker 4: what offenses are telling people. 1238 00:59:17,440 --> 00:59:18,440 Speaker 3: What gave you the indication? 1239 00:59:18,480 --> 00:59:20,560 Speaker 4: It was our offensive line, and you go and watch 1240 00:59:20,560 --> 00:59:22,840 Speaker 4: our center and our right guard. I mean they are 1241 00:59:23,280 --> 00:59:27,280 Speaker 4: aggressively blocking that. And I see Sharboney start to step 1242 00:59:27,320 --> 00:59:31,360 Speaker 4: inside initially for it. Gino doesn't even look for the 1243 00:59:31,400 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 4: handof he just it's it's quick game outside. And what 1244 00:59:35,040 --> 00:59:37,240 Speaker 4: impressed me, there's a lot of things that impressed me, 1245 00:59:37,360 --> 00:59:40,120 Speaker 4: is it looks like a run to the people who 1246 00:59:40,160 --> 00:59:45,040 Speaker 4: are having to defend the run. But Jsn's quickness around here. 1247 00:59:45,080 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 4: I mean, they got this covered. He's got the guy 1248 00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:50,680 Speaker 4: on him covered. He just runs away from this guy. 1249 00:59:50,720 --> 00:59:53,960 Speaker 4: It's not even close. And obviously DK, you know with 1250 00:59:54,040 --> 00:59:57,800 Speaker 4: the block slash no hold is beautiful. 1251 00:59:58,680 --> 01:00:02,000 Speaker 3: I think this is good coaching too, any good play 1252 01:00:02,000 --> 01:00:05,520 Speaker 3: design because you have an RPO, but you're throwing the 1253 01:00:05,520 --> 01:00:08,280 Speaker 3: football behind the line of scrimmage, so you're telling your 1254 01:00:08,280 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 3: offensive lineman you can climb to that second level because 1255 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,240 Speaker 3: we're throwing the football behind the line of scrimmage, so 1256 01:00:13,240 --> 01:00:15,600 Speaker 3: there's no illegal man down the field. If this word 1257 01:00:15,760 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 3: RPO where Jason, we're crossing the line of scrimmage, then 1258 01:00:19,880 --> 01:00:22,480 Speaker 3: you know it's not gonna be It's harder for the 1259 01:00:22,520 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 3: offensive line to play that because they got to kind 1260 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,120 Speaker 3: of wait to see and feel what the running backs 1261 01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 3: doing behind them. So no, I like this man. You 1262 01:00:28,640 --> 01:00:30,360 Speaker 3: get pressure off the edge or one on one with 1263 01:00:30,440 --> 01:00:33,200 Speaker 3: the safety, it's two on two on the outside. You 1264 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:36,120 Speaker 3: like those numbers, especially with a guy like JSN with 1265 01:00:36,120 --> 01:00:36,800 Speaker 3: a ball in his hand. 1266 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,840 Speaker 4: Look at Bradford on display. Watch our right guard number 1267 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:42,960 Speaker 4: seventy five. Look how strong this man is. Yeah, this 1268 01:00:43,080 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 4: man moves people. So why don't you tell the audience. 1269 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 4: I know we all know what RPO is. Why don't 1270 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:48,480 Speaker 4: you just tell him what RPO is? 1271 01:00:48,560 --> 01:00:51,040 Speaker 3: So an RPO is a run pass option. What Gino 1272 01:00:51,160 --> 01:00:54,560 Speaker 3: does is there's a defender that they are throwing off of. 1273 01:00:54,960 --> 01:00:57,720 Speaker 3: Now in this formation right here, you got a too 1274 01:00:57,760 --> 01:00:59,440 Speaker 3: high you got a too high safety look, and you 1275 01:00:59,480 --> 01:01:02,680 Speaker 3: have a nick though I believe that's inside of Jackson 1276 01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:05,120 Speaker 3: Smith and Jig, but he's reading him. He goes Look 1277 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:08,480 Speaker 3: if he bites on the playfake or if he blitzes, 1278 01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:11,800 Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw the bubble screen to JSM. If he stays, 1279 01:01:12,080 --> 01:01:14,120 Speaker 3: then I'm going to run the I'm gonna run. Or 1280 01:01:14,120 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 3: if he bubbles out with JSN, I'm going to run 1281 01:01:16,320 --> 01:01:19,440 Speaker 3: the football. So Gino, I think they showed the blitz 1282 01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:21,880 Speaker 3: pre snap. That's why he was able just to eliminate 1283 01:01:21,920 --> 01:01:24,560 Speaker 3: handing the football off to Zach Charbonnay and say, all right, 1284 01:01:24,680 --> 01:01:26,640 Speaker 3: we got two onto an outside. I'm gonna give it 1285 01:01:26,680 --> 01:01:28,160 Speaker 3: to my youngster and let him do his thing. 1286 01:01:28,400 --> 01:01:30,440 Speaker 4: Because they pretty much send the house on this thing. 1287 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:32,400 Speaker 4: I'm even looking at the free safety. He's got the 1288 01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:35,880 Speaker 4: tight end. There's it's zero coverage. Yeah, or it looks 1289 01:01:35,920 --> 01:01:38,720 Speaker 4: like two initially like you said, and then they bring 1290 01:01:38,760 --> 01:01:41,400 Speaker 4: the guy off the corner on JSN side. The safety 1291 01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:44,240 Speaker 4: ends up picking. He's looking at the tight end. So 1292 01:01:44,560 --> 01:01:47,160 Speaker 4: this is an all out blitz. And so I guess 1293 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:49,560 Speaker 4: one thing we don't really talk about is what a 1294 01:01:49,600 --> 01:01:54,400 Speaker 4: great decision by Gino. Yeah, you know so, because I 1295 01:01:54,400 --> 01:01:56,040 Speaker 4: don't know if we'd had anything in the run game, 1296 01:01:56,280 --> 01:01:57,120 Speaker 4: I don't think we would have. 1297 01:01:57,800 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 3: All right, man, those are your three player we're breaking 1298 01:02:00,800 --> 01:02:04,280 Speaker 3: stuff down. When we return, it's time to talk that talk. Man, 1299 01:02:04,280 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about three things there. It could be 1300 01:02:07,520 --> 01:02:10,680 Speaker 3: Leonard Williams, it could be the Ravens Geno Smith, who 1301 01:02:10,720 --> 01:02:14,840 Speaker 3: knows Jason Peters all of that and more.

We're still live. In 1323 01:03:14,520 --> 01:03:18,320 Speaker 3: this piece. We got our soldiers, man, these are our 1324 01:03:18,440 --> 01:03:22,280 Speaker 3: Hawks Live soldiers. Right once you get to the second 1325 01:03:22,320 --> 01:03:25,320 Speaker 3: to last and the last segment, these are the ones 1326 01:03:25,560 --> 01:03:28,920 Speaker 3: who really care about you. Paul Moyer, I remember that. 1327 01:03:29,480 --> 01:03:32,160 Speaker 4: I well, I know our peeps, I mean, but I've 1328 01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:36,480 Speaker 4: not seen our crowd clear out quite that fast before 1329 01:03:36,680 --> 01:03:41,400 Speaker 4: after JSAM left. But this is our most favorite place. 1330 01:03:41,600 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 3: They treat us, right, Yeah they do, Yes, they do. 1331 01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 3: All right, it's time to talk that talk? Ready to this? 1332 01:03:46,560 --> 01:03:46,720 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1333 01:03:46,760 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 3: All right? This is where we go back and forth. 1334 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:51,160 Speaker 3: We bring up some topics and Moyer reads one, I 1335 01:03:51,280 --> 01:03:54,640 Speaker 3: read one, and we try to agree or disagree, right, 1336 01:03:54,960 --> 01:03:56,760 Speaker 3: and the first one I'll go ahead and gets going. 1337 01:03:56,840 --> 01:04:01,160 Speaker 3: Man Lintle Williams makes this a Super Bowl Oliver defense? 1338 01:04:01,280 --> 01:04:03,440 Speaker 3: Is that true? False? Thoughts? What do you think? 1339 01:04:03,560 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 4: Well, I've certainly liked the direction our defense is gone 1340 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 4: since they've been saying since week four, we're the number 1341 01:04:10,560 --> 01:04:13,760 Speaker 4: one defense in the league since week four. Now we're 1342 01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 4: in what week eight? Nine? We had a bye week 1343 01:04:16,920 --> 01:04:18,920 Speaker 4: so week nine, so you know we're talking four or 1344 01:04:18,920 --> 01:04:22,440 Speaker 4: five games stretch there. So that's pretty good. But I 1345 01:04:22,520 --> 01:04:25,520 Speaker 4: believe so. And the reason why is it allows us 1346 01:04:25,520 --> 01:04:28,600 Speaker 4: from a matchup standpoint, I think the biggest reason why 1347 01:04:28,640 --> 01:04:32,320 Speaker 4: we end up getting Leonard Williams was the offensive lines 1348 01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:36,200 Speaker 4: were about to face Philly is a great offensive line. 1349 01:04:36,800 --> 01:04:39,480 Speaker 4: We got to have some girth in the middle there. 1350 01:04:39,120 --> 01:04:41,920 Speaker 4: We're not that big defensive line, so you got to 1351 01:04:41,960 --> 01:04:44,000 Speaker 4: have that. And the same thing. We got forty nine 1352 01:04:44,080 --> 01:04:46,960 Speaker 4: ers twice and obviously this week against Baltimore. Here's what 1353 01:04:47,000 --> 01:04:49,000 Speaker 4: I will tell you. A bunch of my talk that 1354 01:04:49,200 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 4: talk stuff is going to be decided after this weekend. 1355 01:04:55,520 --> 01:04:57,520 Speaker 3: I was gonna say it really. 1356 01:04:57,400 --> 01:05:01,080 Speaker 4: Is, because if we condom, don't want to say dominate, 1357 01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:03,320 Speaker 4: it's gonna be a tough game. This is a tough 1358 01:05:03,400 --> 01:05:06,440 Speaker 4: game we're about to play. You know, Lamar Jackson's completing 1359 01:05:07,040 --> 01:05:09,840 Speaker 4: seventy percent of his passers. He's having a great year. 1360 01:05:09,840 --> 01:05:12,640 Speaker 4: They've got receivers all over the board, they've got a 1361 01:05:12,680 --> 01:05:16,840 Speaker 4: good line. Defenses really sound physical, but I think we 1362 01:05:16,920 --> 01:05:19,480 Speaker 4: are too. And if we go and beat Cleveland the 1363 01:05:19,560 --> 01:05:21,200 Speaker 4: number one defense at the time, and I don't know 1364 01:05:21,200 --> 01:05:24,360 Speaker 4: if it's Baltimore number one now, yep, So back to back, 1365 01:05:24,400 --> 01:05:25,960 Speaker 4: I don't want how many. I don't know, if that's there, 1366 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:27,920 Speaker 4: that may be the first time in history for the 1367 01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:31,600 Speaker 4: Seahawks back to back number one defenses that you're gonna face. 1368 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:35,080 Speaker 4: It'll say a lot this week, but I do believe 1369 01:05:35,240 --> 01:05:37,680 Speaker 4: it makes us a super Bowl caliber defense. I thought 1370 01:05:37,680 --> 01:05:39,000 Speaker 4: we were pretty close before that. 1371 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,760 Speaker 3: See, I didn't think we were that close. I thought 1372 01:05:42,080 --> 01:05:45,240 Speaker 3: the Hawks were a get out of the wild card 1373 01:05:45,880 --> 01:05:48,240 Speaker 3: and see what happens type of team. But then being 1374 01:05:48,280 --> 01:05:51,040 Speaker 3: start to happen. The Niners lose three in a row. 1375 01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 3: The Hawks find a way to be the really good defense. 1376 01:05:54,240 --> 01:05:56,640 Speaker 3: The game they didn't lose as of late was against 1377 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:58,320 Speaker 3: the Bengals. He felt like they could have won, that 1378 01:05:58,360 --> 01:06:00,360 Speaker 3: should have won, that should have won. That they started 1379 01:06:00,400 --> 01:06:02,240 Speaker 3: to show me some things, and I'm like, Okay, this 1380 01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 3: sea is better than I expected. And honestly, the defense 1381 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:07,919 Speaker 3: is better than I expected. I thought the offense would 1382 01:06:07,920 --> 01:06:10,160 Speaker 3: be the side of the ball to kind of push 1383 01:06:10,240 --> 01:06:13,840 Speaker 3: them towards greatness. So I look at this pick and 1384 01:06:13,880 --> 01:06:16,520 Speaker 3: I go, I love the pick. You need help in 1385 01:06:16,560 --> 01:06:19,880 Speaker 3: the interior. It still allows room for the outside guys 1386 01:06:19,880 --> 01:06:23,720 Speaker 3: to grow. And what the interior guys do is they 1387 01:06:23,840 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 3: force a quarterback to vacate and health these outside edge rushers. 1388 01:06:27,640 --> 01:06:29,400 Speaker 3: So I look at them and I go to super 1389 01:06:29,440 --> 01:06:33,840 Speaker 3: Bowl caliber defense. I'll see utter this week. So I say, no, 1390 01:06:33,880 --> 01:06:34,280 Speaker 3: not yet. 1391 01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:36,400 Speaker 4: So let me ask you a question. Just a fun 1392 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:41,320 Speaker 4: segment do you see a weakness in our defense? No, 1393 01:06:41,920 --> 01:06:44,400 Speaker 4: because we can match up in the secondary. That's what's 1394 01:06:44,400 --> 01:06:44,880 Speaker 4: been missing. 1395 01:06:44,960 --> 01:06:45,600 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, and. 1396 01:06:45,560 --> 01:06:48,560 Speaker 4: Then I think Jordan Brooks along with Bobby Wagg Jordan 1397 01:06:48,640 --> 01:06:52,640 Speaker 4: Brooks is I mean, he's playing electric, he's playing elite, 1398 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:56,560 Speaker 4: elite stuffman. And then you're throwing mafe what he's starting 1399 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:59,160 Speaker 4: to do. And I again, Gray aunt Jones does not 1400 01:06:59,200 --> 01:07:02,120 Speaker 4: get enough credit John Reid what they've been able to do. 1401 01:07:02,160 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 4: And then Bobby has got this fountain, a youth thing 1402 01:07:05,320 --> 01:07:06,240 Speaker 4: that's just kicked in. 1403 01:07:06,520 --> 01:07:09,520 Speaker 3: And we haven't seen Jamal's best game yet. 1404 01:07:09,560 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 4: Now he's getting better, he's. 1405 01:07:10,640 --> 01:07:15,200 Speaker 3: Getting healthier and healthier. So I say, not quite. They're 1406 01:07:15,240 --> 01:07:17,440 Speaker 3: really close to in my opinion, really close. 1407 01:07:17,640 --> 01:07:19,880 Speaker 4: So I just kind of goes to my next question. 1408 01:07:19,920 --> 01:07:23,400 Speaker 4: Maybe we've already answered it, But the Seahawks when they 1409 01:07:23,440 --> 01:07:28,200 Speaker 4: win on Sunday, will it shift your expectations for this season? 1410 01:07:28,280 --> 01:07:32,360 Speaker 3: Yeah? Definitely. Now, this is they got a gauntlet coming up, right, Yes, 1411 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:35,240 Speaker 3: they do. You got the Niners twice within a few weeks, 1412 01:07:35,600 --> 01:07:39,080 Speaker 3: you got Philly, you got the Cowboys. But this is 1413 01:07:39,200 --> 01:07:42,920 Speaker 3: like the warm up before the month long gauntlet. So 1414 01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:45,880 Speaker 3: if they get this done in Baltimore East Coast. They've 1415 01:07:45,880 --> 01:07:47,480 Speaker 3: been great on the East Coast, so I don't even 1416 01:07:47,480 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 3: think that's a factor anymore. It's more dismatching up. You're 1417 01:07:50,880 --> 01:07:54,000 Speaker 3: playing against one of the more responsible quarterbacks in the 1418 01:07:54,080 --> 01:07:56,320 Speaker 3: league right now. I don't think Lamar gets enough credit 1419 01:07:56,360 --> 01:07:58,280 Speaker 3: for what he's doing over there. He's got a new 1420 01:07:58,320 --> 01:08:00,320 Speaker 3: offensive coordinator in a monk who came over from the 1421 01:08:00,400 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 3: University of Georgia. He started the season kind of slow, 1422 01:08:03,720 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 3: trying to figure out who he is and how he fits. 1423 01:08:05,880 --> 01:08:07,720 Speaker 3: You got Zay Flowers over there, who I feel like 1424 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:10,800 Speaker 3: it's the best rookie receiver so far this year. Is 1425 01:08:10,840 --> 01:08:13,320 Speaker 3: you run after the catch? Is crazy. There's only three 1426 01:08:13,400 --> 01:08:15,439 Speaker 3: or four league tight ends in the league every year. 1427 01:08:15,720 --> 01:08:19,080 Speaker 3: They got one over there in Mark andrews Odell. Beckham 1428 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:21,280 Speaker 3: is banged up. I don't expect much out of him, 1429 01:08:21,400 --> 01:08:23,640 Speaker 3: but they also have Gus Edwards in the backfield and 1430 01:08:23,720 --> 01:08:26,479 Speaker 3: he'll as well. Edwards is banged up, Beckham is banged up. 1431 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:29,080 Speaker 3: Will see if they play. So if they get this done, 1432 01:08:29,200 --> 01:08:31,880 Speaker 3: this is a quality win. Lamar Jackson is something like 1433 01:08:31,960 --> 01:08:35,679 Speaker 3: seventeen eighteen and one against NFC opponents throughout his career. 1434 01:08:36,080 --> 01:08:38,600 Speaker 3: He's I think he's like the third most winning this 1435 01:08:38,720 --> 01:08:41,720 Speaker 3: quarterback in the last X amount of years. There are 1436 01:08:41,760 --> 01:08:44,360 Speaker 3: a lot of hitting stats when you look at the 1437 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:48,040 Speaker 3: Baltimore Ravens, So if they win this, to me, they 1438 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:50,599 Speaker 3: go from a get out of the wild card type 1439 01:08:50,640 --> 01:08:54,639 Speaker 3: of team to your continuing to get into the NFC Championship. Yeah. 1440 01:08:54,680 --> 01:08:56,880 Speaker 4: I'm really excited about this game because I really think 1441 01:08:56,920 --> 01:08:59,880 Speaker 4: we match up well defensively with them and obviously get 1442 01:08:59,920 --> 01:09:02,360 Speaker 4: more Williams and is going to be good. It definitely 1443 01:09:02,479 --> 01:09:05,360 Speaker 4: changes for me because now you go six and two, 1444 01:09:05,520 --> 01:09:08,920 Speaker 4: we got the Washington the following week at home, you're 1445 01:09:08,960 --> 01:09:11,880 Speaker 4: seven and two. Then we go on this gauntlet. But 1446 01:09:12,000 --> 01:09:16,000 Speaker 4: the gauntlet is the forty nine ers twice Philly and 1447 01:09:16,479 --> 01:09:18,840 Speaker 4: the Cowboys. I mean, that's that that's a road, right. 1448 01:09:19,320 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 4: But now you're as I mentioned that, Well, I'm not 1449 01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:25,719 Speaker 4: worried about the Yeah, I get and don't get me wrong. 1450 01:09:26,120 --> 01:09:29,200 Speaker 4: We played a bad half versus m We we had 1451 01:09:29,200 --> 01:09:32,040 Speaker 4: the lead at halftime in the opener. I just we 1452 01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:33,560 Speaker 4: had a bad half. I mean to me, it's the 1453 01:09:33,640 --> 01:09:35,800 Speaker 4: only thing that's hurt us this year. And we couldn't 1454 01:09:35,800 --> 01:09:38,479 Speaker 4: score in the red zone. Versus Cincinnati, we dominated that name. 1455 01:09:38,680 --> 01:09:41,080 Speaker 4: We dominated both sides of the ball. I just couldn't 1456 01:09:41,080 --> 01:09:42,519 Speaker 4: get the thing in Anzeo. And that's going to be 1457 01:09:42,560 --> 01:09:45,000 Speaker 4: important this week as well. But if you're seven and 1458 01:09:45,080 --> 01:09:47,720 Speaker 4: two after you, if you win this game and then 1459 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:52,000 Speaker 4: you got Washington, I got Arizona Rams, I'm just I'm 1460 01:09:52,040 --> 01:09:55,080 Speaker 4: just throwing numbers down. Now I'm nine and two. Get 1461 01:09:55,080 --> 01:09:58,240 Speaker 4: if I split those four games, you know, we're eleven 1462 01:09:58,280 --> 01:10:01,000 Speaker 4: and four and I don't even remember who else we 1463 01:10:01,040 --> 01:10:04,000 Speaker 4: got left. But games that we can We obviously can 1464 01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:08,160 Speaker 4: win this game. It sets up the whole season, and 1465 01:10:08,200 --> 01:10:10,879 Speaker 4: I think it makes them realize we can play against 1466 01:10:10,920 --> 01:10:13,680 Speaker 4: any type of footboard play towerhouse. We can match up 1467 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:16,000 Speaker 4: with a team like Cincinnati that throws a ton out 1468 01:10:16,000 --> 01:10:18,320 Speaker 4: of the football forty nine ers and may want to 1469 01:10:18,400 --> 01:10:21,760 Speaker 4: run at a ton. Yes, it changes everything for me 1470 01:10:21,840 --> 01:10:22,679 Speaker 4: after this weekend. 1471 01:10:22,800 --> 01:10:25,040 Speaker 3: This is what I need to see the Rams. Excuse me. 1472 01:10:25,120 --> 01:10:28,800 Speaker 3: The Ravens have eight interceptions as a team that's top ten. 1473 01:10:29,520 --> 01:10:32,160 Speaker 3: Geno Stone, the safety over there, has five of them. 1474 01:10:32,200 --> 01:10:34,920 Speaker 3: Things on his own, Kyle Hamilton over there is a 1475 01:10:34,920 --> 01:10:38,599 Speaker 3: good safety as well, So different type of challenge this week. 1476 01:10:38,720 --> 01:10:40,880 Speaker 3: Last week it was all about the box. It was 1477 01:10:40,920 --> 01:10:43,559 Speaker 3: all about that defensive line this week. You respect that 1478 01:10:43,560 --> 01:10:45,960 Speaker 3: defensive line because they do lead the league when it 1479 01:10:46,000 --> 01:10:48,800 Speaker 3: comes to sacks, but the back end is a bit 1480 01:10:48,880 --> 01:10:50,559 Speaker 3: mold better at that safety spot. 1481 01:10:50,840 --> 01:10:53,679 Speaker 4: It's gonna be tough. I'm really interesting in the game plan. 1482 01:10:53,720 --> 01:10:55,760 Speaker 4: It's gonna be hard to run on these guys. Last week, 1483 01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:58,479 Speaker 4: you know we talked about you know, Cleveland was upfield. 1484 01:10:58,479 --> 01:11:01,320 Speaker 4: They wanted to get through a knife between a guard 1485 01:11:01,320 --> 01:11:04,759 Speaker 4: and a tackle or a center and a guard. Their upfield, upfield, upfield, 1486 01:11:05,120 --> 01:11:08,240 Speaker 4: so they created havoc. But with that they also created 1487 01:11:08,320 --> 01:11:10,200 Speaker 4: lanes so you could hit on a big plan. We 1488 01:11:10,240 --> 01:11:13,400 Speaker 4: hit on some big runs. This team is they are 1489 01:11:13,960 --> 01:11:18,040 Speaker 4: bull rush run first, a little bit two gap and 1490 01:11:18,080 --> 01:11:20,559 Speaker 4: then they get and then they're aggressive in their pass rush. 1491 01:11:20,920 --> 01:11:23,320 Speaker 4: Really an interesting challenge this week. 1492 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:27,120 Speaker 3: I agree. All right, here's one for you. Gino will 1493 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:31,679 Speaker 3: outplay Lamar Jackson on Sunday. I'm talking better at completion percentage. 1494 01:11:31,760 --> 01:11:35,479 Speaker 3: Lamar is completing seventy percent of his passes. He's accounted 1495 01:11:35,479 --> 01:11:40,400 Speaker 3: for fourteen touchdowns overall, nine passing, five rushing, has only 1496 01:11:40,439 --> 01:11:43,200 Speaker 3: turned the ball over three times three interceptions. What do 1497 01:11:43,240 --> 01:11:44,200 Speaker 3: you think about that match up? 1498 01:11:44,479 --> 01:11:47,760 Speaker 4: That that is that is the matchup because look, I 1499 01:11:47,800 --> 01:11:51,400 Speaker 4: think like last week our defense, he toy outplay Cleveland. 1500 01:11:51,720 --> 01:11:55,719 Speaker 4: We did. I think I think Gino has to outplay Lamar. 1501 01:11:55,840 --> 01:11:57,320 Speaker 4: Now he's not gonna have as many rushing jard but 1502 01:11:57,360 --> 01:11:59,800 Speaker 4: I think he has to get more cold yards. He 1503 01:11:59,840 --> 01:12:04,879 Speaker 4: has to have a higher completion percentage. And because I'm 1504 01:12:04,920 --> 01:12:07,320 Speaker 4: picking us to win this game, and look and Gino 1505 01:12:07,400 --> 01:12:10,680 Speaker 4: has to outplay him, I'm going to say yes. And 1506 01:12:10,720 --> 01:12:12,240 Speaker 4: I don't know how confident I am I have. 1507 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 3: I think Gino can not play as good as Lamar 1508 01:12:19,360 --> 01:12:22,120 Speaker 3: and the Hawks cans still win this game because they 1509 01:12:22,120 --> 01:12:25,320 Speaker 3: can rely on the run and their defense. And I 1510 01:12:25,320 --> 01:12:28,839 Speaker 3: think that sometimes quarterbacks look great in between the twenties. 1511 01:12:29,160 --> 01:12:32,000 Speaker 3: You're getting the red zone and things happen. But I 1512 01:12:32,040 --> 01:12:34,800 Speaker 3: think this is a game that Gino gets ripe. It's 1513 01:12:34,840 --> 01:12:37,560 Speaker 3: been a while, right the last two weeks. Is that 1514 01:12:37,760 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 3: five turnovers, I want to say. 1515 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:42,160 Speaker 4: And two of them in the red zone. Last year 1516 01:12:42,600 --> 01:12:46,080 Speaker 4: he did not throw it. He had seven touchdowns, zero 1517 01:12:46,160 --> 01:12:49,360 Speaker 4: interception on huh. This year he's eight and two. I 1518 01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:52,240 Speaker 4: want to say, eight touchdowns, two interceptions. He's got to 1519 01:12:52,240 --> 01:12:56,480 Speaker 4: get above fifty completion in the red zone. No turnovers. 1520 01:12:56,840 --> 01:13:01,599 Speaker 3: All right, So I'm going to say Gino's Smith will 1521 01:13:01,760 --> 01:13:06,920 Speaker 3: outplay Lamar Jackson. And I'm right there with you. I'm 1522 01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:09,160 Speaker 3: just trying to put it out into the universe. Have 1523 01:13:09,280 --> 01:13:13,000 Speaker 3: that thing circle around land in Baltimore, and you know, 1524 01:13:13,120 --> 01:13:15,160 Speaker 3: they say, you know what we got you because the 1525 01:13:15,240 --> 01:13:18,160 Speaker 3: Hawks have been playing some good football defensively, and sometimes 1526 01:13:18,160 --> 01:13:20,040 Speaker 3: that's all it takes, right your defense, hold it down, 1527 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 3: hold it down, let the offense try to figure it 1528 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:24,160 Speaker 3: out the rest for one hundred yards. A couple of 1529 01:13:24,160 --> 01:13:27,240 Speaker 3: weeks ago with Ken Walker, you're getting JSN involve, Jake 1530 01:13:27,280 --> 01:13:31,080 Speaker 3: Bobble was involved. DK was sick last week. So now 1531 01:13:31,120 --> 01:13:33,320 Speaker 3: I think all is going to be healthy, All is 1532 01:13:33,320 --> 01:13:35,439 Speaker 3: going to be well, and we'll get it done. 1533 01:13:35,680 --> 01:13:39,840 Speaker 4: I'm hoping. So Lamar is a problem, so hopefully we 1534 01:13:39,920 --> 01:13:40,800 Speaker 4: got something for him. 1535 01:13:40,840 --> 01:13:43,240 Speaker 3: All right, Well we got something. We got one more, 1536 01:13:43,640 --> 01:13:46,200 Speaker 3: one more segment, Togo, we got something for our faithles 1537 01:13:46,240 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 3: right here, Gokoo, because I see you with the hat 1538 01:13:47,920 --> 01:13:50,320 Speaker 3: right there, baby, All right, coming the next we'll give 1539 01:13:50,320 --> 01:13:53,120 Speaker 3: you our show recap and final thoughts.

You 1548 01:14:19,680 --> 01:14:22,599 Speaker 3: know where where if we could have beverages, we would 1549 01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:26,760 Speaker 3: have beverages right now. And you came up with a good, 1550 01:14:27,360 --> 01:14:28,920 Speaker 3: a good suggestion for this segment. 1551 01:14:29,000 --> 01:14:29,439 Speaker 4: Moy Er. 1552 01:14:30,080 --> 01:14:33,240 Speaker 3: I want to say more Yezy, and then I say Moyer. 1553 01:14:34,479 --> 01:14:38,519 Speaker 3: Then I got all my words mixed up. So with Moyer, Okay, Moyer. 1554 01:14:38,680 --> 01:14:40,160 Speaker 4: I want to mess with I don't want to. I 1555 01:14:40,200 --> 01:14:41,800 Speaker 4: can't get into b Waltz. All right. 1556 01:14:41,880 --> 01:14:44,280 Speaker 3: I feel you. I respect that about you, man, I 1557 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 3: respect that. So we're going to go through the Hawks 1558 01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:53,360 Speaker 3: schedule and Moyer wants to predict what their wind loss 1559 01:14:53,479 --> 01:14:55,559 Speaker 3: is going to be at the end of this year. 1560 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:58,759 Speaker 3: So when you look at it, talk me through it, Moyer, 1561 01:14:59,040 --> 01:14:59,519 Speaker 3: what do you think? 1562 01:14:59,680 --> 01:15:02,840 Speaker 4: Well, because we talked about how important this game is 1563 01:15:02,920 --> 01:15:07,200 Speaker 4: and we'll know a lot more and again this weekend 1564 01:15:07,200 --> 01:15:09,760 Speaker 4: won't define this team that we're gonna keep getting better. 1565 01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:12,479 Speaker 4: We're young, you know, we got Leonard Williams. You know 1566 01:15:12,520 --> 01:15:16,000 Speaker 4: it's gonna take a bit as well. But if we win, 1567 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:19,439 Speaker 4: it's a counting on us winning. We go to six 1568 01:15:19,479 --> 01:15:22,200 Speaker 4: and two. The next game, we have Washington here win 1569 01:15:22,320 --> 01:15:24,800 Speaker 4: seven to two. We're seven to two. Then we go 1570 01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:28,000 Speaker 4: to the Rams. I'm just telling you that's a win. 1571 01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:31,800 Speaker 4: I mean, Stafford has got a bit of a sprain 1572 01:15:31,920 --> 01:15:34,880 Speaker 4: in his elbow there. They're just we had a bad 1573 01:15:35,120 --> 01:15:37,280 Speaker 4: second half. I don't expect that again, even though they 1574 01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:39,600 Speaker 4: are a bit of a pain in our side. But 1575 01:15:40,160 --> 01:15:42,800 Speaker 4: now we're eight and two, and it gets interesting because 1576 01:15:42,840 --> 01:15:46,800 Speaker 4: now we got San Francisco Thursday night at home Thanksgiving. Right, 1577 01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:50,719 Speaker 4: we got to win that one, and that that's revenge 1578 01:15:50,760 --> 01:15:53,720 Speaker 4: to me. I'm winning that, sorry guy, I'm taking that win. 1579 01:15:54,000 --> 01:15:58,400 Speaker 4: We're four well, because I think it's favorable. I got Washington. 1580 01:15:58,479 --> 01:16:01,080 Speaker 4: The Rams will look Baltimore's to me is the is 1581 01:16:01,080 --> 01:16:04,439 Speaker 4: the litmus test? Right and okay, where are we truly? 1582 01:16:04,520 --> 01:16:07,320 Speaker 4: And if we lose that one, we'll have to redefine 1583 01:16:07,320 --> 01:16:09,240 Speaker 4: ourselves a little bit with you know, the forty nine 1584 01:16:09,320 --> 01:16:11,759 Speaker 4: ers in Dallas. But I'm getting that one at Dallas 1585 01:16:11,800 --> 01:16:15,839 Speaker 4: the following Thursday, which is really cool because the Cowboys 1586 01:16:15,840 --> 01:16:18,599 Speaker 4: play on Thursday. We play on Thursday, we all come 1587 01:16:18,680 --> 01:16:22,080 Speaker 4: back the following Thursday. That's gonna be a great game. 1588 01:16:22,800 --> 01:16:24,760 Speaker 4: I'll give that one to him. I don't you know. 1589 01:16:24,840 --> 01:16:27,880 Speaker 4: I think Cowboys are pretty good. We're gonna have a 1590 01:16:27,920 --> 01:16:29,120 Speaker 4: big following. 1591 01:16:28,720 --> 01:16:29,120 Speaker 3: There, though. 1592 01:16:29,200 --> 01:16:31,960 Speaker 4: I know there's a ton of people I've talked to 1593 01:16:32,000 --> 01:16:34,160 Speaker 4: there going there. So now we're nine and three, we're 1594 01:16:34,200 --> 01:16:36,439 Speaker 4: out of forty nine ers. I got to give that 1595 01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:38,280 Speaker 4: one to them, even though I think we're gonna beat them. 1596 01:16:38,320 --> 01:16:40,600 Speaker 4: I just split, you know, Yeah, we split it. So 1597 01:16:40,760 --> 01:16:45,160 Speaker 4: now we're nine and four Philadelphia at home. Look, it's 1598 01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:47,720 Speaker 4: proven time. We got to get that one. Ten and four. 1599 01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:49,439 Speaker 4: I think we match up well with them too, But 1600 01:16:49,680 --> 01:16:52,120 Speaker 4: that'll be a that'll be a playoff game. And you 1601 01:16:52,240 --> 01:16:53,919 Speaker 4: got Tennessee at Tennessee. 1602 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:55,040 Speaker 3: Do we win that one. 1603 01:16:55,120 --> 01:16:57,439 Speaker 4: I'm winning the one at home in Philly. Yeah, I'm 1604 01:16:57,439 --> 01:17:00,679 Speaker 4: going ten and four. Look, I'm taking us. You asked 1605 01:17:00,680 --> 01:17:03,160 Speaker 4: me if we're a Super Bowl cowper defense. Then we're 1606 01:17:03,160 --> 01:17:05,160 Speaker 4: at Tennessee and we got Pittsburgh in Arizona. 1607 01:17:05,479 --> 01:17:06,719 Speaker 3: You win those, you win those? 1608 01:17:06,760 --> 01:17:08,960 Speaker 4: Come on, I mean, what if we stumble on one 1609 01:17:08,960 --> 01:17:12,360 Speaker 4: of those. We're talking thirteen and four, twelve and five. 1610 01:17:12,479 --> 01:17:16,080 Speaker 4: It's so weird, odd number. But that's why this game, 1611 01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:19,200 Speaker 4: this Sunday is so big. Yeah, so big. 1612 01:17:19,479 --> 01:17:24,200 Speaker 3: I agree one hundred percent with your analysis of the schedule. 1613 01:17:24,680 --> 01:17:28,280 Speaker 3: The only thing that would derail anything that happens knock 1614 01:17:28,320 --> 01:17:33,280 Speaker 3: on wood are players injuries going down, right, and at 1615 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:35,360 Speaker 3: some point someone's gonna go down. That's just how the 1616 01:17:35,439 --> 01:17:38,760 Speaker 3: NFL works. Hopefully it's not someone that you really depend on. 1617 01:17:38,920 --> 01:17:40,320 Speaker 3: But on the flip side, you can look at the 1618 01:17:40,360 --> 01:17:43,519 Speaker 3: other teams and say they're gonna deal with the same thing. Right, 1619 01:17:43,520 --> 01:17:45,240 Speaker 3: You got to say healthy. We see the forty nine 1620 01:17:45,320 --> 01:17:48,640 Speaker 3: ers what they're dealing with in their health. Matthew Stafford 1621 01:17:49,439 --> 01:17:51,280 Speaker 3: is an old man in the NFL. We'll see how 1622 01:17:51,360 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 3: that works. Dak Prescott is one of the most unreliable 1623 01:17:55,040 --> 01:17:57,960 Speaker 3: expensive quarterbacks the league has to offer for you. And 1624 01:17:58,040 --> 01:18:02,760 Speaker 3: then who is Tennessee? Well will Levice through for three touchdowns? 1625 01:18:02,800 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 2: Yea? 1626 01:18:03,160 --> 01:18:06,000 Speaker 3: Four touchdowns? Last week? Did they win the game tonight? 1627 01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:07,920 Speaker 3: Been paying attention to anybody? 1628 01:18:08,160 --> 01:18:10,439 Speaker 4: They were up like ten or thirteen? Nothing? 1629 01:18:10,680 --> 01:18:14,639 Speaker 3: We Steelers won. Steelers came back one, and everyone's got 1630 01:18:14,640 --> 01:18:15,160 Speaker 3: that game. 1631 01:18:15,360 --> 01:18:18,040 Speaker 4: Let me always tough, but we got we got the 1632 01:18:18,040 --> 01:18:21,519 Speaker 4: Steelers at home. Can I ask you a question? 1633 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:24,519 Speaker 3: You can ask me whatever you want to, Paul you. 1634 01:18:24,640 --> 01:18:28,559 Speaker 4: We were talking about injuries. What's the one player on 1635 01:18:28,600 --> 01:18:30,559 Speaker 4: this team we can't lose? 1636 01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:33,960 Speaker 3: It's Gino Gino. 1637 01:18:34,040 --> 01:18:38,960 Speaker 4: I agree with that, don't get me wrong, And it 1638 01:18:38,960 --> 01:18:42,559 Speaker 4: would hurt us because Genos is our leader and though 1639 01:18:43,040 --> 01:18:46,000 Speaker 4: but I'm like, you know, I think I think Drew 1640 01:18:46,280 --> 01:18:49,200 Speaker 4: could could weather the storm for us. But okay, take 1641 01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:50,120 Speaker 4: away the quarterback. 1642 01:18:50,160 --> 01:18:50,760 Speaker 3: He's got to win. 1643 01:18:51,000 --> 01:18:55,519 Speaker 4: Well, I think we could, is my point. Forget the quarterback, namely, 1644 01:18:55,640 --> 01:18:58,760 Speaker 4: one player we can't lose right now. 1645 01:18:58,800 --> 01:19:02,200 Speaker 3: The ways playing I think is Joy and Brooks. 1646 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 4: No, I'm with you on it. We lost Cross. 1647 01:19:07,360 --> 01:19:08,960 Speaker 3: You can't be with me both times to come with 1648 01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:10,240 Speaker 3: someone else? Who do you think it? 1649 01:19:10,840 --> 01:19:11,599 Speaker 4: Number twenty one? 1650 01:19:11,720 --> 01:19:12,519 Speaker 3: I was gonna say that. 1651 01:19:12,760 --> 01:19:17,400 Speaker 4: I just what he does match up inside outside, his toughness. 1652 01:19:17,560 --> 01:19:21,000 Speaker 4: To me, if it makes us a complete secondary, I'd 1653 01:19:21,040 --> 01:19:22,880 Speaker 4: hate to lose anybody. But I think we have depth 1654 01:19:22,960 --> 01:19:24,760 Speaker 4: that a lot of positions that one, to me would 1655 01:19:24,800 --> 01:19:25,160 Speaker 4: really hurt. 1656 01:19:25,280 --> 01:19:27,920 Speaker 3: Okay, I ain't mad at it.
