1 00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,920 Speaker 1: For the Kansas City Chiefs fourteen consecutive wins. That's seventh 2 00:00:03,960 --> 00:00:07,440 Speaker 1: best in NFL history. But it's a culture, a culture 3 00:00:07,480 --> 00:00:10,160 Speaker 1: that started all the way back in twenty thirteen, but 4 00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: it's been improved by the year. This week on Defending 5 00:00:14,760 --> 00:00:18,000 Speaker 1: the Kingdom, we will look at Brett Veitch Never Sleeps 6 00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:22,480 Speaker 1: two point zero. A culture enhanced. But it's also Bronco 7 00:00:22,560 --> 00:00:25,160 Speaker 1: Week and as always, Defending the Kingdom brought to you 8 00:00:25,239 --> 00:00:31,480 Speaker 1: by Ticketmaster Kareem Hunt right side Powik he is give 9 00:00:31,560 --> 00:00:35,600 Speaker 1: it time, touchdown turns on City. 10 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: It's a lot off touchdown. 11 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 3: How everyone. 12 00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: I'm Mitch Holt's voice of the Chiefs along with senior 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,040 Speaker 1: team reporter Matt McMullen. Yes, it is the Salute to 14 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: Service game. The Chiefs will play Sunday at noon. We 15 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: have a new game. I know it's what we're playing 16 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: at noon on a Sunday and it'll be the Salute 17 00:00:55,720 --> 00:01:00,240 Speaker 1: to Service game. Always exciting. But oh, I love the 18 00:01:00,240 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: way that this franchise was really kind of set the 19 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:05,320 Speaker 1: example for the rest of the National Football League long 20 00:01:05,360 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 1: ago in starting this tribute in salute to service for 21 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,320 Speaker 1: those who have served in the past, are currently serving 22 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:13,960 Speaker 1: and to encourage those to serve. 23 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 3: In the future. 24 00:01:14,360 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's really cool. We're lucky to be right in 25 00:01:17,080 --> 00:01:18,960 Speaker 2: the middle of the country and there is a bunch 26 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 2: of world famous military institutions kind of nearby. White Man 27 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 2: Air Base is one of the most famous ones, but 28 00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:28,280 Speaker 2: also Fort Levenworth not too far away, Fort Riley not 29 00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,920 Speaker 2: too far away out in your neck of the woods. 30 00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:32,959 Speaker 2: So and we've been to these military bases. We've had 31 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 2: these service members come here for games stuff like that. 32 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,200 Speaker 2: We've had a chance to really get to know them 33 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:39,440 Speaker 2: and meet them. It's what it's all about. If it 34 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,000 Speaker 2: wasn't for them and their sacrifices, we couldn't be doing 35 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 2: what we're doing. So it's awesome that we have a 36 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 2: game to honor and celebrate them. We do that every day, 37 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,560 Speaker 2: but this particular game is of particular importance. 38 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: I like what you said about the importance of these 39 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 1: military installations. Fort Levenworth is Command General Staff College where 40 00:01:57,720 --> 00:01:59,800 Speaker 1: our allies are trained. It's called the West point of 41 00:01:59,800 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: White Point. If you want to be a general in 42 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 1: the United States Army or of the other branches, you're 43 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: going to spend time at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. Fort Riley, 44 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,040 Speaker 1: home of the Big Red One, the first Infant Division, 45 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:13,880 Speaker 1: one of the most famous military units in all of 46 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: world history. You mentioned Whiteman Air Force Base, home of 47 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:21,440 Speaker 1: the B two bomber in that group, McConnell Air Force 48 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,959 Speaker 1: Base in Wichita, Fort Leonardwood, Missouri, which is the Chemical 49 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: Warfare military police engineers. I've been a part of the 50 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 1: fifth Engineer Battalion there down through the years. And I'm 51 00:02:33,600 --> 00:02:35,360 Speaker 1: going to leave somebody out here of the Coast Guard 52 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: pace centers into Peaka, Kansas. Like the Coast Guard, I mean, 53 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 1: where's the Norse, the where's the nearest coast. Well, if 54 00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 1: you're gonna get paid in the Coast Guard, you're gonna 55 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: get paid through folks in Tapeka, Kansas who show up 56 00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 1: every year at training camp, all of the branches honored 57 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: during Salute to Service. And I like this, Yeah, I'm 58 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:53,720 Speaker 1: gonna show some of my Army bias here. Looks like 59 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: the tenth Mountain Division. Remember the Army Navy game when 60 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: Army came out in uniforms like this, the tenth Mountain 61 00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:02,239 Speaker 1: Division And it was snowing that day. Uh huh, it was. 62 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 1: It was awesome. You study the history of the tenth 63 00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: Mountain Division. Oh my goodness. 64 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: And I'll add one more thing too. When I went 65 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: over to Germany last year before our game, because I 66 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 2: was over there for a week to kind of rile 67 00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 2: up support and excitement, we went to a couple of 68 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,560 Speaker 2: military bases over there, including Ramstein Air Base, which is 69 00:03:20,639 --> 00:03:24,000 Speaker 2: like a city. It's incredible. It's like fifty thousand Americans 70 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 2: in the middle of Germany. What was cool though, is 71 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:28,560 Speaker 2: I was with Thoughte Hall and he would do like 72 00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: autograph sessions, and because there are so many like military 73 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:35,040 Speaker 2: bases around this area, people that would be stationed at 74 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,160 Speaker 2: Whitman or Fort leonard Wood or Levenworth. If they came 75 00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: from a place and they didn't really have a team, 76 00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 2: they'd be near Kansas City and would kind of get 77 00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 2: into the culture and everything and then they move on, 78 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 2: but would stick as Chefs fans. And there were so 79 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 2: many people I met in Germany who were from somewhere else. 80 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 2: They never even have been to Kansas City besides their 81 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 2: time in the service, but they were like, I just 82 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:56,560 Speaker 2: became a Chiefs fan and I've been a Chefs fan 83 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,160 Speaker 2: ever since. So really cool. 84 00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, and don't leave anybody out here, But still some 85 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: of the most important militaranstallations in the world. And I 86 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,520 Speaker 1: love Ramstein in the fact that because it's not just 87 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: salute to service, it's also our allies. Let's be honest. 88 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 1: The world is not a pristine place and there are 89 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 1: enemies of what we value, and the NATO nations obviously 90 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:25,640 Speaker 1: are our allies throughout the world. In Ramstein's so important 91 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: where it's located and its importance. 92 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, you feel it when you're there too, Like you 93 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 2: see the planes landing there and that's protecting the world 94 00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: right there. From Ramstein, it's incredible. 95 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 1: And our allies have come to the States Rosecrans, which 96 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: is the airfield in Saint Joseph, at training camp the 97 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 1: one thirty five, the training on the one thirty five. 98 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 1: They come from all over the world. At training camp. 99 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: There will be if you go stay at the Stony 100 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: Creek Hotel in Saint Joseph during camp, you will have 101 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,839 Speaker 1: during your breakfast in the morning, you will have officers 102 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: training for the one thirty five from all over the 103 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:04,919 Speaker 1: world in Saint Joseph. 104 00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's pretty cool, pretty cool stuff. 105 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:08,880 Speaker 3: I think it's I love it. I love this. 106 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: One of my favorite weeks of course was salute the 107 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 1: service and the way that our franchise has just done 108 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:19,480 Speaker 1: so many things and does it three hundred and sixty 109 00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,920 Speaker 1: five days a year, and again in honoring our military, 110 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,239 Speaker 1: those who have served, serving and encouraging those to serve 111 00:05:27,200 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 1: in the important role that they have. So it's also 112 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:33,600 Speaker 1: about culture, and we're going to talk about enhancing the 113 00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,920 Speaker 1: culture of what Brett Veach has done in Brett Veach's 114 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 1: staff because this is an undertold story. I think the 115 00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:42,000 Speaker 1: culture that Coach Read brought here. We've talked about a 116 00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,719 Speaker 1: lot during the off season on season over the past 117 00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: several years, really twelve seasons of winning from what Andy 118 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: Reid has done. But we're also going to dive in 119 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,039 Speaker 1: to the brilliance of Brett Veach and his staff. And 120 00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:57,880 Speaker 1: I don't leave anybody out there, Mike Burganzi, Mike Bradway, 121 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 1: we go down the line, Tim Terry and others. Chris 122 00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: Shay is amazing in what he does in crunching the numbers. 123 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,919 Speaker 1: But still what we're going to focus on here and 124 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 1: then also get you ready for Denver because the culture 125 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,360 Speaker 1: will be challenged by the Denver Broncos is the fact 126 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 1: that Brett Veach has enhanced the culture. He has taken 127 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,360 Speaker 1: something that is very good and made it even better 128 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 1: with some key additions. And I think it's very understated. 129 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,840 Speaker 1: So we're going to try to dive into that. But 130 00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:29,039 Speaker 1: before we do so, let's go around the world. 131 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 2: Let's do it. I have fourteen today, for fourteen straight wins. 132 00:06:33,600 --> 00:06:35,479 Speaker 2: We take a moment and think about that. We've won 133 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,080 Speaker 2: fourteen consecutive games, fourteenth straight thinking. 134 00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:42,000 Speaker 1: We've beaten on the stages that these games have been won, 135 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: how the games have been won. 136 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:45,599 Speaker 3: This has not been an easy task. 137 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: Now and beating the elite teams in the National Football 138 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:53,599 Speaker 1: League on the road and at home and in Super 139 00:06:53,640 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 1: Bowls and in AFC Championship games in minus twenty eight 140 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:00,159 Speaker 1: win shill, this has been a remarkable run. 141 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: Beating the Ravens twice, forty nine, Ers twice, Bengals twice, 142 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: Chargers twice, Bills twice, Bills once hopefully twice here in 143 00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:12,520 Speaker 2: a couple of weeks. But yeah, just remarkable. Also, this 144 00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 2: is kind of fun. You know, we're eight and No. 145 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: Only eight to no team in the NFL seeking our 146 00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 2: twelfth consecutive winning season. This week. I still feel like 147 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: a season just started. But if we win this weekend, 148 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,920 Speaker 2: we will have locked up a twelfth consecutive winning season. 149 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:32,239 Speaker 2: All from Coach Rued, all from Coach Read. The Bills 150 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: are the next closest team in terms of active streak 151 00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 2: at five straight. Now they of course can lock up 152 00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: a sixth straight this year. But think about that. There 153 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:43,480 Speaker 2: are kids in seventh grade who are not going to 154 00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 2: know anything but Chiefs winning seasons. It gets back to 155 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,760 Speaker 2: your culture point. That just doesn't happen. So we've got 156 00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 2: to have perspective here. Remember that we were living in 157 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 2: the Golden era right now. Twelve straight winning seasons is nuts. 158 00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 2: Let's go around the world. I got a bunch, I 159 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,840 Speaker 2: got fourteen. So first of all, I connected our Cambodia fans. 160 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,840 Speaker 2: I've done it, so Todd and Bill they're going to 161 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:05,760 Speaker 2: link up in a Peano and pen Cambodia. I just 162 00:08:05,800 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 2: need a photo, that's all I ask for. Send me 163 00:08:07,600 --> 00:08:10,680 Speaker 2: a photo of you guys hanging out in Cambodia. Speaking 164 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: of Southeast Asia, I heard from David, who now lives 165 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: in Louisville, Kentucky, but lived in Laos for fifteen years 166 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 2: and said that during that time he did not miss 167 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 2: a single Chiefs game. And that was in the early 168 00:08:21,360 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 2: two thousands, so it was a lot harder than it 169 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 2: is now. It's still hard now, but like you can 170 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 2: find it online. Like back then, a lot harder. 171 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,600 Speaker 3: But think of the time in Laos when the game 172 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 3: is played. 173 00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:35,559 Speaker 2: He told the cool story.

And then lastly heard 342 00:15:46,160 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 2: from Ryan and he wanted to give you a shout 343 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,160 Speaker 2: out because he said after the Saints game he was 344 00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,320 Speaker 2: at the game. He shouted at you, instaid he was 345 00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 2: from Colby, Kansas. Yeah, and also home of the oasis 346 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 2: on the planes. Yep, but you turn around and the. 347 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,680 Speaker 1: Colby Community College Trojans too, so let's don't leave out 348 00:16:03,680 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: the Corby Community College Trojans. 349 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,840 Speaker 2: But he appreciated, like, you know, when you're on the field. 350 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 2: I bet it was after Field Pass or something. A 351 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,920 Speaker 2: million people around. It's loud. You got a job to do. 352 00:16:13,160 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: But he shouted at you that he was from Colby. 353 00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,240 Speaker 2: You turned around and said home of the Eagles, and 354 00:16:17,240 --> 00:16:18,960 Speaker 2: that meant a lot to him, and that's why you're 355 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:21,160 Speaker 2: the best. So he wanted to give you a shout out. 356 00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 2: That is all I've got today. That might have been 357 00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:24,880 Speaker 2: the most off the rails around the world segment we've 358 00:16:24,880 --> 00:16:26,000 Speaker 2: ever done. But that was fun. 359 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:30,840 Speaker 1: And he's not from Greenfield or Gove, which makes up 360 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:33,120 Speaker 1: the Wheatland Shockers, which actually have tied end now at 361 00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 1: Grenelle to be the green Field, Gove Wheedland Titans or 362 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: something like that. 363 00:16:40,640 --> 00:16:41,280 Speaker 3: Thunder Hawks. 364 00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 2: Okay, that's a cool one. 365 00:16:42,320 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. 366 00:16:42,800 --> 00:16:45,920 Speaker 2: I just love the Oasis of the plans because we'll 367 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,040 Speaker 2: be driving out to Denver to visit my wife's family. 368 00:16:48,200 --> 00:16:50,560 Speaker 2: Stop at the oasis. He get some food, there's a 369 00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,480 Speaker 2: dog park there, just hang out. Life is good. They 370 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: have the metal palm trees. 371 00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:55,760 Speaker 3: I know, I love it. 372 00:16:55,760 --> 00:16:56,280 Speaker 2: It's great. 373 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 3: Pip. But there many times Pip likes at place. 374 00:16:59,400 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 2: Oh she loves it. Yeah, a dog park in the 375 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 2: middle of Kansas on the middle of our drive. 376 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:06,280 Speaker 1: Okay, ten plus ten points. If then you take Pip 377 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:08,960 Speaker 1: to a Colby Eagle, a Goodland Cowboy football game. 378 00:17:09,000 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 2: We got to get her a bandana and everything. 379 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 3: Let's go orange and black. 380 00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,000 Speaker 2: All right, We're like twenty minutes and I haven't talked 381 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:15,800 Speaker 2: about football at all. 382 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,679 Speaker 1: No, but we're going to jump into a culture enhancement 383 00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,560 Speaker 1: what has been impressed on the two of us. And again, 384 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:25,560 Speaker 1: Brett Veach does an amazing job and his staff, and 385 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,520 Speaker 1: I know I'm going to leave lots of folks out. 386 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,399 Speaker 1: We try to dive into the offseason into those folks, 387 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 1: the unseen heroes of this franchise. But Brett Veach just 388 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:37,280 Speaker 1: does not sleep. He does not stop. We have seen 389 00:17:37,400 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 1: now what he has done in just recent times. But 390 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 1: I'm going to focus on five guys because this culture 391 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,360 Speaker 1: is I really think I was talking to Joe buck 392 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: about this Monday night. I even saw Kevin Harlan said, 393 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:52,040 Speaker 1: and Kurt Warner, I said, name a culture right now, 394 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:55,359 Speaker 1: the big four professional sports. It's better than the Kansas 395 00:17:55,359 --> 00:17:57,840 Speaker 1: City Chiefs. Look at the NFL, I mean, look at 396 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,320 Speaker 1: the NBA, look at the NHL. Look at Major League Baseball, 397 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,879 Speaker 1: not just the consistent winning, but how they're winning it, 398 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:07,359 Speaker 1: how they're doing it, and the superstars and their personalities. 399 00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 1: Coach Reid's personality, what Patrick's like, what Kelse is like. 400 00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,439 Speaker 1: But it has been enhanced by Brett Veach and what 401 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:20,159 Speaker 1: he has done. And let's start with Justin Reid. March seventeenth, 402 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:25,159 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. Former Houston Texan Justin Reid joins the 403 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:28,320 Speaker 1: Fold thirty two and nine in the regular season since 404 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,879 Speaker 1: he's been here, seven and zero in the playoffs, two 405 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:35,560 Speaker 1: hundred nineteen tackles. But more than that, the guy Again, 406 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,040 Speaker 1: if you can find the audio of the Chiefs Kingdom 407 00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:42,080 Speaker 1: Show from the Monday prior to the game that we 408 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:46,399 Speaker 1: played a week prior to the game we won against 409 00:18:46,440 --> 00:18:50,359 Speaker 1: the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, listen to Justin Reid. An amazing 410 00:18:50,440 --> 00:18:55,399 Speaker 1: human being, so smart, but he has enhanced this culture 411 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:56,480 Speaker 1: and made it even better. 412 00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:58,960 Speaker 2: One thing that stood out to me about him right 413 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:00,680 Speaker 2: away in his first time in camp with us a 414 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:02,840 Speaker 2: couple of years ago is he had just gotten paid 415 00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:05,320 Speaker 2: right and there are some players across the league that 416 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: they get paid and that kind of goes to their 417 00:19:07,160 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 2: head a little bit, and they're just like, we just 418 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:11,120 Speaker 2: got to show up, right, and I'm a really good player. 419 00:19:11,160 --> 00:19:13,040 Speaker 2: I don't have to worry about getting better every day. 420 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:17,120 Speaker 2: That's like the total opposite of Justin Reid. He showed 421 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:18,639 Speaker 2: up here on the first day like he was a 422 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:20,600 Speaker 2: rookie trying to make the team, even though he had 423 00:19:20,640 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 2: just signed a big deal, and he immediately wanted to 424 00:19:24,760 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 2: be a leader and a guy who could be a 425 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:28,640 Speaker 2: role model for the younger players. And at that point, 426 00:19:28,680 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 2: we had a lot of young players in that twenty 427 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:33,040 Speaker 2: twenty two draft class. And he talked about how he 428 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:35,360 Speaker 2: wanted this to be an attitude defense. And I asked 429 00:19:35,400 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: him about this a couple days ago. Think about how 430 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,600 Speaker 2: this defense has been so important to the last two 431 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,520 Speaker 2: title runs and of course to our run this year 432 00:19:43,560 --> 00:19:47,080 Speaker 2: as well. The attitude defense has become a thing. It's 433 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,680 Speaker 2: the best defense in the NFL. And he talked about 434 00:19:49,680 --> 00:19:52,240 Speaker 2: it before it became a thing. He wanted this thing 435 00:19:52,320 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 2: to evolve into what it is now, and he's one 436 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:58,639 Speaker 2: of the main reasons it's become this and it really 437 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 2: has its roots and just being player who got paid 438 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 2: who wanted to show everyone else, hey, I want to 439 00:20:03,920 --> 00:20:06,240 Speaker 2: be part of something special here. And he would write 440 00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 2: things on like little notes on his arms on his 441 00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:14,160 Speaker 2: wristband to remind himself of stuff like, Hey, even though 442 00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:15,760 Speaker 2: I just got paid, I'm not perfect. I'm not a 443 00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,679 Speaker 2: finished product. I want to get better every day. I 444 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,600 Speaker 2: remember these things in training camp and it's just so 445 00:20:19,680 --> 00:20:21,760 Speaker 2: cool to see how this defense has become what it 446 00:20:21,840 --> 00:20:23,720 Speaker 2: is now. And he's a big reason why. 447 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 3: I met his dad, I met his uncle. 448 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 1: It was last year, I think in Baltimore and right 449 00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:33,119 Speaker 1: before the AFC Championship game, met his cousins. It's an 450 00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:37,760 Speaker 1: incredibly impressive family, but Justin Reid has made this a 451 00:20:37,800 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 1: better place. Another one is Drew Tranquil March the twenty first, 452 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,280 Speaker 1: twenty twenty three. Tranquil since that time, nineteen and five 453 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 1: in the regular season, four and zero in the playoffs, 454 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,320 Speaker 1: six sacks, two for his fumbles, one hundred and twenty 455 00:20:49,320 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: four tackles, eight tackles in that AFC Championship game against Baltimore. 456 00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:56,959 Speaker 1: But even more than that, the perspective that he's brought 457 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: to make the subculture of the defense because when you 458 00:20:59,359 --> 00:21:02,480 Speaker 1: were talking about and read it's a subculture within a 459 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,359 Speaker 1: bigger culture, and then that gets micro down even to 460 00:21:05,400 --> 00:21:09,280 Speaker 1: your position group. But when Drew Trinkle walked into the building, 461 00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:13,320 Speaker 1: this was a better place. Again, humble approach, not the 462 00:21:13,359 --> 00:21:15,679 Speaker 1: smartest guy in the room. What can I do to 463 00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:18,360 Speaker 1: make this place better? And we've seen that manifest. 464 00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 2: I mean, just the ultimate steel. I mean, we got 465 00:21:20,560 --> 00:21:23,040 Speaker 2: him on like a Friday afternoon at three o'clock. There 466 00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:25,240 Speaker 2: was no one else in the building here because on 467 00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: Fridays in the off season sometimes it clears out in 468 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 2: the afternoon. And now I was at my desk just 469 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,199 Speaker 2: working on some stuff and we signed Drew Tranquil, Like 470 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,199 Speaker 2: what because we knew a lot about Drew because of 471 00:21:34,200 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 2: his time in. 472 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:37,360 Speaker 3: La Fasted four I mean eight times and four years. 473 00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 2: And he's just been such an important player for us 474 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:42,520 Speaker 2: over the last couple of years. And I love that 475 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:46,080 Speaker 2: he loves it here, and he loves it here, loves 476 00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,760 Speaker 2: the atmosphere, loves that it's kind of like a Friday 477 00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,879 Speaker 2: night lights high school football vibe in Kansas City. And 478 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,800 Speaker 2: we have the benefit of going all over the country 479 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 2: to watch the Chiefs play, and there are some places 480 00:21:58,760 --> 00:22:01,000 Speaker 2: that are like that. Buffalo's kind of like that, But 481 00:22:01,040 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 2: there's a lot of studies where the NFL team and 482 00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 2: the game on Sunday is just another thing happening, and 483 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 2: some people are into it, but most aren't. Well, in 484 00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:11,239 Speaker 2: Kansas City, even if you don't like football, even if 485 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,360 Speaker 2: you don't root for the Chiefs, you know what's going 486 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 2: on with the Chiefs game. You might have a Chief's 487 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 2: shirt in your closet because it's just what you do here. 488 00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 2: And I think Drew trank Will loves that. I also 489 00:22:21,359 --> 00:22:24,600 Speaker 2: remember when he first did his tour of the stadium, 490 00:22:25,000 --> 00:22:27,560 Speaker 2: his wife asked, like, this is a big stadium, Like 491 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 2: does it fill up? And he's like, oh yeah, Like 492 00:22:29,800 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 2: right away he was like the Chief's expert. He's like, 493 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:34,160 Speaker 2: oh yeah, this thing gets real full, Like it's so loud, 494 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 2: I can't wait. And it's just so cool to me 495 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 2: that he wanted to be a part of this and 496 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,000 Speaker 2: now he's been a part of not just this team, 497 00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:43,800 Speaker 2: but two straight Super Bowl champions and hopefully hopefully a 498 00:22:43,800 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 2: third straight here this year. 499 00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 1: Awesome dad, awesome husband, and just so cool that he's 500 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,040 Speaker 1: just soaking this in. The tears in his eyes after 501 00:22:53,080 --> 00:22:55,919 Speaker 1: winning that Super Bowl said everything about him. But he 502 00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,720 Speaker 1: has enhanced the culture in recent times. This is really 503 00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,120 Speaker 1: recent now of what Redveach is done to again, Beach 504 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,320 Speaker 1: never sleeps two point zero enhance the culture. Sama jp 505 00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:08,760 Speaker 1: Ran August thirtieth, twenty twenty four, the so called Chiefs 506 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:12,439 Speaker 1: killer becomes a Chief eight to oh since he's joined us. 507 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 1: We know about the touchdown running against the Chargers, but 508 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: in seventeen targets, thirteen catches, five catches for first downs 509 00:23:20,520 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 1: in the last three games, the Chiefs are now number 510 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:26,200 Speaker 1: one in the NFL and third down conversions. I don't 511 00:23:26,200 --> 00:23:30,120 Speaker 1: think it is any coincidence the fact that since Samaj 512 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,720 Speaker 1: p Ran has morphed into this system and this offense, 513 00:23:34,760 --> 00:23:37,080 Speaker 1: that the Chiefs have become the best on third down, 514 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 1: Because many of argued down through the years, at least 515 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 1: in recent years that p Run has been released one 516 00:23:41,760 --> 00:23:44,560 Speaker 1: of the top five third down backs in this league. 517 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,679 Speaker 1: He's thrilled to be here. He has also enhanced the culture, 518 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,320 Speaker 1: not just football, but in the hallway. 519 00:23:50,560 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: We were so excited when we got Sa t right, 520 00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: this is so fired up, and we're seeing kind of 521 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,879 Speaker 2: why we are fired up now because he's such a 522 00:23:56,880 --> 00:24:00,040 Speaker 2: weapon on third down. You know, since Week seven, the 523 00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:02,600 Speaker 2: Chiefs are thirty two of forty eight on third down 524 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 2: sixty seven percent, best mark in the NFL. They're also 525 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 2: eleven for thirteen in the red zone in terms of 526 00:24:08,080 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 2: touchdown efficiency, and Samaj is a big part of that. 527 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,679 Speaker 2: Chiefs have kind of developed into this ball control style 528 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 2: of offense, and when you can finish on third down, 529 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,200 Speaker 2: finish in the red zone, you're very difficult to beat 530 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 2: because teams can't get you off the field, and Samaj 531 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:24,400 Speaker 2: plays right into that mentality. Can I add one more 532 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,760 Speaker 2: that's not necessarily just this season, but has been the 533 00:24:26,840 --> 00:24:29,800 Speaker 2: last couple of years. Sureybe Justin Watson. We don't talk 534 00:24:29,800 --> 00:24:32,200 Speaker 2: about Justin Watson enough, but Justin Watson's the kind of 535 00:24:32,200 --> 00:24:34,800 Speaker 2: player who, when you signed with this team a couple 536 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:38,639 Speaker 2: years ago in like May or June, no guarantee of 537 00:24:38,680 --> 00:24:40,480 Speaker 2: a roster spot. I mean, it wasn't one of those 538 00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:42,120 Speaker 2: things where it's like, all right, you can pencil him 539 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 2: in day one as a starter for the Chiefs. But 540 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,119 Speaker 2: he earned everything that he has. I mean, he's earned 541 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:49,520 Speaker 2: his spot on this team, earned a role, and earned 542 00:24:49,560 --> 00:24:52,119 Speaker 2: the trust of Patrick Mahomes. And think about on Monday 543 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:54,639 Speaker 2: he had three catches for forty three yards, two catches 544 00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 2: moved the chains on third down. Just a solid, reliable player. 545 00:24:58,560 --> 00:25:02,320 Speaker 2: That's where Brettviach really wins. And Brett is obviously a 546 00:25:02,320 --> 00:25:05,160 Speaker 2: great talent evaluator hits on these first round picks, finds 547 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,120 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes all that that's a big part of it. 548 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,000 Speaker 2: But it's also finding players like Justin Watson who can 549 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,439 Speaker 2: come in here with not a lot of fanfare and 550 00:25:12,520 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 2: develop a role on this team. 551 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:14,359 Speaker 3: Thing. 552 00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:16,960 Speaker 1: I remember, Justin Watson is the very first you know, 553 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,440 Speaker 1: the pad OTAs was saying. 554 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:20,040 Speaker 3: Who is this guy? 555 00:25:20,080 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 1: Because he's really fast, Yeah, and he can catch the ball. 556 00:25:22,560 --> 00:25:24,359 Speaker 1: I mean he was Tampa Bay but didn't play a 557 00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:27,800 Speaker 1: lot there. Some but the fact that he also is 558 00:25:27,800 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: not just a chain mover which we saw on Monday night, 559 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 1: I mean really close to having a big touchdown. He's 560 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:36,280 Speaker 1: got close two sixty seven yard catches to his name. 561 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 1: But again, a culture enhancer, a man of faith, a 562 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 1: guy that is just there every day and terrific in 563 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,640 Speaker 1: not just being a part of all this, he makes 564 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 1: it better. Kareem Hunt September eighteenth, twenty twenty four, five 565 00:25:52,359 --> 00:25:55,480 Speaker 1: and zero since he's been here part of this red 566 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 1: zone renaissance. Do you realize before this last three games 567 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:02,400 Speaker 1: eleven of thirteen, the Chiefs were tied for twenty eighth 568 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: in the league in red zone they're twelfth. In three weeks, 569 00:26:06,320 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 1: they've gone from twenty eighth to twelfth in red zone offense. 570 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 1: It's nuts Hunt a part of that. Twenty two first 571 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: downs in running the ball since he's been here, five 572 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:21,440 Speaker 1: catches for first downs. That's twenty seven first downs from 573 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,280 Speaker 1: Koreem Hunt. Kareem Hunt, and we've seen him with the 574 00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 1: workload of twenty seven, twenty two, twenty one, twenty seven, 575 00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:30,560 Speaker 1: two one hundred yard rushing games. He's moving the chains. 576 00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:33,639 Speaker 1: It's second and six, it's second and five, it's third 577 00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 1: and two, very different than we had earlier in the season. 578 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 1: He is the happiest guy in America other than maybe 579 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:43,640 Speaker 1: de Hop They're tied for number one for mister happy 580 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 1: in the world. But they have come in, not they've 581 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,119 Speaker 1: come in and enhanced the culture in such a short time. 582 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 1: They are morphing into what we do here and how 583 00:26:54,680 --> 00:26:57,119 Speaker 1: we do it, not fighting against it. Because on the 584 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,679 Speaker 1: other side of the story, Matt and this happens all 585 00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:01,119 Speaker 1: the time I'm in this league, and I've seen it 586 00:27:01,160 --> 00:27:03,959 Speaker 1: happen in my thirty one years with this franchise. You 587 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,600 Speaker 1: can sign guys, but they become even if they're talented players, 588 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:10,399 Speaker 1: they become a deterrent because they get in the way 589 00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:12,880 Speaker 1: of the way you do things and how you do it. 590 00:27:13,240 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 1: And so these guys have not They just not only 591 00:27:15,760 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 1: fit in, they make it even. 592 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,560 Speaker 2: Better and they buy in. That's really the thing. Particularly 593 00:27:19,560 --> 00:27:22,800 Speaker 2: when players get big money or have success elsewhere, they think, 594 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,399 Speaker 2: like my way works and I'm the guy. But for 595 00:27:26,440 --> 00:27:29,120 Speaker 2: whatever reason, because of the culture we have here, because 596 00:27:29,119 --> 00:27:31,080 Speaker 2: of what coach Reid has done here and Brett Vieach 597 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,560 Speaker 2: has done here, when guys come into this system, they 598 00:27:33,600 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 2: just want to be a part of it. They don't 599 00:27:34,960 --> 00:27:37,320 Speaker 2: really care what they've done before. Like whatever they're told 600 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 2: to do, I'm going to do that because these guys 601 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 2: win and that looks like fun. And we've heard free 602 00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,600 Speaker 2: agents that have signed here tell us that over the years, 603 00:27:44,640 --> 00:27:46,040 Speaker 2: like I want to go to that place because that 604 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 2: looks like fun, and I'll do whatever they tell me 605 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 2: to do. And yeah, Kareem, I talked about the ball 606 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,200 Speaker 2: control style of offense that we're playing. Kareem is the 607 00:27:53,280 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 2: key to it. I said it last week. Kareem has 608 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 2: been kind of like our MVP offensively over the last 609 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 2: several weeks because you look at the those third down 610 00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:03,359 Speaker 2: numbers and those red zone numbers, Kareem is right in 611 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,199 Speaker 2: the middle of that. Over the last three weeks, the 612 00:28:06,280 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 2: Chiefs rank third in the NFL and rushing attempts with 613 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 2: one hundred and three. You think we'd ever say that 614 00:28:11,040 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 2: about the Kansas City Chiefs, think third in the NFL 615 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 2: and rushing attempts over a certain span. But Kareem Hunt 616 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 2: has been that guy. We were joking before the game yesterday, like, 617 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:22,159 Speaker 2: all right, they got to give Kareem a little bit 618 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 2: of rest here tonight, Like and you're like, yeah, he'll 619 00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:27,240 Speaker 2: definitely get less tonight. Twenty seven carries, one hundred and 620 00:28:27,280 --> 00:28:31,320 Speaker 2: six rushing yards, twenty seven tough yards on the overtime drive. 621 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:34,440 Speaker 2: What a renaissance here for Kareem. Very happy for that guy. 622 00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: In a renaissance for DeAndre Hopkins. I mean here he 623 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,320 Speaker 1: is getting a shot. This goes back to tranquil never 624 00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: never won a playoff game, goes on the run and 625 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,880 Speaker 1: wins championship. I've talked about Carlos Dunlap a couple of 626 00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:51,000 Speaker 1: years ago. Here's Kareem Hunt, who's in that same category. 627 00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:54,440 Speaker 1: But here's DeAndre Hopkins. He has two playoff wins. He's 628 00:28:54,480 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: only played in six playoff games, and he was in 629 00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey's draft class of twenty thirteen. But d Hop 630 00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:03,960 Speaker 1: in just two games, twelve targets, the ten catches, the 631 00:29:03,960 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 1: two touchdowns on Monday Night Football. But what he has 632 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:10,160 Speaker 1: done for Travis Kelcey Kelsey in the two games since 633 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,400 Speaker 1: d Hop has been on the field has twenty eight 634 00:29:13,920 --> 00:29:18,960 Speaker 1: targets with twenty four catches, nearly two hundred yards and 635 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:19,680 Speaker 1: a touchdown. 636 00:29:20,640 --> 00:29:21,920 Speaker 3: That is not a coincidence. 637 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:24,920 Speaker 1: But de Hop has come in not going like, hey, 638 00:29:24,960 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: what's this plus all about? And you know here I 639 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: am get me the ball. He is walking around as 640 00:29:30,320 --> 00:29:32,480 Speaker 1: the happiest guy in America too. What can I do 641 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: to help us win? Exhibit A was his block to 642 00:29:36,640 --> 00:29:40,440 Speaker 1: allow Mcole Hardman on a one man screen to get 643 00:29:40,480 --> 00:29:42,800 Speaker 1: a double digit play on a quick rise up and throw. 644 00:29:43,160 --> 00:29:47,000 Speaker 1: But d Hop's block was spectacular. It's not just what 645 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,719 Speaker 1: he has done with his catches. It's the ripple effect 646 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: in how he's helping this entire team. He has enhanced 647 00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:55,320 Speaker 1: this culture in a short period of time. 648 00:29:56,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 2: D Hop and Kelse on Monday combined for twenty two catches, 649 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:02,920 Speaker 2: one hundred and eighty six yards, eleven first downs, and 650 00:30:02,960 --> 00:30:06,320 Speaker 2: two touchdowns. De Hop in that game by himself at 651 00:30:06,320 --> 00:30:09,080 Speaker 2: eight catches for eighty six yards, two touchdowns. Five of 652 00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:12,040 Speaker 2: his eight catches went for a first down and three 653 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:15,800 Speaker 2: of those were on third down, a touchdown, another touchdown, 654 00:30:16,600 --> 00:30:20,280 Speaker 2: and one of the most incredible thirty five yard catches 655 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 2: I think I've ever seen amidst triple coverage. I was 656 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 2: trying to process it, and Alex Mary, who's our social 657 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: media director, was sitting next to me and said, you've 658 00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:32,360 Speaker 2: got to wipe that smile off your face, like you 659 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 2: look like the happiest guy on earth. And I'm like, 660 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 2: did you see it? Did you see that? 661 00:30:37,160 --> 00:30:39,760 Speaker 1: For me, it felt like it had like a four 662 00:30:39,840 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: percent chance of good things happening. 663 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 2: Well, I actually know the exact number. According to next 664 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:46,680 Speaker 2: Gen Stats. I don't know how they compile this, it 665 00:30:46,440 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 2: had a twelve point three percent chance of being completed. 666 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:50,880 Speaker 2: And that seems high.
