Play of the Day, 18 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: poll question, stat of the day, all of that forthcoming. 19 00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 2: Congratulations to the Seahawks who dominated the Patriots twenty nine 20 00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:06,479 Speaker 2: to thirteen. Although it's an interesting way to say dominating 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: the Patriots, because it certainly felt that way, but it 22 00:01:09,560 --> 00:01:12,640 Speaker 2: was only nine to nothing, and you kept thinking, got ye, 23 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 2: if they get a pick six, they get a fumble, 24 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:18,880 Speaker 2: they get maybe a long run, something here, and we 25 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,800 Speaker 2: kept waiting for something here. And then we had an 26 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,479 Speaker 2: exciting fourth quarter. But it was one of those games 27 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,920 Speaker 2: where I kept thinking, is New England going to steal this? 28 00:01:27,920 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 2: This great defensive performance by Seattle will be wasted by 29 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,400 Speaker 2: a couple of plays. But give credit to Seattle. They 30 00:01:35,440 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 2: came up with big plays when they needed to. Drake 31 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:42,720 Speaker 2: May was sacked six times. Sam Donald played okay, Drake 32 00:01:42,800 --> 00:01:46,520 Speaker 2: May played okay in the fourth quarter. Kenneth Walker Junior, 33 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,640 Speaker 2: the third named Most Valuable Player. After the game, Sam 34 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 2: Darnold talked about what this moment meant. 35 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 3: Sam, What does this want it mean? 36 00:01:57,160 --> 00:02:03,280 Speaker 4: It's unbelievable, you know, just everything that's happened in my career, 37 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:04,920 Speaker 4: But to do it with this team, I wouldn't want 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,080 Speaker 4: it any other way. I'm so proud of our guys, 39 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:10,480 Speaker 4: our defense. I mean, I can't say enough great things 40 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 4: about our defense, our special teams. 41 00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 1: I know we won the. 42 00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 4: Super Bowl, but we could have been a little bit 43 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 4: better on offense. But I don't care about that right now. 44 00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:21,160 Speaker 4: It's an unbelievable feeling. Man, I'm just so happy for 45 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 4: the guys in the locker room and the coaches that 46 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 4: put in so much effort throughout the whole season. 47 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 3: That defense was spectacular. They were wonderful. 48 00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 2: And you know, I think we all thought during the 49 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:34,360 Speaker 2: year that New England was going to be there a 50 00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 2: year earlier because it's a very young team. They got 51 00:02:37,280 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: cap space, they got draft picks. I mean, they are 52 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,800 Speaker 2: set up for the future, and they did look like 53 00:02:41,919 --> 00:02:43,760 Speaker 2: they were a year or two early there. 54 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:44,760 Speaker 3: Seattle. 55 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 2: Wow, that was impressive really from start to finish, and 56 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: I thought Chris collins Worth brought up a great point. 57 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: New England's defense in the first half was so aggressive, 58 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:57,320 Speaker 2: overly aggressive, as if to say, we have to win 59 00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:00,919 Speaker 2: it with defense. We don't have enough offense. And that's 60 00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 2: why I picked Seattle to win twenty four to thirteen. 61 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 2: I didn't think New England could score twenty points. Therefore 62 00:03:07,840 --> 00:03:10,760 Speaker 2: it came down to could Seattle score twenty points. They 63 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 2: ended up with twenty nine. But Mike McDonald a lot 64 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 2: of praise. He was calling the defensive plays while being 65 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: the head coach, and that defense was everywhere swarming and 66 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:27,680 Speaker 2: even New England's Christian Gonzalezly he made some big plays, 67 00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: but you know, you had too many players on Seattle 68 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:36,000 Speaker 2: making too many plays. And Kenneth Walker when you're around 69 00:03:36,160 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 2: running backs like that because he's not tall and you go, 70 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 2: how is he so fast? 71 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 3: But he's so good. 72 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 2: And there's one play in particular, and Collinsworth even pointed 73 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 2: this out. He was kind of walking up to the 74 00:03:49,200 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 2: line of scrimmage. I mean, Leveon Bell created a whole 75 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,480 Speaker 2: new running style and here was Kenneth Walker just kind 76 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 2: of walking up and then boom, he sees his moment 77 00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:03,480 Speaker 2: and takes advantage of it. They had enough plays to 78 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 2: be able to keep New England's defense honest, but it 79 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:10,520 Speaker 2: doesn't matter the stats for Sam Donald, and I know you. 80 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 3: Can be really picky. 81 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 2: We'll go back and look at Tom Brady's first couple 82 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: of Super Bowls. Okay, they won with defense. They didn't 83 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:21,720 Speaker 2: ask much. Peyton Manning's last Super Bowl, he didn't do anything. 84 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: Sometimes you're along for the ride, but what you did 85 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 2: to get your team to that point where you can 86 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 2: be along for the ride. Give Sam Donald a lot 87 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,200 Speaker 2: of credit because you get kicked to the curb. You've 88 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 2: played for five teams and now you're a Super Bowl champ. 89 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: The Seahawks head coach Mike McDonald on the decision to 90 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: bring Sam Darnald to Seattle. 91 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 5: John deserves a lot of credit to that process, and 92 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 5: that's kind of on chartered waters that you have to navigate, 93 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,279 Speaker 5: and uh, you know it. To the outside eye probably 94 00:04:50,400 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 5: seem like it happened fast. But he did a great 95 00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,440 Speaker 5: job of guiding us through all those decisions. We're on 96 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 5: record with it. Clint had a relationship with him. There's 97 00:04:57,400 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 5: a lot of people on our going that new Sam that. 98 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 3: Could vouch for who he was as a person. The 99 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: tape backed it up. 100 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:04,880 Speaker 5: I think people made too big of a deal of 101 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 5: him of like the last two games in the season, 102 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:09,800 Speaker 5: which I thought was as dumb, like watch the whole season. 103 00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,680 Speaker 5: The guy played great all year. He came into Limit 104 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,919 Speaker 5: and beat us. They won like fourteen games. So Clinton 105 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 5: knew he could do the stuff that we want him 106 00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 5: to do in our offense. And then how's the rock 107 00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 5: and roll. 108 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:23,159 Speaker 2: I think it's kind of sloppy take if you say 109 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:25,240 Speaker 2: it was not a good football game, because then you're 110 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,800 Speaker 2: missing out on the dominance of that Seattle defense. I mean, 111 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 2: you can go back to the eighty five Bears against 112 00:05:30,680 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 2: the Patriots. He might say that wasn't a good game. 113 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 2: You're missing the point. You're watching a historical performance by 114 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,440 Speaker 2: the defense. And that's what you had with Seattle, the 115 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: fourth Super Bowl team in history to allow fewer than 116 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 2: fourteen points, get six or more sacks, and score a 117 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: defensive touchdown. The Broncos did that in Super Bowl fifty 118 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:53,600 Speaker 2: when they dominated the Panthers. The Bears did that when 119 00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:56,600 Speaker 2: they beat the Patriots forty six to ten, and then 120 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: the Raiders, going back to the Jack Squire pick six 121 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 2: on Joe Thiisman that was thirty eight to nine. That's 122 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:08,680 Speaker 2: pretty good company there with some great defenses. And I know, 123 00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 2: and it comes down to, as I tell you every 124 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 2: single year at this time, if you can run the 125 00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 2: football and play defense, you can win the Super Bowl. 126 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,359 Speaker 2: If you get to this point this game, and given 127 00:06:20,440 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 2: all the tension and how Super Bowls get out of 128 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 2: hand one mistake and then it leads to another, if 129 00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,280 Speaker 2: you can run the football, be as close to turnover free, 130 00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: and play great defense, you'll win. And that's what happened 131 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 2: again last night. So all the fanfare for throwing the 132 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:41,520 Speaker 2: ball wide open offenses. It came down to Kenneth Walker 133 00:06:41,600 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 2: running the football and that defense being unbelievable. All right, 134 00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,280 Speaker 2: Seaton Poll question for hour one is going to be what. 135 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:50,159 Speaker 3: Got a couple options here for you? 136 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:54,039 Speaker 6: Sort of off that topic, which unit deserves most credit 137 00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:58,800 Speaker 6: for Seattle's win? The pass rush, secondary, run game or 138 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:00,520 Speaker 6: special teams. 139 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:05,760 Speaker 2: Special teams, special teams. I mean, everybody was really good 140 00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: that you mentioned, But when they place such an emphasis 141 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,280 Speaker 2: on special teams in Seattle, and when your field goal 142 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:18,119 Speaker 2: kicker and your punter are changing the game, they're making 143 00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: their field goals and their punts are inside the ten 144 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 2: yard line, huge, massive, and what that does psychologically when 145 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:29,360 Speaker 2: you had the ball at the twenty or twenty five, 146 00:07:30,080 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 2: or you have it at the one and you're not 147 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,720 Speaker 2: moving the ball at all and you have no big 148 00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:40,960 Speaker 2: play capabilities. I thought that was just devastating for the Patriots. 149 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:46,440 Speaker 2: But that pass rush, if you don't have to blitz man, 150 00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 2: is that an advantage? And Tony Dungee talked about that. 151 00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,880 Speaker 2: We've seen these moments where you go, they don't even 152 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: have to rush another guy, they just have four and 153 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,960 Speaker 2: that allows the secondary. If you got four going, you 154 00:08:01,040 --> 00:08:03,360 Speaker 2: got a bunch of guys back there, and you had 155 00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: nobody who was going to beach over the top. Seattle 156 00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 2: never worried about getting beat deep. It was all right 157 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:10,000 Speaker 2: in front of them. 158 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 3: Yeah. 159 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 7: Paul Michael Dixon the punter for the Seahawks. Seven punts 160 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,880 Speaker 7: forty eight yard average, three of them down inside the 161 00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,400 Speaker 7: six yard line, two returns for a total. 162 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:20,040 Speaker 3: Of four yards. 163 00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 7: He also was the holder on all the kicks, and 164 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 7: he got a couple of bats snaps, but to. 165 00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,320 Speaker 2: Be able to pin them back. I don't think he 166 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:31,040 Speaker 2: had a touchback in the playoffs. Seattle didn't have a 167 00:08:31,080 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 2: turnover in the playoffs. I mean, those things don't happen. 168 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 2: And I think with Sam Darnold you were probably waiting 169 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:40,320 Speaker 2: for now. He didn't play good in the first half, 170 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 2: and I thought New England had a couple of chances, 171 00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:48,360 Speaker 2: certainly for interceptions, maybe a pick six. But that Seattle 172 00:08:48,400 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 2: defense was fun to watch, dominating, and that left side 173 00:08:52,440 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: of the Patriots offensive line, two rookies over there. I 174 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 2: was fixated on that side of the ball for the 175 00:09:00,760 --> 00:09:04,280 Speaker 2: first I was just I kept watching and those guys 176 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:10,960 Speaker 2: were drowning. They were drowning there in Seattle, Green and 177 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 2: you could tell Drake May. I mean, that's where you 178 00:09:13,040 --> 00:09:17,160 Speaker 2: see ghosts. Sam Darnold famously said he saw ghosts. I'm 179 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,920 Speaker 2: gonna guess Drake May saw some ghosts and will continue 180 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 2: to see some ghosts. And I know afterwards he talked 181 00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:25,360 Speaker 2: about his shoulder. There was talk about the shoulder during 182 00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: Super Bowl week. He got it shot up to play. 183 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,959 Speaker 2: Might be one of those where he gets it cleaned 184 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: out in the off season. I don't know how much 185 00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: of a factor that had. I don't know if it 186 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:38,720 Speaker 2: would have mattered if he was completely healthy. Just there 187 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,280 Speaker 2: was no time to think when he went back there. 188 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,880 Speaker 2: All right, So we got a pull question on the 189 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,360 Speaker 2: part of the Seahawks team that stood out the most. 190 00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:49,440 Speaker 6: Yeah, and then this is sort of cut from the 191 00:09:49,440 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 6: same cloth though, But what actually decided last night's game? 192 00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 6: Was it the Seahawks pass rush and the Patriots offensive line, 193 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 6: special teams or coaching? 194 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 3: Man? 195 00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,000 Speaker 8: You got it. 196 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,439 Speaker 2: I mean, it's all of the above, Like that was 197 00:10:03,559 --> 00:10:09,160 Speaker 2: total team total and the only dip was really JSN 198 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 2: wasn't a fact. I mean, imagine that if I said, yeah, 199 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 2: they won and JSN wasn't a factor at all, and 200 00:10:14,800 --> 00:10:19,960 Speaker 2: he wasn't and Sam played subpar, but they ended up dominating, 201 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: you know, to win it in double figures. And you 202 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 2: kept wondering, if you know, is there something more that 203 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 2: New England can do. And here's Josh McDaniels, who has 204 00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,120 Speaker 2: more experience than any other offensive coordinator in NFL history 205 00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:36,840 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl, and I kept thinking, I want 206 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:38,400 Speaker 2: Drake made to get the ball and get it out 207 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:41,280 Speaker 2: of his hands, like right away, you know, almost a 208 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 2: Brady like playbook of just get it out. I don't 209 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 2: care where it's going, get it out, because if you 210 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,880 Speaker 2: go back and you're seven steps back and you got 211 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:54,640 Speaker 2: that rush coming off the edge, you're gonna have a 212 00:10:54,679 --> 00:10:55,760 Speaker 2: lot of company all night long. 213 00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:57,839 Speaker 6: This time we're gonna stop him. Yeah, let's just run 214 00:10:57,880 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 6: it again. This time we'll stop him. Hell, dude, what 215 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 6: are you doing. 216 00:11:01,400 --> 00:11:02,920 Speaker 3: I think we're tiring them out. 217 00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:06,439 Speaker 2: Now we can throw that pass and then you're going, Okay, 218 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 2: who's their deep receiver and they don't have one, And 219 00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:14,200 Speaker 2: it goes back to it wasn't a great offense, and 220 00:11:14,880 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 2: Drake may what he did during the regular season, I 221 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 2: still would look at him as the MVP because of 222 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: what he did during the regular season and that's what 223 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,880 Speaker 2: the vote is. You know, they tabulate that before the 224 00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 2: postseason starts. He did not have a good postseason at all, 225 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 2: sacked fumbles, did not play well at all, but they 226 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 2: somehow got to this point. Give credit to Vrabel, he 227 00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: did a wonderful job. He's your coach of the year. 228 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:44,680 Speaker 2: But man, oh man, Mike McDonald had a game plan. Yeah, seedon. 229 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 6: I love the Sam Donald redemption story. And it's unfortunate 230 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 6: that Drake May had a terrible postseason but really played 231 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,600 Speaker 6: a terrible game. And I do think it's funny though 232 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 6: that Drake May threw for more touchdown passes last night 233 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:58,880 Speaker 6: than Sam Donald, and Sam Donald resurrected his career off 234 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 6: of this run. Andy's got to go back to the 235 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,880 Speaker 6: drawing board. Well, like things that don't add up when 236 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:07,440 Speaker 6: you look at them on paper, got to get some weapons, Yeah, 237 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,560 Speaker 6: gotta get some weapons. And I thought that they were 238 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 6: going to be able to run the football. I really did, 239 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 6: and then all of a sudden, Drake May sprinkles in 240 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:16,679 Speaker 6: some passes and that's all you want. 241 00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:19,920 Speaker 2: Keep the defense honest, and they couldn't do that. That 242 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 2: defense basically said, we don't care what you're doing. We're 243 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,040 Speaker 2: coming after you every single play. Yeah, Pony, I. 244 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 7: Know the first three quarters were rough, but there was 245 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:31,600 Speaker 7: a point in the fourth quarter they were down the 246 00:12:31,640 --> 00:12:33,959 Speaker 7: Patriots down nineteen to seven. They had the ball with 247 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 7: ten minutes and forty seconds to go. They go on 248 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,840 Speaker 7: a seven play, forty yard drive. They're across the fifty. 249 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,600 Speaker 7: It's second and three, and they took that shot downfield 250 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:45,480 Speaker 7: that was intercepted. I mean, there's a lot of time left. 251 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,160 Speaker 7: I think that interception there was eight forty nine on 252 00:12:48,200 --> 00:12:51,680 Speaker 7: the clock. If they somehow get that to nineteen fourteen, 253 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,360 Speaker 7: the pressure changes quickly. 254 00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 2: I was wondering, and I kept thinking I'd be passing 255 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 2: on first down. I would be passing on the non 256 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 2: passing downs because I just have to switch this up. 257 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:07,800 Speaker 2: And Josh McDaniels did not have a good night calling plays. 258 00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:11,079 Speaker 2: It just felt like Seattle kind of figured out there 259 00:13:11,160 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 2: was no rhythm with New England, and you're and you know, 260 00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,600 Speaker 2: Tariko and Collins were at one point thought that the 261 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,920 Speaker 2: Patriots were gonna get some rhythm. Then I think they 262 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,959 Speaker 2: had a turnover right after that. You were just waiting 263 00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: for something where you'd go. I mean, their drive would 264 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 2: be like seven plays forty yards that would be a 265 00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: sustained drive for New England. And you know, meanwhile, Kenneth Walker, 266 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:39,240 Speaker 2: you know those chunk plays played great, but it still 267 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: comes down to no turnovers, playing great defense and making 268 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:45,319 Speaker 2: them make mistakes. 269 00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:46,839 Speaker 3: Yes, Tom, I. 270 00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:48,719 Speaker 9: Was wondering at halftime, as good as a coach as 271 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,160 Speaker 9: Mike Rabel is or appears to be, what do you 272 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 9: do at halftime when a team's got that good of 273 00:13:53,520 --> 00:13:55,240 Speaker 9: a defense. You know, you always say like you got 274 00:13:55,280 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 9: to make the necessary adjustments. Is there anything he really 275 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 9: could have said or done that would have significantly changed 276 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:01,280 Speaker 9: is what they did in the second half. 277 00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:03,439 Speaker 2: I would have said, we're down nine to nothing. All 278 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,040 Speaker 2: we need to do is go out there, we get 279 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: the ball, start second second half. Let's let's go down 280 00:14:09,280 --> 00:14:12,760 Speaker 2: there and score touchdown. Worst we get a field goal. 281 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: Now we're down six, let's put the pressure on them. 282 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,480 Speaker 2: But I just kept waiting for some kind of rhythm 283 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 2: there and it never happened. It just felt like they 284 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: were like, I don't know what are we doing. I 285 00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,920 Speaker 2: don't know, what do you think? I don't know, Hey, 286 00:14:26,960 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 2: we better block that side of the line. 287 00:14:28,880 --> 00:14:33,720 Speaker 6: Yeah, And that second half opening drive I think is 288 00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 6: just another three and out. Yeah, well that was crucially 289 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:39,600 Speaker 6: important to at least move the chains, get a first down. 290 00:14:39,720 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 2: All right, Well, get the phone calls here. Also, Bill 291 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 2: Cower will join us the Hall of Famer on loan 292 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: from CBS eight seven to seven to three DP show 293 00:14:48,000 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: just getting started on this Monday.

Eight seven 323 00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 2: to seven three DP show email address Dpadanpatrick dot com, 324 00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,760 Speaker 2: Twitter handle, a DP show that Devin Weatherspoon. He was 325 00:16:32,800 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 2: everywhere he could have been in the MVP race as well, 326 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 2: because man was he disrupting things. But it came down 327 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:43,240 Speaker 2: to run the football, play defense, don't turn the ball over, 328 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: a pretty good formula. Bill Cower, Hall of Famer, joining 329 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 2: us on the program. 330 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:51,040 Speaker 3: Coach. Your reaction overall to the game last night. 331 00:16:52,040 --> 00:16:53,800 Speaker 8: Well, then I think it was a game to me 332 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 8: that you just stated it was a defensive battle. I 333 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 8: thought even the New England Patriots for the first three 334 00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,440 Speaker 8: quarters really they kept him in the football game and 335 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,120 Speaker 8: it was it was a series of field position back 336 00:17:06,160 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 8: and forth, not making mistakes. But I think obviously Kenneth 337 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 8: Walker had a couple of big runs. I felt like 338 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:14,240 Speaker 8: Newly maybe gone away from the running game a little 339 00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 8: bit in the third quarter when the game was still there. 340 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:18,840 Speaker 8: I think a big play also was the end of 341 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,800 Speaker 8: the second quarter with Christian Gonzalez made a great player 342 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,679 Speaker 8: on Jackson Smith and a jigba and just dropped that 343 00:17:24,760 --> 00:17:26,800 Speaker 8: ball near the goal line, which they could have come 344 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 8: away with just being down a six or three nothing 345 00:17:30,600 --> 00:17:32,679 Speaker 8: as opposed to six to nothing at the halftime. So 346 00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 8: it was it was a game again, and I thought 347 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:39,200 Speaker 8: two great defenses had a great game for fans, and 348 00:17:39,200 --> 00:17:42,119 Speaker 8: they wouldn't joined offense. But it was a game that 349 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:45,239 Speaker 8: the defense of Seattle was very, very stout, and I 350 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 8: think again Sam Donald, as he's done in these playoffs, 351 00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,240 Speaker 8: did not turn the football over, made good decisions, his 352 00:17:50,440 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 8: elusive He was very elusive in the pocket. I think 353 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 8: he negated a lot of sacks that Newton thought they 354 00:17:56,840 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 8: would have had a converser. On the other side, Drake 355 00:17:59,160 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 8: May had a very tough time stand in that pocket. 356 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,439 Speaker 2: What's it like going into halftime? Now you're down nine nothing, 357 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:08,359 Speaker 2: and it's a halftime that's three times longer than a 358 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 2: normal halftime. So how do you make adjustments, keep your 359 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,760 Speaker 2: team focused and you know, go back out on the 360 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,679 Speaker 2: field after a long delay. 361 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,320 Speaker 8: You know, it's one of those things there. It's funny 362 00:18:20,359 --> 00:18:21,879 Speaker 8: because I think the first Super Bowl I was in 363 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 8: nineteen ninety five, in the ninety five season, ninety six 364 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:28,600 Speaker 8: Super Bowl against the Dallas Cowboys. There was the time 365 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,920 Speaker 8: frame from there I did not give much thought of 366 00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 8: that didn't reach out to anybody. And this the ant 367 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 8: national anthem was much later when he came out out 368 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 8: of the locker room. And then all of a sudden, 369 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,920 Speaker 8: you're in the locker room. You're much longer the second time, 370 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 8: having been there ten years later. I made sure after 371 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 8: halftime number one, we took all our pads off. I said, 372 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:48,720 Speaker 8: take your pads off. We had some fruits, some oranges, 373 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 8: some apples. Take some time, get away getting your locker. 374 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 8: He has to have your own space and then let's 375 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,600 Speaker 8: come back together as we get back and have some 376 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,280 Speaker 8: final thoughts. Is what we want to do in the 377 00:18:58,280 --> 00:19:01,120 Speaker 8: second half, Particularly those first series of the second half. 378 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:02,600 Speaker 8: I always thought they were the most vital of any 379 00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 8: football game, is a first series of defense in the 380 00:19:05,119 --> 00:19:07,679 Speaker 8: first series of offense, because you either re establish a 381 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,240 Speaker 8: momentum or you change momentum and you come out of 382 00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,920 Speaker 8: there with a sense of Okay, we got this thing, 383 00:19:11,960 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 8: figure it out. So I think that's the biggest thing 384 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 8: you did to me was that we almost treated like 385 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,000 Speaker 8: two different games. It's our first half and then there's 386 00:19:19,000 --> 00:19:21,040 Speaker 8: a second half, and that's kind of like what we did, 387 00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 8: I know of going against the Seattle Seahawks back in 388 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:25,760 Speaker 8: the two thousand and five season. In two thousand and 389 00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 8: six Super Bowl. 390 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,479 Speaker 2: I was trying to figure out what they were going 391 00:19:29,560 --> 00:19:32,400 Speaker 2: to do offensively, knowing that it felt like the Patriots 392 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:35,439 Speaker 2: left side of the line could not handle Seattle, and 393 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 2: Seattle knew that, but I, Mike, I just kept thinking 394 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 2: they would maybe subscribe to the Tom Brady playbook, just 395 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 2: get the ball out, make short throws, maybe keep running 396 00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 2: the football a little bit. It just didn't feel like 397 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 2: they were making adjustments in the second half. 398 00:19:50,880 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 8: You know, again I go back. I mean, if you've 399 00:19:52,680 --> 00:19:55,440 Speaker 8: watched the Miudland Patriots through the course of that playoff run, 400 00:19:55,440 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 8: it they've had number One, they've had trouble with their protection. 401 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:02,000 Speaker 8: They had five sacks in the three previous games, six 402 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,880 Speaker 8: in this game. So I think that somehow they got 403 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:07,159 Speaker 8: away from running the football or league let's throw on 404 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:10,000 Speaker 8: quick plays, screens of some nature where he didn't have 405 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 8: to hold the ball for long periods of time. I 406 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 8: even was going to think about to me at some point, 407 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 8: is go no huddle, try to slow down that rush. 408 00:20:17,920 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 8: You to do something to try to change the tempo 409 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:22,520 Speaker 8: of the game because you were you never could get 410 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 8: into a field or a flow. And I think as 411 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 8: a coach you want to constantly try to tweak some 412 00:20:27,119 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 8: things along the way. Those the adjustments that you're trying 413 00:20:29,320 --> 00:20:31,360 Speaker 8: to make, whether it be with your play calling, whether 414 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,080 Speaker 8: it be the sense of urgency we have coming out 415 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,520 Speaker 8: of the huddle, trying to do some things differently, whether 416 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 8: it's a reverse or two at some kind of gimme plays. 417 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 8: You know, we saw the fleet flicker be the big 418 00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,600 Speaker 8: play that they had last week against Detroit. We saw 419 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,400 Speaker 8: a little bit that in the first series. I think 420 00:20:44,520 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 8: Josh did a good job with that. I think they 421 00:20:46,400 --> 00:20:47,879 Speaker 8: kind of got away from that because they couldn't get 422 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 8: a first down, and so you don't get a first down, 423 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:53,040 Speaker 8: it's hard to get into flow on offense. And I think, again, 424 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 8: I get a lot of credit to Seattle. I think 425 00:20:55,280 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 8: Mike McDonald called a great game. He got a lot 426 00:20:57,840 --> 00:21:00,400 Speaker 8: of pressure. Both teams blitzed very early in the game 427 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 8: for both of these quarterbacks, recognizing it for both these 428 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,639 Speaker 8: quarterbacks as their first Super Bowl they experienced with minimal 429 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 8: and I think they want to make sure they were uncomfortable, 430 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:11,239 Speaker 8: and I think they both did a great job of that. 431 00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 8: And then they got to the point where the Seattle 432 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:16,199 Speaker 8: didn't even have to rush with the blitz. They were 433 00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,160 Speaker 8: able to get there with their four don linemen, and 434 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 8: Drake May just never felt comfortable the whole game. 435 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:24,199 Speaker 2: Mike McDonald calling the defense, how difficult is that to 436 00:21:24,240 --> 00:21:27,400 Speaker 2: be the head coach but also calling the defense. 437 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 8: Well, I think you have a lot of trust in 438 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:31,679 Speaker 8: your offensive coordinator. And I think that's the one thing 439 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:33,520 Speaker 8: I think with Mike if you look at the fact 440 00:21:33,560 --> 00:21:36,440 Speaker 8: after his first year he changed offensive coordinators, he goes again, 441 00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 8: Clint Kubiak, and I think that you have to have 442 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 8: a large degree of trust while you're doing that because 443 00:21:42,280 --> 00:21:44,159 Speaker 8: a lot of times when you're kind of the CEO, 444 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:46,680 Speaker 8: and I know, as I was for my time in Pittsburgh, 445 00:21:47,040 --> 00:21:49,960 Speaker 8: I'm talking to what are we doing with the other side? 446 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 8: When one side is calling the ball, I'm talking to 447 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 8: the other side. Let me talk to the coordinator before 448 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:56,680 Speaker 8: you start talking to the quarterback. That'smember what we talked 449 00:21:56,680 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 8: about last night. Maybe we can do this, Can we 450 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:01,440 Speaker 8: help our left tackle, can we do some things whatever 451 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 8: we need to do with j justment wise and the 452 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,240 Speaker 8: course of the game, you just have an ability to 453 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:08,880 Speaker 8: talk to that coordinator to talk about what our options 454 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,800 Speaker 8: are at that particular time. But when you're call calling 455 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:13,600 Speaker 8: the game is Mike has done and he's done it 456 00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:16,119 Speaker 8: for two years again, the trust he has to have 457 00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:17,800 Speaker 8: on the other side of the ball that they're getting 458 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,960 Speaker 8: things figured out is going to be immense. And I 459 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 8: think they obviously with Klink Kubiak and you just mentioned 460 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:25,280 Speaker 8: it going to the Raiders right now and you're first 461 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 8: pick in the draft and we all know who that's 462 00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 8: going to be. An end us and I think it's 463 00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:31,480 Speaker 8: that that's a good choice. And again now for for 464 00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:34,879 Speaker 8: Mike McDonald's, it's gonna be his third coordinator in three years. 465 00:22:35,000 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 8: As he's going up to Seattle. 466 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:39,439 Speaker 2: Talking to Bill Cower, hall of fame coach the NFL 467 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:43,959 Speaker 2: Today analyst for CBS. Did the enormity hit you at 468 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,080 Speaker 2: any point coaching in the Super Bowl? And if so, 469 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 2: when does the enormity of everybody's watching. 470 00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 8: The enormity hits you in the pregame? I feel like 471 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 8: the lead up to it, you can try to keep 472 00:22:55,119 --> 00:22:58,320 Speaker 8: things as normal as possible. Certainly the night before, you know, 473 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:00,000 Speaker 8: the day out, as you sit there in your hotel, 474 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:02,399 Speaker 8: we're ready to go to you know, on a bus. 475 00:23:02,680 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 8: At least when you're on the West coast, it's not 476 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,120 Speaker 8: as long as a day when you're on the East 477 00:23:06,160 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 8: coast and you have to sit there till like five 478 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 8: o'clock or four o'clock, and it's like you're looking for 479 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 8: a movie. You're looking for something. I didn't want to 480 00:23:12,040 --> 00:23:15,600 Speaker 8: watch anything else, and so it does become that. And 481 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:17,600 Speaker 8: when you get to the stadium, you can just feel 482 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:19,959 Speaker 8: the buzz. There's more people on the sideline. You know, 483 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:23,320 Speaker 8: the finality that's going to take place at the opportunity, 484 00:23:23,359 --> 00:23:27,120 Speaker 8: how close they are to make a history and it's real. 485 00:23:27,320 --> 00:23:29,639 Speaker 8: And I think again it's real. And particularly I know 486 00:23:29,680 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 8: for us when we went into the Dome in Detroit, 487 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 8: I could just the Dome in itself was just a 488 00:23:35,040 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 8: buzz and so that took another level of noise that 489 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:39,880 Speaker 8: we had to kind of deal with. So I think 490 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,280 Speaker 8: once the game gets underway, yes, you kind of start 491 00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:45,719 Speaker 8: to play the game and you fall into whatever the 492 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 8: feel of the game is, but the lead up to 493 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,879 Speaker 8: it is real. It's the biggest game of your career. 494 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:52,880 Speaker 8: You never know if you're going to get back there again. 495 00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 8: You may not think that way, but you know that's 496 00:23:55,320 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 8: been the case. We've all seen the history of all 497 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 8: the players who says, well, we'll be back and they 498 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 8: never got back. And the people that who said, you 499 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 8: have works out close to being to this Super Bowl 500 00:24:03,880 --> 00:24:06,399 Speaker 8: and they never get there. So it's an opportunity of 501 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 8: a lifetime, a chance to make history. And you understand that, 502 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 8: particularly as it leads up to the game, and as 503 00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:12,639 Speaker 8: you get to the stadium. 504 00:24:12,760 --> 00:24:15,359 Speaker 2: Did you see famous people on the sidelines when you 505 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 2: were in the Super Bowl, You. 506 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:19,359 Speaker 8: Know, there were so many people I did, you know. 507 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 8: I did. I stayed on the field. It's like you 508 00:24:21,359 --> 00:24:24,320 Speaker 8: walk between the lions. I mean, I think you know again, 509 00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:27,000 Speaker 8: It's like you walk between the lines and you sit 510 00:24:27,040 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 8: there and you just kind of stay and try keep 511 00:24:29,320 --> 00:24:31,640 Speaker 8: things as normal. You try to keep things as routine 512 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:34,280 Speaker 8: as possible. And I think that's the biggest thing I didn't. 513 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:35,919 Speaker 8: I never got caught up with that. I tried to 514 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 8: get the game going and make sure I look into 515 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,359 Speaker 8: the eyes of my players. I haven't worried about the 516 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 8: eyes and people are looking at us. I want to 517 00:24:41,359 --> 00:24:42,640 Speaker 8: make sure I look in the eyes of the guys 518 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:44,640 Speaker 8: that we have ready to play that game, and try 519 00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:46,800 Speaker 8: to just tell them relax, have some fun. We worked 520 00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 8: too hard to get here not to enjoy it. And 521 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 8: trust what you see and play fast, play hard, and 522 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:54,640 Speaker 8: if you make some mistakes, let it go and just 523 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:55,560 Speaker 8: go on to the next play. 524 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:59,280 Speaker 2: It is amazing how many teams what they do to 525 00:24:59,359 --> 00:25:03,879 Speaker 2: young quarterback. It just feels like more young quarterbacks are 526 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,919 Speaker 2: ruined than developed. And you know, Sam Donald was supposed 527 00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,120 Speaker 2: to be the safe pick in that draft by the Jets, 528 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:15,280 Speaker 2: but the Jets weren't ready for Sam Donald. And you know, 529 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:18,000 Speaker 2: most teams give up on these quarterbacks after two or 530 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:20,760 Speaker 2: three years. Here's Sam eight years in and now he 531 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:24,159 Speaker 2: wins the Super Bowl. But can you can you be 532 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: cautious at that position because it doesn't feel like coaches, 533 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,280 Speaker 2: general managers are well. 534 00:25:30,359 --> 00:25:33,000 Speaker 8: I don't know if cautious is the right word. I 535 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 8: always thought this day. I think when you look at 536 00:25:35,440 --> 00:25:38,639 Speaker 8: the Seattle Seahawks this year, I think they were the 537 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:41,359 Speaker 8: most balanced team in the National Football League. You talk 538 00:25:41,440 --> 00:25:44,920 Speaker 8: about special teams, Jason Myers, and they got Dixon Dickerson, 539 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,359 Speaker 8: who's maybe the best punter in the National Football that 540 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,560 Speaker 8: we saw take play out yesterday with some of the 541 00:25:50,560 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 8: the punts he had down on the ball inside the 542 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:54,920 Speaker 8: five yard line. Rashee Shaheed all of a sudden as 543 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 8: a putt return. They pick him up at the draft 544 00:25:57,280 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 8: he saw and solid defense, as we talked about, one 545 00:25:59,840 --> 00:26:01,479 Speaker 8: of the best in the National Football League. And then 546 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,119 Speaker 8: you look on the offensive side of the ball Jackson 547 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 8: Smith and Jigba I mean, one of the best receiver 548 00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,000 Speaker 8: offensive player of the year. And then you have a 549 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 8: two headed running back with Kenneth Walker and Zach Charbonney 550 00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:16,119 Speaker 8: and don't forget about him. Through the course of that 551 00:26:16,160 --> 00:26:19,400 Speaker 8: weekend that that helps the offensive line. So Sam Darnold 552 00:26:19,440 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 8: became just a piece of that, and I think to 553 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 8: a large degree that's where it was on the other 554 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:27,680 Speaker 8: side with Drake May you know, his legs got them there. 555 00:26:27,720 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 8: But there was a defense, it was a running game, 556 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:31,760 Speaker 8: it was a special teams. They did all the little 557 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,719 Speaker 8: things that it took to get there. So I think 558 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 8: if there was ever a message that said, you know, yeah, 559 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:37,920 Speaker 8: we don't have the quarterback, as we get the quarterback 560 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 8: to win a championship, I think yesterday proved that it's 561 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,840 Speaker 8: more about getting a complete team and building a team 562 00:26:43,880 --> 00:26:45,920 Speaker 8: and when that special guy comes along. I go back 563 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:48,000 Speaker 8: to the same thing that that's what we try to 564 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 8: do in Pittsburgh, and we won some playoff games with 565 00:26:50,320 --> 00:26:52,439 Speaker 8: different quarterbacks, but when we had a special guy come 566 00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:55,720 Speaker 8: along like Ben Roethlisberger, that's when championships come along. So 567 00:26:55,800 --> 00:26:57,840 Speaker 8: I think that's the biggest thing is along the way 568 00:26:58,080 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 8: you build that offensive line, you build that defense, you 569 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 8: get a special guy like Devin Wetherspoon who can play 570 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:06,119 Speaker 8: multiple positions and be kind of an impact player, and 571 00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 8: you get a running game with a Kenneth Walker and 572 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:11,639 Speaker 8: then a special number one receiver. So you build the 573 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 8: things around to us. To said, if you build it, 574 00:27:13,720 --> 00:27:16,280 Speaker 8: they will come and May maybe that quarterback that you're 575 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:19,000 Speaker 8: waiting for that can fill that void. And for sam Donold, 576 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,080 Speaker 8: he was that guy for them this year. And I 577 00:27:21,119 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 8: think again for Drake May, a young quarterback they got there. 578 00:27:24,440 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 8: His future is very bright ahead of him. 579 00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,280 Speaker 3: Well what's it like after winning the Super Bowl? 580 00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 2: That highest of highs and then you have to go 581 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: back to just normal life. 582 00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:38,720 Speaker 8: Yeah, And that's why I said to me, losing the 583 00:27:38,800 --> 00:27:42,159 Speaker 8: championship game was much harder. And I lost that four times. 584 00:27:42,200 --> 00:27:45,359 Speaker 8: I've lost the Super Bowl once, won it once, but 585 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 8: losing those championship games was harder because you know, you 586 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 8: sit there for two weeks and you're looking at the 587 00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:53,439 Speaker 8: team that you had a chance to beat, and you 588 00:27:53,480 --> 00:27:56,000 Speaker 8: could have beaten them. Look at the Rams and they 589 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 8: could have gone there to Denver if they had their quarterback. 590 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,440 Speaker 8: Did they get there? Do they have did a different outcome? 591 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:02,960 Speaker 8: So you watch it for two weeks, But after this game, 592 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 8: everyone's next weekend. I was watching N State basketball. I 593 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 8: mean so, I mean there's no where football there's finality 594 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 8: to what you do. And I think that's the thing 595 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:13,720 Speaker 8: to me. I know, the day after we won a championship, 596 00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:16,320 Speaker 8: I was in a basketball gym watching my daughter play 597 00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:19,159 Speaker 8: basketball back in Pittsburgh, and so it was like, okay, 598 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:22,480 Speaker 8: now now it's off season comes and there's normality, and 599 00:28:22,640 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 8: my wife is telling me where to go and what 600 00:28:24,359 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 8: time I needed to be there, what time is the 601 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 8: game and so so it's just like, you know, when 602 00:28:28,359 --> 00:28:31,240 Speaker 8: the season was over, it's like the projects were thrown 603 00:28:31,280 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 8: right in front of me.

Go Hawks. 740 00:35:21,239 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: And I couldn't help but think of the trade.

So if you see 749 00:35:50,920 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: the draft picks that Seattle had in relationship to the 750 00:35:54,960 --> 00:36:01,239 Speaker 2: Russell Wilson trade, yeah, Pauli, Devin Witherspoon, Yeah. 751 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:03,320 Speaker 7: That's one of them they got part of that trade. 752 00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 7: Charles Cross, Boye Mafe So starters, good starters, Yeah, depth. 753 00:36:08,920 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, So Russ's instrumental in helping the Seahawks with that defense. 754 00:36:14,400 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 2: Lucas in Texas, Hi, Luke, what's on your mind today? 755 00:36:18,680 --> 00:36:19,520 Speaker 3: Hey, DIY good morning. 756 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:19,799 Speaker 8: Hey. 757 00:36:21,680 --> 00:36:24,360 Speaker 11: You know, Tarico had one little comment right at the 758 00:36:24,440 --> 00:36:26,239 Speaker 11: end of the game yesterday that got me thinking. The 759 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 11: Seahawks won their second Super Bowl, joining the tier of 760 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 11: seventeen teams that have won multiple Super Bowls. Kind of 761 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,719 Speaker 11: made me think, though the NFC West is now one 762 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 11: of three divisions that has at least three teams with 763 00:36:41,000 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 11: multiple Super Bowls, so kind of the most historic, best 764 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 11: overall divisions. Can you, guys, name the other one that 765 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 11: has three winners? And can you name the one division 766 00:36:49,239 --> 00:36:55,760 Speaker 11: that has all four teams with multiple Super Bowls? NFC East, 767 00:36:57,760 --> 00:37:00,399 Speaker 11: they're four for four, that's the big one. And what's 768 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:01,759 Speaker 11: the one the other one with three? 769 00:37:02,440 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 3: The other one with three that they won the Super Bowl? 770 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:09,920 Speaker 11: Yes, multiple super Bowl wins? 771 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:20,160 Speaker 2: Okay, yes, Paul, NFC South, Just the Buccaneers there, guys, Marvin, you. 772 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:20,800 Speaker 3: Got a guess. 773 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 7: Not the Saints. 774 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:24,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Saints one. 775 00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:28,480 Speaker 11: But three out of the four teams have won multiple 776 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:29,160 Speaker 11: Super Bowls. 777 00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:34,640 Speaker 3: It feels like you're yelling at us, Lucas, all right, tell. 778 00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:40,719 Speaker 11: Us the AFC West.

Adam in La Hi, Adam, 782 00:38:07,239 --> 00:38:08,680 Speaker 2: what's wrong? I mean, what's up? 783 00:38:11,480 --> 00:38:11,760 Speaker 1: Well? 784 00:38:11,800 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 12: Good morning, guys, you know what's wrong. I hope you 785 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,360 Speaker 12: had a great trip. Good morning, I enjoyed the Super. 786 00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:18,960 Speaker 8: Bowl week coverage. 787 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:21,719 Speaker 12: As always, I kept telling myself I wouldn't watch the game, 788 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:24,600 Speaker 12: being still sour over the Rams who as you know. 789 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:25,960 Speaker 3: He felt the same way. 790 00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 12: Whoever won that game in the NFC Championship probably was 791 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:29,640 Speaker 12: gonna win the Super Bowl. 792 00:38:30,400 --> 00:38:31,400 Speaker 3: But we move on, you know. 793 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:33,680 Speaker 12: I thought the best part of the Super Bowl was 794 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,400 Speaker 12: the Bad Money halftime performance, which I thought was amazing. 795 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,440 Speaker 3: Love over hate everyone, And then the. 796 00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,440 Speaker 12: Worst for me was watching that Seahawks team just dominate. 797 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:43,560 Speaker 3: I knew they would. 798 00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:46,200 Speaker 12: Drake Made to me, I disagree with you, was not 799 00:38:46,280 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 12: the MVP. He looked very flawed, whether he was injured 800 00:38:49,080 --> 00:38:51,240 Speaker 12: or not. The easy way to say now after the fact, 801 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:52,200 Speaker 12: but I just. 802 00:38:52,160 --> 00:38:57,680 Speaker 2: Felt like Drake May during the regular season was the 803 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:02,480 Speaker 2: MVP in my opinion. Is that also okay? No, you 804 00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:05,440 Speaker 2: saw what he had to work with last night. I 805 00:39:05,480 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 2: mean he I Stafford was wonderful, but he was loaded. 806 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:14,439 Speaker 2: I mean, Drake May made the Super Bowl, didn't play 807 00:39:14,480 --> 00:39:16,919 Speaker 2: well in the postseason, but during the regular season, which 808 00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,480 Speaker 2: the award is based on, Drake May to me was 809 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 2: the MVP. 810 00:39:20,320 --> 00:39:25,840 Speaker 3: It's all I have a good idea tap out. 811 00:39:27,200 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 2: That's funny, and the Bad Bunny halftime show. You know, 812 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:31,960 Speaker 2: as I tell people, they were like, you're gonna watch 813 00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 2: the Bad Bunny? I said, if I'm in the room 814 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,279 Speaker 2: with my wife and two daughters, yes, I'll watch the 815 00:39:38,480 --> 00:39:40,879 Speaker 2: turn it off for you know, leave the house if 816 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:45,840 Speaker 2: you want to. I thought the choreography was great. You 817 00:39:45,880 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 2: give me Lady Gaga at any performance. Ricky Martin was 818 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:52,680 Speaker 2: a nice surprise, but I thought that it you know, 819 00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 2: there was a lot going on there. It was entertaining. 820 00:39:55,360 --> 00:40:01,000 Speaker 2: I don't know his songs, but I was sure about it. 821 00:40:02,280 --> 00:40:05,920 Speaker 2: It's not the end of civilization, like we all survived. 822 00:40:06,040 --> 00:40:07,920 Speaker 2: It's okay, Yes, Paul. 823 00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:10,279 Speaker 7: I nerd out with the production of the halftime show, 824 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:12,560 Speaker 7: no matter who's doing it. How they get everything logistically 825 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:14,399 Speaker 7: on the field and off. Do you see how there's 826 00:40:14,480 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 7: hundreds of trees on the field. 827 00:40:16,280 --> 00:40:17,040 Speaker 3: Those are people. 828 00:40:17,200 --> 00:40:19,200 Speaker 7: I didn't realize that till the very end when I 829 00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:21,279 Speaker 7: saw them from a top shop walk up. Those are 830 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:24,320 Speaker 7: people in tree outfits to make the process faster. 831 00:40:25,080 --> 00:40:27,000 Speaker 3: Do you put it on your resume you were a 832 00:40:27,080 --> 00:40:30,839 Speaker 3: tree during the half? Yeah?
