Speaker 1: Sunday's loss of versus Chiefs in look ahead to another

7
00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:22,959

8
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: coming up here at the uc Hell Training Center. There

9
00:00:31,280 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 1: was no practice or media press conferences today as the

10
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 1: players had the day off, so for today's episode of

Speaker 1: Broncos Now, Denver Post, Parker Gabriel joins the show to

12
00:00:40,400 --> 00:00:43,760
Speaker 1: give his thoughts surrounding the team. Parker, so appreciate you

13
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: joining me today. Thanks for happing on. Yeah happy. I'm

14
00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:48,199
Speaker 1: happy to be here, Sydney. Thanks for having me. Yeah,

15
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: of course. How's it going. I'm doing great, you know,

16
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: so little snow outside finding it feels like we enter

17
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: around here, so I got nothing to complain about. Well, Parker,

18
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:59,400
Speaker 1: you know, it's hard to believe it's already week fifteen

19
00:00:59,480 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: of the season in here. Just four more games left

20
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,080
Speaker 1: in the regular season. But I know it's kind of

21
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:06,039
Speaker 1: hard to believe the Broncos. You know, we're just sitting

22
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:08,720
Speaker 1: at the three in ten. I don't think anyone really

23
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,800
Speaker 1: expected that at this point in the season. No, not

24
00:01:11,880 --> 00:01:15,000
Speaker 1: at all. And I think even if you we're taking

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:18,200
Speaker 1: into account all of the all of the newness, right,

26
00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 1: first year head coach, quarterback who's here for the first year,

27
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: even though it's his tent or eleventh in the NFL,

28
00:01:24,480 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: I don't think anybody really saw this coming. Obviously, there's

29
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:30,600
Speaker 1: a lot of reasons for it, um and it's but

30
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 1: I think in particular, even though you sort of knew

31
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:35,520
Speaker 1: the flaws of the team at least to some degree,

32
00:01:36,280 --> 00:01:37,840
Speaker 1: like by the time we went to London at the

33
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,560
Speaker 1: end of October, the five game losing streak coming out

34
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: of the by has been sort of particularly tough. I think.

35
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:46,480
Speaker 1: I mean, you just, you know, traded Bradley Chop at

36
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: the trade deadline, but you came out of that bye

37
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,520
Speaker 1: week thinking they had sort of a manageable stretch of

38
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 1: the schedule, and it just it just hasn't gone their

39
00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,600
Speaker 1: way um at all this season, and in particular over

40
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,760
Speaker 1: the last five games well before where we look ahead

41
00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:02,240
Speaker 1: to week fifteen, and I want to look back at

42
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,800
Speaker 1: the Broncos performance vers achieves this past Sunday. First and foremost,

43
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:08,359
Speaker 1: you know Russell Wilson, he is in concussion protocol CO

44
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: checket side Monday that Russell is doing great. You know

45
00:02:11,320 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: he looked great, UM, but obviously number one safety or

46
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:18,240
Speaker 1: number one priority is his safety. So what do you

47
00:02:18,280 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 1: think in that regard? What do you think might happen

48
00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: this week if Russell is cleared or maybe if he's

49
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: not cleared. Yeah, there's there's a pretty strict set of

50
00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: UM basically progression that you have to go to go

51
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: through in order to get out of the protocol to

52
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,280
Speaker 1: clear it. So you start with pretty light workout activity

53
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:39,720
Speaker 1: and you can be in the team meetings, and if

54
00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: you can handle that UM without having your symptoms aggravate,

55
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:46,160
Speaker 1: then you sort of move on to more strenuous You

56
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: can ride an exercise bike, and then it's sort of

57
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: football conditioning and then non contact work and then finally

58
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,799
Speaker 1: full practice clearance and only then can you play. So

59
00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: it's a tight timeline. We've seen some guys like DJ

60
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:03,120
Speaker 1: Jones earlier in the year UM was able to go

61
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: all the way through the protocol in one week and

62
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,519
Speaker 1: he didn't miss a game. There's another layer to the

63
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:12,720
Speaker 1: decision making process with Russell Wilson. Now, just because a

64
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: Denver is eliminated from playoff contention, you have to imagine

65
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: that they'll they'll be smart with him, and at the

66
00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,959
Speaker 1: same time, if he clears to the protocol, then it's

67
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:23,760
Speaker 1: really up to the coaching staff and Russell of whether

68
00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:26,360
Speaker 1: he plays on Sunday and then down the stretch of

69
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,760
Speaker 1: this season. Yeah. Well, prior to Russell suffering that concussion

70
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter on Sunday, I mean, those offense

71
00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: looked arguably the best day looked all season. I know,

72
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:38,360
Speaker 1: you know, Russell through for two forty seven yards and

73
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,040
Speaker 1: three touchdowns. Jerry Judy stepped up big. I mean, they

74
00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: made it a game after being down to nothing in

75
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 1: the second quarter. Parker, What do you think was working

76
00:03:45,520 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: so well for this offense on Sunday? Yeah, Well, part

77
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 1: of it is just like you said, I mean, you know,

78
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:52,240
Speaker 1: they got Jerry Judy involved. And one of the things

79
00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 1: about about Jerry's is the season has gone along. He

80
00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,880
Speaker 1: had Russell have really you know, the chemistry there has

81
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 1: has really progressed. Earlier in the season, he was catching

82
00:04:02,120 --> 00:04:05,080
Speaker 1: less than half the passes that were thrown his way.

83
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: That that that can be a lot of different things,

84
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,120
Speaker 1: not being on the same page as quarterback, a drop

85
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:11,880
Speaker 1: here and there, a throwaway in his direction, whatever it is.

86
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 1: But he's caught everything that's gone his direction. Um, you know,

87
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 1: basically since the bye he's missed some time with the

88
00:04:17,279 --> 00:04:19,720
Speaker 1: ankle injury, but that was part of it. And then

89
00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: I think it's this sort of fine balance, right, I mean,

90
00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hacket talked about it on Monday. The element of

91
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,080
Speaker 1: Russell using his legs can really open things up. There's

92
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:33,839
Speaker 1: a couple of situations where he got the two men.

93
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,680
Speaker 1: You know, look from the defense, nobody accounted for him.

94
00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:38,799
Speaker 1: He took off and ran. He called his own number

95
00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:41,400
Speaker 1: on the third and one on a zone read and

96
00:04:41,440 --> 00:04:43,920
Speaker 1: he got eleven yards. Like that's the kind of thing

97
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,039
Speaker 1: that you can keep the sticks moving, you can you

98
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: can make a big play here and there, and then

99
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: you're also putting him in harms way more often and

100
00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:55,040
Speaker 1: and and then of course you know he he has

101
00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:57,200
Speaker 1: a concussion at the end of the game. So, um,

102
00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,360
Speaker 1: those are elements that you know, you'd like to see

103
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,120
Speaker 1: them continue to use and that they I'm sure they

104
00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 1: will continue to use on through the season, but um,

105
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: they've struggled to put a healthy team on the field,

106
00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,240
Speaker 1: and and that's the case obviously again this week with

107
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:14,479
Speaker 1: Russell going through the protocol, Kendall Hitton getting hurt last week,

108
00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:17,560
Speaker 1: Sutton's out, Mike Boone's out, just serve, the list goes

109
00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: on and on. Yeah, you know, we heard coach Hacket

110
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:23,440
Speaker 1: talk on Monday a lot about just Jerry Judy's ability

111
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,320
Speaker 1: to come in and you know, play the position that

112
00:05:25,360 --> 00:05:27,880
Speaker 1: Courtland was playing in addition to you know, his role

113
00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 1: in the slot. It seemed like Jerry really thrived in

114
00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:34,599
Speaker 1: that situation. So obviously we don't really know courtland status.

115
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:36,960
Speaker 1: Coach Sackett said, he's gonna be day by day. How

116
00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,320
Speaker 1: do you kind of hope to see this staff use

117
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:43,320
Speaker 1: Jerry like that moving forward? Yeah, Well, the metrics say

118
00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: that he's he's been dynamite against man coverage this year,

119
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 1: and so you know that they know that obviously, and

120
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: they have known that, and as he gets healthy. You know,

121
00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 1: he only played the twenty snaps against Baltimore and then

122
00:05:53,800 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: he was up to sixty UM this last week against

123
00:05:56,040 --> 00:05:58,479
Speaker 1: Kansas City, So him just being on the field gives

124
00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:01,560
Speaker 1: him that element. Um, it'll be interesting to see how

125
00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 1: much they they do move him around depending on you know,

126
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: who else he's out there with, because it's possible you know,

127
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:12,080
Speaker 1: Courtland Suton's back, maybe not. Kendall Hinton is now dealing

128
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,000
Speaker 1: with the hamstring injury too, so it could be Jerry

129
00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,760
Speaker 1: and a bunch of young guys out there. Um. One

130
00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 1: of the things that's interesting is, you know, it's sort

131
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:23,160
Speaker 1: of like one guy has sort of had a big day,

132
00:06:23,279 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: you know, each week or most week. So so yeah,

133
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 1: it's been like it's been Courtland, or it's been Greg

134
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,080
Speaker 1: dulcych or it's been Jerry. And so one of the

135
00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 1: things that will be interesting is you know, like like

136
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: Kansas City started doubling Jerry, Judy bracketting him, giving him

137
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 1: a lot of attention. You know, if Arizona does the

138
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 1: same thing, then it's probably on somebody else to make place.

139
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 1: And then the question is like who is that somebody else? Right?

140
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,000
Speaker 1: I know, and it's been a tough season with all

141
00:06:50,040 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 1: the injuries like you mentioned, but I want to look

142
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: at this defense for a little bit. One guy really

143
00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,880
Speaker 1: want to highlight is just Josie Jewel. First off, He's

144
00:06:56,920 --> 00:06:59,320
Speaker 1: just had such an incredible season. And you know, Sunday

145
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: he got not only his first career interception, but ended

146
00:07:02,160 --> 00:07:05,640
Speaker 1: the game with two interceptions. You know, I felt like

147
00:07:05,839 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 1: his first interception in the second quarter really changed the

148
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,960
Speaker 1: rhythm of the game, the pace of the game. But

149
00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:13,840
Speaker 1: it kind of seems like Josie's not getting enough credit

150
00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 1: this season because he's been having a heck of a year. Yeah.

151
00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:19,480
Speaker 1: I just wrote for the Dender Post actually right before

152
00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:21,040
Speaker 1: we jumped on here, that I think he should he

153
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 1: should get Pro Bowl consideration. I mean, when you look

154
00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 1: at it, you know, part of I think, like part

155
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: of the reason why his numbers may not jump off

156
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: the page if you're looking, you know, if you just

157
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: pull up like leading tacklers in the NFL. And he's

158
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:34,200
Speaker 1: missed four games. He had to miss the two games

159
00:07:34,200 --> 00:07:36,560
Speaker 1: of the calf strain, and then he sprained his knee.

160
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:37,960
Speaker 1: He missed two more games. But if you go on

161
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: a per game basis, I mean, you know, it's not

162
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,320
Speaker 1: like he's played in four right, He's played nine of

163
00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: the thirteen games. He's on the field virtually every snap

164
00:07:45,760 --> 00:07:49,120
Speaker 1: when he's healthy, and you know, he's over tin tackles

165
00:07:49,160 --> 00:07:51,600
Speaker 1: game ten point six. He's got ninety six tackles and

166
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,760
Speaker 1: nine games. That's third his per game tackle rates third

167
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL. He's got seven tackles for loss. Now

168
00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:00,800
Speaker 1: he's got two interceptions, both of Patrick Mahomes. Um, He's

169
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,120
Speaker 1: he's just been the guy who you know, Denver's had

170
00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 1: one of the better defenses UM in the NFL this year,

171
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 1: and he's the guy that's in the middle of all

172
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:12,040
Speaker 1: of it. He calls the defense, he wears the green dot.

173
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: He's in control, UM and he's every game literally that

174
00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: he's played this year. Um, he's been a difference banker forever. Definitely. Well,

175
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:21,920
Speaker 1: you know, looking at the defense as a whole, they

176
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,120
Speaker 1: allowed thirty four points on Sunday, the most that they've

177
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:26,760
Speaker 1: allowed all season. But you know, they knew it was

178
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,080
Speaker 1: gonna be a tough test going up against the league's

179
00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,920
Speaker 1: best scoring offense and the Chiefs perker for you, how

180
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:35,920
Speaker 1: would you grade kind of just their overall performance on Sunday? Yeah,

181
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 1: I mean I didn't. I thought that they played pretty well,

182
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 1: especially as the game went along, you know, And and

183
00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,600
Speaker 1: seven of those were on the pick six and so

184
00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:46,080
Speaker 1: you're talking about seven UM that the defense allowed, and

185
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:48,439
Speaker 1: twenty of those came on the first four drives of

186
00:08:48,520 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 1: the game, and so you know, from they gave up

187
00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:53,880
Speaker 1: twenty points in the first four drives and then seven

188
00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: on on Kansas City's last seven. I think, obviously, like

189
00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,319
Speaker 1: if you're a nit picking UM, you know, Petro Homes

190
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:02,440
Speaker 1: did engineer the one touchdown drive in the second half,

191
00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,000
Speaker 1: and they were able to run the last four minutes

192
00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,440
Speaker 1: and seconds or something like that off the clock. But overall,

193
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 1: I mean, when if you hold Kansas City to UM

194
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,200
Speaker 1: and you turned them over three times, you inter stet

195
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,840
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes three times, you should be right in that game.

196
00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,079
Speaker 1: And even though it's sort of like took a unique

197
00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:24,960
Speaker 1: route to get there, they were right in the game.

198
00:09:25,040 --> 00:09:27,760
Speaker 1: You know, Denver's offense got the ball four times in

199
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:29,960
Speaker 1: the second half with a chance to take the lead,

200
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,120
Speaker 1: two with Russell Wilson still in the game, and then

201
00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: two with Brett Rippins still in the game. Weren't able

202
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 1: to get it done, obviously, But you know, I think

203
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,000
Speaker 1: it's a lot of yards and it looks like a

204
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,440
Speaker 1: lot of points, and then when you when you graded

205
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: on the scale, UM, it's still an effort I think

206
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: that you can build on if if you're the Bronco's defense. Yeah,

207
00:09:47,160 --> 00:09:49,719
Speaker 1: there was certainly more positives to take out of this game,

208
00:09:49,760 --> 00:09:52,360
Speaker 1: and there has been in recent weeks. But you know,

209
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,439
Speaker 1: ultimately the Broncos they didn't get the win. Another one

210
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,199
Speaker 1: score loss. Parker, why do you think maybe that this

211
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: team hasn't been able to really finished these games? And

212
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,000
Speaker 1: you know, what are your hopes in regards to that.

213
00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 1: You know this weekend is you know they host the Cardinals. Yeah,

214
00:10:07,400 --> 00:10:08,800
Speaker 1: I think it's been a combination of things. I mean

215
00:10:08,920 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 1: some some weeks, you know, they've had the lead early

216
00:10:11,600 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 1: in the game. I think they've led by ten points

217
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:16,559
Speaker 1: four or five different times, and so the one score

218
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:19,560
Speaker 1: losses have sort of come in different shapes and sizes,

219
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,720
Speaker 1: so to speak. For the most part, it's there's been

220
00:10:22,760 --> 00:10:26,240
Speaker 1: a couple of times where the defense has there's a

221
00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:28,959
Speaker 1: situation where you really, you know, they need to get

222
00:10:28,960 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 1: off the field, Like if you're one of the best

223
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: defenses in the NFL, you can't let a backup quarterback

224
00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:38,120
Speaker 1: in Baltimore yards and score at the end of the game.

225
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: But for the most part this year, it's just been

226
00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 1: about offensive inconsistency and and and I think especially when

227
00:10:44,880 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: you're playing with the lead, their inability to you know,

228
00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:51,080
Speaker 1: run the ball consistently when the I mean, the the

229
00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,360
Speaker 1: hallmark of good offense in a lot of ways besides

230
00:10:54,440 --> 00:10:56,640
Speaker 1: just you know, scoring a lot of points is when

231
00:10:56,679 --> 00:10:59,319
Speaker 1: you can run the ball in situations where the other

232
00:10:59,360 --> 00:11:01,040
Speaker 1: team knows you're going to run the ball, when you're

233
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 1: you're you go out there and say we're gonna put

234
00:11:03,080 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 1: this game away even though they know that we're trying

235
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: to put the game away. I mean, that's when you've

236
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: really got something. And that's just been you know, Dever

237
00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,319
Speaker 1: hasn't got to that point, um this year, And and

238
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,680
Speaker 1: that's definitely part of the reason why you know, they've

239
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,559
Speaker 1: come up short in some games, um that they've fled.

240
00:11:18,600 --> 00:11:20,840
Speaker 1: And then overall, when you're scoring fifteen points a game,

241
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:23,199
Speaker 1: you know you're just operating with with a really thin

242
00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,680
Speaker 1: market for sure, Well, a lot to build upon this week.

243
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: Hopefully they get to win this Sunday versus Cardinals at home. Parker.

244
