Well when uh, one of the highlights 6 00:00:20,239 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 1: of the game is the sixty yard punt. That was 7 00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:24,360 Speaker 1: a nice punt. It was It was a Super Bowl 8 00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 1: record yes by Johnny Hecker, which is I guess one 9 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,680 Speaker 1: thing the Rams can hang there and no Buck today 10 00:00:30,680 --> 00:00:34,720 Speaker 1: Bucky was was helping on the Sky Sports broadcast of 11 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,160 Speaker 1: the Super Bowl there, yeah, making taking move the sixes 12 00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: gun internationals.

We'll have some more pods coming 17 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:52,919 Speaker 1: your way later in the week where weld we'll start 18 00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: jumping in.

It was not because the excitement of 22 00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:04,080 Speaker 1: the game, because I'm fired up. It's draft season.

We're gonna have some fun. 30 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:27,480 Speaker 1: But let's get to this superfree and some takeaways there. Um, 31 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: I'll jump in here. First off, here, Red, I just thought, man, 32 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:34,920 Speaker 1: the uh, the pass rush for the Patriots was pretty dominant. 33 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: I just think when you look at this, this Patriots 34 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,399 Speaker 1: pass rush, Red I tweeted out last night. During the 35 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,960 Speaker 1: regular season, they were thirtieth in the NFL. They had 36 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,920 Speaker 1: thirty sacks during the regular season. They had four sacks 37 00:01:45,240 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 1: in the game against the Rams and the Super Bowl 38 00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: and and several other pressures. And they did it really 39 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 1: with a lot of games. And I saw it firsthand 40 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,920 Speaker 1: doing the Charger playoff game with the Patriots. And you know, 41 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,559 Speaker 1: a lot of times when people think about twists and stunts. 42 00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: They think about two guys working in d them. The 43 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: Patriots do it with three games. It's great and it's 44 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,600 Speaker 1: just a lot to digest as an offensive lineman. They're 45 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 1: able to get clean run throughs. And then also, um, 46 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: you know they sold out on the on the cover 47 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:12,520 Speaker 1: zero blitz to to generate the turnover on second down. 48 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:16,360 Speaker 1: I was trying to equate that golf interception on second 49 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 1: and ten. I believe, um, and then just give up 50 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:21,600 Speaker 1: a scoring opportunity. It would it would be like throwing 51 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 1: that pick on second and ten would be like, what 52 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,399 Speaker 1: are the baseball rules? You never make the first out 53 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,679 Speaker 1: at third base? Like there's all those unwritten rules, you 54 00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,280 Speaker 1: know what I mean? Like don't why don't try and 55 00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: take the extra base. We're gonna be on second base. 56 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,120 Speaker 1: We got we got a couple of outs territory. It's 57 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:36,400 Speaker 1: just like baseball. You had a couple of outs to 58 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,960 Speaker 1: play with their um. So just an unfortunate decision by 59 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,520 Speaker 1: golf there. But I thought up front, uh, that pat 60 00:02:42,639 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: that that Pat's d line. They might not have star power, 61 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:46,919 Speaker 1: but they did a nice job. And I got a 62 00:02:46,960 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: text from a buddy in the league that said, if 63 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 1: you look at what they're doing defensively, it's the same 64 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:53,480 Speaker 1: game plan they used against Jacksonville. You know, I don't 65 00:02:53,480 --> 00:02:55,760 Speaker 1: believe they won that game earlier in the unit, but 66 00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 1: they played with an even front. So you've got four down, Um, 67 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:00,040 Speaker 1: that's what they can do. They're kind of in a 68 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 1: Meba scheme. They can go anywhere they want to go. 69 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: In this game, they decided to play four down, and 70 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 1: they also walked up the salm and the will on 71 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:08,840 Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. They've got six guys on the 72 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:11,399 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and basically just saying we're not gonna 73 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 1: let you run the football. And what that did is 74 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: being able to stop the run on early downs, set 75 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:17,280 Speaker 1: the rams up in some third and long, which when 76 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 1: you get the rams, when they're in third and two, 77 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,639 Speaker 1: third and third and two and third and four. Yeah, 78 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 1: because you're gonnaet the run game, you're gonna get play action, 79 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: you're gonna get boot. And when you get them in 80 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 1: third and eight, now you eliminate the play action, you 81 00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 1: eliminate the boot and that's a totally different offense. That's 82 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,600 Speaker 1: a great point. And and because Jared Goff was at 83 00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:35,520 Speaker 1: his best this year on play action it's where he 84 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,119 Speaker 1: was the you know, his highest rating came on play 85 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 1: action passes. That's where their bread and butter was. That's 86 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 1: where you get the chunk plays and the deep overs 87 00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 1: and Robert Woods and Branding Cooks running free through the secondary. 88 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: And look, we didn't see that really until late in 89 00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:48,720 Speaker 1: the game. I mean they only had two plays over 90 00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,440 Speaker 1: twenty yards in this game and both of them are 91 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: on the final driving garbage. Yeah. The explosive players just nowhere, right. 92 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: And you know what, I don't think every team can 93 00:03:57,480 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: work that three man game like the Patriots do. We 94 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: get talk about not how to see it, having elite 95 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:04,800 Speaker 1: pass rushers, you're right, but you know other teams may 96 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: not have, you know, skilled linebackers like Kyle van Noyan 97 00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,680 Speaker 1: Dante high Tower who can rush that way. Um, you know, 98 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean I go back to the first drive for 99 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,359 Speaker 1: the Patriots and you get Adrian Clayborne running free on 100 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,680 Speaker 1: a stunt and just levels Jared Goff. That was a 101 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:21,919 Speaker 1: tone setter to me. I was like, all right, you know, 102 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: we're gonna be in for for a long day here, 103 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: and they were. I want to give you this is 104 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 1: a bonus takeaway because having a bonus. But you know 105 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:29,880 Speaker 1: who should you know who could be a little bit 106 00:04:29,880 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 1: excited about the about that performance last night san Ford 107 00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:38,080 Speaker 1: and fans because we saw their head coach Kyle Shanahan 108 00:04:38,200 --> 00:04:39,960 Speaker 1: very similar scheme there and they come from the same 109 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 1: family with here and up points on that Patriots and 110 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,680 Speaker 1: everybody talks about they blew that game, they blew the lead. 111 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 1: Three talks about. But if you just look at the 112 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: Shanahan versus McVeigh contest against a Patriots defense edge the 113 00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: Shahan edge edge at the moment for sure, And you know, 114 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: I think we and I think get to it here. 115 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:06,760 Speaker 1: Although although although Matt Ryan sacked five times in that games, 116 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: yeah so only four time, but I'm just saying twelve times. 117 00:05:08,920 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 1: I'm just saying though that the Patriots against this scheme. Now, 118 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 1: think about think about the history there of this offense 119 00:05:14,240 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: with Bill Belichick and his history with Mike Shannon. These 120 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: these schemes have existed for twenty years. It goes beyond 121 00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: twenty years, so obviously protection wise, Bill Belichick found something 122 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,720 Speaker 1: you can exploit a little bit in this scheme. Yeah 123 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:30,080 Speaker 1: he did, and uh look, the Rams won the Bill 124 00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:33,679 Speaker 1: Ford Tough Offensive Line of the Year but good plug. 125 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,760 Speaker 1: They may not have been challenged this way all year, 126 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 1: the way the Patriots did. All Right, I'm gonna go 127 00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:40,919 Speaker 1: with my second takeaway here then I'm gonna give you 128 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,039 Speaker 1: uh yeah, I'm gonna go look to me. Experience matters. Um. 129 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 1: I thought that was very evident. And and you look 130 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,359 Speaker 1: at the Rams from the good side of things, like 131 00:05:48,400 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: what went well for the Rams and this game, well, defensively, 132 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:54,120 Speaker 1: they were outstanding. Wade Phillips experience, Yeah, I thought it 133 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: played in and you can talk about somebody that's had 134 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:58,360 Speaker 1: some success against Tom Brady and this offense, and for 135 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 1: a large portion of this game, they held us offense 136 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,040 Speaker 1: to check. Shoot, you give up thirteen points, you should 137 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 1: win a football game. Uh, they were outstanding. I thought 138 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:06,120 Speaker 1: he did a great job. But then on the other side, 139 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: we just talked about Belichick and his experience versus McVeigh 140 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,279 Speaker 1: and his experience, and you talked about Brady when you 141 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:13,920 Speaker 1: had to have those one or two plays, Tom Brady 142 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,440 Speaker 1: found a way to get it done. And and then Jared, 143 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:18,560 Speaker 1: you know, in that one moment when he kind of 144 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: just panicked a little bit got away from him. So 145 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,719 Speaker 1: I just thought the experience last year it was the 146 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:26,720 Speaker 1: inexperienced Philadelphia Eagles that just dialed it up. They were 147 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 1: ultra aggressive going forward on fourth downs, trick plays, you 148 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: name it. They went for it and and they were 149 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,480 Speaker 1: able to overcome some of their inexperience. I thought the 150 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,719 Speaker 1: Rams inexperience maybe showed up a little bit in this game. 151 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: I agree, and I'll go back to d NC Championship 152 00:06:38,880 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 1: game and we talked about it on the aftermath after 153 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:44,320 Speaker 1: that one. You know, the best throw of Jared Goff's 154 00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:47,159 Speaker 1: career to that point was the six yarder to Tyler Higbee. 155 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,160 Speaker 1: That's set up was that the boot, yeah boot, and 156 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,359 Speaker 1: he got got past Cam Jordan's set up the fifty 157 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,279 Speaker 1: seven yarder from his airline. In this game, I felt 158 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,719 Speaker 1: like the plan and the Patriots persistence in the past 159 00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,839 Speaker 1: rush set up that inner reception all game long, All 160 00:07:01,880 --> 00:07:03,760 Speaker 1: game long, started from the first hit, as I mentioned, 161 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 1: with Clayborne, you know, and getting popped by high Tower 162 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 1: and Van Noy in his face all the time, and 163 00:07:08,760 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 1: there was just there was no breathing room for Jared Goff. 164 00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 1: And finally, you know, it came up with the I 165 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: N T and gilmore So, I got a little update 166 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 1: for you here, what do you got?

I don't know. 201 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:07,199 Speaker 1: A couple of bitz, a lot of lombardies. I remember 202 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:09,280 Speaker 1: back in the day, Bill Belichick had a quarterback named 203 00:09:09,280 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 1: Doug Flute that I believe had a top came. You're right, 204 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:16,320 Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. Okay, So look, and this is kind 205 00:09:16,320 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: of an all encompassing thing that we can we'll start 206 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: for the Patriots with the plan is undefeated. From the eye, 207 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 1: Michelle the tail back behind Dublin Brady Otter shatter and 208 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:30,000 Speaker 1: gives some Michelle runs it left look of the end zone. 209 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: Touchdown Patriots Michelle for six. That's the all FOSSi I know. 210 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: Not's the offense we love. I told you it could 211 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,960 Speaker 1: be three strange quarters if we haven't seen this quarterback 212 00:09:43,080 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: playing a lot. But it's fourth quarter. It's a funny 213 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: time for the greatest God ever sewed it up so 214 00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:52,559 Speaker 1: so so I was loving it by the way that 215 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,040 Speaker 1: I tell you about running him at the uh at 216 00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,640 Speaker 1: the at the Charter playoff game. Oh yeah, we're so 217 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: at the Gillette where the radio set up is. It's 218 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,559 Speaker 1: it's almost kind of like a trailer almost kind of 219 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: it's like a tin can set up. Blow and um, 220 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:08,400 Speaker 1: so there's not like you're up in the press box. 221 00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: So you come outside your little your little room where 222 00:10:11,120 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: all the different radio rooms are set up indoors behind you, indoors, 223 00:10:15,480 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: and they have a little food tray out there. And 224 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,080 Speaker 1: spent some time with Iron Eagle. Great Zoe comes walking 225 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: in glasses, sunglasses on indoors, chest out. I may just 226 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:31,679 Speaker 1: feeling feeling probably I'll tell you what he said to me, 227 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: but nothing guy he did. Look. Zoe, by the way, 228 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:39,440 Speaker 1: is a great artist. Really, he can draw. Tommy Hodson 229 00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:43,319 Speaker 1: told me that when they shared a um A roster 230 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,440 Speaker 1: with the Patriots back back in the day. UM anyway 231 00:10:46,480 --> 00:10:49,280 Speaker 1: go ahead leading back to a Patriots plan is undefeated. 232 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:51,599 Speaker 1: So you know, we we just we just heard the 233 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:54,160 Speaker 1: sod call the only touchdown uh in the game, which 234 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 1: was Sony Michelle touchdown run from two yards out. Uh. 235 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:00,760 Speaker 1: Let's we'll start there. Their plan to go back to 236 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: one personnel, their plan to go back to power run, 237 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: their plan to make a commitment to the run game 238 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,920 Speaker 1: all year and in this game they were able to 239 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 1: do it. Sony almost had a hundred yards and in 240 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: the touchdown. UM, nobody could deal with it. This year, 241 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: we'll go back to Let's go back on the defensive 242 00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 1: side of the ball here. Their plan for the Rams 243 00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 1: was fantastic. You talked about it with the past rush 244 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,520 Speaker 1: and the ability to stop the run. To mean, this 245 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: was one of the best rush teams in football all 246 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 1: year long, and in the playoffs they were able to 247 00:11:31,080 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 1: do it. And then like, okay, now let's look that was. 248 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:36,439 Speaker 1: That was you know, that's looking at it in in 249 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: the landscape of this game. But take a broader, broader 250 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,440 Speaker 1: picture now the philosophy. Go back to personnel and talking 251 00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:46,079 Speaker 1: about Julian Edelman. Um, I mentioned to you earlier Tom 252 00:11:46,120 --> 00:11:49,000 Speaker 1: Brady best six round picking NFL. Julian Edelman might be 253 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,040 Speaker 1: the best seventh round picking a great call, I don't. 254 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:53,920 Speaker 1: I can't think of one that would. I can't either. 255 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 1: And and Bill Belichick this morning and was talking about 256 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,680 Speaker 1: how they scouted him, got a tip from Rick Goslin, 257 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:00,559 Speaker 1: went up to Kent State and sent a bunch of 258 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 1: coaches over there, worked him out twice. They're like, how 259 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 1: are we gonna use this guy? Will? You know what? 260 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: They figured it out. He never caught a pass before 261 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,679 Speaker 1: in his life in college. He never uh, he never 262 00:12:08,840 --> 00:12:11,440 Speaker 1: played defensive back in college. He did for the Patriots. 263 00:12:11,480 --> 00:12:16,160 Speaker 1: You know, like their plan with personnel is is you know, 264 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,240 Speaker 1: it's better than anybody they do it with. You know, 265 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,520 Speaker 1: they generate the pass rush without elite blue chippers, right. Um. 266 00:12:21,600 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: They look for smart and character tough players and then 267 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: you know, let's talk about in the framework of a 268 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:29,600 Speaker 1: game and in a season. You know what they figure 269 00:12:29,679 --> 00:12:32,560 Speaker 1: they figure it out. Just hang on long enough, Bill 270 00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:36,199 Speaker 1: will figure it out. Um, stay the course, in the 271 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: in the in the landscape of the game. And then 272 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,640 Speaker 1: in a season they lose two games in December, don't panic, 273 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: We're gonna be all right, Maybe we're gonna figure this 274 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 1: thing out. And they do. And look, we'll give we'll 275 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,679 Speaker 1: give a ton of credit to Brian flores Um. You know, 276 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,559 Speaker 1: he's probably gonna head down to Miami here today to 277 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: be the new head coach of the Dolphins. You know, 278 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,480 Speaker 1: the work that he did with Bill and figuring out 279 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: this game plan and calling this game, I mean, it 280 00:12:56,760 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 1: was was really impressive. Same for Josh McDaniels, who realized 281 00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:02,640 Speaker 1: at you know, at some point in this game it 282 00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,679 Speaker 1: was gonna be the Patriots best interest to get into 283 00:13:04,720 --> 00:13:07,440 Speaker 1: heavy personnel and to try to throw against the rams 284 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 1: based defense. And that was where they made their big 285 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 1: adjustment where they made you know, they're they're some of 286 00:13:11,679 --> 00:13:13,440 Speaker 1: their biggest plays like to play the gronk that's set 287 00:13:13,520 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 1: up the Sony Michelle touchdown. Their plan, whether it's personnel, 288 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,880 Speaker 1: whether it's in game adjustments, or whether it's game plan, 289 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,480 Speaker 1: which we talk about a lot. It's undefeated. Yeah, I 290 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: wrote down on my paper here. Just remember the song 291 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 1: p y t Well Michael Jackson. Of course STC is 292 00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 1: the Patriots, the smart, tough, and competitive, and that's kind 293 00:13:33,960 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 1: of the that's that's the funnel that they put these 294 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:38,480 Speaker 1: guys through, and that's why their draft board each and 295 00:13:38,559 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 1: every year. Talk to guys that have worked there. Most 296 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:43,640 Speaker 1: teams have a top one fifty list. Some teams even 297 00:13:43,679 --> 00:13:45,400 Speaker 1: go beyond one fifty, which I think is ridiculous. You 298 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 1: can get down to one fifty, you're gonna be in 299 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: the seventh round. Somebody from your one fifties there still 300 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: gonna be there. They get down to like guys because 301 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 1: when they put them through that funnel, and all those 302 00:13:54,280 --> 00:13:57,560 Speaker 1: guys can meet the criteria smart, tough, and competitive. Now 303 00:13:57,640 --> 00:13:59,480 Speaker 1: they have misses. You can go back through their draft 304 00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: history and you'll find second third in the second round. Yeah, 305 00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:04,679 Speaker 1: where they've had some some whiffs there, but for the 306 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 1: most part, the construction of their roster, those guys that 307 00:14:08,040 --> 00:14:09,960 Speaker 1: are on the field of twenty two guys they're relying 308 00:14:10,040 --> 00:14:13,160 Speaker 1: on in pressure situations. They're all smart, they're all tough, 309 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,719 Speaker 1: and they're all ultra competitive and and people by the 310 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:17,760 Speaker 1: way people kind of sneakerd that a little bit and go, oh, 311 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,560 Speaker 1: these every football player is competitive everything. No, it's not true. 312 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:24,320 Speaker 1: It is not true. And that to me is what 313 00:14:24,440 --> 00:14:27,840 Speaker 1: shows up in pressure situations. That's when you have those 314 00:14:27,960 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: right types of guys, they're able to get it done. 315 00:14:30,240 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 1: I mean, high Tower is a great example of that 316 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 1: to me, of somebody that's just and one of the 317 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 1: few first round picks on that defensive McCord will probably 318 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: be the other um. And I'll just say this, going 319 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:42,960 Speaker 1: back to your top seventy or eighty for the Patriots, 320 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,360 Speaker 1: they're not the top seventy five or eighty players in 321 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 1: the draft and the top for the Patriots. And I 322 00:14:49,400 --> 00:14:51,600 Speaker 1: don't think we can emphasize that enough. No, And that's 323 00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: one of the things that talking to our buddy, you know, 324 00:14:53,520 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 1: Mike Mayak, who's gone to now work for the Raiders, 325 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:58,440 Speaker 1: and and and I told him this when he when 326 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 1: he got that job, and he's he he's definitely confirmed 327 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,640 Speaker 1: it is. I haven't been on the team side of things. 328 00:15:04,040 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 1: It's so much easier when you know what you're looking 329 00:15:06,960 --> 00:15:10,480 Speaker 1: for for your particular team, versus on the media side 330 00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:13,160 Speaker 1: of things, trying to rank players arbitrarily and just you know, 331 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,080 Speaker 1: and for everyone don't know how they're gonna fit with 332 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,160 Speaker 1: certain teams. Is thirty two teams out there, they're not 333 00:15:17,200 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 1: all going to be a match for these guys. So, um, 334 00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: that's something that they've done a masterful job there in 335 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,880 Speaker 1: New England have known exactly what they're looking for and 336 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:26,520 Speaker 1: going and find it. And part of that plan for 337 00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: the Patriots led to my Rams takeaway, which is the 338 00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:34,160 Speaker 1: Rams run game ran dry. I mean, it was as 339 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,880 Speaker 1: unimpressive a run game performance as we've seen from one 340 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 1: of the best run game teams all year. Um, Saints 341 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: did decent job on him as well. It's you know, 342 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: it's where we kind of figured out that that the 343 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,320 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley thing wasn't working. Um, you know, he had 344 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: what five touches in the NFC Championship Game, he played 345 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 1: forty snaps in the Super Bowl. He outtouched C J. Anderson, 346 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,800 Speaker 1: but neither one of them game ten carriers for thirty 347 00:15:57,880 --> 00:15:59,920 Speaker 1: five yards and that was with the longest six teams. 348 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:01,360 Speaker 1: So you look at those other nine carries, not a 349 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: whole lot going on. So here's my question to you. 350 00:16:03,160 --> 00:16:07,360 Speaker 1: Other teams have tried to stop Todd Gurley, but they 351 00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,000 Speaker 1: have not been as successful, you know, Like so at 352 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:14,600 Speaker 1: some point do you say, okay, um, we gotta find 353 00:16:14,640 --> 00:16:16,200 Speaker 1: a way to get Taught involved in the past game. 354 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 1: We gotta find a way to just get him the ball, 355 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: you know, whether you know, if they're taking away the 356 00:16:20,880 --> 00:16:23,000 Speaker 1: stretch run that makes that that made the Rams so 357 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,440 Speaker 1: successful for most of the season, and how how else 358 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:27,440 Speaker 1: do we do it? You know? And then at that point, 359 00:16:27,480 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 1: what do you say, you know, where do you go, Well, 360 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 1: let me let me answer your question or around about 361 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:38,280 Speaker 1: way here. Kansas City Chiefs, even after they lost Kareem Hunt, Yeah, 362 00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:40,960 Speaker 1: still ran the ball pretty effectively, really well. Damian Wims 363 00:16:41,280 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: really good against the Patriots, twelve carriers for forty one yards. 364 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,200 Speaker 1: The Chargers, the Chargers or nothing run the ball pretty 365 00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,000 Speaker 1: well throughout the regular season, and I know, uh, they're 366 00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: a little bit nicked up. Gordon was a little nicked 367 00:16:53,720 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 1: up ten Carrey's nineteen yards. So when you look in 368 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: the postseason, the Rams actually ran it better against the 369 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:02,560 Speaker 1: Patriots two teams in Um. So that's just something, um, 370 00:17:02,680 --> 00:17:04,800 Speaker 1: you know, and that goes back, that goes back into me. 371 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 1: It's a little bit of the experience there with Bill 372 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,360 Speaker 1: Belichick and what your goals are, what your priorities are. Um, 373 00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:11,200 Speaker 1: A lot of the people you've talked to, I've talked 374 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,160 Speaker 1: to defensive coaches in the league that will tell you, look, 375 00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,159 Speaker 1: we're we're fine with giving up three and four yards, 376 00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 1: you know, even five yards on runs. We're we're gonna 377 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:25,000 Speaker 1: protect against the big play, and we'll concede some of that. 378 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: Belichick didn concede an inch. Yeah. Nothing. So you know, 379 00:17:29,400 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 1: Todd Gurley had a sixteen yard run in this game, 380 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 1: you take that out, it's ten, it's nine carries, nineteen yards, 381 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,240 Speaker 1: and it's it's like Charger territory. They popped one basically, 382 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,159 Speaker 1: UH and C. J. Anderson, I don't even think did 383 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 1: Todd had one catch for minus one yards. He had 384 00:17:46,200 --> 00:17:49,639 Speaker 1: two targets. I mean that was probably more surprising to me. 385 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:54,080 Speaker 1: The screen not existed. I asked that at halftime when 386 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 1: we were on air for thirty two minutes, when Room 387 00:17:56,040 --> 00:17:59,480 Speaker 1: five was rolling, I probably should have watched it. Um No, 388 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 1: I was Yeah, Me and Charlie Castley and UH and 389 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:05,320 Speaker 1: Will Blackman were sitting on air for thirty two minutes 390 00:18:05,359 --> 00:18:08,639 Speaker 1: talking about where where is this Rams offense? Right now. 391 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,200 Speaker 1: And uh, and the biggest deal was they did not 392 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,960 Speaker 1: have the run game going, because that's how they generate 393 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: the rest of their offense with Robert Woods, with Brandon Cooks, 394 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:20,120 Speaker 1: with Josh Reynolds, when Cooper Cupp was there as well, 395 00:18:20,440 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 1: and you know, just just couldn't get it done, couldn't 396 00:18:23,920 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: get it done, couldn't get the the play action pass going, 397 00:18:26,320 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: and therefore their offense was stagnant. I think, you know, 398 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,960 Speaker 1: Sean McVeigh mentioned, you know, admitted himself he felt like 399 00:18:32,040 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: he was out coached. He's kicking himself for not being 400 00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 1: able to get into the flow of the game calling plays. 401 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:42,720 Speaker 1: And you know, look, I mean lesser coaches have fallen 402 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,560 Speaker 1: pictures to Belichick, you know, I mean, like Sean McVeigh 403 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:48,000 Speaker 1: is is one of the very best out there right now. 404 00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,920 Speaker 1: And uh, and and just just couldn't get into the 405 00:18:51,040 --> 00:18:54,159 Speaker 1: rhythm of that game. So no, I'm with you that. 406 00:18:54,280 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: The the interesting thing is offensively, you have things that 407 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: build off one another. And we can say the rams 408 00:19:04,160 --> 00:19:06,160 Speaker 1: have you know, thrown to run. A lot of people say, 409 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,080 Speaker 1: you know, look it's a it's a passing league, and 410 00:19:08,160 --> 00:19:11,400 Speaker 1: even they use play action and then they were able 411 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,200 Speaker 1: to work that and then they'll finish games out with 412 00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 1: the run game. But it's you still just gotta get 413 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 1: it going. You still got to get that going. At 414 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,320 Speaker 1: some point time, they just they couldn't. It's, you know, 415 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: the defense was so dominant for the Patriots that like, 416 00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 1: we'll have to go back and watch the tape here 417 00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:27,160 Speaker 1: in a minute, as we're gonna do to get ready 418 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: for Aftermath at four o'clock Eastern time today on NFL Network. 419 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:32,960 Speaker 1: But final one of the year, by the way, Yeah, 420 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: season finale of the Aftermath, got to have you back 421 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,080 Speaker 1: for it, by the way. Um, I can't even tell you, 422 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,160 Speaker 1: you know, like watching the game, I can't even tell 423 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:42,920 Speaker 1: you what the Rams were, how they were trying to 424 00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:46,040 Speaker 1: attack the Patriots. And that's how good the Patriots planned was, 425 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: how dominant they wore you. It's like hard to even 426 00:19:47,920 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 1: identify what the Rams really wanted to do. Never really 427 00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:55,280 Speaker 1: got into it. My gosh, who was it? I remember 428 00:19:55,320 --> 00:19:58,119 Speaker 1: I have two boys once fifteen eleven. I don't remember 429 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 1: which one said it, but during the game, at some 430 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,600 Speaker 1: point in time they looked at me and said, Dad, 431 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:04,040 Speaker 1: why don't there not trick play? And I thought, you know, 432 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 1: maybe I'll listen to the to the to the eleven 433 00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:08,800 Speaker 1: year old right now, does something try something trying to 434 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,359 Speaker 1: get some kind of of momentum going there? Couldn't do it. 435 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: They punted on eight straight possessions on their They didn't 436 00:20:15,240 --> 00:20:18,760 Speaker 1: have a third down conversion until the ninth possession. UM. 437 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 1: They did not run to play in the red zone 438 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,880 Speaker 1: at all. They never got past the Patriots twenty seven 439 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:26,080 Speaker 1: yard line. It's incredible um and they never had in 440 00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,119 Speaker 1: those first eight possessions. They never had to drive over 441 00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: twenty three yards or drive last more than two minutes 442 00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,640 Speaker 1: in twenty three seconds. That's crazy. That's that. You give 443 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:35,479 Speaker 1: Tom Brady that much time, He's gonna figure it out, 444 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,520 Speaker 1: even on an off night, no question. I can't what 445 00:20:37,640 --> 00:20:40,120 Speaker 1: you got. Well, you guys mentioned Edelman and how big 446 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,560 Speaker 1: he was ended up being m v P. The loss 447 00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:44,879 Speaker 1: of Cooper Cup. You watch this Rams team. They were 448 00:20:44,880 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 1: a big play offense when he was out there and 449 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 1: opened up a lot deep. Without him, it did seem 450 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: like that offense was limited to a point. And I'm 451 00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:55,159 Speaker 1: curious how much you think the loss of Cooper Coup. 452 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,120 Speaker 1: Let's say, for arguments, say he's healthy, is he basically 453 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:00,600 Speaker 1: an Edelman type guy in this game where he answers, 454 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:05,400 Speaker 1: you've been to church, Yes, the church have a choir. Yeah, 455 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,560 Speaker 1: I was in church. You've you've heard the phrase preaching 456 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:12,800 Speaker 1: to the choir? Correct, go ahead ahead. I'm so glad 457 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:16,760 Speaker 1: you brought that up. Can't because you know I feel 458 00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 1: bad from a man, I'm gonna take a ten minute break. 459 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:22,960 Speaker 1: We'll be back, almost be done talking about Cooper Cup. Look, 460 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:26,080 Speaker 1: I could not agree with you more. Can't and that 461 00:21:26,359 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 1: that would you know, like without mentioning the fact that 462 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 1: Josh Reynolds actually did a pretty good job in place 463 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: of Cooper Cup, I think it was going to be 464 00:21:34,840 --> 00:21:38,640 Speaker 1: very difficult to duplicate what Coop gave the Rams both 465 00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,720 Speaker 1: in the run game in the past game, he's lined 466 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,000 Speaker 1: up in their tight uh down like inside the by 467 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: essentially sometimes acts like a tight end for that team, 468 00:21:47,200 --> 00:21:48,880 Speaker 1: you know, the way he can he can run through 469 00:21:48,880 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 1: eleven personnel and and uh great hands obviously runs great routes. 470 00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:55,359 Speaker 1: They don't use their tight ends anyways, at least yesterday, 471 00:21:55,359 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 1: I don't know at all. Everett and Higbee were non 472 00:21:58,640 --> 00:22:03,520 Speaker 1: factors every targeted once Higbee was zero uh, and we 473 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:06,440 Speaker 1: talked about that before we got on air. You know. Um, 474 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:08,760 Speaker 1: and they've spent some high draft picks on those guys. 475 00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:11,680 Speaker 1: Every they drafted before Cooper Cup and you know, Higbee 476 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: was the year before. I believe in the third I 477 00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,960 Speaker 1: think Ever made a couple of big plays against the Saints. Yeah, yeah, 478 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:17,840 Speaker 1: so yeah, he made a couple of big plays against 479 00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 1: the Chiefs too. Oh yeah, that's that money night game, 480 00:22:20,760 --> 00:22:23,680 Speaker 1: no doubt, no doubt. So anyway, I think I actually 481 00:22:23,720 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: talked to Cooper on Opening night. He wasn't doing any media, 482 00:22:26,760 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 1: but you know, he came over and but he was 483 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,119 Speaker 1: gonna talk to you. Yeah, he came over chat. We 484 00:22:30,200 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: talked about his you know, his little son. Question question. 485 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: Has Cooper Cup been in the Red Lewis household? Absolutely? 486 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:38,959 Speaker 1: How many times we had him over for dinner, him 487 00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:40,159 Speaker 1: and his wife fan of I just want to get 488 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 1: that on the They're great. They're great people. They're a 489 00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 1: great family. Uh even known known him forever.

No, me 656 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:06,720 Speaker 1: and my twin, I think probably soap operas for a 657 00:30:06,760 --> 00:30:09,840 Speaker 1: couple of years. You guys might have actually left Tubulan 658 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:11,959 Speaker 1: moved up to l A. You might be Hollywood star Rate. 659 00:30:11,960 --> 00:30:13,840 Speaker 1: It could have been on silver Spoons for cry out Loud. 660 00:30:13,840 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: Who knows. Yeah, I'm from Pittsburgh, so we didn't have 661 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 1: quite the opportunity that you have here in southern California. 662 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: But I am an identical twin, and as you know, 663 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 1: twins are in demand. When twin, yeah, eight minutes older 664 00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:30,840 Speaker 1: than my twin brothers. You don't even know my twin. 665 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:34,120 Speaker 1: I've got a family full of identical twins. Yeah, just basically, 666 00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 1: I think we have a commercial or so we went 667 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,440 Speaker 1: for an ad for a bike. Least we were kids. 668 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 1: I think we were like we were three years old maybe, 669 00:30:43,520 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 1: And so what they do is, I guess they need 670 00:30:45,200 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: to see how aware kids are. Can they listen? That's 671 00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 1: one of the biggest things. So they put different coins 672 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:52,720 Speaker 1: out on the floor for us. My mom's told me 673 00:30:52,800 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 1: the story countless times, and they say, picked up this coin, 674 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: don't touch this coin. I apparently listened. My twin brother 675 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: screwing up a points put him in his bo We 676 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:04,840 Speaker 1: never got the callbacks. It's your brother and j Billis 677 00:31:04,840 --> 00:31:06,760 Speaker 1: are responsible for us being where we are right now. 678 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:09,040 Speaker 1: I know. And now my twin brothers an elementary teacher, 679 00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 1: so he's dealing with young kids all the time. That's 680 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 1: what he deserves. Hey, can I just let us get 681 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,200 Speaker 1: out of here on this one thing?
