<v Speaker 2>Okay, good seeing everybody here. Appreciate you being here. What

0:00:26.840 --> 0:00:27.480
<v Speaker 2>questions you have.

0:00:30.440 --> 0:00:32.440
<v Speaker 3>Such a big win like that, the bull turner in

0:00:32.680 --> 0:00:36.440
<v Speaker 3>all of that, any quick turnaround, what's the what's the

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:39.839
<v Speaker 3>message to the team? And secondly, does it almost in

0:00:39.880 --> 0:00:40.880
<v Speaker 3>some ways help the hack?

0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:43.440
<v Speaker 4>Quick the turnaround a weird way.

0:00:44.680 --> 0:00:47.519
<v Speaker 2>Well, I think it's it's just our guys understood what

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:49.839
<v Speaker 2>was in front of us and they were in here

0:00:49.880 --> 0:00:54.760
<v Speaker 2>today ready to go to work. Obviously, you know the

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:56.360
<v Speaker 2>win was a good win, you know, so it's a

0:00:56.360 --> 0:00:59.040
<v Speaker 2>good feeling about that. We're happy with that. But there's

0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 2>really no time to well, not too much. We made

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:03.520
<v Speaker 2>the corrections from the game, which there were plenty to make,

0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:06.479
<v Speaker 2>and all eyes are on Wednesday night.

0:01:08.640 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 3>We got to play the highest they'll get the highstman

0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:16.120
<v Speaker 3>from high to those we can go after Cinera're just multi.

0:01:17.160 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 5>Stuff.

0:01:21.319 --> 0:01:23.759
<v Speaker 2>Well, the guys, I mean, these guys are pro football players,

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, and they understand. Coaches, we understand you've got

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:27.160
<v Speaker 2>to come back in.

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 4>You've got to get ready.

0:01:27.920 --> 0:01:30.119
<v Speaker 2>We had to put a practice together, a game plan together,

0:01:30.600 --> 0:01:32.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, in a short period of time, something that

0:01:32.200 --> 0:01:34.759
<v Speaker 2>we had been preparing to do. So it was pretty

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 2>much laid out. But you've got to organize it and

0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:38.920
<v Speaker 2>there's tweaks you have to make, and we'll be doing

0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 2>that all week up until game time. Really, and the

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:43.959
<v Speaker 2>players the same because they know that, you know, four

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:48.000
<v Speaker 2>o'clock on Wednesday, on Christmas afternoon, we're gonna be lining

0:01:48.040 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 2>up against a very good football team. And that's kind

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.040
<v Speaker 2>of the sobering part of it. You know what's in

0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 2>front of you and we've got to be ready for it.

0:01:54.280 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 4>What is he from CJ.

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 6>Straud's evolution from some of the rookie back in Week one,

0:01:57.560 --> 0:01:59.720
<v Speaker 6>you know and now you been playoff last.

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:03.280
<v Speaker 2>Year to he's grown, well, he just continues to grow.

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.320
<v Speaker 2>He's just a super talented guy. I remember watching him,

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:08.560
<v Speaker 2>ohiose state. He make all those all those outside breaking

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:12.200
<v Speaker 2>routes on the dime on the sideline and just got

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:15.280
<v Speaker 2>a strong arm he's very accurate, quick, quick release, makes

0:02:15.320 --> 0:02:18.640
<v Speaker 2>a lot of tight window throws to his receivers, ironically

0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:21.560
<v Speaker 2>to a Michigan guy and Nico Collins. And he got

0:02:21.560 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 2>a great back as a home run hitter. But he's

0:02:24.919 --> 0:02:27.920
<v Speaker 2>he's surrounded with some good weapons and he gets the

0:02:27.960 --> 0:02:30.960
<v Speaker 2>ball out, quick handles pressure well, he can move, he's athletic,

0:02:31.560 --> 0:02:32.880
<v Speaker 2>scrambles and makes plays.

0:02:32.919 --> 0:02:34.400
<v Speaker 4>All those things are things that he does.

0:02:35.160 --> 0:02:38.560
<v Speaker 7>And pass rushers, specifically on the edge with Pars.

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:41.920
<v Speaker 2>He got the two top guys, of course, but then

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:43.639
<v Speaker 2>I look at the roster and it's not just them.

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:44.440
<v Speaker 4>They got a whole bunch.

0:02:44.520 --> 0:02:47.040
<v Speaker 2>They got six guys, six guys that can get to

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 2>the quarterback off the edge that we're gonna have to

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:49.880
<v Speaker 2>contend with.

0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:51.880
<v Speaker 5>So when you went back and looked at what you

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.520
<v Speaker 5>guys did so well against them when they were when

0:02:54.520 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 5>they had the ball on offense last year, what ippressed

0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:57.760
<v Speaker 5>you did?

0:02:58.080 --> 0:03:00.679
<v Speaker 7>Which is the execution from last year?

0:03:00.800 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, I really haven't looked at that game yet, so

0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:04.800
<v Speaker 2>I'll probably get to that game at some point in

0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:06.800
<v Speaker 2>time here, but I don't really remember it right now.

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 2>Looked at their last couple of games this year, so

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:12.240
<v Speaker 2>I seemed more relevant.

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 3>You know that you got to Carey yesterday.

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:15.799
<v Speaker 4>What have you seen from him?

0:03:15.800 --> 0:03:18.360
<v Speaker 7>And I guess in practice if he needs to fill him.

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:22.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, great, great question about Rashida, He's I think

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:23.840
<v Speaker 2>he's ready. You know, we saw him the week before

0:03:23.840 --> 0:03:25.800
<v Speaker 2>in the four minute made some good, tough runs and

0:03:26.160 --> 0:03:28.359
<v Speaker 2>it was good to see that. It's probably good preparation

0:03:28.400 --> 0:03:30.480
<v Speaker 2>for him because he got hit, had to protect the

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:32.680
<v Speaker 2>football and kind of feel for the speed of the game,

0:03:34.280 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 2>and I think he'll be ready to go. You know,

0:03:36.240 --> 0:03:38.840
<v Speaker 2>he's pretty good in past protection, so in practice he

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:41.200
<v Speaker 2>knows what he's doing. But until you get out there

0:03:41.240 --> 0:03:43.840
<v Speaker 2>and play in a regular game and you challenge with

0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.240
<v Speaker 2>all the things that go with it, you don't really know.

0:03:46.320 --> 0:03:48.560
<v Speaker 2>He'll have an opportunity to kind of show what he's

0:03:48.560 --> 0:03:49.480
<v Speaker 2>all about.

0:03:49.880 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 1>Elvin May he can send in your career.

0:03:51.760 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 7>High in sacks yesterday.

0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:55.680
<v Speaker 1>What do you see about his game that's allowed him

0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:57.760
<v Speaker 1>to have so much success at this point of his career.

0:03:58.240 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know about the comparison. I just know

0:04:00.040 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 2>since he's been here, he's been a pro. He he's

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:04.200
<v Speaker 2>always I think he's always been able to rush the

0:04:04.200 --> 0:04:06.040
<v Speaker 2>passer since he's been here, he has, you know, and

0:04:06.080 --> 0:04:08.840
<v Speaker 2>he's really really finds a way. He's got a good

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:10.240
<v Speaker 2>knack for the game. You know, he's got his sense

0:04:10.280 --> 0:04:12.000
<v Speaker 2>of where the quarterback is gonna go. He made some

0:04:12.040 --> 0:04:15.400
<v Speaker 2>mistakes also in the game yesterday that he was frustrated with,

0:04:15.440 --> 0:04:18.279
<v Speaker 2>but he also made some plays and even on the

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 2>one the turnover play where he didn't do it well,

0:04:20.800 --> 0:04:23.599
<v Speaker 2>but then he hustled and got the ball. So you know,

0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:25.960
<v Speaker 2>he just kind of plays like that, and he's opportunistic

0:04:26.040 --> 0:04:27.360
<v Speaker 2>and veteran guy.

0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 4>It's awesome to see him get all these sacks. It's

0:04:29.800 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 4>really it's one that it's great to see.

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 3>John speaking of Texans pass rushers, Roger rosenbron guy who

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:40.120
<v Speaker 3>we've got another good game yesterday for you guys, and

0:04:40.279 --> 0:04:43.120
<v Speaker 3>a really hid Tja wat Chick had some nice front

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:46.760
<v Speaker 3>blocks as well. What did what's impressed you about his development?

0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:48.120
<v Speaker 4>Steady improvement?

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:50.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean got Lee, you know, Roger, you remember the

0:04:50.520 --> 0:04:52.160
<v Speaker 2>first game or two. You know, he was learning and

0:04:52.520 --> 0:04:54.359
<v Speaker 2>got a couple of tough lessons there, especially in the

0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.600
<v Speaker 2>first game, and nothing really phases him.

0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:58.279
<v Speaker 4>You know, he's got he's a very confident guy.

0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 2>At the same time, he's a he's he understands that

0:05:01.160 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 2>he's I don't think he thinks he's ever going to arrive.

0:05:04.320 --> 0:05:06.080
<v Speaker 2>You know, he's the kind of guy. It's just a

0:05:06.160 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>tough he's kind of a football got a football head.

0:05:09.160 --> 0:05:10.800
<v Speaker 2>You know, he likes football and he likes to work

0:05:10.839 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 2>at He's a competitive guy and he wants to do well.

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:15.159
<v Speaker 2>He's very tenacious and it's paying off.

0:05:16.480 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 5>John, Do you think Keaton Mitchell is ready to go

0:05:18.760 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 5>if you need him this kind of step in Wednesday.

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.680
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, Keaton's been ready to go. It's just a

0:05:23.720 --> 0:05:25.760
<v Speaker 2>matter of you know, there's levels of being ready to go.

0:05:25.800 --> 0:05:27.440
<v Speaker 2>You know, he's coming off the injury. But I would

0:05:27.440 --> 0:05:31.720
<v Speaker 2>say in practice we've seen steady progress with his you know,

0:05:31.760 --> 0:05:33.640
<v Speaker 2>his explosiveness, his quickness and all that.

0:05:33.680 --> 0:05:35.680
<v Speaker 4>And he's been looking good in practice.

0:05:36.240 --> 0:05:38.320
<v Speaker 3>I know it's less than twenty four hours after the game,

0:05:38.360 --> 0:05:39.920
<v Speaker 3>but I mean, do you do you have an affiliate

0:05:40.000 --> 0:05:41.279
<v Speaker 3>for any of the guys who popped up on the

0:05:41.279 --> 0:05:45.760
<v Speaker 3>injury work today there they might not be available on Wednesday.

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:47.840
<v Speaker 4>I think it was Balle and zach.

0:05:49.160 --> 0:05:49.280
<v Speaker 2>Uh.

0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:53.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, pretty optimistic about those guys, Johnathan.

0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:56.440
<v Speaker 8>You see, you know Marlon Humphrey be kept the full

0:05:56.520 --> 0:05:59.560
<v Speaker 8>healthy year basically, and them is taking advantage of that

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:02.560
<v Speaker 8>making the plays that earned him All Pro before, get

0:06:02.600 --> 0:06:04.080
<v Speaker 8>back to being that guy because he's been on the

0:06:04.080 --> 0:06:07.640
<v Speaker 8>field when you need those plays that have been early on,

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:08.360
<v Speaker 8>they weren't there.

0:06:08.279 --> 0:06:09.880
<v Speaker 4>As often as you need it. But to see him

0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.960
<v Speaker 4>do that, How important is that for this team now

0:06:11.960 --> 0:06:13.640
<v Speaker 4>and going forward? Really important?

0:06:14.080 --> 0:06:16.400
<v Speaker 2>You know, Marlin, and we say it sometimes, you know,

0:06:16.440 --> 0:06:19.640
<v Speaker 2>you need your best players playing their best and they

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 2>need to be the guys out there making a difference.

0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:24.200
<v Speaker 2>And anybody can make a difference, but Marlin's a guy

0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.719
<v Speaker 2>we count on. And Marlin comes through and he's made

0:06:26.720 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 2>so many plays for us, and there's a lot of

0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:31.320
<v Speaker 2>guys in that category on this team, and and he

0:06:31.400 --> 0:06:33.120
<v Speaker 2>was the guy yesterday come up with a pick six.

0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.479
<v Speaker 2>I was just a massive play for us. It's one

0:06:36.520 --> 0:06:39.520
<v Speaker 2>of those plays that our difference maker plays and seasons,

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:41.800
<v Speaker 2>I think, and I was pretty fired up and he's

0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.520
<v Speaker 2>running up that sideline, you know, I think everybody was.

0:06:45.760 --> 0:06:47.880
<v Speaker 3>I mean, he said multiple times that he felt like

0:06:47.880 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 3>he took a different approach coming into the season and

0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.000
<v Speaker 3>that he thought it was a big season.

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:53.799
<v Speaker 7>In terms of the trajectory of his career.

0:06:53.839 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 8>I mean, did you get that sense coming into the year.

0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:57.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah.

0:06:57.000 --> 0:06:58.400
<v Speaker 2>He and I talked at the end of last year

0:06:58.400 --> 0:07:00.600
<v Speaker 2>about that, you know, just from a training standpoint and

0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:01.839
<v Speaker 2>kind of what he was going to do in terms

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.080
<v Speaker 2>of his conditioning, and I think he was going to

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.080
<v Speaker 2>get back to some things he had done, you know,

0:07:06.160 --> 0:07:09.280
<v Speaker 2>over the years in terms of getting his body ready,

0:07:09.320 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 2>and it definitely paid off.

0:07:11.680 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 7>John.

0:07:12.520 --> 0:07:15.040
<v Speaker 5>I think thought the last job that George Warhawk had

0:07:15.080 --> 0:07:19.760
<v Speaker 5>before Baltimore with you was on that excuse me, twenty

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:24.120
<v Speaker 5>twenty two Texans team when you kind of were interviewing

0:07:24.200 --> 0:07:26.200
<v Speaker 5>him for the position on the staff, did you guys

0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:28.200
<v Speaker 5>talk at all about maybe what he'd learned from that.

0:07:28.240 --> 0:07:29.920
<v Speaker 5>I know he's been around the block a bunch of times,

0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:31.960
<v Speaker 5>but just you'd kind of take away from what he'd

0:07:32.000 --> 0:07:33.960
<v Speaker 5>taken from that Texas spot and maybe what he would

0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:36.000
<v Speaker 5>bring to Baltimore building on the experience.

0:07:39.240 --> 0:07:39.360
<v Speaker 4>You know.

0:07:39.400 --> 0:07:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I've known George since we were both twenty five, you know,

0:07:43.080 --> 0:07:45.280
<v Speaker 2>and he was he was the assistant offensive line coach

0:07:45.320 --> 0:07:49.240
<v Speaker 2>at Kansas with Mike Salari and Mike Salari is one

0:07:49.280 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 2>of the legendary offensive line coaches, and he trained he

0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:55.200
<v Speaker 2>trained hop you know, and then you know, we not

0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:57.160
<v Speaker 2>like we were best buddies through the years, but we

0:07:57.440 --> 0:07:59.720
<v Speaker 2>knew of each other and kind of you know, decid

0:08:00.200 --> 0:08:02.800
<v Speaker 2>his career, and I know how highly respected he was,

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:05.000
<v Speaker 2>so there really was no interview. It wasn't like we

0:08:05.040 --> 0:08:06.880
<v Speaker 2>need I need to find anything out about him. I

0:08:06.960 --> 0:08:08.840
<v Speaker 2>knew what kind of a coach he was, and the

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:12.200
<v Speaker 2>circumstances as they were. Uh, he was available and he

0:08:12.240 --> 0:08:14.280
<v Speaker 2>wanted to do it, and it was just a you know,

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.440
<v Speaker 2>it was a godsend. He really was a godsend for

0:08:16.480 --> 0:08:19.640
<v Speaker 2>our team. And and I think I think George is

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:21.240
<v Speaker 2>happy and he's doing a great job.

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:31.480
<v Speaker 4>All right, all right, great, thanks.

0:08:27.560 --> 0:08:29.600
<v Speaker 1>Next up here, safety, Kyle Hoilton.

0:08:34.520 --> 0:08:36.880
<v Speaker 8>Did you turn around like this? I mean interesting to

0:08:36.920 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 8>come into work.

0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:39.440
<v Speaker 6>Today and have to believe it if it's a walk

0:08:39.520 --> 0:08:41.360
<v Speaker 6>through practice, just take us some challenge of that.

0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:45.640
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, obviously it's a physical challenge and mental trying to

0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:46.560
<v Speaker 9>get your mind off the game.

0:08:46.600 --> 0:08:49.120
<v Speaker 7>And luckily we want so a little easier to do that.

0:08:49.160 --> 0:08:52.160
<v Speaker 9>But you know, it's every team that plays on what's

0:08:52.200 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 9>a's do with it? So we're not gonna play it's

0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:54.959
<v Speaker 9>it's part of the business.

0:08:55.120 --> 0:08:56.520
<v Speaker 4>I'm back to the defense.

0:08:56.600 --> 0:08:59.680
<v Speaker 6>Yesterday making so many key plays more times kind of

0:08:59.720 --> 0:09:02.280
<v Speaker 6>wave those key plays this year from that group, and

0:09:02.360 --> 0:09:04.439
<v Speaker 6>you feel like you've you've asked you for it. Is

0:09:04.480 --> 0:09:06.000
<v Speaker 6>you turn a corner or is it just like, hey,

0:09:06.000 --> 0:09:07.000
<v Speaker 6>what's your next minute?

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:09.360
<v Speaker 7>Yeah? I think it's it's a week's week thing. Obviously.

0:09:09.360 --> 0:09:12.319
<v Speaker 9>You know, we gotta stack these kinds of performances. I

0:09:12.320 --> 0:09:14.080
<v Speaker 9>think they're still ton of stuff we could have gotten

0:09:14.080 --> 0:09:16.880
<v Speaker 9>better or done better during the game, but you see

0:09:16.920 --> 0:09:19.600
<v Speaker 9>those big players what they can do in terms of

0:09:19.800 --> 0:09:22.280
<v Speaker 9>making a difference on the outcome, and it would have

0:09:22.280 --> 0:09:24.600
<v Speaker 9>been a completely different game if we had made those plays.

0:09:24.600 --> 0:09:28.920
<v Speaker 9>So shout out to our Darius, Marlin, everybody that contributed.

0:09:29.080 --> 0:09:31.160
<v Speaker 9>And you know, ultimately that does get the one.

0:09:31.520 --> 0:09:34.640
<v Speaker 8>Do you believe in any kind of carryover effect from

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:36.360
<v Speaker 8>such a sad swing and maybe does it get your

0:09:36.360 --> 0:09:39.680
<v Speaker 8>guys thinking there's there's orders that we can't win every game.

0:09:41.559 --> 0:09:43.080
<v Speaker 9>Yeah, I mean I feel like we think that before

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:46.800
<v Speaker 9>every game though. You know, even if we were zero

0:09:46.840 --> 0:09:48.240
<v Speaker 9>and sixteen going a week eight.

0:09:48.080 --> 0:09:50.000
<v Speaker 7>Teen, I'm sure that we would like we're about to

0:09:50.000 --> 0:09:51.160
<v Speaker 7>go win this game by thirty point.

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:53.920
<v Speaker 9>So it's it's something that you can't just pick and

0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:56.080
<v Speaker 9>choose your mindset of Hey, I think we can win

0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:58.040
<v Speaker 9>this one. Hey it's gonna be a tough game, and

0:09:58.240 --> 0:09:59.760
<v Speaker 9>you know every game this week's gonna be tough, but

0:09:59.840 --> 0:10:01.600
<v Speaker 9>you to go with them said that you're gonna win.

0:10:02.440 --> 0:10:06.040
<v Speaker 5>Do you think you were you aware with the areos?

0:10:06.120 --> 0:10:08.199
<v Speaker 7>Do you think about it and people talk about it.

0:10:08.200 --> 0:10:09.160
<v Speaker 9>Or you guys just look at it.

0:10:09.240 --> 0:10:11.240
<v Speaker 7>So we just haven't been playing at nothing else matters.

0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:14.240
<v Speaker 7>I have no clue how it works out. I mean,

0:10:14.240 --> 0:10:15.840
<v Speaker 7>we were just trying to win all the games and

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.319
<v Speaker 7>that we can. And you know, if we.

0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.640
<v Speaker 9>Get home games in the playoffs or not, you know,

0:10:20.679 --> 0:10:21.839
<v Speaker 9>we're trying to win those games too.

0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:23.040
<v Speaker 7>And I think at the end of the day.

0:10:22.960 --> 0:10:26.040
<v Speaker 9>Whatever cards were dealt, whatever cards we end up playing

0:10:26.040 --> 0:10:28.280
<v Speaker 9>ourselves into, doesn't matter.

0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:29.000
<v Speaker 7>We're gonna do what we do.

0:10:29.400 --> 0:10:31.640
<v Speaker 6>Saw CJ twice last year, and we could take away

0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:32.440
<v Speaker 6>from those games.

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.160
<v Speaker 8>Uh.

0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:37.080
<v Speaker 9>I think there's a little bit, you know, playing against them.

0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:38.559
<v Speaker 9>Obviously he was a rookie last year. It's gonna be

0:10:38.559 --> 0:10:41.560
<v Speaker 9>different going against it this year. He's seen whole full season.

0:10:41.880 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 9>We played him first game of his career and then

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.400
<v Speaker 9>in the playoffs last year. But you know, unfortunately they

0:10:48.440 --> 0:10:50.200
<v Speaker 9>had some injuries and stuff like that, so it's gonna

0:10:50.200 --> 0:10:52.559
<v Speaker 9>be a little different at the team, and uh, praying

0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:54.240
<v Speaker 9>for those guys that they have over there. I know

0:10:54.280 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 9>that a few receivers. Obviously, Tank just got hurt. Hate

0:10:56.760 --> 0:11:00.000
<v Speaker 9>to see that. And in this league, no matter who's

0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:02.200
<v Speaker 9>who's playing, you know, it's it's part of the game.

0:11:02.200 --> 0:11:04.160
<v Speaker 9>But it's tough to watch and praying for him and

0:11:04.200 --> 0:11:06.840
<v Speaker 9>all those guys over there. But but yeah, I mean

0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:10.240
<v Speaker 9>CJ's great quarterback and it's not gonna be easy to

0:11:10.280 --> 0:11:14.520
<v Speaker 9>ask getting him off his game and hopefully making him

0:11:14.520 --> 0:11:16.280
<v Speaker 9>have a bad game. So it's gonna start with the

0:11:16.360 --> 0:11:18.320
<v Speaker 9>run game, knocking out the run game, and then from

0:11:18.320 --> 0:11:19.600
<v Speaker 9>then on just getting out of the quarterback.

0:11:19.760 --> 0:11:23.319
<v Speaker 3>Kyle Marlins had, you know, probably playing at the wall

0:11:23.400 --> 0:11:26.480
<v Speaker 3>pro level again this year. What have you seen from

0:11:26.559 --> 0:11:29.280
<v Speaker 3>him that's stood out to you? And and just how

0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.520
<v Speaker 3>significant is it to have a guy like.

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:35.679
<v Speaker 9>That playing, you know, kind of back to that, But yeah,

0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.920
<v Speaker 9>I don't think he changed really anything. You know, sometimes

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:42.000
<v Speaker 9>you know, he's struggling with injuries last year. Sometimes things

0:11:42.000 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 9>go your way and sometimes they don't. You know, outsiders

0:11:45.360 --> 0:11:49.240
<v Speaker 9>kind of have a quick life shelf with NFL or

0:11:49.360 --> 0:11:51.160
<v Speaker 9>just athletes in general. You know, you got one bad

0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:53.680
<v Speaker 9>outing and now you're terrible and come back and he's

0:11:53.679 --> 0:11:56.240
<v Speaker 9>doing He's what everybod's accustomed to him doing.

0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:57.240
<v Speaker 7>It's normal to us.

0:11:57.320 --> 0:12:00.840
<v Speaker 9>But just happy to see him doing he's doing right now,

0:12:00.880 --> 0:12:03.120
<v Speaker 9>and I know that he's gonna carry it on throughout

0:12:03.120 --> 0:12:03.760
<v Speaker 9>the rest of the year.

0:12:03.800 --> 0:12:06.480
<v Speaker 7>And I think him playing Nickel has really helped us.

0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:09.800
<v Speaker 9>A lot, and his mobilities flexibility when we're not Nickel

0:12:09.840 --> 0:12:11.080
<v Speaker 9>to go out to the wide.

0:12:10.880 --> 0:12:13.000
<v Speaker 7>Corner as well. Opps is out of ton, So huge

0:12:13.040 --> 0:12:14.600
<v Speaker 7>props to him just coming back this year and.

0:12:14.559 --> 0:12:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Do what you need to do. Does this week feel

0:12:17.200 --> 0:12:20.199
<v Speaker 1>any different from like a Sunday to Thursday kind of

0:12:20.240 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>week or is it different?

0:12:21.840 --> 0:12:23.120
<v Speaker 7>Feeling a little bit?

0:12:23.160 --> 0:12:24.760
<v Speaker 9>It was kind of weird seeing the game it's being

0:12:24.800 --> 0:12:29.600
<v Speaker 9>played today, but you know what, I assume they did

0:12:29.600 --> 0:12:31.680
<v Speaker 9>that so we can end up playing on Christmas, and

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:35.120
<v Speaker 9>you know, I mean it's kind of kind of nice

0:12:35.120 --> 0:12:36.640
<v Speaker 9>giving him out the way. It's just boom boom boom.

0:12:36.679 --> 0:12:39.600
<v Speaker 9>Three games done and now we got Cleveland after this

0:12:39.679 --> 0:12:42.800
<v Speaker 9>week and going to the playoffs. But yeah, like I said,

0:12:42.800 --> 0:12:45.960
<v Speaker 9>it was just we're taking one. I would say one

0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 9>week at a time. But it's really just one game

0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:48.960
<v Speaker 9>at a time. We're playing like four times a week.

0:12:49.040 --> 0:12:53.480
<v Speaker 9>But I don't think it's on anybody's mind. We're just

0:12:53.559 --> 0:12:54.600
<v Speaker 9>going out there to play the game.

0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:56.640
<v Speaker 7>You had a big game on Christmas last year.

0:12:56.679 --> 0:12:59.959
<v Speaker 1>Any any feelings about playing on Christmas two years straight on.

0:12:59.920 --> 0:13:04.040
<v Speaker 7>The right, Uh, it's a blessing. Obviously.

0:13:04.040 --> 0:13:06.400
<v Speaker 9>I wish we could be at home celebrating with family,

0:13:06.440 --> 0:13:09.160
<v Speaker 9>but I mean it's not the job title. So uh,

0:13:09.360 --> 0:13:11.080
<v Speaker 9>you know, we're we're excited to go out there and

0:13:11.080 --> 0:13:14.640
<v Speaker 9>play in front of the world. Netflix numbers not be

0:13:14.640 --> 0:13:17.440
<v Speaker 9>a little inflated like the Mike Tyson fight. But I'm

0:13:17.480 --> 0:13:19.160
<v Speaker 9>sure it's to be posted everywhere, all the records and

0:13:19.200 --> 0:13:21.600
<v Speaker 9>stuff like that. But uh, you know, it's a blessing

0:13:21.640 --> 0:13:23.480
<v Speaker 9>to go out and do what we love on game day.

0:13:23.520 --> 0:13:26.000
<v Speaker 9>I have all our families at home watching Dame.

0:13:25.840 --> 0:13:28.720
<v Speaker 4>With a home playoff game. Ben atmosphere be like, man

0:13:28.800 --> 0:13:31.839
<v Speaker 4>that would have been watching. What you do you think?

0:13:32.800 --> 0:13:36.160
<v Speaker 9>Oh, it was awesome. You know everybody wants to trash

0:13:36.200 --> 0:13:39.000
<v Speaker 9>on Notre Dame. It's just it's like they you hate us,

0:13:39.000 --> 0:13:43.400
<v Speaker 9>if you're if you hate us, so everybody in here

0:13:43.480 --> 0:13:45.400
<v Speaker 9>especially real quantum. Sure' gonna have some stuff to say

0:13:45.400 --> 0:13:47.560
<v Speaker 9>about the next game and we'll see.

0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.880
<v Speaker 7>Though. I think we're I think we're gonna genuinely win.

0:13:49.960 --> 0:13:52.000
<v Speaker 7>That's championship with yourself. Quote me on that.

0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:53.520
<v Speaker 9>If we win or lose, I don't really care, but

0:13:54.400 --> 0:13:58.000
<v Speaker 9>you know we're we're headed that way.

0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:02.079
<v Speaker 1>Thanks for listen. As you might imagine, it's an altered

0:14:02.120 --> 0:14:05.640
<v Speaker 1>week from a media perspective. With Christmas Week. The Ravens

0:14:05.679 --> 0:14:09.440
<v Speaker 1>will have one more day of a media availability tomorrow,

0:14:09.600 --> 0:14:11.920
<v Speaker 1>where we'll hear from coach Harball again as well as

0:14:12.000 --> 0:14:14.720
<v Speaker 1>quarterback Lamar Jackson and others. Thanks for listening.
