1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:09,719
Speaker 1: Yeah, Fred, how do you kind of balance processing we

2
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:11,959
Speaker 1: had the way this season ended and dealing with that

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: kind of I don't I don't know who grief is

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:16,120
Speaker 1: a little bit too of an extreme word, but then

5
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: also putting it behind you and moving forward for the

6
00:00:18,440 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: next season. Yeah. No, I've honestly more so of the

7
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:27,600
Speaker 1: kind of reflecting on what happened in the game and

8
00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: then what happened throughout the season. Um, you know, you

9
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: kind of wanna you want to remember things like this

10
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:36,120
Speaker 1: for later on, you know, the these type of things

11
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: make you stronger and you learn a lot from them,

12
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:40,559
Speaker 1: and there's there's so much time to move past it

13
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:43,400
Speaker 1: and get onto the next but I think this is

14
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:45,000
Speaker 1: the time right now. I kind of wanted still for

15
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: us to kind of, you know, sit in it and reflect.

16
00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:50,199
Speaker 1: And uh so that's kind of what I've been doing

17
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 1: different is reflecting. You can kind of difficult playoff houses before,

18
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,240
Speaker 1: but this one things a little different, just in terms

19
00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 1: of during the game you real if you probably realize

20
00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 1: what it is, probably we've got a quarterback. It's that

21
00:01:01,520 --> 00:01:04,960
Speaker 1: could be pretty table. Is a different process going through

22
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 1: that where it's supposed to maybe the last the super

23
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: Bowl and answe gym game thinking individual plays where if

24
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: it's gone different different, Yeah, I know it sucks. Um,

25
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: I've never been a part of something like that in

26
00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:19,399
Speaker 1: the game when when you you're already on your on

27
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,720
Speaker 1: your third quarterback, you know, and you lose him, you

28
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: lose your fourth. Um, it's uh, it's kind of crazy,

29
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,880
Speaker 1: crazy to think about, right, I would have. I wish

30
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:30,320
Speaker 1: we could have just you know, went out on our

31
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: sword and say that we we had you know, as

32
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: Monoi mono and they were the better team in one.

33
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 1: But um, you know, each each one is different, and

34
00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:43,160
Speaker 1: it's as cliche as it's to say that we'll be

35
00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: back next year better than ever. You know, that's that's

36
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,760
Speaker 1: kind of just the mindset. I don't know, cheated at all?

37
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 1: Or is that just life in the NFL. That's life.

38
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,200
Speaker 1: That's life in the NFL, and that's life in general.

39
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:56,720
Speaker 1: You know. Um, it just has a way of punching

40
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 1: you in the mouth sometimes, you know, and and things

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: not going your way. But it's how you bounce back,

42
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: it's how you respond from it, what you learn from it, um,

43
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: you know, because if you if you don't look at

44
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: it that way, then you're just gonna soak a misery

45
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:10,360
Speaker 1: and be like, man, what was me? But I'm looking

46
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,200
Speaker 1: at the positives. Will it be difficult to watch the

47
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:15,920
Speaker 1: super Bowl? Given how it all in? It always is

48
00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,160
Speaker 1: when you're not in it and you're not winning, it's

49
00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:21,840
Speaker 1: always hard. What's something you learned about this team this year?

50
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,680
Speaker 1: Specifically on the highest of the highs and then how Um?

51
00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean I learned a whole lot. I mean I've

52
00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: never been a part of a season like this where

53
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,760
Speaker 1: you know you're down three or four, um, seven games

54
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: through and then you go on to win all the

55
00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: rest of your games, all the way down to the

56
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 1: to the last game. Um, you know, all the adversity

57
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,799
Speaker 1: we went through, you know, with the quarterback situation and

58
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:50,880
Speaker 1: uh having a number one defense and working through you know,

59
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:54,960
Speaker 1: just kind of improving, trying to be our best and um,

60
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,639
Speaker 1: you know we had a team ready to win it all.

61
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,519
Speaker 1: It just obviously didn't go away. What are the emotions,

62
00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,000
Speaker 1: you know, knowing that the roster is gonna look it

63
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,040
Speaker 1: looks different every year obviously, but you know, just with

64
00:03:04,120 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 1: contracts and everything, I know, you guys had a lot

65
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 1: of confidence in this group, in a strong locker room. Yeah,

66
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: every year, every year, a lot of turnover. It's always

67
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 1: a different team, you know, this this year especially, you know,

68
00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:17,920
Speaker 1: we're most likely losing our our defense coordinator. Uh the

69
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:20,280
Speaker 1: guy came in with you know, and and uh oh

70
00:03:20,360 --> 00:03:23,440
Speaker 1: a lot too, so that'll look different. Uh A lot

71
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:26,480
Speaker 1: of players will be moving on different teams. So it's

72
00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: always different. It's uh the more you're in it, the

73
00:03:29,600 --> 00:03:32,960
Speaker 1: more you see like it's never the same. But uh,

74
00:03:33,040 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: you know what, we'll be back and and be better.

75
00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,280
Speaker 1: What what's something that Damiko Ryan's taught you that will

76
00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,280
Speaker 1: stick with you? Oh? Man, I don't know if I

77
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:45,680
Speaker 1: could picked his one. Uh it it was just it

78
00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: was a perfect match, honestly, given where I was coming from,

79
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 1: out of by U, out of position or position list,

80
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: I guess you could say. And um being asked to

81
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:57,640
Speaker 1: play the my position and a guy who had played

82
00:03:57,640 --> 00:03:59,480
Speaker 1: it at a high level and knew what it took

83
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 1: to to play at a high level to help development

84
00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: and m you know, I'm not the player I am

85
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,880
Speaker 1: today without him. For you said this team is ready

86
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: to win it all because of that, Do you think

87
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:12,200
Speaker 1: that they're it's going to be a sense of urgency

88
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: in the off season with the front office, especially if

89
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: you know Kroc has a long term recovery ahead of him. Um,

90
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 1: I think I think every year there's honestly a sense

91
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,080
Speaker 1: of urgency. I felt all all the way since I

92
00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: was a rookie. You know, there's always the expectation to

93
00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 1: win and win now. It's that's how it's always been

94
00:04:30,160 --> 00:04:32,279
Speaker 1: for me since I've been here. What has Span Sport

95
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: been like at the right Studium this season? It's been

96
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,240
Speaker 1: amazing every year. Every year they show up and they

97
00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,159
Speaker 1: show out regardless of the situation, whether we're you know,

98
00:04:41,200 --> 00:04:43,160
Speaker 1: we're three or four, or we're on a twelve game

99
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 1: win streak. They were with us and with a strong

100
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:47,920
Speaker 1: all the way through, and I appreciate them. And what

101
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:50,040
Speaker 1: was your highlight of the season. The moment that you

102
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:53,280
Speaker 1: circling The moment I circled It had to be the

103
00:04:53,960 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 1: Divisional round against the Cowboys. Um, being at home against

104
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 1: you know, a historical rival for SID was electric all

105
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,600
Speaker 1: the way through and I always remember that game. Thanks

106
00:05:05,600 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 1: all right, guys, you got it everything. You got it there. Wait,
