Speaker 1: Yeah, Fred, how do you kind of balance processing we
Speaker 1: had the way this season ended and dealing with that
Speaker 1: kind of I don't I don't know who grief is
Speaker 1: a little bit too of an extreme word, but then
Speaker 1: also putting it behind you and moving forward for the
Speaker 1: next season. Yeah. No, I've honestly more so of the
Speaker 1: kind of reflecting on what happened in the game and
Speaker 1: then what happened throughout the season. Um, you know, you
Speaker 1: kind of wanna you want to remember things like this
Speaker 1: for later on, you know, the these type of things
Speaker 1: make you stronger and you learn a lot from them,
Speaker 1: and there's there's so much time to move past it
Speaker 1: and get onto the next but I think this is
Speaker 1: the time right now. I kind of wanted still for
Speaker 1: us to kind of, you know, sit in it and reflect.
Speaker 1: And uh so that's kind of what I've been doing
Speaker 1: different is reflecting. You can kind of difficult playoff houses before,
Speaker 1: but this one things a little different, just in terms
Speaker 1: of during the game you real if you probably realize
Speaker 1: what it is, probably we've got a quarterback. It's that
Speaker 1: could be pretty table. Is a different process going through
Speaker 1: that where it's supposed to maybe the last the super
Speaker 1: Bowl and answe gym game thinking individual plays where if
Speaker 1: it's gone different different, Yeah, I know it sucks. Um,
Speaker 1: I've never been a part of something like that in
Speaker 1: the game when when you you're already on your on
Speaker 1: your third quarterback, you know, and you lose him, you
Speaker 1: lose your fourth. Um, it's uh, it's kind of crazy,
Speaker 1: crazy to think about, right, I would have. I wish
Speaker 1: we could have just you know, went out on our
Speaker 1: sword and say that we we had you know, as
Speaker 1: Monoi mono and they were the better team in one.
Speaker 1: But um, you know, each each one is different, and
Speaker 1: it's as cliche as it's to say that we'll be
Speaker 1: back next year better than ever. You know, that's that's
Speaker 1: kind of just the mindset. I don't know, cheated at all?
Speaker 1: Or is that just life in the NFL. That's life.
Speaker 1: That's life in the NFL, and that's life in general.
Speaker 1: You know. Um, it just has a way of punching
Speaker 1: you in the mouth sometimes, you know, and and things
Speaker 1: not going your way. But it's how you bounce back,
Speaker 1: it's how you respond from it, what you learn from it, um,
Speaker 1: you know, because if you if you don't look at
Speaker 1: it that way, then you're just gonna soak a misery
Speaker 1: and be like, man, what was me? But I'm looking
Speaker 1: at the positives. Will it be difficult to watch the
Speaker 1: super Bowl? Given how it all in? It always is
Speaker 1: when you're not in it and you're not winning, it's
Speaker 1: always hard. What's something you learned about this team this year?
Speaker 1: Specifically on the highest of the highs and then how Um?
Speaker 1: I mean I learned a whole lot. I mean I've
Speaker 1: never been a part of a season like this where
Speaker 1: you know you're down three or four, um, seven games
Speaker 1: through and then you go on to win all the
Speaker 1: rest of your games, all the way down to the
Speaker 1: to the last game. Um, you know, all the adversity
Speaker 1: we went through, you know, with the quarterback situation and
Speaker 1: uh having a number one defense and working through you know,
Speaker 1: just kind of improving, trying to be our best and um,
Speaker 1: you know we had a team ready to win it all.
Speaker 1: It just obviously didn't go away. What are the emotions,
Speaker 1: you know, knowing that the roster is gonna look it
Speaker 1: looks different every year obviously, but you know, just with
Speaker 1: contracts and everything, I know, you guys had a lot
Speaker 1: of confidence in this group, in a strong locker room. Yeah,
Speaker 1: every year, every year, a lot of turnover. It's always
Speaker 1: a different team, you know, this this year especially, you know,
Speaker 1: we're most likely losing our our defense coordinator. Uh the
Speaker 1: guy came in with you know, and and uh oh
Speaker 1: a lot too, so that'll look different. Uh A lot
Speaker 1: of players will be moving on different teams. So it's
Speaker 1: always different. It's uh the more you're in it, the
Speaker 1: more you see like it's never the same. But uh,
Speaker 1: you know what, we'll be back and and be better.
Speaker 1: What what's something that Damiko Ryan's taught you that will
Speaker 1: stick with you? Oh? Man, I don't know if I
Speaker 1: could picked his one. Uh it it was just it
Speaker 1: was a perfect match, honestly, given where I was coming from,
Speaker 1: out of by U, out of position or position list,
Speaker 1: I guess you could say. And um being asked to
Speaker 1: play the my position and a guy who had played
Speaker 1: it at a high level and knew what it took
Speaker 1: to to play at a high level to help development
Speaker 1: and m you know, I'm not the player I am
Speaker 1: today without him. For you said this team is ready
Speaker 1: to win it all because of that, Do you think
Speaker 1: that they're it's going to be a sense of urgency
Speaker 1: in the off season with the front office, especially if
Speaker 1: you know Kroc has a long term recovery ahead of him. Um,
Speaker 1: I think I think every year there's honestly a sense
Speaker 1: of urgency. I felt all all the way since I
Speaker 1: was a rookie. You know, there's always the expectation to
Speaker 1: win and win now. It's that's how it's always been
Speaker 1: for me since I've been here. What has Span Sport
Speaker 1: been like at the right Studium this season? It's been
Speaker 1: amazing every year. Every year they show up and they
Speaker 1: show out regardless of the situation, whether we're you know,
Speaker 1: we're three or four, or we're on a twelve game
Speaker 1: win streak. They were with us and with a strong
Speaker 1: all the way through, and I appreciate them. And what
Speaker 1: was your highlight of the season. The moment that you
Speaker 1: circling The moment I circled It had to be the
Speaker 1: Divisional round against the Cowboys. Um, being at home against
Speaker 1: you know, a historical rival for SID was electric all
Speaker 1: the way through and I always remember that game. Thanks
Speaker 1: all right, guys, you got it everything. You got it there. Wait,
