1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:01,480
Speaker 1: Guys for the game.

2
00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:04,200
Speaker 2: We got Orrin Burks will be questionable and Khalia Davis

3
00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,159
Speaker 2: questionable go ahead.

4
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:08,440
Speaker 3: So that's pretty good news on Dieba. What does it

5
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:11,920
Speaker 3: mean just to have him not, you know, be a factor.

6
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: As far as the injury report, it's huge.

7
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:17,040
Speaker 2: I mean, a little scary at the beginning of the week,

8
00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,160
Speaker 2: but the factor he's able to go full go today

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: and the restrictions on him is definitely a good thing

10
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:22,040
Speaker 2: for us.

11
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:25,200
Speaker 1: What are the injuries with the Burks? Burk's had a

12
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: collision yesterday, so he's got a shoulder. What are you

13
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:31,360
Speaker 1: seeing there?

14
00:00:32,159 --> 00:00:33,800
Speaker 3: He's running back Jamier Gibs.

15
00:00:33,800 --> 00:00:35,879
Speaker 2: Are there any similarities to to Christian just with the

16
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:36,879
Speaker 2: traits and the.

17
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: Size and all those things.

18
00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean they're both really good backs. I mean

19
00:00:41,040 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 2: he's a rookie in this league, but everyone knew some

20
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:44,720
Speaker 2: him coming out of college how good he was going

21
00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:46,960
Speaker 2: to be. He's just getting started. He's gonna have a

22
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 2: hell of a career. The speed he has is as

23
00:00:49,920 --> 00:00:52,440
Speaker 2: good as anyone's. But he also run hards, can make

24
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 2: the cuts, and he's got another good back to pair

25
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:55,120
Speaker 2: with him.

26
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 3: Was it was depot Was it just a pain tolerance thing?

27
00:00:57,920 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: Is waiting for paid to go away kind of thing.

28
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,760
Speaker 3: Yes, yeah, what did you learn from Rock on Saturday?

29
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,640
Speaker 2: Nothing that we don't already know. I mean, thought it

30
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,800
Speaker 2: did enough to win us that game. It was a

31
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:15,040
Speaker 2: stud at the end, especially on that final drive. And

32
00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:21,000
Speaker 2: same guy has been every day. In December.

33
00:01:21,040 --> 00:01:23,880
Speaker 3: You said about Brock that and also other players that

34
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,679
Speaker 3: you'd rather have a player that's hard on themselves than

35
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:30,280
Speaker 3: the other way around. I'm curious, how do you assess yourself?

36
00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:31,840
Speaker 1: Like, how hard are you on yourself?

37
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,480
Speaker 2: You should probably ask people who know me well, but uh,

38
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,839
Speaker 2: I think I'm pretty hard. People that know you say,

39
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:42,360
Speaker 2: you know, I think you're too hard on yourself. Yeah,

40
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: it's I mean I think if you're not hard on yourself,

41
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,960
Speaker 2: it's kind of hard to put in the work and

42
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: stuff that it takes. I think to be an NFL coach,

43
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,200
Speaker 2: and I think most of us are pretty hard on ourself,

44
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:55,640
Speaker 2: kind of perfectionists, because you know, it's kind of you

45
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 2: know how hard it is to win games for everybody,

46
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 2: so you demand a lot out of everybody, just like

47
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: you demand.

48
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:03,080
Speaker 1: A lot out of yourself. So it's a very.

49
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:06,080
Speaker 2: Final line and winning and losing, so you question every

50
00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 2: single thing, every single moment, and that always starts with yourself.

51
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 1: We won't talk to you, Colin until the end of

52
00:02:11,919 --> 00:02:12,280
Speaker 1: the game.

53
00:02:13,200 --> 00:02:15,160
Speaker 3: One are the final forty eight hours before the game

54
00:02:15,200 --> 00:02:16,120
Speaker 3: for life.

55
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,480
Speaker 2: For you, Usually the final forty eight hours are a

56
00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 2: lot better than the first forty eight hours. It gets

57
00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:24,240
Speaker 2: more relaxing. As the week goes, you feel more prepared.

58
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: I mean, you always start out the week stressed out.

59
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:31,000
Speaker 2: It's you pull on tape. There's a lot to absorb

60
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 2: in I think. I think always when you can do

61
00:02:33,919 --> 00:02:35,359
Speaker 2: the best is you start out a week with a

62
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: fear to fail. That's always what gets you to work

63
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 2: and put in the stuff, and you want that to

64
00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 2: be natural that you can make that go away. And

65
00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: usually by the work you put in, the plan, you

66
00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,079
Speaker 2: put together, watching the players do it, going through the practice,

67
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:51,480
Speaker 2: get to know another team. Usually by the time you

68
00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: get to this time, which after this we consider kind

69
00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: of our weekend because we get out of here about

70
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 2: three hours.

71
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: And it's a lot more relaxing.

72
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: Ketch up on sleep and get ready for a Saturday

73
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 2: night meeting tomorrow and usually watching me uh movie Saturday

74
00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:07,119
Speaker 2: night before go to bed and you wake up and

75
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,200
Speaker 2: it's on and something you've been getting ready for and

76
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 2: you're ready for it by Sunday, Well do you kick offs?

77
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:16,920
Speaker 1: MM? I don't know. We haven't talked about that yet. Uh,

78
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,559
Speaker 1: he might. Yeah.

79
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 3: Does he have any sort of limitations at all?

80
00:03:20,440 --> 00:03:21,160
Speaker 1: No? None.

81
00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:25,560
Speaker 3: Does he risk further, you know, damaging the the shoulder

82
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 3: it it plays, no shoulder bruise.

83
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:30,640
Speaker 1: I don't know.

84
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:34,520
Speaker 2: I don't ask questions like that, not at all.

85
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:37,880
Speaker 1: Then I'd have to be lying. Now. It's really easy

86
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: for me when I don't know either.

87
00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,000
Speaker 3: Even how you said on Wednesday that you were feeling

88
00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 3: better about potentially his status, were you able to kind

89
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,680
Speaker 3: of treat the game plan normally you.

90
00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 1: Know with his Yeah, you gotta always have contingencies.

91
00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: But just talking to him how he felt Monday compared

92
00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 2: to Saturday, and you know he had shoulder stuff earlier

93
00:03:55,360 --> 00:03:56,720
Speaker 2: in the year, and comparing it to then and the

94
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: difference and by the time how he felt Wednesday. So

95
00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 2: you know, we're real worried right after the game because

96
00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 2: he kind of go back in and kind of finish that,

97
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:05,880
Speaker 2: which is always concerned.

98
00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 1: But you get the medical reports and you know.

99
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,320
Speaker 2: That it is possible, just because depends on the pain

100
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,680
Speaker 2: tolerance and how it heals, and uh, he had a

101
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,720
Speaker 2: great practice yesterday and then by today, I mean he's

102
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: full going stuff, so kind of out of side, out

103
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 2: of mind right now.

104
00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:22,960
Speaker 1: Oh, which havn't gone through this game three years in

105
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: a row, four times in the last five years.

106
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,599
Speaker 3: Are there notes you write yourself during the week to

107
00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,200
Speaker 3: maybe to remind yourself on game day not to forget

108
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:34,000
Speaker 3: whether it's you know, plays or just a message you

109
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,240
Speaker 3: want to prove to your team.

110
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 2: Uh, yes, but not really based off of previous experiences.

111
00:04:38,880 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 2: That's off of what you think is happening right now.

112
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:44,080
Speaker 2: So it's you never stop thinking about the situations from

113
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,000
Speaker 2: when you know how you're playing to win. The game's over,

114
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 2: it never stops. Everything's adjustin. That's kind of how a

115
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 2: game is. It's how weak is h You never know

116
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 2: how game's gonna unfold. You prepare for everything possible, and

117
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 2: then that kickoff starts and you're sitting there with a

118
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,679
Speaker 2: clear mind ready to react.

119
00:04:58,720 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 1: And and that's that's why.

120
00:05:00,880 --> 00:05:02,480
Speaker 2: I like when it doesn't rain, so I can make

121
00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,480
Speaker 2: notes on my call sheet and then not get smear.

122
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,680
Speaker 2: That's my biggest problem with the rain. But yeah, you

123
00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,159
Speaker 2: make notes all the time for yourself to ask.

124
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:13,320
Speaker 3: Me about Alfred or Mexican player.

125
00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:22,400
Speaker 1: Your thoughts on who's coming to the team. What's that? Yeah, yeah,

126
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,160
Speaker 1: well I love Fredo. It's been awesome.

127
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:26,359
Speaker 2: You know, you never know it's gonna be when you

128
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,560
Speaker 2: get that extra player, but to get a guy of

129
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 2: Fredo size and stuff like that, it's been great to

130
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 2: be able to use him and things.

131
00:05:31,839 --> 00:05:33,719
Speaker 1: I think he's got a lot of better since he's been.

132
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: Here, and he's an awesome dude. Guys love him. For Christmas,

133
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 2: he got me a Mexican bottle of tequila with a

134
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: real scorpion in it, so I.

135
00:05:42,880 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: Thought that was very cool.

136
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,600
Speaker 2: Coming to the team, I don't know yet, so I'm

137
00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:51,839
Speaker 2: looking forward to get to know.

138
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,760
Speaker 1: M question.

139
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:57,760
Speaker 3: Head coach the Falcons. Kind of your thoughts on him getting.

140
00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 2: That opportunity, it's way past too verhems one of the

141
00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:03,040
Speaker 2: best coaches I've been with. Uh, he's I got to

142
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 2: work with him earlier in my career in Tampa. Always

143
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 2: always just trying to when I was young, trying to

144
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 2: get my dad hire him as a decordinator, and uh

145
00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 2: he ended up becoming a head coach so fast. And

146
00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: then I got a chance to work with him in

147
00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:18,600
Speaker 2: Washington and then Atlanta. He actually was on defense. He

148
00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 2: gotta come work with me on offense for a year,

149
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:22,680
Speaker 2: and I was as good of a coach. The fact

150
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 2: that he was on defense his whole career and can

151
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:25,600
Speaker 2: come be our receiver coach.

152
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,719
Speaker 1: Was unbelievable, how cool he was, how good he did.

153
00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 2: I always tried to get him here every single year,

154
00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:33,360
Speaker 2: but Raheem's been one of the best. And uh, he's

155
00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:35,520
Speaker 2: going to hell of an organization, a good situation with

156
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: good people, and really happy for Atlanta that they got him,

157
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 2: and more than happy for Raheem.

158
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 3: How's that happened with glee Fery. We don't think we

159
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:44,839
Speaker 3: have a chance to ask you about that. When you

160
00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,440
Speaker 3: put him on I r if he thought at first

161
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:47,480
Speaker 3: he might be able to come back.

162
00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were trying to and there's always a risk

163
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 2: with it, but you got to weigh in those percentages

164
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:53,279
Speaker 2: and stuff, and just we tried to give him as

165
00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:55,080
Speaker 2: long to wait as we could before we went through

166
00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,479
Speaker 2: and got a surgery for him. We were thinking of it,

167
00:06:57,480 --> 00:07:00,200
Speaker 2: but he wanted to wait at first because everybody it's

168
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,039
Speaker 2: a chance to can can we win this game? And

169
00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:04,600
Speaker 2: him have a chance to be ready in two weeks

170
00:07:04,600 --> 00:07:07,360
Speaker 2: if that happens. But the when we just looked into

171
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 2: it and all the scenarios, it wasn't the best thing

172
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: for him and it would have been too much risk,

173
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:14,520
Speaker 2: and it really wasn't worth that risk, so we had

174
00:07:14,520 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 2: to go through the surgery.

175
00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 1: He says his contributions and was he missed in.

176
00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:19,200
Speaker 2: The playoff game.

177
00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:20,280
Speaker 1: Definitely.

178
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 2: He's been awesome this year. I think the way he

179
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,119
Speaker 2: plays the run, the way he runs to the ball.

180
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:28,720
Speaker 2: He has been a very good ad for us on

181
00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 2: defense and we really appreciate him while she was still

182
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: here with us, but I mean, he's still here with us.

183
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: I was still what she was playing with us, and

184
00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: I know he does too. But the guys love Klee

185
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: and as a person. But he's been really good for

186
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:47,680
Speaker 2: us this year. I'll tell him that on Tomorrow night,

187
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: but it won't be anything magical, won't be anything. I mean,

188
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,960
Speaker 2: our guys are ready for the moment. We'll say a

189
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 2: few things tomorrow night, which is always extremely overrated, and

190
00:07:58,000 --> 00:07:59,880
Speaker 2: we'll get to bed and we'll get up.

191
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:01,400
Speaker 1: Where do you go?

192
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 3: Al?

193
00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 1: I got thanks
