1
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,720
Speaker 1: What's up, everybody, and welcome to another edition of the

2
00:00:10,760 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: Falcons Final Whistle Podcast. I'm Scott Bayer and I'm here

3
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:18,040
Speaker 1: with Ashton Edmonds and Tory mclaney. I am not at

4
00:00:18,079 --> 00:00:20,720
Speaker 1: Mercedes Bend Stadium where Ashton and Tory are. I'm on.

5
00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:23,480
Speaker 1: We'll call it short term I R and we'll save

6
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:26,759
Speaker 1: the story for another day. But nonetheless, after what week Hiatus,

7
00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:29,120
Speaker 1: the Falcons Final Whistle was back, and there's no better

8
00:00:29,160 --> 00:00:32,760
Speaker 1: time to be back, considering the home team won a

9
00:00:32,880 --> 00:00:37,199
Speaker 1: dramatic twenty three to twenty results against the Cleveland Browns

10
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:41,239
Speaker 1: who came into Mercedes came into Mercedes ben Stadium and

11
00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:44,560
Speaker 1: left with a loss. So we're going to break down

12
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 1: what was kind of a fun game to watch, definitely

13
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,279
Speaker 1: a dramatic game that once again came down to the end.

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 1: So we're gonna break this thing down. We're gonna go

15
00:00:53,920 --> 00:00:56,480
Speaker 1: over what the heck is going on with every single

16
00:00:56,480 --> 00:00:58,560
Speaker 1: one of these games ending in the fourth quarter. We're

17
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,680
Speaker 1: gonna talk about the the Browns run game and the

18
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,280
Speaker 1: performance of the Falcons running game, especially with their young runners.

19
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,160
Speaker 1: We're going to talk about the Falcons defense which came

20
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:10,280
Speaker 1: through not only in the clutch in the fourth quarter,

21
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 1: but at several points during this game, and of course

22
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,120
Speaker 1: the Falcons getting their first win at home and going

23
00:01:16,120 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: through the first four games at two and two. But

24
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,080
Speaker 1: before we break this thing down in specifics, Tory, let's

25
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:26,319
Speaker 1: get your overall impressions of this victory here on Sunday

26
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 1: against Cleveland. Yeah. I thought this win was really needed

27
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:34,560
Speaker 1: for not just of course record wise getting back to

28
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,360
Speaker 1: five hundred, but four morale too. I mean, you think

29
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 1: about where this team has been over the course to

30
00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,200
Speaker 1: the first four weeks of the season, and we really

31
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,119
Speaker 1: have seen them be in every single game. They're in

32
00:01:46,240 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: all of these games, and what we've seen over the

33
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:51,200
Speaker 1: course of the last two weeks is then finishing these

34
00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: games out and actually getting to win. It's funny when

35
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,000
Speaker 1: you think about it, and I don't want to look

36
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 1: back too far, but the Falcons are how many plays

37
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,000
Speaker 1: away I would say less than five plays away from

38
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:07,240
Speaker 1: being four and oh right now they're playing. They're playing

39
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: very well. They look very different than what we have

40
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 1: seen this Falconis team look like in years past. I

41
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: think that's good, especially offensively. But just my overall takeaway

42
00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:20,640
Speaker 1: from this game is it kind of goes back to

43
00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:22,799
Speaker 1: what Arthur Smith was saying. It was like it was

44
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:25,239
Speaker 1: no secret that both teams wanted to run the ball,

45
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 1: and essentially the most physical team was gonna win on

46
00:02:28,240 --> 00:02:30,519
Speaker 1: Sunday and the team that ran the ball the best

47
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 1: was gonna win on Sunday. And that's exactly I think

48
00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 1: what we saw transpire over the course of these four quarters. Ashton, like,

49
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,160
Speaker 1: what were your biggest takeaways after watching this one live? Yeah,

50
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 1: I thought the defense did a really good job late

51
00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:47,959
Speaker 1: in a stretch down in the red zone. You could see,

52
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: like Tory said, you could see the chemistry in a

53
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 1: row amongst the defensive group. I think everybody's on one

54
00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: accord and you see players like Michael Walker stepping up,

55
00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 1: you see players like Richie Grant stepping up, and that

56
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: everybody on defense just buys in. And I feel like,

57
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:05,240
Speaker 1: you know that was kind of hurting them earlier in

58
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,840
Speaker 1: the season, is that they didn't finish at all, like

59
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,119
Speaker 1: the defense would kind of stumble in the fourth quarter,

60
00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 1: or the offense was stumble in the red zone. But

61
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 1: I see, you know, like earlier in the Browns game,

62
00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 1: when the Browns drove it, I don't know how many

63
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 1: yards but when they drove it all the way down

64
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,560
Speaker 1: the field, we saw that the Falcons defense closed them

65
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:25,120
Speaker 1: out when they actually forced them to go for and out,

66
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:27,760
Speaker 1: and I think the Browns were at like the two

67
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: yard line, So I think, you know, we're seeing the

68
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: defense step up. And I kind of talked about that

69
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,960
Speaker 1: in one of my articles this week, is that you know,

70
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:38,520
Speaker 1: they wanted to carry that momentum moving forward, and you

71
00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:41,600
Speaker 1: know the sentiment that DNPS preached a training camp. I

72
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,360
Speaker 1: think it's truly starting to show any games if we

73
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: go back to what to what Grady Jared said in

74
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 1: his press conference after the Falcons beat the Seattle Seahawks.

75
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,840
Speaker 1: He mentioned two words that I think applied to that

76
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:56,800
Speaker 1: game and definitely apply to this game as well. Number

77
00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 1: one is out last. Number two is overcome. Because this

78
00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:03,760
Speaker 1: team is not perfect, right and these games are coming

79
00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 1: down to the end, and they're making mistakes, but they

80
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,480
Speaker 1: are not critical, loss inducing mistakes like we saw from

81
00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:13,839
Speaker 1: those first two games. And I think that's the most

82
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: important thing. Outlast overcome. They're finding a way to do

83
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 1: those two things, and I think that's the quality and

84
00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,600
Speaker 1: the nature of a good team. I also think about

85
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,240
Speaker 1: when you look at who's better on paper, right, which

86
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: matters only from Wednesday to Friday, maybe until you actually

87
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: get down and play these games. But I really think

88
00:04:34,440 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: about two things that if you're let's say, not as

89
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:39,760
Speaker 1: good on paper as the other team, two things that

90
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: keep you win games are being able to control the

91
00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: clock or at least run the ball well and being

92
00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 1: opportunistic on defense. Right, We're gonna talk a lot about

93
00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,919
Speaker 1: the defense late in the fourth quarter. How about the

94
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 1: first drive, the very first drive where they went all

95
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: the way down to the falcons, the Rounds went all

96
00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 1: the way down to the falcons four and turn the

97
00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 1: ball over on downs. Yeah, that sequence goes different. We're

98
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: talking about a whole different thing here, and again we're

99
00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: gonna get to that. Tory has lots of thoughts on

100
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: this defense that she was treating out during this game.

101
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:13,840
Speaker 1: That m she also wrote about, which I think was

102
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 1: a really good story. But nonetheless, everybody, at least the

103
00:05:18,760 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: three of us, we're all like a little frazzled after

104
00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,560
Speaker 1: these games, right, because every single time I write this

105
00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:27,200
Speaker 1: instant replay where it needs to get published the second

106
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: the clock strikes zero zero zero, And every time I've

107
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:33,479
Speaker 1: been a full scale panic. I'm gonna have my dad's

108
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:37,120
Speaker 1: horseshoe hair loss, male patterned baldness thing like before the

109
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,480
Speaker 1: season's over. Every single one of these games is intense.

110
00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:43,000
Speaker 1: Man Like, why do you think that is? Guys, Like,

111
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,599
Speaker 1: why do you think it's that it's coming down to

112
00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:49,000
Speaker 1: the wire every single time? I mean, I think Arthur

113
00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:51,040
Speaker 1: Smith kind of says it best where he's like, this

114
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:54,920
Speaker 1: is the NFL and this is kind of what it's

115
00:05:55,000 --> 00:05:56,760
Speaker 1: kind of par for the course at this point. I

116
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:58,720
Speaker 1: mean you look at I mean not just looking at

117
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,120
Speaker 1: the Falcons, if you look at the league overall. Over

118
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,560
Speaker 1: the course of the first four weeks of the season,

119
00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: we have seen so many games come down to the wire,

120
00:06:07,680 --> 00:06:10,880
Speaker 1: so many games where there is a quote unquote upset.

121
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 1: I mean this is not just Falcons, I guess storyline.

122
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,279
Speaker 1: This is a storyline across the league, and I think

123
00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: it makes the league so much more fun to watch

124
00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:24,239
Speaker 1: when you do have games like this that are coming

125
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: down to the wire. I think that's professional football at

126
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: its best. And for the Falcons, it really is very interesting.

127
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: And I go back to my first point that I made.

128
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:39,479
Speaker 1: It's like seeing progress in finishing out these games and Scott.

129
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:42,960
Speaker 1: I know you wrote postgame about how every game we

130
00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 1: have seen come down to final plays in the fourth quarter,

131
00:06:46,320 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: and for the Falcons to actively go in the last

132
00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,679
Speaker 1: two weeks and be able to pull those games out,

133
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: and it's really important, I think for what this team

134
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:00,799
Speaker 1: does moving forward, because being at five hundred right now

135
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,520
Speaker 1: is so I think it's really really good for this

136
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: team at this point in the season. Yeah, definitely, And

137
00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:10,800
Speaker 1: given that I spent time writing that story, I have

138
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: the benefit of having done some research. But I think

139
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: what we've seen early on speaks to the Falcons improvement, right,

140
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:21,120
Speaker 1: because last year so much was made about how they

141
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: did in one score games. They were seven and two, right,

142
00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 1: they finished seven to ten. So the other eight games,

143
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:31,040
Speaker 1: almost half of the season was not a one score game,

144
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:35,160
Speaker 1: and they were losses by an average of dot dot

145
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: dot twenty one points. So they were getting blown out

146
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:43,679
Speaker 1: a lot, right. I think because of all the things

147
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:45,320
Speaker 1: that we've mentioned, all the things that we're going to

148
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:48,880
Speaker 1: talk about, is that the Falcons are more competitive and

149
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,040
Speaker 1: I think they're going to be in more of these games.

150
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: And it's funny because when you look over the schedule

151
00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,880
Speaker 1: in April and nobody ever should write wus er l's

152
00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:58,440
Speaker 1: next to each game. But you look at it and

153
00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:01,320
Speaker 1: you think, oh, that could be a really difficult stretch,

154
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:03,240
Speaker 1: or that could be an easy stretch. And now you

155
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:05,320
Speaker 1: go back and you look through and you think, Okay,

156
00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 1: the Falcons are more competitive. There's going to be a

157
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:11,800
Speaker 1: lot of these fourth quarter finishes. So how are ye do? Yeah? Yeah, well,

158
00:08:11,800 --> 00:08:14,880
Speaker 1: I think, like it's really interesting because I remember I

159
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 1: can't remember Scott if you remember this, but you and

160
00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,720
Speaker 1: I both like did like the schedule release analysis and

161
00:08:21,760 --> 00:08:24,640
Speaker 1: it was like, what's the hardest stretch? And I'm pretty

162
00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,280
Speaker 1: sure I said the first four games of this season

163
00:08:28,400 --> 00:08:31,120
Speaker 1: was the hardest stretch of any stretch over the course

164
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: of this twenty twenty two season. And now you look

165
00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 1: at it and the Falcons are two and two and

166
00:08:35,960 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 1: are playing They're in these games. There are a few

167
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: plays away from this being a completely different record, And

168
00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,600
Speaker 1: I don't think I would have said that back when

169
00:08:46,640 --> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: the schedule's release. I know I didn't say that back

170
00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:52,320
Speaker 1: when the schedule was released. So this team really is

171
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: I mean, Arthur Smith said it all the time in

172
00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,920
Speaker 1: training camp and even as the season got started, like

173
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,560
Speaker 1: we're out to prove something. This team a chip on

174
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: its shoulder. I think we're actively seeing that kind of

175
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:06,120
Speaker 1: come to fruition over the course of the first four

176
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:10,120
Speaker 1: weeks of the season. Yeah, go ahead, Now I would

177
00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,400
Speaker 1: just say, yeah, I think I'm just the ecolatory said.

178
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:14,439
Speaker 1: A lot of the players are saying like they're coming

179
00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:17,000
Speaker 1: in with a chip chip on their shoulder. Caleb Huntley,

180
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:18,640
Speaker 1: he said on the first play, he came in with

181
00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:20,520
Speaker 1: a chip on the shoulder to help the Falcons win.

182
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:23,199
Speaker 1: And um, you know, I think everybody's just buying in.

183
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:26,400
Speaker 1: You know, Chris Lynston mentioned that everybody in the huddle

184
00:09:26,400 --> 00:09:28,319
Speaker 1: would just have faith in each other, and you know

185
00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: that they just wanted to continue that momentum of driving

186
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:34,839
Speaker 1: the ball downfield. And you know, I think we see

187
00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:37,680
Speaker 1: this team truly coming together. We see this team finishing,

188
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: We see this team now playing complete games, and I think,

189
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,600
Speaker 1: you know that's going to carry forward, you know, later

190
00:09:44,640 --> 00:09:48,160
Speaker 1: in the season. When I look at it. This upcoming

191
00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:51,920
Speaker 1: stretch is at Tampa home against San Francisco at Cincinnati.

192
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:59,200
Speaker 1: That's two NFC title contenders and one playoff team. I

193
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:02,000
Speaker 1: think I'm not going to write them out of any

194
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: one of those games. Which I think says a lot

195
00:10:05,679 --> 00:10:07,840
Speaker 1: right there, and it's just because of what we've seen

196
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: out of Garoppolo and out of the Bengals offensive line,

197
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,959
Speaker 1: and out of the Falcons, I'm sorry, out of the

198
00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:16,679
Speaker 1: Bucks sometimes sputtering defense or offense. Now, we could get

199
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:18,480
Speaker 1: to that stretch and they could have gone on and

200
00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:20,440
Speaker 1: three and they could have lost the game by fifteen points.

201
00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 1: But you cannot automatically write them out of these games.

202
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:25,160
Speaker 1: And I think that because of these things that we're

203
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,480
Speaker 1: talking about, because of the outlast and they overcome. Because

204
00:10:28,520 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: of what we're going to get into next here, Ashton

205
00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,800
Speaker 1: is this run game. Right you look at the beginning

206
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:38,920
Speaker 1: of the game and the time of possession was lopsided

207
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 1: towards but they found a way to run the ball. Well,

208
00:10:44,400 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: what did you kind of learn listening to tape of

209
00:10:48,800 --> 00:10:51,480
Speaker 1: Caleb Huntley and Chris Lindstrom and some of these other

210
00:10:51,520 --> 00:10:55,079
Speaker 1: guys talk about about how that run game helped kind

211
00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:59,120
Speaker 1: of reignite that this offensive efficiency that was lost throughout

212
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: the middle of this game. For sure. Yeah, Like I said,

213
00:11:02,360 --> 00:11:05,360
Speaker 1: Chris Windstrom, he mentioned that everybody in the huddle would

214
00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,000
Speaker 1: just have belief in each other. They had faith in

215
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,480
Speaker 1: each other and over the last two games, you know,

216
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,480
Speaker 1: they ran for three hundred and eighty one yards on

217
00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: sixty six carries. That's been an X factor in helping

218
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,600
Speaker 1: the Falcons win. I feel like over these last two games,

219
00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:21,240
Speaker 1: and I think once the offense saw that the run

220
00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,240
Speaker 1: game was very effective against the Browns, you know, they

221
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:26,160
Speaker 1: just kept going, They just kept calling the plays. And

222
00:11:26,920 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: you know, Caleb Huntley he had that belief in himself

223
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 1: going into the game. You know, his name was called,

224
00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,959
Speaker 1: he was elevated on Saturday, and you know he was

225
00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:38,720
Speaker 1: just ready for the moment. And you know, once he

226
00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:42,120
Speaker 1: got in in the third quarter, man, we saw that

227
00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,360
Speaker 1: impact that he made on the Falcons offense. It's interesting

228
00:11:46,400 --> 00:11:49,960
Speaker 1: because after the game, Arthur Smith was talking about the

229
00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,480
Speaker 1: performance of Caleb Huntley and the spark that he provided,

230
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:57,040
Speaker 1: and I thought it was really interesting how Arthur Smith

231
00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 1: was talking about Michael Petrie, who is the Falcon's running

232
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,600
Speaker 1: backs coach, and he made the comment he was like, yeah,

233
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,160
Speaker 1: we got into the third quarter and Michael Petrie was like,

234
00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,600
Speaker 1: give him a couple carries. That couple carries turned into

235
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:14,880
Speaker 1: a significant drive that I thought was the drive of

236
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:18,120
Speaker 1: the entire game, Like I think when I think back

237
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: to this game and a couple weeks from now, I'm

238
00:12:20,960 --> 00:12:24,440
Speaker 1: going to be looking at that drive because I was very,

239
00:12:24,679 --> 00:12:27,719
Speaker 1: very impressed by what we saw from Caleb Huntley, and

240
00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:30,480
Speaker 1: not just Caleb Huntley, but you talk about the run

241
00:12:30,520 --> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: game overall. And I asked Arthur Smith after the game,

242
00:12:33,400 --> 00:12:35,040
Speaker 1: you know, it was funny because he said, you know,

243
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:38,320
Speaker 1: we knew coming into this that this was going to

244
00:12:38,400 --> 00:12:40,560
Speaker 1: be a big boy fight, like talking about it the

245
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and whoever was gonna be the most physical,

246
00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:45,800
Speaker 1: whoever was going to run the ball the best was

247
00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:47,480
Speaker 1: going to come out and win this game. And that

248
00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: held true. But something that he said, which I thought

249
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:55,319
Speaker 1: was really I don't know, I really stuck on it

250
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,880
Speaker 1: where he said, you're not creeping up on anybody. People

251
00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: know that we want to run the football. That's what

252
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: fires you up. It won't be that way every week.

253
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,960
Speaker 1: We know how competitive it is. But when you can

254
00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:07,360
Speaker 1: run the ball, when they know you're gonna run it,

255
00:13:07,640 --> 00:13:10,120
Speaker 1: that speaks volumes about our guys, and I think that's

256
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,400
Speaker 1: something that may go overlooked. It's like the Falcons are

257
00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:16,720
Speaker 1: they don't have any secrets right now, They're Arthur's Smith said,

258
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:18,400
Speaker 1: we want to run the ball. We want to be

259
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: the most physical team on the field. That's there's no

260
00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:24,679
Speaker 1: there's no secret in that. And the fact that they

261
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,120
Speaker 1: were still able to go out and do that and

262
00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 1: do it in a win. I think I think he's right.

263
00:13:30,080 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: I think it does speak volumes to where this team

264
00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:36,079
Speaker 1: is in terms of playing with a certain type of physicality. Yeah.

265
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,440
Speaker 1: I think that that physicality extends on both sides of

266
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,600
Speaker 1: the football because you look at what Nick Chubb is,

267
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:45,319
Speaker 1: He's one of the best running backs in the league.

268
00:13:45,559 --> 00:13:49,359
Speaker 1: He insured it himself and made his presence felt, especially

269
00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:54,440
Speaker 1: on a key fourth quarter touchdown drive that put the

270
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:59,960
Speaker 1: Browns ahead, I believe. But after that, Falcons defense generate,

271
00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:04,000
Speaker 1: it's a punt and then an interception. Falcons offense goes touchdown,

272
00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:08,520
Speaker 1: field goal, field goal to win the game. Key moments there, Tory.

273
00:14:08,880 --> 00:14:11,920
Speaker 1: But I know that defensively, there was more that impressed

274
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 1: you than just those final drives. Yeah, it wasn't just

275
00:14:15,520 --> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: the final drives. And I even tweeted this post game.

276
00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: It's like, I know everyone's going to be talking about,

277
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,360
Speaker 1: you know, the Grady Jarrett sack, followed by the Richie

278
00:14:22,400 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 1: Grant or not Richie Grant. Richie Grant was last week.

279
00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:28,000
Speaker 1: His interception was last week. This is the Alfred's interception.

280
00:14:28,360 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: But it really is that moment. I know everybody's gonna

281
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,640
Speaker 1: be talking about it, I know, but to me, the

282
00:14:35,760 --> 00:14:39,920
Speaker 1: reason why this defense is playing to the level of

283
00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: which it is is because of what they're doing in

284
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: the red zone. I know Ashton talked about it, Scott,

285
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,560
Speaker 1: you talked about it. They're coming up with stops in

286
00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:51,280
Speaker 1: the red zone and that is to me more as

287
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:54,800
Speaker 1: important as any fourth quarter single play that you have.

288
00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,920
Speaker 1: I was actually crunching the numbers a little bit, and

289
00:14:58,320 --> 00:15:00,480
Speaker 1: over the course of the last two games in the

290
00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,320
Speaker 1: Falcon's last two wins against the Browns and the Seahawks,

291
00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,720
Speaker 1: they held the Browns to one for three in the

292
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 1: red zone and then they held the Seahawks two for

293
00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:14,080
Speaker 1: five in the red zone. Like that's total three for

294
00:15:14,160 --> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: eight trips that opponents are going into the red zone

295
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 1: and not coming away with touchdowns. It doesn't at the

296
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: end of the day. And I know Dean Piece has

297
00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,160
Speaker 1: said this before and I'm paraphrasing by saying this, but

298
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,320
Speaker 1: he essentially it's like, I don't care how much they

299
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,680
Speaker 1: run it on this I don't care how many yards

300
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: they rack up on us. I care if we're keeping

301
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 1: them out of the end zone. And that is exactly

302
00:15:34,760 --> 00:15:37,240
Speaker 1: what we're seeing. Over the course of the last two weeks,

303
00:15:37,360 --> 00:15:41,360
Speaker 1: Seattle and Cleveland have had over eight hundred yards of

304
00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:44,880
Speaker 1: total offense, and yet they're not winning the game. So

305
00:15:44,960 --> 00:15:49,840
Speaker 1: that to me shows so much progress of this defense

306
00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: locking it down inside the twenty in it. I think

307
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:56,600
Speaker 1: that's honestly, one of the most impressive stats is, like,

308
00:15:56,720 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: you know, we talk about this whole like bend but

309
00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,360
Speaker 1: never break mental. I think that's kind of the marker

310
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:05,120
Speaker 1: of what this defense is in twenty twenty two. Right now,

311
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:10,720
Speaker 1: that's so many yards, that's so many yards in victory.

312
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,120
Speaker 1: That's that's that's an insane number to me. Um one.

313
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,000
Speaker 1: That again speaks to how you perform in the clutch,

314
00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,200
Speaker 1: whether it's on a specific drive or over the course

315
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,920
Speaker 1: of a game, is gonna put you in a position

316
00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:27,920
Speaker 1: to fight for a victory. That's what we're seeing time

317
00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:30,680
Speaker 1: and time again, the Falcons putting them in position to

318
00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:34,680
Speaker 1: fight for a victory. Sometimes it's an early surge, right

319
00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:38,280
Speaker 1: and then they lost control against the Saints They played

320
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:41,480
Speaker 1: pretty well in the fourth quarter against the Rams except

321
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:45,440
Speaker 1: with the interception, Right, They played important when it mattered

322
00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: most um. And you you talk about big moments, right,

323
00:16:49,560 --> 00:16:53,400
Speaker 1: how about the biggest, most recognizable player on this Falcons defense.

324
00:16:53,400 --> 00:16:58,080
Speaker 1: Grady Jarrett gets called for an off sides I know earlier,

325
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:03,000
Speaker 1: and then he doesn't often no, and then comes back

326
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 1: with a huge sack. It was a penalty then a

327
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:12,520
Speaker 1: sack that put Jacoby Priss, Jacoby Priss Brisette in position

328
00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: to have to force the ball downfield, exactly what Geno

329
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,400
Speaker 1: Smith had to do with the week before, big time

330
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 1: players coming up in big time moments. That So that's

331
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,520
Speaker 1: what you need from your leader, and when your leader

332
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,320
Speaker 1: does it, it inspires everybody else to do it too.

333
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:29,520
Speaker 1: I think all those things are really strong. And we

334
00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:33,840
Speaker 1: used to do these uh progress reports, right because back

335
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:35,920
Speaker 1: when there was a sixteen game season, like two years ago,

336
00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:39,320
Speaker 1: we'd be at the quarter pole right now and we're

337
00:17:39,440 --> 00:17:42,640
Speaker 1: essentially their percentage wise with an extra game. But after

338
00:17:42,720 --> 00:17:45,879
Speaker 1: four games, Falcons are sitting here at two and two. Look,

339
00:17:46,080 --> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: they could, as Tory mentioned, there are a couple of

340
00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,119
Speaker 1: plays away from being four and all. They could be

341
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:52,959
Speaker 1: a couple of plays away from being all four if

342
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 1: we want, they're both ways to go with it, right,

343
00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: But you're sitting here at two and two, and I

344
00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:01,320
Speaker 1: don't know if you guys agree with me or not,

345
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,359
Speaker 1: but I feel like every game is on the table now,

346
00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,520
Speaker 1: even going to Tampa. It's not gonna be easy, but

347
00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,760
Speaker 1: you never know, and we never have that environment. Like,

348
00:18:10,200 --> 00:18:12,760
Speaker 1: what have you learned about this Falcons team over the

349
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: course of the first four games and how can it

350
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:20,640
Speaker 1: be applied to what comes next? Yeah? Yeah, I would

351
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:23,600
Speaker 1: say I think from what I've noticed, the Falcons team

352
00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,960
Speaker 1: is resilient. You know, they don't give up, like we

353
00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:27,679
Speaker 1: saw against the Rams. I was on the edge of

354
00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:31,320
Speaker 1: my seat against when they played the Rams because they literally,

355
00:18:31,480 --> 00:18:34,440
Speaker 1: I think they were down like twenty eight to three

356
00:18:34,480 --> 00:18:37,199
Speaker 1: and they came back, you know, scored twenty seven points

357
00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: in like a quarter and a half. And I think

358
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: that's been the biggest word for me, you know, regarding

359
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:47,040
Speaker 1: this Falcons team, is that they've been resilient through these

360
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: first four games and that they don't give up until

361
00:18:49,480 --> 00:18:52,159
Speaker 1: the clock says zero zero zero. They played all the

362
00:18:52,200 --> 00:18:54,800
Speaker 1: way through and um, you know, Michael Walker preached on

363
00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:59,119
Speaker 1: that Rashaun Evans, the Alfred Chris, like every player on

364
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:02,560
Speaker 1: the team knows that, you know, everybody on the Falcons

365
00:19:02,640 --> 00:19:05,200
Speaker 1: roster does not give up. Everybody on the Falcons roster

366
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,119
Speaker 1: kind of plays with the chip on our should and

367
00:19:07,480 --> 00:19:11,440
Speaker 1: are out to prove that, you know, they're a great team,

368
00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 1: and we see that through the first four games. So

369
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:18,680
Speaker 1: I was talking to Lorenzo Carter in the locker room

370
00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: and it was he gave me the single best quote

371
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:24,320
Speaker 1: that I feel like I've gotten out of anybody over

372
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,520
Speaker 1: the course of the first four games. And I'm gonna

373
00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:30,359
Speaker 1: read it, but I preface it by saying that I

374
00:19:30,400 --> 00:19:34,720
Speaker 1: feel like it's a quote that almost verbate them word

375
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:39,679
Speaker 1: for word, represents how this Atlanta Falcons team feels about

376
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:42,760
Speaker 1: itself right now, four games into the season. I'm going

377
00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:47,240
Speaker 1: to read it. It said, we got some dogs. First off,

378
00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:50,280
Speaker 1: we're deep. It's a team. First of all. We don't

379
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:53,080
Speaker 1: have big superstars or gods who everybody is looking at.

380
00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,480
Speaker 1: But when it comes down to it, everybody is going

381
00:19:55,560 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: to fight. And that's what I love, and that to me,

382
00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,600
Speaker 1: If someone wants to like put that on a graphic

383
00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: or whatever, like and hang it up somewhere like that

384
00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:07,800
Speaker 1: to me is what this twenty twenty two Falcons team

385
00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,359
Speaker 1: is and how they view themselves. That it's like even though, yeah,

386
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: you have Kyle Hits, and you have Drake London, who

387
00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:17,960
Speaker 1: I know a lot of people talk about, but and

388
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: now Cordarrel Patterson a lot of people talking about him,

389
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,400
Speaker 1: But you think about some of the big quote unquote

390
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:27,120
Speaker 1: superstars of the league, like, that's not something that the

391
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,160
Speaker 1: Falcons currently have right now, that it is a team

392
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,359
Speaker 1: that is pieced together with guys on one year deals

393
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:36,720
Speaker 1: and a lot of young talent that's kind of just raw.

394
00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 1: Like we see Arnold Ebiketty go out there and I

395
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,240
Speaker 1: think he had a great game, a game that went overlooked.

396
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:46,720
Speaker 1: But you think about some of these players and it's

397
00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:48,879
Speaker 1: like they're trying to make a name for themselves. So

398
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 1: I loved that quote from Lorenzo Carter because it's like,

399
00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:55,440
Speaker 1: this is how this team feels about itself. And I

400
00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 1: think you have seen that over the course of the

401
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: first four games. Sitting at five hundred, yeah, and I

402
00:21:03,760 --> 00:21:06,480
Speaker 1: think that they have a chance to continue to climb

403
00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:11,359
Speaker 1: and get better throughout this season despite all of the

404
00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,199
Speaker 1: situations that they have. They have a ton of I

405
00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:14,880
Speaker 1: won't get too into detail, but they have a ton

406
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,359
Speaker 1: of dead gaps, dead salary cap space that they can

407
00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:20,119
Speaker 1: be spending on talent, but instead they have a roster construction,

408
00:21:20,119 --> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: as Tory outlined. But they're still finding ways to be competitive.

409
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 1: I think that speaks a lot to coaching. I think

410
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: that speaks a lot to team culture, and I think

411
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,840
Speaker 1: it speaks a lot to how they're going about their business. Again,

412
00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 1: They're running well, They're being opportunistic, they're staying in the fight.

413
00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:38,760
Speaker 1: You know, Arthur Smith said it so many times last year.

414
00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,880
Speaker 1: We keep swinging. That's not a lie. They keep swinging.

415
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,440
Speaker 1: And I think that that's a positive, and that's that's

416
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:49,120
Speaker 1: a trait that I believe will extend to any opponent

417
00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 1: that they have this season, even if they're overmatched, and

418
00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,000
Speaker 1: they're going to be overmatched at times. Period will stop.

419
00:21:55,280 --> 00:21:57,840
Speaker 1: And I also want to get in here that while

420
00:21:57,880 --> 00:22:01,920
Speaker 1: Marcus Mariota's quarterback play has been quality at times, there

421
00:22:01,920 --> 00:22:04,679
Speaker 1: are still too many mistakes here that are that are

422
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,719
Speaker 1: lead at some point. This is a quarterback league. At

423
00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:09,360
Speaker 1: some point the quarterback is gonna have to go win

424
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:12,959
Speaker 1: you a game. But ninety seconds left and fifty seventy

425
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:15,040
Speaker 1: yards to go, and that's gonna have to be a

426
00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:17,639
Speaker 1: new way that they find a way to win. That

427
00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 1: will have to be an element of what they do

428
00:22:20,200 --> 00:22:23,320
Speaker 1: if they're going to reach their goals, which are loftier

429
00:22:23,359 --> 00:22:26,960
Speaker 1: than everybody else's, as it should be. Um, but I

430
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:32,480
Speaker 1: tell you what, the season is fun, right, Yeah, it's fun.

431
00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:34,359
Speaker 1: I was in a presser box, like, I was in

432
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,560
Speaker 1: a press box, literally on the edge of my seat

433
00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:39,240
Speaker 1: next to Tori um a man that she had like

434
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:41,119
Speaker 1: her hands over her head. I was like, are you okay?

435
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:44,840
Speaker 1: But it's a very exciting season and I think, um,

436
00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,160
Speaker 1: the fans are loving it. We saw it today. Fans

437
00:22:47,160 --> 00:22:49,520
Speaker 1: are loving it. So I will I will say this too,

438
00:22:49,600 --> 00:22:51,399
Speaker 1: And I mean I've covered this team for this is

439
00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,439
Speaker 1: my third season covering the Falcons, and I will say this,

440
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:59,040
Speaker 1: even in the woes and even in the moments that

441
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:03,840
Speaker 1: does that it is kind of nerve wracking. This offense

442
00:23:04,280 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: is playing in a way that is more balanced, more explosive,

443
00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:11,679
Speaker 1: more fun for me to watch than I think I

444
00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:15,480
Speaker 1: have seen an offense perform since I've been covering this team.

445
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:17,920
Speaker 1: And that I feel like that's saying a lot. Yeah,

446
00:23:18,040 --> 00:23:21,440
Speaker 1: and I think that there's a lot this team is entertaining.

447
00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:23,399
Speaker 1: It keeps you on the edge of your seat, and

448
00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,200
Speaker 1: I hope that the fan base goes along for the ride.

449
00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:28,720
Speaker 1: I was again, I'm not at the stadium, so I

450
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:33,000
Speaker 1: was reading YouTube comments while Arthur Smith's press conference was

451
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:36,600
Speaker 1: going on, and so many people said last year, so

452
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: many times it felt like a wasted Sunday. Right, every

453
00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:42,840
Speaker 1: game has people on the edge of their seats. I

454
00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 1: think that's important. Another thing that's important is that we

455
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: have a slight change and where these podcasts are going.

456
00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:52,280
Speaker 1: If you are a faithful Falcon's Final Whistle subscriber, that's

457
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:56,440
