Like, let's 0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:17.160 not be light on that five time All pro only 0:01:17.200 --> 0:01:19.400 got one pro bo, which is not adding up like 0:01:19.440 --> 0:01:23.920 the talent in the way that Tomorrow Davis's name holds. 0:01:23.600 --> 0:01:26.560 In the NFL. Is still only one pro bo so far, 0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.039 maybe two this maybe two this year. But like, for 0:01:29.160 --> 0:01:30.240 sure he should be. 0:01:30.200 --> 0:01:32.880 A multiple, multiple time pro bowler. He's a multiple multiple 0:01:32.880 --> 0:01:36.560 All Pro. Double D appreciates you for tapping in my God, my. 0:01:36.600 --> 0:01:40.800 God, actually having me all man then is all mine? Man. 0:01:40.880 --> 0:01:42.840 Let's let's just let's talk about this. 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:45.280 You and you keep up to date, like if anybody 0:01:45.319 --> 0:01:46.759 keeps up to date with the Saints and what's going 0:01:46.760 --> 0:01:49.600 on in the NFL, it's you like a student of 0:01:49.640 --> 0:01:51.720 the game, a master of a lot. 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.080 You know, when we talk about current Evince, you're usually 0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:57.480 up to par. Since you've heard you've heard the news. 0:01:57.960 --> 0:02:00.520 We've had some we've had some coaches go, how you 0:02:00.560 --> 0:02:03.280 feeling like it's all off of the side, But a 0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:05.040 couple of them go, I mean. 0:02:04.960 --> 0:02:08.080 It's it's it's it's the business. It's the business of 0:02:08.320 --> 0:02:14.160 the game. You know, it's tough because it's a reminder 0:02:14.400 --> 0:02:17.919 that we dropped the ball as a whole, Like what 0:02:18.000 --> 0:02:21.279 you want to happen is to have success, and everybody's 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:26.440 getting promoted, which we've seen have success. Other guys go 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:31.200 get big time jobs and now they win and playoff games. 0:02:33.280 --> 0:02:34.720 That's what you want to be. You want to be 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:35.519 in a sweet spot. 0:02:35.560 --> 0:02:41.200 Guys getting contracts, guys uh, you know, going getting resigned, 0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:45.360 Guys going to other teams getting getting paid, which has 0:02:45.400 --> 0:02:48.639 been our experience in the past. But when you have 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:52.040 an off season like this because of multiple years not 0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:56.800 getting it done, and now there's man, it's mandatory that 0:02:56.880 --> 0:02:59.639 something has to change, and who. 0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:00.120 Is that going to be. 0:03:00.720 --> 0:03:02.959 Man, it's gonna look different on the roster, from the 0:03:02.960 --> 0:03:05.359 player's side, it's gonna look different from the coaching side. 0:03:05.680 --> 0:03:07.680 And it's just a reminder that we dropped the ball 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.880 as a whole. I mean, at any point when you 0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:15.040 don't get it done, somebody's gonna be the one that 0:03:15.160 --> 0:03:17.399 has to follow on the sword to beat the scapegoat. 0:03:17.639 --> 0:03:23.000 And and and we're seeing that it's happening. Uh. I 0:03:23.000 --> 0:03:27.320 think this is the beginning of that attempt to make 0:03:27.360 --> 0:03:30.440 a change, or that attempt to something has to be done. 0:03:31.680 --> 0:03:35.520 And it's unfortunate, you know, like uh, you know, Pete 0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.640 Bob Cody, my guy. 0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:43.200 Joel Thomas went to the Giants John Fire, but just 0:03:43.280 --> 0:03:45.680 like just like lateral movement and I'm not even thinking 0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:46.480 it was like. 0:03:47.920 --> 0:03:51.760 Going to like let's let's keep that a b you know, 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:55.200 like when when the officer guys go, I mean I 0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:55.800 had I was like. 0:03:55.720 --> 0:04:00.640 What I said, what did Bob do? What Bobs? 0:04:00.760 --> 0:04:04.760 And I think it best friend the peak. It's like, 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:07.200 I guess they felt like he was gonna be a 0:04:07.240 --> 0:04:08.120 mold or something. 0:04:08.640 --> 0:04:11.600 Man if I got to get rid of Pa, gotta 0:04:11.600 --> 0:04:14.440 get rid of his man's Okay, Okay, that makes sense, 0:04:14.440 --> 0:04:16.480 all right, man, I'm sorry I had like that was 0:04:16.520 --> 0:04:18.720 just off my mind. First question I asked, but this 0:04:18.760 --> 0:04:20.400 week off, how are you living? 0:04:20.400 --> 0:04:23.240 Man? Like? What's your first week of off season? Off? 0:04:23.440 --> 0:04:24.240 Is it off season? 0:04:24.320 --> 0:04:24.400 Like? 0:04:24.480 --> 0:04:26.520 Is it the same every year? How do you process 0:04:26.600 --> 0:04:29.599 the end of a season in two off season? Because 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.680 that dynamic changes for you tremendously. For me, I just 0:04:32.720 --> 0:04:35.480 go back to the crib. You you're back in Nashville. 0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:38.800 Yeah, that's the crib for me. Now, I think every 0:04:38.839 --> 0:04:39.520 year is different. 0:04:40.680 --> 0:04:46.240 I traditionally keep the same framework, but it's a season 0:04:46.279 --> 0:04:49.000 by season thing just because of the emotional part. 0:04:49.120 --> 0:04:51.680 So as for me, like I'll keep training. 0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:55.240 I'll stay doing my recovery regiment all the way through 0:04:55.240 --> 0:04:58.760 the Super Bowl, like I trained specifically so my body 0:04:58.839 --> 0:05:01.360 is ready for this time of year. And so it's 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:05.760 like I'm like a I'm like a Ferrari just sitting 0:05:05.760 --> 0:05:09.039 in the garage right now, Like I'm meant to be 0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.279 on the road going fast right now, Like That's what 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:14.599 I'm trained for. And so it's disappointing when we're not 0:05:14.720 --> 0:05:17.799 doing it because my body feels fresh. It feels like 0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:19.599 like I can go and I'm throwing my kids up. 0:05:19.640 --> 0:05:21.960 It ain't like I'm in shutdown mode or tired mode. 0:05:22.080 --> 0:05:24.360 Like I'm out playing in the snow with my kids 0:05:24.400 --> 0:05:26.320 earlier in the day, like running around. 0:05:26.320 --> 0:05:27.919 My legs feel fresh, and. 0:05:27.960 --> 0:05:30.040 I'm like a snow outside. 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:32.640 Yeah, it's it got like seven eight inches. I heard 0:05:33.480 --> 0:05:34.560 That's why I'm hot. 0:05:35.880 --> 0:05:40.440 Hot seven eight bro. That's disgusting. I do not like that. 0:05:42.000 --> 0:05:44.440 And the horrible part is just the dry snow, so 0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:46.480 like you can't even make a snowball or a snowman, 0:05:47.160 --> 0:05:49.320 like you just pick it up and it just crumbles 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:49.880 in your hands. 0:05:49.880 --> 0:05:54.200 Hold. So I keep training all the way through, but 0:05:54.279 --> 0:05:55.279 I process different. 0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:58.680 So it just depends on like where I'm emotional and 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:02.000 I think, you know, this just finished my twelfth season, 0:06:02.520 --> 0:06:06.200 thirty just turned thirty five years old, have a comp 0:06:06.400 --> 0:06:10.719 a lot in the game, and now it's where where 0:06:10.720 --> 0:06:12.960 do I want to go? And so now it's man, 0:06:12.960 --> 0:06:16.560 I want to process. My goal is to do forty 0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:17.239 five more. 0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:18.840 Like that's a goal. 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.240 Yeah, well, you said you And you said that earlier 0:06:22.320 --> 0:06:24.320 this year for the first time, and I looked at 0:06:24.320 --> 0:06:25.880 you because we've talked about over the years. 0:06:25.920 --> 0:06:28.240 You're like, I don't know how many more left? And 0:06:28.240 --> 0:06:30.360 I was like, bro, what you mean you're not playing 0:06:30.400 --> 0:06:31.960 at such a high level. What are you talking about? 0:06:32.040 --> 0:06:35.119 No, Man, the tolld And I was like, oh, all right, 0:06:35.400 --> 0:06:37.280 and this year you hit me with the forty five more. 0:06:37.320 --> 0:06:41.359 I said, oh, I love to hear You're like, what 0:06:41.520 --> 0:06:42.200 brought you to that? 0:06:42.760 --> 0:06:46.160 There was a revelation, man, it was a revelation. 0:06:46.279 --> 0:06:49.400 Man. I've my favorite player in the NBA is Lebron 0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:53.240 of course, and I've tracked my whole life, I mean 0:06:53.320 --> 0:06:55.839 his whole career. I've tracked him. I can give you 0:06:55.839 --> 0:07:02.560 almost every statistic, every playoff game, Like, uh, but now 0:07:02.560 --> 0:07:04.919 I have a reason to track him. Like it was like, 0:07:05.080 --> 0:07:08.480 I want to play two years after Lebron finished, and 0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:10.720 I'm just so mesmerized by his. 0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:12.240 Longevity, his durability. 0:07:12.320 --> 0:07:15.640 He's still playing at a high level, though they team 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:18.200 not doing as good as good as my team. Okay, see, 0:07:18.240 --> 0:07:22.840 let's make sure we have clarity there. The Lakers beat 0:07:22.880 --> 0:07:27.680 us the other night. But I admire his longevity. His 0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.720 durability is his constant being at the top of his game. 0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:32.880 But last year he led the league in past break points. 0:07:32.880 --> 0:07:35.840 Who does that at thirty seven thirty eight years old? 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.400 And I'm like, man, if he running and jumping with 0:07:38.480 --> 0:07:40.520 these young boys is coming in the league, I don't 0:07:40.560 --> 0:07:44.320 have no excuse being I'm four years younger than him. 0:07:45.120 --> 0:07:48.680 And so I'm like, well, bron probably gonna play two 0:07:48.720 --> 0:07:50.720 more years. We know he want to play with Bronnie, 0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:52.400 And so if I say I want to be in 0:07:52.400 --> 0:07:54.920 a game two years after he's done, they give me 0:07:55.520 --> 0:07:58.800 four to five more years. And so I just just 0:07:58.800 --> 0:08:00.920 give me a rapid the chase. When I have a rabbit, 0:08:01.040 --> 0:08:02.960 it makes me, it makes me go. And so I 0:08:03.000 --> 0:08:05.120 got a goal in mind, and it's just rejuvenated. 0:08:06.760 --> 0:08:07.800 I was like I'm not gonna lie to you. 0:08:07.800 --> 0:08:09.800 I was been wondering because I said, what so you 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:12.800 not even changed somebody like like lateral in your position? 0:08:12.920 --> 0:08:15.160 You like, Nah, I see the greatest of all time 0:08:15.240 --> 0:08:19.200 Lebron So I'm gonna outplay. I'm gonna out play his longevity. 0:08:19.520 --> 0:08:21.880 That's crazy to think about. Forty five years gonna put 0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:24.520 you in like year sixteen, seventeen. 0:08:24.720 --> 0:08:26.720 I love that for you. I'm gonna watch you. I'm 0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:30.080 gonna watch you know year fifteen. 0:08:31.000 --> 0:08:32.280 Come on, bro, come on out. 0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:36.040 W I told you this revelation of mine I had 0:08:36.080 --> 0:08:38.679 two years ago over here to push you. Hey, I 0:08:38.679 --> 0:08:42.120 love you, my boy, God knows, God know you, my 0:08:42.200 --> 0:08:45.079 man's It's gonna take. It's gonna take Wifey to say 0:08:45.080 --> 0:08:46.920 a lot for me to come back after year fifteen. 0:08:46.960 --> 0:08:49.480 Because I love I love football. I'm willing to give 0:08:49.520 --> 0:08:51.720 it my all. Fifteen is gonna be the mental the 0:08:51.720 --> 0:08:54.320 mental hurdle that we'll talk about later. Let's just talk about, 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.480 you know, not even just the long jezy playing, but 0:08:56.520 --> 0:08:58.040 at the high level, you've been playing like you didn't 0:08:58.040 --> 0:09:00.199 even hit your first All Pro till you turn third. 0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:02.280 You was at the New Orleans Saints, you you know, 0:09:02.320 --> 0:09:04.760 you were from the Jets, where you know you would 0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:07.080 says a heavy market, you know, one of those those 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:09.640 marketing places that all you have to do is be 0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:13.520 semi quasi, you know, explosive, stand out on the field, 0:09:13.520 --> 0:09:15.480 and you're going to get your accolade immediately, you know, 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.440 to be I don't know, I still don't know how 0:09:18.440 --> 0:09:20.480 you went, why or how you went to the Browns 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:22.160 back to the Jets, but then you came to New 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.640 Orleans and you've played your best football. It just is 0:09:24.679 --> 0:09:27.400 what it is. Five All pros gives you direct access 0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:30.120 and it's hard to make All pro, especially in the Saints, 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.800 Like it's a hard market to excel it in terms of 0:09:32.800 --> 0:09:35.200 the eyes, in terms of the accolades, whatever comes, you 0:09:35.240 --> 0:09:35.800 have to earn it. 0:09:35.840 --> 0:09:38.080 And you've you've done all of that. Like I said, 0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:40.920 so five pro but like five all pros, how did 0:09:40.960 --> 0:09:43.680 you like, how did you reflect on reaching this milestone? 0:09:43.720 --> 0:09:45.520 Because there's I think there's only like four or five 0:09:45.559 --> 0:09:48.320 Saints players that ever reached five All pros. In general. 0:09:48.679 --> 0:09:52.520 I think it goes back to twenty sixteen me and 0:09:52.559 --> 0:09:56.040 a conversation, a conversation that I had with God. I 0:09:56.080 --> 0:09:59.040 was ready to retire in twenty sixteen, one year with 0:09:59.120 --> 0:10:02.319 the Browns. I feel like, you know, playing with the 0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:04.480 Browns when they was the Browns that I was on 0:10:05.000 --> 0:10:08.960 and to make anybody want to retire. But man, I 0:10:09.000 --> 0:10:10.920 was ready to throw it in. I didn't have I 0:10:10.960 --> 0:10:13.960 didn't have the mindset to change greatness no more. My 0:10:14.000 --> 0:10:17.079 body was hurting and I went into my PreK clause. 0:10:17.280 --> 0:10:20.320 Man I just said, God, I'm done, I'm finished. But 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:22.640 I knew he wasn't done with me yet. So it 0:10:22.720 --> 0:10:24.280 was like I was throwing in the tower. It's just like, 0:10:24.320 --> 0:10:26.160 if you don't want me to do more, you gonna 0:10:26.160 --> 0:10:27.880 have to do it. I was like, God, you got 0:10:27.920 --> 0:10:30.079 to rejuven in my mind, you gotta rejuven in my body. 0:10:30.080 --> 0:10:31.200 And I literally prayed that. 0:10:32.000 --> 0:10:34.000 It was like I heard an audible voice of God 0:10:34.240 --> 0:10:36.520 just say like, thank you for throwing in the towel. 0:10:36.640 --> 0:10:38.840 I got it from here, and don't forget that you 0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:41.120 threw in the town. That's why I tell that story 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:45.079 so often, because I can't. I have to give credit 0:10:45.440 --> 0:10:49.160 to what it's due. And slowly, but surely, man, I 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:51.920 just started training different and I found a way to 0:10:51.960 --> 0:10:54.319 be more efficient in my game. Now I've been always 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:57.320 been doing the numbers, go back to my second year, 0:10:58.800 --> 0:11:00.800 my early years with the Jet, I was always doing 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.800 one hundred tackles. I was always doing three to four sacks. 0:11:03.920 --> 0:11:06.200 I was doing the numbers, but my game was just sloppy. 0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:13.360 Plus I was with the Jets twenty seventeen. After that moment, 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:15.680 I come back, and not only do I got the production, 0:11:15.880 --> 0:11:19.560 I got the efficiency the match. So I'm not missing 0:11:19.559 --> 0:11:23.240 as many tackles, I'm not getting beat and coverage. You know, 0:11:23.280 --> 0:11:25.840 I'm making my plays in the backfield versus you know, 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:27.840 three or four yards down the line, down the field. 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:31.199 Just cleaning my game up a lot, And that was 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.800 probably statistically one of my best seasons. But the same time, 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.160 I was with the Jets and nobody saw it. Fast 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:38.040 forward twenty eighteen. I come to the Saints and we 0:11:38.080 --> 0:11:40.760 go to the conference championship game. I'm doing the same thing, 0:11:41.120 --> 0:11:44.480 but everybody sees it, and now I was welcome to 0:11:45.280 --> 0:11:48.000 is welcome to the NFL. Per se I kind of 0:11:48.040 --> 0:11:48.360 to me. 0:11:49.280 --> 0:11:52.400 Welcome to the NFL. Welcome to the NFL. Twenty seventeen. 0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:55.680 Yeah, because twenty seventeen was really like my rookie season 0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.600 because after that humbling moment there was a new. 0:11:58.480 --> 0:12:01.320 That was a new beast that was away and that 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:03.200 was produce. Yeah. 0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:08.360 Yeah, And so twenty seventeen twenty eighteen was kind of that, 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:10.680 you know, putting it on display. They might have thought 0:12:10.679 --> 0:12:12.520 twenty seventeen was a fluke, and I did it again 0:12:12.520 --> 0:12:15.120 in twenty eighteen, and then it happened in twenty nineteen. 0:12:15.160 --> 0:12:16.959 We didn't go as far as the team, but the 0:12:17.040 --> 0:12:18.839 production was still there, and I think that's when the 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:19.680 notarioty came. 0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:23.160 And since then it just hasn't been no drop off. 0:12:23.200 --> 0:12:25.120 I think they thought because it was thirty that there 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:27.280 was going to be drop off, but there wasn't. 0:12:27.360 --> 0:12:29.760 But I think it's because I'm running on something different 0:12:29.800 --> 0:12:30.800 and it's the Holy Spirit. 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:34.760 We're not going to just run through like that was 0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:37.120 a time where you know, Man of God, I come 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:38.680 to the house and now he got the Man of 0:12:38.720 --> 0:12:39.840 God headband on there. 0:12:39.960 --> 0:12:41.559 I said, that's how you know it's official when everybody 0:12:41.559 --> 0:12:44.600 in the house. Body. When did high Breed come come about? Man? 0:12:45.000 --> 0:12:49.160 High Breed probably came in my training in twenty nineteen, 0:12:49.240 --> 0:12:54.640 I believe. So twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, my goal was 0:12:54.720 --> 0:12:57.800 just to be the best linebackers in the league. But 0:12:58.160 --> 0:13:02.080 twenty nineteen, I believe it was just a lot of 0:13:02.120 --> 0:13:03.760 linebackers that was in that conversation. 0:13:03.880 --> 0:13:04.680 And so it was. 0:13:06.480 --> 0:13:09.840 Bobby Wagner, I think Fred was on the scene. Then 0:13:10.360 --> 0:13:16.080 between twenty you had guys like Shaq Leonard in that 0:13:16.200 --> 0:13:25.000 conversation of David Dead or White started jumping into conversation. 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:26.959 So it was a lot of people. And if you see, 0:13:26.960 --> 0:13:31.079 it's always this best linebacker conversation, who's the best linebacker? 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:36.319 And so for me, it became about differentiation and what 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:39.520 is What was differentiation for me was it's a lot 0:13:39.520 --> 0:13:43.439 of hybrid players in the league. And a hybrid is 0:13:43.520 --> 0:13:45.600 someone who can kind of be a tweiner. Right, you 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:47.840 have a guy who can be a D lineman, but 0:13:47.880 --> 0:13:49.640 he can be also outside linebacker. 0:13:49.640 --> 0:13:56.520 You have a safety slash nickel or nickel slash corner. 0:13:56.760 --> 0:13:57.040 You know. 0:13:59.080 --> 0:14:02.720 That Simmons guy that got drafted, Uh that was playing 0:14:02.760 --> 0:14:05.160 a Z I think he's a different team now, he. 0:14:05.040 --> 0:14:07.719 Was, Ah, yeah, he's he's never at the Giants now. 0:14:08.320 --> 0:14:12.840 Yeah yeah, And Uh with the high breed was like, 0:14:12.960 --> 0:14:14.640 I feel like I can go into a game and 0:14:14.640 --> 0:14:20.400 play one position and dominate on all three levels, Like 0:14:21.000 --> 0:14:22.640 I feel like they can put me in the game 0:14:22.680 --> 0:14:25.400 and safety and I'd be a great box safety. Like 0:14:25.480 --> 0:14:27.640 I know all the coverages. I know how to come 0:14:27.720 --> 0:14:30.440 up and fit. I can cover one on one on 0:14:30.560 --> 0:14:32.360 tight ends or running back that get put out at 0:14:32.440 --> 0:14:34.920 number two every now and then, if it's a slide, 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:36.000 I can I can handle that. 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:39.560 At the same time, I can go and play the 0:14:39.600 --> 0:14:40.200 defensive line. 0:14:40.200 --> 0:14:41.960 I feel like I can be on the edge all game, 0:14:42.960 --> 0:14:45.280 which they did for us one time we played the Rams. 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:46.800 I just had to sit out there on the edge 0:14:46.840 --> 0:14:48.560 and ain't gonna talk about that game. 0:14:48.720 --> 0:14:51.760 But I can hold it. It's just cut on the edge. 0:14:51.760 --> 0:14:53.400 Now we gotta hold that hold the edge. 0:14:53.640 --> 0:14:55.200 I got respect for all positions. 0:14:55.280 --> 0:14:56.800 I'm not trying to say that, but that's what I 0:14:56.800 --> 0:14:59.240 feel like when I'm saying Highbrey is like I can 0:14:59.280 --> 0:15:02.040 truly I'm not like a twer. I can play a 0:15:02.040 --> 0:15:05.240 line back. I can play defensive line, and I can play. 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:09.920 Not a high bred high breed like going. 0:15:09.800 --> 0:15:14.760 Built different, yes, sir, different, and like a transformer. I'm transformed. 0:15:14.800 --> 0:15:15.440 Whatever you need. 0:15:33.600 --> 0:15:35.520 But is there any game that this year that you 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:38.120 you saw as like the changing moving for our season? 0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.160 Like I'm clearly going i'mna say, you know, the Week 0:15:41.200 --> 0:15:44.200 three matchup versus the Packers, right, because at that time 0:15:44.840 --> 0:15:46.240 we talked about it. I was like, we could take 0:15:46.280 --> 0:15:48.800 advantage of Jordan Love like this is he's really a 0:15:48.880 --> 0:15:52.000 rookie and you know that to me, we were up 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:56.520 seventeen oh and Lambeau was silent. Could hear me snap fingers, 0:15:56.880 --> 0:15:59.400 you know, in the middle of the field to the sidelines, 0:15:59.520 --> 0:16:02.640 quiet as and then we end up losing eighteen to seventeen. 0:16:04.040 --> 0:16:07.040 Is there a game that you look back like, how 0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:07.560 do we lose? 0:16:08.280 --> 0:16:09.880 Like? How did we do this? 0:16:10.480 --> 0:16:12.720 That was a tough game because we were looking to 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:18.360 put it all together, and you just think about like momentum. 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:20.560 I'm a big basketball fan. I feel like this is 0:16:20.560 --> 0:16:22.760 one of the best sports where you can see momentum change. 0:16:23.160 --> 0:16:27.400 And man, the momentum in that game and the way 0:16:27.640 --> 0:16:29.720 it suck the air out of our season early on. 0:16:29.800 --> 0:16:33.080 It was like it took us a minute to grapple 0:16:33.120 --> 0:16:35.520 after that because we had just kind of been being 0:16:35.560 --> 0:16:37.760 played our best football yet. And then it looked like 0:16:37.800 --> 0:16:40.000 we had put it together for a half and we 0:16:40.000 --> 0:16:41.680 were ready to come out the second half, and then 0:16:41.720 --> 0:16:45.760 DC go down on the first drive. We started reeling 0:16:45.800 --> 0:16:47.560 as a defense, and they come back and they put 0:16:47.600 --> 0:16:51.200 some drives together. I mean, we had them shut down 0:16:51.240 --> 0:16:52.760 in the first half, and then all of a sudden 0:16:53.160 --> 0:16:57.920 they just get life. And man, you just you weren't 0:16:57.960 --> 0:17:00.840 expecting a game like that to realize that you gave 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:03.360 this game up when when you had it in the back, 0:17:04.240 --> 0:17:06.800 and you kind of not want to let one game 0:17:06.840 --> 0:17:10.239 turn into two games, you know. But like when I 0:17:10.280 --> 0:17:14.240 think about the momentum of that, I think about that, 0:17:14.240 --> 0:17:16.840 that kind of reminds me of like Colorado. 0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:20.280 Everybody followed Colorado football, but they had. 0:17:20.240 --> 0:17:22.399 Kind of had like an up and down season and 0:17:22.440 --> 0:17:25.320 then they played I think was Stanford. Was this Stanford 0:17:25.359 --> 0:17:27.040 that they blew out the first half and then they 0:17:27.080 --> 0:17:28.560 came all the way back and lock and gave that 0:17:28.640 --> 0:17:29.040 game up. 0:17:29.320 --> 0:17:31.040 Might have been I think with Stafford. 0:17:30.960 --> 0:17:33.200 But they started off like four to roh and then 0:17:33.240 --> 0:17:34.200 all of a sudden. 0:17:34.600 --> 0:17:38.520 They started hot. But then you know, they played. 0:17:38.560 --> 0:17:41.960 Uh usc before, but then they played. 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:44.360 Like come back and I think that was the Stanford game. 0:17:45.440 --> 0:17:47.440 So they won one more than they played Stanford. After 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:49.600 that game, they never recovered. It didn't seem like they 0:17:49.680 --> 0:17:51.719 recovered after that, and so I feel like that was 0:17:52.080 --> 0:17:55.479 kind of us in Green Bay. We got it in parts, 0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:58.560 but we never really got back to that stride until 0:17:58.640 --> 0:18:00.600 late in the season. I did like the way that 0:18:00.640 --> 0:18:03.000 we finished. If we could have found that earlier in 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:03.600 the year. 0:18:05.960 --> 0:18:07.760 I could have swore we found that when we when 0:18:07.800 --> 0:18:11.960 we trounced the Patriots. Now we beat him thirty five. 0:18:12.119 --> 0:18:13.680 I said, ah, I said, this is a Bill Belichick 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.880 led team like this, It don't matter, like you don't 0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:19.600 do this to Bill Belichick minus the players, because you know, 0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:21.280 they got Matt juwide on over there, they got the 0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:22.000 other air rusher. 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:25.400 Then you know, running back was running. When the game 0:18:25.440 --> 0:18:28.840 was alright, I was like, we thirty five zero the Patriots. 0:18:28.880 --> 0:18:29.679 That doesn't happen. 0:18:31.240 --> 0:18:33.040 And then but it was like, like we said, bro, 0:18:33.240 --> 0:18:36.040 like you know, the inconsistencies of it all, We really 0:18:36.080 --> 0:18:38.640 didn't catch that consistent. All right, this is what we're 0:18:38.640 --> 0:18:41.040 gonna do on offense, is going to do on defense. 0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:42.280 Until the end. And I was like, well, that's where 0:18:42.280 --> 0:18:44.040 you want to peak anyways, so all we need is 0:18:44.040 --> 0:18:46.760 a ticket. And then that didn't happen our way. 0:18:46.840 --> 0:18:48.679 But what you're you're a lot more even killed than 0:18:48.680 --> 0:18:50.920 I am, like, you know me, Bro, I'm amped up 0:18:51.160 --> 0:18:52.560 on on ten for. 0:18:52.560 --> 0:18:54.439 Everything, and he was like, yeah, so this is what 0:18:54.480 --> 0:18:55.440 we got to do during the week. 0:18:55.680 --> 0:18:57.960 And then on then on game day you on you 0:18:58.040 --> 0:19:01.000 were on like twelve because you become highbrid you know 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:01.400 what I'm saying. 0:19:01.440 --> 0:19:05.240 You go in that thing and I'm like, you wasn't 0:19:05.280 --> 0:19:07.160 acting like this Monday through Saturday. 0:19:09.640 --> 0:19:10.040 Now I did. 0:19:10.119 --> 0:19:13.240
