Man, 29 00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:37,120 Speaker 1: we just can't, as as I know you feel, just 30 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,280 Speaker 1: as passionate I do about the military, Man, we just can't. 31 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:41,319 Speaker 1: We can't think the guys enough for what they do 32 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:44,280 Speaker 1: and all the sacrifices they do, being away from their families, 33 00:01:45,160 --> 00:01:48,280 Speaker 1: and just just it's almost too much to even put 34 00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: into one show. We can spend a whole show talking 35 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: about how much we appreciate the military, but we're gonna 36 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 1: try to. We're gonna try to go into week nine, 37 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 1: talk about the chiefs, talk about what needs to be 38 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,600 Speaker 1: done here in the Kingdom, and also we're gonna show 39 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,480 Speaker 1: some salutes. We're gonna be showing some some different badges 40 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:07,160 Speaker 1: throughout throughout our podcast to show you how much we 41 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,839 Speaker 1: appreciate the military. I know you visited Afghanistan and saw 42 00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: the patch there. This is the fifth Engineer of Battalion 43 00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: right there, all right, Those are the sappers and engineers. 44 00:02:17,480 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: Their job is very dangerous. They blow up the stuff 45 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:24,399 Speaker 1: before they blow our guys up. And one of our 46 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,720 Speaker 1: great podcast followers on Defending the Kingdom, Colonel Chris McGowan, 47 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,079 Speaker 1: was Battalion commander of the fifth Engineer Battalion at one 48 00:02:32,160 --> 00:02:35,760 Speaker 1: spot and they do very dangerous business and they are 49 00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: on the call all the time. So there's a couple 50 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:41,520 Speaker 1: shout outs. We're gonna do these throughout this podcast, and 51 00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:43,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna focus on something interesting. You know what I 52 00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,800 Speaker 1: love at shop is when you say something that's really 53 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,080 Speaker 1: thought provoking. And I know people not only watch and 54 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 1: listen to Defending the Kingdom podcast, but they watch our 55 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: Chiefs Rewind show after every Chiefs game on the Chiefs 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 1: Facebook page also on the YouTube channel. But you said 57 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: something a couple of weeks ago, because we were talking 58 00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: about the Raiders game and the Raiders just loading up 59 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,519 Speaker 1: and kind of ambush from the Chiefs in that forty 60 00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: two to thirty game, and you said, it's the week 61 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:15,640 Speaker 1: before there bye, And you got me thinking that we 62 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,880 Speaker 1: always talk about the week after the bye. We know 63 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: how good Andy Reid is about that, and we'll talk 64 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 1: about that in two weeks. But the week before the 65 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 1: bye conjures up some thought and when you mentioned that, 66 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,280 Speaker 1: all right, thought, all right, this takes some checking into 67 00:03:31,800 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: what were you thinking when you told me about loading 68 00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 1: up before the bye and white teams are dangerous? That 69 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,440 Speaker 1: week where we talked about what can what can a 70 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 1: coach use to incentivize play effort, energy on the field 71 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 1: when you have that bad week. Every coach can use 72 00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: that bad week how he wants. You can practice Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. 73 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:53,880 Speaker 1: Didn't give him Thursday Friday off? Or you give him 74 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: the whole week off and tell him, hey, we'll see 75 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,800 Speaker 1: you the next week. Guys love the opportunity to earn 76 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: some downtime. And so going into that Raiders Chiefs game, 77 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:07,040 Speaker 1: I guarantee you the Raiders staff dangle that carrot in 78 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 1: front of the players. Hey, if we go out there 79 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 1: and give maximum effort, no matter what the outcome of 80 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: the game, I will give y'all the week off. Y'all, 81 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,800 Speaker 1: you know, take ten days off. See you the next 82 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: prepare after the Baye week over. But if y'all. Don't 83 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,720 Speaker 1: if y'all go out there and poop in your caps 84 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,920 Speaker 1: and don't show me great effort, great focus on that field, 85 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,320 Speaker 1: we will practice the day after the game Tuesday, Wednesday, 86 00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: maybe even Thursday, before you have any dawn time. So 87 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:33,159 Speaker 1: that is a character each coach can use. When you're 88 00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:36,040 Speaker 1: heading into a game before a bye week, you can 89 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,520 Speaker 1: incentivize your gas to go out there and give maximum 90 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: effort because you know they're gonna have maximum rest to 91 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:44,360 Speaker 1: prepare for that game. After the bat we always try 92 00:04:44,360 --> 00:04:47,520 Speaker 1: to give people pearls of wisdom and thought provoking you 93 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:49,839 Speaker 1: know things and phrases, but don't poop in your cap. 94 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: As a really good one. I guess I'm gonna take 95 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,599 Speaker 1: that into the tomorrow man the rest of this day. 96 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 1: Don't poop in your cap. And I don't know how 97 00:04:58,240 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 1: the Chiefs are gonna get to spend their bye week 98 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 1: because of COVID. Right, That's that's last week's podcast. The 99 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:06,119 Speaker 1: Chiefs are playing in the COVID Prevention Division and trying 100 00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 1: to win that again. The team that wins Super Bowl 101 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:09,720 Speaker 1: fifty five might be the team that does the best 102 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 1: job of mitigating COVID. I don't know. What that looks like. 103 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: But still that being said, I was thinking too. You know, 104 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 1: I'll give herm Edwards props here. The Arizona State head 105 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 1: football coach, you knows a good man, but he said, hey, 106 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 1: when you take a football game in sixty minutes, you 107 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:27,760 Speaker 1: really only go hard for six minutes. If you think 108 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: about it, it's six minutes, and it frames your mind 109 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,479 Speaker 1: on how to approach things. But if I'm going into 110 00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: a bye week, you tell me if I'm wrong. I'm 111 00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:40,359 Speaker 1: leaving nothing. I'm not holding anything back because at the 112 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 1: very least, whether I stay in a hotel room or 113 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: or that travel, I ain't planning for two weeks. Why 114 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 1: would I not just cut it loose like a playoff 115 00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,160 Speaker 1: game if I'm going into the bye week. And that's 116 00:05:51,200 --> 00:05:54,479 Speaker 1: what made you think. And I've got some stats here 117 00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 1: that are interesting, but did you not cut it loose 118 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: the week before you had to buy? Even if they 119 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,360 Speaker 1: didn't have that carrot dangle in front of you? Always alway, 120 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: that was something I held personally. I mean, the reason 121 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:06,560 Speaker 1: I looked at my schedule to understand where my bille 122 00:06:06,600 --> 00:06:08,880 Speaker 1: week was. People think the bae week is a is 123 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,520 Speaker 1: a way for the team to kind of reset itself 124 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,919 Speaker 1: and do some self scouting and correct some things. To me, 125 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 1: that Bae week was I know I'm going to have 126 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 1: an extra long period of time between two games. So 127 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:22,760 Speaker 1: that game right before the Baye Week, I was gonna 128 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:25,080 Speaker 1: showcase every I was gonna put it. When you talk 129 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: about empty the tank, I was gonna make sure that 130 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:31,680 Speaker 1: that that gasline, that gaslight was blinking, blinking red in 131 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 1: the third quarter and in the fourth quarter was all 132 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,839 Speaker 1: good to enactity it was. I was deep and I 133 00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:39,359 Speaker 1: was digging so deep just to finish that game because 134 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: I know I didn't have to get back on that 135 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,200 Speaker 1: field for almost fourteen days. I hear you, it's really interesting. 136 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna fire up another one. Those who got 137 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,080 Speaker 1: it out all the time too. You know Fort Ryley, 138 00:06:51,120 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 1: Kansas just not far from here. It's the home of 139 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: the Big Red One. Duty First Service always there's just 140 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:59,840 Speaker 1: one of them from the Big Red One. You have 141 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 1: Parmy Garrison at Fort Riley, kans is home of the 142 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,600 Speaker 1: Big Red One. Some of the most important military installations 143 00:07:05,680 --> 00:07:09,880 Speaker 1: in the world are within two hours of where you 144 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,240 Speaker 1: and I are setting right now. We'll get into some 145 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 1: more a little bit later, but it's right here. Like sometimes, 146 00:07:16,560 --> 00:07:20,520 Speaker 1: the center point of defending our country and defending our 147 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,120 Speaker 1: world many times is right here in the Chiefs Kingdom. 148 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,400 Speaker 1: And that's something we remember this week in our Defending 149 00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,160 Speaker 1: the Kingdom podcast, which is WBB win before the Bye. 150 00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:35,240 Speaker 1: That's what the Chiefs have this week against the Carolina Panthers. 151 00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: I did some research. Now there's two things here. One 152 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,720 Speaker 1: I'll get into the Chiefs before the bye under Andy Reid. 153 00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:46,160 Speaker 1: It's a little bit different than what's happened this year. 154 00:07:46,720 --> 00:07:50,360 Speaker 1: Eighteen teams have had buys so far this year. Some 155 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,720 Speaker 1: of those have been COVID induced. Right, we have seen 156 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: the schedule change, some of the followed the schedules released 157 00:07:56,280 --> 00:08:00,640 Speaker 1: in early May. The teams that have the bye. The 158 00:08:00,720 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 1: week before the bye, the record is twelve wins in 159 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: six losses. So it follows the postulate here that we 160 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 1: have is that teams are and I think maybe in 161 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 1: the COVID realm it may intensify this. I don't know, 162 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 1: but it seems like it. But the two out of 163 00:08:18,000 --> 00:08:20,960 Speaker 1: every I mean it's two to one teams win before 164 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: there by, Well, you talk about preparing for a season, 165 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 1: and we talk about how all players and coaches talk 166 00:08:26,080 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 1: about the NFL season is a is more of a marathon, right. 167 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: It's it's a lot of short races, but it's really 168 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: a marathon. It's a long season. Guys go on out, 169 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,560 Speaker 1: are come back off miss three or four weeks, come back, 170 00:08:39,800 --> 00:08:42,880 Speaker 1: and so you're you're you're constantly adjusting your schedule and 171 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:47,400 Speaker 1: your depth chart according to who's available at what time. 172 00:08:47,760 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: But when you think about it, when you think about it, 173 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:53,080 Speaker 1: because of COVID, you don't know who There is no 174 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: planning around COVID. So guys are really just getting out 175 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: the gate every week, just playing as hard as they can, 176 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:01,640 Speaker 1: and you have a chance to go one leg up 177 00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:04,080 Speaker 1: on the opponent when you might catch them in a 178 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:06,839 Speaker 1: streak of having four or five tough games and you 179 00:09:06,920 --> 00:09:09,520 Speaker 1: know this game you're gonna get an extra long break. 180 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:13,000 Speaker 1: It allows you to dig even deeper in your soul 181 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,800 Speaker 1: and bring down an even higher level of energy, emotion, passion, 182 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 1: all of those things that we see Chris Jones and 183 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,079 Speaker 1: our defense they swimming and swagging and doing all these 184 00:09:23,160 --> 00:09:26,319 Speaker 1: dances before they hit the field. That type of energy 185 00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: is hard to recreate when a game by game for 186 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,800 Speaker 1: seventeen straight weeks. So you need moments of some emotional 187 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: highs and lows, and one that you can create. One 188 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 1: is kind of already set in your schedule. Is that 189 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,400 Speaker 1: week before the buyer and two games come to note 190 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,680 Speaker 1: and there's twelve and six record of teams before thereby, 191 00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: and two of the bigger maybe upsets. One is the 192 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,160 Speaker 1: chief solusion of the Raiders, right, I mean, Derek Carr 193 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: played out of his mind. The Chiefs were getting hit 194 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,720 Speaker 1: deep on those throws. Hagaloor all that receiving corps. Really, 195 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: but that's the Raiders best game of the year, and 196 00:10:02,840 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 1: the Chiefs get ambushed to their seven and one. That's 197 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:06,760 Speaker 1: their only loss. Another one to me that comes to 198 00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,719 Speaker 1: mind that fits this mold. It just recently happened is 199 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 1: Arizona against Seattle, the Arizona Cardinals week before there by, 200 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:17,120 Speaker 1: right heck of a game, man, and Connor Murray was 201 00:10:17,120 --> 00:10:20,640 Speaker 1: on fire. It goes to overtime, but Arizona put everything 202 00:10:20,720 --> 00:10:22,439 Speaker 1: into that game. Man, They've been sick of losing to 203 00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,959 Speaker 1: the Seahawks, and they win that game. Why have a 204 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: week before they're buy Why hold back, man, You're gonna 205 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,800 Speaker 1: be firing. You know, the Navy will salute the navy. 206 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: We don't have any navy around here because we don't 207 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,959 Speaker 1: have any oceans. But the point is you're firing both torpedoes. 208 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:41,440 Speaker 1: They're uss Kansas City. That's it. Got your brother, got 209 00:10:41,480 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: you COVID love it on a Q. But those two 210 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: games come to mind where those two teams unloaded their 211 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: ammo on teams that they were sick of losing two 212 00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: the week before. They're by and it's almost even and 213 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:59,400 Speaker 1: double is impact when you get to go against a 214 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 1: division opponent when you're when you're that little brother and 215 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,720 Speaker 1: you've been getting kicked around. You know, Seattle and uh 216 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 1: San Francisco have been kind of kicking Arizona around for 217 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: the last few years. But now you got this young 218 00:11:11,320 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: guy man Kyla Murray, he got d Hopkins, you got 219 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 1: some You got a talented you know, Oh Late to 220 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:19,360 Speaker 1: North kid goes up there and plays defense. Simmons, young 221 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:21,520 Speaker 1: Simmons from O Lateth to North. He goes up there 222 00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 1: and is trying to be a star. Work on that defense. 223 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: You got some young talent there, And all you tell 224 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:29,920 Speaker 1: those guys to do is, hey, man, give me everything 225 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:32,800 Speaker 1: you got this game. I'll take care of you after 226 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:34,800 Speaker 1: this game is over. But if it takes four quarters, 227 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: and I think that game went in the overtime, took 228 00:11:36,880 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: a fifth quarter and and and still just back and forth. 229 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 1: Both teams like a heavyweight boxing mount match going Haymaker 230 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: for Hayemaker, and Arizona was able to withstand the Seattle 231 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: Seahawks and get a deserved win and a very tough 232 00:11:54,960 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: NFCU NFC West being smarts what you're talking about. You said, 233 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:04,640 Speaker 1: don't poop into cap. That's big, real close. Just forty 234 00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:08,440 Speaker 1: five minutes away from Arrowhead Stadium, the United States Command, 235 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:12,640 Speaker 1: the Command of General Staff College. It's the west point 236 00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: of West Point at Fort Leavenworth. If you're going to 237 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,840 Speaker 1: be a general, full bird colonel where they're in our 238 00:12:17,960 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 1: army and most of our allies, you go to Fort Leavenworth, Kansas. 239 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: That's where you go, I'm telling you. And if you're 240 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: ever on campus there, once we get through COVID, you 241 00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: will see full board colonels and generals that are our allies, Brits, Argentinians, 242 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: the Israelis. It's I mean, it's amazing place. It's the 243 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: west point of West Point and it's right here in 244 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: the Chiefs Kingdom. You front doorstep. But that's talking about 245 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 1: being smart and handling this. Now, the Chiefs, if you 246 00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:50,960 Speaker 1: look at Andy Reid's history the week before the bye, 247 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,480 Speaker 1: we know what he is after the buy. I mean, 248 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:56,080 Speaker 1: he's best in the league. But they're only three and 249 00:12:56,160 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 1: four before buys. But they've had to go on the 250 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,920 Speaker 1: road now. But last year, the week before the buy 251 00:13:02,160 --> 00:13:05,040 Speaker 1: was this game that turned the season around. They went 252 00:13:05,040 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 1: to Mexico City. They went to Mexico City and beat 253 00:13:08,640 --> 00:13:11,040 Speaker 1: the Chargers. When the Chiefs at that point, we're six 254 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 1: and four and everybody thought they're leaking oil. Here come 255 00:13:13,120 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Chiefs aren't gonna win the division more or less, 256 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,000 Speaker 1: they ain't gonna get back to an o AFC championship game. 257 00:13:18,320 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: And I remember the feeling going to Mexico City, as 258 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 1: do you, because that was a hard trip. But the 259 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 1: team was like, pour it into this game because we 260 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,080 Speaker 1: get two weeks, but we got to get this game 261 00:13:30,120 --> 00:13:32,440 Speaker 1: and take care of it, whether in Mexico or whether 262 00:13:32,520 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 1: in Venezuela or in you know, in in Botswana. It's like, 263 00:13:37,520 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: we've got to win this game. And I could sense that, knowing, hey, 264 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:43,440 Speaker 1: you got two weeks after that. Pour it in to 265 00:13:43,559 --> 00:13:46,120 Speaker 1: this game and turn the season around. Well, you talk 266 00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:48,560 Speaker 1: about mindset, and we know that you can't. You can't 267 00:13:48,559 --> 00:13:52,120 Speaker 1: trick yourself too many times in this game of football. 268 00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: If the guy lining up against you across the balls 269 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:58,679 Speaker 1: alpha dog, he's all pro. He's doing all he can 270 00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: get pressure on command, it's not much you can do 271 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: about it. You link arms with the teammates. You tell 272 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 1: the running back in the tight en, I need some 273 00:14:05,760 --> 00:14:08,040 Speaker 1: help on this edge. I got. I got vond Miller 274 00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: coming off the edge. I got Matt coming off the edge. 275 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: I got, I got Aaron Domod in front of me. 276 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: I'm gonna need some help. This guy is an alpha though. 277 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: But when you got that by week, you can look 278 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 1: at each other and say, hey man, I'm gonna make 279 00:14:19,640 --> 00:14:23,120 Speaker 1: this guy work every single dawn. I'm gonna make him 280 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 1: spend all the energy he has in the first half, 281 00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,040 Speaker 1: and I'm gonna see can he reach down deep in 282 00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:30,840 Speaker 1: the second half and bring it the way he's been 283 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,360 Speaker 1: showing on film. He's been able to do it for 284 00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,200 Speaker 1: four quarters. You can make an opponent. You can make 285 00:14:35,240 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 1: an opponent kind of expend their energy early on because 286 00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: you can start the game so aggressively because you're not 287 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 1: worried about tomorrow. It's winning for the day. And that's 288 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: the attitude I think we went down there to Mexico 289 00:14:48,400 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 1: City to face the charges. Our guys had one thing 290 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: in mind. Start fans, finish strong. And that mentality only comes. 291 00:14:56,320 --> 00:14:58,600 Speaker 1: You can only truly believe that when you know that 292 00:14:58,680 --> 00:15:01,240 Speaker 1: you're coming into a bye week and you don't have 293 00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:05,760 Speaker 1: a game that following week, because your body subconsciously will 294 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:08,120 Speaker 1: begin to tune it down in the fourth quarter. If 295 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,120 Speaker 1: you know you got a game coming on Thursday night 296 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:15,120 Speaker 1: or next Sunday early, you're just human nature. You can't 297 00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: finish the way you need to finish if you know 298 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 1: you got a game the next week, So I look 299 00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 1: forward to This might be the best example. We talk 300 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 1: about a Chiefs team all three phases, being able to 301 00:15:27,040 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: stack the wins like we've done the last couple of weeks. 302 00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 1: Being able to run the ball, throw the ball, play 303 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: special teams, stop the run, get after the passer, make 304 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,840 Speaker 1: big plays, turn the ball over on them, and hold 305 00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,600 Speaker 1: onto the ball. That's how we number one in the 306 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 1: turnover ratio. All of those things come into factor just 307 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:46,240 Speaker 1: one more time heading into the bye week. Yeah, changed 308 00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 1: that fourteen takeaways, tied with Cleveland for the most and 309 00:15:48,840 --> 00:15:52,000 Speaker 1: the best giveaway takeaway in the National Football League. You 310 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:54,520 Speaker 1: put that with the offense. This team has man it 311 00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: is lethal and by the way, the maneuver supports center. 312 00:15:58,680 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: This is from the general at Fort leonard Wood, Missouri. Right. 313 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:05,520 Speaker 1: Also in the Chiefs Kingdom, Fort leonard Wood, Missouri train 314 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:08,640 Speaker 1: a lot there, train our MP's chemical warfare. Talk about 315 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:11,480 Speaker 1: the engineers they trained at Fort leonard would a very 316 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:16,120 Speaker 1: important military installation. What's interesting about these bye weeks Now 317 00:16:16,160 --> 00:16:18,800 Speaker 1: the Chiefs will have their's week nine, so the week 318 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:20,760 Speaker 1: ten they're gunning for this one to try to get 319 00:16:20,760 --> 00:16:22,520 Speaker 1: to eight and one and beat at Carolina team that 320 00:16:22,560 --> 00:16:25,080 Speaker 1: I think sneaky good. I don't want you guys think 321 00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:28,040 Speaker 1: of these guys barbershop, but studying them this week, these 322 00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: guys are sneaky good. Curtis Samuel runs around, He's like 323 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 1: Tyreek Hills. He back is he's slot? Where is he? 324 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: I love Teddy Bridgewater. I mean his life was almost 325 00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:38,720 Speaker 1: taken with an injury in football. He has back almost 326 00:16:38,720 --> 00:16:42,400 Speaker 1: like Alex Smith. And then you look at their receiving corps. 327 00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:45,080 Speaker 1: Robbie Anderson's having the year of his life. And they 328 00:16:45,160 --> 00:16:48,320 Speaker 1: did something in the draft this year that had not 329 00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 1: been done since the nineteen sixty seven AFL NFL merger 330 00:16:53,000 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 1: when the drafts came together it's actually three years before 331 00:16:55,360 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: the merger. Shop Carolina spent every draft pick on a defense. Dude, everyone, 332 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,679 Speaker 1: there's no offensive, but to me, this is a dangerous 333 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,119 Speaker 1: team and show the chief ship got to load it 334 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,320 Speaker 1: up and do the whole WBBS we're talking about. When 335 00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 1: before the boy, well, I think the team when when 336 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,760 Speaker 1: the head coach got there, he looked at the team 337 00:17:16,800 --> 00:17:19,399 Speaker 1: and he knew that Carolina was built on great defense. 338 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:22,240 Speaker 1: Those those years of Ron Rivera and Sean McDermot were there. 339 00:17:22,560 --> 00:17:25,240 Speaker 1: Those are some really good defensive teams, and I think 340 00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 1: he felt over the years they kind of got away 341 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 1: from that. Once they got McCaffrey there. The offense seemed 342 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:32,920 Speaker 1: to be head we're just gonna try to outscore people. 343 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: But they realized, yeah, they were scoring points, but they 344 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: couldn't stop anybody. And so they went like you said, 345 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:41,240 Speaker 1: and spent every bit of draft draft capital on the 346 00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: defensive side of the ball. But then on offense, what 347 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: they did was they kind of reignited um, you know, 348 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:51,960 Speaker 1: they reignited the offense by using young ten Right, the 349 00:17:52,080 --> 00:17:55,280 Speaker 1: goat from Ohio State. He was barely being used Curtis 350 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: Samuels barely being used a year ago, so they've made 351 00:17:57,760 --> 00:17:59,719 Speaker 1: him a jack of all trades. And then they go 352 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: out and get a number one ride receiver from the Jets. 353 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: They get Robbie Anderson, a guy whose numbers were always 354 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:07,200 Speaker 1: putting out there, but because he was on the Jets team, 355 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:09,800 Speaker 1: he was losing across the league. He wasn't really getting 356 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:12,560 Speaker 1: the shine on the respect that he's getting nail. And 357 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:15,600 Speaker 1: that allowed a number one in Dj Moore to now 358 00:18:15,640 --> 00:18:18,360 Speaker 1: become a number two receiver and he can he can 359 00:18:18,359 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: put on the show if you don't give him the respect. 360 00:18:20,800 --> 00:18:22,879 Speaker 1: DJ Moore can put up two touchdowns on a hundred 361 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 1: yards and teen receptions before you know it, in the 362 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,120 Speaker 1: blink of an eye. And then they have depth at 363 00:18:28,119 --> 00:18:30,919 Speaker 1: the running back position because early in the season, right 364 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: McCaffrey goes down and what does Mike Davis do. He 365 00:18:33,880 --> 00:18:36,400 Speaker 1: doesn't skip a beat. He's shown that he's a guy 366 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:38,440 Speaker 1: that can step up and play at that next level. 367 00:18:38,640 --> 00:18:41,320 Speaker 1: So hey man, they got all all hands on boards. 368 00:18:41,440 --> 00:18:43,840 Speaker 1: They got a bunch of weapons, a bunch of bullets loaded, 369 00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 1: and hey, we're gonna They're gonna give us their best shot. 370 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: But I believe this defense, this offense is special teams 371 00:18:49,040 --> 00:18:51,840 Speaker 1: what we've been doing here lately, and we ride that momentum. 372 00:18:51,840 --> 00:18:54,600 Speaker 1: We keep riding that train. We have so much trust 373 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 1: in one another. When you talk about that unit, a team, 374 00:18:58,320 --> 00:19:01,520 Speaker 1: even a community between our fans, our coaches, and our players, 375 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:03,800 Speaker 1: there's nothing I don't think they can come into the 376 00:19:03,840 --> 00:19:06,760 Speaker 1: Arrowhead Stadium and break the trust between this team and 377 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:09,680 Speaker 1: the coaches and our fan base. And Matt Rule broke 378 00:19:09,720 --> 00:19:12,960 Speaker 1: out something last week. He's got PJ. Tucker, the quarterback 379 00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: from a Temple kid, and they put him in. It's 380 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,560 Speaker 1: like a Taysom Hill type guy. I mean t J Walker, 381 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,320 Speaker 1: I should say, came in. He's like a you know, 382 00:19:21,320 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 1: it's like, what's the backup quarterback doing well? They did 383 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,800 Speaker 1: the whole dual quarterback like the Saints do with Taysom Hill. 384 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 1: We'll close it out this way. This is the Chiefs 385 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,560 Speaker 1: by week next week, win before the bye. And yet 386 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,280 Speaker 1: there are let's say I'm kind of week nine, ten eleven, 387 00:19:37,320 --> 00:19:40,280 Speaker 1: there are bye weeks coming up, and then week thirteen 388 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,080 Speaker 1: here's the deal. Go back to our last Defending the 389 00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:45,560 Speaker 1: Kingdom episode. Of the three divisions, the Chiefs are playing, 390 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:47,440 Speaker 1: and that's one of the COVID division. Now, all of 391 00:19:47,480 --> 00:19:49,959 Speaker 1: a sudden, it popped out in just the last thirty 392 00:19:49,960 --> 00:19:53,160 Speaker 1: six hours. The Ravens are having issues. Some of their 393 00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:56,080 Speaker 1: top defensive players have gone to the COVID list. Yes, 394 00:19:56,359 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 1: most of these teams shop have no more bias. There 395 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 1: are no more buys. So the NFL, how you're going 396 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 1: to fit this in and how it's this going to work. 397 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:07,000 Speaker 1: They're talking about potentially taking the week out between the 398 00:20:07,080 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: championship games and the Super Bowl to allow one more 399 00:20:09,960 --> 00:20:14,239 Speaker 1: week a week eighteen, if you will, to maybe have 400 00:20:14,760 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: one week where you can fit in some rescheduled games. 401 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: But we're getting down now to the nitty gritty where 402 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,960 Speaker 1: there are no more buys. You can't really kind of 403 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 1: move the schedule around with a whole lot of flexibility. 404 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,120 Speaker 1: This is going to get real interesting over the next 405 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: seventy five to ninety days. Yeah, they are teams that 406 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: are still trying to find out who they are and 407 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,080 Speaker 1: what they're doing this season. The COVID has thrown some 408 00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:38,159 Speaker 1: loops and some curveballs into some teams organizations. But I 409 00:20:38,240 --> 00:20:40,720 Speaker 1: think that what Andy has shown is that if you 410 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 1: have a process, if you have a process that's always 411 00:20:44,320 --> 00:20:48,480 Speaker 1: looking to protect your players and you're trying to continue 412 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:51,520 Speaker 1: to mold and form them players to grow as a 413 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:53,600 Speaker 1: team and as a unit on the field, you don't 414 00:20:53,640 --> 00:20:56,080 Speaker 1: really worry about the product until the end of the season. 415 00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: You have certain things that you want guys to come 416 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: into the facility and work on on day by day basis. 417 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:06,080 Speaker 1: And part of that this year was the trace in contact. 418 00:21:06,760 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 1: I'm wearing your badges, um, having the face mask on, 419 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:13,639 Speaker 1: being social distance, washing your hands, all the things that 420 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 1: we were asking the nation to do. Our players had 421 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 1: to do that tenfold and it became you had to 422 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 1: sacrifice some of your individual rights for the sake of 423 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:24,960 Speaker 1: the team. And when when we talk about military appreciation, 424 00:21:25,359 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 1: that is the mentality those of guys have three hundred 425 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:31,200 Speaker 1: and sixty five days out of the year they sacrifice 426 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: everything for the unit. And so with that we got 427 00:21:34,359 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 1: we got so many multiple units to go over as 428 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 1: you as you continue to speak, I'm just gonna keep 429 00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: flashing up, Yeah, I got, I got, I got, I 430 00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:43,959 Speaker 1: got a bunch of the show. So I'm gonna keep 431 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:46,159 Speaker 1: on doing this as you close this, baby, there you 432 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,600 Speaker 1: go the fourtieth Engineer Battalion. That's what I'm talking about, 433 00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 1: shappers man. They gotta blow stuff up for the blower. Yeah, 434 00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:55,960 Speaker 1: you got the Navy going on. There's some are force. 435 00:21:56,119 --> 00:21:58,360 Speaker 1: You got them all.

She talked about Andy Reid. 445 00:22:38,920 --> 00:22:41,200 Speaker 1: Andy Reid talks about two things and dealing with COVID 446 00:22:41,359 --> 00:22:43,520 Speaker 1: for all of us, all of us, and it goes 447 00:22:43,520 --> 00:22:48,520 Speaker 1: back to the military. One unselfishness. Two discipline, he said, 448 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: and humility. He said to me, it is this is 449 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing in an interview I did with him just 450 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,240 Speaker 1: last week. He said to me, in my humble opinion, 451 00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,639 Speaker 1: it's really about being unselfish. We got coaches, we have 452 00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:03,040 Speaker 1: players staying in hotel rooms away from their families to 453 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,159 Speaker 1: try to stay safe for their families and for their team. 454 00:23:06,680 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 1: I'm reminded of another one, a huge Chiefs fan, and 455 00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:11,919 Speaker 1: when I got this, he was the Chairman of the 456 00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: Joint Chiefs of Staff. That is the top rank you 457 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: can have in our military, and it's General Richard Myers, 458 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: who grew up in Kansas City, went to Shawneemision North 459 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 1: High School.

He's at kse State as the president 461 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: of the entire university. But at the time, and he 462 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,600 Speaker 1: had to do it in some difficult circumstances. He had 463 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:37,280 Speaker 1: to have wisdom, strength, courage, resolve, and discipline and try 464 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,440 Speaker 1: to lead that to others. Shop I'm telling you, I've 465 00:23:40,520 --> 00:23:43,560 Speaker 1: seen it in Andy Reid. If he pulls this off, 466 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,160 Speaker 1: this will be his best job yet. And to try 467 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:49,160 Speaker 1: to win before the bye will just be one more 468 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 1: thing from this head coach.
