But not only him. 49 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: More importantly, coach Jim Reid, University of Richmond's own more 50 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 1: legendary in the Northeast region because he was the legendary 51 00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:36,720 Speaker 1: coach at U MASS won so many championships up there 52 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:38,840 Speaker 1: when the Atlantic ten Division was a part of it. 53 00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 1: Used to kick our butts when I was at Richmond, 54 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:42,560 Speaker 1: but then he came.

It's the 61 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: best small school high school football league in the state 62 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 1: of Kansas. Of course, they've won ten state titles there. 63 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:11,120 Speaker 1: But I found out that they prepared the tailgate. It 64 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: was Landmark implement and they were listening in Washington defending 65 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:16,920 Speaker 1: the Kingdom whether flipping burgers and do not dogs from 66 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: the trail gate. So hey take defending the Kingdom to 67 00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,799 Speaker 1: yours hailgate. The other one was really cool because Pine Reach, 68 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,840 Speaker 1: South Dakota. They were putting together a playground. It's the 69 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 1: Where Angels Play Foundation. So sometimes you get down a 70 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:31,639 Speaker 1: rabbit hole, it gets kind of crazy. This rabbit hole 71 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: is good to go down. Find I go to a 72 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:36,440 Speaker 1: search engine and find where Angels Play Foundation. They have 73 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: done playgrounds all over the world. They've done them out 74 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,360 Speaker 1: of Tara, Canada and Rwanda. Here's how they started. Remember 75 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 1: the terrible tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut 76 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:49,440 Speaker 1: back in twenty twelve, twenty eight children were killed in 77 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: teachers they started a program where they would build a 78 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: playgrounds to memorialize those kids and teachers that were lost. 79 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 1: That's how it started. Now that's going on to places 80 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 1: like Rwanda that they were doing it with the Ogalala 81 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:08,480 Speaker 1: Lakota Sue tribe that has a brand new playground put 82 00:04:08,480 --> 00:04:10,800 Speaker 1: together by the Way Angels play foundation. Man, we talk 83 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 1: about protecting your village and what an amazing village program 84 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:17,839 Speaker 1: has adopted. They adopted not only their backyard, but the nation, 85 00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:22,400 Speaker 1: but the world, the world right worldwide. Such an appreciation 86 00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 1: to a group like that for such a just a 87 00:04:25,839 --> 00:04:28,360 Speaker 1: I mean, it warms your heart to know it is. Um, 88 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: they've been able to make a positive impact off such 89 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 1: a traumatic event. And what do they listened to and 90 00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:39,240 Speaker 1: watch during breaks while they're on these playground jobs defending 91 00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:42,560 Speaker 1: the kingdom? These are chiefs fans that actually are centered 92 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 1: in New Jersey that love the Chiefs. All right, let's 93 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: jump into this episode of defending the Kingdom. Uh, And 94 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:50,080 Speaker 1: we're calling it to blitz or not to blitz. So 95 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 1: we're bringing in Shakespeare. We're bringing in the wisdom of 96 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: your father Smoke Barberum, you've we just lost him the 97 00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:00,160 Speaker 1: last fall, but we're bringing in Smoke here because as 98 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 1: we want to talk about, when is it proper to 99 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:04,040 Speaker 1: blitz er not to blitch? And why do we bring 100 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,280 Speaker 1: it up this week because to me, it is the 101 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,840 Speaker 1: story of the Ravens Chiefs game on Sunday Night Football. 102 00:05:10,000 --> 00:05:13,200 Speaker 1: No team has blutched more than the Baltimore Ravens over 103 00:05:13,240 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: the past for seasons. What do you think it when 104 00:05:16,560 --> 00:05:18,520 Speaker 1: you're here? Blitz er, not blitz but the first person 105 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:20,520 Speaker 1: that comes up to your mind is there decordinating right 106 00:05:20,880 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: wink Martindale. He is a tremendous blitz architect. He builds 107 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: a blitz package. Is so hard to know where he's 108 00:05:29,040 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 1: coming from, who he's bringing, and how often he's bringing it, 109 00:05:32,480 --> 00:05:34,359 Speaker 1: And a lot of time when he's not bringing pressure, 110 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: it almost feels like he is because he wants to 111 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: speed up the quarterbacks internal clock. And so when the 112 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:42,839 Speaker 1: blitz and when not the blitz, I mean again, against 113 00:05:42,839 --> 00:05:45,600 Speaker 1: a guy like Pat Mahomes, it's almost no great opportunity, 114 00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:48,080 Speaker 1: no great time, no great moment or situation in the 115 00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:50,400 Speaker 1: game that's going to be advantageous to a defense to 116 00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: blitz because he has enough elusiveness to just get that 117 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: extra step, got one extra click to allow his offensive 118 00:05:57,760 --> 00:06:00,839 Speaker 1: guy to beat your coverage and then hey, it's a 119 00:06:00,880 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: big play either for the defense or the offense. That's 120 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,680 Speaker 1: the thing about the blitz package, you understand it's gonna 121 00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:07,280 Speaker 1: be a big play. So he is gonna be a 122 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,120 Speaker 1: sack that sets up a second or third and long, 123 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,280 Speaker 1: or it's gonna be a first day on or a touchdown. 124 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 1: And you gotta have the right guys, the right dudes 125 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:16,960 Speaker 1: on that back end to allow yourself to blitz and 126 00:06:17,279 --> 00:06:21,000 Speaker 1: and and leave those cornerbacks and safeties uncovered. But then 127 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: you also have the right guys up front. They can 128 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,360 Speaker 1: actually get there against one on one and so the 129 00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 1: blitz and not the blitz. Hey man, it's like, uh 130 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,000 Speaker 1: six or half a dozen? Which one do you want? 131 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 1: Wink of Martindale And I respect him, he's been around 132 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: the league a long time. But wasn't that like a 133 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:38,159 Speaker 1: game show host? What's just that? Like like Drew Carry 134 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:40,159 Speaker 1: or Steve Harvey back in the day. It's like with 135 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: the big long microphone wake of Martindale's and he's coordinating 136 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: the Baltimore defense. But your point about Mahomes is a 137 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: good one. In fact, looking it up, Mahomes last year 138 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,720 Speaker 1: he had a blitz a quarterback rating against the Blitz 139 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 1: of one thirty four point five That was the best 140 00:06:55,520 --> 00:07:00,320 Speaker 1: by any quarterback in five seasons. So it's like Calf 141 00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: does it. Well, maybe maybe it's a whole dozen eggs 142 00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: because he almost like wants you to blitch the process 143 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,279 Speaker 1: of a quarterback when we talk about how to dissect 144 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:11,320 Speaker 1: the blitzes. First of all, you have to realize where 145 00:07:11,320 --> 00:07:14,120 Speaker 1: they're coming from, who's coming and do you have enough 146 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: blockers to account for it. Those are things that the 147 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:20,800 Speaker 1: quarterbacks have to make a split second adjustment and decision 148 00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: upun And then you have to know how your offensive 149 00:07:23,200 --> 00:07:25,680 Speaker 1: play matches up against the defense to know where you're 150 00:07:25,680 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 1: gonna throw the ball. What makes Pat Mahomes so special, 151 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: everybody can say it's the way his central processing unit 152 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: that's CPU right, it works on a whole different level. 153 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,680 Speaker 1: He's been at five G for his whole lifetime when 154 00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:42,000 Speaker 1: it comes to processing defenses and coverages and things like that, 155 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 1: and being able to have the arm, talent and mobility 156 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 1: to get the ball there from any arm slots off 157 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 1: your back foot. He doesn't need to step up and 158 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 1: climb the pocket to deliver the ball sixty yards down 159 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:55,600 Speaker 1: the field. As we saw from last Sunday, that is 160 00:07:55,640 --> 00:07:59,760 Speaker 1: a it's an amazingly challenging situation for any defense to 161 00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,360 Speaker 1: being and he makes you pay. When you blitz and 162 00:08:02,400 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: don't get there, your defense will pay to back up 163 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: your point. He was the second least blitz quarterback in 164 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: the last half of the season last year, and when 165 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 1: you saw it in the playoffs or Super Bowl fifty five, 166 00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: they weren't gonna blitz him. Todd Bowles loves the blitz. 167 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:18,240 Speaker 1: He's like, I'm just gonna get my animals to rush 168 00:08:18,360 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: four and then I'm gonna drop seven into coverage. Against 169 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:25,360 Speaker 1: the Browns, I counted sixty one snaps. They blitzed him 170 00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:28,080 Speaker 1: only twelve times, like they couldn't help themselves. But when 171 00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,560 Speaker 1: they did, he had a twenty two yarder to Tyreek Hill. 172 00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 1: The seventy five yarder is a blitz where they're tired 173 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:36,080 Speaker 1: of getting Kelsey to eating them up and they're like, 174 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,360 Speaker 1: let's give it a shot, and then he makes that play. 175 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,480 Speaker 1: So but here are the Ravens like this is what 176 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:44,360 Speaker 1: we do? Yeah, yeah, And that to me is the 177 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,200 Speaker 1: crux of this game. What would the Ravens do and 178 00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: come homes continue to do his magic against it. Pride, 179 00:08:50,360 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 1: as you know, they say, pride comes before the fall, 180 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:55,800 Speaker 1: and so before the fall in the Ravens will come 181 00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:58,160 Speaker 1: there pride and you got to either stand for something 182 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:01,280 Speaker 1: or you'll fall for everything. And then the Ravens game 183 00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: in and game out throughout the season, they've always stood 184 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,480 Speaker 1: behind their pressure package. They've been able to blitz everybody 185 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,199 Speaker 1: get there. They even though you give up some big plays, 186 00:09:09,240 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: they feel like the possession it gets them the ball back. 187 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,880 Speaker 1: They have this amazing run game. They can eat up 188 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: the clock, they can limit your possessions due to their 189 00:09:16,559 --> 00:09:21,719 Speaker 1: offense being uh so uh so good at just maintaining 190 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: and possessing the ball. That has been their mantra. But 191 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: they've had some great pass rushers, they had a great 192 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: D line, great Patrick Queen, great linebackers. They've been able 193 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,520 Speaker 1: to be a part of that corp over and over. 194 00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:37,680 Speaker 1: Losing Justin Peters on the back end, that's a I mean, say, 195 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,000 Speaker 1: he has some good and bagged qualities, but he's a 196 00:09:40,080 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: tremendous asset to be able to go mano a mano 197 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 1: against almost any wide receiving this league. And for him 198 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: to be lost for the season, Um, maybe they just 199 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 1: have an adjusted right. Um. You talked about last week 200 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: against a Monday night against the Raiders, US It's gonna 201 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:59,000 Speaker 1: be gonna be tricky to see what they do, who 202 00:09:59,040 --> 00:10:01,920 Speaker 1: they match up against, and how can they steal design 203 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: and develop some sort of pressure package against weapons like 204 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 1: the Cheetah, Kelsey even m de robbing the other guys. 205 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: We got, we got Pringo, we got, we got, we 206 00:10:12,320 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: have so many weapons to come at him. It's hard 207 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:16,320 Speaker 1: for me to believe you're gonna leave any of those 208 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 1: guys on Alan when you know that the advantage goes 209 00:10:20,240 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: to the Chiefs. I'm gonna further ask you more on this. 210 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 1: Just a couple other notes on Mahomes against the Blitz, 211 00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 1: which is crazy. His average play nine point one against 212 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:33,880 Speaker 1: the Blitz since twenty eighteen. That's the best in the 213 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,760 Speaker 1: NFL by far. His passer rating against the Blitz since 214 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:41,520 Speaker 1: twenty eighteen became the main starter best in the National 215 00:10:41,520 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: Football League. And to your point we mentioned this is 216 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,400 Speaker 1: what Baltimore does, This is what Wick Martindale does. Last 217 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:50,240 Speaker 1: year they had a game to Baltimore Ravens where they 218 00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: had five different defensive backs that got a sack that 219 00:10:55,920 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: had never happened in the history of the National Football 220 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: League in one hundred and one years. Five different dbs, 221 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:04,720 Speaker 1: but you already mentioned Marcus Peters is out for the year. 222 00:11:05,000 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: They didn't have Jimmy Smith against the Raiders either, so 223 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,000 Speaker 1: now you've got some young guys. You still got Marlon Humphrey, 224 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 1: a really good player. Those safeties are good, but I 225 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:15,000 Speaker 1: feel like they're better blitzers and cover guys, and all 226 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,360 Speaker 1: of a sudden, they just continue to do what they do. 227 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:19,400 Speaker 1: We're just gonna keep, you know, full throttle, and we're 228 00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:22,720 Speaker 1: gonna bring them bringing six, bringing seven. But I almost 229 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:24,599 Speaker 1: could argue it lost the game for him because it 230 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:27,920 Speaker 1: puts some guys in situations that gave the Raiders opportunities 231 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,120 Speaker 1: I'm not sure they're gonna have if you didn't just 232 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,319 Speaker 1: go all out crazy, blizz Man. The process is the process, 233 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,280 Speaker 1: and I think that they feel like they have a 234 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:38,280 Speaker 1: better chance coming after you than sitting back and playing 235 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 1: vanilla type defense. Obviously, you can't display cover three and 236 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: cover two against Pat Mahomes. He'll eat that up for lunch, dinner, 237 00:11:45,640 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 1: and breakfast every day of the week. But you think 238 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 1: you gotta do some things creative, You're gonna have to 239 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: do some things with that defensive front. Those linebackers, like 240 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: you said, you're gonna have to bring secondary guys to 241 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 1: create some some some looks of pressure, even though you're 242 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: still having seven guys in coverage. Maybe you drop an 243 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 1: in and bring a corner off the edge. And a 244 00:12:04,240 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 1: lot of that is based off of our offensive personnel 245 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,680 Speaker 1: and how we lined up. If we line up with 246 00:12:08,760 --> 00:12:11,280 Speaker 1: tight ends and slide receivers too close to the box, 247 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 1: well that allows a corner of safety to act like 248 00:12:13,559 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: he's in coverage but still come maybe a delayed blitz, 249 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:20,080 Speaker 1: a delayed rush. Different creativity things like that creates pressure. 250 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 1: And you're hoping that you're creating pressure that Pat Mahomes 251 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:26,520 Speaker 1: isn't ready for. But then again that becomes Pat Mahomes 252 00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 1: has a photographic memory. He's been watching so much for him. 253 00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:32,400 Speaker 1: He knows these Ravens. It's a reason he's been so 254 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:34,880 Speaker 1: successful against the Ravens. So since he's been in the league, 255 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 1: he's seen all the looks, he knows all the variations, 256 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,199 Speaker 1: and it's so hard to trick him and get him 257 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,120 Speaker 1: off his game, and it's just not done often. And 258 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: even you do do it for the first half, well 259 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: we got a half time to go in and talk 260 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:48,920 Speaker 1: about it and rediscover it. He only needs a good 261 00:12:49,000 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 1: quarter to put up twenty four twenty one points. And 262 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:53,200 Speaker 1: if you don't have a great enough league and you 263 00:12:53,240 --> 00:12:56,760 Speaker 1: can't possess the ball, keep it out of Pat's hands. 264 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: It's always, always has been so far a recipe for Zast. 265 00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 1: Part of the reason the Ravens have been the best 266 00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:06,119 Speaker 1: blitching team, and you alluded to it. They've had superior personnel. 267 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:09,160 Speaker 1: They don't have Mad Judon anymore. But they got away. 268 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,160 Speaker 1: They used the trade. We got Orlando Brown Junior from them. Uh, 269 00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 1: it's the thirty first pick. They use it on a 270 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,000 Speaker 1: guy that is a kind of a Blitzer guy. Even 271 00:13:17,040 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 1: though he didn't have a sack as last year at 272 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 1: Penn State, he got a sack in the game against 273 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,679 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Their bigs are good. Calais Campbell is still there, 274 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: dudes a moose. Uh. And then you look at Derek Wolfe, 275 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 1: he's Moose number two. And then you've got Justin Houston 276 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:32,559 Speaker 1: now in there with so edge. He's gonna have an edge. 277 00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: You know he's gonna come. He's gonna cos he's gonna 278 00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:37,640 Speaker 1: have a little bit of an acta ground against the 279 00:13:37,720 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 1: cancer the cheese. But you look forward to that, who 280 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: doesn't have a xta ground against the Chiefs. How successful 281 00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,320 Speaker 1: that we've been over the last few years. Right, And 282 00:13:44,360 --> 00:13:46,240 Speaker 1: so when when you when you when you find yourself 283 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:48,520 Speaker 1: being not a part of what is going on here, 284 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,240 Speaker 1: not a part of the package, whatever direction the chief 285 00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: team has gone, and you decide that, you know, justin Houston, 286 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: you're not really part of the future. We commend you, 287 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:58,800 Speaker 1: and we think for everything you've done for the Chief's Kingdom, 288 00:13:58,920 --> 00:14:01,000 Speaker 1: you're part of the foundation, but you do not part 289 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,959 Speaker 1: at a future. For him to feel like he had 290 00:14:03,240 --> 00:14:05,160 Speaker 1: a little bit more left in the tank, Oh, we're 291 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,599 Speaker 1: gonna get every bit of every ounce of gas he 292 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,959 Speaker 1: got left in Tank's gonna be released on Sunday against 293 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:11,880 Speaker 1: the Chiefs, and we're gonna have to block him. An 294 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:15,000 Speaker 1: interesting thing. He usually lines up on the right side 295 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:18,959 Speaker 1: of the Ravens defense. Orlando Brown Junior, the former Raven 296 00:14:19,200 --> 00:14:22,520 Speaker 1: We'll have to block him some a lot in this game. 297 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: But you mentioned Queen. I love Queen coming out of 298 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 1: VLAs shoes a linebacker. He had a middle gap blitz 299 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 1: that was out standing against the Raiders. It was like 300 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: one Nope, gone dead plays dead. But let's bring up 301 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 1: the point of the Chiefs young offensive line here, let's 302 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: flip it back now to the Red and gold side. 303 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: I really like what they did in the middle of 304 00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 1: picking up a gap blitzes against the Browns. I thought 305 00:14:44,080 --> 00:14:46,880 Speaker 1: they did an excellent job. Patrick talked about a Monday 306 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 1: Night show Kingdom show that I did with him. He's 307 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:52,400 Speaker 1: worked so hard on pocket presents, stepping up into the pocket. 308 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:54,800 Speaker 1: Trust is going to pick those up. But how much? 309 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:58,640 Speaker 1: Because the Ravens do bring Calculus three in blitzing to 310 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,200 Speaker 1: a young offensive line, do they want to play some 311 00:15:01,320 --> 00:15:03,800 Speaker 1: mind games and kind of mind jack those guys in 312 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: the middle and try to get some of those an 313 00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 1: B get blitzer. So it's multiple ways you can pick 314 00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 1: up blitzes and pressures. But what you want to do 315 00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,640 Speaker 1: is either decided it's going to be a big on 316 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 1: B where our line is picking up their D line, 317 00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: or you're gonna slide the protection, which means we start 318 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: the center. He counts to Mike and if you're my guard, 319 00:15:19,880 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: you got the next guy beside the mic, you've my tackle. 320 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 1: You got the third guy out, and we just count 321 00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: them off one, two, three, and then we got those five. 322 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,400 Speaker 1: Anybody else has come. That's the running back tight ends 323 00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:31,480 Speaker 1: position to pick up. So it's two different ways to 324 00:15:31,520 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: do it, slide protection or man on man, and how 325 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:36,760 Speaker 1: we choose to do it has to do it how 326 00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,640 Speaker 1: much time we need for Pat to have back there. 327 00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 1: Obviously in a man on man type things, it's a 328 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: little bit easier to have those one on ones get beat, 329 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: get immediate pressure on the quarterback. But usually when you 330 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 1: slide sometimes they don't bring enough. And now we got 331 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: some free guys that can go help and that that 332 00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:55,520 Speaker 1: seems to create a little bit longer, a little bit 333 00:15:55,520 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 1: longer time clock for Pat to get rid of the ball. 334 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,480 Speaker 1: And in Baltimore does it both ways. They bring a 335 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:02,400 Speaker 1: lot of pressure up those a gaps like we saw 336 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:05,400 Speaker 1: from m Queen against the Raiders. Um, and that that's 337 00:16:05,400 --> 00:16:08,080 Speaker 1: gonna test Creed Humphries right as a center. Um, he's 338 00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,480 Speaker 1: gonna set the coverage, he's gonna set the protection, and 339 00:16:10,560 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 1: he has to be able to work pass guys off, 340 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 1: work combo protection blocks. And when he's free, he's gonna 341 00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:18,520 Speaker 1: have to clean up the clean they called clean the 342 00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: pocket up. Sometimes when a defensive line is sitting there 343 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: trying to get his hands on the ball, it's not good. 344 00:16:23,600 --> 00:16:25,400 Speaker 1: You gotta clean them up. You gotta, of course, that 345 00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: got to keep his hands down so that we can 346 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 1: complete passes. So our offensive line is gonna be challenged early. 347 00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: But these these these guys are young and hungry, and 348 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,400 Speaker 1: they've been asking are I think over and over since 349 00:16:35,440 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 1: training camp. Keep giving us, keep feeding us, feed us 350 00:16:38,640 --> 00:16:40,280 Speaker 1: more and more and more and more so that we 351 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:42,280 Speaker 1: can go out there and produce and put up. We 352 00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:44,400 Speaker 1: put up the third, third or fourth. Only two or 353 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:46,520 Speaker 1: three teams scored more points than we, And I think 354 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,720 Speaker 1: that a lot of people thought we struggled, right, We 355 00:16:48,760 --> 00:16:52,920 Speaker 1: struggled off. We wasn't really clicking on all on all pistons, 356 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:54,760 Speaker 1: but we still end up in the top five and 357 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: scoring each week. So um, it's gonna be so hard 358 00:16:58,040 --> 00:17:00,800 Speaker 1: to think that there's any defensive scheme it's gonna do 359 00:17:00,840 --> 00:17:03,360 Speaker 1: anything besides maybe you know, be more of a speed 360 00:17:03,400 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 1: but for the Chiefs rather than actually stop Pat mahomes 361 00:17:06,359 --> 00:17:09,160 Speaker 1: in our offense. Talking about cleaning up the pocket, one 362 00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 1: of the things I kind of like to see is 363 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,959 Speaker 1: tray Smith clean up the pocket, because what he'll do 364 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: the Chiefs rookie right guard, he'll put you in the 365 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:20,000 Speaker 1: garbage disposal and turn on the switch and pocket is clean, 366 00:17:20,359 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: and you're just kind of like a bit of ash. 367 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,640 Speaker 1: I knew what player you're talking about, Like that one. 368 00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 1: You were a lineback. You were a lineback, you were 369 00:17:27,520 --> 00:17:30,320 Speaker 1: a linebacker. You didn't like it. He ear hold that dude, 370 00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:33,320 Speaker 1: ear holding the Pat Mahomes scrambled for the touchdown. If 371 00:17:33,359 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: you ain't seen it, watch it. The last block at 372 00:17:36,119 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 1: the gold line tray Smith he disposal guilloteam. He took 373 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:44,439 Speaker 1: the guy's head, all the guy. The guys laying on 374 00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:47,159 Speaker 1: the ground throwing up imaginary flag. I thought it was 375 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:49,000 Speaker 1: the white flag. He was like, it's over, I'm done. 376 00:17:49,240 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 1: Take me, bring the cart out here, scrape me up 377 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: off the field. A mac truck just hit me and 378 00:17:54,560 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: I don't know the license plate. I don't know anything 379 00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:00,080 Speaker 1: else about it, but it was amazing. Let's spring a 380 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:02,719 Speaker 1: couple of footballly nerd things here. Because you talked about, hey, 381 00:18:02,720 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: I'm gonna block the third guy over so many times 382 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,720 Speaker 1: people are saved. Why it's the quarterback pointing to that guy, Well, 383 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,880 Speaker 1: he's identifying the mic. How much of your counting system 384 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: here is I'm gonna identify forty four? Is the mic? 385 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 1: Forty four is the mic. Now, all of a sudden, 386 00:18:17,000 --> 00:18:19,960 Speaker 1: the line does their protection based on the scheme you've 387 00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:22,679 Speaker 1: got called off the counting system. But my beacon of 388 00:18:22,760 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: counting is off that whomever the quarterback dictates count off 389 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:28,080 Speaker 1: this guy. And that's why everybody has to be on 390 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:30,400 Speaker 1: the same page. And it's not even you don't want 391 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: to be on your your your page if you think 392 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: it's right. If everybody sees things through Pet's eyes, see 393 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,120 Speaker 1: see it the way Pat sees it. If they got 394 00:18:38,119 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: a stack alignment, then the guy the line is the 395 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:43,160 Speaker 1: next number, right, it's not the guy coming off the line, 396 00:18:43,240 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 1: so that's gonna be zero, zero, one, two three. Don't 397 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:48,120 Speaker 1: don't get it mixed up and leave a free hitter. 398 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:50,880 Speaker 1: See it through Pet's eyes, however, he wants we watch 399 00:18:50,960 --> 00:18:53,320 Speaker 1: them together, Pat, how do you see this defense? Looking 400 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,240 Speaker 1: all right? That's my zero. Like you said, forty four 401 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:57,919 Speaker 1: is zero, So that means the dts are ones and 402 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 1: then the two linebackers the twos ends threes. Okay, let's 403 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:04,080 Speaker 1: go run protection boom. Well, how about that guy stacks? 404 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:05,719 Speaker 1: What if they stack, Let's go ahead and slide right. 405 00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 1: Let's let's simplify it. If they do too many movements 406 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:12,200 Speaker 1: and knives and edges and ets and tes, all these 407 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,560 Speaker 1: different types of stunts. Well, we're just gonna slide the protection, 408 00:19:14,560 --> 00:19:16,440 Speaker 1: buy me extra second, and we're gonna make them pay 409 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: with a double move. That's how it's done each and 410 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:23,400 Speaker 1: every play every week as we prepare for a different team, 411 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,359 Speaker 1: a different defense, it's all about seeing things. Coach the 412 00:19:26,520 --> 00:19:29,480 Speaker 1: enemy coach read they see things through Pat's eyes because 413 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,920 Speaker 1: he calls it and sees it. That's how you execute 414 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: and you want these young offensive linemen now are gonna 415 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 1: face the best blitching team in the NFL, the count 416 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,720 Speaker 1: three blitzers I call them, of the Baltimore Ravens. To 417 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: see it through Pat's eye. Make sure that counting system 418 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,959 Speaker 1: is good on who's the zero, who's the beacon? Who 419 00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 1: do we set our time off of our blocking numbering system? 420 00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: All right, Okay, let's go to the other side of 421 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,800 Speaker 1: you being a defensive player. Okay, I know we horrified 422 00:19:54,840 --> 00:19:57,080 Speaker 1: you with the ear whole shot by Trey Smith and 423 00:19:57,200 --> 00:20:01,040 Speaker 1: talking about garbage disposals. You play defense in this league 424 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:03,120 Speaker 1: for ten years. When I ask you about this week 425 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,320 Speaker 1: or let's talk about blitzing in this game, because I 426 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:08,080 Speaker 1: think it's the biggest thing of this game. Your eyes 427 00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 1: lit up. What about let's talk about what makes a 428 00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,880 Speaker 1: good blitzing team. Why have the ravens other than the personnel. 429 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,640 Speaker 1: And they've got a lot of new personnel here. They're 430 00:20:17,640 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 1: gonna trying to figure this out just for their injuries 431 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,080 Speaker 1: and the salary cap and such. I mean, they can't 432 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: page Matt jude On all right, So what makes a 433 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 1: good blitzing team with even personnel wall it talks about. 434 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: First of all, it's you said it first, it's personnel. 435 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 1: You got to have the ends in the corners to 436 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,040 Speaker 1: be able to bring pressure. You gotta have the ends 437 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,119 Speaker 1: that can get there, and then the corners that can 438 00:20:38,160 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 1: reroute and stay with these receivers. That's that's the basic 439 00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,320 Speaker 1: first priority of any Bliss package. Make sure you get 440 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:46,240 Speaker 1: some solid Russians and make sure you get cornerbacks to 441 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,280 Speaker 1: have great feed to camera and they can run and 442 00:20:50,840 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 1: make plays on the ball down the field. After that, 443 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,160 Speaker 1: it becomes a little bit of a chess, little cat 444 00:20:56,160 --> 00:20:58,680 Speaker 1: and mouse game, because you have to work at the skies. 445 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 1: You have to make something look like something else in 446 00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,280 Speaker 1: order to make that quarterback hold the ball. Just one 447 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,680 Speaker 1: extra second. The way these quarterbacks have been trained in 448 00:21:07,840 --> 00:21:11,480 Speaker 1: all the film study the offensive, everybody knows what everybody 449 00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 1: does now. So you gotta make your blitz cover one 450 00:21:15,080 --> 00:21:17,200 Speaker 1: look like cover zero. You gotta make your cover zero 451 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: looks like three deep. You gotta make your three deep 452 00:21:19,160 --> 00:21:21,560 Speaker 1: look like you're bringing pressure. And the Ravens will do 453 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 1: it over and over again. Where they have eight guys 454 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: at the line of scrimmage, you only got five to block. 455 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:28,639 Speaker 1: You bring a running back, you bring a tight end, 456 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: that's seven. They still got one more. So you have to, 457 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:36,359 Speaker 1: through film study, figure out what these guys. There's some tendency, 458 00:21:36,800 --> 00:21:38,880 Speaker 1: whether a guy has his feet in the wrong position, 459 00:21:39,359 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: or the way a guy's a yard or two outside 460 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:44,640 Speaker 1: of the line of scrimmage, there's something they're giving away 461 00:21:44,800 --> 00:21:47,159 Speaker 1: where you can determine who's coming and who's not. And 462 00:21:47,240 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 1: even when you don't determine that and there is a 463 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:50,560 Speaker 1: free hitter, you have to have a person at the 464 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:54,239 Speaker 1: quarterback position they can acknowledge that and know he has 465 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 1: to get rid of the ball. Sometimes one of the 466 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,400 Speaker 1: best players in football is an incomplete pass. You don't 467 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 1: take the sack, You live one another down and you 468 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: let you wait for the next time they showed that 469 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:06,560 Speaker 1: same look, and then you make them pay. And I 470 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: think that's the maturation process we're seeing right now. And 471 00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes, I think from twenty eighteen to now that 472 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: very thing and it continues to progress. He's not there. 473 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 1: It's not a finished product, he admits it. But at 474 00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,119 Speaker 1: that very fact is what we're seeing. Patrick do better. 475 00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: Just throw it. It's incomplete. You got a second and 476 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:25,679 Speaker 1: ten bother you. It don't bother a third and ten 477 00:22:25,720 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 1: bother Mahomes. It didn't bother him, And when he sees 478 00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,240 Speaker 1: it again, that memory kicks in. But going back to 479 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 1: let's tuck when blitzes don't work, and when they don't work, 480 00:22:36,800 --> 00:22:40,160 Speaker 1: I mean, wow, you talk about risk reward and again 481 00:22:40,200 --> 00:22:42,320 Speaker 1: I think the Raiders lost or won the game, and 482 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 1: the Ravens lost the game because of the fact that 483 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,639 Speaker 1: Derek Carr saught. It's gonna be cover zero. Man, this 484 00:22:47,760 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: is a blitz zero and I got trips over here. 485 00:22:50,440 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 1: If I just bump Humphrey enough, which they did, I 486 00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,120 Speaker 1: have forty yards of the field to throw to them. 487 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: I can, dude. It's just like the Patrick Mahomes played 488 00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 1: at Tyreek hell. When I hard, I'm like, what are 489 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: the Ravens doing? They just handed the game to him. Man. 490 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:05,879 Speaker 1: It always happens when you say in some of the 491 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:08,479 Speaker 1: most critical moments, because I believe that there is that 492 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: mentality of the last thing I want you to do 493 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,040 Speaker 1: is be able to continue to hold the ball and 494 00:23:13,080 --> 00:23:15,639 Speaker 1: wait for receivers to uncover. When it's when it's a 495 00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:17,760 Speaker 1: duo die dawn, when it's a crucial third d down 496 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:19,920 Speaker 1: and crucial driving the game, you just want you want 497 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:23,240 Speaker 1: to make that quarterbacks internal time just pick up. You 498 00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,199 Speaker 1: want him to deliver the ball before he's ready. That 499 00:23:25,320 --> 00:23:27,680 Speaker 1: helps the defense to make plays. And then you also 500 00:23:27,720 --> 00:23:30,720 Speaker 1: want to create a situation where he's not so sure 501 00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:33,159 Speaker 1: about what you're doing defensively. You want to create that 502 00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:36,080 Speaker 1: little bit of that doubt, right that that lack of 503 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: trust that the guys are going to pick up the 504 00:23:38,680 --> 00:23:41,439 Speaker 1: blitzers the way we did it in practice, and when 505 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: you start seeing those goals, I mean that that that 506 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,000 Speaker 1: can cause a lot of confusion itself. When you talk 507 00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: about how our offense produces and products and has a 508 00:23:50,160 --> 00:23:52,919 Speaker 1: has an ability to be as fishing as possible. When 509 00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:56,520 Speaker 1: you talk about getting the ball down the field.
