1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,800
Speaker 1: Showed up today. Huh that's not.

2
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:13,720
Speaker 2: Hell yeah, man, you know, it's it's always cool, I

3
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:17,120
Speaker 2: think when you see guys like that around the league, right,

4
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 2: obviously a big personality, Uh, tons of success in Dallas,

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 2: you know, so you watch, you know, watching him, you know,

6
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 2: I think played against him a couple of times. But

7
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:33,440
Speaker 2: he's a funny guy, man, you know, just getting to

8
00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:38,680
Speaker 2: be around you know, it's you know, relationships things like that.

9
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 2: You know, it's a big part of the game and

10
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:43,199
Speaker 2: why you play the game. He's a fun guy to

11
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: play play cards with, hangout, you know, and you learn,

12
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,600
Speaker 2: you learn, you know about people, what makes them go,

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,400
Speaker 2: why they do certain things, you know, seeing them from

14
00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 2: them far and then you kind of learn more about him.

15
00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 1: That's always a cool experience to me. You know, so.

16
00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:02,280
Speaker 2: Probably sayme with you guys when you know, you guys

17
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 2: come in, you guys have seen them obviously media coverage,

18
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,399
Speaker 2: and then you get to see them for yourself. So

19
00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:13,600
Speaker 2: I think that's always enjoyable. Oh man, anything really you know,

20
00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,160
Speaker 2: you'll get to play too much, but uh, you know,

21
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:20,120
Speaker 2: the long road trips things like that.

22
00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 1: You know, we haven't stayed anywhere for a week really

23
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:24,760
Speaker 1: this year. Right.

24
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:28,920
Speaker 2: And last year though, we were with Arizona and all that,

25
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 2: you know, been to California. So uh yeah, that's what

26
00:01:33,880 --> 00:01:35,640
Speaker 2: you know, you talk to guys who get out of

27
00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:39,800
Speaker 2: the league. It's the relationships, hanging out, locker room stuff

28
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:39,959
Speaker 2: like that.

29
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,280
Speaker 1: It's a special place. This kind of good thing for

30
00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,640
Speaker 1: you guys the day.

31
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:50,600
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I think you got to do it

32
00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: some some bit every week, right, and obviously it's expedited

33
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 2: this week. You know, it's a quick turnaround. You know,

34
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,280
Speaker 2: done it a lot, understand it. I think it's a

35
00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 2: great opportunity coming up. Pittsburgh is a great, great place

36
00:02:04,040 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 2: to go play. You know, really good defense, very disciplined,

37
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,600
Speaker 2: a lot of experience, uh you know, really respect how

38
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,400
Speaker 2: how they're coached and how they do things, and you

39
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 2: can definitely see it and how they play the discipline

40
00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 2: and things like that. So it be a big challenge

41
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 2: always is uh, you know, there's always a great environment

42
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: going to play there.

43
00:02:25,440 --> 00:02:28,280
Speaker 3: How would you describe, you know, what you appreciate about

44
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:32,600
Speaker 3: playing in Pittsburgh gas the Steelers in much different circumstances

45
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:35,799
Speaker 3: in your past, but giving your appreciation for the history

46
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 3: of the game and you know, football environment that we

47
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,320

00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:40,800
Speaker 1: Yeah.

Speaker 2: I mean, you know, I've got a buddy going to

50
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,919
Speaker 2: the game. Uh, and you know, kind of he kind

51
00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:47,480
Speaker 2: of decided. I was like, man, you got to go.

52
00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: Like if you have the opportunity, it's a great, great experience,

53
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,679
Speaker 2: you know, to watch the game, how the city is

54
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 2: set up right there on the river, you know all that.

55
00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:57,799
Speaker 2: It is definitely a highlight to get to play there.

56
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,800
Speaker 2: I've always enjoyed it, you know, whether it's from you know,

57
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,880
Speaker 2: Renegade in the Fourth quarridor you know, and key moments

58
00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: things like that. You know, it's uh, you hate hearing

59
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:09,520
Speaker 2: it come on, but you know you always enjoy it

60
00:03:09,560 --> 00:03:12,560
Speaker 2: and looking back on it because it is it is

61
00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:15,520
Speaker 2: a historic place, historic franchise and and you know, like

62
00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:17,160
Speaker 2: I said, I really respect how they do things.

63
00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 1: And a lot of good good players.

64
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 2: Always have had good players, you know, and a guy

65
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,239
Speaker 2: like Heyward that you know just keeps going, great player,

66
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,840
Speaker 2: and you know it does all the right things you waste.

67
00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 4: Earlier this week, just the fact, you know, you guys

68
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 4: been a lot of close East, had a lot of

69
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 4: tough Injories.

70
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 1: Minor this year.

71
00:03:36,920 --> 00:03:38,960
Speaker 4: And I have seen you said time again and can

72
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,560
Speaker 4: perform to your standard, but how much of this season

73
00:03:41,640 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 4: just feels like the season? Hell, as far as the

74
00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 4: outside you control it back the wrong.

75
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 2: I mean, I think there's a lot of things we

76
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:51,080
Speaker 2: can't control. So uh, look, you sit there and make

77
00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,920
Speaker 2: every excuse if you really want to and anything in

78
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,120
Speaker 2: life and find excuses, find everything. But you know, I

79
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: think you really got to sit there and own it, right.

80
00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 2: You know, I'm the one out there playing, I'm the

81
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: one out there doing things, and you know, I think

82
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:06,640
Speaker 2: I think that's kind of you know, how you have

83
00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 2: to look at certain things, right, and I can sit

84
00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 2: there and say, oh, this happened, this happened, poor us,

85
00:04:12,080 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 2: poor us. All we were close, uh you know, which

86
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:17,280
Speaker 2: is truth. But at the end of the day, you

87
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 2: know it really doesn't matter, you know, and you know,

88
00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:23,280
Speaker 2: and you got to do it every week, so you know,

89
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 2: uh it's another opportunity, like I said, every week and uh,

90
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,960
Speaker 2: you know, to go out there execute against a good

91
00:04:30,960 --> 00:04:36,440
Speaker 2: football team. Yeah, I mean obviously, right, he's a great player.

92
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 2: I mean, you know, he's he's been a great player

93
00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 2: since you know he's coming to this league. Uh, you know,

94
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: going back to his rookie year, you know obviously that's

95
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,400
Speaker 2: you know, some spurts and you know, and then the

96
00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 2: last two years really you know, I would say a

97
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,719
Speaker 2: bulk of the work, right, he was a work of warsuit,

98
00:04:53,360 --> 00:04:55,640
Speaker 2: you know, however you want to say it. Uh, you know,

99
00:04:55,640 --> 00:04:58,080
Speaker 2: he's a great teammate. I love playing with Mamandre.

100
00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,200
Speaker 1: Uh.

101
00:04:59,400 --> 00:05:02,720
Speaker 2: You know, he's he just you know, he does a

102
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:05,200
Speaker 2: lot of things. He's explosive, he's tough, he runs hard,

103
00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:09,479
Speaker 2: and you know he's not like a you know, you

104
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 2: look at Luckily Garrett Blunt like he's huge, like, but.

105
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 1: Rondre runs like that at times.

106
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 2: But also it's quick and shifty and you know, he's

107
00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 2: just a great all around back and he's a great

108
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:22,320
Speaker 2: teammate and someone I've loved being being around. So you know,

109
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:26,040
Speaker 2: it's unfortunate and you know we'll miss him, and but

110
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,159
Speaker 2: you know, he's the kind of guy that's doing everything

111
00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 2: he can to get back out there as soon as

112
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:30,080
Speaker 2: he can.

113
00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 4: Well back he's just having.

114
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I think he runs very tough and

115
00:05:37,760 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: physical and.

116
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:41,799
Speaker 1: You know, you see that how he runs.

117
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:45,760
Speaker 2: You know, I think he's got great vision, ah, you know,

118
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,720
Speaker 2: good quickness. Uh, you know, I think he's just a tough,

119
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 2: physical back and uh, you know I've always thought that

120
00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 2: and you can tell you know, that's how he runs.

121
00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,480
Speaker 2: He runs tough, and you know those are the kind

122
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,000
Speaker 2: of things, right, I think you know where you're playing

123
00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,320
Speaker 2: ended a line like you know these three four yard gains,

124
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,120
Speaker 2: you know, or or if a guy's falling off, right,

125
00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:09,479
Speaker 2: just keep finishing, keep driving them, make him try to

126
00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 2: arm tackle him, because if you get them going, you're

127
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:13,760
Speaker 2: gonna gain yards.

128
00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,280
Speaker 1: And I think that's the biggest thing for us.

129
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 2: You know, get a guy like that going downhill cleanly,

130
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 2: you know, and maybe a guy's falling off, but that's

131
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,920
Speaker 2: gonna be a positive run, positive yards.

132
00:06:25,279 --> 00:06:27,960
Speaker 1: What does he do for the Fai played.

133
00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:32,080
Speaker 3: Another game under his belt bens last week to maybe

134
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 3: haven't playing that next step?

135
00:06:33,760 --> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I think you know we all gotta

136
00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,600
Speaker 2: take you know, next step offensively, right, Just too many

137
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,680
Speaker 2: missed opportunities, too many things like that, things we can

138
00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:44,280
Speaker 2: all do better.

139
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: Uh.

140
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,600
Speaker 2: You know, he could go out there and play lights out,

141
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 2: but if no one else plays lights there's not really

142
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,719
Speaker 2: gonna do much. So, uh, it's all eleven thoms and

143
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:56,279
Speaker 2: I believe that, you know, obviously he's the one with

144
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,039
Speaker 2: the ball in his hands and you know, has to

145
00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:01,599
Speaker 2: make the right decisions and things like that. But yeah,

146
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 2: offensive football, everbody's got to be on the same page

147
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 2: and everybody's got to be execute. You know, if he

148
00:07:06,800 --> 00:07:08,919
Speaker 2: drops back there makes a great read, perfect pass, but

149
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:11,080
Speaker 2: he's getting drilled, well, it doesn't really do much.

150
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: You know, so.

151
00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:16,280
Speaker 3: Offense that you had that one voice throughout the entire

152
00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:18,400
Speaker 3: game last week, it'll be the same voice with Bailey

153
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 3: the offense calling the cadence, preparing, and then when it

154
00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:23,120
Speaker 3: comes to Thursday, you know.

155
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: He'll be the same voice to Yeah.

156
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:26,960
Speaker 2: I mean, look, I think, like I said, I'll you know,

157
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 2: you always are rotating, right, because you never know what's

158
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,760
Speaker 2: going to happen. It's Zeke, you know, I'm sure you

159
00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:35,960
Speaker 2: didn't you know, know that Romando was going to get

160
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 2: hurt whatever, right or different guys is getting hurt. So

161
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,440
Speaker 2: everyone's got to be ready to go. Everyone's got to prepare.

162
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,280
Speaker 2: You got to prepare to play against or excuse me

163
00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,200
Speaker 2: with you know, other people, right, like you know someone

164
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:51,240
Speaker 2: It's a freak game and things happen. So you know,

165
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 2: I think always as much continuity as you can have,

166
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,120
Speaker 2: especially up front's good but you know, like I said,

167
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,520
Speaker 2: I think if you just work with one person the

168
00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 2: whole time and things like that you know and aren't

169
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:06,360
Speaker 2: used to working with different people, that can also be

170
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 2: you know, not good. But you know, obviously you know,

171
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,200
Speaker 2: as much reps as you can get, as much as

172
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:14,480
Speaker 2: you can see, especially in the short week, you know

173
00:08:14,480 --> 00:08:15,240
Speaker 2: it's beneficial.

174
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: So thanks, guys, appreciate
