The best way for 21 00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:20,479 Speaker 1: me to get to New York for the Bengals game 22 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: was to take the first flight out of Orlando on 23 00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:28,399 Speaker 1: Sunday morning at six am. Here's how that went. I 24 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:31,440 Speaker 1: got up at four ten, hopped in the shower, got 25 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: on an airport shuttle at four thirty, made it through security, 26 00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,400 Speaker 1: bought a cup of coffee, and was at the gate 27 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: at four point fifty. That's right. It took me all 28 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:47,160 Speaker 1: of forty minutes. There was nobody else on the shuttle, 29 00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: no traffic, no line at TSA no line at the 30 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,520 Speaker 1: coffee shop, and a short walk to the gate. I 31 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: felt like the usane bolt of travel. It was the 32 00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:02,919 Speaker 1: perfect start to turn out to be a great day.

That's more than seventy percent of 36 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,240 Speaker 1: the schedule, so the Bengals still have time to turn 37 00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 1: things around. But they've got to start stacking wins and 38 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: tonight to look for a big one in the Big 39 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 1: Apple as they face the New York Giants.

Burrow turns right, hands 56 00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:32,680 Speaker 1: it off. Moss popped hard, loses the ball, and the 57 00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: Giants appear to recover at the twenty two yard line. 58 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,440 Speaker 1: They do Jones under center, He takes the snaff, he 59 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 1: hands it to Tracy and he's into the end zone. 60 00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: Knifing through the left side of his offensive line.

Four defensive linemen in 72 00:04:25,480 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 1: the game in a single high safety for Cincinnati Jones 73 00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 1: and the shotgun he catches on fourth and two, he's 74 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,640 Speaker 1: back to throw his pass broken up by DJ Turner, 75 00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: and the Bengals stop the Giants on fourth and two 76 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 1: with three to zero one to go. It's an empty 77 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: backfield for Cincinnati. On third down and twelve. Burrow catches 78 00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: the shotgun snap against a four man rush, begins scrambling left, 79 00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 1: squares his shoulders throws down field, caught by u USh 80 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,840 Speaker 1: a first down in Giants territory. He's out of bounds 81 00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: at the thirty seven yard line. He beat Pinnock and 82 00:05:02,560 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: Burrow delivered a strike to continue the drive. The Bengals 83 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:08,559 Speaker 1: line up in a pistol formation with Chase Brown behind 84 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:11,039 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. All goes in motion. They give it to 85 00:05:11,120 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 1: Chase Brown. He's got the first nine more check the 86 00:05:13,640 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: middle of the field. Ten five rolls into the end zone. 87 00:05:17,720 --> 00:05:23,840 Speaker 1: Touchdown Bengals with one fifty two to go, and that 88 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,440 Speaker 1: his coffin nails. 89 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,480 Speaker 2: Bam, bam bam. 90 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:33,520 Speaker 1: Burrow takes a knee and that will do it. The 91 00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 1: Bengals get a big win in the Big Apple, and 92 00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 1: defense is the difference. Lose crew getting it done tonight, 93 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,839 Speaker 1: holding the Giants to just one touchdown as the Bengals 94 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:50,600 Speaker 1: win at seventeen to seven. So, after throwing five touchdown 95 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: passes last week, Joe Burrow didn't throw any this week. 96 00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,200 Speaker 1: He was nineteen for twenty eight. That's sixty eight percent 97 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,080 Speaker 1: for two hundred and eight yards, no touchdowns and no 98 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:04,919 Speaker 1: picks for a passer rating of eighty nine point six. 99 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 3: Missing throws I normally make you know, I felt like 100 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 3: I let the pressure get to me a little bit. 101 00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 3: You know, I was able to settle down there in 102 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: the second half and kind of find a rhythm. But 103 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:18,919 Speaker 3: the first half, you know, I didn't feel like I 104 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:20,600 Speaker 3: was in rhythm at all. I felt like I was 105 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:24,240 Speaker 3: getting happy feed in the pocket. I just didn't feel 106 00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 3: like anything was going our way. So wash the tape 107 00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 3: and see where I could have improved and been better. 108 00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 3: I know I could have been, So that's disappointing. But 109 00:06:33,120 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 3: it was nice to see our defense step up and 110 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:35,400 Speaker 3: get us a swind to day. 111 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:38,440 Speaker 1: Burrow didn't have to have a big night. The defense 112 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:41,599 Speaker 1: held the Giants to five for fifteen on third down 113 00:06:41,640 --> 00:06:46,080 Speaker 1: conversions and didn't allow a single play that gained more 114 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:47,239 Speaker 1: than fifteen yards. 115 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was great to see our defense step up today. 116 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,479 Speaker 3: That was exciting to see. You know, we got healthier 117 00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 3: up front. You could see that that really affected the 118 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:01,680 Speaker 3: pass rush. They were getting a lot of pressure on 119 00:07:01,800 --> 00:07:04,400 Speaker 3: the day. I think our our dbs were sticky in 120 00:07:04,440 --> 00:07:08,520 Speaker 3: coverage all day. You know, Mike Hilton makes some big plays, 121 00:07:08,520 --> 00:07:13,320 Speaker 3: big tackles, blitzing and in coverage, so that was great 122 00:07:13,320 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 3: to get him back and We know what we're capable 123 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 3: of on offense. We've proven it all year. Uh, this 124 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 3: was not one of those nights, But you're gonna have 125 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,680 Speaker 3: some of those nights. That's you know, it's tough to 126 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 3: go out every single week and put up thirty. It's 127 00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 3: you know, there's a lot of good defens there's a 128 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 3: lot of good coaches and a lot of good players 129 00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:36,680 Speaker 3: on the other side of the ball. So that's that's 130 00:07:36,680 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 3: what we expect out of ourselves. But you know, it's 131 00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:42,960 Speaker 3: probably not going to be like that every week. And 132 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:45,800 Speaker 3: so just like every week, we're gonna watch the tape, 133 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 3: come back to practice on Wednesday and get better. 134 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 4: How badly did you guys need a win tonight? 135 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: Yeah? We really needed it. 136 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 3: Uh you know, I don't want to say we would 137 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,480 Speaker 3: have been out of it if we had lost, but uh, 138 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 3: we'd be we'd be scratched for the rest of the year. 139 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 3: We still really are. But it's good to get a win. 140 00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:10,200 Speaker 3: Great to see our defense step up like that. They've 141 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 3: taken some heat the last couple weeks, but they played 142 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:13,400 Speaker 3: awesome today. 143 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: After allowing forty one points and last week's lost to Baltimore, 144 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 1: the defense held a players only meeting this week and 145 00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,240 Speaker 1: then went out and did the heavy lifting in a 146 00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: ten point win. Mike Hilton, who missed last week's game 147 00:08:25,880 --> 00:08:29,040 Speaker 1: due to injury, made several key plays against the Giants, 148 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:32,880 Speaker 1: including a pass deflection that ended a drive on fourth 149 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:35,640 Speaker 1: and two. I caught up with Mike in front of 150 00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 1: his locker. Mike, I'm going. 151 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 2: To quote you. 152 00:08:39,320 --> 00:08:41,280 Speaker 1: You said we need to uphold our end of the 153 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: bargain earlier this week. 154 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:44,800 Speaker 2: You more than get that tonight. We did. 155 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 5: You know, it was a good opponent in New York, 156 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:50,959 Speaker 5: and for us to to turn things around, we just 157 00:08:50,960 --> 00:08:53,160 Speaker 5: gotta keep building. This was a good first step of stone. 158 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,440 Speaker 5: But we got the division game next week and we gotta 159 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 5: be ready for it. 160 00:08:56,320 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: This is one of those games where so many different 161 00:08:58,480 --> 00:09:01,320 Speaker 1: guys made big plays on deef and DJ made several 162 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: Tray had sex. You and DJ Turner made big plays 163 00:09:04,600 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 1: on fourth down. It was a total defensive team effort. 164 00:09:07,960 --> 00:09:09,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, everybody kind of just took hold of what I 165 00:09:09,920 --> 00:09:11,920 Speaker 5: said that in that team meeting up and that players 166 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,920 Speaker 5: only mean. You know, everybody do their job. We know 167 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,720 Speaker 5: who we are as a defense, and we can make plays. 168 00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:18,079 Speaker 5: So when everybody's locked in, focused you know, we're a 169 00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:18,680 Speaker 5: hard defense. 170 00:09:18,960 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: How satisfying is that to have a victory that really 171 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: was determined by the defense. 172 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:25,280 Speaker 2: I was big for us. 173 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:28,720 Speaker 5: We've been here, how much the outside knows about our defense, 174 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 5: So this was a big stepping stone for us. And man, 175 00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 5: we're gonna we're gonna be excited about it, but you 176 00:09:33,559 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 5: think about it, we gotta continue to get better. So 177 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 5: we're gonna we're gonna enjoy this one to night, but 178 00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:38,320 Speaker 5: then we'll be ready for next week. 179 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:41,720 Speaker 1: Their passing attack did very little. I thought the secondary 180 00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:43,320 Speaker 1: was outstanding tonight. 181 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, we were. We limited their explosives. 182 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 5: You know, if you make a teams check it down 183 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 5: and run the ball, you know you're winning as a. 184 00:09:49,200 --> 00:09:50,720 Speaker 2: Defense, and we did that today. 185 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 5: And well, think about we got out of the field 186 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:54,439 Speaker 5: early on third downs. That that kind of settings on 187 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,800 Speaker 5: doors throughout the whole game and just kind of continued throughout. 188 00:09:57,840 --> 00:10:00,439 Speaker 1: What was your opinion of Crazy Legs Burrow the opening 189 00:10:00,520 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 1: touchdown and run of the games? 190 00:10:01,880 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 2: Oh? 191 00:10:02,120 --> 00:10:03,599 Speaker 5: Man, it was good to see him over note like that. 192 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,360 Speaker 5: Obviously he's not as athletic as some of the other 193 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,280 Speaker 5: quarterbacks around the league, but shows he can stay for 194 00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:11,320 Speaker 5: OUTLM being all right, two. 195 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,720 Speaker 1: And four, big road win tonight. Where does this put 196 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 1: the team going forward? 197 00:10:15,760 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 5: Oh, Niggers is a confidence. Obviously it's not where one. 198 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 5: We're still under five hundred, but we know what's in 199 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 5: front of us. An we got to take this one 200 00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:24,200 Speaker 5: win a grain of salt. 201 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 2: Enjoy it.

Fortunately, Chase Brown's 208 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: fumble got knocked out of bounce, allowing the Bengals to 209 00:10:45,320 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: maintain possession, and on the next play he ran thirty 210 00:10:48,679 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: yards for the clinching td Congratulations on a great win tonight, 211 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 1: A win that you put the exclamation point on with 212 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:00,559 Speaker 1: that thirty yard touchdown run at the end. How did 213 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: that one feel crossing it in the end zone? 214 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 6: Honestly, like, not as good as you would expect. I'm 215 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 6: not gonna lie. 216 00:11:06,800 --> 00:11:09,439 Speaker 7: We we just strive to be perfect. There's a lot 217 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 7: of preparation that goes in every single week. So I 218 00:11:12,679 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 7: mean the fumble right before that. You know, I'm glad that, 219 00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:17,640 Speaker 7: you know I could come back. 220 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 6: And respond, But I mean, at the end of the day, 221 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:22,920 Speaker 6: we got to play a lot better than that, you 222 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 6: know what I mean. So I mean, I'm just glad 223 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 6: we're leaving with the win. But at the end of 224 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:30,040 Speaker 6: the day, like messy and we'd rather it be much cleaner. 225 00:11:30,120 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 1: No, the touchdown came on the very next play in 226 00:11:34,120 --> 00:11:38,600 Speaker 1: your mind where you determined to do something just positive, just. 227 00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: Just respond in a positive way. 228 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,599 Speaker 6: I mean, rule number one, can't have fumbles at the 229 00:11:44,679 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 6: end of the game where you know, we're trying to 230 00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:48,080 Speaker 6: put points on the board and seal it. 231 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 2: So that's where my mind's at right now. But at 232 00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:53,880 Speaker 2: the end of the day, is a good win. Defense 233 00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 2: played their ass off. 234 00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 6: Offense, we did enough to put points on the board, 235 00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 6: so obviously we're gonna come out next week motive to 236 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:01,120 Speaker 6: do better. 237 00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,360 Speaker 1: As that ball was trickling out of bounds, did it 238 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: feel like it took forever too, Yeah. 239 00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 6: I'll just try to punch it out out of bounds. 240 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 8: I'm like, just get out of get out of bounds. 241 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:11,960 Speaker 2: I'm not going to say what I have to say that. 242 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:13,040 Speaker 2: That's just whats on my mind. 243 00:12:13,400 --> 00:12:16,120 Speaker 1: So the offense has been cooking. It wasn't the case tonight, 244 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:19,000 Speaker 1: but the defense came through with its best performance of 245 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:19,280 Speaker 1: the year. 246 00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 8: That's you know, that's that's what we need to do 247 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 8: to get the win today. But at the end of 248 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,360 Speaker 8: the day, we're gonna have to play a lot better 249 00:12:27,440 --> 00:12:30,480 Speaker 8: to take out these division opponings, especially next week. 250 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 2: So you know, focus on Cleveland and let's get this 251 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:35,839 Speaker 2: thing rolling. 252 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,760 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow's forty seven yard touchdown run, longest of his career. 253 00:12:39,840 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 1: As he's streaking down the field, what'd you think he's gone, 254 00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: He's gone. 255 00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,240 Speaker 2: He had space, Joe, Joe. I think Joe said he. 256 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 7: Was a sneaky athletic, but he's athletic and he's fast, 257 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 7: so I wasn't even surprised. 258 00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 2: You just finished a good run. 259 00:12:53,040 --> 00:12:54,040 Speaker 1: Congrats and a nice win. 260 00:12:54,160 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 2: Thanks. 261 00:12:55,720 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 1: Round finished with ten carries for fifty three yards. Burrow 262 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: is actually the Bengal leading rusher with fifty five The 263 00:13:02,640 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: Bengals Booth Podcast is brought to you by pay Corps, 264 00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:08,920 Speaker 1: proud to be the Bengals official HR software provider by 265 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 1: Alta Fiber future Proof Fiber Internet designed to elevate your home, business, 266 00:13:12,800 --> 00:13:15,920 Speaker 1: and community to a new level and by Kettering Health 267 00:13:16,280 --> 00:13:18,800 Speaker 1: the best care for the best fans.

Now, let's 269 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:25,199 Speaker 1: hear from Zach Taylor as he spoke with Dave Lapham 270 00:13:25,240 --> 00:13:25,840 Speaker 1: after the game. 271 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 4: That wasn't easy. That's a damn good defensive football team 272 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 4: out there, men. Their front is legit. 273 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 9: Yeah, they lead the league in sacks, and we could 274 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 9: see it on tape. It shows up a little bit 275 00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:41,439 Speaker 9: more when you're there in person. They got great personnel. 276 00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:43,400 Speaker 9: They do a real good job playing together. Coordinator does 277 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:45,800 Speaker 9: a good job. But I thought in the second half 278 00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 9: of our offense rebounded the right way, you know, aside 279 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:50,319 Speaker 9: from the turnover, We're able to drive the ball down 280 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 9: the field, gets to the one touchdown called back and 281 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,720 Speaker 9: then and then go finish off with another touchdown. 282 00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:55,440 Speaker 2: Was good to see. 283 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 4: How big was it to get those two fourth down conversions? 284 00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,800 Speaker 4: They converted three. I mean, they're aggressive. It was four 285 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:03,960 Speaker 4: down territory. It seemed like everywhere in any time during 286 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 4: the football game. But to get two like that, it's 287 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 4: like two takeaways. It's turnovers, you know. 288 00:14:08,600 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 9: So we got the hit and the pick, and then 289 00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 9: we got two more on the turnovers and downs, and 290 00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:15,200 Speaker 9: really pleased with how our defense played. You know, it 291 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,880 Speaker 9: was they did a great job keeping us in the 292 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,600 Speaker 9: games that we could go finish it off on offense. 293 00:14:20,520 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 4: Third and eighteen, Joe Burrow runs for forty seven yard touchdown, 294 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,760 Speaker 4: Third and twelve completion d Yosi for twenty nine yards 295 00:14:27,160 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 4: and then Chase has that thirty yard touchdown. You had 296 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 4: explosive plays, plays of twenty four yards and more, I 297 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:37,800 Speaker 4: think by five different guys. It was a grind against 298 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:40,400 Speaker 4: the Giants, but when you had to, those explosives showed 299 00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:41,200 Speaker 4: up with you, didn't they. 300 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 9: Yeah, grind doesn't begin to describe it. So but again, 301 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,360 Speaker 9: we just guys, our superstars found ways to make plays 302 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 9: in really difficult situations. I thought our aligned did a 303 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,920 Speaker 9: really good job holding up. I know, their sacks, and 304 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 9: they're always going to take the blame for that, That's 305 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 9: not always the case. That was on all of us 306 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,800 Speaker 9: coaches and players, and uh, just just pleased with the 307 00:15:01,840 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 9: way they hung in there and made plays at the 308 00:15:03,120 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 9: right moments. 309 00:15:04,000 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 4: You know, it looked at times like their coverage was 310 00:15:06,400 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 4: really good. Were they doing anything coverage wise that wasn't anticipated. 311 00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 4: I mean, it looked like they were playing some decent 312 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 4: zones mixing it up. 313 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:13,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, they mix it up, you know. 314 00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 9: And that's again when you're not in a great rhythm 315 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 9: on second and four and second and three like we 316 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 9: have been over the season. We're more seconds to elevens and 317 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 9: twelves and they've got the advantage. And we got to 318 00:15:22,160 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 9: do a great job countering and just really struggled early 319 00:15:25,240 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 9: in the game to find a good rhythm to be 320 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:27,000 Speaker 9: able to count that. 321 00:15:27,280 --> 00:15:29,680 Speaker 4: How about your defensive football team. I think they probably 322 00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 4: had close to seventy snaps when all of a sudden done, 323 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 4: and I don't think they had three hundred yards offense 324 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,160 Speaker 4: and seven points. I mean much Beligne defense stepped up 325 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 4: today any great. 326 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 9: I mean they kept the backs to three yards of carry. 327 00:15:39,960 --> 00:15:42,440 Speaker 9: I know Daniel Jones got fifty or sixty, but they 328 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,160 Speaker 9: kept the backs to you know, about a three point 329 00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,040 Speaker 9: zero average. And you know, I thought they did a 330 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:49,840 Speaker 9: good job in the past game overall, and so again 331 00:15:49,880 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 9: to get those three turnovers essentially holding the two miss 332 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 9: field goals. Really probably the way the defense played it. 333 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,640 Speaker 4: Looked like you guys were attacking the bubble. You know 334 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 4: that that linebacker area a little bit looked like you 335 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:00,960 Speaker 4: were pulling line in. Some tight ends were rolling in there. 336 00:16:01,400 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 4: Chase finally hit one, you know, up the gut there 337 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 4: on that bubble, and boy, I mean when he hits it, 338 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:07,960 Speaker 4: man looks like his head's going to hit the goal post. 339 00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:08,880 Speaker 2: Well that's the way it goes. 340 00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 9: You know, if you can if you can play with 341 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 9: the lead and be able to stick with some of those, 342 00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 9: then eventually the dam breaks. And on that play, the 343 00:16:15,560 --> 00:16:17,920 Speaker 9: dam broke. And uh, that was a great adjustment by 344 00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 9: Frank Pollock. That wasn't a plan we had a play 345 00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:21,520 Speaker 9: we had in the play this week. It's when we 346 00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:24,200 Speaker 9: carried in previous weeks and run a lot. But I 347 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:25,560 Speaker 9: thought that was a great job by Frank, and the 348 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,600 Speaker 9: players handled it the right way before the drive being 349 00:16:27,640 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 9: away that that was going to come up and executed 350 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:30,240 Speaker 9: it really well. 351 00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,160 Speaker 4: So your defense, I mean, there was a sixteen play 352 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:36,000 Speaker 4: seventy nine yard touchdown drive they had. The next possession 353 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,600 Speaker 4: was like eleven plays. They missed a field goal, and 354 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,720 Speaker 4: you know they started eating the clock up their third 355 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,760 Speaker 4: in the NFL in time of possession. Their defense plays 356 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:47,400 Speaker 4: you know, sound football. Their offense has that ability to 357 00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 4: control the football. But I thought your team today showed 358 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 4: their condition their football conditioning. 359 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,480 Speaker 9: Yeah, and not to mention they started the third half 360 00:16:56,560 --> 00:16:59,440 Speaker 9: the second half, got a turnover on downs and we 361 00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:01,160 Speaker 9: fumbled three plays later and they had to go back 362 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 9: out there again. So we just finished. You know, that 363 00:17:04,920 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 9: was what was borning in the fourth quarter. This football 364 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 9: team finished and that was good for us to see. 365 00:17:09,040 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 9: We needed that moment. I'm going forward. 366 00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,440 Speaker 4: Was that your mantra all week was that one of 367 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:14,200 Speaker 4: the things that you guys talked about was finishing. 368 00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,199 Speaker 9: That's something well we always talk about that, you know. 369 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,159 Speaker 9: And so again this is the NFL. Everybody knows you 370 00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:20,120 Speaker 9: got to be able to finish games. But just part 371 00:17:20,119 --> 00:17:21,679 Speaker 9: of the way, the guys stuck together this week and 372 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 9: found a way to get a big win on the 373 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 9: road in primetime. 374 00:17:24,119 --> 00:17:26,840 Speaker 4: So your offense has been playing well for a month. 375 00:17:26,880 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 4: I mean, this is a little bit of a blip, 376 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:29,920 Speaker 4: but I mean I have every confidence in the world 377 00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,120 Speaker 4: that you know it's going to be fine. If your 378 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 4: defense continues to play like this, that complimentary football could 379 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 4: be very complimentary. 380 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:37,679 Speaker 9: We know to have a team we have we just 381 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 9: got to go go show the world. We don't have 382 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,880 Speaker 9: to prove it to ourselves. We know, and no better 383 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 9: opportunity than to go on the road and find a 384 00:17:44,800 --> 00:17:45,719 Speaker 9: way to get a division win. 385 00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 2: Next week. 386 00:17:46,640 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 4: Is Joe okay? Borrow's okay? 387 00:17:48,320 --> 00:17:49,120 Speaker 2: Everything looks good. 388 00:17:49,520 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 4: Tell you man, he what's he run to forty? And 389 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 4: he was looking fast on that forty seven yard sprint. 390 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:56,719 Speaker 4: I mean he got through that pile on and it 391 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:59,120 Speaker 4: was pretty impressive. I mean the red seed parted literally. 392 00:17:59,119 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 4: I don't know if they had a sign I'm a breakdown, 393 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:02,760 Speaker 4: but I mean there was nobody within sight. 394 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,399 Speaker 9: This forty time is fast enough. 395 00:18:05,080 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 2: I hear that. 396 00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,880 Speaker 1: Giants quarterback Daniel Jones ran for fifty six yards. That's 397 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 1: one more than Borrow, but his passer rating was in 398 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: the fifties and his all time record in primetime games 399 00:18:17,320 --> 00:18:22,480 Speaker 1: fell to one and fourteen, including one and eleven at home. 400 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:26,000 Speaker 1: Up next for the Bengals a road game in Cleveland 401 00:18:26,119 --> 00:18:29,359 Speaker 1: against the one in five Browns, who lost to Philadelphia 402 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:33,400 Speaker 1: on Sunday twenty to sixteen. The Browns have not scored 403 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,479 Speaker 1: twenty points or had two hundred passing yards in a 404 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:42,960 Speaker 1: single game this season. Now time for the radio guys recap. 405 00:18:44,280 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 2: Lap. 406 00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: The Bengals defense did exactly what Mike Hilton said they 407 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 1: needed to do. They upheld their end of the bargain 408 00:18:50,359 --> 00:18:53,199 Speaker 1: and more a great defensive performance tonight. 409 00:18:53,280 --> 00:18:53,879 Speaker 2: It really was. 410 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 4: I mean, you hold an NFL team to seven points, 411 00:18:56,760 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 4: that's remarkable. You got to win that football game, and 412 00:19:00,680 --> 00:19:03,200 Speaker 4: it looked dicey for a while, but they did get 413 00:19:03,200 --> 00:19:06,399 Speaker 4: that victory. But I'd say they probably ended up with 414 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:09,239 Speaker 4: at least seventy snaps during the course of that football game, 415 00:19:09,280 --> 00:19:11,240 Speaker 4: and I'm not sure they had three hundred yards offense 416 00:19:11,800 --> 00:19:15,879 Speaker 4: and only seven points. So you know, defense bent but 417 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:19,119 Speaker 4: didn't break. I mean, the impressive part of it was. 418 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:24,320 Speaker 4: The impressive part of it was when you know, they 419 00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 4: go on that sixteen play, seventy nine yeard touchdown drive 420 00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 4: and the next drive is eleven plays and they end 421 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,399 Speaker 4: up missing a field goal. But I mean that that 422 00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 4: football conditioning deal is a big deal, and they stepped up. 423 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 4: They stepped up large and kept them out of the 424 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,880 Speaker 4: end zone. I mean, Jones was a good athlete. He 425 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:47,400 Speaker 4: made his share of plays, but I think the defense, 426 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:50,719 Speaker 4: the offense obviously struggled against the New York Giants defense 427 00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 4: and that defensive front. But I think they're going to 428 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 4: rebound and hopefully the Bengals defense will build off of 429 00:19:56,920 --> 00:19:59,600 Speaker 4: this and start playing that comproment in football that we've 430 00:19:59,600 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 4: gotten to see him in the Joe Burrow ear and 431 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:05,159 Speaker 4: no more wasted efforts from Joe Burrow. The defense steps 432 00:20:05,200 --> 00:20:07,239 Speaker 4: up and they solidify those games and win it. 433 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: I thought it was BJ Hill's best game in the 434 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:11,560 Speaker 1: Bengals uniform. I know you talked to him after the game. 435 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 1: Big deflection his college roommate intercepted inside the ten yard line, 436 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: and some other big plays as well for BJ. 437 00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:22,600 Speaker 4: No question, and I asked him about you know, I said, 438 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:24,680 Speaker 4: you know you were drafted here in the third round 439 00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:26,639 Speaker 4: in twenty eighteen. Was it emotional? 440 00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 2: He said, yeah. 441 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:29,639 Speaker 4: I kind of had to control my emotions a little bit. 442 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,399 Speaker 4: You know, I didn't want to. I'm thankful for the 443 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,240 Speaker 4: opportunity that they gave me, but I didn't want to. 444 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:39,400 Speaker 4: You know, I needed to compose myself and play under 445 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 4: control a little bit. But he gave a tremendous effort. 446 00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:43,560 Speaker 4: And I said, how many times do you think you 447 00:20:43,560 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 4: get held? I said, I saw at least three, because 448 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,679 Speaker 4: me and they weren't calling anything out there, but he 449 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 4: thought I thought he was a huge factor. Trey Henderson 450 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 4: came off the edge for you know, a couple of 451 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:56,560 Speaker 4: sacks as well that were big in the football game. 452 00:20:56,560 --> 00:20:59,080 Speaker 4: But I think on a snap by snap basis, bj 453 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 4: Hill was the guy that the charge. 454 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,880 Speaker 1: For what it's worth, this officiating crew, with Carl Cheffer's 455 00:21:03,920 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: in charge, last in the NFL in penalties called per 456 00:21:07,560 --> 00:21:11,040 Speaker 1: game coming in, so no big surprise they didn't throw 457 00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:14,280 Speaker 1: a bunch of flags. Let's talk about the pass rush 458 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:17,480 Speaker 1: for the Giants and the problems the Bengals had protecting 459 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. The Giants were number one in the NFL 460 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,399 Speaker 1: coming in in sacks, so it's not like this was 461 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:27,120 Speaker 1: an unusual experience for them. They won up front quite 462 00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:27,840 Speaker 1: a bit in this game. 463 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, they did. I mean twenty two sacks in their 464 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 4: first you know, their first five football games and sixteen 465 00:21:34,440 --> 00:21:36,560 Speaker 4: in the last three. So you had this four twenty 466 00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,800 Speaker 4: in the last four games, I mean, averaging five sacks 467 00:21:38,840 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 4: of game. So it was kind of another day at 468 00:21:40,359 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 4: the office with what they were doing out there. At 469 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 4: the Bengals, they're very, very gifted with the way they 470 00:21:44,880 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 4: twist and the thing that I always used to struggle 471 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:51,640 Speaker 4: with as a former offensive lineman, is when they are 472 00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:55,000 Speaker 4: real tight, you know, they the penetrator and the looper 473 00:21:55,119 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 4: doesn't you know, go out into the loopers just right 474 00:21:57,400 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 4: off his butt is tight, and that caused that causes problems. 475 00:22:01,240 --> 00:22:03,320 Speaker 4: I mean, there can you can get some penetration almost 476 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 4: from the looper as a result of that. And they 477 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,400 Speaker 4: were really good at it. They do an unbelievable job 478 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 4: as rushers, and they got good rush off the edge 479 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 4: as well. I mean, you know, they they had more 480 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 4: than one person that was causing causing problems in the pocket, 481 00:22:17,440 --> 00:22:19,480 Speaker 4: and they were even though they were looping and stunning 482 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:23,640 Speaker 4: and everything, they kept their lanes pretty pretty intact. And Joe, 483 00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 4: you know, was trying to, you know, create an extent 484 00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:29,240 Speaker 4: and climb the pocket and do different kinds of things. 485 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 4: But I think the other part of it is that sometimes, 486 00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:35,320 Speaker 4: you know, when he wanted to get rid of the football, 487 00:22:35,320 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 4: there was nowhere to get rid of it. And they 488 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:39,760 Speaker 4: were running some pretty good zone coverages. They were mixing 489 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 4: it up down there on the back end a little. 490 00:22:42,080 --> 00:22:44,280 Speaker 4: And uh so it was a challenge for the Bengals. 491 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:46,159 Speaker 1: You said before the game, he thought there might be 492 00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:48,639 Speaker 1: opportunities for t Higgins to have a good game. You 493 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:51,639 Speaker 1: were right. Seven targets, seven catches, seventy seven yards, A 494 00:22:51,640 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 1: lot of sevens came up lucky for T Higgins. 495 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:55,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. 496 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 4: Usually after Jamara has a big game, the next opponent, 497 00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:02,880 Speaker 4: you know, go to some sort of a bracket coverage 498 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:05,119 Speaker 4: or cloud coverage or whatever you want to call it. 499 00:23:05,160 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 4: You know, they'll have a corner with a safety over 500 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:10,120 Speaker 4: the top and maybe you know, Buzz the linebacker underneath 501 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,159 Speaker 4: with a corner. They'll they'll change things up. And they 502 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:16,399 Speaker 4: were moving Jamar around and even had him in the 503 00:23:16,440 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 4: backfield some a little shovel pac that he had. Try 504 00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,920 Speaker 4: to get him the football any any way you can still, 505 00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,680 Speaker 4: you know, that's that's the thing. If they're going to 506 00:23:25,760 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 4: do that with Jamar, they have to deal with Tea 507 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,200 Speaker 4: And if you can hold up in man coverage, god 508 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:32,119 Speaker 4: bless you, but he's going to make some plays on you. 509 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 1: Joe has described himself, Joe Burrow that is, as sneaky 510 00:23:35,680 --> 00:23:38,520 Speaker 1: athletic in the past. He was more than sneaky on 511 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: that first forty seven yard touchdown drive. It's the longest 512 00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:41,879 Speaker 1: of his career. 513 00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean that run was incredible, and it was 514 00:23:45,440 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 4: you know, he just saw the thing open up. You know, 515 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 4: it wasn't a quarterback draw. It was, you know, just 516 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,080 Speaker 4: he saw an opportunity to get up the football field 517 00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:57,480 Speaker 4: and get it done. And I think once he broke 518 00:23:57,520 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 4: the line of scrimmage, I think he was probably like, 519 00:23:59,359 --> 00:24:02,200 Speaker 4: oh my god, and I can't believe. And there had 520 00:24:02,200 --> 00:24:05,440 Speaker 4: to be some sort of a breakdown somewhere. Somebody ended 521 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:07,920 Speaker 4: up two guys ended up doubling one receiver and left 522 00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,960 Speaker 4: a gaping, you know, cavity that Joe took advantage of 523 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 4: or some such thing. I'd have to have to take 524 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:15,440 Speaker 4: a look at the at the tape of it. But 525 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 4: it was impressive. And I asked, Zach, you know, what's 526 00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:22,399 Speaker 4: Joe's forty times? And he goes fast enough? And it 527 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 4: certainly was. I mean, get inside that pieline is a 528 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 4: huge play. 529 00:24:25,800 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 2: All right. 530 00:24:26,200 --> 00:24:28,919 Speaker 1: Put the win in perspective two and four with a 531 00:24:28,960 --> 00:24:30,840 Speaker 1: road game at Cleveland coming up. 532 00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:34,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, and can get a division win. Climbed to three 533 00:24:34,000 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 4: and four, and you know, and then all of a sudden, 534 00:24:37,880 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 4: you're not You're not in the dregs anymore. You're starting 535 00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:42,760 Speaker 4: to climb your way out of a little bit of 536 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 4: a hole that you dug if you had not gotten 537 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,440 Speaker 4: this done and go one and five, that that would 538 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:51,760 Speaker 4: have been almost ridiculously hard to dig your way out of. 539 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 4: But I think this football team has enough talent, enough grit, 540 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 4: and enough poise and everything, and it takes to one 541 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:03,480 Speaker 4: game at a time to make a little run and 542 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 4: get back where they need to be. 543 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:08,159 Speaker 1: Here's an invitation to join lapp in me for the 544 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,959 Speaker 1: Bengals Game Plan show on Wednesday night.

And through his life. He was in the 558 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:06,679 Speaker 10: Korean more as an army ranger. He was in a 559 00:26:06,720 --> 00:26:11,119 Speaker 10: coast guard before that. Then he was head of the 560 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 10: National Guard. Once he got into Las Vegas and became 561 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:18,320 Speaker 10: a judge, and his legacy was more than what he 562 00:26:18,400 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 10: did in the courtroom. More what he did in the community, 563 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 10: built in people, making sure that everybody was treated equally, 564 00:26:25,119 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 10: and that is known throughout the historical Las Vegas area 565 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:34,920 Speaker 10: where they celebrate those figures from the past. His legacy 566 00:26:34,960 --> 00:26:37,560 Speaker 10: is so big, it's more than I could say, but 567 00:26:37,640 --> 00:26:40,399 Speaker 10: it lived strong today. My brother is a lawyer and 568 00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 10: down in Las Vegas and he hears so much more 569 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:47,679 Speaker 10: of how great a man that the we called the 570 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:51,320 Speaker 10: Judge was, And every single day it's something new popman 571 00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:53,800 Speaker 10: up here, like we just didn't know because you know, 572 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:56,720 Speaker 10: as a family man, you could get the one side 573 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,919 Speaker 10: of it. You don't get see behind the scenes of 574 00:26:59,040 --> 00:27:02,639 Speaker 10: what he impact on people's lives throughout the community. 575 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:07,080 Speaker 1: I've read that his motto was I can and I will, 576 00:27:07,840 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 1: and you have taken those words to heart. As a kid, 577 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 1: you had learning challenges, including dyslexia. Kids can be cruel 578 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:17,400 Speaker 1: how difficult was it for you? 579 00:27:18,080 --> 00:27:20,640 Speaker 10: I didn't know. I just actually tast twenty one, so 580 00:27:21,240 --> 00:27:23,680 Speaker 10: you just had to figure out different ways of learning 581 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 10: at that time. There wasn't heavy testing back then, especially 582 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:31,560 Speaker 10: where I was, so it's taking the challenges as they were. 583 00:27:32,560 --> 00:27:34,479 Speaker 10: But I had a great support system with my family. 584 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 10: My dad was very big involved in that. He read 585 00:27:38,040 --> 00:27:39,880 Speaker 10: I'm here today is because of him. Reason I got 586 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 10: I was in college and continue to do that because 587 00:27:42,680 --> 00:27:45,520 Speaker 10: of him and effort he put into it. Like I said, 588 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 10: back in the early nineties, nobody really wanted to discuss 589 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:50,639 Speaker 10: and he was head on on at and it says 590 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 10: from near it was a lot of tutors at, a 591 00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,760 Speaker 10: lot of people helping, from teachers making sure I was 592 00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 10: picking it up because everyone learns a different way. And 593 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:02,520 Speaker 10: if we and known back then that had dyslexia probably 594 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 10: been a little bit easier. But as the process went 595 00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:09,200 Speaker 10: on through middle elementary, middle school, and high school, it 596 00:28:09,240 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 10: got better and better and better. So by the time 597 00:28:11,600 --> 00:28:15,760 Speaker 10: I understood that I had dyslexia, it's like, okay, it 598 00:28:15,800 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 10: makes sense now, you know when the words jump here 599 00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:21,960 Speaker 10: and there, But I've never matter asked them. My brother 600 00:28:22,080 --> 00:28:24,440 Speaker 10: was asking me one day I would tall a couple 601 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 10: of years ago, he said, how does it? How is 602 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:29,119 Speaker 10: it having? I just don't pay attention to it, like 603 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 10: everything normal to me. So he said something I wanted 604 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 10: to know. But I give hope to people that have 605 00:28:36,160 --> 00:28:40,120 Speaker 10: This challenge is not a disease. It's not something to 606 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 10: drop your head about it. It's something. Yeah, it might 607 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 10: take a little bit longer to read a book. Three 608 00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 10: test messages. I learned to embrace what it is. And 609 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 10: and when I hear story from parents or young adults, 610 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 10: asked me how that I got through, And I was like, 611 00:28:55,240 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 10: is this a challenge? It that you have to take on? 612 00:28:58,880 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 10: The whole thing of giving up it should never be there. 613 00:29:03,080 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 10: You could do anything you put your mind to. And 614 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 10: that's just one aspect of it. 615 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,760 Speaker 1: You mentioned your dad. He was a firefighter for more 616 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:14,160 Speaker 1: than two decades, obviously a dangerous and heroic line of work. 617 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:16,160 Speaker 1: How did his example shape you? 618 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 10: He just made sure that we did the right thing, 619 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,760 Speaker 10: and he had a great example himself. We come from 620 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,880 Speaker 10: a military background. My uncle's an army rager, my grandpa's 621 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 10: arm rager. His father was an army His father was 622 00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 10: a police officer, So it comes down from history from 623 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 10: my grandmother who worked in the school district. We just 624 00:29:36,800 --> 00:29:40,320 Speaker 10: had a good model what we should do. But when 625 00:29:40,320 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 10: you look at him and you look at first responders 626 00:29:43,640 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 10: in the whole aspect of it, they riscialized every single 627 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:47,400 Speaker 10: day and not knowing they're going to come home to 628 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,480 Speaker 10: their families. And when you grew up with something like that, 629 00:29:50,560 --> 00:29:53,360 Speaker 10: you understand the risk that he was taking for others. 630 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,720 Speaker 10: So when you look into how you should be like, 631 00:29:57,400 --> 00:30:00,920 Speaker 10: you should grow into a way that respect you for 632 00:30:01,000 --> 00:30:03,800 Speaker 10: what you do and how you accomplish yourself and how 633 00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 10: you move around in life. And I think he challenged 634 00:30:07,120 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 10: us when we was younger, especially when we were in 635 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,200 Speaker 10: high school, to do more and do better. That's when 636 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 10: we initially started a turkey drive because he went on 637 00:30:16,040 --> 00:30:20,640 Speaker 10: a call, I want to say, on Christmas Eve and 638 00:30:20,680 --> 00:30:22,920 Speaker 10: the family lost everything, and he went to the local 639 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,720 Speaker 10: Soulbot gifts by the turkey and everything, gave it to 640 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 10: them and say, hey, I know you lost everything, here 641 00:30:27,880 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 10: you go, and it was probably the biggest thing. And 642 00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:31,720 Speaker 10: then from there on it kind of built through the 643 00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:33,840 Speaker 10: family that this is what we're going to do, and 644 00:30:33,880 --> 00:30:35,680 Speaker 10: we did every year with him, and I kind of 645 00:30:35,680 --> 00:30:37,800 Speaker 10: took over from there when I got into college and 646 00:30:37,880 --> 00:30:39,800 Speaker 10: to do it by myself. But he was an example 647 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:43,520 Speaker 10: of always caring about others around him, knowing that he 648 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 10: had his own personal stuff going on. But it's always 649 00:30:46,520 --> 00:30:49,560 Speaker 10: a help in hand to put it out there. It's 650 00:30:49,680 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 10: never a hope hand. We see somebody struggling to his 651 00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:56,960 Speaker 10: walk away, and now we're built. You built to be kind, 652 00:30:57,080 --> 00:30:58,320 Speaker 10: he built to care about people. 653 00:30:59,080 --> 00:31:02,600 Speaker 1: So he helped the fan that lost their home, and 654 00:31:02,680 --> 00:31:05,480 Speaker 1: you've been doing that ever since from that example. 655 00:31:05,640 --> 00:31:09,480 Speaker 10: Yes, that's how it literally started from there. Then every 656 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 10: single year from there on Thanksgiving, I made sure that 657 00:31:13,200 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 10: I helped people out. And I was think in college 658 00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 10: you started with like five to ten people buying full 659 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:22,320 Speaker 10: mills for everybody on Thanksgiving, and then once I got into 660 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:24,880 Speaker 10: the NFL, it kind of just grew from there, you know. 661 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 10: Then the five families came to one hundred families, came 662 00:31:28,760 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 10: to five hundred families, and it came to Thanksgiving, and 663 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:34,480 Speaker 10: then it went to Christmas.

Then two years later I got 834 00:40:16,239 --> 00:40:17,879 Speaker 10: it covered. He'd like, I had a feeling you're going 835 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:19,839 Speaker 10: and get a cover.
