Speaker 1: You're listening to the Ravens Press Pass podcast. It is Friday,
Speaker 1: January twenty sixth, and the Ravens were getting ready to
Speaker 1: play the AFC Championship game on Sunday against the Kansas
Speaker 1: City Chiefs. As they get ready for that game, we
Speaker 1: had a chance to hear from head coach John Hartwall.
Speaker 2: Okay, great seeing everybody. Appreciate everybody being here.
Speaker 3: Good practice, beautiful day, great day for football today and
Speaker 3: for a lot of other things. Some days are good
Speaker 3: for football and skiing. We're dancing in the rain, but
Speaker 3: today was good for a lot of stuff. So we
Speaker 3: had a great practice. Guys are into it, locked in,
Speaker 3: understand the challenge in front of us against a great
Speaker 3: football team, very well coach, very talented, very tough. So
Speaker 3: we're looking forward to it. We can't wait to get
Speaker 3: to it. But we have still some preparation to do
Speaker 3: up until that time. So what questions you have, John,
Speaker 3: there's some reports.
Speaker 4: That Titan Martages would be activated off of anger reserve.
Speaker 4: What can you tell us about that?
Speaker 3: He is going to be activated off injury reserve today?
Speaker 4: Indication think he's going to play as well?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean that's the idea for sure.
Speaker 5: That has to be done on Sunday to make sure
Speaker 5: he's good to.
Speaker 3: Go or you know, I don't think so, we'll see.
Speaker 3: I mean, unless there's some kind of a problem, he
Speaker 3: should he'll be playing.
Speaker 6: The priority should guys they like to store twelve part time.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean our offense is what it is at
Speaker 3: this point in time. So to add a player like
Speaker 3: Mark is a great a great, great ad for us.
Speaker 3: I mean it's a great advantage. We're excited about it.
Speaker 3: Mark's been looking good the last couple of weeks. Uh,
Speaker 3: he's merged into the game plan as we built it
Speaker 3: this week, and that's what we'll be running with on Sunday.
Speaker 4: John, what do you think the Philip? The team is right?
Speaker 7: Man?
Speaker 5: Is you guy just finished your last practice before before
Speaker 5: the game?
Speaker 3: I mean they're excited, you know, they're they're there. It
Speaker 3: takes a lot to get to this point, you know, Uh,
Speaker 3: to still be playing in a game of this magnitude,
Speaker 3: It's it's a hard thing to do, you know. So
Speaker 3: they're excited to be playing the game. They want to
Speaker 3: put their best foot forward. They want to play their
Speaker 3: best Uh, they want to play their hardest, you know,
Speaker 3: they want to do well, So that's how they're thinking.
Speaker 4: I know you've talked about it this week.
Speaker 5: Could you talk about your relationship again with Andy Reid?
Speaker 4: And do you guys talk.
Speaker 5: Throughout the year.
Speaker 3: We talked here and there. You know, it's not like
Speaker 3: we're talking regularly throughout the year. But the relationship is great. Uh,
Speaker 3: he's a he's a guy I look up to always
Speaker 3: have admire him very much. We do a lot in
Speaker 3: the off season, also just friendship wise, but also talk
Speaker 3: about kids a lot and tell you that, but also
Speaker 3: with the rules and stuff like that. But we haven't
Speaker 3: had too many conversations lately. Mentioned hospital because you have
Speaker 3: all edwards at your father one time. You remember that
Speaker 3: visits and how that talked about. Well, I wasn't there
Speaker 3: for the visit that was they were at an All
Speaker 3: Star game, I think, and they spent a couple of
Speaker 3: days together visiting hospitals and I think Andy told me
Speaker 3: one time they were the only three coaches there, so
Speaker 3: we thought that was pretty cool. But uh uh, they
Speaker 3: hit it off and he told me that story the
Speaker 3: first time I met him, And he's pretty meaningful for
Speaker 3: a kid to hear that about his dad, and you know,
Speaker 3: and he's and he's a great guy. I love Andy,
Speaker 3: I love Tammy, I love all their all their kids.
Speaker 3: You know, we was there when the kids were all
Speaker 3: growing up, you know, and and uh running around and
Speaker 3: it's just it's just a coaching relationship that you have
Speaker 3: with your colleagues and it becomes like a family.
Speaker 4: Media day.
Speaker 3: All players wish to will bring a high school be
Speaker 3: at the game with something.
Speaker 4: What's look at that synergy with the team two teams ago.
Speaker 4: If it's a successful this year, Uh.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean I big Oils fan obviously love watching
Speaker 3: what they did this year, and they're amazing.
Speaker 2: I love those players.
Speaker 3: We have that little golf tournament, you know, so highly
Speaker 3: competitive golf tournament. The Oarls usually win it. Baseball players
Speaker 3: are always great golfers. Football players.
Speaker 2: Football players squeeze the club too hard, you know. It's like,
Speaker 2: loosen up, you know it'll be fine.
Speaker 4: I gotta hit it harder, further, you know.
Speaker 3: So, But we love the Oils and Brandon's a really
Speaker 3: good friend. I really have so much respect for him,
Speaker 3: and it's good he's going to be there.
Speaker 4: On two thousand and eight.
Speaker 2: What have you learned about getting ready for a big game?
Speaker 3: Like this, Well, I mean it's a game, that's the
Speaker 3: bottom Line's a football game. It's against a very good team. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the opportunity, the reward to win one game is uh
Speaker 3: is great. You know everybody understands that. You put in perspective,
Speaker 3: you got to play your best football against the best teams.
Speaker 3: But it's a football game, you know, so all the
Speaker 3: things that that matter in a football game matter in
Speaker 3: this game, and those are the things that we're going
Speaker 3: to try to do well.
Speaker 2: John.
Speaker 1: Kind of toughness did it take for Mark Andrews to
Speaker 1: get from that, you know you and you know, against society,
Speaker 1: to get to a point where he's being activated.
Speaker 3: That's a great, great point, Jamis, and I would say,
Speaker 3: an amazing amount of toughness, you know, physical toughness in
Speaker 3: terms of the work he had to put in and
Speaker 3: the pain, I mean the physical pain he went through
Speaker 3: and I saw him in the training room, I mean
Speaker 3: very painful injury, very painful rehab, and then just the
Speaker 3: mental toughness to I mean, you know, Mark, the crazy
Speaker 3: thing is, as you talk to him, it's how's it going.
Speaker 4: It's going great, It's amazing.
Speaker 2: I've been doing so well. Everybody's amazing with me. I
Speaker 2: love these guys, I love everything.
Speaker 3: It's just how he stays, uh, you know, his positive,
Speaker 3: A plus positive every single day.
Speaker 4: I just love that about him.
Speaker 3: On Sunday, of course, a lot of legends, even Michael Fels,
Speaker 3: will be in the house. It's certainly even worth you
Speaker 3: for in AAFC find out where your thoughts on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's cool, it's cool. Well, it's nice, and.
Speaker 3: But we'll be focused on I know the Chiefs are
Speaker 3: going to be in the house, so I think that's
Speaker 3: going to be our focus for sure.
Speaker 2: Ring already into twenty twelve, You've been back a.
Speaker 8: Couple times in the playoffs.
Speaker 1: But tough to get back at this point. What does
Speaker 1: it say about the league that you coach in, how
Speaker 1: difficult it is to get to this point?
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, I mean we say it many times. It's
Speaker 3: a it's tough to win a football game in the
Speaker 3: National Football League. You know, it's it's the most competitive
Speaker 3: thing that I can imagine. I'm in the middle of it.
Speaker 3: But I'm sure there are other things that are really
Speaker 3: competitive in life. I'm just not aware of them. You know,
Speaker 3: this is this is the toughest thing in the world
Speaker 3: to me to win a football game, and that's what
Speaker 3: we're gonna try to do on Sunday.
Speaker 8: Funny way the.
Speaker 3: Guys work this week, was it as normal as you
Speaker 3: try to keep it, knowing what's at stake?
Speaker 5: Do you feel like everything when you know the way
Speaker 5: it usually goes like in three?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean it's the same routine. We're a routine group.
Speaker 3: It's a practice sport, it's a meeting sport. Our guys
Speaker 3: are doing what they always do, trying to do it
Speaker 3: the best we can.
Speaker 4: We did.
Speaker 3: We try to have our best week this week, you know,
Speaker 3: and and that's what we tried to do.
Speaker 8: Did you do any preparations for rain or if he
Speaker 8: played so often in it this year that you didn't
Speaker 8: really have to do anything different.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we didn't really do anything different. You know, you
Speaker 3: get the balls wet here and there. But we've been
Speaker 3: it's been we've we've been rained down a lot this year.
Speaker 5: John mentioned at the beginning of the week.
Speaker 8: You know, it's been fifty three years since an AFC
Speaker 8: Championship game.
Speaker 6: US post post a year shout out Jerry and his
Speaker 6: connection to that last geame.
Speaker 3: Have you heard more stories or purchased around town, just
Speaker 3: what this game needs to.
Speaker 5: People in Gary, Baltimore.
Speaker 3: I gotta be honest with you, I've kind of been
Speaker 3: a cocoon, you know. I've kind of been kind of
Speaker 3: you know, so if I think people are probably excited
Speaker 3: my guests, you know, but we've been focusing on the game.
Speaker 3: I'm excited for the town. I think as someone like
Speaker 3: Tom Maddy and his wife you know who went They
Speaker 3: went to high school with my mom, you know, so
Speaker 3: when we came to town here, they were the first ones
Speaker 3: to reach out. Tom and Judy Maddie and we went
Speaker 3: to dinner with him, and I think what this would
Speaker 3: have meant to him, you know, to have this game
Speaker 3: back here in Baltimore.
Speaker 2: So things like that they're meaningful.
Speaker 5: John, how did more of them look distanly and things
Speaker 5: that still point of just a game time things?
Speaker 3: Uh, he looked good, you know. I'm I'm I'm confident.
Speaker 3: I'm confident, but you know, I can't say for sure.
Speaker 5: You don't want to get too far ahead, I know,
Speaker 5: but you have a game next year against.
Speaker 2: Your brother again.
Speaker 5: What was the reception like hearing about him? He's ruining
Speaker 5: the charge?
Speaker 3: Ah, fired up? You know, Yeah, I didn't not thinking
Speaker 3: about the game. No, that's that's the game way off
Speaker 3: in the future. But uh, very excited for Jim, happy
Speaker 3: for his family. Like I told you guys before. Uh
Speaker 3: he called that night back home and the kids that
Speaker 3: already had their backpack, they were ready. They thought they
Speaker 3: were going the next day to LA. They're actually coming here.
Speaker 3: So that's cool. But they didn't waste the bag packing
Speaker 3: I guess. But uh, he's It's like I said, the
Speaker 3: Chargers just got themselves a great, great football coach. Players
Speaker 3: are gonna love him, City's.
Speaker 2: Gonna love him.
Speaker 3: Uh, and you know they're gonna they're gonna be very formidable.
Speaker 1: All right, thanks, that would say coach John Harbaugh. We
Speaker 1: also heard from quarterback Lamar.
Speaker 3: Jackson, excessive media attention this week for your second time
Speaker 3: joining us.
Speaker 2: Is that impactful on anyway?
Speaker 4: Is it impactful? Does it bother? Is it?
Speaker 3: Is it just distraction or is it just whatever?
Speaker 9: I mean, you guys want to know what's going on,
Speaker 9: how we think and how we're feeling.
Speaker 4: So it's cool. I'm cool with it.
Speaker 3: John just told us that Mark Andrews could be activated
Speaker 3: offen de reserve and he's gonna play, Like what what
Speaker 3: does that mean to you?
Speaker 4: And what does that mean to the team?
Speaker 9: It means a lot to all of us. What it
Speaker 9: means to me is I got another security blanket. You know,
Speaker 9: I'm going to feel him likely and the rest of
Speaker 9: the guys. Uh, just ready to get after it right now.
Speaker 2: I talked to Nelson age little last week and talk
Speaker 2: about you. He said, there's something in you this year,
Speaker 2: being all year, and.
Speaker 4: He's with it. What has been the key for you
Speaker 4: to maintain lugged in the whole season? Just knowing what
Speaker 4: set state?
Speaker 9: You know, just being around for some years now and
Speaker 9: uh seeing different different teams we we've we've had here,
Speaker 9: and I I feel like something like back go back
Speaker 9: to twenty nineteen. Uh we had we had a chance
Speaker 9: to be and where we are right now, Uh and
Speaker 9: we fall short, you know. So like I said, me
Speaker 9: just being around different teams, knowing we got a g
Speaker 9: a great defense, great offense, great special teams. Uh, opportunities
Speaker 9: right in front of us. So you know, I gotta
Speaker 9: just stay locked in. All of us should should be
Speaker 9: thinking the same way more.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 5: You wanna know how you're feeling? So what are your
Speaker 5: nerves like?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 4: Before the biggest games an outs, the same as it
Speaker 4: was last week. Mark Patrick said, Uh, he watched you
Speaker 4: in college.
Speaker 6: He knew this was gonna take place and there was
Speaker 6: gonna be these battles between you and.
Speaker 5: Him going down for for years to come.
Speaker 1: Uh your respect level for him? And when do you
Speaker 1: feel the same wacks?
Speaker 9: Oh, definitely, But I didn't really catch they games. I
Speaker 9: didn't really catch those guys games, but definitely when out
Speaker 9: when I did, Uh, actually watched Patrick play when we
Speaker 9: got to the league and stuff like that.
Speaker 4: It was a no brainer.
Speaker 9: You know, he's one of those guys he wanted the
Speaker 9: goats in the making, you know, but definitely definitely looking
Speaker 9: forward to it.
Speaker 7: No, if I'm not. Patrick mentioned uh that he'd seen
Speaker 7: you from AFAR, giving you a lot of praise obviously,
Speaker 7: but going against the quarterback that has had the most
Speaker 7: success going three to one and those had to head matchups,
Speaker 7: how much sweeter would it be to get the win
Speaker 7: against a quarterback that has led his team to six
Speaker 7: straight championship uh games?
Speaker 4: As well? Yeah, I'm not.
Speaker 9: I'm not really worried about what he's done with his team.
Speaker 9: You know, it didn't matter who he was playing, you know,
Speaker 9: I was gonna feel the same way. But it'd definitely
Speaker 9: be great, you know, cause they they've been going to
Speaker 9: the fc E each and every year super Bowl seems
Speaker 9: like has been every year since I've been in the
Speaker 9: league at least. But yeah, it'd definitely be a be
Speaker 9: a good feeling. No, just to win with this the
Speaker 9: the last playoff game, you know, it definitely be great
Speaker 9: to win.
Speaker 2: Like you said, your.
Speaker 9: Nerves are kind of where they were last week, and
Speaker 9: he's kind of lived in the moment all year.
Speaker 2: How do were you personally?
Speaker 4: How do you go.
Speaker 5: About not making this game, you know, bigger than all
Speaker 5: the other games you.
Speaker 4: Played this year?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 4: See, that's just my mindset, you know.
Speaker 9: I've I've been in games where uh you know, it's
Speaker 9: a what what what it's it's one of the games
Speaker 9: of the week or something like that, and I'm hype.
Speaker 9: I'm hype with the with everyone else hype, And when
Speaker 9: I get on the field, it's like I'm tired now,
Speaker 9: you know, So I pretty much just be cool and
Speaker 9: c cool, come and collect, you know, into the game.
Speaker 9: The ball, the ball snapped, the whistle's blown, you know,
Speaker 9: stuff like that.
Speaker 4: Do you have a.
Speaker 3: Relationship with Chris Jal's at all as it's been a
Speaker 3: normal week for you as far as something I was
Speaker 3: asking to coach the same thing. It's a bigger game,
Speaker 3: obviously a lot of but if you guys treat it,
Speaker 3: it's pretty much more.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we pretty pretty much treated it the same same.
Speaker 2: Do you have a relationship with Chris Jalge if you
Speaker 2: played against U?
Speaker 4: Like obviously what head the head of the boys? Yeah?
Speaker 9: I I I played against some a few times, you know,
Speaker 9: but I don't really have a relationship with 'em.
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 7: Last time we spoke, you were securing a playoff spot.
Speaker 7: Now you're hosting a championship game. That day you told
Speaker 7: me how important your faith has been throughout the journey.
Speaker 7: So now I want to ask you what has been
Speaker 7: the toughest part of your journey and how you were
Speaker 7: able to manage it.
Speaker 9: The toughest part of my journey, I really don't know,
Speaker 9: you know, because of because of my faith just knowing
Speaker 9: God with me through whatever I'm going through. You know,
Speaker 9: I just put my trust to Him and just pretty
Speaker 9: much go with the flow. So I really don't have
Speaker 9: pressure or I'll be overthinking anything.
Speaker 2: Now was mark out at practice every afew weeks.
Speaker 9: He's been looking good. He's looking sharp. You know, he's
Speaker 9: been speeding up the process. He's been looking great. He's
Speaker 9: been looking great as normal.
Speaker 2: As practice was a swift.
Speaker 6: It's not normal around town or out in the state park.
Speaker 5: But have you felt any of that excitement?
Speaker 2: I know you don't go out.
Speaker 5: Too much, yeah, and corrouse around, but are you feeling
Speaker 5: excitement around town?
Speaker 9: I mean, I'm excited. Uh, I see it on social media,
Speaker 9: you know, all the fans. I'm getting tacked every day
Speaker 9: all day, So I'm definitely I'm definitely seeing it, and
Speaker 9: I'm I'm knowing what's going on. I understand what's at
Speaker 9: State for the city and how everyone feel about the team.
Speaker 4: So definitely, speaking of.
Speaker 8: Social media, are you aware ballb ah the buzz and
Speaker 8: es of got you tweeting?
Speaker 3: Johnny?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I've seen, Yeah I did.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I know you O for saying this game was curious though,
Speaker 5: mike Vic, like, what do you remember about in watching
Speaker 5: him and growing up and then when was that like
Speaker 5: having been but as a mentor really on your.
Speaker 9: Tread Yeah, I definitely watched Mike Vic. Uh, definitely highlights
Speaker 9: you know I always called highlights, Uh, when I was
Speaker 9: a kid growing up when he was playing, I really
Speaker 9: didn't I really didn't like football at the time, you know,
Speaker 9: watching it at least, But uh, once he went to
Speaker 9: the Eagles and stuff like that. You know, I'm pretty
Speaker 9: much older, and I remember all the the I remember
Speaker 9: the game from uh when they played against the Giants,
Speaker 9: the comeback game. That was a that was a crazy game.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 9: He was to me, he was still in his prime,
Speaker 9: you know, but he wasn't running as much. You know,
Speaker 9: he was just throwing the ball all over the field
Speaker 9: of Shawn. He had those guys mccoyd. They was just
Speaker 9: going crazy.
Speaker 4: But I I remember, I remember a lot. I remember
Speaker 4: a lot definitely.
Speaker 5: Called shit when he used to call you and stuff early.
Speaker 4: On in your I mean, it's cool, it's cool.
Speaker 6: I guess back to fight raging might say.
Speaker 9: Like, we gonna, I believe, we just gonna keep doing
Speaker 9: what weve been doing. You know, just this not the
Speaker 9: ball to all our guys, you know, not just one person.
Speaker 9: You know, Uh, Marcus is definitely gonna help us through
Speaker 9: this process. You know, he's he's one of the ones.
Speaker 9: But we gonna keep dishing the ball out that we've been.
Speaker 7: Doing, and he putting to address the team and sort
Speaker 7: of what message would that be for Sunday.
Speaker 9: Uh, we we should already know what's going on. You know,
Speaker 9: it's not need to be said.
Speaker 4: Y everyone know what's at state for us. Just stay
Speaker 4: locked in, alright, Mark, appreciate y'all.
Speaker 1: That was quarterback Lamar Jackson in the locker room today.
Speaker 1: We also talk with tight end Mark Andrews, who the
Speaker 1: Ravens activated today from injured reserve and he's expected to
Speaker 1: return to action on Sunday. He talked about all that today.
Speaker 3: Mark, that you could get back here at this point.
Speaker 6: N Yeah, I think that, you know, mentally, you got
Speaker 6: to stay on top of it. You got to be
Speaker 6: able to you know, you know, get healthy in your head,
Speaker 6: get healthy with your body. It's it's all in one.
Speaker 6: So for me pushing myself every day, you know, believing
Speaker 6: that is it gonna be able to come back, And
Speaker 6: it's easy to do when you have great teammates that
Speaker 6: every day you come in, it's just just say that
Speaker 6: we're gonna keep winning for you, and we're gonna keep
Speaker 6: winning and by the time you're back, it's it's gonna
Speaker 6: be go time.
Speaker 1: Mark how much time each day was devoted to your rehab,
Speaker 1: would you say if you.
Speaker 5: Were estimating.
Speaker 6: It just depends. I probably spend out four to six
Speaker 6: hours here every day and work out rehab, and then
Speaker 6: you're not home and there's different things like the hyperbaric
Speaker 6: oxygen chamber and stuff like that. So basically the whole
Speaker 6: day was was dedicated towards a you know, getting better mark.
Speaker 8: People say when you're getting game mode close to a game,
Speaker 8: they notice stay away because you kind of get in
Speaker 8: that mode. Do you have you thought about what the
Speaker 8: emotions may be like for you given the stage, and
Speaker 8: how much how hard you work to get back?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 6: You know you I feel like, you know, being out
Speaker 6: of the the game for forever many weeks it's been
Speaker 6: it's a I'm definitely internalizing everything thinking about it, and
Speaker 6: I'm excited, you know. I can't tell you how excited.
Speaker 6: This is what I love to do. I love to
Speaker 6: play football. I love the Ravens, I love the city
Speaker 6: they're gonna get. I'm gonna give them everything I got.
Speaker 3: Do you think will you have to be costious at
Speaker 3: all with how many snaps you play or is that
Speaker 3: gonna be played by field?
Speaker 6: I'm feeling good. I'm I'm gonna help this team anyway
Speaker 6: I can, and whatever they're asked me to do, I'm
Speaker 6: gonna do.
Speaker 4: So, yeah, I feel good.
Speaker 2: Was there a moment did you at any time?
Speaker 6: When was it the time you said I think I
Speaker 6: can make it best? It's tough, you know, it's you know,
Speaker 6: in the early stages of rehab, it's it's little increments,
Speaker 6: and then you look back a week before that, and
Speaker 6: it was a huge jump. And so we start making
Speaker 6: these huge, huge jumps, and we got to a point
Speaker 6: about three three weeks ago, and you start talking about it,
Speaker 6: you start wrapping your mind around you know what's gonna happen,
Speaker 6: And that's kind of how it went.
Speaker 7: How much of the Mark Andrews and we've come to know?
Speaker 3: Do you think it can be out there somewhere?
Speaker 6: I'm gonna give it my all. I'm gonna give it
Speaker 6: my own on you'll see me.
Speaker 4: I was saying that it's a born in Isaiah to
Speaker 4: feel a pair of shoes on.
Speaker 2: How have you seen this offense?
Speaker 6: Perhaps as almost as you last way, just efficient. They're
Speaker 6: playing really good ball, and obviously you know Number of
Speaker 6: eight's playing. You know some of the best ball in
Speaker 6: the world. Someone I've never seen him like this, So
Speaker 6: he's doing everything incredibly well, and he's helping everybody else
Speaker 6: out and and everybody's helping them out too, So it's
Speaker 6: a team game. I'm just hoping to add in help
Speaker 6: but when I can, and just add that a little bit,
Speaker 6: a little bit of smart not being able to play
Speaker 6: last week and knowing that if if the game didn't
Speaker 6: go this way, you wouldn't be out there this week
Speaker 6: with this opportunity. It's tough, you know, But at the
Speaker 6: same time, I've I've been trusting these guys, you know
Speaker 6: every step of the way, and you know they've done it.
Speaker 6: So you just got to keep faith, keep a good mindset.
Speaker 6: And yeah, there's a lot of respect for for what
Speaker 6: these guys have done. And and again I'm hoping to
Speaker 6: add to that mark.
Speaker 7: You said you've never seen Lamar like this.
Speaker 1: What are you seeing? Great ball?
Speaker 4: It's great ball.
Speaker 6: He's a he's slinging it, he's running it, he's he's
Speaker 6: making everybody's jobs easier to make a defense job hard.
Speaker 6: And that's the MVP right there, and he's playing at
Speaker 6: that level.
Speaker 3: What does you think you and Isaiah can stress the
Speaker 3: defense by being on the field together.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, you look at you look at great
Speaker 6: players and how they can you know, hurt a defense.
Speaker 6: It's it's two great players, you know, if we're on
Speaker 6: the same side, if we're on different sides, it's something
Speaker 6: you got to pay attention to. You got to give
