00:00:45,640 --> 00:00:49,920
Speaker 1: Welcome back to the Richard Sherman Podcast. It's Championship week, Mitchell,

15
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: who you got it is? Let's start in the a

16
00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:58,680
Speaker 1: f C. Rich Bengals at Chiefs. We're high on sinc.

17
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: Can they get four in a row against Mahomes, the

18
00:01:02,400 --> 00:01:06,760
Speaker 1: hobbled Mahomes. My day, ad Rich, they beat Mahomes healthy,

19
00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 1: They beat my homes with Tyreek Mitchell, their defensive coordinator,

20
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: has been putting together some very masterful game plans. Lewis

21
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 1: Riddick where we were just talking on Twitter about it.

22
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,320
Speaker 1: My goodness, he is putting on a masterclass. And I

23
00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:25,400
Speaker 1: really don't understand why he hasn't got a head coach

24
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,280
Speaker 1: job or even even an interview. But maybe it doesn't

25
00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: want to be a head coach. Maybe it just wants

26
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: to be the defensive coordinator in Cincinnati Bengals forever. But

27
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,080
Speaker 1: he's doing a heck of a job. They're using their talent,

28
00:01:35,160 --> 00:01:39,240
Speaker 1: and their defensive and offensive lines are bullies. They went

29
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:43,839
Speaker 1: into Buffalo, into the code where the Bills mafia is Mitchell,

30
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,320
Speaker 1: and they bullied them on both sides of the ball.

31
00:01:46,800 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: Three backups on the offensive line, three and they bullied them.

32
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 1: They they're on ah what ten game winning streak. Now

33
00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,680
Speaker 1: like Joe Burrow when he's played Cincinnati, Mitchell, he doesn't

34
00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: just he isn't just like scrape By against Cincinnati plays

35
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 1: really well. He's he's completion percentage, eight touchdowns, one interception pass.

36
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,000
Speaker 1: The rating that's against Kansas City Mitchell when the three

37
00:02:09,080 --> 00:02:12,880
Speaker 1: games he's three and oh whoa, And my homes is hobbled.

38
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 1: I've had high ankle sprains, Mitchell. It took me out

39
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 1: of this the first Super Bowl we won. It took

40
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:18,840
Speaker 1: me out. I was on crutches the rest of the day.

41
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 1: You know, I was not playing a football game the

42
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,760
Speaker 1: next week. I'm not covering anybody. It sounds good he

43
00:02:23,880 --> 00:02:27,040
Speaker 1: played through and soldier, Mitchell. He deserves a ton of

44
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,280
Speaker 1: credit because I don't know how he did it. But

45
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 1: once that swelling got in there, the pain, it's not

46
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 1: enough pain callers in the world to think he's gonna

47
00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 1: go out there and be better now here. They'll probably

48
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,359
Speaker 1: try to, you know, put an air cast on and

49
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: try to do their best, but this isn't gonna be

50
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 1: Jacksonville's defensive line. They didn't play with its its urgency.

51
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 1: They didn't smell blood and water. That was the problem

52
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: in that game when he got hobbled. It's unfortunately, you

53
00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:51,639
Speaker 1: never want to see anybody get hurt. But when you

54
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,760
Speaker 1: see somebody down, you you smell an opportunity. And then

55
00:02:54,800 --> 00:02:56,600
Speaker 1: they let Chad Henny go in there and go ninety

56
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: eight yards and score touchdown. And then you let him

57
00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 1: come back and throw the ball to Travis Kelsey over

58
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,239
Speaker 1: and over and over and over again. That's not a

59
00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 1: team with killer instinct. The Cincinnati Bengals, they got killer instinct.

60
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: Miss Well, they're not gonna allow that. The NFL Playoffs

Speaker 1: I don't disagree with you, and you know I love

77
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: me some. Joe Burrow, he has certainly become the Chiefs

78
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,920
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes kryptonite. Right, But Mahomes is a competitor,

79
00:04:08,080 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 1: and this is a guy hobbled or not, He's gonna

80
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 1: give it as all. I mean, thirty in that second

81
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:17,120
Speaker 1: half after the high angles. Brain, rich that's Patrick Mahomes

82
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 1: stat line yards in a touchdown. I mean, we know

83
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 1: a lot of that with the Travis Kelsey. I'm assuming

84
00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:25,480
Speaker 1: your boys over in since you Land are gonna be

85
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:29,120
Speaker 1: game planning and prepping for for a lot of Travis Kelsey,

86
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:34,640
Speaker 1: you know. But Richard, you cannot underestimate and understate the

87
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,039
Speaker 1: value of Patrick Mahomes. I mean, the guy is gonna

88
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:40,160
Speaker 1: play with one leg, you know. In the words of

89
00:04:40,279 --> 00:04:42,560
Speaker 1: Dan Campbell, I don't care if you got one ass,

90
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,400
Speaker 1: cheek and three toes. Patrick Mahomes gonna kick your ass,

91
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,080
Speaker 1: you know. So this game is the battle of the Behemoths, right,

92
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: and Vegas ironically had an opening line of two and

93
00:04:54,120 --> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: a half in favor of Kansas City. That point spread

94
00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,240
Speaker 1: has now shifted favoring the bengal Us minus one and

95
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,880
Speaker 1: a half. Mister, I meant to get on that. I

96
00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,640
Speaker 1: meant to get on it. While it was a two

97
00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:08,400
Speaker 1: and a half because I knew, I know there's a

98
00:05:08,520 --> 00:05:10,680
Speaker 1: lot of money in my account that will be directed

99
00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,280
Speaker 1: to that game. Mitchell, because when they played in Week thirteen,

100
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: Travis Kelsey, who had fourteen catches last week, had six

101
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 1: targets four catches. Because the Cincinnati Bengals know how to cover,

102
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 1: they know he he's their go to guy. We're gonna

103
00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,440
Speaker 1: give him extra attention. They're not gonna be like Jacksonville

104
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 1: Jaguars and say, hey, best tight end in the league,

105
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 1: first team, All Pro, wide open, We'll put a d

106
00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 1: end on him, We'll put it, We'll put a linebacker

107
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,440
Speaker 1: on him. Well, we'll we'll put somebody who do who

108
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:40,240
Speaker 1: else do we have? Just throw somebody on him. We'll

109
00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: we'll cover him. No, they're not gonna do that. They're

110
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,480
Speaker 1: gonna act, They're gonna act accordingly, and they're gonna cover him. Well. Now,

111
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,760
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahones deserves a ton of credit if he beats

112
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 1: if he wins this game, Mitchell put his name in

113
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 1: lore because it's incredible. Anybody who has had a high

114
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:01,960
Speaker 1: ekle's brain can attest that it is incredibly hard to move.

115
00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:05,080
Speaker 1: There's no push off, there's no power, and it's his

116
00:06:05,240 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 1: right leg, so it's his it's it's his plant leg.

117
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,720
Speaker 1: He's power, you know what I mean. When he's throwing

118
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 1: his passes and he still was able to finish that game.

119
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 1: That's incredible. He's able to beat the Cincinnati Bengals and

120
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,480
Speaker 1: come back and win the Super Bowl. There will be

121
00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: very few discussions about who the best quarterback in the

122
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 1: National Football League is for the foreseeable future. There are

123
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:26,680
Speaker 1: very few questions about it now. But the way I

124
00:06:26,760 --> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 1: see it, because everybody talks about Joe Burrow like he's

125
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:33,400
Speaker 1: not really talented. They're like Patrick Mahomes his arm talent,

126
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 1: his athleticism, he's just such a so accurate, so such

127
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:40,080
Speaker 1: a great player, like his potential, his ceiling is just

128
00:06:40,240 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: through the roof. And then they talk about Joe Burrows

129
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:46,640
Speaker 1: like like like Joe Burrows, he's just uh, I mean,

130
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:49,400
Speaker 1: he's a winner, but he doesn't have the arm strength

131
00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: and he doesn't have the the arm angles and all.

132
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: It's like Batman versus Superman. Superman got the superpowers, Mitchell

133
00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:59,400
Speaker 1: he got, he got all. He can fly, super strong,

134
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,479
Speaker 1: faster than the speed, and bullet all that good stuff.

135
00:07:02,520 --> 00:07:07,400
Speaker 1: That's Patrick Mahomes. But for some reason when Batman, which

136
00:07:07,480 --> 00:07:09,960
Speaker 1: is Joe Burrow, he just got the he got the belt,

137
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: he got all the tricks, he got the receivers, so

138
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:15,280
Speaker 1: he got all the tools. Mantual, he got the Batmobile.

139
00:07:15,480 --> 00:07:18,680
Speaker 1: That's Jamar Chase, that's Jamar Cha. You got te Higgins,

140
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: you got Joe Mixing. He got all the tools, but

141
00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: he ain't got the super he ain't got super speed

142
00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: and all that. But for some reason, every time Superman

143
00:07:25,640 --> 00:07:31,120
Speaker 1: and Batman get together, Batman wins. I love that analogy.

144
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,720
Speaker 1: Rich I love me some Batman. I you know what

145
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:36,920
Speaker 1: I got, Joe Burrow. I'm with you on this, Richard,

146
00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow, this is his time. I believe he I

147
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: believe he goes to Arizona. And I know you're gonna

148
00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:46,200
Speaker 1: hate this, but I believe Cincinnati Bengals come out victorious

149
00:07:46,600 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 1: and the super Bowl. But let's let's shift to the

150
00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: NFC Championship game. I know you have a vested interest

151
00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 1: in your your forty Niners. I know you you love

152
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:59,920
Speaker 1: this team. I know you love you some Nicholas, John Boast,

153
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: uh Fredo Ico, Edward Warner, you know, and I know

154
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 1: he's gonna do some Helenoa who Funga Richard. They're entering

155
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: murky waters. They're entering murky waters against and now somewhat

156
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 1: healthy Jalen Hurts, a guy that is lethal on the run.

157
00:08:20,120 --> 00:08:22,960
Speaker 1: Forty Niners are struggled against running quarterbacks. Now, Ridge, this

158
00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,080
Speaker 1: is new territory for him. Who do you like in

159
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:31,640
Speaker 1: this game? Remove the bias? Please? The bias can't be removed.

160
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:35,040
Speaker 1: It's perfect, like a same, like a marker on your shirt,

161
00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:38,800
Speaker 1: like a blood stain, like it's Mitchell. It's not going anywhere.

162
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:41,120
Speaker 1: I got the forty Niners. They're going into Philly and

163
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 1: they're getting to win. Now. I do like the Philadelphia equals.

164
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,800
Speaker 1: The question marks about Lane Johnson's injury, I mean he

165
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,840
Speaker 1: did a great job last week. I mean, Hassan Riddick, Wow,

166
00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:52,520
Speaker 1: he having an incredible season. He's having a Pro Bowl,

167
00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 1: All Pro year. Was a minute last week. Then the secondary,

168
00:08:57,200 --> 00:08:58,719
Speaker 1: I mean, you can you know the two corners, the

169
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 1: two All pros, you know what I mean, Big Place

170
00:09:00,520 --> 00:09:03,800
Speaker 1: Sleigh and Brad bet Like they're out there doing it.

171
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,800
Speaker 1: They got a lot of talent in the secondary, and

172
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,600
Speaker 1: we're not even talking about everybody else. They got talented

173
00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:13,760
Speaker 1: linebackers offensively, all Day always open a J. Brown like,

174
00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:18,720
Speaker 1: but they don't stop the run on that defense. They

175
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:21,080
Speaker 1: are not great against the run. That's why they had

176
00:09:21,160 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 1: to go get the Dominicans sue. That's why they had

177
00:09:24,200 --> 00:09:28,800
Speaker 1: to go pick people up. Now that may change this week,

178
00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 1: but it hasn't changed against the run this season, Mitchell,

179
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:33,800
Speaker 1: and I expect the San Francisco forty nine is to

180
00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: run the ball. Now, you're right, Jalen Hurts is going

181
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,920
Speaker 1: to run the ball. They're gonna run RPO systems, but

182
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:44,160
Speaker 1: they have bound ways to stop quarterbacks who have designed runs.

183
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,160
Speaker 1: When their play action, when their zone read, when they're

184
00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,840
Speaker 1: they can be stopped, they'll run stunts. Mitchell, we had

185
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 1: the stunts package. It travels, it travels, and I know

186
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: he's talking to Sidelde, He's talking to Dan Quinn. This

187
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: stunts package they will have will do a great job

188
00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:01,120
Speaker 1: against the Jaalen hurt They will force him to throw

189
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,360
Speaker 1: the ball to his very talented receiving gore and got

190
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,839
Speaker 1: her Alas Godard. But they have not seen a guy

191
00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,840
Speaker 1: like Frederico Anthony Warner. They have not seen Tyler Noah

192
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: who found him sneak up from the tall grass from

193
00:10:13,840 --> 00:10:15,880
Speaker 1: the left on the right side, like they're calling a

194
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 1: great game play. We're talking about green Law. You don't

195
00:10:19,280 --> 00:10:21,319
Speaker 1: you don't need to see the accolades about green Law,

196
00:10:21,480 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: but they should be there. He's there and he ate

197
00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:27,439
Speaker 1: scared Jimmy Ward. Jimmy Ward. You see the forced interceptions.

198
00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: He didn't make the play, but he's everywhere like Project Broaches,

199
00:10:30,800 --> 00:10:33,880
Speaker 1: Like you've got to understand they're more than the sum

200
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: of their Parson. And then we get to the office.

201
00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:38,959
Speaker 1: You got m Christian McCaffrey, you got Deepot, you got

202
00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:41,880
Speaker 1: George Kittle, the All Pro left tackle who you can

203
00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:44,400
Speaker 1: slide away from. And then he plays Patty Cake with

204
00:10:44,480 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 1: Michael Parson. He played Patty Cake with Michael Parson's like

205
00:10:47,520 --> 00:10:52,200
Speaker 1: like their kids in there. Hey, okay, where we're going. Yeah,

206
00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 1: that's what I'm talking about. Mitchell, Like he's the best

207
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,199
Speaker 1: in the league. So when you have a guy like that,

208
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,480
Speaker 1: you can slide away from him Mitchell. And then we're

209
00:11:00,520 --> 00:11:03,160
Speaker 1: talking about Brandon. Iou Brandon and I you Mitchell. We

210
00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,840
Speaker 1: had a thousand yards season and he's gonna he's got

211
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:08,120
Speaker 1: some more big plays in there. Rock Party's gonna get

212
00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 1: it done. I got stand for I know you love

213
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: San fran This is gonna be an ultimate test for

214
00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 1: brock Purty. And let's not forget Rock Purty faced off

215
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:19,040
Speaker 1: against Jalen Hurts while they were in college, so these

216
00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,520
Speaker 1: two have some history. Brock Purty unfortunately lost that game,

217
00:11:23,000 --> 00:11:25,400
Speaker 1: failed to convert a two point conversion at the end,

218
00:11:25,520 --> 00:11:28,319
Speaker 1: but you know he he fought the cyclones from o

219
00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:32,160
Speaker 1: Iowa State almost knocked off the Oklahoma Sooner is left

220
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:34,920
Speaker 1: by Jalen Hurts. These two have history. Let's see if

221
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,400
Speaker 1: they can he can reverse it. Rich. But I want

222
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 1: to get back to this defensive scheme that you were

223
00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:44,079
Speaker 1: talking about because for us commoners, the common layman, the

224
00:11:44,120 --> 00:11:47,440
Speaker 1: person that didn't play professional football, much like myself, I'm

225
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:50,480
Speaker 1: I'm interested in know can you break down the stunts package?

226
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,040
Speaker 1: What do we as fans need to be looking for?

227
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,880
Speaker 1: The simplest, the simplest way for me to put it is,

228
00:11:57,160 --> 00:12:00,439
Speaker 1: you'll see the end crash, so it will either be

229
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:04,679
Speaker 1: Bosa or Ebo come. They'll crash down on the back.

230
00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,000
Speaker 1: They got the back. So when they do that, the

231
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,240
Speaker 1: linebacker will band in the A gap that he usually has,

232
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,240
Speaker 1: so he usually sitting in the A gap and everybody's

233
00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:15,719
Speaker 1: gap gap gap and then it's usually the d N

234
00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: slides and has the back end the quarterback and you

235
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:20,840
Speaker 1: gotta make a decision. They don't do that. They make

236
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 1: the d N just commit and he raced two gaps,

237
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,959
Speaker 1: so if he doesn't get there fast enough, then that

238
00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: a gap or they chipping or something and create a whole.

239
00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 1: Now they can get through that a gap because it'll

240
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:35,120
Speaker 1: be wide open, but usually he crashes so so hard.

241
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:38,240
Speaker 1: Then they crashed. The d tackle into that gap as well,

242
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:40,760
Speaker 1: so they muddy it up. But the d N has

243
00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: the back, so no matter what, he's going for the back.

244
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,559
Speaker 1: So if their their play accident or they're faking, he's

245
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,480
Speaker 1: gonna tackle the back and then Jalen Hurts goes around.

246
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 1: The backer suits around and he'll have the quarterback, so

247
00:12:51,400 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: it'll be one on one with either green Law our friend.

248
00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,640
Speaker 1: I think they they feel good about that consistently. Now

249
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 1: if they're going play action or peo system, which they've

250
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:03,040
Speaker 1: done a lot of the season, then it will be

251
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:05,840
Speaker 1: on Fred to diagnose that and be able to get

252
00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,559
Speaker 1: out of that and still be in that window. And

253
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: that's where that's where Jalen Hursts has had a lot

254
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,319
Speaker 1: of success. I think they're gonna be able to do it.

255
00:13:13,880 --> 00:13:16,120
Speaker 1: I think they got answers, but I think Sara Janni

256
00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,480
Speaker 1: is gonna have have new wrinkles this week and we'll see.

257
00:13:19,679 --> 00:13:22,120
Speaker 1: We'll see. They they brought some really cool pressure packages.

258
00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:24,360
Speaker 1: You see Fred Warner can cover receivers down the field.

259
00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,719
Speaker 1: Damiko Ryan feels comfortable with that. I'm excited. I know

260
00:13:29,840 --> 00:13:31,920
Speaker 1: you are. And we got a special guest on here next,

261

262
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: He's gonna have a big task this weekend, either going

263
00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:43,800
Speaker 1: up against All Day Always Open A J. Brown or

264

Speaker 1: the Heisman winner DeVante Smith. What do you like about

265
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 1: his game? Are you confident about his abilities going into

266
00:13:50,559 --> 00:13:53,319
Speaker 1: this matchup? That's what I'm very confident. I'm very confident.

267
00:13:53,400 --> 00:13:55,760
Speaker 1: I've known him since he was a kid. He's a dog,

268
00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:59,120
Speaker 1: and he's confident and he believes what he sees. Even

269
00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:01,280
Speaker 1: if things don't go for him, he'll continue to fight.

270
00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:03,480
Speaker 1: He'll continue to scrap, and he'll scrap to the last down.

271
00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,920
Speaker 1: He's having a great playoffs. He's got two picks in

272
00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:08,360
Speaker 1: two games. Can't get no better than that. And their

273
00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: impact plays They're not just tips and overthrows, even though

274
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 1: you gotta get those. He's reading the routes, he's breaking

275
00:14:13,559 --> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: he's believing what he sees. He's confident, he's tackling well,

276
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 1: he's playing with attitude. That's exactly what you need, well, Richard.

00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:52,040
Speaker 1: message last week, they didn't get the message. They thought

305
00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,480
Speaker 1: they thought I was sweet out there. They definitely thought

306
00:15:54,520 --> 00:15:56,400
Speaker 1: it was sweet. Ain't thinking this sweet no more. I

307
00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,440
Speaker 1: almost thought you to the crib. But Zeke wanted to

308
00:15:58,480 --> 00:16:01,720
Speaker 1: get you know what I mean? Play backer? Yeah, yeah,

309
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:05,040
Speaker 1: that was That was my whole goal. My whole goal

310
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:07,760
Speaker 1: was to score like I was supposed to score, like

311
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 1: I was mad at myself. Even when I got to

312
00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 1: the end zone and I realized, I'm like, you didn't

313
00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:16,040
Speaker 1: you didn't score? Like that was my my whole goal,

314
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 1: because ever since I was in high school and even

315
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:21,120
Speaker 1: in Little League, I was always every time the ball

316
00:16:21,160 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 1: touched my hands, I was trying to score. But you say, hey,

317
00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: your team appreciated that. They you know, they needed it.

318
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:29,680
Speaker 1: Have you seen all this craziness? Did you know about

319
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,920
Speaker 1: the Cowboys rivalry before the game or did you hear

320
00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,000
Speaker 1: about everything after the game or did you feel it

321
00:16:35,000 --> 00:16:39,200
Speaker 1: throughout the week? Um? Well, I remember Shanahan bringing it

322
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:42,840
Speaker 1: up last year, and I kind of knew a little bit.

323
00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: And then when we started having our team meeting, we

324
00:16:46,360 --> 00:16:48,600
Speaker 1: start going over more and then I was like, oh

325
00:16:48,680 --> 00:16:51,440
Speaker 1: this serious. Oh yeah, it's just time to lock in.

326
00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: I was like, you make it play in this game

327
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:56,480
Speaker 1: you would be probably remember forever right right this history.

328
00:16:56,720 --> 00:16:58,680
Speaker 1: So you're feeling good, you know what I mean, it's

329
00:16:58,680 --> 00:17:02,320
Speaker 1: your first well, it's your first playoffs starts. You're comfortable,

330
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:05,720
Speaker 1: the team's feeling good. What what what was your mindset

331
00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,600
Speaker 1: going into that game? I know Mee had a good

332
00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:09,440
Speaker 1: game playing, but it looked like y'all was just y'all

333
00:17:09,440 --> 00:17:11,600
Speaker 1: were just hungry out there. Y'all was everywhere. You made

334
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: a tackle on Ceedee Lamb on the sideline and nobody

335
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:16,159
Speaker 1: bringing it up. But you kind of grown man him

336
00:17:16,160 --> 00:17:18,280
Speaker 1: a little bit, got up on this pass and just

337
00:17:18,440 --> 00:17:20,800
Speaker 1: dumped him. You know what I mean, y'all y'all has

338
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,520
Speaker 1: some matteritude. Oh yeah, you know that's that's kind of

339
00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 1: what they preach here. You know what we preach being physical.

340
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:30,879
Speaker 1: You gotta be able to you gotta be able to

341
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:34,320
Speaker 1: hold your own. Really, we all have the same mindset,

342
00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: like since week one, we're trying to win, like there's

343
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,280
Speaker 1: nothing more to it is. Either you're gonna get with

344
00:17:40,400 --> 00:17:42,560
Speaker 1: it or you're gonna get lost. So that's kind of

345
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:45,200
Speaker 1: what that's kind of what our mindset was. So going

346
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:47,479
Speaker 1: into that game, we're seeing all the tweets and uh,

347
00:17:48,160 --> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: you know Michael Parsons saying, uh, this is what we wanted,

348
00:17:51,520 --> 00:17:53,760
Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we kind of take that to heart,

349
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: like were the number one defense and we're gonna show.

350
00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna show everybody. This is a question personal question

351
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: for me, why are you still in the three eight?

352
00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:04,080
Speaker 1: I know you you you you came in with the

353
00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:07,520
Speaker 1: three eight but you didn't had the opportunities with by Now, yeah,

354
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 1: I had an opportunity, but I was like, this number

355
00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,200
Speaker 1: was given to me, so I'm gonna just trying to

356
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: make the best of it. I'm trying to make it

357
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:16,120
Speaker 1: look good. And then and then I I ain't seen

358
00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,040
Speaker 1: no other corner with it, sides Um the corner of

359
00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 1: Lagarius Sneed from the Chiefs. That was the only person

360
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,159
Speaker 1: I've seen with it. So I was like, it was

361
00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:26,000
Speaker 1: given to me. So I'm just I'm just rocking. I

362
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,120
Speaker 1: ain't gonna complain. I'm just put my head down and work.

363
00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 1: And I like that. I like that. And you're going

364
00:18:30,040 --> 00:18:31,639
Speaker 1: to work. You're going to work. How are you feeling

365
00:18:31,640 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: about this matchup y'all got coming up? They got some

366
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:37,520
Speaker 1: talent over there, good quarterback, good offense, good receivers all day,

367
00:18:37,600 --> 00:18:41,040
Speaker 1: always open A J. Brown. They got Devonte Smith, some

368
00:18:41,160 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: talent to guy. But y'all got some talented guys, right, Yeah,

369
00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: I love it. I love this matchup. You know, I

370
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 1: couldn't ask for a better matchup. We played them before,

371
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,680
Speaker 1: so I kind of know what DeVante Smith's like. I

372
00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:58,360
Speaker 1: watched A. J. Brown when we played Tennessee last year.

373
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:00,920
Speaker 1: So I kind of know what they both both like

374
00:19:01,080 --> 00:19:03,560
Speaker 1: to do. We're gonna be ready, We're gonna be ready,

375
00:19:03,600 --> 00:19:06,080
Speaker 1: We're gonna come out. We're gonna play lights up. You're

376
00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:08,000
Speaker 1: playing lights out. Now. What do you think about Coyle?

377
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:10,080
Speaker 1: Because I know he got to be different than any

378
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:12,879
Speaker 1: coach you than ever had before with how he is,

379
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,080
Speaker 1: with his honesty, his meetings. You know, he'd be keeping

380
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:18,840
Speaker 1: in a buck. Oh yeah, yeah. One one thing I

381
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,840
Speaker 1: can say. He a genius to start off, you know,

382
00:19:21,960 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: the way he breaks down the run game and the

383
00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,280
Speaker 1: way he has everything set up. I'll be like this

384
00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,800
Speaker 1: is crazy. Like just just listening to the meetings, you know,

385
00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:31,840
Speaker 1: the team meeting the early morning, I'm like, this is

386
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: crazy how he just put put all this together. But

387
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,840
Speaker 1: him and meetings. Uh, I mean when I start this year,

388
00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: so uh, he was he was only in the beginning

389
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,440
Speaker 1: to training camp, you know. So I was like, I

390
00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,840
Speaker 1: had to step step my game up. And then he

391
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,120
Speaker 1: told me he said one thing I remember he said,

392
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,720
Speaker 1: he was like, I want you to be an asshole.

393
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:54,480
Speaker 1: I want you to be a dog. And then after

394
00:19:54,600 --> 00:20:00,800
Speaker 1: that change was the Leasha's off off. Look, he knows

395
00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:02,880
Speaker 1: what he wanted. He's super smart coach, and he's great

396
00:20:03,280 --> 00:20:06,240
Speaker 1: educating his dudes. That's what people don't understand. Like he

397
00:20:06,359 --> 00:20:09,560
Speaker 1: go on the meetings on Mondays and he teach a lesson.

398
00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: He's like, this is the reason this play work because

399
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:15,840
Speaker 1: with this linebacker right here, you see him, he slid

400
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:18,879
Speaker 1: over too far. We scooped him up out there and

401
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: we went right to here, right right. You'd be like,

402
00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,280
Speaker 1: we're setting this dude up all they safety, they was

403
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: getting lower and lower and lower. We're waiting for him. Yeah,

404
00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:33,800
Speaker 1: and then it just popped like okay, okay, so what

405
00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: you feel about your teammate. You got some of the

406
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,280
Speaker 1: you got some of the best guys. You know, I

407
00:20:37,320 --> 00:20:39,320
Speaker 1: went to the Super Bowl with a lot of the

408
00:20:39,359 --> 00:20:45,200
Speaker 1: guys that are on that defense, Jimmy, Eric uh Nicholas,

409
00:20:46,240 --> 00:20:48,600
Speaker 1: the Law. But they were all young then. You know,

410
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:51,680
Speaker 1: they're all young man now they vetting got captain's zone.

411
00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: What what if those guys taught you throughout the year

412
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: and helped you, you know, as you become the starter

413
00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,840
Speaker 1: and had to play a bigger role in this defense. Well,

414
00:21:00,040 --> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 1: really starting off with Jimmy Uh, he was always like

415
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:05,920
Speaker 1: a big brother when I got when I first got here,

416
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:08,720
Speaker 1: you know, he was always helping me and just telling

417
00:21:08,800 --> 00:21:10,879
Speaker 1: me just believe in yourself, like you got you got

418
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:12,920
Speaker 1: the talent, You just gotta put your head there, and

419
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: you just gotta believe in yourself. Then with Fred, with Fred,

420
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,640
Speaker 1: I mean Fred, he just motivated me just by his appearance.

421
00:21:19,760 --> 00:21:21,720
Speaker 1: Like you know, like when I first got out there,

422
00:21:22,280 --> 00:21:24,240
Speaker 1: it was against the Lions, and it was so much

423
00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:27,040
Speaker 1: communication going on, and I was just starying. I was

424
00:21:27,119 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 1: just staring, like the play was about to start and

425
00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:31,040
Speaker 1: I was just staring. I'm like this Frere Warner right here,

426
00:21:31,119 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 1: like he really like hes making every check, every call

427
00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:36,760
Speaker 1: like it was. It was just crazy to me, like

428
00:21:36,840 --> 00:21:39,119
Speaker 1: I have to really like really let that sink in

429
00:21:39,320 --> 00:21:41,639
Speaker 1: and just it was just crazy. It was a crazy feeling.

430
00:21:41,960 --> 00:21:43,720
Speaker 1: Like but I have the must. I have the most

431
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,600
Speaker 1: utmost respect for these guys on this team, you know,

432
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,560
Speaker 1: and I feel like they deserve, they deserve a Super Bowl.

433
00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 1: So every time I laced it up and I'll step

434
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:54,159
Speaker 1: out there, like I'm not just playing for me. I

435
00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,440
Speaker 1: know I gotta play for them because I know what

436
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 1: they deserve and I know how hard they worked, no question,

437
00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,320
Speaker 1: no question, And and that's that's as it should be.

438
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 1: You know, that's how great defenses for him, That's how

439

441
00:22:08,520 --> 00:22:10,680
Speaker 1: other side of the ball, because your offense is really

442
00:22:10,760 --> 00:22:13,399
Speaker 1: talented as well. You know you you had to be

443
00:22:14,320 --> 00:22:17,680
Speaker 1: amazed with the first Well, first off, he wasn't scared

444
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:19,880
Speaker 1: because the day first day you got there, you were trapping.

445
00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:21,520
Speaker 1: You know, we ain't gonna we ain't gonna act like

446
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:23,600

447
00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:25,879
Speaker 1: ever surprise you the amount of talent that they were

448
00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,920
Speaker 1: able to put together on that team, and then add

449
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:32,000
Speaker 1: Christian McCaffrey this year. I mean, y'all, it's uh an

450
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 1: abundance of ridgets. Yeah, it was. It was crazy because

451
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:39,280
Speaker 1: like just seeing deebo. I never really knew who Debo

452
00:22:39,560 --> 00:22:42,720
Speaker 1: was until I actually got here, and just seeing how

453
00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: he worked, like I know he got this, he got

454
00:22:45,680 --> 00:22:49,360
Speaker 1: the big contract, but just seeing him work through training camp,

455
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:51,000
Speaker 1: like I knew he was gonna do what he did

456
00:22:52,040 --> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: because I was just seeing him, he was coming up

457
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:57,119
Speaker 1: with circus catchers, one hand catchers. I'm like, this dude different,

458
00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,720
Speaker 1: Like he different, and then when the game clicked on

459
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:03,159
Speaker 1: the tape is different. So I was just like, oh,

460
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: this he really underrated. And then uh are you. I've

461
00:23:07,560 --> 00:23:09,920
Speaker 1: been knowing him since college, you know, we we went

462
00:23:09,960 --> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 1: against each other in college, you know, Oregon Arizona State.

463
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:14,920
Speaker 1: So I already knew. I already knew what type of

464
00:23:14,960 --> 00:23:17,360
Speaker 1: talent he had, and I knew if he really put

465
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:19,640
Speaker 1: the put the work in his craft where he could

466
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,080
Speaker 1: be What about k Have you had to cover Kiddle

467
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:26,040
Speaker 1: because kttle craft? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, so yeah,

468
00:23:26,160 --> 00:23:29,520
Speaker 1: my first this was like my first I think, I

469
00:23:29,560 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: want to say this is my first catch. I really

470
00:23:31,760 --> 00:23:35,159
Speaker 1: gave up in uh when I first got here and

471
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:37,040
Speaker 1: it was a touchdown the kiddo in the back of

472
00:23:37,119 --> 00:23:39,840
Speaker 1: the end zone in the stadium with all the fans there,

473
00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:42,000
Speaker 1: I was that was like my welcome to the NFL.

474
00:23:42,359 --> 00:23:45,679
Speaker 1: I was because he they lined him up and go line,

475
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,159
Speaker 1: so I was only thinking, I was thinking fade. So

476
00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,640
Speaker 1: I shot my hands. I tried to get on them quick.

477
00:23:52,240 --> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: They put the ball in there. He grabbed me and

478
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:59,840
Speaker 1: tossed me and I flew and I was like where

479
00:23:59,880 --> 00:24:02,520
Speaker 1: the flag? And he jumped up and spiked the ball

480
00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:05,600
Speaker 1: and that was that was that moment right there. I

481
00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,640
Speaker 1: was like, I can't deal with that. I can't keep

482
00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:12,040
Speaker 1: it that. That can't keep happening. That can't happen though,

483
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,200
Speaker 1: right Yeah, Yeah, that was like my welcome to the

484
00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: NFL when I first got here. That's funny, that's a

485
00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,120
Speaker 1: that's a good one right there. Man. Yeah, you can't.

486
00:24:20,119 --> 00:24:22,239
Speaker 1: You can't put your hands on him, especially down there,

487
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:25,080
Speaker 1: because he's just gonna try to believe. Yeah, what it

488
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,800
Speaker 1: surprised you about the league so far? You know, obviously

489
00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:30,000
Speaker 1: it's cool to see you guy, saw you growing up.

490
00:24:30,280 --> 00:24:32,879
Speaker 1: You know, I've known Fatty forever. I got to some

491
00:24:33,080 --> 00:24:35,240
Speaker 1: visit y'all when you you were in high school. But

492
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,600
Speaker 1: what what if anything has surprised you about the league

493
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:42,440
Speaker 1: or hasn't surprised What really surprised me is that teams

494
00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:46,960
Speaker 1: really run the same scheme, like right, like they attacked, say,

495
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:50,120
Speaker 1: they attacked the defense the same I was really surprised

496
00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 1: by that. I was like, Nah, that can't be real,

497
00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,719
Speaker 1: Like they're not just gonna run the same uh special

498
00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,159
Speaker 1: follow digs like like I couldn't believe that, Like and

499
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,040
Speaker 1: then when I started actually see it, it starts slowing

500
00:25:02,080 --> 00:25:04,080
Speaker 1: down for me. Right, That's that's when I tell that

501
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 1: to people. I try to tell that to young guys

502
00:25:05,880 --> 00:25:08,480
Speaker 1: all the time, like, hey, just that's gonna surprise you.

503
00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 1: It's different than college and college. You're gonna see six

504
00:25:10,920 --> 00:25:15,680
Speaker 1: seven different schemes. Yeah, you're gonna see spread, You're gonna

505
00:25:15,720 --> 00:25:18,480
Speaker 1: see condence. You're gonna see Stanford just running the ball

506
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: with gold line. You're gonna see honest in the league.

507
00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,040
Speaker 1: You're gonna see West Coast with a little bit of

508
00:25:24,080 --> 00:25:26,760
Speaker 1: sprinkles here, a little bit of this here. They're gonna

509
00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:32,560
Speaker 1: steal three plays from the team you just played, Like like, hey,

510
00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:36,000
Speaker 1: if I know these fift team plays, I'm good. Yeah.

511
00:25:36,400 --> 00:25:40,480
Speaker 1: That that was really shocking to me. It was crazy, right,

512
00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:42,640
Speaker 1: And you keep thinking that it's gonna you're gonna last

513
00:25:42,680 --> 00:25:44,199
Speaker 1: in this league at all the time because they get

514
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:47,160
Speaker 1: more creative. They don't you think they do over the years.

515
00:25:47,200 --> 00:25:49,400
Speaker 1: You'll be like, yeah, they're gonna probably change stuff once

516
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:51,760
Speaker 1: they know I know when to go away that one

517
00:25:51,840 --> 00:25:53,840
Speaker 1: coming on the dig I know that, so they're gonna

518
00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 1: probably mix it up. Yeah, it was. It was certain

519
00:25:57,760 --> 00:26:00,399
Speaker 1: some teams that they would like do it different. Kansas

520
00:26:00,440 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 1: City in the preseason, Like I I went with that

521
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:06,360
Speaker 1: that special fall of digs, and they ran, they ran

522
00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,320
Speaker 1: like a digging up and but I was still in

523
00:26:09,320 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 1: a good position to make it play. But that's it

524
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,280
Speaker 1: kind of stuff sounds good when you don't got Nicholas

525
00:26:14,440 --> 00:26:17,720
Speaker 1: John Bosta and Eric car Instead breathing down your neck

526
00:26:17,920 --> 00:26:20,320
Speaker 1: and yeah. Yeah, so they're gonna have a tough time

527
00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:22,479
Speaker 1: blocking them, so they don't really run double moves out

528
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:24,800
Speaker 1: of that because it's already a seventh step. You gotta

529
00:26:24,840 --> 00:26:26,760
Speaker 1: hit your back butt and let it go. But they'll

530
00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,000
Speaker 1: try it. But that's just to keep your honest. That's

531
00:26:29,040 --> 00:26:32,120
Speaker 1: just to be like I ain't yeah every time. Yeah,

532
00:26:33,640 --> 00:26:35,679
Speaker 1: so where are you living at? First off? Because it's

533
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:42,040
Speaker 1: expensive out there. Oh yeah, I'm standing u, Santa Santa Clair. Okay, yeah, okay, yeah,

Speaker 1: I mean, coming from l A, I knew it was expensive,

538
00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 1: but this is different. It's different. I mean you got

539
00:26:56,520 --> 00:27:01,800
Speaker 1: one bed rooms and starting that. Man, at least in

540
00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:03,400
Speaker 1: that l A you could kind of feel like you're

541
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,639
Speaker 1: doing something you know that's that's just crazy. Who's like,

542
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:10,760
Speaker 1: who's like the guy on the team you hang with

543
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:14,800
Speaker 1: the most. Um. I kind of deal with my class

544
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:19,560
Speaker 1: more like kind of Ambry Sam Womack, you know rookies,

545
00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: Like I kind of stick like, you know, with the

546
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:25,440
Speaker 1: rookie class. Yeah, the young guys, you know. Uh, I

547
00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,800
Speaker 1: mean I would. I'll be hanging out with older guys too,

548
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 1: like I'll be with debos sometimes, you know. I'm trying. Yeah,

549
00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 1: but mostly I woll stick to the rookie class, which

550
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,679
Speaker 1: corners like you know, whether they're playing now or played before.

551
00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,880
Speaker 1: Have you studied and tried to emulate put a little

552
00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,000
Speaker 1: tricks to your game? Oh yeah, I'll watched your your film,

553
00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,800
Speaker 1: your film. I was just like when I had d

554
00:27:48,920 --> 00:27:51,000
Speaker 1: mned you and then we was talking about, you know,

555
00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:53,920
Speaker 1: the Arizona game and you're saying, don't make it bigger

556
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: than what it is. I went back and watched your

557
00:27:56,119 --> 00:27:58,040
Speaker 1: film and I just see how you was playing stuff.

558
00:27:58,359 --> 00:28:00,639
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right, I can add this in the

559
00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:04,480
Speaker 1: mind and just ask some stuff to it. Yeah, yeah,

560
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:07,639
Speaker 1: I appreciate that. I appreciate that. I'll be trying man

561
00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,159
Speaker 1: you know, you get out there, you gotta know what

562
00:28:10,240 --> 00:28:11,760
Speaker 1: you can do and what you can't do in the

563
00:28:11,800 --> 00:28:14,000
Speaker 1: game may bigger than what it is. The NFC Championship

564
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,000
Speaker 1: is what it is, you know what I mean. It's

565
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,359
Speaker 1: gonna be a ball out there. It's gonna be a field.

566
00:28:18,440 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 1: You're gonna put your cleats on, your helmet on, you're

567
00:28:20,720 --> 00:28:22,359
Speaker 1: gonna strap it up, and you wanna dance, you know,

568
00:28:22,560 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 1: and out there on that island, only a couple of

569
00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:28,760
Speaker 1: people know how to really go on. Only a table

570
00:28:29,400 --> 00:28:31,600
Speaker 1: high feeling on that third and two when you gotta

571
00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,840
Speaker 1: get that stop. But when you gotta get that stop

572
00:28:34,040 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 1: or or or third nine for the game, you know, well,

573
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:40,680
Speaker 1: it's it's different, and you can whether you give up

574
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:42,920
Speaker 1: a few catches or you pick everything like you still

575
00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:44,840
Speaker 1: gotta line up up and they don't care what you

576
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,880
Speaker 1: did at the last play. And these receivers get the

577
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:50,240
Speaker 1: sub out, you know, they get tired after a couple

578
00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:53,200
Speaker 1: of plays. They get to tap their helmet and bring somebody.

579
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: We don't get the sub out, baby out here. Strap

580
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:59,560
Speaker 1: And that's what people people don't understand that people are

581
00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,960
Speaker 1: like people like receivers, harder like na nothing, yeah, nothing, corner.

582
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:06,240
Speaker 1: I mean, you could play you got ninety nine good

583
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: players and that one bad player to kill your whole day,

584
00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,080
Speaker 1: kill your whole day, kill your whole day, kill your

585
00:29:12,120 --> 00:29:16,080
Speaker 1: whole everything. And you could play plays. You could play

586
00:29:16,120 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: a hundred in six plays, and they could play forty

587
00:29:18,280 --> 00:29:21,520
Speaker 1: five plays and maybe like, look he had seven catches

588
00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:29,560
Speaker 1: for a hundred and thirty yards. He the best doubts. Yeah, yeah,

589
00:29:29,680 --> 00:29:32,200
Speaker 1: that's that's that's exactly how it beating and then the

590
00:29:32,280 --> 00:29:35,120
Speaker 1: fans beating it. I mean, that's that's one thing that

591
00:29:35,280 --> 00:29:37,880
Speaker 1: really get it don't get to me, but I just

592
00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 1: like just how they seen me a Seattle game. I

593
00:29:40,680 --> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: was liking the tweets. You know before I already already

594
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,120
Speaker 1: knew the type of game I was coming in to

595
00:29:45,240 --> 00:29:47,240
Speaker 1: try to have, and I knew I was gonna do it.

596
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:49,040
Speaker 1: So that's why I kind of I was liking the

597
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,120
Speaker 1: tweets like, oh, y'all think I'm trash, I think I'm garbage,

598
00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:53,960
Speaker 1: I need to be benched, you know all that stuff.

599
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:55,760
Speaker 1: I was just liking all that. I mean, it just

600
00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,080
Speaker 1: it just fueled me up, like it didn't didn't tear

601
00:29:58,160 --> 00:30:00,800
Speaker 1: me down at all, right, right, right, you add that

602
00:30:00,880 --> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: chip on your shoulder. Yeah, that's why they call you

603
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 1: the Hyena. Yeah. Well it's gonna be a fun matchup.

604
00:30:09,120 --> 00:30:10,840
Speaker 1: I'm so proud of you, man, I'm proud of what
