1
00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: We are back with the Falcon's Audible, presented by AT

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: and T. And look who is in the house. I

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:10,040
Speaker 1: am not one to direct attention to myself, but I've

4
00:00:10,039 --> 00:00:13,160
Speaker 1: been talking to these guys through a computer computer monitor.

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: Excuse me for probably I don't know, a year and

6
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:20,239
Speaker 1: a half Sam to do this last year, but this year.

7
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:22,320
Speaker 1: It just took a little while for me to get

8
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: in studio with the guys. But look I'm here yet,

9
00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:29,880
Speaker 1: no longer a holograd. He's intelligent, but he's not artificial intelligent.

10
00:00:32,120 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: Oh gosh. So we are back here with the Falcon's Audible.

11
00:00:34,400 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 1: Thanks again for joining us. Let me give you a

12
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:38,320
Speaker 1: quick rundown of what we're gonna be covering today in

13
00:00:38,360 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 1: this podcast. We're gonna take out our magic wand and

14
00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,280
Speaker 1: you know what, I forgot to actually get my prop

15
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,640
Speaker 1: our magic wand. Something that we are gonna change from

16
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,919
Speaker 1: the Falcons game last weekends against Washington. We're gonna rate

17
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: our concern level on the Falcons finishing games. Obviously they

18
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 1: were in the driver's seat, they were not able to

19
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:57,480
Speaker 1: finish the game. We're gonna talk a little bit about

20
00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:02,640
Speaker 1: cordarrel score Daryl Patterson that he had last weekend. We'll

21
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:04,480
Speaker 1: get into a little bit of a debate about the

22
00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:07,080
Speaker 1: Sunday night football matchup where you were impressed with Tom

23
00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: Brady or Bill Belichick. And then we will take a

24
00:01:09,280 --> 00:01:11,680
Speaker 1: look ahead at the Falcons matchup against the Jets as

25
00:01:11,720 --> 00:01:14,600
Speaker 1: they travel, as they say, across the pond to play

26
00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: in one. So let's go ahead and get right into it.

27
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 1: We will talk about this matchup against the Washington football

28
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: team last weekend. Guys, I want to do this magic Wand. Okay,

29
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:26,800
Speaker 1: so let's get into the fourth quarter. Okay, the Falcons

30
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:28,960
Speaker 1: are up by eight points, they get the ball back.

31
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,440
Speaker 1: I believe there was somewhere around twelve forty five twelve

32
00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: forty eight left in the game. Yeah, here's kind of

33
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:36,720
Speaker 1: the rule. Okay, maybe you end up bending the rules

34
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:43,240
Speaker 1: a little bit. We will. We will magic Wand or

35
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:46,760
Speaker 1: maybe your magic eracer and change something that happened in

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:50,080
Speaker 1: the game, because maybe it was the wrong decision, or

37
00:01:50,200 --> 00:01:53,160
Speaker 1: you think something could have happened differently to change the outcome.

38
00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 1: What would it be. Yeah, and he just stole my

39
00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 1: magic cheat right off the start. Okay, all right, go ahead,

40
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:01,880
Speaker 1: be very transparent, bend rills the cheat I'm gonna bend it.

41
00:02:01,920 --> 00:02:04,520
Speaker 1: I'm waiting in my magic wand and I'm gonna take

42
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,480
Speaker 1: myself all the way back to the first quarter. The

43
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,359
Speaker 1: opening drive of the game, Atlanta puts a number of

44
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:13,800
Speaker 1: players again, eight minute drive and you get down there,

45
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,080
Speaker 1: third and seven from the seven yard line, third and

46
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,880
Speaker 1: goal from the seven. Ryan tries to shove the ball

47
00:02:19,919 --> 00:02:22,440
Speaker 1: down the field, the Pits releasing vertically. If you remember

48
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 1: it was a three by one set, he releases vertically

49
00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,080
Speaker 1: up the field. Had another player run into the corner

50
00:02:28,280 --> 00:02:30,959
Speaker 1: and alma ze Kis is running the shallow drag rout.

51
00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 1: If I could re rack it, they add really good protection.

52
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:39,000
Speaker 1: Take a look at pits, take the coverage there and

53
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:42,160
Speaker 1: find z Kis, who's wide open coming inside on the

54
00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: drag rout. It's a walk in touchdown, guys. And that

55
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 1: eight minute drive finishes with a demoralizing touchdown as opposed

56
00:02:49,919 --> 00:02:52,120
Speaker 1: to who we got off the field and only gave

57
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,600
Speaker 1: up three and then you get the touchdown and the

58
00:02:54,639 --> 00:02:58,760
Speaker 1: next drive, now it's fourteen nothing and the game looks

59
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,320
Speaker 1: completely different. Let me throw this back at you as

60
00:03:01,320 --> 00:03:04,799
Speaker 1: a quarterback now, Matt Ryan has had a phenomenal career,

61
00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,760
Speaker 1: right so you don't want to think that he's locking

62
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:10,120
Speaker 1: into a target. But you get Kyle Pitts, the prize

63
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: tight end, the matchup nightmare down in the red zone.

64
00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: That's where tight ends become a Do you think maybe

65
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: he locked too much into Kyle Pitts saying there's no

66
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: way that he loses this matchup and doesn't actually read

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: the play like he needed to, because it sounds like

68
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 1: he just didn't read it and sees the key is

69
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,359
Speaker 1: coming across the formation. I think your bang on, I

70
00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:32,919
Speaker 1: think I think it's the safest throw right. I got

71
00:03:32,919 --> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: a six foot six tight end that's got a seven

72
00:03:35,360 --> 00:03:39,760
Speaker 1: two wingspan. I can throw the ball crossball, crossball, high

73
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,720
Speaker 1: height or higher. He's gonna catch it, or the first

74
00:03:43,760 --> 00:03:46,320
Speaker 1: guy in the section of the saturing sex is gonna

75
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 1: catch it. It's my safest throwing I get out of

76
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:50,400
Speaker 1: here with three as opposed to hanging on to it

77
00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 1: and finding Zakis who he did it at the end

78
00:03:53,400 --> 00:03:55,080
Speaker 1: of the game last time. Remember at the end of

79
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,520
Speaker 1: the first half last time founds a Kias after looking

80
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:00,600
Speaker 1: at Pitts left founds a Kias against the Giants the touchdown.

81
00:04:00,920 --> 00:04:04,280
Speaker 1: Very similar play here, just wasn't patient enough. I'd love

82
00:04:04,320 --> 00:04:06,600
Speaker 1: to be able to and rerac lee that you like

83
00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,280
Speaker 1: what I did there two weeks in a row. Yeah,

84
00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,040
Speaker 1: just to add to that, there are plays you work

85
00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:15,480
Speaker 1: on every single week in practice, and I'm sure I

86
00:04:15,560 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 1: guarantee you that was the number one play they wanted

87
00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:21,080
Speaker 1: in the red zone there, and they probably worked on

88
00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:23,160
Speaker 1: it a hundred times that week and said this is

89
00:04:23,160 --> 00:04:24,920
Speaker 1: what we're gonna get and if you throw it at

90
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,320
Speaker 1: that high point. And the crazy thing is he made

91
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,000
Speaker 1: that play. We've all seen him make that play in

92
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: practice in the game, and he probably likely said I

93
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: want to see if I can get my big man

94
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 1: a shot at And just for the people that are watching,

95
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: one of the things you gotta remember when you're watching

96
00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: a football game, when you get deep in the red

97
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: zone and you see quarterbacks throw the football high, there's

98
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,159
Speaker 1: a reason for that. They are coached to throw the

99
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: football face masker higher, especially when you get a target

100
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: like Kyle Pitts, because it's the hardest throw to defend defensively.

101
00:04:53,040 --> 00:04:54,600
Speaker 1: So don't think when you get down in the red

102
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:56,640
Speaker 1: zone and a quarterback throws the ball high, it was

103
00:04:56,640 --> 00:04:59,600
Speaker 1: a bad throw. Nine times, maybe nine point nine times

104
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 1: out of t and he is trying to throw the

105
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 1: football up there. Okay, DJ, pass it off your magic

106
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:08,920
Speaker 1: wand time. What are you changing from last weekend's game?

107
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,200
Speaker 1: All right, I'm actually going to because you guys always

108
00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 1: say I'm the guy who always breaks the rules, it

109
00:05:12,880 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: goes a little bit longer, or you know, we want

110
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,920
Speaker 1: to quick. Some say quick, but Arts broke the rule.

111
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,440
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna stay within the rules. I'm gonna stay

112
00:05:20,440 --> 00:05:21,960
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter. I'm gonna go to that next

113
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: to last drive where we go three and out, and

114
00:05:23,839 --> 00:05:25,520
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go to that first play where we get

115
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:29,279
Speaker 1: a negative three yard run. And you watched the film

116
00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:30,520
Speaker 1: and Arts just talking about there are a lot of

117
00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 1: things that happened within that play that probably was the

118
00:05:33,800 --> 00:05:35,520
Speaker 1: reason why it didn't work or why you know, it

119
00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 1: should have went to Falcon's way. But for me, my

120
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,599
Speaker 1: mind goes to in that instance, everybody knows you want

121
00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,080
Speaker 1: to run the football, Washington loaded up the box. They

122
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,719
Speaker 1: got seven eight guys in the box, and I'm thinking

123
00:05:47,960 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 1: throughout that ball game, you were very successful when you

124
00:05:51,279 --> 00:05:53,040
Speaker 1: went there a little short play action and you hit

125
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 1: maybe a little skinny post behind it or a little

126
00:05:55,320 --> 00:05:57,960
Speaker 1: slamt behind it, you get really on the outside, or

127
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 1: you could even put Kyle Pitt's big body on the outside,

128
00:06:01,080 --> 00:06:03,880
Speaker 1: and let's go a little play action here, increase it

129
00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:05,920
Speaker 1: and give you a chance to throw a little ball

130
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: there right now. I perfectly understand the call. I understand

131
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: why you run the football. You're trying to run the

132
00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:14,240
Speaker 1: clock out. Absolutely, I guarantee you. But since we got

133
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,960
Speaker 1: the magic one man, ye, hey, we got a little

134
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:19,560
Speaker 1: hindsight here, I say, let's throw the ruck there. Give

135
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,760
Speaker 1: I got a chance to make a play. And now

136
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,960
Speaker 1: maybe you pick up first down, maybe you pick up

137
00:06:24,120 --> 00:06:27,279
Speaker 1: seven eight yards on that particular play, But it's something

138
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 1: out of the norm of what was expected from the

139
00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:32,840
Speaker 1: defense who were selling out on that play for the run.

140
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,240
Speaker 1: And I just think you might have had a better

141
00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:38,440
Speaker 1: chance to trying to find a completion there as opposed

142
00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 1: to trying to run into the team. So it's so

143
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:43,040
Speaker 1: interesting you say that it's a great point, because guys,

144
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:45,560
Speaker 1: this is this is the interesting spot when you get

145
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter and you've got a lead, but

146
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:49,760
Speaker 1: there's still plenty of time on the clock. As a

147
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 1: play caller, how do you approach play calling right and

148
00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:55,920
Speaker 1: it's kind of like you can never win, of course

149
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,200
Speaker 1: if you end up losing the game, because if you

150
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 1: run the football and you get stopped, they people will

151
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,839
Speaker 1: say why didn't you throw the ball? And then if

152
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:08,200
Speaker 1: you throw the ball you go three and out they're saying,

153
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:10,480
Speaker 1: why don't you run the football and just run the

154
00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 1: clock out. So obviously when you come up on the

155
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,960
Speaker 1: short side, that's when everybody's second guesses you. But as

156
00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,040
Speaker 1: a play caller, it's not always that easy. Arch Like,

157
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 1: you can't just sit there and say, oh, you should

158
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:23,320
Speaker 1: have thrown the football, because sometimes the logical decision is

159
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:25,560
Speaker 1: run it and run the clock out. Right, Yeah, And

160
00:07:26,000 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 1: the measurement there is you were right on. It was

161
00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:34,360
Speaker 1: three fifty two left. Where is the line of debarcation

162
00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,600
Speaker 1: here is to when you begin thinking clock and eating

163
00:07:37,640 --> 00:07:40,480
Speaker 1: their timeouts, or when you think, okay, I've got to

164
00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:42,440
Speaker 1: get a first down regardless of what it means I

165
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: throw it or not. So they were right on the edge.

166
00:07:44,920 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 1: I remember four minute offenses when you're trying to grind

167
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:50,800
Speaker 1: the clock down and win it. To me, I think

168
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: that that's just outside the range. When I begin to

169
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:56,480
Speaker 1: think about trying to eat clock. My number one priority

170
00:07:56,520 --> 00:07:58,360
Speaker 1: there was to get a first down, and I would

171
00:07:58,400 --> 00:08:01,520
Speaker 1: agree with shock now that was illegalities that went on.

172
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: That's the right word. They got away with a defensive

173
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:10,040
Speaker 1: holding called it really really thwarted the play. Yeah, but yeah,

174
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:12,520
Speaker 1: when you think about a little rpo there or something

175
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:14,760
Speaker 1: like that where you get in behind, how much let

176
00:08:14,760 --> 00:08:17,680
Speaker 1: me ask you, guys, as a debate, how much does

177
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 1: Atlanta's inability to catch the ball consistently in the game.

178
00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,440
Speaker 1: Ridley had three drops in the game. I think we

179
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: probably had six balls dropped in the game. If I'm

180
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: a play caller and I want to run clock as

181
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,680
Speaker 1: well as get a first down, am I thinking? And

182
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:34,680
Speaker 1: you can't hedge your bet and say, oh, my guy's

183
00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:37,040
Speaker 1: gonna drop it. But how much does that put some

184
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,720
Speaker 1: hesitant hesitancy in your mind? I don't want to throw it? Yeah, exactly.

185
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,440
Speaker 1: I mean it could be the same thing if if

186
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:44,679
Speaker 1: you have a running back that's caught the football up

187
00:08:44,679 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 1: a couple of times in the game. You might have

188
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:48,839
Speaker 1: a stud running back that this is his job to

189
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: grind the clock out, but maybe in the first half

190
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 1: he put the ball in the turf two times. The

191
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,200
Speaker 1: same thing could be said Dave you're not gonna sit

192
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,160
Speaker 1: there and think he's gonna fumble again. But you're thinking

193
00:08:58,160 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: about it right, like we can't afford the ball to

194
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,960
Speaker 1: come out DJ. Do you agree? Oh? Absolutely, And I'll

195
00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,640
Speaker 1: kind of add to that to the point of I've

196
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 1: heard people say why not have eighty four in the

197
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 1: game there because he had the hot hand. Well, the

198
00:09:10,760 --> 00:09:13,360
Speaker 1: big part of you bringing Mike Davis here is too

199
00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:15,439
Speaker 1: be able to close games out in that fashion. And

200
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,320
Speaker 1: then people say, oh, yeah, Cordell had a good game,

201
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:21,280
Speaker 1: But also, my man, Mike Davis catches a ball in

202
00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:24,080
Speaker 1: the flat and runs through ninety four people and gets

203
00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: into the end zone. Like he shows you he could

204
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,200
Speaker 1: be physical with the ball in his hand. So I'm

205
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,079
Speaker 1: not going on to the point of a well, one

206
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 1: guy had a hot hand, another Mike Davis is a

207
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:36,520
Speaker 1: bruiser type of back. So you're absolutely right. It can

208
00:09:36,559 --> 00:09:39,040
Speaker 1: go both ways with how you think about calling those

209
00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 1: players going into the latter part of the ball game,

210
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:44,240
Speaker 1: depending on what they've been doing. Oh guys, look, I

211
00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: had to play too, But I don't want to belabor

212
00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:47,800
Speaker 1: the point on the magic wand because I feel like

213
00:09:47,840 --> 00:09:50,079
Speaker 1: there's some other topics that we want to discuss because

214
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,120
Speaker 1: you mentioned they brought in Mike Davis to close out

215
00:09:53,120 --> 00:09:55,839
Speaker 1: the game, to close out games to the Falcons, right,

216
00:09:55,920 --> 00:10:01,400
Speaker 1: So switching gears here, what's our concern left on finishing games?

217
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,719
Speaker 1: Because I think it's a great segue talking about Nike

218
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: Mike Davis needing that dominating running back to break a

219
00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 1: couple of tackles to pick up a first down, to

220
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 1: keep the clock going, to force the opposing team to

221
00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,320
Speaker 1: burn a couple of timeouts. You thought maybe the Falcons

222
00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:18,880
Speaker 1: turned the corner a week ago against the Giants. But Chocko,

223
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:20,640
Speaker 1: let me come right back to you. Where is your

224
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,480
Speaker 1: concerned level here? And I'm not going to sit here

225
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,000
Speaker 1: and give you a meter. You gotta give me a

226
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,000
Speaker 1: five to a ten, But just where are you at?

227
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: Because if you talk about the best football teams and

228
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:34,160
Speaker 1: this is any level, guys, it's you got to execute situations. Yeah, right,

229
00:10:34,440 --> 00:10:39,480
Speaker 1: third down, four minute, short yardage, goal line, closing out games.

230
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,440
Speaker 1: You know what I say it is I think I'm

231
00:10:42,520 --> 00:10:45,680
Speaker 1: going off a two game span of we're still too

232
00:10:45,720 --> 00:10:47,920
Speaker 1: early to tell. And I'll say that because the first

233
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,760
Speaker 1: game verse Philly, we really who was out of the

234
00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:51,240
Speaker 1: ball game? Where at the end, you really didn't have

235
00:10:51,280 --> 00:10:53,760
Speaker 1: a chance versus Tampa. Yeah, you came back at the end,

236
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:55,720
Speaker 1: but you had some deflections and before you know it,

237
00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:58,280
Speaker 1: you're down, you know, fourteen seventeen or whatever it is,

238
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,240
Speaker 1: and you're not able to do it. You mentioned last

239
00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,199
Speaker 1: week or's the Giants where you go when you finish

240
00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,760
Speaker 1: that ballgame, and this week you don't finish it. I

241
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: still think because we have a new staff, you have

242
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of new guys in a bunch of different

243
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,160
Speaker 1: new spots that are learning how to play with each other.

244
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,280
Speaker 1: You're still trying to figure out how to close games.

245
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:17,360
Speaker 1: So I think it's still too early to say this

246
00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,439
Speaker 1: team is like the two and twenty team that didn't

247
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:22,760
Speaker 1: finish ballgames at the end. I think you still need

248
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,599
Speaker 1: to have more on tape to say, Okay, this is

249
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,760
Speaker 1: a trend or this is something that we're starting to

250
00:11:27,840 --> 00:11:29,760
Speaker 1: see because we've seen him do it last week and

251
00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:31,200
Speaker 1: then you didn't do it this week. So you have

252
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:33,920
Speaker 1: a mixture of both. So I think you still need

253
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,800
Speaker 1: more to sell if this is a team that is

254
00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:38,840
Speaker 1: in that realm of not being able to finish or

255
00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: they can't finish. This episode in part brought to you

273
00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,840
Speaker 1: So you guys mentioned Cordarrel Patterson where he's getting a

274
00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:52,080
Speaker 1: nickname of score Darryl Patterson. So I want to ask

275
00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:54,319
Speaker 1: you guys and aich I'm gonna start with you Is

276
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:58,959
Speaker 1: there anything that you see, like, why is Cordaryl Patterson

277
00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:02,680
Speaker 1: coming into his own with Atlanta when he's kind of

278
00:13:02,720 --> 00:13:04,280
Speaker 1: been a little bit of a journeyman. I mean, if

279
00:13:04,280 --> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: he had eleven touches in a game last week and

280
00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: he scores three touchdowns, if you look at the numbers,

281
00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: not necessarily great, But this guy, it's almost like an

282
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,800
Speaker 1: exciting play is waiting to happen. Is this as simple

283
00:13:15,840 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: as some guys need a change of scenery and maybe

284
00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,720
Speaker 1: this is the place for him. Maybe it's the play calling.

285
00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: What are you seeing from Cordel Patterson that's making him

286
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:26,280
Speaker 1: have so much success? Yeah, because this is what his

287
00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,720
Speaker 1: third stop right started in Minnesota, then which is Chicago.

288
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:34,080
Speaker 1: So I think first of all, it shows you some

289
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 1: of what the brilliance can look like on the offensive

290
00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:38,720
Speaker 1: side of the ball, because, as you mentioned, this is

291
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 1: a guy that had not exploded this way as an

292
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:45,600
Speaker 1: offensive weapon. So it gives you an idea of what's

293
00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 1: going on with Dave Ragone and Arthur Smith to be

294
00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 1: able to design the ways they're getting this guy the ball.

295
00:13:50,960 --> 00:13:54,720
Speaker 1: His versatility is off the charts. He can line up out.

296
00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:56,760
Speaker 1: Why does a receiver outside the numbers he can line

297
00:13:56,800 --> 00:13:58,920
Speaker 1: up in the slot, he can motion him, you can

298
00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 1: handing the ball in the back field. The variety with

299
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:04,880
Speaker 1: which they're using him, I mean shock designs and shows

300
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,040
Speaker 1: a play on Elena falcons dot Com. You'll be able

301
00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:09,440
Speaker 1: to see where he's got a He releases out of

302
00:14:09,440 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 1: the backfield, but it releases on the far side of

303
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:13,640
Speaker 1: the formation to get where he needs to get to,

304
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:17,800
Speaker 1: runs through three defenders, and scores. He's physical. I think

305
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:20,520
Speaker 1: what it is is as a guy, as you suggested,

306
00:14:20,960 --> 00:14:24,000
Speaker 1: he's in a different place. He's comfortable and he realizes

307
00:14:24,080 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 1: his value to the team. But it's also the defensive

308
00:14:26,840 --> 00:14:30,560
Speaker 1: people don't know what to declare right, what is he

309
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:32,440
Speaker 1: he's lined up in the slot, he runs right over

310
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,360
Speaker 1: the top everybody like a receiver in a slot for

311
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:36,760
Speaker 1: a touchdown. The next time, it's the play you describe

312
00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,360
Speaker 1: where he comes out of the backfields of running back

313
00:14:38,360 --> 00:14:41,560
Speaker 1: and just dropping the football. Scores, he caught the he

314
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:44,520
Speaker 1: caught the back shoulder fade as a outside receiver outside

315
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,440
Speaker 1: the numbers. Three different ways for him to score. I'm

316
00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 1: excited about it, but I think it also shows you

317
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:51,760
Speaker 1: if you're a fan and you're looking, what is this

318
00:14:51,840 --> 00:14:54,040
Speaker 1: coaching staff giving me look at what they're doing with

319
00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,680
Speaker 1: Cordereol Patterson and what could they do if they get

320
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:59,680
Speaker 1: more guys like him where you just don't know where

321
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,720
Speaker 1: the ball I was gonna go. Yeah, and I want

322
00:15:02,760 --> 00:15:05,120
Speaker 1: to add to that real quick record, he talked about

323
00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:08,240
Speaker 1: the fact of defense is not knowing what to declare

324
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:09,880
Speaker 1: him because there are times he come in the ball

325
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:11,480
Speaker 1: game and you have him and Mike Davids in the

326
00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:15,240
Speaker 1: game and you're saying, oh, is this twenty two person?

327
00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: It is the two backs? I mean, is it is

328
00:15:16,880 --> 00:15:18,920
Speaker 1: it twenty person? What is this? Or it can be

329
00:15:18,960 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 1: eleven because we can see him line up at receiver

330
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 1: and the eleven minute point in the ball game going

331
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,800
Speaker 1: into the third quarter, he had lined up seven times

332
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,280
Speaker 1: in the slot, three times a receiver, seven times they

333
00:15:30,360 --> 00:15:33,040
Speaker 1: running back, and was four plays on special teams. Yeah.

334
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,440
Speaker 1: I mean, the dude is everywhere, and that's what makes

335
00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,440
Speaker 1: it so fun is the guy can't line up all

336
00:15:37,480 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 1: over the field and have that kind of advantage. And

337
00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:42,280
Speaker 1: you mentioned David grown I remember David Gonna talking about

338
00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 1: before the season started he had been trying to get

339
00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,520
Speaker 1: Cordelle Patterson for the last two three years in his offense.

340
00:15:47,840 --> 00:15:50,560
Speaker 1: So that tells you in his mind he already knew

341
00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: how he wanted to use him, and now he's gotten

342
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: with Arthur Smith and they said, all right, this is

343
00:15:54,480 --> 00:15:56,160
Speaker 1: the way we could use this guy. We could put

344
00:15:56,160 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: this guy in a lot of different ways. And you

345
00:15:58,400 --> 00:16:01,480
Speaker 1: can tell he feels as though he is a big

346
00:16:01,520 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 1: factor because because every time he tells you the football

347
00:16:03,880 --> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: we talked about it, he wants to go score. He's

348
00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,360
Speaker 1: running through guys and he's having fun with it, and

349
00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: I think ultimately other guys will see it and it'll

350
00:16:11,400 --> 00:16:13,840
Speaker 1: definitely kind of waying off those guys as well. It's

351
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:16,280
Speaker 1: like he's getting the ball and he feels like he's

352
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,120
Speaker 1: gonna make a play, like he's untouchable. Arch can you

353
00:16:19,560 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: can you remember a time in your career where like

354
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,680
Speaker 1: you played with a guy where it was like every

355
00:16:24,680 --> 00:16:26,960
Speaker 1: time he put his football, his hands on the football,

356
00:16:27,360 --> 00:16:30,120
Speaker 1: something magical was gonna happen. Yeah, it's it's the it's

357
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: the Michael Jordan's shrug a game against the Trail Plazers.

358
00:16:34,680 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 1: That's certainly what it felt like for Cordell Patterson this

359
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,960
Speaker 1: weekend wherever he got the football, Shock just described it.

360
00:16:40,040 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 1: He was gonna score or make some good happen. I

361
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,320
Speaker 1: go back to college. I had a kid named Tracy

362
00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:46,840
Speaker 1: Henderson's an All American wide receiver for me, and he

363
00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:48,960
Speaker 1: had a game where he caught sixteen balls. We're playing

364
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:52,000
Speaker 1: at Kansas State, and he caught sixteen passes for somewhere

365
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:54,200
Speaker 1: around two hundred yards and a couple of scores. But

366
00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:57,440
Speaker 1: I felt like I could throw the ball anywhere around

367
00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 1: his body. He's snagging at one hand it down on

368
00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: the ground. I mean, I wasn't that actor, and he's

369
00:17:02,640 --> 00:17:05,320
Speaker 1: making grabs all over the place. I just felt like

370
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:09,119
Speaker 1: I'm watching a guy that's in the zone, that's brilliant

371
00:17:09,160 --> 00:17:12,000
Speaker 1: at doing what he does. And that's the thing that

372
00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 1: came to mind for me when I watched Cordero. I said, Wow,

373
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 1: this looks like that performance where you just kind of

374
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 1: get chills and watch this guy get it done. Let

375
00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:22,119
Speaker 1: me just get him the ball somewhere and go to work.

376
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:24,920
Speaker 1: And Tracy had a monster today that immediately came back

377
00:17:24,920 --> 00:17:27,199
Speaker 1: in my mind. Arch probably thinking, m coach, can you

378
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: get me two or three more tracies? Because this right,

379
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: if you can find more guys like that, that's why

380
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,240
Speaker 1: you need Calvin Ridley to step up and be that

381
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,040
Speaker 1: guy that makes every catch that come now all of

382
00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:40,240
Speaker 1: a sudden, how much more difficult are you to defend?

383
00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,920
Speaker 1: But that's a great point. Now you mentioned chills, Dave,

384
00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,600
Speaker 1: and there was a game this weekend that if you

385
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,160
Speaker 1: were a Patriots fan, if you were a Tampa Bay fan,

386
00:17:48,359 --> 00:17:51,320
Speaker 1: or if you were just a football fan, maybe this

387
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,680
Speaker 1: game on Sunday night football gave you some chills. And DJ,

388
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:55,159
Speaker 1: I want to start with you. This is gonna be

389
00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:57,680
Speaker 1: our little debate segment. Maybe we end up with a debate,

390
00:17:57,720 --> 00:18:01,200
Speaker 1: maybe with an agreement. I'm not quite sure. Close game

391
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:05,000
Speaker 1: in Foxborough. Obviously Tom Brady comes out on top, but

392
00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:09,000
Speaker 1: it was like the goat against a rookie or tom

393
00:18:09,040 --> 00:18:11,760
Speaker 1: Brady against his former mentor and Bill Belichick. So the

394
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,560
Speaker 1: debates discussion is going to be who did a better job.

395
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,040
Speaker 1: Do you give the edge to Bill Belichick and how

396
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,159
Speaker 1: he was able to slow down Tom Brady in the

397
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:23,440
Speaker 1: Buccaneers offense, or do you give the edge to Tom Brady. Well,

398
00:18:23,440 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: reg knowing that I know where this guy is gonna go,

399
00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:30,000
Speaker 1: I'm gonna jump on the other side talking. I'm gonna

400
00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:31,879
Speaker 1: say it's Tom Brady. But it gives it, so we

401
00:18:31,920 --> 00:18:34,080
Speaker 1: don't have to agree. But I'm gonna say tom Brady

402
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:36,600
Speaker 1: in this instance because you look at what he was

403
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 1: walking into. This is a place where he played twenty years,

404
00:18:39,440 --> 00:18:41,719
Speaker 1: the emotion of the game. And then you think, on

405
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:43,959
Speaker 1: the other side, the guy who he's playing against I

406
00:18:44,000 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 1: heard of talking his post game say, I've seen this

407
00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:49,560
Speaker 1: guy every single day. I know exactly what this guy

408
00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:51,800
Speaker 1: will do. I know exactly what he's thinking. And to

409
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:54,119
Speaker 1: go on this game and to have to battle with

410
00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,360
Speaker 1: not just the fans, not just with the emotional coming back,

411
00:18:57,640 --> 00:18:59,680
Speaker 1: not with having to make it a cool video as

412
00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:01,840
Speaker 1: he's you know, coming back into the stadium and talking

413
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: about how cool it is to be back, but to

414
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,320
Speaker 1: actually have to play the game in those circumstances. And

415
00:19:07,359 --> 00:19:10,160
Speaker 1: then on the other side, he's looking across and he's

416
00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 1: looking at the protege that they brought in to kind

417
00:19:13,080 --> 00:19:15,680
Speaker 1: of take over and be him and to outplay him.

418
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,960
Speaker 1: Think about it, if he loses that ball game, what

419
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,800
Speaker 1: people are saying about Tom Brady and how the guy

420
00:19:21,880 --> 00:19:24,720
Speaker 1: Mac Jones actually I'll played him. But I'm gonna say

421
00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:26,560
Speaker 1: tom Brady because of all the things that he had

422
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:28,480
Speaker 1: to overcome and fight to be in that ball game

423
00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,560
Speaker 1: and to fight and to play. I know he's a veteran,

424
00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,400
Speaker 1: but it's at the end of the day, we're all

425
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,359
Speaker 1: still human, we all still get emotional about it. Yeah,

426
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:37,479
Speaker 1: And you can see him after the ball game how

427
00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:40,600
Speaker 1: much it's still meant to him, him hugging Robert Kraft,

428
00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 1: you know before the game, you know Belichick coming talking

429
00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:45,879
Speaker 1: to him at the game and sitting there talking in

430
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:48,399
Speaker 1: the locker room like this was emotionally a lot, And

431
00:19:48,440 --> 00:19:50,720
Speaker 1: it's hard to kind of separate those two even when

432
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:53,720
Speaker 1: you've played twenty plus years in the National Football League.

433
00:19:53,760 --> 00:19:55,400
Speaker 1: So I think you got to give Brady a lot

434
00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,639
Speaker 1: of credit for having his team Rady, but also having

435
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:01,000
Speaker 1: the ability better go in and play at a standard

436
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,760
Speaker 1: where he steals, able to help his team get a

437
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:05,760
Speaker 1: win in such a hustle and crazy environment that he

438
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,160
Speaker 1: spent pretty much his whole entire life and as Kays

439
00:20:08,160 --> 00:20:11,080
Speaker 1: were born there arch Do you give Brady the edge

440
00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:14,800
Speaker 1: or the architect as he talked about Bill Belichick and

441
00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:16,840
Speaker 1: the game plan that he was able to put together

442
00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: against Tampa. Yeah, Rack, without a doubt, Bill Belichick was

443
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: the winner in this game. Think about where he had

444
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:25,400
Speaker 1: to go with his team mentally on Wednesday when they

445
00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:28,200
Speaker 1: came in. Here comes the Super Bowl champs, Here comes

446
00:20:28,200 --> 00:20:30,360
Speaker 1: the goat, Here comes the guy that's got seven trophies

447
00:20:30,359 --> 00:20:33,200
Speaker 1: on his table. They're gonna be charity when he gets here.

448
00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,680
Speaker 1: He had to get his young quarterback ready to go

449
00:20:36,000 --> 00:20:38,000
Speaker 1: because he was facing the guy that had been the

450
00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:40,879
Speaker 1: man there. His young quarterback came in to play great

451
00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:44,040
Speaker 1: in the game, the former Alabama Mac Jones, and he

452
00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:47,200
Speaker 1: also had to get a defense convinced that they could

453
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:49,439
Speaker 1: beat him. So he had to build them all the

454
00:20:49,480 --> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: week long with all the talk about Brady and Brady's

455
00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,960
Speaker 1: this and Brady's that. Look at the trophies. In fact,

456
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,160
Speaker 1: when you come to the facility, you gotta walk by

457
00:20:57,240 --> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: the trophies, you gotta walk by his picture. No, Belichick

458
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:04,520
Speaker 1: had his guys dialed in. It didn't hurt that it

459
00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: was pouring down horrible commissions. Yeah, I would say Belichick

460
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:14,400
Speaker 1: has something to do with that weather as well. So

461
00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:16,800
Speaker 1: you gotta figure that Belichick got his team ready to go,

462
00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,000
Speaker 1: got his young quarterback ready to go, and he brought

463
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:22,240
Speaker 1: in bad weather with Brady. So I'd get Belichick the

464
00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:25,760
Speaker 1: w Ohs arch thinking that Belichick is just sitting here

465
00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:27,959
Speaker 1: writing game plans. And then by the way, he's like

466
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: mother Nature, bring the rain, bring it down, all right,

467
00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:35,440
Speaker 1: So I'll just go ahead and break the tie. Here,

468
00:21:35,960 --> 00:21:40,680
Speaker 1: DJ who won the game? Tom Brady gets the edge.

469
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 1: The NFL, it's all about who wins games. And yes

470
00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,440
Speaker 1: there are there was so much on the shoulders of

471
00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:48,640
Speaker 1: Mac Jones, so much on the shoulders of the Patriots,

472
00:21:48,680 --> 00:21:50,800
Speaker 1: but there was so much on the shoulders of Tom Brady.

473
00:21:51,119 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: This wasn't really the Buccaneers going back to foxboroughs. This

474
00:21:54,840 --> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: was Tom Brady going back to Foxborough. And yes, his

475
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:02,560
Speaker 1: statistics did not look great, but in the end, sometimes

476
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:04,800
Speaker 1: it might be ugly. But your job in the NFL's

477
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:07,680
Speaker 1: to do what when? Yeah, but he had mummy and

478
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:13,439
Speaker 1: daddy of so Belichick dials up the weather. Tom Brady

479
00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:15,800
Speaker 1: just brings in mom and dad. That's all it takes.

480
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 1: All right, guys, good stuff there, Okay, So let's go

481
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:20,080
Speaker 1: ahead and take a quick look. This weekend. Of course,

482
00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 1: the Falcons are going across the pond. They're gonna face

483
00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,800
Speaker 1: the New York Jets, another team with a first year

484
00:22:24,880 --> 00:22:26,640
Speaker 1: head coach. I want you guys to give us kind

485
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,680
Speaker 1: of your thoughts going into this matchup. Where do you

486
00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,000
Speaker 1: think the headspace is for Atlanta and how you see

487
00:22:31,040 --> 00:22:33,640
Speaker 1: this game end up unfolding our much like here when

488
00:22:33,680 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: you when you emerge from last week, you had really

489
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:37,640
Speaker 1: good feeling about you stuff, got to win on the road,

490
00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:40,120
Speaker 1: did a good job of of closing the game out.

491
00:22:40,119 --> 00:22:42,080
Speaker 1: We talked about that. Really did a nice job of that.

492
00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: So you came back with some energy and I thought

493
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,040
Speaker 1: that you saw that energy early in the football game.

494
00:22:46,080 --> 00:22:48,160
Speaker 1: I thought you saw the energy throughout this didn't play

495
00:22:48,160 --> 00:22:49,760
Speaker 1: one off to get the w this weekend. That's what

496
00:22:49,800 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 1: the Jets bring to the table. Jets are struggled. Their

497
00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 1: quarterbacks struggled two weeks ago through a couple intercept really

498
00:22:54,680 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 1: bad interception a couple of weeks ago. Came back. He

499
00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,440
Speaker 1: made himself better that week getting ready for the game.

500
00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:02,679
Speaker 1: They get w and they got after people on defense.

501
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 1: They would they have seven sacks in the game. Their

502
00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:07,399
Speaker 1: defense played at extremely high level. He was able to

503
00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:10,520
Speaker 1: get some of his receivers back. Jamison Crowder was back,

504
00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:12,960
Speaker 1: Denzel Mims was back, so he had some of his

505
00:23:13,040 --> 00:23:16,159
Speaker 1: weapons around. They feel pretty good about themselves, so I

506
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:18,720
Speaker 1: would say from a mental standpoint, the Jets go into

507
00:23:18,720 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 1: this game maybe in a better spot mentally than Atlanta

508
00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 1: goes into this game. So Atlanta gonna have to much

509
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:26,600
Speaker 1: like this game this last weekend where we saw so

510
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 1: many ebbs and flows of momentum, Atlanta's gonna have to

511
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:31,600
Speaker 1: go build their own momentum in this game because I

512
00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:33,880
Speaker 1: think the Jets bring it with them. Yeah, and DJ

513
00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,320
Speaker 1: obviously in this game, it's not like one team has

514
00:23:36,359 --> 00:23:38,040
Speaker 1: the advantage over the other one it comes to travel,

515
00:23:38,080 --> 00:23:40,520
Speaker 1: because they both have to travel. It's difficult, it's hard

516
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:43,040
Speaker 1: to navigate a lot of times. I think in these

517
00:23:43,080 --> 00:23:46,680
Speaker 1: games it shows your leadership and how well do your

518
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,160
Speaker 1: leaders not just your players, but your coaches as well,

519
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,600
Speaker 1: keep everybody together, keep them focused, because guys are gonna

520
00:23:52,600 --> 00:23:54,440
Speaker 1: go over there, They're gonna be tired, They're gonna want

521
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,000
Speaker 1: to go to sleep, and it's like, okay, no, we

522
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,840
Speaker 1: got we gotta get adjusted to the schedule. But how

523
00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: do you see this one on old and where Atlanta

524
00:24:01,040 --> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: is and where the Jets are right now? I love

525
00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:04,439
Speaker 1: what you mentioned. Both of you guys mentioned makes some

526
00:24:04,480 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 1: great points about how this team has to go out

527
00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:10,679
Speaker 1: and play this ball game. And from my standpoint, I

528
00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: think of it as the leader saying, okay, we had

529
00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:14,240
Speaker 1: the first quarter of the season. As we all know,

530
00:24:14,280 --> 00:24:16,720
Speaker 1: you play the first four games, that first quarters done.

531
00:24:16,880 --> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: If you have the real leaders in this locker room,

532
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,920
Speaker 1: they're gonna say, let's flush that that's gone. We can't

533
00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:23,120
Speaker 1: do anything about one in three, but we do. We're

534
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:25,720
Speaker 1: starting a second quarter here. The second quarter starts now,

535
00:24:25,840 --> 00:24:28,480
Speaker 1: and we got an opportunity to go on the road

536
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:30,160
Speaker 1: and go win a ball game versus the team that's

537
00:24:30,160 --> 00:24:33,480
Speaker 1: feeling really confident. Everybody expects the Falcons, it's like last week,

538
00:24:33,520 --> 00:24:35,360
Speaker 1: to go in and win this ball game. But as

539
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:37,320
Speaker 1: we know, you have to play the ball game. Jets

540
00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:39,639
Speaker 1: come in with huge confidence. They got a young QUARTERBA

541
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:42,000
Speaker 1: they started to feel better about themselves. But here's an

542
00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:44,800
Speaker 1: opportunity for the veterans of this team and say, this

543
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,840
Speaker 1: is still a business trip, this is still a long season,

544
00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,080
Speaker 1: and it starts right now in the second quarter of

545
00:24:50,200 --> 00:24:52,680
Speaker 1: finishing what we started, which is going out and winning

546
00:24:52,720 --> 00:24:54,840
Speaker 1: ball game. And it starts right here and right now.

547
00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: We go out, we get a win, and we come

548
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:58,760
Speaker 1: back and it makes that flight from London a lot

549
00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,560
Speaker 1: better when you get a W. You know, hopefully the

550
00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:05,200
Speaker 1: veterans of this team emphasize how big and how important

551
00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,160
Speaker 1: it is to start this second quarter the right way

552
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:11,560
Speaker 1: and do some of the things that maybe you didn't

553
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,760
Speaker 1: do well in those first four games, like finished ball games,

554
00:25:15,000 --> 00:25:16,879
Speaker 1: like make the players that are there when they present

555
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: it and get a W. So you feel better going

556
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,240
Speaker 1: into the start of this second quarter of the season.

557
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:23,200
Speaker 1: As we know, it starts to get a little bit

558
00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,199
Speaker 1: harder when you start playing teams that are, you know,

559
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 1: having a much better record. Chuck should I so I

560
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:29,960
Speaker 1: got to cancel the tour of bucking in Palace. I

561
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,160
Speaker 1: can't go get my picture taken with Ben big Ben,

562
00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:35,000
Speaker 1: I can't stand with Parliament in the background. That's the

563
00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:38,040
Speaker 1: kind of stuff he's talking about, is okay, that's you

564
00:25:38,080 --> 00:25:40,479
Speaker 1: may have never been there before. There's a bunch of

565
00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:43,120
Speaker 1: young players on this football team. Hey, this is England.

566
00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:44,919
Speaker 1: I've never been doing. Maybe you've never even been to

567
00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,600
Speaker 1: a different country. Got to flush that out of your mind.

568
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:50,920
Speaker 1: He's exactly right. I gotta lock in and go play football. Yeah,

569
00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:53,680
Speaker 1: and guys, he met a great pin point. DJ. We've

570
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: been on some flights after losses and they've been what

571
00:25:56,440 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 1: an hour and a half, two hours, maybe three and

572
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:01,440
Speaker 1: a half hours. But you come back on a loss,

573
00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: on a nine hour flight and you own a one

574
00:26:04,480 --> 00:26:06,639
Speaker 1: in four, and the coaches ain't too happy and the

575
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 1: players are upset. That makes for a long flight back home. Guys, Look,

576
00:26:11,400 --> 00:26:12,960
Speaker 1: I was so happy to be back in the studio.

577
00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,479
