15
00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:02,120
Speaker 1: since Thursday's celebration of the nineteen eighty one Super Bowl team.

16
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 1: In addition to inducting Paul Brown, Anthony Munio's, Ken Anderson,

17
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,000
Speaker 1: and Ken Riley into the Bengals Ring of Honor at halftime,

18
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: the team welcome back nearly forty players from the Bengals

19
00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,880
Speaker 1: first Super Bowl team, and they gathered for a pregame

20
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 1: storytelling event at the new Icon Music Center next to

21
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,160
Speaker 1: Paul Brown Stadium. It was awesome and it was the

22
00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 1: result of a ton of planning and hard work by

23
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:30,040
Speaker 1: the Bengals Director of Community Engagement Alex Simons and many

24
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: other members of the Bengals front office staff. And kudos

25
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:37,800
Speaker 1: to the Brown and Blackburn families for making it all possible.

26
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,840
Speaker 1: It was truly a night to remember. Now let's get

27
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 1: to Thursday's game. The first half was a disaster. The

28
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:49,560
Speaker 1: Bengals first drive ended with a missed field goal by

29
00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:53,800
Speaker 1: Evan McPherson, his first in the NFL, and things quickly

30
00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: went from bad to worse as a pair of rushing

31
00:01:56,680 --> 00:02:00,880
Speaker 1: touchdowns gave Jacksonville a fourteen nothing lead the second quarter,

32
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,200
Speaker 1: and it looked like it might be twenty one nothing

33
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: at the half before Cincinnati made the key defensive play

34
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 1: of the game, fourth and goal from the Cincinnati one

35
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,600
Speaker 1: fifty nine seconds left and a half. Lawrence, moving to

36
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,160
Speaker 1: his right, runs up the middle. It's and he did

37
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 1: not get in. The Bengals stopped Trevor Lawrence. That is big,

38
00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:25,799
Speaker 1: right there, boy Master. Here's Tyler Boyd on the critical

39
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,480
Speaker 1: goal line stand. You know, I think that was a

40
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,160
Speaker 1: difference in the game for sure. You know, doest stop

41
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,480
Speaker 1: really uh got us going, you know, because the game

42
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:36,240
Speaker 1: probably could have would have won a whole different way

43
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:38,040
Speaker 1: if they would have pushed it in, you know, so

44
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 1: off to our defense. So even after having just four

45
00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: first downs in the first half to Jacksonville's fifteen, the

46
00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: Bengals felt confident that they could rally. Here's c j Uzama.

47
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,160
Speaker 1: We came out unbelievably slow. And that's not a knock

48
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,520
Speaker 1: on Jacksonville. I mean, they're a good team. Their record

49
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,400
Speaker 1: isn't indicative of who they are as a team. But

50
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,519
Speaker 1: we knew that we were shooting ourselves on the front.

51
00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,240
Speaker 1: We weren't performing the way that we should have formed,

52
00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:02,160
Speaker 1: and we came in at halftime. First of all, the

53
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 1: defense had an incredible stop at the end of the

54
00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,320
Speaker 1: half going into that going in twenty or twenty one

55
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,280
Speaker 1: to zero is huge in comparison to fourteen to zero.

56
00:03:10,320 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: And you know, the leader stepped up, said some things

57
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,880
Speaker 1: in the locker room at halftime, and we came out

58
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:18,920
Speaker 1: and executed. The Bengals second play of the second half.

59
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: Got the ball rolling shotgun snapped to Burrow, four man rush,

60
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: good pocket, flings it deep Dungell Chase over the shoulder

61
00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 1: catch at the Jacksonville forty and he runs it down

62
00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: to the Jaguars twenty five yard line. Safety Andrew wingered

63
00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,280
Speaker 1: with a stop half forty four yard catch for Jamar Chase.

64
00:03:37,560 --> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: It's the fourth grade game that Numero Uno has had

65
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 1: a catch for thirty or more yards and it's set

66
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 1: up the Bengals first score. Second down and seven at

67
00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,440
Speaker 1: the twenty two of Jacksonville c j Uzama goes in

68
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: motion left to right Burrow under center. Now Mike Thomas

69
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 1: goes in jet motion. They fake a hand off to

70
00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,000
Speaker 1: the right Burrow at the short throw to the left

71
00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: phot at the eighteen Usama to the ten come back,

72
00:03:59,120 --> 00:04:04,960
Speaker 1: moving a stick to the pylon, touchdown Bengals. You see

73
00:04:05,120 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: jay U Sama with great yak yards after catch and

74
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,120
Speaker 1: the Bengals score on their first drive of the third quarter.

75
00:04:13,240 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 1: That's exactly what they needed. Once again, it's a little

76
00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 1: play action. You get that running game going and the

77
00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: play action is gonna be there. That made it fourteen seven,

78
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: and after the defense got a three and out, the

79
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 1: offense struck again. A one yard touchdown run by Burrow

80
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 1: was overturned by replay, but ultimately didn't keep the Bengals

81
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:33,560
Speaker 1: out of the end zone. All right, here we go.

82
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,640
Speaker 1: The Bengals line up third down and goal inside the one,

83
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,799
Speaker 1: trailing by seven. Midway through the third quarter. Burrow ready

84
00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: and the shotgun catches the snap, hands to Mixing fights

85
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:47,320
Speaker 1: his way into the end zone. Touchdown. Bengals, no need

86
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:50,599
Speaker 1: to review. Chow Mixing gets in with ease, and the

87
00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,960
Speaker 1: Bengals make it a one point game. McPherson's extra point

88
00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760
Speaker 1: tied the score at fourteen. Heading to the fourth quarter,

89
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,560
Speaker 1: Jacksonville went back in front on a four yard touchdown

90
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,760
Speaker 1: run by James Robinson. He finished the game with seventy

91
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 1: eight yards and two tds. But the Bengals responded again

92
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:11,320
Speaker 1: with a ten play seventy five yard drive. Burrow catches

93
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:15,839
Speaker 1: the shotgun snap, good protection, pump fakes, gestures, scrambles left,

94
00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:20,000
Speaker 1: penalty flag down. Burrow throws caught by Usama streaking toward

95
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,359
Speaker 1: the end zone. He's in. We'll see what the penalty

96
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,080
Speaker 1: flag is about. At the twenty eight. If it's on Jacksonville,

97
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,200
Speaker 1: it's a tie game. I think Jacksonville held initially. Then

98
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:33,159
Speaker 1: the Bengals went down the field and started blocking after

99
00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:36,200
Speaker 1: he was held, but Jacksonville held initially. Let's see what

100
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: the college Ill' goal used to the hands, hands to

101
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:44,320
Speaker 1: the face hold of the plays a touchdown c j

102
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:49,560
Speaker 1: U Sama with two touchdown catches. Burrow was magnificent, going

103
00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,200
Speaker 1: twenty five for thirty two. That's seventy eight percent for

104
00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:56,320
Speaker 1: three hundred forty eight yards, with two touchdowns, no picks,

105
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,240
Speaker 1: and a career high passer rating of one thirty two

106
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 1: point eight. That's the third time in four games this

107
00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 1: year that Joe's topped one twenty. I think I've got

108
00:06:05,680 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: better and better each week. You know, last week, you know,

109
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,240
Speaker 1: the defense played so well that I didn't have to

110
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: do a lot, and then tonight, you know, there's gonna

111
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:16,280
Speaker 1: be games like that where you have stuff up and

112
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,640
Speaker 1: make plays, and so I'm really happy with my performance tonight.

113
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna keep building on this and keep getting

114
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: better and better. With the score tied at twenty one,

115
00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: Jacksonville drove to the fifty before having to punt and

116
00:06:28,160 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 1: the Bengals got the ball at their own ten with

117
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:34,320
Speaker 1: five thirty three remaining. On their final drive, the Bengals

118
00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,400
Speaker 1: had a false start and a holding penalty and lost

119
00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 1: Joe Mixon for the final few minutes when he appeared

120
00:06:39,839 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 1: to twist his ankle on second and thirteen near midfield

121
00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: with roughly a minute to go, Burrow recognized that the

122
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,279
Speaker 1: Jags were going to an all out blitz with cover

123
00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 1: zero in other words, zero deep defenders, so he switched

124
00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:00,160
Speaker 1: the play to a jailbreak screen to see Juzama. Row

125
00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 1: lines up in the gun, extends the hands, catches the snap,

126
00:07:03,360 --> 00:07:05,599
Speaker 1: throws to beat a blitz caught by c jas Zambi

127
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:08,080
Speaker 1: gets to the thirty five new meals at the thirty

128
00:07:08,279 --> 00:07:11,360
Speaker 1: down to the twenty five, he gets tackled at the

129
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 1: twenty one miles Jack making the stop. The Bengals beat

130
00:07:15,560 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: the all out blitz and now they are within easy

131
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 1: field goal range for Evan McPherson with a clock running

132
00:07:22,360 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 1: in forty eight seconds to go. You guys have heard

133
00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:26,920
Speaker 1: me talking about just having the playbook in the back

134
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,440
Speaker 1: of my head seeing looks that you know, I can

135
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:32,080
Speaker 1: take advantage of, and that just comes with experience. And

136
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:34,600
Speaker 1: you know, they gave me a zero look, and so

137
00:07:34,840 --> 00:07:37,120
Speaker 1: you know a week I knew defensive coordinator had a

138
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 1: Baltimore background. You know, they've showed some zero on film.

139
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:41,600
Speaker 1: I knew they'd have to be ready for it in

140
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 1: a big spot. And you know, I had CJ out there.

141
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: That's not exactly the personnel that we usually put through

142
00:07:48,600 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: those jailbreak screens too. But you know, he really took

143
00:07:51,120 --> 00:07:54,080
Speaker 1: advantage of the opportunity. And I had those plays in

144
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 1: the back of my head expecting zero, and I just

145
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 1: got to it and didn't really think about it. Burrows

146
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 1: ability to read defense and switched to the right play

147
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:05,080
Speaker 1: is not the only sign of his brain power. According

148
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:07,400
Speaker 1: to Usama, he's the smartest person on the field at

149
00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:12,440
Speaker 1: all times. The I was fortunate enough to get brought

150
00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:15,320
Speaker 1: into their jeopardy game, the quarterbacks that they have a

151
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 1: little jeopardy game and the questions. I was like, what

152
00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:22,560
Speaker 1: what the hell is this? Like I don't know any

153
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:24,720
Speaker 1: of this stuff. Why am I here? And he's just like,

154
00:08:24,840 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: can I steal this one? Can I steal this one?

155
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: I know this one. I'm like, if you want to,

156
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know the answer, Like so I

157

158
00:08:35,760 --> 00:08:38,720
Speaker 1: with a career high ninety five receiving yards and after

159
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:42,080
Speaker 1: a run by Sama JP Ryan, the Bengals left four

160
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:45,880
Speaker 1: seconds on the clock and called on Evan McK fearless

161
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,600
Speaker 1: to win it. So here we go, a thirty five

162
00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:50,720
Speaker 1: yard field goal attempt to win the game from the

163

Speaker 1: right hash Clark Harris will snap, Kevin Huber will hold

164
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: Evan McPherson looking for his second game winner in four

165
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 1: NFL games. This snap to put down the swing of

166
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:04,520
Speaker 1: the right leg. The kick is on its way. Coffin

Speaker 1: about that Bengals Jackson Carmen lifting Evan McPherson into the air,

170
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 1: just as he did back in Week one in overtime

171
00:09:25,440 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 1: when he beat the Minnesota Vikings, and now on the

Speaker 1: Jacksonville twenty four to twenty one. Wow. Now we're threeing one.

176
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,680
Speaker 1: We're in a good we're in a good spot. Obviously,

177
00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 1: we had the one setback that we didn't play very

178
00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 1: well in Chicago, but you know, we've played pretty well

179
00:09:55,160 --> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: the last the other three games. So we're just gonna

180
00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,480
Speaker 1: keep building on. And I'm excited to have a bye weekend. No,

181
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 1: it's gonna fun to watch some football, kind of relax,

182
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,040
Speaker 1: you know, get a head start on Green Day. Dave

183
00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 1: Lapham spoke to head coach Zach Taylor in the locker

184
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:13,760
Speaker 1: room after the game. Congratulations, huge win. So many things

185
00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 1: to talk about it. I mean, you get down fourteen nothing,

186
00:10:17,200 --> 00:10:20,840
Speaker 1: your defense, that goal, that fourth down stop was monumental.

187
00:10:21,600 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: You guys again when the coin toss and defer, it's

188
00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:26,320
Speaker 1: worked out for you where you score at the end

189
00:10:26,320 --> 00:10:28,600
Speaker 1: of the half to then score first possession, you make

190
00:10:28,679 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: that stop at the end of the half to stay

191
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:31,440
Speaker 1: in the game, and then you come out and you

192
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:33,560
Speaker 1: kick their tail in about a minute and a half

193
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 1: to score and then come back and score again. Yeah,

194
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:36,959
Speaker 1: in a lot of ways, that is scoring at the

195
00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:38,800
Speaker 1: end of a half kept seven points off the board

196
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 1: that would have been that would have been difficult to

197
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:43,719
Speaker 1: overcome in this league, and so tremendous effort of our

198
00:10:43,760 --> 00:10:46,240
Speaker 1: defense just just kind of bowing up there on the

199
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,200
Speaker 1: goal line. They had to do it a lot because

200
00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,160
Speaker 1: we got the holding call in the end zone, you know,

201
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 1: that gave him a first down, and so just just

202
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 1: really critical there and a great job by them. You

203
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:58,360
Speaker 1: overcame a few tough penalties. I mean, you had a

204
00:10:58,400 --> 00:11:00,679
Speaker 1: holding call offensively on that last drive to set you

205
00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: back and CJ. I was talking to CJ and Tyler

206
00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:05,640
Speaker 1: Boyd and CJ said, I'm not I don't get that

207
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,800
Speaker 1: screen this first time I've ever gotten that screen. Take

208
00:11:07,880 --> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: us through that call, that play that went to CJ Zarman,

209
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 1: that set everything up for that field goal. There was

210
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:14,280
Speaker 1: zero blitz. That was a check from Burrow. You know,

211
00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,040
Speaker 1: that wasn't a called play, That wasn't two plays in

212
00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: the huddle. We called a play and he checked to

213
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:19,080
Speaker 1: a zero blitz beater. What you got to do in

214
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,320
Speaker 1: this league and everyone has to be ready. And that's

215
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:24,520
Speaker 1: just a great example of CJ understanding the offense, taking

216
00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:26,680
Speaker 1: mental reps because I promise you's never taking a physical

217
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,040
Speaker 1: rep of that, and executing when we needed the most.

218
00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:33,000
Speaker 1: That's awesome. Joe Cullen, the defensive coordinator, five years as

219
00:11:33,080 --> 00:11:35,880
Speaker 1: d line coach with Baltimore. They go zero blitz when

220
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:38,480
Speaker 1: you approached the red zone. You guys obviously had prepared

221
00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:41,040
Speaker 1: for that. You had your team prepared for that, and bam.

222
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:43,760
Speaker 1: When something like that happens, when it's like, yeah, this

223
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: is what we were talking about, what are we gonna do?

224
00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:47,760
Speaker 1: And then you execute it like that? How rewarding a

225
00:11:47,840 --> 00:11:50,240
Speaker 1: feeling is that it's the best. You know, your players

226
00:11:50,240 --> 00:11:53,360
Speaker 1: are just confident and what we asked them to do,

227
00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: the positions we put them in, and then they execute.

228
00:11:55,720 --> 00:11:57,959
Speaker 1: And you know, sometimes you're stressed as a coach going

229
00:11:57,960 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 1: into a game, and then I just take a deep

230
00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,199
Speaker 1: breath and say, we got good players. We got really

231
00:12:01,200 --> 00:12:03,240
Speaker 1: good players. They're gonna go out there and play well

232
00:12:03,320 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 1: and we're gonna win. What did you say at halftime, coach,

233
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,480
Speaker 1: I mean to come into football game and stagnated a

234
00:12:08,520 --> 00:12:10,360
Speaker 1: little bit, never really got in a rhythm. You come

235
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:12,960
Speaker 1: out in the second half, I mean on fire. What

236
00:12:13,040 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: was talked about was it like they're really not doing anything,

237
00:12:14,840 --> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 1: We're kind of hurting ourselves. Yeah, we got their best

238
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,160
Speaker 1: shot all three phases, and we were not playing well

239
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:21,160
Speaker 1: in any phase at that point. And we were only

240
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 1: down fourteen to nothing, and we scored what fourteen points

241
00:12:23,679 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 1: and three minutes at Chicago, and so we knew how

242
00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:28,840
Speaker 1: quickly we can score quickly we can get some stops.

243
00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:30,920
Speaker 1: There was no need to panic, and that's exactly what

244
00:12:30,920 --> 00:12:33,840
Speaker 1: our team did. So no turnovers for either football team.

245
00:12:33,840 --> 00:12:35,800
Speaker 1: It just turned into who's going to execute, who gets

246
00:12:35,800 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: the ball last kind of thing, and you guys do

247
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:39,680
Speaker 1: that and you give them the knockout punch in a

248
00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,560
Speaker 1: game like that. There are a lot of lessons to

249
00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,040
Speaker 1: be learned in a game like that too. I mean,

250
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,560
Speaker 1: what do you talk to your team about after the

251
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:48,920
Speaker 1: game or even tomorrow. I think situationally, the hinted everything, Well,

252
00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:51,600
Speaker 1: you know, it's it's the defense got to stop. And

253
00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 1: in the middle of the fourth quarter, offense bled six

254
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:57,319
Speaker 1: minutes off to be able to finish with four seconds left,

255
00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,600
Speaker 1: and a kicking team was able to kick it through

256
00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: the upright and finish it. So all three phases were connected.

257
00:13:02,360 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: All three phases stepped up and made plays when you

258
00:13:04,160 --> 00:13:06,400
Speaker 1: did him. So you come off an emotional win in

259
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,120
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Division win on the road, and then it's like,

260
00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 1: all right, well are we going to be able to

261
00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:14,800
Speaker 1: you know, handle success. We're gonna be able to compartmentalize

262
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: and the team did. What does that say about this

263
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,280
Speaker 1: football team that we're ready, you know, for the next

264
00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:21,240
Speaker 1: phase of the season. This is just the first quarter.

265
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:23,360
Speaker 1: We're up seven and nothing right now, we got three

266
00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:25,960
Speaker 1: quarters left to play. So again, we got to come

267
00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:29,439
Speaker 1: out focus for a game against the two time NFC

268
00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:32,679
Speaker 1: champion contenders, you know, Green Bay Packers. We're gonna have

269
00:13:32,720 --> 00:13:34,320
Speaker 1: a work cut out for us. It's good that we

270
00:13:34,320 --> 00:13:36,000
Speaker 1: have a long week to get healthy because we can

271
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:38,200
Speaker 1: get some guys back, but we've got to be focused

272
00:13:38,200 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 1: and ready and ready to play on the Sex game.

273
00:13:39,760 --> 00:13:41,800
Speaker 1: It's a huge one. I know you haven't looked at

274
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,959
Speaker 1: tape yet. Trey Wayne's first first action. How how do

275
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,400
Speaker 1: you think it went for him out there? You know,

276
00:13:46,440 --> 00:13:48,120
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to say, but I saw him

277
00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,640
Speaker 1: involved in a lot of plays. It's good to have

278
00:13:49,679 --> 00:13:51,839
Speaker 1: Trey back, I'm sure for him. He hasn't played and

279
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: almost a year and a half, so it's good for

280
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:55,600
Speaker 1: him just to get back out there, to get back

281
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,960
Speaker 1: in the phase of things. I know he's only going

282
00:13:57,040 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 1: to improve with each game going forward. In your second

283
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:02,640
Speaker 1: he was beaten up. Who can you say stepped up

284
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,000
Speaker 1: for you in absence of key players. Von Bell as

285
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,400
Speaker 1: a leader in that secondary, you know, and he stepped up.

286
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,480
Speaker 1: And you know, with Jesse out and Cheeto out, Vaughan

287
00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,559
Speaker 1: Von is always the guy who's consistent, reliable, and so

288
00:14:14,640 --> 00:14:18,640
Speaker 1: we knew that he keeped that secondary connected. Everybody, including myself,

289
00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 1: was stunned when McPherson missed and it's like, all right, well,

290
00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: he's kicked three extra points. He's in a rhythm. You

291
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 1: knew he was going to kick that game or two

292
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,760
Speaker 1: game winners in his first four at NFL games. Kids,

293
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:31,120
Speaker 1: Pretty cool. Yeah, No, no kicker in INFLO history has

294
00:14:31,160 --> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: made all their kicks, and so you know at some

295
00:14:32,760 --> 00:14:34,920
Speaker 1: point he was gonna face him of adversity for the

296
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:37,160
Speaker 1: first time in his young NFL career. But I didn't

297
00:14:37,160 --> 00:14:38,840
Speaker 1: think everybody knew he was gonna put that last one

298
00:14:38,840 --> 00:14:40,480
Speaker 1: through the uprights, and we trusted him and he did

299
00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 1: a great job. Three and one. Great start. A little

300
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 1: mini bye week, go see the family R and R

301
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:50,640
Speaker 1: a little bit. But I know you guys, you guys

302
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:52,960
Speaker 1: you're coaching staff. You guys work man, you guys grind it.

303
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:54,760
Speaker 1: You're gonna be able to get any time though. Yeah,

304
00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go watch my kids play flag football on

305
00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:58,720
Speaker 1: Sunday and spend some time with my family. And these

306
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,080
Speaker 1: coaches will too. They they deserve it, they put in

307
00:15:01,080 --> 00:15:03,000
Speaker 1: the work. It's good for them to have this opportunity.

308
00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,880
Speaker 1: Congratulations on a big night National's TV. The nation saw

309
00:15:07,400 --> 00:15:10,280
Speaker 1: Bengal's face adversity and overcome it. Love it. That was

310
00:15:10,280 --> 00:15:13,880
Speaker 1: great to see. Thanks, Thanks it. So the Green Bay

311
00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: Packers come to town a week from Sunday. After getting

312
00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:20,320
Speaker 1: embarrassed by the Saints in Week one thirty eight to three,

313
00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,320
Speaker 1: the Packers have posted back to back wins over Detroit

314
00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:28,680
Speaker 1: and San Francisco, Green Bay host Pittsburgh on Sunday. Now

315
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:33,240
Speaker 1: time for postgame analysis with Lap. What a performance by

316
00:15:33,320 --> 00:15:36,360
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow Lap career high passer rating of one thirty

317
00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:38,760
Speaker 1: two point eight. He often talks about how he wants

318
00:15:38,760 --> 00:15:40,800
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands with a game on the line.

319
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:44,240
Speaker 1: Can see why after the performance he had on Thursday

320
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: Night Football. Down fourteen nothing at the half, they got

321
00:15:47,160 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 1: the ball four times in the second half. He led

322
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: them down the field to square every time. He said that.

323
00:15:51,400 --> 00:15:54,440
Speaker 1: He talked to Zach Taylor at halftime and said, let's

324
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: go empty. Got matchups I can take advantage of. We

325
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: can do this right down the field a minute and

326
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:05,320
Speaker 1: a half. Score, get the ball back, score again. I mean,

327
00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,880
Speaker 1: he understands his football, there's no question about it. So

328
00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,720
Speaker 1: doing that, making that adjustment, going empty and throwing it

329
00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:14,960
Speaker 1: all over the place in the second half and then

330
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: the screen passed that went to CJ. He audibilized too,

331
00:16:18,960 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: and CJ had never gotten it. And I can see why.

332
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: I mean, defensive linemen aren't. I mean, when the rush

333
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:27,560
Speaker 1: was so strong, I'm like, oh man, they're gonna back

334
00:16:27,560 --> 00:16:29,920
Speaker 1: this down or something. He just dropped downside of him.

335
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: Get the ball around it, and CJ was mad at

336
00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: he didn't score. He goes, man, I got a score

337
00:16:34,480 --> 00:16:36,160
Speaker 1: on that. So he wanted the hat trick. He didn't

338
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 1: quite get there. But that was an unbelievable play as well.

339
00:16:39,280 --> 00:16:42,640
Speaker 1: So in the defense when they had to make a stop.

340
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:44,640
Speaker 1: There weren't he turnovers in the game, but that fourth

341
00:16:44,640 --> 00:16:47,480
Speaker 1: down stop, when that possession didn't end in a kick,

342
00:16:48,720 --> 00:16:51,080
Speaker 1: that was a huge possession in that football game to

343
00:16:51,160 --> 00:16:53,240
Speaker 1: keep him in it. That was bigger than it turned

344
00:16:53,280 --> 00:16:55,720
Speaker 1: over because it's fourteen nothing. You've got less than a

345
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 1: minute to go in the second quarter. It's fourth and

346
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: goal at the one. Trevor Lawrence is six six. I mean,

347
00:17:01,560 --> 00:17:04,040
Speaker 1: if he jumps up and does the Drew Breeze play

348
00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,120
Speaker 1: where you just jump up and extend the ball forward

349
00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,240
Speaker 1: with two arms, yeah, I think it's a touchdown. He

350
00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 1: elected to run instead. Larry jug and Joby and Logan

351
00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:14,640
Speaker 1: Wilson get him to the ground. That saves the day.

352
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:18,720
Speaker 1: It does. And um, like urban Meyer said to Vic

353
00:17:18,760 --> 00:17:23,040
Speaker 1: Fangioe NFL, it's like playing Alabama every week. You gotta

354
00:17:23,119 --> 00:17:25,560
Speaker 1: get you gotta take the points. I mean, I think

355
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:28,400
Speaker 1: I think that's at that point. You go up three scores,

356
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 1: you go up seventeen nothing, that's you know, that's a statement.

357
00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:36,000
Speaker 1: He tried to get really greedy and you know, roll

358
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,359
Speaker 1: Michigan or something, you know, get up on him big,

359
00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 1: and it came back to bite him a little bit.

360
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:45,000
Speaker 1: But that obviously was big. The field goal missed by

361
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,800
Speaker 1: McPherson McPherson was big. But for him to come back

362
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:51,560
Speaker 1: and do what he does, I mean, he's let's face it,

363
00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:55,560
Speaker 1: every kicker is gonna miss kicks. Justin Tucker's miss kicks.

364
00:17:55,640 --> 00:17:57,720
Speaker 1: You just can't, you know, you can't lose your mind

365
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:00,680
Speaker 1: over it. And he moved on and moved on quickly

366
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:02,720
Speaker 1: and got the game winner two and four weeks. Two

367
00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,000
Speaker 1: game winners in four NFL games. That's crazy, both with

368
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: the clock hitting zero. Unbelievable, unbelievable at the gun. McPherson, Bengo,

369
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:16,400
Speaker 1: Bango Longo, Justin Tucker might be better, but every McPherson

370
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,439
Speaker 1: is pretty darn good, no question about it. Let's talk

371
00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 1: about Tyler Boyd. Nine catches for one hundred and eighteen yards.

372
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 1: I'm still trying to figure out how he caught that

373
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,760
Speaker 1: pass on third down in six when he wasn't open,

374
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,040
Speaker 1: he was being interfered with. I don't know how Joe

375
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,480
Speaker 1: Burrow saw any sort of opening to get the ball

376
00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:37,320
Speaker 1: to him and they connected. I really believe Dan that

377
00:18:37,400 --> 00:18:41,639
Speaker 1: he's been the victim of a football team that hasn't

378
00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,320
Speaker 1: played well enough. He is a Pole Bowl slot receiver.

379
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:49,320
Speaker 1: Since he's coming to the league, nobody, very few, I

380
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:52,239
Speaker 1: think maybe one, has put up better numbers than him

381
00:18:52,240 --> 00:18:56,719
Speaker 1: in the slot. He is a Pro Bowl caliber slot receiver.

382
00:18:56,880 --> 00:18:59,840
Speaker 1: And I think now as the team starts to improve,

383
00:19:00,080 --> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: people around the league will recognize this guy's talents and abilities.

384
00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:08,280
Speaker 1: And he's incredibly intelligent. We were talking about in the

385
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:12,159
Speaker 1: post game. He and CJ both played quarterback, and he

386
00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,600
Speaker 1: played in high school. CJ even played at Auburn obviously,

387
00:19:14,640 --> 00:19:18,199
Speaker 1: and they just say that they can be on the

388
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,400
Speaker 1: same page as the quarterback. They'll pre read a defense,

389
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:23,119
Speaker 1: you know, before the snap of the football in their

390
00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:25,840
Speaker 1: routes and everything. And I almost get on the same page,

391
00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:29,600
Speaker 1: you know, very very quickly. He's a very very intelligent

392
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:35,240
Speaker 1: football player, very very tough physical football players. He's a

393
00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:39,080
Speaker 1: he's a special one. Thursday night games are hard to play.

394
00:19:39,359 --> 00:19:41,760
Speaker 1: I mean, those guys are just starting to feel better

395
00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:44,320
Speaker 1: by Thursday when they're back on the field and playing

396
00:19:44,320 --> 00:19:46,720
Speaker 1: in a game. Did that show tonight did they look

397
00:19:46,800 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: like they were a little bit gas to you? You know?

398
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,359
Speaker 1: I asked h I asked, guys, what are they going

399
00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:53,880
Speaker 1: to do? And they were all saying, you know, take

400
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:56,440
Speaker 1: some time and get my body right and all that.

401
00:19:57,160 --> 00:20:01,479
Speaker 1: I think. Defensively, they played eighty seven snaps and it

402
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:04,719
Speaker 1: was it was not cool. I mean, it was it

403
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:06,600
Speaker 1: wasn't boiling hot. It wasn't as hot as some of

404
00:20:06,600 --> 00:20:09,399
Speaker 1: the games, but it was it was not fall weather,

405
00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,240
Speaker 1: and they paid a price, I think, and I think

406
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,320
Speaker 1: that might have been a little bit of a factor,

407
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:20,479
Speaker 1: but they the adjustment they made was going empty. And

408
00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: the reason that that screen passed to CJ was called

409
00:20:24,680 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 1: is Joe Cullen, the defense coordinator that spent five years

410
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,760
Speaker 1: with the Ravens. When you approach the red zone, they

411
00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,760
Speaker 1: go zero, and they had a feeling it was going

412
00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 1: to be zero, and it was. And when CJ, like

413
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,040
Speaker 1: he said, when when I broke the when I broke up,

414
00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:43,960
Speaker 1: feel I should have scored. And they were saying also

415
00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:48,240
Speaker 1: that Joe Barrow mentioned that Zach Taylor was going to

416
00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,600
Speaker 1: find anybody that get tackled one on one by that

417
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 1: deep safety. I said that if they're going to put

418
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 1: a guy that deep, if we get tackled one on

419
00:20:55,440 --> 00:20:58,080
Speaker 1: one by him, it's a fine. And they wanted to

420
00:20:58,080 --> 00:20:59,919
Speaker 1: make sure that that guy didn't come up and make

421
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,640
Speaker 1: a one on one play on him. So it was interesting,

422
00:21:03,560 --> 00:21:06,320
Speaker 1: you know, how they get ready for this one. It

423
00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:09,000
Speaker 1: kind of bums me out that Joe Montana was known

424
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,480
Speaker 1: as Joe Cool because you can't give that nickname to

425
00:21:11,560 --> 00:21:14,200
Speaker 1: Joe Burrow. It's already been used. But that's what he is.

426
00:21:14,320 --> 00:21:17,960
Speaker 1: He is Joe Cool. He is. I mean, I swear

427
00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,840
Speaker 1: he was so composed and relaxed in the locker room.

428
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:23,439
Speaker 1: I thought he was going to take a nap. I

429
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,880
Speaker 1: mean his heart rate. He's one of those guys where

430
00:21:25,880 --> 00:21:28,679
Speaker 1: the heart rate goes down instead of up, instead of

431
00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: a you know, a panic situation. He just can take

432
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:36,600
Speaker 1: it down and he just is very You said it

433
00:21:36,680 --> 00:21:39,120
Speaker 1: during the game when they got the ball back, he said,

434
00:21:39,119 --> 00:21:42,240
Speaker 1: this is what Joe Burrow well, he wants. He lives on,

435
00:21:42,359 --> 00:21:44,960
Speaker 1: thrives on it. A chance to win the football game,

436
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,679
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands to win the game. This

437
00:21:46,720 --> 00:21:48,480
Speaker 1: is what it's all about. A showtime and the son

438
00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: of a gun one down and did it again, and

439
00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,200
Speaker 1: you can't do it any better. He got the ball

440
00:21:52,240 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 1: at his own ten with five thirty three on the clock.

441
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,639
Speaker 1: He used all five thirty three and set up his

442
00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:01,680
Speaker 1: outstanding kicker for a relative chip shot to win the game.

443
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,199
Speaker 1: I was I was praying to them kick it with

444
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 1: like thirty seconds. I'm thinking, you know, within a half minute.

445
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 1: They only have one time out I'll do better than that.

446
00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:12,640
Speaker 1: Let's just take it all the way down and hit

447
00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:17,360
Speaker 1: it at the gun. Just incredible. Um yeah, it's it's

448
00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,960
Speaker 1: good stuff. I think. I think that, you know, you

449
00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 1: you go on the road and win a division game,

450
00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: an emotional game, and then you come back and it's

451
00:22:27,040 --> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: it's easy to say, look, you know, we can't afford

452
00:22:31,080 --> 00:22:33,040
Speaker 1: to let down. You have to come out, you can't

453
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,360
Speaker 1: be flat and everything that you talk about, but going

454
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: out and doing it, and then and then when you

455
00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,640
Speaker 1: fall behind by fourteen, I think you know, now, all

456
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: of a sudden, it's a gut check for everybody. And

457
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:47,200
Speaker 1: they responded, which I think will stand him in good

458
00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,679
Speaker 1: stead as they, you know, get into more competitive games

459
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:53,560
Speaker 1: and can't be much more competitive than that. Really, no

460
00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:56,399
Speaker 1: team turned it over as such other than the fourth

461
00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: down stop in the goal line, and it just was like,

462
00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,560
Speaker 1: all right, well, who's going to get the ball last,

463
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: who's going to make the last body shot, who's going

464
00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,040
Speaker 1: to get the knockout punch? And that was just a

465
00:23:05,240 --> 00:23:08,440
Speaker 1: good NFL football, you know, a team that came in

466
00:23:09,119 --> 00:23:13,240
Speaker 1: tied for the lead and giveaways, held onto the football

467
00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:16,520
Speaker 1: and made it a game for sure. So four games

468
00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,679
Speaker 1: is no longer a quarter of the schedule now that

469
00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:21,080
Speaker 1: you've got a seventeen game regular season. But it's close.

470
00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: They're three in one after four. How would you sum

471
00:23:25,560 --> 00:23:29,439
Speaker 1: up the first close to quarter of the season. You know,

472
00:23:29,480 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: I'd say that that it's it's a good start, I think.

473
00:23:34,280 --> 00:23:38,479
Speaker 1: I think that obviously, getting three of them to go

474
00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,160
Speaker 1: in the right way. They've got miles before God before

475
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:46,080
Speaker 1: they rest, miles to travel. But they are, you know,

476
00:23:46,160 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: building the foundation. It's not like there aren't any bricks

477
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,399
Speaker 1: laid there. There have been some bricks laid, and I

478
00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,639
Speaker 1: think those bricks are gonna withstand you know, bad weather

479
00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:56,640
Speaker 1: and all the stuff that it has to withstand as

480
00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:58,480
Speaker 1: you build the rest of the house. So I think

481
00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:01,680
Speaker 1: they are, you know, get that good foundation established. And

482
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: Paul Brown had a great saying winners makes believers of

483
00:24:06,640 --> 00:24:10,200
Speaker 1: us all and that in a few words says so much.

484
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,840
Speaker 1: And there's no question I think a lot of the

485
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,480
Speaker 1: guys in that locker room are really starting to believe

486
00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:18,560
Speaker 1: that they can go out and win football games no

487
00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:22,240
Speaker 1: matter what the situation. And that's always a good thing.

488
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:24,800
Speaker 1: I mean, the body can do great things when the

489
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,879
Speaker 1: mind lets it, you know, and the mind's starting to

490
00:24:27,920 --> 00:24:31,240
Speaker 1: let these guys do some things. I don't have much

491
00:24:31,240 --> 00:24:33,520
Speaker 1: more on the game tomorrow from three to six on

499
00:24:58,960 --> 00:25:01,320
Speaker 1: things that young Mike Hilton liked to do as a

500
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: kid growing up in Georgia. Man one, I used to

501
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,000
Speaker 1: go to Six Flags all the time. You know, if

502
00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 1: you heard about six Flags of a George, you know

503
00:25:09,000 --> 00:25:11,200
Speaker 1: they have some of the best roller coasters. So I

504
00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,040
Speaker 1: did that a lot. Of course, play football, and you know,

505
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:16,800
Speaker 1: just enjoyed enjoying my time as a que We have

506
00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:19,880
Speaker 1: King's Island nearby. Do you still like roller coasters? I've

507
00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,560
Speaker 1: heard about King's Island. Everybody said it definitely someplace I

508
00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:24,560
Speaker 1: have to visit. So I'm gonna take my daughter there,

509
00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:26,840
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna have some fun. We're doing fun facts

510
00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:30,080
Speaker 1: with Mike Hilton. You attended Sandy Creek High School. You

511
00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:33,320
Speaker 1: were more of a running back than a cornerback back then, right, Yes,

512
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:35,720
Speaker 1: I was. I got recruited mainly to play running back,

513
00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:38,119
Speaker 1: and when I got to college, when I really flipped

514
00:25:38,119 --> 00:25:40,560
Speaker 1: over to play corner Were you okay with that? I

515
00:25:40,640 --> 00:25:43,160
Speaker 1: wasn't at first, but I knew, especially in the SEC

516
00:25:43,280 --> 00:25:46,520
Speaker 1: in my size, running back was kind of a ife situation.

517
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: So I know, if I made that switch, you know,

518
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:50,760
Speaker 1: you'll put me in a position to be here. So

519
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:53,399
Speaker 1: you're in the process of having a great NFL career,

520
00:25:53,800 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 1: but you are not the most famous football player from

521
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:59,600

523
00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:04,480
Speaker 1: when you were a kid. Did you get to see

524
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: him player? Get to know him? Now? I've never actually

525
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,480
Speaker 1: seen him play when I was growing up, but during

526
00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,520
Speaker 1: my high school games he would come, so I've had

527
00:26:10,600 --> 00:26:13,080
Speaker 1: chances to talk to him and you know, just ask

528
00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: him about the NFL life, and you know, we had

529
00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,680
Speaker 1: some good conversations, and you know, I just want to

530
00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:19,920
Speaker 1: say congrats to him for being inducted. Was that pretty

531
00:26:19,920 --> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: exciting for folks back home to see him getting the

532
00:26:21,800 --> 00:26:24,080
Speaker 1: all things? Oh? Absolutely, especially for our town, which you

533
00:26:24,119 --> 00:26:26,040
Speaker 1: know isn't really the biggest town him. So you know,

534
00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: everybody knows everybody, and when you have a guy like

535
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:32,400
Speaker 1: Calvin Johnson that's inducted, you know, we take pride in then.

536
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,720
Speaker 1: So you are an outstanding player at one of Georgia's

537
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,280
Speaker 1: top high school football programs, But the University of Georgia,

538
00:26:39,480 --> 00:26:43,639
Speaker 1: what'sn't interested? What did head coach Mark erect say to you?

539
00:26:45,400 --> 00:26:47,359
Speaker 1: I remember my high school coach pulled me out. You know,

540
00:26:47,440 --> 00:26:49,240
Speaker 1: during recruiting time, you get pulled out the top of

541
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:51,800
Speaker 1: college coaches and you know, my high school coach was

542
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:54,560
Speaker 1: hyped me up and everything, and I met Rick and

543
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:56,000
Speaker 1: the first thing he said to him, he was like,

544
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: you just not just not big enough for me. So

545
00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,560
Speaker 1: that's kind of the sticking with me throughout my whole career.

546
00:27:02,359 --> 00:27:04,440
Speaker 1: You know, I don't look at it as a bad thing.

547
00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:06,560
Speaker 1: You know, it's just him being honest. But it definitely

548
00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,040
Speaker 1: pushed me to help me get to where I am.

549
00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 1: And it still motivates you. Absolutely, I absolutely I still

550
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,440
Speaker 1: here to this day, whether it's from other people or

551
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:16,960
Speaker 1: the fans of the coaches that I'm not small, but

552
00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:20,280
Speaker 1: I know what I'm capable of. So Mark Rerecht made

553
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 1: a terrible mistake and not recruiting you, but All Miss

554
00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:26,080
Speaker 1: was smart enough to recruit you. What was the best

555
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:29,760
Speaker 1: part of your college experience, man, really just being around everybody,

556
00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: getting no my college teammates and getting that true college field.

557
00:27:33,880 --> 00:27:36,360
Speaker 1: You know, just when they say that's the best years

558
00:27:36,359 --> 00:27:39,320
Speaker 1: of your life, that's honest truth. And I enjoyed all

559
00:27:39,320 --> 00:27:43,040
Speaker 1: four As a senior at All Miss, you received one

560
00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:45,600
Speaker 1: of the highest honors a player can receive at that school.

561
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,639
Speaker 1: You were chosen to wear the number thirty eight in

562
00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:49,880
Speaker 1: honor of the late Chucky Mullins, a great player who

563
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,840
Speaker 1: is paralyzed in a game. Can you articulate what that

564
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 1: honor means? Number One, it goes to a senior defensive

565
00:27:56,760 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 1: player every year. It shows leadership qualities owning off the

566
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:05,000
Speaker 1: field most importantly, especially off the field, you know, just

567
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,080
Speaker 1: being in the community, doing right in the classroom, and

568
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,040
Speaker 1: then when it comes to own the field, being a playmaker,

569
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:14,080
Speaker 1: being a voice, being a leader. I really, I really

570
00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 1: took to he to it my freshman year when I

571
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,919
Speaker 1: started to learn who he was and why they were

572
00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 1: passing the water down every year, and it was one

573
00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:24,639
Speaker 1: of my goals to become the winner. And you know

574
00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:27,879
Speaker 1: I was blessed a winning We're doing fun facttion Mike Helton.

575
00:28:28,160 --> 00:28:30,679
Speaker 1: Following your senior year at All Mess, you signed with

576
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,960
Speaker 1: Jacksonville as an undrafted free agent. Things didn't work out there.

577
00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:37,040
Speaker 1: You signed with the Patriots for their practice squad. They

578
00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,840
Speaker 1: let you go. Did the thought of moving on from

579
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:43,520
Speaker 1: football even enter your mind? Oh? Absolutely. After I got

580
00:28:43,520 --> 00:28:45,560
Speaker 1: cut by New England, which I was only up there

581
00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:47,520
Speaker 1: for a week, So that was like a true experience,

582
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:50,120
Speaker 1: like this game is cut through, it's a business. I

583
00:28:50,160 --> 00:28:52,880
Speaker 1: was at home from like week twelve, I mean week two.

584
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: It's about week twelve, week thirteen. So during that whole

585
00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,360
Speaker 1: span I had started working out, started applying for jobs.

586
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:00,760
Speaker 1: I kind of just started to take up that. You know,

587
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,920
Speaker 1: my opportunity was going away. But you know I got

588
00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:08,640
Speaker 1: that call from Pittsburgh and everything took off sense, that's

589
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,640
Speaker 1: for sure. They gave you a chance. You capitalized with

590
00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:14,840
Speaker 1: four great seasons in the Steelers uniform. When did you

591
00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:18,160
Speaker 1: know you made it. I kind of had a feeling

592
00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: through through that preseason. You know. Then it was four

593
00:29:20,880 --> 00:29:23,440
Speaker 1: preseason games after the second and third when I was

594
00:29:23,480 --> 00:29:26,440
Speaker 1: just making a lot of plays, and I just had

595
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:29,280
Speaker 1: my ears around the locker room that like everybody like Mike,

596
00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:31,880
Speaker 1: you're good man. You have nothing to worry about because

597
00:29:31,880 --> 00:29:34,240
Speaker 1: you know, being undrafted, you're always worried, like today's the

598
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:36,840
Speaker 1: day I'm probably getting cut. But all those guys kind

599
00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:39,360
Speaker 1: of kept me. Kem me confident and Kevin me rosing.

600
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,160
Speaker 1: We're talking to Mike Hilton. So as we've referenced, you're

601
00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,920
Speaker 1: not a big guy five nine eighty four according to

602
00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:48,480
Speaker 1: the roster, but you're one of the best blitzing defensive

603
00:29:48,480 --> 00:29:51,440
Speaker 1: backs in the NFL. What's the secret. I don't want

604
00:29:51,440 --> 00:29:53,560
Speaker 1: to get away too much, but you know, it's just

605
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:56,800
Speaker 1: learning the tendencies of the quarterback. You know, when they're

606
00:29:56,800 --> 00:29:58,840
Speaker 1: going to snap it, if they're gonna possibly have a

607
00:29:58,920 --> 00:30:02,600
Speaker 1: motion before, just you know, watching field and just picking

608
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,000
Speaker 1: out those bits and pieces I can use to time

609
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:11,200
Speaker 1: I'm listening up better. Do you have a favorite sack? One?

610
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,600
Speaker 1: If we go one, I would say when I actually

611
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:18,040
Speaker 1: tied the record in Pittsburgh in twenty seventeen where I

612
00:30:18,080 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: had three. So it was that third one when I

613
00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: obviously tied the record is my favorite one. Now, what

614
00:30:23,800 --> 00:30:25,600
Speaker 1: was that record for three in a game or three

615
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,240
Speaker 1: three in a game? It was I say, Troy Polamalus

616
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:31,720
Speaker 1: on that list and Carneal Lakes on that list and myself.

617
00:30:31,760 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 1: So just knowing Pittsburgh history and being up there with

618
00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,040
Speaker 1: those guys, it's a great an. I have to find

619
00:30:37,040 --> 00:30:39,640
Speaker 1: out what records you're gonna break. Here we're talking to

620
00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 1: Mike Hilton. You became a free agent. You signed a

621
00:30:42,360 --> 00:30:44,680
Speaker 1: four year, twenty four million dollars deal with the Bengals.

622
00:30:44,720 --> 00:30:49,560
Speaker 1: That's generational changing wealth potentially. When you go from undrafted

623
00:30:49,600 --> 00:30:51,840
Speaker 1: free agent who had been let go a couple of

624
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:56,080
Speaker 1: times to highly coveted free agent signing a big deal.

625
00:30:56,720 --> 00:30:58,880
Speaker 1: Is it a little bit overwhelming? I wouldn't say so,

626
00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:00,880
Speaker 1: because I know how hard I've worded to get in

627
00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:04,400
Speaker 1: this position. From our early experiences being cut. That kind

628
00:31:04,440 --> 00:31:08,120
Speaker 1: of just got my mentality rolling, you know, being at

629
00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,800
Speaker 1: home and seeing other guys who honestly I felt like

630
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,160
Speaker 1: I was bettering, you know, out there competing on Sundays.

631
00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: I didn't let it get me down and you know,

632
00:31:15,480 --> 00:31:17,480
Speaker 1: over the four years I was able to perform and

633
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,240
Speaker 1: I'm ready to perform here and sense it. So since

634
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:24,160
Speaker 1: joining the Bengals, you have brought an accountability chart essentially

635
00:31:24,200 --> 00:31:27,280
Speaker 1: to the defensive backs room. Tell us about that one.

636
00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:28,960
Speaker 1: It's something I learned from the learning from Joe Hayden.

637
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,000
Speaker 1: So shout out Joe. I appreciation man, But you know,

638
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,760
Speaker 1: it's just something especially in the secondary, we're all about

639
00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,280
Speaker 1: getting getting our hands on the ball, being in great

640
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:40,360
Speaker 1: coverage and just making plays. And when I brought it here,

641
00:31:40,400 --> 00:31:42,760
Speaker 1: you know, guys really really embraced it because they know

642
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: if we're doing these things correctly, it's going to pay

643
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:49,440
Speaker 1: off one Sunday. So I'm excited to see see how

644
00:31:49,440 --> 00:31:52,800
Speaker 1: we fare Sunday. And one of the categories is apparently loafs.

645
00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,880
Speaker 1: You get punished for loafing. And as a defender of

646
00:31:56,040 --> 00:31:57,600
Speaker 1: the worst thing you can do is loath to the ball.

647
00:31:57,800 --> 00:31:59,520
Speaker 1: If all other team is running to the ball and

648
00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:02,040
Speaker 1: you're that one and this have a jog and sticking out,

649
00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,480
Speaker 1: it's gonna be seen. You're gonna get called out. So

650
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:07,080
Speaker 1: I kind of put that not just on the secondarybody

651
00:32:07,080 --> 00:32:08,560
Speaker 1: as a defense, as a whole like, we want to

652
00:32:08,600 --> 00:32:10,440
Speaker 1: be fast, we want to be physical, and we can't

653
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 1: have no lows. All right, let's get to some wildcard

654
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,880
Speaker 1: categories for Mike Hilton. Who is your all time favorite

655
00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: athlete in any sport? Any sport? Man, I have to

656
00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,520
Speaker 1: go with the King Lebron James Man. He's the goat.

657
00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:26,560
Speaker 1: He's the best to ever do it. And I'm kind

658
00:32:26,600 --> 00:32:28,720
Speaker 1: of saying his his career slowly coming to an end.

659
00:32:28,760 --> 00:32:31,440
Speaker 1: But you know, I've enjoyed watching him my whole lifetime.

660
00:32:31,600 --> 00:32:33,240
Speaker 1: Have you had a chance to meet him? I haven't,

661
00:32:33,280 --> 00:32:35,360
Speaker 1: but you know, hopefully one day, whether he's still playing

662
00:32:35,440 --> 00:32:38,000
Speaker 1: or not, I have that opportunity. All right, what do

663
00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,360
Speaker 1: you like to spend your money on? Oh? Man, we're

664
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:45,520
Speaker 1: getting personal. I'm gonna give a husband answer. I have

665
00:32:45,520 --> 00:32:47,120
Speaker 1: a wife and a daughter, so all my money goes

666
00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,920
Speaker 1: to them too, and you know, especially my daughter or

667
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:53,720
Speaker 1: whatever she wants. It's hard to say no, really them too.

668
00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,400
Speaker 1: How old is your daughter? And what's your favorite part

669
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,160
Speaker 1: about being a dad? She turned to on the nineteen

670
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: So she just turned to and favorite party. Just just

671
00:33:02,080 --> 00:33:04,200
Speaker 1: seeing them grow up, you know, every day is like

672
00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,280
Speaker 1: they learned something new, and you know, it just puts

673
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 1: a smile on my face and when every time I

674
00:33:09,280 --> 00:33:12,400
Speaker 1: come home or first word daddy, daddy. So it's a

675
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:15,560
Speaker 1: great feeling. Now we're gonna get really deep. If you

676
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:20,800
Speaker 1: could meet anybody in history, athlete, entertainer, statesman, for whatever

677
00:33:20,880 --> 00:33:25,720
Speaker 1: it might be, who would that person be? Anybody to meet?

678
00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,080
Speaker 1: I would say Michael Jackson. It's kind of an old

679
00:33:29,120 --> 00:33:31,200
Speaker 1: school answer. I like it. Yeah, man, I kind of

680
00:33:31,200 --> 00:33:33,720
Speaker 1: got an old school So then you know, I've raised

681
00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,200
Speaker 1: around a lot of older people, So that's what I know.

682
00:33:36,560 --> 00:33:38,720
Speaker 1: Do you have any hidden talents? I don't. That's what

683
00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:40,200
Speaker 1: we're gonna think about it. I don't. I don't play

684
00:33:40,200 --> 00:33:43,840
Speaker 1: any instruments, can't sing or nothing. So you know, God

685
00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 1: bless me. Play football. So that's what I'm doing. Last thing,

686
00:33:47,600 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 1: is there anything that you are really bad at? Really

687
00:33:52,320 --> 00:33:56,440
Speaker 1: bad at? I'll be honest, I'm not the best mathematician

688
00:33:56,640 --> 00:34:01,440
Speaker 1: like easy man. Yes, but if we go and you know, equations, fractions,

689
00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:04,520
Speaker 1: dancing with things get a little hectic for me. As

690
00:34:04,560 --> 00:34:06,320
Speaker 1: long as you know the value of a pick six,

691
00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:09,719
