Speaker 1: that more. Coming up. Tuesday is the player's day off,

8
00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 1: so there was no practice or media press conferences today,

9
00:00:28,080 --> 00:00:30,360
Speaker 1: So joining me here inside the Broncos Podcast studio is

10
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 1: Hall of Famer mister Steve Atwater. Steve, how are we

11
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:32,960
Speaker 1: doing today?

12
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:34,159
Speaker 2: Wonderful? See it? How are you?

13
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:37,120
Speaker 1: I'm doing good, right, Steve. We're going to start off

14
00:00:37,120 --> 00:00:39,159
Speaker 1: the show today with some fan questions. We had a

15
00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: couple of fans submit them. You're on Twitter today. First one,

16
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:45,800
Speaker 1: how could the Broncos pass rush bounce back against the

17
00:00:45,800 --> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: Commanders this week? As we know you know last weekend

18
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,880
Speaker 1: versus the Raiders, they didn't record a single sack.

19
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,519
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't have any sacks.

20
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 3: But I thought the primary focus for the defense was

21
00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 3: and should have been and stopping to run, and they

22
00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: did an excellent job of that.

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: Uh.

24
00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,559
Speaker 3: You know, Kep keeping jobs Jacobs under one hundred yards there,

25
00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:12,119
Speaker 3: But yeah, we want to get that pass rush going,

26
00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,560
Speaker 3: and I'm sure they will, they'll get it going. But again, Jimmy,

27
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 3: he was also getting that ball out super quickly, you know,

28
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,320
Speaker 3: and he knew exactly where he wanted to go with

29
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:26,080
Speaker 3: the ball too, So you know, he's a pretty intelligent quarterback.

30
00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:27,959
Speaker 2: He's running the system that.

31
00:01:28,240 --> 00:01:31,400
Speaker 3: You know, he knows well, he's he's he was in

32
00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,840
Speaker 3: that system prior to him going to San Francisco, so

33
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 3: he knew where he was going with the ball. And

34
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:39,920
Speaker 3: and they made some plays. You got to give the

35
00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:43,080
Speaker 3: Raiders credit. They made some plays when they had to,

36
00:01:43,280 --> 00:01:45,840
Speaker 3: and uh, we got to do a better job defensively

37
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 3: coming up with some of those plays. So it won't

38
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 3: won't shine the light on that on that on the

39
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 3: lack of pressure, because I think we'll we'll have our

40
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,320
Speaker 3: fair share of those over over the course of the season.

41
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 3: But uh, this I just think I don't think this

42
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,960
Speaker 3: was a game where that was the focus for sure.

43
00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,600
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean you mentioned the defense was able to

44
00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: hold Josh Jacobs. The game plan going into Sunday's game

45
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 1: was to stop their key playmakers. I mean, DeVante Adams,

46
00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: Josh Jacobs, and they did a really good job with that.

47
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, they did that.

48
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 3: And you know, normally, when you take away the playmakers,

49
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,919
Speaker 3: you you win the ball game. And that's every coaches

50
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 3: goal is to, Hey, we got to neutralize their playmakers.

51
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,480
Speaker 2: And we did that.

52
00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:30,160
Speaker 3: But again, I said this on our post game show,

53
00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:34,280
Speaker 3: in those situations when things are going slow, it's kind

54
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 3: of back and forth. Somebody's got to make a play offensively, defensively,

55
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 3: special teams while somebody somebody's got to come up with

56
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,080
Speaker 3: a big play. And and think people got to have

57
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,079
Speaker 3: that in the back of their minds that hey, man,

58
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:47,560
Speaker 3: this this play, this is my play.

59
00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:48,400
Speaker 2: I'm going to do it.

60
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:51,519
Speaker 3: Uh, And that'll help get.

61
00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:52,520
Speaker 2: Us over the hum for sure.

62
00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:55,600
Speaker 1: Well, so you've sticking with the defense. Our next question

63
00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: submitted by FAM this week is what adjustments can the

64
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:02,280
Speaker 1: Broncos defense make this weekend going against you know, a

65
00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:03,680
Speaker 1: younger quarterback in this league.

66
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 2: Well, I think that.

67
00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,720
Speaker 3: With the type of offense that the Commanders run, will

68
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:13,320
Speaker 3: get a chance to dialop some pressures on this quarterback,

69
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 3: a younger quarterback, second year in the league. He came in.

70
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,639
Speaker 3: I thought he did a nice job last year. He

71
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: got some planning time last year. But we also have

72
00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 3: to try and confuse them. You know, most of young quarterbacks.

73
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 3: You know, you can confuse them some by disguising the

74
00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: defensive coverages and faking pressures when you're not pressuring, or

75
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 3: not showing the pressure when you're going to send pressure.

76
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,320
Speaker 3: And we still have to do the thing that helped

77
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,760
Speaker 3: us this past week. Although we didn't win the game,

78
00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 3: we got to stop the run. We got to stop it.

79
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: That's got to be our primary objective every game is

80
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 3: to stop the run, make them pass, and then take

81
00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,480
Speaker 3: away their best receivers. So I don't think the strategy

82
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 3: will change. It will change something just because he will

83
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:04,120
Speaker 3: have more five step drops. You know, he's going to

84
00:04:04,520 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 3: try to chuck the ball down down the field of

85
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 3: some of their their playmakers mclauren and them, and so

86
00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 3: we'll have have some opportunities to get to the quarterback.

87
00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:14,720
Speaker 2: I think.

88
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,600
Speaker 1: All right, last fan submitted question here for you which

89
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,280
Speaker 1: Bronc are you most excited to watch in week two?

90
00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:23,800
Speaker 2: And uh? In week two?

91
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 3: You know, Uh, it's a couple of guys, both Jonathan

92
00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:37,800
Speaker 3: Cooper and Nick Bonito, younger guys. I know the fans

93
00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,400
Speaker 3: being I know a ton about them, and Randy Gregory

94
00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 3: and Frank Clark as well, but these two guys in

95
00:04:43,279 --> 00:04:46,280
Speaker 3: training camp, they just jump kind of jumped off the charts,

96
00:04:46,320 --> 00:04:49,160
Speaker 3: and again, I think that we're going to see a

97
00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 3: little bit more pressure this week. So I'm super excited

98
00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 3: to see those guys get to the quarterback and and

99
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:58,240
Speaker 3: the speed that Nick Bonito hash and when he gets there,

100
00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 3: he's coming with reckless and tension. So I'm looking forward

101
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:05,360
Speaker 3: to seeing he and Jonathan Cooper. Jonathan Cooper had had

102
00:05:06,120 --> 00:05:10,560
Speaker 3: some type of hand injury last year and yeah, I

103
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 3: missed a significant amount of time. So he's back healthy.

104
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: He's he's raring to go too, so it should be exciting.

105
00:05:17,640 --> 00:05:19,159
Speaker 3: It should be exciting on the edge.

106
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, definitely. Broncos Country, thank you for submitting questions this week.

107
00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: We'll be doing this every single Tuesday, so if you

108
00:05:24,160 --> 00:05:26,320
Speaker 1: have any questions for Steve, make sure to drop them

109
00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:28,800
Speaker 1: in our comment section, tweet at us whatever you can

110
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:31,640
Speaker 1: to get to us so you've get him into the episode.

111
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,000
Speaker 2: Now.

112
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 1: You know, when you look at the Broncos game Week

113
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,320
Speaker 1: one versus the Raiders, I mean we've already talked about

114
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,680
Speaker 1: the defense a lot, So let's shift gears to the offense.

115
00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 1: I mean, it felt like the offense moved the ball

116
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: really well overwater. What did you just think about Russell's

117
00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:45,559
Speaker 1: performance to open this season.

118
00:05:45,600 --> 00:05:49,720
Speaker 3: I thought russ had a solid performance, and you know,

119
00:05:49,760 --> 00:05:51,600
Speaker 3: he used his legs when he had to, which he

120
00:05:51,600 --> 00:05:54,039
Speaker 3: didn't have to. I think he only had one one run,

121
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,440
Speaker 3: but he sat in the pocket, he made good reads,

122
00:05:57,880 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 3: made really good decisions.

123
00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 2: I didn't have the interceptions. Uh.

124
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 3: And again, they were moving the ball pretty well, and

125
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 3: they especially their first drive, they went right down well

126
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:12,200
Speaker 3: unfortunately openand I'm sorry at Las Vegas they did that

127
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,680
Speaker 3: to us. They drove down the field on us, and

128
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:17,480
Speaker 3: then we came right back and drove right down the

129
00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:20,039
Speaker 3: field for a touchdown. So those are the types of

130
00:06:20,040 --> 00:06:22,520
Speaker 3: things you like to see, especially early in the season,

131
00:06:22,600 --> 00:06:25,880
Speaker 3: because that gives you something really solid to build upon,

132
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,000
Speaker 3: just just knowing that, hey, we can put together a

133
00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:30,680
Speaker 3: long drive. That we did that in the first game,

134
00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,920
Speaker 3: so you know, second, third, fourth game, it should be

135
00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:34,480
Speaker 3: a gimme for sure.

136
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,279
Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about those long drives, Steve. We

137
00:06:37,360 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 1: talked a lot about this on Monday during the podcast,

138
00:06:39,960 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: and I know had coached on. Payne addressed it in

139
00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: his press conference because of those longer drives the offense

140
00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 1: on the six possessions, I mean both the Broncos and

141
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 1: the Raiders on the six possessions, that is very unusual.

142
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:52,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, that's very unusual.

143
00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:58,400
Speaker 3: And because there weren't the eternal overs either, the teams

144
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:03,240
Speaker 3: just held on and you know, had sustained drives. And

145
00:07:03,600 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 3: I think that's really shows it to really fishing offenses.

146
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 2: And yeah, you know, defensively, I don't think you.

147
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,520
Speaker 3: Can really say we had a terrible defensive game. They

148
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:18,600
Speaker 3: just they played a smart offensive game and they were methodical.

149
00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 3: They weren't taking a ton of risks, and we we

150
00:07:20,880 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 3: kind of played the same way. Uh. Now, I think

151
00:07:23,560 --> 00:07:27,840
Speaker 3: going forward we will take more chances. There will be

152
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: some balls, some deep balls thrown. You know, we didn't

153
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 3: see a ton of those, yeah this last week. But

154
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:34,640
Speaker 3: you know that's part of Sean Payton's deal. He's going

155
00:07:34,680 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 3: to get that ball down the field and he's going

156
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 3: to score some points. So Roco stuntry, don't don't don't,

157
00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:43,440
Speaker 3: don't get upset. We're right where we want to be now.

158
00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:45,800
Speaker 3: We want to be one to know, right now. But uh,

159
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:48,160
Speaker 3: in terms of I think the development of the team,

160
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:49,880
Speaker 3: I think we're right where we want to be.

161
00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 1: You mentioned it, Steve. You know, we didn't see a

162
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 1: lot of those explosive plays, you know, in week one,

163
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:58,680
Speaker 1: and I know head coach Sean Payne contributed maybe some

164
00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 1: of that to the absence of Jerry Judy and Greg Dolsage.

165
00:08:01,400 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: And we're still uncertain about Greg Dolcice's status as of

166
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: this moment right now. But looking ahead, who do you

167
00:08:07,800 --> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: really want to see step up? You know, RUSS needs

168
00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: some more playmakers out there.

169
00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, they do.

170
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:15,360
Speaker 3: And I think we have quite a few playmakers on

171
00:08:15,400 --> 00:08:17,800
Speaker 3: the team, and I think it's really a matter of

172
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,360
Speaker 3: the numbers being called. You know, I think Brandon Johns

173
00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:24,920
Speaker 3: can make plays. I think Marvin Mahams can make plays. Also,

174
00:08:25,320 --> 00:08:28,040
Speaker 3: Philip dors Sat, the other receiver man. He's been looking

175
00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 3: explosive at practice, you know, A former first round draft pick.

176
00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:35,840
Speaker 3: I think he has some skills and you know, some

177
00:08:35,840 --> 00:08:37,679
Speaker 3: some playmaking abilities, a.

178
00:08:37,600 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 2: Lot of a lot.

179
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:39,880
Speaker 3: You know, I'm not sure how much he's left in

180
00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 3: the tank. Something up in the tank there for this season,

181
00:08:42,880 --> 00:08:45,480
Speaker 3: So it's just a matter of dialing it up. And

182
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:48,079
Speaker 3: you know who does Sean Payton want to want to

183
00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,200
Speaker 3: put the focus on. And I'm hoping Greg Dolcage is back.

184
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 3: If he's not, hey, somebody else got to step up.

185
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:53,800
Speaker 2: You know.

186
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,400
Speaker 3: Adam troupman, he had a couple of nice catches.

187
00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:01,440
Speaker 2: Will Jordan Humphrey Jordan humph for Yeah, that's right.

188
00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny. He went from practice squad Saturday making

189
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,439
Speaker 1: the team's first touchdown of the season on Sunday.

190
00:09:08,600 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 2: Hey, it was the show. You never know, you got

191
00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:13,080
Speaker 2: to always be ready, that's true.

192
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: Well, we did hear Sean Payton say on Monday that

193
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,880
Speaker 1: safety kyten Stearns he was getting an MRI done. We

194
00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,719
Speaker 1: of course, you know, saw him exit Sunday's game with

195
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,040
Speaker 1: that injury. No kind of word yet on what his

196
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 1: status is, but Steve looking at safety depth, I mean,

197
00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,560
Speaker 1: after Justin Simmons and Cream Jackson, you got Dlaren Turner, yell,

198
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 1: Jyl Skinner.

199
00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:32,360
Speaker 2: I know PJ.

200
00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,480
Speaker 1: Lock He's on injured reserve as well. He won't be

201
00:09:34,520 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: back for several weeks. So what do you like about

202
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,079
Speaker 1: some of those younger guys.

203
00:09:38,240 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, also Devin Key, Yeah, he's a safety. I think

204
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 3: he was with the Chiefs maybe last year, but man

205
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:50,440
Speaker 3: in the preseason and last preseason game, he played really well.

206
00:09:50,480 --> 00:09:53,199
Speaker 3: He was a physical guy, looks like he flies around

207
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 3: to the ball was in the right place.

208
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,680
Speaker 2: So we have some options there.

209
00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 3: Jael Skinner young guy I think has a ton of.

210
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 2: Potential as well.

211
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:04,640
Speaker 3: And d Lauren Turner Yell, you know, he's he's was

212
00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:07,800
Speaker 3: flying around all during uh during training camp, So we

213
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 3: have some some bible options. Obviously, we hate to see

214
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,640
Speaker 3: Katen Stearns go down. I think he's one of the

215
00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 3: most talented players on this team and uh he had,

216
00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 3: you know, a huge year ahead of him. And uh again,

217
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 3: we don't know how how long he'll be out. Hopefully

218
00:10:22,640 --> 00:10:25,120
Speaker 3: it's not not for the for the full season, but

219
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 3: you know, my prayers go out to him. He's a

220
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:31,640
Speaker 3: he's a he's a nice young man and I'm hoping

221
00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 3: that he's able to bounce back from this.

222
00:10:33,320 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 2: We too, for sure.

223
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,880

Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always great to get the guys back and

228
00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,079
Speaker 3: there are some guys that we see kind of regularly

229
00:10:50,440 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 3: during the season, but there are a lot of guys

230
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,960
Speaker 3: who they only come back when they have, uh you know,

231
00:10:55,960 --> 00:10:58,520
Speaker 3: when the team has special events going on, right, and uh,

232
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:03,840
Speaker 3: this this is a special event. My whole entire career

233
00:11:03,960 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 3: was really special. But man, those two years where we

234

239
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:23,959
Speaker 2: to have a great time.

240
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:29,199
Speaker 3: We're all still really good friends, and everybody's respectful of

241
00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 3: each other, and it's just really a beautiful thing. And

242
00:11:32,640 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 3: I always, I always wish that every player could get

243
00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:39,760
Speaker 3: a chance to experience winning the Super Bowl and being

244
00:11:40,600 --> 00:11:43,320
Speaker 3: in that environment where everything goes the way that you want.

245
00:11:43,400 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 3: Not everything is, You're going to have some adversity, but

246
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 3: in the end you're able to get it down to

247
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,520
Speaker 3: reach the goal that you've been striving for for so long.

248
00:11:50,920 --> 00:11:53,960
Speaker 3: I wish every player could could get that.

249
00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:54,679

261
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:23,600
Speaker 3: great personality to guy. He's the most likable guy in

262
00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,520

266
00:12:34,280 --> 00:12:35,520
Speaker 2: ring here, and that probably.

267
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 3: You'll probably get it in Dallas and then you'll probably
