Yes, yes, finish the season differently in Philadelphia. 12 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,640 Speaker 1: This time we weren't playing the same game obviously. And 13 00:00:44,680 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: since we're talking about the end, I think the most 14 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: special moment was the end. It was coordinated for you 15 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: to be in the locker room to celebrate Bobby Wagner 16 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,760 Speaker 1: joining you and Ray Lewis as the only players ever 17 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 1: to reach two thousand career tech. So before we hand 18 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: out the belt, because he's the current reigning champion of 19 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:08,760 Speaker 1: the Heavyweight Championship Belt, can you just share some of 20 00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: your memories of being part of that moment? 21 00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 3: Man, it was it was surreal. 22 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:16,399 Speaker 2: I was humbled and honored that Coach Quinn asked me 23 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:19,760 Speaker 2: to be a part of that, to be in that 24 00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 2: moment and share that with Bobby, And I started like 25 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: kind of reflecting on what I wanted to say, because 26 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:31,600 Speaker 2: you think about, man, this is two thousand tackles. I 27 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,880 Speaker 2: haven't even thought about it for myself like this until 28 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,320 Speaker 2: I was thinking about it for Bobby. It's like the 29 00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: number is one thing, but when you realize the milestone 30 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: and all it took to to accomplish that, it's like 31 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 2: thousands upon thousands of hours of film study, preparation off season, 32 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 2: taking care of your body, paying playing through injuries, sustain excellence, 33 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,800 Speaker 2: and commitment to excellence year after year after year after year. 34 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: Like most people aren't willing to do that or able 35 00:02:06,040 --> 00:02:08,640 Speaker 2: to do that. They just aren't most players. And and 36 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: for for him to accomplish that and then just like 37 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: it was like, man, it was it was. It was awesome. 38 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:17,720 Speaker 2: It was freaking awesome. And to be at a honor 39 00:02:17,800 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 2: him and it was a win that made it even 40 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 2: more special. 41 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was really cool. 42 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: You've been around a lot of great players too, do 43 00:02:24,200 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: you what do you think, like there's verifiable Hall of 44 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: famers that have been playing on this roster. This year, 45 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: von Miller reached number nine all time in sacks. So 46 00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: I know it's been a really rough year, but there 47 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,520 Speaker 1: have been some really incredible moments and things I think 48 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 1: we're going to take away from this season. 49 00:02:39,080 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, even like piggybacking on the Bobby thing, 50 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 4: Like I just like there's I was trying to think 51 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 4: of a metric that was like the same. You know, 52 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,280 Speaker 4: there's been a bunch of two thousand yard rushers, maybe 53 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:49,600 Speaker 4: two thousand yard receiver would be the other one, because 54 00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 4: no one's really done that. But like in terms of 55 00:02:51,560 --> 00:02:54,800 Speaker 4: the physical violence of that milestone and the longevity required, 56 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 4: it's like in its own pantheon of just uniqueness and 57 00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:00,520 Speaker 4: so like to think about Bobby and to see it, 58 00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 4: like to have played with Fletch, which is really special, 59 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 4: and then to see Bobby do it is really a 60 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: testament to him. And then obviously Vaughn doing what he 61 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 4: did Zach the milestones that he accomplished this year. I 62 00:03:10,480 --> 00:03:13,720 Speaker 4: think it's great to kind of see those veteran players 63 00:03:13,919 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 4: and their impact on the younger guys on the team. 64 00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 4: I know, like it might not have felt it this 65 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 4: year exactly. But like I think, I don't know if 66 00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,240 Speaker 4: you guys saw that Chase young thing. I think you 67 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 4: sent it in the group chat right, like and the and 68 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 4: like how he was talking about the importance of like 69 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,400 Speaker 4: Cam Jordan and the linebacker from New Orleans who played 70 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 4: for a long time like Davis, and I think about 71 00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,200 Speaker 4: and it was funny watching that, Like I think, I 72 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 4: think about my like the impact Fletch had on me. 73 00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,120 Speaker 4: He'd have to say anything to me, but like just 74 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 4: the way he handle his business. And having these three 75 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 4: guys that we just mentioned, Nauston Eckler two in the 76 00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,680 Speaker 4: room for these young players, like it might not pay 77 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:47,200 Speaker 4: dividends this season, but I think it'll pay dividends down 78 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 4: the road. 79 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, and even and even thinking about Bobby and you 80 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: think about as I mentioned, the sustained dominance in the 81 00:03:56,040 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 2: commitment to excellens year after year at the year, so 82 00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,680 Speaker 2: I started thinking about, like I say, very few players 83 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: are willing or able to do that. So von Miller 84 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 2: nice all time in sacks, He's one of those guys 85 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,120 Speaker 2: that has done it. 86 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 3: Zach Hurts. 87 00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:16,599 Speaker 2: And it's Bobby Terry is doing it like as you 88 00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:20,159 Speaker 2: as he continues to do build his career up. And 89 00:04:20,920 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 2: the younger players, and not even just younger players, older players, 90 00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:27,120 Speaker 2: they can learn so much by watching these guys because 91 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:29,280 Speaker 2: a lot of guys they'll have, you know, flash in 92 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,359 Speaker 2: the pan types of even trustway as well he's doing it. 93 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,560 Speaker 2: They'll have a fat, flashing plan, have a great season, 94 00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:39,880 Speaker 2: maybe even have two. But can you do that over 95 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,600 Speaker 2: and over and over again? It's hard, man, but it's 96 00:04:42,600 --> 00:04:43,360 Speaker 2: what's required. 97 00:04:43,839 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 5: And it's funny. 98 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 4: Like listen you say, like you know, willing or able, 99 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,960 Speaker 4: you know, and like I think about my process and everyone, 100 00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,800 Speaker 4: like you know, my agent and coaches were like, man, logan, 101 00:04:52,880 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 4: your process was so good, and so I was very 102 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 4: willing to kind of go on this journey and try 103 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 4: to be great, but I physically didn't have the tools. 104 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:03,680 Speaker 4: And so it's really cool, like storm perfect storm of 105 00:05:03,760 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 4: like when talent, preparation, hard work all come together in 106 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,120 Speaker 4: these individuals. 107 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,040 Speaker 5: You know that, you know, we're very very talented. 108 00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,760 Speaker 4: Like that's something that's extremely special, Like you know, I 109 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:15,640 Speaker 4: think Fletch can test this, like I like we've both 110 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,239 Speaker 4: seen over the course of our careers, like really really 111 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:22,160 Speaker 4: talented young players that play for three years. But it's 112 00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 4: the it's the really like the ones that you know 113 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 4: are special, the guys that put the work in and 114 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 4: grind and work tirelessly to get better take care of themselves. 115 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,720 Speaker 4: And again like that's that's where you see this or 116 00:05:31,760 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 4: what everyone thinks, oh, two thousand tackles, Man, he must 117 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 4: just be crazy. No, man, no one gets that milestone 118 00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 4: without absolutely pouring it out and loving football. So absolutely, 119 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 4: it's just it's a really cool thing to see. 120 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 2: And my last point, you think all the offense offensive 121 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 2: players are always getting recognized running backs. Can you can 122 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,440 Speaker 2: name the all of the top rushers in the NFA, 123 00:05:53,440 --> 00:05:58,320 Speaker 2: the NPPs of quarterback every year quarterbacks they get highlighted receptions. 124 00:05:58,600 --> 00:06:02,320 Speaker 2: You highlight sex and even interceptions not to the same 125 00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 2: level as sex, but you hardly ever hear anybody talk 126 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 2: about guys that are elite, elite tacklers. So I'm glad 127 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 2: with Bobby doing this, we're able to illuminate the guys 128 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:18,520 Speaker 2: that make make tackles. 129 00:06:18,720 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 4: And it's so funny, Like we went and watched the 130 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:23,360 Speaker 4: film together, you know, and like I think, you know, 131 00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 4: like everyone says like it's important to tackle, it's important, 132 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,480 Speaker 4: but when you watch a play defense with a guy 133 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,000 Speaker 4: who knows defense like Flush does you realize like every 134 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,960 Speaker 4: play ends with a tackle, so if someone's if you're 135 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:38,839 Speaker 4: not good at it, it matriculates through the entire game. 136 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,200 Speaker 4: And so it is funny that this thing that is 137 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:43,640 Speaker 4: like pivotal, like you know what is it? Blocking, tackling, 138 00:06:43,680 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 4: catching the football? Like we don't talk about it in 139 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 4: a way that is it should be reviewed. 140 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:52,480 Speaker 2: Talking about it, Miss, we'll talk about when they were made. 141 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: Of the three of you, ray Lewis, you Bobby, like 142 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,719 Speaker 1: about me for a second. What I find really interesting 143 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,000 Speaker 1: is like ray Lewis came out of the U, we 144 00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:03,919 Speaker 1: have the seventh overall pick in the draft. He'd be 145 00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:07,120 Speaker 1: on our draft board as the right That wasn't you 146 00:07:07,279 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: or Bobby When you guys started your careers. You also 147 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 1: similarly like one very early in your career, you won 148 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:16,960 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl with say Louis very early. Bobby was 149 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,920 Speaker 1: on one of the best defenses of this century, Legion 150 00:07:19,920 --> 00:07:23,679 Speaker 1: to Boom early in his career. And you both found 151 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: your way to different places and kept that standard going 152 00:07:26,920 --> 00:07:27,920 Speaker 1: throughout all of it. 153 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 3: It really truly is amazing. 154 00:07:29,440 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 2: And then just he was a basketball player in high 155 00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 2: school too, mainly didn't play football until his last two 156 00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: years of high school. His bob didn't really want him 157 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 2: playing football, so he ended up playing last two years 158 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:46,760 Speaker 2: and similar as me, I was a basketball player. I 159 00:07:46,760 --> 00:07:49,160 Speaker 2: only played my last year high school, so one year 160 00:07:49,240 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 2: high school football. 161 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 3: It's crazy. 162 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: I think that athleticism and as you mentioned, just a 163 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 2: journey being around great veterans, to say, guys modeling and 164 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,600 Speaker 2: learning the routine. But it's uh, whether it's Ray Lewis, 165 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,200 Speaker 2: whether it's Von Miller, Bobby Wagner, myself. You have to 166 00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:12,280 Speaker 2: have the passion for this game because it's hard. 167 00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 3: Man. It is extremely hard to people talk. 168 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 2: Hey, these guys getting paid a lot of money, the 169 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 2: money is not enough, like to want to continue to 170 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,880 Speaker 2: put your body through this over and over again for 171 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 2: you know, decade plus. 172 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 3: That's why it's not for everyone. 173 00:08:29,600 --> 00:08:31,480 Speaker 4: It's funny you mentioned the money, Like I remember, I 174 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,560 Speaker 4: didn't care. I didn't really even look at my paycheck 175 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 4: at all. 176 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 3: You still don't look at you. 177 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, But the first like eight or eight years of 178 00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 4: my career and then when I got to year nine 179 00:08:38,720 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 4: and ten, I have to check it because I was 180 00:08:41,040 --> 00:08:42,559 Speaker 4: like I knew that's when I was coming to the 181 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 4: end because the passion for it was starting to kind 182 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: of wane. And again the guys that are great, like 183 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:50,280 Speaker 4: they care about the money. It's important obviously, but like 184 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 4: I was talking to Caroline on the way over here. 185 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 4: We were talking about it soccer clean out day and 186 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 4: everyone's and it's like, how did you feel when the 187 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,320 Speaker 4: season was over? And even after a good year, you 188 00:08:57,360 --> 00:09:00,079 Speaker 4: felt kind of like relieved because the grind of it 189 00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 4: was over. And people, I don't think really understand the 190 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:05,679 Speaker 4: gravity of the physical and mental and emotional commitment to 191 00:09:05,720 --> 00:09:07,960 Speaker 4: the game. And so for a guy to do it 192 00:09:08,000 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 4: for thirteen years, like do you put like you tell 193 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 4: me nothing about a person. Nothing about a person just 194 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 4: say they played in the NFL for thirteen years. I 195 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:19,560 Speaker 4: know so much about that person's physical, emotional, mental makeup 196 00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:22,800 Speaker 4: because of the the attention to detail, the requirement, the 197 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 4: professionalism that it takes to do that. 198 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I really in the end, I hope that 199 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,800 Speaker 1: the two of you are at each other's induction ceremonies. 200 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 5: That'd be cool. 201 00:09:29,320 --> 00:09:30,600 Speaker 3: Hall of Fame, that would be really cool. 202 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,480 Speaker 1: All right, before we do the bell, because it normally 203 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:34,319 Speaker 1: you announced the contender, I want to announce it here 204 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: because I think it's very similar. The story's incredible. Josh 205 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,320 Speaker 1: Johnson had a great game. Josh Johnson's thirty nine years old. 206 00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 1: Josh Johnson. You know it was only making his eleventh 207 00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: or twelfth start. The rushing touchdown he had that won 208 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: the game. That was his second rushing touchdown ever since 209 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 1: two thousand and eight. He hadn't thrown a touchdown pass 210 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:56,679 Speaker 1: since twenty twenty one. Here he was Dan quick one one. 211 00:09:57,000 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 1: He only had a couple starts. It only played sparingly 212 00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: like here. He is eighteen years into his career. I 213 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 1: was talking to Dad Quid last week before the game, 214 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:06,480 Speaker 1: and he's like, he was the guy who was in 215 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: here at six am for all the meetings getting ready, 216 00:10:09,640 --> 00:10:12,280 Speaker 1: like savoring the opportunity, knowing it could be one of 217 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,560 Speaker 1: the last ones of his career. So this is the 218 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 1: most worthy heavyweight contender belt ever Josh Shahnts did at 219 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,520 Speaker 1: thirty nine on a four and twelve team, winning the 220 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 1: game partially with his legs versus an all timer who 221 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:27,920 Speaker 1: joined a club that only has two other members in it. 222 00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:28,839 Speaker 3: Man, this is tough. 223 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:34,880 Speaker 2: So Bobby's the right, He's the defendant chap he has 224 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 2: the belt curly and you mentioned Josh Johnson. He last 225 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:42,680 Speaker 2: yesterday was the stats fourteen for twenty two one hundred 226 00:10:42,720 --> 00:10:46,040 Speaker 2: and thirty one yards forty five yards rushing at every 227 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 2: single one of those rush yards were important. Makes some 228 00:10:48,640 --> 00:10:52,199 Speaker 2: great decisions to avoid the rush scrabbles, stuff like that. 229 00:10:54,200 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 5: Two thousand tackles. 230 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,920 Speaker 2: Tackles, you know you got to you gotta beat the 231 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:04,560 Speaker 2: chap him. I love what Josh did well. I can't 232 00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 2: go against the guy who had two thous tackle club 233 00:11:07,960 --> 00:11:14,480 Speaker 2: Man Rich and Steal Heavyweight Champion of the Commanders Big 234 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 2: Fletch Heavyweight Championship Belt, Bobby Wagner. 235 00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 3: Very good you mentioned Terry. I just want to mention 236 00:11:22,880 --> 00:11:23,439 Speaker 3: one other. 237 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:26,400 Speaker 1: Things from the game yesterday before we get into kind 238 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 1: of a season review of what's happened this year, And 239 00:11:29,120 --> 00:11:31,600 Speaker 1: with Terry, like, I know how much you love to 240 00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:34,840 Speaker 1: watch film the teaching tape for the Eagles and their 241 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:39,280 Speaker 1: backup corners. Dealing with that really honestly felt like we 242 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,679 Speaker 1: were watching a preseason game where the starters were playing 243 00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: for one team and the guys trying to make the 244 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:47,839 Speaker 1: team were on the opposite side of the field, and 245 00:11:47,960 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 1: Terry took them to school the only thing they could 246 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 1: do was tackle him by the by the middle of 247 00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:54,679 Speaker 1: the game, and they drew so many penalties. I think 248 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 1: you see the expertise of McLaurin and how different he 249 00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:00,839 Speaker 1: is than players who are inex out there. 250 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:02,720 Speaker 4: I mean, we talked about how impressive Bobby was, how 251 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,040 Speaker 4: impressive Josh was. I just think about like the consistency 252 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:08,040 Speaker 4: that Terry plays with, like his ability to go out 253 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,959 Speaker 4: I mean, like this is the third quarterback he's catching 254 00:12:10,960 --> 00:12:13,120 Speaker 4: passes from this year, Like how many passes has he 255 00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,440 Speaker 4: caught from Josh Johnson this year? I'm sure it's not 256 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:17,720 Speaker 4: a lot, you know what I'm saying in terms of 257 00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 4: practice repetitions, and so for him to go out there 258 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 4: and just be the model of consistency, like be in 259 00:12:23,200 --> 00:12:25,719 Speaker 4: the right spot where these guys can trust him, and 260 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 4: the end you talked about like the route running nuance 261 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:29,520 Speaker 4: to kind of help him set up some of these 262 00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:32,600 Speaker 4: pis that he's able to draw. Like it's unbelievable, and 263 00:12:32,679 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 4: like you know, there's always you and I talk all 264 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 4: the time like where does he rank in the in 265 00:12:37,280 --> 00:12:39,719 Speaker 4: the current wide receiver landscape? And part of me thinks 266 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:42,040 Speaker 4: that's like it's not even relevant anymore because for this team, 267 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,960 Speaker 4: he just does so much and he's so consistent and 268 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 4: he's able. 269 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 1: To absence was felt throughout the whole year. Didn't know it, 270 00:12:48,160 --> 00:12:50,240 Speaker 1: you felt it with him not being out there. 271 00:12:50,360 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, and like so again, like that game to me 272 00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:55,760 Speaker 4: was like a nice cherry on the top for his 273 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,880 Speaker 4: season because of how it's just everything he does well. 274 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:02,680 Speaker 4: It's just consistent. The football runs great routes like create 275 00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:08,479 Speaker 4: separation in the right spot like pattor yeah, Pat, dog competitor. 276 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 2: Regardless of their starters weren't in These are pros on 277 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:15,319 Speaker 2: the on the other side of the ball, like. 278 00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 5: Keiy Ringo was going to start for them this year. 279 00:13:17,160 --> 00:13:19,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, and he was all we had a draft pick. 280 00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 5: I don't know where he was, like a second round pick. 281 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, play at Georgia, right, yeah. 282 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 5: Or Alabama one of those. 283 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:29,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, biggest sec and me he had a rough day yesterday. 284 00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:32,840 Speaker 2: Taylor's given a lot of DB's rough days. In particular, 285 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:34,679 Speaker 2: He's given a lot of Philadelphia Eagles. 286 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:35,880 Speaker 3: That's right, rough days. 287 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: Fifth player franchise history to hit one thousand yards in 288 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:43,040 Speaker 1: his career against Philadelphia. That also his volume of games obviously, 289 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: that's crazy. His first actually his he jumped out on 290 00:13:46,000 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 1: the scene. His first game was in Philadelphia. Yes, and 291 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: I'll never forget this because Jay Gruden basically hit him 292 00:13:52,600 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: in training camp. They didn't play him in the preseason. 293 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: Is a rookie, right, and mid third round pick. I'd 294 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: never seen anything like that. They knew and they unleashed 295 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:03,839 Speaker 1: him on them, and he had his first huge game. 296 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 3: There. 297 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 1: The other names that have reached the thousand arge in 298 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: their career against Philadelphia, Art Monk, Bobby Mitchell, Charlie Taylor, 299 00:14:09,920 --> 00:14:12,720 Speaker 1: all Hall of famers. Gary Clark honestly should be a 300 00:14:12,720 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: Hall of Famer. So it kind of tells you testament 301 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:15,040 Speaker 1: is correct. 302 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:16,679 Speaker 4: So it's crazy Tanna is on that list. I mean, 303 00:14:16,760 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 4: just to show how good it is. Because Tanne was 304 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 4: being really dominant against Philly. But he yes, his most 305 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 4: yards receiving against Philly. 306 00:14:23,000 --> 00:14:24,160 Speaker 5: Does he over Dallas? 307 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: I forget, He's got a lot moments came against Dallas. 308 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 5: Correct. 309 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:33,760 Speaker 2: I think Dallas. He has the most yards against New York. 310 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,640 Speaker 2: Is New York is second? Is? I think Dallas against Philly, 311 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:41,640 Speaker 2: he said he never really had like big, big games 312 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 2: against him. I think Philly has some they have some 313 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,840 Speaker 2: some corners the years, and they with Jim Johnson was 314 00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 2: their defensive coordinator. 315 00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:50,240 Speaker 3: I know you remember him. 316 00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, man, you talk about what Flores is now, Yeah, 317 00:14:54,040 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 2: that was Jim Johnson, the late great Jim Josson. 318 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 3: He would dial up. 319 00:14:58,560 --> 00:14:59,080 Speaker 5: Yeah. 320 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 2: He had big, all physical corners, Troy Vincent, Bobby Taylor, 321 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 2: Al Harris was over there. 322 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 3: Yes, Jackfield. 323 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 2: For Terry to be able to do what he's done 324 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 2: against the Eagles, I mean I knew he was gonna 325 00:15:16,640 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 2: have a good game against those guys. Now, if he 326 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 2: didn't have those those pis, how many yards woul they 327 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:22,160 Speaker 2: have had? 328 00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:26,200 Speaker 1: The trace he needed ninety six to get to seven thousand, 329 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:28,600 Speaker 1: and he fell short of that because they kept tackling 330 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 1: him roots. He needed six catches to get to five hundred. 331 00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:35,400 Speaker 1: He needs two more heading into next season because they 332 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:37,920 Speaker 1: kept tackling him. So he's gonna hit two major benchmarks 333 00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 1: five hundred catches, seven thousand yards probably in Week one 334 00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,120 Speaker 1: next year, assuming health and he is on pace to 335 00:15:44,120 --> 00:15:46,800 Speaker 1: pass Santanamas next year is the number for a receiver 336 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 1: all time. 337 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:48,600 Speaker 3: In franchise history. 338 00:15:48,680 --> 00:15:50,600 Speaker 1: He'd have to play a long time to catch Art 339 00:15:50,640 --> 00:15:53,960 Speaker 1: Monk because not unlike Bobby Wagner, Art Monk played forever 340 00:15:54,280 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 1: and was their number one target and has crazy at 341 00:15:57,440 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 1: one point in time was the leading receiver in NFL 342 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:02,960 Speaker 1: his before Jerry Rice came along and ended up passing him. 343 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:06,720 Speaker 1: But Terry McLaurin is going up the leader board of 344 00:16:06,760 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 1: Hall of famers now in franchise history, and assuming health 345 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,640 Speaker 1: next year, he's going to pass Santana for number four 346 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 1: all time. 347 00:16:13,480 --> 00:16:14,480 Speaker 5: It should be incredible. 348 00:16:14,520 --> 00:16:16,520 Speaker 4: I mean it's cool to like, you know, like work 349 00:16:16,520 --> 00:16:18,600 Speaker 4: with Santana, know how good he was played with Santana, 350 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: but also just see a guy that you've kind of 351 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,440 Speaker 4: been able to follow his whole career and like came 352 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,560 Speaker 4: in as a third round pick and wasn't super refined. 353 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 4: It just gotten better and better, and you know, it's 354 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: like we're getting ready to do our draft stuff on 355 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,240 Speaker 4: ticket of the draft, and it's just such a good 356 00:16:32,280 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 4: reminder like towent is important, but finding guys that are 357 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:38,640 Speaker 4: self starters is maybe the most important thing you're looking 358 00:16:38,680 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 4: for in the draft, Like Bobby Wagoner self starter, Terry McClure, 359 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 4: self starter, London Fletcher undrafted, you know, free agent, self starter, 360 00:16:46,600 --> 00:16:48,400 Speaker 4: like motivated to be the best, And I think that 361 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 4: those things I thinks you're always looking for so. 362 00:16:51,480 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 3: The whole undrafted thing with me, I should have went. 363 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,560 Speaker 2: To Ohio State, like, like I had an opportunity. 364 00:16:57,280 --> 00:16:58,600 Speaker 5: To what are you talking about? 365 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 3: Because you wanted to be a point guard. That's the problem. 366 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:01,360 Speaker 5: I'll play basketball. 367 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, if I went to Ohio State, I would have 368 00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 2: got drafted definitely. 369 00:17:06,200 --> 00:17:09,040 Speaker 5: You know what would you have played at Ohio State? Safety? 370 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 3: H ice? Safety? 371 00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 5: That's crazy. 372 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: Let me ask you, just you do a million. You're 373 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: gonna start this process really soon here right, I. 374 00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:18,440 Speaker 3: Just had to that Ohio's day. And here's the part 375 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:18,879 Speaker 3: of this. 376 00:17:18,880 --> 00:17:21,439 Speaker 1: This is always hard for everybody like myself who have 377 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,639 Speaker 1: no access to the players, of the coaches or anything 378 00:17:23,720 --> 00:17:26,479 Speaker 1: like that. How do you know who the self starter is? 379 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,239 Speaker 1: Like we can watch everybody on tape. How do you 380 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:29,960 Speaker 1: know that they have that? 381 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 5: I think there's a couple of things that you look for. 382 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: Like I'm doing receivers right now, and I just watched 383 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,240 Speaker 4: this kid and I'll leave the school out because he's 384 00:17:36,680 --> 00:17:39,560 Speaker 4: this evaluation is not very friendly to him. But with 385 00:17:39,640 --> 00:17:42,320 Speaker 4: the ball in his hands, tremendous runs, good routes, physical 386 00:17:42,359 --> 00:17:45,440 Speaker 4: at to catch point, like competitive, pound your chest and 387 00:17:45,560 --> 00:17:47,760 Speaker 4: that's awesome, but that's only a very that's a six 388 00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:48,480 Speaker 4: repsiting game. 389 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:48,840 Speaker 5: Right. 390 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:50,879 Speaker 4: To me, It's like with receivers, it's like, how do 391 00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 4: you block? Like and there's a kid from Alabama who 392 00:17:54,280 --> 00:17:56,640 Speaker 4: is maybe not the most talented guy, but he will 393 00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 4: throw his face on you. 394 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 5: He'll make tough contested catches. 395 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 4: So in terms of like, like one guy's obviously more talented, 396 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,440 Speaker 4: this other guy loves football more. Right, he's isolating on linebackers, 397 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 4: he's digging corners out, he's crack blocking safeties, he's making 398 00:18:09,560 --> 00:18:11,440 Speaker 4: these tough contests catches over the middle of the field. 399 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:14,359 Speaker 4: And so in terms of finding the passion and seeing 400 00:18:14,400 --> 00:18:16,960 Speaker 4: it on a down to down basis, it's the things 401 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:18,920 Speaker 4: at the position that people don't want to do. You 402 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:21,120 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, Offensive lineman in a two minute drill, 403 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 4: how conditioned are you right? 404 00:18:23,000 --> 00:18:23,080 Speaker 3: Like? 405 00:18:23,119 --> 00:18:25,119 Speaker 4: Are you finishing the plays? Are you driving guys in 406 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 4: the dirt? 407 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:25,719 Speaker 2: Like? 408 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 4: It's that extra little bit that kind of takes you 409 00:18:28,720 --> 00:18:30,160 Speaker 4: and says that guy's got something special. 410 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 3: Here's another just to add to that. When you. 411 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 2: Evaluate guys when things are going well in a game, 412 00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 2: like you're it's a blowout, the season's not great, How 413 00:18:43,720 --> 00:18:47,600 Speaker 2: does that guy play late in the ball game? Is 414 00:18:47,600 --> 00:18:49,880 Speaker 2: he still continue to give a maximum effort like. 415 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 3: At Josh Johnson Terry McLaurin yesterday. 416 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, so as he continued to give maximum effort. You 417 00:18:55,800 --> 00:18:57,960 Speaker 2: don't talk to their coaches and hopefully the coaches are 418 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 2: honest with you and telling you how this guy is 419 00:19:02,119 --> 00:19:05,679 Speaker 2: and the end the building with his teammates. Is he 420 00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,359 Speaker 2: on time? How's he on a practice field? You can't 421 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:12,560 Speaker 2: fake those types of things. And when you really dig 422 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 2: into that field, it's a fourth quarter of a game. 423 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:19,359 Speaker 2: Say you're a defensive player, you're down by twenty five 424 00:19:19,480 --> 00:19:22,399 Speaker 2: with three minutes to go. Is he still playing with 425 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,520 Speaker 2: the same type of effort he did when it was 426 00:19:24,520 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 2: a start in the football game? 427 00:19:25,720 --> 00:19:28,120 Speaker 4: Like there's that clip of Amina sat Brown against Baltimore 428 00:19:28,119 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 4: a couple of years ago. They've lost the game, games 429 00:19:30,600 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 4: over and they're running a couple of runs to kind 430 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 4: of run the clock out, and you would have think 431 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:35,720 Speaker 4: you would have thought it's the first play of the 432 00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,320 Speaker 4: first game of the season. The way a'm and Rod 433 00:19:37,400 --> 00:19:38,880 Speaker 4: is blocking people right. The other one I like, too, 434 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 4: is just body language, like Hey, you don't get the ball, 435 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:44,720 Speaker 4: You're wide open. Are you like doing one of these? 436 00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 4: Are you are your offensive lineman, you're trying to run 437 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,040 Speaker 4: a guy pass the quarterback steps back, do you help 438 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:51,119 Speaker 4: the quarterback up? Or you kind of look off to 439 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:53,200 Speaker 4: the sideline Like there are things you can look at 440 00:19:53,440 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 4: and extrapolate off of. But I think, yeah, like when 441 00:19:55,920 --> 00:19:57,639 Speaker 4: the game's out of reach, how do you look? How 442 00:19:57,680 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 4: do you do the things that people at the position 443 00:19:59,280 --> 00:20:01,880 Speaker 4: don't really tip a reward? And that'll kind of inform 444 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:03,159 Speaker 4: a lot of this stuff because if you look, I mean, 445 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:05,920 Speaker 4: Terry's a great example, right he killed it on special teams. 446 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 5: He was a devastating blocker at Ohio State. 447 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 4: It shows a passion and a want to and then 448 00:20:09,920 --> 00:20:12,000 Speaker 4: you match that with the physical skill set and you 449 00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,359 Speaker 4: get this really nice prospect coming to the NFL. 450 00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 1: We'll end the show on the futures. We do have 451 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: the seventh overall pick. We'll talk a little bit about that. 452 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: We'll talk about the schedule because we know we don't 453 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:21,880 Speaker 1: know the schedule, but we know the opponents, So we'll 454 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:23,200 Speaker 1: talk about that in a minute. But let's stay on 455 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:26,360 Speaker 1: the season here. And there's a couple of things. One 456 00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:28,960 Speaker 1: that was somewhat pretty much out of their control, bad 457 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:31,719 Speaker 1: luck with injuries. The other one is within their control 458 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,560 Speaker 1: turnover margin. They talk about this over and over and over. Yes, 459 00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: these are two truisms of the NFL. If you turn 460 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,320 Speaker 1: the ball over more than you get the ball, you 461 00:20:39,400 --> 00:20:41,959 Speaker 1: lose a lot. And if you don't have health, you 462 00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:43,919 Speaker 1: lose a lot. And some of this is out of 463 00:20:43,920 --> 00:20:45,720 Speaker 1: your control. So I want to start with the injuries. 464 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,360 Speaker 1: Thirty one players for combined one hundred and fifty eight 465 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:51,480 Speaker 1: miss games, most in the NFL. Look at what happened 466 00:20:51,480 --> 00:20:54,199 Speaker 1: to their record, Philadelphia, And I'm not saying that this 467 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:56,000 Speaker 1: is the only thing. It's a difference between the two 468 00:20:56,440 --> 00:20:59,840 Speaker 1: fewest man games lost of Week one starters of anybody 469 00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:02,560 Speaker 1: in the NFL. Look what happened. They won the division 470 00:21:02,760 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: and they're back in the playoffs again. So how much 471 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,840 Speaker 1: do you attribute injuries to the record this season? 472 00:21:08,119 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 2: You have to attribute a lot of it. It's not 473 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: the only thing, but it was a big part of it. 474 00:21:13,040 --> 00:21:16,240 Speaker 2: I don't know what our miss games uh was and 475 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:19,760 Speaker 2: how many players a season ago did that? Did those 476 00:21:19,800 --> 00:21:21,000 Speaker 2: numbers far less? 477 00:21:21,240 --> 00:21:26,160 Speaker 3: Far less? The main one starter, when these. 478 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:29,479 Speaker 2: Guys are front line players, and yeah, on some teams 479 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 2: you can have a guy. Maybe sometimes the backup could 480 00:21:32,960 --> 00:21:35,360 Speaker 2: potentially be better than the starter, just need a little 481 00:21:35,359 --> 00:21:38,600 Speaker 2: bit more seasoning, or he's not just ready to make 482 00:21:38,640 --> 00:21:41,200 Speaker 2: that uh, that jump could be a drastic difference. There 483 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,840 Speaker 2: were instances where we're down to you know, third fourth 484 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,440 Speaker 2: guys at certain positions, and we had at one point 485 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:52,920 Speaker 2: the wide receiver group was injury riddle. There were well 486 00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:56,199 Speaker 2: three or four games, No Terry Deebo was banged up, 487 00:21:56,320 --> 00:22:01,199 Speaker 2: No Noah Brown, Trey Burt, Trey Burks was still on 488 00:22:01,280 --> 00:22:03,080 Speaker 2: a practice squad I think at that point in time. 489 00:22:03,600 --> 00:22:09,439 Speaker 2: Then the defensive end position. Three defensive ends all injury 490 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:12,040 Speaker 2: for the season. So it's met played a big part, 491 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 2: but it's not the only reason. But you cannot overlook that. 492 00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:17,879 Speaker 4: I mean, it's not an accident that the healthier teams 493 00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,359 Speaker 4: ended up making it to the super Bowl usually, right, 494 00:22:20,400 --> 00:22:22,159 Speaker 4: it's very rare that banged up team makes it. And 495 00:22:22,200 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 4: a little bit is it's just talent, Right, It's really 496 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,840 Speaker 4: hard to find eleven good starting caliber players on offense 497 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:29,720 Speaker 4: and defense, and so there is a as much as 498 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:31,719 Speaker 4: people don't want to admit it, there is a drop off, right, 499 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 4: Like I always think about, like when I was here, 500 00:22:33,200 --> 00:22:34,800 Speaker 4: with Jordan Reid. Like Jordan Reid one of the best 501 00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 4: receiving Titans in the NFL. When he was nicked up, 502 00:22:36,920 --> 00:22:39,600 Speaker 4: our offense when Logan Paulson was in was not as good. 503 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,080 Speaker 4: Like was that because of lack of trying, No, Like 504 00:22:42,119 --> 00:22:44,080 Speaker 4: I really wanted to be good, but he just had 505 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:46,640 Speaker 4: a physical skill set that was different, and it hurt 506 00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,640 Speaker 4: us when he wasn't in right, and so like as 507 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 4: much as it and like when London Fletcher gets hurt, 508 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,560 Speaker 4: like as good as his backup is, there's going to 509 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,359 Speaker 4: be a difference. And so I think that that's something 510 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:56,760 Speaker 4: that needs to be acknowledged. And again there are things 511 00:22:56,760 --> 00:22:58,639 Speaker 4: you can do to manage that and mitigate that. 512 00:22:58,880 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 2: But so a critical Albus thirty three, third fourth not 513 00:23:02,880 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 2: they weren't calling those watchers Logan for. 514 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 4: Out of that right, And so again when that's like 515 00:23:07,320 --> 00:23:09,000 Speaker 4: that's your third downplay and you don't have him in 516 00:23:09,040 --> 00:23:12,480 Speaker 4: the game, Jordan Reid, I'm talking about, like that is impactful, 517 00:23:12,560 --> 00:23:14,560 Speaker 4: right when you don't have Terry McLaurin and a guy. 518 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 5: Like think about when he played this year. 519 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,240 Speaker 4: I think about the Kansas City game, like how dominant 520 00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:20,160 Speaker 4: he was coming off of not playing for a couple 521 00:23:20,200 --> 00:23:23,399 Speaker 4: of weeks. Right the Giants game, he's dominant, explosive plays 522 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 4: like all of those things that kind of accented the 523 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 4: season last year. From a receiving standpoint, they're not there 524 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,920 Speaker 4: when he's on the field. And that's not because people 525 00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,880 Speaker 4: behind him aren't good. It's just there's a difference. It's 526 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:34,280 Speaker 4: a difference. 527 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,879 Speaker 2: There's different And you'll hear a lot of people say, well, 528 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:39,480 Speaker 2: the San Francisco forty nine, if they had a lot 529 00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,560 Speaker 2: of injuries this year, they did, they still won twelve 530 00:23:42,600 --> 00:23:45,760 Speaker 2: ball games. I'm not sure if you. 531 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: Were at passed by Christian McCaffrey away from making it 532 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,240 Speaker 1: real interesting to be the one seed. 533 00:23:50,359 --> 00:23:54,960 Speaker 2: But you know, they've also been building that roster. Kyle 534 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:58,600 Speaker 2: has been there what since seventeen twenty seven team, so 535 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,080 Speaker 2: he's talking they've built this rosted up. They've had multiple 536 00:24:02,119 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 2: draft picks and things like that. So and it depends 537 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:08,880 Speaker 2: on have you been ravashed at the same position. 538 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,439 Speaker 4: I think that's when you're talking about San Francisco, like 539 00:24:12,480 --> 00:24:14,800 Speaker 4: they've kind of taken turns, like Ricky piersoll is hurt, 540 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 4: but Christian McCaffrey's healthy. Christian McCaffrey's out, George Kittle and 541 00:24:18,560 --> 00:24:19,560 Speaker 4: Ricky Pierson are healthy. 542 00:24:19,600 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 5: Like they kind of took turns offensively, and that's an offensive. 543 00:24:22,760 --> 00:24:24,760 Speaker 3: Y'all's play really good and when party was out. 544 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:26,240 Speaker 5: And that's an offensive driven football team. 545 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:29,440 Speaker 1: And through the years they've gone through rashes of injuries 546 00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,879 Speaker 1: for whatever reason. For years ago, it used to be 547 00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:33,439 Speaker 1: the running backs. Remember they would get down to a 548 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 1: fourth fifth running back. They would end up in the game. 549 00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:37,479 Speaker 1: So it wasn't McCaffrey who was running the ball. They 550 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:39,600 Speaker 1: were still able to at least remain competitive. 551 00:24:39,760 --> 00:24:41,560 Speaker 4: And again, like like Fletch's talking about though, like the 552 00:24:41,640 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 4: running back is one of those positions in my opinion, 553 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:47,080 Speaker 4: where like because it's like one guy's playing, you can 554 00:24:47,080 --> 00:24:49,360 Speaker 4: get pretty deep, pretty quick and still be okay, still 555 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 4: be functional receiver. For example, two guys are out and 556 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:54,040 Speaker 4: all of a sudden you're in you're in a land 557 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,760 Speaker 4: where two guys are on the field that don't play 558 00:24:55,800 --> 00:24:57,960 Speaker 4: a lot of football, yeah, and don't have a skill set. 559 00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 4: Same thing with defensive line too, Like you're two starting 560 00:25:00,800 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 4: three starting defensive ends are out. It's really it gets 561 00:25:04,880 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 4: really thin at the bottom of that tight ends. Kind 562 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:09,520 Speaker 4: of funny too, because you usually have a blocking wayan 563 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:11,560 Speaker 4: a pass catching guy, and so you can get away 564 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 4: like if you're not gonna feel that as dramatically, but gosh, 565 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:15,320 Speaker 4: receiver in D line. 566 00:25:15,440 --> 00:25:19,040 Speaker 2: Just sticking sticking with them With San Francisco, the one 567 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:23,399 Speaker 2: big difference for them this season has been Christian McCaffrey 568 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:27,600 Speaker 2: has been healthy, and so with him, he's two players 569 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 2: in that offense. You have to run an element and 570 00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,320 Speaker 2: then you have the pass catcher receiving element. There are 571 00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:37,320 Speaker 2: times he was averaging thirty touches a game. That's that's 572 00:25:37,359 --> 00:25:40,040 Speaker 2: what type of impact he has on a football field. 573 00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: So it would be it was literally drives where I 574 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:45,560 Speaker 2: think I was watching one game, but Caffrey may have 575 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:47,920 Speaker 2: gotten the ball seven straight times and start to gain. 576 00:25:49,280 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 3: You can. 577 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,320 Speaker 4: He's that kind of player. You can spam touches to him. Yes, 578 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 4: And I don't know if we have anybody. That's the 579 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 4: thing is like they have players that are like George 580 00:25:57,520 --> 00:25:59,440 Speaker 4: Kittle is a top three player at the position. Christian 581 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:01,919 Speaker 4: McCaffrey's top three player at the position, like when you 582 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,240 Speaker 4: have Trent Williams top three. 583 00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 3: Trip was healthy. 584 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:06,439 Speaker 2: He only missed a one game the other day and 585 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:08,240 Speaker 2: that was his first minute game of the season with 586 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: the hamstrings, and. 587 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,880 Speaker 4: So again, like and people undervalue like having that level 588 00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,960 Speaker 4: of dominance at the position, Like you're always looking for 589 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 4: blue chippers. And that's one thing that maybe we can 590 00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 4: talk about in terms of roster construction here is like, 591 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:21,600 Speaker 4: there are some really good players, but how many true 592 00:26:21,680 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 4: blue chippers do you have in this offense? And then 593 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,520 Speaker 4: it makes injuries more challenging to overcome because you don't 594 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:27,560 Speaker 4: have a bunch of studs you can turn. 595 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: By the middle of the year, with all the injuries, 596 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: all the changes that were occurring with Jaden, the flipping 597 00:26:31,960 --> 00:26:33,760 Speaker 1: around of the offensive line, all the receivers that were 598 00:26:33,760 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: in and out, this team changed the way it played. 599 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:38,600 Speaker 1: They went to more jumbo packages, they were using the 600 00:26:38,600 --> 00:26:40,840 Speaker 1: extra alignment, I think a lot more than Cliff Kingsbury 601 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: ever anticipated. I don't think this team played the way 602 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:46,160 Speaker 1: that they expected to when they put the roster together 603 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:48,479 Speaker 1: on that side of the ball. Do mainly to injuries 604 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 1: throughout the course of the year. So as you kind 605 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,879 Speaker 1: of watched them and thought about them and saw defenses 606 00:26:53,280 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 1: adjust to them in the middle of the year, due 607 00:26:55,240 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: to the injuries, it kind of limited their output as well. 608 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:01,320 Speaker 2: Did you when you think about the game that comes 609 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 2: to mind, or a couple of games coming to mind 610 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:07,840 Speaker 2: was the Chicago Bears. That Chicago and Dallas. Those were 611 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 2: back to back games where the Bears came into that 612 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 2: game a high volume of zone coverage, just not not 613 00:27:16,400 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 2: blitz a lot. And then we played them, they were 614 00:27:19,880 --> 00:27:21,879 Speaker 2: blitzing like crazy, playing a ton of man and man 615 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:25,399 Speaker 2: and they were they felt comfortable doing that because again 616 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,919 Speaker 2: no offense to any of those other guys, but we 617 00:27:28,960 --> 00:27:32,159 Speaker 2: didn't have a Terry, no Noah Brown. 618 00:27:32,720 --> 00:27:37,439 Speaker 3: Just the receiving corps was banged up. It was just 619 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 3: a totally. 620 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:41,640 Speaker 2: Different environment at the receiving corp and these guys are like, hey, 621 00:27:41,920 --> 00:27:45,960 Speaker 2: we don't take our chances by blitzing playing man coverage. 622 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:49,359 Speaker 2: Then the next week against the Cowboys, we had Debo 623 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 2: didn't even play that game because he had to heal injury. 624 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,840 Speaker 2: We was a very tight end centric offense. 625 00:27:54,920 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 3: That yeah, it was exact who who led us in 626 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 3: chosen did he leave us? I think that Robbie and 627 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,320 Speaker 3: zach rs. 628 00:28:07,400 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 2: I mean it was just like, you're limited on what 629 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:13,520 Speaker 2: you can do from our offense standpoint. Defenses took advantage 630 00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 2: of that. 631 00:28:13,960 --> 00:28:17,119 Speaker 1: Yep on let's stay on the injury. Final'll get to 632 00:28:17,119 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: the turnovers in a minute. Jane Daniels his season is 633 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:25,800 Speaker 1: marred by injuries, three different ones and in reaggravation. Last 634 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 1: four games he played wasn't able to finish, so he 635 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 1: ended up playing in seven games. Twelve hundred and sixty 636 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: two yards, eight touchdowns, three picks, two seventy eight on 637 00:28:33,040 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: the ground, two rushing touchdowns. I think trying to have 638 00:28:37,920 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: an idea of where he is through year two is 639 00:28:40,520 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: totally incomplete because he just did not play enough and 640 00:28:45,640 --> 00:28:48,400 Speaker 1: weeks in a row to I think judge it, but 641 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:50,080 Speaker 1: I don't know if you guys feel differently about it. 642 00:28:50,200 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 2: No I totally feel that way because the first of all, 643 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 2: the office of unit that projected day one start as 644 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 2: week one starters have any practice time together. 645 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:06,680 Speaker 3: The whole entire offseason, the whole year. Yeah, So I 646 00:29:06,720 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 3: mean they played. 647 00:29:07,400 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: From day one and training camp, the group that they 648 00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:11,960 Speaker 1: thought would be the starting unit never practiced together. 649 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:13,160 Speaker 3: Have practice to gather you get. 650 00:29:13,280 --> 00:29:16,640 Speaker 2: They played together in Week one against the Giants and 651 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 2: then Noah got injured in Week two against the YEP against. 652 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 3: The Eckler got injured Early got injured. 653 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,640 Speaker 2: So it's just this thing where they never were able 654 00:29:27,680 --> 00:29:31,120 Speaker 2: to get a true chemistry and a rhythm throughout the 655 00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,680 Speaker 2: court of the season. With Jaden, he never was able 656 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:36,920 Speaker 2: to get a rhythm in a in a consistency and 657 00:29:37,040 --> 00:29:40,680 Speaker 2: comfortable with his receiving core. So it's it's totally incomplete. 658 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:45,480 Speaker 2: You can't say it's it was a learning thing for him, 659 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 2: but in terms of just hey, I'm going through this, 660 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:49,880 Speaker 2: this adversity I got to deal with. 661 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:51,479 Speaker 3: But it's definitely in complete. 662 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 5: It's definitely incomplete. But I do think there are a 663 00:29:53,560 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 5: couple of things you can take away, right. 664 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:56,239 Speaker 4: I think when you look at like the Chargers game, 665 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 4: I think when you look at the Giants game, like, 666 00:29:58,120 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 4: I think you see versions of the guy we saw 667 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,800 Speaker 4: last year, and like those games you look like an 668 00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 4: absolute stud. And I think you look at the games 669 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:09,640 Speaker 4: that he struggled, you know, Green Bay, Minnesota, the Cowboys game, right, like, 670 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:10,960 Speaker 4: what are the reasons he struggled with it? 671 00:30:11,080 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 2: Right? 672 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 4: In those games, it's because of the pressure, because of 673 00:30:13,400 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 4: the lack of separation on the perimeter. And I think 674 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:18,960 Speaker 4: if you're if I'm Adam Peters, if I'm someone in 675 00:30:18,960 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 4: the front office, I say, like, let's not ignore those things. 676 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 4: Let's not ignore those struggles. Let's how can we Jaden 677 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:28,240 Speaker 4: has to take personal accountability and ownership of those moments. 678 00:30:28,280 --> 00:30:31,200 Speaker 4: But also like, can we continue to build this roster 679 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 4: so that we can avoid those same scenarios moving forward, 680 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:38,000 Speaker 4: right protection plans, personnel decisions on the perimeter and in 681 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:40,720 Speaker 4: the offensive front so that we can maximize his skill set. 682 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,360 Speaker 4: So again, like I do think the evaluation is incomplete, 683 00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 4: but I do think there's data you can glean from 684 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:46,479 Speaker 4: this to kind of say, this is what we can 685 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 4: be moving forward to help maximize this and help avoid 686 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:52,600 Speaker 4: this type of scenario in twenty twenty six. 687 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:55,720 Speaker 2: I know he's going to be so motivated this offseason man, 688 00:30:56,320 --> 00:30:59,640 Speaker 2: just to attack the work and get ready for next season. 689 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:03,720 Speaker 1: They clearly want him when he extends plays to throw 690 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:06,280 Speaker 1: the ball more than he has, probably partially out of 691 00:31:06,840 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 1: let's limit the amount of hits that he's going to take. Secondarily, like, 692 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,160 Speaker 1: one of the things that really stood out about him 693 00:31:12,160 --> 00:31:14,400 Speaker 1: coming out of college was he really know his legs 694 00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,360 Speaker 1: are obviously a humongous weapon, but he's a past first quarterback. 695 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: When he came in to the NFL, as you kind 696 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:21,959 Speaker 1: of see what the maturation of his career is how 697 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,240 Speaker 1: do you work on those things so that he incorporates 698 00:31:25,280 --> 00:31:27,200 Speaker 1: more of it into his game moving forward? 699 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 4: Well, fus Conna test to this too, Like you know 700 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,560 Speaker 4: when a coach gives you feedback, like they're going to 701 00:31:31,600 --> 00:31:35,040 Speaker 4: tell you something, it's your responsibility to improve it, right, 702 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:37,480 Speaker 4: So I think like that's the one thing about Jaden 703 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:41,040 Speaker 4: that I talk about his legs, his composure, his passing. 704 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:43,840 Speaker 4: He is a worker and so that you talk about 705 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 4: things that give you confidence of players going to improve 706 00:31:46,560 --> 00:31:48,080 Speaker 4: is like I say, hey, we want you to improve 707 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,360 Speaker 4: in this area. Like he's going to go this offseason 708 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 4: and work on that stuff. And that's the only way 709 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:56,320 Speaker 4: I know how to change it. That's everyone. There's no 710 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 4: magic like, oh, you're gonna go see this coach and 711 00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 4: he's going to magically make you. 712 00:32:00,040 --> 00:32:01,760 Speaker 5: Got to rep it, watch it. 713 00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:04,120 Speaker 2: You have to do the work, man, that's the only 714 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,360 Speaker 2: way you you you get it down, nailed down. And 715 00:32:07,560 --> 00:32:10,960 Speaker 2: here's the kicker, you have to continue to do it, 716 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 2: like you always have to continue to work on these things. 717 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,800 Speaker 2: It's uh, it's not all right, I've arrived. I mean 718 00:32:18,880 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 2: it's painstaking attention to detail. When I say there's a 719 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:26,960 Speaker 2: reason why people aren't willing or able to do this 720 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,920 Speaker 2: stuff year and the year and year out because it 721 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 2: has to be done day in and day out, and 722 00:32:33,560 --> 00:32:37,120 Speaker 2: it is hard. And if there was a short cut, 723 00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:40,080 Speaker 2: most people would do it. But the shortcut is not 724 00:32:40,240 --> 00:32:44,760 Speaker 2: the answer. Yeah, there is no There is no quick 725 00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:47,720 Speaker 2: shot you can take to be an elite quarterback. You 726 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,640 Speaker 2: can't go get some a zippic and b be this 727 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:56,120 Speaker 2: this Hall of Fame quarter You know I was talking 728 00:32:56,160 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 2: to friends earlier to day, uh free free Yeah. Yeah, 729 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:03,040 Speaker 2: so but just you know, people want to they won't 730 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 2: quick they want to write. Now there's a w no 731 00:33:04,960 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 2: microwave answer. You got to put in the work man. 732 00:33:07,840 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 4: So and Jade is a worker, like the thing like 733 00:33:10,120 --> 00:33:12,120 Speaker 4: I like, so I do these like I go to 734 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,640 Speaker 4: like tight ends and I mentor them for the draft. Right, 735 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 4: And so I told this story all the time, Like 736 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,360 Speaker 4: there was a coach Shanahan and he was like, logan, 737 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:20,920 Speaker 4: if you don't get your second step down in the 738 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:22,800 Speaker 4: run gammon outside zone, like, you won't play. 739 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:24,880 Speaker 5: So I said, well, I'm gonna work on it. 740 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,680 Speaker 4: And so I'd go watch TV and I'd have a 741 00:33:26,720 --> 00:33:29,200 Speaker 4: little setup and I'd do it every night, fifteen twenty minutes, 742 00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,360 Speaker 4: and then all of a sudden it was like, like 743 00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:33,280 Speaker 4: I want to say, it was like probably six weeks 744 00:33:33,360 --> 00:33:35,440 Speaker 4: later and coaches like, man, like, how did you get 745 00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 4: your second step down? 746 00:33:36,320 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 5: That's great? It was like it wasn't like that one time. 747 00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 4: It's six weeks, seven weeks of obsessing about it, and 748 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:44,640 Speaker 4: then they'd give you a new detail and you say, 749 00:33:44,640 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 4: I got to get better at this, and like that 750 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 4: is the thing like to young players And this is 751 00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 4: why Jane is such a fun guy to think about 752 00:33:52,520 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 4: and in terms of moving forward, is you give that 753 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,480 Speaker 4: to a lot of young players and they'll do it 754 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:59,800 Speaker 4: for ten days, They'll do it when it's convenient for them. 755 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:05,440 Speaker 4: Jaden I think understands the importance of taking that feedback 756 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 4: and obsessing over it. And that obsession is the thing 757 00:34:08,680 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 4: that makes a Bobby Wagner, that makes a London Fletcher, 758 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,719 Speaker 4: that makes a Brian Mitchell. Like that's the thing that 759 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:15,319 Speaker 4: makes him great. And that's the thing that I get 760 00:34:15,360 --> 00:34:17,520 Speaker 4: really excited about with him, is that I think he 761 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:19,480 Speaker 4: gets that at the most profound life. 762 00:34:19,520 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 1: I mean, there are two MVPs that didn't make the 763 00:34:21,600 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 1: playoffs this year Lamar Jackson, whose team lost last night 764 00:34:25,719 --> 00:34:29,040 Speaker 1: at the Buzzer, and Pat Mahomes, who their season went 765 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:30,560 Speaker 1: sideways before he got injured. 766 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:30,839 Speaker 5: Yeah. 767 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 3: So it's a testament too. 768 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:34,640 Speaker 1: I don't care how great you are, year after year 769 00:34:34,680 --> 00:34:36,399 Speaker 1: after year, You've got to get better. 770 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:40,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm talking about a year after year there's no 771 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:44,320 Speaker 2: here's what I look at too, and having so the 772 00:34:44,400 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 2: year we won a Super Bowl in Saint Louis, we're 773 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:49,320 Speaker 2: the young second I think second youngest team in a 774 00:34:49,400 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 2: National Football League man greatest sng tern. We went thirteen 775 00:34:53,480 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 2: to three that year, could have easily went fourteen and two. 776 00:34:57,280 --> 00:35:00,640 Speaker 2: Actually we were a fourth and twenty six from going 777 00:35:01,640 --> 00:35:04,960 Speaker 2: fifteen and one. We gave up a big play on defense. 778 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:08,759 Speaker 2: They end up against the Detroit Lions. They ended up winning, 779 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 2: winning that game. 780 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:10,320 Speaker 3: Game was over. 781 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:16,719 Speaker 2: Win the super Bowl the next that off season, I 782 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:20,680 Speaker 2: can honestly say I don't think we attacked it the 783 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,879 Speaker 2: way we needed to. We did not have the right 784 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 2: work ethic, like realizing that okay, we got a bulls 785 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:30,080 Speaker 2: eye on our back. First and foremost, because we were young, 786 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,360 Speaker 2: we think, oh man, this is gonna be easy. Didn't 787 00:35:33,360 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 2: attack it the right way, did not come and realize 788 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 2: last year's effort is not gonna be good enough this year, 789 00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:44,239 Speaker 2: and we had to win the last game of the 790 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,040 Speaker 2: season to make the playoffs. 791 00:35:46,360 --> 00:35:47,480 Speaker 3: Pretty much same roster. 792 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 2: We squeaked into the playoffs, and we needed somebody else 793 00:35:51,040 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 2: to miss a field goal for us to make it. 794 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 2: When get into the playoffs, end up losing the first round. 795 00:35:56,400 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 2: But that's what I'm saying. You have to put that 796 00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:02,200 Speaker 2: work in over and over again, and yesterday's work is 797 00:36:02,280 --> 00:36:04,480 Speaker 2: not going to be good enough today. We got to 798 00:36:04,560 --> 00:36:06,120 Speaker 2: keep building building to build it. 799 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: Let's talk about one of the other humongous storylines of 800 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:10,799 Speaker 1: the year, which was they talk about balls life here 801 00:36:11,120 --> 00:36:13,240 Speaker 1: the turnover margin went the wrong way. It was minus 802 00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: thirteen on the season, second worst in the league. The 803 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: biggest issue, I think was they couldn't create takeaways. They 804 00:36:21,120 --> 00:36:24,080 Speaker 1: got their tenth yesterday, which was the second fewest in 805 00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:27,960 Speaker 1: the NFL. So let me start there, Like defensively, they 806 00:36:28,080 --> 00:36:30,080 Speaker 1: just could not get the ball this year. They couldn't 807 00:36:30,080 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 1: procure it. 808 00:36:30,719 --> 00:36:33,080 Speaker 4: And so I think, and I want to kind of 809 00:36:33,120 --> 00:36:34,400 Speaker 4: like I'm going to make a statement, then you can 810 00:36:34,440 --> 00:36:36,400 Speaker 4: comment on this, because like I think this is really interesting. 811 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:38,760 Speaker 4: So I went back and watched Dallas when Michael Parsons 812 00:36:38,840 --> 00:36:40,799 Speaker 4: was there, and they had all those turnovers, and one 813 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:41,880 Speaker 4: of the things they were able to I don't want 814 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 4: to think is turnovers is like defensive back play. It's 815 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,960 Speaker 4: the pressure. They're able to create quick pressures with Misha 816 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:50,640 Speaker 4: and and you know what's the guy that's in Seattle 817 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 4: now is the other defensive end Number ninety there Marcus Lawd. 818 00:36:53,400 --> 00:36:54,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, DeMarcus Sorens. 819 00:36:54,280 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 4: Like those guys, uh Diggy Zoo Like those guys were 820 00:36:57,080 --> 00:37:00,239 Speaker 4: excellent at creating not only pressure but quick pressure. And 821 00:37:00,840 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 4: it forces the quarterback to get the ball out of 822 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 4: his hands before he wants to in the tight windows. 823 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 4: And the defensive backs, if they're playing with eyes on 824 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:10,359 Speaker 4: the ball and they're playing with that clock in their head, 825 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 4: got turnover. So I look at this year and I'm saying, like, 826 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 4: what's the biggest difference. And I look at the injuries 827 00:37:15,320 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 4: along the defensive line and the lack of just a 828 00:37:17,440 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 4: consistent pass rush and the amount of pressure puts on 829 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,120 Speaker 4: the back end and the ease with which a quarterback 830 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 4: can play the position. I say to myself like that 831 00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 4: to me, I don't know if it's the biggest difference. 832 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:29,680 Speaker 4: But that is to me the number one variable that 833 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 4: I think needs to be addressed moving forward in order 834 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:33,320 Speaker 4: for them to create turnovers. 835 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:38,040 Speaker 2: Hi, you look at probably the highest producing teams turnover teams. 836 00:37:38,520 --> 00:37:41,680 Speaker 2: They get pressure on the quarterback, so that leads to 837 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,400 Speaker 2: errant those at least to sacks force fumbles and you 838 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:50,000 Speaker 2: recover those. How many I don't know how many sacks 839 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:53,040 Speaker 2: and forced fumbles we had on the season. Those are 840 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:57,680 Speaker 2: opportunities to get the football tackle, tackling and having multiple 841 00:37:57,719 --> 00:38:00,680 Speaker 2: guys around round of football. We played a ton of 842 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:04,280 Speaker 2: man of man coverage, especially early, to try to alleviate 843 00:38:04,320 --> 00:38:07,280 Speaker 2: the lack of pressure. Like, okay, we can't we can't 844 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 2: get generate pressure, so we're gonna blitz a loutum Like 845 00:38:11,160 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 2: when when Joe Witt was called the defense a lot 846 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:17,040 Speaker 2: of that blisten. We were one of the highest blitzing 847 00:38:17,120 --> 00:38:19,680 Speaker 2: teams because he's like, hey, I gotta get pressure on 848 00:38:19,760 --> 00:38:22,279 Speaker 2: the quarterback. But the flip side of that, I got 849 00:38:22,400 --> 00:38:24,799 Speaker 2: to play man and man and it's tough to get 850 00:38:25,000 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: interceptions when you're in man coverage because you don't have 851 00:38:29,239 --> 00:38:32,719 Speaker 2: as much as many eyes on the quarterback and with 852 00:38:32,960 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 2: vision on the quarterback, quarterbacks. A lot of a lot 853 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:40,080 Speaker 2: of quarterbacks would love to go against man pressure because hey, 854 00:38:40,760 --> 00:38:42,640 Speaker 2: I got this guy, this receiver, I can go to 855 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:45,800 Speaker 2: him one on one before the pressure gets here, or 856 00:38:45,840 --> 00:38:48,399 Speaker 2: I got I got easier throws. But when you get 857 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:51,759 Speaker 2: I only have to rush four and I can drop 858 00:38:52,200 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 2: seven back and coverage and they got eyes on me 859 00:38:55,480 --> 00:38:57,200 Speaker 2: and the pressure might be getting there and I'm throwing 860 00:38:57,239 --> 00:39:00,200 Speaker 2: it off off a back foot. Think about the uh 861 00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 2: Josh Johnson's interceptions. A lot of times it's because of pressure. 862 00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 2: But yeah, so it's across the field. Yeah, it's the 863 00:39:06,600 --> 00:39:10,240 Speaker 2: same thing with yep, with other quarterbacks, and it starts. 864 00:39:10,360 --> 00:39:11,920 Speaker 2: It starts with that defensive front. You know. 865 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:13,560 Speaker 1: The other thing too, is I'm trying to do the 866 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 1: numbers of my head Samer still had four interceptions, Reeves 867 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 1: had a fifth yesterday, Marshawn had one, Bobby had two, 868 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:21,480 Speaker 1: Bobby had to take okay, and they had a They 869 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:24,359 Speaker 1: procured a fumble at a kickoff against Philadelphia, right, which 870 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 1: that means they only got one or two fumbles. 871 00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,960 Speaker 3: They all fall just bounces the wrong way. 872 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,359 Speaker 1: Sure, yeah, and that happened like in the Atlanta game. 873 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,920 Speaker 1: Remember Bijon fumble. But it fell right to Penix right. 874 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:37,960 Speaker 1: There was a couple of others where they just happened 875 00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,799 Speaker 1: to go back and the ball didn't bounce their way. 876 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 1: But the point there is they were not getting the 877 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:46,759 Speaker 1: ball out enough. Forced fumbles and recovered fumbles were very, 878 00:39:47,080 --> 00:39:48,200 Speaker 1: very low this year. 879 00:39:48,680 --> 00:39:51,320 Speaker 2: Again, when you're playing a lot of man and man coverage, 880 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:53,719 Speaker 2: there's going to be a lot of one on one 881 00:39:53,800 --> 00:39:59,200 Speaker 2: tackles too. So how many times are you getting three, 882 00:39:59,400 --> 00:40:01,320 Speaker 2: four or five guys hat to the football. 883 00:40:01,880 --> 00:40:04,880 Speaker 3: Hey, we said we're securing the tackle, second man come. 884 00:40:04,760 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 2: In strip, try to knock the football out, and sometimes 885 00:40:08,800 --> 00:40:10,480 Speaker 2: just hey, putting that hat on that football at the 886 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:10,919 Speaker 2: right time. 887 00:40:11,560 --> 00:40:11,960 Speaker 3: It's uh. 888 00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:16,400 Speaker 2: I don't know who's the who's the leading leading the 889 00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:17,600 Speaker 2: league in turnovers right now? 890 00:40:17,880 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 4: Team? 891 00:40:18,600 --> 00:40:20,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, might be the Bears, might be the Jaguars. I 892 00:40:20,800 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 3: gotta lay Jaguars at the back. But I haven't watching 893 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:25,000 Speaker 3: Jags this year. 894 00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,520 Speaker 2: But matter of fact, I know they got a I 895 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,719 Speaker 2: think they got a linebacker who had five picks. 896 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:32,520 Speaker 3: Yes, and a safety yeah, three or four in the 897 00:40:32,600 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 3: first six weeks. 898 00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 2: Either pressure of a quarterback or they got vision the 899 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 2: way they play their defense. 900 00:40:39,840 --> 00:40:41,480 Speaker 5: And it's both. And this is one of those big 901 00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 5: brain things too. 902 00:40:42,360 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 4: Like I also think like you gotta again, you've got 903 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:47,600 Speaker 4: to get in past rushing situations, like so when you're 904 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:48,920 Speaker 4: in third night, how do you get to third and eight? 905 00:40:49,280 --> 00:40:51,120 Speaker 4: You're good on first second down, right, and so like 906 00:40:51,280 --> 00:40:53,640 Speaker 4: I know that with the addition of Dietrich Wise and 907 00:40:53,719 --> 00:40:56,120 Speaker 4: some of these bigger body defensive players, like that was 908 00:40:56,160 --> 00:40:58,239 Speaker 4: the big motivations. We're gonna be better on first down 909 00:40:58,560 --> 00:41:00,320 Speaker 4: when you get to more second along, we're going to 910 00:41:00,400 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 4: get to more third lungs, and we're going to rush 911 00:41:01,880 --> 00:41:02,280 Speaker 4: the passer. 912 00:41:02,360 --> 00:41:02,600 Speaker 3: And so. 913 00:41:04,480 --> 00:41:06,080 Speaker 4: Again that was an area that they struggled with this 914 00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 4: year as well too, in terms of like fitting runs 915 00:41:08,600 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 4: and being on the same page, getting communication locked in. 916 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:16,080 Speaker 4: So I think it's getting turnovers, is a is a product, 917 00:41:16,400 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 4: is a systematic defensive thing of just good defense. 918 00:41:19,520 --> 00:41:22,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you've heard me say this much. It's 919 00:41:22,680 --> 00:41:25,279 Speaker 2: hard to rush the passer on third and two thirty 920 00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:28,520 Speaker 2: three because that ball more than likely is going to 921 00:41:28,600 --> 00:41:29,400 Speaker 2: come out quickly. 922 00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:30,600 Speaker 3: They're gonna run. 923 00:41:30,760 --> 00:41:32,520 Speaker 5: Bears are plus twenty two. By the way, Bear's a 924 00:41:32,520 --> 00:41:33,160 Speaker 5: plus twenty two. 925 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:34,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's uh are they are? 926 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:35,919 Speaker 5: They leading to yep? 927 00:41:36,280 --> 00:41:40,040 Speaker 3: And in margin, in margin, Yeah, so they. 928 00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 2: Don't turn the ball over and they take it away. Yeah, 929 00:41:43,520 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 2: we had probably more we have last year. We didn't 930 00:41:45,640 --> 00:41:48,120 Speaker 2: turn the ball over at all. I think we were 931 00:41:48,120 --> 00:41:51,399 Speaker 2: single digit in a turnover margin if because Jay didn't 932 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:54,320 Speaker 2: didn't throw interceptions. I don't remember a bunch of fumbles 933 00:41:54,400 --> 00:41:57,239 Speaker 2: by us, So we protected and them and we didn't 934 00:41:57,239 --> 00:41:58,600 Speaker 2: take it away at a high clip. 935 00:41:58,480 --> 00:41:59,200 Speaker 5: Lest we didn't. 936 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:03,000 Speaker 3: But it was again, yeah, turned it over either. Yeah. 937 00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 3: All right, let's go through the rookie class here real quick. 938 00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 1: Josh Connerly got trial by fire, got thrown out there 939 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,760 Speaker 1: against essentially Hall of Fame level players. At the beginning 940 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,000 Speaker 1: of the season, there's a lot of questions about was 941 00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,480 Speaker 1: he ready for that moment? And then when I talked 942 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:18,920 Speaker 1: to dan Quid the other day, he said, go look 943 00:42:18,960 --> 00:42:20,720 Speaker 1: at the first Dallas game, Go look at the second 944 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,640 Speaker 1: Dallas game. You can really see the growth and his 945 00:42:23,840 --> 00:42:26,680 Speaker 1: numbers really really improved throughout the season. So what do 946 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:28,360 Speaker 1: you think of Connorly's rookie season. 947 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,319 Speaker 4: I mean, I think it's been tremendous, Like I think 948 00:42:31,360 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 4: he's going to be a cornerstone player, and it's like 949 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:35,719 Speaker 4: he's like when I walk up the sideline on the 950 00:42:35,800 --> 00:42:37,359 Speaker 4: game and I see him staying there. 951 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:38,800 Speaker 5: He's still such a baby. 952 00:42:39,000 --> 00:42:40,840 Speaker 3: A baby, that's exactly. Baby. 953 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,439 Speaker 5: He's got the baby face. Like he's thin. 954 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:46,160 Speaker 4: He's like he's gonna put on twenty pounds a muscle here, 955 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:48,440 Speaker 4: like when he kind of becomes an NFL offensive lineman 956 00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 4: and just be an absolute nail leader man, because he 957 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 4: can move. Like there's a bunch of plays in the 958 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,719 Speaker 4: Dallas game where he's out in space blocking guys. There's 959 00:42:55,760 --> 00:42:58,239 Speaker 4: a trap where he's able to capture this linebacker at 960 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:00,680 Speaker 4: the second level, and his pass has gotten a lot better. 961 00:43:00,719 --> 00:43:02,400 Speaker 4: And again like I think the strength has got to 962 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,960 Speaker 4: come a little bit and the anchor will come. It'll come, 963 00:43:05,040 --> 00:43:06,520 Speaker 4: And like I'm not saying it won't, but I'm saying, 964 00:43:06,560 --> 00:43:08,520 Speaker 4: like when you look at like what he was, I 965 00:43:08,880 --> 00:43:10,520 Speaker 4: remember looking at him like the first day of training 966 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:13,680 Speaker 4: camp being like do his timing's messed up, his footwork's 967 00:43:13,719 --> 00:43:15,759 Speaker 4: messed up. And then so to go from that to 968 00:43:15,880 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 4: the guy we watched against Philly to the guy who 969 00:43:17,560 --> 00:43:20,800 Speaker 4: watched against Dallas, Like, dude, I'm so excited for this 970 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 4: young man's offseason because of the almost linear growth and 971 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,280 Speaker 4: that linear growth for young players. That means they're taking ownership, 972 00:43:27,280 --> 00:43:29,040 Speaker 4: they're taking accountability. And we talked about it with the 973 00:43:29,120 --> 00:43:31,480 Speaker 4: draft stuff like that. That's what you want. 974 00:43:31,719 --> 00:43:33,560 Speaker 5: Excuse me, you want a self starter and a guy 975 00:43:33,560 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 5: wh's gonna get better every week. 976 00:43:34,520 --> 00:43:36,400 Speaker 1: And you talked earlier, like you said, like you, I 977 00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: watched London Larmie Tunnell took him under his win from 978 00:43:39,640 --> 00:43:42,279 Speaker 1: the get go, and here's a guy who also could 979 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,759 Speaker 1: potentially be in the Hall of Fame as well. 980 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:46,479 Speaker 2: It makes a difference, man, when you have a guy 981 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:49,839 Speaker 2: in that room, a veteran guy. I mean I had 982 00:43:49,880 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 2: it when I was a rookie guy. I went into 983 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 2: a rookie linebacker room with three or four vets that 984 00:43:55,760 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 2: have been ten plus years in the league. And when 985 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 2: you have a guy that plays your position and shows 986 00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:04,000 Speaker 2: you how to prepare, a lot of times you learn 987 00:44:04,080 --> 00:44:07,040 Speaker 2: by just watching them. And then initially you may be 988 00:44:07,080 --> 00:44:10,879 Speaker 2: a little bit hesitant to ask questions. And so later 989 00:44:10,960 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 2: on in that season, as I started to play a 990 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,440 Speaker 2: little bit more, especially I got thrust into the starting lineup. 991 00:44:16,920 --> 00:44:19,439 Speaker 2: The last game of the season against San Francisco forty 992 00:44:19,520 --> 00:44:23,839 Speaker 2: nine er Jerry Rice Steve Young te O was there. 993 00:44:24,239 --> 00:44:27,840 Speaker 2: They were rolling I was nervous. I asked one of 994 00:44:27,880 --> 00:44:31,120 Speaker 2: the veteran linebackers, like, how do you study We used 995 00:44:31,120 --> 00:44:33,279 Speaker 2: to call it the hit chart, basically, how do you 996 00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:35,760 Speaker 2: study the tendencies of a team? 997 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 3: Because I didn't. I wasn't there in my preparation and 998 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:39,759 Speaker 3: he taught me that. 999 00:44:40,239 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 2: So with with with Josh, he has laryered me take 1000 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:50,920 Speaker 2: him under his wing watch film together ask questions of him. Dude, 1001 00:44:51,520 --> 00:44:54,399 Speaker 2: Josh played every snap this season, I think, so didn't 1002 00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,239 Speaker 2: miss a single step. Yeah, and that's unheard of. 1003 00:44:57,560 --> 00:45:00,000 Speaker 4: And there's a rookie and there's something that veteran plays 1004 00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:02,480 Speaker 4: to this laramie point. They can help you with that. 1005 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:04,359 Speaker 4: No coach can help you with. Like I remember when 1006 00:45:04,360 --> 00:45:06,040 Speaker 4: I was doing with Kooley. He came up to me. 1007 00:45:06,080 --> 00:45:07,520 Speaker 4: He was like, hey man, why are you getting off 1008 00:45:07,520 --> 00:45:09,600 Speaker 4: the ball so late? And I was like, we pull 1009 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 4: the clip up. I was like, I'm not off the 1010 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 4: ball late, and he went like, play pause, play pause, 1011 00:45:13,680 --> 00:45:15,920 Speaker 4: play pause, and there's everyone's moving and Logan paulse and 1012 00:45:16,040 --> 00:45:18,520 Speaker 4: still stuck there and I was like, honestly, I don't know. 1013 00:45:18,640 --> 00:45:20,799 Speaker 4: He's like, we'll go talk to Casey Ryebach and ask 1014 00:45:20,920 --> 00:45:22,719 Speaker 4: him when he snaps the football and I was like, 1015 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,440 Speaker 4: what do you mean he's snapping it on set, Like 1016 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 4: that's the cadence. And then so I went talked to 1017 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:29,000 Speaker 4: Rye back and He's like, I actually snap it on 1018 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 4: the s you know. And so but you know what 1019 00:45:31,280 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 4: I'm saying, But that's something that you know, there's Kyle Shanahan, 1020 00:45:34,840 --> 00:45:37,799 Speaker 4: Mike McDaniel. If all these really brilliant dudes are in there, 1021 00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:39,800 Speaker 4: and it takes someone who's been in the trenches to 1022 00:45:39,840 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 4: tell you. So to Fletch's point, having a guy like 1023 00:45:41,960 --> 00:45:43,680 Speaker 4: tunsl in there to be like, hey, man on the 1024 00:45:43,719 --> 00:45:46,360 Speaker 4: silent count, do this on the whatever like this is 1025 00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 4: it's he's giving you the answers to the test. 1026 00:45:48,600 --> 00:45:49,360 Speaker 5: So that mentorship. 1027 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 3: Man. So if you. 1028 00:45:51,960 --> 00:45:56,320 Speaker 2: Especially if you don't have a good coach, and we 1029 00:45:56,400 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 2: got it. We got a great coach here, a great 1030 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,160 Speaker 2: office line coach. I'm just talking about. And I'm on 1031 00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:03,600 Speaker 2: some teams where not even I won't say good coach. 1032 00:46:04,120 --> 00:46:07,200 Speaker 2: A coach that may be they can show you, hey, 1033 00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,480 Speaker 2: this is your responsibilities. But it's a difference than how 1034 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 2: do I do my job? Can I can you teach 1035 00:46:13,280 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 2: me how to do it? And it's that Vet that 1036 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:20,839 Speaker 2: can teach you, Hey, whether it's alignment techniques, all these 1037 00:46:20,880 --> 00:46:24,600 Speaker 2: different things that these little nuances that only a guy 1038 00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,160 Speaker 2: who's been in those wars can give you those nuggets. 1039 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 2: And that's what that's what he's getting. And not only 1040 00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:34,439 Speaker 2: not only Layer me, I me, he got a great 1041 00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:37,320 Speaker 2: group of guys along that off while why these played 1042 00:46:37,320 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 2: a ton of football Alec Greddy's played a ton of 1043 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,759 Speaker 2: football guys is what three three times or whatever they've 1044 00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 2: been at it, be honest, man, a football player, he 1045 00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:55,840 Speaker 2: got fat, yeah, trip god man, he has guys that have. 1046 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:59,880 Speaker 3: Been through these wars and can feed into him. Uh. 1047 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 1: Trey Amos before his injury, probably the most consistent corner 1048 00:47:04,840 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 1: of the team had on the team. He looked like 1049 00:47:07,239 --> 00:47:09,399 Speaker 1: a day one starter in the spring. He became one 1050 00:47:09,560 --> 00:47:11,400 Speaker 1: in the fall. And it's too bad a season was 1051 00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:11,879 Speaker 1: cut short. 1052 00:47:12,400 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 5: Yeah. 1053 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 4: And I think when you look at him, like remembering 1054 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:16,160 Speaker 4: back to some of the stuff, like I wish he 1055 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:19,840 Speaker 4: could have been here, like when the communication got cleaned up, 1056 00:47:19,920 --> 00:47:22,799 Speaker 4: like kind of at that Miami junction point, because there 1057 00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:25,359 Speaker 4: were times where he's like he's what a great job man, 1058 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,759 Speaker 4: like playing with great like Fletcher's talking about off man 1059 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,960 Speaker 4: off three, playing through the football, attacking hands, playing the 1060 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 4: football well in the air. A lot of his mistakes 1061 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:37,040 Speaker 4: were just things weren't communicated effectively, and man in bunches 1062 00:47:37,120 --> 00:47:41,200 Speaker 4: man situations. So I have you know, I probably the 1063 00:47:41,280 --> 00:47:43,120 Speaker 4: highest on Connolly because he played the whole season. I 1064 00:47:43,160 --> 00:47:44,600 Speaker 4: mean that's a hard thing to do as a rookie. 1065 00:47:44,920 --> 00:47:46,880 Speaker 4: But I'm very high on Tree most and I think 1066 00:47:46,920 --> 00:47:48,719 Speaker 4: there are there's areas we can grow. I think there's 1067 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:52,320 Speaker 4: like a developing his body, the physicality tackling, not that 1068 00:47:52,400 --> 00:47:54,280 Speaker 4: he was a bad tackler, but just becoming more physical 1069 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,160 Speaker 4: in that way. But I think there's a lot to 1070 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,440 Speaker 4: be excited about with him, especially what he showed earlier in. 1071 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:02,279 Speaker 2: The yearly agree. One thing he has that you can't 1072 00:48:02,280 --> 00:48:06,439 Speaker 2: teach the size. Yeah, his his his size, his length 1073 00:48:07,520 --> 00:48:10,520 Speaker 2: to be able to play competitive. You know, he was 1074 00:48:10,600 --> 00:48:13,000 Speaker 2: first round corner. He was a Trey Amins was the 1075 00:48:13,040 --> 00:48:15,880 Speaker 2: first time first round corner. It was a little medical, 1076 00:48:16,320 --> 00:48:19,320 Speaker 2: but hey, our our staff said, hey, we're going to 1077 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:21,960 Speaker 2: take him, and he's a He's a heck of a 1078 00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 2: fine at that cornerback position. He's going to get continued 1079 00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 2: to get better because his injury is not one where 1080 00:48:28,480 --> 00:48:31,080 Speaker 2: he should miss a ton of time from our offseason 1081 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:36,480 Speaker 2: training standpoint leading up and getting more reps. So I'm 1082 00:48:36,520 --> 00:48:38,600 Speaker 2: thrilled to see him what he looks like next season. 1083 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:42,360 Speaker 1: Jalen Lane two punt returns for touchdowns, first rookie to 1084 00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:45,080 Speaker 1: do that in this uniform since the nineteen fifties, first 1085 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:48,440 Speaker 1: one since Brian Mitchell, any at any point in their 1086 00:48:48,480 --> 00:48:48,960 Speaker 1: career to do it. 1087 00:48:50,280 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 5: Fifties. 1088 00:48:51,920 --> 00:48:54,520 Speaker 3: He be Miss could have played in the fifties.

So when it happens 1157 00:52:00,800 --> 00:52:02,680 Speaker 2: is I love to see that type of stuff. 1158 00:52:02,960 --> 00:52:03,919 Speaker 3: I just love it, man. 1159 00:52:04,080 --> 00:52:05,600 Speaker 4: And with Jalen, I think a lot of fans will 1160 00:52:05,600 --> 00:52:07,640 Speaker 4: be like, well, he really didn't perform as a receiver. 1161 00:52:07,800 --> 00:52:10,000 Speaker 4: But I think like the expectation for whom was to 1162 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:11,759 Speaker 4: come in and be a full time punt returner and 1163 00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:14,719 Speaker 4: then grow into a receiver. And so because the expectation, 1164 00:52:15,360 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 4: like the game changed on him. I thought he did 1165 00:52:17,600 --> 00:52:20,080 Speaker 4: well enough with the receiver stuff, and I think we 1166 00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:21,600 Speaker 4: see what he can be as a returner and I 1167 00:52:21,640 --> 00:52:23,640 Speaker 4: think he can grow into more. So I think that's 1168 00:52:23,640 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 4: where people get like he talk to fans like, oh, 1169 00:52:25,640 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 4: we didn't do well. That wasn't what he was supposed 1170 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:29,120 Speaker 4: to be. Supposed to come in and be a full 1171 00:52:29,160 --> 00:52:31,600 Speaker 4: time returner. And could you imagine if he dedicated every 1172 00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,360 Speaker 4: resource to returning punts. 1173 00:52:33,400 --> 00:52:35,240 Speaker 5: This year, he probably would have broken the record. 1174 00:52:35,400 --> 00:52:37,600 Speaker 3: Yep, came and Drono didn't play very much. Do you 1175 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:38,400 Speaker 3: have anything to So? 1176 00:52:38,480 --> 00:52:39,840 Speaker 4: I think the thing about Kane is like it was 1177 00:52:39,960 --> 00:52:42,400 Speaker 4: nice to see a guy who was a raw, very 1178 00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,200 Speaker 4: like doing the scattering and put on him tremendous athlete. 1179 00:52:45,840 --> 00:52:49,319 Speaker 4: Very raw needed to develop as a tackler, and what's 1180 00:52:49,360 --> 00:52:51,000 Speaker 4: the best way to do that is to earn your 1181 00:52:51,040 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 4: way in a special team. So for a long time 1182 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:54,440 Speaker 4: he wasn't even doing that. And then I'd say, kind 1183 00:52:54,480 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 4: of that midpoint of the year, to see him get 1184 00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:59,920 Speaker 4: on teams and start being that dog special teams guy 1185 00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:02,719 Speaker 4: is valuable. And to hear him talk now, like in 1186 00:53:02,800 --> 00:53:04,920 Speaker 4: interviews and stuff like, because the thing that he did 1187 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 4: a great job at UCLA is playman coverage and get 1188 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:10,120 Speaker 4: the ball, produce the ball e whether it's punching the 1189 00:53:10,160 --> 00:53:12,120 Speaker 4: ball out or get interceptions. And thinking of him in 1190 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:15,640 Speaker 4: that like Buffalo Nickel highbred role kind of a defensive 1191 00:53:15,680 --> 00:53:18,880 Speaker 4: package next year. That's on the table for me because 1192 00:53:18,920 --> 00:53:20,920 Speaker 4: of all he did on special teams, because it shows 1193 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:23,160 Speaker 4: a maturation in the tackling and the physicality. 1194 00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, and he'll he'll benefit from a off season NFL 1195 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:30,239 Speaker 2: offseason in the strength program as well, because there were 1196 00:53:30,280 --> 00:53:33,440 Speaker 2: times where like they asked him to play the Frankie 1197 00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:36,960 Speaker 2: Loulou position. He's on to having to set the edge, 1198 00:53:37,040 --> 00:53:38,880 Speaker 2: and you know you got to you got to be 1199 00:53:38,920 --> 00:53:41,640 Speaker 2: a grown man out there. Said that is so he'll he'll, 1200 00:53:41,719 --> 00:53:46,120 Speaker 2: he'll develop man. Fans, pump your breaks when a rookie does, 1201 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:51,040 Speaker 2: I listen. I only play special teams all the way 1202 00:53:51,120 --> 00:53:53,200 Speaker 2: up until I made it start my last game of 1203 00:53:53,239 --> 00:53:56,279 Speaker 2: the season. I was not ready to play middle linebacker. 1204 00:53:56,920 --> 00:54:01,480 Speaker 3: Early in that season was twenty two hundred tackle. No, 1205 00:54:01,760 --> 00:54:02,920 Speaker 3: I may not have made it to that. 1206 00:54:03,080 --> 00:54:07,200 Speaker 2: I just wasn't ready because of the volume of knowledge 1207 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:09,800 Speaker 2: that you have to play these was it when you 1208 00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:13,880 Speaker 2: were a position player or every every down player. You 1209 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,040 Speaker 2: got to know first second down responsibility, pass covering. I'm 1210 00:54:17,080 --> 00:54:19,640 Speaker 2: speaking from a defense tepoint. Office is even harder. I 1211 00:54:19,719 --> 00:54:21,920 Speaker 2: was going to say, it's even harder for office a play. 1212 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:23,760 Speaker 4: I was just thinking about it, even just like basic 1213 00:54:23,880 --> 00:54:26,239 Speaker 4: outside zone, like so in college, like, oh, you just 1214 00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:27,719 Speaker 4: blocked the dead mant line of scrimmage and you just 1215 00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,160 Speaker 4: reach outside number here, It's like, is he a five 1216 00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:32,680 Speaker 4: is the A six The call changes is five six 1217 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,920 Speaker 4: nine changes? Where's the linebacker positioning? We got to make 1218 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:37,680 Speaker 4: a different call, Like the tackle is not gonna be 1219 00:54:37,719 --> 00:54:39,640 Speaker 4: with you. You got to identify pressure. You got to 1220 00:54:39,640 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 4: make a call for that. And so like this one play, 1221 00:54:42,480 --> 00:54:44,680 Speaker 4: which was the easiest play you ever ran in college, 1222 00:54:44,719 --> 00:54:47,200 Speaker 4: it's like now it's like a dissertation in terms of 1223 00:54:47,480 --> 00:54:48,919 Speaker 4: identifying coverages in front. 1224 00:54:49,120 --> 00:54:53,280 Speaker 3: So even Uh as an offense guy receiver, oh my gosh. 1225 00:54:53,120 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 2: Based on his route against man, might be the man 1226 00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:59,439 Speaker 2: office different than press man. I tell you the story 1227 00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:02,680 Speaker 2: of middlefield closed versus middlefield open. And he has to 1228 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:03,880 Speaker 2: do this on the flush. 1229 00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,680 Speaker 4: So we were installing stick. It's a three step quick 1230 00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:08,799 Speaker 4: game route. You know, some people call it zampz right 1231 00:55:09,120 --> 00:55:11,080 Speaker 4: on the back side of stick, you're in a thunder 1232 00:55:11,480 --> 00:55:15,040 Speaker 4: and so on the paper, johnavas eight on the paper's 1233 00:55:15,080 --> 00:55:16,920 Speaker 4: drawn up as an eight yard hitch right. But if 1234 00:55:16,920 --> 00:55:19,239 Speaker 4: it's free access, it becomes a five yard stop. If 1235 00:55:19,239 --> 00:55:21,280 Speaker 4: it's press man, it becomes an eight yard hitch running 1236 00:55:21,280 --> 00:55:24,080 Speaker 4: out towards the sideline. If it's covered two outside release 1237 00:55:24,400 --> 00:55:27,680 Speaker 4: hole shot And that's one route. And I was just like, 1238 00:55:27,920 --> 00:55:30,600 Speaker 4: this is day one this is the first play that 1239 00:55:30,719 --> 00:55:32,800 Speaker 4: they give you, and they're like, and everybody has to 1240 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,760 Speaker 4: know that route because we can be in twelve personnel, 1241 00:55:34,960 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 4: we can be in flank, you can be out there 1242 00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:36,920 Speaker 4: by yourself. 1243 00:55:37,200 --> 00:55:39,040 Speaker 3: And I was just like, what about pressure? 1244 00:55:40,719 --> 00:55:42,719 Speaker 5: So then on the front side, the stick has to 1245 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:43,799 Speaker 5: know the hot rules, right. 1246 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:46,640 Speaker 4: So it's like, so here's this play that is like again, 1247 00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:49,320 Speaker 4: it's like a throwaway install And it was one of 1248 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,600 Speaker 4: the more complicated plays that I've ever had to learn. 1249 00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,320 Speaker 4: And so don't even get me started about when you 1250 00:55:53,360 --> 00:55:55,160 Speaker 4: go from like, hey, we got to draw on and 1251 00:55:55,200 --> 00:55:57,759 Speaker 4: if we get pressure, we're gonna can it to this meter. 1252 00:55:57,960 --> 00:55:59,800 Speaker 4: And so like people think, oh, you just come in, 1253 00:56:00,080 --> 00:56:00,880 Speaker 4: I could be easy to be. 1254 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,680 Speaker 3: Spot play defense. Here's it. 1255 00:56:04,200 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 2: So here's an example of a defensive call. It might 1256 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:15,480 Speaker 2: be under Pirate two under front, under front Pirate cover 1257 00:56:15,600 --> 00:56:18,680 Speaker 2: two on the back end under Pirate fifty seven. So 1258 00:56:19,200 --> 00:56:22,279 Speaker 2: under Pirate fifty seven. Actually that's a car versus a 1259 00:56:22,400 --> 00:56:27,080 Speaker 2: slot we're gonna play. We'll play five versus base from 1260 00:56:27,160 --> 00:56:32,719 Speaker 2: two of its cover two cover two slot. It's cover two, 1261 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:36,840 Speaker 2: but it's a different version of cover two. Now it's 1262 00:56:37,160 --> 00:56:40,359 Speaker 2: a different animal of how you how you fit those 1263 00:56:40,440 --> 00:56:43,720 Speaker 2: runs up. It keeps the corners from running over stuff 1264 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:48,920 Speaker 2: like that. So, but defense are easy for defense. Three words. 1265 00:56:49,600 --> 00:56:57,279 Speaker 2: Everybody knows the responsibility hot cover, two, hot front rush 1266 00:56:57,320 --> 00:56:58,480 Speaker 2: the quarterback. 1267 00:56:58,800 --> 00:57:00,880 Speaker 3: Smoke right. 1268 00:57:02,280 --> 00:57:05,000 Speaker 5: Run for us offensively, line up and get out of 1269 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:05,680 Speaker 5: the quarterback. 1270 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:07,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, I got twenty words. 1271 00:57:09,560 --> 00:57:11,400 Speaker 5: To know what to do. 1272 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:15,399 Speaker 1: Last one Bill seventh round pick hit Okay, he uh. 1273 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:19,640 Speaker 1: He was essentially a part time player in the middle 1274 00:57:19,680 --> 00:57:21,640 Speaker 1: of the season. He still ended up with eight hundred 1275 00:57:21,720 --> 00:57:24,560 Speaker 1: yards and eight touchdowns. So he's got home run ability. 1276 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,680 Speaker 1: I think on a number of different levels, if some 1277 00:57:28,840 --> 00:57:31,960 Speaker 1: things get unlocked, which is I think on running the ball. 1278 00:57:32,240 --> 00:57:33,080 Speaker 3: Waiting for your pitch. 1279 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 1: Can they incorporate him in the passing game a little bit? 1280 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,840 Speaker 1: Do they trust him in protection where he becomes more 1281 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:42,040 Speaker 1: of an every down back. I think the sky's the 1282 00:57:42,160 --> 00:57:45,520 Speaker 1: limit for him. Look at those numbers in the role 1283 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:48,200 Speaker 1: that he played throughout the year, up and down where 1284 00:57:48,200 --> 00:57:51,640 Speaker 1: the sometimes the opportunities were extremely limited. Those are gaudy 1285 00:57:51,760 --> 00:57:54,880 Speaker 1: numbers for somebody who was not the full time starting 1286 00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:55,440 Speaker 1: running back. 1287 00:57:55,720 --> 00:57:58,400 Speaker 4: And talk about a position that the jump from college 1288 00:57:58,440 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 4: to the NFL is really steep because of the protection rules. 1289 00:58:02,560 --> 00:58:04,360 Speaker 4: Like for him to come in and be that productive, 1290 00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,360 Speaker 4: I think is a testament to a the coaching staff 1291 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:08,880 Speaker 4: and how they deployed him, but also his maturation over 1292 00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 4: the year. So I think obviously the physical tools are there, 1293 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,919 Speaker 4: but like Fletcher was talking about with the defensive calls, 1294 00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,640 Speaker 4: I was talking about the offensive calls, like protection for 1295 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:18,000 Speaker 4: the back in the NFL is a nightmare. 1296 00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:19,200 Speaker 5: So he's got a lot. 1297 00:58:19,320 --> 00:58:21,120 Speaker 4: There's a steep learning curve there for him on that 1298 00:58:21,280 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 4: in that front, and I think we saw him get better. 1299 00:58:22,800 --> 00:58:24,720 Speaker 4: I think he can still continue to get better. And 1300 00:58:24,760 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 4: I think the understanding fronts, understanding pressures on first and 1301 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:30,120 Speaker 4: second down only help him as a runner two. So 1302 00:58:30,280 --> 00:58:32,160 Speaker 4: but I think the talent is there. And for a 1303 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,600 Speaker 4: guy in the seventh round, Fletch like, I just think, 1304 00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:37,200 Speaker 4: like there's five We just talked about five picks, and 1305 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:39,840 Speaker 4: it's very rare that I'm excited about all five guys, 1306 00:58:40,280 --> 00:58:42,240 Speaker 4: and so for us to be kind of juiced about 1307 00:58:42,240 --> 00:58:43,720 Speaker 4: those five guys feel like a pretty good deal. 1308 00:58:43,800 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, man, it's it takes a minute and the 1309 00:58:47,760 --> 00:58:52,120 Speaker 2: pass pro being able to block those blitz and linebackers, 1310 00:58:52,240 --> 00:58:56,280 Speaker 2: that's the thing. Terrible if you if it takes guys. 1311 00:58:56,600 --> 00:58:59,240 Speaker 2: It's ten year vets that don't know how to block 1312 00:58:59,280 --> 00:59:01,680 Speaker 2: these blits and lines. You gotta be willing to put 1313 00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:04,440 Speaker 2: your face in the fire, so to speak. Sometimes you 1314 00:59:04,480 --> 00:59:06,800 Speaker 2: got to take a charge. Sometimes you gotta you gotta 1315 00:59:07,200 --> 00:59:09,200 Speaker 2: just get enough of them just to get that quarterback, 1316 00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 2: just enough time to get that ball off. McNichols has 1317 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 2: made McNichols was excellent at it. Uh Eckler excellent at it. 1318 00:59:20,440 --> 00:59:25,000 Speaker 2: And Bill he talked DQ was talking about Watch watch 1319 00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:28,400 Speaker 2: Connolly from the first game against Dallas. In the second game, 1320 00:59:28,880 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 2: watch Bill pass pro when he when he had the 1321 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:36,680 Speaker 2: opportunity to pass pro early until later on huge improvements. 1322 00:59:37,080 --> 00:59:38,840 Speaker 1: Since you mentioned McNichols, I got to bring him up 1323 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:41,160 Speaker 1: because one of my favorite moments from the season finale 1324 00:59:41,760 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 1: was him realizing that they were going to be in 1325 00:59:44,840 --> 00:59:48,280 Speaker 1: an illegal formation because Colson did not line up where 1326 00:59:48,280 --> 00:59:50,560 Speaker 1: he was supposed to, and right before they had to 1327 00:59:50,560 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: get a snap offf he just ran over and covered 1328 00:59:52,520 --> 00:59:54,840 Speaker 1: the tackle and we saw this happen in real time. 1329 00:59:55,280 --> 00:59:59,080 Speaker 1: This guy had an underrated great year for them. 1330 00:59:59,640 --> 01:00:04,040 Speaker 2: So you niggah, So you know what happens if he 1331 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:07,240 Speaker 2: didn't do that, If he didn't if he didn't get 1332 01:00:07,320 --> 01:00:12,040 Speaker 2: on the line up properly, we don't get those three 1333 01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:16,880 Speaker 2: points at halftime because we had no more time outs. Yep, 1334 01:00:17,440 --> 01:00:19,520 Speaker 2: it was five seconds when we clocked it. It's a 1335 01:00:19,640 --> 01:00:22,520 Speaker 2: ten second runoff. With that penalty, we don't cout the 1336 01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 2: we we don't have any time ouse left. So that 1337 01:00:26,280 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 2: veteran doing what he did, yep, really got us three 1338 01:00:30,280 --> 01:00:33,160 Speaker 2: points and those three points were big in that game yesterday. 1339 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:34,920 Speaker 4: Like I always like to think, oh I would have 1340 01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:36,360 Speaker 4: thought of that, but like for him as a back 1341 01:00:36,440 --> 01:00:38,680 Speaker 4: to be like, oh, we're ineligible like now. 1342 01:00:38,720 --> 01:00:42,200 Speaker 2: The only other guy that I saw that would do 1343 01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:45,640 Speaker 2: something that did something similar to that was Marshall Fulk. 1344 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:52,640 Speaker 2: We're playing the Tennessee Titans, and Marshall one of the 1345 01:00:52,680 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: smartest football players I've ever been around. We had to 1346 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:57,360 Speaker 2: every position probably right we had. We're in a two 1347 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 2: minute situation, we're trailing the Titans. Isaac came catches the pass. 1348 01:01:02,800 --> 01:01:06,520 Speaker 2: He gets drilled. I'm talking about drill. He can't even 1349 01:01:06,560 --> 01:01:10,560 Speaker 2: get up, but we have no timeouts. We got to 1350 01:01:10,600 --> 01:01:12,800 Speaker 2: clock it because we get the first down, but he 1351 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:14,960 Speaker 2: has to get up. He's laying on the ground. Marshall 1352 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:18,280 Speaker 2: picks him up just so Oz can be in on 1353 01:01:18,400 --> 01:01:21,320 Speaker 2: a lot of scrimmage and information so we could clock 1354 01:01:21,400 --> 01:01:23,520 Speaker 2: it and didn't get him off the football field. 1355 01:01:23,760 --> 01:01:24,000 Speaker 5: Wow. 1356 01:01:25,840 --> 01:01:27,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, special special. 1357 01:01:27,560 --> 01:01:30,960 Speaker 1: Nick Nichols, Jeremy Reeves underrated players this year that really really, 1358 01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:32,040 Speaker 1: really great seasons. 1359 01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:35,800 Speaker 3: So the Reeves interception I talked to him about. 1360 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 5: So it was gonna cover six to me when I 1361 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 5: watched it last nime. 1362 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:40,360 Speaker 3: Bang it. But it wasn't. 1363 01:01:40,680 --> 01:01:41,120 Speaker 5: It wasn't. 1364 01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:42,000 Speaker 3: It was covered three. 1365 01:01:42,720 --> 01:01:43,400 Speaker 4: No, it was not. 1366 01:01:44,200 --> 01:01:45,920 Speaker 3: I asked him. Remember we talked. 1367 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:47,520 Speaker 2: When I asked him, I was like, dude, how did 1368 01:01:47,560 --> 01:01:50,560 Speaker 2: you make that pick? Because I remember I was talking about, Hey, 1369 01:01:50,600 --> 01:01:54,040 Speaker 2: Paton against this guy? It was covered three and then 1370 01:01:54,160 --> 01:01:57,920 Speaker 2: thee we weren't getting great replays up in the ump 1371 01:01:58,000 --> 01:02:01,360 Speaker 2: in the booths on the TV copies. I looked at 1372 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:04,240 Speaker 2: it again, even after he told me it was cover three. 1373 01:02:04,360 --> 01:02:06,240 Speaker 2: I said, what youre You went from the post? He said, 1374 01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:10,640 Speaker 2: I knew what the strong side was, and I left 1375 01:02:10,680 --> 01:02:13,640 Speaker 2: the middle of the field and robbed that. 1376 01:02:13,800 --> 01:02:14,880 Speaker 3: Uh that post. 1377 01:02:15,760 --> 01:02:18,040 Speaker 2: If you look at it now, you got that information 1378 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 2: because the safety opposite him stayed so high. It looks 1379 01:02:21,680 --> 01:02:24,840 Speaker 2: still like quarters. It looks quarters over there, but that 1380 01:02:25,000 --> 01:02:27,200 Speaker 2: was cover three.
