1 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:21,040 Speaker 1: You are listening to the End Around podcast. This is 2 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,400 Speaker 1: Matt Debeek joined by Will mcfan and Kelsey Conway Atlanta 3 00:00:24,440 --> 00:00:27,960 Speaker 1: Falcons dot Com and we are here at Mercedes Benz 4 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 1: Stadium on a late Thanksgiving Day night following the twenty 5 00:00:33,479 --> 00:00:39,080 Speaker 1: s eighteen loss to the Saints. And it was for 6 00:00:39,159 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 1: three quarters a frustrating game to watch. And at the end, 7 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,880 Speaker 1: the Falcons somehow managed to make it a game, guys, 8 00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: with the three consecutive on side kick recoveries. One was 9 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:55,280 Speaker 1: called back, But the story of the game for me, 10 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:59,360 Speaker 1: guys was once again the offensive line play. Matt Ryan 11 00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:04,320 Speaker 1: took a beat sacked a season high nine times tonight, 12 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,880 Speaker 1: and we can we can talk about that and pick 13 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 1: that one apart, but I just want to get your 14 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: guys initial takeaways from this one outside the offensive line. 15 00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 1: Will Yeah, well, I mean you say outside of the 16 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,080 Speaker 1: offense line. It I think it's really hard to to 17 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: separate that from tonight's game. I mean, nine sacks in 18 00:01:23,160 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 1: one game is kind of hard to even imagine. I mean, 19 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: the Falcons had what seven sacks through their first eight games, 20 00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: and the Saints had two more in four quarters. You know, 21 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: you wrote in your column that their biggest issue remains 22 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:38,960 Speaker 1: an issue, and it's one that you know, going into 23 00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,360 Speaker 1: this offseason, we knew was an issue. It was something 24 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,760 Speaker 1: that they put a lot of money towards, you know, correcting. 25 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:46,800 Speaker 1: They put draft picks in there to end. Chris Lynchtrom's 26 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: not out there, so I guess that remains to be 27 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: seen what he can do. But you're right, it remains 28 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: an issue, and you can't. You're you're not gonna win 29 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: football games when you give up nine sacks. And that's 30 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:02,280 Speaker 1: I actually think the defense played pretty commendably tonight. But yeah, 31 00:02:02,280 --> 00:02:04,360 Speaker 1: that's why I wanted to get into couldn't do anything. 32 00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: That's where I want to get into. Besides the offensive line, 33 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: I thought, despite it all, the defense held New Orleans 34 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: and Drew Brees that offense in check. Kelsey at least 35 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,560 Speaker 1: gave him a fighting chance. And the offense just, you know, 36 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 1: with just the plays, the sacks and and some of 37 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: the turnovers just kind of shot itself in the foot 38 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: time and time again tonight. And yet there they were 39 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: at the end. But your thoughts on tonight, Yeah, you 40 00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: guys talked about the sacks, but I think even more 41 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 1: so than that, the first half when this team has 42 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 1: played well, they've been able to build on consecutive drives, 43 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:52,120 Speaker 1: and they've been able to start the game and playing well. 44 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,080 Speaker 1: And just the first half, I mean, there was just 45 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 1: too too many drives where they came away with no points, 46 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,200 Speaker 1: or there was a penalty, or they you know, weren't 47 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,280 Speaker 1: able to convert on third down. They just were never 48 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 1: able to get the momentum they needed to combat the 49 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: defensive play because as we've seen those two games when 50 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 1: they won, it was complimentary football. Defense was getting stops, 51 00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:17,520 Speaker 1: offense was going down and scoring. This was the exact 52 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:20,640 Speaker 1: opposite of what they wanted. The Falcons offense needed to 53 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,160 Speaker 1: come out and put their foot on the gas and 54 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,160 Speaker 1: put up some points and make the Saints have to 55 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,400 Speaker 1: play from behind like they did a couple of weeks ago, 56 00:03:28,480 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 1: and they just didn't do that. So, yes, I agree 57 00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: with you guys completely. The defense did enough for the 58 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 1: Falcons to you know, be competitive in this game. The offense, 59 00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:40,080 Speaker 1: in my opinion, it was one of their more disappointing 60 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,920 Speaker 1: performances of the season. Yeah, and you know, it's just 61 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 1: the first few series of this game. I just found 62 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 1: myself going, here we go again, you know, how many 63 00:03:54,520 --> 00:03:56,640 Speaker 1: times did we talk about in the first you know, 64 00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: several games of season where the Falcons just dug themselves 65 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: into an early hole and just couldn't dig themselves out 66 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:07,840 Speaker 1: of it. And Taysom Hill tonight, my goodness, you know, 67 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: with the black pot and the touchdown catch and then 68 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,600 Speaker 1: the touchdown run, was putting on a show tonight, and 69 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:17,000 Speaker 1: I just thought, I thought they were going to get 70 00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:20,560 Speaker 1: blown out of the best tonight. But they made a 71 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 1: lot of adjustments after that Taysom Hill touchdown. Yeah, And offensively, 72 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 1: it didn't seem like the Falcons made any adjustments throughout 73 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:31,720 Speaker 1: the game. That was the difference. Defensively, I thought they 74 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: played a lot better after that. I agree, No, And 75 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:36,960 Speaker 1: the kind of speaking along the lines of adjustments, you 76 00:04:36,960 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 1: could see that the Saints made adjustments coming into this game. 77 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,440 Speaker 1: Drew Brees was sacked six times in that first meeting, 78 00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: and tonight, you know, I know on the broadcast they 79 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 1: had a little, um I guess graphic come up that 80 00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:48,400 Speaker 1: showed how fast he was getting the ball out. He 81 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: was averaging two point two seconds from snap to ball 82 00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: being out of his hand, and he was hit maybe 83 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,239 Speaker 1: once tonight on that Dion Jones blitz up the middle. 84 00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 1: So clearly that was effective for the Saints in saying, 85 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 1: you know, we got to get the ball out of 86 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:05,720 Speaker 1: Drew Brees' hand he can't hold up against his pass rush. 87 00:05:05,880 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 1: The Falcons couldn't make those adjustments on the offense or 88 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,440 Speaker 1: weren't willing to or tried, and it didn't work. I 89 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 1: don't know what happened there, but you know, you take 90 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: a page out of your opponent's playbook and you got 91 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 1: to figure out something that's going to work when you're 92 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: not able to block the guys that they're sending, and 93 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:23,600 Speaker 1: the Falcons weren't able to do that tonight. But you 94 00:05:23,600 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 1: mentioned Taysom Hill and his block punt and this game 95 00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 1: to start to this game really reminded me of the 96 00:05:28,440 --> 00:05:31,599 Speaker 1: Vikings game. First play the game as a sack. Then 97 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 1: the first offensive possession ends, you punt the ball near 98 00:05:34,920 --> 00:05:37,159 Speaker 1: your own end zone and it gets blocked and the 99 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:40,800 Speaker 1: Saints have what a twenty five yard field, They march 100 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,279 Speaker 1: it down, you know, score a touchdown. But again, I 101 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,200 Speaker 1: think the defense played well. They were putting a tough 102 00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 1: situation on that on that series. But yeah, I mean, 103 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:50,800 Speaker 1: I think the three of us are in agreement here. 104 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: When we look at this game in the outcome, we 105 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,640 Speaker 1: put it more on the offense than the defense for sure. 106 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 1: I mean you look at just Drew Brees's numbers. I 107 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:02,240 Speaker 1: mean he very underwhelming. He eighteen, He had thirty attempts 108 00:06:02,360 --> 00:06:04,800 Speaker 1: eighteen completions for only one hundred and eighty four yards. 109 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:07,320 Speaker 1: But they had the big plays. They got the big 110 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,119 Speaker 1: plays when they need him. Their defense, it really doesn't 111 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:14,160 Speaker 1: matter their defense, you know, made big plays. They they 112 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 1: forced turnovers, they harassed Matt Ryan Um. You know, DeVante 113 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 1: Freeman looked like he had a little bit of spunk 114 00:06:21,920 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: in him. You know, he had seventeen carries for fifty 115 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,400 Speaker 1: one yards, but by and large, it just wasn't a 116 00:06:26,440 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 1: lot of running room. He almost broke one tonight, but 117 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:33,039 Speaker 1: he just there wasn't anywhere to run. And even Brian Hill, 118 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:36,320 Speaker 1: you know, he had you know, four years for thirteen yards. 119 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 1: But it's just I think he wasn't. I think you're 120 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:42,360 Speaker 1: spot on. There were multiple times throughout this game where 121 00:06:42,839 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, you you could see the hole and you 122 00:06:45,279 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: could see that DeVante saw the hole and as he's 123 00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 1: you know, making the cut towards it or trying to 124 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: get through it. Boom it closed immediately, and it was 125 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure incredibly frustrating for him because it's there, You've 126 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:59,160 Speaker 1: got it blocked, and then all of a sudden it disappeared. 127 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:02,360 Speaker 1: But I do think the Falcons did a much better 128 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 1: job of staying with the run and being patient, but 129 00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: turnovers ultimately killed too many of the offensive drives. The 130 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 1: few times they did get it moving and they got 131 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,640 Speaker 1: into you know, plus territory, I just don't think it 132 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 1: manifested for them because turnovers played a big role in 133 00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: that as well. Kelsey No, Julio Jones tonight, but Man 134 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 1: Christian Blake, Jade and Graham, Calvin Ridley, Russell Gage all 135 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: came out pretty big tonight in the passing game. Yeah, 136 00:07:31,360 --> 00:07:34,400 Speaker 1: I think if you could give a game ball away 137 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: to someone, you'd probably give it to Christian Blake, right. 138 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 1: I mean, this guy is on the practice squad. He's 139 00:07:42,400 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 1: you know, not even seeing any time until a couple 140 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: of weeks ago, when that you know, Falcons trades s 141 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:51,720 Speaker 1: new he becomes a bigger part of it. He's the clone, 142 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 1: but Russell Gauge is still seeing more opportunities than him, 143 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: and then you know, No Julio and he just you know, 144 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:02,520 Speaker 1: Dave Archer said on the broadcast, he sometimes you could 145 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 1: maybe expect there to be a miscue or him not 146 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 1: knowing where he's supposed to go. There was he didn't. 147 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:11,720 Speaker 1: He didn't have one mistake, it seemed like. And he 148 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: just went in there and caught every ball going his way. 149 00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 1: And I kind of liked the chippiness he can I 150 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,120 Speaker 1: say early on he was kind of chippy and he 151 00:08:19,160 --> 00:08:22,800 Speaker 1: didn't back down. I mean there he was undrafted receiver 152 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: going right at it with your top corner. I loved 153 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,720 Speaker 1: the way he came out and just played with a 154 00:08:29,720 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 1: lot of swagger and confidence. Yeah. I like seeing Christian 155 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: Blake get this opportunity. I mean I remember in twenty seventeen, 156 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,080 Speaker 1: the first day of rookie Minicamp, just kind of going 157 00:08:39,080 --> 00:08:41,880 Speaker 1: out there to see who surprised me, who stood out 158 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,319 Speaker 1: to me, who looks like they could play at the 159 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:45,520 Speaker 1: NFL level. And I wrote down his number at the 160 00:08:45,520 --> 00:08:47,680 Speaker 1: time was fifteen. As wrote number fifteen on the piece 161 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,679 Speaker 1: of paper, that was Christian Blake. And that was during 162 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:53,120 Speaker 1: rookie Minicamp tryouts. And it just goes to show, you know, 163 00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:55,480 Speaker 1: you earn your opportunity and you keep working. And now 164 00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,439 Speaker 1: he's out here making big time catches on Sunday or 165 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: on a Thanksgiving night Thursday night against the New Orleans 166 00:09:01,679 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 1: Saints and on primetime television. I mean that's pretty cool. Yeah, 167 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,160 Speaker 1: pretty cool. He definitely set himself up for future. If 168 00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:12,040 Speaker 1: you know, who knows how long or if what he'll 169 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:15,199 Speaker 1: do with the Falcons. Obviously they have a lot of receivers. 170 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: But he made himself known on national TV tonight for sure. 171 00:09:18,920 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: And that's another guy that's becoming one of my favorites 172 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:25,440 Speaker 1: to watch play. I just hope he's okay. You know, 173 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 1: from the preseason when he's had his opportunities in the 174 00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: in the limited times he's played Jade and Graham. Oh 175 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: my goodness, is he not fun to watch? I like 176 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 1: that touchdown dance. Yeah, I mean, just he took a 177 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 1: brutal shot. Though he was hit low, he still caught 178 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: the ball. Um. You know, someone's got to teach him, 179 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 1: um you know what to do with when once he 180 00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: catches the ball and protect himself a little bit better. 181 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:57,920 Speaker 1: But he seems to take a lot of shots. I 182 00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: know in the preseason, everyone remembers him for the hurdle 183 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,040 Speaker 1: against the Jets, he could have used. It would have 184 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:07,160 Speaker 1: been nice to be whipped out that hurdle tonight. But no, 185 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,720 Speaker 1: he's just he's just somebody. He forecatches for forty one 186 00:10:09,800 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 1: yards a touchdown. Just fun to watch. And you know, 187 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 1: Kenyan Barner was another guy. He just there. He's just 188 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:20,720 Speaker 1: a spark to this team this year in the return game. 189 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: He's underrated as a receiver. I feel like that. I 190 00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,840 Speaker 1: just don't feel like they've utilized him enough in the offense. 191 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: You know, you were talking about him too, just what 192 00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: he's been a nice pickup this year. Well, and I 193 00:10:32,960 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 1: think that's also it's another case of missed opportunities. I mean, 194 00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: Kenyon Barner had that thing. It was like a forty 195 00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: yard his longest kick return of the year, and Falcons 196 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: weren't able to get any points off of the great 197 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 1: field position he got them. He did. He didn't make 198 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: me hold my breath a couple of times tonight, though, 199 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 1: probably fielding some balls that he may maybe you should 200 00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,199 Speaker 1: have let roll into the end zone or sure stayed 201 00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 1: away from. But but yeah, no, he's been great this year. 202 00:10:59,760 --> 00:11:04,400 Speaker 1: If you get a chance, check out the sideline after 203 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 1: one of those on side kicks. You'll I retweeted it, 204 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: I believe if you go to my Twitter timeline, but 205 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: Kenyan Barner is literally swimming out onto the field and 206 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 1: then someone is dragging him back to the sideline. It was. 207 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: It was like an army crawl. It was the weirdest, 208 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,640 Speaker 1: craziest thing I've ever seen. Quite celebration. But let's let's 209 00:11:29,640 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: get into some serious talk now about the offensive line. 210 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: It was the biggest story coming into this to the 211 00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: you know, the season, outside of the coaching changes, everyone 212 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:42,480 Speaker 1: knew they had to overhaul the offensive line. Guys. You know, 213 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 1: they invested heavily. James Carpenter Jamon Brown both signed first 214 00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:49,680 Speaker 1: day free and Z two first round draft picks. We 215 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:54,120 Speaker 1: haven't really seen Chris Linstrom, and they're about to give 216 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: up more sacks than they did last year. They're on 217 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: pace two in the running game is arguably statistically worse 218 00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:06,360 Speaker 1: than it was last year too. It just feels like 219 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:10,920 Speaker 1: it's going the wrong way. Yes, and it's tonight it 220 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: reared its ugly head, and I just feel like that 221 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:16,839 Speaker 1: a lot of people are gonna dog Matt Ryan. There 222 00:12:16,920 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: was a lot of tweets, you know, and so you 223 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,640 Speaker 1: know tonight and people making comments about Matt Ryan because 224 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: he had the the interceptions and then he got stiff 225 00:12:26,280 --> 00:12:30,679 Speaker 1: armed and that was an ugly play. But look, he 226 00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:34,200 Speaker 1: was two games in a row. Now he's been running 227 00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:37,760 Speaker 1: for his life. Yeah, I mean this is Arthur Blank. 228 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 1: How many times over the off season did you say, 229 00:12:40,160 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 1: you know, are we can't win if our quarterback is 230 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 1: you know, on his back And unfortunately he's been on 231 00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: his back way too much this season. And you know, 232 00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,880 Speaker 1: mentioned Chris Lynstrom the number one pick. I believe it 233 00:12:51,920 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 1: was fourteen overall. You know, he goes on IR after 234 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: week one, so that's tough. He would be your you know, 235 00:12:57,320 --> 00:12:59,679 Speaker 1: for all intents and purposes, starting right guard. You know, 236 00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:03,400 Speaker 1: we would assume still at this point. And yeah, this 237 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 1: rookie year, I think it stinks that he's not out 238 00:13:07,040 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: here because he needs kind of this growth. He needs that, 239 00:13:09,240 --> 00:13:11,280 Speaker 1: you know, kayleb McGarry has had some rough moments, but 240 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,559 Speaker 1: he's getting through these rough moments. He's also putting together 241 00:13:14,600 --> 00:13:17,199 Speaker 1: some good moments. So it's tough not having Chris Lynch 242 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: him out here. But again, you brought in guys like 243 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:21,480 Speaker 1: Jamal Brown and James Carpenter for that very reason, you 244 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: needed to build up your depth. The Falcons believe they 245 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 1: address address that depth this offseason, and we found out tonight. 246 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:30,480 Speaker 1: You know that has not been the case. Kelsey. You 247 00:13:30,600 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 1: talked to Arthur Blank, the Falcon's owner, out in Phoenix 248 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 1: at the owner's meeting when he had that quote about 249 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: Matt and just how critical it was to fix the 250 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: offensive line. And you also talked to Jamon Brown today 251 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,920 Speaker 1: after the game your thoughts and just where you know, 252 00:13:49,080 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 1: just talking to the players after the game, just the 253 00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 1: sense of where they feel like they are, because I 254 00:13:56,520 --> 00:13:58,960 Speaker 1: saw your one quote. Just Jamal Brown just said we 255 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:03,520 Speaker 1: just didn't were jobs. Yeah, Jamon Brown after the game 256 00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:07,040 Speaker 1: didn't have a whole lot to say other than it's 257 00:14:07,040 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: our job to protect Matt and we just didn't do 258 00:14:10,480 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: that tonight. And then he kind of got into more 259 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 1: detailed by saying that when I asked, what were the 260 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 1: Saints doing that you know caused so many, so many issues, 261 00:14:20,760 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: and he said it was more just about the fact 262 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:26,720 Speaker 1: that the game kind of just snowballed. And he said offensively, 263 00:14:27,520 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: that's that's no excuse for us, but he felt like 264 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:34,800 Speaker 1: things just started to snowball and I was on the 265 00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: field for the last couple of minutes, and you could 266 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 1: just tell when the Falcons had the ball, if it 267 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:42,560 Speaker 1: was third down, the Saints were going to bring the pressure, 268 00:14:42,600 --> 00:14:46,520 Speaker 1: and it just felt like, no matter what anybody did, 269 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: Matt was going to have two seconds to try and 270 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: get the ball out and if those receivers weren't open, 271 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: And that's where Austin Hooper's presence was definitely missed today. 272 00:14:56,360 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: But Jaman just said, we didn't do it, We didn't 273 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 1: do a good enough job. And I think that's probably 274 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: got to be really really disappointing for DQ and Matt 275 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: Ryan because they both after last week's game against the 276 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,240 Speaker 1: Box were very complimentary about the offensive line despite you know, 277 00:15:15,280 --> 00:15:17,320 Speaker 1: allowing the six sacks. And I'm not putting it all 278 00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:19,600 Speaker 1: on the offensive line all the time. Well, he brought up, 279 00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,000 Speaker 1: you know a number of times, you know, the importance 280 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:24,880 Speaker 1: of running backs and in past protection and even on 281 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,400 Speaker 1: Matt in getting guys a line credit. So yeah, you're right, 282 00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:29,800 Speaker 1: they did kind of come to the defense of the 283 00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:32,120 Speaker 1: offensive line a little bit last week, and you can't 284 00:15:32,120 --> 00:15:34,800 Speaker 1: really come to the defense, you know, after a game 285 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 1: like this and the snowball thing. Sorry, continue coming. I 286 00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: was just gonna echo off that, but then matt said, 287 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 1: I expect them to bounce back, and I think I 288 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:48,560 Speaker 1: expect them to have a really good game today, and 289 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 1: the opposite happened. Like when you say you're going in 290 00:15:50,680 --> 00:15:54,800 Speaker 1: the wrong direction, it was even worse today. And it's 291 00:15:54,840 --> 00:15:58,760 Speaker 1: it's concerning when it's you know, guys like Jake Matthews 292 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 1: and Caleb mcgarre, the guys that are very first round picks, 293 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:05,480 Speaker 1: and you know, it's just a couple games sample size. 294 00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:09,960 Speaker 1: But that in addition to DQ saying the only people 295 00:16:09,960 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: on the offensive line have been pleased with this season 296 00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:15,800 Speaker 1: have been Alex Mack, Jake Matthews, and Caleb you can 297 00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,560 Speaker 1: put in, you can fill in the blanks that he's 298 00:16:17,760 --> 00:16:19,960 Speaker 1: talking about. He's not that pleased with the guard play. 299 00:16:20,080 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: So just across the board, it just doesn't seem like 300 00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:25,880 Speaker 1: they're getting the job done that they need to. Yeah, 301 00:16:25,880 --> 00:16:28,600 Speaker 1: and I don't think the Falcons offense did itself any favors. 302 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,760 Speaker 1: I mean, how many times tonight did we see some 303 00:16:31,840 --> 00:16:34,400 Speaker 1: combination of an incomplete pass on first down, run the 304 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: ball in second down, and then it's third and seven. 305 00:16:36,520 --> 00:16:38,520 Speaker 1: You know what the Saints have a good pass rush. 306 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: Camera Jordan is a Pro Bowl pass rush. He's very good. 307 00:16:42,680 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 1: You can't keep living in third and sevens and you know, 308 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:49,239 Speaker 1: third and tens against this team and have success. And 309 00:16:49,280 --> 00:16:51,720 Speaker 1: they didn't do enough on early downs to put themselves 310 00:16:51,760 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 1: in position to really move the chains on third. Dem Well, 311 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,000 Speaker 1: I have a scary stat for you. Just brought up 312 00:16:57,080 --> 00:17:02,760 Speaker 1: Cam Jordan. He sacked Matt Ryan eighteen times in his career. Yeah, 313 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:05,359 Speaker 1: that's I mean. And how many did he have tonight? 314 00:17:05,560 --> 00:17:13,080 Speaker 1: He had four sacks tonight. So there you go. Yeah, 315 00:17:13,160 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 1: so you know, just big, big picture guys. You know, 316 00:17:16,680 --> 00:17:19,919 Speaker 1: here here the Falcons are with four games left. We 317 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 1: had a little feel good, uh you know, two game 318 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:29,840 Speaker 1: ride there, and it just feels like that we're heading 319 00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:34,639 Speaker 1: for another offseason where you know, just they're gonna that 320 00:17:34,800 --> 00:17:37,880 Speaker 1: offensive line. They've got to figure it out and I 321 00:17:37,920 --> 00:17:41,479 Speaker 1: think getting if if they get Chris Winds from back 322 00:17:41,560 --> 00:17:42,960 Speaker 1: and they can see him for a couple of games, 323 00:17:43,080 --> 00:17:46,680 Speaker 1: that will I think that's going to be important. I agree, 324 00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 1: whether or not they can get him back, I don't know, 325 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 1: but I feel like we just that we but the 326 00:17:53,520 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 1: organization needs to see him play. And Dan Quinn has 327 00:17:56,359 --> 00:17:58,479 Speaker 1: said that he you know, is hitting all the markers 328 00:17:58,480 --> 00:18:00,800 Speaker 1: that he should hit, and that the team is pleased 329 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:03,760 Speaker 1: with his recovery. But they have not designated him to 330 00:18:03,840 --> 00:18:06,240 Speaker 1: return off BYR yet. He has not started practicing. The 331 00:18:06,280 --> 00:18:09,399 Speaker 1: twenty one day window has not started on them or 332 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,520 Speaker 1: on lynched him. Yet. They do not have to bring 333 00:18:12,600 --> 00:18:15,160 Speaker 1: him back this season. You know that they could choose 334 00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 1: not to if they don't believe his foot, you know, 335 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,600 Speaker 1: if there's a greater chance to reinjure it or it's 336 00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:22,080 Speaker 1: not where they want it to be. But I agree 337 00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 1: with you, I would really like to see what you know, 338 00:18:24,600 --> 00:18:26,359 Speaker 1: he could do, you know, to close out the season, 339 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,040 Speaker 1: to at least start to fill in some of those 340 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: questions on this offensive line. You need to know what 341 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:35,720 Speaker 1: you've got moving forward. So, you know, the first half 342 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:38,080 Speaker 1: of the season, we all the Achilles heel. We said 343 00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 1: was you know, you know the offense right and or 344 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:44,680 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, the defense, And you know, the defense is 345 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: statistically ranked at the bottom of the league in a 346 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:51,160 Speaker 1: number of categories. They weren't forcing turnovers, they weren't getting 347 00:18:51,200 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 1: to the quarterback all all the key areas. And now 348 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: it feels like since the buye the defense has kind 349 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,159 Speaker 1: of turned that corner figure things out. But the offensive 350 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,159 Speaker 1: line is just if you're not strong up the middle, 351 00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 1: you're not going to have a chance. And you know 352 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,679 Speaker 1: that's where the Falcons are. You know, you have to 353 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:16,199 Speaker 1: be strong in the trenches, and they're just not. And 354 00:19:16,359 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 1: so here we go. I don't know any closing thoughts, guys, 355 00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: as we wrap this one up. I have one Falcons fans, 356 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: Grady Jarrett deserves a Pro Bowl nod. That's my closing thought. 357 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:36,480 Speaker 1: That's a great closing thought. He's never been And let 358 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 1: me tell you, I tweeted this today. Can you imagine 359 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: the Falcons defense without Grady Jarrett? That guy plays hard 360 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:47,920 Speaker 1: and plays extremely well every single game, and he's never 361 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:49,439 Speaker 1: been to the Pro Bowl. So let's get him to 362 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 1: the Pro Bowl. I'll tell you what you know, if 363 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,040 Speaker 1: you if you try to find if you had to 364 00:19:54,040 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 1: pick one player on either side of the ball who's 365 00:19:56,520 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 1: been just consistent weekend in, weekend out, it's it's Grady Jared. 366 00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,040 Speaker 1: I mean, I really can't think of another player who 367 00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 1: you know, has been that consistent. And that's really a 368 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:11,280 Speaker 1: testament to the type of person he is, because he 369 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,840 Speaker 1: told you I think after signing his contract this offseason. 370 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 1: You know, this is just the start. This doesn't change anything. 371 00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:21,479 Speaker 1: And he has lived up to that you know phrase 372 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,760 Speaker 1: entirely this season. He has really played so well. Yeah, 373 00:20:25,760 --> 00:20:28,680 Speaker 1: he's had the foot on the gas, right he is. 374 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: He's just plays like he's hungry, like he's got something 375 00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:34,600 Speaker 1: to prove, like he's got a chip on his shoulder. Yeah. 376 00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:38,080 Speaker 1: As if you're a Falcons fan, you feel good about 377 00:20:38,200 --> 00:20:41,720 Speaker 1: number ninety seven, And unfortunately, there's not a lot of 378 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,120 Speaker 1: good things to feel about feel good about right now 379 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 1: as the Falcons kind of head down the stretch. Yeah, 380 00:20:49,119 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: and unfortunately, I think it's gonna be kind of hard 381 00:20:51,000 --> 00:20:53,680 Speaker 1: for him to maybe get into the Pro Bowl. There's 382 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:56,960 Speaker 1: some pretty good defensive tackles in the NFC. I think 383 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: he's one percent deserving and you know, Falcons fans, you 384 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 1: can have a say in that, but you better go vote. 385 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:06,200 Speaker 1: This can be there's there's some good there's some good 386 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: defense that goes. Yeah, well, the forty nine ers defensive 387 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 1: line might like all of them might make it. Who 388 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:17,080 Speaker 1: a defensive line that uh the fuckings are going to 389 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,879 Speaker 1: see shortly here? Yeah? Uh well, well guys on that, 390 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: now what I just want to say Happy Thanksgiving to 391 00:21:23,560 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 1: you guys. And uh, um, we didn't really get I'll 392 00:21:27,760 --> 00:21:29,720 Speaker 1: talk a whole lot about the end of that game, 393 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: but no, it was fun to fight at all. There 394 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 1: was I thought for a second we were going to 395 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,439 Speaker 1: pull off a Thanksgiving Day miracle? What did What did happen? 396 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:45,520 Speaker 1: What's the statistic for two onside kicks being recovered back 397 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:49,120 Speaker 1: to back like that? Will you? You wrote that story? Well, 398 00:21:49,160 --> 00:21:51,840 Speaker 1: so they're coming into this week. There had only been 399 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:58,400 Speaker 1: three kicks recovered this season. Um, I can't remember exactly 400 00:21:59,040 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: the number that had been attempted, but it was eight 401 00:22:01,600 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 1: point one percent of onside kicks this year had been 402 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 1: recovered in twenty seventeen, before they made the kickoff change, 403 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: where now eight of the eleven players on the return 404 00:22:13,080 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 1: team have to be within fifteen yards of where the 405 00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:17,480 Speaker 1: ball is being kicked. So you've got way more guys 406 00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: bunched up near the line. It makes it much more 407 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,320 Speaker 1: difficult to do an onside kick, and and also the 408 00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:24,639 Speaker 1: way you're not allowed to run before the ball is 409 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:28,680 Speaker 1: kicked anymore, so it's just much tougher. But in twenty seventeen, 410 00:22:28,720 --> 00:22:32,280 Speaker 1: before that rule was implemented, twenty one percent of onside 411 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:34,680 Speaker 1: kicks had been recovered. The next year after that rule 412 00:22:34,720 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: comes in twenty eighteen, it's seven point five so onside 413 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:43,359 Speaker 1: kicks aren't being recovered period for the For the Falcons 414 00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:47,119 Speaker 1: to get two, but really, de facto like three in 415 00:22:47,200 --> 00:22:50,239 Speaker 1: a row is insane. I would not want to be 416 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: New Orleans Special Teams coach like tomorrow because I'm sure 417 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 1: Sean Payton's going to have some words for him. But 418 00:22:56,520 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 1: the kudos kudos to the Falcons players for not giving 419 00:22:59,040 --> 00:23:01,960 Speaker 1: up and that they almost fought right back into this game. 420 00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 1: I was about we were going to sign this off 421 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,800 Speaker 1: about five minutes ago. But you know what I have 422 00:23:05,840 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: to say it the Falcons players just they haven't quit. 423 00:23:11,320 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 1: They keep you know what they're some of them just 424 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:17,639 Speaker 1: aren't getting their jobs done, but they keep playing. They 425 00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 1: keep showing up a weekend and week out. That that 426 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 1: says something, though, And you know it had this game 427 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:27,800 Speaker 1: or had this team won a few more of those 428 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 1: close games, you know, you can only wonder, you know 429 00:23:32,520 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 1: where they would be. But that's a lot of what 430 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:37,879 Speaker 1: if right now. But you know, this game was just 431 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:41,360 Speaker 1: a ton of I had a ton of what if 432 00:23:41,480 --> 00:23:44,239 Speaker 1: calls tonight. I mean the fourth and one. You know, 433 00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:48,639 Speaker 1: if they if they score there, if Younghue, who you know, 434 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:51,919 Speaker 1: makes a couple of his kicks on top of the end, 435 00:23:52,160 --> 00:23:54,680 Speaker 1: who knows how this game would have turned out. But yeah, 436 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:57,879 Speaker 1: it's it just seems like that's been this team for 437 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,960 Speaker 1: like three years for for his evenly as I think 438 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,840 Speaker 1: these two teams played for the most part. When you 439 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:07,800 Speaker 1: have nine sacks, that that is kind of the difference 440 00:24:07,840 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 1: in this game. Nine sacks, three turnovers. I mean it's 441 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:15,399 Speaker 1: you can you can kind of play well for you know, 442 00:24:15,640 --> 00:24:18,199 Speaker 1: most of the game, and then it comes down to 443 00:24:18,280 --> 00:24:21,720 Speaker 1: just literally those three turnovers and those nine sacks. I 444 00:24:21,760 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: sat next to Kelsey during the game, but I didn't 445 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,119 Speaker 1: really ask you this well. At that fourth and one call, 446 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 1: it looked like Blake was held on the goal line. 447 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 1: Was was he not held? And was It looked like 448 00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: dan Quinn was debating challenging that call. It was Was 449 00:24:39,960 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 1: there anything said more about that and the broadcast? He may, 450 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:45,920 Speaker 1: I mean, he may have been grabbed, but it looked 451 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,840 Speaker 1: like Calvin Ridley was kind of open right behind it. 452 00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:51,080 Speaker 1: They've kind of ran this double slant thing where I 453 00:24:51,119 --> 00:24:54,000 Speaker 1: think Calvin lined up on the inside and ran out, 454 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:56,840 Speaker 1: and Blake ran from the outside in and kind of 455 00:24:56,880 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: picked off his defenders. So it was a little bit 456 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,560 Speaker 1: of a pick play. And Calvin Den comes back in 457 00:25:00,600 --> 00:25:03,159 Speaker 1: on a slant behind that dude, and it looked like 458 00:25:03,200 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: Calvin was open. I don't know if the ball came 459 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,600 Speaker 1: out of Matt's hand weird, if it was tipped at 460 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 1: the line, or if he was just often maybe didn't 461 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 1: see Calvin, but that's what I saw. I mean it. Yeah, 462 00:25:13,600 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 1: it was just kind of a weird play. Wow, A 463 00:25:17,359 --> 00:25:19,840 Speaker 1: bunch of what ifs, A bunch of what ifs. So 464 00:25:19,920 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: what if? Thanksgiving? It's I think it's time to just 465 00:25:23,640 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 1: wrap it up right there.
