I'll tell you what I was lying last 0:01:16.520 --> 0:01:18.720 week about it about to be impact, but I'm telling 0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:22.560 the truth this week. Yes you are us. Turn out 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:27.000 today by the Jets of PSL holders. Did you see 0:01:27.000 --> 0:01:30.560 it coming? Did you see the dominants. Coming on Sunday afternoon, 0:01:30.560 --> 0:01:33.120 as the Jets took down to Miami Dolphins twenty six 0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:35.560 and their home opener, well I did. I knew this 0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:37.440 team had a chip on their shoulder. I knew they 0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.679 were going to make all the corrections. I felt like 0:01:39.760 --> 0:01:42.000 the defense was felt like they were embarrassed. I knew 0:01:42.000 --> 0:01:43.360 they were going to show up in front of their 0:01:43.400 --> 0:01:46.000 home crowd. And what a great home crowd to to 0:01:46.000 --> 0:01:47.600 to play in front of. To make it difficult for 0:01:47.600 --> 0:01:50.040 the Miami Dolphins to be able to make audibles at 0:01:50.040 --> 0:01:51.760 the line of scrimmage. And and the key to the 0:01:52.000 --> 0:01:54.840 gave me was that they won early in the down 0:01:55.000 --> 0:01:57.080 and they and they made them have to pick up 0:01:57.120 --> 0:01:59.720 third and sevens, third and five and whenever you can 0:01:59.760 --> 0:02:03.120 play from behind the sticks and you have opportunity really um, 0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:06.360 you know, to be successful. What was the difference against 0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:08.760 the run? Anybody who saw the Jets in the first 0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:11.600 two weeks, you were wondering what was going to happen. 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:13.760 And then they said, oh j I G I. E's 0:02:13.840 --> 0:02:16.120 coming up and he was a breakout player in the 0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:18.840 National Football League last year. But like you said, the 0:02:18.919 --> 0:02:23.000 Jets won early downs and then it was third and 0:02:23.040 --> 0:02:26.440 long in Miami, finished one of twelve and third down Sunday. 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.400 I'll tell you what. Fair is a great motivator. And 0:02:28.480 --> 0:02:30.519 j J I, he you know, had some great games 0:02:30.600 --> 0:02:32.920 last year. They knew what the challenge was and they 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.000 knew that they had to make the Dolphins one dimensional. 0:02:36.120 --> 0:02:37.959 Jake Cutler just got there. He was fresh in the 0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:41.280 in the broadcasters booth. And I know what that's bobbed 0:02:41.280 --> 0:02:43.880 when you mentally shut it down and you and you 0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.560 check out and trying to restart again. That he didn't 0:02:46.560 --> 0:02:48.720 have the chemistry, and they made him have to win 0:02:48.760 --> 0:02:51.120 the game. They made him one dimensional. I think Cony 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.760 Ealy did a great job early in the game. You know, 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:55.760 he caught um j J I. He was one of 0:02:55.760 --> 0:03:01.040 the UM Mexican Um growing punches. You know the city. 0:03:01.639 --> 0:03:04.680 He wasn't the same after the after the growing punch. Uh. 0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:07.440 And I think Da Mario David stepped up. You're talking, 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:11.200 you know, you know, I was very voiceous about UM 0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:13.799 the linebackers not playing well the first two weeks. And 0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:16.079 I have to give to Mario, you know David's credit. 0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:19.240 He played downhill, He played very physical, he played fast, 0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:21.520 he was decisive, and I think that was a difference 0:03:21.520 --> 0:03:24.440 because I think that the defensive line was getting penetration 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:26.680 the first two games. I just felt like the communication 0:03:26.760 --> 0:03:29.280 on the second level, like I said before, with them being, 0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:32.840 you know, setting the defense, um understanding that the Jets 0:03:32.919 --> 0:03:35.120 in the first two games were in man to man defense, 0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:37.800 they were setting the defense, and they weren't communicated. I 0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:39.640 felt like they were. Everybody was on the same page. 0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:42.440 Everybody did their job. I'm glad you mentioned to Mario 0:03:42.840 --> 0:03:46.440 now last year in Cleveland he played the mic linebacker spot. 0:03:46.760 --> 0:03:49.280 Now he is the mic linebacker with the New York Jets. 0:03:49.360 --> 0:03:52.760 For so long, Jets fans had been accustomed to David 0:03:52.800 --> 0:03:56.480 Harris being the mic linebacker here. Now I asked Todd 0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:58.760 Bowls after the game last night, what did he see 0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.720 from him? And he said, you know, he's getting everybody 0:04:01.800 --> 0:04:04.400 set up out there. I thought he played faster. Talk 0:04:04.440 --> 0:04:08.200 about the responsibilities being the mic linebacker in this defense, 0:04:08.320 --> 0:04:12.080 and what do you mean from a player's perspective or 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:15.040 playing downhill? We're playing downhill is no waste in motion. 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.200 When you see something, you you you you don't take 0:04:17.200 --> 0:04:19.400 any false steps, meaning that you don't step backwards to 0:04:19.440 --> 0:04:21.520 go forward, and you and you you close in the 0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:24.760 distance and you're very decisive, and you put pressure on 0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.440 the offensive line because you know they're they're looking to 0:04:27.520 --> 0:04:29.680 chip up and go to the next level to block you. 0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:32.960 And the longer you stay back, the more pressure there 0:04:33.000 --> 0:04:35.000 is on the defensive lineman because now they have two 0:04:35.040 --> 0:04:37.160 people on them, they're getting movement, and then they chip 0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:39.240 up to the linebacker. But what happens is when you 0:04:39.279 --> 0:04:42.680 come downhill, that lineman has to come off that's responsible 0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:45.200 for you, and then that allows the defensive lineman to 0:04:45.320 --> 0:04:47.839 only have to face half a man and get penetration, 0:04:47.880 --> 0:04:50.040 to only give the back one way to go um 0:04:50.320 --> 0:04:53.159 to answer your your your first question, the difference between 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:55.960 playing mic linebacker and wheel lineback. When Damoro Davis came 0:04:55.960 --> 0:04:57.840 and he was my backup, he was a wheel linebacker. 0:04:57.960 --> 0:05:00.719 It's really no responsibility. You know, you line up, you 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:02.680 kind of you know, make some adjustments. You might have 0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.599 some communication if you want to stab your end or 0:05:05.600 --> 0:05:07.200 if you want him to go up to field, or 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.600 if you have some type of blitz or some coordination. 0:05:09.920 --> 0:05:12.719 But when you're the mic linebacker, you know, you know 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.880 you're the quarterback of the defense. You have to get 0:05:14.920 --> 0:05:17.640 the call, and then it's always going to be a player. 0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:19.960 You know. I was often that player because I was 0:05:20.040 --> 0:05:22.880 over talking trash to somebody where I have to come back. 0:05:22.880 --> 0:05:24.920 And you're trying to focus on the keys to formation, 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:29.120 the checks close, left, clothes right up, under, reduced, changing 0:05:29.120 --> 0:05:31.479 the front, and then you got a player like myself 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:34.240 coming up like, hey, Dave, what's the call again? Oh 0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:37.080 so now you so now you're losing focus again. You know, 0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:38.880 you have to make the checks for the back and 0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.640 the front, you know, and sometimes it can be a lot, 0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:44.800 and then you don't have an opportunity to sit down 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:47.920 and diagnose, you know, the little things, and the little 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:50.320 thing makes makes the big difference. It's just line and 0:05:50.400 --> 0:05:52.560 leaning heavy on his fingers, you know, is he in 0:05:52.560 --> 0:05:55.360 a more of a run? Stands? It's the splits tighters, 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.920 It splits why, what's the what's the formation of the receivers? 0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.640 What's my responsibilits? If I have to read the combination 0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:03.880 of the ross. If the inside guy goes vertical and 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:06.080 the other guy comes underneath, do I stand the window? 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.200 Do I come down? And it's a lot to handle, 0:06:08.240 --> 0:06:10.360 and sometimes you know, you have to slow it down. 0:06:10.400 --> 0:06:12.400 If it's something new to you can be over with. 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:15.839 This is a football graduate school right in here on 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:18.160 inside the Jets. We don't play football one on one 0:06:18.240 --> 0:06:23.000 barts breaking the town to so too Okay, I like that, um, 0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:26.720 not too much. What did you think about rookie Jamal Adams. 0:06:26.760 --> 0:06:30.640 This is his third professional game? Talk about energy. He 0:06:30.680 --> 0:06:33.080 took j h I E down on that second play 0:06:33.160 --> 0:06:36.960 from scrimmage. Then later in the first half he's deep 0:06:37.720 --> 0:06:41.040 in that defensive backfield making a PDS. J Cutler got 0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:43.279 out of the pocket and tried to hit Davante Parker 0:06:43.400 --> 0:06:45.400 up top, and then later he came up with the 0:06:45.480 --> 0:06:50.400 first professional sack. He plays with tremendous energy, and even 0:06:50.480 --> 0:06:53.400 though he's a young guy. Don't you think that some 0:06:53.480 --> 0:06:56.720 of the veterans can pick up off of that vibe? Oh? 0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:59.440 You you rely on the young guys because they bring 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:03.080 that energy, and uh sometimes it has to be harnessed, right, 0:07:03.120 --> 0:07:05.440 But you know, I think he's very instinctive and he's 0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:07.839 very sudden. You know, you talk about that player Ja 0:07:07.960 --> 0:07:09.840 Color getting his you know, I think he was in 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:12.200 coverage and he just wanted to, you know, to press 0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.160 J Coulor to make him have to make a decision. 0:07:14.360 --> 0:07:17.080 And he made the decision, and he came up getting 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:19.040 his first sack, but he made it quickly. And that's 0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.200 you know, if you're going to make a decision, you know, 0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.560 you have to make it in the micro second, right 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:26.840 uh And and he made a great decision. Um. He 0:07:26.880 --> 0:07:29.920 played with tremendous speed. He's very instinctual and you can 0:07:29.960 --> 0:07:32.160 tell he had great coaching in college because he's very 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.400 fundamental as well. He's a great tackler, and he's very emotional. 0:07:35.440 --> 0:07:37.600 I think he's like he can be the emotionally, he 0:07:37.600 --> 0:07:39.480 can be the hype man for his defense going forward. 0:07:39.520 --> 0:07:42.320 Inside the Jets is brought to you by Selective Insurance 0:07:42.480 --> 0:07:46.880 Response is everything. One thing that you talked about before 0:07:46.920 --> 0:07:50.600 we came on Eric tonight is that he's gotta harness 0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:53.440 that sometimes he got a tawny penally there in the 0:07:53.480 --> 0:07:56.880 second half. So there are little things that will continue 0:07:56.920 --> 0:07:59.840 to pick up as he moves forward. Absolutely, going forward, 0:07:59.880 --> 0:08:02.520 I think I'll have a conversation with him taking to 0:08:02.560 --> 0:08:04.800 one of my courses, the art of trash talking. You know, 0:08:04.840 --> 0:08:06.640 it's all about the subtle pokes. You know, you gotta 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:08.520 make sure that you don't get caught. You gotta be 0:08:08.640 --> 0:08:10.520 friends and refs. They'll give you a little longer release. 0:08:10.560 --> 0:08:12.680 But that's something that's gonna come with experience. I know 0:08:12.760 --> 0:08:14.560 Mo can tell you all about that because he talks 0:08:14.560 --> 0:08:17.040 a lot of trash inside of the trenches. But a 0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:18.880 lot of people don't you know that's that's that's not 0:08:18.960 --> 0:08:21.720 really the the you know, the playbook on mode, but 0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:27.680 he gets it into Yeah. Mohammad Wlukerson is a Temple 0:08:27.720 --> 0:08:31.360 football shirt on had the windhom Hamilton's Park Hotel in 0:08:31.440 --> 0:08:34.920 Florida Park, New Jersey, ZEPHI. Robbie Anderson is because you 0:08:34.760 --> 0:08:36.520 know you love the team, because Robbie was to player. 0:08:37.000 --> 0:08:40.920 He wants the Temple. I don't think I knew name 0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.400 was number nine, me and whom shared the same jersey number. Okay, 0:08:44.320 --> 0:08:46.880 but why does he have a Temple shirt on? What's this? Listen? 0:08:46.880 --> 0:08:49.800 We're gonna have time. I don't have time to break 0:08:49.800 --> 0:08:52.640 down Moe's outfit here in a couple of minutes, and 0:08:52.720 --> 0:08:55.440 people at home who are watching on Facebook, they'll be 0:08:55.440 --> 0:08:58.680 able to analyze it. Uh. Last week we had Josh 0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:02.800 McCown on you like his hair? Whatever product he was using. 0:09:03.240 --> 0:09:06.160 We don't know, but I'll tell you. Whatever he's doing 0:09:06.280 --> 0:09:09.720 right now, keep it up. Eighteen of twenty three, he 0:09:10.000 --> 0:09:12.840 entered last Well, you ball your ball when you come 0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:15.880 on this show. That's right. So so brother gnomesy. So 0:09:16.120 --> 0:09:21.600 Josh had the hair. We got the beer. Herbal entsence 0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:25.080 up in the beer, right, you think? So he got 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.160 he gotta do some bears in that beer. Trust trust me. 0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:30.200 How about McCown eighteen of twenty three, Uh, entering last 0:09:30.240 --> 0:09:33.800 week's game, he was completing sixty seven percent of his passes. Well, 0:09:33.880 --> 0:09:39.120 he up that completion percentage a little bit yesterday. Completely 0:09:39.280 --> 0:09:43.200 in control of the offense, and we're seeing John Morton's 0:09:43.280 --> 0:09:46.840 unit continue to develop absolutely and in each week as 0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:49.800 a new wrinkle. I think, you know, with Safaria Jenkins 0:09:49.840 --> 0:09:52.360 coming back, he was able to have more targets and 0:09:52.600 --> 0:09:54.880 you know, sometimes you know, I always call it addition 0:09:54.960 --> 0:09:58.400 box attraction. I make the comparison. And when Calvin Johnson, 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:00.960 you know, left the Lions, how at through Stafford through 0:10:01.000 --> 0:10:03.440 the ball where we're supposed to go. Well, now defenses 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.640 can't really focus on. Okay, let's take this guy out 0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:09.840 because who's the guy. Everybody's the guy? Whoever's the open guy, 0:10:09.920 --> 0:10:11.640 and when when you know the ball is gonna come 0:10:11.679 --> 0:10:13.600 when you get open, you fight to get open all 0:10:13.640 --> 0:10:15.680 the time because you never know. And Josh does a 0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:19.480 great job and getting everybody involved, and you'll the Scott 0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.920 report was it was gonna be Deacon Duck West Coast offense. 0:10:23.040 --> 0:10:26.000 So I think the Dolphins were really, you know, stacking 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.440 the box and trying to play man and man covers 0:10:28.440 --> 0:10:30.440 and that's what Robbie was able to get behind them 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:32.920 when it was covered one, he did what a crafty 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.480 veteran does. He looked the safety off. He sent two 0:10:35.559 --> 0:10:38.079 verticals up, one up to scene one on the outside, 0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.600 knowing that the safety is gonna have to lean over 0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.079 the inside slot guy first and then try and get 0:10:43.120 --> 0:10:45.160 back over the top. And I think people under estimate 0:10:45.240 --> 0:10:46.920 Robbie and his speed and he was able to make 0:10:46.960 --> 0:10:49.160 a big play inside. The Jets is brought to you 0:10:49.240 --> 0:10:53.840 by the fan Duel Fantasy tracker. Have all the fantasy 0:10:54.040 --> 0:10:57.599 that football has to offer. Bart Scott, Robbie Anderson, I 0:10:57.600 --> 0:10:59.400 don't know. We gotta check on that. Robbie Anderson was 0:10:59.400 --> 0:11:03.360 targeted six time Sunday, three receptions, including that career long 0:11:03.440 --> 0:11:06.720 sixty nine yard touchdown. The specier has a lot to 0:11:06.800 --> 0:11:11.359 offer the Jets. What can he do for the offense? 0:11:11.440 --> 0:11:14.680 Now as we move forward by being able to take 0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.280 that top off the defense, what is what our safety 0:11:17.360 --> 0:11:19.320 is going to do now when they see that more 0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.600 and more on film, Well, well now it's on film, right, 0:11:21.679 --> 0:11:23.640 and we have to hold him accountable. He has to 0:11:23.760 --> 0:11:26.600 made sure that he can remain consistent and make sure 0:11:26.679 --> 0:11:28.240 that you know, when he does get open, that he 0:11:28.280 --> 0:11:31.320 makes the defense pay and he opens it up for everybody. 0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:32.880 Whenever you have somebody that can take the top of 0:11:32.920 --> 0:11:36.520 the defense, all it allows guys like Curse or Curly 0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:40.000 or Safarian Jenkins to work the intermediate routes and everything 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.040 isn't always about getting at home run. Sometimes it's great 0:11:43.080 --> 0:11:45.800 to get you know, double or triple as well. And 0:11:46.000 --> 0:11:48.000 Robbie can do that because you can run with his 0:11:48.200 --> 0:11:50.599 with his speed, you can run routes that you you 0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:54.240 typically gonna run with slower players because he can get there. Suddenly, 0:11:54.280 --> 0:11:57.000 you can cut his split down, run speedos and run 0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.320 play action off the off the off the action because 0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:01.520 you know that the corner is going to be asking 0:12:01.559 --> 0:12:03.679 for help or he's going to be playing off so 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.640 now he's got to add coming off and running comebacks 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.520 and and add more routes to to his routry because 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:11.800 now players are just gonna start to to to fall 0:12:11.880 --> 0:12:13.880 off of them and play off, all right, So we're 0:12:13.920 --> 0:12:16.240 off to a fast start here on inside the Jets. 0:12:16.760 --> 0:12:20.679 Coming up momentarily will be the eight four mentioned Mohammed Wolkerson. 0:12:21.000 --> 0:12:25.080 Kevin Mawives entering the ring honor on Sunday, is going 0:12:25.160 --> 0:12:29.080 to call in and we're gonna take your calls. Three seven, 0:12:29.200 --> 0:12:33.320 seven six will be right back, you know. In part 0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.559 Scott and hundreds of Jets ps oh Holder's our hair 0:12:36.600 --> 0:12:39.840 at Vanderbilts Way, thwarts and spirits at the wind of 0:12:39.880 --> 0:12:42.800 Hamiltons Park. Our next segment is brought to you by 0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:45.720 Evan T Bank, the official Community Bank, and the New 0:12:45.760 --> 0:12:48.839 York Jets. Let's bring in it Mohammed Wolkerson, who is 0:12:48.920 --> 0:12:52.560 tied for the most tenure on this young team with 0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:56.240 seven years of experience. He has been seven years already. 0:12:56.480 --> 0:12:58.640 Can you believe it? I remember when this was a 0:12:58.679 --> 0:13:03.000 mini beer. Yeah, now it was fully grown. How did 0:13:03.000 --> 0:13:05.559 it feel now walking inside that locker room and knowing 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:09.960 that you are tied with for the most tenure on 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.679 this team. But I want the younger guys on them 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:16.520 to Now, have you moved all the way that what 0:13:16.640 --> 0:13:18.240 do you sit on the plane for the people out 0:13:18.280 --> 0:13:20.920 there listening. The older you get, the closer you get 0:13:20.920 --> 0:13:23.079 to the front of the plane. And when I got 0:13:23.120 --> 0:13:24.480 to the front seat of the plane, I knew I 0:13:24.480 --> 0:13:26.400 was on my way out out of the plane. But 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:29.280 I'm sure you have I'm sure you're not close to that, 0:13:29.400 --> 0:13:32.320 of course you know, um, but how does that feel? 0:13:32.520 --> 0:13:35.680 The responsibility? Because when you move closer and closer to 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:39.320 the plane, that also symbolizes that people that's behind you 0:13:39.360 --> 0:13:41.840 are looking up to you and the responsibility to lead 0:13:41.880 --> 0:13:46.520 the troops. And you know, losing David Harris, losing Reevers, 0:13:46.840 --> 0:13:49.120 now you're the voice, the person that everybody looks to 0:13:49.240 --> 0:13:51.160 the kind of calm, the truth and look like the 0:13:51.200 --> 0:13:54.079 defense and the truth were calm last week? And how 0:13:54.080 --> 0:13:55.840 did you get that done? Oh? I said this in 0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:57.880 the beginning of the season. You know, once we lost 0:13:57.960 --> 0:14:00.240 David and uh you know also, you know play with 0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.040 a lot of veterans, you know Reeve and you know 0:14:02.160 --> 0:14:06.720 she only poor Mike DeVito. Um, this old fart named 0:14:06.720 --> 0:14:09.679 Bart scott Man you know, so I played, you know, 0:14:09.720 --> 0:14:11.600 played with a lot of older guys who I learned from, 0:14:11.640 --> 0:14:13.240 and um, you know, I soaked a lot of you 0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:15.559 know things from them, you know, soaked up a lot 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:17.360 of things from them. Man, once those guys you know 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:19.240 out of the you know, out of the door, I 0:14:19.280 --> 0:14:20.720 just felt it was time to step up, you know, 0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:22.320 and be more vocal and you know, and be the leader. 0:14:22.320 --> 0:14:24.120 I was supposed to be what your what are your 0:14:24.160 --> 0:14:28.720 memories him? But you know what, for me, it's just 0:14:28.800 --> 0:14:32.040 like it's the funniest thing I ever remember. I remember 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:34.640 the first time that the Briggers show ever met somebody 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:36.320 with longer arms in him and you know, watching them 0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:38.080 to go up with each other, they kind of touched 0:14:38.080 --> 0:14:39.920 each other the first time. He's like, hold up, I'm 0:14:40.000 --> 0:14:41.520 used to having a long gardener hooks, I'm used to 0:14:41.560 --> 0:14:43.600 having long garlmen. It was like watching two guys like 0:14:43.640 --> 0:14:46.360 it's like long reach kind of like come to epiphany, like, man, 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.800 this is this is great. You know, just leaning off 0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.000 of him and you know how athletic he was, but 0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:54.200 also his humility. That's what I always appreciated about him. 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:57.000 He worked hard, he was humble, he always put his 0:14:57.040 --> 0:15:00.600 work in UM and it's been it's and exciting. I 0:15:00.640 --> 0:15:02.560 was excited that they paid him, you know, to be 0:15:02.600 --> 0:15:04.600 honest with you, because you know, he earned it. He 0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:06.880 put in the work, and the production speaks for it. 0:15:06.960 --> 0:15:09.560 So and you know, it's always fun to kind of watch, 0:15:09.640 --> 0:15:13.320 you know, somebody that's young come of age and then 0:15:13.400 --> 0:15:15.160 become a leader and see how they choose to leave, 0:15:15.160 --> 0:15:18.680 because everybody has their own style. He's not the most um, 0:15:18.760 --> 0:15:20.880 you know, voicious person in the world, but he gets 0:15:20.880 --> 0:15:23.160 his point of across because when he speaks, people listen 0:15:23.440 --> 0:15:25.320 because it's you know, with me, I talk all the time, 0:15:25.400 --> 0:15:27.800 so nobody like, I just me talking again. But you know, 0:15:28.160 --> 0:15:30.320 when he speaks, you know, it's usually something that's very 0:15:30.360 --> 0:15:33.760 thought out. What was your message in the locker room 0:15:33.840 --> 0:15:37.360 last week after the defense didn't play up to your 0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:40.320 own standards those first two games, especially against the run. 0:15:40.520 --> 0:15:42.480 But the last two weeks, you know, we've been getting 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.480 challenged by coach Bowls, and you know, I just say, 0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:46.120 you know, as men, you know, we we got to 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:48.320 accept that challenge, you know, and I think we did 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:50.000 that this week. You know, we had a great game plan. 0:15:50.160 --> 0:15:52.760 You know, coaches put it together. Great game plan and 0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:54.400 we had to go out there execute and we did. 0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:56.360 You know, Um, we've been going up and get some 0:15:56.360 --> 0:15:58.520 tough opponents these first couple of weeks, and uh, just 0:15:58.680 --> 0:16:00.760 coming back home yesterday, you know it felt good, you know, 0:16:00.760 --> 0:16:02.000 to be in front of our fans and you know, 0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:04.680 get that win. When did you know at that point 0:16:04.680 --> 0:16:08.320 in that uh, during the ball game. How early did 0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:11.600 you guys know that, hey we got this word rhythm. 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:15.120 We're ready to dominate this game. Just the first couple 0:16:15.200 --> 0:16:17.400 you know, we was you know, everybody was doing their job. 0:16:17.440 --> 0:16:20.240 All eleven guys were doing their job. The first two weeks. 0:16:20.280 --> 0:16:22.320 You know, like I was saying, you know, maybe one 0:16:22.360 --> 0:16:24.320 of two guys not in the gap or something like that, 0:16:24.400 --> 0:16:26.720 you know, some type of miscommunication. But you know we 0:16:26.720 --> 0:16:28.440 started out the game, you know, on a good note. 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:30.120 You know, everybody in the you know, in their gaps 0:16:30.160 --> 0:16:32.760 doing their job, you know, wrapping up, tackling, and uh, 0:16:32.880 --> 0:16:34.680 you know that's what you know, that's what it started. 0:16:34.680 --> 0:16:37.480 And you know we finished. Now you guys have the 0:16:37.560 --> 0:16:40.160 Jacksonville Jaguars coming to town. They put a thumping on 0:16:40.280 --> 0:16:43.640 the on the Baltimore Ravens over in London and I'm 0:16:43.680 --> 0:16:46.520 sure you haven't. You know, it's it's it's Monday, so 0:16:46.560 --> 0:16:48.760 you haven't looked at looked at the film. But just 0:16:48.920 --> 0:16:51.480 understanding who they who they have on their roster. What's 0:16:51.520 --> 0:16:54.400 your first thoughts about, you know, that challenge and how 0:16:54.400 --> 0:16:57.280 it poses to you and you're you and in your room. Um, 0:16:57.320 --> 0:16:59.520 it's gonna be another opponent where they're gonna they feel 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:01.120 like they're gonn come in and run the ball on us. 0:17:01.160 --> 0:17:02.920 You know, Miami thought they would come in, you know 0:17:02.920 --> 0:17:05.399 and all run all over us, and they didn't. You know, 0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:07.720 we stopped it. So it's another opponent. Well, we're good, 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:09.760 two good backs. You know, they got a first rounder 0:17:10.480 --> 0:17:14.080 less you and uh Chris ire who you know. So, um, 0:17:14.119 --> 0:17:15.960 you know we got our hands full with that. But again, 0:17:16.000 --> 0:17:17.479 once we you know, as long as we're standing our 0:17:17.520 --> 0:17:19.919 gaps and you know we wrap up gang tackle, you know, 0:17:20.359 --> 0:17:22.560 we definitely make them one dimension and make them past 0:17:22.560 --> 0:17:25.560 the ball. Explain, explain to the audience and the people listen, 0:17:26.119 --> 0:17:28.480 what's the advantage and the difference on playing at home 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:30.720 opposed to playing on the role with crowd noise and 0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:32.439 things that sort, and how that could have helped you 0:17:32.520 --> 0:17:35.359 yesterday as well, just the energy that you know, the 0:17:35.440 --> 0:17:37.280 fans you know, give us. You know, we feed off 0:17:37.320 --> 0:17:39.119 them just like they feed off us. So you know, 0:17:39.480 --> 0:17:41.159 you on third downs, you know we're getting you know, 0:17:41.200 --> 0:17:43.840 getting the crowd going, and you know everybody's charing and yelling, 0:17:43.880 --> 0:17:46.199 you know, getting the offense you know, uh, you know, 0:17:46.280 --> 0:17:49.280 messed up or missing. You know, they're having miscommunications over there, 0:17:49.280 --> 0:17:51.120 and it helps us out getting off you know, getting 0:17:51.119 --> 0:17:57.080 off off the ball. Um. The difference in the Miami 0:17:57.160 --> 0:18:00.840 game compared to Oakland and Buffalo, you guys winning the 0:18:00.920 --> 0:18:04.200 early games, is it staggeringt to you when you look 0:18:04.200 --> 0:18:06.600 at the numbers they only tried to rush the ball 0:18:06.640 --> 0:18:09.800 sixteen or seventeen times. We're looking at the final stats 0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:12.840 and g I love and carry sixteen yards. Cutler put 0:18:12.840 --> 0:18:17.239 it up forty four times. So does what does that 0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:19.960 tell you? Just tell us, you know, the front seven, 0:18:19.960 --> 0:18:21.920 we're doing our job. You know, as long as we 0:18:21.960 --> 0:18:23.479 stopped in a run, you know, we stopped the rule 0:18:23.480 --> 0:18:25.159 and make like I said, would make the team one dimensional. 0:18:25.240 --> 0:18:27.080 You make them throw the ball, you know, and that's 0:18:27.119 --> 0:18:29.000 what some color you know he tried to do, but 0:18:29.040 --> 0:18:32.119 he wasn't really that successful. What about Coney Eli's edition 0:18:32.520 --> 0:18:34.560 up front to the defensive line. How much have you 0:18:34.640 --> 0:18:37.000 enjoyed working with him? Uh? It's great having him in 0:18:37.040 --> 0:18:38.800 the room. You know. Uh, you know a guy who's 0:18:38.840 --> 0:18:40.720 been playing a lot of balls since he's been in 0:18:40.720 --> 0:18:42.680 the league. Uh, you know, playing in the super Bowl, 0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:44.240 played at the you know, at elite level, at a 0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:46.640
