Speaker 5: We're here, We're here in Spain. What a you know what?

32
00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:21,520
Speaker 5: Actually I thought the flight, the travel would have been

33
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,720
Speaker 5: a little challenging, but it was actually pretty smooth flight.

34
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 7: Yeah, little turbulence, but not bad.

35
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:28,959
Speaker 5: I had a nice little comfortable leg room and I

36
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:29,840
Speaker 5: wasn't able to sleep.

00:01:30,040 --> 00:01:33,360

38
00:01:33,760 --> 00:01:35,720

Speaker 5: at the start of the week. And you know what,

43
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:46,319
Speaker 5: I feel bad in my my my partner in crime smooters.

44
00:01:45,959 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 7: Now here, he's on entry reserve.

45
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 4: I don't feel at all.

46
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 5: I don't know man, next man, I don't feel bad.

47
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:55,080
Speaker 5: He's French anyway, I'm Spanish.

48
00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 2: Are you Spanish?

49
00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:56,280
Speaker 4: No?

50
00:01:56,600 --> 00:01:56,760
Speaker 7: Yeah?

51
00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,760
Speaker 5: I was like, in fact, Jack, in fact fast expect

52
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 5: a home here. But guys, man, this is is exciting.

53
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,520
Speaker 5: You know the first time that the NFL has been

54
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 5: in Spain, Madrid or.

55
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 7: We played in Barcelona.

56
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:16,240
Speaker 5: It was lead in Barcelona, but like being in Madrid, Man,

57
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 5: I got off the plane like ready to go, and

58
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 5: I think we saw the buses come in this morning.

59
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 5: I think with the Dolphins that came in this morning.

60
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 5: So we landed at well like five four am.

61
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 7: But we were ready.

62
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 3: We were looking for our rental car. We couldn't find it. Man,

63
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,240
Speaker 3: But as we were walking across Waits the dolphins, yes,

64
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:34,799
Speaker 3: all the dolphins coming in. Commanders got in this morning.

65
00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 3: What is the When do you guys ever play overseas?

66
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 4: I never played overseas. I got bumped, I got cut

67
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 4: before we played here in twenty sixteen, and I got

68
00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,240
Speaker 4: cut in Houston before we played two two days before,

69
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 4: so that was tough. So never never been overseas. This

70
00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 4: the first time been in Spain though.

71
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:51,079
Speaker 5: So first time in Spain. But I did play when

72
00:02:51,080 --> 00:02:53,480
Speaker 5: I was at the Patriots. We played in London. We

73
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:56,800
Speaker 5: played played, I played, We played the Buccaneers.

74
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,240
Speaker 4: And I thought that was like after you retired, Man.

75
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:05,000
Speaker 5: No, no, that was we played the Buccaneers. Yeah, sorry, Joy,

76
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,359
Speaker 5: But the coolest thing because it was like you walk

77
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,280
Speaker 5: in the stadium, it was like twenty I saw like,

78
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 5: oh I think I saw my dad's jersey, and it

79
00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:15,720
Speaker 5: was like every type of jersey you could think of it,

80
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 5: like Walter Payton, Lawrence Tailor, uh, the new Guys, Terrell Owens,

81
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,839
Speaker 5: Donovan McNabb, and then of course you had our team,

82
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,359
Speaker 5: we were the Patriots, and it was a whole bunch

83
00:03:24,400 --> 00:03:27,000
Speaker 5: of TV twelves in the stands. But it was it

84
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 5: was pretty interesting that it was like really not one

85
00:03:30,880 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 5: fan base like Tampa and the Patriots were playing. You

86
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,280
Speaker 5: thought you would have seen more Patriots Pats fans or

87
00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:36,960
Speaker 5: more Bucks.

88
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 7: Now it was everything in the stadium.

89
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 4: I'm curious though, I think the fan bases in Europe

90
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 4: have gotten a little bit more specific and a little

91
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 4: bit more directed, you know, like when you see these

92
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,760
Speaker 4: games internationally now it's like, you know, when Jacksonville plays here,

93
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:49,120
Speaker 4: there are Jacksonville fans in.

94
00:03:49,080 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 2: The stands away from home.

95
00:03:51,640 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 4: That's absolutely right. So I'm kind of curious to see

96
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,920
Speaker 4: how it distributes tomorrow, Like if it's like he's talking

97
00:03:55,920 --> 00:03:57,920
Speaker 4: about where there's a bunch of different jerseys or people.

98
00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,520
Speaker 4: There are Commanders fans, there are Dolphins there. Uh, kind

99
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 4: of like in droves.

100
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:04,840
Speaker 5: Well, I had a lot of folks from home talking

101
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:07,120
Speaker 5: about they were looking forward to coming up to Spain.

102
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,000
Speaker 5: So I expect a lot of our fans to be

103
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 5: here living, you know, living it up.

104
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,839
Speaker 4: Yeah it's beautiful, man. I've been blown away by Spain

105
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:16,440
Speaker 4: so far. So yeah, it'd be a great opportunity to

106
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,640
Speaker 4: catch a game and see some historic sites.

107
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:22,880
Speaker 2: Also, shout out to there. He is Ryan. He loaded

108
00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 2: up in a huge van.

109
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 5: Yes, he got us here.

110
00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 3: Just we loaded up in a van. He's been driving

111
00:04:29,240 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 3: us around Madrid. Almost had a couple of recks. He

112
00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:34,200
Speaker 3: got us here safe and sound. Now, Yo, we wouldn't.

113
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,880
Speaker 5: Be and he's and that. I was a little nervous

114
00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 5: at first. We had a few incidents.

115
00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:41,640
Speaker 2: We almost killed one person, but everyone's fine.

116
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,719
Speaker 7: I noticed you put your seatbelt onto you.

117
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 2: I was like, nobody else trapped in. I was like, well,

118
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:49,120
Speaker 2: at it in.

119
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,159
Speaker 5: Yeah, I knew. I knew Ryan had it. I knew

120
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 5: I knew he was a guess. I wouldn't worry.

121
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,160
Speaker 3: So before we lock into the Dolphins, let's let's look

122
00:04:56,560 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 3: look back a little bit at what we saw against

123
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,359
Speaker 3: the Lions, which is, do we have to if we

124
00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 3: have to, but we.

125
00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:05,440
Speaker 2: Should probably should.

126
00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 4: Okay, here we go.

127
00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:08,640
Speaker 3: So when you're at a point where, look, let's be honest,

128
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 3: things are not trending well right now, I'm trying to

129
00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,880
Speaker 3: put this in a way that people get frustrated, and

130
00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:15,680
Speaker 3: I understand that.

131
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,080
Speaker 6: But where do you start when things are sort of

132
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:18,720
Speaker 6: broken and you.

133
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,200
Speaker 2: Need to put everything back together again?

134
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think when you look at the defensi side

135
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:23,520
Speaker 4: the football, I feel like that's what you're talking about

136
00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,159
Speaker 4: more because I think when you look at the offensive side,

137
00:05:25,160 --> 00:05:27,280
Speaker 4: there are some things like Marcus did some good things.

138
00:05:27,279 --> 00:05:29,720
Speaker 4: The offensive line played well. I thought Trailing Burks, even

139
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:31,039
Speaker 4: though he didn't make the trip this week, did some

140
00:05:31,080 --> 00:05:32,919
Speaker 4: good things. Kind of there were some flashes from the

141
00:05:32,960 --> 00:05:35,960
Speaker 4: offenses say that's a tenable solution. I think Cliff did

142
00:05:35,960 --> 00:05:38,159
Speaker 4: a good job of kind of finding some solutions on

143
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 4: the defense side of the football. Like it's tough, man,

144
00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:42,839
Speaker 4: it's really really tough. And I think the thing that

145
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,640
Speaker 4: is so frustrating is it's not why you can't point

146
00:05:45,640 --> 00:05:47,320
Speaker 4: to one thing and be like, this is what they're

147
00:05:47,360 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 4: good at. This is the thing that we can kind

148
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 4: of get back to home base with. It's like we

149
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 4: kind of got to look at the whole thing and

150
00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,039
Speaker 4: re evaluate it, which is extremely kind of overwhelming, you

151
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:56,679
Speaker 4: know what I'm saying.

152
00:05:56,760 --> 00:05:59,120
Speaker 5: So and I think you say, what do you begin?

153
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,160
Speaker 5: I think it began as with honesty, and it's what

154
00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,200
Speaker 5: there is a fine line between talking bad about the

155
00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:08,400
Speaker 5: team but being very honest about our situation. Yep, we're

156
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 5: banged up guys. Injury, oh Trey Thomas, that hurt me

157
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,480
Speaker 5: with breaking. I mean, we have so many We can

158
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 5: get into injuries later, but it starts well, we aren't

159
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:20,480
Speaker 5: very good at all. And to Logus's point, there's nothing

160
00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 5: that you're gonna like put your finger on, like this

161
00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 5: guy or this group is not tackling well. And we

162
00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 5: made excuse Stralia we weren't tackling well, but we just

163
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 5: weren't haven't been good.

164
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,320
Speaker 4: And again, like there are some injury things. But I

165
00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:34,200
Speaker 4: think that's the thing, is that like maybe that's where

166
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 4: you get back to home basis, Like can we just

167
00:06:35,720 --> 00:06:38,320
Speaker 4: get back to like the fundamentals of football. Can we

168
00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:40,800
Speaker 4: start fitting runs correctly correctly? Can we make sure we're

169
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 4: tackling correctly in the back end? Can we make sure

170
00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,640
Speaker 4: we're communicating effectively and again there were signs of that

171
00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 4: versus Kansas City specifically in that first half. You say,

172
00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 4: that's that's the kind of Commanders football we're looking for.

173
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:52,800
Speaker 4: We just haven't been able to get back to that.

174
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,800
Speaker 4: So you're just hoping maybe the extra walkthrough is maybe

175
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,720
Speaker 4: some of the practice stuff is helping them get back

176
00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 4: to what you do.

177
00:06:58,279 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 7: And you know what I thought was gonna get us

178
00:06:59,600 --> 00:06:59,960
Speaker 7: back to that.

179
00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:03,120
Speaker 5: I actually believe that coach Witck coming down from the

180
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:07,479
Speaker 5: booth on the sideline would bring that extra communication in

181
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:09,720
Speaker 5: one on one talks because you know, oftentimes and we

182
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,200
Speaker 5: loved it.

183
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:12,320
Speaker 7: Now. We talked about it early in the week, Smooth

184
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 7: and I.

185
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:15,560
Speaker 5: We talked about when Greg ged up was on the sideline,

186
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:18,360
Speaker 5: we could come off It's like, get up, we can

187
00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,880
Speaker 5: handle these guys or runny and we're giving feedback on

188
00:07:20,920 --> 00:07:23,400
Speaker 5: a run game. And it was real interaction with the

189
00:07:23,440 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 5: decordinator making adjustments in real time without going to the

190
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 5: phone and making a call. So I was looking forward

191
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 5: to that, and quite honestly, I don't know what I

192
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:35,640
Speaker 5: haven't felt like we regressed a little bit, so getting

193
00:07:35,640 --> 00:07:38,400
Speaker 5: back to the roots and now we have a potential

194
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:40,520
Speaker 5: new decoordinated one into this week.

195
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:42,600
Speaker 4: And in some ways, like I think it's it's kind

196
00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 4: of unfair to say, oh, like because Joe Junior went

197
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:45,960
Speaker 4: down to the field and it didn't work out.

198
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 2: You got to meet you.

199
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,960
Speaker 5: But he brings energy you see do you see Joe coach?

200
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:49,640
Speaker 7: Wait at practice.

201
00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:51,440
Speaker 4: I guess what I'm saying though, is just just like

202
00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 4: the Detroit Lions are a really good football team. Yeah, right,

203
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 4: And so like him in the booth, him in the field,

204
00:07:57,080 --> 00:07:59,000
Speaker 4: was that going to affect this in a positive or

205
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:02,120
Speaker 4: negative way because of the level of opponent. That's more

206
00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 4: what I'm getting at. So again, like right now, I

207
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,679
Speaker 4: think it's just finding that one thread we can pull,

208
00:08:06,760 --> 00:08:09,600
Speaker 4: that one kind of detail we can hone in on

209
00:08:09,640 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 4: to say this is the reason we get better. And

210
00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,400
Speaker 4: again I think Joe Wood Junior, again, when you look

211
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 4: at the injuries, like like almost called you smoot like

212
00:08:16,600 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 4: Sean was saying, it's a little unfair. It's a little

213
00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:24,040
Speaker 4: unfair to evaluate him this way because of all the

214
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 4: adversity he's faced this year. But again, like you gotta

215
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 4: there are certain expectations in the NFL, and I think

216
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:30,360
Speaker 4: we're starting to feel that.

217
00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:33,000
Speaker 3: So my question to you is, and I was talking

218
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,760
Speaker 3: with Bram about this a couple of days ago, which

219
00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: is when things are kind of broken the way they are,

220
00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:40,600
Speaker 3: and it's kind of this nebulous thing. You can't really

221
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,760
Speaker 3: point to one thing or the other. Where do you start?

222
00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 3: Is it fundamentals, is it being honest and saying let's

223
00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,160
Speaker 3: have an honest conversation about where we are not being

224
00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:51,800
Speaker 3: critical so much as we're being honest. Where do you

225
00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 3: begin when you're just kind of all over the place

226
00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:55,439
Speaker 3: and you don't know where to start.

227
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:57,360
Speaker 5: I think it starts in the locker room. I think

228
00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 5: it starts with your leadership. You know, when you got

229
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:01,360
Speaker 5: guys like Act on the offense side of the ball,

230
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,280
Speaker 5: who has a lot of experience in the league, and

231
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:07,800
Speaker 5: Bobby Wagner is a guy who has tremendous amount of experience.

232
00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:11,120
Speaker 5: It starts with those guys saying, you know what, let

233
00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:14,360
Speaker 5: me pull the defense together, let me put the office together.

234
00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,280
Speaker 5: And then individuals in their expected groups they got to

235
00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 5: step up and say, guys, it's not on the coaches,

236
00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,120
Speaker 5: whether it's Joe Wick calling the plays, dq calling the plays.

237
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:25,239
Speaker 7: We have to execute.

238
00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,840
Speaker 5: We have to say we have to play better and

239
00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:30,800
Speaker 5: it starts for individual pride first, you know, and obviously

240
00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 5: you're gonna hear well coach Quinn, what do you say

241
00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:35,040
Speaker 5: to the team. Obviously he knows that we have a

242
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 5: veteran team. They're not gonna quit on him. It's more

243
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 5: so now the players and you've been in the locker

244
00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 5: rooms logan when I'll be like, hey man, we got

245
00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:45,040
Speaker 5: to do better. I got to cover that better. That's

246
00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 5: on me in the slot to give up that. So

247
00:09:47,600 --> 00:09:50,040
Speaker 5: I think it starts with the to a man being

248
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 5: honest with yourself saying am I doing enough? Am I

249
00:09:53,080 --> 00:09:56,920
Speaker 5: watching enough tape this week? What could have done better?

250
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 5: How can I help my teammates? How do we change?

251
00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:04,120
Speaker 5: And it starts within each individual room and each individual person.

252
00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think like the honesty, I have no notes.

253
00:10:06,559 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 4: I think that's exactly right. And it's like not don't

254
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:11,520
Speaker 4: take the easy way out when you're being honest with yourself.

255
00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:13,520
Speaker 4: Like sometimes you're watching film and the coach you'll be like,

256
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,360
Speaker 4: hey man, that's that's a tough look. I don't if

257
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 4: we got that one, and you got to hold yourself

258
00:10:16,880 --> 00:10:19,320
Speaker 4: account and be like I do have that, I can make.

259
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:20,960
Speaker 5: That I could win around it. I could have went

260
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:21,559
Speaker 5: around that pick.

261
00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:22,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, I could. I could have done that. I could

262
00:10:22,920 --> 00:10:24,800
Speaker 4: have done something differently, put myself in a better spot,

263
00:10:24,800 --> 00:10:27,840
Speaker 4: and really just being like hyper accountable not only to

264
00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 4: yourself but to the team, to the coaches, because again,

265
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,839
Speaker 4: like when you turn the film, it's just everyone's kind

266
00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,680
Speaker 4: of doing their own thing and just hey, honestly, when

267
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:38,000
Speaker 4: you watch the film, if you're whoever you are in

268
00:10:38,040 --> 00:10:40,920
Speaker 4: the defense, is that the best version of myself? And

269
00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 4: I think if we can get that type of communication

270
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,839
Speaker 4: between the coaches and the players and player to player

271
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:47,760
Speaker 4: like Springs is talking about, I get that's to me,

272
00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,959
Speaker 4: the first step in getting this thing turned around.

273
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,640
Speaker 5: There's another aspect to it when you lose it a

274
00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,760
Speaker 5: little bit that I think that that's overlook. Okay, you

275
00:10:55,880 --> 00:11:00,320
Speaker 5: gotta be honest, but you also can't be depressed. You

276
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:03,000
Speaker 5: gotta have some hope, right, How do you do that?

277
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 4: Right?

278
00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 5: You gotta have some hope and that hope saying you know,

279
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:08,720
Speaker 5: maybe it's like, man, we're gonna go out and have dinner.

280
00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:10,679
Speaker 5: We're gonna watch film, but we're gonna go have dinner,

281
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:14,520
Speaker 5: or you know what the civil lining is like Marcus

282
00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:18,160
Speaker 5: has been playing great. No one, no one expected him

283
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 5: to play as many games as he has. But let's

284
00:11:20,679 --> 00:11:24,280
Speaker 5: celebrate him. So you take the small wins or the

285
00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 5: good times or the bond building moments on the plane

286
00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:29,439
Speaker 5: we have when we're joking around on the plane to say,

287
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:32,280
Speaker 5: you know what, we gotta be by Detroit. We don't

288
00:11:32,280 --> 00:11:33,640
Speaker 5: have a good time on this plane. We're gonna go

289
00:11:33,679 --> 00:11:35,679
Speaker 5: to Madrid, but we're gonna take care of business. So

290
00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 5: you gotta be honest. But you can't beat you depressing.

291
00:11:38,559 --> 00:11:41,839
Speaker 3: And also, at some point, as basic as it sounds,

292
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:42,880
Speaker 3: don't you have to remember.

293
00:11:42,679 --> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 2: Hey, this is a game. We're supposed to love this.

294
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:48,520
Speaker 3: I remember Tiger what years ago, and he was struggling exactly.

295
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,560
Speaker 3: He reminded himself, you play golfer lift like you're in

296
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:51,880
Speaker 3: your head.

297
00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:52,560
Speaker 4: You're struggling.

298
00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 3: At some point, let's take a breath and say, go

299
00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:57,680
Speaker 3: out and play with that passion. Because you're playing a

300
00:11:57,720 --> 00:11:59,760
Speaker 3: game for a living, and yes, you're trying to make

301
00:11:59,760 --> 00:12:01,360
Speaker 3: a but this is what you'd love to do.

302
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:02,560
Speaker 2: Go out there and play with that passion.

303
00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:04,120
Speaker 4: I think that's true, But I also think there's something

304
00:12:04,960 --> 00:12:07,320
Speaker 4: there's something encouraging about being honest with yourself, because if

305
00:12:07,320 --> 00:12:08,440
Speaker 4: you just looked at it and said, man, what are

306
00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:10,440
Speaker 4: we gonna do? Like, there's nothing to do. But if

307
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 4: I'm honest and I'm critical of myself, you're like, oh,

308
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:14,720
Speaker 4: there is path forward, there is a there's a positive trend.

309
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 4: And again, like it's about having fun and all those

310
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:20,120
Speaker 4: things you're talking about. But again, like the honesty Again,

311
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 4: it seems so simple, but it cleans up a lot

312
00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:23,959
Speaker 4: of this stuff we're talking about.

313
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,680
Speaker 5: Right, you think it's hard to be honest at times.

314
00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:27,600
Speaker 4: It's really hard to be honest at times as a

315
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:30,080
Speaker 4: player because like it's so much of your identity is

316
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 4: tied to your success in the field. So someone when

317
00:12:32,640 --> 00:12:34,880
Speaker 4: someone says, like you did a poor job there, it's

318
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,840
Speaker 4: like they're kind of insulting you as a human being

319
00:12:36,920 --> 00:12:38,840
Speaker 4: because that's who you are. Yeah, that's who you are.

320
00:12:38,920 --> 00:12:40,840
Speaker 4: So it can be really challenging to kind of step

321
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,440
Speaker 4: back and say, no, that's right, that's good feedback. I

322
00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 4: can handle that, and I can make this football team

323
00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:47,920
Speaker 4: better and I can kind of change the direction that

324
00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:48,600
Speaker 4: this thing is going.

325
00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:50,839
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm gonna be honest to get laos should we

326
00:12:50,840 --> 00:12:52,240
Speaker 5: should scratch Smoot's name out?

327
00:12:52,240 --> 00:12:53,560
Speaker 7: And said Jenkson springs.

328
00:12:53,600 --> 00:12:56,600
Speaker 3: But yeah, we had these, We had these good say

329
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,000
Speaker 3: you know, Jenks and smooth and I already already took.

330
00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:01,000
Speaker 7: A sharpie, yeah okay.

331
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 2: To smooth out. And I just wrote your name in.

332
00:13:02,920 --> 00:13:04,000
Speaker 4: I just wrote your name in.

333
00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:12,400
Speaker 3: I just say so DQ calling the place? Was this

334
00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 3: something that was necessary because now as the head coach,

335
00:13:15,640 --> 00:13:17,320
Speaker 3: you actually have a lot of pressure. Now there's even

336
00:13:17,360 --> 00:13:19,960
Speaker 3: more pressure because all the excuses are on him. You

337
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:22,040
Speaker 3: can't even push it off on Joe Junior say this

338
00:13:22,080 --> 00:13:22,600
Speaker 3: is all on me?

339
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:23,480
Speaker 2: Was that the right call?

340
00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:26,320
Speaker 4: I mean, I think so. I think again, I.

341
00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,160
Speaker 5: Think what signs does that say? Can we start with that?

342
00:13:30,520 --> 00:13:32,120
Speaker 4: So what I would say is I think this is

343
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,000
Speaker 4: this whole thing has been kind of unfair to Joe

344
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 4: wid Junior too because of the injuries, because of I

345
00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,560
Speaker 4: think there's a lot of player accountability that we haven't

346
00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:41,360
Speaker 4: seen the last couple of weeks too, So it's somewhat unfair.

347
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 4: But again, like when you are giving up points at

348
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,080
Speaker 4: an historic rate quite frankly the last three weeks, something

349
00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 4: has to change, right, And so the only thing that

350
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:51,079
Speaker 4: I could see is that I think Dan has a

351
00:13:51,120 --> 00:13:53,200
Speaker 4: lot of confidence in Joe Wood Junior, which is why

352
00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,439
Speaker 4: he's still on the staff. And so Dan's gonna take

353
00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 4: this responsibility. And that's the kind of guy that Dan is.

354
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,560
Speaker 4: He's a me first, accountable guy. Right, we just talked

355
00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:03,000
Speaker 4: about the importance of accountability. He's gonna help out with that.

356
00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:06,520
Speaker 4: And so maybe his experience again because remember Joe Junior

357
00:14:06,559 --> 00:14:08,840
Speaker 4: is a first time play caller, right, so maybe his

358
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:11,440
Speaker 4: experience helps settle this in a little bit and get

359
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:13,680
Speaker 4: this guy help us find that idea we talked about

360
00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 4: that at the top. Maybe this is the thing that

361
00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:18,080
Speaker 4: helps you find that defensive identity, Like maybe we're not

362
00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 4: a man coverage blitzing team anymore. Maybe we're more of

363
00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:20,800
Speaker 4: a cover.

364
00:14:20,640 --> 00:14:23,800
Speaker 7: Three without personnel. Don't even think we can be that, But.

365
00:14:24,000 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. Maybe this is the thing that

366
00:14:25,600 --> 00:14:28,520
Speaker 4: allows that transition to happen more seamlessly and allows that

367
00:14:28,600 --> 00:14:31,440
Speaker 4: communication from coaches to players to really push this thing

368
00:14:31,480 --> 00:14:32,000
Speaker 4: over the gold one.

369
00:14:32,080 --> 00:14:34,080
Speaker 5: And that's interesting because if you look at the game

370
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,360
Speaker 5: last week, Dan Campbell called the plays officer place take

371
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:38,200
Speaker 5: away to play calling.

372
00:14:38,640 --> 00:14:40,400
Speaker 7: He took away to play calling when he worked out

373
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 7: for them, right, right.

374
00:14:41,960 --> 00:14:45,520
Speaker 2: And also, with all due respect, like it's it was

375
00:14:45,640 --> 00:14:47,600
Speaker 2: easy work for you. You know what I mean?

376
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:48,200
Speaker 4: What do you mean?

377
00:14:49,760 --> 00:14:51,560
Speaker 3: I'm just saying this was the week to do it

378
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 3: against the defense's struggling, giving up twenty five points a

379
00:14:53,960 --> 00:14:55,640
Speaker 3: game over its last what three or four games, Like,

380
00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 3: if you're gonna take over, it's easy to make yourself

381
00:14:57,640 --> 00:14:57,960
Speaker 3: look good.

382
00:14:58,000 --> 00:14:59,880
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's right, that's a good point.

383
00:15:00,160 --> 00:15:01,160
Speaker 4: I think.

384
00:15:02,680 --> 00:15:02,920
Speaker 7: We got.

385
00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 5: We just gotta be careful, regardless of it's d Q

386
00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 5: coach with whatever. We are banged up, yes, well, and

387
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:16,120
Speaker 5: in a bad way. And add an insult to injury.

388
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,760
Speaker 5: Come on to Ron, we're missing pain this week. We'll

389
00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 5: have no pain in Spain.

390
00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 2: No pain in Spain.

391
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,280
Speaker 7: No pain in Spain. Take that run with it.

392
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 3: Think of a bumper sticker, no pain in Spain. A

393
00:15:29,640 --> 00:15:33,280
Speaker 3: million dollar right there, it's that logan I became millionaires.

394
00:15:33,560 --> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 3: But you're right, though, you never want your leader of

395
00:15:35,760 --> 00:15:38,200
Speaker 3: the defense acting in that way. You have to carry

396
00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:42,000
Speaker 3: yourself as leader, particularly when your unit is struggling.

397
00:15:42,560 --> 00:15:43,560
Speaker 7: It was a lot of frustration.

398
00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:47,840
Speaker 5: You can obviously this obvious frustration from not only the

399
00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:49,000
Speaker 5: coaches in place.

400
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,720
Speaker 7: Everyone's out. Yes, we are pissed. The fans were pissed.

401
00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 7: We were we're upset, but that's okay.

402
00:15:55,480 --> 00:16:00,800
Speaker 3: So looking forward Dolphins in Madrid, this Doph team, I

403
00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:03,280
Speaker 3: will say I thought they had quit. They have not

404
00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:08,040
Speaker 3: won a couple like mcdona huge win against the Bills

405
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:10,440
Speaker 3: in South and the Bills have owned Miami over the

406
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 3: past years, even two a set as much after the game.

407
00:16:12,440 --> 00:16:14,480
Speaker 3: So this is a team coming in favored of this game,

408
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,520
Speaker 3: playing decent football compared to what we thought were gonna.

409
00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 5: I would have I would have bet my life savings

410
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:22,960
Speaker 5: that there was no way that Buffalo Bills would have

411
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,000
Speaker 5: I mean, would have lost to the Miami Dolphins.

412
00:16:25,120 --> 00:16:25,720
Speaker 2: They just don't.

413
00:16:26,160 --> 00:16:29,080
Speaker 5: After they went into Kansas City and beat them pretty

414
00:16:29,080 --> 00:16:32,440
Speaker 5: good the week before. Ye right, so then they come

415
00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:35,600
Speaker 5: back and lose to the Dolphins. That was absolutely but

416
00:16:35,720 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 5: that goes to show you anygain of Sunday, anyone could win.

417
00:16:39,760 --> 00:16:45,120
Speaker 5: And not to take too much credit away from the Dolphins,

418
00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:48,400
Speaker 5: but the Bills played a very sloppy game, very sloppy.

419
00:16:48,440 --> 00:16:50,600
Speaker 5: They played a very sloppy game. And Kyle Allen was

420
00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:54,040
Speaker 5: not great to a Mason Place, but a teen was

421
00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:54,760
Speaker 5: a monster.

422
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:57,640
Speaker 2: You just get He's one of those dudes that you

423
00:16:57,760 --> 00:16:59,120
Speaker 2: just get in the open field and let him go.

424
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,080
Speaker 5: He's one of those dudes out of pull your hamstring.

425
00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 5: If you turn around and he's running beside and you

426
00:17:03,240 --> 00:17:04,960
Speaker 5: feel like you got chase him. At the last minute,

427
00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 5: you need to take off running when you see that

428
00:17:06,720 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 5: guy coming at you. He's just a special player. He's

429
00:17:09,600 --> 00:17:12,600
Speaker 5: one he will probably be when he's on the field,

430
00:17:12,680 --> 00:17:13,760
Speaker 5: the best player on the field.

431
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:16,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, And I think that's the thing about Miami that's

432
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 4: so interesting is like that that explosiveness always makes them dangerous,

433
00:17:21,800 --> 00:17:25,359
Speaker 4: like wa chain waddle, like their dynamic and lots they

434
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 4: have tight ends on the like that are explosive playmakers.

435
00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:30,040
Speaker 4: Like Greg Doltis was a guy that's on the practice squad.

436
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:31,840
Speaker 4: He's a four or five guy that kind of plays

437
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 4: like a receiver, big body. I mean, that's so. But

438
00:17:37,040 --> 00:17:39,000
Speaker 4: what I'm saying is that they are explosive. They're really

439
00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,639
Speaker 4: well schemed offensively. They really challenge your eye discipline. So

440
00:17:43,040 --> 00:17:45,440
Speaker 4: any given Sunday, like we're talking about, they can throw

441
00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 4: up a game where theyre putting up thirty points, right,

442
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:48,480
Speaker 4: and when you look at the when you watch the

443
00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:50,280
Speaker 4: film in Miami, it's not like they're taking all these

444
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:52,600
Speaker 4: deep shots and they're pushing the football in the middle

445
00:17:52,640 --> 00:17:54,880
Speaker 4: of the field. It's like we're running drift. We're running

446
00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,119
Speaker 4: this ten yard strike route off of play action. We're

447
00:17:57,119 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 4: gonna try and run that five times a game. We're

448
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 4: gonna run a couple of screws. It's a lot of

449
00:18:00,680 --> 00:18:03,119
Speaker 4: horizontal passing attack and then that one time where you're

450
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,239
Speaker 4: kind of lulled to sleep with h over the top

451
00:18:05,320 --> 00:18:07,280
Speaker 4: to waddle right. And I think that's the thing that

452
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,760
Speaker 4: makes them dangerous is like, are they able to consistently

453
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,840
Speaker 4: beat teams week in and week out. They've shown you no,

454
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:17,399
Speaker 4: but they're so darn explosive, and they're maturing as an

455
00:18:17,400 --> 00:18:19,800
Speaker 4: offense each and every week with some of these young playmakers,

456
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:22,400
Speaker 4: especially that offensive line, a lot of young pieces there.

457
00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:25,720
Speaker 4: So it is this really interesting group offensively, and then defensively,

458
00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:28,439
Speaker 4: it's kind of the same thing. It's a little bit

459
00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 4: of this exotic kind of zone pressure, fire, zone replacement,

460
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:37,080
Speaker 4: zone pressures, four man overloads on third down and it

461
00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 4: and you could tell in the Bills game that really

462
00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 4: flummixed Josh Allen, and so I think, flummex I look

463
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 4: at this and I said to myself, like that the

464
00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,120
Speaker 4: team is kind of this weird well schemed, almost finesse group.

465
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:54,080
Speaker 4: But if they get you right, if they peg you

466
00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,560
Speaker 4: right in the game plan, you're in a lot of trouble.

467
00:18:56,680 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 4: And that's the thing that makes them so dangerous to.

468
00:18:59,080 --> 00:19:01,240
Speaker 5: That point, Like when you think about the Dolphins, a

469
00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:05,600
Speaker 5: lot of guys aren't household names. If you're not obviously

470
00:19:05,960 --> 00:19:08,479
Speaker 5: everyone was thinking, oh, we had Tyreek Hill coming in it, right.

471
00:19:09,200 --> 00:19:10,359
Speaker 7: Waddell is probably one.

472
00:19:10,280 --> 00:19:13,800
Speaker 5: Of the most explosives, very explosive, fastest player and a

473
00:19:13,880 --> 00:19:16,560
Speaker 5: team is probably the press or second fastest running back

474
00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 5: in the NFL.

475
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 3: Well, Also, if you think about this defense playing man

476
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 3: against these offensive weapons, it's kind of a terrifying thought.

477
00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,000
Speaker 4: And I think the thing about the man that makes

478
00:19:25,080 --> 00:19:27,360
Speaker 4: me really worried is it's they get in these bunches.

479
00:19:27,400 --> 00:19:30,880
Speaker 5: They use this this motion at that zoom motion where

480
00:19:30,920 --> 00:19:33,119
Speaker 5: the guys full speed's coming to cross the line and

481
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:33,880
Speaker 5: he takes off.

482
00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:36,360
Speaker 7: That's how it started. And deep Over is the first man.

483
00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 4: It is tough, and the and the backfield action is crazy.

484
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 4: So again, like one of the things that I took

485
00:19:41,520 --> 00:19:44,040
Speaker 4: away after watching the Detroit Lions game is in the

486
00:19:44,119 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 4: low red zone like kind of twenty five and in Yep.

487
00:19:46,680 --> 00:19:48,879
Speaker 4: Detroit ran a ton of this drift concept where it's

488
00:19:48,880 --> 00:19:50,640
Speaker 4: heavy play action and then you hit like a little

489
00:19:51,200 --> 00:19:54,960
Speaker 4: over fifteen yard like dig to the receiver. You know

490
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:56,720
Speaker 4: who runs that more than anybody in the NFL The

491
00:19:56,880 --> 00:19:59,600
Speaker 4: Dolphin Dolphins, and they're gonna run the absolute dog out

492
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,800
Speaker 4: of that. So we got to have a solution where

493
00:20:01,800 --> 00:20:04,200
Speaker 4: we're are we disciplined with our eyes? Are we seeing

494
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:04,720
Speaker 4: our fits?

495
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:05,040
Speaker 7: Like?

496
00:20:05,119 --> 00:20:06,879
Speaker 4: That's one thing that's been an issue for the defense

497
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:09,720
Speaker 4: this entire season is like, if I'm a coverage player, first,

498
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,720
Speaker 4: I have to be in coverage. I have to be

499
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,600
Speaker 4: second secondary run fit player right right, And we need

500
00:20:14,680 --> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 4: to be much more disciplined in that regard because this

501
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:19,440
Speaker 4: team is going to challenge your eyes every single time

502
00:20:19,480 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 4: with backfield action. We got to make sure we're on it.

503
00:20:21,280 --> 00:20:23,320
Speaker 5: And then on the defense side of the ball, they

504
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 5: got a couple of guys in the back end that

505
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 5: can play. You might I was about to say household

506
00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,680
Speaker 5: and manka Fitzpatrick as a dog right like when he

507
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:33,600
Speaker 5: was at Pittsburgh. Everyone knows obviously at Alabama he was

508
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 5: amazing and sure or sure, what's that thing?

509
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:36,000
Speaker 1: Is?

510
00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,639
Speaker 7: Rashel Douglas Like he can cover man. He's one of

511
00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 7: those guys.

512
00:20:39,640 --> 00:20:42,520
Speaker 5: You know, I think, you know last week he might

513
00:20:42,600 --> 00:20:45,680
Speaker 5: have had given up a testdown to Coleman on a sideline.

514
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:46,240
Speaker 7: But he can play.

515
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,960
Speaker 3: He can make the top ten pass defense. Yeah, that's

516
00:20:48,960 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 3: the one thing they do well.

517
00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:52,199
Speaker 4: They people can run on a ton.

518
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 5: Yeah, so why are we gonna throw the twenty six

519
00:20:55,600 --> 00:20:56,000
Speaker 5: in the league?

520
00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:56,199
Speaker 4: I think?

521
00:20:56,200 --> 00:20:59,280
Speaker 7: Guess right, but they're athletic.

522
00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:01,199
Speaker 4: Did you just like blacked out right there? Twenty six

523
00:21:01,280 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 4: Lee against the run?

524
00:21:02,040 --> 00:21:05,440
Speaker 5: But and he was like, yeah, yeah, because they can't

525
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,359
Speaker 5: stop it running as I was saying, but like they

526
00:21:08,480 --> 00:21:12,120
Speaker 5: got some athletic guys that, yeah, that can be problems.

527
00:21:12,160 --> 00:21:15,320
Speaker 5: And you know, I look, I like the fact that

528
00:21:15,560 --> 00:21:18,600
Speaker 5: Marcus is his experience against defenses like this, so Marcus

529
00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,760
Speaker 5: is not like, well, even though they got they got

530
00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:24,320
Speaker 5: Josh Allen, so you know, maybe maybe, but.

531
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:26,080
Speaker 4: I think I think, I think if you're looking, like

532
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,560
Speaker 4: why they got Josh Allen? Like Josh Allen, the game

533
00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:30,880
Speaker 4: flow got crazy really early because they had a fumble early,

534
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:32,600
Speaker 4: that interception in the red zone he got down.

535
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:34,320
Speaker 7: They were down sixteen, and so what do we.

536
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:36,160
Speaker 4: Gotta do when we're down by sixteen points? We gotta

537
00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:37,639
Speaker 4: throw the ball a ton, right, So I think in

538
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 4: a perfect world for the Washington Commanders run you want

539
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:42,320
Speaker 4: to run the football. Right When you look at this

540
00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 4: defensive line for the Dolphins, right, Kenneth Grant, Jordan Phillips,

541
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:51,280
Speaker 4: Zeke Biggers. They're all really talented guys, but they're young

542
00:21:51,520 --> 00:21:53,760
Speaker 4: players and you see them get out of gaps. I

543
00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:55,280
Speaker 4: think we can run the football a little bit, and

544
00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,679
Speaker 4: if our defense can keep a cap on what they

545
00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,560
Speaker 4: do offensively, because the Dolphins will cap themselves wolves right,

546
00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,720
Speaker 4: they're so there's such a game plan offense, there's so

547
00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:06,520
Speaker 4: game plan specific that sometimes they can't get out of

548
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,400
Speaker 4: their own way and they don't put up big scoring differentials.

549
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:12,360
Speaker 4: So if we can just keep it across us tackle right,

550
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 4: have to tackle, and we can possess the football offensive,

551
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:15,760
Speaker 4: we've got a shot.

552
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 5: And at last point, I think in the last few weeks,

553
00:22:19,160 --> 00:22:23,520
Speaker 5: I think, to a it's probably the worst quarterback we've

554
00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:24,640
Speaker 5: seen in the last.

555
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:26,120
Speaker 4: Four or five fair assessment.

556
00:22:26,320 --> 00:22:28,800
Speaker 5: So that gives us a chance, That gives us to

557
00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:32,960
Speaker 5: say it is a bad player, right, the best assessment

558
00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:34,880

Speaker 3: Tickets to go first three?

567
00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:05,840
Speaker 7: We could do it?

568
00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,520
Speaker 4: How about that for me?

569
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,280
Speaker 2: I mean, I mean whatever you'd like. How about that?

570
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:12,040
Speaker 2: It's Madrid.

571
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 5: Well, the number one, you're coming over to Spain and

572
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:19,200
Speaker 5: you're playing the Dolphins. Looking on the schedule, this was

573
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 5: like we can beat the Dolphins until last week when

574
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:22,479
Speaker 5: they'd been Buffalo.

575
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,000
Speaker 7: I still believe that we're a better team.

576
00:23:25,160 --> 00:23:27,960
Speaker 5: Although we injured, I think we're a better team in

577
00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:29,760
Speaker 5: the Dolphins, and I think if the guys show up,

578
00:23:30,680 --> 00:23:32,879
Speaker 5: we should win this game. I still think we're a

579
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,480
Speaker 5: better team. I believe that Number two, I'm interested in

580
00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:39,320
Speaker 5: seeing coach Quinn is now on the defensive coordinator.

581
00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:41,600
Speaker 7: Is that going to make a difference. I was pretty

582
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,119
Speaker 7: excited about Joe.

583
00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:45,359
Speaker 5: Winn coming to the sideline that didn't change because our

584
00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 5: personally didn't really change.

585
00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:48,560
Speaker 7: But maybe DQ see something a little different.

586
00:23:48,680 --> 00:23:52,199
Speaker 5: Logan you said his experience and being a play call

587
00:23:52,320 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 5: him they give us an added boost. So I want

588
00:23:54,400 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 5: to see what coach q DQ, And then I want

589
00:23:57,320 --> 00:24:00,720
Speaker 5: to see how we navigate all these different injuries. Obviously

590
00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,639
Speaker 5: we lost it in another corner Trey Thomas, but we

591
00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:06,960
Speaker 5: got you know, Jonathan Jones gonna be back for the week.

592
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,359
Speaker 4: We don't know, so it's really because we're recording this

593
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 4: on Tuesday, so we don't know, so.

594
00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,399
Speaker 2: We don't know who's gonna be in the back end.

595
00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 5: But it's gonna be interesting to see how we navigate

596
00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,240
Speaker 5: if Mikey still plays in the slide or if he

597
00:24:18,320 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 5: goes outside, uh BENIGNI if he's playing inside, because remember

598
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,119
Speaker 5: he was inside last year and he played great and

599
00:24:24,240 --> 00:24:26,840
Speaker 5: Mikey was outside. So it's gonna be interesting to see

600
00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:29,800
Speaker 5: how we navigate all the challenges on both sides of

601
00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:32,720
Speaker 5: the ball, you know, because our offense has not been explosive.

602
00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 5: But I'm intering shit and seeing next man up and

603
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:39,120
Speaker 5: how we do Yeah.

604
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:40,760
Speaker 4: So this is the things to watch, right, So what

605
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 4: I would say our offensive line versus their defensive line.

606
00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:45,160
Speaker 4: I think, like I said, that's a young group up front,

607
00:24:45,359 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 4: and our group's starting to galvanize a little bit. Sam

608
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:48,560
Speaker 4: cos he's been in the lineup for a couple of

609
00:24:48,560 --> 00:24:51,159
Speaker 4: weeks now playing better. Chris Paul Armutunsel is starting to

610
00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 4: work that chemistry, and I think we'll be getting these

611
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,919
Speaker 4: thirteen and twelve personnel sets. We can run the ball. Well,

612
00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,639
Speaker 4: you want a big boy these dudes, I mean I

613
00:24:57,680 --> 00:24:59,480
Speaker 4: think you can. I think they are one of the

614
00:24:59,520 --> 00:25:01,840
Speaker 4: things about Miami Dolphins, and it's been their reputation, but

615
00:25:01,920 --> 00:25:04,880
Speaker 4: it shows up on film is they're not overly physical

616
00:25:05,040 --> 00:25:07,800
Speaker 4: in the front, offensively or defensively. Right, they're trying to

617
00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:10,919
Speaker 4: do that. Then you know they draft Kenneth Grant excuse

618
00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 4: me from Michigan. He's you know, sixty six, yes, three

619
00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:16,960
Speaker 4: hundred and forty pounds, Like they want to add size.

620
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 4: But like again, with size, there has to become like

621
00:25:19,160 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 4: a nuance and a technical acumen he hasn't shown yet.

622
00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:24,320
Speaker 4: So let's run at them. Let's make sure that they

623
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:26,080
Speaker 4: fit the gaps that way they're supposed to fit, and

624
00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 4: let's big body them a little bit. So that's something

625
00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:29,000
Speaker 4: I would say is excellent.

626
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,520
Speaker 7: Oh you're afraid today might pressure us?

627
00:25:30,560 --> 00:25:31,680
Speaker 4: Though with that they might.

628
00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,800
Speaker 5: I mean, I think that's because we got a unique

629
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,760
Speaker 5: situation where we don't have in explosive guy that can

630
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 5: get down film.

631
00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 4: So do we need an explosive guy or do we

632
00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:41,359
Speaker 4: just need a well designed plaction pass game. Because I

633
00:25:41,400 --> 00:25:43,119
Speaker 4: look at Ben Sinnett, I look at zach Ertz, and

634
00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,639
Speaker 4: right now I think they're two because the injuries on

635
00:25:45,680 --> 00:25:47,399
Speaker 4: the perimeter, they're two of the more explosive pieces of

636
00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:49,120
Speaker 4: the offense. So let's get them on the field. Let's

637
00:25:49,160 --> 00:25:52,560
Speaker 4: use formation to create our advantage. So that's my second

638
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:54,280
Speaker 4: thing is watch out for the tight ends in this

639
00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:56,480
Speaker 4: gotchup right, And again that's a little bit on brand

640
00:25:56,560 --> 00:25:59,159
Speaker 4: for me, still something I believe, right, I think they

641
00:25:59,240 --> 00:26:02,200
Speaker 4: can win these We've got playmakers there and again without

642
00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:04,320
Speaker 4: trailing burks in the lineup. Let's let's see what we

643
00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:06,399
Speaker 4: got in terms of playmakers. Then defensively, I'm going to

644
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:09,600
Speaker 4: lean into the Joe, into the Dan quick the experience

645
00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:12,680
Speaker 4: of Dan Quinn. Right, can you get guys locked in,

646
00:26:12,760 --> 00:26:16,440
Speaker 4: because again, this offense is they really rely on you

647
00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:18,800
Speaker 4: being out of position, right, that's what they rely on.

648
00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 4: First and foremost they're just everything they're doing is try

649
00:26:21,480 --> 00:26:23,159
Speaker 4: to move you off the spot and get you to

650
00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,080
Speaker 4: fit something you're not supposed to fit. Can you be disciplined,

651
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,879
Speaker 4: be where you're supposed to because if you can do that,

652
00:26:28,400 --> 00:26:31,080
Speaker 4: they can't drive the length of the field that way right,

653
00:26:31,200 --> 00:26:34,160
Speaker 4: They're not going to be able to sustain that production.

654
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:37,000
Speaker 4: So be where you're supposed to be. Defensively, don't fall

655
00:26:37,080 --> 00:26:39,560
Speaker 4: for the banana and the tail five antenna. I think

656
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,280
Speaker 4: those are my three wings to keep an eye.

657
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:43,000
Speaker 5: I think we're in agreement. We both lean in and

658
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:45,680
Speaker 5: and see what Dan does coordinated this week.

659
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 3: The only thing I would add is I think it's

660
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:49,000
Speaker 3: important for this team to get off to a quick start.

661
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 4: I guess when we start, we start with a slow

662
00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:54,400
Speaker 4: one fast one Yeah, real fast, real fast.

663
00:26:54,440 --> 00:26:56,240
Speaker 3: And it also plays into let's run the ball. When

664
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,040
Speaker 3: you're playing from behind, you obviously have a hard time

665
00:26:58,119 --> 00:26:58,879
Speaker 3: establishing the run.

666
00:26:58,960 --> 00:27:01,000
Speaker 4: Let's get let's let's be are on third down two.

667
00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:03,080
Speaker 5: You know, I think that if you win first down,

668
00:27:03,119 --> 00:27:05,720
Speaker 5: if you have a strong first down three four yards

669
00:27:05,800 --> 00:27:08,160
Speaker 5: and that makes third or second and short or second

670
00:27:08,200 --> 00:27:10,600
Speaker 5: and seventh or less leads to a third and short

671
00:27:10,840 --> 00:27:13,120
Speaker 5: so we can win. We gotta win first down absolutely

672
00:27:13,160 --> 00:27:14,040
Speaker 5: before we let Logan go.

673
00:27:14,320 --> 00:27:17,359

692
00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,840

693
00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 8: R was Ransom went over when we sat on the

694
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,679
Speaker 8: plane for forty five minutes before they even let us

695
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 8: off the plane. Yeah, we should get to the rental

696
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:23,399
Speaker 8: car place when our crup place doesn't get open. We

697
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:26,560
Speaker 8: don't know how to get to floor zero whatever floor

698
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:31,240
Speaker 8: zero is got negative floors here? Yeah, minus one minus two,

699
00:28:31,359 --> 00:28:31,840
Speaker 8: that's a thing.

700
00:28:32,080 --> 00:28:32,640
Speaker 2: Ad blue.

701
00:28:32,960 --> 00:28:34,600
Speaker 7: You can ghet minus one on the elevator.

702
00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:35,720
Speaker 4: A blue.

703
00:28:35,920 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 7: The two different fuel system was interesting something.

704
00:28:39,520 --> 00:28:40,800
Speaker 3: And then we're sitting there and then all of a

705
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:42,680
Speaker 3: sudden shown out of noise like jinks, and I hear

706
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:44,680
Speaker 3: the crumpling of this plastic bag and it's just a

707
00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:45,600
Speaker 3: bunch of gummy worms.

708
00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:51,600
Speaker 5: Make us frin. We we had coffee and gummy bears

709
00:28:51,640 --> 00:28:57,320
Speaker 5: this morning. That's why I'm probably so energy because of

710
00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:57,720
Speaker 5: the can.

711
00:28:57,840 --> 00:29:00,400
Speaker 2: Then you put it away and I hear the crumple. Later, Hey, man,

712
00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:02,960
Speaker 2: have some more. I was like, all right, let's go.

713
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:05,600
Speaker 5: Jax was like trying to be polite this morning. I

714
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,120
Speaker 5: opened up a bag. I got this big bag of candy,

715
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,000
Speaker 5: and he goes take one little.

716
00:29:10,120 --> 00:29:11,400
Speaker 2: First of all, I don't want to be greedy.

717
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:12,600
Speaker 7: I didn't want to agreed.

718
00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:14,160
Speaker 5: I didn't want him to dig too deep in my

719
00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 5: bag because he didn't look like I just want to like.

720
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,000
Speaker 7: I didn't want his hand always, so I was gonna

721
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 7: pour some out for him. But he was polite. He did,

722
00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,680
Speaker 7: he did a good job. And I give him some more.

723
00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:24,720
Speaker 8: But he was one of those kids decided there is

724
00:29:24,800 --> 00:29:26,960
Speaker 8: a way you're allowed to touch the gummy words.

725
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,880
Speaker 7: If I didn't know what.

726
00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,160
Speaker 5: Hand has been on a plane, he could have been

727
00:29:31,240 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 5: deep in my bag. I didn't want his hands all

728
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 5: I didn't eat and I candy for I could test

729
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 5: everything for the week to what.

730
00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:38,719
Speaker 3: I liked the most, I would I would have gave

731
00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:42,239
Speaker 3: him the bag, rifling through him and like, I think

732
00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 3: I'll take this.

733
00:29:43,000 --> 00:29:46,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, So here we are. First thoughts. I mean,

734
00:29:46,560 --> 00:29:48,040
Speaker 2: I know this is not exactly where we want the

735
00:29:48,080 --> 00:29:49,720
Speaker 2: team to be, but the fact that we're here is

736
00:29:49,880 --> 00:29:50,800
Speaker 2: actually very exciting.

737
00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:53,880
Speaker 8: Yeah, I actually this, this is at the right time.

738
00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:56,320
Speaker 8: I think let's just get the air out of the room.

739
00:29:57,040 --> 00:29:59,640
Speaker 8: You know, we're we're in Spain. I think everybody, and

740
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,720
Speaker 8: I be, everybody needs to have a nice time this week.

741
00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:04,320
Speaker 7: Everybody needs to go on vacation.

742
00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:06,440
Speaker 8: Everybody needs to go on vacation. And I think it

743
00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:07,880
Speaker 8: meets the team too. I mean, I know there's a

744
00:30:07,920 --> 00:30:10,000
Speaker 8: lot of heavy news that came out Yesterday's some changes

745
00:30:10,040 --> 00:30:12,480
Speaker 8: that were made. The record's not where anybody wants it

746
00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,440
Speaker 8: to be, you know what, Like you were in Madrid

747
00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,280
Speaker 8: in an Irish bar, drink like an irishman in Spain

748
00:30:20,160 --> 00:30:22,720
Speaker 8: have like let's live a little bit this week, you know,

749
00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 8: Like I think the team needs to go have some

750
00:30:25,400 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 8: iberiic o ham, you know, go see the Prato, walk around,

751
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 8: experience Spain and get football off the brain a little

752
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:34,880
Speaker 8: bit because they know what they're doing. It's just a

753
00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 8: matter of I think everyone needs to take a breath,

754
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,600
Speaker 8: and this is the right place to be to take

755
00:30:38,600 --> 00:30:40,200
Speaker 8: a breath. It's a unique experience.

756
00:30:40,280 --> 00:30:42,320
Speaker 5: That's an interesting point, like because when you're back at

757
00:30:42,400 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 5: home and your player, especially at home on DC and.

758
00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,640
Speaker 7: Our market, there's a lot of noise, your noise.

759
00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:50,560
Speaker 5: You're just going to hear that noise this week, you're right,

760
00:30:50,760 --> 00:30:52,479
Speaker 5: So you get to walk around and enjoy the coffee

761
00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,400
Speaker 5: to wine, you know, the restaurants, and just kind of

762
00:30:55,560 --> 00:30:58,400
Speaker 5: just focus on the task at hand, which is to

763
00:30:58,480 --> 00:31:00,600
Speaker 5: come over here to win again.

764
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:02,880
Speaker 7: Obviously, but you gotta be focused.

765
00:31:02,880 --> 00:31:04,920
Speaker 5: You gotta be honest, like we talked about the previous segment,

766
00:31:05,320 --> 00:31:07,600
Speaker 5: but it is a chance to kind of let your

767
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:08,640
Speaker 5: hand out a little bit and.

768
00:31:08,680 --> 00:31:09,120
Speaker 7: Focus on it.

769
00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:11,720
Speaker 8: I think what's done is done right. And like, listen,

770
00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,280
Speaker 8: the Dolphins, I heard you talking about it. Earlier, like

771
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:16,520
Speaker 8: their season's gotten blown up too, for a lot of

772
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,280
Speaker 8: different reasons. They've got their own issues of what's been

773
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:22,040
Speaker 8: going on there. They traded off a star player, their

774
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:24,880
Speaker 8: GM was fired, their coach is still here, there's a

775
00:31:24,920 --> 00:31:27,080
Speaker 8: lot of questions about the future of their quarterback, where

776
00:31:27,080 --> 00:31:28,720
Speaker 8: they'll be at the organization, be on this yair And

777
00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:30,640
Speaker 8: you know what they did last week? They went and

778
00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:32,480
Speaker 8: beat the Buffalo Bills, and their coach drove around to

779
00:31:32,560 --> 00:31:34,920
Speaker 8: some bar in Miami and trolled the Bills. Fits is crazy,

780
00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:38,680
Speaker 8: So like, you know what, Like why can't Washington circle

781
00:31:38,720 --> 00:31:40,720
Speaker 8: the wagons a little? Why you let some of the

782
00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,480
Speaker 8: steam out have a good time in Spain, turn around

783
00:31:43,520 --> 00:31:44,960
Speaker 8: and play a competitive game Sunday.

784
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:45,480
Speaker 7: Again, that's a.

785
00:31:45,520 --> 00:31:48,560
Speaker 5: Very interesting point with two teams the same record but

786
00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 5: totally different reasons.

787
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:50,560
Speaker 7: Why we here.

788
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 5: Obviously the Dolphins have a lot of term We have

789
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,480
Speaker 5: a franchise quarterback. We would all agree that Jayden is

790
00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 5: our guy, and if it wasn't for injuries, we wouldn't

791
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:03,400
Speaker 5: be in this spot. But this feels just feels bad.

792
00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,040
Speaker 5: All you know that we had the same record as

793
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,840
Speaker 5: a Dolphins. This didn't seem right. You made a really

794
00:32:07,880 --> 00:32:08,480
Speaker 5: interesting point.

795
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:10,120
Speaker 3: I think it goes hand in hand maybe with d

796
00:32:10,320 --> 00:32:13,160
Speaker 3: Q calling defensive places this week, which is not only

797
00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:14,760
Speaker 3: do you have a change of scenery, you have a

798
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:17,880
Speaker 3: different voice. Not to take anything away from Joe Witt,

799
00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 3: because I don't know how much the defense will be different,

800
00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 3: but how much can that help potentially win? All Right,

801
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 3: we're in a rut. Now we have a new voice,

802
00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,640
Speaker 3: and at least for this week, we're completely in a

803
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,960
Speaker 3: different place. It's almost this is a good time for

804
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:30,600
Speaker 3: a reset potentially.

805
00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:33,520
Speaker 2: Or no, I think so.

806
00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:34,480
Speaker 7: I think so.

807
00:32:34,640 --> 00:32:37,840
Speaker 5: We talked about coach Quinn calling the game. I mean

808
00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:40,160
Speaker 5: Dan Campbell calling the games last week for Detroit, and

809
00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:42,960
Speaker 5: obviously they have much talented team and the offense was

810
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:45,320
Speaker 5: very good against a very bad defense. But I do

811
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,800
Speaker 5: think there's a voice, you know, when you hear coach

812
00:32:49,000 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 5: walks in the room up. I know there was twice

813
00:32:51,080 --> 00:32:53,440
Speaker 5: when I was in Washington when Coach Giffs walked in

814
00:32:53,480 --> 00:32:53,800
Speaker 5: the room.

815
00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 7: And when Coach Giffs came in the room, it was

816
00:32:57,000 --> 00:33:00,720
Speaker 7: like that the coach it's different.

817
00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,840
Speaker 5: So when coach went and his experience right, So you

818
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,160
Speaker 5: got to think about it, right coach with I love

819
00:33:07,240 --> 00:33:09,640
Speaker 5: him to death, he's he's a great coach and he

820
00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:13,320
Speaker 5: has a good finger on on on a pulse. But

821
00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:17,800
Speaker 5: coach Quinn's experience. You know, he's been he took a

822
00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:20,640
Speaker 5: Super Bowl team see and he didn't play a lot

823
00:33:20,680 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 5: of men. They play zone. So it's gonna be interesting

824
00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:24,600
Speaker 5: if he goes from hey, we've been playing showing a

825
00:33:24,680 --> 00:33:26,480
Speaker 5: lot of men, do we play more zone?

826
00:33:26,520 --> 00:33:26,920
Speaker 4: This week?

827
00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:31,160
Speaker 5: He's facing the uphill battle even though he has experience,

828
00:33:31,240 --> 00:33:35,080
Speaker 5: because obviously losing trade this week was devastating. So it's

829
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:36,840
Speaker 5: a lot of moving parts in the back end that

830
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,680
Speaker 5: he's gonna have to navigate. But who better would you

831
00:33:39,720 --> 00:33:43,120
Speaker 5: want to navigate that than the experienced coordinator saying I

832
00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 5: got these guys. You know, if Jones plays, I can

833
00:33:46,520 --> 00:33:51,080
Speaker 5: put him out here. I can possibly move Ignogy back

834
00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,680
Speaker 5: into the slide, or I can you know, Mikey, I

835
00:33:53,760 --> 00:33:57,840
Speaker 5: can move here around. So there's there's this experience that's

836
00:33:57,920 --> 00:33:59,840
Speaker 5: needed and I think could be welcomed by those guys

837
00:34:00,040 --> 00:34:01,760
Speaker 5: also to like, I think this is a good week.

838
00:34:01,840 --> 00:34:05,120
Speaker 8: Dan Quinn since he's been here, has really valued going away,

839
00:34:05,240 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 8: whether it was going away to New York last year

840
00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:08,759
Speaker 8: for a week or going to Miami for a week

841
00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,080
Speaker 8: in the preseason or going to Arizona for a week

842
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:12,799
Speaker 8: after the Bengals game.

843
00:34:13,200 --> 00:34:14,200
Speaker 7: And they had a.

844
00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:16,400
Speaker 8: Short version of that in the preseason with New England,

845
00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,480
Speaker 8: but they haven't had a trip like this. And you know,

846
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:23,000
Speaker 8: dan Quinn is taking on another responsibility. I think it's

847
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:25,719
Speaker 8: a natural thing to do. If things don't work, things

848
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,360
Speaker 8: do have to change. It's just a natural progression in

849
00:34:28,440 --> 00:34:30,719
Speaker 8: this sport. I don't really actually think it's that much

850
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:32,879
Speaker 8: of an indictment of Joe Witt. It is more about

851
00:34:32,920 --> 00:34:35,040
Speaker 8: things just aren't going right. And you could probably talk

852
00:34:35,120 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 8: more about what's going on in general about it. Injuries

853
00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,040
Speaker 8: are part of it. Maybe there's some scheme issues that

854
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:42,000
Speaker 8: need to be addressed. There's a number of different things

855
00:34:42,040 --> 00:34:44,320
Speaker 8: that are going on that led to all of this,

856
00:34:44,520 --> 00:34:47,400
Speaker 8: but something had to change. Dan Quinn is showing leadership.

857
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:49,800
Speaker 8: He stood up and said, fine, put it on my shoulders.

858
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:53,000
Speaker 8: It ultimately is my responsibility. So his week might be

859
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,800
Speaker 8: a little bit different than everyone else's, but I know,

860
00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:57,440
Speaker 8: deep down for him, he knows that this week can

861
00:34:57,480 --> 00:35:00,400
Speaker 8: be invaluable to keep the team together, go out, have

862
00:35:00,600 --> 00:35:04,320
Speaker 8: some fun, grow together, become the brotherhood, make some memories

863
00:35:04,360 --> 00:35:06,719
Speaker 8: with one another. You'll show up on Sunday and you

864
00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:09,439
Speaker 8: know what, Like, I don't think Bobby Wagner or Zach

865
00:35:09,680 --> 00:35:12,800
Speaker 8: Ertz or Jonathan Jones or Laremie Tunzel or any of

866
00:35:12,840 --> 00:35:15,279
Speaker 8: these guys are gonna forget how to play extremely high

867
00:35:15,320 --> 00:35:18,440
Speaker 8: competitive football. And I do expect at some point, and

868
00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 8: I've been waiting for this for a couple of weeks.

869
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,800
Speaker 8: This is gonna flip around. This is not gonna continue

870
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:25,880
Speaker 8: this way. They're a little they're too beat up. I'd

871
00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,440
Speaker 8: say we wouldn't have a team if it CONTs. That's right,

872
00:35:29,560 --> 00:35:31,960
Speaker 8: but in general, there's still too much experience on this

873
00:35:32,080 --> 00:35:34,520
Speaker 8: team to have the results that they've been having, as

874
00:35:34,560 --> 00:35:36,960
Speaker 8: lopsided as they've been. So I actually think this week

875
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:39,600
Speaker 8: has come at the right time for everybody to take

876
00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:42,759
Speaker 8: a breath, go out, have fun, make some memories, go

877
00:35:42,880 --> 00:35:45,520
Speaker 8: play a football game. Be looser than you've been. Stop

878
00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:47,560
Speaker 8: sweating all the small stuff. I know these I know

879
00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:48,840
Speaker 8: what's going on here, and you saw it at the

880
00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:50,360
Speaker 8: end of the second quarter of the Lions game. The

881
00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:54,680
Speaker 8: frustration came out because they're trying hard. They're trying really hard.

882
00:35:54,920 --> 00:35:57,480
Speaker 8: It's not happening, and all of a sudden, there's a

883
00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,919
Speaker 8: lot of pride that is spilling out and a team

884
00:36:00,239 --> 00:36:03,000
Speaker 8: who probably had a lot of motivation because you ended

885
00:36:03,000 --> 00:36:05,239
Speaker 8: their season a year ago, and you could tell her

886
00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,279
Speaker 8: a lot of people talking back and forth. They're taking

887
00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 8: advantage of a team that is too injured and currently

888
00:36:10,640 --> 00:36:12,919
Speaker 8: not playing particularly well on one side of the ball.

889
00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:14,279
Speaker 2: And you know what you saw.

890
00:36:14,480 --> 00:36:17,480
Speaker 5: What the after effect of that was that Jinks You

891
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,080
Speaker 5: said it was like a college team getting beat.

892
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:21,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's I was.

893
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 3: You know, it's rare in the NFL when you see

894
00:36:24,160 --> 00:36:27,160
Speaker 3: one NFL team toying with another. That's just something you

895
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,920
Speaker 3: don't even when you're beating up on another team. You

896
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 3: rarely see another NFL team calling its own shot, which

897
00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,880
Speaker 3: sort of speaks to the fact that this defense is broken.

898
00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,000
Speaker 3: But I wanted to piggyback off of some of the

899
00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:38,680
Speaker 3: things you were saying when you talk about dan Quinn,

900
00:36:38,800 --> 00:36:40,600
Speaker 3: that voice and how much pridey takes in the defense.

901
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:43,600
Speaker 2: You also mentioned a guy like Bobby Wagner, for example.

902
00:36:43,800 --> 00:36:45,279
Speaker 3: You know some of these leaders in the locker room,

903
00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:48,360
Speaker 3: how much is it incumbent upon those guys, even a

904
00:36:48,440 --> 00:36:50,160
Speaker 3: von Miller, guys who've been around for a long time

905
00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:53,120
Speaker 3: to step up and make their voices heard again.

906
00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:55,680
Speaker 5: I said, a first starts with honesty. Then it starts

907
00:36:55,719 --> 00:36:59,120
Speaker 5: with to a man, Am I doing my part in this?

908
00:37:00,120 --> 00:37:00,160
Speaker 1: Me?

909
00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:05,320
Speaker 5: Bobby Wagner, me zach Urge, me, Larry Tunzel, me, Marcus Mariota.

910
00:37:05,600 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 5: Am I doing my part to make this team the

911
00:37:08,680 --> 00:37:09,239
Speaker 5: best version?

912
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 7: Stuff? And I And it's not all on the coaching, right.

913
00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:12,800
Speaker 7: So whether it's.

914
00:37:12,680 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 5: Dq coaching calling place, Cliff calling place, whoever's calling place,

915
00:37:16,680 --> 00:37:18,640
Speaker 5: we still have to execute and do our jobs to

916
00:37:18,719 --> 00:37:21,880
Speaker 5: do the best of our abilities. Then not leadership spills

917
00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,600
Speaker 5: over to the group, right, because there's always in each group,

918
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,640
Speaker 5: each room, there's always a big dog right in the room.

919
00:37:28,880 --> 00:37:29,920
Speaker 2: That was me and our room.

920
00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:32,120
Speaker 5: Just so y'all know, Smooth might be listening to that

921
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,080
Speaker 5: was me and our room. But I would make sure

922
00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 5: that the guys, it's like, hey, guys, we have as

923
00:37:38,040 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 5: a group, we gotta work together. I'm gonna take accountability

924
00:37:42,440 --> 00:37:44,040
Speaker 5: for my actions and my performance.

925
00:37:44,840 --> 00:37:46,880
Speaker 7: I want us to talk. How can I help you?

926
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:49,759
Speaker 5: And then it starts to get contagious because now when

927
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:52,960
Speaker 5: the leader in that room is making saying, hey, you

928
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:55,680
Speaker 5: know it was my fault, and then everybody else sees

929
00:37:55,719 --> 00:37:58,480
Speaker 5: that that leader's taking accountability. Then to a man, that

930
00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:01,759
Speaker 5: happens and they guess contagious, and I hope that's what's

931
00:38:01,800 --> 00:38:02,239
Speaker 5: happening with.

932
00:38:03,719 --> 00:38:04,520
Speaker 7: A veteran l team.

933
00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:07,280
Speaker 8: I mean, listen, like, So, they made some personnel changes,

934
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:09,880
Speaker 8: they tried a couple of different players, they said they

935
00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:11,600
Speaker 8: were going to scale back the defense. All these things

936
00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,160
Speaker 8: were natural that were going on. Joe Whitt, he was

937
00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:16,279
Speaker 8: asked by the players, so it's not that they.

938
00:38:16,239 --> 00:38:16,839
Speaker 2: Were blaming him.

939
00:38:16,840 --> 00:38:19,160
Speaker 8: They're saying, we want to have better communication with you

940
00:38:19,320 --> 00:38:21,560
Speaker 8: on the field. They asked for this to happen. I

941
00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 8: haven't seen any fracturing. What I have seen is play

942
00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:28,359
Speaker 8: that's unacceptable and they all understand that. And that's why

943
00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,040
Speaker 8: I think at some point there is going to be

944
00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:34,200
Speaker 8: a turning point, and I'm hoping it happens this week

945
00:38:34,320 --> 00:38:37,200
Speaker 8: so that we get competitive football, specifically from that side

946
00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:40,080
Speaker 8: of the ball, because I heard Logan talking about this earlier. Offensively,

947
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:42,560
Speaker 8: they've been dealt a really difficult hand too, over and

948
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 8: over and over. Yeah, but they're figuring it out and

949
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,960
Speaker 8: they're doing enough to remain competitive in the games. Missing

950
00:38:49,040 --> 00:38:53,160
Speaker 8: their starting quarterback, missing every outside weapon that any team

951
00:38:53,239 --> 00:38:56,040
Speaker 8: is scared of right, their leading receiver two of the

952
00:38:56,080 --> 00:38:58,319
Speaker 8: last few weeks has been here for a few weeks, right,

953
00:38:58,520 --> 00:39:00,839
Speaker 8: So they're figuring it out and still hosting twenty something

954
00:39:00,880 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 8: points a game.

955
00:39:01,680 --> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 2: They're figuring it.

956
00:39:02,480 --> 00:39:04,399
Speaker 8: Out the remain competitive. The other side of the ball's

957
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,400
Speaker 8: got to do that too, But I do believe they

958
00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:08,239
Speaker 8: have the people and the character in the room to

959
00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:11,279
Speaker 8: do that. I don't know what's wrong, Like I think

960
00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:14,279
Speaker 8: they don't know what's really wrong here. Like that's where

961
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:16,759
Speaker 8: I think it's really tough about this. I've never seen

962
00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:19,919
Speaker 8: anything like this. I've seen finger pointing, I've seen We've

963
00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:21,560
Speaker 8: have a lot of injuries, that's part of it. I've

964
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,560
Speaker 8: never seen anything like this where I think everybody's going

965
00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:25,279
Speaker 8: we're in the twilight zone.

966
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 2: Coaches or DQ.

967
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:31,360
Speaker 3: After the lost against the lines, even he sort of,

968
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:34,520
Speaker 3: you know, throw that out there, like we've got to

969
00:39:34,560 --> 00:39:36,319
Speaker 3: figure it out and maybe it's gonna take the bye week.

970
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,360
Speaker 3: But I think even he himself sort of admitted or

971
00:39:38,360 --> 00:39:40,640
Speaker 3: at least implied, I'm trying to figure it out too,

972
00:39:40,640 --> 00:39:43,440
Speaker 3: And so that's a really hard challenge being honest, Like you,

973
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 3: particularly a player, or what's going on with this game?

974
00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:50,320
Speaker 3: You have to sort of reset, and that's a real challenge.

975
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,920
Speaker 7: It is unusual situation.

976
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:57,480
Speaker 5: And if you think about last year, we would think

977
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 5: everything that could go wrong with right right right, and

978
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 5: you were like, god, you know, it took us in

979
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:08,640
Speaker 5: the NFC Championship game, So could this be the opposite?

980
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:12,439
Speaker 7: Right, Like, now, everything that could go wrong, it's going wrong.

981
00:40:13,320 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 5: And the good thing about this whole situation is that

982
00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:20,719
Speaker 5: brotherhood is still there. The team is now fractured.

983
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:24,719
Speaker 7: There's not a lot. There's some noise out there.

984
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:27,320
Speaker 5: We're not gonna call out the pundits out in Washington

985
00:40:27,560 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 5: that's calling for Jasen Daniels injuries and all that stuff.

986
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:32,879
Speaker 5: There's some noise out there, but for the most part,

987
00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,520
Speaker 5: we're all. No one is like to your point, No

988
00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:37,280
Speaker 5: one's point, fingers, it's everything.

989
00:40:37,400 --> 00:40:39,040
Speaker 3: That's a good point because a lot of time that

990
00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:42,600
Speaker 3: happens during a losing streak, when culture starts to rot.

991
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,319
Speaker 3: You see guys blaming each other, going on x going

992
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:49,480
Speaker 3: on Instagram saying you know, and we haven't seen any like.

993
00:40:49,640 --> 00:40:51,879
Speaker 8: You know, I've been it didn't have this locker room

994
00:40:51,960 --> 00:40:54,600
Speaker 8: for a quarter century. I covered your teams, yep, covered

995
00:40:54,640 --> 00:40:57,320
Speaker 8: these current teams and I've seen it all right, and

996
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 8: I've seen there are the bad apples that have too

997
00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,080
Speaker 8: much influence, and all of a sudden, it kind of

998
00:41:02,239 --> 00:41:04,840
Speaker 8: rots the whole core, and you know that this is

999
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:07,359
Speaker 8: the cause of what's going on. That's not what's happening here.

1000
00:41:07,600 --> 00:41:10,440
Speaker 8: I've seen times where the players just go the coaches

1001
00:41:10,480 --> 00:41:14,200
Speaker 8: are not doing this right, and that rots it. That's

1002
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:16,960
Speaker 8: not happening here. I've seen times when the coaches go

1003
00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:19,279
Speaker 8: too over the top and say it's this guy, or

1004
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:21,120
Speaker 8: it's this guy, or it's this guy, and you could

1005
00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:25,000
Speaker 8: feel that's when the Instagram people start getting unfollowed, girlfriends

1006
00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,840
Speaker 8: start liking posts like they start to the things that

1007
00:41:27,880 --> 00:41:28,399
Speaker 8: are being said.

1008
00:41:28,680 --> 00:41:28,960
Speaker 4: I know.

1009
00:41:31,040 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 7: I've a lot of that.

1010
00:41:32,160 --> 00:41:32,399
Speaker 2: Either.

1011
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:36,520
Speaker 7: This is one of the most unusual things I have

1012
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:37,399
Speaker 7: ever seen.

1013
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:40,319
Speaker 8: Knows what in the world is going I don't think

1014
00:41:40,400 --> 00:41:42,520
Speaker 8: anybody knows what's going on, and that's why I keep

1015
00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:46,200
Speaker 8: feeling like something's going to click. There's too much leadership,

1016
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:49,040
Speaker 8: there's too much pride going on here, and I hope

1017
00:41:49,080 --> 00:41:49,800
Speaker 8: it starts this weekend.

1018
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:51,800
Speaker 5: What better way to get healthy on on to it.

1019
00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:54,759
Speaker 5: Not that he's bad, No, like I said earlier, Well,

1020
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,200
Speaker 5: you know this I'm gonna tell you this right now.

1021
00:41:57,320 --> 00:41:59,479
Speaker 5: He's a starting NFL quarterback, so I don't want to say.

1022
00:41:59,400 --> 00:42:01,560
Speaker 8: He's bad as ago. He was one of the leading

1023
00:42:01,600 --> 00:42:03,279
Speaker 8: pastors in the NFL. And I will tell you this too,

1024
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 8: because they play on time. I heard Logan talking about this.

1025
00:42:05,520 --> 00:42:07,239
Speaker 8: They're a game playing offense. There are a scheme on

1026
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:10,239
Speaker 8: time offense. Yeah, but he's still correct, all right, Well,

1027
00:42:10,320 --> 00:42:12,279
Speaker 8: he does when he's under pressure, and that's what this

1028
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 8: team needs to change immediately this weekend. If he is

1029
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:17,520
Speaker 8: as clean as Sam Darneld to Jared Goffer, he's gonna

1030
00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:21,320
Speaker 8: light them up too. Well he is, get some pressure

1031
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 8: on him, otherwise you're going to be just as much

1032
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 8: in trouble with him as you have been the last one.

1033
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:27,000
Speaker 2: Isn't that the real issue here?

1034
00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:29,239
Speaker 3: If you're talking about the commander's playing man against the

1035
00:42:29,360 --> 00:42:32,120
Speaker 3: speed on this offense, and if Tua has a clean

1036
00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:35,280
Speaker 3: pocket with these playmakers, that is a recipe for disaster.

1037
00:42:35,400 --> 00:42:37,520
Speaker 2: So to your point, you've got to collapse the pocket.

1038
00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:38,439
Speaker 2: You have to make him money.

1039
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:40,440
Speaker 8: I know they're missing a lot of people, especially at

1040
00:42:40,480 --> 00:42:44,000
Speaker 8: defensive end. DQ's got to scheme something up to get

1041
00:42:44,080 --> 00:42:46,200
Speaker 8: some pressure on that quarterback. And move him off the

1042
00:42:46,200 --> 00:42:48,279
Speaker 8: spot because he's as accurate as it comes when he's

1043
00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,759
Speaker 8: standing back there. They did not get a sack the

1044
00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 8: last two weeks, not get one single sack. There were

1045
00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,560
Speaker 8: very few pressures on Jared Goffer, Sam Darnold. They looked

1046
00:42:56,600 --> 00:42:58,840
Speaker 8: like MVPs after that. Two is going to look like

1047
00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:01,880
Speaker 8: that too if you do not move him. So it

1048
00:43:02,000 --> 00:43:04,839
Speaker 8: is incumbent on them to figure something out, to change

1049
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 8: something up, to change a look and get him moving around,

1050
00:43:07,760 --> 00:43:09,560
Speaker 8: because then you get the mistakes out.

1051
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:10,600
Speaker 7: I hope so.

1052
00:43:11,239 --> 00:43:13,880
Speaker 5: I just his arm is not loud like those other

1053
00:43:13,920 --> 00:43:16,200
Speaker 5: guys we played, But I hope you're right.

1054
00:43:17,000 --> 00:43:19,200
Speaker 3: When you look at the Dolphins, is there anything that

1055
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:21,239
Speaker 3: stands at you as far as how they've been able

1056
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:22,920
Speaker 3: to I don't want to say turn things around. It's

1057
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:25,040
Speaker 3: just still a three and seven football team. But they

1058
00:43:25,120 --> 00:43:28,040
Speaker 3: looked left for dead. Mike McDaniel looked like he might

1059
00:43:28,080 --> 00:43:29,520
Speaker 3: get fired. Now he's gonna stay for the rest of

1060
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:31,040
Speaker 3: the season. We know that, and here they are with

1061
00:43:31,320 --> 00:43:33,680
Speaker 3: a little momentum. Is there anything you can look at

1062
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:36,920
Speaker 3: and say, well, based on that template, maybe, I mean.

1063
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:40,120
Speaker 8: That's something we have a feeling, And I don't know

1064
00:43:40,200 --> 00:43:42,200
Speaker 8: because I'm not covering them around him every day, but

1065
00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,160
Speaker 8: I have a feeling like the worst of the worst happened.

1066
00:43:45,360 --> 00:43:48,440
Speaker 8: They fired the love that. Yeah, you know, they traded

1067
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:51,080
Speaker 8: jail at Phillips. You know the coach is staying that's

1068
00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:53,160
Speaker 8: just it. But they know changes coming, you know what,

1069
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:56,239
Speaker 8: just start playing loose and I think they did also

1070
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,000
Speaker 8: a division game. They know that team that they played.

1071
00:43:59,080 --> 00:44:01,279
Speaker 8: They're not better than that team, but they know that team.

1072
00:44:01,480 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 8: There's no expectations. They're playing loose and the reality is,

1073
00:44:05,040 --> 00:44:06,920
Speaker 8: and this is what scares me about him, is they

1074
00:44:07,000 --> 00:44:10,240
Speaker 8: got speed on offense, yes a chance, got speed on offense,

1075
00:44:10,360 --> 00:44:12,080
Speaker 8: and you know what, you break a couple of plays

1076
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:13,600
Speaker 8: and all of a sudden, the score doesn't look right

1077
00:44:13,880 --> 00:44:15,600
Speaker 8: and then all the pressures on the Bills are going,

1078
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:16,760
Speaker 8: what's going on here today?

1079
00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 5: And they jumped up on him sixteen nothing. But that

1080
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:20,600
Speaker 5: is a very good point now that you think about it.

1081
00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,200
Speaker 5: They actually have nothing to nothing. Really, They're scary, right,

1082
00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:29,080
Speaker 5: and maybe maybe that's part of been our challenge. We

1083
00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,680
Speaker 5: put so much pressure on ourselves like we gotta win til.

1084
00:44:32,840 --> 00:44:34,760
Speaker 2: Especially when you think about last year, last.

1085
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,360
Speaker 5: Year, last year, last year, and we got when we

1086
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:38,960
Speaker 5: got to Marcus just got to hold it down for

1087
00:44:39,040 --> 00:44:41,040
Speaker 5: two games for Day to come back. And we put

1088
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:44,880
Speaker 5: so much pressure on ourselves and we play some great opponents,

1089
00:44:44,960 --> 00:44:48,640
Speaker 5: But with Detroit really that much better than.

1090
00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:51,520
Speaker 7: Us, I think, listen, I think some settle really that

1091
00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:52,160
Speaker 7: much better.

1092
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:52,480
Speaker 2: Yeah.

1093
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:54,440
Speaker 8: Well, when I think some of this the last few

1094
00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,960
Speaker 8: weeks is there's a disbelief that this is happening. The

1095
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:02,000
Speaker 8: pressure is ramping up. The expectations were you know, I

1096
00:45:02,120 --> 00:45:05,000
Speaker 8: thought deserved. Honestly, I know a lot of people were like, well,

1097
00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,960
Speaker 8: wait a minute, it was just one season. No, they

1098
00:45:07,000 --> 00:45:10,320
Speaker 8: were twelve and five. They had the best rookie quarterback

1099
00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:13,320
Speaker 8: season I've ever seen. The NFL agreed with this and

1100
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,680
Speaker 8: put them in so many standalone games and night games

1101
00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 8: for a reason, because they had an expectation on them.

1102
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:20,560
Speaker 8: And I'll thought, like, listen, they might not be twelve

1103
00:45:20,600 --> 00:45:23,160
Speaker 8: and five again, but you would never have convinced me

1104
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:25,080
Speaker 8: of this one as an outcome.

1105
00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:25,280
Speaker 7: With a record.

1106
00:45:25,680 --> 00:45:28,960
Speaker 5: Knew when Dame he's an automatic tim wing correct.

1107
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:29,719
Speaker 7: That's what we thought.

1108
00:45:29,880 --> 00:45:32,000
Speaker 8: We all thought, and I think they thought it too,

1109
00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 8: and for good reason. And when it started, you're seeing

1110
00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 8: the pressure ramp up, ramp up up, and then they

1111
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:42,600
Speaker 8: played Detroit, Kansas City, Seattle. Dallas has got a great offense.

1112
00:45:42,640 --> 00:45:45,080
Speaker 8: With the other three, there are all super Bowl caliber teams.

1113
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:48,200
Speaker 8: The pressure's ramping up. They're playing really, really, really high

1114
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:52,040
Speaker 8: end opponents and it's disintegrating on them, and this is

1115
00:45:52,080 --> 00:45:54,360
Speaker 8: where we land in the what is going on?

1116
00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:54,960
Speaker 4: You know?

1117
00:45:55,360 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 5: And that Kansas City game was one of those games.

1118
00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 5: I was just like, Okay, we got Terry, which was

1119
00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:05,280
Speaker 5: a huge boost for us for the two amazing catches

1120
00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:06,719
Speaker 5: that he had or how many catches he had in

1121
00:46:06,760 --> 00:46:09,560
Speaker 5: the game. But our defense looked excellent for the first

1122
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:10,319
Speaker 5: half of that game.

1123
00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:15,000
Speaker 10: They just didn't convert offensively to man they should have had,

1124
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:20,200
Speaker 10: and they may have lost, but it would have been

1125
00:46:20,200 --> 00:46:22,520
Speaker 10: a very very different game in the second half if

1126
00:46:22,560 --> 00:46:23,359
Speaker 10: that game wasn't tie.

1127
00:46:23,520 --> 00:46:25,960
Speaker 5: Arrington was just a monster that game, right because he

1128
00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:28,680
Speaker 5: came out like, uh had two sacks of first half.

1129
00:46:28,960 --> 00:46:31,839
Speaker 5: Jacob Martin, Jacob Martin, Arrington, Jacob Martin had two sacks

1130
00:46:31,840 --> 00:46:34,320
Speaker 5: of first half, right, So Jacob Martin. So I was

1131
00:46:34,400 --> 00:46:36,680
Speaker 5: just like, Okay, now we got some guys who can

1132
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:39,239
Speaker 5: step up and make plays. Kwalm was hit and we

1133
00:46:39,360 --> 00:46:42,520
Speaker 5: were just good. It's just I was expecting to see

1134
00:46:42,600 --> 00:46:44,920
Speaker 5: that same I talk about it when Joe Witt came

1135
00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,239
Speaker 5: to the sideline, I was like, we're going to see

1136
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:49,680
Speaker 5: that Kansas city and energy. We're going to see that

1137
00:46:49,880 --> 00:46:54,680
Speaker 5: same run to the ball, not giving up explosive plays,

1138
00:46:55,160 --> 00:46:58,960
Speaker 5: making tackles and just getting after it. And we just,

1139
00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:01,960
Speaker 5: I mean, to your point, Jinks Detroit Man, and I

1140
00:47:02,160 --> 00:47:04,720
Speaker 5: was like, I was looking at Dan Campbell Cally's plays

1141
00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:08,000
Speaker 5: and I'm just like, this is un messing with this,

1142
00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:09,960
Speaker 5: Like this is this is clown show.

1143
00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:13,239
Speaker 7: He's like, clown like it. He was laughing, right, it

1144
00:47:13,360 --> 00:47:14,239
Speaker 7: wasn't good man.

1145
00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:17,400
Speaker 8: They averaged ten yards of play ten yards of.

1146
00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:20,520
Speaker 5: Play, and we knew they were explosive. But Minnesota the

1147
00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,360
Speaker 5: week before it kind of they set.

1148
00:47:22,200 --> 00:47:24,600
Speaker 8: The ord every time they touched the ball, with the

1149
00:47:24,640 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 8: exception of the end of game when they were just

1150
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,399
Speaker 8: running the clock out, and the vast majority of those

1151
00:47:28,480 --> 00:47:31,480
Speaker 8: drives were sixty four yards. Are longer saying field or

1152
00:47:31,480 --> 00:47:35,040
Speaker 8: anything like that. The Seattle game, Sam Dartle had a

1153
00:47:35,080 --> 00:47:37,600
Speaker 8: perfect passer rating in the first half against and then

1154
00:47:37,640 --> 00:47:40,200
Speaker 8: the game was over at that point. This is why

1155
00:47:40,239 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 8: everybody needs it, and it's this isn't about a lack

1156
00:47:42,320 --> 00:47:44,080
Speaker 8: of pride. This isn't about a lack of desire, This

1157
00:47:44,239 --> 00:47:47,120
Speaker 8: isn't about a lack of buying. Something's wrong and that's

1158
00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,359
Speaker 8: why I think everyone just needs to take a break,

1159
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:55,960
Speaker 8: go get some tapis, have some fun. Right, take a break,

1160
00:47:56,400 --> 00:47:58,800
Speaker 8: get the brothers back together, make some memories, and you

1161
00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,240
Speaker 8: know what, you'll remember to play football on Sunday.

00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:38,960
Speaker 9: Unfortunately, like you guys have been mentioning, it hasn't been

1172
00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:39,880
Speaker 9: the year we expected.

1173
00:48:40,480 --> 00:48:43,279
Speaker 6: When the season started and when we talked about the.

1174
00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:47,279
Speaker 9: International game and we had the opportunity to to to

1175
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:50,680
Speaker 9: go across the pond calling game in one of the

1176
00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 9: most historic venues in the world, we said, I'm in.

1180
00:49:05,200 --> 00:49:07,840
Speaker 11: I'm actually around Madrid fan, so it's like, you know,

1181
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:12,560
Speaker 11: it's like double this is not my team, this is

1182
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:14,600
Speaker 11: not my team. I root for Barcelona.

1183
00:49:14,880 --> 00:49:17,440
Speaker 9: These two teams hate each other by the way, right,

1184
00:49:17,920 --> 00:49:20,759
Speaker 9: But I do respect where we're at, and when we're

1185
00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:26,120
Speaker 9: talking about venues, when we're talking about stadiums, Santiago is

1186
00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:30,440
Speaker 9: perhaps top three in the world. We're talking about Real Madrid,

1187
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:34,680
Speaker 9: a team that I don't like fifteen Champions leagues. Respect

1188
00:49:35,239 --> 00:49:37,560
Speaker 9: the moment you walk into that building, you kind of

1189
00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:38,960
Speaker 9: like you bereat that air and.

1190
00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:40,480
Speaker 6: You're like, wow, this is a specially does it hurt

1191
00:49:40,520 --> 00:49:41,000
Speaker 6: for you to say that?

1192
00:49:41,120 --> 00:49:44,719
Speaker 9: To be honest, because I removed my fan cap and

1193
00:49:44,800 --> 00:49:46,839
Speaker 9: I think about where we're at as a team, right,

1194
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 9: the whole Commander squad that's come to Spain to realize

1195
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:52,600
Speaker 9: that we're gonna be the first to call a game

1196
00:49:52,719 --> 00:49:55,400
Speaker 9: of NFL football game in that venue.

1197
00:49:55,520 --> 00:49:56,480
Speaker 2: It's going to be history.

1198
00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:59,120
Speaker 5: You think there are any Madrid players that play soccer

1199
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:01,040
Speaker 5: that could play like receiver that come out.

1200
00:50:01,000 --> 00:50:04,000
Speaker 2: And run routes.

1201
00:50:04,080 --> 00:50:04,720
Speaker 7: Force man.

1202
00:50:06,719 --> 00:50:12,480
Speaker 11: Has to be a big forward, big striker, plays. Yeah,

1203
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 11: he was a four to that guy like super fast

1204
00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:20,200
Speaker 11: and he's pretty bats oh yeah, really fast.

1205
00:50:20,400 --> 00:50:22,160
Speaker 2: I think he would be able to play. And the

1206
00:50:22,200 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 2: only one that can't play is Beneathios. You know, he's

1207
00:50:24,080 --> 00:50:27,120
Speaker 2: a little he like the crosswalk we were stopped at

1208
00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:27,439
Speaker 2: the stop.

1209
00:50:27,800 --> 00:50:29,520
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was amazing, laying down in the street like

1210
00:50:29,600 --> 00:50:31,040
Speaker 3: working the soccer ball with his feet in front.

1211
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 5: There was a kid that had unbelievable feet, like he

1212
00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:35,960
Speaker 5: was on his back. He flipped, he did a flip

1213
00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,120
Speaker 5: like this is chill amazing.

1214
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:40,880
Speaker 9: You know, that's something that they live here. This is

1215
00:50:40,920 --> 00:50:43,400
Speaker 9: something they're born with. Soccer is their first love, of

1216
00:50:43,520 --> 00:50:47,239
Speaker 9: course blood of course. But now we're opening the door

1217
00:50:47,320 --> 00:50:49,439
Speaker 9: to a new sport, right the NFL. And and let's

1218
00:50:49,440 --> 00:50:51,440
Speaker 9: get something straight, because I don't want to offend any

1219
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:54,880
Speaker 9: Spanish fans that might be watching this show and podcast.

1220
00:50:55,600 --> 00:50:59,000
Speaker 9: They've had NFL before, not an NFL the one we know,

1221
00:50:59,320 --> 00:51:03,400
Speaker 9: oh the Europe Europe in Barcelona. So you have a

1222
00:51:03,440 --> 00:51:05,279
Speaker 9: lot of fans that have been following the game for

1223
00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:07,520
Speaker 9: a very long time, and to have a game like

1224
00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:10,239
Speaker 9: this one in Europe, in Spain for the first time,

1225
00:51:10,560 --> 00:51:12,919
Speaker 9: I think it opens up a market that for them

1226
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:14,439
Speaker 9: has been closed for many years.

1227
00:51:14,520 --> 00:51:16,160
Speaker 2: I think this is what the NFL is trying to do.

1228
00:51:16,400 --> 00:51:18,400
Speaker 9: We're trying to globalize, so we're trying to expand and

1229
00:51:18,520 --> 00:51:21,240
Speaker 9: become what basketball is to the world.

1230
00:51:21,080 --> 00:51:22,120
Speaker 2: What soccer is to the world.

1231
00:51:22,400 --> 00:51:25,240
Speaker 3: So such an interesting point and as someone who follows soccer,

1232
00:51:25,320 --> 00:51:27,160
Speaker 3: like if you were football, like, that'll always be the

1233
00:51:27,200 --> 00:51:27,759
Speaker 3: first love here.

1234
00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:30,839
Speaker 6: But how much have you seen NFL football grow over time?

1235
00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:31,040
Speaker 1: Here?

1236
00:51:31,040 --> 00:51:32,120
Speaker 2: At least the fandom at.

1237
00:51:32,080 --> 00:51:34,839
Speaker 11: Least what I see on social media, like people from

1238
00:51:34,920 --> 00:51:39,320
Speaker 11: all countries, Latin America and Spain just commenting on regular

1239
00:51:39,400 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 11: things they do in their own podcast. Now they're having

1240
00:51:41,560 --> 00:51:44,600
Speaker 11: their own weekly segments. They're always viewing parties for the

1241
00:51:44,680 --> 00:51:47,360
Speaker 11: Commanders and the playoffs. Last season we saw huge numbers

1242
00:51:47,400 --> 00:51:50,239
Speaker 11: in Mexico of people just watching the Commanders. They love

1243
00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:52,359
Speaker 11: the Commanders in different parts of the world. I think

1244
00:51:52,400 --> 00:51:54,800
Speaker 11: it's something that it's going to keep growing. The NFL

1245
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:56,200
Speaker 11: is doing a great job when it comes to that.

1246
00:51:57,600 --> 00:51:59,040
Speaker 11: All we have to do is look at what happened

1247
00:51:59,080 --> 00:51:59,439
Speaker 11: this season.

1248
00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:01,640
Speaker 9: When we talk about the Super Bowl that's coming up,

1249
00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:04,480
Speaker 9: and we talk about the performing artists such as bat Bunny,

1250
00:52:04,800 --> 00:52:07,000
Speaker 9: another guy I don't like personally right.

1251
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:07,440
Speaker 4: And I'm not.

1252
00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:20,280
Speaker 9: Taking man, But here's the thing. I respect the artist

1253
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:22,160
Speaker 9: he is and how big he is, the the reason

1254
00:52:22,200 --> 00:52:25,400
Speaker 9: why they're bringing them. They would be international, global artists.

1255
00:52:26,120 --> 00:52:28,720
Speaker 9: He's gonna bring a lot more eyeballs to the NFL

1256
00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:30,640
Speaker 9: and that's that's at the end of the day, that's

1257
00:52:30,680 --> 00:52:30,960
Speaker 9: the goal.

1258
00:52:31,920 --> 00:52:32,520
Speaker 2: So something that.

1259
00:52:32,560 --> 00:52:35,279
Speaker 3: Nobody likes is how the Commanders defense is played right now, Man,

1260
00:52:35,600 --> 00:52:37,719
Speaker 3: what sort of feedback have you gotten from fans? We

1261
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:39,279
Speaker 3: know that Q is gonna be calling the plays this

1262
00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:41,640
Speaker 3: week hopefully that is a huge change for this team

1263
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,240
Speaker 3: and sort of lights of fire into the defense.

1264
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:46,040
Speaker 11: But what have you guys heard now from the fans

1265
00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:50,040
Speaker 11: as far as the team Lions. You just face the Lions,

1266
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:52,840
Speaker 11: you just face the Seahawks, you face the Chiefs pretty

1267
00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:55,680
Speaker 11: much super Bowl contenders, I would say, so the fans

1268
00:52:56,120 --> 00:52:58,359
Speaker 11: kind of come to terms that it's it's just it's

1269
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,680
Speaker 11: been a rough patch for the defens in the team

1270
00:53:00,719 --> 00:53:03,840
Speaker 11: in general. But the excitement is for this game in Madrid.

1271
00:53:04,040 --> 00:53:07,080
Speaker 11: Like like Moises has said, this game has been circle

1272
00:53:07,120 --> 00:53:10,000
Speaker 11: for people since it came out in the springtime. And

1273
00:53:10,200 --> 00:53:12,000
Speaker 11: we know definitely a lot of fans that are coming

1274
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:14,600
Speaker 11: over Spanish speaking and English speaking fans that are just

1275
00:53:14,760 --> 00:53:16,480
Speaker 11: coming over for the game, excited about the game.

1276
00:53:16,560 --> 00:53:17,160
Speaker 2: To schedule.

1277
00:53:17,560 --> 00:53:19,359
Speaker 6: It sucks, we got the short end of the stick.

1278
00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:20,680
Speaker 2: That's that's a reality.

1279
00:53:20,800 --> 00:53:22,200
Speaker 6: But I think fans are.

1280
00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:24,280
Speaker 9: Asking for the team to just play a little bit harder,

1281
00:53:24,680 --> 00:53:26,880
Speaker 9: to leave it all out on the field. And you played,

1282
00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,120
Speaker 9: you know what it's like, that's what the coach tails.

1283
00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,040
Speaker 9: You're at the end of the day, win or loose,

1284
00:53:31,520 --> 00:53:33,879
Speaker 9: leave it all on the field and at least walk

1285
00:53:33,920 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 9: away with that, you know, pride.

1286
00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:37,520
Speaker 2: You did everything you could.

1287
00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,560
Speaker 9: Perhaps the fan base feels that that's not what's happening

1288
00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:41,680
Speaker 9: for whatever reason.

1289
00:53:41,840 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 5: Really you think you think that's the sentiment like most

1290
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:44,600
Speaker 5: people think.

1291
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,120
Speaker 9: We've heard when we walk around the stadium, when we

1292
00:53:47,200 --> 00:53:48,880
Speaker 9: speak to fans on social media.

1293
00:53:48,920 --> 00:53:49,680
Speaker 2: I'm not making it up.

1294
00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:51,840
Speaker 9: You can go and see it yourself. But now that

1295
00:53:52,000 --> 00:53:55,640
Speaker 9: we have d Q stepping stepping in, we see what

1296
00:53:55,719 --> 00:53:57,920
Speaker 9: he's done with other teams. We saw we saw what

1297
00:53:58,000 --> 00:53:59,960
Speaker 9: he did with that list. Yeah, we saw what he

1298
00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:02,600
Speaker 9: did in Seattle. We know what type of coach is

1299
00:54:02,760 --> 00:54:04,759
Speaker 9: and when he came he talked about what he was

1300
00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:08,160
Speaker 9: trying to implement. Well, now you have an opportunity. Now

1301
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:09,920
Speaker 9: you're going to be the guy. I'm not sure if

1302
00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:11,319
Speaker 9: it's a long term solution.

1303
00:54:11,160 --> 00:54:14,600
Speaker 5: But is that to be the guy when they're they're

1304
00:54:14,760 --> 00:54:16,280
Speaker 5: decimated on the different sides.

1305
00:54:16,040 --> 00:54:21,080
Speaker 9: Of coach we had had to the national message has

1306
00:54:21,160 --> 00:54:23,440
Speaker 9: been you're going to have to learn how to win

1307
00:54:23,520 --> 00:54:24,120
Speaker 9: with injuries.

1308
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 5: We haven't seen it, well not, I don't know. I've

1309
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,000
Speaker 5: been around the NFL a long time, with my father

1310
00:54:30,040 --> 00:54:32,560
Speaker 5: and everything. I don't know if I've personally seen a

1311
00:54:32,680 --> 00:54:37,360
Speaker 5: team so decimated at key positions, right at key positions,

1312
00:54:37,400 --> 00:54:38,160
Speaker 5: starting with Terry.

1313
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:41,239
Speaker 9: I don't disagree with that, right, but it goes back

1314
00:54:41,239 --> 00:54:44,759
Speaker 9: to the point it's not about expectation of winning, it's

1315
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:45,480
Speaker 9: just playing better.

1316
00:54:46,280 --> 00:54:48,160
Speaker 2: And I think with the Q we might see that.

1317
00:54:48,400 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 4: Right.

1318
00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:51,720
Speaker 9: It didn't work out with Joe Witt for whatever reason.

1319
00:54:52,440 --> 00:54:54,920
Speaker 9: Like you said, injuries played a big role. But now

1320
00:54:54,960 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 9: a guy who's more experienced is going to step.

1321
00:54:56,880 --> 00:54:58,680
Speaker 3: Into I think this is the perfect both things can

1322
00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:02,080
Speaker 3: be true, right, yes, where look, had injuries been a

1323
00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:03,719
Speaker 3: huge part of what's going on with this team, no

1324
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:06,799
Speaker 3: question about it. And at the same time, even if

1325
00:55:06,800 --> 00:55:08,920
Speaker 3: you're decimated by injuries, you need to see more from

1326
00:55:08,960 --> 00:55:09,720
Speaker 3: the defensive particular.

1327
00:55:09,760 --> 00:55:11,320
Speaker 5: But what can I say something about it as a

1328
00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,440
Speaker 5: defensive guy on the sage, the guy who actually played. Actually,

1329
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 5: it's one thing to say, well, the defensive kids played better,

1330
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:25,160
Speaker 5: but the best defense is an offense that keeps us

1331
00:55:25,280 --> 00:55:29,040
Speaker 5: off the fields. It hasn't been consistent. Our offense hadn't

1332
00:55:29,040 --> 00:55:31,560
Speaker 5: been consistent enough. Well, we had games where we ran

1333
00:55:31,640 --> 00:55:34,400
Speaker 5: the ball well, but there's been times where it was

1334
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:37,200
Speaker 5: three and out, three and out. These guys need We

1335
00:55:37,239 --> 00:55:40,000
Speaker 5: don't have enough depth because the guys who normally would

1336
00:55:40,000 --> 00:55:43,360
Speaker 5: have been the backups are playing special teams and starting

1337
00:55:43,719 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 5: Jeremy Reeves right.

1338
00:55:45,360 --> 00:55:49,000
Speaker 2: So we so at times like it's hand and handed.

1339
00:55:49,080 --> 00:55:50,600
Speaker 5: I just don't want us to make sure we don't

1340
00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:53,560
Speaker 5: single out the defense as it's all their fault while

1341
00:55:53,560 --> 00:55:54,399
Speaker 5: we're not playing well.

1342
00:55:54,480 --> 00:55:56,680
Speaker 11: I think also last year we saw a lot of

1343
00:55:56,760 --> 00:55:59,600
Speaker 11: things aligned for the team, Like the amount of injuries

1344
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:01,440
Speaker 11: for the team last year compared to this year is

1345
00:56:01,560 --> 00:56:04,480
Speaker 11: night and day. You know, things aligned, the percentage on

1346
00:56:04,560 --> 00:56:07,720
Speaker 11: fourth downs last year everything worked for the team. Everything clicked,

1347
00:56:07,880 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 11: the last minute victories, everything was clicking for the team

1348
00:56:10,360 --> 00:56:12,479
Speaker 11: last year. So we kind of just saw that maybe

1349
00:56:12,520 --> 00:56:14,440
Speaker 11: that was going to flow into this year. We know

1350
00:56:14,560 --> 00:56:18,080
Speaker 11: eventually an NFL stuff balances out, stuff balances itself out.

1351
00:56:18,400 --> 00:56:20,120
Speaker 3: What was the stat, Jason, I think you gave us

1352
00:56:20,160 --> 00:56:24,360
Speaker 3: this where last year the Commander's fourth down conversion percentage

1353
00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:26,440
Speaker 3: was higher than Michael Jordan's free throw percentage.

1354
00:56:28,040 --> 00:56:30,919
Speaker 2: That's an incredible that's an incredible stat he should getting.

1355
00:56:31,360 --> 00:56:32,320
Speaker 2: That's an incredible status.

1356
00:56:32,719 --> 00:56:35,520
Speaker 3: That guy.

1357
00:56:37,280 --> 00:56:40,040
Speaker 5: Best hair in the building. You know what, you know

1358
00:56:40,080 --> 00:56:40,600
Speaker 5: what I've seen.

1359
00:56:40,719 --> 00:56:43,040
Speaker 9: Uh, this is something that I wanted to point out

1360
00:56:43,160 --> 00:56:46,600
Speaker 9: the fact that I feel, this is my personal opinion,

1361
00:56:47,320 --> 00:56:51,600
Speaker 9: we're lacking big game changing place in the tackles. Right,

1362
00:56:51,680 --> 00:56:54,799
Speaker 9: we talk about a lot of miss tackles. I think

1363
00:56:54,880 --> 00:56:56,800
Speaker 9: this year we haven't seen enough. At the beginning of

1364
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,479
Speaker 9: the season, we saw players step up and Nick Bloor

1365
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:01,839
Speaker 9: was a guy who was hitting hard.

1366
00:57:02,520 --> 00:57:05,120
Speaker 2: Joan Reeves was there as well, and he's been he's

1367
00:57:05,200 --> 00:57:07,800
Speaker 2: been in and out. Yeah, we need consistency when it

1368
00:57:07,840 --> 00:57:08,200
Speaker 2: comes to that.

1369
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,200
Speaker 9: But we need those plays that change the tempo of

1370
00:57:11,239 --> 00:57:12,919
Speaker 9: the game, and I don't think we've had enough.

1371
00:57:13,200 --> 00:57:16,360
Speaker 5: Yeah, and that's usually done by superstars. Usually you need

1372
00:57:16,440 --> 00:57:19,320
Speaker 5: a guy who can say I will make a play.

1373
00:57:19,800 --> 00:57:21,880
Speaker 5: I was expecting at the start of this season, Like

1374
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:24,439
Speaker 5: once we had a we were gonna be deeping making

1375
00:57:24,480 --> 00:57:26,640
Speaker 5: a run into the playoff, a guy like vond Miller

1376
00:57:26,680 --> 00:57:29,120
Speaker 5: would come in and make a splash play like that,

1377
00:57:29,320 --> 00:57:31,400
Speaker 5: exactly what you're talking about. On the offense side of

1378
00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:35,040
Speaker 5: the ball, Terry, it was, it was our splash. DeVos

1379
00:57:35,160 --> 00:57:36,480
Speaker 5: showed some early in the year.

1380
00:57:36,440 --> 00:57:38,720
Speaker 2: But he's been dealing with that heel injury as well.

1381
00:57:39,480 --> 00:57:43,840
Speaker 5: So big plays come from big time players. So a

1382
00:57:43,960 --> 00:57:47,240
Speaker 5: lot of our starters are out. Not that the backups

1383
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:49,680
Speaker 5: and guys who were second or third on depth try

1384
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:52,439
Speaker 5: can't make those plays, but it's a reason why you were.

1385
00:57:52,360 --> 00:57:54,840
Speaker 2: Starting so early in the season, right.

1386
00:57:55,160 --> 00:57:58,480
Speaker 11: Two positions that they addressed was the end and deeterrich

1387
00:57:58,520 --> 00:58:00,960
Speaker 11: Wise went out the second game, and then the next

1388
00:58:01,000 --> 00:58:04,600
Speaker 11: game they had addressed safety. Will Harris goes out as well,

1389
00:58:04,960 --> 00:58:06,920
Speaker 11: things that they thought they had addressed during the office.

1390
00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:09,480
Speaker 2: Was playing very well. Yeah, Harris was playing pretty good.

1391
00:58:09,560 --> 00:58:11,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a production right there. Because you think about

1392
00:58:11,800 --> 00:58:15,240
Speaker 5: in the NBA, imagining like your second leading scorer he leaves,

1393
00:58:15,280 --> 00:58:18,640
Speaker 5: it leaves again, right, that's like twenty points that's gone away, right,

1394
00:58:18,960 --> 00:58:20,800
Speaker 5: So it's the same thing in football when you don't

1395
00:58:20,880 --> 00:58:24,520
Speaker 5: have those superstars, a guy like, all right, I can

1396
00:58:24,600 --> 00:58:27,520
Speaker 5: lock this guy down, lean the safety over there, and

1397
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:28,520
Speaker 5: we're gonna make a play.

1398
00:58:29,400 --> 00:58:31,000
Speaker 7: It's harder for everybody to make play.

1399
00:58:31,120 --> 00:58:32,600
Speaker 3: And one thing we haven't talked about a lot is

1400
00:58:32,960 --> 00:58:36,160
Speaker 3: the Commander's offense has actually been pretty efficient.

1401
00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:37,920
Speaker 2: Marcus Moriana has done a nice job.

1402
00:58:38,240 --> 00:58:41,280
Speaker 3: So if the defense can get some stops, then the

1403
00:58:41,280 --> 00:58:42,920
Speaker 3: Commander's offense to get on the field and work.

1404
00:58:42,920 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 2: And also, this Dolphins defense is very good against the pass.

1405
00:58:45,520 --> 00:58:47,160
Speaker 3: They have a top ten pass defense, but one of

1406
00:58:47,200 --> 00:58:49,800
Speaker 3: the worst rushing defenses in the NFL. That's something the

1407
00:58:49,840 --> 00:58:52,000
Speaker 3: Commanders have had a hard time doing is rushing the

1408
00:58:52,080 --> 00:58:55,160
Speaker 3: football because they're always playing from behind. So if the

1409
00:58:55,200 --> 00:58:57,760
Speaker 3: defense can get some stops, then maybe that offense can

1410
00:58:57,800 --> 00:59:00,440
Speaker 3: operate in a way to keep this game close win it.

1411
00:59:01,080 --> 00:59:03,400
Speaker 9: I think things just simply haven't been clicking when we

1412
00:59:03,480 --> 00:59:04,560
Speaker 9: look at what's happening.

1413
00:59:04,640 --> 00:59:07,240
Speaker 2: Because Marcus, like you mentioned, has been playing well.

1414
00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:11,040
Speaker 9: Yes, he's actually he's produced better numbers than Jaden did

1415
00:59:11,240 --> 00:59:12,440
Speaker 9: when he was on the field.

1416
00:59:13,320 --> 00:59:16,240
Speaker 6: What I want to make very clear, because I know

1417
00:59:16,360 --> 00:59:16,760
Speaker 6: that when we.

1418
00:59:16,800 --> 00:59:21,200
Speaker 9: Get to this point and you have a streak of losses,

1419
00:59:21,920 --> 00:59:24,080
Speaker 9: people jump ship really really fast.

1420
00:59:24,280 --> 00:59:27,680
Speaker 2: We haven't seen that. We haven't seen that on social media,

1421
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:31,240
Speaker 2: on social media.

1422
00:59:32,920 --> 00:59:36,360
Speaker 9: In some of our colleagues. And to be honest, I

1423
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,400
Speaker 9: still believe in this team. I still believe in this

1424
00:59:39,560 --> 00:59:42,600
Speaker 9: coaching staff. I think we can write the ship. We

1425
00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:46,760
Speaker 9: had a great year last year, fantastic, historic year. This

1426
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:49,880
Speaker 9: hasn't been quite the year were expected. But I still

1427
00:59:49,920 --> 00:59:54,439
Speaker 9: believe we have the infrastructure we do to move forward well.

1428
00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 3: And I also think that when it comes to fans,

1429
00:59:56,520 --> 00:59:59,520
Speaker 3: fans always look at the smallest sample size possible, right,

1430
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:01,760
Speaker 3: never take a look back and say, all right, let's

1431
01:00:01,800 --> 01:00:03,720
Speaker 3: let's look at it from a broader perspective. What I

1432
01:00:03,800 --> 01:00:06,160
Speaker 3: mean by that is two weeks ago, look at the Bills. Oh,

1433
01:00:06,240 --> 01:00:09,800
Speaker 3: they beat the Chiefs. They're back. That defense is incredible.

1434
01:00:09,880 --> 01:00:11,560
Speaker 3: This is a team that's favorite to win the Super Bowl.

1435
01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:15,360
Speaker 3: A week later the Dolphins, right with all the Bills.

1436
01:00:15,440 --> 01:00:18,440
Speaker 3: It's never as simple as three or four games or

1437
01:00:18,800 --> 01:00:20,680
Speaker 3: week to week. You have to look at the bigger picture.

1438
01:00:21,560 --> 01:00:23,920
Speaker 11: Now, for me, I go back to the offense, like

1439
01:00:23,960 --> 01:00:27,600
Speaker 11: you had mentioned, that haven't been consistent this week. You

1440
01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 11: saw Chris Rorigaz start the game, and in that week

1441
01:00:31,080 --> 01:00:36,040
Speaker 11: of interviews Kingsbury had mentioned that Rigez does a good

1442
01:00:36,160 --> 01:00:39,720
Speaker 11: job of taking what's there, which means that he sees

1443
01:00:39,760 --> 01:00:41,680
Speaker 11: a hole and he runs through it, which means when

1444
01:00:41,720 --> 01:00:44,520
Speaker 11: we were trying to get Bill to be our top

1445
01:00:44,640 --> 01:00:47,040
Speaker 11: running back, he was kind of hesitant because he wasn't

1446
01:00:47,040 --> 01:00:49,920
Speaker 11: really hitting the whole heart have he used to when

1447
01:00:49,920 --> 01:00:52,240
Speaker 11: he started the season. So I look forward to another

1448
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:55,160
Speaker 11: rotation of the running backs again how we started the season.

1449
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:59,240
Speaker 5: And I think against the Dolphins, this is the best

1450
01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:03,240
Speaker 5: game gainst the twenty six worst rush, worst rush defense

1451
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,160
Speaker 5: to get back on track. If we can't get back

1452
01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:07,120
Speaker 5: on track against these guys, I don't know who we

1453
01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:08,360
Speaker 5: can get back on track against.

1454
01:01:08,520 --> 01:01:10,040
Speaker 2: What do you think is gonna happen on Sunday?

1455
01:01:11,160 --> 01:01:11,800
Speaker 4: We're gonna win.

1456
01:01:15,560 --> 01:01:17,960
Speaker 7: I tell you you gotta get we gotta get in,

1457
01:01:22,000 --> 01:01:22,880
Speaker 7: get out.

1458
01:01:22,960 --> 01:01:26,680
Speaker 9: Then, yes, the Dolphins are coming in two out of

1459
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:29,280
Speaker 9: three against a very good Bills team.

1460
01:01:29,840 --> 01:01:32,360
Speaker 6: We're not on that streak right, We're We're quite the opposite.

1461
01:01:32,440 --> 01:01:34,680
Speaker 9: But I feel that, like you guys talked about earlier,

1462
01:01:35,200 --> 01:01:38,320
Speaker 9: when we look back at this season, going away from

1463
01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,160
Speaker 9: home has helped, getting getting away from the noise, has

1464
01:01:41,240 --> 01:01:44,920
Speaker 9: helped creating this environment when the team can kind of

1465
01:01:45,040 --> 01:01:48,440
Speaker 9: bond has been a big part of the success of

1466
01:01:48,560 --> 01:01:50,080
Speaker 9: the of these Washington Commanders.

1467
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 2: For me, I think being away from the d n B.

1468
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:56,280
Speaker 2: Like like you had mentioned.

1469
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:00,360
Speaker 11: Throughout week, dan Quinn has mentioned that he loves West

1470
01:02:00,400 --> 01:02:03,200
Speaker 11: Coast trips because he takes out his team early to focus,

1471
01:02:03,800 --> 01:02:06,840
Speaker 11: to be together, to bond. I think I think they'll

1472
01:02:06,880 --> 01:02:08,760
Speaker 11: regroup and yeah, I think we'll see a victory on

1473
01:02:08,880 --> 01:02:09,440
Speaker 11: on Sunday.

1474
01:02:09,560 --> 01:02:12,320
