B Mitch was was 0:01:41.120 --> 0:01:42.960 feeling pretty good about himself and he was like, I 0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:45.880 will beat the gorilla and genuinely being serious. 0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.680 Yes, take be Mitching there. I'll take London in there 0:01:49.720 --> 0:01:55.000 with me. Also, Yeah, I take Bluefoot in there. Maybe 0:01:55.040 --> 0:02:00.400 they could talk hen what may make that they they 0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.000 can we can talk this out. We don't have to 0:02:02.000 --> 0:02:04.400 do no violence, right, So I'm gonna take a couple of. 0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:05.960 Guys in there with Strint, all right. 0:02:06.080 --> 0:02:07.600 I was gonna say the same thing about you. I'm 0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:10.040 taking you trying to talk and they can lay on. 0:02:12.680 --> 0:02:15.639 But the gorilla gonna mess us up because unlike us, 0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:17.359 he don't got no restraint. 0:02:17.400 --> 0:02:18.239 I control, that's what. 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:20.320 Yeah, Like you said, the five people. 0:02:20.040 --> 0:02:22.360 Were not we're not defeating that gorilla, man, So the 0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:25.520 best thing to do is to do something with them. 0:02:27.040 --> 0:02:28.799 You're trying to you trying to break a deal. We 0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:29.640 did that. 0:02:29.680 --> 0:02:32.680 You want him one of a gun because you ain't 0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:34.440 fighting that gorilla and you ain't trying to get it 0:02:34.440 --> 0:02:36.000 out of there. I mean, you know how some people 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.400 say go out without it. I mean, I ain't going 0:02:37.400 --> 0:02:39.440 out without a fight. Yeah, you better trying to. 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:42.800 The question is at what point does the gorilla get tired? 0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:45.280 Because we gonna get tired. What point was he said? 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:46.360 You know what I need? 0:02:46.080 --> 0:02:48.919 You're tired and one hit, one hit, Yeah you're out. 0:02:49.200 --> 0:02:52.320 O one time is a rap. 0:02:52.480 --> 0:02:55.480 I think about this probably more than I should. And 0:02:55.520 --> 0:03:00.160 like the first person that gets absolutely smoked by that gorilla, 0:03:00.240 --> 0:03:02.040 like you could have. You could have one hundred people 0:03:02.040 --> 0:03:04.160 in here and they're be like, nah, you know what 0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:04.520 I mean? 0:03:04.600 --> 0:03:07.000 Like, well, you know, hippo hippo bottom is is more 0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:07.960 dangerous than right. 0:03:08.040 --> 0:03:10.680 But I'm saying there's no there's no physical way for 0:03:10.760 --> 0:03:12.639 us to kill a hippo bottamus. 0:03:13.160 --> 0:03:15.519 Well, hippo bottom is kills more people per year. 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:17.600 I'm aware of most. I'm aware of that. But how 0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:20.000 but we couldn't at least with a gorilla. There's a conversation, 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:22.680 you know, maybe we could choke it out. I don't know, 0:03:22.800 --> 0:03:23.600 like but they got no. 0:03:23.960 --> 0:03:26.880 Can you sit at home thinking about choking the gorilla out? 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.239 Like all right, let me ask you this, what wrestley 0:03:31.320 --> 0:03:32.960 move are you going to? 0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:33.160 Like? 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:35.720 I need to stabilize this gorilla. 0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:43.160 What moves sounds like the hitlot step on his toe? 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:45.720 I just think this may I think about this too 0:03:45.760 --> 0:03:47.560 also because I remember one time I tried to break 0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:49.840 up a fight between Trent and a defensive tackle and 0:03:50.040 --> 0:03:52.240 Trent calls himself the silver back, make silver back on 0:03:52.280 --> 0:03:54.440 his back? Yeah, And I used, I'm a pretty strong guy, 0:03:54.480 --> 0:03:56.920 Like I work out a lot, I'm pretty strong without 0:03:56.920 --> 0:03:58.720 a s yeah, and it's it's not great, but like 0:03:58.760 --> 0:04:03.880 I'm overcoming bad genetic and and I tried to get 0:04:04.480 --> 0:04:06.480 rapping around the waist and like pull him back, Yeah, 0:04:07.120 --> 0:04:09.600 big Trent, And you would have thought that I wasn't 0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:11.880 even there, and I weighed two hundred and seventy pounds, 0:04:11.920 --> 0:04:15.760 I'm six five, and I could not get him disengage 0:04:15.480 --> 0:04:16.080 the person. 0:04:16.400 --> 0:04:17.080 So when I think. 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:21.080 About someone who's ten times stronger than Trent, yeah, like 0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:24.680 there is no move. There's no move that I think a. 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:25.400 Great thing about it. 0:04:25.440 --> 0:04:27.680 I'm the idiot to go try him first, So I 0:04:27.720 --> 0:04:28.799 get tossed over there. 0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.200 So once y'all see me get tossed against the wall, 0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:33.440 you're gonna try it first? What would you like? You're 0:04:33.440 --> 0:04:35.120 not just I'm just gonna go and get it over with. 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.120 Like at one point, you know, if we say we 0:04:38.400 --> 0:04:38.839 hit again. 0:04:39.120 --> 0:04:41.200 So when the gorilla killed him from that, what's that, 0:04:41.400 --> 0:04:45.640 I'll lay next to him, put his blood on me. 0:04:46.600 --> 0:04:49.919 Hey, hey we're going down. 0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.600 But but that's an interesting thing because like what if 0:04:52.640 --> 0:04:54.400 I went over and like you got a broken bone, 0:04:54.440 --> 0:04:55.880 I just took your bone out and then I could 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:57.800 stab the gorilla. So you really would save us, you 0:04:57.839 --> 0:05:01.040 know what I'm saying, So like you going first would 0:05:01.040 --> 0:05:05.600 save and well, and we'll have a really nice memorial 0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:07.039 for you. We'll be like man. 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:10.360 Eat everything he could to save us, and we got 0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:11.520 your bones hanging out. 0:05:17.160 --> 0:05:19.200 People don't think about the thing. But if you was 0:05:19.440 --> 0:05:22.560 in the jungle, you have to take on these animals. 0:05:23.080 --> 0:05:24.320 And but the thing is that I think this is 0:05:24.320 --> 0:05:26.680 why I like the thought experiment and leave a comment 0:05:26.720 --> 0:05:28.240 how many people would have take the defeat gorilla in 0:05:28.279 --> 0:05:28.480 a room. 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.520 I'm gonna take my chances of freezing and getting knocked 0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:31.239 out and then trying. 0:05:31.080 --> 0:05:32.760 To fight and get knocked out. But think about it. 0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:34.920 If I if I said here's here's a knife, everyone 0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:35.440 gets a knife. 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:39.400 Yeah we can we can stop doable? Yeah, spear way doable. 0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:41.040 Yeah, even if I gave you a plate like a 0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:43.080 metal plate from the weight room, doable. 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.480 Give me a number two pencil doable? 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.560 This guy like my guy over here. But yeah, So 0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:50.240 if you want to leave an email about how many 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:53.040 people would take the defeated gorilla in a small room, 0:05:53.440 --> 0:05:56.240 go to that hawk outside at gmail dot com and 0:05:56.360 --> 0:05:58.320 leave an email, or you can leave a comment here. 0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.200 If they hawk ca him down, I would grab his 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:05.720 foot with the hawk and how could be outside? 0:06:05.800 --> 0:06:08.080 Yeah, so I love that. That's a good thought experiment. 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:10.320 It is not I'm gonna go home and think about 0:06:10.360 --> 0:06:11.600 fighting the gorilla myself. 0:06:12.160 --> 0:06:15.680 Tanna had the best answers, though he's hiding under the 0:06:15.720 --> 0:06:16.479 curtain back there. 0:06:16.920 --> 0:06:19.679 I'm not I'm not thinking about it because I ain't even. 0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:20.920 It would just chance. 0:06:21.240 --> 0:06:24.800 Just so much pain, just so much pain, says I. 0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:28.000 Can see us just having him like one of them, 0:06:28.040 --> 0:06:30.320 each one leg each and and you got him in 0:06:30.320 --> 0:06:31.040 the head locking. 0:06:31.240 --> 0:06:32.920 You ever wrestled like a bunch of you got a 0:06:32.960 --> 0:06:34.280 lot of kids, You ever wrestled like a bunch of 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:39.080 five year olds, and you're just like, that's how the 0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:40.240 girl would be with us. 0:06:40.360 --> 0:06:41.280 So don't worry about it. 0:06:41.400 --> 0:06:42.880 Knock him dance all right. 0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:45.360 In addition to gorilla conversations, we also talked about football, 0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:49.040 we also have the hail Tails podcast, which is talking 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:54.640 more Carlisle stories carl Isle, Carlyle or car Isle, depending 0:06:54.640 --> 0:06:58.240 on where you're from, And we have a special appearance 0:06:59.040 --> 0:07:00.760 from one Fred Smoot. 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.599 I go by Frederick Man, Frederick Smoot, Thank you, Fred. 0:07:03.600 --> 0:07:04.920 What did you talk about on this show? 0:07:05.000 --> 0:07:09.479 I talked about my trials and tribulations in Carlile. 0:07:10.200 --> 0:07:12.040 I talked about my rookie season. 0:07:12.080 --> 0:07:15.960 When I got there, I held out yees, so I 0:07:16.000 --> 0:07:17.400 held out three days. 0:07:17.920 --> 0:07:19.320 Is this where they put all your stuff outside? 0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:20.120 No? 0:07:20.120 --> 0:07:22.720 No, I held out for more money before I reported 0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:23.080 the camp. 0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:25.080 Good move.

So thinking about that and you having 0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:40.520 to play lineback up the cone. 0:08:40.880 --> 0:08:44.480 Yeah, and they just they just jammed it into me 0:08:44.840 --> 0:08:46.319 to play out to play out to play. 0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:47.640 How many playschef do you remember? 0:08:47.920 --> 0:08:49.720 Had like five plays consecutively. 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.000 And I remember me going to sleep that night that 0:08:54.160 --> 0:08:56.599 first night of training campt completion. 0:08:57.640 --> 0:09:00.760 And I was like, I got the wrong job, Like 0:09:00.840 --> 0:09:01.400 I should. 0:09:01.200 --> 0:09:04.200 Have been a layer, maybe an actor, I don't know, 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:05.240 maybe a hand model. 0:09:05.600 --> 0:09:08.840 So commercially, I don't know, Like I. 0:09:08.760 --> 0:09:10.280 Really thought in my head like she had a couple 0:09:10.320 --> 0:09:11.280 of million dollars to go with it. 0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:14.200 Oh yeah, no, No, that make me say you better 0:09:14.240 --> 0:09:15.199 stay in here, baby. 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:17.719 So that's what you the story you're told on the I. 0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:19.440 Told this story, but I told a lot of more story. 0:09:19.480 --> 0:09:22.360 I told how my my rookie hazing happened, all. 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:24.200 The stuff I had to go through there. Talked about 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:26.480 the ice cream, the famous ice cream shop. 0:09:26.760 --> 0:09:29.120 I talked about how you could just sniff in the 0:09:29.160 --> 0:09:30.359 air and you could smell. 0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:34.760 Hershey, Pennsylvania, all over the state of Pennsylvania, just chocolate everywhere. 0:09:35.559 --> 0:09:35.880 Nice. 0:09:36.120 --> 0:09:38.040 Yeah, I can't what I mean. So obviously, if you 0:09:38.080 --> 0:09:40.000 want to hear more Carls stories from that era, that 0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:42.840 kind of golden era of the Washington Commanders, are you 0:09:42.840 --> 0:09:46.200 part of the Golden Area? Uh no, No, that's what 0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:47.920 I thought. I thought, you're you're gonna buy it. 0:09:48.280 --> 0:09:51.160 But at the time FDIX was still rocking. Yeah, everything 0:09:51.280 --> 0:09:53.760 was still Yeah, we were still in place. Now, we 0:09:53.880 --> 0:09:57.720 still we had hope. I hope was still there. And 0:09:57.760 --> 0:10:00.840 so that's always a great show. Obviously, Hannah and Jason 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:03.240 does a great job on that show. And so make 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:04.920 sure you check it out if you're a fan of 0:10:04.960 --> 0:10:08.000 this team and this team's history, it's a must listen. 0:10:08.280 --> 0:10:11.000 All right, But now we're setting kind of recent history, 0:10:11.120 --> 0:10:13.840 no current history. Yeah, current it's not even history. 0:10:14.040 --> 0:10:16.400 Yeah. Can it be current history? 0:10:16.440 --> 0:10:19.200 Yeah, it can't be current history. Dude, Look at you 0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:22.040 with the vokeb over there knuckles. Yeah, all right, current events. 0:10:22.320 --> 0:10:25.640 And we just had a game against the Miami Dolphins 0:10:25.640 --> 0:10:28.600 in the preseason. We lost, and I'm pretty bummed about it. No, 0:10:28.640 --> 0:10:28.880 I'm not. 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.320 I don't care. I'm gonna say it's a preseason game. 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:33.440 Yeah, So, like I mean, we talked about this last time. 0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:35.480 Does it matter? I know a lot of fans get 0:10:35.520 --> 0:10:37.320 worked up about it. Like it's crazy to me that 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:39.160 fans still ask me, like, does it matter? It's too 0:10:39.200 --> 0:10:42.120 bad we lost that game? Like this is this is 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:45.640 for something different, And I feel like fans don't have 0:10:45.720 --> 0:10:46.920 don't really get that sometimes. 0:10:47.040 --> 0:10:51.880 First of all, it's a pillow fight preseason, not played, 0:10:52.400 --> 0:10:56.199 not schemed, not the best players on the field. No 0:10:56.280 --> 0:11:00.760 one cares who wins the game. The the end game 0:11:00.800 --> 0:11:03.200 of this is to get out of there healthy and 0:11:03.200 --> 0:11:06.080 to get some good work. Other than that, and I 0:11:06.160 --> 0:11:08.360 much remind y'all, we went three and oh last year 0:11:08.960 --> 0:11:09.840 in the preseason. 0:11:09.880 --> 0:11:10.960 You know how that turned out? 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:13.679 How to turn out? And I'm just kidding, No, I. 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:14.079 Feel the same. 0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:15.680 I think one of the things about it, I think 0:11:15.960 --> 0:11:19.200 as players, we wanted to win in a sense, just 0:11:19.200 --> 0:11:21.000 to have that you know what I mean that you 0:11:21.520 --> 0:11:24.560 know how that feels when you have to practice the 0:11:24.640 --> 0:11:26.800 next week or the next day and just having that 0:11:27.040 --> 0:11:29.960 l hanging over you. But not only for yourself. You 0:11:30.000 --> 0:11:31.480 did it, you wanted to do it for those guys 0:11:31.520 --> 0:11:33.800 who was trying to make the squad. Yeah, those guys 0:11:33.840 --> 0:11:36.160 had now because getting that win will give them a 0:11:36.160 --> 0:11:39.080 better chance to say, well, at least this guy. Something 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:40.960 had to be done well for those guys to go 0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:43.440 out there and get the victory. So that's the only 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:45.440 time we really worried about it, because you want the 0:11:45.480 --> 0:11:47.400 team to have that kind of you know what I mean, 0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:49.440 that energy from a win. But when it comes down 0:11:49.480 --> 0:11:51.800 to just greating things and how you look at it 0:11:51.880 --> 0:11:55.560 from the I guess the big picture standpoint, Who cares? 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:55.760 Man? 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:57.480 You know, we're just trying to get ready. It's a 0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:58.959 glorified practice if you ask. 0:11:58.840 --> 0:11:59.520 Me, you know what I mean. 0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:04.400 It's practice with people bingo is having a game experience 0:12:04.480 --> 0:12:05.400 at practice. 0:12:05.480 --> 0:12:07.000 Yeah, no, I think that's one hundred percent right. I 0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:10.040 couldn't have said it better myself, Like it's it's it's 0:12:10.080 --> 0:12:11.679 it has a purpose. And so in the same way 0:12:11.720 --> 0:12:14.400 you practice with a purpose, you practice to see how 0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:16.360 your new two minute looks. You practice to see how 0:12:16.360 --> 0:12:18.960 your goal line looks. You're practicing that, but you're practicing 0:12:19.000 --> 0:12:21.400 it for the coaches. So the coach has to call plays. 0:12:21.400 --> 0:12:23.079 We have to work on subs, we have to work 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:25.400 on the communication from the sideline. Those are all things 0:12:25.440 --> 0:12:27.839 we need to work on. But like Fred said, it's 0:12:27.880 --> 0:12:29.960 a huge piece of evaluation. Like, I went back and 0:12:30.000 --> 0:12:32.679 watched a lot of football because I'm just trying to 0:12:32.679 --> 0:12:34.360 get a feel for all the individual players, you know, 0:12:34.400 --> 0:12:37.760 So I'm watching every position and there are guys that 0:12:37.800 --> 0:12:39.720 you've never heard of on this roster that are playing 0:12:39.720 --> 0:12:42.720 fifty snaps. Yeah, and they will not be playing football 0:12:42.840 --> 0:12:45.920 no offense to that person in the regular season, right. 0:12:46.000 --> 0:12:48.880 So truth, it's an evaluation tool. It's a kind of 0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:50.960 a dress rehearsal for some stuff. So I do think 0:12:51.040 --> 0:12:53.080 like and but I will say this though, I was 0:12:53.120 --> 0:12:56.319 actually really impressed with some of the stuff that Miami 0:12:56.360 --> 0:12:58.439 did offensively, some of the stuff we did, some of 0:12:58.440 --> 0:13:00.600 the stuff we did defensively, and some of the stuff 0:13:00.640 --> 0:13:03.360 that that the Cliff kind of had in and kind 0:13:03.400 --> 0:13:04.800 of how helped Jade. Now we'll talk about that here 0:13:04.840 --> 0:13:06.320 in a second. But one of the things I want 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:07.720 to ask you guys, and I guess we'll start with 0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:11.800 thread because it's a defensive question. Miami in the joint 0:13:11.800 --> 0:13:14.520 practice and Miami in the preseason had a lot of 0:13:14.960 --> 0:13:16.400 I don't want to say a lot of offense in 0:13:16.400 --> 0:13:18.199 because I feel like that's misleading, but they had a 0:13:18.240 --> 0:13:21.320 lot of motions and shifts and kind of window dressing. 0:13:22.120 --> 0:13:24.680 How is taking care of that in the preseason game? 0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:29.920 It's easy, actually because we're playing so green and our 0:13:30.000 --> 0:13:34.200 calls are so blah, meaning cover two, you motion, we 0:13:34.280 --> 0:13:37.439 still in cover two, Cover three, you motion, were still 0:13:37.480 --> 0:13:38.080 in cover three. 0:13:38.280 --> 0:13:39.960 Like it's fine. 0:13:40.120 --> 0:13:41.680 They didn't, but they didn't game plan. So I felt 0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:43.040 like there was a couple of times watching it back 0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:44.920 where it's like, oh, that's a bust. We didn't get 0:13:44.920 --> 0:13:46.880 that communicated or we didn't handle that correct. 0:13:46.640 --> 0:13:49.680 Because it ain't that ain't in that playbook. Yet we ain't. 0:13:50.080 --> 0:13:52.520 And that's why I say, coach won't to see play 0:13:52.559 --> 0:13:54.760 us in some bad positions. I like to see how 0:13:54.760 --> 0:13:57.920 they work theyself out. That was a perfect thing to 0:13:58.000 --> 0:14:01.480 go against the Miami team. There's gonna motion, not every 0:14:01.480 --> 0:14:05.600 other play. Every play somebody's gonna be in motion. So 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:07.800 he wanted to see with them stand up to that play. 0:14:07.840 --> 0:14:11.320 Discipline play, You'll reach your keys, understand what's going on. 0:14:11.440 --> 0:14:14.520 And don't get food with that window dressing. That's all 0:14:14.520 --> 0:14:15.840 it is is window dressing. 0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:18.720 So at the point, I think because the defensive coordinator 0:14:18.840 --> 0:14:21.800 was calling such a blocking it hilped the amount against 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:22.240 the motion. 0:14:22.600 --> 0:14:25.520 Yeah, I was gonna as because you've played against I'm 0:14:25.560 --> 0:14:27.920 sure defenses. Guy, I was with you at the time 0:14:27.960 --> 0:14:30.120 where you're in like the first second preseason game and 0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:33.200 someone brings like zero pressure. Yeah, you know what I'm saying, 0:14:33.200 --> 0:14:35.680 And like, can you speak to like how that just 0:14:35.720 --> 0:14:38.000 throws a wrench because you haven't prepped it. Yeah, you 0:14:38.000 --> 0:14:38.920 know what I'm saying, Like. 0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:39.720 It throws a wrench. 0:14:39.760 --> 0:14:41.880 And I think it also shows the coaches you know 0:14:41.960 --> 0:14:44.160 who you have at quarterback. I think that's one of 0:14:44.200 --> 0:14:46.200 the things that I took from it, when you're watching 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:50.280 yourself in those situations offensively, knowing that all we only 0:14:50.280 --> 0:14:52.120 have a hand for the plays that we're gonna run 0:14:52.560 --> 0:14:54.920 or formations that we're gonna show. And then the team 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:56.800 you saw a corner blitz and I'm sitting there talking 0:14:56.800 --> 0:15:00.400 about cat Yeah, and we like, but but see seeing 0:15:00.440 --> 0:15:03.160 what the quarterback does with that opportunity will tell you 0:15:03.200 --> 0:15:06.080 where we're at. But offensively, we're not expecting us to 0:15:06.120 --> 0:15:09.080 really do nothing, you know, because you know what I mean. Yeah, 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:10.880 but when I'm watching and getting back to what you're 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:13.960 talking about, watching Miami do what they did, it always 0:15:14.040 --> 0:15:16.400 reminded me of twenty ten and those years we had 0:15:16.520 --> 0:15:20.600 we had Sean, I mean, Kyle call and Sean because. 0:15:20.400 --> 0:15:20.960 That's what we did. 0:15:21.040 --> 0:15:23.440 We ran what were gonna run and rather you was. 0:15:24.720 --> 0:15:28.040 It helped us offensively just to be ready come week one. 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:29.600 We weren't trying to go out there and run the 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:31.520 whole playbook, but we had a set of plays that 0:15:31.560 --> 0:15:34.120 we want to be efficient enough on to say that 0:15:34.160 --> 0:15:35.960 we won. We're going to see this, We're going to 0:15:36.040 --> 0:15:38.120 probably you know, go back you know through these do 0:15:38.240 --> 0:15:41.120 these same plays. So I was kind of pleased to 0:15:41.160 --> 0:15:45.120 see our defenses to be kind of simple and boring and. 0:15:45.080 --> 0:15:46.560 Still with it. 0:15:46.600 --> 0:15:49.840 You saw a couple of guys here and there open 0:15:50.280 --> 0:15:52.720 you know, and those base coverages, but the same titles. 0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:55.880 Guys flew around and they was it was every man 0:15:55.920 --> 0:15:57.400 to the ball, you know what I mean, like they 0:15:57.400 --> 0:15:57.840 should be. 0:15:57.920 --> 0:15:59.640 And that's why you're the Mantana because that's the one 0:15:59.640 --> 0:16:01.360 thing that I took away too, is like, you know, 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:05.680
