1 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,160 Speaker 1: Alrighty, what's going on at You're played by play guy 2 00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,840 Speaker 1: Paul Allen, with analyst of Pete versus special guest also 3 00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,920 Speaker 1: coming up momentarily. Sorry for the bad news the Minnesota 4 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,920 Speaker 1: Vikings loss to the LA Chargers twenty eight, twenty four. 5 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: We begin zero to three for the first time since 6 00:00:33,960 --> 00:00:36,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty and second time in the last ten years. 7 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:40,960 Speaker 1: Twenty thirteen was the other start. You'll hear from Kevin 8 00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:43,879 Speaker 1: O'Connell and Kirk Cousins coming up shortly, but we have 9 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,879 Speaker 1: Hof with us here in the box. Box Mark Rosen 10 00:00:47,320 --> 00:00:49,959 Speaker 1: of KFA and Radio quick Twitch on the game. 11 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 2: Would you think, Rosie, Well, it's an uphill climb and 12 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,360 Speaker 2: everything that went well for me a year ago is 13 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:58,680 Speaker 2: going the opposite way. Their inability to do anything defensively 14 00:00:58,720 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 2: when they blitzed the quarterback and the secondary is really 15 00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:05,920 Speaker 2: been a repeat, repeat, repeat, So that's the story of 16 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: the game. With Justin Herbert had the opportunity and the 17 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 2: ability to just dissect this defense without really worrying too 18 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,720 Speaker 2: much about having a pass rush. So it's been one 19 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,680 Speaker 2: thing or another with his defense, but the teams have phone, 20 00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:21,720 Speaker 2: gaping holes, a lot of little things to pick on. 21 00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,040 Speaker 2: I don't know why they didn't spike the ball at 22 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 2: the end of the game. They kind of buy Kirk 23 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,480 Speaker 2: at least a moment to collect his thoughts, and they 24 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 2: had you. They didn't have the time outs, but they 25 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,200 Speaker 2: had plenty of time, and they practiced this stuff every 26 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:36,120 Speaker 2: single day at TCO and I don't know why they didn't. 27 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 2: I guess with the way they head coach has to 28 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:38,800 Speaker 2: say about that. 29 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,520 Speaker 1: But thank you, Rosie, appreciate you stopping by my pleasure, 30 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: Mark Rosen. That's ajof Here, comes Pete Bursich, analyst for 31 00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: the Vikings radio network. I mean, I don't really know 32 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,920 Speaker 1: where to start here. It's like Brandon Staley, the coach 33 00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: of the Chargers, goes for a fourth and won at 34 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:57,360 Speaker 1: his own twenty four. Jonathan Bullard makes the greatest play 35 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: he's ever made, wearing purple and gold, stopping Josh Well Kelly. 36 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:03,400 Speaker 1: So we're set up in good spot. We don't close 37 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: on it and win. Keenan Allen had a career day 38 00:02:06,880 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: and he's been in the league eleven years. Of course, 39 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 1: we're threatening to score way back in the first quarter 40 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:13,160 Speaker 1: and we fumble. 41 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 3: TJ. 42 00:02:13,720 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 1: Hawkinson fumbles, so that was stopped and Cousins went for 43 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: three touchdowns and three hundred and sixty seven yards and 44 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,760 Speaker 1: we still found a way to lose Pete Well. 45 00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 4: And I think the frustrating part is is I think 46 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 4: the first two games it was kind of easy to 47 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,320 Speaker 4: point to what was going on, right, it was. 48 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,320 Speaker 3: The turnovers, turnovers, turnovers. 49 00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 4: And then you know, we get into this one and 50 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 4: then Hockinson gives one up early it would have been 51 00:02:39,760 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 4: a red zone, new set of downs that takes points 52 00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:43,800 Speaker 4: off the board. 53 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 3: But then the rest of the game it just seemed 54 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 3: like it was a guy here, a guy there. 55 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:56,480 Speaker 4: And especially offensively that we had just breakdowns kind. 56 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 3: Of across the board. So the hard part with all this, Paul. 57 00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 4: Is saying what we fix, because it's it's it's across 58 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 4: a lot of different people. We've had five different people 59 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 4: fumble the football already this year, five five different players 60 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 4: fumbled the football. 61 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 3: So when you have. 62 00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 4: That, you know that magnitude, that number, it's hard to 63 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 4: just take a guy out and fix him that way 64 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 4: or or or address it. The penalties at some of 65 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 4: the bad times. And then defensively, you know, I I 66 00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:26,880 Speaker 4: think you got to give some credit. You gotta give 67 00:03:26,919 --> 00:03:31,400 Speaker 4: some credit where credits due in in Herbert and he 68 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 4: keenan Allen, Yeah, Keene, I mean. 69 00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:35,680 Speaker 3: Herbert outstanding with what he did. 70 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:38,280 Speaker 4: They they they had a great game plan going in 71 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 4: against the Blitz and what we were trying to do 72 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 4: up front. And you know, then again we ran the 73 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 4: ball better, we stopped the run better, but the end 74 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 4: of the day, it didn't you know, it didn't really matter. 75 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: And and we're gonna hear from koc here in a minute. 76 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: But when I said hit it, the they with everything 77 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 1: that that we've discussed and and what Rosie presented to 78 00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:02,120 Speaker 1: and and we'll eventually talk about one score games and 79 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: how that has completely flipped on us. It's with all 80 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: due respect, a Caleb Evans dropping an interception right in 81 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: his hands inside the five, and by the way, it 82 00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:17,200 Speaker 1: bounced into the hands of receiver Josh Palmer for a 83 00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: touchdown and a serendipitous score. I'm sorry, man, I mean 84 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: A Caleb had one interception when he was at Missouri. 85 00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:26,960 Speaker 1: He has zero in the last two years since Missouri 86 00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: was playing Central Michigan in twenty twenty one. And if 87 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:32,080 Speaker 1: you're going to be a starting corner in the NFL 88 00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: and your team is a desperate two zero to two 89 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:35,279 Speaker 1: and you're at home. 90 00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 3: You have to catch that pass, man. 91 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:38,839 Speaker 5: You do. 92 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 4: And what's ironic too, is just the interception, the last 93 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:45,720 Speaker 4: one that Cousin's through that was also that was also 94 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 4: a tip football, So you know, it's like we tip 95 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,799 Speaker 4: a ball and we don't come up with the interception. 96 00:04:51,160 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 4: They tip a ball and then they come up with 97 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 4: the interception and at the biggest spot of the game. 98 00:04:55,680 --> 00:04:59,839 Speaker 4: So I don't know, it's so it's so tough, Paul, 99 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 4: I don't know if these guys are playing with confidence. 100 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,160 Speaker 4: I think that's the thing that bothers me. I think 101 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 4: the most is I said, think about it, is that 102 00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 4: we had that big stop on fourth down and then 103 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: the offense gets out there and it just seemed like 104 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 4: we're trying to I don't know if it's to be 105 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:18,400 Speaker 4: too perfect to choose. He had the exact right play, 106 00:05:18,440 --> 00:05:21,839 Speaker 4: called for the exact right time. But the guys aren't 107 00:05:21,839 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 4: playing loose, they're not playing aggressive, aggressively up front, and 108 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 4: I don't know. It's such a turnaround, man, Like you 109 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,160 Speaker 4: said earlier, it's such a turnaround from last year. 110 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,840 Speaker 3: You know, Brendan Staley tried to give this game to you. 111 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 3: I mean, he just opportunities like that come. 112 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,440 Speaker 4: By very very rarely, and you know, you failed to 113 00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 4: capitalize on it. 114 00:05:44,240 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 3: And that's that's the part that's tough. That's the part 115 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:46,719 Speaker 3: that stings. 116 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: So the Minnesota Vikings fall to Llewen three, they lose 117 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:52,839 Speaker 1: twenty eight to twenty four, and to hear his head 118 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,359 Speaker 1: coach Kevin O'Connell with his postgame press conference. 119 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 6: Tough ending to a football game that, you know, quite frankly, 120 00:06:00,080 --> 00:06:04,120 Speaker 6: we felt like it was in our grasps again and 121 00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 6: didn't execute at the end overall the way we needed 122 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 6: to on either of our final two possessions to get 123 00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 6: one of those footballs in the end zone. You know, 124 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:17,960 Speaker 6: the last the last play sequence, there have a chance 125 00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:20,119 Speaker 6: at kJ early on just one of those. 126 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 5: You know, we don't miss a lot of those. 127 00:06:23,320 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 6: Then roll into a sequence of downs, hit TJ on 128 00:06:26,040 --> 00:06:29,400 Speaker 6: the fourth down, and then first and goal. I wanted 129 00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 6: to get a you know, we have elements in our 130 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:36,080 Speaker 6: offense to go fast at the same rate of time 131 00:06:36,160 --> 00:06:37,360 Speaker 6: hopefully that a. 132 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 5: Clock play would be. 133 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 6: There was a little bit of the crowd in the 134 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 6: situation with the headsets. There was a little bit of 135 00:06:45,520 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 6: confusion early on. By the time he was able to 136 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,160 Speaker 6: you know, cleanly hear me and get everybody aligned, too 137 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 6: much time had come off the clock probably, you know, 138 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 6: looking back on it, you know just should have clocked 139 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:01,240 Speaker 6: it and taken the three snaps from there to try 140 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 6: to punch the ball in the end zone. But wanted 141 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 6: to try to the way we're defended down there, if 142 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:08,640 Speaker 6: we can get a call that essentially gives us a 143 00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,000 Speaker 6: chance to score before they can set their defensive plan, 144 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 6: bring extra dbs and things in the game to defend 145 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 6: some of our personnel. I wanted to try to get 146 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 6: one off the very least. You're thinking it's an incomplete 147 00:07:18,560 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 6: and you've got enough time under our normal operation to 148 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 6: get a few more, get get exhaust the rest of 149 00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:28,119 Speaker 6: the downs if you need them. That's not what took place, 150 00:07:28,840 --> 00:07:33,080 Speaker 6: And then we had the unfortunate tipball pick there that 151 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 6: that eliminated our opportunity to win the football game. Thought 152 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 6: we ran the ball well, which was encouraging. Clearly we're 153 00:07:41,760 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 6: very explosive in the past game. We just need to 154 00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:46,000 Speaker 6: be a little bit better on third down and give 155 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 6: Kirk a little bit more time to operate and try 156 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 6: to find some some people because you know, there's there's 157 00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 6: some throws to be had if we can keep him 158 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 6: safe and clean, which is tough to do against the 159 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 6: front with Khalil Mack and some of. 160 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:00,440 Speaker 5: Those guys, but that is the expectation. 161 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,040 Speaker 6: And then defensively, you know, we knew that's a very 162 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,600 Speaker 6: good offense, very good quarterback over there, a lot of yards. 163 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:09,320 Speaker 6: But they did get us the stop that we needed 164 00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 6: and gave us a premier opportunity there to try to 165 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 6: win the game, and we did not capitalize. Do you 166 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 6: think that the confusion you referenced played a role in 167 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 6: just the execution of that final I think I think 168 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,560 Speaker 6: he was, you know, he was having trouble hearing me 169 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 6: at first. 170 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 5: I don't think. 171 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 6: I don't think the you know, the headset was initially 172 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:32,360 Speaker 6: I might have, you know, you know, whether it was 173 00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 6: the crowd or what. He wasn't hearing me clean at first, 174 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,800 Speaker 6: and then by the time he pieced it together enough 175 00:08:37,800 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 6: clock had gone off that I think, you know, probably 176 00:08:41,160 --> 00:08:43,600 Speaker 6: we should have just clocked it at that point. But 177 00:08:44,440 --> 00:08:46,440 Speaker 6: we have, like I said, Kevin, we have elements of 178 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,240 Speaker 6: our offense, no matter where we are on the field 179 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 6: to try to go fast and capitalize on situations. 180 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 5: It didn't. It didn't go that way. You know, after 181 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 5: the snap, you know he throws and intercepted. I mean 182 00:08:57,640 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 5: the execution, the outcome. 183 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 6: Do you think no, I mean he got that, he 184 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 6: got he got a play called. You know, we had 185 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,760 Speaker 6: a JJ isolated on the backside and a chance to 186 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:07,760 Speaker 6: try to get levels of the defense and and then 187 00:09:07,800 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 6: potentially throw it out the back of the end zone 188 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 6: if it's not there. You know, I don't. I don't 189 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 6: think although the time was incredibly critical, I don't think 190 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:16,679 Speaker 6: that contributed. 191 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:17,280 Speaker 5: I think he called. 192 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:18,960 Speaker 6: Whether if I would have if we would have clocked 193 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,520 Speaker 6: it on first down and then run that play, I 194 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 6: think that attempt probably still gets made. 195 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:24,240 Speaker 5: I do think that. 196 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 2: Kevin three losses in a row on two at home, 197 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 2: it's a pretty big folded being out of it. 198 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 5: It is the guys in that locker room are the 199 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:31,679 Speaker 5: ones that can do that. 200 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 6: I do, I do, and uh I think the you 201 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 6: know what we are going to continue to do is 202 00:09:37,960 --> 00:09:40,199 Speaker 6: continue to find a way to a man. 203 00:09:40,280 --> 00:09:41,760 Speaker 5: Coaches included starting with. 204 00:09:41,679 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 6: Myself, to do a little bit more, you know, find 205 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 6: a way to do a little bit more and and 206 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,360 Speaker 6: and find a way to you know, complete four quarters 207 00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 6: of football, the way we need to play to win games. 208 00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,719 Speaker 6: And uh, that's complimentary when when you're playing against a 209 00:09:54,760 --> 00:09:57,480 Speaker 6: really good offense. On the other side, four hundred and 210 00:09:57,520 --> 00:09:59,439 Speaker 6: seventy five yards of offense is great. But we still 211 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,960 Speaker 6: finish with twenty four points and you know they finished 212 00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:03,680 Speaker 6: with twenty eight. 213 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:04,960 Speaker 5: So it wasn't good enough to win. 214 00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:07,040 Speaker 6: I will say I've been a part of, you know, 215 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,360 Speaker 6: a team before that's you know, lost three in a row. 216 00:10:10,000 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 6: Wasn't the start of the season, but lost three in 217 00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 6: a row and found a way to win a world championship. 218 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,960 Speaker 6: I believe in this team. I believe in the makeup 219 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 6: of this team. I believe in our leadership, I believe 220 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,560 Speaker 6: in our coaches, and we are going to continue to work. 221 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,360 Speaker 6: That is not one concern of mine. With the type 222 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 6: of guys we have in there. We could be disappointed 223 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 6: and we could be very upset about the outcome today, 224 00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 6: which everybody in that locker room, coaches and players included. 225 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:34,760 Speaker 5: We are. 226 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 6: We're right there with our fans and feel it, but 227 00:10:38,120 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 6: that hopefully our backs are against the wall. 228 00:10:40,960 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 1: Now. 229 00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 5: We've got to find a way to get our first win. 230 00:10:42,679 --> 00:10:45,240 Speaker 6: This week and go on the road to do it 231 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,560 Speaker 6: and just see if we can start stacking them from. 232 00:10:47,480 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 5: There and working our way out. Got a lot of 233 00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:57,600 Speaker 5: football left with all those yards and running game unsuccessful 234 00:10:57,640 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 5: if they're down. 235 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 6: I think there was you know, they you know, they 236 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 6: got they got a couple uh kind of one hitch 237 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:06,240 Speaker 6: kind of timing type pressures on Kirk. 238 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 5: Wasn't really you know, all out pressure. 239 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:10,320 Speaker 6: It was just you know, they were they were able 240 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,520 Speaker 6: to get to him a little bit on some of 241 00:11:11,559 --> 00:11:14,960 Speaker 6: those downs. We had Alex Madison on you know, on 242 00:11:15,040 --> 00:11:17,800 Speaker 6: a kind of a design play against man coverage. 243 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 5: He's he's pretty much by himself at that point. 244 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 6: And and Bosa, I think both off the right side, 245 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:25,480 Speaker 6: Uh hit Kirk's arm as he goes to throw it. 246 00:11:26,600 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 6: Those are the things, Those are the little things here 247 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 6: and there that you know, we make those plays. Had 248 00:11:31,480 --> 00:11:33,400 Speaker 6: a chance to intercept the football late in the game, 249 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 6: got our hands on it and really got our hands 250 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:38,440 Speaker 6: on the you know, pretty close to getting the hands 251 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 6: on the one at the end of the half as well. 252 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:43,600 Speaker 6: Both those are touchdowns for the Chargers, So we make 253 00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:46,439 Speaker 6: you make one or both those plays. Find a way 254 00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:48,880 Speaker 6: to just just give Kirk enough of a clip a 255 00:11:48,920 --> 00:11:50,840 Speaker 6: click to really throw a plant throw at Alex on 256 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,200 Speaker 6: that touchdown, and then some of the other third downs. 257 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,960 Speaker 6: We've been pretty good so far this year on third 258 00:11:57,000 --> 00:11:59,199 Speaker 6: down and and and just just got to find a 259 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 6: way to continue, uh to protect and what that looks like. 260 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,000 Speaker 6: UH will continue to find the best five we get 261 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 6: guys we can put out there, uh, and and work 262 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,679 Speaker 6: and mix our eligibles, work our different receivers TJ, JJ, 263 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 6: Jordan and kJ all you know showed up and made 264 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 6: plays at times. And then uh, you know, we just 265 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:17,920 Speaker 6: got to find a way to just be a little 266 00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,839 Speaker 6: bit more consistent till we're coming off the field after 267 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:21,960 Speaker 6: taking it over the goal line. 268 00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 5: It was a game where your pont was that to 269 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:27,199 Speaker 5: spread the entire. 270 00:12:27,120 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 6: Game I I you know, with our style of defense. Uh, 271 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 6: they clearly came in with a plan to to just 272 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:37,560 Speaker 6: you know, kind of see if they get pressure looks 273 00:12:37,559 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 6: and had some answers just to put the ball and 274 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:42,360 Speaker 6: play on bubbles and you know, block them up receiver 275 00:12:42,440 --> 00:12:44,720 Speaker 6: screens and and one step throws. They were not gonna 276 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 6: try to drop back in those scenarios. And that's where 277 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 6: we got to just keep defeating blocks getting off blocks. 278 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,320 Speaker 6: Hopefully those blocks aren't happening illegally before the balls are 279 00:12:54,520 --> 00:12:57,199 Speaker 6: balls caught, so we can try to rally and get 280 00:12:57,240 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 6: people to the football and force them into you know, 281 00:13:00,520 --> 00:13:04,240 Speaker 6: situations where they can't just continue to call those plays. 282 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:07,319 Speaker 6: Denil made a play, you know, getting the ball out 283 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:10,000 Speaker 6: on a critical third down. Just need just need to 284 00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:11,840 Speaker 6: continue to get our ops and when we get our 285 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:15,880 Speaker 6: ops to to potentially turn the football over, you know, 286 00:13:15,960 --> 00:13:17,920 Speaker 6: we'll we'll start making some of those. 287 00:13:18,480 --> 00:13:20,480 Speaker 7: The ball on the one yard on a chance to score, 288 00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 7: you handed it off to Alex was a quarterback sneak, 289 00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 7: not an option for you guys at. 290 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:24,679 Speaker 5: That wint it. 291 00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:27,680 Speaker 6: It was probably a little bit we like, you know, 292 00:13:27,720 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 6: we could have you know, in that scenario when you're 293 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:33,680 Speaker 6: just inside the one. You know, you you potentially could 294 00:13:33,720 --> 00:13:36,360 Speaker 6: save that QB sneak for maybe fourth down when you 295 00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:38,959 Speaker 6: could reach the ball out and try to just take 296 00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:41,200 Speaker 6: it over that way. I was confident in that call. 297 00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:44,040 Speaker 6: We put goal line on the field. I have to 298 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,640 Speaker 6: go back and watch it and see exactly where the 299 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:50,000 Speaker 6: breakdown was on the play. We were confident we could 300 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:52,080 Speaker 6: get a you know a little bit, a little bit 301 00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,320 Speaker 6: yet less than a full yard right there on that run. 302 00:13:54,400 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 6: We didn't get it and then h you know, ultimately 303 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,600 Speaker 6: it didn't work out. So that's you know, that's kind 304 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 6: of what I'm talking about, you know, whether it's been 305 00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 6: turnovers at the pylon or you know, late in a half, 306 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:07,880 Speaker 6: an interception being tipped and caught at the at the 307 00:14:07,920 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 6: one in the opener, or being down there you know, 308 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 6: trying to you know, trying to punch it. 309 00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,040 Speaker 5: In thought we were physical. 310 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:15,920 Speaker 6: I thought we were versus a lot of their plan 311 00:14:16,000 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 6: of playing shell and having a plan for justin we 312 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:21,160 Speaker 6: got some clean looks to run the football and took 313 00:14:21,200 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 6: advantage of it and then generated some explosives, you know, 314 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,640 Speaker 6: in different variations of our offense. Just got to find 315 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 6: a way to get you know, one or two more 316 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 6: scores there. And I think, you know, would have been different. 317 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 8: The double pass to Williams had they done anything like 318 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 8: that before. 319 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 6: But anything unfilmed in yeah, I mean, anytime you're gonna 320 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,640 Speaker 6: throw ten or fifteen bubble screens in the game as 321 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:45,120 Speaker 6: the zero answer, we got to be ready for that 322 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 6: play because the second you see one, two, three, four 323 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 6: times and then flipping the ball out there, I think 324 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,160 Speaker 6: everybody knows, you know, potentially a double move of some 325 00:14:54,280 --> 00:14:57,240 Speaker 6: kind is gonna come off of that, and we were 326 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 6: trying to coach those guys up to be aggressive, fly 327 00:14:59,480 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 6: up there and and confirm once that ball has been 328 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:05,160 Speaker 6: thrown to go up there and make those tackles. We 329 00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:08,160 Speaker 6: just got a little giddy there and jumped it before 330 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,280 Speaker 6: we had seen the ball actually thrown to the bubble 331 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,080 Speaker 6: and then he kind of tucked it first act. That's 332 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:16,280 Speaker 6: a trick play that that that scores with with how 333 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,960 Speaker 6: we were having to defend him, and we'll coach it up, 334 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 6: continue to try to coach it up and give them 335 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:24,520 Speaker 6: credit for executing that one. But yeah, Ben, that's you know, 336 00:15:24,800 --> 00:15:26,920 Speaker 6: I'm sure you know over the course of some of 337 00:15:26,920 --> 00:15:29,040 Speaker 6: the looks that we've seen over the years, you know, 338 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 6: when you're in those pressure looks and they only have 339 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:34,000 Speaker 6: so many answers complimentary play. To be able to get 340 00:15:34,040 --> 00:15:36,320 Speaker 6: the ball out of the quarterback's hands to somebody else 341 00:15:36,360 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 6: in double pass was great execution by them for a 342 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:40,120 Speaker 6: big play. 343 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:43,360 Speaker 8: Can't hear you in that situation, do you want him 344 00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 8: to make that exec decision that just to clock in 345 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 8: or honeying go? 346 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:51,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, I think there's there's some scenarios the 347 00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:53,920 Speaker 6: headset just goes completely out would probably be a better 348 00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 6: scenario than if he's just it's choppy and he's trying 349 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 6: to piece together what I'm saying. You know, we called 350 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 6: the play we were you know, trying to get to 351 00:16:02,960 --> 00:16:05,040 Speaker 6: We were lining up in the exact same formation we 352 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,800 Speaker 6: were just in on the conversion to TJ. He ran 353 00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 6: a great route over the middle, had a chance and 354 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 6: maybe catching score. I gotta go look at that one. 355 00:16:12,360 --> 00:16:14,520 Speaker 6: But then just trying to line up the exact same 356 00:16:14,560 --> 00:16:16,600 Speaker 6: way and get the ball snapped to see if we 357 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 6: can you know, get that thing in the end zone 358 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,040 Speaker 6: on first down without you know, allowing subs and rush 359 00:16:22,080 --> 00:16:23,160 Speaker 6: and all those things to come on. 360 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 9: Every kind of formation and every kind of blitz at 361 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 9: closing offenses. Do you worry that the personnel is just 362 00:16:31,000 --> 00:16:32,680 Speaker 9: not allowing you guys to do what they need to do. 363 00:16:32,960 --> 00:16:35,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, well, you know, we'll have to definitely take a 364 00:16:35,040 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 6: look at it. It does seem like there's sometimes where 365 00:16:37,880 --> 00:16:42,440 Speaker 6: we're you know, we're close, but uh, really when we're 366 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 6: when we're trying to you know, force some of those 367 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:47,280 Speaker 6: all out looks and the balls coming out, that's one thing. 368 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 6: Some of the other scenarios where you know, we're bringing 369 00:16:49,760 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 6: pressures of different kinds with either fire zone or different 370 00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,640 Speaker 6: types of coverages behind it. That's when it seems to 371 00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:57,720 Speaker 6: me like he, you know, justin had quite a bit 372 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 6: of time on some of those to sit in there 373 00:16:59,560 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 6: and push the ball down the field when when he 374 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,119 Speaker 6: when he wanted when he wanted to. So that's where 375 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:05,439 Speaker 6: we just got to try to find a way to 376 00:17:05,440 --> 00:17:08,200 Speaker 6: get home. Hopefully we can get Marcus going at at 377 00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 6: some point, you know, I think that's been that's been 378 00:17:11,840 --> 00:17:14,439 Speaker 6: an element that we've been missing, just his physicality and 379 00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 6: his versatility as a guy on all three downs. So 380 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 6: hopefully we can get him going and maybe you know, 381 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,040 Speaker 6: add a little uh, you know, add a little juice 382 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 6: in there to some of those rush groups on third 383 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 6: down to get people off the field. 384 00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,359 Speaker 4: Kevin, you started the game with those five straight runs 385 00:17:29,359 --> 00:17:30,560 Speaker 4: to Alexander Yep. 386 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,120 Speaker 1: Was that kind of your statement of confidence in him 387 00:17:33,240 --> 00:17:34,160 Speaker 1: and in the run. 388 00:17:33,960 --> 00:17:34,520 Speaker 8: Game in general. 389 00:17:34,680 --> 00:17:37,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, I you know, it's it's easy to keep calling 390 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:39,280 Speaker 6: him when you're moving the chains and and the runs 391 00:17:39,280 --> 00:17:39,840 Speaker 6: look like that. 392 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,159 Speaker 5: So I credit our guys. 393 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:44,600 Speaker 6: A lot of work went into you know, trying to 394 00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,720 Speaker 6: make sure we continue to hone in on what we 395 00:17:47,760 --> 00:17:49,600 Speaker 6: want to be in the run game, run game, which 396 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 6: we want to be versatile, we want to be multiple. 397 00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:55,320 Speaker 6: But in the end, you know, we challenge those guys 398 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 6: to win the line of scrimmage. And and and Alex 399 00:17:57,320 --> 00:17:59,959 Speaker 6: was running it really hard, uh, you know, as much 400 00:18:00,040 --> 00:18:03,439 Speaker 6: much as we emphasized uh, turnovers all week, and and 401 00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:05,399 Speaker 6: did every you know, we we talked about it, We 402 00:18:05,440 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 6: did multiple drills. We do you know, have a conversion 403 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 6: right there close to his forward progress being stopped or not. 404 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:14,960 Speaker 6: We've got to make sure we finished the down with 405 00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:18,080 Speaker 6: the football. And nobody was more upset about that than TJ. 406 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 6: But across the board, if we get that first down, 407 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:25,080 Speaker 6: maybe we can continue to run the football and hit 408 00:18:25,119 --> 00:18:26,480 Speaker 6: our head on the goal post the way we were 409 00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:29,439 Speaker 6: running it to start the game. But turn over their 410 00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 6: ends that drive and they turn it right back around 411 00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:32,639 Speaker 6: turn into points. 412 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:37,480 Speaker 5: Okay, but just for crystal clarity, did Kirk not hear you? 413 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,000 Speaker 6: He was he was having he was having trouble hearing me. 414 00:18:40,040 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 6: Initially was like, or what was there? I haven't had 415 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,800 Speaker 6: a chance to you know. It was probably the crowd noise, 416 00:18:46,840 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 6: and and you know, probably just the you know, sometimes 417 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:53,200 Speaker 6: that happens that it's not always noticed when we're in 418 00:18:53,240 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 6: just a normal two minute mode or we're just using 419 00:18:55,440 --> 00:18:58,320 Speaker 6: normal to no you know, but I do know we 420 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:01,760 Speaker 6: you know, called a you know, pretty similar play before 421 00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 6: and two minutes this season down there to even score 422 00:19:04,640 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 6: last week against the Eagles kind of towards the end 423 00:19:07,000 --> 00:19:11,960 Speaker 6: of the game, and it's just a situation where communication 424 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 6: is key and whatever. If there's any roadblocks between that, 425 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:18,320 Speaker 6: that's where, you know, we just got to make sure 426 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,400 Speaker 6: everybody's got clarity in that moment of what we're trying 427 00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 6: to get down and doing it as fast as possible. 428 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 6: My expectations are always sky high for our group, so 429 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:29,679 Speaker 6: I'm trying to steal one more play. But clearly with 430 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,720 Speaker 6: that much time going off the clock, even though I 431 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:34,679 Speaker 6: don't you know, ultimately think time was the issue with 432 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 6: that game ending the way it did, it certainly would 433 00:19:37,520 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 6: have been. You know, if that ball does get thrown away, 434 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 6: we're down against it to where we might not even 435 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 6: get the other ops anyway, So that one, you know, 436 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:47,959 Speaker 6: purely on me to trying to be too aggressive in 437 00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 6: that moment we get the first down, you know, definitely, 438 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 6: looking back on it, just wish I would have clocked it. 439 00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:57,959 Speaker 6: And no matter what benefit we we had going fast, 440 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:01,800 Speaker 6: the value was not received with what that execution looked 441 00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:04,679 Speaker 6: like in the moment. And that's you know, something that 442 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 6: you know, looking back on it, I wish I would 443 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,879 Speaker 6: have just had him clock it and not tried to 444 00:20:09,880 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 6: steal one there. 445 00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:12,280 Speaker 8: That's why just cramps for justin. 446 00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 6: Yep, yep, Iron had a contusion of some kind. And 447 00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:20,840 Speaker 6: any other updates I'll get to you guys tomorrow. 448 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:27,639 Speaker 1: Thanks guys, thank you, koc in reverence for the player 449 00:20:27,800 --> 00:20:30,480 Speaker 1: because he is one of the better receivers in the NFL, 450 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:32,959 Speaker 1: and maybe because he plays for the Chargers, he doesn't 451 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:36,159 Speaker 1: get the credit of some other wide receivers. But Keenan 452 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,399 Speaker 1: Allen is in his eleventh year from cal For whatever 453 00:20:39,440 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: the reason, he went third in twenty thirteen and he 454 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,439 Speaker 1: was targeted twenty times. He had eighteen receptions in two 455 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,760 Speaker 1: hundred and fifteen yards. A couple of things on him. 456 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: Eighteen receptions most of his career two hundred and fifteen 457 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,120 Speaker 1: yards most of his career. He came into the game 458 00:20:57,280 --> 00:20:59,920 Speaker 1: zero of two passing with one Zach. Keenan Allen threw 459 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:02,359 Speaker 1: forty nine yard touchdown pass to Mike Williams. 460 00:21:02,440 --> 00:21:04,320 Speaker 4: Yeah, they used like I said, they used him well 461 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 4: and they had a very good plan. I think we're 462 00:21:07,080 --> 00:21:08,960 Speaker 4: what we're starting to see on defense, Paul, and the 463 00:21:08,960 --> 00:21:12,520 Speaker 4: evolution of of of this defense week in and week 464 00:21:12,560 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 4: out is where we obviously were blitzing quite a bit. 465 00:21:17,080 --> 00:21:19,800 Speaker 4: But the problem is is once offenses can figure out 466 00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:21,320 Speaker 4: a way to get a hat on a hat, meaning 467 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 4: get a blocker on a defender, nobody across the board 468 00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 4: is winning, right you have to. If you get single 469 00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 4: blocking across the front and everybody's one on one, somebody 470 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:36,880 Speaker 4: has to win and beat their blocker. And that's exactly 471 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 4: what happened with Daniel Hunter when he had the sack 472 00:21:39,280 --> 00:21:41,760 Speaker 4: and force fumble. He was blocked by a running back. 473 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,240 Speaker 4: That's a matchup that you should win. Daniel won that 474 00:21:44,440 --> 00:21:46,399 Speaker 4: and we got, you know, a huge play out of it. 475 00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 4: So offenses are kind of figuring out from a protection 476 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:54,399 Speaker 4: standpoint what they need to do, and that allows different 477 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 4: receivers guys like Keenan, Allen, Williams, Palmer, those guys to 478 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 4: make double moves. So we're really starting to see the 479 00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 4: first time that teams are making these double moves and 480 00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 4: they're trying to get us down the field a lot more. 481 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,160 Speaker 4: It gave Keenan Allen a lot more time to get 482 00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:14,760 Speaker 4: across the field underneath routes when we blitz, so Herbert 483 00:22:14,880 --> 00:22:17,639 Speaker 4: had more time in the pocket, more time to survey 484 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:19,399 Speaker 4: the field, and more time for some of these routes 485 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:19,880 Speaker 4: to come open. 486 00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,120 Speaker 3: And that's the problem. You sacrifice coverage the blitz. 487 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 4: You better get there because those guys in the back 488 00:22:24,840 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 4: end are kind of on islands all the way across 489 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,399 Speaker 4: the board, so we need to win. My point is 490 00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:31,080 Speaker 4: we need to have some of these linebackers and d 491 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:33,200 Speaker 4: lineman win these one on one matchups when they get 492 00:22:33,240 --> 00:22:34,320 Speaker 4: them when we blitz. 493 00:22:34,440 --> 00:22:38,520 Speaker 1: And before we hear from Kirk, you really nailed something 494 00:22:38,560 --> 00:22:41,159 Speaker 1: on the KFA and Vikings radio network very early in 495 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:44,840 Speaker 1: the game. Former coach and player Pee Ursus, she sees it. Clearly. 496 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,200 Speaker 1: You knew we would run okay today because of what 497 00:22:48,240 --> 00:22:50,320 Speaker 1: they were going to do with their safeties, not only 498 00:22:50,359 --> 00:22:53,000 Speaker 1: because they kept getting scorched, which is a big reason 499 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 1: against Tennessee and Miami, but because of Jefferson and Hockinson. Okay, well, 500 00:22:57,840 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 1: we go for one hundred and thirty rushing yards five 501 00:23:01,240 --> 00:23:03,679 Speaker 1: and a half a clip and we still have no 502 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:07,600 Speaker 1: rushing touchdowns, but we ran the ball well. The quarterback 503 00:23:07,720 --> 00:23:10,760 Speaker 1: had a passer rating of almost one hundred. With three tds, 504 00:23:11,080 --> 00:23:12,560 Speaker 1: you're supposed to win those games. 505 00:23:12,640 --> 00:23:15,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, you are, and I think we're you know, you're 506 00:23:15,080 --> 00:23:17,720 Speaker 4: kind of seeing that, you know, Chandler, I thought did 507 00:23:17,760 --> 00:23:20,640 Speaker 4: a nice job. You know, Madison did a good job. 508 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 4: But the same thing that haunted us last year in 509 00:23:24,040 --> 00:23:26,440 Speaker 4: the running games has got us this year. And that's 510 00:23:26,680 --> 00:23:28,960 Speaker 4: when you're in the red zone, when it's third and short, 511 00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:31,720 Speaker 4: when you need to get that yard or two ball. 512 00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:33,359 Speaker 4: We and when we we just have to you know, 513 00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:35,239 Speaker 4: you look at Philadelphia and what they do. They just 514 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 4: line it up and mash it right, Jalen Hurts takes 515 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:41,280 Speaker 4: a snap and they just pushed that pile. We don't have. 516 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,880 Speaker 4: We're not getting that up front. We're just not We're 517 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:47,399 Speaker 4: just not able to grind out, you know, three feet 518 00:23:47,480 --> 00:23:50,520 Speaker 4: when we need it. And it showed up again today 519 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:52,440 Speaker 4: when we had a couple of shots at the two 520 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:55,600 Speaker 4: yard line and didn't get in. So you know, what 521 00:23:55,600 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 4: are your play you know your your play selection two 522 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:01,640 Speaker 4: you know, two runs and two passes. I don't know, man, 523 00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:06,880 Speaker 4: you become that's the next step, right, Okay, we ran 524 00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 4: the ball in between the hashes. It opened up some 525 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:11,439 Speaker 4: things in the play action game. Right, you're getting that 526 00:24:11,520 --> 00:24:13,760 Speaker 4: moving a little bit. You know, you're able to run 527 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,040 Speaker 4: by default just because of how the Chargers lined up, 528 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:17,920 Speaker 4: But when you get in that red zone and those 529 00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 4: safeties get in the box, right because there's not really 530 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,680 Speaker 4: there's no ground for them to cover. You know, we 531 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:26,080 Speaker 4: again struggled to run the football and that's been something 532 00:24:26,119 --> 00:24:28,600 Speaker 4: that's really been here for the last year or year 533 00:24:28,640 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 4: and a half now. 534 00:24:29,840 --> 00:24:35,520 Speaker 1: Kirk Cousins threw fifty passes, including three touchdowns, and the 535 00:24:35,640 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: Vikings lost by four. Here's Kirk oh following the. 536 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,680 Speaker 7: L disappointing to be oh and three. Disappointed to lose 537 00:24:42,680 --> 00:24:46,920 Speaker 7: the way we did. Left too many plays out there. 538 00:24:47,359 --> 00:24:48,919 Speaker 7: You have to score touchdowns in the red zone to 539 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,400 Speaker 7: win in this league. We didn't do that today. And 540 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:55,480 Speaker 7: you know, Chargers did a good job. They made plays 541 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,120 Speaker 7: and proud of the way guys battled. 542 00:24:59,320 --> 00:25:01,640 Speaker 8: I think we have a lot the playmakers on this team. 543 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,920 Speaker 8: I thought Justin was his usual self, thought TJ was great. 544 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,280 Speaker 7: Jordan Addison was big time and it's gonna become a 545 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:08,359 Speaker 7: big time player in this league. 546 00:25:08,400 --> 00:25:09,679 Speaker 8: Thought kJ was outstanding. 547 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:14,880 Speaker 7: So you know, I'm just continue to be a point 548 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 7: guard and distribute to those guys and uh try to 549 00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:19,960 Speaker 7: get better at doing that every week. But we gotta 550 00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:21,439 Speaker 7: we got we dug ourselves a hole and we got 551 00:25:21,440 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 7: a long way to climb out. 552 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:29,000 Speaker 8: So take any questions, you have a combination of factors. 553 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 8: I'd say not any one thing. I heard the last 554 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 8: play Kevin said that there couldn't hear him. Was that 555 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:38,360 Speaker 8: the noise was it head sag going in and out? 556 00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,119 Speaker 8: What was going on there? Yeah? I just couldn't hear 557 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:42,760 Speaker 8: him in the noise and just ended up calling a play. 558 00:25:42,760 --> 00:25:43,760 Speaker 7: And the play I called it was the same play 559 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:44,439 Speaker 7: he was trying to get to. 560 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 5: You never did fully hear him, You just kind. 561 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 8: Of yeah, I just I just called it. 562 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:51,600 Speaker 7: I just called a play that you know, and then 563 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:53,280 Speaker 7: we always practiced that, you know, if he had such goes out, 564 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:54,320 Speaker 7: what do you call? And I just called the play 565 00:25:54,320 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 7: and ended up being the same mone he wanted this and. 566 00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,199 Speaker 8: This kind of chaotic right there and you can't hear it. 567 00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:00,639 Speaker 7: Do you have the authority to go the clocket to 568 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 7: get guys to do that, or do you have to 569 00:26:02,200 --> 00:26:04,639 Speaker 7: just run and play with Well, I mean, I can 570 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,119 Speaker 7: do anything I want quarterback sneak it. 571 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:06,880 Speaker 8: I can do better I want. 572 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 7: But at the same time, you gotta also deal with 573 00:26:08,480 --> 00:26:09,800 Speaker 7: the consequence they don't against Buffalo. 574 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,000 Speaker 8: Last year, I snuck it on my own and they 575 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:11,439 Speaker 8: didn't get in. 576 00:26:11,560 --> 00:26:13,960 Speaker 7: So there, you know, until you know the future, it's 577 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,760 Speaker 7: hard to know whether to take the reins or not. 578 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:18,960 Speaker 7: But I've done it before and and uh, trying to 579 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:19,639 Speaker 7: make a habit of it. 580 00:26:19,680 --> 00:26:23,040 Speaker 4: Certainly process and not clocking there is that you said 581 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 4: that they can't sub and you. 582 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,200 Speaker 5: Can keep them cut on the heels. 583 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:29,439 Speaker 8: Uh, I don't know. You have to ask Kevin. I 584 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,040 Speaker 8: was just trying to do it, you know, trying to 585 00:26:31,040 --> 00:26:32,440 Speaker 8: get up and call play and go. 586 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:38,679 Speaker 5: Kking off. Look like actually get over to you just 587 00:26:38,680 --> 00:26:41,880 Speaker 5: got to stay in their arms. What do you try 588 00:26:42,040 --> 00:26:42,479 Speaker 5: the product? 589 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 7: I just told them to hank tough, nothing, nothing fancy 590 00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 7: in that moment. But he gave us everything he had 591 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 7: and everybody else did too. And you know that's why 592 00:26:54,040 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 7: it's it's deeply disappointing. 593 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 9: Did you haven't talked about the fact it's been out 594 00:27:00,520 --> 00:27:02,720 Speaker 9: and hold a team that has lost three before three 595 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 9: or round before. 596 00:27:03,320 --> 00:27:04,600 Speaker 5: You don't how to win a championship? 597 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,399 Speaker 9: What what's your level of optimism or do you have 598 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:09,359 Speaker 9: a message for the team that's at the moment and 599 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:10,800 Speaker 9: sting on three? 600 00:27:11,119 --> 00:27:13,880 Speaker 7: I mean, it's a long football season, and we're gonna 601 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:16,040 Speaker 7: be here in December and January talking to you guys, 602 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:20,159 Speaker 7: and this will feel like a long time ago. We 603 00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 7: got a lot of opportunities up ahead. I just try 604 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:24,960 Speaker 7: to go one and know each week I kind of 605 00:27:25,040 --> 00:27:27,000 Speaker 7: view him as separate stages, like a Tour de France, 606 00:27:27,119 --> 00:27:30,199 Speaker 7: and I don't really I don't really connect them, you know, 607 00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 7: I view him as one and oh and then whatever happens, 608 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:34,400 Speaker 7: you just kind of erase that week and you start 609 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:36,639 Speaker 7: a week fresh, and you just do that seventeen times 610 00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,960 Speaker 7: and see where you are in early mid January. That's 611 00:27:40,040 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 7: kind of how I operate. That's how our locker room operates. 612 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:45,920 Speaker 7: And nothing will change this week after. 613 00:27:46,240 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 1: After the Boss happened and Bill Rochester because of the. 614 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,200 Speaker 7: Payoff dollars, right, No, I think with the clock winded 615 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,440 Speaker 7: where it was, I felt like I'm gonna put this 616 00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:56,440 Speaker 7: off of TJ's frame and an ours or nobody's spot, 617 00:27:56,760 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 7: and it's like a clock and it's either ours for 618 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,280 Speaker 7: us down to win the game, or it's incomplete. I'm 619 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 7: gonna put it off away from his frame and to 620 00:28:04,840 --> 00:28:06,959 Speaker 7: a safe spot. You know, obviously don't expect the ball 621 00:28:07,000 --> 00:28:08,720 Speaker 7: to bounce up, you know, twice in the air and 622 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 7: get intercepted. But my thought was, quicker, I can get 623 00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 7: this thing out, put it to a safe spot. You know, 624 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,440 Speaker 7: we give ourselves another chance if in fact it is incomplete. 625 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,640 Speaker 5: Its having the type of ready. 626 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 7: I think it's it goes in stages and I think 627 00:28:30,160 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 7: there's there's explosiveness, there's playmaking, and then and then you know, 628 00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 7: it can be difficult to. 629 00:28:36,680 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 8: Sustain drive in and drive out. I thought we ran 630 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 8: the football really well today. 631 00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 7: And you know, I think we have the people we 632 00:28:44,720 --> 00:28:45,920 Speaker 7: need in the room to be able to do that. 633 00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 8: And so that show today. 634 00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:52,480 Speaker 7: And you're gonna have your spurts, but you know, you're 635 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 7: always looking to be you know, every single drive go 636 00:28:55,320 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 7: put up points. But the red zone I think was 637 00:28:57,360 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 7: the challenge. You're going for form in the red zone. 638 00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 7: I mean, that's then it's gonna be tough. 639 00:29:02,960 --> 00:29:05,000 Speaker 5: I have the touchdowns I've been the same in the 640 00:29:05,040 --> 00:29:06,000 Speaker 5: red zones and learner. 641 00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:10,200 Speaker 8: I would think it wouldn't be any one thing. 642 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:12,640 Speaker 7: I think it'd probably be a combination of, you know, 643 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 7: when you go to each play, what happened on. 644 00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 8: That specific play. 645 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:21,680 Speaker 7: And I don't think it's a repeating pattern. You know, 646 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:23,400 Speaker 7: just today we won for four and. 647 00:29:25,120 --> 00:29:25,880 Speaker 8: Gotta be better. 648 00:29:27,880 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 5: Throw it a kJ in there. 649 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 8: How did you feel about kind of the operation there. 650 00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:31,840 Speaker 5: At the wall placement? 651 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 8: Which one in the end zone? M Cleveland Just ye, 652 00:29:37,800 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 8: not a good thrill. 653 00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:40,520 Speaker 7: Got gotta put it on him, Gotta win the game 654 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:43,400 Speaker 7: of that thrill, and uh, she's getting through the progression 655 00:29:43,440 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 7: and led him to the front. Pilon needed to kind 656 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,120 Speaker 7: of lead him straight up the red line as opposed 657 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:48,560 Speaker 7: to the front. 658 00:29:48,560 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 8: Pilon, thanks guys. 659 00:29:54,440 --> 00:29:56,920 Speaker 1: Fifty passes. That's not even the most in his career. 660 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: Back when he was with Washington he threw fifty six 661 00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:02,080 Speaker 1: and fifty three. But uh, nevertheless, what do you think 662 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 1: of Cousins threw three? 663 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 4: Well, I what I liked about Cousins today, Paul was 664 00:30:06,560 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 4: he was moving around in the pocket a little bit more. 665 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 4: It's it's almost like he he he had a much 666 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:13,480 Speaker 4: better feel for the pass rush, something that we really 667 00:30:13,520 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 4: haven't seen out of him much in the last couple 668 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,720 Speaker 4: of seasons. So I was impressed with that part of 669 00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:23,080 Speaker 4: his game today. Uh, but he was just off a 670 00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:24,680 Speaker 4: little bit here and there right we you know, he 671 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:27,400 Speaker 4: had an intentional grounding, Uh you know that was that 672 00:30:27,480 --> 00:30:29,760 Speaker 4: was a rough call. And a couple other throws I 673 00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:33,160 Speaker 4: know he wish wished he had back. It's like, it's 674 00:30:33,200 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 4: like the timing of this offense is just not what 675 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:39,400 Speaker 4: it was a year ago. You know, these down the 676 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 4: field throws. He threw a beautiful pass to JJ on 677 00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:46,040 Speaker 4: the touchdown, a beautiful throw to kJ Osborne on the touchdown. 678 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 4: But there are other plays in there in the mix 679 00:30:49,200 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 4: where the ball, where the things are just a little 680 00:30:51,440 --> 00:30:54,600 Speaker 4: bit off. So we're missing something there in the passing 681 00:30:54,640 --> 00:30:56,840 Speaker 4: game and and what that is it's up to you know, 682 00:30:57,040 --> 00:30:59,760 Speaker 4: obviously the coaches to figure it out. But you know, 683 00:30:59,880 --> 00:31:02,320 Speaker 4: I'm saying this Cousins is thirty five years old and 684 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,440 Speaker 4: we're making it. We were having them throw forty to 685 00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,640 Speaker 4: fifty times a game. How long can you sustain that? 686 00:31:07,760 --> 00:31:12,680 Speaker 4: How long you know, can you sustain that much out 687 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,040 Speaker 4: of him? Because this is only week three, we still 688 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:17,920 Speaker 4: have fourteen games to go and a bye in December. 689 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,160 Speaker 4: Fourteen games to go, right, so, and you know, and 690 00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,680 Speaker 4: it's still a shot. You haven't played a divisional opponent yet, right, 691 00:31:24,720 --> 00:31:28,880 Speaker 4: so you had there, It's not it's not you know, 692 00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:31,240 Speaker 4: fold up shop and let's we'll see, you know, see 693 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 4: in a year. This is there's still a lot of 694 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,640 Speaker 4: football to be played. And but again we better find 695 00:31:36,640 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 4: some balance offensively because we're putting so much on Kirk Cousins. 696 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:44,360 Speaker 4: I just don't think I think it's just too much. 697 00:31:44,920 --> 00:31:45,200 Speaker 5: Now. 698 00:31:45,280 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: Since two thousand and two, when the league expanded and 699 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:54,440 Speaker 1: went to realignment, there only has been one team to 700 00:31:54,520 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: begin oh and three and make the postseason. That was 701 00:31:56,760 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: the twenty eighteen Houston Texans. The Minnesota Vikings fall to 702 00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:04,240 Speaker 1: owen three thanks to a loss at home to the 703 00:32:04,360 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 1: LA Chargers. Great job on the call as usual, Pete, appreciate. 704 00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:08,000 Speaker 3: You, Thank you, Paul. 705 00:32:08,360 --> 00:32:10,040 Speaker 4: You know, we got some new blood probably going to 706 00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:13,240 Speaker 4: be in next week on offense especially, so hopefully that 707 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 4: can provide a little bit of a shot in arm 708 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,000 Speaker 4: and a little bit a little bit more protection with 709 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:20,720 Speaker 4: Dalton Reisner and you know, I don't know, we'll see 710 00:32:20,720 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 4: cam Akers can he spark this team. 711 00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 3: It doesn't take much. So when you say. 712 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 4: You're zero and three, you get a little you get 713 00:32:27,280 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 4: a little spark from a couple of guys that can 714 00:32:29,120 --> 00:32:31,880 Speaker 4: really just turn things around. We're only a game like this, 715 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 4: You're only gonna play a two away. 716 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: That's Pete Bursuch, analyst for the Vikings Radio Network, and 717 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:40,680 Speaker 1: I'm Paul Allen, Minnesota, Oh and three LA Chargers one 718 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:45,040 Speaker 1: and two.
