1 00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:07,360 Speaker 1: Can you believe it is week eleven of Minnesota Vikings 2 00:00:07,360 --> 00:00:10,480 Speaker 1: football and we are riding at five game win streak 3 00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:13,960 Speaker 1: as we welcome you inside the TCO Radio studio for 4 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:17,480 Speaker 1: the Minnesota Vikings Podcast presented by Pepsi. My name is 5 00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 1: Gaye Panderson. I'm alongside Jay Nelson and Vikings dot Com 6 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,880 Speaker 1: to Tatum Everett and guys. This is a very unique season, 7 00:00:24,920 --> 00:00:26,920 Speaker 1: to say the least. Jay just dropped a stat on 8 00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,120 Speaker 1: me earlier before this show started. He says, we are 9 00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:33,560 Speaker 1: over halfway done in this season and we have only 10 00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: w three home games left. 11 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:38,239 Speaker 2: That is correct, Yeah, home game of our home game schedule. 12 00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,360 Speaker 2: We are currently seventy percent done, with the Monday night 13 00:00:41,360 --> 00:00:43,080 Speaker 2: game coming up being the eighth game out of our 14 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,959 Speaker 2: ten game home home season. So this season has absolutely 15 00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,959 Speaker 2: flown by, you know if you really think about it, 16 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,960 Speaker 2: like you said, week eleven, and we're done with seven 17 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:53,479 Speaker 2: of our home games including preseason. So for everybody that 18 00:00:53,840 --> 00:00:56,120 Speaker 2: is working behind the scenes and everything, it has been 19 00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 2: warp speed. It feels like this season. 20 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,480 Speaker 1: Warp speed indeed, and I'm so happy that the Vikings 21 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:02,320 Speaker 1: have finally got back in the win column when it 22 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,280 Speaker 1: comes to home games. They started the first five home 23 00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: games of the season, including the preseason. The Vikings had 24 00:01:08,319 --> 00:01:11,479 Speaker 1: lost these past two home games against the forty nine 25 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,479 Speaker 1: Ers and then this past week against the New Orleans Saints. 26 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: The Vikings have finally became victorious when it comes to 27 00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:19,640 Speaker 1: protecting your home. But now the Vikings go back on 28 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,520 Speaker 1: the road. But before we get there, Tatum, I want 29 00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:24,800 Speaker 1: to talk about just a twenty seven to nineteen victory 30 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,640 Speaker 1: over your hometown team, the New Orleans Saints. I know 31 00:01:27,680 --> 00:01:30,280 Speaker 1: you have family in town. They enjoyed the festivities, but 32 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:34,199 Speaker 1: still the Josh Dobbs effect came to party again. 33 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,360 Speaker 3: Oh yes, my family's been loving watching the Vikings. My 34 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,319 Speaker 3: mom was like, well, I watch your stuff so much. 35 00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 3: I don't even really know who was on the Saints 36 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 3: team anymore. So she's obviously her and my dad are 37 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:46,720 Speaker 3: definitely more Vikings fans than they are Saints fans currently. 38 00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:50,200 Speaker 3: My an and uncle were very impressed with the whole 39 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,560 Speaker 3: the whole bit. They loved everything about being in Minnesota. 40 00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 3: They thought everything was beautiful and cool. They loved the river, 41 00:01:56,520 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 3: they loved the stadium experience. Everything was just top notch 42 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 3: and it was really really cool to see that their 43 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 3: excitement in their eyes they were wearing Saints colors. I 44 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: will admit, so, hey, sorry to my uncle for beating 45 00:02:09,560 --> 00:02:11,920 Speaker 3: the Saints. I mean, they really gave us run for 46 00:02:11,960 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 3: the money towards the end of the second half. I think, 47 00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:17,919 Speaker 3: much too close for my comfortability after seeing this team 48 00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 3: for so long. Yeah, I really thought that when Jamis 49 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: got in there, we were going to be good to go, 50 00:02:23,240 --> 00:02:26,120 Speaker 3: and then he just kept throwing bombs and that one 51 00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,520 Speaker 3: to Chris o'lave was just ridiculous. And I don't know, 52 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:32,600 Speaker 3: this team just feels like they're back to being the 53 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 3: same team from last year, that they are just so 54 00:02:35,760 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 3: together and they're having fun and they're in it for 55 00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:41,679 Speaker 3: each other and next man up and all those things 56 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:44,600 Speaker 3: that they keep saying. It finally feels like it's like 57 00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 3: where they should have been at the beginning of the season, 58 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 3: but they hadn't quite gotten there yet. 59 00:02:48,440 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I think that's what makes the Buccaneers and 60 00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: Chargers loss early in the year that much more frustrating, 61 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:56,680 Speaker 1: because on this five game win streak, the Vikings are 62 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: beating really good teams and they're doing so decisively. And 63 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 1: it's not that the fact that we were losing to 64 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: those teams as far as the Buccaneers, Egles and Chargers, 65 00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,960 Speaker 1: even the Chiefs. We just beat ourselves. Jay, will you 66 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 1: look at just this win this past Sunday against the Saints. 67 00:03:10,800 --> 00:03:11,640 Speaker 1: What stands out to you? 68 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 2: I think for me it was the shotgun start at 69 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 2: the beginning in that first half, just to see how 70 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 2: complete that felt. That was the thing, Like, there wasn't 71 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 2: one person that had just completely taken over the game. 72 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:24,959 Speaker 2: You were getting insane play from everybody. You had the 73 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: rushing touchdown by Dobbs, which you all have seen the 74 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: footage at this point of even coming O'Connell going like, 75 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:31,799 Speaker 2: you know, wow, how do you do that? Kind of 76 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:37,000 Speaker 2: a thing. The Wildcat with ty Chandler and just TJ 77 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 2: having another crazy game. The fact that even in the 78 00:03:40,400 --> 00:03:42,680 Speaker 2: press box at halftime talking to some people, they're like, 79 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 2: I didn't see this coming this way, and it was 80 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 2: more of a just it was such a complete hammer down, 81 00:03:48,360 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 2: throttling that was happening. 82 00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: It was fun to watch. 83 00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:53,440 Speaker 2: I got texts from multiple people during the game saying 84 00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 2: this is really fun, and that was what I loved 85 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,880 Speaker 2: the most about it was just saying, yeah, this is 86 00:03:58,240 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: what everyone wants to see out of the offense and 87 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:04,600 Speaker 2: defensively they were stacking up and slowing everything down up 88 00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 2: until the you know, switch at quarterback. But in general, 89 00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 2: it was a fun game to watch as a Vikings fan. 90 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: I think it's just interesting because the losses earlier in 91 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: the season, it looked like we were already supposed to 92 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: have picked up where we left off last year. Offensively, 93 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,000 Speaker 1: you bring back JJ, you bring back Kirk, you have 94 00:04:21,080 --> 00:04:23,320 Speaker 1: the same offensive line. So the fact that we were 95 00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: losing while still having our same guys, it was a 96 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,599 Speaker 1: little frustrating. The fact that we're winning right now and 97 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,040 Speaker 1: we're still trying to figure it out, that's what makes 98 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 1: these wins, in my opinion, that much more fun. So 99 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: I'm just thinking about the locker room afterwards or Josh 100 00:04:38,400 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: Dobbs just living and soaking in this moment and being present, 101 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, hey, Vikings fans are enjoying this because 102 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 1: we don't know how long this is going to last. 103 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 1: But the fact that we're continuing to win. All you 104 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:50,480 Speaker 1: got to do at this point is getting too the playoffs, 105 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:52,880 Speaker 1: and I mean, we've seen crazier things happen here. 106 00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:55,479 Speaker 2: Jay, Well, for sure, it's the whole idea of do 107 00:04:55,520 --> 00:04:56,800 Speaker 2: you want to be good earlyer do you want to 108 00:04:56,800 --> 00:04:58,479 Speaker 2: be good late? You know, it's like, you know, you 109 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 2: ideally you want to good across the b but especially late. 110 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: Get later in the season and things are starting to click. 111 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: Those are the teams that can get scary. And I've 112 00:05:06,080 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 2: seen a lot of national media and stuff now talking 113 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: about this team, saying this team is doing certain things really, 114 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:15,040 Speaker 2: really well and other teams need to take notice because 115 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: of all of the stumbles, and everyone kind of went 116 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 2: they wrote them off early because of what happened with 117 00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:22,560 Speaker 2: the record. I think now, I think a lot of 118 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:25,400 Speaker 2: people felt like that wasn't necessarily who we were, and 119 00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:28,200 Speaker 2: now this is who we can have as our identity. 120 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 2: This is who we believe internally and now externally, who 121 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 2: this Vikings teams really is. 122 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 123 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 3: I mean, I might be drinking the purple kool aid, 124 00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: but I looked at my husband there night and I 125 00:05:37,240 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 3: was like, I really feel like the Vikings can win 126 00:05:39,160 --> 00:05:42,440 Speaker 3: this division. I see the way that teams can score 127 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:44,720 Speaker 3: on the Lions defense, and I think that they can 128 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 3: definitely be susceptible to very good offenses. They can score 129 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 3: with the best of them. Maybe they'll be shootouts, and 130 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:54,600 Speaker 3: I you know, knowing that this team is on this 131 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:57,240 Speaker 3: role where they are able to you know, I mean, 132 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,039 Speaker 3: and I think back that last season when like the 133 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:03,280 Speaker 3: defense was even in the middle of the pack, they 134 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 3: were last and leak and this year they're middle of 135 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 3: the pack, which is all we wanted them to be. 136 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:09,720 Speaker 3: We talked about this so much this offseason. They could 137 00:06:09,880 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 3: just get to fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, this will be good. 138 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,240 Speaker 3: And here they are, and look at what the team 139 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:15,880 Speaker 3: is able to do. 140 00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:18,159 Speaker 4: I don't know. I think it's a good Lions team. 141 00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 4: I do, I really do. 142 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 3: It's a really but I don't think that they're invincible 143 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:24,120 Speaker 3: by any means. 144 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: The Minnesota Vikings have to take care of business at 145 00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:29,800 Speaker 1: Malahi Stadium this upcoming Sunday. But at the same time, 146 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: we know that this is a Denver Broncos team that's 147 00:06:32,960 --> 00:06:35,679 Speaker 1: starting to figure out how to win games. It's ugly, 148 00:06:36,040 --> 00:06:38,280 Speaker 1: right Like the Chiefs gave them a victory, the Buffalo 149 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,160 Speaker 1: Bills gave them a victory this past week. But if 150 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,920 Speaker 1: you look at just keys to success for this Minnesota 151 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:46,720 Speaker 1: Vikings team, Tatum, what are some things that stand out 152 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 1: to you when facing this Denver Broncos team on Sunday Well. 153 00:06:50,080 --> 00:06:52,040 Speaker 3: One, I definitely think that this is going to be 154 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 3: a huge game for Ivan Pace with wearing the green 155 00:06:54,680 --> 00:06:58,200 Speaker 3: dot and being knowing that they've got such a good 156 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 3: tandem of in this Broncos offense. I'm a huge fan 157 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 3: of Javonte Williams and even what Jelia McLaughlin can do 158 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:10,000 Speaker 3: at times, and so I do think that that's going 159 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 3: to be a big point for this defense is how 160 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 3: are they going to function without their leader Jordan Hicks 161 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:18,280 Speaker 3: And what is Brian Flora is going to dial up? 162 00:07:19,280 --> 00:07:22,000 Speaker 3: I think for a lot of our guys too, there's 163 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 3: a lot of youth on our team and at certain 164 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 3: skill positions, especially with all of the newness on offense, 165 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 3: and that's going to be another key is just how 166 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,720 Speaker 3: to maintain the crowd and the altitude. 167 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 4: And just the big stage. 168 00:07:36,880 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 3: You know, this will be such a great precursor to 169 00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 3: Monday Night Football. Monday Foot will be in our stadium 170 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:45,680 Speaker 3: against the Bears. It's a game that really matters for 171 00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 3: the division. And so I think that if like the 172 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,840 Speaker 3: Sunday Night football is going to be a good warm 173 00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:53,440 Speaker 3: up to get ready for that divisional. 174 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:55,680 Speaker 2: Game that and as the national attention starts ramping up 175 00:07:55,680 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 2: more and more in this team, the more that we're 176 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 2: winning and you're getting in the primetime Sunday game, the 177 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:02,680 Speaker 2: primetime night game, we're going to be playing a heated 178 00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 2: game on Christmas Eve, a heated game on New Year's Eve. 179 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:07,040 Speaker 1: It's just gonna. 180 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,320 Speaker 2: Help feed for this team the ability of you're probably 181 00:08:10,360 --> 00:08:12,160 Speaker 2: gonna have some bright spotlights coming up here if we 182 00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:14,400 Speaker 2: keep doing what we're doing. And so, yeah, like you said, 183 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 2: it's perfect precursor for that. I'm gonna stay with you, J. 184 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 2: What are some cases success? I think the biggest thing 185 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 2: for me has been the difference between the front end 186 00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 2: of the season and the back end, especially here in 187 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:26,040 Speaker 2: the last couple weeks with all the changes that have happened, 188 00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:30,000 Speaker 2: has been the difference in turnovers. If you think about 189 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 2: what Denver did against Buffalo, they were capitalizing on they 190 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: had three different turnovers, and there was a bunch of 191 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,319 Speaker 2: other crazy stuff that happened watching that game. But when 192 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 2: it comes to like the interceptions in the first half, 193 00:08:40,600 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: the fumbles, all of that kind of stuff, the bounces 194 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:45,959 Speaker 2: seem to go the way for Denver, but that means 195 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 2: that they're being opportunistic and they're creating those chances. So 196 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 2: for me, offensively, take what's given to you and be 197 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 2: smart about kind of your decisions, and you want to 198 00:08:55,000 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: fight for those extra yards. But at the same point, 199 00:08:57,040 --> 00:08:59,480 Speaker 2: they're ballhawks and they're going to be looking to create 200 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: some opportunity there. So for me, as we said from 201 00:09:01,720 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 2: the beginning, minimize those turnovers and I think this. 202 00:09:04,320 --> 00:09:06,160 Speaker 1: Team is going to be just fine. Those are really 203 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 1: good points. I mean, the Denver Broncos have forced nine 204 00:09:08,679 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: turnovers in their wins against the Chiefs and the Bills, 205 00:09:11,720 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 1: and we look at those two games, a lot of 206 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,959 Speaker 1: those turnovers were kind of self inflicted by both of 207 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: those teams. So you just hope that the Vikings can't 208 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:20,400 Speaker 1: continue to just nickel and dime their way down the 209 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: field and make the players that are right in front 210 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,800 Speaker 1: of them. My key to Sunday is just win the crowd. 211 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 1: This is a Denver Broncos team. That's when the three 212 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 1: game win streak, the atmosphere is going to be crazy. 213 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:33,960 Speaker 1: I mean, we've been to Mile High Stadium before, but 214 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: the fact that they're starting to figure this thing out 215 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: and they had a road game on Monday night football 216 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,960 Speaker 1: last week, everybody is going to be excited about that 217 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 1: game in Denver. So if you win the crowd early, 218 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 1: win the trenches early, and just don't make mistakes. I 219 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,400 Speaker 1: believe our team on paper is the better team. So 220 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: that's just my keys to the game. But I want 221 00:09:51,679 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: to hear someone else's keys to the game because they 222 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: have been This person has been key to this Minnesota 223 00:09:57,240 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 1: Vikings team getting some big time explosive of plays these 224 00:10:00,760 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 1: past couple of weeks.

It involved a 260 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,480 Speaker 1: touchdown being called back. So just being able to stay 261 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:05,520 Speaker 1: locked in during all these moments of adversity.

So I 437 00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,120 Speaker 3: think this is gonna be a huge game for them. 438 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:33,440 Speaker 3: The ability for them to be playing so much together 439 00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,920 Speaker 3: and to I think it's been two penalties in the 440 00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:40,240 Speaker 3: last two games from them, but no, this offensive line 441 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,760 Speaker 3: is playing so well and it's gonna be great for 442 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:44,879 Speaker 3: someone like ty Chandler to be able to be behind 443 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,800 Speaker 3: them and to create created It all starts in the trenches. 444 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:51,240 Speaker 3: We've always said that, So I like the offensive line, oh. 445 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,200 Speaker 1: Line, Dalton Reisner going back to his own stuffing grounds. 446 00:19:54,200 --> 00:19:56,480 Speaker 2: I always love when the O line guys get the 447 00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:57,320 Speaker 2: credit and stuff like that. 448 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,159 Speaker 3: I've been really pumping it up to see. I mean, 449 00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 3: we've done two offensive line Game Day Live interviews, almost 450 00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,479 Speaker 3: at a third this week. But I was like, Tatum, 451 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,320 Speaker 3: you're gonna need to give a pace yourself. 452 00:20:06,520 --> 00:20:09,520 Speaker 2: Hey, boys like the attention to big boys, need love 453 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 2: jay on you. For me, I think the biggest thing 454 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:16,160 Speaker 2: is going to be going against another Sean Payton team. 455 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 2: Knowing what those kind of games have been like over 456 00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 2: the last decade, this is going to be a drap dead, 457 00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:25,080 Speaker 2: you know, slugfest. I think as much as we've relied 458 00:20:25,080 --> 00:20:27,199 Speaker 2: on a guy like TJ Hockinson, they're going to be 459 00:20:27,240 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 2: spying that. Defensively, I think the running game is going 460 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,200 Speaker 2: to be even more important this week. But a guy 461 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 2: like TJ, and then depending on what happens roster wise, 462 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 2: with some of the guys that are banged up, I 463 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 2: think they just still have to attack. I don't think 464 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:43,920 Speaker 2: we can go into a shell. You're gonna have to attack, 465 00:20:43,960 --> 00:20:46,520 Speaker 2: and especially defensively for those guys the corner is going 466 00:20:46,560 --> 00:20:48,240 Speaker 2: to be sitting on stuff. Make them pay for it. 467 00:20:48,280 --> 00:20:51,640 Speaker 1: If you're trying to make Russell Wiltson feel like he's 468 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,399 Speaker 1: not himself, you have to disguise your blitz. He's a 469 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 1: most sat quarterback since twenty twelve, so there's gonna be 470 00:20:57,640 --> 00:21:01,040 Speaker 1: plenty of opportunities to throw different disguises, throw different looks 471 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 1: his way. So I'm excited to see what that looks like. 472 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 2: All right, Gabe, you're up last. 473 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:08,120 Speaker 1: Got what I like about this upcoming Sunday night football 474 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 1: matchup is our run game. Like I know you talked Oline, Jay, 475 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:14,440 Speaker 1: you talk just a combination of things. But the fact 476 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,760 Speaker 1: that the Buffalo Bills. James Cook had over one hundred 477 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: yards rushing on nine carries and he had a fumble. 478 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: That gives me a lot of confidence in our running 479 00:21:22,520 --> 00:21:24,479 Speaker 1: back room being able to make some of those plays. 480 00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,639 Speaker 1: This is the worst run defense in the NFL, in 481 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:30,520 Speaker 1: the Denver Broncos, giving up almost one hundred and fifty 482 00:21:30,560 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 1: yards per game. So just do what you need to do, 483 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,119 Speaker 1: don't turn the ball over, have fun out there, but 484 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,680 Speaker 1: also run through those tackles. So I'm excited to see 485 00:21:37,680 --> 00:21:38,280 Speaker 1: what that looks like. 486 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,160 Speaker 4: I bet Ty's chumping, I think. 487 00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: So we talked to Ty and Ty was saying, well, 488 00:21:44,600 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: we brought it up the fact that the first time 489 00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,439 Speaker 1: we ever saw Ty Chandler have a big game was 490 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:52,560 Speaker 1: last year, preseason week number two or three against the 491 00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:55,160 Speaker 1: Denver Broncos.
