18
00:00:55,720 --> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 3: how did you enjoy your Monday night?

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,240
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it.

20
00:00:58,440 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 3: I enjoyed it. Yeah, I especially enjoyed it when they

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:04,000
Speaker 3: hit those and when they got the scrambled play JJ

22
00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:07,039
Speaker 3: got to scrambled play out and hit Colston on the

23
00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 3: crossing route.

24
00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:10,080
Speaker 2: Then they scored.

25
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:13,039
Speaker 3: I was really happy about that, but I was really

26
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 3: just proud of Jim. I think you know, that team,

27
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:18,480
Speaker 3: their faith, the connection they have with one another.

28
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 2: They truly are a family.

29
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,960
Speaker 3: I think Jim talked about his football family and his

30
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 3: family at home. Those two things are something we talk

31
00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: about here. Being one hundred percent committed to both of

32
00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:32,040
Speaker 3: those two things will take you far. And that team

33
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:37,560
Speaker 3: is kind of epitomizes that. So congratulations to Michigan. Congratulations

34
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 3: with my brother John.

35
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 4: You don't get to like kind of take in a

36
00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 4: game of that magnitude like that as a fan too often.

37
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 4: I don't know when the last time was, but like,

38
00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,240

Speaker 2: It was different and fun?

42
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 3: I mean I tell you it was really taken with

43
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 3: the crowd. I mean, you know, it was on the

44
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,280
Speaker 3: sideline for a little while, gad you have a little

45
00:01:58,360 --> 00:02:00,600
Speaker 3: hugged there, then got up into the stands, was with

46
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 3: our family and the stadium was just rock and it

47
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 3: was stuffed with people, you know, half and half and

48
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,920
Speaker 3: really so when Michigan's defense was on the field, their

49
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 3: fans were just screaming at the top of their lungs.

50
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:13,400
Speaker 2: It was deafening.

51
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 3: Then when Washington's defense was on the field, their fans

52
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 3: were screaming at the top of their lungs and it

53
00:02:17,600 --> 00:02:19,960
Speaker 3: was deafening. So it was definiting the whole time. There

54
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,280
Speaker 3: was no break, you know, and they were they were

55
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 3: you know, half a stadium was as loud as really

56
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 3: any stadium I've been in. It was enclosed, the bands,

57
00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 3: the students, you know, the whole college thing was was

58
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,320
Speaker 3: really electric. It was really powerful.

59
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 7: Watch that game. Do you watch it as a fan

60
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,680
Speaker 7: or does any other them that do you watch as.

61
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,840
Speaker 3: A I mean I watch it as as a fan mostly,

62
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 3: you know, I can I know what coverages are in,

63
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 3: I know it fronts are and I can. I'm looking

64
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:44,799
Speaker 3: at that a little bit, you know, and with with

65
00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 3: some some interest, but more than that, you know, I'm

66
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:51,919
Speaker 3: probably you know, just a little nervous, you know, and hoping.

67
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,280
Speaker 2: For good outcomes, you know, as a fan. It just

68
00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:53,840
Speaker 2: like a fan with.

69
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:57,000
Speaker 8: Topped him on the sideline. It looked like he was

70
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 8: really locked in and maybe didn't know what was going on.

71
00:02:58,840 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 5: With whatever.

72
00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:01,560
Speaker 3: I think, Yeah, I think, well, it's funny because I've

73
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 3: been asked that, you know, and I forget what we

74
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 3: talked about, to be honest with you, but but he

75
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 3: did kind of he kind of looked up and he went, oh, John, Hey,

76
00:03:09,320 --> 00:03:10,480
Speaker 3: they might have said you made it.

77
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:13,640
Speaker 5: You know. Uh so, but it was just great. It

78
00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,119
Speaker 5: was well.

79
00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,800
Speaker 3: What happened was I'd been down there for about five

80
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:19,919
Speaker 3: or ten minutes of the game and they were going,

81
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:22,240
Speaker 3: he was working, and then the ball came that way

82
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 3: and there was a time out, and he was just

83
00:03:23,400 --> 00:03:25,040
Speaker 3: like ten feet away from me, you know. So I'm like,

84
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 3: that's my opportunity, you know, so I rushed it at

85
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: that point when you see.

86
00:03:29,800 --> 00:03:31,919
Speaker 9: Your brother hoisting up the trophy and you see the

87
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,519
Speaker 9: confetti down and your parents on the field, and you

88
00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 9: start to kind of envision maybe yourself maybe being there

89
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,240
Speaker 9: in that same type of spot a couple of weeks.

90
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:42,880
Speaker 3: Of course, like like like any brother or sibling, you know,

91
00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,280
Speaker 3: you you know, your brother gets something you wanted to write,

92
00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 3: you know, uh and I you do though, I think

93
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 3: just from a and Eric had mentioned that too afterwards

94
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 3: when we were walking off the field. You're down there,

95
00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: you see the team, hugging give you become a part

96
00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 3: of the celebration and the confetti and the jubilation and

97
00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 3: the years, and he just kind of sinks in and

98
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 3: it's like, man, you know, I really want to experience

99
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 3: this for our team. I want our team to experience this,

100
00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: you know. And that's that's the big picture. That's the

101
00:04:12,720 --> 00:04:16,320
Speaker 3: ultimate goal for the season. And then with that back

102
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,239
Speaker 3: to one day at a time, when play at a time.

103
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 10: Get a tattoo to on our team or at season.

104
00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:26,280
Speaker 3: You know, I kind of like I told my wife

105
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 3: and daughter, they get first DIBs on the tattoos, probably choices,

106
00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:36,800
Speaker 3: but a Super Bowl championship would be pretty tempting this team.

107
00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 11: Just as soon as the season ended, You've had at

108
00:04:39,279 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 11: least three assistants had had this permission requested from other teams.

109
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:46,160
Speaker 6: Uh, what can you say about that?

110
00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 12: And how do you balanced that.

111
00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 5: Versus what you're also working on now? Right?

112
00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:53,159
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, that's I say.

113
00:04:53,160 --> 00:04:53,640
Speaker 2: It's great.

114
00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:55,840
Speaker 3: I say I'm really proud of our guys. I think

115
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 3: I've said many times I think we have the best

116
00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:02,800
Speaker 3: coaching staff in the world U And I love our coaches.

117
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 3: I love the jobs they do. I think we have

118
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 3: a bunch of coaches. They are gonna be coordinators and

119
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,720
Speaker 3: they're gonna be head coaches. On the staff are gonna

120
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,880
Speaker 3: be very successful. Uh for a long time. It's just

121
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:16,360
Speaker 3: a great staff. So I think any opportunities that they get,

122
00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 3: you know, I support and I'm excited for them to

123
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 3: have those opportunities. It really doesn't there's really no balance

124
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 3: with it at all, though, because everything they do with

125
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,080
Speaker 3: the interview is set up outside of the work here.

126
00:05:26,560 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 3: So they do their full obligation here throughout the course

127
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,800
Speaker 3: of the week, and then there's one two. Some guys

128
00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,360
Speaker 3: have three interviews, but that's all done either late at night,

129
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,920
Speaker 3: later in the evening, or possibly on the weekend if

130
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,480
Speaker 3: they have some time.

131
00:05:38,680 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 13: Coach people talk about rest firus rush on rushed. You

132

00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,479
Speaker 13: RUSS can possibly keep it playing every teens.

134
00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, it's it's it's more, it's not really about that.

135
00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 2: I don't think. I don't.

136

138
00:05:57,400 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: In every single area.

Speaker 14: Uh.

141
00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 3: One of the things we talked about was you know,

142
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 3: you know, be your own biggest critic, you know, And

143
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 3: in terms of being your own biggest critic, and this

144
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,120
Speaker 3: week and trying to improve in every area you can,

145
00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:14,440
Speaker 3: you're also your own biggest advocate. So advocate for yourself

146
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:17,440
Speaker 3: by being critical of yourself and try to do the

147
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:19,800
Speaker 3: best you can to become as good as you can

148
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:23,120
Speaker 3: or better this week in terms of making improvement, and

149
00:06:23,160 --> 00:06:25,400
Speaker 3: then we'll be ready and prepared for what's ahead of us.

150
00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:29,320
Speaker 8: Your first impressions with Dalvin Cook and when you got him,

151
00:06:29,400 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 8: you view him as an insurance policy or hey, come

152
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:34,120
Speaker 8: on and let start competings.

153
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 3: Let's see, we view him as a very valuable or

154
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:44,000
Speaker 3: potential potentially very valuable weapon on our offense. So obviously,

155
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:47,760
Speaker 3: I mean Dalvin Cook is is a high pedigree player,

156
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:52,360
Speaker 3: highly decorated player, and he's still got talent and ability,

157
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:55,400
Speaker 3: and he's smart, he's in great shape, he's in football shape,

158
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:58,240
Speaker 3: he's been playing football. Look very good in practice out

159
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,080
Speaker 3: here today. So I think he's gonna be a you know,

160
00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:03,719
Speaker 3: valuable part of our team in the playoffs.

161
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 15: Here, do you start to look this week at all

162
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:08,600
Speaker 15: as potentially who's your postchase.

163
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,720
Speaker 6: Or is that too much coming at you.

164
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,000
Speaker 15: And also on that if you do, is it helpful

165
00:07:13,040 --> 00:07:14,400
Speaker 15: to ones that in you blood where.

166
00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:17,080
Speaker 3: You senor Yeah, yes to both questions. I mean, we

167
00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 3: definitely know that there's the four teams that we could play,

168
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 3: and we're all looking at them. You know, we're going

169
00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:22,960
Speaker 3: back and look at him the people that we played

170
00:07:22,960 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 3: most recently. You know, we have that we've seen more

171
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 3: on people we haven't played, like Houston, we haven't played

172
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 3: for a while. We've got to obviously get to work on.

173
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 3: But that's kind of what the coaches are doing. We're

174
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:35,400
Speaker 3: we're looking at every single possible team we could play

175
00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 3: and you know, building ideas for those games.

176
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:39,200
Speaker 2: John.

177
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 5: On that note, Joe Placco being the Browns.

178
00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:46,640
Speaker 10: This weekend, how do you approach that?

179
00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:48,760
Speaker 12: I mean, are you sort of cheering for the man?

180
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:50,840
Speaker 16: Are you?

181
00:07:50,840 --> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 17: You know you can separate basic performents from living off

182
00:07:54,960 --> 00:07:56,160
Speaker 17: for the brown How does that work?

183
00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 5: Yeah?

184
00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:59,840
Speaker 3: I mean, well, I mean I love Joe, you know,

185
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,000
Speaker 3: and we've we've texted back and forth a number of

186
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,040
Speaker 3: times since then. It's been it's been fun. You know,

187
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,080
Speaker 3: I'm really I'm happy for him and for his family.

188
00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 3: I'm excited for him, and you know, It really doesn't

189
00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,360
Speaker 3: matter what team, you know, you got someone playing for.

190
00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 2: I always say I never never been.

191
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:15,280
Speaker 3: My dad was always a coach, So we we never

192
00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 3: really were too much fans of teams. We were, especially

193
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,640
Speaker 3: in football, we were fans of friends and family. You know,

194
00:08:21,640 --> 00:08:24,160
Speaker 3: That's what we root it for. So Joe's a friend

195
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,880
Speaker 3: and family to me, So heck, yeah I root for

196
00:08:26,960 --> 00:08:30,760
Speaker 3: Joe Flacco, But you know, I don't root for the

197
00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,600
Speaker 3: you know, any opponent that we're playing. So it doesn't

198
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:37,960
Speaker 3: really matter this week. We'll play whoever, whoever wins. You know,

199
00:08:38,000 --> 00:08:41,280
Speaker 3: we're taking on all all comers, so to speak. And

200
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,679
Speaker 3: then if it comes to that we're playing Joe or

201
00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:45,320
Speaker 3: and we know a lot of people on other teams too.

202
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 3: Whoever you're playing, they become the opponent, you know, and

203
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,520
Speaker 3: you're trying to defeat the opponent by any means necessary.

204
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 8: Michael Pierce, thatid alluded to you're planning to do a

205
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:56,680
Speaker 8: stadium walk through?

206
00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:57,160
Speaker 2: Is that?

207
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 8: Is that still the plan for Saturday? And I can't

208
00:08:59,559 --> 00:09:01,000
Speaker 8: remember for the was something you did the last time

209
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:03,720
Speaker 8: you had to buy but kind of what went into maybe.

210
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:04,040
Speaker 5: Maybe doing that.

211
00:09:04,559 --> 00:09:06,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're gonna have a practice on Saturday at the

212
00:09:06,200 --> 00:09:07,200
Speaker 3: stadium one o'clock.

213
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: It's just it's a practice.

214
00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 3: It be the normal practice we would do here. We

215
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,960
Speaker 3: just actually kind of sat down and talked about and

216
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,600
Speaker 3: it came up in the conversation, Hey how about we

217
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 3: take it to the stadium just to keep a rhythm.

218
00:09:19,280 --> 00:09:21,600
Speaker 3: We didn't I don't think we practiced on Saturday last time.

219
00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 3: That was a long time ago, but we didn't really

220
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,480
Speaker 3: practice on Saturday. But we thought that would kind of

221
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 3: put us in more of a rhythm, you know, in

222
00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 3: terms of the pace of possibly type, you know, as

223
00:09:31,440 --> 00:09:32,760
Speaker 3: if you were playing a game this weekend.

224
00:09:33,240 --> 00:09:37,120
Speaker 10: So some weeks un practice would improve it and take

225
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 10: us out. Just what's the practice mentality of this movie?

226
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:44,760
Speaker 10: Because you don't have the Ustaria upomu to the COVID.

227
00:09:44,440 --> 00:09:48,760
Speaker 3: Team, right, the mentality is to is to have the

228
00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:53,000
Speaker 3: to do our best, to have our best practice today

229
00:09:53,640 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 3: so that were can be best prepared for when the

230
00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:58,480
Speaker 3: time comes when our best is going to be required,

231
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,240
Speaker 3: which is a week from this weekend. So it's really

232
00:10:02,240 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 3: focused on one play and one day at a time.

233
00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:08,120
Speaker 3: This week, stack up some good days and be the

234
00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:10,319
Speaker 3: best football team we can be coming out of these

235
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:13,080
Speaker 3: four practices going into the preparation that we can.

236
00:10:13,760 --> 00:10:16,200
Speaker 9: It's good to know that the four teams that you

237
00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 9: could potentially play, you played all those teams at some

238
00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:20,480
Speaker 9: point this season.

239
00:10:20,480 --> 00:10:22,959
Speaker 6: Two of them you played twice to this point, right.

240
00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:23,880
Speaker 2: Well, it is helpful.

241
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:25,840
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it just most teams are familiar

242
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:27,559
Speaker 3: with each other to some degree. You know, like if

243
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,560
Speaker 3: you haven't played somebody, it's a little tougher. But the

244
00:10:29,600 --> 00:10:33,400
Speaker 3: fact that we played all four teams, Uh, everybody knows

245
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:33,840
Speaker 3: each other.

246
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:34,200
Speaker 5: You know.

247
00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,559
Speaker 3: It's gonna be about going out there and putting a

248
00:10:36,600 --> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 3: great game. Playing together, of course, but uh, just playing

249
00:10:39,920 --> 00:10:41,080
Speaker 3: your best football.

250
00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:45,600
Speaker 14: Knowing you're gonna be at home for this first game.

251
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,079
Speaker 12: You haven't had that in a while in the postseason.

252
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:51,360
Speaker 3: That agenda, Well, it's gonna be great. I mean, being

253
00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:53,560
Speaker 3: at home any game is great. We love being at

254
00:10:53,559 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 3: home here and uh, I'm looking forward to.

255
00:10:56,400 --> 00:11:02,240
Speaker 1: It, say coach John Harball. We also talk with quarterback

256
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,920
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson, who is named by the local media here

257
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:09,080
Speaker 1: in Baltimore as the team's MVP for the twenty twenty

258
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:09,640
Speaker 1: three season.

259
00:11:10,600 --> 00:11:12,719
Speaker 18: Going on, everybody, I'm Luke Jones and just wanted to

260
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,319
Speaker 18: take a brief moment here on behalf of the local

261
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:18,319
Speaker 18: media and the Baltimore chapter of the PFWA to announce

262
00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,200
Speaker 18: the Ravens team MVP for the twenty twenty three season.

263
00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:25,080
Speaker 18: As you might expect, the vote was unanimous. But I know,

264
00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,160
Speaker 18: as much as this individual will say he didn't do

265
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:29,480
Speaker 18: it alone, I think it's pretty clear the Ravens wouldn't

266
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:30,839
Speaker 18: be in the spot they're in right now as the

267
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:34,480
Speaker 18: number one seed heading into the postseason without his spectacular

268
00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:37,240
Speaker 18: play over the course of the season. So I have

269
00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,559
Speaker 18: a hunch he might get a few more honors over

270
00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,760
Speaker 18: the course of the next few weeks. But the twenty

271
00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:44,440
Speaker 18: twenty three Ravens MVP, as voted by the local media

272
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:45,679
Speaker 18: is Lamar Jackson.

273
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:52,480

Speaker 19: That you've had with that you can for that's Uh,

375
00:15:57,200 --> 00:15:59,680
Speaker 19: it's very important for our guys to do their job.

376
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 2: You know, they sppost to block.

377
00:16:01,280 --> 00:16:03,080

Speaker 19: back in the pocket and just let things happen develop

385
00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 19: and just throw strikes. But they I believe they got

386
00:16:20,600 --> 00:16:22,920
Speaker 19: better throughout the season. You know, guy's going down, you know,

387

427
00:18:01,440 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 10: this year. I'm wondering he sat encouraging to see and

428
00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:07,199
Speaker 10: to sort of take pride watching a guy maybe like c. J.

429
00:18:07,280 --> 00:18:09,639
Speaker 14: Stroud who is a rookie and made it in his

430
00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:10,160
Speaker 14: first year.

431
00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's great to see.

432
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:15,960

433
00:18:16,080 --> 00:18:20,200
Speaker 19: you know, stuff is evolving, Guys are just being great.

434
00:18:20,200 --> 00:18:21,760
Speaker 19: You know, it's just showing off their true talent. And

435
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,160
Speaker 19: cz Strode tremendous quarterback. I told him when we played

436
00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:27,240
Speaker 19: against him earlier this season, the first game of the season,

437
00:18:27,240 --> 00:18:29,320
Speaker 19: I'm like, bro, you.

438
00:18:28,960 --> 00:18:29,960
Speaker 2: You amazing out there.

439
00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,800
Speaker 19: You know, college not even nothing compared to how he

440
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,359
Speaker 19: is right now. You know, just from me watching from Afar,

441
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:39,680
Speaker 19: he's a great quarterback. And for other quarter black quarterbacks

442
00:18:39,720 --> 00:18:42,159
Speaker 19: to be playing the playoffs, that's tremendous. You know, hopefully

443
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:46,880
Speaker 19: more guys be included. Uh as years gone, I've.

444
00:18:46,920 --> 00:18:49,080
Speaker 5: Seen you know, this is your most accurate year in

445
00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:50,480
Speaker 5: terms of completion percentage.

446
00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,679
Speaker 21: How much of that do you think is attributable to

447
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 21: the footwork development you bet you've kind of put in

448
00:18:55,359 --> 00:18:56,600
Speaker 21: over the years.

449
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:57,520
Speaker 17: Uh.

450
00:18:57,600 --> 00:19:00,359
Speaker 19: I believe everything you know plays his part, you know,

451
00:19:00,600 --> 00:19:05,280
Speaker 19: just maturity, footwork, studying everything, you know, just trying to

452
00:19:05,320 --> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 19: be a better player, trying to be a great player

Speaker 2: get better at everything.

00:19:13,040 --> 00:19:14,720
Speaker 19: So I believe that's what's helping me out, you know,

457
00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:15,920
Speaker 19: with the accuracy and stuff like that.

00:19:42,160 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 19: footed and stuff like that.

470
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:45,760
Speaker 2: I'm like, damn, this guy, he's all mechanic, you know.

471
00:19:46,880 --> 00:19:48,159
Speaker 19: But you know, if we if we playing, you know,

472
00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 19: just hopefully he'll be you know, just showing off the

473
00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:51,560
Speaker 19: Joe elite then, you know.

474
00:19:52,560 --> 00:19:54,400
Speaker 2: But yeah, it'd be great to play against him though.

475
00:19:54,680 --> 00:19:56,119
Speaker 6: Ama, how's it this week for you?

476
00:19:56,240 --> 00:19:56,399
Speaker 5: Are you?

477
00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:59,240
Speaker 19: Are you antsy at all to get to the game

478
00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:03,720
Speaker 19: or you know, but uh, I gotta you know, I

479
00:20:03,800 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 19: gotta stay locked in on what's you know, what's ahead.

480
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 19: And we have nothing to hit right now, you know,

481
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 19: we just practicing, trying to get better, you know, for

482
00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,360
Speaker 19: whoever our opponent is next week.

483
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,400
Speaker 2: But I'm I'm definitely assy though.

484
00:20:15,560 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 6: Practicing without an opponent not know him. You know where

485
00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:18,600
Speaker 6: you are now?

486
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:19,679
Speaker 2: Not if you're.

487
00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 4: Mentioned how we kind of sort of said for them

488
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,359
Speaker 4: this year, how much more like freedom you had at

489
00:20:27,359 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 4: the last Gramma, especially.

490
00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:29,359
Speaker 5: In the system.

491
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,399
Speaker 13: I wonder like, how did you approach that?

492
00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:33,919
Speaker 9: And just like in in the bigger picture, how did

493
00:20:33,920 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 9: you develop the way you see if the way you

494
00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:37,720
Speaker 9: read a game in word?

495
00:20:38,400 --> 00:20:39,480
Speaker 2: Uh, well, it's start of course.

496
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:39,720
Speaker 12: Mark.

497
00:20:39,800 --> 00:20:41,280
Speaker 19: You know he already he told me when when he

498
00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:42,880
Speaker 19: first got here. You know, he texted me actually because

499
00:20:42,880 --> 00:20:44,320
Speaker 19: I was down to the Florida he was up here.

500
00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,160
Speaker 19: I guess he was telling me, No, know, I'm'm gonna

501
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:47,520
Speaker 19: get the kids to the offense. You know it's up,

502
00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:49,840
Speaker 19: but you have made certain decisions at the line. If

503
00:20:49,880 --> 00:20:51,360
Speaker 19: you don't like it, you know, put us in a better,

504
00:20:51,920 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 19: better situation. But if you mess up, it's gonna be

505
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 19: on you, you know so. And I'm cool with that,

506
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:58,560
Speaker 19: you know, cause I'm I'm seeing the field. I'm I'm

507
00:20:58,560 --> 00:20:59,959
Speaker 19: seeing the field and I'm out there on the one,

508
00:21:00,160 --> 00:21:01,960
Speaker 19: you know, gotta make things happen with my teammates and

509
00:21:02,000 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 19: I and I can't give you.

510
00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:05,400
Speaker 2: A secret on how I see the game.

511
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:07,840
Speaker 5: You know that, I just give you that.

512
00:21:10,119 --> 00:21:11,800
Speaker 21: How did you kind of develop the skills to do

513
00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:14,600
Speaker 21: you know, some of the jump passes and sidearn throws

514
00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 21: that the senior make this this year.

515
00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:19,159
Speaker 2: Just delivering the baby, you know. I'm just trying to

516
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,199
Speaker 2: deliver the baby to my guys, you know, that's all.

517
00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:23,920
Speaker 19: That's all I'm trying to do. Just get the ball

518
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:26,400
Speaker 19: to the to to the playmakers. That's my job.

519
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:27,480
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not tryna.

520
00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,200
Speaker 19: I can't run a hand it to him, you know,

521
00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:31,639
Speaker 19: so I gotta try my best to you know, my

522
00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:33,439
Speaker 19: ability to get the ball to those guys and let

523
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:34,920
Speaker 19: them do the rest, you know, just like you know,

524
00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:35,600
Speaker 19: probably weak to.

525
00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:36,360
Speaker 2: The Dolphins game.

526
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 19: I gotta get the ball to those guys and we see,

527
00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:40,840
Speaker 19: we all seeing what they can do with the ball

528
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:42,680
Speaker 19: in their hands. So I just gotta do my job

529
00:21:42,720 --> 00:21:43,960
Speaker 19: to keep trying to distribute the ball.

530
00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:46,520
Speaker 12: At this point, six years into your career.

531
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:49,360
Speaker 14: You you talked to OBJ before he signed, You talked

532
00:21:49,400 --> 00:21:52,480
Speaker 14: to Dalvin Cook. Yeah, how important is that role for

533
00:21:52,560 --> 00:21:54,440
Speaker 14: you at this point in your career to be able

534
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:55,359
Speaker 14: to recruit guys?

535
00:21:55,480 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 12: And what is your pitch?

536
00:21:57,280 --> 00:21:58,240
Speaker 5: Are you a good Yeah?

537
00:21:58,240 --> 00:21:59,399
Speaker 14: Obviously a pretty good recruit.

538
00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:03,399
Speaker 19: I don't know because they all right, ob he got Harry,

539
00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,200
Speaker 19: you know, he signed right away, but Dow went to

540
00:22:06,240 --> 00:22:08,960
Speaker 19: the Jets first. We ended up getting late in the season,

541
00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:12,200
Speaker 19: so I don't really know how my recruiting game is.

542
00:22:12,720 --> 00:22:14,680
Speaker 19: Gotta talk to it, gotta talk.

543
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 5: To the.

544
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,760
Speaker 1: Local media also votes on the Media Good Guy Award. Now,

545
00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:23,359
Speaker 1: this award goes to a player who goes above and

546
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:27,159
Speaker 1: beyond and his media obligations, provides great quotes and is

547
00:22:27,200 --> 00:22:30,639
Speaker 1: always available to the local press. And the voters voted

548
00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,879
Speaker 1: for Kyle Hamilton to win that award this year. He

549
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:37,040
Speaker 1: talked about the significance of that and also his mindset

550
00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:38,040
Speaker 1: going into the playoffs.

551
00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 18: This vote was way closer, but the Media Good Guy

552
00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:44,040
Speaker 18: goes to a Ravens player who has gone above and

553
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,399
Speaker 18: beyond normal media obligations to make himself available all for

554
00:22:48,480 --> 00:22:50,760
Speaker 18: insight that we can then as media members pass along

555
00:22:50,800 --> 00:22:51,280
Speaker 18: to fans.

556
00:22:51,680 --> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 12: It was a very close vote.

557
00:22:52,760 --> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 18: There are a number of players who received votes, which

558
00:22:54,880 --> 00:22:58,240
Speaker 18: is a reflection of the locker room, but this individual

559
00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,639
Speaker 18: really stood out. It's not always easy to talk to

560
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,920
Speaker 18: media after a loss of things don't go well during

561
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:06,720
Speaker 18: the game, whatever it is, but he made himself available

562
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:07,919
Speaker 18: and we very much.

574
00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:52,000
Speaker 21: all being all pro is and you know it's it's

575
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,040
Speaker 21: it's a dream until it happens. And it's pretty cool

576
00:23:55,080 --> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 21: to be voted on by my peers, which is my opinion,

577
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:03,159
Speaker 21: the most important opinion, and just to be voted by

578
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:04,920
Speaker 21: guys who I've looked up to still look up to

00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:11,040
Speaker 21: it's an honor.

582
00:24:13,640 --> 00:24:15,639
Speaker 8: How do you feel you feel like you're all the

583
00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:18,200
Speaker 8: way back now and you wise are still working toward that.

584
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:21,040
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean I was out there today pretty much

585
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:24,360
Speaker 21: full participant, so it was got through, it did well.

586
00:24:24,680 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 9: Feeling good you approaching these weekend of games or I

587
00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:30,520
Speaker 9: don't know how regularly you get to.

588
00:24:30,560 --> 00:24:33,199
Speaker 6: Watch these football games in general because you're out there.

589
00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:35,119
Speaker 9: But how are you going to watch these games if

590
00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,040
Speaker 9: you do at all understand that you can play one

591
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:39,840
Speaker 9: of these potential for teams?

592
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:42,840
Speaker 21: Yeah, I mean, I'm not gonna go out of my

593
00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:44,960
Speaker 21: way to watch the games because I'm sure we'll be

594
00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:48,240
Speaker 21: watching plenty of them next week. But whoever we end

595
00:24:48,359 --> 00:24:52,040
Speaker 21: up playing, I mean, it's out of the field. It's

596
00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:53,720
Speaker 21: I feel like we played a lot of the people

597
00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:56,560
Speaker 21: still in the playoffs right now, and you know, it's

598
00:24:56,600 --> 00:24:59,080
Speaker 21: a at the end of the day, nameless faces opponents.

599
00:24:59,119 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 21: We're going to approach every game like we do in

600
00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 21: the past and how every opponent we approach, so it

601
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,200
Speaker 21: doesn't really matter who we play. In my opinion, I

602
00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 21: think we're just going to prepare for them same way.

603
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:11,240
Speaker 16: God, how do you feel like the veteran players like Lamar,

604
00:25:11,880 --> 00:25:14,200
Speaker 16: you know, other vets on the team who have been

605
00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:16,200
Speaker 16: in this situation before, how are they kind of setting

606
00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:18,520
Speaker 16: the tone about how to approach the playoffs with the

607
00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 16: bye week?

608
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:20,680
Speaker 14: You know, just how to go about that.

609
00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:22,200
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think we've done this.

610
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,600
Speaker 21: We've done such a good job of credit to the vets,

611
00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:28,520
Speaker 21: like you said, of creating somewhat of a playoff atmosphere

612
00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,840
Speaker 21: every week throughout the year, and I feel like it's

613
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 21: been somewhat of a seamless transition the past week and

614
00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:36,560
Speaker 21: not even the past weeks past a couple of days

615
00:25:36,600 --> 00:25:39,280
Speaker 21: getting to the actual playoffs. And it's a blessing to

616
00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,720
Speaker 21: have this bye week and allow us to be where

617
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 21: our feet are and just get our minds right for

618
00:25:43,880 --> 00:25:47,560
Speaker 21: the road ahead. But like you said, lamar rokwand everybody

619
00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,119
Speaker 21: who's the leader on this team has done a good

620
00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 21: job of just intensity ramps up a little more. And

621
00:25:52,400 --> 00:25:54,440
Speaker 21: it's winter go home at this point, and I know

622
00:25:55,040 --> 00:25:56,520
Speaker 21: we all don't want to go home right now. We

623
00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:58,719
Speaker 21: know we have a championship to win.

624
00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,080
Speaker 9: Is a guy that wasn't on that twenty nineteen team

625
00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:04,760
Speaker 9: do you feel like a lot of that talk of

626
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,480
Speaker 9: what happened that year is kind of like overblown because

627
00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,520
Speaker 9: you guys are different to You've been a guy that

628
00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,800
Speaker 9: is here now that wasn't there. Now, how do you

629
00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:14,520
Speaker 9: feel about the talk of comparing the.

630
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,560
Speaker 21: Two years yeah, I mean, it's I can't blame people

631
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:21,160
Speaker 21: for talking about it. I wasn't here, so I don't

632
00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:22,960
Speaker 21: know too much of what happened. But I mean, we

633
00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:27,639
Speaker 21: were first in the AFC and loss, and that's why

634
00:26:27,640 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 21: all people have to go off right now, besides the

635
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:33,400
Speaker 21: ray Lewis every day, so we got to prove ourselves

636
00:26:34,080 --> 00:26:36,440
Speaker 21: in the moment that we're capable of going on the championship.

637
00:26:37,000 --> 00:26:39,640
Speaker 20: What's it likely to see Dalvin Cook? I'm sure it's

638
00:26:39,640 --> 00:26:41,760
Speaker 20: a guy that you've watched throughout your career. What's like

639
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:42,760
Speaker 20: seeing him in practice?

640
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:44,880
Speaker 12: Yeah, it's pretty cool.

641
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,840
Speaker 21: I mean, it's it never gets old seeing guys who

642
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:52,040
Speaker 21: I've looked up to, like j Davin Clowney, you know,

643
00:26:52,119 --> 00:26:54,479
Speaker 21: he's a real cool guy, and being able to chop

644
00:26:54,600 --> 00:26:59,919
Speaker 21: it up with him, Kyle van Noyd, like Odell I mean,

645
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,719
Speaker 21: and then Dalvin Cook. I mean, I've been watching them

646
00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:04,600
Speaker 21: dominate since for the State and h It's cool to

647
00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,280
Speaker 21: be on a team where we have a bunch of

648
00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:10,280
Speaker 21: guys like that who have made their name for themselves

649
00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:12,240
Speaker 21: around the league, and I can take bits and pieces

650
00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 21: from them.

651
00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:17,919
Speaker 1: In the locker room. Today, we also heard from several players,

652
00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 1: including defensive lineman Justin Mattabek.

653
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,640
Speaker 15: Are you m gonna be included into every single game

654
00:27:23,680 --> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 15: to see the possibility for yourself?

655
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:25,680
Speaker 22: Are you just gonna love it?

656
00:27:25,760 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 23: Come to always want to come to me? You know,

657
00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:30,200
Speaker 23: the games are gonna be everywhere. You know, everybody's gonna

658
00:27:30,200 --> 00:27:31,960
Speaker 23: be excited for the ball card games and stuff like that.

659
00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:33,520
Speaker 23: But I'm just gonna I'm gonna let it come to

660
00:27:33,560 --> 00:27:37,000
Speaker 23: be and just enjoy football. Take uh, carry my body

661
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,200
Speaker 23: and just you know, just do my thing on the weekend.

662
00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,960
Speaker 15: So is it helpful that of the four teams that

663
00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:43,840
Speaker 15: you could see obviously not gonna see two or three

664
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 15: just the way it works that you've played them before,

665
00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,280
Speaker 15: you're familiar, especially within your own division. Is that at

666
00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 15: all helpful or do you think it's just truly kind

667
00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:52,960
Speaker 15: of new one game season and can can happen.

668
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:55,879
Speaker 23: It's helpful because we played that team before, so we

669
00:27:55,960 --> 00:27:57,840
Speaker 23: can see things that we've done well in and we

670
00:27:57,880 --> 00:27:59,880
Speaker 23: can keep adding on to those things and then things

671
00:28:00,200 --> 00:28:02,000
Speaker 23: we didn't do well uh as well on so we

672
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 23: could just go clean up those things in practice. So

673
00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:08,000
Speaker 23: you know, we've seen him in practice already and in

674
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,359
Speaker 23: the game, so you know, going on the iPad and

675
00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:11,680
Speaker 23: just find things out to get better at and we're

676
00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:12,640
Speaker 23: going to execute out the game.

677
00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:15,920
Speaker 15: So we are locked in focused so much around this team.

678
00:28:16,040 --> 00:28:18,159
Speaker 15: John Harball's even talking about just the tunnel vision and

679
00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:20,600
Speaker 15: how good you guys are at that that can't be taught.

680
00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:23,240
Speaker 15: So where does that kind of come from? Just the

681
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,399
Speaker 15: philosophy of this team and what you've been able to

682
00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:27,120
Speaker 15: do so far and what you want to do still.

683
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:27,640
Speaker 22: Uh.

684
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 23: I think it's just a good mix with uh young

685
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:31,720
Speaker 23: players and like vets and stuff that've been there and

686
00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 23: done that. Colvin or a guy who's been in the

687
00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 23: UH the dance three times and one two of them.

688
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,600
Speaker 23: T Rober is a guy that's very just young and

689
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:39,920
Speaker 23: hungry to r and ready to learn. We have guys

690
00:28:39,960 --> 00:28:40,520

00:28:51,000 --> 00:28:52,720
Speaker 23: to take one day at a time and execute and

699
00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:53,880

00:29:05,440 --> 00:29:07,600
Speaker 23: obviously starting with Lamar, you know what I'm saying, how

707
00:29:07,640 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 23: the offense has just been playing well, lights out us

708
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,920
Speaker 23: on defense r uh, starting with Uh, Roquan Kyle's playing

709
00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,880
Speaker 23: is his tail off. Everybody's just playing at a high level.

710
00:29:15,920 --> 00:29:17,040
Speaker 23: But we just got to take one day at time.

711
00:29:17,080 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 23: Everybody take care of their body. Everybody just enjoy this

712
00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,600

Speaker 23: and get and get ready for next week.

714
00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:26,240
Speaker 24: Listen, what did you what was practiced like today?

715
00:29:26,240 --> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: Obviously you're not game planning for a p opponent, but

716
00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:30,440
Speaker 1: what was practice like today?

717
00:29:30,880 --> 00:29:30,960
Speaker 22: Uh?

718
00:29:31,040 --> 00:29:32,960
Speaker 23: It was just uh a look of things that we've

719
00:29:32,960 --> 00:29:36,040
Speaker 23: already seen on the defensive side. I can always speak

720
00:29:36,040 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 23: for at least, you know, like a whole lot like

721
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,479
Speaker 23: trap schemes, uh, stuff that we've seen versus Steelers even

722
00:29:40,520 --> 00:29:42,680
Speaker 23: Miami as well. Uh, running to the ball and stuff

723
00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 23: like that. A getting our conditioning up. So those are

724
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 23: things that we really saw today practice.

725
00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:48,960
Speaker 16: How beneficially do you think this time is for this team?

726
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:49,880
Speaker 5: I think it's huge.

727
00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:51,640
Speaker 23: I think it's huge special guys who are banged up

728
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,520
Speaker 23: a little bit. Uh, they can get their feet under him,

729
00:29:53,640 --> 00:29:55,960
Speaker 23: make sure they're taking care of their body. It's good

730
00:29:56,000 --> 00:29:58,680
Speaker 23: for us as well, just uh cleaning things up. Uh,

731
00:29:58,760 --> 00:30:01,280
Speaker 23: not having the stress of like worrying about opponent of

732
00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:02,840
Speaker 23: the weekend instead of just take care of your body

733
00:30:02,840 --> 00:30:04,440
Speaker 23: and just cleaning things up that we know that we

734
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:05,120
Speaker 23: could be better at.

735
00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,480
Speaker 5: Justin, does it feels strange old to keep a body

736
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 5: in January? Or is it just welcome? Just just nice

737
00:30:11,640 --> 00:30:13,640
Speaker 5: to have a few days office. I'll say more on

738
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:14,840
Speaker 5: the welcome side, just nice to have.

739
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,720
Speaker 23: You know, Uh, guys were banged up, so it's another

740
00:30:17,720 --> 00:30:20,240
Speaker 23: great opportunity for them to get better. Just taking a

741
00:30:20,320 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 23: one day at a time and just seeing how your

742
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,920
Speaker 23: body feels. Because next week we're we're gonna have some

743

744
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:29,040
Speaker 23: get more locked in. But this week is more relaxed

745
00:30:29,080 --> 00:30:31,640
Speaker 23: and just where we're just basically just letting it come to.

752
00:30:48,960 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 2: I know physically, it's just it's been a long, long year.

753
00:30:52,280 --> 00:30:53,239
Speaker 1: How do you feel right now?

00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:42,720
Speaker 22: Out fundamentals? Uh, getting back uh to what made us us.

779
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:45,640
Speaker 22: You know, few things been happening at the end of

780
00:31:45,640 --> 00:31:47,920
Speaker 22: the season that we don't like, so uh, we were

781
00:31:47,960 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 22: just cleaning up everything that we needed to clean up,

782
00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 22: uh fundamentally. Uh So that way, the end of the

783
00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:54,040
Speaker 22: season is ready to come down to the fundamental. Can

784
00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,640
Speaker 22: you still tackle? Can you still get all blocks? Can

785
00:31:55,680 --> 00:31:56,560
Speaker 22: you still do the small things?

786
00:31:56,640 --> 00:31:57,200
Speaker 5: Right now?

787
00:31:57,280 --> 00:31:59,800
Speaker 4: Trick, is there really kind of a sense of pride

788
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 4: like this week, like you guys earned this week off,

789
00:32:03,280 --> 00:32:04,760
Speaker 4: Like you guys earned the rest of it.

790
00:32:05,120 --> 00:32:07,040
Speaker 2: Do you kind of take advantage of it that way?

791
00:32:07,200 --> 00:32:08,440
Speaker 6: Just say, you know, when you k hit the field

792
00:32:08,520 --> 00:32:09,880
Speaker 6: this week, Hey we earned this.

793
00:32:10,080 --> 00:32:12,840
Speaker 22: Yeah, define, you definitely earned it. But uh, I was

794
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:14,840
Speaker 22: just talking to somebody earlier about it, like what's the

795
00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:15,600
Speaker 22: point of you earning?

796
00:32:15,640 --> 00:32:16,760
Speaker 5: Their view? Let it go to waste?

797
00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 22: So uh, that's that's the biggest thing is while we

798
00:32:19,200 --> 00:32:20,959
Speaker 22: stay in sharp right now, is just uh staying out

799
00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:22,400
Speaker 22: on the top of our game. That way, we don't

800
00:32:22,400 --> 00:32:24,920
Speaker 22: go in next week being slove is being uh rusted

801
00:32:25,040 --> 00:32:27,640
Speaker 22: or whatever uh people might say about that twenty nineteen run.

802
00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:30,880
Speaker 22: Uh So, Uh we doing our best to be fuldamention

803
00:32:30,920 --> 00:32:32,760
Speaker 22: short fundament and sound and everything is to come in

804
00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:33,400
Speaker 22: and swinging so.

805
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,120
Speaker 8: They can hearing him at twenty nineteen what part of

806
00:32:35,200 --> 00:32:37,920
Speaker 8: that team or uh defense first defense to leave the

807
00:32:37,960 --> 00:32:39,960
Speaker 8: league and us points most takeaways.

808
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 5: Both sucks and it's a lot honestly.

809
00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:41,800
Speaker 17: Uh.

810
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:43,520
Speaker 22: It just shows a lot of hard working dedication that

811
00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:46,000
Speaker 22: went into all the sacrifices that everybody made and every

812
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:46,480
Speaker 22: and it.

813
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:48,280
Speaker 5: Shows that every play counts.

814
00:32:48,480 --> 00:32:48,600
Speaker 23: Uh.

815
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:51,040
Speaker 22: So, you know, hats off to every single guy in

816
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:53,120
Speaker 22: our room. Hands up to the guys on the offense

817
00:32:53,200 --> 00:32:54,800
Speaker 22: at the ball for uh being able to put us

818
00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:56,040
Speaker 22: in a position that we was getting better in.

819
00:32:56,160 --> 00:32:59,719
Speaker 5: So you know, just team metform thirteen.

820
00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:02,719
Speaker 14: Sorry, the old adage is defense wins championships.

821
00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:02,960
Speaker 5: You know.

822
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 24: Along the lines to James's question, do you feel like

823
00:33:05,200 --> 00:33:07,560
Speaker 24: as you go into the this playoffs that you guys

824
00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:10,400
Speaker 24: feel that that burden at that responsibility is that.

825
00:33:10,440 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 22: Because the group definitely, uh cause if you look at

826
00:33:13,040 --> 00:33:16,280
Speaker 22: the games lately, it's been all uh, last few minutes

827
00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:19,680
Speaker 22: again scores on people and stuff. So definitely in that situation,

828
00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:21,640
Speaker 22: your defense got it back against the wall. They gotta

829
00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:24,000
Speaker 22: get a stop. So you can't put down the offense.

830
00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:25,600
Speaker 22: You can't put down nobody but yourself that you're on

831
00:33:25,640 --> 00:33:25,960
Speaker 22: the field.

832
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:27,840
Speaker 5: Uh. You had the opportunities to make those stops, so

833
00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:28,840
Speaker 5: usually got madeo stops.

834
00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,479
Speaker 10: Patrick, you made you made reference and passes to two

835
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:32,080
Speaker 10: thousand nineteen.

836
00:33:32,080 --> 00:33:33,040
Speaker 5: You got here right after that.

837
00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:34,520
Speaker 2: And obviously there are on a ton of.

838
00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:37,239
Speaker 6: Guys left, but there are plenty of How much does

839
00:33:37,280 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 6: that come up over.

840
00:33:38,080 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 18: The last few years, not so much dwelling on it,

841
00:33:40,680 --> 00:33:43,640
Speaker 18: but maybe using that as a learning experience and and

842
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 18: and is that coming up now among the guys that.

843
00:33:45,480 --> 00:33:46,479
Speaker 1: We're here four years ago?

844
00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:46,800
Speaker 5: Uh?

845
00:33:46,840 --> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 22: I h I haven't heard it since it happened that

846
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 22: time and then now. So we honestly don't even care,

847
00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:54,960
Speaker 22: honestly about it. Honestly, it's the last thing we thinking about.

848
00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:58,080
Speaker 22: We don't care about the rest. We won't be sharp

849
00:33:58,160 --> 00:33:59,480
Speaker 22: this and that you got a rest. We are in

850
00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:01,920
Speaker 22: the press for reason. But at the same time we

851
00:34:02,080 --> 00:34:04,040
Speaker 22: understand that we still wanna get fund them in this time.

852
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:05,640
Speaker 22: We still know their staying there, we could co recton

853
00:34:05,720 --> 00:34:08,319
Speaker 22: get better at so the whole focus is just us

854
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,320
Speaker 22: getting better honestly, gess.

855
00:34:10,200 --> 00:34:12,879
Speaker 14: And what is the mentality when you close the door

856
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:15,640
Speaker 14: on the regular season, that's the playoff.

857
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:16,800
Speaker 4: Season when you were more intense.

858
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:18,840
Speaker 5: Does it feel different? Most definitely.

859
00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:19,120
Speaker 22: Uh.

860
00:34:19,560 --> 00:34:21,239
Speaker 5: I'd be lying if I said it didn't. Uh.

861
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:23,440
Speaker 22: It's it's a lot at stake, so you only get

862
00:34:23,480 --> 00:34:25,680
Speaker 22: one shot. Uh So, that's the biggest thing is that

863
00:34:26,040 --> 00:34:29,040
Speaker 22: each play matter, each yard matter, each praying of each

864
00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:31,800
Speaker 22: lay the grass matter. So usually gotta come out for

865
00:34:31,840 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 22: full swinging, full till and just be on top of everything.

866
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,560
Speaker 24: Can you take anything from your experience in winning a

867
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:37,400
Speaker 24: national championship?

868
00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:37,960
Speaker 5: You know?

869
00:34:38,200 --> 00:34:39,719
Speaker 24: Uh? In terms of what it takes to to.

870
00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:43,440
Speaker 22: Win a championship, Uh, I think the biggest, biggest thing

871
00:34:43,560 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 22: is just having your teammates back. Uh. So could go

872
00:34:46,680 --> 00:34:50,400
Speaker 22: southways quick and uh you know, they could be point fingers,

873
00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:53,080
Speaker 22: or it could be uh coaches not seeing out our

874
00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:54,560
Speaker 22: own thing or players not seeing out their own thing,

875
00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:55,640
Speaker 22: or whatever it may be. But by the end of

876
00:34:55,680 --> 00:34:57,880
Speaker 22: the day, as long as everybody stay together, everybody just

877
00:34:57,920 --> 00:35:00,920
Speaker 22: stay in the moment and stay true to ourselves. Just

878
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 22: rely on what got us there in the first place.

879
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:03,480
Speaker 22: I think we all be fine.

880
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,000
Speaker 1: That was linebacker Patrick Queen. And last but not least,

881
00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:12,440
Speaker 1: we also heard from fellow Linebackerquan Smith.

882
00:35:13,400 --> 00:35:16,800
Speaker 12: Quand voted for All Pro by the players that f

883
00:35:16,960 --> 00:35:17,160

Speaker 17: be acknowledged amongst your peers as one of the best

886
00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:27,359
Speaker 17: in the game. But at the end of the day,

887
00:35:28,239 --> 00:35:30,080
Speaker 17: it don't matter as much. It's a matter about what

888
00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:31,680
Speaker 17: we do as a team. And I'm just I got

889
00:35:31,719 --> 00:35:33,520
Speaker 17: a lot of really good teammates around me that make

890
00:35:33,600 --> 00:35:35,960
Speaker 17: me look a lot better than I am. So just

891
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:37,839
Speaker 17: grateful for these guys at the end of the day.

892
00:35:37,920 --> 00:35:40,920

893
00:35:40,920 --> 00:35:43,319
Speaker 17: I'm playing the game. I'm really chasing that big thing,

894
00:35:43,360 --> 00:35:45,080
Speaker 17: and that's that's what it's all about at this point.

895
00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 17: All the personal accolades that stuff come and go.

00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:08,440
Speaker 17: Nah, I'm not anxious. I'm always about preparation. So I'm

904
00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:12,239
Speaker 17: just preparing, preparing, preparing, and when my opportunity come, just

905
00:36:12,360 --> 00:36:14,799
Speaker 17: like anything else in life, i'm'a be there to.

906
00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:16,560
Speaker 12: Take it full and take off with it.

907
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,279
Speaker 24: Well, you're a focusing uh a practice, you know, you're

908
00:36:19,280 --> 00:36:20,200
Speaker 24: not game planning for somebody.

909
00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:21,319
Speaker 5: So what was practiced like today?

910
00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:21,839
Speaker 1: Uh?

911
00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,640
Speaker 17: Fundamentals and then just doing what we do playing football.

912
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,759
Speaker 17: Cause at the end of the day's football. That's all

913
00:36:26,800 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 17: you can practice. And uh, let's run a pass and

914
00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:32,920
Speaker 17: you know, just working on plays and just working on ourselves.

915
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,560
Speaker 17: And I think that that was huge and that uh

916
00:36:34,719 --> 00:36:35,399
Speaker 17: goes a long way.

917
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:35,759
Speaker 5: Bro.

918
00:36:35,880 --> 00:36:39,440
Speaker 14: You're always intense. Is there another level of intensity when

919
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:40,640
Speaker 14: it's playoff football?

920
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:41,759
Speaker 5: Wait and see?

921
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,320
Speaker 9: What does it mean to you with this defense to

922
00:36:46,400 --> 00:36:48,880
Speaker 9: be given kind of the eyeste on you can get

923
00:36:48,920 --> 00:36:49,560
Speaker 9: triple crown?

924
00:36:49,680 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 2: What is you guys right now?

925
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:53,440
Speaker 6: First defense to do that? As many great defenses this

926
00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,080
Speaker 6: franchise and seen you guys being the first to do that.

927
00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:58,640
Speaker 12: Yeah, No, that's big time. Uh, to be acknowledged in

928
00:36:58,719 --> 00:36:59,080
Speaker 12: that way.

929
00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:01,200
Speaker 17: But at the end of the day, that was in

930
00:37:01,239 --> 00:37:04,000
Speaker 17: the regular season and our plans have shifted to the postseason.

931
00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:04,799
Speaker 12: So that's great.

932
00:37:05,120 --> 00:37:06,719
Speaker 17: You know, we did this and we did that, but

933
00:37:06,840 --> 00:37:09,040
Speaker 17: none of that matters in this season of ball because

934
00:37:09,320 --> 00:37:11,799
Speaker 17: what matters is getting that dubbed one week at a time,

935
00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:14,359
Speaker 17: and we know what we're chasing, So that's our biggest thing,

936
00:37:14,400 --> 00:37:16,359
Speaker 17: and it's gonna start one week at a time.

937
00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:18,120
Speaker 12: What's it like to face.

938
00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,720
Speaker 5: All your arms rounds?

939
00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,279
Speaker 12: Are you going back just waiting until to see who

940
00:37:24,360 --> 00:37:25,040
Speaker 12: that is?

941
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:25,560
Speaker 22: Uh?

942
00:37:25,640 --> 00:37:27,480
Speaker 17: You have to just wait and see who that opponent is.

943
00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:30,040
Speaker 17: And you obviously know who's gonna be. What one of

944
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 17: four teams, I'm not quite sure. Uh, So it's gonna

945
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 17: be something like that. But at the end of the day,

946
00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,920
Speaker 17: the playoffs teams are a bit different. They like, you know,

947
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 17: everybody's gonna give you everything they got because it's win

948
00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,600
Speaker 17: or go home. It's your life of their life, and

949
00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:44,640
Speaker 17: most cats are gonna choose their own. So when you

950
00:37:44,719 --> 00:37:48,000
Speaker 17: look at it from that perspective, it's gonna it's gonna

951
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:49,880
Speaker 17: be intense regardless of who the battle is against.

952
00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 12: But just know we'll be ready, locked and loaded.

953
00:37:52,320 --> 00:37:54,640
Speaker 24: How much of a empisides do you put on kind

954
00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,279
Speaker 24: of set the tone for this team and for having

955
00:37:57,280 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 24: the right mindset going into the playoffs.

956
00:37:59,280 --> 00:37:59,799
Speaker 5: It means a lot.

957
00:37:59,840 --> 00:38:02,000
Speaker 17: It's about uh starting fast and I know, uh a

958
00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,080
Speaker 17: couple of games, uh these a couple of games in

959
00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:06,800
Speaker 17: the past, these past, but that's the regular season didn't.

960
00:38:06,560 --> 00:38:08,000
Speaker 12: Start quite the way we wanted to.

961
00:38:08,160 --> 00:38:10,880
Speaker 17: So it's just about emphasizing that throughout practice, throughout this

962
00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:14,440
Speaker 17: week as well into uh into next week, and just knowing, hey,

963
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,800
Speaker 17: you know, we have to start fast. We start fast,

964
00:38:16,880 --> 00:38:20,040
Speaker 17: attention to detail. You know, on our crap play in

965
00:38:20,120 --> 00:38:22,000
Speaker 17: and play out, no one can touch us. But when

966
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:25,200
Speaker 17: we get complacent in things, not doing things to our standard,

967
00:38:25,320 --> 00:38:27,800
Speaker 17: that's when you know slips are coming the crack. But

968
00:38:28,200 --> 00:38:30,080
Speaker 17: we just know that and we just have to attack

969
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,080
Speaker 17: each and every detail. And I feel as if we

970
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:34,160
Speaker 17: do that, everything else will take care of yourself.

971
00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 14: Hamilton, that's her name, don't bro you lock her next

972
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:40,040
Speaker 14: to him? You've seen him grow up? What if you

00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,040

976
00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:45,640
Speaker 14: him philosopher.

977
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:48,400
Speaker 17: Yeah, honestly, man, Uh I t I. I joke with

978
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:50,440
Speaker 17: him sometimes. Funny story. I don't know if I've ever

979
00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:52,880
Speaker 17: said it, but uh, I used to tell him I

980
00:38:52,960 --> 00:38:55,200
Speaker 17: was questionable about him, uh when I first got here.

981
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:55,520
Speaker 5: Uh.

982
00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:57,440
Speaker 12: And what now, I don't know if he ever said that.

983
00:38:57,520 --> 00:38:59,560
Speaker 17: It wasn't wasn't really sure, you know, not there Dame

984
00:38:59,600 --> 00:39:02,440
Speaker 17: guy would no disrespect anything like that. He from Georgia

985
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:04,600
Speaker 17: though in a sense, and like, you know, but this

986
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:06,800
Speaker 17: year man, like day in and day out, like I

987
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:08,960
Speaker 17: seen him doing a lot of really good things and

988
00:39:09,000 --> 00:39:10,799
Speaker 17: a lot of part of OTA's when he gotten as

989
00:39:10,840 --> 00:39:12,360
Speaker 17: well as in camp, and I'm like, hey man, this

990
00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:14,680
Speaker 17: guy's so versatile, can do so many things, and like

991
00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,000
Speaker 17: he's just proving it to the league, like I've seen

992
00:39:17,040 --> 00:39:19,680
Speaker 17: it all throughout camp. So I think the guy seiling

993
00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:21,880
Speaker 17: is still so high and he's he's just scratching the

994
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,640
Speaker 17: surface of what he truly can be. And I'm grateful

995
00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,880
Speaker 17: that he's on our defense and like can create so

996
00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:28,680
Speaker 17: many different pictures when he's.

997
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:31,200
Speaker 12: Out a nickel giving me edges like the best.

998
00:39:31,360 --> 00:39:33,840
Speaker 17: I think he's the best perimeter ed setter in the

999
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:36,360
Speaker 17: league far as DB's and things that our nature and

1000
00:39:36,360 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 17: the guy come through in the alley and he'll serve

1001
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:40,520
Speaker 17: you up a cold dish as well if you come

1002
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:43,279
Speaker 17: through slipping. So he's got he's definitely got some of

1003
00:39:43,360 --> 00:39:45,640
Speaker 17: my mentality in him. So I gotta you know, he's

1004
00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,719
Speaker 17: getting out of his shell more and more. So I'm

1005
00:39:47,840 --> 00:39:49,440
Speaker 17: just excited for him, and I think there's just so

1006
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,880
Speaker 17: much great things in store for him.

1007
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,040
Speaker 4: Real you certainly know about Dalvin Cooke.

1008
00:39:54,120 --> 00:39:56,320
Speaker 6: What do you think about the Ravens all like that?

1009
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:56,960
Speaker 12: Oh?

1010
00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,359
Speaker 17: I think you know, obviously, he's a tremendous player. I've

1011
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,840
Speaker 17: done a lot of eight things in this league, Pro Bowls, multiple,

1012
00:40:02,040 --> 00:40:05,239
Speaker 17: multiple a thousand yard seasons. So when you have a

1013
00:40:05,320 --> 00:40:07,200
Speaker 17: back like that going against theim twice a year up

1014
00:40:07,239 --> 00:40:09,560
Speaker 17: in Minnesota when I was in Chicago, you have a

1015
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:11,399
Speaker 17: great deal of respect for the way the god plays

1016
00:40:11,440 --> 00:40:14,080
Speaker 17: the game. So I'm glad that he's here. I think

1017
00:40:14,120 --> 00:40:16,360
Speaker 17: he's definitely gonna be able to help us in whatever

1018
00:40:16,440 --> 00:40:18,640
Speaker 17: capacity that is. I'll leave that up to the coaches,

1019
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,920
Speaker 17: but I'm grateful that he's here, and I think it's

1020
00:40:20,920 --> 00:40:22,600
Speaker 17: gonna be a great asset for our team.

1021
00:40:23,040 --> 00:40:26,040
Speaker 6: What a moment? Is there a moment this season where

1022
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:27,760
Speaker 6: you thought like we really.

1023
00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:29,279
Speaker 12: Got this like, we can take this on the way

1024
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:30,560
Speaker 12: I thought.

1025
00:40:30,680 --> 00:40:32,879
Speaker 17: I think that every time I line it up, every

1026
00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 17: time I scrap it up, I tell the guys I

1027
00:40:34,600 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 17: have the utmost respect, upmost faith in everything that we do,

1028
00:40:37,360 --> 00:40:39,160
Speaker 17: and if we play to our best of our ability

1029
00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 17: to look ourselves in the mirror day in and day out,

1030
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:43,799
Speaker 17: everything we want will be right there in front of us.

1031
00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 17: But it just starts with one game at a time.

1032
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,400
Speaker 17: And we know the type of potential that we have

1033
00:40:47,560 --> 00:40:49,880
Speaker 17: on this team, but it's about showing that play in

1034
00:40:50,000 --> 00:40:51,800
Speaker 17: and play out and game in and game out, and

1035
00:40:51,880 --> 00:40:54,000
Speaker 17: if you do that, everything else will take care of yourself.

1036
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:56,560
Speaker 24: With the type of guys we have here, mind, you

1037
00:40:56,600 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 24: said at the start of the season that you're incredibly

1038
00:40:58,920 --> 00:40:59,759
Speaker 24: confident in this group.

1039
00:41:00,120 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 1: We want all the smoke. You gotta set that tone

1040
00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:06,880
Speaker 1: coming into the year. How has this team embraced that attitude?

1041
00:41:07,640 --> 00:41:10,160
Speaker 17: Embrace it every single day the way we go out

1042
00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:12,560
Speaker 17: to work far as practice and as well when we

1043
00:41:12,640 --> 00:41:14,919
Speaker 17: go out to games. We want Catt to know, Hey,

1044
00:41:15,239 --> 00:41:18,000
Speaker 17: you just played the twenty twenty three Baltimore Ravens, and

1045
00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,080
Speaker 17: those guys will you know, knock you off, you know

1046
00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:22,880
Speaker 17: or whatever the case may be, you can fill that

1047
00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:25,759
Speaker 17: in wherever you feel fit. But that's that's kind of

1048
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:28,320
Speaker 17: the mentality we want. And just a bunch of hungry dogs,

1049
00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:30,319
Speaker 17: Like if you've ever been on a safari, ever been

1050
00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 17: in the wild and just seeing cast that's trying to

1051
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 17: survive and like trying to make their next meal, and like,

1052
00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,759
Speaker 17: I feel like we have that mentality and we know

1053
00:41:38,120 --> 00:41:40,200
Speaker 17: if one get a kill, we all gonna share it

1054
00:41:40,239 --> 00:41:41,080
Speaker 17: at the end of the day.

1055
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:43,520
Speaker 12: And when you have that mentality, man, it's like it's

1056
00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:44,120
Speaker 12: pretty sweet.

1057
00:41:44,120 --> 00:41:46,480
Speaker 17: And when there's guys that's so selfless, don't care who

1058
00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,200
Speaker 17: gets the recognition, that's the best type of team you want.

1059
00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:51,000
Speaker 17: I know many guys or died to be in a

1060
00:41:51,080 --> 00:41:53,440
Speaker 17: position that we're in far as like a type of

1061
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:55,959
Speaker 17: team because there's so many just like genuine good dudes.

1062
00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:57,600
Speaker 17: But when you get on that field, cats that want

1063
00:41:57,600 --> 00:41:59,759
Speaker 17: to rip your face off and maybe cut your hair too.
