1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:01,080
Speaker 1: Actually yeah.

2
00:00:01,200 --> 00:00:05,680
Speaker 2: I Actually my very last game, I lost to the

3
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Rams in the what's the second round wild

4
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 2: card division? The divisional game versus of Rams.

5
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:17,080
Speaker 3: Weird, You don't know, because we never It was always

6
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,040
Speaker 3: usually our first round exactly because we always had the bye,

7
00:00:21,480 --> 00:00:26,640
Speaker 3: So that's hard to compute being in the wild card weekend.

8
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:32,159
Speaker 4: Welcome to Dudes on Dudes.

Speaker 2: And there are just four teams left and we're gonna

Speaker 2: be breaking it all down ahead of the championship round.

14
00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:49,400
Speaker 2: Plus we're talking with Patriots Pro Bowl cornerback Christian Gonzales.

Speaker 1: Let's Go.

18
00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 3: Dude Done Dude is a production of iHeartRadio. We only

19
00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:09,520
Speaker 3: got four teams left? Should we preview championship matchups?

20
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: Let's preview the championship matchups? Baby. We got the AFC Championship.

21
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:16,880
Speaker 2: Game that we played in plenty of times, and actually

22
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 2: the last time we played in this game, and it

23
00:01:20,959 --> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 2: was that was in Denver. We lost, you know, in

24
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,200
Speaker 2: the fourth quarter with the final you know seconds of

25
00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,240
Speaker 2: the game. Actually we had a chance with under a minute.

26
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: Then we got the.

27
00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: Ball back and then we had the hel Mary and

28
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 2: a Keith to Leeb was chugging down, you know, my

29
00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 2: shoulder pads in my jersey. I almost I couldn't even jump,

30
00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: but it didn't get called. Because when it's a hell Mary,

31
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: anything goes. But we're about to preview the New England Patriots,

32
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 2: you know, at the Denver Broncos for the AFC Championship game,

33
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:51,920
Speaker 2: and then we will preview the NFC Championship game, where

34
00:01:51,960 --> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 2: we got the Los Angeles Rams going to the Seattle Seahawks,

35
00:01:56,040 --> 00:01:59,160
Speaker 2: you know in Seattle. So let's let's get into it, Julian.

36
00:01:59,240 --> 00:02:02,320
Speaker 2: Let's let's start with the Patriots, obviously, because that's our team.

37
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 2: We're rooting for them. We're rooting for Christian Gonzales obviously.

38
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:09,040
Speaker 2: And what do you see as a key to this

39
00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:10,840
Speaker 2: game for the Patriots offense.

40
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 3: Key's taking care of the football. Okay, we got to

41
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 3: take care of the football. Six I think there's been

42
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,000
Speaker 3: six fumbles in the last two weeks.

43
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:24,120
Speaker 4: From our guy Drake.

44
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 3: You know, he makes insane plays. But there's been so

45
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:32,880
Speaker 3: many times that we've heard in thousands and thousands of

46
00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,040
Speaker 3: meetings going into the playoffs, probably like one hundred. Actually

47
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:40,400
Speaker 3: we didn't play in thousands that the games about the

48
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:44,200
Speaker 3: team that makes the least amount of mistakes. These games

49
00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:49,120
Speaker 3: aren't one. They're usually lost. And they were able to

50
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:54,480
Speaker 3: overcome last week against Houston with the turnovers and the

51
00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: ball security issues because the defense got a bunch of

52
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 3: takeaways and had a heyday against CJ.

53
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 4: Stroud.

54
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:03,560
Speaker 3: But you know, the key to this offense, especially with

55
00:03:03,600 --> 00:03:07,000
Speaker 3: Nobo Knicks and backup quarterback coming in on the other

56
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:07,600
Speaker 3: side of the.

57
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:10,000
Speaker 1: Ball, just got to take care of the football.

58
00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,480
Speaker 3: We got to just hey, we're gonna make plays.

59
00:03:13,520 --> 00:03:15,080
Speaker 4: You know, Drake knows it.

60
00:03:15,160 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: He even said, we got to kick the ball after

61
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,320
Speaker 3: every possession, whether it's a punter or a field goal.

62
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 3: And they understand that it's just we gotta we gotta

63
00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:23,560
Speaker 3: do it.

64
00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:23,840
Speaker 1: Now.

65
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:24,920
Speaker 4: What's your key, Rob?

66
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: Yeah?

67
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:28,519
Speaker 2: I always say good after their quarterback. Boat Knicks is

68
00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,120
Speaker 2: out for the year. Get after Jared Stidham. I mean,

69
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 2: the guy he's played in how many games, won one

70
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:37,440
Speaker 2: game in the last two years. He's I think he

71
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,200
Speaker 2: has four starts. You know, throughout his career. He actually

72
00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 2: was drafted by the Patriots to be a backup for Brady.

73
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:45,320
Speaker 1: You played what's did as well.

74
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: So when you get a new guy that's fresh, just

75
00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: getting thrown into into the mix, you know, into the playoffs,

76
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 2: you know, going, you know for the going, you know,

77
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 2: for the AFC Championship game, to go to the Super Bowl.

78
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,360
Speaker 2: I mean, just get aft to frustrate him from the

79
00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,280
Speaker 2: very beginning.

80
00:04:02,560 --> 00:04:04,600
Speaker 1: For draw up some blitzes. I mean, it's been so.

81
00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:08,480
Speaker 2: Long since he's seen live playoff action or just live

82
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,000
Speaker 2: game action. That is, he probably has never even seen

83
00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,120
Speaker 2: playoff action, live NFL game action. So if you throw blitzes,

84
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,720
Speaker 2: you throw the schemes, you stunt your defensive line, you

85
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,520
Speaker 2: bring the linebackers, you throw a safety blitz or a

86
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,760
Speaker 2: corner blitz in there. Just throw them off his game

87
00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:26,080
Speaker 2: where he has to read the defense and get him

88
00:04:26,080 --> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 2: confused from the beginning. And Julian, you play with Stidham,

89
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:31,920
Speaker 2: I mean, what's the scouting report on him?

90
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,760
Speaker 1: How many years? Was it one year that you played

91
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,520
Speaker 1: with him? Years with him?

92
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,839
Speaker 2: So what's the scouting report on Stidham? As for me,

93
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 2: who never played with him. I feel like he's actually

94
00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: a very very solid backup quarterback, you know, and it's

95
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:50,479
Speaker 2: a very you know, good situation for Denver to be in.

96
00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 2: It's not like there's a seventh round pick, you know

97
00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 2: draft that's a rookie as their backup. Like, this guy

98
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: has experience. He's a veteran. You he was in New England.

99
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: He learned from Tom, he learned from you know, wonderful

100
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:04,360
Speaker 2: coaches there.

101
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,479
Speaker 1: He played with a lot of great players like yourself.

102
00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 2: So what's the scouting port on Jared Stidham that you

103
00:05:10,040 --> 00:05:12,040
Speaker 2: saw when you were playing with him in New England?

104
00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,240
Speaker 3: You know, a lot has changed. He's a lot older now,

105
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,039
Speaker 3: that was probably what six years ago. But stid was

106
00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:22,679
Speaker 3: always a pretty accurate, very good guy, had very catchable ball,

107
00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:32,039
Speaker 3: smart guy, great, great team guy. You know, he's he's

108
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,360
Speaker 3: got some mobility, but he's not Bo Nicks.

109
00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 5: Uh.

110
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:41,159
Speaker 3: You know, So, I I really do. I think I

111
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,840
Speaker 3: think he can't sleep on him. You know the fact

112
00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:48,720
Speaker 3: that Sean Payton brought him over his first year there

113
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,719
Speaker 3: and then signed an extension for him going into like,

114
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,880
Speaker 3: I think this year tells you that he likes him,

115
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:58,719
Speaker 3: that he thinks he's he thinks very highly of him,

116
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,919
Speaker 3: So what whatever they do. I think Jared Sidam is

117
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,600
Speaker 3: going to be ready, and I think Sean Payton's a

118
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: good enough coach to get him ready. So I don't

119
00:06:07,880 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 3: think for a second that like, oh, Patriots have this

120
00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:15,200
Speaker 3: game one thousand percent because they have a backup quarterback.

121
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:16,760
Speaker 3: They still got to go out and play a really

122
00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:22,080
Speaker 3: good game. Because the Broncos are a very good football team.

123
00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: Yes, so are, and I agree with you.

124
00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:27,040
Speaker 2: It's not like, oh, their starting quarterback is out, it's

125
00:06:27,040 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 2: going to be handed to them. Jared Stidham is a

126
00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:31,960
Speaker 2: very qualified backup quarterback who could possibly be a starter,

127
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: and this game actually might elevate him to be a

128
00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 2: starter in the future.

129
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,360
Speaker 1: This happened makes money stand a backup. A lot of.

130
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,280
Speaker 2: Quarterbacks has happened to literally, I would say there's there's

131
00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:46,400
Speaker 2: minimum ten million dollars riding on the line right now

132
00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:47,440
Speaker 2: for Jared Sidham and.

133
00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:50,720
Speaker 4: Just hand this I think than I.

134
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,560
Speaker 1: Hey, I said minimum. I said minimum.

135
00:06:53,560 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: So if he has a problem performance and doesn't, well,

136
00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:59,200
Speaker 2: that's like a minimum, like he's going to get ten

137
00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 2: mil to be a back up somewhere else. But if

138
00:07:00,839 --> 00:07:04,000
Speaker 2: he dominates, Hey, here's thirty. You know, the br starter

139
00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 2: for some team that needs a quarterback. But I'm saying

140
00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 2: just minimum ten million dollars is riding on the line

141
00:07:09,320 --> 00:07:10,440
Speaker 2: for Jared'stidham here.

142
00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 1: And I saw him, you know, somehow, no me, somehow.

143
00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,240
Speaker 2: I watched the Denver Broncos in preseason two years ago.

144
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,560
Speaker 2: The game was on television, and I saw him play,

145
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 2: and he went out there and he was chucking some

146
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,360
Speaker 2: bombs and I felt like he was picking up and

147
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,600
Speaker 2: grasping Seohn Payton's offense very quick in just the first

148
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,600
Speaker 2: year Sean Payton was the coach.

149
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 1: So you can't sleep on Jared's didtem.

150
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:34,160
Speaker 2: It's definitely an advantage Patriots that Boat Nix is out,

151
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:37,880
Speaker 2: but you cannot sleep on this guy one single bit.

152
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,840
Speaker 1: On top of it, he has legs as well. He

153
00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:41,640
Speaker 1: can run the ball.

154
00:07:41,680 --> 00:07:44,880
Speaker 2: I remember, I think in a preseason game for the Patriots,

155
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,600
Speaker 2: I think he went for like a ninety nine yard

156
00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:52,040
Speaker 2: touchdown versus the Giants. If i'm I'm I'm pretty sure

157
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:52,800
Speaker 2: I was there.

158
00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:57,800
Speaker 4: I was there. It was another Yeah it was a

159
00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:01,040
Speaker 4: third string dude. It was I forget he's a coach now.

160
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 1: But who was that?

161
00:08:02,920 --> 00:08:06,440
Speaker 2: See, That's why That's why I said, all right, all right.

162
00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 1: I'm getting getting him confused.

163
00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:09,240
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was ninety nine, but it

164
00:08:09,280 --> 00:08:09,880
Speaker 4: was a long one.

165
00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:11,160
Speaker 1: It was a long way.

166
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 2: It was like long against the Giants. Yeah, it was

167
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,360
Speaker 2: against the Giants. I thought it was him, But I'm wrong,

168
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:19,360
Speaker 2: Julian mob No.

169
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:20,040
Speaker 4: But I think.

170
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: That's what it was. All right, So I'm getting them

171
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 1: confused right there.

172
00:08:25,400 --> 00:08:27,679
Speaker 2: I take that back, but shout out to Danny Ettlen

173
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:28,840
Speaker 2: whatever you're doing.

174
00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 1: You had some nice legs in that preseason game, buddy.

175
00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:32,320
Speaker 2: Yeah.

176
00:08:32,440 --> 00:08:34,320
Speaker 3: No, I mean Stid's gonna know where to go with

177
00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,319
Speaker 3: the football. He's a smart guy. He's been in the

178
00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,880
Speaker 3: league for a while. He's been under some really good coaches.

179
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 4: You know.

180
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:46,240
Speaker 3: For me, the Patriots defense, they got to be able

181
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,880
Speaker 3: to stop the run because they're gonna get a lot

182
00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:54,600
Speaker 3: of RJ. Harvey and and who's the other guy, McLoughlin.

183
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:59,040
Speaker 3: They got to be able to stop the run with

184
00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 3: Harvey McLoughlin. Uh, and then they got to be able

185
00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:08,960
Speaker 3: to tackle. Sean Payton is like a screen short pass

186
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:12,760
Speaker 3: savant where he can dial up all these plays and

187
00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:16,480
Speaker 3: get his players in spaces and catch and run guys

188
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:20,000
Speaker 3: and the Patriots are going to have to tackle because

189
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,360
Speaker 3: that's how you beat that kind of stuff.

190
00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:21,920
Speaker 4: You got it.

191
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,640
Speaker 3: You can't let them break a tackle or they go

192
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,440
Speaker 3: What are your keys to the Patriots defense?

193
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: Well, I kind of already.

194
00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 2: Talked about it when I when I yeah, I get

195
00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:33,080
Speaker 2: after Stidham.

196
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:35,559
Speaker 1: Uh that that was a key. I already talked.

197
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:36,720
Speaker 4: What are you concerned about?

198
00:09:36,720 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: Then?

199
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 2: Okay, what I'm concerned about? Kind of you you talked

200
00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 2: about it. We sum them up pretty well, you know

201
00:09:43,400 --> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: at the beginning, you know of talking about the Patriots

202
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,600
Speaker 2: is that they got to take care of the football.

203
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,319
Speaker 2: They got away with it last week obviously because Houston

204
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,520
Speaker 2: decided to turn the ball over even more than the Patriots.

205
00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: Like that was a game, you know, technically where you

206
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:03,160
Speaker 2: lose ninety nine percent of the time, you know, when

207
00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,120
Speaker 2: you turn the ball over that many times, but then

208
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:08,719
Speaker 2: with somehow with Houston turning the ball over even more, well,

209
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:11,920
Speaker 2: then the advantage is you know, in your favor still

210
00:10:12,000 --> 00:10:14,040
Speaker 2: even though you put the ball on the ground that

211
00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,160
Speaker 2: many times. But they got to take care of the

212
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:19,520
Speaker 2: ball overus Denver. That's how they thrive, you know, That's

213
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:23,480
Speaker 2: how that defense thrives is turnovers and getting you know,

214
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:27,280
Speaker 2: getting the momentum going because you know, they're dominating on

215
00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:29,160
Speaker 2: the defensive side of the ball, so they just got

216
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,520
Speaker 2: to protect the ball. Make smart choices, you know with

217
00:10:32,640 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 2: that football. Don't try to you know, fit it inhere

218
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,760
Speaker 2: in with a throw that technically shouldn't be thrown that way.

219
00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:43,240
Speaker 2: Throw it away, you know, make sure you're punting, you know,

220
00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 2: instead of throwing an interception. You know, it makes sure

221
00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,720
Speaker 2: you're kicking a field goal instead of going for it

222
00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,400
Speaker 2: when the momentum is not there, you know, and getting

223
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 2: stopped and get the points on the board, especially when

224
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:59,080
Speaker 2: you're on the road and an atmosphere like Denver.

225
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,719
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm concerned about how they're gonna get that defensive

226
00:11:03,760 --> 00:11:04,480
Speaker 3: line blocked.

227
00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:06,000
Speaker 1: Uh.

228
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 4: Last week.

229
00:11:07,760 --> 00:11:10,240
Speaker 3: A lot of those turnovers came because those guys were

230
00:11:10,280 --> 00:11:16,640
Speaker 3: on Drake super quick, super fast. And I know Anderson

231
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:23,439
Speaker 3: and h who's the Hunter. I know Anderson and Hunter

232
00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:26,400
Speaker 3: are really good, but so are Nick Benito and Cooper.

233
00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:29,520
Speaker 3: And they got an Allen in the middle for the

234
00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,839
Speaker 3: Broncos offensive defensive line. That d line's probably they got

235
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,200
Speaker 3: the most sacks I think in like history seventy one

236
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:40,960
Speaker 3: that like that's insane. They had seventy one sacks this year,

237
00:11:41,240 --> 00:11:43,079
Speaker 3: So how are we gonna.

238
00:11:42,720 --> 00:11:45,960
Speaker 4: How are we gonna block them? Okay, how are we

239
00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:46,640
Speaker 4: gonna block them?

240
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 3: Are we gonna help our young tackle that had a

241
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:52,959
Speaker 3: little you know, Campbell had a little he had a

242
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 3: little bit of a day last week. That wasn't that

243
00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:58,680
Speaker 3: that was a little suspect. They kind of teed off

244
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 3: on him. They got they got three him a lot.

245
00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:03,120
Speaker 3: So how are we going to help him? How are

246
00:12:03,120 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 3: we going to change up? How's Josh McDaniel's gonna call

247
00:12:05,679 --> 00:12:07,720
Speaker 3: the plays? How's he gonna run away from these?

248
00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,079
Speaker 4: I don't know. I think that's the big thing.

249
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,520
Speaker 3: How are we going to block this defensive line in

250
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 3: passing situations so we don't have to turn the ball over?

251
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,760
Speaker 2: Well, you know, for the defense of Will Campbell, it

252
00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:26,000
Speaker 2: was one of his first games back from injury.

253
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:26,880
Speaker 1: Julian one.

254
00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:31,800
Speaker 2: Of the two best rushers, two of the best rushers

255
00:12:31,800 --> 00:12:32,480
Speaker 2: in the game.

256
00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:34,920
Speaker 3: I know he's got to get to the next two

257
00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:37,960
Speaker 3: best rushers.

258
00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,240
Speaker 1: But he's gonna back up.

259
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,360
Speaker 3: And I'm just saying he's gonna find a way to

260
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,439
Speaker 3: help our young player out.

261
00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:47,200
Speaker 2: And yes, definitely, and he knows that he didn't have

262
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,560
Speaker 2: a great game either. That's what I really That's why

263
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 2: I really like about him though, is that he takes responsibility.

264
00:12:52,400 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 1: He's not putting blame. We got to talk about it,

265
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 1: talk about it. We got to help him out.

266
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,840
Speaker 2: We got to Hunter Henry get in there, Austin Hooper,

267
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:06,560
Speaker 2: chip the defender. I chip defenders all the time, whenever

268
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:10,000
Speaker 2: our tackles were having struggles defensive.

269
00:13:09,600 --> 00:13:11,320
Speaker 1: Fense, and there you go, just chip them.

270
00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:13,079
Speaker 2: Just just let the d n know that the tight

271
00:13:13,200 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 2: end is going to be there before every route, before

272
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 2: every pass rush, and he's gonna hit you first and

273
00:13:17,080 --> 00:13:19,760
Speaker 2: slow you down. So that's the way you help out

274
00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,680
Speaker 2: an offensive tackle, especially one that struggled the week before.

275
00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:24,680
Speaker 4: But I would they got to put that in.

276
00:13:24,880 --> 00:13:26,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got to put that in.

277
00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,040
Speaker 2: And Josh McDaniels will make adjustments like that and he

278
00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:31,360
Speaker 2: did with me plenty of times, you know, to help

279
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:32,040
Speaker 2: out the tackles.

280
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:33,040
Speaker 1: So that's going to be put in.

281
00:13:33,160 --> 00:13:36,280
Speaker 2: I'm sure this game coming up, you know, against defensive

282
00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,000
Speaker 2: line for the Denver Broncos and the X Factory for

283
00:13:39,080 --> 00:13:41,080
Speaker 2: the Patriots. In this one, I'm gonna go with the

284
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 2: defensive backs.

285
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:44,520
Speaker 6: Christian Gonzalez came out, wait, wait a minutenute, wait a minute,

286
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:50,520
Speaker 6: hold one second? Okay, also or forget to you know,

287
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:55,800
Speaker 6: they're playing in Denver. We had to invent a new

288
00:13:55,960 --> 00:13:58,679
Speaker 6: snap count double silent.

289
00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 3: Because that crowd is so loud, and those freaking defensive

290
00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:08,120
Speaker 3: ends with von Miller at the time were getting off

291
00:14:08,120 --> 00:14:10,160
Speaker 3: the ball so fast. I just wanted to remind you

292
00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:15,000
Speaker 3: Rob Nick, Benito and Cooper the fast gettest the fastest

293
00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 3: get offs in the league, I think sandwiched in between

294
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:18,960
Speaker 3: Miles Garrett.

295
00:14:18,960 --> 00:14:20,320
Speaker 4: Miles Garrett's the second fastest.

296
00:14:20,400 --> 00:14:23,560
Speaker 3: Like so, like these guys get off, especially with snap count,

297
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,480
Speaker 3: especially loud crowd. My concern is that how are we

298
00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:29,320
Speaker 3: gonna block them. That's all here we go. I'll let

299
00:14:29,400 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 3: you get here, and I'll let you get to here.

300
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:32,640
Speaker 2: Let's get no I want to I want to go

301
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 2: off of that. You're right, man, Denver is one of

302
00:14:34,360 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 2: the hardest places to play. You got the elevation, you know,

303
00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:40,000
Speaker 2: but on top of that, it's all people listening, crowds,

304
00:14:40,440 --> 00:14:44,200
Speaker 2: one of the loudest crowds in the NFL. It's it's

305
00:14:44,240 --> 00:14:46,840
Speaker 2: Seattle's the twelfth Man. Also, Denver has a twelfth Man

306
00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: as well because the top.

307
00:14:47,840 --> 00:14:50,800
Speaker 1: Three for sure. I always stay here city.

308
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 4: Denver. Those are like outdoor loud, out there loud.

309
00:14:55,600 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 1: I would agree.

310
00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,600
Speaker 2: So in this case to be for you to be ready,

311
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,280
Speaker 2: hold on, to be ready for that crowd and be

312
00:15:04,400 --> 00:15:05,680
Speaker 2: ready for that silent count.

313
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,120
Speaker 1: They better be on that silent.

314
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:13,800
Speaker 2: Count on every single snap this practice with the speakers

315
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:17,520
Speaker 2: blaring the loudest music where all of Foxborough and all

316
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 2: of the city of Boston from Foxborough, from the music

317
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,960
Speaker 2: coming from Foxborough can hear as well thirty miles away

318
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:28,040
Speaker 2: in the city of Boston. That's how loud those speakers

319
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 2: need to be to replicate you know, how loud the

320
00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 2: crowd is going to be in Denver. So now let's

321
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: get back to the different snap counts and different snap counts.

322
00:15:36,040 --> 00:15:40,120
Speaker 2: You know, when silent count, two, silent counts, three silent counts,

323
00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: you got to switch it up. But you can't let

324
00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 2: the defenders, you know, catch on and get in a

325
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:45,800
Speaker 2: rhythm with the silent counter, else they're going.

326
00:15:45,800 --> 00:15:47,280
Speaker 1: To be either going to be.

327
00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:51,400
Speaker 2: So far ahead of the snap count that the that

328
00:15:51,480 --> 00:15:53,320
Speaker 2: the offensive tackles won't even have a chance.

329
00:15:53,400 --> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: And so got to switch it up.

330
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:56,720
Speaker 2: But now let's get back to the X factor for

331
00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: the Patriots and this one. For this game, I'm going

332
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:03,400
Speaker 2: with the defensive backs Christian Gonzales and Carlton Davis because

333
00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 2: if they dominate, you know, their wide receivers, if they

334
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 2: cover them like how they should cover them, well, guess

335
00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:13,280
Speaker 2: why that's gonna make Jared's did them that much more frustrated.

336
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:16,440
Speaker 2: You know, the guy that barely been playing, you know,

337
00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:20,000
Speaker 2: he's been a back up, has no snaps this year.

338
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: You know, at the quarterback position.

339
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:27,240
Speaker 2: If the DB's come in hot and cover like how

340
00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:31,280
Speaker 2: they can cover, you know, at top of their game, that's.

341
00:16:31,080 --> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 1: Going to be the X factor.

342
00:16:32,680 --> 00:16:36,440
Speaker 2: You know, going into this Sunday in the ASC Championship game,

343
00:16:36,480 --> 00:16:39,160
Speaker 2: and wide receiver unit is banged up too, so it

344
00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,880
Speaker 2: can make it that much more harder.

345
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:48,080
Speaker 1: That's a great X factor, Rob, I appreciate that. You're

346
00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:52,480
Speaker 1: so nice man, You're a good guy. I like it.

347
00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:54,160
Speaker 1: It's a good one. What's your X factor?

348
00:16:55,640 --> 00:16:56,520
Speaker 4: My X factor?

349
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,640
Speaker 1: Besides these guns right here that are on look at me.

350
00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:01,520
Speaker 1: I'm foxing.

351
00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 2: I just worked out yesterday, so I'm feeling jacked.

352
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:07,000
Speaker 3: I need to get what's your X factor? My X

353
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:14,040
Speaker 3: factor is special teams Marcus Jones.

354
00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:16,000
Speaker 4: I want to.

355
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:20,880
Speaker 3: I think an explosion play early in the kicking game

356
00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,880
Speaker 3: will shut that fucking crowd wide up.

357
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 4: Oh okay, it'll shut it up. What do you have

358
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,040
Speaker 4: to do to shut the crowd up?

359
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:32,640
Speaker 3: You make a play, you do it early, and they're

360
00:17:32,680 --> 00:17:37,800
Speaker 3: out of it. Okay, Marcus Jones's house of punt, that's

361
00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,600
Speaker 3: house a dynamic kickoff rule thing, whatever we want to

362
00:17:40,640 --> 00:17:46,200
Speaker 3: call that play. We need something explosive in the kicking game.

363
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 3: Maybe maybe a punt where uh there's sun work in

364
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 3: from Denver because it's always fucking sunny there in January.

365
00:17:54,320 --> 00:17:57,520
Speaker 3: Anytime we play there and the sun gets reflected in

366
00:17:57,520 --> 00:17:59,399
Speaker 3: the punt returner's eyes and he muffs it. We need

367
00:17:59,480 --> 00:18:04,360
Speaker 3: an explodeon play in special teams that'll be the X factor.

368
00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:07,200
Speaker 7: Like it.

369
00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:10,399
Speaker 1: That's a good one. That's a good one, Julian, I

370
00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:11,239
Speaker 1: like it. You're right, though.

371
00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,320
Speaker 2: You got to shut the crowd up right away, bright

372
00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:15,720
Speaker 2: and early, and that's how you do it, man, especially

373
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: on special teams, like yeah, you can, you can have

374
00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: a pick on defense, you can make a big play

375
00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,320
Speaker 2: on offense to shut the crowd up. But nothing shuts

376
00:18:23,320 --> 00:18:26,200
Speaker 2: the crowd up even more than a big special.

377
00:18:25,840 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: Teams play, So I like that one.

378
00:18:27,680 --> 00:18:30,200
Speaker 2: Marcus Jones, he is an X factor as well when

379
00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:32,639
Speaker 2: when he gets going, I mean, his speed and quickness

380
00:18:32,760 --> 00:18:33,840
Speaker 2: is just ridiculous.

381
00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:35,440
Speaker 4: He's a great patriot.

382
00:18:36,600 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 3: Just like last week, he's been huge in the return game.

383
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,320
Speaker 4: That is like, he's a patriot patriot.

384
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: And and what makes him a patriot patriot is that

385
00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:51,439
Speaker 2: he didn't have a role or a position or what

386
00:18:51,520 --> 00:18:53,360
Speaker 2: he was going to do, you know, when he got

387
00:18:53,400 --> 00:18:57,640
Speaker 2: to the you know Patriots, it's hey, it's how can

388
00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:01,000
Speaker 2: you carve a role out from all the hard work

389
00:19:01,040 --> 00:19:03,119
Speaker 2: that you put in? And that's what makes you a

390
00:19:03,160 --> 00:19:06,200
Speaker 2: great patriot. And that's why and that's what's making him

391
00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,320
Speaker 2: a great Patriot because he's finding a role on the

392
00:19:08,359 --> 00:19:11,919
Speaker 2: defensive side of the ball and also on special teams.

393
00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:15,000
Speaker 3: Big time second team All Pro. We'll be right back

394
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,520
Speaker 3: after this quick break. All right, now, let's get into

395
00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 3: the keys for the Broncos offense. Broncos offensive keys to victory.

396
00:19:24,160 --> 00:19:30,679
Speaker 3: For me, I think it's very similar to the Patriots.

397
00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 3: Let's play to the strength of our team. Our strength

398
00:19:33,800 --> 00:19:36,080
Speaker 3: of our team is our defense. We have our backup

399
00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 3: quarterback in so our offense. Let's not fuck it up. Okay,

400
00:19:40,200 --> 00:19:44,480
Speaker 3: let's punt or kick field goals after every drive. Let's

401
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 3: not turn the ball over and give a short field

402
00:19:46,480 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 3: to a Patriots team that's got a quarterback that can

403
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:51,240
Speaker 3: run off, run all over the field on you if

404
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:57,080
Speaker 3: something crazy shit happens. So for me, backup quarterback on offense.

405
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,879
Speaker 3: Let's have good operation. Let's have great communication because we

406
00:20:01,960 --> 00:20:04,960
Speaker 3: have the home field, it's going to be our advantage.

407
00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:07,879
Speaker 3: Let's get the right play calleds didn't can do that,

408
00:20:08,280 --> 00:20:09,640
Speaker 3: and let's take care of the football.

409
00:20:09,680 --> 00:20:12,679
Speaker 1: That is the key for the Broncos offense. For me,

410
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,080
Speaker 1: what is your key? I mean.

411
00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,720
Speaker 2: Control the game there, Yeah you did, man, that was impressible.

412
00:20:21,720 --> 00:20:24,400
Speaker 2: Control the game, control the line of scrimmage. I mean

413
00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:27,439
Speaker 2: you already brought it up, but you can't emphasize it

414
00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:31,000
Speaker 2: enough even more, you know, play into your defense, don't

415
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:36,960
Speaker 2: turn the ball over, you know, give your defense, you know,

416
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 2: great field position instead of you know, a turnover, trying

417
00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:43,840
Speaker 2: to squeeze in a big play when it's not there.

418
00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:48,679
Speaker 2: Don't force the ball, throw it away when it's needed.

419
00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,399
Speaker 2: So it's kind of the same. You know, you talked

420
00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,600
Speaker 2: about it, Julian. Just now and also get Jared's didham going.

421
00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,640
Speaker 2: Don't try to make you know, you know all Pro

422
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,199
Speaker 2: three right from the get go. You know, have a

423
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:05,000
Speaker 2: couple of sweeps, you know, have a couple of swing passes,

424
00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:07,520
Speaker 2: couple slants, a couple diagnosed, you know, a couple of

425
00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:11,000
Speaker 2: hook routes. Get him going, get him to feel comfortable

426
00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:13,919
Speaker 2: in the pocket, and get him in a rhythm instead

427
00:21:13,920 --> 00:21:15,840
Speaker 2: of trying to throw deep right from the beginning.

428
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:19,560
Speaker 1: Love that. What would you say?

429
00:21:19,600 --> 00:21:22,440
Speaker 2: Some of the keys to the game for the Broncos

430
00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 2: on the defensive side of the ball Jewels.

431
00:21:25,720 --> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 3: Defense. We gotta pressure Drake May. We gotta do everything

432
00:21:32,359 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 3: that Houston did last week. Copycat league, do everything Houston

433
00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:41,360
Speaker 3: did last week and see if they got it cleaned up.

434
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 3: And then have a couple of things, a couple new

435
00:21:43,800 --> 00:21:49,720
Speaker 3: wrinkles on those like third downs, gotta have gotta throw plays,

436
00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:52,239
Speaker 3: you know, let's have let's see what they can do,

437
00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:55,600
Speaker 3: and let's see if they can protect because we got

438
00:21:55,640 --> 00:21:59,879
Speaker 3: guys too. We got Cooper, and we got Bonito, and

439
00:22:00,119 --> 00:22:02,040
Speaker 3: we got Alan and they got they got to they

440
00:22:02,040 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 3: got a whole bunch of guys. So let's get Drake

441
00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:08,879
Speaker 3: uncomfortable and they got to stop the run, because the

442
00:22:08,920 --> 00:22:12,800
Speaker 3: Patriots offense got a sneaky, really really good run game.

443
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: They really do.

444
00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:16,119
Speaker 2: And you just took that one from me, Julian, and

445
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,000
Speaker 2: you said, put pressure on Drake may Well, I was

446
00:22:18,080 --> 00:22:20,360
Speaker 2: gonna say, they got to stop the run better than

447
00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,639
Speaker 2: last week. I mean, they gave up one hundred and

448
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:25,560
Speaker 2: eighteen yards to James Cook. I mean, but James Cook

449
00:22:25,800 --> 00:22:27,880
Speaker 2: is got to give him, you know, his credit as well.

450
00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,840
Speaker 2: He averaged the most yards you know, per game in

451
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:34,000
Speaker 2: the NFL this year. But the Denver Broncos need to

452
00:22:34,040 --> 00:22:37,880
Speaker 2: stop that run game of the Patriots. That their run

453
00:22:37,920 --> 00:22:42,240
Speaker 2: game is very, very sneaky as well. In the Denver

454
00:22:42,280 --> 00:22:45,160
Speaker 2: Broncos they struggled on the early downs and we talked

455
00:22:45,160 --> 00:22:47,560
Speaker 2: about it, you know, same with the Patriots offense a

456
00:22:47,560 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 2: little bit versus Houston. So if Patriots, you know, want

457
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:53,280
Speaker 2: to take advantage of Denver, you know, they gotta move

458
00:22:53,320 --> 00:22:56,159
Speaker 2: the ball, you know, on first and second down. And Julian,

459
00:22:56,280 --> 00:22:58,440
Speaker 2: last week, I got to give you kudos. You said, Hey,

460
00:22:58,480 --> 00:23:00,400
Speaker 2: the Patriots, they need to move the ball on first

461
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:02,840
Speaker 2: and second down. Take three, take four yards on each

462
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:05,239
Speaker 2: of those plays. So it's third and short. Well, I

463
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:07,439
Speaker 2: was listening to the game in the first quarter, what

464
00:23:07,480 --> 00:23:10,160
Speaker 2: does Troy Aikman say. He goes, the Patriots are struggling

465
00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:12,280
Speaker 2: right now. You want to know why? He said it

466
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,760
Speaker 2: was along the lines because they're in third and long

467
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 2: throughout the whole game so far in the first quarter,

468
00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:20,040
Speaker 2: and that just lit up a bell. It lit up

469
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 2: a light in my mind and said, that's what Julian

470
00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:24,600
Speaker 2: said right from the beginning last week. The Patriots need

471
00:23:24,600 --> 00:23:27,360
Speaker 2: to move the ball, even if it's three yards per

472
00:23:27,400 --> 00:23:29,560
Speaker 2: play on first and second down, so they're in third

473
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 2: and short and third and manageable so they can complete those.

474
00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:35,760
Speaker 1: Third downs and keep the chains going. So same thing.

475
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:39,399
Speaker 2: You know, that's a great tip once again, especially with

476
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:42,880
Speaker 2: the Denver defense struggling, you know on the early downs

477
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:43,600
Speaker 2: last week.

478
00:23:44,400 --> 00:23:45,280
Speaker 4: One thousand percent.

479
00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,160
Speaker 3: I mean, you can you can't do all the fancy

480
00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,520
Speaker 3: cool stuff with your defensive line if you're in third

481
00:23:51,560 --> 00:23:55,520
Speaker 3: and three. You can only do that with third seven plus.

482
00:23:55,760 --> 00:23:58,120
Speaker 3: That's when it starts. That's when it gets home. That's

483
00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 3: when the pressure's there. That's when you know what I mean.

484
00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:04,199
Speaker 3: So if you if you can get those third downs along,

485
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,200
Speaker 3: that's when you get to see Nick Benito and Cooper

486
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 3: do their little.

487
00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 1: Yes, no doubt about that.

488
00:24:09,720 --> 00:24:15,199
Speaker 2: And also one other thing as well, is like the

489
00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: Buffalo Bills on the very first drive last week versus

490
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,280
Speaker 2: Denver Broncos, it was very impressive what they were doing.

491
00:24:22,880 --> 00:24:24,920
Speaker 1: They were really it was.

492
00:24:24,920 --> 00:24:30,800
Speaker 2: Really the deceptive on the offensive side of the ball.

493
00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:34,120
Speaker 2: It was like a college offense and it was throwing

494
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:37,960
Speaker 2: the timing off of the Denver Broncos defense.

495
00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:41,440
Speaker 1: And I really loved what the Buffalo Bills were doing.

496
00:24:41,480 --> 00:24:43,479
Speaker 2: And they moved the ball right down the field on

497
00:24:43,520 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 2: that first drive because of that reason. There was so

498
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 2: much going on, so much motion, and what really stood

499
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 2: out was to play action. On that first drive, Josh

500
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,320
Speaker 2: Allen like he kind of slid to the left like

501
00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:57,760
Speaker 2: two yards and then he threw the ball. I never

502
00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: seen a quarterback not drop back. He slid to the left.

503
00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:05,840
Speaker 2: That's how deciptive, deceptive, you know. Their play calling was

504
00:25:06,000 --> 00:25:08,159
Speaker 2: that they were drawing up on that first drive. They

505
00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,080
Speaker 2: kind of got away from it for rest of the game,

506
00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,200
Speaker 2: but that was working. So I wonder if the Patriots

507
00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 2: are going to take note of that and have a

508
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 2: couple of plays where it would throw off the defense

509
00:25:18,080 --> 00:25:21,280
Speaker 2: if they copycat the first drive of the Buffalo Bills

510
00:25:21,359 --> 00:25:21,840
Speaker 2: last week.

511
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 1: I like that. What are you concerned about for the Broncos.

512
00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:28,040
Speaker 2: I mean we kind of talked about it, you know,

513
00:25:28,119 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 2: the run defense. They gave up all the guards last

514
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:34,520
Speaker 2: week to Buffalo Bills. Also, I'm just concerned can they

515
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,000
Speaker 2: put a complete game together. They really haven't done that.

516
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,199
Speaker 2: They've been winning, but they've been struggling winning games like

517
00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 2: once again. I mean they kind of got away with

518
00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:45,000
Speaker 2: it again last week versus the Buffalo Bills. Can they

519
00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:48,480
Speaker 2: get away with, you know, their mistakes and be able

520
00:25:48,520 --> 00:25:50,800
Speaker 2: to conquer a team like the Patriots?

521
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:51,720
Speaker 1: I don't think so.

522
00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,520
Speaker 2: You know, this is a game where Patriots take advantage

523
00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,159
Speaker 2: of the other team's mistakes. That's what the Patriots do,

524
00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:00,880
Speaker 2: you know, especially throughout the whole year this year. The team, Yes,

525
00:26:00,920 --> 00:26:03,320
Speaker 2: they've been get turning the ball over and putting the

526
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,720
Speaker 2: ball on the ground a lot, you know, on the

527
00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:07,840
Speaker 2: offense side of the ball. But that's not going to

528
00:26:07,960 --> 00:26:10,320
Speaker 2: happen again. I don't think I feel like they're going

529
00:26:10,359 --> 00:26:13,199
Speaker 2: to button it up. So the Denver Broncos, you know,

530
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:16,640
Speaker 2: they just they just they just need to, you know,

531
00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:19,360
Speaker 2: get that going right from the beginning.

532
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,480
Speaker 3: What is Mike Rabel's quote, we just want to be

533
00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:24,840
Speaker 3: good enough to take advantage of bad.

534
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,320
Speaker 2: Football, exactly exactly, And that's exactly what he's saying. That's

535
00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:31,840
Speaker 2: exactly what I was just explaining, is that the Broncos,

536
00:26:32,240 --> 00:26:34,720
Speaker 2: you know, play some bad football at times. They don't

537
00:26:34,720 --> 00:26:38,679
Speaker 2: button it up, and that's the concern for the Denver Broncos.

538
00:26:38,840 --> 00:26:40,720
Speaker 1: I mean, that's fine with me if they don't do that.

539
00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,520
Speaker 3: I think they play that bad of football. They just

540
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,280
Speaker 3: they just don't. They don't turn the ball over a bunch.

541
00:26:48,200 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 3: They just don't get going and they don't they don't

542
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,000
Speaker 3: get in a rhythm.

543
00:26:52,480 --> 00:26:56,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's kind of it, though. That's that's kind of

544
00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 2: a turnover. You don't get in a rhythm. You're punting

545
00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:00,560
Speaker 2: three and out, you're moving the ball two yards and

546
00:27:00,640 --> 00:27:01,119
Speaker 2: you're punching.

547
00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:02,639
Speaker 1: That's a turnover right there. To me.

548
00:27:02,680 --> 00:27:04,480
Speaker 2: When it's that quick over three and now and you

549
00:27:04,560 --> 00:27:06,240
Speaker 2: only take thirty seconds off the clock.

550
00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:09,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like that. I'm concerned.

551
00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 3: Like I think Stid's good and all, but I'm still

552
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:14,919
Speaker 3: You're going to the AFC Championship with the guy that

553
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:16,040
Speaker 3: hasn't started in a while.

554
00:27:16,160 --> 00:27:17,040
Speaker 4: I'm concerned.

555
00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:20,879
Speaker 3: You know, I'd be concerned about, how is our backup

556
00:27:20,960 --> 00:27:24,720
Speaker 3: quarterback going to play on the biggest stage of all

557
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:28,320
Speaker 3: stages other than the Super Bowl, Like, this is a

558
00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:33,760
Speaker 3: big stage and he's not going against He's going against

559
00:27:33,760 --> 00:27:39,399
Speaker 3: probably the sneakiest defense left. Like no one talks about

560
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:43,200
Speaker 3: this defense, but they have put together a nice little resume,

561
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 3: even though it's against bad teams everyone wants to talk about.

562
00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 3: But you know, Milt Williams and Barmore in the middle

563
00:27:50,440 --> 00:27:55,240
Speaker 3: are insane, Christian Gonzalez and Davis on the outside really good.

564
00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 3: They're getting really good production out of Woodson, the safety

565
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:04,320
Speaker 3: from cal Like, they got defensive playmakers and they know

566
00:28:04,359 --> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 3: how to play. And Rabel's a smart freaking due that's

567
00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:10,640
Speaker 3: gonna have some wrinkles to try to confuse that backup quarterback.

568
00:28:10,640 --> 00:28:13,840
Speaker 3: They're gonna do something that they haven't been doing probably,

569
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 3: So you know, I'm concerned about that. I think it's

570
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 3: gonna be a hell of a game. I can't wait

571
00:28:19,760 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 3: to watch.

572
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 1: It really will be.

573
00:28:21,880 --> 00:28:24,960
Speaker 2: I think Denver has the advantage because it's at home,

574
00:28:25,520 --> 00:28:28,280
Speaker 2: but I think the New England Patriots have a better team.

575
00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:32,960
Speaker 2: So it's gonna make this game that much more special

576
00:28:33,520 --> 00:28:34,919
Speaker 2: because of those two scenarios.

577
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,520
Speaker 1: You know. See, I think on both side of the ball.

578
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,320
Speaker 3: I think the Broncos have more better players. But I

579
00:28:41,360 --> 00:28:44,320
Speaker 3: agree with you the Patriots have a better team.

580
00:28:44,080 --> 00:28:47,680
Speaker 2: Right now, exactly, Jules. That's what I'm saying, baby. So

581
00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:50,160
Speaker 2: with that being said, nothing to do with Sean Payton

582
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,959
Speaker 2: is coaching. I just think that when you lose your

583
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,479
Speaker 2: starting quarterback, that's different.

584
00:28:55,800 --> 00:28:56,600
Speaker 4: That's a different team.

585
00:28:58,360 --> 00:29:01,720
Speaker 2: I mean, the Patriots just jelt together. They're one of

586
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:05,920
Speaker 2: the best gelling teams. I would say, top three gelling teams,

587
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,200
Speaker 2: you know, since the beginning of the year in the NFL.

588
00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,440
Speaker 2: And with that being said, let's have some AFC Championship

589
00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 2: predictions here, Julian, who's gonna win this game?

590
00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:20,200
Speaker 4: Going Patriots twenty four to seventeen?

591
00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 1: I like it. I had twenty four twenty one. I

592
00:29:28,920 --> 00:29:31,520
Speaker 1: actually four, not gonna lie.

593
00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:35,200
Speaker 2: I had the same score as you for the Patriots.

594
00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:37,480
Speaker 2: In my head, I was gonna say the Patriots are

595
00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:40,840
Speaker 2: going to score twenty four. The Patriots are also gonna win.

596
00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:44,320
Speaker 2: And since you said twenty four to twenty one Patriots,

597
00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say twenty four to eighteen. Patriots win this game.

598
00:29:49,800 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 2: They they it's a revenge. It's a revenge game for US. Julian,

599
00:29:54,000 --> 00:29:57,840
Speaker 2: It's a revenge game we lost there in twenty sixteen

600
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,120
Speaker 2: AFC Championship game. Well, this is the revenge for the

601
00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:05,680
Speaker 2: Patriots versus the Denver Broncos. They're gonna win this game

602
00:30:05,760 --> 00:30:07,920
Speaker 2: and take it home and go to the Super Bowl.

603
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:11,000
Speaker 3: That's gonna be awesome if they can get I mean,

604
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:16,240
Speaker 3: it's hard to play there, but I just you know,

605
00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,320
Speaker 3: it's tough. You got a backup quarter how we don't know.

606
00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:22,560
Speaker 3: I know Stid he's a great player, great backup. But

607
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,880
Speaker 3: like when you're playing against in scout team, going against

608
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:28,880
Speaker 3: the one defense where they can't hit you. I mean,

609
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,360
Speaker 3: it's different than playing live bullets, well oiled machines. Teams

610
00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 3: that have been playing freaking great football for the last

611
00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:36,719
Speaker 3: two months.

612
00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:38,320
Speaker 4: It's crazy.

613
00:30:38,760 --> 00:30:41,160
Speaker 3: Let's head up to Seattle to take a look at

614
00:30:41,200 --> 00:30:45,240
Speaker 3: the NFC Championship game between the Los Angeles Rams and

615
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:54,400
Speaker 3: the Seattle Seahawks. Seahawks, Seahawks, Seahawks, Seahawks. See what are

616
00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 3: the keys? What are the keys for the Rams offense?

617
00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,800
Speaker 3: Rob Let's start with the Rams.

618
00:31:00,520 --> 00:31:05,120
Speaker 2: Okay keys, our stafford just making clutch throws and clutch situations.

619
00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:06,720
Speaker 1: He's been doing that throughout the year.

620
00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:10,720
Speaker 2: He did it many times last week, you know, versus

621
00:31:10,840 --> 00:31:13,360
Speaker 2: Chicago Bears, and that's why they won that game.

622
00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:14,400
Speaker 1: That's why they moved on.

623
00:31:15,040 --> 00:31:18,160
Speaker 2: You know, I'm not just talking clutch throws, you know,

624
00:31:18,240 --> 00:31:21,960
Speaker 2: at all times, you know, or when it doesn't matter.

625
00:31:22,040 --> 00:31:26,080
Speaker 2: I'm talking the clutch throws and clutch situations and key

626
00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:30,239
Speaker 2: situations you know, throughout the game. And that's you know,

627
00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:34,880
Speaker 2: the key to this game for the Rams offense, Campuka

628
00:31:35,280 --> 00:31:38,240
Speaker 2: and Devonte Adams and the eight tight ends that he

629
00:31:38,360 --> 00:31:43,120
Speaker 2: has go up and make that catch because the throw

630
00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:47,160
Speaker 2: is there for only the offensive player to make that catch,

631
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,080
Speaker 2: you know, because that's a clutch throw where the guy's covered,

632
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,360
Speaker 2: but it's only put where your offensive player can go

633
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:58,440
Speaker 2: up and snatch it up in the air. So that's

634
00:31:58,480 --> 00:32:01,040
Speaker 2: the key what I see to this game, you know,

635
00:32:01,560 --> 00:32:03,680
Speaker 2: is those situations right there.

636
00:32:04,880 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think me the key to their offense is

637
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,600
Speaker 3: finding a rhythm. They seem so out of rhythm last game.

638
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:13,400
Speaker 4: I know it was.

639
00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:18,120
Speaker 3: Freezing conditionings, but they last couple of weeks they haven't

640
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,160
Speaker 3: looked like the well oil machine they wear all year

641
00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:24,360
Speaker 3: on offense. You know, it's been kind of a struggle,

642
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:28,040
Speaker 3: but they've been playing against elements. I'm sure it's going

643
00:32:28,080 --> 00:32:30,520
Speaker 3: to be something going on in Seattle. There could be

644
00:32:30,600 --> 00:32:34,320
Speaker 3: some rain this weekend. I think they got to find

645
00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 3: that rhythm and then you know, like I think they

646
00:32:38,240 --> 00:32:41,560
Speaker 3: got to be able to adjust to the adjustments. How

647
00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:44,240
Speaker 3: are they going to do after the script that those

648
00:32:44,280 --> 00:32:47,800
Speaker 3: West Coast offenses love, that fifteen to twenty places script

649
00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,480
Speaker 3: they have, and then they you know what I mean,

650
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:52,800
Speaker 3: Those offenses always start out firing and then the other

651
00:32:52,880 --> 00:32:55,640
Speaker 3: team adjusts to their thing and then you know what

652
00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:00,240
Speaker 3: I mean. So I think that finding a rhythm and

653
00:33:00,520 --> 00:33:01,880
Speaker 3: adjusting to the adjustments.

654
00:33:03,080 --> 00:33:05,280
Speaker 2: Okay, you know, those are some good keys right there

655
00:33:05,280 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 2: for the offense. We already know that. You know they're

656
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:10,480
Speaker 2: going to be explosive. They have a lot of explosive

657
00:33:10,480 --> 00:33:13,280
Speaker 2: plays with Devontae Adams in the red zone, Poka Nakula

658
00:33:13,440 --> 00:33:16,560
Speaker 2: just any time, anywhere, any place on the field.

659
00:33:17,160 --> 00:33:18,760
Speaker 1: They got some solid running backs.

660
00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,160
Speaker 2: The tight ends they're big, they're big, they're guys like

661
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:25,120
Speaker 2: my size, and they're pretty explosive, you know in those

662
00:33:25,120 --> 00:33:27,800
Speaker 2: personnels when they got two or three tight ends out

663
00:33:27,800 --> 00:33:29,640
Speaker 2: on the field. So we know that's going to be

664
00:33:29,680 --> 00:33:31,880
Speaker 2: the case. But can they find that rhythm and can

665
00:33:31,920 --> 00:33:34,880
Speaker 2: they be clutch is what it's all going to be about,

666
00:33:34,960 --> 00:33:38,240
Speaker 2: you know, to finish off the Seattle Seahawks in the end.

667
00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:40,080
Speaker 2: We'll see if they can do that. And some of

668
00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 2: the keys to the game for the Rams defense here

669
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,600
Speaker 2: is to put pressure on Sam Darnold. I mean, Jared

670
00:33:46,800 --> 00:33:51,040
Speaker 2: versus one of the most feared young bucks.

671
00:33:50,600 --> 00:33:51,320
Speaker 1: In the NFL.

672
00:33:51,560 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 2: You know, at the outside linebacker position, defensive endposition. You know,

673
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:59,440
Speaker 2: he's got to get to the quarterback. He's big, he's scary,

674
00:33:59,480 --> 00:34:03,000
Speaker 2: he's explosed off the line of scrimmage. Can you rattle

675
00:34:03,040 --> 00:34:05,920
Speaker 2: Sam Donald? Can you make Sam Donald the Sam Donald

676
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,200
Speaker 2: that we saw last year in Minneapolis, you know when

677
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,680
Speaker 2: he was in the playoffs at the quarterback position. Or

678
00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:16,399
Speaker 2: can you have no pressure? Let this offense just march

679
00:34:16,440 --> 00:34:19,440
Speaker 2: down the field, hand off the ball, hit JSN you know,

680
00:34:19,719 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 2: on quick slants, on quick passes, and keep this offense

681
00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:26,480
Speaker 2: going because there's no pressure, you know, on Sam Donald.

682
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:30,320
Speaker 2: I think that's a huge key. But Sam Donald also

683
00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,319
Speaker 2: may respond. I think he's a different quarterback than he was.

684
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,439
Speaker 2: I think he learned last year when he was in

685
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:42,040
Speaker 2: you know in Minneapolis, not Minneapolis Minnesota with the Vikings.

686
00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:45,480
Speaker 2: So I think you got to put like some serious,

687
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,440
Speaker 2: serious not just some pressure, some serious pressure on him

688
00:34:48,480 --> 00:34:49,240
Speaker 2: to get him rattled.

689
00:34:50,880 --> 00:34:53,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think the key for the Rams defense is

690
00:34:54,000 --> 00:34:57,680
Speaker 3: getting off the field. There's been plenty of times this

691
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,680
Speaker 3: year where they play really good defense, stopped the run,

692
00:35:00,719 --> 00:35:02,839
Speaker 3: but then like all of a sudden, the fourth and

693
00:35:02,880 --> 00:35:06,440
Speaker 3: sixth play with Caleb happens where he throws a touchdown

694
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:09,319
Speaker 3: on that play, How are we letting that touchdown up?

695
00:35:09,560 --> 00:35:13,120
Speaker 3: There's been I feel like there's been a few times

696
00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,239
Speaker 3: on gott to have it plays that defense that plays well,

697
00:35:17,360 --> 00:35:20,400
Speaker 3: all defense gives up a play Forbes gets beat or

698
00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:23,200
Speaker 3: you know what I mean. So getting off the field

699
00:35:23,239 --> 00:35:27,600
Speaker 3: on crucial moments, third downs and four point plays, third

700
00:35:27,680 --> 00:35:30,440
Speaker 3: downs in the red area and gotta have it plays

701
00:35:30,880 --> 00:35:33,279
Speaker 3: like at the end of the game, get off the

702
00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:36,080
Speaker 3: field because they have a great defense. Is sometimes they

703
00:35:36,239 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 3: give up that play when they've been holding them all

704
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:39,040
Speaker 3: all game.

705
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:44,600
Speaker 2: What are you worried about with the Rams just collapsing,

706
00:35:44,840 --> 00:35:47,440
Speaker 2: you know throughout the game. Sometimes they can just be

707
00:35:47,520 --> 00:35:53,200
Speaker 2: dominating all the phases, you know, and not all the phases.

708
00:35:53,239 --> 00:35:55,560
Speaker 2: I would actually say, I'm worried about their special teams.

709
00:35:55,640 --> 00:35:58,640
Speaker 2: You know, they've had some you know mistakes there throughout

710
00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:01,400
Speaker 2: the year. They've lost game because of special teams. The

711
00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,759
Speaker 2: other teams have been in it because their special teams

712
00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:07,360
Speaker 2: have made plenty of mistakes, I mean, couldn't execute. But

713
00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:10,400
Speaker 2: also on the offensive side of the ball and defensive

714
00:36:10,440 --> 00:36:12,960
Speaker 2: side of the ball, they sometimes are just dominating and

715
00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:16,000
Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, it just collapse and it's

716
00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:18,759
Speaker 2: like what happened to the Rams offense, Like they were

717
00:36:18,800 --> 00:36:20,800
Speaker 2: moving the ball, they were throwing it down the field.

718
00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:24,920
Speaker 2: It's just not there, you know, So that collapse cannot happen,

719
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,880
Speaker 2: especially versus a team like the Seattle Seahawks. They're going

720
00:36:27,960 --> 00:36:29,560
Speaker 2: to take advantage of that and then you're not going

721
00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 2: to have any chance in this game. And same with

722
00:36:32,080 --> 00:36:34,520
Speaker 2: their defensive side of the ball. I mean, they can dominate,

723
00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,920
Speaker 2: but there's times where they just disappear. So it's about

724
00:36:37,960 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 2: just playing you know, four quarters of football at all

725
00:36:42,239 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 2: times and playing at a high level at all times,

726
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:46,640
Speaker 2: because that's what you got to do in order, you know,

727
00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:48,600
Speaker 2: to have a chance to go to the Super Bowl.

728
00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:51,399
Speaker 1: In this NFC Championship game, for.

729
00:36:51,400 --> 00:36:54,480
Speaker 3: Me, it's the special teams one thousand percent. Can you

730
00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 3: elaborate more? Last week, well, the punt last like they

731
00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:00,799
Speaker 3: lost through two games because of block.

732
00:37:00,640 --> 00:37:01,880
Speaker 4: Kick special teams.

733
00:37:02,920 --> 00:37:07,040
Speaker 3: Last week when they were punting the ball back to Chicago,

734
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,799
Speaker 3: Chicago only had an opportunity because they muffed. Like the

735
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:13,919
Speaker 3: punt was like a thirty yard punt. They've had some

736
00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:19,319
Speaker 3: kickoffs they've given up. Just they're playing against a really

737
00:37:19,360 --> 00:37:24,919
Speaker 3: good special teams team like Rashid Shaheed Is is the guy,

738
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:27,440
Speaker 3: one of the guys in the league that can return

739
00:37:28,360 --> 00:37:32,759
Speaker 3: anything to the house. I mean La Rams what they're

740
00:37:32,800 --> 00:37:37,120
Speaker 3: special teams rating seventy eight, seventy four point eight according

741
00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,480
Speaker 3: to PFF, when Seattle, on the other hand, is ninety

742
00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 3: point four on PFF Special Teams rating. I have no

743
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:48,160
Speaker 3: idea what that means, but it sounds good and it

744
00:37:48,200 --> 00:37:52,000
Speaker 3: goes to my point. So I'm worried about the special teams.

745
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:55,040
Speaker 3: The X factor for the Rams in this one. For me,

746
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:03,839
Speaker 3: Davante got oh, okay, DeVante Adams, you gotta, he's gotta,

747
00:38:03,920 --> 00:38:05,200
Speaker 3: he's gotta be more involved.

748
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:07,720
Speaker 4: I think he only had a couple catches last week.

749
00:38:08,200 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 3: They need him to do well in in the Red

750
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:13,600
Speaker 3: area specifically and on third down. That's that's where he

751
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,399
Speaker 3: makes his money. If they're gonna cloud Puoka and give

752
00:38:17,480 --> 00:38:19,520
Speaker 3: all the coverage to Puka because they want to hit

753
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,560
Speaker 3: Pooka in the short game, middle game, deep game. They're

754
00:38:22,600 --> 00:38:24,920
Speaker 3: trying to get the ball to Puka to move those sticks.

755
00:38:25,680 --> 00:38:29,480
Speaker 3: DeVante Adams has to come through in those moments they

756
00:38:29,560 --> 00:38:31,800
Speaker 3: need him, which is specifically in the red area and

757
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:33,279
Speaker 3: h third down.

758
00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:34,560
Speaker 4: That's my X factor.

759
00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:36,359
Speaker 1: Well, my X.

760
00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:40,480
Speaker 2: Factor is his partner in crime, Pooka Nakula. The Rams

761
00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:44,640
Speaker 2: need Pooka the CoA to have a great game every game,

762
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:49,760
Speaker 2: you know, yes to in order to win these big games.

763
00:38:49,880 --> 00:38:52,680
Speaker 2: So he's gonna have to have another big game coming up.

764
00:38:52,719 --> 00:38:56,320
Speaker 2: You saw how many clutch moments and clutch catches Pooka

765
00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:00,080
Speaker 2: has made, clutch first downs, clutch you know, explosive plays,

766
00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:04,320
Speaker 2: you know, and big big plays as well, big yardage plays,

767
00:39:04,400 --> 00:39:06,960
Speaker 2: you know, to keep the Rams offense going throughout the

768
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:10,520
Speaker 2: year and keep the Rams offense going throughout the playoffs.

769
00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:12,879
Speaker 2: So far, so far in the two games that they

770
00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,120
Speaker 2: had in versus Carolina and the Chicago Bears.

771
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:19,040
Speaker 1: So it's Pooka Nakoola. He has to come out.

772
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,799
Speaker 2: Everyone's expecting the big game and he needs to have

773
00:39:21,920 --> 00:39:24,960
Speaker 2: another big game. And remember what he did in Week

774
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:29,320
Speaker 2: sixteen in Seattle. He had two hundred and twenty five

775
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:34,680
Speaker 2: yards Julian Week sixteen versus Seattle. He needs to do

776
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:37,440
Speaker 2: that again. He needs to do that, not two hundred

777
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:41,440
Speaker 2: and twenty five yards, but he needs at least another hondo,

778
00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:44,919
Speaker 2: you know, to be the X factor of this game.

779
00:39:44,960 --> 00:39:47,480
Speaker 2: And that's what the Rams need as well. I'm talking

780
00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,239
Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty five yards. Brother, he has a.

781
00:39:51,200 --> 00:39:55,279
Speaker 1: Lot of yardage. Lot It's a lot of yardage. A lot.

782
00:39:55,440 --> 00:40:00,680
Speaker 3: That's that's that's insane. He's a stud and you like

783
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,479
Speaker 3: his little flicks on people. We'll be right back after

784
00:40:03,520 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 3: this quick break. Let's jump on to the Seahawks. We'll

785
00:40:08,040 --> 00:40:11,240
Speaker 3: keep this one a little quicker. Keys to the games

786
00:40:11,239 --> 00:40:15,800
Speaker 3: for the Seahawks offense. For me, getting the run game going.

787
00:40:16,320 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 3: It seems to me that whenever the run game goes

788
00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:24,160
Speaker 3: for any offense that Sam Darnold's in, he's like, statistically

789
00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 3: one of the best play action quarterbacks. So if you

790
00:40:27,480 --> 00:40:30,160
Speaker 3: can get that run game going, I know Charbonnat is

791
00:40:30,239 --> 00:40:34,279
Speaker 3: hurt with the ACL, but Kenny Walker is a damn

792
00:40:34,280 --> 00:40:37,040
Speaker 3: good running back too. They got really good running backs.

793
00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:38,719
Speaker 3: And once you get that run game going, then you

794
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:41,480
Speaker 3: get JSN down the field, get a couple of Cooper

795
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:46,959
Speaker 3: Manning crossers on those little boots, get Sam rolling off

796
00:40:47,000 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 3: those playfakes. Gotta get the run game going, which is

797
00:40:50,920 --> 00:40:54,440
Speaker 3: hard against that defense. Is Frisk in the middle or

798
00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:55,920
Speaker 3: Fisk or Michigan.

799
00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 4: He's a bad boy.

800
00:40:57,840 --> 00:40:59,719
Speaker 2: And if you get the run game going, that opens

801
00:40:59,800 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 2: up the pass game for Sam Donald. And that's my key,

802
00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:04,359
Speaker 2: is to get Sam Donald going. Last week, he wasn't

803
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:06,919
Speaker 2: needed much. He did everything that he needed to do,

804
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:10,960
Speaker 2: but he only dropped back nineteen times. I mean, that's

805
00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,640
Speaker 2: that's nothing. He's gonna have to drop back plenty more

806
00:41:13,640 --> 00:41:16,480
Speaker 2: times this game. The Rams defense isn't the San Francisco

807
00:41:16,520 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 2: forty nine ers defense like they faced last week. He

808
00:41:19,400 --> 00:41:22,480
Speaker 2: only threw for one hundred and twenty four yards, but

809
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:25,439
Speaker 2: that's all they asked out of him. They didn't need

810
00:41:25,480 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 2: more out of them to dominate the forty nine ers.

811
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:30,120
Speaker 2: But they're gonna need more out of Sam Donald disc game,

812
00:41:30,440 --> 00:41:32,120
Speaker 2: you know, if they want to beat the Rams.

813
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: So they gotta get him going.

814
00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:38,000
Speaker 2: They gotta get him comfortable and They gotta get him rolling,

815
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:40,759
Speaker 2: move him outside of the pocket. He's been great at

816
00:41:40,800 --> 00:41:42,640
Speaker 2: that this year. He was great at it last week

817
00:41:42,680 --> 00:41:45,719
Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, that little injury has heal that up.

818
00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,160
Speaker 2: It will be healed up. It didn't really bother him

819
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:49,840
Speaker 2: last week and now he has another full week to

820
00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:53,480
Speaker 2: heal it up. So get Sam Donald rolling and get

821
00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:54,720
Speaker 2: it early and often.

822
00:41:56,000 --> 00:41:59,160
Speaker 1: What are your keys for the Seahawks defense? Oh? Man?

823
00:41:59,239 --> 00:42:02,920
Speaker 2: I mean the Seahawks defense who they're vicious?

824
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:03,120
Speaker 1: Man?

825
00:42:03,239 --> 00:42:06,440
Speaker 2: I mean DeMarcus Lawrence. You got Leonard Williams. Those are

826
00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:08,160
Speaker 2: those are the two keys right there. I mean I

827
00:42:08,239 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 2: faced DeMarcus Lawrence when I was in Tampa Bay my

828
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:13,279
Speaker 2: last year when he was on the Dallas Cowboys, and

829
00:42:13,920 --> 00:42:18,080
Speaker 2: he has elite energy. He's got great knack for the

830
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:21,880
Speaker 2: game of football, great knowledge of the game, and just

831
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 2: how high of a motor he has. It just brings

832
00:42:24,239 --> 00:42:28,080
Speaker 2: another level of intensity to this defense. And Leonard Williams

833
00:42:28,239 --> 00:42:30,080
Speaker 2: and also DeMarcus Lawrence.

834
00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,040
Speaker 1: He's a defensive end. And he had me in coverage.

835
00:42:32,040 --> 00:42:34,120
Speaker 2: I actually scored a touchdown on him on like the

836
00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:36,360
Speaker 2: eight yard line, but they put him, you know, in

837
00:42:36,440 --> 00:42:39,400
Speaker 2: coverage on me on the goal line, and I scored

838
00:42:39,440 --> 00:42:42,200
Speaker 2: on him. But guess what, that just shows how much

839
00:42:42,719 --> 00:42:45,440
Speaker 2: athleticism that he has that they were willing to put

840
00:42:45,480 --> 00:42:47,920
Speaker 2: him in that situation. It was kind of more of

841
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,520
Speaker 2: a trickery play. So it got me open a lot easier.

842
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,440
Speaker 2: And then also Leonard Williams, I mean, this guy is

843
00:42:53,480 --> 00:42:55,600
Speaker 2: still a beast. These are two veterans that are hungry

844
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:57,960
Speaker 2: for a Super Bowl. Leonard Williams was on the New

845
00:42:58,040 --> 00:43:00,000
Speaker 2: York Jets when I was on the New Land Patriots.

846
00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:03,000
Speaker 2: That's how long he's been playing for. And I put

847
00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:05,520
Speaker 2: my hand down. He's so athletic. He's a defensive tackle,

848
00:43:05,560 --> 00:43:07,320
Speaker 2: but he can go to the defensive end position.

849
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,560
Speaker 1: I put my hand down. I said, I mean I

850
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:11,279
Speaker 1: knew who he was.

851
00:43:11,360 --> 00:43:14,759
Speaker 2: I said, why the f is this mother effort in

852
00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:17,719
Speaker 2: front of me right now? He should be down, you know,

853
00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:19,919
Speaker 2: in the trenches more because I don't want a piece

854
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:21,560
Speaker 2: of him at all, because he dwarfs me.

855
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:23,360
Speaker 1: He makes me look tiny.

856
00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:27,319
Speaker 2: He's athletic, he's explosive, he's gigantic, he's strong, and he.

857
00:43:27,320 --> 00:43:28,320
Speaker 1: Can get to the quarterbacks.

858
00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:32,319
Speaker 2: So these two, you know, are the keys to the

859
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,440
Speaker 2: game for the Seattle Seahawks defense.

860
00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:36,960
Speaker 1: In my opinion, Okay, I like that.

861
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:38,520
Speaker 4: I like that.

862
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:42,400
Speaker 1: How about you, Jules, how about you? What you got?

863
00:43:43,480 --> 00:43:44,319
Speaker 1: The key.

864
00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:48,360
Speaker 4: For the Seahawks defense is to stop Pooka Nakua.

865
00:43:49,640 --> 00:43:49,960
Speaker 1: Okay.

866
00:43:52,160 --> 00:43:55,040
Speaker 3: It's always crazy to me when you have guys that

867
00:43:55,120 --> 00:43:57,320
Speaker 3: have like one hundred and thirty catches, one hundred and

868
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:01,160
Speaker 3: twenty catches, and somehow they're open on third down.

869
00:44:03,239 --> 00:44:05,400
Speaker 4: If I'm the defense, if.

870
00:44:05,239 --> 00:44:09,319
Speaker 3: It's any kind of passing situation, I'm instantly looking. We're

871
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,279
Speaker 3: is twelve. Okay, he's right there. Let me keep an

872
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,319
Speaker 3: eye on him. I'm gonna look at the quarterback, but

873
00:44:14,400 --> 00:44:17,359
Speaker 3: I'm gonna field twelve where all right, I'm gonna he's

874
00:44:17,360 --> 00:44:18,240
Speaker 3: throwing the worst.

875
00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:18,719
Speaker 4: All right.

876
00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:22,120
Speaker 3: You know what, we gotta stop Pooka if we're that defense,

877
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:29,600
Speaker 3: because however, they're gonna get him the ball in reverses, sweeps, screens,

878
00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 3: uh little boots where he comes under, get him running

879
00:44:35,239 --> 00:44:37,759
Speaker 3: the football, or when they throw a downfield to him,

880
00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:40,240
Speaker 3: or an intermediate pass where he can catch and run.

881
00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:42,160
Speaker 4: They gotta stop Pookah.

882
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:45,799
Speaker 3: He's got nineteen catches for three hundred yards and two

883
00:44:45,840 --> 00:44:49,239
Speaker 3: games against these guys. Let's stop Pooka Nakua. Maybe we'll

884
00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:52,200
Speaker 3: get three hundred yards less. I mean, that's one hundred

885
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:56,160
Speaker 3: and fifty a game. That's a lot. Stop Pooka. What's

886
00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,120
Speaker 3: that for the Seahawks.

887
00:44:57,920 --> 00:44:59,759
Speaker 2: Hold out of With that being a point, I was

888
00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:04,040
Speaker 2: eindboggled last week in overtime versus Chicago Bears. When it

889
00:45:04,080 --> 00:45:06,200
Speaker 2: was it was an overtime, it was on the final

890
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:09,240
Speaker 2: drive and I think it was third and like six.

891
00:45:09,480 --> 00:45:12,880
Speaker 2: It was something around there, and you could tell that

892
00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:13,879
Speaker 2: they were bringing the house.

893
00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:16,640
Speaker 1: They were blitzing, and there was such a huge gap.

894
00:45:16,800 --> 00:45:20,600
Speaker 2: Puka was a third receiver, and when there's blitzing, you

895
00:45:20,680 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 2: know that third receiver you know from the outside is

896
00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:26,040
Speaker 2: gonna be the hot guy, you know. And there was

897
00:45:26,120 --> 00:45:29,279
Speaker 2: so much room from the safety to Puka. I'm like,

898
00:45:29,760 --> 00:45:33,920
Speaker 2: hopefully one of those blitzers drops back, drops back and

899
00:45:33,960 --> 00:45:37,160
Speaker 2: covers that space. And they all blitz and it was

900
00:45:37,239 --> 00:45:39,719
Speaker 2: so easy to read. I read it five seconds before

901
00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:42,680
Speaker 2: the ball was snapped and Matthew Stafford. Puoka just ran

902
00:45:42,920 --> 00:45:46,719
Speaker 2: four yards, turned it around and Matthew Stafford just pitched

903
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 2: it to him and then he just flipped his hips

904
00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 2: and went to the outside and took it for like

905
00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,239
Speaker 2: thirteen yards. It was such an easy first down, and

906
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:57,520
Speaker 2: I was just sitting there dumbfounded, like, no, you don't

907
00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:00,279
Speaker 2: give that much space to Pooka and the cool Maybe

908
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:02,439
Speaker 2: if that was a slow tight end at the number

909
00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,280
Speaker 2: three position, that you can close that gap quick enough.

910
00:46:05,360 --> 00:46:07,760
Speaker 2: But if you're bringing that many, you know that many,

911
00:46:07,960 --> 00:46:10,480
Speaker 2: you know on the blitz, you got to move up

912
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:14,560
Speaker 2: as a defender and keep that space relatively closer instead

913
00:46:14,560 --> 00:46:17,200
Speaker 2: of leaving that much room for Stafford to pook A connection.

914
00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,000
Speaker 2: And that was one of the biggest plays in the

915
00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,160
Speaker 2: overtime game to keep the change going. Actually it was

916
00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,759
Speaker 2: thirty down. It was a massive play. But an X

917
00:46:23,840 --> 00:46:26,600
Speaker 2: factor for the Seahawks in this one. I'm gonna go

918
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:32,279
Speaker 2: with Rashid Shaheed. They're a special teams player, not just

919
00:46:32,320 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 2: a special teams player anymore. He's doing damage on the

920
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:37,799
Speaker 2: offensive side of the ball. But I say he's an

921
00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,680
Speaker 2: X factor because he's brought I think three touchdowns to

922
00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,480
Speaker 2: the house already since he was traded, you know, to

923
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:47,560
Speaker 2: the Seattle Seahawks from the New Orleans Saints. This guy,

924
00:46:48,320 --> 00:46:54,120
Speaker 2: this guy, this guy brings another one you know to

925
00:46:54,200 --> 00:46:56,759
Speaker 2: the house and special teams. That's gonna be the X

926
00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,760
Speaker 2: factor for this game and get Seattle over to Hump

927
00:47:00,120 --> 00:47:02,239
Speaker 2: versus the Rams and go to the super Bowl.

928
00:47:03,080 --> 00:47:05,920
Speaker 3: Shout out to John Snyder, the GM of the Seahawks,

929
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,840
Speaker 3: actually took me to lunch during the pre draft process

930
00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:12,759
Speaker 3: at Kent when he was with the Packers. I was

931
00:47:12,760 --> 00:47:15,840
Speaker 3: gonna sign with the Packers because of jos Snyder. I

932
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:18,840
Speaker 3: like going to sign with the Packers because of John Snyder.

933
00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:19,560
Speaker 4: He's done.

934
00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:20,040
Speaker 1: What did you.

935
00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:22,279
Speaker 4: Huh?

936
00:47:22,320 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 1: Hold on? What did what did you order? Jewels? At

937
00:47:24,200 --> 00:47:24,680
Speaker 1: that lunch?

938
00:47:25,080 --> 00:47:27,640
Speaker 3: I think we went to Clark Street, Delhi. I think

939
00:47:27,680 --> 00:47:31,040
Speaker 3: I got a sandwich or it was it was Clark's

940
00:47:31,200 --> 00:47:34,319
Speaker 3: maybe what kind of sandwich? Or it could have been

941
00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,479
Speaker 3: ice cream that one because I had a broken jaw,

942
00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:41,600
Speaker 3: had a broken jaw during my my pre draft stuff.

943
00:47:42,200 --> 00:47:43,680
Speaker 4: We'll get into that for another time.

944
00:47:44,120 --> 00:47:49,799
Speaker 3: My ex factor, Robert js N, he's gonna he's been

945
00:47:49,880 --> 00:47:52,600
Speaker 3: kind of quiet lately last couple of weeks. Been a

946
00:47:52,640 --> 00:47:56,160
Speaker 3: little quiet, not like quiet, but to his standard, has

947
00:47:56,200 --> 00:47:59,080
Speaker 3: been a little quiet compared to how he was balling

948
00:47:59,239 --> 00:47:59,799
Speaker 3: all year.

949
00:48:00,560 --> 00:48:02,319
Speaker 4: I think there's gonna be a big play for him

950
00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:03,239
Speaker 4: to make this.

951
00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:07,279
Speaker 3: I think the secondary for that lot that uh, I

952
00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:11,240
Speaker 3: think the secondary for the Rams is the weak spot

953
00:48:11,360 --> 00:48:14,879
Speaker 3: for that defense. So I think jsn with a couple

954
00:48:14,920 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 3: of big plays. He's you know, just three catches eighteen

955
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,800
Speaker 3: yards last week. I expect a big one X factor

956
00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:24,960
Speaker 3: type game out of JSNYE.

957
00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:26,960
Speaker 2: He's cooled off a little bit. He had less than

958
00:48:26,960 --> 00:48:30,560
Speaker 2: one hundred yards his last four games. Actually in just

959
00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,640
Speaker 2: eighteen yards last week, so imagine. But they didn't really

960
00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:35,919
Speaker 2: need him. They didn't really need they didn't really. It's

961
00:48:35,920 --> 00:48:39,640
Speaker 2: still exactly but he'll be this game exactly.

962
00:48:39,800 --> 00:48:40,319
Speaker 7: He's due.

963
00:48:40,440 --> 00:48:43,080
Speaker 1: He's due for a breakout game. I really like that one.

964
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:48,040
Speaker 2: And now let's championship predictions. Julian, who's gonna win this one?

965
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:50,919
Speaker 2: You want me to go first? Since you went first

966
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:52,239
Speaker 2: with the AFC Championship game.

967
00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:53,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll let you go first.

968
00:48:53,719 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: I'll go.

969
00:48:55,520 --> 00:48:57,359
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I played in the NFC, you know, so

970
00:48:57,680 --> 00:48:59,239
Speaker 2: I'll take the honors.

971
00:48:59,680 --> 00:49:03,279
Speaker 1: Actually didn't face Actually.

972
00:49:03,000 --> 00:49:06,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, I actually my very last game, I lost to

973
00:49:07,680 --> 00:49:11,839
Speaker 2: the Los Angeles rams uh in in the what what's

974
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:16,359
Speaker 2: the second round wild card division the divisional game versus

975
00:49:16,520 --> 00:49:18,440
Speaker 2: ramsh So it's.

976
00:49:18,320 --> 00:49:20,319
Speaker 4: Weird, you don't know, because we never first.

977
00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:23,319
Speaker 3: It was always usually our first round, Yeah, because we

978
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:27,239
Speaker 3: always had the buy in New Island. So that's hard

979
00:49:28,000 --> 00:49:32,600
Speaker 3: to compute being in the wild card weekend and he

980
00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 3: could you know what I mean, So it's hard.

981
00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,640
Speaker 1: For him, it is.

982
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:39,200
Speaker 2: I I agree, thank you Julian for saving me there.

983
00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:43,360
Speaker 2: But who's gonna win? I'm going with the Seattle Seahawks.

984
00:49:43,520 --> 00:49:47,240
Speaker 2: They're a team that, you know, I believe that makes

985
00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:51,759
Speaker 2: you know, has made less mistakes throughout the year, and

986
00:49:51,800 --> 00:49:56,000
Speaker 2: that factors in, you know, in into the playoffs, the

987
00:49:56,080 --> 00:49:58,879
Speaker 2: factors in if you're gonna win games, you know, deep down,

988
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:01,879
Speaker 2: you know, into your season and the game that they

989
00:50:01,960 --> 00:50:03,880
Speaker 2: just played last week, you could tell that they're a

990
00:50:03,920 --> 00:50:06,920
Speaker 2: complete football team. They got the feel, you know, the

991
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 2: chemistry is there. They know how to win games. They

992
00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:12,360
Speaker 2: know how to just you know, put their foot on

993
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,200
Speaker 2: the gas pedal and just keep it there, you know,

994
00:50:15,320 --> 00:50:20,920
Speaker 2: full throttle and the just I'm talking like the Rams,

995
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:24,879
Speaker 2: they just they just disappear at times, you know, And

996
00:50:25,000 --> 00:50:27,560
Speaker 2: with a consistent team like the Seahawks, I think that

997
00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:32,080
Speaker 2: eventually takes over a team that hasn't been as consistent.

998
00:50:32,160 --> 00:50:34,960
Speaker 2: So I'm going with the Seattle Seahawks, and I'm talking

999
00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:39,560
Speaker 2: Super Bowl forty nine rematch. Julian, the Seahawks versus the

1000
00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:40,600
Speaker 2: forty nine ers.

1001
00:50:40,680 --> 00:50:41,160
Speaker 1: Let's go.

1002
00:50:42,640 --> 00:50:47,359
Speaker 3: I'm going with the Seahawks too, Copyer. I really do

1003
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:53,200
Speaker 3: think they've been playing better football the last few games.

1004
00:50:53,719 --> 00:50:56,200
Speaker 3: I do think the special teams is going to catch

1005
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:01,640
Speaker 3: up to the Rams somehow. It just those dark voices

1006
00:51:01,680 --> 00:51:05,240
Speaker 3: that you have in your mind during the regular season,

1007
00:51:05,920 --> 00:51:10,760
Speaker 3: those dark voices, they're magnified in the playoffs. They always

1008
00:51:10,800 --> 00:51:13,520
Speaker 3: come out in the in the playoffs, like the ship

1009
00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:17,040
Speaker 3: doesn't just go away, you know what I mean. And

1010
00:51:17,080 --> 00:51:21,080
Speaker 3: I think the dark voices come out in the playoffs,

1011
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:26,799
Speaker 3: you know. So I really think somehow something's gonna catch

1012
00:51:26,880 --> 00:51:29,279
Speaker 3: up to them. The Seahawks are really good in all

1013
00:51:29,320 --> 00:51:30,479
Speaker 3: three phases of the game.

1014
00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:31,600
Speaker 4: If if you were.

1015
00:51:31,520 --> 00:51:34,200
Speaker 3: To like go to the Football Dictionary and talk about

1016
00:51:34,239 --> 00:51:38,080
Speaker 3: a complimentary football team, it'd be that little Seahawks logo

1017
00:51:38,560 --> 00:51:41,520
Speaker 3: of this this team, because they really do play to

1018
00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 3: each other. Look, Sam Darno wasn't one hundred percent last week. Hey,

1019
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:48,040
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna force the game. I'm not gonna make mistakes.

1020
00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 3: I'm not gonna go out there and try to be

1021
00:51:49,560 --> 00:51:52,040
Speaker 3: a ward addy. I'm gonna play to my defense, not

1022
00:51:52,120 --> 00:51:55,279
Speaker 3: make any mistakes, and find a way to win the

1023
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:58,040
Speaker 3: game and blow the team out. Like I think they're

1024
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,839
Speaker 3: just got a good mojo going right now. I think

1025
00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:04,720
Speaker 3: the score for me, I think it's gonna be thirty

1026
00:52:04,960 --> 00:52:06,280
Speaker 3: three thirty.

1027
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:08,440
Speaker 1: I like it.

1028
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 2: I like that prediction, high scoring game the fans. I

1029
00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:14,680
Speaker 2: love these high scoring games as well. It just you know,

1030
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:17,640
Speaker 2: keeps you, you know, on your team. They keeps really

1031
00:52:17,680 --> 00:52:20,560
Speaker 2: good defensive in the game. They do, but they're they're

1032
00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:24,200
Speaker 2: just you're just the motion of the game. You know

1033
00:52:24,719 --> 00:52:27,600
Speaker 2: that that's in the ogi, the motion of the ocean.

1034
00:52:27,640 --> 00:52:29,880
Speaker 2: It's it's gonna be that type of game, just because

1035
00:52:29,880 --> 00:52:32,000
Speaker 2: we need a game like that. That's just been the

1036
00:52:32,040 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 2: way the NFL has been all year, just great games.

1037
00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:38,200
Speaker 2: High not super high scoring, but you know, high twenties.

1038
00:52:38,239 --> 00:52:39,840
Speaker 2: I people one mid thirties.

1039
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:43,000
Speaker 1: Hey, I love it. I'm gonna go with the Seahawks.

1040
00:52:43,000 --> 00:52:46,680
Speaker 2: They're gonna win twenty eight to twenty four.

1041
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:51,239
Speaker 3: We're in for a great weekend of football. Should we

Speaker 4: He wears number zero.

1046
00:53:03,080 --> 00:53:06,879
Speaker 3: He's a leader of this Patriots defense that no one

1047

1064
00:54:03,160 --> 00:54:06,160

00:55:09,440 --> 00:55:13,040
Speaker 5: talking about that identity and no matter where we're at,

1088
00:55:13,120 --> 00:55:15,080
Speaker 5: no matter what time of the day it is, whether

1089
00:55:16,200 --> 00:55:19,160
Speaker 5: anything is, we got to pack our identity and bring it.

1090
00:55:19,320 --> 00:55:19,839
Speaker 7: And show it.

1091
00:55:19,960 --> 00:55:23,400
Speaker 5: And it's kind of something he taught us, told us

1092
00:55:23,400 --> 00:55:27,399
Speaker 5: about when he got here and and OTAs and we've

1093
00:55:27,400 --> 00:55:28,720
Speaker 5: just been running with it ever since.

1094
00:55:29,400 --> 00:55:32,520
Speaker 3: Speaking of coach Rabel, Coach Rabel was known to be

1095
00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:37,080
Speaker 3: chippy in practice, making the practice environment so tough.

1096
00:55:38,400 --> 00:55:40,400
Speaker 4: We were chippy when we played there.

1097
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:43,319
Speaker 3: Can you tell us and walk us through the preparation

1098
00:55:43,640 --> 00:55:46,359
Speaker 3: process that you guys go through at practice and does

1099
00:55:46,400 --> 00:55:48,440
Speaker 3: it get chippy out there? How how hard are you

1100
00:55:48,480 --> 00:55:49,240
Speaker 3: guys competing?

1101
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,640
Speaker 7: Oh? For sure, it definitely get gets hippy out there.

1102
00:55:53,680 --> 00:55:54,120
Speaker 1: I mean.

1103
00:55:55,960 --> 00:56:00,160
Speaker 5: Even back to OTAs and training camp, especially having and

1104
00:56:00,200 --> 00:56:03,520
Speaker 5: steph over and and a guy that likes to you know,

1105
00:56:03,600 --> 00:56:05,600
Speaker 5: talk a lot of smack and do things like that.

1106
00:56:05,800 --> 00:56:08,239
Speaker 5: So that was that was a lot of fun going

1107
00:56:08,280 --> 00:56:12,000
Speaker 5: back to to those days, to training camp days. But

1108
00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:15,080
Speaker 5: I mean he keeps it up even in the season.

1109
00:56:15,200 --> 00:56:19,520
Speaker 5: I mean he's him pop Kyle Kashawn All on the sideline.

1110
00:56:19,800 --> 00:56:22,919
Speaker 5: Uh when when it's defensive time and you know they're

1111
00:56:22,960 --> 00:56:26,680
Speaker 5: over there talking smack to us. If if one of

1112
00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,719
Speaker 5: the practice squad receiver was catching catch a ball, they

1113
00:56:30,000 --> 00:56:34,239
Speaker 5: they honestly right away. You know, it gets it gets

1114
00:56:34,280 --> 00:56:37,160
Speaker 5: everybody's timbers going and just makes that competition.

1115
00:56:37,320 --> 00:56:40,239
Speaker 7: So it's been helping a lot. It's been a lot

1116
00:56:40,239 --> 00:56:40,520
Speaker 7: of fun.

1117
00:56:40,560 --> 00:56:40,719
Speaker 1: Though.

1118
00:56:41,880 --> 00:56:44,120
Speaker 2: Hey, Christian, I saw you on the sideline before the

1119
00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,080
Speaker 2: Houston game talking to ty Law.

1120
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,400
Speaker 1: I'm just wondering what did he say to you?

1121
00:56:48,480 --> 00:56:51,319
Speaker 2: Because ty Law is a great, you know, a patriot, great,

1122
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,919
Speaker 2: he's in the Hall of Fame, one of the greatest cornerbacks.

1123
00:56:54,280 --> 00:56:55,279
Speaker 1: Uh, you talked to him.

1124
00:56:55,480 --> 00:56:57,799
Speaker 2: He had three interceptions, you know, in one of his

1125
00:56:57,840 --> 00:57:00,600
Speaker 2: playoff games, one of the most historic moments of all time.

1126
00:57:00,920 --> 00:57:03,000
Speaker 2: Did he give you any tips? And also did he

1127
00:57:03,120 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 2: smell like his vodka Corvas when he was talking to

1128
00:57:06,320 --> 00:57:08,600
Speaker 2: as well on the sidelines before the game?

1129
00:57:08,800 --> 00:57:12,560
Speaker 4: Corvas right, Corvas shouts.

1130
00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:15,919
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I mean he probably had a little before

1131
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,920
Speaker 5: the game. He was probably having a good little day.

1132
00:57:18,960 --> 00:57:22,280
Speaker 7: But no, I mean he was just talking to me just,

1133
00:57:22,400 --> 00:57:23,640
Speaker 7: you know, go out there and be myself.

1134
00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:25,880
Speaker 5: Go, you know, make the plays that come my way,

1135
00:57:25,920 --> 00:57:29,360
Speaker 5: and and you know, don't be afraid to you know,

1136
00:57:29,480 --> 00:57:31,560
Speaker 5: just step up and make plays for this team and

1137
00:57:32,680 --> 00:57:34,280
Speaker 5: just go out there and have fun and play with

1138
00:57:34,320 --> 00:57:37,360
Speaker 5: That's why, Gonzo.

1139
00:57:37,440 --> 00:57:42,040
Speaker 3: Can you talk to us about Terrell Williams, your defensive coordinator,

1140
00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,800
Speaker 3: and what he means to not only the defense, but

1141
00:57:44,960 --> 00:57:48,520
Speaker 3: the team and the job. Zach Kerr or Zach Korr

1142
00:57:48,960 --> 00:57:50,000
Speaker 3: has done filling.

1143
00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:51,600
Speaker 1: In for him.

1144
00:57:51,840 --> 00:57:52,320
Speaker 7: Yeah, big t.

1145
00:57:52,520 --> 00:57:55,880
Speaker 5: I mean it means a lot of his team, you know,

1146
00:57:56,120 --> 00:57:59,360
Speaker 5: him coming in and having the battle, but he's battled,

1147
00:57:59,360 --> 00:58:04,360
Speaker 5: and you know, I think it's something that that we

1148
00:58:04,440 --> 00:58:06,760
Speaker 5: all took, you know, took kind of hard and have

1149
00:58:06,840 --> 00:58:08,920
Speaker 5: been able to kind of just go out there and

1150
00:58:08,920 --> 00:58:12,080
Speaker 5: play for him, especially as a defense, you know, going

1151
00:58:12,120 --> 00:58:14,240
Speaker 5: out there and just making plays for him and know

1152
00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:16,320
Speaker 5: that he's you know, he comes in the building and

1153
00:58:16,600 --> 00:58:19,160
Speaker 5: we get to see see him and see his smile

1154
00:58:19,280 --> 00:58:21,320
Speaker 5: and you know, know he's in good spirits and and

1155
00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:22,920
Speaker 5: doing well and and fighting.

1156
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:25,640
Speaker 7: So that just helps us go out there.

1157
00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,440
Speaker 5: And and Zach has done a good job, a great

1158
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:32,000
Speaker 5: job stepping up just making them play calls and calling

1159
00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:34,640
Speaker 5: the defense and calling it how we like to play.

1160
00:58:34,680 --> 00:58:38,560
Speaker 5: So it's been it's been real cool to see him

1161
00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:41,680
Speaker 5: step up and and take that role and run with it.

1162
00:58:42,480 --> 00:58:44,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's definitely been doing a great job.

1163
00:58:44,360 --> 00:58:46,040
Speaker 2: It's good to see your step up like that and

1164
00:58:46,240 --> 00:58:48,640
Speaker 2: and just fill the void and and just you know,

1165
00:58:48,800 --> 00:58:51,440
Speaker 2: understand you guys, you know, as a defense and just

1166
00:58:51,480 --> 00:58:54,400
Speaker 2: figure it out on the spot. So it's going great,

1167
00:58:54,440 --> 00:58:56,360
Speaker 2: and we love to see it, and I want to

1168
00:58:56,640 --> 00:58:59,200
Speaker 2: talk a little bit about your pregame ritual. You know,

1191
01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:27,240
Speaker 3: We'll be right back after this quick break. How come

1192
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:32,640
Speaker 3: everyone talks about all the AFC defenses, Houston's defense, the

1193
01:00:32,680 --> 01:00:37,000
Speaker 3: Broncos defense. Everyone talks about Seattle's defense and no one

1194
01:00:37,040 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 3: talks about your guys defense.

1195
01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:44,240
Speaker 7: I don't know. We we did the same way.

1196
01:00:44,240 --> 01:00:49,320
Speaker 5: I mean, especially this past week, no kind of going

1197
01:00:49,400 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 5: up against the Texans, everybody all we all we heard

1198
01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:57,800
Speaker 5: was Texans, Texans, Texans. So I mean as a defense,

1199
01:00:57,840 --> 01:00:59,600
Speaker 5: we kind of just took that as a challenge is Okay,

1200
01:00:59,640 --> 01:01:03,360
Speaker 5: we're going you can count us out, and you kind of.

1201
01:01:03,400 --> 01:01:05,920
Speaker 5: I mean I feel like as a defense that we

1202
01:01:06,200 --> 01:01:09,040
Speaker 5: hope everybody counts us out. I feel like that kids

1203
01:01:09,160 --> 01:01:11,640
Speaker 5: is even more of a chip on our shoulder to

1204
01:01:11,640 --> 01:01:16,040
Speaker 5: go out there and play even even harder. But I

1205
01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:18,000
Speaker 5: mean if if people start to talk about it's cool,

1206
01:01:18,160 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 5: if they don't cool, I mean, either way is we're

1207
01:01:20,440 --> 01:01:22,040
Speaker 5: gonna go out there and do what we gotta do.

1208
01:01:24,000 --> 01:01:26,320
Speaker 2: The way that you guys just played together out there,

1209
01:01:26,440 --> 01:01:30,800
Speaker 2: I mean the chemistry you know is built. You know,

1210
01:01:30,920 --> 01:01:33,600
Speaker 2: you guys have it and in order to have it,

1211
01:01:34,200 --> 01:01:37,959
Speaker 2: you know, you got to like each other. Like how

1212
01:01:38,000 --> 01:01:41,520
Speaker 2: has that identity and how has that chemistry been you

1213
01:01:41,560 --> 01:01:44,560
Speaker 2: know overall just built throughout the year, Like is there

1214
01:01:44,640 --> 01:01:48,120
Speaker 2: off the field, you know, team bonding. Do you guys

1215
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:50,320
Speaker 2: have games in the locker room where you bond together.

1216
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:53,080
Speaker 2: For example, back in the day, Julian and I there

1217
01:01:53,120 --> 01:01:56,040
Speaker 2: is trash trashketball in the locker room and we would

1218
01:01:56,080 --> 01:01:58,600
Speaker 2: bond that way. What's the way that you guys bond

1219
01:01:58,600 --> 01:02:01,200
Speaker 2: to become so likable with each other and build that

1220
01:02:01,320 --> 01:02:02,800
Speaker 2: chemistry throughout the whole year.

1221
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:06,479
Speaker 7: I think it. I think it started really just in

1222
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:09,120
Speaker 7: in OTAs.

1223
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:09,840
Speaker 1: Bray Will.

1224
01:02:10,000 --> 01:02:11,800
Speaker 5: Another thing brad Will did was just having the team

1225
01:02:11,840 --> 01:02:14,520
Speaker 5: go up and talk about our four ages what we

1226
01:02:14,600 --> 01:02:20,080
Speaker 5: called it, you know, share you know, history, heartbreak, heroes,

1227
01:02:20,120 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 5: and hopes, and you know, everybody's just got up there

1228
01:02:24,520 --> 01:02:28,080
Speaker 5: and I mean it was kind of a first sounded

1229
01:02:28,120 --> 01:02:32,120
Speaker 5: like okay, like what are we doing? But everybody you know,

1230
01:02:32,360 --> 01:02:35,600
Speaker 5: really bought into it and was able to, you know,

1231
01:02:35,680 --> 01:02:38,960
Speaker 5: speak about why they do what they do and what

1232
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:42,439
Speaker 5: makes them you know, their their self and being able

1233
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:46,400
Speaker 5: to learn that. I feel like it it helps because

1234
01:02:46,440 --> 01:02:48,720
Speaker 5: you're just able to go out there and play harder

1235
01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:51,840
Speaker 5: for for your brother next to you once because you

1236
01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:53,680
Speaker 5: know what he's been through and he knows what you've

1237
01:02:53,720 --> 01:02:58,280
Speaker 5: been through. So like that's where it started. And then

1238
01:02:58,320 --> 01:03:00,240
Speaker 5: as far as hanging out, I mean, the deep these

1239
01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:03,960
Speaker 5: were always together. If you see one of us is

1240
01:03:04,520 --> 01:03:06,560
Speaker 5: it's gonna be all of us. So we're always in

1241

Speaker 1: Man?

1441
01:12:17,920 --> 01:12:21,360
Speaker 2: I love Christian Gonzalez, not just as a player, you know,

1442
01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,400
Speaker 2: on the field, but just a guy off the field.

1443
01:12:23,439 --> 01:12:26,719
Speaker 2: What he represents, what he stands for, just how humble

1444
01:12:26,840 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 2: he is and how he just gets his work done

1445
01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:31,519
Speaker 2: and then he just goes about it like it's just

1446
01:12:31,600 --> 01:12:35,240
Speaker 2: another day. I mean, Christian Gonzalez, you know, represents you know,

1447
01:12:35,280 --> 01:12:39,800
Speaker 2: the New England Patriots like better than anyone else out there.

1448
01:12:40,520 --> 01:12:44,360
Speaker 2: He's a top dog, top character, just level the way

1449
01:12:44,400 --> 01:12:46,800
Speaker 2: he goes about everything, man, and I appreciate him.

1450
01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:48,520
Speaker 1: You know, coming on today.

1451
01:12:48,720 --> 01:12:52,280
Speaker 3: Before we rap, before we rap, we got to give

1452
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:57,040
Speaker 3: a shout out to the Indiana Hoosiers for defeating the

1453
01:12:57,080 --> 01:13:02,320
Speaker 3: Miami Hurricanes in the National Championship last night, first snatty

1454
01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:06,040
Speaker 3: in school history. I think it was like the losiness

1455
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:10,800
Speaker 3: football program in the history of college football. This was

1456
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:15,600
Speaker 3: probably single handedly one of the most impressive turnarounds for

1457
01:13:15,720 --> 01:13:18,400
Speaker 3: me personally, that I've ever seen in any kind of sport.

1458
01:13:18,760 --> 01:13:23,519
Speaker 3: This was very reminiscence of when Leicester City went and

1459
01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:30,160
Speaker 3: won the EPL League, whatever they did when they were

1460
01:13:30,200 --> 01:13:32,760
Speaker 3: they weren't supposed to be there like that. This was

1461
01:13:32,840 --> 01:13:37,800
Speaker 3: crazy to think that Indiana beat up on like in

1462
01:13:37,880 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 3: whooped everyone in their playoffs, Oregon, Alabama. I mean, they

1463
01:13:43,880 --> 01:13:48,519
Speaker 3: just seemed like such a structurally freaking well oiled machine,

1464
01:13:49,160 --> 01:13:53,280
Speaker 3: never making mistakes. Everyone always played on the same turn

1465
01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:56,400
Speaker 3: It just seems they seemed very patriot teamy.

1466
01:13:56,880 --> 01:14:00,080
Speaker 4: Did they see the kind of patrioty.

1467
01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:00,519
Speaker 1: Yes, they really did.

1468
01:14:00,600 --> 01:14:03,759
Speaker 2: I mean it's called win it, you know, with guys

1469
01:14:03,880 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 2: that you know weren't accepted to other programs and take

1470
01:14:08,000 --> 01:14:10,479
Speaker 2: them on and build them up and build them up

1471
01:14:10,520 --> 01:14:11,959
Speaker 2: strong mentally and physically.

1472
01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:13,200
Speaker 1: I mean, this may be.

1473
01:14:12,960 --> 01:14:16,280
Speaker 2: The best season in college football history. It's definitely one

1474
01:14:16,280 --> 01:14:20,360
Speaker 2: of them that's up there. I mean Indiana was sixteen

1475
01:14:20,439 --> 01:14:22,960
Speaker 2: and oh this year, I mean Big Ten champions college

1476
01:14:23,000 --> 01:14:26,200
Speaker 2: Football National champions number one in all the coaching polls,

1477
01:14:26,240 --> 01:14:29,360
Speaker 2: ap Pole College Football polls, all the polls that college

1478
01:14:29,400 --> 01:14:32,599
Speaker 2: football has, I mean, Rose Bowl Champions, Peach Bowl Champions.

1479
01:14:32,640 --> 01:14:35,720
Speaker 2: They didn't just beat any teams, you know, in the

1480
01:14:35,760 --> 01:14:40,760
Speaker 2: playoffs either. They beat storied franchises, story college football programs.

1481
01:14:40,800 --> 01:14:48,040
Speaker 2: I mean Alabama, organ University of Miami in Miami for

1482
01:14:48,120 --> 01:14:52,200
Speaker 2: the college national championship, all miss as well. I mean,

1483
01:14:52,280 --> 01:14:55,519
Speaker 2: this was a ridiculous run Ohio State. This was a

1484
01:14:55,640 --> 01:15:01,040
Speaker 2: ridiculous run by Indiana. I mean the way that head

1485
01:15:01,120 --> 01:15:05,559
Speaker 2: coach Signetti turned this program around is kind of very

1486
01:15:05,600 --> 01:15:08,160
Speaker 2: similar to the to the Patriots. I mean, I feel

1487
01:15:08,200 --> 01:15:11,960
Speaker 2: like coach Belichick and Signetti have very similar coaching styles.

1488
01:15:12,040 --> 01:15:15,639
Speaker 2: Yes they're different, but very similar styles. You know, go wild,

1489
01:15:15,720 --> 01:15:20,360
Speaker 2: there is never excited. Both just tell how it is

1490
01:15:20,400 --> 01:15:24,160
Speaker 2: as well face yes. And also both go out there

1491
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:27,320
Speaker 2: and build your team up so they're so mentally tough

1492
01:15:27,560 --> 01:15:30,439
Speaker 2: that you just wear down your opponent. And that's what

1493
01:15:30,439 --> 01:15:33,719
Speaker 2: the Indiana Hoosiers were. I mean, they weren't the most

1494
01:15:33,760 --> 01:15:35,280
Speaker 2: athletic team, they weren't their most.

1495
01:15:35,280 --> 01:15:36,960
Speaker 3: Ud I don't know, they had some really good football

1496
01:15:36,960 --> 01:15:41,320
Speaker 3: players too. Everyone saying that they had old.

1497
01:15:41,680 --> 01:15:44,320
Speaker 1: Because of that reason. That's true as well.

1498
01:15:44,479 --> 01:15:46,640
Speaker 2: That's true they had older football players that knew how

1499
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:49,000
Speaker 2: to play together. They built that chemistry up.

1500
01:15:49,240 --> 01:15:49,800
Speaker 4: No, they didn't.

1501
01:15:50,400 --> 01:15:54,120
Speaker 3: They took some Kent State guys, those motherfuckers stealing our guys.

1502
01:15:55,240 --> 01:15:57,200
Speaker 4: Well, thank god they got a Natty. Thank god they

01:15:59,800 --> 01:16:03,640
Speaker 3: nat Fernando Mendoza Is he the next Raiders quarterback? Is

1517
01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:42,080
Speaker 3: tennis player at the U. They're both like Cuban refugee.

1518

1520
01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,240
Speaker 3: he loves the guys on the team. And I always

1521
01:16:51,280 --> 01:16:55,360
Speaker 3: talk about your quarterback has to have a little dorkiness

1522
01:16:55,400 --> 01:16:59,680
Speaker 3: to him. Okay, before Tom Brady was Tom Brady. He

1523
01:16:59,720 --> 01:17:02,760
Speaker 3: had a dorkiness. We've seen the draft picture. We've seen

1524
01:17:02,840 --> 01:17:06,760
Speaker 3: the draft picture, you know, and he's got that dorkiness

1525
01:17:07,360 --> 01:17:10,160

1526
01:17:10,200 --> 01:17:12,120
Speaker 3: a great pro. I think he's gonna be a good pro.

1527
01:17:13,120 --> 01:17:16,879
Speaker 3: Mark Cuban sells the team by he sells the Mavericks

1528
01:17:16,920 --> 01:17:19,439
