A lot of the guys you mentioned were 89 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,440 Speaker 1: on offense for guys, and I wonder if the reason 90 00:03:12,480 --> 00:03:14,519 Speaker 1: you mentioned that is because you played the Giants this year, 91 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: so you went against a lot of on this offense. 92 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: So how much did that impact seeing even though maybe 93 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:22,079 Speaker 1: the record wasn't what you wanted it to be last year, right, 94 00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: you see some of the talent that you had to 95 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,480 Speaker 1: prepare for in that game last year when you played 96 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:25,919 Speaker 1: against the Gym. 97 00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:26,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, Noah, for sure. 98 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 3: You know when we played against him, I know, you 99 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: know Scatterble didn't play. He was he was injured. You know, 100 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 3: Dark got hurt a little bit in that game, so 101 00:03:35,160 --> 00:03:37,760 Speaker 3: he ended up coming out a little bit earlier. But 102 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:39,960 Speaker 3: even just that is watching them on tape, I mean 103 00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 3: you could just see it was athletes. It was play 104 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,880 Speaker 3: makers all across the board. Obviously, also Elite didn't play either, 105 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, so they was missing him. 106 00:03:47,600 --> 00:03:49,880 Speaker 3: But you know, a healthy roster and it's a healthy team. 107 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it's athletes across the board. And I did 108 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 3: mention a lot of guys off because I'm a defensive guy, 109 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 3: so I spend more of my time obviously watching offense. 110 00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 2: Yeah for sure. 111 00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 3: But let alone on like, the defense has has guys, 112 00:04:02,600 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 3: you know what I mean.
