When you were talking about AJ 206 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 4: Barner in the personality, I also thought about the podcast 207 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 4: appearance that he had and his touchdown catch was actually 208 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:42,040 Speaker 4: a mistake. 209 00:08:42,120 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, Cooper Cup broke that down. 210 00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 4: I thought that was funny, and I really thought Aja's 211 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 4: explanation was pretty funny. 212 00:08:49,280 --> 00:08:50,839 Speaker 2: YadA YadA, YadA YadA. 213 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,000 Speaker 4: Scissors and you're just like, he goes, I know what 214 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:54,680 Speaker 4: I need to do, And I just thought that was 215 00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:55,600 Speaker 4: really funny. 216 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 3: Also, Seinfeld reference, I don't know. 217 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 4: If he knows that that's what that reference was, but 218 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 4: you YadA yadaa over just. 219 00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: One of the millions of examples of the season of 220 00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,680 Speaker 1: Cooper Cups. Like value that goes beyond just what we 221 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:10,120 Speaker 1: stay on the stat sheet. I mean, dasheet was pretty good. 222 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: He led the team in receiving two or three games 223 00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:15,920 Speaker 1: as postseason, But like, that's that's potential for a totally 224 00:09:15,960 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 1: busted play if the receivers are, you know, running wrong 225 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:20,960 Speaker 1: routes in the wrong position. He recognized it in the 226 00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: moment and he made it right. 227 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 4: I do like the recognition too, of that doesn't happen 228 00:09:26,640 --> 00:09:29,960 Speaker 4: if you don't spend all that time in meeting rooms 229 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 4: with quarterbacks. It doesn't happen if you don't spend all 230 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 4: that time studying or making sure that you were so 231 00:09:36,200 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 4: into it and is Eric Saubert said, you know, he's 232 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 4: just it's really intricate. His level of preparation and the questions, 233 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:46,959 Speaker 4: the inquisitive questions are very intricate, Yeah, from Cup, and 234 00:09:47,000 --> 00:09:49,880 Speaker 4: it makes everybody else around him think about what they're 235 00:09:49,920 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 4: going to do on these plays. 236 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,840 Speaker 3: So while that was almost. 237 00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,559 Speaker 4: A mistake and maybe a lucky happenstance, I think it's 238 00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,680 Speaker 4: also just, hey, that's the level of communication and awareness 239 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 4: these have had all here. The video of ken Walker 240 00:10:04,520 --> 00:10:07,679 Speaker 4: and Sam Donald in the teacups is one of the 241 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:12,800 Speaker 4: best videos ever and his performance absolutely incredible. 242 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, and they really needed it on day, Like both 243 00:10:15,160 --> 00:10:18,960 Speaker 1: defenses were playing really well. Sam Darnold, he said after himself, 244 00:10:18,960 --> 00:10:20,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't his best game. He he did some things 245 00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 1: really well. Most importantly, he avoided, like there's a really 246 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,560 Speaker 1: good pass rush. They got pressure on him, and there's 247 00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:29,640 Speaker 1: an opportunity for a lot of sacks, which obviously can 248 00:10:29,679 --> 00:10:32,040 Speaker 1: put the ball in danger, and he avoided most of those. 249 00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,040 Speaker 1: He didn't turn the ball over. So I'm not saying 250 00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:35,480 Speaker 1: he had a bad game, but there are a few 251 00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:37,840 Speaker 1: throws yep, not quite right. You know, that could have 252 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 1: been a real blowout if he hits a couple of throws. 253 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,199 Speaker 1: So all that being said, you needed the run game 254 00:10:42,240 --> 00:10:44,840 Speaker 1: and ken Walker was phenomenal. He was. You know, there's 255 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:46,560 Speaker 1: some good blocks he turned to huge runs and there 256 00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:48,520 Speaker 1: are some plays that he kind of made things happen 257 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,000 Speaker 1: by on his own, which he's done all year. Really 258 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,319 Speaker 1: cool for him, Like he's such a just like mild mannered, 259 00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: chill guy and to see him like have this moment 260 00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 1: is finally like the as that the press conmerce next morning. 261 00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:02,440 Speaker 1: You know, like most guys, he guy hasn't really slapped 262 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 1: and he's you know, trying to try and enjoy the moment, 263 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 1: but you can also tell like that is not his scene. 264 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: And we asked him about like. 265 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 1: Going to Disneyland, and you know, it's like, you know, 266 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:12,480 Speaker 1: Cause's like, I kind of won't go in the rides, 267 00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: like you know, you gotta do a parade too. He's like, 268 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:16,960 Speaker 1: I don't have to talk, but he was. He was 269 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 1: glad Sam was there. He did tell me that like 270 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,880 Speaker 1: it helped the whole process a lot. You're having his 271 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:21,719 Speaker 1: quarterback with him. 272 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, I do kind of laugh out of anybody. And 273 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:27,080 Speaker 4: I love Ken and we've had some awesome conversations. Being 274 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 4: at a podium is not his favorite place to be, 275 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 4: so he's gonna have a lot of conversations this year. 276 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 4: I think that he was not anticipating ahead of that 277 00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 4: game on Sunday. 278 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 3: The shout out I want to have it, John. 279 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 4: I did not get a chance to look at how 280 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:43,120 Speaker 4: you vote for game and VP, Like I just I 281 00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:47,480 Speaker 4: don't get a chance. It's chaotic on the sidelines. There 282 00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 4: is a case to be made for both Jason Myers 283 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:52,320 Speaker 4: and Michael Dixon. Now, I am not taking anything away 284 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 4: from Ken Walker. He was the deserving recipient of that one. 285 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 4: Here's the thing I want to point out. And I 286 00:11:58,800 --> 00:12:01,679 Speaker 4: talked to Michael Dixon about this. I can't remember if 287 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:05,680 Speaker 4: it was Monday or Tuesday. I don't know what the 288 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:10,640 Speaker 4: actual TV copy broadcast talked about. The wind on the 289 00:12:10,679 --> 00:12:15,520 Speaker 4: field was ridiculous, and Michael Dixon had said, yeah, I mean, pregame, 290 00:12:15,559 --> 00:12:18,360 Speaker 4: it's awesome. You go from having this perfect game, I 291 00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:21,120 Speaker 4: mean a perfect day, right, everything's perfect. 292 00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:24,200 Speaker 3: The minute kickoff comes, the wind is going crazy. 293 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 4: So everything that they had kind of strategize and practice, well, 294 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:29,320 Speaker 4: now you're changing on the fly, and none of it 295 00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:33,920 Speaker 4: seemed to matter. Yeah, Michael Dixon landed the perfect punts 296 00:12:34,400 --> 00:12:37,679 Speaker 4: and Jason Myers was perfect. And I just want people 297 00:12:37,720 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 4: to know that that degree of difficulty, Yeah, we take 298 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,800 Speaker 4: for granted that special teams is really good. 299 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:44,200 Speaker 3: That degree of difficulty. 300 00:12:43,760 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 4: In those conditions, which I don't know if everybody could see, 301 00:12:47,280 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 4: even more impressing. 302 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:49,959 Speaker 1: And I didn't realize this until like the leading of 303 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 1: a Super Bowl that statistically is one of the hardest 304 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: places to kick and because that win, you mentioned, like 305 00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:56,200 Speaker 1: the seald goal percentage pretty low in that building. 306 00:12:56,280 --> 00:12:57,080 Speaker 3: It is the lowest. 307 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,640 Speaker 1: We saw Jason Myers miss some kicks last time they 308 00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:02,720 Speaker 1: played there didn't end up mattering. But yeah, so like 309 00:13:02,840 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 1: five for five, I know they weren't you know, I 310 00:13:04,559 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: think if two of those have been like fifty plus, 311 00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:08,199 Speaker 1: he might have very well been MVP. But the offense 312 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: was moving the ball, so he was kicking shorter kicks. 313 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:14,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, five for five, super Bowl record five field 314 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:17,840 Speaker 1: goals by the way, and then Michael Dixon was just phenomenal. 315 00:13:17,880 --> 00:13:20,640 Speaker 1: Three punts from the or inside the six yard line. 316 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: It was and shout out to Velis Jones on the one, 317 00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 1: it was like the most casual. Yes, it was like 318 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,600 Speaker 1: it might have gone out anybody, just kind of it. 319 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 2: I really enjoyed that. That was great. 320 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,880 Speaker 1: It was just smoothly played. But yeah, the coverage teams 321 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 1: were great. The Patriots have a great punt returner. They 322 00:13:36,440 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 1: really got nothing in the return game. So yeah, this 323 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: team's been you know, there's a lot about that game. 324 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: It's heelt really like fitting for this team to win 325 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,880 Speaker 1: that way of like you kick butt on special teams, 326 00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:47,920 Speaker 1: you've been grand special teams all year, not as your 327 00:13:47,920 --> 00:13:50,480 Speaker 1: defense play awesome. But when you start to say also 328 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:52,520 Speaker 1: people could have been the MVP, I was thought, we're 329 00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:54,960 Speaker 1: going to talk about the defense, like there's a handful 330 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 1: guys on defense, where that kind of forth like someone 331 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 1: on defense should win MVP. And that's why it's teams 332 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 1: been all year. There's not the one superstar. There's not 333 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,680 Speaker 1: an edge rusher with fifteen sacks. There's not a guy. 334 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,559 Speaker 1: I mean, you do have five interceptions from Ernest Jones, 335 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 1: but otherwise not a lot of statistical dominance, but just 336 00:14:12,080 --> 00:14:13,080 Speaker 1: so good across the board. 337 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:15,800 Speaker 4: Well, and that I would say, that's kind of where 338 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:18,080 Speaker 4: the strength of this defense is. 339 00:14:18,480 --> 00:14:18,680 Speaker 3: Right. 340 00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:20,680 Speaker 4: You can't pick out the one superstar. I could have 341 00:14:20,720 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 4: easily found three guys on defense to give it to. 342 00:14:23,200 --> 00:14:25,320 Speaker 4: But how do you decide that Derek Hall was more 343 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:27,200 Speaker 4: important than Julian Love and that one that was more 344 00:14:27,200 --> 00:14:30,920 Speaker 4: important than Uchenna? Like it is truly the dark side defense, 345 00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:33,360 Speaker 4: and they haven't cared about who gets credit all your own. 346 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: I do wonder if a statistical change Costspoon the MVP, 347 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:39,040 Speaker 1: because if you make that a sack fumble, then he 348 00:14:39,080 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: has two sacks forced fumble that sets up a touchdown. 349 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,800 Speaker 1: He might be that that might get voters again, but 350 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:47,720 Speaker 1: instead they turned because that's how they initially put it 351 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: on the play by play, and then within about ten 352 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: minutes they changed it to an interception. 353 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:54,960 Speaker 4: Ah see, I can't see and still made the play happen. 354 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 1: But just statistically when you're like, what's this guy's case 355 00:14:57,400 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 1: and the So they've changed a voting since you mentioned 356 00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:02,360 Speaker 1: that earlier, I'm not sure. I know there's like a 357 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: panel people. I'm not sure how they're voting. It used 358 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: to be literally they handed out you know what I 359 00:15:06,560 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: was doing. 360 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,320 Speaker 3: They handed up in the press box. 361 00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:11,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and you write in who you want and they 362 00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: have you pick one for each team because you're voting, which, 363 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 1: by the way, different topic. But the whole conspiracy about 364 00:15:17,320 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: trying to get Russell Wilson the MVP over Marshall Lynch. 365 00:15:20,240 --> 00:15:22,600 Speaker 1: The votes were in by the time that play happened 366 00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 1: eleven years ago. You write, okay, if the Seahawks win, 367 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,120 Speaker 1: if the Patriots win, and you turn that in. 368 00:15:27,240 --> 00:15:29,920 Speaker 2: So that was neither here nor there. But I digress. 369 00:15:29,960 --> 00:15:32,520 Speaker 2: The voting has changed. I don't know exactly how it happened. 370 00:15:32,520 --> 00:15:34,320 Speaker 1: Now I did not have a vote, though I might 371 00:15:34,320 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 1: have gone Spoon just to like represent the defense. I mean, 372 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 1: I think Kenneth Walker is probably the right pick because 373 00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:43,440 Speaker 1: overall individual performance and numbers jump out really led that offense. 374 00:15:43,480 --> 00:15:45,320 Speaker 1: But like a pardon me, is like somebody on defense 375 00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 1: has to win because the defense is just so awesome. 376 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, no bad choices there. You could have gone 377 00:15:50,560 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 1: Jason Myers, you could have gone with the Bunter. A 378 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 1: lot of good lots. 379 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 4: I mean, that's what happens when you're the best team 380 00:15:55,160 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 4: in the NFL. You've got options for playmakers. Anything else 381 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:00,800 Speaker 4: from the Super Bowl standout that need to wrap up 382 00:16:00,840 --> 00:16:02,560 Speaker 4: because there was it feels like there was so much 383 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:03,000 Speaker 4: that happened. 384 00:16:03,040 --> 00:16:04,680 Speaker 3: It also feels like that was forever ago. 385 00:16:06,440 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 4: I would say that game played out almost. 386 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:11,200 Speaker 3: Like you expected. 387 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,040 Speaker 4: You expected the pressure to get to the rookies on 388 00:16:14,080 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 4: the left side of the Patriots offensive line. You expected 389 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:21,640 Speaker 4: Drake May to feel the pressure of that rush. I 390 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 4: did not expect that many blitzes in the first half. 391 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,000 Speaker 3: I did not. 392 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:28,760 Speaker 2: Actually wasn't numerically it was. 393 00:16:28,920 --> 00:16:30,000 Speaker 3: It wasn't that many. 394 00:16:30,080 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 1: I know it was, but they sent in Spoon more 395 00:16:32,040 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 1: he'd barely Blitz this year, and they kept sending him 396 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:36,160 Speaker 1: and the pictures had no answers. 397 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:38,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I did not expect A d to be so 398 00:16:39,880 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 4: vocal to his interior D line. It was like as 399 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 4: animated as I have seen him all year long, Like 400 00:16:46,880 --> 00:16:49,720 Speaker 4: it was like in their face. And I saw him 401 00:16:49,920 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 4: on the way to the bus on Monday, I was like, 402 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 4: I was I was a little bit like concerned. They 403 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:55,920 Speaker 4: he goes, oh, I'm sorry. I was like, no, no, no, 404 00:16:56,080 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 4: it worked, it worked. 405 00:16:57,080 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 3: Whatever. 406 00:16:57,640 --> 00:17:00,280 Speaker 4: Whyever that needed to take place to get the rush 407 00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,600 Speaker 4: going they did, But I think everything else kind of 408 00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:03,000 Speaker 4: played out. 409 00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:03,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. 410 00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: Really one of my biggest takeaways from the Super Bowl 411 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 1: early the week is like the days leaning up to it, 412 00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:10,480 Speaker 1: you could just being around that team, you could sense 413 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:13,639 Speaker 1: like they're fine, They're like where really, I mean, it 414 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,199 Speaker 1: was kind of all week We're really stood out was 415 00:17:15,200 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 1: that Thursday media availability.

I 423 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:38,080 Speaker 1: think we all knew, you know, on paper, the matchups 424 00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,600 Speaker 1: favored the Seahawks. They look like the better team all season, 425 00:17:41,160 --> 00:17:44,320 Speaker 1: so to me, like the only oh, like if there's 426 00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: like a letdown or something could mess them up, but 427 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:49,280 Speaker 1: like it was so obvious, and like being around the 428 00:17:49,280 --> 00:17:52,600 Speaker 1: players just on game day morning when they're down break, yeah, 429 00:17:52,680 --> 00:17:52,879 Speaker 1: I was. 430 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,639 Speaker 3: They were so hard. 431 00:17:55,160 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 1: It was like it just felt like any Sunday morning before, 432 00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: you know, a week ten game on and you're like, yep, 433 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:02,680 Speaker 1: they're they're just fine. 434 00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:05,679 Speaker 3: They are just fine. They are also the world champs. 435 00:18:05,720 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 4: We've got just a couple of more final thoughts to 436 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 4: close out this episode. 437 00:18:09,920 --> 00:18:12,200 Speaker 3: When we come back after award from our presenting. 438 00:18:11,880 --> 00:18:15,560 Speaker 5: Sponsor, take your own offseason with Delta Airlines and explore 439 00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,880 Speaker 5: new routes from Seattle to Rome and Barcelona.

There's a few key dates that are coming up. 451 00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:52,560 Speaker 4: And oh, by the way, you're doing this knowing that 452 00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:54,879 Speaker 4: you have a target on your back next year and 453 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,720 Speaker 4: that you've already played longer than most teams in the league. 454 00:18:57,760 --> 00:19:00,480 Speaker 4: So your rest, your recovery, how they handle some of 455 00:19:00,480 --> 00:19:03,160 Speaker 4: those off season workouts I think probably changes. 456 00:19:02,840 --> 00:19:03,320 Speaker 3: A little bit. 457 00:19:03,480 --> 00:19:04,679 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it is. 458 00:19:04,760 --> 00:19:06,880 Speaker 1: It sneaks up on you when you play this long season. 459 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: Night Night mcdonaland brought this up. He's like, we're going 460 00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 1: like commine in like two weeks. It's very soon. So yeah, 461 00:19:11,920 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 1: from the you know, the player personnel standpoint, they're already 462 00:19:14,359 --> 00:19:17,200 Speaker 1: deep into draft preparation. Coaches will get caught up here. 463 00:19:17,920 --> 00:19:20,080 Speaker 1: You know, from a fans standpoint, the next big thing 464 00:19:20,200 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: is free agency coming up in mid March, and you 465 00:19:23,080 --> 00:19:25,040 Speaker 1: do have you know that whole twenty twenty two draft 466 00:19:25,040 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: class that so many standouts to including the Super Bowl MVP. 467 00:19:28,920 --> 00:19:30,480 Speaker 1: A lot of those guys are free agents. They have 468 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,639 Speaker 1: gotten a Lucas and Charles Cross's extensions done already. But 469 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 1: you know, Terike Wolan, Charles Cross and I'm sorry not 470 00:19:37,880 --> 00:19:41,680 Speaker 1: Charles Cross, probably Bryant, Kenneth Walker. A lot of guys 471 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,439 Speaker 1: are going to make decisions on So there are some 472 00:19:43,480 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: of that, but you know, overall, when you look at 473 00:19:45,119 --> 00:19:48,359 Speaker 1: like championship roster, a lot of youth, a lot of 474 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:50,439 Speaker 1: guys under contracts. So there's there's a lot to love 475 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:51,520 Speaker 1: about this team coming back. 476 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,840 Speaker 4: We also will find out who the offensive coordinator will be. 477 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: Another big one'll probably be the next the soonest decision yeap. 478 00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 4: So internal candidates are expected to interview this week. I 479 00:20:02,600 --> 00:20:04,160 Speaker 4: don't even know what day of the week it is, John, 480 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 4: but they are expected to believe, yeah, perhaps this week 481 00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:10,600 Speaker 4: and then they will want to get that settled because 482 00:20:10,920 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 4: that is all part of the conversation when you go 483 00:20:12,960 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 4: towards you know, drafting, signing, all sorts of things. 484 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:18,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, and Mike McGaugh did, he has indicated that, like 485 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:20,080 Speaker 1: you know, it's not a set and zone thing. But 486 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,880 Speaker 1: I think he talked about on this radio show money. 487 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:25,280 Speaker 1: He talked about or Tuesday, whatever day. That was continuity 488 00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 1: and like that idea of like, first of all, it's 489 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:29,800 Speaker 1: it's hard to hire someone from outside the organization this 490 00:20:29,960 --> 00:20:32,119 Speaker 1: late in the process, but technically, like they got a 491 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:34,160 Speaker 1: really good thing going here, you don't want to totally 492 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 1: overhaul your offense. So yeah, I think there's a very 493 00:20:36,119 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 1: good chance it'll be one of these internal candidates. 494 00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, and I think there's a very good chance that 495 00:20:40,359 --> 00:20:42,439 Speaker 4: we will.
