00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:04,560
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Ravens Press Pass Podcast.

2
00:00:04,559 --> 00:00:06,920
Speaker 2: The Ravens were gearing up for a Week eighteen game

3
00:00:06,920 --> 00:00:09,800
Speaker 2: against the Pittsburgh Steelers to close out the regular season.

4
00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 2: Today we had a chance to hear from head coach

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:12,400
Speaker 2: John Hartball.

6
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,320
Speaker 3: Good seeing everybody, appreciate you guys being here. Chad just

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 3: informed that is a massive hole in the sun. You

8
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:25,960
Speaker 3: guys hear about that sixty ears spitting out gamma rays.

9
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:27,840
Speaker 3: Does that mean we're all going to be like Bruce

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:35,839
Speaker 3: Banner Hawks? That'd be amazing, weren't they? Okay, on that note,

11
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:38,040
Speaker 3: what questions you have?

12
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 4: So?

13
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:43,360
Speaker 3: What kind of weather are you preparing for? N I

14
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,080
Speaker 3: guess it'd be a little colder with a hole in

15
00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:49,840
Speaker 3: the sun. Probably we're preparing for cold weather and rain

16
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 3: and sleep and a you know, grass field is going

17
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,160
Speaker 3: to be probably a little bit, a little bit loose,

18
00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 3: so getting ready for that, especially.

19
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 5: This rivalry with Pittsburgh. How do you think that has

20
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 5: influenced the locker room and especially kind of the bitter

21
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,000
Speaker 5: taste of the left game.

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 6: You guys play.

23
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I don't think no matter who you

24
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:22,920
Speaker 3: play in this particular game, in this situation, there would

25
00:01:22,920 --> 00:01:25,480
Speaker 3: be no lack of motivation. I mean, our guys love

26
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 3: to play. The pro football players. They want to go

27
00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:28,800
Speaker 3: out there and they want to play, and they want

28
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:30,680
Speaker 3: to play while they want to win and they want

29
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:33,080
Speaker 3: to put their best foot forward. The fact that it's

30
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:38,000
Speaker 3: division rival, the Steelers, that certainly doesn't lessen it. You know,

31
00:01:38,080 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 3: that's it's always a very important game for us. It's

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:43,920
Speaker 3: a team that we respect very much. We also understand

33
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,440
Speaker 3: the type of game that we're always playing against those guys,

34
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 3: so our guys are looking forward to it.

35
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:52,960
Speaker 7: He's been kind of the guy the last couple of

36
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,279
Speaker 7: weeks now that they've been winning a couple of games.

37
00:01:55,280 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 3: How has he kind of impacted that offense? Well, I mean,

38
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 3: obviously they've been very success with him in there. I

39
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 3: think he's uh, he's he's making I think he's reading

40
00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 3: the offense out. They've got, you know, kind of they've adjusted,

41
00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:09,320
Speaker 3: they've kind of written certain directions and away from certain

42
00:02:09,320 --> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 3: directions in terms of what they're running, what they're calling. Uh,

43
00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 3: he's operating the offense really well, putting the ball where

44
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,639
Speaker 3: it's supposed to go based on the coverage, and they're

45
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: running the ball really well. And he's done really well so, uh,

46
00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:22,840
Speaker 3: you know, just kind of looked at him and how

47
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,120
Speaker 3: he's it's there's still their offense, but his version of

48
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 3: it is what we're studying. The video you guys pusted

49
00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:32,120
Speaker 3: the pro bow announcements obviously, and particularly striking.

50
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 4: I think it was maybe.

51
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 3: Patrick Queen's reaction how much how much it meant to him.

52
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,640
Speaker 3: I mean, was that kind of any thing for you

53
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:38,919
Speaker 3: to see? I mean, you know how much he took

54
00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,760
Speaker 3: them to heart back when he was a twenty one

55
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 3: year old rookie, and was cool to see that. Well, yeah,

56
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 3: it was great to see it. I mean, you know,

57
00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:47,160
Speaker 3: it's very deserving. I thought he played great last year too,

58
00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 3: and to see it recognized by the peers and the

59
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 3: fans and everybody. To see that video with Eric, it

60
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,240
Speaker 3: was really cool to see. I mean, I thought that

61
00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,640
Speaker 3: was great with all the guys and yeah, just you know,

62
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:01,160
Speaker 3: it means a lot of the guys to be recognized

63
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: like that. It's a pro football player. When you're a

64
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:07,240
Speaker 3: pro football player, it always it's always strikes me, is

65
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 3: how much it means to the guys Every year when

66
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:10,799
Speaker 3: you make those announcements.

67
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 8: What's it like for you when you're revealing one by

68
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:16,000
Speaker 8: one in front of the whole team, and what's that like?

69
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,640
Speaker 3: It's it's fun, man Like we of course we've got technology,

70
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:20,720
Speaker 3: so you know, we'll get the screen, we get some drama.

71
00:03:20,800 --> 00:03:22,680
Speaker 3: Did the lights a little bit? All of a sudden

72
00:03:22,680 --> 00:03:26,000
Speaker 3: the picture pops up for the player and uh goes crazy.

73
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:27,240
Speaker 3: So it's it's a lot of fun.

74
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,359
Speaker 9: I guess how much of the I don't say like press,

75
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:38,320
Speaker 9: but the kind of gap scheme that it's placed to run, they.

76
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 6: Have been effective using it. You guys have been helping

77
00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:42,920
Speaker 6: down like that kind of stuff this year.

78
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 9: How important are how much are you kind of looking

79
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:47,360
Speaker 9: towards to how you guys defend that did this week

80
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,400
Speaker 9: as a repair?

81
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's uh, it's uh. They run. They

82
00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:54,839
Speaker 3: run a couple of versions. They run of gaps games,

83
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 3: they run you know, we're called duo with no fuller.

84
00:03:57,200 --> 00:03:59,000
Speaker 3: You know they've been running that for years. They usually

85
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,280
Speaker 3: do it with the tight ends side with extra tight

86
00:04:01,360 --> 00:04:04,160
Speaker 3: ends over there. Sometimes they'll bring the wide receivers down

87
00:04:04,240 --> 00:04:07,000
Speaker 3: there and insert them or or sift the backside and

88
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 3: then they run the puller gap skins. You know, the

89
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,640
Speaker 3: power more than anything else with power. Oh and they've

90
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:14,920
Speaker 3: been great at that, and I think the biggest thing

91
00:04:14,960 --> 00:04:17,360
Speaker 3: is it's a downhill run, but it can also bounce.

92
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 3: You know, if you stop it up inside and you

93
00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:20,800
Speaker 3: don't control your redges, those two backs will take it

94
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:22,599
Speaker 3: outside of the second and they're both hard to tackle.

95
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 3: So it'll be a big challenge for us every week

96
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,640
Speaker 3: stands on its own and stopping the run will be,

97
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:29,800
Speaker 3: you know, job one force in this game.

98
00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 4: John. Opportunity do you think with Tyler?

99
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 10: I mean, we really haven't seen much this year because

100
00:04:34,520 --> 00:04:37,000
Speaker 10: Lamar has been there for all.

101
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:39,000
Speaker 4: What comportunity do you think this presents.

102
00:04:38,640 --> 00:04:39,279
Speaker 6: For him as well?

103
00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 4: Oh?

104
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:41,800
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a big opportunity. I mean, you know, go

105
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:43,760
Speaker 3: out there and then play against the defense like this,

106
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 3: you know, one of the top defenses.

107
00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:45,680
Speaker 4: In the league.

108
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: It's it's a great opportunity for him. But he's ready

109
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:53,240
Speaker 3: for it. You know, I'm looking forward to seeing him play.

110
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,080
Speaker 9: The focus is on just execution at that quarterback spot.

111
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:58,280
Speaker 9: But is there any part of you can see how

112
00:04:58,520 --> 00:05:01,800
Speaker 9: you know differently Tyler kind of it's from Lamar and

113
00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 9: you know, obviously the same kind of team, same play caller,

114
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:09,040
Speaker 9: but so far there up the business.

115
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,479
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's that's true for for any quarterbacks

116
00:05:13,520 --> 00:05:17,280
Speaker 3: or any players. You know, everybody brings their own stamp

117
00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 3: to it, you know. And then as a coach, I

118
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:20,719
Speaker 3: think you recognize that. And when you play guys like

119
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,920
Speaker 3: you're talking about Mason Rudolph, it's the same exact thing.

120
00:05:23,480 --> 00:05:25,479
Speaker 3: They have their different style. You kind of recognize that.

121
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:26,679
Speaker 3: It is fun to watch.

122
00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,560
Speaker 9: And again, a man which will not have a record

123
00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:33,960
Speaker 9: below five hundred, it's pretty a standing market over the years.

124
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 3: What's your what do you pregame conversations? Have they evolved

125
00:05:36,760 --> 00:05:39,479
Speaker 3: over the time, Like from the beginnings, we're both young coaches,

126
00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:41,239
Speaker 3: and now that some of the guys have been around,

127
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:44,640
Speaker 3: I appreciate that both young coaches. Yeah that's good. You

128
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,920
Speaker 3: mean yeah, well you said we were young coaches. Yeah,

129
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:54,680
Speaker 3: you're right, Okay, I guess I'll take it. It's uh,

130
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: it's it's it's like any relationship. I mean, it's it's

131
00:05:57,120 --> 00:05:59,960
Speaker 3: certainly grown involved over the years. I have great respect

132
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:03,479
Speaker 3: for Mike for what he's done, for their organization, for

133
00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:05,839
Speaker 3: what they've done. I think his stamp is on the

134
00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:07,880
Speaker 3: football team without question. You know, they're a team that

135
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,800
Speaker 3: plays winning football. They don't beat themselves, They don't have

136
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 3: a lot of penalties, they don't turn the ball over.

137
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:16,440
Speaker 3: And then his style is kind of ever since he

138
00:06:16,480 --> 00:06:19,599
Speaker 3: got there, they've been about playing good, solid football and

139
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:22,159
Speaker 3: then being physical and then creating big plays, you know,

140
00:06:22,200 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: on both sides of the ball. So I think that's

141
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 3: there again now like it always is, and just come

142
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:29,200
Speaker 3: to understand that. I think they probably have a pretty

143
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,880
Speaker 3: good understanding and how we like to play, and probably

144
00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 3: Mike and I probably have a pretty good understanding how

145
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:37,040
Speaker 3: each other coaches his team, you know, So there won't

146
00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:38,919
Speaker 3: be too many surprises probably that way. But it's an

147
00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:42,040
Speaker 3: honor and I am I'm grateful for it and definitely

148
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 3: don't take that part of it lightly. It's a good

149
00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 3: competitive relationship and it's been amazing.

150
00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:51,880
Speaker 1: That was head coach Jehan Harball.

151
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:54,239
Speaker 2: We also got the news this week of the Ravens

152
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,320
Speaker 2: having seven players selected to the Pro Bowl. One of

153
00:06:57,320 --> 00:06:59,919
Speaker 2: those guys is the first time Pro bowler is linebacker.

154
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,120
Speaker 1: Had your queen. We talked with him today.

155
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:08,160
Speaker 3: Gotcha you so much been to you when you got

156
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,480

00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:05,479
Speaker 4: Uh, just being able to come out and showcase.

210
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,760
Speaker 10: Were you were you thinking about the whole four years,

211
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:10,320
Speaker 10: cause I mean you've been You've been very.

212
00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,360
Speaker 3: Honest about the fact that Lee Lee know it's easier

213
00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,240
Speaker 3: in probably years one to two. Yeah, all that hit you.

214
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,200
Speaker 11: Yeah, it just the first the first two years were

215
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 11: definitely uh rough, uh for me and the fan base

216
00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 11: and everybody uh that's involved. But uh, I knew myself.

217
00:09:26,160 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 11: I knew uh the type of person I am. I

218
00:09:28,559 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 11: don't run from a fight, and uh, it was just

219
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:32,600
Speaker 11: some mu's worked out. Like I said, I had to

220
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 11: put in and understanding that I came in uh to

221
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 11: the lead raw uh young uh, but not that much

222
00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,920
Speaker 11: experience under my belt. So I knew it was gonna

223
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 11: be a building process, but I didn't expect it to

224
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,880
Speaker 11: be that hard. And honestly, you know, it's just it.

225
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:47,559
Speaker 11: I wouldn't trade it for the world. I wouldn't y

226
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,120
Speaker 11: you know, uh redo anything that I I've been through,

227
00:09:50,160 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 11: I would still face everything like I did.

228
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:52,640
Speaker 4: Uh.

229
00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,160
Speaker 11: I think that's what Bill's character and I think that

230
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 11: put me in a position that I am right now

231
00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,080
Speaker 11: just to uh, you know, be so confident in myself

232
00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,079
Speaker 11: and just u uh being able to cherish every moment.

233
00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 7: Patrick all year you and pro Corne and Adam and that

234
00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:07,080
Speaker 7: you're the best linebacker do in the in the league.

235
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:09,480
Speaker 7: How happier are you to see that you are the

236
00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:12,400
Speaker 7: two guys representing the inside line back the crew in the.

237
00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,240
Speaker 4: End or so It's pretty dope. It's pretty dope.

238
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 11: Uh, anytime you get to share share that man, uh,

239
00:10:17,760 --> 00:10:19,480
Speaker 11: being a teammate with him and the type of person

240
00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,480
Speaker 11: he is and uh how he plays the game and

241
00:10:21,520 --> 00:10:23,640
Speaker 11: just be able to share that kind of accolate with somebody.

242
00:10:23,720 --> 00:10:25,800
Speaker 11: I mean, it just means a lot, uh, just like

243
00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:28,520
Speaker 11: I respect this game or respect him as a person, uh,

244
00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:30,920
Speaker 11: just everything about him, and you know, uh being able

245
00:10:30,920 --> 00:10:32,040
Speaker 11: to share that is huge.

246
00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: How you're basically emotional obviously in that video of the

247
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: day post. Did you remember a time before in your

248
00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: football player that something brought out this much emotion?

249
00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,200
Speaker 11: And yet not not even cause I don't any think

250
00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,280
Speaker 11: we don't want to not out that happy honestly. Uh,

251
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,640
Speaker 11: It's just it's I think it's just on a different scale,

252
00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 11: like the whole world is like you know, basically saying

253
00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:52,199
Speaker 11: Congress like, uh, you played, you had a hell of

254
00:10:52,240 --> 00:10:55,280
Speaker 11: a season, and it's just it's it's not a feeling.

255
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,720
Speaker 11: I think that could relate to that. Honestly, you at

256
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 11: you say, dope.

257
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:01,160
Speaker 3: You just really know what's gonna happen after the season

258
00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,280
Speaker 3: in terms of where you are. Is that is that

259
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:04,880
Speaker 3: in your mind at all? Is that freeing how you're

260
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:05,679
Speaker 3: thinking about this run?

261
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 11: Or is that just you know, just shoved out of

262
00:11:07,559 --> 00:11:09,040
Speaker 11: it comes up every now and then by the end

263
00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:11,559
Speaker 11: of the day. Man, I'm happy where I'm at right now, honestly,

264
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 11: And you know, we still out, Like I said, we

265
00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:15,640
Speaker 11: got a lot of games out to play with that

266
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,200
Speaker 11: one goal that we all want. So if we achieved that,

267
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:19,920
Speaker 11: I think everything else to take care of itself.

268
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:21,880
Speaker 4: Patrick.

269
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:24,600
Speaker 5: We can see the the KT tape on your shoulder

270
00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,280
Speaker 5: and I've seen some things from games.

271
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:30,400
Speaker 10: What's the discussion like this week is you know, you know.

272
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,760
Speaker 5: You could probably maybe be one of the guys who

273
00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:35,199
Speaker 5: gets some rested versus playing against the Steelers.

274
00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:38,000
Speaker 11: I'm gonna suit up. I'm soon up, so I'm excited

275
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,080
Speaker 11: to get out there. I'm excited to play.

276
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:44,720
Speaker 1: That was linebacker Patrick Queen.

277
00:11:44,800 --> 00:11:47,559
Speaker 2: Another Pro bowler on this team is center Tyler linderbob

278
00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:50,600
Speaker 2: first round pick, was selected in his second NFL season.

279
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:53,080
Speaker 2: He's really established himself as one of the best centers

280
00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,719
Speaker 2: in all of football, and he reacted to that recognition

281
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,920
Speaker 2: today on the podium.

282
00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,400
Speaker 8: We told a little bit of video when Eric was

283
00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 8: kind of breaking it to you.

284
00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 4: How's a feel when you kind of.

285
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 8: Get that honor of knowing that you're among the best,

286
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:10,800
Speaker 8: that you're at your position in the NFL.

287
00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,320
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know, it feels good. I mean, especially you

288
00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:21,440
Speaker 10: know year two. You know, it's not really an accolade

289
00:12:21,440 --> 00:12:23,679
Speaker 10: I try to play for. Accolades aren't something I try

290
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:27,719
Speaker 10: to play for. But I think it's it happens when

291
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 10: the team's playing well. You know, you're gonna get more

292
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:33,320
Speaker 10: guys that, you know, get recognized. You know, I said

293
00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 10: an interview yesterday. You know, I think a lot of

294
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,720
Speaker 10: credit goes to my teammates as well too, you know,

295
00:12:37,760 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 10: the guys they play next to making my job a

296
00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:43,880
Speaker 10: little bit easier, you know, and then you know, the

297
00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,480
Speaker 10: coaching staff and stuff like that.

298
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,160
Speaker 4: But you know, it was a good feeling.

299
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,439
Speaker 10: No, I mean, it wasn't a good feeling Initially when I

300
00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 10: got I said, someone said I had to go up

301
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:56,320
Speaker 10: and talk to EDC but because you know, you never know.

302
00:12:56,559 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 10: But no, it was good when he told me. You know,

303
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:01,679
Speaker 10: the cameras we're in there and it's a pretty cool experience.

304
00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:08,360
Speaker 10: I don't know, I don't know what we're going to

305
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,600
Speaker 10: talk about, but you never know.

306
00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:12,680
Speaker 3: Your first round picks a year.

307
00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:13,800
Speaker 4: Ago, both in the Pro Bowl.

308
00:13:14,559 --> 00:13:17,800
Speaker 3: You share that with Kyle? What does that mean to him? Yeah,

309
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 3: just you know, we continue to work, continue to each other.

310
00:13:20,559 --> 00:13:22,480
Speaker 10: You know, guys on the Steam, there's like a good

311
00:13:22,520 --> 00:13:24,520
Speaker 10: men that are deserving of being Pro Bowlers.

312
00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:26,000
Speaker 4: You know.

313
00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:30,360
Speaker 10: I think there's a lot of talented guys on this team.

314
00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:29,920
Speaker 3: Especially Kyle.

315
00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:31,320
Speaker 10: Kyle can do a lot of different things.

316
00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 3: You know.

317
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 10: You guys see it on the field, you know, and

318
00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:35,440
Speaker 10: just in the locker room. He's a great guy too.

319
00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 10: So happy for him and proud of him, you know.

320
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:41,760
Speaker 10: But you know, I think a lot of guys can agree.

321
00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,840
Speaker 10: You know, we still got another goal that we're chasing.

322
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 5: So not to minimize your talent and your work ethic

323
00:13:48,480 --> 00:13:50,560
Speaker 5: to get to this position, but is there anything that

324
00:13:51,280 --> 00:13:56,200
Speaker 5: the Ravens did. We're about the way things work here

325
00:13:56,280 --> 00:14:00,120
Speaker 5: that you think has kind of helped maximize your ability

326
00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:01,640
Speaker 5: in your first two years year career.

327
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,800
Speaker 10: Yeah, Like I said, you know, we got a lot

328
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:05,400
Speaker 10: of good players on this team. You know a lot

329
00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:07,200
Speaker 10: of guys around me that are really good and really

330
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:11,960
Speaker 10: talented players. So anytime you're surrounding yourself by elite talent,

331
00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:13,360
Speaker 10: you know it's going to make you better.

332
00:14:13,440 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 4: And I think it's definitely done that. You know, the

333
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 4: first two years.

334
00:14:16,040 --> 00:14:18,440
Speaker 10: Just continue to get better, learn from each other, I

335
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:19,600
Speaker 10: think is the biggest.

336
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 8: Thing has been working offensive line has been different guys

337
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:27,320
Speaker 8: than me. Oh, I think it's you know, I think

338
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:30,320
Speaker 8: it's been good for us, you know, keeping guys fresh.

339
00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:32,360
Speaker 10: Uh you know, you know we that deal with some

340
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:35,320
Speaker 10: injuries and we won't guys be fresh in the fourth quarter.

341
00:14:35,360 --> 00:14:38,240
Speaker 10: And I think you know we've we've shown that and

342
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:41,360
Speaker 10: guys are continuing to get healthier and stronger, and we

343
00:14:41,440 --> 00:14:42,640
Speaker 10: got a lot of guys on the line that can

344
00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:43,320
Speaker 10: play good football.

345
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:44,400
Speaker 4: So whoever's in there, you.

346
00:14:44,400 --> 00:14:46,920
Speaker 10: Know, we got one hundred trust and confidence and then

347
00:14:47,080 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 10: they'll get the job done.

348
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,520
Speaker 3: It's finely.

349
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:52,400
Speaker 8: Coming out of college, you had your critics who talk

350
00:14:52,480 --> 00:14:55,720
Speaker 8: about how small you were, and now you're pro bowlder.

351
00:14:56,680 --> 00:14:58,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're always gonna have critics. You know, I still

352
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,800
Speaker 4: there's still critics. You know, our what even if you.

353
00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 10: Make the Pro Bowl. You know, at the end of

354
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:05,760
Speaker 10: the day, at the end of the day, you know,

355
00:15:05,760 --> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 10: the Pittsburgh Stars are gonna care on Saturday if I'm

356
00:15:07,680 --> 00:15:08,880
Speaker 10: a pro bowler and now I'm still gonna have to

357
00:15:08,920 --> 00:15:09,640
Speaker 10: go out there and play.

358
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:12,520
Speaker 4: So you know, just.

359
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,480
Speaker 10: Enjoy it for whenever they said, you know, I made

360
00:15:17,480 --> 00:15:19,400
Speaker 10: the problem, but I got to move ahead and you know,

361
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,840
Speaker 10: focus on this upcoming game and then into the playoff

362
00:15:21,880 --> 00:15:24,520
Speaker 10: push because we're all chasing a goal. You know that

363
00:15:24,520 --> 00:15:27,120
Speaker 10: that is bigger than Pro Bowls.

364
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:28,359
Speaker 4: You know, the guys.

365
00:15:28,080 --> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 6: Around you contributed to to.

366
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:34,239
Speaker 3: That, to to your abilities. You can you accomplished.

367
00:15:34,600 --> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 6: I'm just curious as a as a unit. What has

368
00:15:37,040 --> 00:15:39,400
Speaker 6: made you guys so good?

369
00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 3: You know, we said in San Francisco.

370
00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:46,280
Speaker 6: Game, we've seen other games. Is he continuity? Obviously the

371
00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:51,560
Speaker 6: talents there, but it is a communication recognition. What stood

372
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:52,000
Speaker 6: out A.

373
00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:56,920
Speaker 10: Yeah, uh, you know, I think one whenever you got

374
00:15:56,960 --> 00:15:58,720
Speaker 10: a bunch of talented guys, you got to play together,

375
00:15:58,760 --> 00:16:00,480
Speaker 10: and I think you know, we've can t to get

376
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:03,520
Speaker 10: better and better no matter who's in there, just you know,

377
00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:06,880
Speaker 10: all five playing together. You know, it doesn't do any

378
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,720
Speaker 10: good if if four guys are playing playing well together

379
00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:12,480
Speaker 10: and then one guy isn't. You know, you gotta that's

380
00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,240
Speaker 10: the unique thing about the position is is the continuity,

381
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 10: like you said, that needs to happen in order to

382
00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:22,040
Speaker 10: be successful as a unit and just continue to make

383
