0:00:03.040 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Raves Presspass Podcast. It is Monday, January fifteenth.

0:00:07.000 --> 0:00:10.239
<v Speaker 1>The Ravens are preparing for a Divisional round matchup coming

0:00:10.320 --> 0:00:12.879
<v Speaker 1>up at Mt. Bay Stadium. Today, we had a chance

0:00:12.920 --> 0:00:16.560
<v Speaker 1>to hear from head coach John Harboll.

0:00:16.600 --> 0:00:20.200
<v Speaker 2>Okay, good to see everybody. Appreciate you guys. We are

0:00:20.560 --> 0:00:24.440
<v Speaker 2>deep in the preparations. Last week we spent time on

0:00:24.520 --> 0:00:27.400
<v Speaker 2>all four of the potential teams doing the plominary work,

0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:29.880
<v Speaker 2>a lot of film study, a lot of analytics, things

0:00:29.920 --> 0:00:34.640
<v Speaker 2>like that. Since then, since Houston one, we have been

0:00:34.720 --> 0:00:37.720
<v Speaker 2>dialed in on Houston since the end of that game

0:00:37.840 --> 0:00:43.199
<v Speaker 2>till now, continuing till about seven thirty tonight, and then

0:00:43.240 --> 0:00:46.599
<v Speaker 2>we'll see if we have to pivot to Pittsburgh. So

0:00:46.640 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>that's where we're at with that. What question do you have, John.

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:53.279
<v Speaker 3>You mentioned Houston. I think when you guys played week one,

0:00:53.320 --> 0:00:55.920
<v Speaker 3>you talked about it would be very good football team.

0:00:56.160 --> 0:01:00.120
<v Speaker 3>What's different about them now? About them you know then

0:01:00.240 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 3>versus Netflorks.

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:04.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean there are seventeen games different, I'd say,

0:01:04.040 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 2>you know, coaching experience, all the things that a good

0:01:08.360 --> 0:01:11.120
<v Speaker 2>team does that continues to improve throughout the season. They've

0:01:11.160 --> 0:01:13.440
<v Speaker 2>done a really good job of that. Obviously, they're very

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:17.400
<v Speaker 2>well coached. They have really good young players, some veteran

0:01:17.560 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 2>players as well, and they've continue to improve throughout.

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:23.840
<v Speaker 4>It's Monday, and you don't know for playing Saturday or Sunday.

0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 5>How's it impacting you the practice schedule.

0:01:26.840 --> 0:01:28.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it'll just depend that. We're just waiting to see.

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:31.360
<v Speaker 2>We'll do our normal week either way. So if we

0:01:31.360 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 2>play Saturday, or week will start tomorrow. If we play Sunday,

0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 2>our practice week will start on Wednesday.

0:01:38.800 --> 0:01:41.000
<v Speaker 3>So have you just told your players just you know,

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.360
<v Speaker 3>you play it by year right now?

0:01:43.640 --> 0:01:45.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. I told them to be ready to come in

0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:47.800
<v Speaker 2>the morning for Houston, or we will come in the

0:01:47.840 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 2>afternoon to do our prerimary work for Pittsburgh.

0:01:51.880 --> 0:01:53.680
<v Speaker 5>Thanks for Saturday at the stadium.

0:01:53.760 --> 0:01:56.480
<v Speaker 3>Did you get stuff accomplished? I mean not knowing still

0:01:56.520 --> 0:01:56.960
<v Speaker 3>again what.

0:01:57.320 --> 0:01:58.040
<v Speaker 6>Lies in the store?

0:01:58.280 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was really good, Jerry. I mean we

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 2>had an hour and a half practice. You know, we're

0:02:02.800 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 2>running around fast, timing, execution, good spirits. It was cold

0:02:07.360 --> 0:02:09.960
<v Speaker 2>and windy, and we had a sense of the stadium.

0:02:09.960 --> 0:02:11.679
<v Speaker 2>I think it was good to get in there psychologically,

0:02:11.720 --> 0:02:14.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, just to feel that, you know, just even

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.079
<v Speaker 2>driving down to the stadium. He kind of felt like, Oh,

0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:17.840
<v Speaker 2>it's like a game, you know, because that's what we do.

0:02:17.880 --> 0:02:20.480
<v Speaker 2>We drive to the stadium for our home games. All

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:23.919
<v Speaker 2>of that, to me helped us stay kind of psychologically

0:02:23.960 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 2>in the right place.

0:02:25.560 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 7>John, what will go into your evaluation of whether elevate

0:02:28.680 --> 0:02:30.360
<v Speaker 7>Dalham Cook as soon as this weekend?

0:02:31.800 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 2>It'll be you know what's we have options. The nice

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 2>thing is, but the way the rules are now, we

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:38.200
<v Speaker 2>have those options. So we'll just look at it and say,

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:41.440
<v Speaker 2>from a game plan standpoint and opportunity standpoint, you know

0:02:41.480 --> 0:02:44.040
<v Speaker 2>what makes our team thus strongest at this particular time

0:02:44.080 --> 0:02:46.519
<v Speaker 2>based on what we're going to try to do offensively?

0:02:47.080 --> 0:02:49.160
<v Speaker 3>John, weavest do a lot over the years about preparing

0:02:49.240 --> 0:02:51.800
<v Speaker 3>for weather conditions, probably usually rained, but I mean, in

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:53.400
<v Speaker 3>this case, the forecast is for it to be very

0:02:53.440 --> 0:02:55.040
<v Speaker 3>cold and usually cold for here.

0:02:55.440 --> 0:02:57.399
<v Speaker 5>Is there anything to do to prepare.

0:02:57.120 --> 0:02:58.200
<v Speaker 2>For that or not?

0:02:58.280 --> 0:02:58.600
<v Speaker 7>Really?

0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:00.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean it's not gonna be as much. It's

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:02.440
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be as cold as it was in Kansas City.

0:03:02.840 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 2>It's not gonna be as much snow as there was

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:06.080
<v Speaker 2>in Buffalo. So we're good.

0:03:06.440 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 1>We're good.

0:03:07.360 --> 0:03:09.600
<v Speaker 2>It's good. We feel okay, about it.

0:03:11.720 --> 0:03:14.840
<v Speaker 3>I'm sure we'll see more later this week, but say, Flowers,

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:17.880
<v Speaker 3>is the expectation that you would practice this week.

0:03:18.639 --> 0:03:23.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we're pretty optimistic about everybody, and then varying degrees

0:03:24.000 --> 0:03:27.120
<v Speaker 2>of optimism with certain guys, and uh it really, I

0:03:27.160 --> 0:03:29.359
<v Speaker 2>mean it's just like any week. You just have to

0:03:29.400 --> 0:03:31.480
<v Speaker 2>see it unfold. I mean, some guys are good to go,

0:03:32.639 --> 0:03:35.320
<v Speaker 2>other guys are gonna be more day by day.

0:03:36.720 --> 0:03:39.440
<v Speaker 6>How big was this rest week just for you seeing

0:03:40.000 --> 0:03:41.480
<v Speaker 6>however players coming.

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 2>Back the the health or just how far can you

0:03:44.560 --> 0:03:47.120
<v Speaker 2>say it again? How good was the rest week were

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:49.680
<v Speaker 2>you guys from that standpoint with health or energy, you

0:03:49.720 --> 0:03:52.600
<v Speaker 2>just kind of getting to see time off. Yeah, I

0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.840
<v Speaker 2>think it was good, you know, just from the mental standpoint,

0:03:55.880 --> 0:03:59.320
<v Speaker 2>also certainly the recovery standpoint. I mean, it's it's it's

0:03:59.400 --> 0:04:01.840
<v Speaker 2>late season, a long season. We had a lot of

0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:05.080
<v Speaker 2>very physical games, very physical games down the stretch, and

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:06.440
<v Speaker 2>they were all Every one of our games is a

0:04:06.480 --> 0:04:09.560
<v Speaker 2>meaningful game for us and for our opponent until the

0:04:09.600 --> 0:04:11.720
<v Speaker 2>last one, which was still meaningful for them, and most

0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:16.120
<v Speaker 2>of our guys played. So I think the mental rest

0:04:16.240 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 2>was valuable. You know, you work hard to get that buy.

0:04:19.279 --> 0:04:22.440
<v Speaker 2>I don't think anybody's ever requested not to have the

0:04:22.480 --> 0:04:25.279
<v Speaker 2>buy when they aired it, have they? So it's definitely

0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.080
<v Speaker 2>a positive, you know, and I think I know our

0:04:27.080 --> 0:04:28.560
<v Speaker 2>guys looked at it that way, and we had a

0:04:28.560 --> 0:04:30.960
<v Speaker 2>really good week of practice, so we did what we

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:31.440
<v Speaker 2>need to do.

0:04:33.839 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 7>I recognize you don't you can't look ahead. You mentioned

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:39.480
<v Speaker 7>you know you were looking at the four teams you

0:04:39.560 --> 0:04:42.599
<v Speaker 7>might play. There's also teams you can play the AFC Championshiame,

0:04:42.720 --> 0:04:45.280
<v Speaker 7>you have not seen yet this year. How much time

0:04:45.360 --> 0:04:47.440
<v Speaker 7>do you spend looking at even those teams this week?

0:04:48.040 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, that's the that's preliminary work that we do. So

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:54.039
<v Speaker 2>we will look at the two teams that are playing

0:04:54.040 --> 0:04:57.000
<v Speaker 2>in the other divisional game this week with the individual

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:59.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, the coaches and the staff that are assigned

0:04:59.760 --> 0:05:04.520
<v Speaker 2>those jobs, and they'll have all that information organized, you know,

0:05:05.920 --> 0:05:09.640
<v Speaker 2>after we have an opportunity for gonna play those guys

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:12.480
<v Speaker 2>in one of those teams in the game, John, Because.

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.320
<v Speaker 3>So much rides on this afternoon's game kind of you know,

0:05:15.400 --> 0:05:16.840
<v Speaker 3>when you play who you play everything.

0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:20.039
<v Speaker 5>How much will you be watching this game?

0:05:20.200 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 2>It's gonna be hard not to watch, you know, it's

0:05:21.960 --> 0:05:22.640
<v Speaker 2>gonna be hard not to.

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I like to.

0:05:23.440 --> 0:05:25.279
<v Speaker 2>I'd like to think I'll have the bulk of my work,

0:05:25.440 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 2>my own personal work done by then. I mean, you know,

0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 2>been working hard at it for you know a lot

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:32.840
<v Speaker 2>of days now. Even though those other teams a lot

0:05:32.839 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 2>of it seems like it's wasted. You still do learn

0:05:34.560 --> 0:05:38.120
<v Speaker 2>a lot of football. But as far as the Houston stuff,

0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:40.400
<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be hard not to keep an eye in

0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>that game, for sure.

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:44.920
<v Speaker 6>Is there any level of frustration or anticipation with just

0:05:44.920 --> 0:05:47.720
<v Speaker 6>how circumstances force the game to be moved in Monday

0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:52.159
<v Speaker 6>and your certainty on who your opponent is when you're playing,

0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:56.919
<v Speaker 6>your entire schedule is forced to be not until figured

0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:57.800
<v Speaker 6>out until tonight.

0:05:58.520 --> 0:06:01.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? Really, I mean no, there's no frustration. It's just

0:06:02.400 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 2>it's the way it goes, you know's it's okay. We're

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.960
<v Speaker 2>excited to be in this situation. We're fired up to

0:06:09.000 --> 0:06:11.840
<v Speaker 2>have an opportunity to play in the divisional round of

0:06:11.880 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs. That's that's deep in the playoffs, you know,

0:06:14.200 --> 0:06:16.440
<v Speaker 2>as we see it, and we're hoping to you know,

0:06:16.880 --> 0:06:18.840
<v Speaker 2>do the best we can put our best foot forward player,

0:06:18.839 --> 0:06:21.520
<v Speaker 2>our best football game of this season. That's really that's all,

0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:23.480
<v Speaker 2>it's on our minds as.

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:25.479
<v Speaker 5>Much as you were able to absorb the games in

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:26.640
<v Speaker 5>between work this weekend.

0:06:26.920 --> 0:06:29.640
<v Speaker 3>Was there something maybe you saw that maybe you wrote

0:06:29.680 --> 0:06:31.919
<v Speaker 3>down and said, that's maybe something I've taken note of

0:06:31.960 --> 0:06:33.719
<v Speaker 3>and I should be passing along of the guys.

0:06:33.960 --> 0:06:36.279
<v Speaker 5>Anything you've gleaned from any of those games.

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Uh, yeah, you probably do. From a playoff standpoint. I mean,

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.160
<v Speaker 2>there were teams that came out and played really well.

0:06:44.720 --> 0:06:46.320
<v Speaker 2>There were teams that came out and didn't play well,

0:06:46.560 --> 0:06:48.479
<v Speaker 2>you know, and you take notice of that and you

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:50.640
<v Speaker 2>try to say, well, why, you know, why are those

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.040
<v Speaker 2>things happening to that team? That's not something they expected.

0:06:53.560 --> 0:06:55.560
<v Speaker 2>So it's I think I think all the guys do

0:06:55.600 --> 0:06:57.839
<v Speaker 2>the same thing. You know, I might mention it somewhere

0:06:57.880 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 2>along the way to some degree. But the game last night,

0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:03.560
<v Speaker 2>both teams played great, you know, So we just got

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:06.480
<v Speaker 2>to be focused on playing our best football. We're gonna,

0:07:06.520 --> 0:07:08.680
<v Speaker 2>we're gonna, we're gonna, you know, we want to be focused,

0:07:08.680 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 2>but we want to be loose at the same time.

0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:13.720
<v Speaker 2>Those two things are very important. And that's Suppo. Shoot for.

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:18.040
<v Speaker 4>John, it's been they were coming about a year and

0:07:18.080 --> 0:07:21.960
<v Speaker 4>now since you guys promoted Scott la to spending conditioning coordinator.

0:07:22.920 --> 0:07:26.160
<v Speaker 4>I guess, you know, considering all the attentions of Kaid

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:29.800
<v Speaker 4>to Steve fairly, what made you guys decide to kind

0:07:29.800 --> 0:07:31.560
<v Speaker 4>of keep it in house and what have you been

0:07:31.680 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 4>impressed by for you guys saying it will be being

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:36.040
<v Speaker 4>strong everything that kind of.

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:36.680
<v Speaker 7>Goes in that condition.

0:07:37.360 --> 0:07:39.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know, couldn't in the in the end looking

0:07:39.480 --> 0:07:41.040
<v Speaker 2>back on it in terms of making the choice to

0:07:41.040 --> 0:07:43.800
<v Speaker 2>stay in house and to go with Scott and and

0:07:43.880 --> 0:07:46.720
<v Speaker 2>the rest of the staff there, Uh, we have a great,

0:07:46.960 --> 0:07:50.720
<v Speaker 2>great group with Ron, with Anthony, with k They're all

0:07:50.760 --> 0:07:54.560
<v Speaker 2>all three do a fantastic job. And uh, Sam roseen Garten,

0:07:54.560 --> 0:07:57.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm putting that category as well from a performance standpoint.

0:07:57.800 --> 0:08:02.200
<v Speaker 2>But Scott led it and it was really a a

0:08:02.200 --> 0:08:04.000
<v Speaker 2>an evolution of what we had been doing. We felt

0:08:04.040 --> 0:08:05.280
<v Speaker 2>we were doing a lot of great things in the

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 2>weight and we felt like we had a really good program.

0:08:07.400 --> 0:08:09.680
<v Speaker 2>And you know, I have a lot of respect for

0:08:09.720 --> 0:08:11.960
<v Speaker 2>Steve Saunders. I think he did a worked really hard

0:08:11.960 --> 0:08:14.160
<v Speaker 2>and did a heck of a job and and made

0:08:14.240 --> 0:08:17.440
<v Speaker 2>us a strong and in condition football team. And then Scott,

0:08:17.760 --> 0:08:20.760
<v Speaker 2>you know, through the circumstances that take place. They are

0:08:20.800 --> 0:08:24.720
<v Speaker 2>what they are, and Scott stepped in, uh and you know,

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:26.880
<v Speaker 2>maybe a little bit of a tough, sick circumstance, right

0:08:27.400 --> 0:08:31.240
<v Speaker 2>and I just handled it just gracefully and aggressively and

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:33.880
<v Speaker 2>did a great job. I think he's I think he's

0:08:33.880 --> 0:08:35.520
<v Speaker 2>one of the stars of the season, you know, not

0:08:35.559 --> 0:08:37.320
<v Speaker 2>just Scott, but the whole group that I just mentioned

0:08:37.320 --> 0:08:40.760
<v Speaker 2>before that weight room is one of our star uh

0:08:40.960 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 2>stars of the season. For sure. They've done They've just

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:45.600
<v Speaker 2>done phenomenal. The guys love going in there. They work

0:08:45.640 --> 0:08:48.800
<v Speaker 2>really hard. I think it's very comprehensive in what we do.

0:08:49.440 --> 0:08:52.000
<v Speaker 2>And I'm in there. I'm in there every day, you know,

0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:55.679
<v Speaker 2>with people and you know, maybe not quite as much

0:08:55.720 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 2>weight you know some of the guys, but uh, but

0:08:58.280 --> 0:09:00.880
<v Speaker 2>but I think it's just a great environment that we

0:09:00.960 --> 0:09:01.400
<v Speaker 2>have in there.

0:09:03.800 --> 0:09:08.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you know, when you look at this team, obviously

0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:14.400
<v Speaker 3>there's better guys. Guys have won a young talent Mike

0:09:14.960 --> 0:09:18.280
<v Speaker 3>McDonald and what you've done and Todd as well in yourself,

0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.320
<v Speaker 3>what just stood out to you, I guess from the

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:33.080
<v Speaker 3>makeup of this group staff. I'm sorry, the team, the team.

0:09:30.040 --> 0:09:32.520
<v Speaker 2>I just think and believe, I believe that This is

0:09:33.760 --> 0:09:35.720
<v Speaker 2>one of the most connected teams I've ever been around,

0:09:35.760 --> 0:09:38.080
<v Speaker 2>you know, And I think it starts with the fact

0:09:38.120 --> 0:09:40.280
<v Speaker 2>that I really believe they love one another, and I

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:44.400
<v Speaker 2>think they have a kind of a spiritual connection that

0:09:45.320 --> 0:09:47.760
<v Speaker 2>runs through the whole team. I think the guys you

0:09:47.760 --> 0:09:49.559
<v Speaker 2>can just tell when a group of people like being

0:09:49.600 --> 0:09:52.360
<v Speaker 2>around one another, like working together, trust one another, believing

0:09:52.400 --> 0:09:56.400
<v Speaker 2>one another, and want to see everybody succeed, you know,

0:09:56.600 --> 0:09:59.360
<v Speaker 2>the idea that if one of us succeeds, we all succeed.

0:09:59.400 --> 0:10:01.760
<v Speaker 2>I see that with this group. There's much more than

0:10:01.800 --> 0:10:03.600
<v Speaker 2>any other team that I've been around in you know,

0:10:03.679 --> 0:10:06.920
<v Speaker 2>forty plus years of coaching. So that's that's a real,

0:10:07.200 --> 0:10:10.320
<v Speaker 2>real joy to be around. And it's a reflection of

0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:12.160
<v Speaker 2>all the people that are involved. It's a reflection of

0:10:12.200 --> 0:10:15.920
<v Speaker 2>all the different individuals that go up to make the group,

0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.480
<v Speaker 2>the culture, whatever you want to call it, the environment,

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:23.080
<v Speaker 2>the worldview that they take on, the challenges that are

0:10:23.080 --> 0:10:26.120
<v Speaker 2>in front of them. And I'm just I admire everybody

0:10:26.200 --> 0:10:28.760
<v Speaker 2>and those seats that sit right there in our team meeting,

0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.080
<v Speaker 2>I admire every single person sitting in those seats.

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:37.000
<v Speaker 5>All right, John, how much easier is it when you're

0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:39.600
<v Speaker 5>preaching these guys and a foot I'm not obviously everyone's

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:42.240
<v Speaker 5>gonna be focus in the playoffs, but just throughout the season,

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:46.040
<v Speaker 5>when your quarterback is constantly talking about staying off.

0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:47.400
<v Speaker 3>Then and staying in the home, and.

0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:51.120
<v Speaker 5>When Lamar's constantly preaching that message, how much does that

0:10:51.200 --> 0:10:52.439
<v Speaker 5>help the coaching staff?

0:10:52.800 --> 0:10:55.280
<v Speaker 2>Tremendous. I mean, it's a player's game and the team

0:10:55.280 --> 0:10:57.360
<v Speaker 2>belongs to the players. When when you coming up, you

0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 2>play sports in high school or college, right, what are

0:10:59.920 --> 0:11:03.480
<v Speaker 2>the I always say, you know, it's the seniors run

0:11:03.520 --> 0:11:05.320
<v Speaker 2>the team. It's a senior leadership is the key. You

0:11:05.360 --> 0:11:08.320
<v Speaker 2>have great senior leadership. And that's true in the NFL too.

0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:11.240
<v Speaker 2>You've got have great senior leadership. And we have that

0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:14.680
<v Speaker 2>our seniors, you know, and I don't mean like old

0:11:14.720 --> 0:11:17.120
<v Speaker 2>age type seniors, you know, I mean our veteran players

0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:21.400
<v Speaker 2>and our best players are also our hardest workers. There

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:25.719
<v Speaker 2>are our most responsible guys, and that's what drives the

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.160
<v Speaker 2>whole thing, through the whole deal. So, you know, you

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:31.360
<v Speaker 2>talk about vision, the vision basically the definition of vision

0:11:31.440 --> 0:11:33.720
<v Speaker 2>is a shared understanding. You know, we have a shared

0:11:33.800 --> 0:11:36.480
<v Speaker 2>understanding of what's required and what we need to do

0:11:36.520 --> 0:11:37.720
<v Speaker 2>and how we're going to go about doing it, And

0:11:37.760 --> 0:11:40.360
<v Speaker 2>I just feel like those guys drive that every single day,

0:11:40.360 --> 0:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>locker room, meeting room, practice field, hanging out, going to dinner,

0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:46.840
<v Speaker 2>whatever it might be, that gets reinforced all the time.

0:11:46.840 --> 0:11:48.480
<v Speaker 2>And once it gets reinforced all the time, it kind

0:11:48.480 --> 0:11:50.880
<v Speaker 2>of centers back on itself and gains momentum and next

0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:52.319
<v Speaker 2>thing you know, it's roll.

0:11:56.120 --> 0:11:58.840
<v Speaker 1>That was head coach John Harbaugh and we also have

0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:02.040
