00:00:00,320 –> 00:00:02,720
Speaker 1: Taking danage on the day. All right, when you get
2
00:00:02,759 –> 00:00:05,240
Speaker 1: oportunity in this game, you may can play Michael, don’t
3
00:00:05,280 –> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: do what touchdown Kansas City the Cheats, all right in
4
00:00:11,720 –> 00:00:23,400
Speaker 1: the thick of a baby. Well, hello, everybody, welcome to
5
00:00:23,440 –> 00:00:26,159
Speaker 1: this edition of Defending the Kingdom. Mitch holds us with
6
00:00:26,280 –> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 1: you voice of the Chiefs, along with the man ten
7
00:00:29,000 –> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: years National Football League veteran. We know him as the Shop,
8
00:00:31,960 –> 00:00:36,920
Speaker 1: the Barbershop, the spider Man. And when the schedule came out,
9
00:00:36,960 –> 00:00:39,879
Speaker 1: we had the blessing of being able to release the
10
00:00:39,960 –> 00:00:44,240
Speaker 1: schedule in late April to the Chiefs Kingdom. The NFL
11
00:00:44,240 –> 00:00:46,000
Speaker 1: allowed us to do that. I remember that night. It
12
00:00:46,040 –> 00:00:50,839
Speaker 1: was exciting, but everybody wanted to see window the Chiefs
13
00:00:50,880 –> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: play the Ravens. And then we found out it was
14
00:00:54,080 –> 00:00:57,440
Speaker 1: the last weekend of September. Shop in a battle of
15
00:00:57,520 –> 00:01:02,080
Speaker 1: the last two MVPs of the league. And we’re gonna
16
00:01:02,080 –> 00:01:06,119
Speaker 1: call this, you know, two goats in a pasture because
17
00:01:06,160 –> 00:01:09,200
Speaker 1: we talk about to go to the acronym the Greatest
18
00:01:09,200 –> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 1: of all time. Baltimore thinks they’ve got it. We know
19
00:01:12,040 –> 00:01:13,800
Speaker 1: that the greatest of all time is here in the
20
00:01:13,840 –> 00:01:17,039
Speaker 1: Chiefs Kingdom. But still Shop, what a great matchup to
21
00:01:17,120 –> 00:01:19,760
Speaker 1: have these two quarterbacks go head to head once again
22
00:01:19,880 –> 00:01:24,280
Speaker 1: for a third time. Man, you cannot even imagine a
23
00:01:24,400 –> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: fan of football, a true purist of the game. And
24
00:01:27,640 –> 00:01:30,120
Speaker 1: when you think of what makes a quarterback great, what
25
00:01:30,319 –> 00:01:33,800
Speaker 1: makes a quarterback unguardable? It’s either his scrambling the building,
26
00:01:34,440 –> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 1: his vision, his athleticism, his top end speed, acceleration, arm strength, vision,
27
00:01:41,600 –> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: dewn field, or his knowledge of the game those eight attributes.
28
00:01:46,280 –> 00:01:49,080
Speaker 1: Number one in each one of those attributes is either
29
00:01:49,160 –> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 1: Lamartin Jackson or Pat Mahomes. You are getting the best
30
00:01:53,640 –> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks in every aspect. When you talk about being
31
00:01:58,480 –> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: an elite quarterback, these guys are doing all of those
32
00:02:01,680 –> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: things at the highest level, not just currently, but I
33
00:02:05,000 –> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 1: think we’ve ever seen in football. And speaking of the
34
00:02:08,919 –> 00:02:12,200
Speaker 1: highest level, we want to mention are defending the Kingdom.
35
00:02:12,360 –> 00:02:17,360
Speaker 1: Podcast brought to you by Yes These Bows seven hundred headphones.
36
00:02:18,120 –> 00:02:20,239
Speaker 1: Bows we know as the leader in the industry, but
37
00:02:20,280 –> 00:02:22,919
Speaker 1: they’ve improved even more with these. You can personalize your
38
00:02:23,000 –> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 1: environment with eleven levels of noise cancelation shop. I love
39
00:02:26,919 –> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 1: to do a lot of my research and work at night,
40
00:02:29,040 –> 00:02:31,480
Speaker 1: and I need to go to some place like drift away,
41
00:02:31,800 –> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 1: and if they got to come get me, they got
42
00:02:33,280 –> 00:02:35,040
Speaker 1: to come get me in some other planet. Because these
43
00:02:35,080 –> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: things are phenomenal, whether it’s music or whatever. I’m listening
44
00:02:39,080 –> 00:02:42,079
Speaker 1: to a podcasts like this one. They’re amazing, but these
45
00:02:42,120 –> 00:02:45,320
Speaker 1: two quarterbacks are amazing. It’s interesting when you put those
46
00:02:45,360 –> 00:02:48,360
Speaker 1: attributes out there together because to me, they’re getting to
47
00:02:48,400 –> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: the same place two different ways. I’m going to talk
48
00:02:51,760 –> 00:02:56,560
Speaker 1: with Andy Reid later this week. Bringing up or playing
49
00:02:56,560 –> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 1: Baltimore is like, I’m an Army fan. Let’s just put
50
00:02:58,880 –> 00:03:01,400
Speaker 1: it out there here for the Army Black Knights. But
51
00:03:01,400 –> 00:03:05,560
Speaker 1: you’re playing Army, Navy or Air Force, and you’ve got
52
00:03:05,560 –> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 1: to play differently. Right, you’re playing option football. They’ll still
53
00:03:08,680 –> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 1: get the forty points, they’re just doing it differently than
54
00:03:11,520 –> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: some other teams. So you look at Mahomes, he’s thrown
55
00:03:14,320 –> 00:03:17,240
Speaker 1: for five thousand yards fifty touchdowns. But you look at Jackson,
56
00:03:17,320 –> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: he has run for twelve hundred yards, almost thirteen hundred
57
00:03:20,600 –> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: yards and thirty one hundred yards passing. So it’s getting
58
00:03:25,000 –> 00:03:28,239
Speaker 1: there two different ways. But it’s phenomenally interesting to look
59
00:03:28,280 –> 00:03:32,480
Speaker 1: at these guys and study them. That those attributes you
60
00:03:32,600 –> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: gave one, maybe two, two, maybe one, but they’re getting
61
00:03:36,480 –> 00:03:40,520
Speaker 1: to the same place different with different circumstances. And as
62
00:03:40,520 –> 00:03:43,600
Speaker 1: we see them, both evolved as defenses try to take
63
00:03:43,600 –> 00:03:47,600
Speaker 1: away their strength. That’s the important thing. When Pat Mahomes
64
00:03:47,720 –> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 1: was seen as this elite arm talent and everybody thought,
65
00:03:50,800 –> 00:03:52,360
Speaker 1: the only thing you had to do is drop man
66
00:03:52,520 –> 00:03:55,360
Speaker 1: people in the coverage, play man across the board, make
67
00:03:55,440 –> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 1: him scramble, make him run. And didn’t you realize, oh,
68
00:03:58,920 –> 00:04:01,040
Speaker 1: he can do that and get to the super Bowl
69
00:04:01,200 –> 00:04:03,880
Speaker 1: and win a Super Bowl using his legs. And then
70
00:04:03,920 –> 00:04:06,040
Speaker 1: on the other page you look at Lamar Jackson and
71
00:04:06,120 –> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: they say, oh, all he is is a running back
72
00:04:08,240 –> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 1: at quarterback. Let’s make him throw the ball, and he
73
00:04:11,280 –> 00:04:13,119
Speaker 1: ends up eating for one of the yards in the air,
74
00:04:13,840 –> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 1: dropping dimes all over the place, the tight ends and
75
00:04:15,840 –> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: running backs out of the backfield, hidding Hollywood Brown down
76
00:04:18,080 –> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: the scene, and he can beat you with four touchdowns
77
00:04:21,320 –> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: through the air. So each one of them are taking
78
00:04:23,320 –> 00:04:25,799
Speaker 1: their attributes and they’re using them to attack a defense.
79
00:04:26,120 –> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 1: And then it as the defense tries to adjust to
80
00:04:28,640 –> 00:04:32,039
Speaker 1: take away their strength, well, they take their weakness and
81
00:04:32,320 –> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 1: make it the strength. So I love how both of
82
00:04:34,400 –> 00:04:39,880
Speaker 1: them are becoming so equally yoked, well balanced, and they’re scrambling, ability, running, ability, vision,
83
00:04:40,120 –> 00:04:43,960
Speaker 1: but also being able to attack by air and by laying. Yeah,
84
00:04:43,960 –> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 1: it’s interesting. Mahomes a terrific thrower, but can run. We
85
00:04:47,160 –> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: saw that against the Chargers last week. We’ve seen it
86
00:04:49,680 –> 00:04:52,880
Speaker 1: time and time again. And Jackson is a great runner
87
00:04:52,920 –> 00:04:56,800
Speaker 1: who can throw, and so it’s intriguing to look at that.
88
00:04:57,279 –> 00:05:00,960
Speaker 1: But one thing that I’ve learned too, Patrick Mahomes as
89
00:05:00,960 –> 00:05:03,640
Speaker 1: a photographic memory. I mean the volumes of information that
90
00:05:04,040 –> 00:05:07,560
Speaker 1: Andy Reid puts on him. I said, he listens, he absorbs,
91
00:05:07,600 –> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: he ascertains, and then he acts and that’s a gift.
92
00:05:11,520 –> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 1: But at the one on one banquet last year here
93
00:05:13,440 –> 00:05:16,960
Speaker 1: in Kansas City, Lamar Jackson got the MVP Awards. So
94
00:05:17,000 –> 00:05:19,520
Speaker 1: he’s up on stage with John Harbaugh and he kept
95
00:05:19,560 –> 00:05:22,279
Speaker 1: getting asked about the two games against Mahomes and the Chiefs,
96
00:05:22,800 –> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 1: and up on stage he was going through that thing.
97
00:05:24,880 –> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: I did a minute with Mitch on it this week.
98
00:05:26,720 –> 00:05:29,800
Speaker 1: He went through those two games, chapter and verse, hashmark.
99
00:05:30,080 –> 00:05:34,680
Speaker 1: He could recite every down of those two games. That
100
00:05:34,800 –> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: to me, I went, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. This guy
101
00:05:38,000 –> 00:05:42,400
Speaker 1: has that too. I just think maybe we underestimate Lamar
102
00:05:42,480 –> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: Jackson and his ability to process, listen, ascertain, absorb, and act.
103
00:05:47,920 –> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: We talked about hidden talents and maybe in Louisville they
104
00:05:51,680 –> 00:05:54,960
Speaker 1: didn’t have to utilize his photographic memory. Maybe it was
105
00:05:55,040 –> 00:05:57,160
Speaker 1: easy for him just to hold up the cards. You
106
00:05:57,279 –> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 1: got the four squares right now, win quarter one, gonna
107
00:06:00,279 –> 00:06:03,120
Speaker 1: you square one. Everybody knows the plays. We’re not gonna
108
00:06:03,120 –> 00:06:05,440
Speaker 1: have him call plays in the huddle. And that’s when
109
00:06:05,480 –> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 1: something that’s scared people off. Right coming out of college,
110
00:06:09,440 –> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: when there was this draft profile, it was like, well,
111
00:06:11,800 –> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 1: has he ever commanded a huddle? And we know in
112
00:06:15,040 –> 00:06:17,320
Speaker 1: the pros you have to command the huddle, So that
113
00:06:17,440 –> 00:06:19,720
Speaker 1: was seemed as something that that caused a lot of
114
00:06:19,760 –> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: teams to scare away from him until he gets to
115
00:06:22,240 –> 00:06:25,160
Speaker 1: the Ravens, where Ozzie ended up trading back into the
116
00:06:25,279 –> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: end of that first round to make sure that they
117
00:06:27,240 –> 00:06:30,960
Speaker 1: was able to get their guy, and Lamar Jackson eventually
118
00:06:32,440 –> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 1: superseded their number one quarterback at the time. But when
119
00:06:35,440 –> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: we talk about that photograph memory, how important it is
120
00:06:38,480 –> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 1: to take a snapshot of the defense, to be able
121
00:06:41,400 –> 00:06:43,280
Speaker 1: to come to the sideline and talk to your OC,
122
00:06:43,600 –> 00:06:46,720
Speaker 1: talk to your head coach about what the defense where
123
00:06:46,760 –> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 1: they were located right before the snap, and how that
124
00:06:50,800 –> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: throughout the play left guys in certain areas. And we
125
00:06:54,560 –> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 1: talked about how do you want to attack a defense
126
00:06:56,720 –> 00:06:59,800
Speaker 1: with that same offensive set when that same play as called,
127
00:07:00,080 –> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 1: you make an adjustment to a receiver or a a tight end,
128
00:07:02,640 –> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: and now you don’t have to go to the computer screen,
129
00:07:06,279 –> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 1: you don’t have to go to the grease board and
130
00:07:07,760 –> 00:07:09,560
Speaker 1: draw it up. You don’t have to go to each
131
00:07:09,600 –> 00:07:13,200
Speaker 1: position and make sure everybody’s on the same page, because
132
00:07:13,240 –> 00:07:17,520
Speaker 1: those type of adjustments you gotta make it halftime, Lamar Jackson,
133
00:07:17,600 –> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 1: Pat Mahomes, you can make adjustments on the fly because
134
00:07:21,200 –> 00:07:25,440
Speaker 1: they have that photographic memory. So we’re titling this defending
135
00:07:25,480 –> 00:07:28,440
Speaker 1: the Kingdom, two goats and a pasture and anticipation of
136
00:07:28,520 –> 00:07:31,800
Speaker 1: this Monday night football matchup between the Chiefs and the Ravens.
137
00:07:31,800 –> 00:07:35,240
Speaker 1: Speaking of goats, these headphones are the goat. These Bows
138
00:07:35,280 –> 00:07:37,640
Speaker 1: seven hundred headphones are fantastic. You can get him at
139
00:07:37,640 –> 00:07:42,040
Speaker 1: bows dot com, so check it out. But there’s one
140
00:07:42,080 –> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 1: thing they also have in common. And I had a
141
00:07:44,080 –> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: chance to talk to Pat about this. We’re gonna hear
142
00:07:46,320 –> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: from him in just a little bit, and the fact
143
00:07:48,640 –> 00:07:51,960
Speaker 1: that when you are the goat. We think Mahomes is
144
00:07:52,000 –> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 1: a goat. They think Lamar Jackson’s a goat. But just
145
00:07:56,440 –> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: when you have the way, you have to play every week,
146
00:08:00,520 –> 00:08:03,520
Speaker 1: like there is this pressure that both of them seem
147
00:08:03,600 –> 00:08:07,480
Speaker 1: to embrace. And we’re gonna hear Pat talking about that
148
00:08:07,560 –> 00:08:09,800
Speaker 1: he has great respect for Lamar Jackson. I think Lamar
149
00:08:09,880 –> 00:08:12,240
Speaker 1: has got a great respect for him. But just when
150
00:08:12,240 –> 00:08:15,200
Speaker 1: you’re the elite cat, you’ve got to bring it every
151
00:08:15,240 –> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: week and just learning that, understanding that, or dealing with
152
00:08:18,280 –> 00:08:21,120
Speaker 1: the dynamics of being that, well, talking about having a
153
00:08:21,160 –> 00:08:23,160
Speaker 1: target on your back, there’s no bigger target than being
154
00:08:23,200 –> 00:08:26,040
Speaker 1: the MVP. Everybody wants to sack the MVP. Everybody want
155
00:08:26,080 –> 00:08:28,800
Speaker 1: to bring into MVP, the whoever team has the number
156
00:08:28,800 –> 00:08:32,079
Speaker 1: one ranking. They want to use all those things as motivation.
157
00:08:32,360 –> 00:08:34,640
Speaker 1: And I was reading someplace where they talk about, you
158
00:08:34,679 –> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 1: know who has the greatest desire? Is it when you’re
159
00:08:37,400 –> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: at the top of the hill and you’re trying to
160
00:08:39,320 –> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 1: stay there, or as while you’re trying to climb that hill,
161
00:08:42,600 –> 00:08:46,840
Speaker 1: which route is the more hungry goat? And I think
162
00:08:47,280 –> 00:08:50,520
Speaker 1: today we’ve seen both of these guys are using different
163
00:08:50,600 –> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: levels of competition, different levels of mindset to remain so hungry,
164
00:08:56,920 –> 00:09:00,640
Speaker 1: so passionate because they’re chasing their own will believe is
165
00:09:00,720 –> 00:09:03,000
Speaker 1: that what everybody else sees him as being is that
166
00:09:03,800 –> 00:09:07,000
Speaker 1: the past awards or achievements, they both have set out
167
00:09:07,120 –> 00:09:10,640
Speaker 1: a goal in a bar and a standard. I think
168
00:09:10,679 –> 00:09:14,240
Speaker 1: it’s so much higher than anybody has even begin to
169
00:09:14,240 –> 00:09:16,960
Speaker 1: give them the respect for. And that’s what keeps both
170
00:09:16,960 –> 00:09:21,000
Speaker 1: of these guys, I’m definitely striged, reaching up higher and
171
00:09:21,080 –> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: higher for a higher run and keeps bothing playing at
172
00:09:23,880 –> 00:09:26,319
Speaker 1: such a high level even while everybody’s trying to pat
173
00:09:26,400 –> 00:09:28,960
Speaker 1: him on the back. Okay, I had a chance to
174
00:09:29,000 –> 00:09:32,720
Speaker 1: talk with Pat Mahomes earlier about this very subject, him
175
00:09:32,760 –> 00:09:36,560
Speaker 1: and Lamar Jackson, same field but facing the same challenges
176
00:09:36,600 –> 00:09:39,640
Speaker 1: week by week. Patrick, one question before I get into
177
00:09:39,640 –> 00:09:41,560
Speaker 1: why this is a big week for you, and that
178
00:09:41,720 –> 00:09:45,280
Speaker 1: is dealing with being MVP basically two years in a row,
179
00:09:45,600 –> 00:09:48,199
Speaker 1: and maybe what even Lamar Jackson’s dealing with this year.
180
00:09:48,320 –> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 1: He had a great first week as well, but just
181
00:09:51,360 –> 00:09:54,360
Speaker 1: taking that into any every week and knowing that yes,
182
00:09:54,440 –> 00:09:56,680
Speaker 1: you’ve got to be on it as a team, but
183
00:09:56,840 –> 00:09:59,360
Speaker 1: just carrying that into every week, knowing you’ve got to
184
00:09:59,400 –> 00:10:02,680
Speaker 1: be on your game. Yeah, I think you see that
185
00:10:02,679 –> 00:10:04,600
Speaker 1: you’re gonna get the best shot from every single team,
186
00:10:04,679 –> 00:10:06,880
Speaker 1: every single defense, every single team is gonna give your
187
00:10:07,120 –> 00:10:09,199
Speaker 1: best shot. They’re gonna try to do different game plan
188
00:10:09,320 –> 00:10:12,040
Speaker 1: stuff that they haven’t done against everyone else, and you
189
00:10:12,040 –> 00:10:13,800
Speaker 1: have to be able to make adjustments quickly. And so
190
00:10:14,320 –> 00:10:16,959
Speaker 1: I know that that the Ravens, everybody knows how good
191
00:10:16,960 –> 00:10:18,520
Speaker 1: they are, so they’re gonna they’re gonna get their best
192
00:10:18,520 –> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 1: shot from every single team they play. And I feel
193
00:10:20,160 –> 00:10:22,600
Speaker 1: like that’s as us the Chiefs. We know that every
194
00:10:22,640 –> 00:10:25,400
Speaker 1: single teams give us their best shot. And so just
195
00:10:25,440 –> 00:10:27,760
Speaker 1: having that mentality of every single week, you can’t take
196
00:10:27,760 –> 00:10:30,199
Speaker 1: a week off and relax. You have to be focused
197
00:10:30,200 –> 00:10:31,880
Speaker 1: and have that mentality of going out there with your
198
00:10:31,880 –> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: best football every single week. So Shot Pat acknowledges it,
199
00:10:35,840 –> 00:10:39,880
Speaker 1: he knowledges Lamar Jackson’s a great player, and so there’s
200
00:10:39,960 –> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 1: I think an understanding. Lamar was talking about Patrick last
201
00:10:42,600 –> 00:10:44,720
Speaker 1: year at the one oh one that these two guys
202
00:10:44,720 –> 00:10:48,400
Speaker 1: have immensed respect for each other. But again it’s just intriguing,
203
00:10:48,440 –> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 1: you know, the NFL for years. I also mentioned this
204
00:10:50,960 –> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: in the minute with Mitch than these two guys photographic memories.
205
00:10:54,080 –> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 1: The NFL has had these quarterback matchups since the beginning
206
00:10:56,720 –> 00:11:00,080
Speaker 1: of the league. Sid Lackman against Sammy Baugh, right, it
207
00:11:00,160 –> 00:11:04,800
Speaker 1: was United against Star and then Brady up against Manning.
208
00:11:04,800 –> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: But now we’ve got these two guys. And I know
209
00:11:07,000 –> 00:11:09,240
Speaker 1: there’s other great quarterbacks, and we got de Shaan Watson,
210
00:11:09,280 –> 00:11:11,200
Speaker 1: and we’ve got the older guys like Aaron Rodgers. But
211
00:11:11,280 –> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: these two, to me are set apart, and that’s why
212
00:11:15,280 –> 00:11:17,640
Speaker 1: this game has showed fashionating. Oh they are, they are,
213
00:11:17,720 –> 00:11:21,680
Speaker 1: but believe you me, there is a next Pat Mahomes
214
00:11:21,679 –> 00:11:24,760
Speaker 1: coming along. We talked about Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills.
215
00:11:24,920 –> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: He’s put up four hundred and some yards in Week two,
216
00:11:28,520 –> 00:11:31,640
Speaker 1: a lot of touchdowns. He has an amazing arm strength,
217
00:11:31,840 –> 00:11:34,720
Speaker 1: and I think from the mental side, he’s taken notes
218
00:11:35,000 –> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: on Pat and seeing what Pat has been doing as
219
00:11:37,040 –> 00:11:39,720
Speaker 1: far as that mental push. And then Lamar with his
220
00:11:40,320 –> 00:11:44,280
Speaker 1: capabilities of lousiveness. You talk about Kyla Murray in Arizona.
221
00:11:44,600 –> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 1: He is the next coming of Lamar. So even when
222
00:11:46,920 –> 00:11:51,200
Speaker 1: you think you’ve reset and involved this quarterback position, the
223
00:11:51,320 –> 00:11:54,680
Speaker 1: second you think that you’ve set on who the two
224
00:11:54,720 –> 00:11:57,400
Speaker 1: goats in the pasture. There are two baby goats right
225
00:11:57,440 –> 00:12:00,600
Speaker 1: across the looking across there and waiting they had fans
226
00:12:00,600 –> 00:12:03,280
Speaker 1: to get in that same pastor. But in these goats,
227
00:12:03,640 –> 00:12:05,840
Speaker 1: either the young goats or the baby goats, there is
228
00:12:05,880 –> 00:12:08,679
Speaker 1: one goat that has won the Super Bowl championship. And
229
00:12:08,720 –> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 1: that’s where Mahomes has the trump card in this discussion
230
00:12:11,360 –> 00:12:14,040
Speaker 1: to this point, Okay, to win that Super Bowl fifty
231
00:12:14,080 –> 00:12:16,200
Speaker 1: four title and to be the MVP of that game,
232
00:12:16,200 –> 00:12:18,720
Speaker 1: and basically to get that game out like he got
233
00:12:18,720 –> 00:12:21,280
Speaker 1: it out the entire season and showed discipline and toughness
234
00:12:21,760 –> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: to me, the next step. I don’t get your thoughts
235
00:12:23,520 –> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 1: on this. In studying, Lamar Jackson is in the passing
236
00:12:27,400 –> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: game because Tennessee and the Ravens they’ve got it. They’ve
237
00:12:30,880 –> 00:12:33,360
Speaker 1: got a recipe now for how they do things. They control,
238
00:12:33,640 –> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: they dictate things at the line of scrimmage. They’re like
239
00:12:36,240 –> 00:12:39,440
Speaker 1: playing a service Academy team. They’re gonna have the ball
240
00:12:39,480 –> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: all day. They’re gonna hit you hard when you’ve got
241
00:12:41,520 –> 00:12:45,320
Speaker 1: the ball. But Lamar Jackson, that ends out. He gets
242
00:12:45,320 –> 00:12:48,520
Speaker 1: ambushed in the playoffs by Tennessee. I’ll give Mike Vrabel
243
00:12:48,559 –> 00:12:49,800
Speaker 1: credit in that game, but it was like he was
244
00:12:49,840 –> 00:12:52,680
Speaker 1: setting his coverages to go inside out like a reverse
245
00:12:52,800 –> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 1: cloud technique. Here’s why. Last year, in throws of twenty
246
00:12:57,320 –> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 1: plus yards to the left side, this is Lamar Jackson
247
00:13:01,040 –> 00:13:04,559
Speaker 1: stats from Pro Football Focus, he was two out of fifteen.
248
00:13:05,160 –> 00:13:08,440
Speaker 1: This is twenty plus to the left side. Think of
249
00:13:08,440 –> 00:13:11,560
Speaker 1: where the wasp throw went by Patrick Mahomes in Super
250
00:13:11,600 –> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty four. That’s where this would be. And this
251
00:13:14,160 –> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: year so far he’s one of three. The middle of
252
00:13:17,080 –> 00:13:19,440
Speaker 1: the field is where and you alluded to this, whether
253
00:13:19,480 –> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 1: it seems to Hollywood Brown or Mark Andrews, this is
254
00:13:22,400 –> 00:13:26,240
Speaker 1: where he shines. Last year ten touchdowns in the middle
255
00:13:26,240 –> 00:13:29,240
Speaker 1: of the field, twenty plus to the right side, the
256
00:13:29,360 –> 00:13:32,959
Speaker 1: numbers go down again, eight to twenty two, only one
257
00:13:33,000 –> 00:13:35,520
Speaker 1: touchdown two hundred fifty yards. So far this year at
258
00:13:35,520 –> 00:13:37,880
Speaker 1: twenty five plus in the two games he’s had, he’s
259
00:13:37,920 –> 00:13:42,559
Speaker 1: completed two out of five. Now outside left and outside
260
00:13:42,640 –> 00:13:46,360
Speaker 1: right or where the next level of Lamar Jackson has
261
00:13:46,400 –> 00:13:49,600
Speaker 1: to be. The corner route, the double move, the fifty
262
00:13:49,640 –> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: four yard passed that Mahomes made to Tyreek Hill in
263
00:13:52,400 –> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 1: the Charger game, that’s where Lamar Jackson has to go next.
264
00:13:56,200 –> 00:13:58,840
Speaker 1: And to me and looking at them on video. They’re
265
00:13:58,880 –> 00:14:01,120
Speaker 1: trying to work on that for him. He’s been shocked
266
00:14:01,160 –> 00:14:03,880
Speaker 1: six times in two weeks. Because they know what he
267
00:14:03,880 –> 00:14:06,400
Speaker 1: can do. They’re trying to get in to do what
268
00:14:06,520 –> 00:14:09,280
Speaker 1: he knows he can do. For the next step. Yes, yes,
269
00:14:09,480 –> 00:14:12,640
Speaker 1: so as a as a play caller, the Baltimore Ravens
270
00:14:12,640 –> 00:14:16,240
Speaker 1: are now seeing the recipe of defense. If you want
271
00:14:16,240 –> 00:14:18,840
Speaker 1: to stop Lamar Jackson is to pack everybody in the middle.
272
00:14:19,360 –> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 1: Take away the running game by packing everybody, make the
273
00:14:21,840 –> 00:14:24,320
Speaker 1: runs going to the edge, because now you can force
274
00:14:24,400 –> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 1: him to the outer banl You can’t let a guy
275
00:14:26,920 –> 00:14:29,000
Speaker 1: go north and south to the end zone. Make him
276
00:14:29,000 –> 00:14:32,120
Speaker 1: go sideline and sideline, and then make sure your coverage
277
00:14:32,320 –> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: like you said it inside out. Force receivers to push
278
00:14:36,040 –> 00:14:38,280
Speaker 1: to the seven route, push the passes to go down
279
00:14:38,320 –> 00:14:42,720
Speaker 1: the sideline, force him to make accurate throws outside the numbers,
280
00:14:43,080 –> 00:14:44,920
Speaker 1: and then see if he can beat you. Because you know,
281
00:14:45,080 –> 00:14:48,360
Speaker 1: all day long, if you let the tight end, seam routes,
282
00:14:48,560 –> 00:14:51,400
Speaker 1: the running back, angle routes, anything that takes care of
283
00:14:51,400 –> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: that middle third of the field, he can hit those
284
00:14:54,480 –> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 1: passes all day long. And because he’s such a threat
285
00:14:58,080 –> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: to run the ball on the quarterback keep up the
286
00:15:00,680 –> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 1: middle on a quarterback suite that cuts back up the middle.
287
00:15:04,440 –> 00:15:07,560
Speaker 1: That also affects the integrity of your linebackers in your
288
00:15:07,560 –> 00:15:10,440
Speaker 1: safety in that middle third of the field. So he’s
289
00:15:10,480 –> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 1: threatening your middle third by the running game and didn’t
290
00:15:13,400 –> 00:15:15,280
Speaker 1: once you react to it, and now you have to
291
00:15:15,800 –> 00:15:19,640
Speaker 1: kind of retaliate back to pass coverage. Now the middle
292
00:15:19,680 –> 00:15:22,000
Speaker 1: opens up, and he’s able to just take his shots
293
00:15:22,040 –> 00:15:24,880
Speaker 1: down the middle, forcing to throw the ball to the outside,
294
00:15:25,200 –> 00:15:27,760
Speaker 1: force the running game to the outside, and then they’ll
295
00:15:27,800 –> 00:15:31,200
Speaker 1: see if the Baltimore Ravens are as vaulted as they appear. Yeah,
296
00:15:31,240 –> 00:15:33,120
Speaker 1: and tune your point. If you look at these numbers
297
00:15:33,120 –> 00:15:35,520
Speaker 1: and chunk it down a level like eleven to twenty
298
00:15:35,600 –> 00:15:38,240
Speaker 1: yards in the middle of the field, he is almost
299
00:15:38,240 –> 00:15:41,200
Speaker 1: I mean, he’s near perfect. His numbers are amazing there.
300
00:15:41,600 –> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: And so he’s so good at doing exactly what you’re doing.
301
00:15:44,800 –> 00:15:47,680
Speaker 1: The tight ends there, running backs, the crossing routes to
302
00:15:47,720 –> 00:15:51,000
Speaker 1: his receivers as centers, maybe Willie Steid the fourth. It’s
303
00:15:51,040 –> 00:15:53,440
Speaker 1: just the deep outside throws that we know mahomes Is
304
00:15:53,840 –> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: can make in his sleep. And that’s where Lamar Jackson
305
00:15:57,120 –> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: wants to prove and to go there next. These two
306
00:15:59,600 –> 00:16:02,040
Speaker 1: guys win. I mean, it’s amazing. Twenty one and three
307
00:16:02,080 –> 00:16:05,360
Speaker 1: as a starter for Lamar Jackson and for Patrick Mahomes.
308
00:16:05,400 –> 00:16:08,840
Speaker 1: He’s like twenty five and seven Mahomes in September. It’s
309
00:16:08,880 –> 00:16:12,880
Speaker 1: just it’s crazy. Twenty eight touchdowns, no picks. He’s never
310
00:16:12,920 –> 00:16:15,560
Speaker 1: lost a September game. And you ask, well, why is
311
00:16:15,600 –> 00:16:17,680
Speaker 1: that a big deal. That’s when everybody’s kind of healthy.
312
00:16:17,720 –> 00:16:20,280
Speaker 1: They’ve prepared for you. I mean, teams kind of wear
313
00:16:20,360 –> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 1: down in October and November because they’re losing guys to injury.
314
00:16:23,640 –> 00:16:26,920
Speaker 1: This is when people are fresh. He’s hitting people and
315
00:16:27,080 –> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: he’s started on the road. He’s won at Pittsburgh, he’s
316
00:16:29,240 –> 00:16:31,400
Speaker 1: won it gets the Chargers on the road now three
317
00:16:31,480 –> 00:16:35,520
Speaker 1: times in September, so these have not been easy games.
318
00:16:35,520 –> 00:16:37,880
Speaker 1: And he’s got another tough one meeting Patrick Mahomes going
319
00:16:37,960 –> 00:16:41,160
Speaker 1: up against Lamar Jackson. But when you look at these
320
00:16:41,160 –> 00:16:44,360
Speaker 1: two guys, they win now again, they do it two
321
00:16:44,400 –> 00:16:49,080
Speaker 1: different ways, but the fact of the matter is they win. Yeah.
322
00:16:49,160 –> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: La One might go down in the next five or
323
00:16:51,240 –> 00:16:54,680
Speaker 1: six years. Is one of the greatest regular season quarterbacks
324
00:16:54,720 –> 00:16:58,320
Speaker 1: that we’ve seen in this timeframe. Is because his style
325
00:16:58,360 –> 00:17:01,640
Speaker 1: of offense is so unique. There’s only three or four
326
00:17:01,680 –> 00:17:05,359
Speaker 1: teams that actually run that amount that has a quarterback
327
00:17:05,560 –> 00:17:08,119
Speaker 1: is able to run that amount of quarterback keeper plays
328
00:17:08,760 –> 00:17:11,440
Speaker 1: threaten you with the quarterback. Everybody else in the league
329
00:17:11,560 –> 00:17:15,200
Speaker 1: is a full spread, vertical passing game, little play action,
330
00:17:15,280 –> 00:17:18,360
Speaker 1: little screens, and it’s so much easier for a defense
331
00:17:18,880 –> 00:17:21,880
Speaker 1: to adjust the things you’re used to defend them. But then,
332
00:17:21,920 –> 00:17:24,080
Speaker 1: like you say, when you play Army Navy, you play
333
00:17:24,119 –> 00:17:28,800
Speaker 1: that military that military offense, and now it’s discipline, running game,
334
00:17:28,920 –> 00:17:32,760
Speaker 1: run gaps. Everybody, somebody’s on the quarterback, somebody’s on the pitch,
335
00:17:32,840 –> 00:17:36,600
Speaker 1: somebody’s going to dive. Then when they play action until pass,
336
00:17:36,640 –> 00:17:39,399
Speaker 1: where do you retreat to? You gotta be so pinpoint
337
00:17:39,440 –> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 1: when you’re defensive discipline in the past, play at the
338
00:17:43,440 –> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 1: pass game, and in the run game. When you’re not disciplined,
339
00:17:46,600 –> 00:17:49,000
Speaker 1: they don’t hit you for five, they go for fifty.
340
00:17:49,320 –> 00:17:51,159
Speaker 1: And that’s the thing they do. They just wear at you,
341
00:17:51,200 –> 00:17:54,679
Speaker 1: wear at, you wear at you, keep that possession of
342
00:17:55,359 –> 00:17:58,320
Speaker 1: time of possession in their favor and keep it out
343
00:17:58,320 –> 00:18:01,439
Speaker 1: of your offensives hands. Yeah, the other thing they do
344
00:18:01,560 –> 00:18:03,440
Speaker 1: well and they’ve done a great job of building around
345
00:18:03,560 –> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 1: Lamar with they’ve added guys. It’s impressive if they’re better
346
00:18:06,880 –> 00:18:09,160
Speaker 1: this year, I think in my opinion, they had JK.
347
00:18:09,359 –> 00:18:11,680
Speaker 1: Dobbins as another running back from Ohio State. They got
348
00:18:11,720 –> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: good young offensive lineman, and then the Chiefs have done
349
00:18:15,680 –> 00:18:19,000
Speaker 1: the same thing. They’ve built their team to accentuate pat
350
00:18:19,000 –> 00:18:21,439
Speaker 1: We’ve seen Clyde Edwards. Hilaire is a great example of that.
351
00:18:22,720 –> 00:18:25,879
Speaker 1: So it’s but you bring him an interesting point in
352
00:18:25,880 –> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 1: the fact that you have to this game. To me
353
00:18:28,480 –> 00:18:31,399
Speaker 1: and both of these head coaches, it’s the epitome of
354
00:18:31,480 –> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 1: discipline and toughness. If you’re going to play the Ravens,
355
00:18:34,560 –> 00:18:36,720
Speaker 1: you better be discipline and you’ll be you get to
356
00:18:36,760 –> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 1: be tough. Let me give you an example from last
357
00:18:39,000 –> 00:18:42,320
Speaker 1: year’s regular season game. Lamar Jackson was able to break
358
00:18:42,359 –> 00:18:45,000
Speaker 1: containment because Frank Clark got up the field too far
359
00:18:45,480 –> 00:18:48,359
Speaker 1: and he allowed him an inside lane that was easy.
360
00:18:48,600 –> 00:18:51,280
Speaker 1: He had blockers and there was not enough defenders. Frank
361
00:18:51,400 –> 00:18:53,520
Speaker 1: later in the game made an adjustment stop them on
362
00:18:53,560 –> 00:18:58,199
Speaker 1: a two point conversion like right after that. So the
363
00:18:58,359 –> 00:19:02,200
Speaker 1: containment pressure on the defense for the Chiefs in this game,
364
00:19:02,520 –> 00:19:04,119
Speaker 1: and we know the pressure for the Ravens is a
365
00:19:04,119 –> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: little bit different on the other side. But the fact
366
00:19:06,600 –> 00:19:09,640
Speaker 1: how disciplined and tough you have to be if you’re
367
00:19:09,680 –> 00:19:13,240
Speaker 1: a chief defensive player to play this offense and this guy, man,
368
00:19:13,280 –> 00:19:16,439
Speaker 1: you gotta decide. You gotta decide what is But what
369
00:19:16,480 –> 00:19:18,080
Speaker 1: are you gonna what are you willing to give up
370
00:19:18,520 –> 00:19:21,000
Speaker 1: you got? You gotta make a decision defensively. Do you
371
00:19:21,040 –> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: want to keep all eyes on the quarterback that means
372
00:19:23,920 –> 00:19:26,439
Speaker 1: you’re gonna be doing zone zone blitzes, or do you
373
00:19:26,440 –> 00:19:29,080
Speaker 1: want to play the receiver is so tight, so close
374
00:19:29,520 –> 00:19:32,680
Speaker 1: that you want to kind of test Lamar’s accuracy to
375
00:19:32,840 –> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: see if he has the arm that fitted in these
376
00:19:34,720 –> 00:19:37,159
Speaker 1: small windows. Then you go up and play man, and
377
00:19:37,240 –> 00:19:40,160
Speaker 1: you’re worried more about rerouting. But the second you play man,
378
00:19:40,600 –> 00:19:42,840
Speaker 1: you know that second level they turn their backs the
379
00:19:42,880 –> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 1: room with their receivers, and then if Lamar breaks through
380
00:19:45,920 –> 00:19:48,600
Speaker 1: that first line of defense, it’s like we’ve seen with
381
00:19:48,640 –> 00:19:51,399
Speaker 1: Pat it’s Katie Bardgate. And not only does he go
382
00:19:51,480 –> 00:19:54,320
Speaker 1: for first downs, this guy has the athleticism. If you
383
00:19:54,359 –> 00:19:57,000
Speaker 1: let him release into a secondary he can go for
384
00:19:57,040 –> 00:20:00,199
Speaker 1: a touchdown. So I believe the defensive is just you
385
00:20:00,200 –> 00:20:02,080
Speaker 1: gotta keep everything in front of you with Lamar. You
386
00:20:02,119 –> 00:20:04,600
Speaker 1: want everybody to have eyes on him, and when it
387
00:20:04,640 –> 00:20:06,760
Speaker 1: comes to him getting past a line of scrimmage, you
388
00:20:06,800 –> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: want two or three guys, maybe four, all taking shots
389
00:20:10,000 –> 00:20:12,159
Speaker 1: at him. He becomes a running back. You gotta take
390
00:20:12,200 –> 00:20:14,960
Speaker 1: your shot. You gotta make him a little bit hesitant
391
00:20:15,040 –> 00:20:17,679
Speaker 1: running the ball so that you can really play true
392
00:20:17,720 –> 00:20:21,600
Speaker 1: pass coverage. And then you know, from a schematic standpoint,
393
00:20:21,960 –> 00:20:24,919
Speaker 1: anything fourth down in less than three you gotta be
394
00:20:24,960 –> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: anticipating the Ravens are gonna go for it. So that
395
00:20:27,160 –> 00:20:30,600
Speaker 1: means on third and six most teams that’s an automatic pass.
396
00:20:30,640 –> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 1: Now nat with the Ravens, you gotta still be ready
397
00:20:33,119 –> 00:20:35,960
Speaker 1: for JK. Dobbins, ing Rooms or Lamar running the ball
398
00:20:36,000 –> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: on third and six to get themselves in a manageable
399
00:20:38,680 –> 00:20:40,600
Speaker 1: fourth down because they know they’re gonna go for it.
400
00:20:41,160 –> 00:20:45,639
Speaker 1: Last year, the Ravens went for a twenty four times
401
00:20:45,640 –> 00:20:48,520
Speaker 1: on fourth down, and I think the Chiefs went for
402
00:20:48,640 –> 00:20:52,640
Speaker 1: at ten twenty four times and made seventeen of them.
403
00:20:52,640 –> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 1: They were three or four against the Chiefs and fourth
404
00:20:54,680 –> 00:20:57,080
Speaker 1: down last year at Arrowhead, but the one they missed
405
00:20:57,840 –> 00:20:59,520
Speaker 1: at the middle of the field flipped the game in
406
00:20:59,560 –> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: the Chiefs favors. So it’s a little bit of a
407
00:21:01,119 –> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: risky move. The other thing is going for two. They
408
00:21:03,440 –> 00:21:06,359
Speaker 1: went for two three times in that game at Arrowhead
409
00:21:06,400 –> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 1: last year, Chiefs won by five. The Chiefs defend all
410
00:21:09,440 –> 00:21:11,879
Speaker 1: three of those two point conversions that would have been six.
411
00:21:12,320 –> 00:21:14,280
Speaker 1: That’s the difference of one point and the Ravens win
412
00:21:14,400 –> 00:21:16,520
Speaker 1: the game. So, yeah, you’re planning an unusual again. You’re
413
00:21:16,520 –> 00:21:19,760
Speaker 1: playing the Service academies when you’re playing these guys. Yeah,
414
00:21:19,760 –> 00:21:21,800
Speaker 1: and that’s when you have to rely on your offense.
415
00:21:21,840 –> 00:21:25,040
Speaker 1: You gotta you gotta believe offensively if you can try
416
00:21:25,080 –> 00:21:28,040
Speaker 1: to get out by two scores and try to break
417
00:21:28,080 –> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: their discipline to stay with their offense because they want
418
00:21:30,720 –> 00:21:32,679
Speaker 1: to run the ball, they want to control it. And
419
00:21:32,680 –> 00:21:34,640
Speaker 1: if you can force them to be down by ten
420
00:21:34,960 –> 00:21:37,640
Speaker 1: or fourteen points, well that makes them a little bit
421
00:21:37,720 –> 00:21:39,879
Speaker 1: less likely to go forward on fourth FAM because now
422
00:21:39,920 –> 00:21:42,360
Speaker 1: they’re chasing points. They gotta be a little bit more
423
00:21:42,600 –> 00:21:45,919
Speaker 1: hesitant about taking as many risks because they’re behind. But
424
00:21:45,960 –> 00:21:48,600
Speaker 1: as long as it’s even, as long as they’re ahead,
425
00:21:48,840 –> 00:21:51,440
Speaker 1: they’ll go forward on fourth FAM. You gotta be always
426
00:21:51,440 –> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 1: a ready with coach habballf for special teams, fakes, any
427
00:21:56,040 –> 00:21:59,080
Speaker 1: kind of adjustments like that. So just from from from
428
00:21:59,119 –> 00:22:02,960
Speaker 1: a ready ready stains, all three phases have three ready
429
00:22:03,000 –> 00:22:05,679
Speaker 1: for all kind of situations. When it comes to the fakes,
430
00:22:05,920 –> 00:22:08,760
Speaker 1: trick plays, going for it on fourth down, it’s just
431
00:22:08,840 –> 00:22:11,119
Speaker 1: not going to be your normal game, which makes it
432
00:22:11,160 –> 00:22:13,719
Speaker 1: one of the most exciting games playing this kind of
433
00:22:13,720 –> 00:22:16,000
Speaker 1: offense at this time of the season. Yeah, you just
434
00:22:16,040 –> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 1: described their Tennessee loss though, That’s what happened. They got
435
00:22:18,640 –> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: behind by two scores and now all of a sudden,
436
00:22:20,960 –> 00:22:23,240
Speaker 1: their whole grid had to change and they were off
437
00:22:23,320 –> 00:22:26,040
Speaker 1: kilter the rest of that game. Give Mike Rabels team credit. Okay,
438
00:22:26,080 –> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: two things before we close here, and thanks to the
439
00:22:28,400 –> 00:22:30,800
Speaker 1: folks at Bows for these Bows seven hundred headphones. You
440
00:22:30,840 –> 00:22:33,199
Speaker 1: can get yours at bows dot com. We’re kind of
441
00:22:33,200 –> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: coming up on the holidays. What a great holiday gift idea.
442
00:22:36,880 –> 00:22:39,320
Speaker 1: Two things one, though the Ravens also loved to take
443
00:22:39,320 –> 00:22:41,120
Speaker 1: it away. They’re up to their old tricks. They’re number
444
00:22:41,160 –> 00:22:44,119
Speaker 1: one in the NFL after two weeks with five takeaways.
445
00:22:44,160 –> 00:22:47,000
Speaker 1: They’ve also scored now on a takeaway, which is what
446
00:22:47,040 –> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 1: they did last year six times. We mentioned this go
447
00:22:49,880 –> 00:22:52,800
Speaker 1: back and find our summer podcasts, saying that the Chiefs
448
00:22:52,840 –> 00:22:55,719
Speaker 1: if they can get a little more explosiveness in their defense,
449
00:22:55,840 –> 00:23:01,080
Speaker 1: scoop and score pick six. It’s what Baltimore does. That’s
450
00:23:01,119 –> 00:23:03,960
Speaker 1: something they almost have to have shot. They didn’t get
451
00:23:03,960 –> 00:23:06,400
Speaker 1: that against Tennessee in the playoffs, and you can see
452
00:23:06,480 –> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 1: that takes them off their grit a bit. Yeah, that
453
00:23:08,760 –> 00:23:11,360
Speaker 1: definitely for them. It flips the scoreboard early in the game.
454
00:23:11,560 –> 00:23:14,240
Speaker 1: So they play a very you know with the coordinator Wink.
455
00:23:14,520 –> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 1: Wink is a very aggressive defensive amount of guy. He
456
00:23:16,840 –> 00:23:19,400
Speaker 1: will bring a lot of pressure. What you see down
457
00:23:19,520 –> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: field when you watch the All twenty two is you
458
00:23:21,520 –> 00:23:25,360
Speaker 1: see so many guys in man coverage not watching their man.
459
00:23:26,119 –> 00:23:29,240
Speaker 1: They are now wants the play develops there in man coverage,
460
00:23:29,240 –> 00:23:31,720
Speaker 1: but then the jump under their route to do what
461
00:23:32,480 –> 00:23:35,240
Speaker 1: Honey Badger has done so many times, come off from
462
00:23:35,280 –> 00:23:40,120
Speaker 1: every receiver in order to undercut intended receiver to make
463
00:23:40,119 –> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: a big play. You can use that against them in
464
00:23:42,840 –> 00:23:45,879
Speaker 1: some misdirection with pat with his looking off and no
465
00:23:46,040 –> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: looks and things like that. That can be a weapon
466
00:23:49,280 –> 00:23:53,119
Speaker 1: in the tool that Coachree can use to develop some
467
00:23:53,200 –> 00:23:55,920
Speaker 1: things where hey, if we get Marcus Peters covering an
468
00:23:55,920 –> 00:23:58,560
Speaker 1: out route, we know that seven is behind them. We
469
00:23:58,640 –> 00:24:01,919
Speaker 1: know he’ll he’ll try bade us and come to that
470
00:24:02,400 –> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: underneath that seven route, so that out route can break
471
00:24:04,880 –> 00:24:08,280
Speaker 1: back in and be wid open. Situations like that, you
472
00:24:08,280 –> 00:24:11,960
Speaker 1: can use their aggressiveness against them, and especially when it
473
00:24:11,960 –> 00:24:14,720
Speaker 1: comes to the screen game, that would be amazing aspect.
474
00:24:14,800 –> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: I think on Monday Night Football, it’s gonna be a
475
00:24:17,840 –> 00:24:21,359
Speaker 1: clash of the Titans. Like you say, uh, we’re gonna
476
00:24:21,440 –> 00:24:24,359
Speaker 1: We’re gonna see these shoot goats, button heads all fighting
477
00:24:24,400 –> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 1: for that same little nugget of grass. But it reminds
478
00:24:28,040 –> 00:24:31,040
Speaker 1: us so much like the NBA when you’re talking about Giannis,
479
00:24:31,200 –> 00:24:35,680
Speaker 1: Lebron and Kawuhi, those all three guys can honestly say
480
00:24:35,720 –> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: they’re the goat right now of the NBA. Lamar and
481
00:24:40,400 –> 00:24:42,720
Speaker 1: Pat can both say they have a right to say
482
00:24:42,720 –> 00:24:45,800
Speaker 1: they’re the goat of the NFL right now. Yeah, to
483
00:24:45,880 –> 00:24:47,680
Speaker 1: your point on the on the whole thing, the eighty
484
00:24:47,720 –> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 1: three are touchdown passed last year that McCole Hardman was
485
00:24:50,359 –> 00:24:52,160
Speaker 1: able to read a blitz and get a big play.
486
00:24:52,840 –> 00:24:55,520
Speaker 1: His fourth down conversion Mahomes had in the game in eighteen.
487
00:24:55,880 –> 00:24:58,879
Speaker 1: His no look passing eighteen all came against these guys
488
00:24:59,200 –> 00:25:01,000
Speaker 1: so it’s interesting you say that, and we’re going to
489
00:25:01,040 –> 00:25:03,840
Speaker 1: close it out this way because of these two kickers.
490
00:25:03,880 –> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 1: This is now the number one and number two kicker
491
00:25:05,720 –> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now, justin Tucker’s of the Ravens
492
00:25:09,080 –> 00:25:12,639
Speaker 1: is the most accurate kicker in the NFL history one
493
00:25:12,720 –> 00:25:14,320
Speaker 1: hundred and one year history of the league. But here
494
00:25:14,320 –> 00:25:17,919
Speaker 1: comes Butler Man. He’s chasing him in a hurry. I
495
00:25:18,000 –> 00:25:21,560
Speaker 1: did a Kingdom conversations this week with Matt McMullen on
496
00:25:21,600 –> 00:25:23,719
Speaker 1: our High VHI Sinshutters show, and I said, I made
497
00:25:23,760 –> 00:25:27,240
Speaker 1: the analogy of these two kickers of playing the Royals
498
00:25:27,640 –> 00:25:29,480
Speaker 1: when they were in fourteen and fifteen when they had
499
00:25:29,480 –> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 1: that unbelievable bullpen. You’re only playing six inning games. Again,
500
00:25:32,720 –> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: if you don’t have the lead after six innings, you’re
501
00:25:34,880 –> 00:25:37,399
Speaker 1: done because seven, eight and nines going to those guys.
502
00:25:37,920 –> 00:25:40,679
Speaker 1: Here’s these two kickers. If it’s the two minute warning
503
00:25:41,280 –> 00:25:43,680
Speaker 1: inside of two minutes or laid in the game, you’re
504
00:25:43,760 –> 00:25:46,480
Speaker 1: playing a sixty yard field, not one hundred yards with
505
00:25:46,520 –> 00:25:49,760
Speaker 1: these guys, because Bucker and this dude can bang sixty
506
00:25:49,840 –> 00:25:52,240
Speaker 1: yard field goals. Now all of a sudden is a defense.
507
00:25:52,280 –> 00:25:54,879
Speaker 1: If you’re up too and you’re trying to hold these guys.
508
00:25:55,160 –> 00:25:58,080
Speaker 1: It changes a whole dynamic these both these guys could
509
00:25:58,160 –> 00:26:00,520
Speaker 1: win this game with a sixty plus yard field goal.
510
00:26:01,000 –> 00:26:03,400
Speaker 1: If you had to show me only the last two
511
00:26:03,440 –> 00:26:06,560
Speaker 1: minutes before the half, the last two minutes of the game,
512
00:26:06,640 –> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: and then overtime, I would say the two kickers combined
513
00:26:10,920 –> 00:26:14,119
Speaker 1: with determine the outcome of the game without seeing anything
514
00:26:14,119 –> 00:26:16,600
Speaker 1: else that happen. That’s how crucial these two guys are
515
00:26:16,600 –> 00:26:19,560
Speaker 1: gonna be the last two minutes before half, the last
516
00:26:19,600 –> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: two minutes of the game, and then if this game
517
00:26:21,600 –> 00:26:25,920
Speaker 1: goes to overtime, we hope to lose and be able
518
00:26:25,920 –> 00:26:28,199
Speaker 1: to have a second just like last week, because when
519
00:26:28,240 –> 00:26:30,440
Speaker 1: you have a kicker with this dynamic of the leg,
520
00:26:30,800 –> 00:26:32,359
Speaker 1: the last thing you want to do is be the
521
00:26:32,359 –> 00:26:35,000
Speaker 1: person that scores first, because then it puts all the
522
00:26:35,240 –> 00:26:38,240
Speaker 1: onners everybody on who gets its second is going to
523
00:26:38,280 –> 00:26:40,240
Speaker 1: be the person to be able to decide the outcome
524
00:26:40,280 –> 00:26:41,800
Speaker 1: of the game, whether to go for it until they
525
00:26:41,800 –> 00:26:44,200
Speaker 1: need to touchdown or just tie it up. These two
526
00:26:44,560 –> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 1: field goal kickers are gonna be so phenomenal in this
527
00:26:47,119 –> 00:26:49,640
Speaker 1: ball game because both defenses, I think have a chance
528
00:26:49,640 –> 00:26:52,840
Speaker 1: of getting a lot of stock stops. Wants to feel shrinks.
529
00:26:53,119 –> 00:26:54,840
Speaker 1: So either got to go over the top and score
530
00:26:54,920 –> 00:26:58,359
Speaker 1: quick or the Ravens break up a run and go quick.
531
00:26:58,640 –> 00:27:00,360
Speaker 1: By the time you get to the fifty yard line,
532
00:27:00,400 –> 00:27:02,919
Speaker 1: you’ll see both offenses. I think get a little conservative
533
00:27:03,160 –> 00:27:05,600
Speaker 1: because it’s almost like they got three points in the bank.
534
00:27:05,960 –> 00:27:08,880
Speaker 1: Once they get to the forty yard line. It’s gonna
535
00:27:08,920 –> 00:27:11,360
Speaker 1: be awesome. There’s just a lot of storylines of this game.
536
00:27:11,400 –> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: And he read loves these kind of games. Man, he

555
00:28:07,200 –> 00:28:09,359
Speaker 1: tools to make sure I can make sure to defend
