Speaker 1: to give all of our condolences to you and your
23
00:01:15,400 –> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 1: family because Bill Barber aka Smoke, the outstanding man from Richmond, Virginia,
24
00:01:26,480 –> 00:01:29,480
Speaker 1: passed away this week. Your dad, and our hearts are
25
00:01:29,520 –> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: heavy for you, my friend, and we’ll just dedicate these
26
00:01:34,720 –> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: next several minutes to him and his memory and maybe
27
00:01:36,680 –> 00:01:39,400
Speaker 1: the rest of the year. Just know you’re hurting, but
28
00:01:39,920 –> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: sorry about that. But it sounds like he lived a
29
00:01:42,959 –> 00:01:45,240
Speaker 1: terrific life and the Lord blessed him. He did man,
30
00:01:45,319 –> 00:01:47,320
Speaker 1: he did, Man, he was. He was fortunate enough to
31
00:01:47,360 –> 00:01:50,280
Speaker 1: set a legacy and a standard for me to live by,
32
00:01:50,760 –> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: and I passed that on to my kids and hopefully
33
00:01:53,320 –> 00:01:55,840
Speaker 1: they’ll pass on their kids. And we talk about generational wealth,
34
00:01:57,280 –> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: just a dedication of hard work, understanding why means to persevere, sacrifice,
35
00:02:02,120 –> 00:02:04,240
Speaker 1: and understand what it means to be have integrity and
36
00:02:04,320 –> 00:02:07,560
Speaker 1: be accountable. Those type of things are priceless. Can’t pay
37
00:02:07,640 –> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: for him, you can’t buy him. You just got to
38
00:02:09,639 –> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: help to have somebody in life that can show you
39
00:02:11,800 –> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: how to live a certain way. And he was. His
40
00:02:15,400 –> 00:02:18,359
Speaker 1: spirit is solid, he knows where he belongs. He knows
41
00:02:18,400 –> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 1: where his eternal home is. Is that the right side
42
00:02:21,200 –> 00:02:23,600
Speaker 1: of our father up in the heavens. And so he’ll
43
00:02:23,639 –> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 1: be waiting there, talking to our ancestors, waiting for waiting
44
00:02:26,639 –> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 1: for me to get there one day to reunite with him.
45
00:02:28,960 –> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 1: But yes, my my heart is heavy right now, but
46
00:02:32,200 –> 00:02:35,560
Speaker 1: my soul is so excited for what the entire kingdom,
47
00:02:35,600 –> 00:02:38,519
Speaker 1: the amount of love, the amount of condolences, all the
48
00:02:38,680 –> 00:02:43,679
Speaker 1: heartfelt just from the entire Chief’s kingdom. I appreciate it.
49
00:02:43,760 –> 00:02:46,919
Speaker 1: I’m humbled. I thank you. But his legacy will live on.
50
00:02:47,720 –> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: I don’t know if the Lord has seven on seven drills.
51
00:02:50,520 –> 00:02:53,960
Speaker 1: Did it sounds like smoke’s gonna be in those your
52
00:02:54,040 –> 00:02:57,120
Speaker 1: dad’s smoke Florida and m for the rattlers. I’m guessing
53
00:02:57,160 –> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: he smoked because he smoked by some poor dude from Bethune.
54
00:02:59,600 –> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 1: Cook My Tyrie killed it against the Buccaneers. Yeah, we
55
00:03:03,320 –> 00:03:05,320
Speaker 1: talked about the cheetah before the Cheatah. You know, back
56
00:03:05,360 –> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 1: in those days, they didn’t go by a bunch of nicknames.
57
00:03:07,240 –> 00:03:08,919
Speaker 1: It’s just hey man. They saw, they said, when he
58
00:03:09,000 –> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 1: runs sometimes you saw smoke behind his feet when he
59
00:03:11,040 –> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 1: kicked up the dirts. I guess he went back to
60
00:03:13,200 –> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 1: the Moniker Smoke Barber, and he was a wide receiver
61
00:03:15,880 –> 00:03:18,280
Speaker 1: for a CFL for a number of years. I had
62
00:03:18,320 –> 00:03:20,839
Speaker 1: a shot in the pros for he heard his leg
63
00:03:21,000 –> 00:03:22,480
Speaker 1: and back in those days, when he hurt your leg,
64
00:03:22,520 –> 00:03:25,200
Speaker 1: that was it. So his career was short. But then
65
00:03:25,200 –> 00:03:27,640
Speaker 1: he went into coaching, coaching Richard, Virginia for a number
66
00:03:27,639 –> 00:03:29,720
Speaker 1: of years for a school called Maggie Walker which was
67
00:03:29,800 –> 00:03:33,160
Speaker 1: a combination school back in the day. And and didn’t
68
00:03:33,280 –> 00:03:35,280
Speaker 1: served some time in the military. Like I said, met
69
00:03:35,360 –> 00:03:38,640
Speaker 1: my mom and had a beautiful family in Richmond, Virginia,
70
00:03:38,680 –> 00:03:41,880
Speaker 1: and tried his best to do his best. I’m not
71
00:03:42,000 –> 00:03:45,400
Speaker 1: a perfect man by any means, but it was definitely
72
00:03:45,560 –> 00:03:47,800
Speaker 1: a guy could look up to and try to mentor
73
00:03:47,880 –> 00:03:51,120
Speaker 1: my own work habits after this, just then, none of
74
00:03:51,200 –> 00:03:54,640
Speaker 1: us are perfect, and I was sure would have met Smoke,
75
00:03:54,800 –> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 1: but we remember him, and our hearts are heavy for you.
76
00:03:58,640 –> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: That’s always a void considering all the circumstances. All right,
77
00:04:02,480 –> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: let’s get into our discussions. We go to Miami the
78
00:04:04,800 –> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 1: side of Super Bowl fifty four, so we’ll be some
79
00:04:07,200 –> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: good vibes going back into that place. But why we’re
80
00:04:10,440 –> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 1: saying this is your idea playoffs, playoffs, because the next
81
00:04:14,120 –> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 1: two weeks it’s going to feel a little bit like
82
00:04:16,760 –> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 1: the playoffs before the playoffs. That’s kind of has become,
83
00:04:20,760 –> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 1: especially for the Chiefs. All Right, we know the Chiefs
84
00:04:23,360 –> 00:04:26,200
Speaker 1: are in the playoffs seven times in eight years under
85
00:04:26,279 –> 00:04:29,240
Speaker 1: Andy Reid. Phenomenal. If they win this week, they’ll wrap
86
00:04:29,360 –> 00:04:33,400
Speaker 1: up their fifth consecutive AFC West championship. That’s going to
87
00:04:33,480 –> 00:04:37,200
Speaker 1: tie an all time divig with the seventies Raiders and
88
00:04:37,320 –> 00:04:40,200
Speaker 1: then the Broncos of the past decade with the decade
89
00:04:40,200 –> 00:04:43,320
Speaker 1: prior to this one with Peyton Manning. That being said,
90
00:04:43,480 –> 00:04:46,560
Speaker 1: two quality opponents on the road. But let’s talk about
91
00:04:46,600 –> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 1: this Dolphins team first of all, there we’ll go into
92
00:04:49,480 –> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: the playoffs. I’m not so sure Brian Flores is not
93
00:04:52,640 –> 00:04:54,960
Speaker 1: my NFL Coach of the Year this year. He has
94
00:04:55,000 –> 00:04:57,920
Speaker 1: done a phenomenal job with his team because, brother, I’m
95
00:04:58,000 –> 00:05:01,080
Speaker 1: telling you, they can play some defense. Yeah, they play defense,
96
00:05:01,200 –> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 1: and they also control the ball. They have a great
97
00:05:03,839 –> 00:05:07,640
Speaker 1: running game. And the funny thing about their running game
98
00:05:07,760 –> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: is you never know who’s the running back they gotta.
99
00:05:09,640 –> 00:05:11,920
Speaker 1: They gotta a slew of running backs and they just
100
00:05:12,080 –> 00:05:16,080
Speaker 1: keep rotating whoever’s whoever’s healthy, whoever’s one hundred percent, whoever’s
101
00:05:16,080 –> 00:05:18,000
Speaker 1: well arrested. They put them in the backfield and that
102
00:05:18,160 –> 00:05:22,520
Speaker 1: guy runs with the intensity and the same mantra pound
103
00:05:22,600 –> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 1: and ground, ground and pound as the first guy. So
104
00:05:25,720 –> 00:05:27,479
Speaker 1: they have a number of guys in that backfield, they
105
00:05:27,480 –> 00:05:29,680
Speaker 1: can get downhill, run the ball, and if they can
106
00:05:29,720 –> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 1: control the tempo, and when I say to the tempo,
107
00:05:32,320 –> 00:05:35,160
Speaker 1: they can control the clock, and they can control the
108
00:05:35,240 –> 00:05:37,560
Speaker 1: first down. They control the sticks. They make sure they
109
00:05:37,640 –> 00:05:40,000
Speaker 1: stay out of third and long. First and second down
110
00:05:40,040 –> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 1: are so heavy rundowns because they want to make sure
111
00:05:42,920 –> 00:05:45,800
Speaker 1: that they put their quarterback whether’s Fitzpatrick or Tour, in
112
00:05:45,880 –> 00:05:48,120
Speaker 1: a great position to be able to be successful in
113
00:05:48,200 –> 00:05:50,960
Speaker 1: third down. And they definitely love to what we call
114
00:05:51,400 –> 00:05:54,040
Speaker 1: swing the field. They don’t want to start their their
115
00:05:54,120 –> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: defense in the middle of the field. They want to
116
00:05:56,080 –> 00:05:59,200
Speaker 1: plant you back deep, deep in your in your own
117
00:05:59,320 –> 00:06:02,840
Speaker 1: territory and to try to get a short field for
118
00:06:02,920 –> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 1: their offense. And so it’s a it’s a mentality in
119
00:06:05,800 –> 00:06:10,760
Speaker 1: a way. He’s definitely got a defensive minded mindset, very aggressive,
120
00:06:11,120 –> 00:06:13,720
Speaker 1: but he’s creating a family and those guys fight for
121
00:06:13,839 –> 00:06:16,840
Speaker 1: one another, and we saw it last week against the
122
00:06:17,160 –> 00:06:19,040
Speaker 1: Cincinnati Bengals, when it was time for one of them
123
00:06:19,400 –> 00:06:21,720
Speaker 1: to fight, they always ready to fight. You took a
124
00:06:21,760 –> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: shot at their return man. Everybody came off the bench,
125
00:06:24,760 –> 00:06:27,600
Speaker 1: including coach Flores, who was one of the first people
126
00:06:27,640 –> 00:06:29,960
Speaker 1: to come to the other sideline and called bus for
127
00:06:30,080 –> 00:06:32,600
Speaker 1: what it was, taking shots to the guy trying to
128
00:06:32,680 –> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 1: feel the punt. That’s no place for that in the NFL,
129
00:06:35,560 –> 00:06:38,359
Speaker 1: and the Bengals as an organizations should be ashamed of themselves.
130
00:06:39,279 –> 00:06:41,719
Speaker 1: There’s several things to get your attention about this team,
131
00:06:42,360 –> 00:06:44,599
Speaker 1: and let me give you one of them. They’re number
132
00:06:44,640 –> 00:06:47,120
Speaker 1: one in the NFL and third down defense. That’s number one,
133
00:06:47,200 –> 00:06:49,240
Speaker 1: not in the FC East, not in the FC, in
134
00:06:49,320 –> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: the NFL National Football League one. They are all so outstanding.
135
00:06:54,680 –> 00:06:57,000
Speaker 1: They have five red zone takeaways. That’s number one in
136
00:06:57,040 –> 00:06:58,680
Speaker 1: the league. That’s what the Chiefs did last year. They
137
00:06:58,720 –> 00:07:00,640
Speaker 1: had the same number of takeaways in the red zone.
138
00:07:01,040 –> 00:07:04,679
Speaker 1: It’s the Dolphins this year, but they’re only allowing thirty
139
00:07:04,720 –> 00:07:09,320
Speaker 1: two percent on third down conversions, which is phenomenal. Another
140
00:07:09,400 –> 00:07:11,600
Speaker 1: thing that gets your attention about this defense. In the
141
00:07:11,720 –> 00:07:14,800
Speaker 1: last eight weeks, they had the number one defense in
142
00:07:14,960 –> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 1: scoring defense in the NFL giving up just fourteen points
143
00:07:18,200 –> 00:07:21,000
Speaker 1: a game. The other thing in digging into Brian Flores
144
00:07:21,000 –> 00:07:23,520
Speaker 1: a little bit, he was with the Patriots for fifteen years.
145
00:07:23,920 –> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: And what’s interesting here, shop, he’s kind of trying to
146
00:07:26,320 –> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: become the first Patriot disciple to make it. These other
147
00:07:29,800 –> 00:07:33,040
Speaker 1: guys are just flaming out like a you know, looking
148
00:07:33,080 –> 00:07:36,080
Speaker 1: at a shooting star. Not this guy. This guy kind
149
00:07:36,080 –> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: of gets your attention. And he’s also game planned. I
150
00:07:38,720 –> 00:07:41,679
Speaker 1: worked on a game plan against Andy Reid and Patrick
151
00:07:41,760 –> 00:07:45,360
Speaker 1: Mahomes because he was on that Patriot staff in eighteen
152
00:07:45,400 –> 00:07:47,280
Speaker 1: that played in the AC Championship game and during the
153
00:07:47,360 –> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 1: regular season in seventeen eighteen. So you take all that
154
00:07:49,840 –> 00:07:53,120
Speaker 1: into account, and this feels like kind of a playoff
155
00:07:53,200 –> 00:07:55,800
Speaker 1: game before the playoffs. Yeah, he’s a young man, but
156
00:07:55,880 –> 00:07:58,520
Speaker 1: he’s a bright man. You gotta believe that being a
157
00:07:58,560 –> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 1: part of that defensive staff was so many years he
158
00:08:02,360 –> 00:08:05,960
Speaker 1: defenses be created. He has to has seen defensive philosophies
159
00:08:05,960 –> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: come out of just come out of thin air when
160
00:08:08,000 –> 00:08:10,840
Speaker 1: Belichick has put it together to stop a team with
161
00:08:10,960 –> 00:08:13,360
Speaker 1: an awesome tight end on an awesome running game or
162
00:08:13,360 –> 00:08:17,080
Speaker 1: awesome passing game and facing a mobile quarterback. So he
163
00:08:17,240 –> 00:08:20,560
Speaker 1: knows all the ingredients of how to dictate on his
164
00:08:20,640 –> 00:08:23,960
Speaker 1: side of the ball defense, how you’re going to attack him.
165
00:08:24,240 –> 00:08:26,320
Speaker 1: And he doesn’t give you anything. He takes from you
166
00:08:26,440 –> 00:08:28,880
Speaker 1: what he wants and he leaves something on the bone
167
00:08:28,920 –> 00:08:30,680
Speaker 1: for you if you’re willing to take it. And that’s
168
00:08:30,800 –> 00:08:33,720
Speaker 1: usually the checkdown. He doesn’t give things on the back end.
169
00:08:33,760 –> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 1: He doesn’t give the deep pass up. He makes you
170
00:08:35,880 –> 00:08:38,440
Speaker 1: hold the ball. He gives you the checkdown. But then
171
00:08:38,480 –> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: they come up and they tackle. They’re a sure tackling
172
00:08:41,679 –> 00:08:44,559
Speaker 1: defensive ball team that plays very aggressive, and they have
173
00:08:44,679 –> 00:08:47,480
Speaker 1: guys that can get pressure on the quarterback. So all around,
174
00:08:47,600 –> 00:08:51,840
Speaker 1: that’s gonna be a very tough, very tough eleven guys
175
00:08:51,880 –> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 1: that you’re gonna be battling against. But if there’s an
176
00:08:54,040 –> 00:08:56,959
Speaker 1: offense it is ever built to be able to go
177
00:08:57,200 –> 00:09:02,000
Speaker 1: against an elite defense, it’s the Chiefs offense because we
178
00:09:02,120 –> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: can run pass, play action, pass, hitch a deep middle
179
00:09:05,840 –> 00:09:09,440
Speaker 1: or underneath, and everybody who grabs the ball for us
180
00:09:09,520 –> 00:09:12,000
Speaker 1: has the potential of breaking it for a home running
181
00:09:12,040 –> 00:09:16,680
Speaker 1: going all the way, especially Tyreek Hill. These guys remind
182
00:09:16,760 –> 00:09:19,120
Speaker 1: me of the Chiefs in twenty thirteen and twenty fourteen,
183
00:09:19,120 –> 00:09:22,679
Speaker 1: they’re building. They had eleven draft picks Shop eleven. They
184
00:09:22,760 –> 00:09:26,160
Speaker 1: had the most salary cap room to spend, and these
185
00:09:26,240 –> 00:09:28,320
Speaker 1: guys used it. Man, they were smart. Kyle van Nor,
186
00:09:28,440 –> 00:09:31,000
Speaker 1: they got some veterans they picked up from New England.
187
00:09:31,040 –> 00:09:33,040
Speaker 1: They kind of cherry picked New England a little bit.
188
00:09:33,440 –> 00:09:35,719
Speaker 1: But they’re just a young bunch of young guys. But
189
00:09:35,800 –> 00:09:38,319
Speaker 1: they also take the ball away. They have twenty one takeaways.
190
00:09:38,640 –> 00:09:41,719
Speaker 1: Only Pittsburgh has more. And Xabian Howard at leading the
191
00:09:41,840 –> 00:09:45,160
Speaker 1: lead with eight picks, Oh, was that an admiration? Not
192
00:09:45,320 –> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: so No. In twenty eighteen he led the league with seven.
193
00:09:48,360 –> 00:09:52,240
Speaker 1: The dudes a ballhawk, so to me. It may not
194
00:09:52,400 –> 00:09:54,920
Speaker 1: be cast this way around the league by the national puntents,
195
00:09:55,360 –> 00:09:58,319
Speaker 1: but you have maybe the most interesting matchup of the
196
00:09:58,520 –> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 1: week with the Chiefs offense, the best in the league
197
00:10:02,240 –> 00:10:04,439
Speaker 1: against the Dolphins that I could argue, if it’s not
198
00:10:04,600 –> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 1: the best in the league, it’s in the top three.
199
00:10:06,600 –> 00:10:08,640
Speaker 1: And you know the thing I love about that cornerback
200
00:10:08,679 –> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: Howard is that unlike when we had Marcus Peters here.
201
00:10:11,960 –> 00:10:15,720
Speaker 1: Marcus Peters was a very undisciplined player, but he did
202
00:10:15,840 –> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 1: create a lot of turnovers. He was great at stripping
203
00:10:17,720 –> 00:10:20,439
Speaker 1: the ball. He’s great at jumping other people’s routes, but
204
00:10:20,679 –> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 1: his aggressiveness and his undisciplined the way he played the
205
00:10:24,559 –> 00:10:28,920
Speaker 1: position sometimes was used against us. People could a game
206
00:10:29,000 –> 00:10:31,920
Speaker 1: plan of him coming off a guy, double move his
207
00:10:32,080 –> 00:10:34,880
Speaker 1: guy something in his area and give up big plays.
208
00:10:34,920 –> 00:10:37,680
Speaker 1: And we’re seeing that that’s also happening at the Ravens
209
00:10:37,760 –> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: right now with Marcus Peters. Now now David Howard is
210
00:10:40,760 –> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 1: a very detailed, orientating He reminds me a lot of
211
00:10:44,080 –> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 1: a young Gilmore, Stephan Gilmore. The way he goes about
212
00:10:47,800 –> 00:10:50,880
Speaker 1: preparing and playing his game. It’s all about film study.
213
00:10:50,960 –> 00:10:55,199
Speaker 1: He watches splits, he watches formations. He’s watching when the
214
00:10:55,280 –> 00:10:57,599
Speaker 1: breaks are happening, and he’s loves to be in his
215
00:10:57,679 –> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: own coverage where he can keep his eyes on the
216
00:10:59,720 –> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 1: court back and get great breaks on the ball. The
217
00:11:02,440 –> 00:11:05,160
Speaker 1: one thing we have our quarterback is able to look
218
00:11:05,200 –> 00:11:07,760
Speaker 1: one way and throw the other. So sometimes when you’re
219
00:11:07,800 –> 00:11:11,280
Speaker 1: trying to read the eyes of one Pat Mahomes, sometimes
220
00:11:11,400 –> 00:11:13,640
Speaker 1: his eyes lie to you and gives us a big
221
00:11:13,679 –> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 1: play the other way. You’re saying that we might have
222
00:11:16,800 –> 00:11:19,720
Speaker 1: used Marcus Peters aggression against him if we were excuse
223
00:11:19,800 –> 00:11:24,079
Speaker 1: me playing against him now? To me, then this the
224
00:11:24,240 –> 00:11:27,199
Speaker 1: defense to the Chiefs, it’s incumbent upon them. You mentioned
225
00:11:27,240 –> 00:11:30,320
Speaker 1: the Dolphins kind of resourceful. They got Kasecki. We love him,
226
00:11:30,400 –> 00:11:33,560
Speaker 1: he made the catch to you know, knock the Patriots
227
00:11:33,600 –> 00:11:36,000
Speaker 1: out of having the bye last year. And we love
228
00:11:36,080 –> 00:11:37,439
Speaker 1: fitz Magic, who is going to be over in the
229
00:11:37,480 –> 00:11:39,959
Speaker 1: sideline watching to a play. But this is a team
230
00:11:40,040 –> 00:11:42,160
Speaker 1: near the bottom in big place. They just don’t get
231
00:11:42,200 –> 00:11:44,719
Speaker 1: a lot of big plays. Not that they can’t. I
232
00:11:44,760 –> 00:11:46,559
Speaker 1: mean you look at jachiem Grant, you go down the
233
00:11:46,640 –> 00:11:49,640
Speaker 1: line with Damante Parker and such. But it’s just not
234
00:11:49,760 –> 00:11:52,200
Speaker 1: a team that’s they just got grind it out, stay
235
00:11:52,280 –> 00:11:54,760
Speaker 1: on the field, which is you know, we saw Carolina drive.
236
00:11:54,800 –> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: The Chiefs fits with that. But if the Chiefs defense,
237
00:11:58,120 –> 00:11:59,839
Speaker 1: do they not need to take command of this game?
238
00:12:00,320 –> 00:12:02,480
Speaker 1: Get these guys off the field, flip the field in
239
00:12:02,480 –> 00:12:06,000
Speaker 1: the Chiefs regard, but really take charge in this game defensively.
240
00:12:06,040 –> 00:12:09,080
Speaker 1: If you’re the Chiefs man, we definitely need to because
241
00:12:09,640 –> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 1: what we understand, what I understand what the Mammy Dolphins
242
00:12:12,480 –> 00:12:16,160
Speaker 1: is they played to the advantage or they played to
243
00:12:16,280 –> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 1: the style of the quarterback. And so when two is
244
00:12:19,000 –> 00:12:21,120
Speaker 1: in there because he’s a young guy. They don’t try
245
00:12:21,160 –> 00:12:24,920
Speaker 1: to overload them. It’s a run run pass, short downs,
246
00:12:25,040 –> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 1: young run run pass for the first downs. They want
247
00:12:27,480 –> 00:12:31,160
Speaker 1: to keep everything really short, reading one side of the field,
248
00:12:31,240 –> 00:12:34,079
Speaker 1: making these easy reads as possible, trying to do pick
249
00:12:34,160 –> 00:12:36,719
Speaker 1: plays or flood zone. Hey, whichever one of these three
250
00:12:36,760 –> 00:12:39,600
Speaker 1: guys is open to hit him for first down, don’t, don’t,
251
00:12:39,600 –> 00:12:41,319
Speaker 1: don’t try to go attack down the field. Let’s just
252
00:12:41,440 –> 00:12:44,800
Speaker 1: keep the ball well. Fitz Magic is the opposite. That’s
253
00:12:44,840 –> 00:12:48,559
Speaker 1: when Preston Williams and Parker and Keim Grant, those deep
254
00:12:48,600 –> 00:12:50,560
Speaker 1: threats become alive, and you see it in their eyes.
255
00:12:50,640 –> 00:12:53,440
Speaker 1: When when When when they know Fitzpatrick is under center,
256
00:12:53,679 –> 00:12:56,560
Speaker 1: those receivers are fixing their gloves and getting themselves ready
257
00:12:56,600 –> 00:12:58,560
Speaker 1: to get down the field because they know he’s gonna
258
00:12:58,559 –> 00:13:01,400
Speaker 1: release it deep early and all. And then the running
259
00:13:01,440 –> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 1: game becomes secondary. And so I believe that’s why as
260
00:13:04,160 –> 00:13:07,160
Speaker 1: a head coach, he made the move to tour because
261
00:13:07,200 –> 00:13:10,719
Speaker 1: I think Toa’s mentality kind of fits his personality a
262
00:13:10,800 –> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: little bit better as a defensive minded first type play call.
263
00:13:14,920 –> 00:13:16,840
Speaker 1: As far as as as far as the head coach
264
00:13:17,160 –> 00:13:22,880
Speaker 1: and Fitzpatrick’s kind of riverboat gambling, living on the edge,
265
00:13:23,120 –> 00:13:25,440
Speaker 1: always ready to go down field. I think that made
266
00:13:25,520 –> 00:13:27,839
Speaker 1: him nervous. It got him and even though one of
267
00:13:27,840 –> 00:13:30,480
Speaker 1: a bunch of ball games when he felt Tour was ready,
268
00:13:30,679 –> 00:13:32,360
Speaker 1: he was quick to make that move. It didn’t They
269
00:13:32,480 –> 00:13:35,199
Speaker 1: wasn’t worried about that record where they wasn’t the playoffs standing.
270
00:13:35,520 –> 00:13:38,440
Speaker 1: He really wants to to take control of that offense
271
00:13:38,559 –> 00:13:40,839
Speaker 1: and played that ball control style because they think it
272
00:13:40,880 –> 00:13:43,400
Speaker 1: gives him a better chance with the solid defense he’s
273
00:13:43,400 –> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 1: trying to play. Yeah, I don’t know Coach Floyd’s haven’t
274
00:13:45,960 –> 00:13:47,880
Speaker 1: been around it, but I’ve been impressed with him and
275
00:13:48,000 –> 00:13:49,960
Speaker 1: I think he’s doing a hector And we talked like Carolina,
276
00:13:50,080 –> 00:13:51,880
Speaker 1: if you’re buying Stark in the team in the next
277
00:13:51,960 –> 00:13:54,959
Speaker 1: five years, you might look at I’m telling you the Dolphins.
278
00:13:55,080 –> 00:13:57,480
Speaker 1: They got two first round picks again next year shot
279
00:13:58,679 –> 00:14:02,280
Speaker 1: and they’re less slow in oppos. So it’s interesting to watch.
280
00:14:02,840 –> 00:14:05,880
Speaker 1: To a couple more things here again this Defending the
281
00:14:05,960 –> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: Kingdom podcast. We’re calling it playoffs playoffs only because it
282
00:14:10,480 –> 00:14:12,959
Speaker 1: feels like the playoffs before the playoffs. These next two
283
00:14:13,000 –> 00:14:15,680
Speaker 1: weeks and we’ll talk about the Saints when they’re the Saints.
284
00:14:16,000 –> 00:14:17,880
Speaker 1: It’s the Dolphins center stage here, and there’s a lot
285
00:14:17,960 –> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 1: on the line. Chiefs have never been twelve and one
286
00:14:20,080 –> 00:14:23,160
Speaker 1: ever sixty one years, never been twelve and one. That
287
00:14:23,280 –> 00:14:25,560
Speaker 1: can happen if they beat the Dolphins this week. And
288
00:14:25,720 –> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 1: of course, this whole race with the Steelers plus the
289
00:14:28,680 –> 00:14:30,960
Speaker 1: Chiefs can wrap up the division. Mentioned that, and there’s
290
00:14:31,040 –> 00:14:34,280
Speaker 1: race with the Steelers continues. The Dolphins and Bills are
291
00:14:34,400 –> 00:14:36,920
Speaker 1: challenging for that division. They’ve been locked in the basement
292
00:14:37,000 –> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: like Shawshank for twenty years by the Patriots. Well, I
293
00:14:41,640 –> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 1: said this, it’s like Andy dfraine getting through the poop pipe.
294
00:14:45,120 –> 00:14:47,800
Speaker 1: They’re out, and they are they’re setting here, but they’re
295
00:14:47,840 –> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 1: out with each other. Now. It’s like Morgan Freeman getting
296
00:14:50,120 –> 00:14:54,680
Speaker 1: out and they’re both getting out the same time. They’re
297
00:14:54,760 –> 00:14:56,600
Speaker 1: racing each other. So there’s a lot on the line
298
00:14:56,800 –> 00:14:58,560
Speaker 1: for the Dolphins as well. But I want to ask
299
00:14:58,640 –> 00:15:02,480
Speaker 1: you two are being left handed? He’s right now, I’m
300
00:15:02,480 –> 00:15:05,240
Speaker 1: trying to think, really the only prominent cornerback that’s left handed?
301
00:15:05,560 –> 00:15:07,240
Speaker 1: And did you play in the same division when you’re
302
00:15:07,280 –> 00:15:10,680
Speaker 1: at the Eagles, was Mike with the Falcons? End Yes? Okay,
303
00:15:10,960 –> 00:15:14,040
Speaker 1: So to me, Mike vick Is is a good example
304
00:15:14,160 –> 00:15:16,840
Speaker 1: here maybe of a comparison. Does the left handed thing
305
00:15:16,920 –> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 1: going into play a fear of defender? I think it does.
306
00:15:19,720 –> 00:15:21,360
Speaker 1: It’s just the rotation of the ball. So once the
307
00:15:21,440 –> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: ball is in the air and you’re talking about being
308
00:15:23,480 –> 00:15:26,280
Speaker 1: able to adjust to a deep bass, especially the safeties,
309
00:15:26,320 –> 00:15:28,000
Speaker 1: if you’re trying to adjust a ball in the air
310
00:15:28,080 –> 00:15:30,680
Speaker 1: and a deep ball, you know, you know from playing baseball,
311
00:15:30,680 –> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 1: it’s it’s the way the ball tails. It always has
312
00:15:32,760 –> 00:15:34,400
Speaker 1: a tail that goes one way to the other. A
313
00:15:34,520 –> 00:15:36,840
Speaker 1: left handed ball with that left handed rotation, it rotates
314
00:15:36,880 –> 00:15:39,280
Speaker 1: a different way. And so on a deep balls you
315
00:15:39,360 –> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: just gotta be ready obviously the ball and come out
316
00:15:42,400 –> 00:15:44,120
Speaker 1: and it’s going to go right to left where most
317
00:15:44,160 –> 00:15:46,880
Speaker 1: balls go left to right, and so from a deep
318
00:15:46,920 –> 00:15:49,520
Speaker 1: ball atmosphere, you really want to make sure you don’t
319
00:15:49,640 –> 00:15:52,880
Speaker 1: overrun and allow wide receivers to kind of cross your
320
00:15:52,920 –> 00:15:55,680
Speaker 1: face going from the right side to the left side.
321
00:15:56,000 –> 00:15:57,880
Speaker 1: And so I know that that probably sounds like a lot,
322
00:15:57,960 –> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: but if you just an image, if you imagine seeing
323
00:16:01,200 –> 00:16:04,240
Speaker 1: a football rotating out of a left hand, all right,
324
00:16:04,320 –> 00:16:07,000
Speaker 1: it’s coming out, you throw it, it’s coming out. That way,
325
00:16:07,080 –> 00:16:09,480
Speaker 1: that way, that way, that way, as as opposed to
326
00:16:09,520 –> 00:16:12,120
Speaker 1: the right handed guys quarterback ball going that way. It’s
327
00:16:12,160 –> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: just the way the ball is going to drift, especially
328
00:16:14,000 –> 00:16:17,960
Speaker 1: on deep balls anything shorter than twenty yards. Man, he’s
329
00:16:18,000 –> 00:16:20,560
Speaker 1: ball the thrown on the laser is not going to imagine.
330
00:16:20,800 –> 00:16:22,760
Speaker 1: It’s just those deep threats where you got to worry
331
00:16:22,760 –> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: about the ball floating and then receivers running routes, running
332
00:16:26,440 –> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: under routes knowing that’s going to drift a little bit
333
00:16:28,840 –> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: to the left side of the field. It’s really interesting.
334
00:16:31,800 –> 00:16:34,040
Speaker 1: There’s a I mean, I’m fascinated by the game this week.
335
00:16:34,600 –> 00:16:37,000
Speaker 1: There’s a lot to unpack with it. Now, let’s go
336
00:16:37,080 –> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 1: into more of a global thought here, because we’re talking
337
00:16:39,640 –> 00:16:43,080
Speaker 1: about the playoffs. Before the playoffs December Football mentioned there’s
338
00:16:43,080 –> 00:16:47,080
Speaker 1: a lot on the line here. Let’s look at some
339
00:16:47,240 –> 00:16:48,920
Speaker 1: history here. A couple of times, and this isn’t going
340
00:16:48,960 –> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 1: to be flattering history. One you were involved in and
341
00:16:51,520 –> 00:16:53,720
Speaker 1: another one that it was coach Read’s first year after
342
00:16:53,760 –> 00:16:57,400
Speaker 1: the nine and believe me, after two and fourteen to
343
00:16:57,520 –> 00:17:00,200
Speaker 1: go nine and oh was the shawshank feeling again out
344
00:17:00,240 –> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: of the poop pipe? All right? It was like, wow,
345
00:17:02,320 –> 00:17:04,399
Speaker 1: this is different. This is cool. I’m headed to the
346
00:17:04,440 –> 00:17:06,639
Speaker 1: bank and getting my money and I’m going to San Juantano.
347
00:17:06,920 –> 00:17:11,080
Speaker 1: All right, all right. Still, the Chiefs in December that
348
00:17:11,200 –> 00:17:15,000
Speaker 1: year kind of faltered. It was they played some really
349
00:17:15,040 –> 00:17:18,920
Speaker 1: good teams, losing to the Colts. Chargers were good that year,
350
00:17:19,200 –> 00:17:21,480
Speaker 1: beat him that Jira a year A two two guys
351
00:17:21,480 –> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: still seem making the catch and not that I remember
352
00:17:23,880 –> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: his name, but the other one was Oz three and
353
00:17:27,320 –> 00:17:29,800
Speaker 1: you were in the middle of that the Chiefs. That’s
354
00:17:29,840 –> 00:17:32,159
Speaker 1: the only other time the Chiefs has started eleven one
355
00:17:32,240 –> 00:17:34,600
Speaker 1: and you were on that team that year and this
356
00:17:34,760 –> 00:17:36,919
Speaker 1: year that’s it. But there wasn’t a twelve and one
357
00:17:37,000 –> 00:17:38,840
Speaker 1: that year there was a loss and loss of three
358
00:17:38,880 –> 00:17:41,560
Speaker 1: of the last four going down the stretch. So the
359
00:17:41,680 –> 00:17:44,760
Speaker 1: point here is, yeah, there’s a lot here, but how
360
00:17:44,880 –> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: much is their importance in the playoffs before the playoffs
361
00:17:48,880 –> 00:17:51,600
Speaker 1: and just tearing up December, which coach Reid has done
362
00:17:51,680 –> 00:17:54,159
Speaker 1: for the most part. Five and oh and seventeen won
363
00:17:54,240 –> 00:17:57,040
Speaker 1: the division, salvage the season. Five and oh last year
364
00:17:57,119 –> 00:18:00,639
Speaker 1: got the bye. What about rolling in deer to roll
365
00:18:00,720 –> 00:18:03,080
Speaker 1: you into when you really want to roll man. We
366
00:18:03,160 –> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: talk about building teams and how seasons and schedules play
367
00:18:06,480 –> 00:18:10,119
Speaker 1: a part. I believe if you ask any head coach
368
00:18:10,600 –> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: if you could go on a winning streak of eight games,
369
00:18:13,600 –> 00:18:14,960
Speaker 1: do you want it to be the start of the
370
00:18:15,040 –> 00:18:16,520
Speaker 1: season or the end? Do you want the first and
371
00:18:16,600 –> 00:18:19,240
Speaker 1: second quarter to go undefeated or do you want the last,
372
00:18:19,280 –> 00:18:22,080
Speaker 1: the third and fourth quarter going defeated. I think, hands
373
00:18:22,160 –> 00:18:24,880
Speaker 1: down nine and half coaches they’re taking the second half
374
00:18:24,880 –> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 1: of the season because you need to be building and growing.
375
00:18:28,359 –> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: They’re okay with some hiccups and losses early in the season.
376
00:18:31,440 –> 00:18:33,960
Speaker 1: Everybody’s learning how to communicate and fill out one another.
377
00:18:35,080 –> 00:18:39,200
Speaker 1: You’ve got different guys beside you. The offensive lineup, the
378
00:18:39,640 –> 00:18:42,040
Speaker 1: D line and O line are being mashed up like
379
00:18:42,160 –> 00:18:45,520
Speaker 1: mash units because the injuries in the season, especially those
380
00:18:46,040 –> 00:18:49,840
Speaker 1: last four games. Everybody’s getting healthy. You’re starting to know
381
00:18:50,160 –> 00:18:52,680
Speaker 1: what you know about each other, and you’ve already called
382
00:18:52,720 –> 00:18:55,359
Speaker 1: everything you know where your your budd’s bread. You know
383
00:18:55,440 –> 00:18:58,679
Speaker 1: what This team is a three step or RPO as
384
00:18:58,720 –> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: a daily hill running team, it’s play action boots. Whatever
385
00:19:01,760 –> 00:19:04,800
Speaker 1: you do your best, everybody knows about it, and so
386
00:19:05,000 –> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 1: can you go out there and execute even when the
387
00:19:08,000 –> 00:19:10,840
Speaker 1: other team know what’s coming. I hear coach the enemy.
388
00:19:10,880 –> 00:19:13,720
Speaker 1: It’s like a hearing my sleep. Sometimes we gotta run
389
00:19:13,800 –> 00:19:16,760
Speaker 1: the ball even when they know we’re running. That’s the
390
00:19:16,920 –> 00:19:20,359
Speaker 1: sign of a great offense defensive. It doesn’t matter what
391
00:19:20,480 –> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 1: you know about us. We’re coming downhill. We’re gonna take
392
00:19:23,880 –> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: this game from you. We don’t need you to give
393
00:19:25,520 –> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: us anything. Don’t give us an inch because we’re coming
394
00:19:28,240 –> 00:19:31,080
Speaker 1: with the mindset if we’re gonna take this victory. And
395
00:19:31,320 –> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: let’s go back when you said about the left handed
396
00:19:33,040 –> 00:19:37,520
Speaker 1: quarterback again, my college coach jumped into my mind. It said, stop, Sean, Stop.
397
00:19:37,680 –> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: You didn’t mention the bootleg. Because when you think about
398
00:19:40,520 –> 00:19:43,119
Speaker 1: a quarterback booting right handed guy’s boot out to the
399
00:19:43,160 –> 00:19:46,440
Speaker 1: defenses left, whereas a left handed quarterback boots out to
400
00:19:46,480 –> 00:19:49,880
Speaker 1: the defenses right. And so you got to prepare each week.
401
00:19:50,320 –> 00:19:53,439
Speaker 1: The defense has to be retrained of what other keys
402
00:19:53,880 –> 00:19:55,800
Speaker 1: and who would pick up on the bootleg. That’s a
403
00:19:55,840 –> 00:19:57,719
Speaker 1: whole other side of the field. It hasn’t gotten much
404
00:19:57,720 –> 00:20:00,000
Speaker 1: action to that because there’s not many left handed quarterback.
405
00:20:00,760 –> 00:20:02,400
Speaker 1: I love it when you give me stuff to ask
406
00:20:02,520 –> 00:20:05,440
Speaker 1: bags one on one with him. We have it before
407
00:20:05,480 –> 00:20:08,560
Speaker 1: the game. That’s a really interest to him. Particularly the
408
00:20:08,560 –> 00:20:10,800
Speaker 1: Boot game because I think of Mike Vick again, how
409
00:20:10,840 –> 00:20:12,800
Speaker 1: awesome he wasn’t that Boot game we had that run
410
00:20:12,840 –> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 1: pass option like that dude was lethal. And just because
411
00:20:15,840 –> 00:20:18,560
Speaker 1: you’re you’re, you know, eating peas with the left hand
412
00:20:18,640 –> 00:20:21,959
Speaker 1: like you’re, it’s thrown you off. But this whole thing
413
00:20:22,000 –> 00:20:24,040
Speaker 1: of trying to, you know, have some momentum. You mentioned
414
00:20:24,040 –> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: the run game. We always in December’s run game time
415
00:20:27,640 –> 00:20:29,760
Speaker 1: at times, and people are disappointed. Hey, third and less
416
00:20:29,760 –> 00:20:31,879
Speaker 1: than a yard couldn’t punch it in last week. But
417
00:20:32,160 –> 00:20:34,480
Speaker 1: one thing I really saw that was encouraging sign for me.
418
00:20:34,640 –> 00:20:37,040
Speaker 1: Shop was maybe for the first time since the Buffalo
419
00:20:37,119 –> 00:20:40,240
Speaker 1: game back in October, people overlooked this. In that game
420
00:20:40,359 –> 00:20:42,600
Speaker 1: last week against the Broncos, the Chiefs got the ball,
421
00:20:42,680 –> 00:20:44,639
Speaker 1: got the stop, but the Broncos had three timeouts in
422
00:20:44,680 –> 00:20:46,959
Speaker 1: the two minute warning. Kansas City got the ball at
423
00:20:47,000 –> 00:20:51,520
Speaker 1: the fifteen yard line their own fifteen all right, they
424
00:20:51,680 –> 00:20:54,520
Speaker 1: moved the ball. Do will I mean Daryl Williams was
425
00:20:54,600 –> 00:20:58,840
Speaker 1: running like it was Christian Nikoya the offensive line. Remember
426
00:20:58,880 –> 00:21:01,200
Speaker 1: I see these games from Google Earth. I’m thirteen stories
427
00:21:01,200 –> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 1: above the field. I saw a push Dana, and I
428
00:21:03,880 –> 00:21:07,040
Speaker 1: saw a push of two to three yards when Dwill
429
00:21:07,119 –> 00:21:09,320
Speaker 1: got it. Now he’s getting three more. That’s six if
430
00:21:09,359 –> 00:21:12,280
Speaker 1: you keep contracting home. So from the fifteen to the
431
00:21:12,440 –> 00:21:15,600
Speaker 1: thirty it burned up all of Denver’s timeouts and the
432
00:21:15,680 –> 00:21:18,720
Speaker 1: two minute warning and added to the lead. Yes, six
433
00:21:18,840 –> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 1: and not seven, I get it. But Locke had no time.
434
00:21:23,000 –> 00:21:25,159
Speaker 1: He had one oh four something really undone is go
435
00:21:25,280 –> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: down the field in a two minute like that with
436
00:21:26,800 –> 00:21:29,800
Speaker 1: no timeouts. And so to me that was an encouraging sign.
437
00:21:29,840 –> 00:21:32,280
Speaker 1: And how big was it that the Chiefs team said,
438
00:21:33,080 –> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: not necessarily Tampa Bay, like we’re going to take the
439
00:21:35,320 –> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: ball and go hometime you get no more football. It
440
00:21:38,320 –> 00:21:42,679
Speaker 1: was though, flipping it, changing it and basically setting up
441
00:21:42,720 –> 00:21:44,560
Speaker 1: the last act of the play. If you look at
442
00:21:44,600 –> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 1: a coach’s playbook, right, sometimes all the reds are run,
443
00:21:47,960 –> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 1: all the passes are green or whatever the color code combination. Now,
444
00:21:51,600 –> 00:21:53,960
Speaker 1: when you talk about four minute offense, that means you
445
00:21:54,040 –> 00:21:56,360
Speaker 1: got the lead is less than four minutes, and can
446
00:21:56,520 –> 00:21:59,159
Speaker 1: you possess the ball and run out the clock to
447
00:21:59,240 –> 00:22:02,879
Speaker 1: win the ball game? That play sheet is ninety percent rehead.
448
00:22:03,240 –> 00:22:05,800
Speaker 1: You want to clock running? You want to I mean
449
00:22:06,440 –> 00:22:08,200
Speaker 1: you’re in the point in the game where you’re letting
450
00:22:08,240 –> 00:22:11,760
Speaker 1: that offensive line. You know, you have control of this game.
451
00:22:12,080 –> 00:22:13,800
Speaker 1: If you get us a first down and we can
452
00:22:13,880 –> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: run this ball and I have to put it up
453
00:22:15,560 –> 00:22:17,200
Speaker 1: in the air and don’t give them a chance to
454
00:22:17,280 –> 00:22:20,439
Speaker 1: sack us or intercept it, you actually control the end
455
00:22:20,440 –> 00:22:23,040
Speaker 1: of this ball game. It’s your destiny. Go make it happen.
456
00:22:23,520 –> 00:22:26,920
Speaker 1: It’s run after run, it’s so heavy run and the
457
00:22:27,000 –> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: fact that they went from the fifteen yard line, it’s
458
00:22:28,840 –> 00:22:30,960
Speaker 1: blocked the field. Even get us in field goal range
459
00:22:31,000 –> 00:22:33,399
Speaker 1: to put more points on the board with the primary
460
00:22:33,680 –> 00:22:36,320
Speaker 1: mindset of you know, we’re running it and boom boo boom,
461
00:22:36,320 –> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 1: it’s still coming downhill. It’s still coming down here. That
462
00:22:39,200 –> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 1: is what Eric B. Enemy is telling these guys, preaching
463
00:22:42,280 –> 00:22:44,520
Speaker 1: to them, and they’re getting it from Andy. They’re getting
464
00:22:44,520 –> 00:22:47,720
Speaker 1: it from Andy. Heck, they’re getting it from Eric B.
465
00:22:47,880 –> 00:22:50,960
Speaker 1: Enemy And even the wide receiver coach Greg Lewis, he’s
466
00:22:51,000 –> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: letting the receivers know this is when you need to
467
00:22:53,000 –> 00:22:54,600
Speaker 1: go block. You need to get you need to go
468
00:22:54,720 –> 00:22:57,840
Speaker 1: block down field. It’s all hands on board. We gotta go,
469
00:22:57,960 –> 00:23:00,360
Speaker 1: we gotta go, we gotta go. And you gotta love
470
00:23:00,480 –> 00:23:04,120
Speaker 1: that type of mentality, especially as the season gets late,
471
00:23:04,440 –> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 1: and like you said, man like like like, it’s so
472
00:23:06,840 –> 00:23:08,960
Speaker 1: important to be able to run and control the football
473
00:23:09,320 –> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: late in ball games, when teams are trying to get
474
00:23:11,640 –> 00:23:14,480
Speaker 1: back in it. You have a lead protective league. Run
475
00:23:14,560 –> 00:23:18,359
Speaker 1: the ball, control the rock, and burn up clock. All right,
476
00:23:18,400 –> 00:23:22,040
Speaker 1: here we go, playoffs, playoffs, sits, the playoffs before the playoffs.
