Speaker 1: Absolutely And a reminder of these Bows headphones. These are

Speaker 1: and no more romantic gaff I’ll give the hint to

23
00:01:14,319 –> 00:01:18,720
Speaker 1: Ellie say, wink wink wink. I think my man Matt

24
00:01:18,760 –> 00:01:21,119
Speaker 1: Stack could use a pair of these bows seven hundreds.

25
00:01:21,160 –> 00:01:24,040
Speaker 1: But they’re fantastic. Yeah, I need my pairm jealous looking

26
00:01:24,040 –> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: at you right now. Let’s look awesome matphones right now. Yeah,

27
00:01:28,680 –> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: they actually give you a massage while you’re doing I mean,

28
00:01:30,840 –> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 1: I’ve never seen anything like this, so I’m getting a

29
00:01:32,720 –> 00:01:35,559
Speaker 1: full body massage. All right. Let’s get into a couple

30
00:01:35,640 –> 00:01:38,800
Speaker 1: things here our main topics. The first will be what

31
00:01:38,800 –> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: we’re calling the Andy Reid Coaching Academy, because to me,

32
00:01:42,680 –> 00:01:44,880
Speaker 1: it’s one of the subtle stories. Once again, like we’re

33
00:01:44,959 –> 00:01:46,880
Speaker 1: on defending the Kingdom, we’d like to jump into those

34
00:01:46,880 –> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: stories that where you kind of dig in a little deeper.

35
00:01:50,640 –> 00:01:53,440
Speaker 1: Fourteen teams are in the playoffs this year. Matt six,

36
00:01:53,560 –> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: including the Chiefs, obviously have a direct influence from Andy Reid.

37
00:01:58,920 –> 00:02:03,440
Speaker 1: Half the field almost are Andy Reid disciples or being influenced,

38
00:02:03,800 –> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 1: and to me it is a symbol of his greatness.

39
00:02:06,880 –> 00:02:09,120
Speaker 1: He’s fifth in the NFL and wins We know that

40
00:02:09,360 –> 00:02:12,240
Speaker 1: if you look at the four ahead of him, you’re like, WHOA, Okay,

41
00:02:12,240 –> 00:02:14,519
Speaker 1: that’s a pretty good company. But those four ahead of

42
00:02:14,600 –> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 1: him have also had their disciples and had an imprint

43
00:02:17,240 –> 00:02:20,440
Speaker 1: on the National Football League. I just think it’s fascinating

44
00:02:20,480 –> 00:02:21,960
Speaker 1: that when you look at the guys that are in

45
00:02:22,000 –> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: the playoffs, they hit many half of them basically are

46
00:02:25,160 –> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: most almost half have studied under the tutelage of Andy Reid.

47
00:02:29,040 –> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: That’s what’s so impressive about it. It’s not just a

48
00:02:30,919 –> 00:02:33,000
Speaker 1: great coaching tree. We know there’s lots of head coaches

49
00:02:33,040 –> 00:02:35,240
Speaker 1: and assistant coaches in the NFL that have benefited from

50
00:02:35,240 –> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 1: Coach Reid’s mentorship, but it’s also guys in the playoffs.

51
00:02:38,360 –> 00:02:40,480
Speaker 1: It’s guys finding success. We talk a lot about the

52
00:02:40,480 –> 00:02:42,680
Speaker 1: Bill Belichick coaching tree. Those guys don’t find a lot

53
00:02:42,680 –> 00:02:45,560
Speaker 1: of success often. Coach reads disciples always seem to and

54
00:02:46,000 –> 00:02:48,880
Speaker 1: I think what’s so interesting about his disciples isn’t just

55
00:02:48,960 –> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: the creativity and their play calling. We know he’s a

56
00:02:51,280 –> 00:02:53,359
Speaker 1: great play caller, probably the best play caller of all time,

57
00:02:53,560 –> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 1: and we see his creativity all over the league, not

58
00:02:55,800 –> 00:02:58,200
Speaker 1: just the guys that coached under him, Like a lot

59
00:02:58,200 –> 00:03:00,359
Speaker 1: of times they’re watching a football game, you see player

60
00:03:00,480 –> 00:03:03,240
Speaker 1: like ah, that’s a coach read play, but it’s also

61
00:03:03,320 –> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 1: his steady hand. I think is what really permeates throughout

62
00:03:06,560 –> 00:03:08,359
Speaker 1: the league and with the guys that have coached under him.

63
00:03:08,919 –> 00:03:11,600
Speaker 1: You think about twenty fifteen with this Chiefs team. They

64
00:03:11,639 –> 00:03:14,040
Speaker 1: start one in five and then they win eleven games

65
00:03:14,080 –> 00:03:16,120
Speaker 1: after that to make the playoffs and win a playoff game.

66
00:03:16,400 –> 00:03:18,720
Speaker 1: It’s not easy to do that. It’s actually very difficult.

67
00:03:18,720 –> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 1: A lot of teams crumble when they start one in

68
00:03:21,040 –> 00:03:23,480
Speaker 1: five or one in six or whatever, and they fall apart.

69
00:03:23,520 –> 00:03:25,519
Speaker 1: While coach Reid has a steady hand, never too high

70
00:03:25,520 –> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 1: and never too low. He powers through things and guys

71
00:03:28,600 –> 00:03:30,760
Speaker 1: rally around him, and he never loses a locker room,

72
00:03:30,800 –> 00:03:33,200
Speaker 1: never loses a coaching staff, People never lose hope around him,

73
00:03:33,240 –> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 1: and you’re seeing that with the disciples he has around

74
00:03:35,360 –> 00:03:38,560
Speaker 1: the league. So think about in Baltimore with Harbaugh, that

75
00:03:38,680 –> 00:03:41,000
Speaker 1: Ravens team. The Wheels looked like they’re about to fall off.

76
00:03:41,040 –> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: I mean, Lamar Jackson was on the COVID list. They’re

77
00:03:43,240 –> 00:03:45,440
Speaker 1: losing a bunch of close games. But what do they do?

78
00:03:45,680 –> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 1: They win five straight and make the playoffs after losing

79
00:03:48,040 –> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 1: four or five middle of this season. So really impressive there.

80
00:03:50,640 –> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 1: The Washington football team with Ron Rivera, they begin the

81
00:03:53,440 –> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: season two and seven. They’ve issues at quarterback, they don’t

82
00:03:56,040 –> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: know who is going to be the quarterback of the

83
00:03:57,640 –> 00:04:00,800
Speaker 1: future with a Dwayne Haskins situation. But Alex old Friend

84
00:04:00,840 –> 00:04:04,360
Speaker 1: goes there amazing comeback for him, and Rivera and Smith

85
00:04:04,440 –> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 1: together lead this team to a seven and nine record.

86
00:04:07,160 –> 00:04:08,960
Speaker 1: NFC East has struggled this year, we know that, but

87
00:04:09,000 –> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: still that’s good enough in that division to make the playoffs.

88
00:04:11,040 –> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 1: So really impressive there. Then with Matt Nagee in Chicago,

89
00:04:14,120 –> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: they lose sticks straight in the middle of the season.

90
00:04:16,480 –> 00:04:19,119
Speaker 1: People were talking about he might be fired, the Mitchell

91
00:04:19,120 –> 00:04:21,720
Speaker 1: Trubisky situation that was really had the spotlight on it.

92
00:04:21,800 –> 00:04:24,760
Speaker 1: And what they finish, They’ve win three of their final

93
00:04:24,839 –> 00:04:27,440
Speaker 1: four games to make the playoffs. So what you’re seeing

94
00:04:27,480 –> 00:04:29,760
Speaker 1: across the league, I know those records aren’t perfect, but

95
00:04:29,800 –> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: what you’re seeing is a steady hand and I think

96
00:04:31,920 –> 00:04:34,479
Speaker 1: that comes directly from coach Read because never too high,

97
00:04:34,640 –> 00:04:37,039
Speaker 1: never too low. The season’s never over. You have to

98
00:04:37,080 –> 00:04:39,240
Speaker 1: fight the entire way, and I think you’re seeing that

99
00:04:39,279 –> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 1: with a lot of his disciples so far throughout the

100
00:04:41,520 –> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 1: last several years in the NFL. Yeah, he’s got two

101
00:04:45,080 –> 00:04:49,520
Speaker 1: of his postulists are fair, nothing, attack everything. He reminds me,

102
00:04:49,600 –> 00:04:54,200
Speaker 1: because I talk about him publicly a lot, nationally and regionally,

103
00:04:54,680 –> 00:04:57,880
Speaker 1: in the fact that one of his great traits is this,

104
00:04:58,000 –> 00:05:01,919
Speaker 1: don’t blank, don’t flinch. My mom worked as an emergency

105
00:05:02,000 –> 00:05:05,479
Speaker 1: room aid and a surgical aid for years, and she

106
00:05:05,560 –> 00:05:08,279
Speaker 1: worked for an incredible surgeon. He reminds me of the

107
00:05:08,320 –> 00:05:12,000
Speaker 1: surgeon or the emergency room doc or nurse that is

108
00:05:12,040 –> 00:05:17,279
Speaker 1: faced with immediate problem right trauma, trauma, trauma situation, and

109
00:05:17,760 –> 00:05:20,599
Speaker 1: he is just as calm as can be under the

110
00:05:20,640 –> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 1: toughest of circumstances. We’ve seen it in some misses in

111
00:05:23,960 –> 00:05:25,880
Speaker 1: the eight years he’s been here, one in five. Start

112
00:05:25,920 –> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 1: in twenty fifteen, what they’re off, the rails are going nowhere.

113
00:05:28,880 –> 00:05:31,480
Speaker 1: He rallied that team to get him to the playoffs,

114
00:05:32,360 –> 00:05:36,080
Speaker 1: and we saw in twenty seventeen they dipped down as

115
00:05:36,160 –> 00:05:39,599
Speaker 1: low as maybe they’ve been since his time here, and

116
00:05:39,720 –> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 1: he rallied that team to win a division and to

117
00:05:42,120 –> 00:05:44,960
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. One of the five straight division championships.

118
00:05:45,880 –> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 1: It’s either interesting thing about him is he has tiers

119
00:05:49,080 –> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 1: of guys like, Okay, now, who knows what’s happening here

120
00:05:52,880 –> 00:05:55,120
Speaker 1: with Eric b Enemy. I think all these openings right

121
00:05:55,160 –> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: now in the league want to talk to him. He

122
00:05:56,960 –> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: deserves a head coaching job. You and I agree with that.

123
00:05:59,680 –> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: He’s fascinating. We feature him on HIV Chiefs Insider this week.

124
00:06:04,680 –> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 1: But coach Read has a layer of preparation entry level

125
00:06:07,839 –> 00:06:11,119
Speaker 1: guys that he gives responsibility to, middle level of guys

126
00:06:11,160 –> 00:06:14,720
Speaker 1: he gives more responsibility to, and then his main lieutenants

127
00:06:14,760 –> 00:06:17,200
Speaker 1: that if the opportunity arises for them to move on,

128
00:06:17,279 –> 00:06:20,479
Speaker 1: he doesn’t get in their way, but he’s preparing their replacements.

129
00:06:20,720 –> 00:06:22,320
Speaker 1: To me, it’s one of the reasons he has won

130
00:06:22,400 –> 00:06:25,279
Speaker 1: consistently for twenty one years, which is hard to do

131
00:06:25,320 –> 00:06:28,080
Speaker 1: in this league. Yeah, every single guy has a piece

132
00:06:28,080 –> 00:06:30,640
Speaker 1: of this puzzle. That’s what it’s all about. Some situations

133
00:06:30,640 –> 00:06:33,560
Speaker 1: you have the head coach, and you know he takes

134
00:06:33,600 –> 00:06:35,680
Speaker 1: everything for himself. He wants to make sure everyone knows

135
00:06:35,720 –> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: he’s the reason for the success. And yeah, he has lieutenants,

136
00:06:38,520 –> 00:06:40,839
Speaker 1: but they might not be contributing really as much. They’re

137
00:06:40,880 –> 00:06:43,560
Speaker 1: kind of just they’re learning from him. But coach Read,

138
00:06:43,640 –> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: that’s not the case. And he always says this, and

139
00:06:45,200 –> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: people might think it’s just coach speak, but truly everyone

140
00:06:47,960 –> 00:06:49,920
Speaker 1: has a part of this. I mean we always heard

141
00:06:49,920 –> 00:06:51,640
Speaker 1: about with Matt Nagee and Eric b Enemy and all

142
00:06:51,680 –> 00:06:54,400
Speaker 1: these guys drawing up plays and competing against one another

143
00:06:54,440 –> 00:06:57,080
Speaker 1: seeing you know what can work. That’s real, and we’re

144
00:06:57,080 –> 00:06:59,240
Speaker 1: seeing that over the years. And I think about guys

145
00:06:59,240 –> 00:07:02,760
Speaker 1: like Matt Naggie, who was selling real estate in Pennsylvania

146
00:07:03,120 –> 00:07:06,799
Speaker 1: in the early two thousands after a very incredible Arena

147
00:07:06,880 –> 00:07:09,479
Speaker 1: Football League career. I mean, he had no he wasn’t

148
00:07:09,480 –> 00:07:11,800
Speaker 1: going to be a even an assistant coach in this league,

149
00:07:11,800 –> 00:07:14,760
Speaker 1: but Coach Reid saw something in him. They bring him along,

150
00:07:14,800 –> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: and he ends up being a head coach for the

151
00:07:16,600 –> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears, and a pretty good one at that. So

152
00:07:18,960 –> 00:07:22,120
Speaker 1: what coach Read does is he identifies talent. He finds

153
00:07:22,160 –> 00:07:25,320
Speaker 1: guys that can do something really well, just like his players,

154
00:07:25,360 –> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 1: and he puts them in a position to succeed. He

155
00:07:27,520 –> 00:07:30,240
Speaker 1: brings them along, He gets them in his culture which

156
00:07:30,280 –> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 1: breeds success, and brings them along slowly, and before you

157
00:07:33,400 –> 00:07:35,800
Speaker 1: know it, you have half the league is head coaches

158
00:07:36,160 –> 00:07:38,600
Speaker 1: that came up under Andy Reid and they’re in the playoffs.

159
00:07:38,640 –> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: It’s very impressive what he’s able to do. He’s not

160
00:07:41,080 –> 00:07:43,680
Speaker 1: just a great coach, he’s a great teacher, and we’ve

161
00:07:43,680 –> 00:07:45,400
Speaker 1: really seen that over the years, not just with players

162
00:07:45,400 –> 00:07:48,560
Speaker 1: but also coaches. Yeah, Sean McDermott was what a dB

163
00:07:48,680 –> 00:07:51,400
Speaker 1: at William and Mary and he like the entry, entry,

164
00:07:51,520 –> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 1: entry level with the Eagles, and now look what he’s

165
00:07:54,400 –> 00:07:57,680
Speaker 1: done with the Buffalo Bills football team. These tasks that

166
00:07:57,760 –> 00:07:59,960
Speaker 1: he gives. It’s also been fascinating. It’s been a leader

167
00:08:00,080 –> 00:08:02,640
Speaker 1: ship study for me. These subtle tests and you don’t

168
00:08:02,640 –> 00:08:04,680
Speaker 1: even know you’re being tested. He’s done it with you

169
00:08:04,760 –> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 1: and me off saying hey, here’s some information i’m gonna

170
00:08:07,040 –> 00:08:09,080
Speaker 1: give you. Don’t use it until it’s time. But he’s

171
00:08:09,120 –> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 1: testing to see if he can trust us. Right, he

172
00:08:11,200 –> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: did it from the very first months he was in

173
00:08:13,240 –> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 1: Kansas City. But then there’s the tests you don’t know about,

174
00:08:16,720 –> 00:08:19,240
Speaker 1: like there’s the gay or the practice as at camp

175
00:08:19,360 –> 00:08:22,480
Speaker 1: or OTAs that are really division practices that the players

176
00:08:22,520 –> 00:08:24,200
Speaker 1: don’t even know about. And he might give a guy

177
00:08:24,240 –> 00:08:26,520
Speaker 1: and a staff of more responsibility to see how they

178
00:08:26,560 –> 00:08:28,560
Speaker 1: handle it and the more that they can handle the

179
00:08:28,600 –> 00:08:33,160
Speaker 1: more he gives, so that to me is constant testing

180
00:08:33,160 –> 00:08:35,800
Speaker 1: and building to do it. One great example of this

181
00:08:35,880 –> 00:08:39,679
Speaker 1: was that twenty seventeen week seventeen year. It was the

182
00:08:39,720 –> 00:08:42,719
Speaker 1: first year, that our first week that Patrick Mahomes was

183
00:08:42,760 –> 00:08:45,080
Speaker 1: going to play right, Alex had been quarterbacking all that year.

184
00:08:45,280 –> 00:08:47,920
Speaker 1: It’s Week seventeen, Chiefs can’t move the needle. He’s rallied

185
00:08:47,920 –> 00:08:50,360
Speaker 1: the coach, Reata’s rallied the team to get him in

186
00:08:50,360 –> 00:08:53,520
Speaker 1: a position to win the division title. He gave Mike

187
00:08:53,600 –> 00:08:56,600
Speaker 1: Kafka that week because he goes Naggs and I are

188
00:08:56,600 –> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: going to be starting to work on the playoffs. He

189
00:08:58,600 –> 00:09:01,760
Speaker 1: gave a lot of responsibility to Mike kalf his quarterbacks coach,

190
00:09:01,760 –> 00:09:05,680
Speaker 1: who has been Patrick’s caddy so to speak, ever since

191
00:09:05,720 –> 00:09:08,400
Speaker 1: Patrick walked into the building. But that he put way

192
00:09:08,400 –> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 1: more responsibility on Patrick and Mike Kalfka that week in

193
00:09:12,640 –> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: a subtle way. I think to see if he can

194
00:09:14,679 –> 00:09:16,760
Speaker 1: handle it. Because now we know Mike kalf has got

195
00:09:16,760 –> 00:09:19,880
Speaker 1: a brilliant future. It’s these tests that he gives, nurtures,

196
00:09:19,960 –> 00:09:23,880
Speaker 1: builds tests, and it just keeps this moving forward because

197
00:09:23,880 –> 00:09:26,360
Speaker 1: there’s guys on this staff right now, this Kingdom doesn’t

198
00:09:26,400 –> 00:09:29,800
Speaker 1: know about that will be elevated into important roles here

199
00:09:29,800 –> 00:09:33,199
Speaker 1: in the near future. Definitely, those tests are stressful, aren’t they.

200
00:09:33,600 –> 00:09:36,160
Speaker 1: We’re just talking about this on Kingdom conversations, even like

201
00:09:36,280 –> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 1: you or me when we’re talking to him, be a

202
00:09:37,720 –> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: zoom afterwards, I’ll be like, was he testing me there?

203
00:09:40,880 –> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 1: How did I do? You know? And you hooker, I’m

204
00:09:43,800 –> 00:09:45,560
Speaker 1: still here, so I guess I must be doing an

205
00:09:45,600 –> 00:09:48,120
Speaker 1: okay job. But I think you’re absolutely right. I think

206
00:09:48,160 –> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 1: that also extends to his players and what we saw

207
00:09:50,760 –> 00:09:53,960
Speaker 1: against the Chargers in Week seventeen. So Darwin Thompson’s a

208
00:09:53,960 –> 00:09:55,800
Speaker 1: good example. Darwin Thompson’s a guy that early in the

209
00:09:55,800 –> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: season fumbled the football, really didn’t play a lot after

210
00:09:58,440 –> 00:10:00,839
Speaker 1: that in that Baltimore game, didn’t play a lot this season,

211
00:10:01,160 –> 00:10:03,840
Speaker 1: but still has a promising young future. In this game,

212
00:10:03,880 –> 00:10:06,000
Speaker 1: he says, Okay, you’re going to be the starting running back.

213
00:10:06,080 –> 00:10:07,679
Speaker 1: How are you going to handle it? What’s he do?

214
00:10:07,840 –> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 1: He leads a team in rushing and receiving as one

215
00:10:09,800 –> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 1: hundred and ten yards from scrimmage and had a great attitude,

216
00:10:11,960 –> 00:10:14,640
Speaker 1: great mind about him throughout that. I think that really

217
00:10:14,679 –> 00:10:16,800
Speaker 1: is a great example of coach Read’s ability to put

218
00:10:16,880 –> 00:10:19,160
Speaker 1: guys in situations and for them to find that success

219
00:10:19,240 –> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: from that. So he’s not going to throw you in

220
00:10:21,360 –> 00:10:23,400
Speaker 1: the fire. And this is the same thing with the coaches.

221
00:10:23,760 –> 00:10:25,720
Speaker 1: He’s going to put you in a position to succeed

222
00:10:25,880 –> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: and see how you handle it. And Okay, you did

223
00:10:27,920 –> 00:10:29,280
Speaker 1: pretty well with that. Let’s give you a little bit

224
00:10:29,280 –> 00:10:30,520
Speaker 1: more and see how you handle it. And we’ve been

225
00:10:30,559 –> 00:10:33,040
Speaker 1: seeing that with the coaches over the years. Doug Peterson,

226
00:10:33,440 –> 00:10:35,760
Speaker 1: Matt Nagee now at the Eric b Enemy and you’re right,

227
00:10:35,760 –> 00:10:38,560
Speaker 1: guys like Mike Kafka, Dealing McCullough. He could be another

228
00:10:38,600 –> 00:10:40,840
Speaker 1: guy on that list. I’m really excited to see some

229
00:10:40,880 –> 00:10:42,760
Speaker 1: of the guys on this coaching staff that you’re right

230
00:10:42,800 –> 00:10:44,800
Speaker 1: fans might not be very familiar with and see what

231
00:10:44,840 –> 00:10:47,560
Speaker 1: happens to them in like five years. Because if you

232
00:10:47,559 –> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: think about this team in like twenty thirteen, did anyone

233
00:10:50,120 –> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 1: really know who Matt Naggie was. No, And just a

234
00:10:52,240 –> 00:10:54,440
Speaker 1: few years later he’s the head coach of the Chicago Bears.

235
00:10:54,840 –> 00:10:56,800
Speaker 1: Same thing with Eric b Enemy running backs coach on

236
00:10:56,800 –> 00:10:59,679
Speaker 1: this team, former player under coach Read, and you’re right,

237
00:10:59,720 –> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: I mean, he’s the hottest head coaching candidate in the

238
00:11:01,480 –> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 1: NFL right now. This is going to keep happening as

239
00:11:04,200 –> 00:11:06,600
Speaker 1: the Chiefs keep finding success. And it’s one of the

240
00:11:06,640 –> 00:11:08,560
Speaker 1: burdens of being a really great team. But the beauty

241
00:11:08,559 –> 00:11:10,560
Speaker 1: of it is a lot of teams when they lose

242
00:11:10,600 –> 00:11:13,000
Speaker 1: a couple key guys, well, all of a sudden, it’s

243
00:11:13,040 –> 00:11:14,920
Speaker 1: bare bones. You know, they can’t seem to replicate in

244
00:11:15,000 –> 00:11:17,960
Speaker 1: success anymore. The culture that Coach Read has created here

245
00:11:18,320 –> 00:11:21,160
Speaker 1: is spitting these guys out and he’s able to create

246
00:11:21,200 –> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 1: more and more over time. And it’s very exciting to

247
00:11:23,760 –> 00:11:25,360
Speaker 1: see what’s going to happen over the next five to

248
00:11:25,400 –> 00:11:28,080
Speaker 1: ten years with the coaches here in Kansas City, because

249
00:11:28,280 –> 00:11:31,359
Speaker 1: it’s a factory right now. Yeah, name is like Blameyer

250
00:11:31,400 –> 00:11:33,400
Speaker 1: and whitting him. You don’t even know about, but you

251
00:11:33,440 –> 00:11:37,160
Speaker 1: will because here they come. They’re being nurtured and developed.

252
00:11:37,160 –> 00:11:39,960
Speaker 1: But don’t you I want to get Andy Reid Coaching

253
00:11:40,080 –> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: Academy t shirts. I want to get I want to

254
00:11:42,480 –> 00:11:45,520
Speaker 1: wear one of those on a podcast or Kingdom Conversations

255
00:11:45,520 –> 00:11:47,880
Speaker 1: with you sometime or on the set. Don’t we need

256
00:11:48,000 –> 00:11:52,040
Speaker 1: like Coach Read Academy graduates or something. I think we

257
00:11:52,080 –> 00:11:54,920
Speaker 1: need something like that. Yes, we definitely do. And I’m

258
00:11:54,960 –> 00:11:57,640
Speaker 1: imagining a picture of Coach Read with his hands and

259
00:11:57,760 –> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 1: like five rings on him. Rightness, I’m pretty like a decade. Yeah,

260
00:12:03,200 –> 00:12:05,320
Speaker 1: I’ll get these shirts in like a decade, and I

261
00:12:05,360 –> 00:12:07,480
Speaker 1: have a good feeling that might happen and we’ll have

262
00:12:07,559 –> 00:12:09,000
Speaker 1: some rings on that T shirt that would make it

263
00:12:09,000 –> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: even better before we transition this conversation. I do, and

264
00:12:13,640 –> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: I’ve had it happened once. He can melt you like butter.

265
00:12:16,280 –> 00:12:18,160
Speaker 1: He can melt you like butter. He’s just the loving

266
00:12:18,160 –> 00:12:20,920
Speaker 1: father that goes because he’ll tell you this, the words

267
00:12:20,960 –> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: you don’t want to hear. You’re better than that. If

268
00:12:24,800 –> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 1: he goes, Matt, you’re better than that, You’re like, oh no,

269
00:12:28,280 –> 00:12:30,880
Speaker 1: I got one of those. I got one of them. Hey,

270
00:12:30,920 –> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 1: you’re better than that. Yeah, yeah, I had to, you know,

271
00:12:36,320 –> 00:12:40,679
Speaker 1: change change my undergarments. Let’s just put it that way.

272
00:12:40,840 –> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 1: Because he’s he’s got his way, man, he’s got his way.

273
00:12:43,400 –> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 1: But he’s phenomenal, fantastic, and the fact that he’s here

274
00:12:46,720 –> 00:12:48,880
Speaker 1: and blessed us for eight years, and I like the

275
00:12:48,880 –> 00:12:52,119
Speaker 1: five ring idea. All right, let’s transition here. That’s the academy.

276
00:12:52,400 –> 00:12:54,920
Speaker 1: Now we’re gonna do the primer for the Chief’s kingdom

277
00:12:54,960 –> 00:12:56,640
Speaker 1: here on defending the Kingdom. By the way, these are

278
00:12:56,640 –> 00:12:58,920
Speaker 1: the Bows seven hundred headphones. Go to bows dot com.

279
00:12:58,960 –> 00:13:01,680
Speaker 1: You’ll see a headphone up down there. They are Boom.

280
00:13:01,720 –> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: Your life will change. They’re phenomenal. But we’re going to

281
00:13:05,360 –> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 1: do a kingdom primer here we get the benefit Matt,

282
00:13:08,800 –> 00:13:10,840
Speaker 1: everybody in the Chiefs Kingdom. We get to back off.

283
00:13:11,559 –> 00:13:14,080
Speaker 1: And you remember the old movie Braveheart, right, the old

284
00:13:14,320 –> 00:13:17,240
Speaker 1: Battle of fall Kirk, Like, oh my gosh, that’s what

285
00:13:17,280 –> 00:13:20,200
Speaker 1: the AFC is. These battles that are going on have

286
00:13:20,320 –> 00:13:22,520
Speaker 1: been going on for months. The Chiefs get the one seed,

287
00:13:22,720 –> 00:13:24,880
Speaker 1: they can set back and watch the first Battle of

288
00:13:24,920 –> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: Falkirk because I think these are going to be phenomenal matchups.

289
00:13:29,200 –> 00:13:32,880
Speaker 1: Now we both know the Chiefs can play the four, five, six,

290
00:13:33,040 –> 00:13:36,480
Speaker 1: or seven. We might know as soon as Saturday at

291
00:13:36,520 –> 00:13:39,800
Speaker 1: three o’clock because the first game out of the shoot

292
00:13:39,920 –> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: to me has its own elements of interest, and that

293
00:13:44,160 –> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: is the two seed the Buffalo Bills against the seven seed.

294
00:13:47,920 –> 00:13:50,080
Speaker 1: And Chris Ballard, the GM of the Colts, is one

295
00:13:50,120 –> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 1: of these guys that are influenced by Coach Read. He

296
00:13:52,160 –> 00:13:54,760
Speaker 1: will tell you Coach Reads at a big impact on

297
00:13:54,880 –> 00:13:57,280
Speaker 1: his life. That two seven. To me, I know the

298
00:13:57,320 –> 00:14:03,080
Speaker 1: Bills are hot. Oooh, the Colts could make this this

299
00:14:03,320 –> 00:14:05,720
Speaker 1: and if the Colts win, that’s who that Chiefs, that’s

300
00:14:05,760 –> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 1: the seventh seed. You know you’re gonna play them. To me,

301
00:14:08,440 –> 00:14:10,600
Speaker 1: this is a tougher game than I think people give

302
00:14:10,600 –> 00:14:12,880
Speaker 1: it credit for. It should be a great matchup. I

303
00:14:12,920 –> 00:14:14,439
Speaker 1: just want to follow up what you mentioned about the

304
00:14:14,480 –> 00:14:17,080
Speaker 1: AFC really quickly. So many good teams in the AFC

305
00:14:17,240 –> 00:14:19,120
Speaker 1: this year, and again, how lucky are we to have

306
00:14:19,200 –> 00:14:21,160
Speaker 1: this top seed where we can just relax at home

307
00:14:21,480 –> 00:14:23,120
Speaker 1: watch this wild card weekend because it will be so

308
00:14:23,240 –> 00:14:25,440
Speaker 1: much fun. It reminds me from a few weeks ago.

309
00:14:25,760 –> 00:14:28,080
Speaker 1: The Chiefs are always in primetime, as we know at

310
00:14:28,080 –> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 1: three o’clock, or in primetime where you and I can’t

311
00:14:30,760 –> 00:14:33,280
Speaker 1: really watch you know, a lot of other football, you know,

312
00:14:33,640 –> 00:14:35,520
Speaker 1: which you know we’re blussed to watch the Chiefs every

313
00:14:35,560 –> 00:14:36,960
Speaker 1: single week. But it’s nice to come home and sit

314
00:14:37,000 –> 00:14:38,600
Speaker 1: on the couch and watch a really good football game.

315
00:14:38,600 –> 00:14:40,760
Speaker 1: And a few weeks ago when the Steelers were playing

316
00:14:40,800 –> 00:14:42,560
Speaker 1: the Bills and that was a big game for the Chiefs,

317
00:14:42,680 –> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs have played earlier in the day, I

318
00:14:44,160 –> 00:14:46,760
Speaker 1: remember telling you I’m so excited to go home and

319
00:14:46,760 –> 00:14:48,960
Speaker 1: watch a football game on my couch. You know, we

320
00:14:48,960 –> 00:14:50,440
Speaker 1: we finally get a chance to do this. And it’s

321
00:14:50,440 –> 00:14:52,080
Speaker 1: the same way with this wild card weekend. It’s going

322
00:14:52,120 –> 00:14:54,120
Speaker 1: to be an awesome slate of football. And the AFC

323
00:14:54,320 –> 00:14:56,480
Speaker 1: is so good because it’s a lot of just really

324
00:14:56,480 –> 00:14:58,480
Speaker 1: good teams. I think the Chiefs are the loan great

325
00:14:58,480 –> 00:14:59,960
Speaker 1: team in this bunch, and the Bills have a chance.

326
00:15:00,000 –> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: It’s a being that, I think, but a lot of

327
00:15:01,840 –> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: really good teams, and the Colts and the Bills certainly

328
00:15:04,520 –> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 1: fit that bill. The Bills are probably the sexiest team

329
00:15:08,040 –> 00:15:10,200
Speaker 1: in the NFL right now. Never mind the Chiefs have

330
00:15:10,560 –> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: lost twice in the last what year and a half,

331
00:15:13,680 –> 00:15:16,160
Speaker 1: But the Bills are a very popular team right now,

332
00:15:16,200 –> 00:15:18,520
Speaker 1: and for good reasons. They’re playing very good football. One

333
00:15:18,720 –> 00:15:20,600
Speaker 1: nine of their last ten their only loss was on

334
00:15:20,640 –> 00:15:24,760
Speaker 1: the Hail Murray. That lost the Hail Mary against Kyler

335
00:15:24,840 –> 00:15:27,280
Speaker 1: Murray and the Arizona Cardinals. So they really should have

336
00:15:27,280 –> 00:15:29,520
Speaker 1: won each of the last ten games, but one of

337
00:15:29,520 –> 00:15:32,400
Speaker 1: the last seven games by double digits and destroyed Miami.

338
00:15:32,440 –> 00:15:35,160
Speaker 1: I mean, that game really surprised me. Miami. If they

339
00:15:35,160 –> 00:15:37,120
Speaker 1: just won, they’re in the playoffs, and they’re facing a

340
00:15:37,160 –> 00:15:38,920
Speaker 1: lot of the Bills backups for the end of that game,

341
00:15:38,960 –> 00:15:40,760
Speaker 1: and Miami just couldn’t get out of their own way

342
00:15:40,760 –> 00:15:42,360
Speaker 1: and the Bills just demolished them in that game. So

343
00:15:42,400 –> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 1: the Bills are playing very good football. The Josh Allens

344
00:15:45,200 –> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 1: to find Diggs, sorry about that. My backgrounds falling apart.

345
00:15:48,840 –> 00:15:51,840
Speaker 1: The Josh Allens to fond Diggs connection is lethal. We

346
00:15:51,920 –> 00:15:54,840
Speaker 1: know that Diggs led the NFL and receptions and receiving

347
00:15:54,880 –> 00:15:57,720
Speaker 1: yards this year and Alan, I mean, what a year

348
00:15:57,760 –> 00:15:59,720
Speaker 1: for him. I think the last couple of years it

349
00:15:59,760 –> 00:16:02,280
Speaker 1: was like, what do the Bills having Josh Allen? And

350
00:16:02,320 –> 00:16:04,120
Speaker 1: then this year, I mean they know what they have now.

351
00:16:04,160 –> 00:16:07,040
Speaker 1: Thirty seven passing touchdowns and eight rushing scores. He had

352
00:16:07,040 –> 00:16:09,920
Speaker 1: four rushing yards on the ground. So he’s really one

353
00:16:09,960 –> 00:16:12,400
Speaker 1: of the quieter dual threat quarterbacks in the NFL right now,

354
00:16:12,440 –> 00:16:14,640
Speaker 1: having a great year, and it makes for a great

355
00:16:14,680 –> 00:16:17,160
Speaker 1: matchup against this Colts defense, one of the best defenses

356
00:16:17,160 –> 00:16:19,600
Speaker 1: in all the football. What’s interesting about them is they

357
00:16:19,600 –> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 1: have the second lowest blitz rate in the nfls they

358
00:16:22,360 –> 00:16:24,760
Speaker 1: sit back and they play coverage and we’ll see how

359
00:16:24,840 –> 00:16:26,880
Speaker 1: Josh Allen does with that. He’s been pretty good against

360
00:16:26,880 –> 00:16:29,200
Speaker 1: the blitz and when teams du’t blits him over the

361
00:16:29,200 –> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 1: course of the year, but just watching him, he really

362
00:16:31,640 –> 00:16:35,080
Speaker 1: takes advantage when teams sit an extra rusher, and for

363
00:16:35,120 –> 00:16:36,600
Speaker 1: a team like the Colts that can sit back and

364
00:16:36,600 –> 00:16:38,520
Speaker 1: play coverage and play it pretty well, I’m curious to

365
00:16:38,520 –> 00:16:40,480
Speaker 1: see how he does against this team. They’re allowing just

366
00:16:40,480 –> 00:16:43,280
Speaker 1: twenty two point six points per game, second best rushing

367
00:16:43,280 –> 00:16:46,240
Speaker 1: defense in football too. The Bills, outside of Allen, don’t

368
00:16:46,240 –> 00:16:48,640
Speaker 1: really run the ball a whole lot, but they do

369
00:16:48,680 –> 00:16:50,920
Speaker 1: a lot of play action and they also just throw

370
00:16:50,920 –> 00:16:53,000
Speaker 1: the ball very well. So curious to see how Alan

371
00:16:53,080 –> 00:16:57,200
Speaker 1: responds to that Colts defense. On the Colts side of things, Rivers,

372
00:16:57,360 –> 00:16:59,320
Speaker 1: I mean, you believe at thirty nine years old, he

373
00:16:59,320 –> 00:17:02,160
Speaker 1: had a pretty solid season. I mean, look looks like

374
00:17:02,360 –> 00:17:05,040
Speaker 1: things are kind of falling apart there for him for

375
00:17:05,119 –> 00:17:07,480
Speaker 1: the Chargers the last few years, but I’m really had

376
00:17:07,480 –> 00:17:09,040
Speaker 1: a solid year. What they want to do, though, is

377
00:17:09,119 –> 00:17:12,240
Speaker 1: run the football. Jonathan Taylor the last six games seven

378
00:17:12,400 –> 00:17:15,119
Speaker 1: hundred and forty one rushing yards, averaging six point two

379
00:17:15,240 –> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: three yards per carry. They want to run the rock

380
00:17:17,280 –> 00:17:19,120
Speaker 1: over and over again. It should be a great game.

381
00:17:19,520 –> 00:17:21,320
Speaker 1: If I had to pick, though, I think Buffalo wins

382
00:17:21,359 –> 00:17:23,439
Speaker 1: this one, but I think it should be a lot

383
00:17:23,480 –> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 1: of fun. Definitely not a walk in the park for

384
00:17:25,880 –> 00:17:27,920
Speaker 1: the Bills. The Colts are a very tough team. No.

385
00:17:28,040 –> 00:17:30,200
Speaker 1: I think it’s closer to fifty fifty game than people

386
00:17:30,240 –> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 1: realize before we transition the next game. I’m gonna throw

387
00:17:33,080 –> 00:17:35,359
Speaker 1: this out there because the Chief Kingdom thinks of Philip

388
00:17:35,440 –> 00:17:38,120
Speaker 1: Rivers now. The Colts quarterback is an ATM machine, right.

389
00:17:38,480 –> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 1: He just just just spewing out turnovers for the Chiefs

390
00:17:42,119 –> 00:17:44,320
Speaker 1: for years and years and years. But here’s what’s interesting,

391
00:17:44,760 –> 00:17:48,440
Speaker 1: And Josh Allen’s had an incredible year. Only Derek Carr

392
00:17:48,520 –> 00:17:51,359
Speaker 1: has more lost fumbles than Josh Allen. He has lost

393
00:17:51,400 –> 00:17:55,960
Speaker 1: six fumbles. He has thrown ten picks. That’s sixteen giveaways.

394
00:17:56,920 –> 00:17:59,879
Speaker 1: That puts him in a category with guys like Don

395
00:18:00,240 –> 00:18:04,399
Speaker 1: Jones and Derek Carr. So when we think of Philip Rivers,

396
00:18:04,440 –> 00:18:06,919
Speaker 1: we think of him turning the ball over. Now, they’re

397
00:18:07,359 –> 00:18:10,920
Speaker 1: they’re a third fewest giveaways the Colts have this year,

398
00:18:10,960 –> 00:18:13,520
Speaker 1: but they’ve had big ones. There’s a pick six scoop

399
00:18:13,520 –> 00:18:17,400
Speaker 1: and score. They’ve given up a kickoff return for a touchdown,

400
00:18:17,480 –> 00:18:21,159
Speaker 1: three miscellaneous touchdown so to speak. But it’s actually Josh

401
00:18:21,160 –> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: Allen who’s given up the ball more than people realizing

402
00:18:25,359 –> 00:18:28,919
Speaker 1: given up more than Philip Rivers, all right, that we

403
00:18:29,000 –> 00:18:32,040
Speaker 1: could know by three o’clock Saturday, it’s the Colts seven

404
00:18:32,119 –> 00:18:35,359
Speaker 1: seed upset the Bills. That’s your opponent, or if the

405
00:18:35,480 –> 00:18:38,800
Speaker 1: chockholes Bills win. Now we shift to our next game,

406
00:18:39,000 –> 00:18:42,879
Speaker 1: which is Sunday at noon. And speaking of the Battle

407
00:18:42,880 –> 00:18:48,760
Speaker 1: of Falkirk on Braveheart, it is the Titans against the Ravens.

408
00:18:49,680 –> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: I mean, we’re going to see crude weapons brought out

409
00:18:52,320 –> 00:18:55,000
Speaker 1: in this game. Oh my gosh, this is gonna be

410
00:18:55,080 –> 00:18:57,680
Speaker 1: a slug it out game. Yeah, talking about an old

411
00:18:57,680 –> 00:19:01,040
Speaker 1: school football game here in twenty twenty one. These two

412
00:19:01,080 –> 00:19:04,120
Speaker 1: teams canbine for five thousand, seven hundred and sixty one

413
00:19:04,160 –> 00:19:06,920
Speaker 1: rushing yards this year. They both love pounding the football,

414
00:19:07,160 –> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 1: number one and number two rushing teams in the NFL

415
00:19:09,880 –> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 1: this year, and they do it different ways. So for

416
00:19:12,160 –> 00:19:14,320
Speaker 1: the Ravens, you know, they’re really bounced back from that

417
00:19:14,400 –> 00:19:16,880
Speaker 1: rough stretch earlier in the season to win their final

418
00:19:16,960 –> 00:19:20,040
Speaker 1: five games. Degreason because of that. Lamar Jackson, of course,

419
00:19:20,400 –> 00:19:23,160
Speaker 1: reigning League MVP, had a really nice season, not quite

420
00:19:23,200 –> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: as MVP year, but still a pretty nice year through

421
00:19:26,280 –> 00:19:29,280
Speaker 1: nearly three thousand passing yards and one thousand rushing yards.

422
00:19:29,320 –> 00:19:30,919
Speaker 1: So the guy can do it with his legs as

423
00:19:30,920 –> 00:19:33,080
Speaker 1: well as his arm. We know that also, multiple running

424
00:19:33,080 –> 00:19:35,800
Speaker 1: backs will hammer you with guys like JKK Dobbins, Gus Edwards,

425
00:19:35,920 –> 00:19:38,080
Speaker 1: mark Ingram Money is healthy, they’ll hammer you with fresh

426
00:19:38,160 –> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: legs over and over and over again. That’s what they

427
00:19:40,000 –> 00:19:42,280
Speaker 1: want to do is run the football. You know. The

428
00:19:42,320 –> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 1: problem with the Ravens over the years when Lamar Jackson

429
00:19:45,000 –> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 1: has been there has been coming back from deficits, and

430
00:19:47,720 –> 00:19:49,800
Speaker 1: we saw it just last year against the Tennessee Titans.

431
00:19:49,840 –> 00:19:52,720
Speaker 1: They couldn’t quite come back from that deficit. I don’t

432
00:19:52,720 –> 00:19:54,360
Speaker 1: know if they’ve quite figured that out yet. It looked

433
00:19:54,359 –> 00:19:56,560
Speaker 1: pretty good against the Cleveland Brown’s earlier this season. But

434
00:19:56,840 –> 00:19:59,560
Speaker 1: if the Titans can get a lead on this Ravens team,

435
00:20:00,040 –> 00:20:03,120
Speaker 1: sitting pretty because they have Dereck Henry, best running back

436
00:20:03,119 –> 00:20:06,640
Speaker 1: in football, two twenty seven rushing yards this year. Match

437
00:20:06,680 –> 00:20:08,680
Speaker 1: it’s twenty twenty one and we have a two thousand

438
00:20:08,720 –> 00:20:11,480
Speaker 1: yard rusher in the NFL. Only eight players in NFL

439
00:20:11,560 –> 00:20:14,080
Speaker 1: history have done that, and I think, like ten years ago,

440
00:20:14,160 –> 00:20:16,679
Speaker 1: this was a much bigger deal. Nowadays, you know, everyone

441
00:20:16,720 –> 00:20:19,280
Speaker 1: wants five thousand passing yards and fifty touchdowns and for

442
00:20:19,320 –> 00:20:21,960
Speaker 1: good reason. I mean, that’s awesome, But two thousand rushing

443
00:20:22,040 –> 00:20:25,080
Speaker 1: yards it’s pretty impressive for Derrick Henry. And if the

444
00:20:25,080 –> 00:20:27,320
Speaker 1: Titans can get a lead in this game with Ryan

445
00:20:27,359 –> 00:20:30,119
Speaker 1: Tannehill throwing to Corey Davis AJ Brown, if they can

446
00:20:30,160 –> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 1: get a lead in this game, that’s when it gets

447
00:20:31,760 –> 00:20:34,280
Speaker 1: really interesting because they’re gonna run the ball Henry over

448
00:20:34,320 –> 00:20:36,879
Speaker 1: and over again. And can Lamar Jackson come back? And

449
00:20:37,240 –> 00:20:40,000
Speaker 1: I think Lamar is kind of fighting a playoff narrative

450
00:20:40,040 –> 00:20:42,720
Speaker 1: here where he can’t quite win that playoff game. He

451
00:20:42,720 –> 00:20:44,800
Speaker 1: can’t quite get over that hump to be that great

452
00:20:44,800 –> 00:20:47,760
Speaker 1: player that we all know he is. Hasn’t won a

453
00:20:47,800 –> 00:20:49,880
Speaker 1: playoff game yet. This is his chance. It’s a tough

454
00:20:49,920 –> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 1: game against the Titans. It should be a lot of fun.

455
00:20:52,560 –> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 1: If I had to pick, I think the Ravens won

456
00:20:54,880 –> 00:20:57,359
Speaker 1: this game. But if the Titans get up, it should

457
00:20:57,400 –> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: be really interesting. Yeah, they got up last year, and

458
00:20:59,720 –> 00:21:02,280
Speaker 1: that’s where the Ravens had to play up Hill in

459
00:21:02,320 –> 00:21:04,359
Speaker 1: that big upset that allowed the Chiefs to get the

460
00:21:04,359 –> 00:21:07,320
Speaker 1: host of the Titans in the Sea Championship game. Because

461
00:21:07,320 –> 00:21:09,119
Speaker 1: people ask all the time, Matt, can you run the

462
00:21:09,160 –> 00:21:10,639
Speaker 1: ball and win? In this day and age it’s a

463
00:21:10,640 –> 00:21:12,800
Speaker 1: passing league? Can you win in the playoffs running the ball?

464
00:21:13,200 –> 00:21:16,600
Speaker 1: These two teams can and here’s why they get chunk

465
00:21:16,720 –> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 1: big plays. There are thirty one twenty plus runs from

466
00:21:20,800 –> 00:21:23,840
Speaker 1: the Baltimore Ravens. You mentioned the names. Lamar Jackson’s got

467
00:21:23,840 –> 00:21:26,840
Speaker 1: a fifty yard touchdown. JK Dobbins has a seventy two

468
00:21:26,920 –> 00:21:30,640
Speaker 1: yard touchdown, mark Ingram’s got a thirty yard touchdown, Gus

469
00:21:30,680 –> 00:21:33,560
Speaker 1: Bradley’s got a thirty six yard run. And Devin duburna

470
00:21:33,720 –> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 1: who I called when he had the kickoff return against

471
00:21:35,600 –> 00:21:38,359
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, Devin Duburn a Tardif they are not related.

472
00:21:38,400 –> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 1: That was my biggest gaff of the year because the

473
00:21:40,840 –> 00:21:43,000
Speaker 1: engineering is going you just call him dubn a tardif

474
00:21:43,160 –> 00:21:45,159
Speaker 1: I didn’t even know I said it. But he has

475
00:21:45,200 –> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: a seventy two yard reverse okay for a run for

476
00:21:47,920 –> 00:21:51,400
Speaker 1: a touchdown. And Derrick Henry we saw last year beat

477
00:21:51,440 –> 00:21:53,560
Speaker 1: the Chiefs with a sixty eight yard run for a

478
00:21:53,600 –> 00:21:57,000
Speaker 1: touchdown and a ninety four yard run this year, longest

479
00:21:57,000 –> 00:21:59,720
Speaker 1: in the NFL. Here’s the difference in these two teams

480
00:21:59,760 –> 00:22:02,840
Speaker 1: in the way they run the ball. They get chunk

481
00:22:02,840 –> 00:22:05,160
Speaker 1: plays in the run, their idea of the wasp. They’ll

482
00:22:05,200 –> 00:22:08,119
Speaker 1: get the wasp. But it’s not a forty four yard

483
00:22:08,119 –> 00:22:10,880
Speaker 1: pass in the wasp. It’s a forty four yard run.

484
00:22:11,359 –> 00:22:14,160
Speaker 1: And to me, just chart twenty plus runs in this game,

485
00:22:14,560 –> 00:22:17,320
Speaker 1: especially early on, and that’s the team that will win

486
00:22:17,400 –> 00:22:19,159
Speaker 1: the game. Yes, they can run and win it in

487
00:22:19,160 –> 00:22:22,439
Speaker 1: the playoffs because they get big runs. These aren’t grinding

488
00:22:22,480 –> 00:22:25,520
Speaker 1: away at four yards a click. Definitely. You know, I

489
00:22:25,560 –> 00:22:28,520
Speaker 1: have like forty tabs open at all times on my laptop.

490
00:22:28,600 –> 00:22:31,399
Speaker 1: Drives my fiance crazy and everyone around me crazy. But

491
00:22:31,480 –> 00:22:33,440
Speaker 1: what I have is I have lots of Pro Football

492
00:22:33,440 –> 00:22:36,760
Speaker 1: reference tables basically just ready to go, and I’ll refresh

493
00:22:36,800 –> 00:22:38,520
Speaker 1: him every single week to see how they changed. And

494
00:22:38,600 –> 00:22:40,320
Speaker 1: one of the ones I always have open is Tyreek

495
00:22:40,400 –> 00:22:42,399
Speaker 1: Hill for his fifty yard touchdowns because he has more

496
00:22:42,440 –> 00:22:45,600
Speaker 1: than everybody since twenty seventeen. But what’s really amazing is

497
00:22:45,640 –> 00:22:47,399
Speaker 1: Derek Henry is right up there with him. You know,

498
00:22:47,480 –> 00:22:50,080
Speaker 1: you have a lot of big time receivers like Tyreek

499
00:22:50,160 –> 00:22:51,880
Speaker 1: Hill that are in those categories where they have big

500
00:22:51,920 –> 00:22:55,000
Speaker 1: fifty yard touchdown chunk plays. But for a running back

501
00:22:55,000 –> 00:22:57,520
Speaker 1: and especially a guy of his size, to have that

502
00:22:57,560 –> 00:23:00,000
Speaker 1: mini I think he has like like twelve or thirteen

503
00:23:00,160 –> 00:23:02,560
Speaker 1: fifty yard touchdown since he entered the league. That’s phenomenal.

504
00:23:02,840 –> 00:23:04,880
Speaker 1: And you’re right, it’s not just ground and pound. It’s

505
00:23:04,880 –> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: not just four yards a here, five yards there. It’s

506
00:23:07,440 –> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 1: four yards here, five yards there, fifty yard touchdown. So yeah,

507
00:23:11,080 –> 00:23:12,880
Speaker 1: they can hit the big plays over and over again.

508
00:23:13,160 –> 00:23:15,160
Speaker 1: And the thing with the Titans and the Ravens, if

509
00:23:15,160 –> 00:23:17,480
Speaker 1: it’s a close game, they’ll keep going to it. So

510
00:23:17,520 –> 00:23:19,880
Speaker 1: if it’s not working in the first half or even

511
00:23:19,880 –> 00:23:23,440
Speaker 1: through three quarters, they’ll keep doing it. And eventually, when

512
00:23:23,480 –> 00:23:25,439
Speaker 1: Derek Henry he’s hitting you over and over again. As

513
00:23:25,440 –> 00:23:27,920
Speaker 1: a defensive lineman or a linebacker, you might break every

514
00:23:27,920 –> 00:23:29,680
Speaker 1: once in a while, and all of a sudden you’re

515
00:23:29,720 –> 00:23:32,560
Speaker 1: down seven points. So very interested to watch this game

516
00:23:32,920 –> 00:23:35,560
Speaker 1: for old school football fans, this will be awesome because

517
00:23:35,560 –> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: you have some some good defense in this game. Two

518
00:23:37,320 –> 00:23:40,280
Speaker 1: great running backs, not just two great running backs, several

519
00:23:40,320 –> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 1: great running backs. Two great running football teams. And it’s

520
00:23:43,280 –> 00:23:44,920
Speaker 1: also a lot of fun for our New age fans

521
00:23:44,920 –> 00:23:46,560
Speaker 1: because you have a lot of personalities in this game,

522
00:23:46,600 –> 00:23:49,280
Speaker 1: like Lamar Jackson and Derek Henry. So this is really

523
00:23:49,320 –> 00:23:51,680
Speaker 1: the perfect playoff game for the NFL right now, and

524
00:23:51,680 –> 00:23:53,360
Speaker 1: I can’t wait to see how it plays out. Yeah,

525
00:23:53,400 –> 00:23:55,359
Speaker 1: but these two teams with getting big plays in the

526
00:23:55,440 –> 00:23:58,439
Speaker 1: run game, they’re so old school their new school because

527
00:23:58,520 –> 00:24:00,920
Speaker 1: this is a this is a just unique proach that

528
00:24:01,000 –> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 1: goes against some of the current thoughts in the NFL.

529
00:24:04,320 –> 00:24:06,680
Speaker 1: All Right, Finally, as we wrap up this edition of

530
00:24:06,760 –> 00:24:09,719
Speaker 1: Defending the Kingdom, and thanks for being on with me,

531
00:24:09,840 –> 00:24:12,680
Speaker 1: let’s look at the final game. Because if the Bills

532
00:24:13,160 –> 00:24:16,080
Speaker 1: whole chalk and when Saturday at noon against the Colts,

533
00:24:16,160 –> 00:24:18,440
Speaker 1: we have to wait all the way till Sunday night.

534
00:24:18,480 –> 00:24:22,080
Speaker 1: We will not know the opponent till after the Steelers

535
00:24:22,240 –> 00:24:25,520
Speaker 1: Browns game. This game has interests because a lot of reasons.

536
00:24:26,440 –> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: To me. The biggest one though is earlier in the

537
00:24:28,800 –> 00:24:32,639
Speaker 1: week it was announced that COVID has just is getting

538
00:24:32,680 –> 00:24:36,400
Speaker 1: to the Browns. Kevin Stefanski will not coach in this game.

539
00:24:36,720 –> 00:24:40,159
Speaker 1: He tested positive on Tuesday this week and will not

540
00:24:40,200 –> 00:24:42,600
Speaker 1: be allowed to coach they’re missing. They’re going to miss

541
00:24:42,680 –> 00:24:45,600
Speaker 1: him and two coaches. They’re going to miss two more players.

542
00:24:45,880 –> 00:24:47,760
Speaker 1: We know it wrecked them a little bit. Although they

543
00:24:47,760 –> 00:24:50,560
Speaker 1: were able to win in week seventeen against the Steelers.

544
00:24:50,600 –> 00:24:52,320
Speaker 1: They’re going to play again within a week here. It’s

545
00:24:52,320 –> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 1: a week in, two games and seven days against the

546
00:24:54,560 –> 00:24:57,240
Speaker 1: brutal Division opponent. But who knows who’s going to be

547
00:24:57,240 –> 00:25:00,880
Speaker 1: out there and coaching for the Browns right now? Mike Preefer,

548
00:25:01,119 –> 00:25:04,359
Speaker 1: who was the special teams coach for the Chiefs under Herm. Edwards.

549
00:25:04,400 –> 00:25:07,399
Speaker 1: Good dude, Naval Academy graduate, great guy. He’s had to

550
00:25:07,480 –> 00:25:10,280
Speaker 1: land helicopters on the middle of a carrier in the

551
00:25:10,320 –> 00:25:14,000
Speaker 1: middle of the Pacific and choppy waters and almost died

552
00:25:14,320 –> 00:25:16,080
Speaker 1: that he might be the coach. I mean, who knows

553
00:25:16,119 –> 00:25:18,359
Speaker 1: who’s going to be up there for the Browns. Yeah,

554
00:25:18,400 –> 00:25:20,959
Speaker 1: I mean, what a tough break for the Cleveland Browns.

555
00:25:21,000 –> 00:25:24,720
Speaker 1: So finally, for the first time since two thousand and two,

556
00:25:25,000 –> 00:25:27,560
Speaker 1: they make the playoffs, only the second time since nineteen

557
00:25:27,640 –> 00:25:29,720
Speaker 1: ninety four. And as you reminded me before our show

558
00:25:29,760 –> 00:25:32,359
Speaker 1: started here today, that wasn’t even the Cleveland Browns that

559
00:25:32,400 –> 00:25:34,240
Speaker 1: we’re seeing here. Today. That was what turned into the

560
00:25:34,280 –> 00:25:37,439
Speaker 1: Baltimore Ravens back in ninety four. So this iteration of

561
00:25:37,440 –> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: the Browns have made the playoffs twice in their history

562
00:25:40,440 –> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: two thousand and two, and this season, you’re feeling pretty good.

563
00:25:43,600 –> 00:25:46,440
Speaker 1: You have Baker Mayfield, you have Cream Hunt, you have

564
00:25:46,520 –> 00:25:48,520
Speaker 1: Nick Chubb, you have these receivers, you have a pretty

565
00:25:48,520 –> 00:25:50,240
Speaker 1: good team, and you’re in the playoffs and you have

566
00:25:50,240 –> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 1: a chance to go against Big brother and the Pittsburgh Steelers.

567
00:25:53,240 –> 00:25:55,440
Speaker 1: And then this hits with the COVID. It’s really unfortunate

568
00:25:55,480 –> 00:25:58,240
Speaker 1: because Kevin Sefanski probably the coach of the Year this year.

569
00:25:58,320 –> 00:26:00,159
Speaker 1: Him and Brian Flores are right there going for it.

570
00:26:01,080 –> 00:26:04,439
Speaker 1: It’s really unfortunate just for fans of the game. You

571
00:26:04,480 –> 00:26:06,520
Speaker 1: want to see the best coaches and players out there.

572
00:26:06,520 –> 00:26:10,040
Speaker 1: It’s too bad, and it’s too bad for the Browns.

573
00:26:10,040 –> 00:26:11,639
Speaker 1: We’ll see how they can overcome this. And if they

574
00:26:11,640 –> 00:26:15,040
Speaker 1: can overcome this. It’s interesting because they’re playing the Steelers

575
00:26:15,080 –> 00:26:17,800
Speaker 1: team that was so good for the first half of

576
00:26:17,800 –> 00:26:19,879
Speaker 1: the year, really first three quarters of the year. They

577
00:26:19,880 –> 00:26:21,760
Speaker 1: go eleven and oh to start the season and just

578
00:26:21,920 –> 00:26:25,000
Speaker 1: really seem to lose their way toward the end of

579
00:26:25,040 –> 00:26:27,159
Speaker 1: the year. They’re railing. They lose to the Bills, they

580
00:26:27,200 –> 00:26:29,440
Speaker 1: lose to the Washington football team, then they lose to

581
00:26:29,520 –> 00:26:32,440
Speaker 1: the Bengals on Monday Night Football, Bengals team that had

582
00:26:32,480 –> 00:26:35,200
Speaker 1: no Joe Burrow but had struggled all season long and

583
00:26:35,560 –> 00:26:38,160
Speaker 1: really just look kind of lifeless over the last five

584
00:26:38,200 –> 00:26:40,680
Speaker 1: weeks or so. Now, of course, there’s still the three

585
00:26:40,680 –> 00:26:43,480
Speaker 1: seed here and had a great season. And I think

586
00:26:43,560 –> 00:26:45,960
Speaker 1: whenever I think about the Steelers, I think if they

587
00:26:46,000 –> 00:26:48,480
Speaker 1: didn’t start eleven and oh, we’d view them a lot differently.

588
00:26:48,760 –> 00:26:51,480
Speaker 1: I think if they were twelve and four and those

589
00:26:51,560 –> 00:26:53,760
Speaker 1: losses were kind of scattered throughout the year, I think

590
00:26:53,760 –> 00:26:55,359
Speaker 1: we look at them as a very dangerous team with

591
00:26:55,440 –> 00:26:58,000
Speaker 1: a great defense, and Ben Roethlinsberger has experience, and you’d

592
00:26:58,000 –> 00:27:00,520
Speaker 1: be you know, they’re they’re a great team and chanted

593
00:27:00,840 –> 00:27:04,119
Speaker 1: competing with the Chiefs for the AFC championship. But because

594
00:27:04,160 –> 00:27:05,719
Speaker 1: they fell apart kind of towards the end of the year,

595
00:27:05,720 –> 00:27:07,680
Speaker 1: they’re they’re viewed differently now. I think it’s important to

596
00:27:07,720 –> 00:27:11,040
Speaker 1: remind people this is Mike Tomlin, this has Ben Roethlinsburger,

597
00:27:11,040 –> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: and they know how to win in the playoffs, and

598
00:27:13,040 –> 00:27:15,720
Speaker 1: they’re going against this Cleveland team that has been really

599
00:27:15,720 –> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 1: exciting all season long, but without their head coach and

600
00:27:18,560 –> 00:27:21,720
Speaker 1: without really any playoff experience at all. I’m curious if

601
00:27:21,760 –> 00:27:24,960
Speaker 1: those intangibles really come into play here. Because the Steelers

602
00:27:25,160 –> 00:27:27,080
Speaker 1: they’re flawed, we know that, but they do they do

603
00:27:27,119 –> 00:27:28,880
Speaker 1: have a great defense, and they still have big Ben.

604
00:27:29,400 –> 00:27:31,480
Speaker 1: They still can move the football. They’ve guys like Juju

605
00:27:31,520 –> 00:27:33,840
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster, they can throw the ball to. Deante Johnson

606
00:27:33,840 –> 00:27:36,760
Speaker 1: had a pretty nice year minus all the drops. This

607
00:27:36,800 –> 00:27:38,680
Speaker 1: Steelers team can move the ball, and they can play

608
00:27:38,680 –> 00:27:41,120
Speaker 1: good defense. They can they can win in the playoffs,

609
00:27:41,280 –> 00:27:42,920
Speaker 1: and I think we’re going to see them take their

610
00:27:43,040 –> 00:27:46,320
Speaker 1: anti upper level here in the postseason, just because they’re

611
00:27:46,359 –> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh and they’re playing a team in the Browns who

612
00:27:49,760 –> 00:27:53,120
Speaker 1: is already very happy just to be there, and they’re

613
00:27:53,119 –> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 1: already missing their leader. It’ll be tough, but it should

614
00:27:56,040 –> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 1: be a great game. I love these divisional matchups in

615
00:27:57,960 –> 00:27:59,760
Speaker 1: the playoffs because it’s so hard to play a team

616
00:27:59,800 –> 00:28:02,120
Speaker 1: for a third time, and we’ll see how it plays out.

617
00:28:02,480 –> 00:28:05,680
Speaker 1: Phenomenal and Mike Tomlin, to me, gives them their best

618
00:28:05,720 –> 00:28:08,040
Speaker 1: chance to win. I talk, you know, talk about a

619
00:28:08,040 –> 00:28:10,160
Speaker 1: guy that could fight through adversity as a head coach

620
00:28:10,200 –> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 1: is the way we started this podcast with Andy Reid.

621
00:28:12,600 –> 00:28:15,679
Speaker 1: Mike Tomlin’s ad dude. He’s a leader’s leader, and if

622
00:28:15,680 –> 00:28:17,399
Speaker 1: they’re going to drag through and get through all this,

623
00:28:17,560 –> 00:28:19,919
Speaker 1: it would be I think because of Mike Tomlin. All right,

624
00:28:19,960 –> 00:28:22,920
Speaker 1: here we go. We’ve got the primer. Watch the first

625
00:28:22,920 –> 00:28:25,919
Speaker 1: one Saturday at noon. Colts win, that’s who we got. Okay,

626
00:28:26,000 –> 00:28:27,520
Speaker 1: if they don’t win, you gotta wait all the way

627
00:28:27,560 –> 00:28:30,080
Speaker 1: to Sunday night because if the Browns win, that’s who

628
00:28:30,080 –> 00:28:32,840
Speaker 1: we got. Then that four or five Battle of Falkirk

629
00:28:33,000 –> 00:28:35,600
Speaker 1: on Sunday noon. So we lay it out here, Matt,

630
00:28:35,640 –> 00:28:37,280
Speaker 1: Here we go. Time to run it back, try to

631
00:28:37,320 –> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 1: be the first team in sixteen years to win a

632
00:28:39,800 –> 00:28:42,480
Speaker 1: back to back Super Bowl championship. But we get to

633
00:28:42,520 –> 00:28:45,479
Speaker 1: watch everybody slug it out this week, and I think

634
00:28:45,520 –> 00:28:47,240
Speaker 1: it really help us because we get a chance to

635
00:28:47,280 –> 00:28:49,640
Speaker 1: get healthy, get a chance to rest, take a mental

636
00:28:49,680 –> 00:28:51,920
Speaker 1: break before taking on a really good football team in

637
00:28:51,920 –> 00:28:54,760
Speaker 1: an Arrowhead stadium. But this is so exciting, Mitch, because

638
00:28:54,760 –> 00:28:57,840
Speaker 1: we’ve been talking about running it back since since February,

639
00:28:57,880 –> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: since the Super Bowl, we’ve been talking about how that

640
00:29:00,160 –> 00:29:02,520
Speaker 1: was great, but we won another one, But there’s checkpoints

641
00:29:02,520 –> 00:29:05,080
Speaker 1: along the way to get there. You have to get

642
00:29:05,120 –> 00:29:07,160
Speaker 1: through this crazy COVID off season. You have to get

643
00:29:07,160 –> 00:29:08,920
Speaker 1: through the regular season. You have to win your division,

644
00:29:08,920 –> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: you have to try to get that first round by

645
00:29:10,840 –> 00:29:12,680
Speaker 1: and they’ve done all that. They got back here, won

646
00:29:12,800 –> 00:29:16,040
Speaker 1: fourteen games, a franchise record. What a season for the Chiefs,

647
00:29:16,200 –> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 1: best regular season in Chiefs franchise history, and following the

648
00:29:19,400 –> 00:29:21,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl the way they did is awesome because it

649
00:29:21,800 –> 00:29:24,440
Speaker 1: shows how hungry this team is. And now finally they

650
00:29:24,440 –> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 1: have a chance again in the playoff to show what

651
00:29:26,960 –> 00:29:28,520
Speaker 1: they are made of and show that they’re ready to

652
00:29:28,600 –> 00:29:32,080
Speaker 1: run it back. Mitch. One win here in the divisional

653
00:29:32,160 –> 00:29:35,640
Speaker 1: round and we’re hosting a third straight at championship game

654
00:29:35,640 –> 00:29:38,880
Speaker 1: at Arrowhead Stadium. These are the golden years of Chiefs football.

655
00:29:38,880 –> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 1: We’re living them and I just can’t wait to see

656
00:29:40,960 –> 00:29:42,640
Speaker 1: what the playoffs hold here because it should be an

657
00:29:42,680 –> 00:29:45,920
Speaker 1: absolute blast watching this team go for another title. If

658
00:29:45,920 –> 00:29:48,400
Speaker 1: I’m not mistaken, it’s only happened one other time. The

659
00:29:48,400 –> 00:29:52,680
Speaker 1: Eagles did it with Andy Reid hosting three straight conference championships.

660
00:29:53,040 –> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. It’s ready to roll, and

661
00:29:55,480 –> 00:29:58,880
Speaker 1: the great you know you study philosophy and great theologians

662
00:29:58,960 –> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 1: and great po warriors. As we go back to a

663
00:30:02,000 –> 00:30:05,560
Speaker 1: braveheart here right, William Wallace, the poet warrior. It’s the

664
00:30:05,600 –> 00:30:08,920
Speaker 1: great poet warrior of our time. Patrick Mahomes that said,

665
