21
00:01:12,520 –> 00:01:14,080

00:01:14,120 –> 00:01:17,399

23
00:01:17,400 –> 00:01:19,800
Speaker 1: and then jump into the twenty twenty one regular season,

24
00:01:21,360 –> 00:01:24,400
Speaker 1: and we’re going to call this the PPE Show. Now,

25
00:01:24,600 –> 00:01:27,760
Speaker 1: I don’t want anybody. I pray that there would be

26
00:01:27,760 –> 00:01:30,920
Speaker 1: no misunderstanding here we are. First we want to do

27
00:01:31,200 –> 00:01:33,400
Speaker 1: is honor those folks that would have had to wear

28
00:01:33,520 –> 00:01:38,280
Speaker 1: personal protective equipment for the past year every day shop

29
00:01:38,880 –> 00:01:42,479
Speaker 1: people that are in the front lines of healthcare, people

30
00:01:42,560 –> 00:01:45,639
Speaker 1: that are in the front lines of making sure everything

31
00:01:45,760 –> 00:01:48,880
Speaker 1: is clean and sanitary and safe. I think of those people.

32
00:01:49,520 –> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 1: At one hour I had drive that has There’s a

33
00:01:53,040 –> 00:01:56,000
Speaker 1: gal named Maddie that’s had to wear PPE every day

34
00:01:56,040 –> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: and had to scrub everything down to make sure it

35
00:01:59,080 –> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 1: was safe for our players and coaches and staff. Well,

36
00:02:01,720 –> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: that’s just one example of thousands of people in the

37
00:02:04,720 –> 00:02:08,040
Speaker 1: Chief’s Kingdom that have had to wear a PPE to

38
00:02:09,520 –> 00:02:11,720
Speaker 1: sacrifice for all of us, to try to keep us safe.

39
00:02:11,720 –> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: So let’s start there. There are people whose lives have

40
00:02:15,320 –> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: been dedicated to keeping other lives safe. Definitely, you know

41
00:02:18,800 –> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 1: the doctors, the nurses, all even the people doing the

42
00:02:21,520 –> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 1: research to find out to get us to a point

43
00:02:24,240 –> 00:02:26,400
Speaker 1: now where we can begin to get vaccinated for the

44
00:02:27,080 –> 00:02:30,399
Speaker 1: COVID nineteen. I mean, we just can’t. We can’t appreciate

45
00:02:30,440 –> 00:02:33,320
Speaker 1: them enough, We can’t thank them enough. It’s it’s whatever

46
00:02:33,360 –> 00:02:35,280
Speaker 1: we try to say and do is gonna come and

47
00:02:35,320 –> 00:02:38,839
Speaker 1: fall so far short of how we truly feel and

48
00:02:38,960 –> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 1: how we truly appreciate all the effort, time, all the sacrifice,

49
00:02:44,880 –> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: the first line workers and the doctors and the nurses,

50
00:02:47,840 –> 00:02:50,400
Speaker 1: even the people were at the stadium. They’re testing the

51
00:02:50,440 –> 00:02:53,200
Speaker 1: players and coaches and staff on a daily basis. You know,

52
00:02:53,320 –> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: from us working as far as doing pre and postgame show,

53
00:02:56,520 –> 00:02:59,720
Speaker 1: you’re doing the game calls. We’ve had to meet these

54
00:03:00,080 –> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 1: individuals on a week by week basis to have the

55
00:03:02,120 –> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: opportunity to even come and film our game, they shows,

56
00:03:05,680 –> 00:03:08,520
Speaker 1: and so to all of those folks that have given

57
00:03:08,560 –> 00:03:13,040
Speaker 1: this season a chance all across the nation, every team

58
00:03:13,040 –> 00:03:18,680
Speaker 1: in the NFL has had tremendous say our support giving

59
00:03:18,680 –> 00:03:21,760
Speaker 1: guys the opportunity to have a season when a lot

60
00:03:21,800 –> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: of people thought that it was impossible. They thought that

61
00:03:25,360 –> 00:03:26,919
Speaker 1: the only way to have something like this would be

62
00:03:26,960 –> 00:03:28,880
Speaker 1: a bubble the NFL is man have to create a

63
00:03:28,880 –> 00:03:32,360
Speaker 1: bubble someplace, try to ship all thirty two teams, shut

64
00:03:32,400 –> 00:03:34,720
Speaker 1: down the city, make it all just football. Know the

65
00:03:34,800 –> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: NFL did the right thing. Everybody created the right protocol.

66
00:03:39,080 –> 00:03:42,120
Speaker 1: And what the Chiefs organization did it was we always

67
00:03:42,280 –> 00:03:46,000
Speaker 1: went above and beyond whatever the protocol was. Our protocol

68
00:03:46,040 –> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: seemed to be even further extentuations of that protocol, and

69
00:03:51,200 –> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 1: that kept our safe, our city, our town, our players,

70
00:03:54,320 –> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 1: our coaches, us as individuals as safe as possible throughout

71
00:03:58,640 –> 00:04:04,240
Speaker 1: the NFL football season, absolutely and well stated. So first

72
00:04:04,280 –> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: and foremost, we salute those who’ve had to wear PPE

73
00:04:08,920 –> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 1: every day and still do to help us. But I

74
00:04:12,440 –> 00:04:16,200
Speaker 1: thought that that PPE could be an acronym for this

75
00:04:16,279 –> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: episode because there’s three things we’re going to talk about here.

76
00:04:20,000 –> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: First is pause, two is perspective, and three is energy.

77
00:04:25,480 –> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 1: All right, there we go. All right, let’s start with

78
00:04:27,640 –> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: pause here, and I want to put it in a

79
00:04:30,839 –> 00:04:33,080
Speaker 1: realm of what’s happened the last three years with the

80
00:04:33,160 –> 00:04:36,760
Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs. The Kansas City Chiefs have been the

81
00:04:36,800 –> 00:04:40,040
Speaker 1: most successful team shop in the National Football League regular

82
00:04:40,080 –> 00:04:43,120
Speaker 1: season record of thirty eight and ten that is tied

83
00:04:43,160 –> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: with the New Orleans Saints for best in the NFL

84
00:04:46,440 –> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 1: in three years span. This has been since Pat Mahomes

85
00:04:48,920 –> 00:04:52,920
Speaker 1: has been Patrick Mahomes has been the quarterback, including that

86
00:04:53,000 –> 00:04:56,480
Speaker 1: ten loss. That tenth loss in the regular season was

87
00:04:56,520 –> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: the game where we pulled all the starters out and

88
00:04:58,920 –> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 1: didn’t play him against the Chargers. Then when you look

89
00:05:02,640 –> 00:05:07,279
Speaker 1: at in the playoffs and well in the division, fifteen

90
00:05:07,320 –> 00:05:11,039
Speaker 1: and three in those three years, including one game against

91
00:05:11,040 –> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: the Chargers, pulled everybody up and then six and two

92
00:05:13,400 –> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and nobody’s been that successful in the

93
00:05:16,279 –> 00:05:20,039
Speaker 1: NFL when you look at those stats. But that’s fifty

94
00:05:20,080 –> 00:05:24,200
Speaker 1: six games the team. That’s three and a half seasons,

95
00:05:24,520 –> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 1: three deep runs, three straight years. There has to be,

96
00:05:28,000 –> 00:05:31,200
Speaker 1: in my opinion, in the next thirty to forty five days,

97
00:05:31,600 –> 00:05:36,040
Speaker 1: a very important pause. And I’m gonna give some stats

98
00:05:36,080 –> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 1: here in a second. But you played, but when you

99
00:05:38,320 –> 00:05:42,360
Speaker 1: make those deep runs into a season like this, I

100
00:05:42,400 –> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: think to be ready for twenty twenty one, there has

101
00:05:45,400 –> 00:05:49,280
Speaker 1: to be a backup mentally, physically and emotionally to try

102
00:05:49,279 –> 00:05:52,559
Speaker 1: to get recharged. You played the game, but think about

103
00:05:52,560 –> 00:05:55,640
Speaker 1: three and a half years in three years, well, I

104
00:05:55,640 –> 00:05:58,040
Speaker 1: think that you know, as a team in an organization,

105
00:05:58,080 –> 00:06:01,920
Speaker 1: even as a coach and stay aff you we want

106
00:06:01,920 –> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: to humble ourselves and always talk about the next task.

107
00:06:04,600 –> 00:06:07,320
Speaker 1: We want to humble ourselves talking about it’s always one play,

108
00:06:07,839 –> 00:06:10,679
Speaker 1: one season, one moment at a time. What’s that says?

109
00:06:10,720 –> 00:06:12,800
Speaker 1: Like you said, you do have to pause and after

110
00:06:12,839 –> 00:06:15,479
Speaker 1: a prolonged period, these three year window, you want to

111
00:06:15,480 –> 00:06:20,320
Speaker 1: pause and really be able to evaluate, reflect and respect

112
00:06:20,920 –> 00:06:24,120
Speaker 1: all the sacrifice that went on through that time period

113
00:06:25,200 –> 00:06:27,839
Speaker 1: and all the change that went on, and all the

114
00:06:27,920 –> 00:06:31,560
Speaker 1: expectations that went on with that change for players to

115
00:06:31,600 –> 00:06:34,240
Speaker 1: come into a new system, the new players, like like,

116
00:06:34,320 –> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 1: we haven’t had the same fifty three guys for three years,

117
00:06:37,600 –> 00:06:40,400
Speaker 1: so we have to pause and kind of respect the change.

118
00:06:40,480 –> 00:06:43,440
Speaker 1: Even though Pat Mahomes was constant, there was change going

119
00:06:43,480 –> 00:06:45,200
Speaker 1: on all around him. He’s had to throw in the

120
00:06:45,240 –> 00:06:49,039
Speaker 1: different receivers, different running backs, We’ve had a different defensive coordinator,

121
00:06:49,080 –> 00:06:52,160
Speaker 1: we had different schemes and philosophies on the defensive side

122
00:06:52,160 –> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 1: of the ball. So there’s been a lot of change

123
00:06:54,360 –> 00:06:57,440
Speaker 1: going on. But you have to pause and see how

124
00:06:57,560 –> 00:07:02,880
Speaker 1: each one of those placed, how everything has that domino effect,

125
00:07:02,880 –> 00:07:06,400
Speaker 1: that that ripple effect, and just look at it. Three

126
00:07:06,800 –> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: hundred sixty degree view. Right. You cannot ignore the forest

127
00:07:10,600 –> 00:07:12,640
Speaker 1: for the tree. Not because we’re so close to this

128
00:07:12,760 –> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: loss from the Super Bowl that we take time. We

129
00:07:15,920 –> 00:07:19,720
Speaker 1: don’t take time to appreciate all the victories, all the

130
00:07:19,760 –> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: playoff wins, all the left handed throws, underhanded throws, the

131
00:07:26,320 –> 00:07:30,840
Speaker 1: Rose Bowl shift, all the phenomenal things that has happened

132
00:07:30,880 –> 00:07:33,640
Speaker 1: over this three year period. We gotta take time. We

133
00:07:33,640 –> 00:07:36,760
Speaker 1: gotta take time, step back and look at it and

134
00:07:36,880 –> 00:07:40,120
Speaker 1: be able to really judge and evaluate how great this

135
00:07:40,320 –> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: three seasons has been, how phenomenal run has been. Because

136
00:07:44,240 –> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: I think I think with that, when we pause and

137
00:07:46,640 –> 00:07:48,800
Speaker 1: step back and look at it, it’ll give us a

138
00:07:48,880 –> 00:07:53,200
Speaker 1: chance to really relax and unwind, and that will lead

139
00:07:53,240 –> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 1: to us coming back in two twenty one refreshed focus

140
00:07:57,560 –> 00:08:00,840
Speaker 1: with the purpose of understanding what our goal is, what

141
00:08:00,960 –> 00:08:03,600
Speaker 1: the standard is, because now the standard is said high,

142
00:08:03,840 –> 00:08:06,400
Speaker 1: but it wasn’t just one season. This has been a

143
00:08:06,440 –> 00:08:10,440
Speaker 1: consistency over the last three seasons. This gives us an

144
00:08:10,520 –> 00:08:13,800
Speaker 1: expectation of greatness is going into two twenty one, and

145
00:08:13,880 –> 00:08:17,440
Speaker 1: that creates pressure of both the external and internal pressure

146
00:08:17,480 –> 00:08:19,480
Speaker 1: that has been there. But I think you said it

147
00:08:19,560 –> 00:08:22,040
Speaker 1: very well the whole relax, refresh. There’s got to be

148
00:08:22,120 –> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: some rest here. There’s got to be some rest because

149
00:08:24,560 –> 00:08:27,560
Speaker 1: there has not been any rest really after the eighteen

150
00:08:27,680 –> 00:08:30,560
Speaker 1: season to get you know, within inches to Super Bowl

151
00:08:30,600 –> 00:08:32,600
Speaker 1: fifty three, there was like can you get back? Can

152
00:08:32,640 –> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 1: you get back? That pressure was there starting right away

153
00:08:36,040 –> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: after that lost to New England in that AFC Championship game.

154
00:08:39,360 –> 00:08:41,520
Speaker 1: But they got back, they win it, they win the

155
00:08:41,520 –> 00:08:44,520
Speaker 1: whole shebang, and then they run it back to her

156
00:08:44,640 –> 00:08:48,120
Speaker 1: started almost right after that. So can the Chiefs get

157
00:08:48,120 –> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: back there again? They’re the favorite right now in the NFL. Yeah,

158
00:08:50,360 –> 00:08:52,240
Speaker 1: heck yeah they can. But I think to do so,

159
00:08:53,160 –> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 1: Like I think we agree here, there’s got to be

160
00:08:55,559 –> 00:08:57,720
Speaker 1: a backup. There’s got it. You’ve got to shut down

161
00:08:57,720 –> 00:08:59,920
Speaker 1: the injines. You can’t run full throttle on the scene

162
00:09:00,160 –> 00:09:04,839
Speaker 1: four tires for so long until you start blowing tires out.

163
00:09:04,920 –> 00:09:06,680
Speaker 1: Let me just let me just give you an example here.

164
00:09:06,880 –> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 1: I looked at four separate players and where this I

165
00:09:11,559 –> 00:09:13,000
Speaker 1: think it comes to mind. Let’s just break it down

166
00:09:13,040 –> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: to two. Because Patrick Mahomes, we know, in these three years,

167
00:09:16,040 –> 00:09:19,680
Speaker 1: has played thirty four hundred eighty eight snaps. He missed

168
00:09:19,679 –> 00:09:22,640
Speaker 1: two games in twenty nineteen with his injury, and then

169
00:09:22,679 –> 00:09:25,040
Speaker 1: he set out that game against the Chargers in Week

170
00:09:25,120 –> 00:09:28,559
Speaker 1: seventeen of twenty twenty. But let’s let’s put Patrick assiety.

171
00:09:28,559 –> 00:09:32,320
Speaker 1: He had the surgery this week on his foot. Travis

172
00:09:32,440 –> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 1: Kelsey to me, is exhibit a of where we’ve got

173
00:09:36,600 –> 00:09:40,600
Speaker 1: to get this guy some refresh time. He has played

174
00:09:40,960 –> 00:09:44,400
Speaker 1: three three hundred and eighty one snaps regular season and

175
00:09:44,480 –> 00:09:48,440
Speaker 1: postseason in three years. The only week he missed was

176
00:09:48,480 –> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: Week seventeen, the Charger game where we pulled all the

177
00:09:51,320 –> 00:09:55,400
Speaker 1: starters out. Got to get him some help at that position.

178
00:09:56,360 –> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 1: We have to also back him up and shut him

179
00:09:58,840 –> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 1: down a bit, because the Chiefs have wrote him really

180
00:10:01,960 –> 00:10:07,239
Speaker 1: hard and he’s done amazing things never never before accomplish

181
00:10:07,280 –> 00:10:09,960
Speaker 1: things in NFL history. Man, you talking about the work

182
00:10:09,960 –> 00:10:13,160
Speaker 1: ethic and the mindset of a guy like Travis Kelsey, Um,

183
00:10:13,360 –> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 1: I think that it’s it’s it’s something that’s he’s built

184
00:10:16,160 –> 00:10:18,160
Speaker 1: that way, and you can see it in his brother also.

185
00:10:18,200 –> 00:10:24,319
Speaker 1: They’re built to be successful, success driven, purpose passionate. I’m

186
00:10:24,440 –> 00:10:27,600
Speaker 1: gold orientated type athletes. Um. What are you talking about

187
00:10:27,679 –> 00:10:30,000
Speaker 1: him or his brother? Um? I think you see when

188
00:10:30,000 –> 00:10:32,920
Speaker 1: they share moments with each other, how how how how

189
00:10:32,960 –> 00:10:36,440
Speaker 1: competitive they are in everything they do. And so if

190
00:10:36,480 –> 00:10:39,920
Speaker 1: you organizationally from a top down, if we don’t shut

191
00:10:40,000 –> 00:10:42,880
Speaker 1: him down and actually ask him to push it away

192
00:10:42,920 –> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: from the film room, push away from the weight room,

193
00:10:46,160 –> 00:10:48,920
Speaker 1: push away from the on field training, have a moment

194
00:10:49,000 –> 00:10:52,280
Speaker 1: just to reflect and look at you know, paulse take

195
00:10:52,320 –> 00:10:55,680
Speaker 1: a second to pause and appreciate that three years that

196
00:10:55,720 –> 00:10:58,640
Speaker 1: he’s accomplished those great feats. It’s going to be almost

197
00:10:58,679 –> 00:11:03,199
Speaker 1: impossible to asking to start up another three years, because

198
00:11:03,240 –> 00:11:06,440
Speaker 1: I think that’s what athletes do. They just they stacked

199
00:11:06,440 –> 00:11:08,760
Speaker 1: a brick upon a brick, a great season upon a

200
00:11:08,760 –> 00:11:11,160
Speaker 1: great season, and before you know it, they’re five six

201
00:11:11,200 –> 00:11:15,520
Speaker 1: seasons in and their body decides to shut down. It’s

202
00:11:15,559 –> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: no more what your mindset is. It’s not anything about

203
00:11:18,000 –> 00:11:22,840
Speaker 1: being a lack of competition. You’re just emotionally physically burnt out.

204
00:11:23,360 –> 00:11:26,800
Speaker 1: To prevent that burnout syndrome, I think like you’re saying,

205
00:11:27,040 –> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 1: take a pause, relax, refresh, kind of reboot the system,

206
00:11:31,360 –> 00:11:34,680
Speaker 1: and then you come back like year one, right, two

207
00:11:34,960 –> 00:11:38,880
Speaker 1: twenty one, it’s not a continuation of the last three years.

208
00:11:39,200 –> 00:11:42,200
Speaker 1: Two twenty one is going to be year one of

209
00:11:42,280 –> 00:11:44,960
Speaker 1: another three or four year run that we need to

210
00:11:45,720 –> 00:11:49,520
Speaker 1: from from a corporate standpoint, from an organizational standpoint, but

211
00:11:49,679 –> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 1: each one of our players has to realize exactly how

212
00:11:53,600 –> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: much they exerted, how much they’s accomplished and achieved. They’ve

213
00:11:57,840 –> 00:12:00,520
Speaker 1: achieved some great things in these three years, and nothing

214
00:12:00,559 –> 00:12:02,959
Speaker 1: should be taken lightly just because of that last game

215
00:12:03,679 –> 00:12:05,920
Speaker 1: that we didn’t play our best. They understand that, but

216
00:12:06,000 –> 00:12:08,640
Speaker 1: in the scope of by three year period, they played

217
00:12:08,679 –> 00:12:11,880
Speaker 1: some amazing, outstanding football and they have definitely take this

218
00:12:12,160 –> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 1: organization in franchise to a higher level. Yeah, they said

219
00:12:15,480 –> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 1: NFL records, they said team records. It’s been an amazing

220
00:12:19,400 –> 00:12:22,200
Speaker 1: run of thirty eight and ten in the regular season,

221
00:12:22,679 –> 00:12:24,800
Speaker 1: fifteen and three in the division, in six and two

222
00:12:24,840 –> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. When you think prior to that, there

223
00:12:27,600 –> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 1: was one playoff win from nineteen ninety three up until

224
00:12:31,320 –> 00:12:34,360
Speaker 1: twenty fifteen, and then that’s the only one they had

225
00:12:34,480 –> 00:12:37,280
Speaker 1: until six playoff wins in three years. All right, So

226
00:12:37,320 –> 00:12:39,280
Speaker 1: we know with Kelsey and getting him some help too,

227
00:12:39,320 –> 00:12:41,960
Speaker 1: I think whether we’re looking at free agency SERI development

228
00:12:41,960 –> 00:12:44,559
Speaker 1: of guys we’ll get to that in a second, or

229
00:12:44,679 –> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 1: looking at the draft times where Kelsey sets out a

230
00:12:47,400 –> 00:12:50,320
Speaker 1: series or put you know, because Kelsey will work nine

231
00:12:50,320 –> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 1: on seven in the run game, he’ll work seven on

232
00:12:52,679 –> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 1: seven as a receiver. It’s just everything’s been put on

233
00:12:55,000 –> 00:12:58,439
Speaker 1: his plate. Another guy that comes to mind, it’s just astonishing.

234
00:12:58,440 –> 00:13:01,360
Speaker 1: When I was digging into Tire Matthew, the Honey Badger,

235
00:13:01,400 –> 00:13:02,800
Speaker 1: because I had to go back and look at his

236
00:13:02,840 –> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 1: Houston year. He was not here in twenty eighteen. That’s

237
00:13:05,440 –> 00:13:07,880
Speaker 1: part of your change, guys moving in and out. It

238
00:13:07,920 –> 00:13:09,920
Speaker 1: hasn’t been the same for three years. Tyren Matthew the

239
00:13:09,920 –> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: Honey Badger fits that category. But in Houston, he had

240
00:13:13,040 –> 00:13:16,440
Speaker 1: a playoff game in a regular season. Tyrn Matthew in

241
00:13:16,480 –> 00:13:20,960
Speaker 1: those three years has played three thousand, six hundred and

242
00:13:21,000 –> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 1: two snaps. The only week he’s missed was Week seventeen

243
00:13:25,640 –> 00:13:28,200
Speaker 1: of twenty twenty when we pulled the starters out and

244
00:13:28,200 –> 00:13:32,560
Speaker 1: played the backups against the Los Angeles Chargers. He’s another

245
00:13:32,559 –> 00:13:35,600
Speaker 1: one to me because I thought that rest gave him energy.

246
00:13:35,880 –> 00:13:38,199
Speaker 1: He hit the playoffs and that was the old Honeybadger.

247
00:13:38,240 –> 00:13:39,840
Speaker 1: I thought he was wearing down a little bit, just

248
00:13:39,920 –> 00:13:44,480
Speaker 1: tired mentally, emotionally and physically tired. Got to get him

249
00:13:44,480 –> 00:13:47,719
Speaker 1: some help. Is that Thornhill is at Armani Watts is

250
00:13:47,760 –> 00:13:51,520
Speaker 1: at somebody else. But also for the Honey Badger to backup, refresh,

251
00:13:51,679 –> 00:13:55,040
Speaker 1: take a breath, shut the throttle down, change the tires,

252
00:13:55,040 –> 00:13:57,920
Speaker 1: and change the oil. To me, the two guys, Kelsey

253
00:13:58,240 –> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 1: and the Honeymadger need this pause as much as anybody. Yeah,

254
00:14:03,080 –> 00:14:05,640
Speaker 1: And what they’re gonna learn from it is that sometimes

255
00:14:05,679 –> 00:14:11,240
Speaker 1: by taking a step back, allowing you to rest, sharpen

256
00:14:11,280 –> 00:14:15,320
Speaker 1: your axes, sharpen your tools. When you come back and

257
00:14:15,320 –> 00:14:17,760
Speaker 1: start chopping that wood, it spits that wood so much

258
00:14:17,800 –> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: quicker they can. You’ll get so much You’ll become so

259
00:14:20,720 –> 00:14:24,240
Speaker 1: much more effective. Right, You’ll have more impact on your teammates.

260
00:14:24,280 –> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: You’ll have more impact on plays. You’ll be more of

261
00:14:26,600 –> 00:14:29,400
Speaker 1: a big playmaker. You’ll be all these things. When you’re

262
00:14:29,440 –> 00:14:32,080
Speaker 1: thinking to yourself, I gotta be there for my guys.

263
00:14:32,120 –> 00:14:33,840
Speaker 1: I gotta be out there on the field, on the

264
00:14:33,920 –> 00:14:38,440
Speaker 1: practice field, in the weight room, leading the meetings, emotionally, physically, mentally.

265
00:14:38,480 –> 00:14:40,320
Speaker 1: I gotta be there. I gotta be there so they

266
00:14:40,360 –> 00:14:42,400
Speaker 1: can count on me. I gotta be there at every moment.

267
00:14:42,960 –> 00:14:46,520
Speaker 1: Sometimes you gotta slide back a little bit, and sometimes,

268
00:14:46,800 –> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: especially with Honey Badger by him removing himself, it will

269
00:14:50,920 –> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 1: allow thrown heel to grow. It will allow one heel

270
00:14:54,480 –> 00:14:58,280
Speaker 1: to be forced to grow and develop leadership skills, not

271
00:14:58,400 –> 00:15:01,320
Speaker 1: depending on Honey Badger. And now we will have two

272
00:15:01,800 –> 00:15:05,640
Speaker 1: awesome forces. But that will never occur. If Honey Badgers

273
00:15:05,760 –> 00:15:10,400
Speaker 1: always the vocal leader and he’s always calling everybody to arms,

274
00:15:10,440 –> 00:15:13,680
Speaker 1: and he’s you know, leading the chance to begin the

275
00:15:13,680 –> 00:15:17,080
Speaker 1: game and all these things, it allows everybody else around

276
00:15:17,120 –> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 1: them to release and and and I feel that calling

277
00:15:21,280 –> 00:15:23,440
Speaker 1: on their life. So there is going to be a

278
00:15:23,440 –> 00:15:25,360
Speaker 1: period I think this off season. You say, if we

279
00:15:25,440 –> 00:15:27,680
Speaker 1: take it the right way and approach it the right

280
00:15:27,720 –> 00:15:31,320
Speaker 1: way with a pause, with our not only a team base,

281
00:15:31,680 –> 00:15:35,720
Speaker 1: but looking at that like you said, Pat Mahomes, Kelsey

282
00:15:35,840 –> 00:15:39,040
Speaker 1: and Honey Badger, if some of our key leaders just

283
00:15:39,080 –> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 1: step back a little bit and allow other people to

284
00:15:41,880 –> 00:15:45,560
Speaker 1: grow around them, allow people to take some responsibility, some

285
00:15:45,600 –> 00:15:49,560
Speaker 1: added responsibilities, some added commitment and sacrifice, those guys will

286
00:15:49,600 –> 00:15:52,480
Speaker 1: grow around them and those leaders can just sharpen their skills.

287
00:15:52,520 –> 00:15:54,080
Speaker 1: On the side, you don’t always got to use your

288
00:15:54,240 –> 00:15:56,960
Speaker 1: X to make it more effective. Sometimes you take some

289
00:15:57,040 –> 00:15:59,960
Speaker 1: time to sharpen it and then when you can play

290
00:16:00,240 –> 00:16:02,160
Speaker 1: field man. It’s come to do that wood like butter,

291
00:16:02,560 –> 00:16:05,680
Speaker 1: like a knife to butter. So the second part of

292
00:16:05,680 –> 00:16:09,800
Speaker 1: this calling this episode ppe personal protective equipment, and we

293
00:16:09,840 –> 00:16:11,680
Speaker 1: wanted to honor the folks that have to wear that

294
00:16:11,760 –> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 1: every day. So first’s pause of our DTKPP here. The

295
00:16:16,920 –> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 1: second one is perspective, and we were already hit on this.

296
00:16:19,160 –> 00:16:21,920
Speaker 1: You’ve hit on this to try to keep it in perspective.

297
00:16:21,960 –> 00:16:26,000
Speaker 1: But I wanted to focus here of not letting the

298
00:16:26,040 –> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 1: one game, the loss to Tampa Bay in Super Bowl

299
00:16:29,280 –> 00:16:31,480
Speaker 1: fifty five, all of a sudden you said, you can’t

300
00:16:31,520 –> 00:16:34,000
Speaker 1: see the forest because of the trees. Will you burn

301
00:16:34,080 –> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: down the forest? Sometimes just be based on a sixty

302
00:16:37,720 –> 00:16:42,120
Speaker 1: minute game, right, that was the last DTK was sixty minutes. Well,

303
00:16:42,960 –> 00:16:45,760
Speaker 1: the sixty minutes doesn’t roast the whole three years of

304
00:16:45,880 –> 00:16:48,880
Speaker 1: what’s happened or what can happen the next three years. Now,

305
00:16:48,960 –> 00:16:50,760
Speaker 1: let me let me just look at this. Historically, there

306
00:16:50,760 –> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: have been let’s just take the last twelve Super Bowls.

307
00:16:53,560 –> 00:16:58,280
Speaker 1: Let’s go back to two, all right, In those twelve

308
00:16:58,520 –> 00:17:02,640
Speaker 1: Super Bowls, seventeen have never been back Arizona, NA, the

309
00:17:02,760 –> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: Colson O nine, the Steelers in ten. I’m going through this.

310
00:17:08,680 –> 00:17:13,560
Speaker 1: These are teams that lost the Super Bowl. Carolina in fifteen,

311
00:17:14,080 –> 00:17:18,760
Speaker 1: Seattle after losing in fourteen, Atlantic had that comeback on him.

312
00:17:18,800 –> 00:17:23,440
Speaker 1: That’s crushed him. They haven’t been back sixteen. I’m talking

313
00:17:23,480 –> 00:17:27,240
Speaker 1: about teams that have lost. San Francisco came back twice

314
00:17:27,320 –> 00:17:30,080
Speaker 1: after losing, played US last year and they lost to

315
00:17:30,119 –> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: Baltimore in twelve. Came back, but they lost both those games.

316
00:17:33,720 –> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 1: All right. Peyton Manning lost in thirteen, He got destroyed

317
00:17:38,320 –> 00:17:42,359
Speaker 1: forty eight to nine by the Seattle Seahawks. After the

318
00:17:42,440 –> 00:17:45,720
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen season Super Bowl forty eight. He came back

319
00:17:45,720 –> 00:17:48,280
Speaker 1: two years later and won Super Bowl fifty with that

320
00:17:48,440 –> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: really good defense that in New England. That’s it. The

321
00:17:50,960 –> 00:17:54,320
Speaker 1: other seven teams have not been able but lost the

322
00:17:54,359 –> 00:17:58,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl have never been back since. Here’s the point.

323
00:17:59,119 –> 00:18:01,919
Speaker 1: The Kansas City Chiefs are built more like Peyton Manning,

324
00:18:01,960 –> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 1: Broncos or the Brady Patriots. They have a chance to

325
00:18:06,320 –> 00:18:10,400
Speaker 1: come back. But there is a tendency here shop both externally,

326
00:18:10,520 –> 00:18:14,400
Speaker 1: your enemies and your detractors and your haters, and then

327
00:18:14,520 –> 00:18:19,320
Speaker 1: internally to overreact. We’re gonna burn down the forest because

328
00:18:19,359 –> 00:18:21,840
Speaker 1: one tree was on fire. It’s a big tree, the

329
00:18:21,840 –> 00:18:25,280
Speaker 1: biggest spreadish second biggest breadish tree in the forest. But

330
00:18:25,440 –> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 1: you don’t burn the forest down to go, hey, that

331
00:18:27,160 –> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 1: tree’s burnt, man. I mean the word perspective is the

332
00:18:32,200 –> 00:18:36,479
Speaker 1: correct term to use because I think theoretically and as

333
00:18:36,520 –> 00:18:39,400
Speaker 1: as far as a philosophy, I speak to a lot

334
00:18:39,400 –> 00:18:41,640
Speaker 1: of the coaches pretty often, and then one thing they

335
00:18:41,680 –> 00:18:44,160
Speaker 1: know that I give them the little nugget I give

336
00:18:44,200 –> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 1: them over and over again. The process, the process, the

337
00:18:48,800 –> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: process is always greater than the product. And even if

338
00:18:52,080 –> 00:18:55,640
Speaker 1: that product does generate a Super Bowl victory, you don’t

339
00:18:55,680 –> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: forget about the process, and you don’t stop fine tuning it,

340
00:18:58,600 –> 00:19:00,560
Speaker 1: you don’t stop working on it. You all always working

341
00:19:00,600 –> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 1: on your craft. You’re always working on how to develop

342
00:19:03,520 –> 00:19:08,359
Speaker 1: a more efficient, a more effective player, a more a

343
00:19:08,440 –> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: more valuefense, a more aggressive style, better on third dayn

344
00:19:13,080 –> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 1: better in the red zone. You’re always looking at your

345
00:19:15,440 –> 00:19:20,119
Speaker 1: team in all these different measure analytics and measurables to

346
00:19:20,160 –> 00:19:22,760
Speaker 1: see how can your team become more effective on Sunday

347
00:19:23,000 –> 00:19:26,240
Speaker 1: it’s gonna equate to winning more ball games, and sometimes

348
00:19:26,320 –> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: those tweaks, when when it comes to a Super Bowl loss,

349
00:19:30,440 –> 00:19:34,680
Speaker 1: you forget about the process, the product. We didn’t score

350
00:19:34,680 –> 00:19:37,680
Speaker 1: a touchdown, Mitch, we didn’t score a touchdown. Let’s throw

351
00:19:37,760 –> 00:19:41,120
Speaker 1: all the playbooks out. Let’s let’s let’s rebuild it. Let’s

352
00:19:41,200 –> 00:19:43,400
Speaker 1: let’s let’s throw it all out and rebuild it from

353
00:19:43,400 –> 00:19:47,640
Speaker 1: the ground up. You’re throwing away so many great unstoppable

354
00:19:47,920 –> 00:19:53,399
Speaker 1: offensive plays and philosophies and defensive red zones and in techniques.

355
00:19:53,960 –> 00:19:58,080
Speaker 1: Why would you do that? It was one moment, the perspective.

356
00:19:58,160 –> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: One moment. We had one game where our guys didn’t

357
00:20:02,000 –> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: rise to occasion. Pat the ball still was there, under

358
00:20:06,800 –> 00:20:11,120
Speaker 1: tremendous pressure, multiple pressures, he still was able to get

359
00:20:11,119 –> 00:20:15,399
Speaker 1: the ball to key places, and for some reason the

360
00:20:15,440 –> 00:20:18,719
Speaker 1: receipts we just didn’t complete the balls. It was a

361
00:20:18,760 –> 00:20:21,640
Speaker 1: momentary lack of focus that led us to get into

362
00:20:21,680 –> 00:20:23,920
Speaker 1: a point in that game where we had to go

363
00:20:23,920 –> 00:20:26,520
Speaker 1: ahead and say, Tampa today, you were the better team.

364
00:20:26,640 –> 00:20:29,240
Speaker 1: You were, the more aggressive, you had, the better game playing,

365
00:20:29,400 –> 00:20:32,520
Speaker 1: your players played better. We’re gonna have to bow down

366
00:20:32,600 –> 00:20:34,840
Speaker 1: and just go ahead and say you won this game.

367
00:20:35,760 –> 00:20:38,840
Speaker 1: But by no means, by no means, does that mean

368
00:20:38,840 –> 00:20:42,200
Speaker 1: that the process we used to get there, Like you said,

369
00:20:42,240 –> 00:20:44,480
Speaker 1: from three seasons, we’ve been we’ve been buying tune of

370
00:20:44,520 –> 00:20:47,479
Speaker 1: this process. You do not throw that process out the window.

371
00:20:48,040 –> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: You continue to grind and grind and grind. Understand from

372
00:20:52,320 –> 00:20:55,200
Speaker 1: a prospective standpoint, how to get a little bit better

373
00:20:55,200 –> 00:20:58,639
Speaker 1: in certain details. How to work on your team getting

374
00:20:58,640 –> 00:21:03,320
Speaker 1: even closer as a family, drawn closer, better communication, more

375
00:21:03,400 –> 00:21:08,520
Speaker 1: trust your leaders from the leaders right less, some penalties.

376
00:21:08,560 –> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 1: We’ve got to sharpen up in that area to make

377
00:21:11,119 –> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 1: us even more potent, even more explosive, defensive, even more

378
00:21:16,400 –> 00:21:20,840
Speaker 1: stout in the red zone. In the twenty twenty one season. Yeah,

379
00:21:20,880 –> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 1: and you look at it again. The Cardinals of O

380
00:21:23,880 –> 00:21:26,520
Speaker 1: eight to Colts of O nine, the Steelers of ten,

381
00:21:27,920 –> 00:21:31,399
Speaker 1: the Panthers of fifteen, Falcons of sixteen, Seattle of fourteen,

382
00:21:31,960 –> 00:21:33,960
Speaker 1: Seven different teams that have not been back to the

383
00:21:33,960 –> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 1: Super Bowl since losing. And sometimes not all all those cases,

384
00:21:38,600 –> 00:21:41,120
Speaker 1: but in many cases, if you study those teams, it’s

385
00:21:41,119 –> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 1: been an overreaction to a Super Bowl loss that actually

386
00:21:44,400 –> 00:21:47,440
Speaker 1: set them farther away from getting back to the super

387
00:21:47,440 –> 00:21:50,399
Speaker 1: Bowl than so it ends up being counterproductive. All Right.

388
00:21:50,440 –> 00:21:54,640
Speaker 1: The final part again, ppe pause, the rest that’s needed,

389
00:21:54,720 –> 00:21:57,320
Speaker 1: especially for some of these veterans. Kelsey and Matthew and

390
00:21:57,359 –> 00:22:01,639
Speaker 1: others perspective and then re energy. Now, this is going

391
00:22:01,680 –> 00:22:05,040
Speaker 1: to sound like a contradiction because you’re saying, wait, Mitch

392
00:22:05,080 –> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 1: and Shop, you’re saying this team needs to back off

393
00:22:07,160 –> 00:22:09,960
Speaker 1: and shut down. They do. Coach read one of his

394
00:22:10,000 –> 00:22:13,760
Speaker 1: four postulates is to create energy. I’m looking for the

395
00:22:13,800 –> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: next sixty days, ninety days, younger players who can develop

396
00:22:19,080 –> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 1: that now does give you energy? We already talked about

397
00:22:21,760 –> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 1: one Thornhill. Maybe on the defensive side, a guy like

398
00:22:24,600 –> 00:22:28,359
Speaker 1: Lagarius Sneed, Tim Ward. There’s guys in the crock pot

399
00:22:28,680 –> 00:22:31,959
Speaker 1: that we talk about that have been developing. How does

400
00:22:32,000 –> 00:22:34,280
Speaker 1: Willie Gay Jr. Come back from his surgery? Because he’s

401
00:22:34,280 –> 00:22:36,159
Speaker 1: an energy. Gibbert looks like him and he can be

402
00:22:36,200 –> 00:22:39,919
Speaker 1: explosive plays. Offensive line has got a lot of discussion

403
00:22:40,320 –> 00:22:43,040
Speaker 1: since Super Bowl fifty five and the loss to Tampa Bay.

404
00:22:43,080 –> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 1: We saw that backups had to play in different spots.

405
00:22:46,720 –> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: Got young guys like you, Siera, Durant, Martinez, Rankin, even

406
00:22:50,359 –> 00:22:53,960
Speaker 1: Darryl Williams, who is the offensive lineman, Daryl Williams from

407
00:22:53,960 –> 00:22:57,920
Speaker 1: Mississippi State that basically had a red shirt season. This

408
00:22:58,080 –> 00:23:01,000
Speaker 1: sounds like a contradition because you’re saying, well, wait a minute,

409
00:23:01,000 –> 00:23:04,200
Speaker 1: you guys got to back off and shut down a bit. Yes,

410
00:23:04,760 –> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: but I’m looking for younger guys too, churn developed, create energy,

411
00:23:08,880 –> 00:23:11,760
Speaker 1: fill in spots. Yes, what can we what can we

412
00:23:11,800 –> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 1: find now new to help us have some new energy

413
00:23:14,760 –> 00:23:17,520
Speaker 1: going into twenty twenty one. All right, well, I’m not

414
00:23:17,560 –> 00:23:19,680
Speaker 1: good at math. So we know we got fifty three

415
00:23:19,680 –> 00:23:22,440
Speaker 1: players on the staff. We know we got ten or

416
00:23:22,440 –> 00:23:25,440
Speaker 1: some on the practice squads, so that’s about sixty three guys.

417
00:23:25,760 –> 00:23:28,200
Speaker 1: But we know on the average NFL roster, right when

418
00:23:28,359 –> 00:23:30,240
Speaker 1: when you talk about the true starters, the guys that

419
00:23:30,280 –> 00:23:34,280
Speaker 1: are playing the real meat of your snaps, it’s right

420
00:23:34,359 –> 00:23:37,320
Speaker 1: eleven on office, that’s just twenty two. That’s about thirty

421
00:23:37,359 –> 00:23:40,919
Speaker 1: and so more players that are just spots. They come in,

422
00:23:41,000 –> 00:23:43,560
Speaker 1: they come in now and now and now they haven’t

423
00:23:43,600 –> 00:23:47,960
Speaker 1: played the exhausting games like you said from a Honey

424
00:23:47,960 –> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 1: Badger or Pat Mahomes or Kelsey. So for those thirty guys,

425
00:23:51,880 –> 00:23:55,560
Speaker 1: why everybody, you know, the starters are pushing back, getting

426
00:23:55,560 –> 00:23:59,200
Speaker 1: some perspective, pausing, you know, taking some time to look

427
00:23:59,200 –> 00:24:02,760
Speaker 1: at the last three years. Those young guys are time

428
00:24:02,840 –> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: to amp up. This is time for those guys to

429
00:24:05,920 –> 00:24:09,080
Speaker 1: dive deeper in the playbook, understand their job, not only

430
00:24:09,119 –> 00:24:13,119
Speaker 1: their opportunity. They’re alignment assignment, but now stretch beyond that.

431
00:24:13,240 –> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: Understand what the guy beside you, to the left, the

432
00:24:15,040 –> 00:24:16,399
Speaker 1: guys to the right, the guy in front of you,

433
00:24:16,480 –> 00:24:19,560
Speaker 1: and the guy behind you. Understand your position. It’s called

434
00:24:19,640 –> 00:24:23,240
Speaker 1: knowing your position from a three hundred and sixty degree viewpoint.

435
00:24:23,520 –> 00:24:25,600
Speaker 1: I know what I’m doing, but I also know the

436
00:24:25,640 –> 00:24:27,240
Speaker 1: guys in front of me what they’re doing, the guy

437
00:24:27,280 –> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 1: behind me, and the guys on my flanks. If I

438
00:24:29,840 –> 00:24:32,480
Speaker 1: know what everyone is around me doing, it will make

439
00:24:32,520 –> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: you a better player, more productive, more fast, and more efficient.

440
00:24:36,040 –> 00:24:39,880
Speaker 1: You’ll make more plays, you’ll get placed, you’ll make less mistakes. Right,

441
00:24:40,480 –> 00:24:43,119
Speaker 1: all of these things work hand in hand. Usually with

442
00:24:43,280 –> 00:24:45,680
Speaker 1: young guys, you just want them to know their job.

443
00:24:45,760 –> 00:24:50,240
Speaker 1: You understand. The playbook is so big, it’s so vast. Man,

444
00:24:50,280 –> 00:24:52,280
Speaker 1: if you can just learn your spot, you can help

445
00:24:52,320 –> 00:24:55,960
Speaker 1: this team win. Well, guess what, it’s not, you’re one anymore.

446
00:24:56,119 –> 00:24:59,280
Speaker 1: It’s time for the young guys to take responsibility and

447
00:24:59,440 –> 00:25:01,440
Speaker 1: understand and what it means to be a pros pro,

448
00:25:01,760 –> 00:25:05,400
Speaker 1: what it means to be a more than just an

449
00:25:05,520 –> 00:25:08,520
Speaker 1: ancillary player, just a guy who was asked to come

450
00:25:08,560 –> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: in on a nickel or dime package. Everybody needs to

451
00:25:11,680 –> 00:25:16,120
Speaker 1: accept the responsibility of what the guys are doing around them, right,

452
00:25:16,400 –> 00:25:19,600
Speaker 1: and energy to the room because you know what’s going

453
00:25:19,640 –> 00:25:22,720
Speaker 1: on all around you that as energy. We say energy

454
00:25:22,840 –> 00:25:26,640
Speaker 1: is never destroyed, right, It’s never created, it’s never destroyed,

455
00:25:26,720 –> 00:25:29,680
Speaker 1: it’s only transferred. So if we need more energy for

456
00:25:29,960 –> 00:25:33,359
Speaker 1: our starters, it has to come from the guys under them,

457
00:25:33,400 –> 00:25:37,040
Speaker 1: pushing them by that on performance is pushing them and

458
00:25:37,160 –> 00:25:40,320
Speaker 1: raising them guys on game days to even perform at

459
00:25:40,320 –> 00:25:43,640
