10
00:00:32,400 –> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 1: three sixty Vodka. We’re entitling this episode in an instant,

11
00:00:37,360 –> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 1: In an instant, This was not the anticipated episode of

12
00:00:41,040 –> 00:00:43,559
Speaker 1: Defending the Kingdom, but we had to adjust based on

13
00:00:43,560 –> 00:00:46,320
Speaker 1: what happened Wednesday morning when the word came down that

14
00:00:46,400 –> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers had tested positive for COVID and

15
00:00:50,640 –> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: was not vaccinating. Yeah, it’s been a crazy day, so

16
00:00:52,840 –> 00:00:55,279
Speaker 1: we shoot this on Wednesdays. So I’m glad we got

17
00:00:55,280 –> 00:00:57,000
Speaker 1: that news when we did, because we would have shot

18
00:00:57,040 –> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 1: an entire episode that we’d have to scrap. But crazy

19
00:00:59,760 –> 00:01:03,480
Speaker 1: more finding out that perhaps one of the best quarterbacks

20
00:01:03,480 –> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 1: of all time and one of the best quarterbacks in

21
00:01:05,600 –> 00:01:08,000
Speaker 1: the league right now isn’t going to go here in

22
00:01:08,080 –> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 1: this game. Really changes the whole dynamic of this game

23
00:01:10,680 –> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: because we were billing this as Mahomes verse Rogers. How

24
00:01:13,920 –> 00:01:15,520
Speaker 1: do you slow down Aaron Rodgers here in this game

25
00:01:15,520 –> 00:01:17,160
Speaker 1: where the Chiefs are trying to build some momentum and

26
00:01:17,160 –> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: turn their season around, and he’s not going to play

27
00:01:19,280 –> 00:01:22,160
Speaker 1: on Sunday. Let’s take the COVID issue first. And by

28
00:01:22,160 –> 00:01:24,319
Speaker 1: the way, we have somebody, we have our list of folks.

29
00:01:24,360 –> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, around the world. Let’s take her around

30
00:01:26,360 –> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 1: the world the world that’s sponsored by somebody we really

31
00:01:28,720 –> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: should and that can help sponsor the road show that

32
00:01:30,840 –> 00:01:34,200
Speaker 1: we’re then going on. That’s our first stop. Well that’s

33
00:01:34,240 –> 00:01:36,880
Speaker 1: what I’m gonna say here. So the fan from Uzbekistan

Speaker 1: City reached out this week. Then someones I say local,

43
00:02:02,520 –> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 1: people then. Also a fan I meant to mention a

44
00:02:05,000 –> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 1: few weeks ago deemed me on Twitter from Seymour, Wisconsin,

45
00:02:08,840 –> 00:02:12,799
Speaker 1: which is fifteen miles from Green Bay. Yeah, Seymour, Wisconsin

46
00:02:12,880 –> 00:02:14,560
Speaker 1: is Yeah, they listened to defending the Kingdom. I want

47
00:02:14,600 –> 00:02:16,720
Speaker 1: them flying there. She’s flagged this week for all the

48
00:02:16,760 –> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: packers and all that she’s heads to see this week.

49
00:02:19,280 –> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 1: They are behind enemy lions. Sure, and we need all

50
00:02:22,120 –> 00:02:24,560
Speaker 1: the intel you can give us because things have changed.

51
00:02:25,080 –> 00:02:27,880
Speaker 1: Now going back to a serious note here though, is

52
00:02:28,000 –> 00:02:30,520
Speaker 1: let’s talk about the COVID part of this. First. You

53
00:02:30,600 –> 00:02:33,239
Speaker 1: and I were on zoom calls before training camp that

54
00:02:33,400 –> 00:02:36,080
Speaker 1: came down from the National Football League and one after

55
00:02:36,120 –> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 1: training camp that I remember where the message was loud

56
00:02:39,480 –> 00:02:44,239
Speaker 1: and clear. I mean, this was emphatic and that is hey, yes,

57
00:02:44,280 –> 00:02:47,880
Speaker 1: we’re progressing in the country in trying to beat COVID.

58
00:02:48,639 –> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: But vaccination of course was encouraged, but it was also

59
00:02:52,480 –> 00:02:54,519
Speaker 1: stated there’s not going to be as much leeway in

60
00:02:54,560 –> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: twenty twenty one as there was in twenty twenty And basically,

61
00:02:58,760 –> 00:03:02,200
Speaker 1: if you were unvaccinated as a player or any employee

62
00:03:02,280 –> 00:03:05,480
Speaker 1: of a National Football League team, you would be treated

63
00:03:05,720 –> 00:03:08,120
Speaker 1: as if it was twenty twenty, meaning if you test

64
00:03:08,160 –> 00:03:10,760
Speaker 1: it positive, you’re back to those old Cobald rules, which

65
00:03:10,840 –> 00:03:14,200
Speaker 1: is ten days out your quarantine for ten days. That’s

66
00:03:14,200 –> 00:03:16,520
Speaker 1: where Aaron Rodgers is. Yeah, that’s where he is right now.

67
00:03:16,560 –> 00:03:20,360
Speaker 1: And what’s the best quality of player can have. It’s availability,

68
00:03:20,520 –> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 1: right and as good as Aaron Rodgers is, like I said,

69
00:03:22,600 –> 00:03:24,720
Speaker 1: one of the best players of all time, he can’t

70
00:03:24,720 –> 00:03:26,679
Speaker 1: be out there to help his team on Sunday. And

71
00:03:27,360 –> 00:03:29,600
Speaker 1: that’s tough and that’s a reality he’s gonna have to

72
00:03:29,600 –> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: live with here and the Packers will have to figure out.

73
00:03:32,240 –> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 1: But that’s part of this whole thing, and it was

74
00:03:34,639 –> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 1: part of the deal last year too, as you’re not

75
00:03:36,440 –> 00:03:38,600
Speaker 1: just going up against the opponent and trying to keep

76
00:03:38,640 –> 00:03:41,080
Speaker 1: up in the standings. Football is hard enough, but if

77
00:03:41,120 –> 00:03:43,480
Speaker 1: you can’t have your best player out there, that’s tough.

78
00:03:43,480 –> 00:03:45,800
Speaker 1: If you’re the Packers. NFL said that we’re not moving

79
00:03:45,840 –> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: games around. We’re not going to shift them around like

80
00:03:47,720 –> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 1: last year, you gotta here’s the rules. Follow the rules.

81
00:03:51,040 –> 00:03:54,920
Speaker 1: You could even forfeit a game as a potential with

82
00:03:55,000 –> 00:03:57,160
Speaker 1: the National Football League rules. So it was there. I

83
00:03:57,160 –> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 1: mean it was in italics. It was as big a

84
00:03:59,280 –> 00:04:02,960
Speaker 1: font as you to put right there on your surface.

85
00:04:03,000 –> 00:04:06,160
Speaker 1: Pro right, it’s right there, like, here’s the rules. Follow it.

86
00:04:06,400 –> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 1: And now all of a sudden, in the middle of

87
00:04:07,640 –> 00:04:10,080
Speaker 1: the season, one of the top players in this league,

88
00:04:10,080 –> 00:04:12,680
Speaker 1: one of the poster guys, if you will, has tested

89
00:04:12,680 –> 00:04:15,200
Speaker 1: positive for COVID and will not play in this game

90
00:04:15,240 –> 00:04:19,719
Speaker 1: against the Kansas City Chiefs. So the irony here is

91
00:04:19,839 –> 00:04:22,800
Speaker 1: that ever since Patrick Mahomes became the QB one of

92
00:04:22,839 –> 00:04:25,800
Speaker 1: the Chiefs in twenty eighteen, the world could not wait

93
00:04:26,120 –> 00:04:30,080
Speaker 1: for a Mahomes versus Rodgers matchup. Twenty nineteen. It’s the cycle,

94
00:04:30,320 –> 00:04:32,120
Speaker 1: all right. The AFC West is going to play the

95
00:04:32,240 –> 00:04:36,200
Speaker 1: NFC North. He gets hurt the week before Mahomes does

96
00:04:36,480 –> 00:04:39,160
Speaker 1: in a dislocated kneecap against Denver, and it was Matt

97
00:04:39,200 –> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: Moore against Aaron Rodgers. That’s the matchup everybody wanted, well,

98
00:04:42,640 –> 00:04:44,600
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs almost won that game too. Is the

99
00:04:44,640 –> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 1: crazy thing. If you’re wondering how important Aaron Rodgers is

100
00:04:47,800 –> 00:04:50,080
Speaker 1: to the Packers. Look back at that game and what

101
00:04:50,240 –> 00:04:53,039
Speaker 1: ended up being the game winning touchdown when Aaron Rodgers

102
00:04:53,120 –> 00:04:55,359
Speaker 1: was I think trying to throw the ball away but

103
00:04:55,520 –> 00:04:57,360
Speaker 1: ends up slinging it for a touchdown was one of

104
00:04:57,360 –> 00:05:00,000
Speaker 1: the most incredible passes I’ve ever seen. Very few players

105
00:05:00,080 –> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: maybe Patrick Mahomes can make that throw, and Aaron Rodgers can,

106
00:05:03,520 –> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: so the guy is once again one of the greatest

107
00:05:06,080 –> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 1: ever to do it. Him not being out there is

108
00:05:07,800 –> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: a huge, huge deal. We also almost got this in

109
00:05:10,240 –> 00:05:13,680
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl in twenty nineteen, but the Packers lost

110
00:05:13,680 –> 00:05:16,400
Speaker 1: the NFC Championship Game for San Francisco. And then last

111
00:05:16,480 –> 00:05:18,320
Speaker 1: year we almost got it in the Super Bowl again,

112
00:05:18,640 –> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 1: but they lose the NFC Championship Game to Tampa Bay.

113
00:05:21,200 –> 00:05:23,800
Speaker 1: So one day we’ll get Rodgers versus Mahomes, but not

114
00:05:23,839 –> 00:05:26,520
Speaker 1: this Sunday. Well Rogers being a Packers uniform though, when

115
00:05:26,560 –> 00:05:28,760
Speaker 1: he gets that matchup question. But here’s the deal, you

116
00:05:28,760 –> 00:05:30,920
Speaker 1: have to wait four years, right, the only cycle back

117
00:05:30,920 –> 00:05:34,040
Speaker 1: against the NFC North every whoa whoa, Wait a minute,

118
00:05:34,279 –> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: it’s the seventeenth game. We’re gonna add a seventeenth game

119
00:05:37,560 –> 00:05:40,680
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty one, and look who’s matched up. It’s

120
00:05:40,720 –> 00:05:42,720
Speaker 1: the Packers in the Chiefs. We don’t have to wait

121
00:05:42,760 –> 00:05:45,360
Speaker 1: four years, nor does the NFL World A match made

122
00:05:45,360 –> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: in New York. And Wednesday morning, Aaron Rodgers test positive

123
00:05:49,640 –> 00:05:52,400
Speaker 1: for COVID as an unvaccinated player, and now it’s going

124
00:05:52,440 –> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 1: to be Jordan Love against Patrick Mahomes. There’s some irony

125
00:05:55,480 –> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 1: here somewhere, Yeah, there sure is. And Jordan Love is

126
00:05:57,839 –> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: interesting here because it’s been kind of awkward in Green

127
00:06:01,560 –> 00:06:03,760
Speaker 1: Bay because they draft Jordan Love two years ago, a

128
00:06:03,880 –> 00:06:07,600
Speaker 1: number twenty six overall, and he’s like the air apparent, right,

129
00:06:07,600 –> 00:06:09,680
Speaker 1: But Aaron Rodgers is like, hey, I’m still here, still

130
00:06:09,680 –> 00:06:11,720
Speaker 1: playing at a high level. When’s the MVP last year?

131
00:06:11,760 –> 00:06:14,320
Speaker 1: And it’s been kind of awkward with Jordan Love in

132
00:06:14,400 –> 00:06:17,279
Speaker 1: Green Bay. And he’s a polarizing player because in college

133
00:06:17,279 –> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: at Utah State, had a lot of tools, has a

134
00:06:19,960 –> 00:06:22,960
Speaker 1: great arm, he can be mobile, and in twenty eighteen

135
00:06:23,000 –> 00:06:24,960
Speaker 1: he was really really good at Utah State, but two

136
00:06:25,000 –> 00:06:26,880
Speaker 1: has nineteen, the tape was not as good. Turn the

137
00:06:26,920 –> 00:06:29,279
Speaker 1: ball over a whole bunch, and now in the pros

138
00:06:29,320 –> 00:06:31,160
Speaker 1: he really just hasn’t had much of an opportunity because

139
00:06:31,200 –> 00:06:34,000
Speaker 1: you have Aaron Rodgers there. He has seven passing attempts

140
00:06:34,040 –> 00:06:36,760
Speaker 1: this year in Week one in mop up duty, five

141
00:06:36,800 –> 00:06:40,040
Speaker 1: completions for sixty eight yards. But just we haven’t seen

142
00:06:40,040 –> 00:06:42,600
Speaker 1: a lot of Jordan Love and Tyron Matthew. Earlier today,

143
00:06:42,600 –> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 1: a media was talking about how you prepare for a

144
00:06:44,600 –> 00:06:47,320
Speaker 1: guy like this, and you watch preseason tape, you watched

145
00:06:47,360 –> 00:06:49,520
Speaker 1: even some college tape to find out some tendencies. But

146
00:06:50,040 –> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: it’s a tough assignment here for Jordan Love finding out midweek, hey,

147
00:06:52,520 –> 00:06:54,360
Speaker 1: you’re going to Kansas City and playing against the Chiefs.

148
00:06:54,560 –> 00:06:57,719
Speaker 1: Keep in mind there was no twenty twenty preseason tape

149
00:06:57,720 –> 00:07:00,680
Speaker 1: on him, so there’s none of that. There’s the couple

150
00:07:00,720 –> 00:07:03,400
Speaker 1: times he got out there in the twenty twenty one preseason.

151
00:07:03,800 –> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 1: He was in for mop up duty, as he alluded

152
00:07:05,520 –> 00:07:08,119
Speaker 1: to against New Orleans in that Week one, They’re only lost.

153
00:07:08,200 –> 00:07:10,560
Speaker 1: The Packers only lost. They’ve won seventh straight since then.

154
00:07:10,840 –> 00:07:13,400
Speaker 1: But even if you go back into Jordan Love’s career,

155
00:07:13,560 –> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 1: I said, there’s there’s sons of some similarities with Josh

156
00:07:15,920 –> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: Allen here. Both no Cael guys, right. Josh Allen was

157
00:07:19,080 –> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: in a rural community near Fresno. Nobody recruited him. Fresno

158
00:07:22,240 –> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: State wanted him to maybe walk on, but then he

159
00:07:24,640 –> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: goes to Wyoming just kind of happened chance, but then

160
00:07:26,600 –> 00:07:29,960
Speaker 1: he tears it up. Here’s Jordan Love, Sacramento kid, nobody

161
00:07:30,000 –> 00:07:34,080
Speaker 1: recruits Eastern Washington, Sacramento State. Utah State takes a flyer

162
00:07:34,120 –> 00:07:37,280
Speaker 1: on him, but he didn’t start right away there either. Okay,

163
00:07:37,280 –> 00:07:39,040
Speaker 1: he had to kind of work his way into the lineup,

164
00:07:39,040 –> 00:07:41,920
Speaker 1: but then he blows up in eighteen. Matt Wells, his

165
00:07:42,040 –> 00:07:44,080
Speaker 1: head coach at Utah State, they go eleven and two.

166
00:07:44,680 –> 00:07:47,040
Speaker 1: He goes to Texas Tech thinks then go as good

167
00:07:47,680 –> 00:07:49,920
Speaker 1: the year before he was drafted. Yeah, they really didn’t.

168
00:07:49,920 –> 00:07:51,640
Speaker 1: And it’s one of those things where you could see

169
00:07:51,680 –> 00:07:54,920
Speaker 1: the tools and the packers clearly saw potential in him,

170
00:07:55,080 –> 00:07:57,440
Speaker 1: but the results weren’t necessarily there. He didn’t win a

171
00:07:57,480 –> 00:08:00,280
Speaker 1: ton of games through a lot of interceptions, and that’s

172
00:08:00,360 –> 00:08:02,240
Speaker 1: kind of what I’m wondering about heading into this game.

173
00:08:02,800 –> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 1: I’m guessing they’re not going to put Jordan Love in

174
00:08:04,600 –> 00:08:07,000
Speaker 1: a bunch of situations to throw the deep ball, or

175
00:08:07,360 –> 00:08:10,640
Speaker 1: situations that could be conducive to mistakes. But still, he’s

176
00:08:10,640 –> 00:08:13,480
Speaker 1: going into his first NFL start and the difference between

177
00:08:13,560 –> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 1: him and Aaron Rodgers is Aaron Rodgers has been incredible

178
00:08:16,120 –> 00:08:18,240
Speaker 1: this season at protecting the football, and that’s why the

179
00:08:18,240 –> 00:08:20,800
Speaker 1: Packers have been so good this year since Week one,

180
00:08:21,320 –> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 1: is because they’re not necessarily blowing the doors off of people,

181
00:08:24,120 –> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: but they’re not turning the football over at all. They’re

182
00:08:26,440 –> 00:08:28,680
Speaker 1: plus eight in the giveaway takeaway this year. They don’t

183
00:08:28,720 –> 00:08:30,840
Speaker 1: make mistakes. They’re one of the least penalized teams in

184
00:08:30,880 –> 00:08:33,120
Speaker 1: the NFL as well. But Aaron Rodgers is the cog

185
00:08:33,160 –> 00:08:35,600
Speaker 1: that makes that whole thing go. So this is no

186
00:08:35,640 –> 00:08:37,600
Speaker 1: disrespect to Jordan Love. We know he’s a talented player.

187
00:08:37,600 –> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 1: He’s a first round pick for a reason. But it’s

188
00:08:39,400 –> 00:08:41,720
Speaker 1: very hard to go in there and replace Aaron Rodgers.

189
00:08:41,960 –> 00:08:44,440
Speaker 1: And when you have turned the ball over in the past,

190
00:08:44,559 –> 00:08:46,440
Speaker 1: when you’ve been on the field, whether that be in

191
00:08:46,480 –> 00:08:49,719
Speaker 1: the preseason or in college, and you’re expected to run

192
00:08:49,760 –> 00:08:52,719
Speaker 1: this offense, it’s a very difficult task. So if I’m

193
00:08:52,720 –> 00:08:55,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs looking at this game, you need to take

194
00:08:55,960 –> 00:08:59,080
Speaker 1: the ball away from Jordan Love early, get his confidence down,

195
00:08:59,240 –> 00:09:01,040
Speaker 1: and then make sure you’re cashing them with points on

196
00:09:01,040 –> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 1: those takeaways. He has lost fumbles in the three professional

197
00:09:05,440 –> 00:09:09,840
Speaker 1: games he’s played. Both those preseason games he played this year,

198
00:09:09,920 –> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: he lost fumbles. In his brief time coming in for Rogers.

199
00:09:13,320 –> 00:09:15,600
Speaker 1: In that New Orleans game, he lost a fumble. So

200
00:09:15,640 –> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 1: he’s had three turnovers even though as a thrown picks

201
00:09:18,200 –> 00:09:20,600
Speaker 1: he has lost three fumbles. Something to think about. But

202
00:09:20,679 –> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 1: let’s backpedal here like a dB for a second. Let’s

203
00:09:23,080 –> 00:09:26,640
Speaker 1: backpedal to that October twenty nineteen game you mentioned. Close game.

204
00:09:26,720 –> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: Great game. Took a great play by Rogers, thrown away

205
00:09:28,880 –> 00:09:30,960
Speaker 1: as Hen. He throws it from his hip like a

206
00:09:31,080 –> 00:09:34,679
Speaker 1: Mahome style throw touchdown. Packers. They win. But remember how

207
00:09:34,679 –> 00:09:38,360
Speaker 1: the Chiefs Rallied around Matt Moore. Matt Moore, the system

208
00:09:38,440 –> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 1: coach read, and the players around him, all five senses

209
00:09:42,280 –> 00:09:45,920
Speaker 1: went to the top point of awareness. Now I have

210
00:09:45,960 –> 00:09:48,280
Speaker 1: a sense Green Bay will do the same thing. This

211
00:09:48,360 –> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: is still a team with Aaron Jones, still a team

212
00:09:50,920 –> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 1: with aj Dillon. They’ve accounted for sixty percent of the touches, runs,

213
00:09:55,240 –> 00:09:58,680
Speaker 1: or catches from those two running backs, and they think

214
00:09:58,840 –> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: probably will have divine Adams Speck Alan Lazard. They will

215
00:10:02,000 –> 00:10:04,920
Speaker 1: miss Robert Tanyon, who tore his ACL last week in

216
00:10:04,960 –> 00:10:08,360
Speaker 1: that victory at tight end. But don’t you sense, Matt,

217
00:10:08,400 –> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: This team will rally around Jordan Love. Absolutely, and that’s

218
00:10:11,600 –> 00:10:13,120
Speaker 1: why it’s so important for the Chiefs to go into

219
00:10:13,160 –> 00:10:16,480
Speaker 1: this game not feeling, you know, overconfident just because Aaron

220
00:10:16,520 –> 00:10:18,839
Speaker 1: Rodgers isn’t out there. The Packers are still a great

221
00:10:18,920 –> 00:10:20,760
Speaker 1: organization with a lot of good players and a great

222
00:10:20,760 –> 00:10:22,520
Speaker 1: culture and a winning culture. I mean they’ve won seven

223
00:10:22,559 –> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 1: games in a row here, so even without Aaron Rodgers,

224
00:10:24,840 –> 00:10:26,520
Speaker 1: you know that their players want to go out there

225
00:10:26,520 –> 00:10:28,080
Speaker 1: and put their best foot forward. You have to go

226
00:10:28,080 –> 00:10:30,560
Speaker 1: out there as a Chiefs defense and as a Chiefs offense,

227
00:10:30,559 –> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: which would talk about in a bit, and make sure

228
00:10:32,360 –> 00:10:34,360
Speaker 1: that you’re taking full advantage of every opportunity you have

229
00:10:34,400 –> 00:10:36,880
Speaker 1: and playing the Packers as if you are playing Aaron Rodgers.

230
00:10:36,920 –> 00:10:38,680
Speaker 1: It doesn’t matter that Jordan Love is back there, and

231
00:10:38,720 –> 00:10:41,040
Speaker 1: they do have good players guys that can help Jordan

232
00:10:41,120 –> 00:10:43,040
Speaker 1: Love along in this game, Guys like Aaron Jones, and

233
00:10:43,120 –> 00:10:45,200
Speaker 1: you alluded to a terrific player. I mean it’s a

234
00:10:45,200 –> 00:10:47,199
Speaker 1: great player out of the backfield. He is dynamic. He’s

235
00:10:47,200 –> 00:10:49,079
Speaker 1: averaging four and a half yards per carry this year

236
00:10:49,280 –> 00:10:51,680
Speaker 1: and also is second on the Packers and receiving yards

237
00:10:51,720 –> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: and receptions behind only Davante Adams, So Aaron Jones is

238
00:10:54,640 –> 00:10:57,160
Speaker 1: a problem. Aja Dylan also averaging four and a half

239
00:10:57,200 –> 00:11:00,079
Speaker 1: yards per carry this year. He’s impressive. And then Davante Adam,

240
00:11:00,200 –> 00:11:02,160
Speaker 1: I mean, a top five receiver in the NFL. The

241
00:11:02,160 –> 00:11:04,400
Speaker 1: guy’s an absolute monster. Didn’t play last week because of

242
00:11:04,400 –> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 1: the COVID protocols, but will likely be out there this week.

243
00:11:07,360 –> 00:11:09,840
Speaker 1: My thought here with the Chief’s defense is you cannot

244
00:11:10,000 –> 00:11:12,320
Speaker 1: let Davante Adams beat you. It was the same thought

245
00:11:12,400 –> 00:11:15,599
Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers being back there, and Davante Adams is

246
00:11:15,600 –> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: a vacuum wide receiver. The guy can make plays when

247
00:11:17,480 –> 00:11:19,560
Speaker 1: every touches the football. So you have to make sure

248
00:11:20,240 –> 00:11:23,440
Speaker 1: that if Jordan Love is finding receivers and making plays,

249
00:11:23,679 –> 00:11:27,240
Speaker 1: you’re forcing guys like Randall Cobb, Equimenius Saint Brown, the

250
00:11:27,800 –> 00:11:31,679
Speaker 1: Alan Lazard, guys that aren’t Davante Adams. If they beat you,

251
00:11:32,080 –> 00:11:33,679
Speaker 1: so be it. You made a great play, but you

252
00:11:33,720 –> 00:11:35,840
Speaker 1: cannot let Davanta Adams beat you in this game. And

253
00:11:35,920 –> 00:11:39,080
Speaker 1: also from a running game standpoint, to get back to

254
00:11:39,080 –> 00:11:42,079
Speaker 1: Aaron Jones, you cannot let the Packers establish a running

255
00:11:42,080 –> 00:11:44,320
Speaker 1: game early on because you want Jordan Love to have

256
00:11:44,440 –> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: to rely on his arm and to make plays with

257
00:11:46,160 –> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 1: his arm, trying to find other receivers beyond Davanta Adams

258
00:11:48,880 –> 00:11:50,360
Speaker 1: and to see what he can do, maybe get him

259
00:11:50,440 –> 00:11:52,600
Speaker 1: uncomfortable early with some pressure, some pressure at the end

260
00:11:52,600 –> 00:11:55,480
Speaker 1: of the Giants game, and then make him uncomfortable and

261
00:11:55,520 –> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: then all of a sudden thinks snowball. He doesn’t feel

262
00:11:57,800 –> 00:12:00,360
Speaker 1: good about himself, doesn’t feel confident, and doesn’t have a

263
00:12:00,440 –> 00:12:02,320
Speaker 1: very good game. You did not want him feeling confident

264
00:12:02,440 –> 00:12:04,040
Speaker 1: early on in this game. And that’s exactly what the

265
00:12:04,080 –> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: Packers want to do. And going back to that twenty

266
00:12:06,600 –> 00:12:09,960
Speaker 1: nineteen game again between the Packers and the Chiefs, Aaron

267
00:12:10,040 –> 00:12:13,559
Speaker 1: Rodgers quarterbacking that night, found the running backs. The running

268
00:12:13,559 –> 00:12:15,600
Speaker 1: backs in the running game and the passing game got

269
00:12:15,600 –> 00:12:18,000
Speaker 1: real involved early. That just set the tone for that

270
00:12:18,040 –> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 1: whole game. And that game winning touchdown went to a

271
00:12:20,080 –> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 1: running back at the back of the end zone. It

272
00:12:21,520 –> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 1: wasn’t a wide receiver. Now let’s jump before you got

273
00:12:24,320 –> 00:12:26,320
Speaker 1: an interview that we want to get to. But before

274
00:12:26,320 –> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 1: we do that, let’s touch on the Packer defense. And honestly,

275
00:12:29,520 –> 00:12:31,320
Speaker 1: it reminds me a little of the Packer offense, or

276
00:12:31,320 –> 00:12:33,880
Speaker 1: maybe this whole team, and give credit to Matt Lafleura

277
00:12:33,880 –> 00:12:36,200
Speaker 1: and his staff, I would call this team efficient. You

278
00:12:36,240 –> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 1: mentioned there’s no leak. Each doesn’t seem to be focused, drift,

279
00:12:39,160 –> 00:12:41,360
Speaker 1: They don’t turn it over. This defense is kind of

280
00:12:41,400 –> 00:12:44,160
Speaker 1: that same way. They’re not gonna light you up. This

281
00:12:44,200 –> 00:12:46,160
Speaker 1: isn’t one of the NFL’s greatest defenses, and I don’t

282
00:12:46,200 –> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: mean that as a knock, but they seem to fit

283
00:12:48,200 –> 00:12:51,280
Speaker 1: what wins now for defenses in the NFL, that is,

284
00:12:51,280 –> 00:12:55,000
Speaker 1: get enough stops, get enough takeaways, and get enough pressure.

285
00:12:55,200 –> 00:12:57,480
Speaker 1: When I look at the consistent pressure from Dean low Read,

286
00:12:57,480 –> 00:13:01,040
Speaker 1: the former Northwestern Wildcat, Rashan Garry or Kenny and others

287
00:13:01,040 –> 00:13:04,439
Speaker 1: on the front, it’s very even out, very balanced, very efficient.

288
00:13:04,559 –> 00:13:06,760
Speaker 1: If you look in Chiefs history since Coach Read has

289
00:13:06,760 –> 00:13:08,880
Speaker 1: been here, some of the defenses that have been really good,

290
00:13:08,880 –> 00:13:11,200
Speaker 1: particularly early on in Coach Read’s tenure, they were a

291
00:13:11,240 –> 00:13:13,840
Speaker 1: lot like this where they weren’t necessarily the top scoring

292
00:13:13,920 –> 00:13:17,040
Speaker 1: defense in the NFL, but they were opportunistic. So the Packers’

293
00:13:17,040 –> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 1: defense this year is extremely opportunistic. They’re forcing turnovers actually

294
00:13:20,840 –> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: on seventeen percent of opponent possessions, that’s insane. And typically

295
00:13:24,960 –> 00:13:27,400
Speaker 1: when you have Aaron Rodgers, they’re then converting those takeaways

296
00:13:27,640 –> 00:13:30,440
Speaker 1: into touchdowns or at least field goals into points. So

297
00:13:30,640 –> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 1: this Packers defense, they’re not gonna lead any categories, but

298
00:13:35,280 –> 00:13:36,920
Speaker 1: they’re going to take the ball away. And that’s what

299
00:13:36,960 –> 00:13:38,400
Speaker 1: the Chiefs have to make sure they don’t do here

300
00:13:38,440 –> 00:13:40,360
Speaker 1: in this game because turnovers, as we know, have been

301
00:13:40,400 –> 00:13:43,720
Speaker 1: a problem all year for this team, particularly an opponent territory.

302
00:13:43,800 –> 00:13:46,800
Speaker 1: The Chiefs have nineteen turnovers this season. Eleven of them

303
00:13:46,880 –> 00:13:49,680
Speaker 1: have occurred in opponent territories. They’ve been moving the football

304
00:13:49,960 –> 00:13:52,360
Speaker 1: and then they don’t get any points for all their

305
00:13:52,360 –> 00:13:54,319
Speaker 1: first downs and yards that they accumulate. They’re turning the

306
00:13:54,360 –> 00:13:57,080
Speaker 1: ball over an opponent territory. You cannot do that against

307
00:13:57,080 –> 00:13:59,160
Speaker 1: this Packers defense. And I don’t care that Jordan Love

308
00:13:59,440 –> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: is on the other side, because they will still make

309
00:14:01,280 –> 00:14:03,360
Speaker 1: you pay. So if you’re the Chiefs in this game,

310
00:14:03,600 –> 00:14:06,480
Speaker 1: this is a great opportunity to stop the turnover trend

311
00:14:06,840 –> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: and to beat this Packer squad because if you don’t

312
00:14:08,760 –> 00:14:10,760
Speaker 1: turn the ball over, I feel great about our chances.

313
00:14:10,840 –> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: I’m like a moth to the flame with these giveaways,

314
00:14:14,400 –> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 1: and you are too, because we just were drawn to them.

315
00:14:17,080 –> 00:14:19,720
Speaker 1: Like I just you mentioned, they’re in plus territorial out

316
00:14:19,760 –> 00:14:22,960
Speaker 1: of the times. They’re also well into the Drive sixth player,

317
00:14:23,000 –> 00:14:25,240
Speaker 1: the Drive tenth Player, the Drive fourteenth Player, the Drive

318
00:14:25,280 –> 00:14:27,160
Speaker 1: seventeenth Player, the Drive. We’ll get this a little more

319
00:14:27,200 –> 00:14:29,880
Speaker 1: next week. But you had a chance for an interview

320
00:14:29,880 –> 00:14:32,680
Speaker 1: on this edition of our Defending the Kingdom show, which

321
00:14:32,720 –> 00:14:35,840
Speaker 1: is called in an instant because in an instant the

322
00:14:35,840 –> 00:14:40,600
Speaker 1: framework of this Chiefs Packers game changed in a moment. Okay,

323
00:14:40,720 –> 00:14:43,000
Speaker 1: you had a chance, though to break this game down

324
00:14:43,080 –> 00:14:45,040
Speaker 1: from the other side of the river, so to speak.

325
00:14:45,080 –> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 1: Even after that announcement, I did so. Caught up with

326
00:14:47,440 –> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 1: Kevin Clark of The Ringer actually just about an hour ago,

327
00:14:50,920 –> 00:14:52,280
Speaker 1: and I was telling him I’m glad we drained this

328
00:14:52,320 –> 00:14:54,840
Speaker 1: interview today and not I don’t know, nine thirty this

329
00:14:54,920 –> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: morning or yesterday, because we’d have to scrap the entire thing.

330
00:14:57,760 –> 00:14:59,600
Speaker 1: But Kevin Clark is one of the very best in

331
00:14:59,640 –> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 1: the business. It’s got his thoughts on Jordan Love and

332
00:15:02,120 –> 00:15:05,320
Speaker 1: this Packers’ offense with Love at quarterback. All Right, We’re

333
00:15:05,400 –> 00:15:07,640
Speaker 1: joined now by Kevin Clark of The Ringer, and Kevin,

334
00:15:07,840 –> 00:15:09,520
Speaker 1: I want to ask you about Jordan Love here. We

335
00:15:09,520 –> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 1: thought we’d get Mahomes versus Rodgers. Finally, I feel like

336
00:15:12,080 –> 00:15:14,560
Speaker 1: it’s a matchup that’s eluding us now. For years. It

337
00:15:14,640 –> 00:15:17,600
Speaker 1: was Aaron Rodgers versus Matt Moore back in twenty nineteen.

338
00:15:17,640 –> 00:15:19,680
Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes is hurt in that game, and now we

339
00:15:19,720 –> 00:15:22,200
Speaker 1: almost have it here this year, but Rogers Lands is

340
00:15:22,240 –> 00:15:24,320
Speaker 1: on the COVID list, so it’ll be Jordan’s Love on

341
00:15:24,360 –> 00:15:27,200
Speaker 1: Sunday here in Kansas City. What do you make of

342
00:15:27,280 –> 00:15:28,640
Speaker 1: Jordan Love? What did you think of him coming out

343
00:15:28,640 –> 00:15:30,480
Speaker 1: of school at Utah State? And what do you make

344
00:15:30,520 –> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 1: of what you can do in this offense? It’s funny.

345
00:15:33,360 –> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 1: I was looking at some of the scouting reports this

346
00:15:35,280 –> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: morning when he was named the starter, obviously, and the

347
00:15:37,960 –> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 1: number one word that popped out was polarizing. He was

348
00:15:39,920 –> 00:15:46,320
Speaker 1: a polarizing prospect to scouts, to coaches, and obviously Darren Rodgers.

349
00:15:46,360 –> 00:15:49,480
Speaker 1: We found that out. But I think it’s just fascinating

350
00:15:49,720 –> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 1: to me because we’re going to get to see what

351
00:15:51,400 –> 00:15:53,880
Speaker 1: we could have seen in September if Aaron Rodgers hadn’t

352
00:15:53,880 –> 00:15:57,360
Speaker 1: shown up. And my guess is the Matt Lafleur and

353
00:15:57,440 –> 00:16:00,520
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Hacke at the offensive coordinator. They had an offense

354
00:16:00,560 –> 00:16:03,200
Speaker 1: ready to go if if, in fact Aaron Rodgers didn’t

355
00:16:03,200 –> 00:16:06,600
Speaker 1: show up. So um, the production was not there in comment,

356
00:16:06,720 –> 00:16:10,880
Speaker 1: especially as last year twenty touchdown, seventeen interceptions. Um, he has.

357
00:16:10,960 –> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 1: He was reading some of the scouting reports they were

358
00:16:12,560 –> 00:16:15,760
Speaker 1: saying he had is kind of a long delivery. M

359
00:16:16,440 –> 00:16:19,960
Speaker 1: The time to get the ball out is not incredible. Um.

360
00:16:20,040 –> 00:16:22,720
Speaker 1: And there might be some some inefficiencies there as far

361
00:16:22,760 –> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 1: as the Chiefs attacking it. But listen, he’s big, He’s

362
00:16:26,120 –> 00:16:27,960
Speaker 1: gotten better. I mean, we’ll think about how much better

363
00:16:28,000 –> 00:16:31,080
Speaker 1: Ran Rodgers gotten the green bass system sitting behind Brett Farve,

364
00:16:31,160 –> 00:16:33,040
Speaker 1: and think about all the invice he’s gotten. I’m not

365
00:16:33,080 –> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: saying by us most is Jeordan Love’s going to turn

366
00:16:35,240 –> 00:16:37,800
Speaker 1: into Aaron Rodgers here. But what I am saying is

367
00:16:37,800 –> 00:16:40,560
Speaker 1: is any quarterback in the environment will get better that that.

368
00:16:40,560 –> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 1: That’s just how how life works, it’s how football works,

369
00:16:43,480 –> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: it’s how math works. Um. And so I think that

370
00:16:46,760 –> 00:16:49,440
Speaker 1: you know he’s got a good pocket presence. He showed

371
00:16:49,520 –> 00:16:52,960
Speaker 1: that the ball. The arm strength is not a question.

372
00:16:53,080 –> 00:16:56,000
Speaker 1: He’s confident and and I think that you know he

373
00:16:56,040 –> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 1: can use a little bit of a ethileticism within the pocket.

374
00:16:58,560 –> 00:17:00,520
Speaker 1: It is not He’s not, you know, the fastest guy

375
00:17:00,520 –> 00:17:03,480
Speaker 1: in football, but he can move and I think they’ll

376
00:17:03,480 –> 00:17:05,760
Speaker 1: at least be able to do something creative with them,

377
00:17:05,760 –> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: even if it’s nowhere near or what you can do

378
00:17:07,520 –> 00:17:10,040
Speaker 1: with Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, it’ll be interesting. I mean, no

379
00:17:10,040 –> 00:17:12,480
Speaker 1: one is Aaron Rodgers in this Packers’ offense. But Jordan’s

380
00:17:12,480 –> 00:17:14,760
Speaker 1: Love was a first round pick for a reason, so

381
00:17:14,840 –> 00:17:16,080
Speaker 1: you think he has some talent and he can do

382
00:17:16,119 –> 00:17:17,800
Speaker 1: some things, and he has some weapons at his disposal,

383
00:17:17,840 –> 00:17:19,719
Speaker 1: and guys like Davante Adams, one of the best receivers

384
00:17:19,760 –> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: in all of football. Nice running back duo with Aja

385
00:17:22,040 –> 00:17:25,000
Speaker 1: Dillon and Aaron Jones. We’ll see what Matt Laflair cooks

386
00:17:25,080 –> 00:17:27,359
Speaker 1: up for Jordan’s Love. Hopefully it’s a good opportunity though

387
00:17:27,400 –> 00:17:29,200
Speaker 1: for the Chief’s defense, which played so well last week

388
00:17:29,240 –> 00:17:31,720
Speaker 1: against New York, to keep some momentum rolling. That’s my

389
00:17:31,840 –> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: other question here for you. What can the Chiefs defense

390
00:17:34,280 –> 00:17:36,480
Speaker 1: do to slow down what Jordan Love does well and

391
00:17:36,520 –> 00:17:38,919
Speaker 1: what he has with his offensive weapons. Well, you can

392
00:17:38,920 –> 00:17:40,720
Speaker 1: show him something he’s never seen before, which is going

393
00:17:40,760 –> 00:17:42,480
Speaker 1: to be easy because he’s never seen anything before in

394
00:17:42,480 –> 00:17:46,120
Speaker 1: an NFL field. And the difference between NFL defense and

395
00:17:46,359 –> 00:17:48,840
Speaker 1: a college defense or even a preseason defense. You know this,

396
00:17:48,920 –> 00:17:51,440
Speaker 1: I mean, you know, the difference between you know, August

397
00:17:51,440 –> 00:17:55,200
Speaker 1: fifteenth and November fifth and number seventh is massive, right,

398
00:17:55,760 –> 00:17:58,840
Speaker 1: And so it’ll take a lot for Jordan’s Love to

399
00:17:58,880 –> 00:18:03,120
Speaker 1: get comfortable in his first NFL start. And so if

400
00:18:03,160 –> 00:18:05,639
Speaker 1: I’m if I’m the Chiefs, I’m just throwing the kitchen

401
00:18:05,680 –> 00:18:08,160
Speaker 1: sink at him, and I’m doing a bunch of different stuff.

402
00:18:08,200 –> 00:18:11,560
Speaker 1: And you know, obviously they’ve gotten better every single week.

403
00:18:12,119 –> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 1: They still have holes, they still have personnel holes. But

404
00:18:15,320 –> 00:18:17,600
Speaker 1: I don’t know, you know, Aaron Rodgers is one of

405
00:18:17,600 –> 00:18:20,919
Speaker 1: those guys. So if there’s a guy, you know, in

406
00:18:20,960 –> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 1: the middle of the field, linebacker, safety, cornerback certainly who

407
00:18:25,240 –> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: is not confident, is not making plays, Aaron Rodgers is

408
00:18:27,480 –> 00:18:29,720
Speaker 1: going to attack that guy over and over and over again.

409
00:18:29,800 –> 00:18:32,120
Speaker 1: He’s gonna put that guy in hell. And I don’t

410
00:18:32,160 –> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: know if Jordan Love has that yet, that built up yet.

411
00:18:36,760 –> 00:18:38,240
Speaker 1: You know, you hear that about all the greats. Peyton

412
00:18:38,240 –> 00:18:40,320
Speaker 1: Manning used to find the one cornerback who you could

413
00:18:40,320 –> 00:18:42,399
Speaker 1: tell was nervous and just put that guy in a

414
00:18:42,440 –> 00:18:45,680
Speaker 1: torture chamber. Jordan Love is not that, and that’s why

415
00:18:45,720 –> 00:18:47,879
Speaker 1: I think this will help the Chiefs defense. I mean, listen,

416
00:18:47,960 –> 00:18:50,040
Speaker 1: I know it sounds simplistic to say it’s better to

417
00:18:50,119 –> 00:18:52,560
Speaker 1: face anybody else than Aaron Rodgers, but if you’re the

418
00:18:52,640 –> 00:18:55,119
Speaker 1: Chiefs defense right now, you’re gonna get a huge confidence

419
00:18:55,119 –> 00:18:58,359
Speaker 1: boost not facing Aaron Rodgers. Who can who’s able to

420
00:18:58,400 –> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 1: exploit basically anything in your Yeah, not bad, you’re in

421
00:19:01,640 –> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 1: defensive meetings. You find that out on a Wednesday. Hey,

422
00:19:03,440 –> 00:19:05,399
Speaker 1: you’re not going to face Aaron Rodgers this week, so

423
00:19:05,600 –> 00:19:07,040
Speaker 1: we’ll see the Chiefs can take advantage of it. It It

424
00:19:07,119 –> 00:19:09,920
Speaker 1: certainly took advantage of an opportunity against Daniel Jones last

425
00:19:09,920 –> 00:19:12,119
Speaker 1: week with the pass rush, particularly there at the end,

426
00:19:12,200 –> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 1: Chris Jones, Frank Clark, Jaren Reid, Mike Dana all creating

427
00:19:15,400 –> 00:19:17,679
Speaker 1: pressure on him. So maybe some pressure early on in

428
00:19:17,720 –> 00:19:19,840
Speaker 1: this game can get a Jordan Love off of his

429
00:19:19,920 –> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 1: mark and see what the Chiefs can do here and

430
00:19:21,440 –> 00:19:24,160
Speaker 1: hopefully get a second victory in a row. Kevin, awesome

431
00:19:24,160 –> 00:19:28,000
Speaker 1: stuff and I really appreciate it anytime. All right, great

432
00:19:28,040 –> 00:19:30,480
Speaker 1: stuff there from Kevin. We’ll also have him on my

433
00:19:30,520 –> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 1: game preview video this week that you can find on YouTube,

434
00:19:32,960 –> 00:19:35,320
Speaker 1: and he’ll join the field Pass while a segment with

435
00:19:35,440 –> 00:19:37,399
Speaker 1: Kevin Clark on field Pass on game day. When you

436
00:19:37,480 –> 00:19:41,080
Speaker 1: take Matt’s text and you’re around the NFL, just get ready,

437
00:19:41,280 –> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 1: get ready. There’s gonna be a lot of stuff. Chief’s

438
00:19:42,960 –> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 1: car wash. It’s the car wash, baby, Let’s club car wash,

439
00:19:46,600 –> 00:19:49,879
Speaker 1: I think is bringing. That’s the radio stuff. Anyway. Speaking

440
00:19:49,920 –> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 1: of wash, let’s go right here, because Chief’s Kingdom, we

441
00:19:53,000 –> 00:19:56,240
Speaker 1: are turning to cold water washing with Tide here on

442
00:19:56,280 –> 00:19:58,159
Speaker 1: the defending of the Kingdom. We’re calling on you to

443
00:19:58,280 –> 00:20:01,200
Speaker 1: do the same because it’s saves money on energy bills.

444
00:20:01,240 –> 00:20:04,240
Speaker 1: It’s tough enough to tackle NFL stains. It can handle

445
00:20:04,240 –> 00:20:07,560
Speaker 1: a little nacho cheese or whatever that you spill on

446
00:20:07,600 –> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: your Chiefs Kingdom arrowhead read. But best of all, Tide

447
00:20:11,000 –> 00:20:14,399
Speaker 1: is giving fans the ultimate reason to turn to cold

448
00:20:14,520 –> 00:20:20,359
Speaker 1: water washing and a talking Chiefs cold Washer. I’m not

449
00:20:20,440 –> 00:20:23,080
Speaker 1: making this up, all right. It is a washing machine

450
00:20:23,080 –> 00:20:26,280
Speaker 1: that reminds you to turn to cold at every turn.

451
00:20:27,480 –> 00:20:30,840
Speaker 1: With the voice of Travis Kelser, take it from me.

452
00:20:31,200 –> 00:20:34,960
Speaker 1: Cold can tackle all your stains. Amazing, amazing, I love it.

453
00:20:35,040 –> 00:20:39,440
Speaker 1: Such good stuff. So remember the chiefs tied cold wash

454
00:20:39,480 –> 00:20:41,840
Speaker 1: washer could be yours. Just take the pledge to turn

455
00:20:41,880 –> 00:20:44,440
Speaker 1: to cold and enter for a chance to win at

456
00:20:44,520 –> 00:20:47,800
Speaker 1: Tide dot Com. So I gotta Tide dot com really easy. Okay,

457
00:20:47,960 –> 00:20:50,200
Speaker 1: We’re gonna wrap up this edition of Defending the Kingdom

458
00:20:50,240 –> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: a little more of a humorous tone here, because it’s

459
00:20:53,840 –> 00:20:58,960
Speaker 1: not only in a moment, it’s also catch Curly, Catch Curly.

460
00:20:59,160 –> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: That’s my theme of the week. Catch Curly. Why Because

461
00:21:02,560 –> 00:21:05,200
Speaker 1: Curly Lambeau was the player, coach and coach. He was

462
00:21:05,240 –> 00:21:08,040
Speaker 1: the founder. He started the Green Bay Packers in nineteen nineteen.

463
00:21:08,320 –> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: He was their coach for thirty years. Player and a coach.

464
00:21:11,040 –> 00:21:13,000
Speaker 1: He’s in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, the very

465
00:21:13,040 –> 00:21:16,360
Speaker 1: first class to go into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Oh,

466
00:21:16,400 –> 00:21:19,679
Speaker 1: the Packers play at Lambeau Field. Curly Lambeau. He had

467
00:21:19,720 –> 00:21:22,960
Speaker 1: two hundred and twenty six wins as head coach of

468
00:21:23,000 –> 00:21:25,720
Speaker 1: the Packers, a little bit with the Cardinals and even

469
00:21:25,760 –> 00:21:28,159
Speaker 1: the Washington football team back in the day, most of

470
00:21:28,160 –> 00:21:30,800
Speaker 1: those with the Packers. He’s a legend there. But coach

471
00:21:30,840 –> 00:21:34,080
Speaker 1: Read can catch Curly this game. He can in terms

472
00:21:34,080 –> 00:21:37,520
Speaker 1: of all time wins, it’s crazy. It’s just crazy. And

473
00:21:37,600 –> 00:21:40,880
Speaker 1: I think because we have Coach Read and Bill Belichick

474
00:21:40,920 –> 00:21:43,480
Speaker 1: coaching in the NFL at the same time, we kind

475
00:21:43,480 –> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: of get used to it, like it’s normal to have

476
00:21:46,480 –> 00:21:49,480
Speaker 1: this many wins in the NFL. It’s not. If you

477
00:21:49,480 –> 00:21:51,680
Speaker 1: look at the history of the NFL, Coach Read is

478
00:21:51,760 –> 00:21:53,800
Speaker 1: up there with the greatest of all time, and it’s

479
00:21:53,800 –> 00:21:56,480
Speaker 1: important to appreciate what he has accomplished because it is

480
00:21:56,520 –> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 1: truly just not normal. It’s one thing to be a

481
00:21:58,920 –> 00:22:00,760
Speaker 1: great coach in the NFL, but it’s another to be

482
00:22:00,760 –> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 1: a great coach and to sustain it over decades. And

483
00:22:04,040 –> 00:22:06,920
Speaker 1: Coach Read has changed, his style of coaching, changed his schemes,

484
00:22:07,320 –> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 1: changed how he does things year to year to year

485
00:22:10,000 –> 00:22:13,240
Speaker 1: to have incredible success in both Philadelphia and here in

486
00:22:13,320 –> 00:22:16,320
Speaker 1: Kansas City over the course of two decades. And he

487
00:22:16,320 –> 00:22:19,280
Speaker 1: does it with different players, different schemes, different coaches, just

488
00:22:19,440 –> 00:22:21,840
Speaker 1: finds a way continually to make it work. We are

489
00:22:21,840 –> 00:22:23,399
Speaker 1: so blessed and lucky to have Coach Read here in

490
00:22:23,440 –> 00:22:25,800
Speaker 1: Kansas City because he is truly one of the greatest

491
00:22:25,840 –> 00:22:29,680
Speaker 1: of all time. I mean, Curly Lambo founded the Packers,

492
00:22:29,840 –> 00:22:34,439
Speaker 1: founded the nineteen nineteen It’s lambeau Field. For peach sake, folks,

493
00:22:34,680 –> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 1: it’s that list, is Don Shula, it is Bill Belichick,

494
00:22:38,560 –> 00:22:41,359
Speaker 1: It’s what Tom Landry, George hallis. That’s the four ahead

495
00:22:41,440 –> 00:22:45,960
Speaker 1: of Curly Lambo and Andy Reid and Andy can catch

496
00:22:46,119 –> 00:22:49,000
Speaker 1: him this week with two hundred and twenty six wins. Now,

497
00:22:49,440 –> 00:22:51,320
Speaker 1: if you’re a Packer fan, you know about Curly’s three

498
00:22:51,320 –> 00:22:53,639
Speaker 1: marriages and he had a heart attack geting out of

499
00:22:53,640 –> 00:22:55,760
Speaker 1: his car with a date with the Packer Golden Girl.

500
00:22:55,840 –> 00:22:59,360
Speaker 1: Think that’s TMZ. This is DTK. We’re not going there.

501
00:22:59,480 –> 00:23:03,000
Speaker 1: This is d TK. But we will say this on three.

00:23:03,080 –> 00:23:07,040
Speaker 1: Say it with me, one two, three cash Curly on
