Speaker 1: Thank you vantage on the day. All right, will you

2
00:00:02,560 –> 00:00:07,960
Speaker 1: get up because the game they can play. Joe touchdown

3
00:00:08,520 –> 00:00:13,200
Speaker 1: Kansas City, the Chiefs, all right, the thick of a baby,

4
00:00:13,440 –> 00:00:17,480
Speaker 1: it’s our defending the Kingdom Playoff edition. The Divisional Playoffs

5
00:00:17,520 –> 00:00:20,440
Speaker 1: are here, the Chiefs against the Jacksonville Jaguars. And yes

6
00:00:20,520 –> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: we’re bringing in for the playoffs. The man himself, the shop,

7
00:00:24,000 –> 00:00:29,040
Speaker 1: the barbershop shop Alicias Shop, adopt Seohn Barber, a longtime

8
00:00:29,120 –> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 1: NFL player and terrific Chief’s ambassador and community leader. And

9
00:00:33,400 –> 00:00:37,760
Speaker 1: of course Matt McMullen joins me senior team reporter. Is

10
00:00:37,880 –> 00:00:40,800
Speaker 1: before we go around the world with a special number

11
00:00:41,240 –> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 1: of around the world. Just a thought as we get

12
00:00:43,840 –> 00:00:45,680
Speaker 1: ready to start and the Chiefs can now enter the

13
00:00:45,800 –> 00:00:48,040
Speaker 1: race here after having a bye week and be in

14
00:00:48,040 –> 00:00:51,480
Speaker 1: the one seed. Well, obviously my thought is enjoy the rest,

15
00:00:51,680 –> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: enjoy the preparation, but now is time to get back

16
00:00:54,480 –> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: to it and having some aggressive maser, just being able

17
00:00:57,600 –> 00:01:00,560
Speaker 1: to really fine tune all your thoughts, you’re creative ideas

18
00:01:00,960 –> 00:01:04,959
Speaker 1: and trying to redevelop that that that itch, that that demeanor,

19
00:01:05,040 –> 00:01:07,280
Speaker 1: that that that I want to be a playoff. I

20
00:01:07,319 –> 00:01:09,039
Speaker 1: want to be a super Bowl champion and how to

21
00:01:09,080 –> 00:01:10,959
Speaker 1: recreate that. We have a young team, a lot of

22
00:01:10,959 –> 00:01:13,959
Speaker 1: guys they don’t even remember, you know, the championship year.

23
00:01:14,000 –> 00:01:15,960
Speaker 1: They wouldn’t a part of this run and they don’t

24
00:01:16,000 –> 00:01:18,440
Speaker 1: know what it takes to get there. And so some teams,

25
00:01:18,480 –> 00:01:20,360
Speaker 1: I feel like, when you’ve been there and done that,

26
00:01:21,080 –> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 1: it’s kind of hard to recreate that. That that mystique.

27
00:01:23,959 –> 00:01:26,039
Speaker 1: But I think this team, in this moment, in his time,

28
00:01:26,400 –> 00:01:29,160
Speaker 1: is going to take advantage of this opportunity, take advantage

29
00:01:29,160 –> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 1: of the bye week, and come out fully with all

30
00:01:31,800 –> 00:01:34,720
Speaker 1: guns blazes ready to go against Jacksonville. I’ve given the

31
00:01:34,760 –> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: analogy having the bye week was like running a marathon

32
00:01:37,440 –> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 1: fourteen and three long climb. Tough season, but you get

33
00:01:40,440 –> 00:01:42,639
Speaker 1: pulled off the track. Everybody else has to keep running

34
00:01:42,640 –> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: and then a drone drops you out in front of

35
00:01:44,840 –> 00:01:46,840
Speaker 1: everybody with two more rep miles to run. But to

36
00:01:46,880 –> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 1: your point, you gotta start running. And there’s there’s two

37
00:01:49,560 –> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 1: guys I think of going into this week and warns

38
00:01:52,120 –> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 1: Carlos Stunlap, who’s played thirteen years in this league and

39
00:01:54,680 –> 00:01:59,639
Speaker 1: has zero playoff wins, okay, and the other Juju Smith Schuster,

40
00:01:59,680 –> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: who’s been in this league. He was five years with

41
00:02:01,720 –> 00:02:04,360
Speaker 1: the Steelers, but was not part of any Steeler playoff wins.

42
00:02:04,400 –> 00:02:07,640
Speaker 1: He’s over in the playoffs. Those two guys, you know,

43
00:02:07,680 –> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: as veterans, wouldn’t get this done. So a lot of reasons,

44
00:02:10,800 –> 00:02:13,160
Speaker 1: a lot of motivation, but it’s the playoffs. Mat Yeah,

45
00:02:13,200 –> 00:02:15,760
Speaker 1: it’s twofold for me. First of all, it’s excitement, right

46
00:02:15,880 –> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: because ever since you and I were watching Phase one

47
00:02:19,480 –> 00:02:21,440
Speaker 1: way back in April, when the guys are running around

48
00:02:21,440 –> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: in shorts and we’re trying to figure out what our

49
00:02:23,040 –> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: team is going to look like, it was all about

50
00:02:25,160 –> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 1: building toward this moment, being ready for this moment, putting

51
00:02:28,080 –> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 1: themselves in the perfect position to seize this moment. And

52
00:02:31,520 –> 00:02:33,880
Speaker 1: we’re excited about that. But it’s also about taking care

53
00:02:33,880 –> 00:02:36,799
Speaker 1: of business. And what an amazing opportunity in front of

54
00:02:36,840 –> 00:02:39,920
Speaker 1: the Chiefs here that if they can beat Jacksonville on Saturday,

55
00:02:40,240 –> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: we’ll go to a fifth consecutive AFC title game. Can’t

56
00:02:43,720 –> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 1: get excited about that yet, got to take care of business.

57
00:02:46,160 –> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: But what an opportunity this is for the Chiefs. We

58
00:02:48,320 –> 00:02:50,480
Speaker 1: always take care of business on defending the Kingdom. That

59
00:02:50,480 –> 00:02:53,160
Speaker 1: means going around the world today. I think you have twelve.

60
00:02:53,480 –> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: It reminds me of Travis Kelsey, who has twelve playoff

61
00:02:56,840 –> 00:02:59,560
Speaker 1: touchdown receptions. Only two players in the history of the

62
00:02:59,639 –> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 1: league have more than Travis Kelsey, Jerry Rice with twenty

63
00:03:03,600 –> 00:03:07,079
Speaker 1: two and Rob Gronkowski with fifteen. When you look at

64
00:03:07,160 –> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: Kelsey’s playoff numbers, it’s really now only or he’s up

65
00:03:10,919 –> 00:03:14,320
Speaker 1: against like Jerry Rice numbers and what he’s been able

66
00:03:14,320 –> 00:03:18,359
Speaker 1: to do. But with twelve, we go around the world. Yeah,

67
00:03:18,360 –> 00:03:20,080
Speaker 1: and I don’t want to get sidetracked here, but you

68
00:03:20,120 –> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 1: mentioned Travis kelsey playoff numbers. I start thinking about it myself.

69
00:03:22,960 –> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 1: It is truly crazy because I was looking at them yesterday.

70
00:03:26,120 –> 00:03:29,839
Speaker 1: He’s fifth all time in postseason receiving yards. Only Jerry Rice,

71
00:03:30,080 –> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 1: Julian Edelman, Rob Gronkowski, and Michael Irvin have more receiving

72
00:03:33,760 –> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: yards in the postseason than Travis Kelsey. Think about that.

73
00:03:36,800 –> 00:03:39,880
Speaker 1: With one hundred and fifty three receiving yards this postseason,

74
00:03:39,920 –> 00:03:42,600
Speaker 1: I believe he could move to number two on that list,

75
00:03:42,640 –> 00:03:45,640
Speaker 1: behind only Jerry Rice. Think about the legend that we’re

76
00:03:45,640 –> 00:03:48,600
Speaker 1: watching right now in Kansas City. It’s amazing stuff, so

77
00:03:48,840 –> 00:03:51,440
Speaker 1: can’t take it for granted. Hopefully a big game on Saturday.

78
00:03:51,880 –> 00:03:54,400
Speaker 1: We do, indeed have twelve names in places from around

79
00:03:54,440 –> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 1: the world for this week’s DTK. Also twelve for Patrick

80
00:03:58,040 –> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 1: mahomes twelfth playoff game. How about that He’s only twenty

81
00:04:01,160 –> 00:04:03,440
Speaker 1: seven years old and has played in eleven playoff games,

82
00:04:03,480 –> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: which is crazy. Ready for this game is tenth? Yeah, right,

83
00:04:06,400 –> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 1: let’s keep it going for sure. Hopefully next week we’re

84
00:04:09,560 –> 00:04:12,880
Speaker 1: talking about his thirteenth playoffs. But we have Charles at

85
00:04:13,040 –> 00:04:16,720
Speaker 1: Ramstein Air Force Base in Germany. That I pronounce that right, Yeah, yep.

86
00:04:17,160 –> 00:04:20,480
Speaker 1: We have Edgar in the Washington DC area. D find

87
00:04:20,560 –> 00:04:24,000
Speaker 1: Us william Is in Rhode Island, also known as Chiefs

88
00:04:24,080 –> 00:04:27,880
Speaker 1: Kingdom Northeast. Rob is in Dallas also known as Chiefs

89
00:04:27,960 –> 00:04:31,279
Speaker 1: Kingdom Deep South. He wanted to know how many tackles

90
00:04:31,440 –> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 1: are rookies combined for this year. The answer is two

91
00:04:34,200 –> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: hundred and eighteen. It’s a lot of tackles by some rookies,

92
00:04:36,480 –> 00:04:39,680
Speaker 1: especially when you don’t have like an every down linebacker

93
00:04:40,160 –> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 1: at rookie right now, Like these are corners and guys

94
00:04:42,480 –> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 1: like Leo Chanelle coming in rotational guys. A lot of

95
00:04:44,920 –> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 1: tackles for the Chiefs rookie class. But these rookie dbs

96
00:04:47,880 –> 00:04:50,640
Speaker 1: are not afraid to tackle, and they’re good tacklers. Yeah,

97
00:04:50,680 –> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 1: so that’s that’s what’s overlooked. And we almost at a

98
00:04:52,640 –> 00:04:56,360
Speaker 1: point where I’m ready to drop the connotation rookie. Sure

99
00:04:56,440 –> 00:04:58,480
Speaker 1: they’ve they’ve they’ve had enough snaps now that we need

100
00:04:58,520 –> 00:05:00,440
Speaker 1: to go ahead and to say they’re veteran play there.

101
00:05:00,600 –> 00:05:04,520
Speaker 1: Their expectation level to go perform is at all time. Halasshole,

102
00:05:04,560 –> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: we might need to stop. But you’ve been calling these

103
00:05:05,960 –> 00:05:08,240
Speaker 1: guys with I completely agree with that. Justin reib would

104
00:05:08,240 –> 00:05:09,600
Speaker 1: agree with you. He said that a few weeks ago.

105
00:05:09,960 –> 00:05:13,360
Speaker 1: We have Leo in Pennsylvania. Michael is currently in Germany.

106
00:05:14,000 –> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 1: James is in de Car, Senegal. He previously checked in

107
00:05:17,279 –> 00:05:20,320
Speaker 1: from Ukraine before the war began, all over the place.

108
00:05:20,880 –> 00:05:23,000
Speaker 1: John is in Tucson. If the Chiefs can make it

109
00:05:23,000 –> 00:05:24,680
Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl, he says, he’ll be making the

110
00:05:24,760 –> 00:05:26,599
Speaker 1: drive to Phoenix. Doesn’t know if he’ll go to the

111
00:05:26,640 –> 00:05:28,960
Speaker 1: game or not. It’s expensive, but he’ll at least be

112
00:05:29,040 –> 00:05:31,160
Speaker 1: in Phoenix as his plan. Been waiting a long time

113
00:05:31,200 –> 00:05:35,440
Speaker 1: for this, he said. Jack is in Madera, Ranchos, California.

114
00:05:35,600 –> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 1: Victors in Texas. Justin Eichman reached out he’s a Butler

115
00:05:39,400 –> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: Community College and k State football alone. What’s his name,

116
00:05:43,600 –> 00:05:49,120
Speaker 1: Justin Eichman, I believe, Yeah, yeah, he actually had a

117
00:05:49,120 –> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 1: great stat he passed along. So the Chiefs had fifty

118
00:05:51,680 –> 00:05:55,479
Speaker 1: five sacks this season and only allowed twenty six. That

119
00:05:55,640 –> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 1: plus twenty nine sack differential was best in the NFL

120
00:05:59,360 –> 00:06:02,479
Speaker 1: according to so pretty cool. I love it. Yeah. We

121
00:06:02,520 –> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: also have Rachel at Eagle Animal Hospital in North Kansas City.

122
00:06:05,560 –> 00:06:07,440
Speaker 1: I brought my dog into Eagle a few days ago

123
00:06:07,480 –> 00:06:10,960
Speaker 1: and Rachel came out and she was like, I love

124
00:06:11,000 –> 00:06:12,960
Speaker 1: the Chiefs in a season ticket member. I love DTK.

125
00:06:13,040 –> 00:06:14,800
Speaker 1: So I just wanted to say hi, and I was like, Hi, Rachel.

126
00:06:14,839 –> 00:06:17,520
Speaker 1: So shout out to Rachel. Yes. And then lastly, we

127
00:06:17,560 –> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 1: have plenty more. If I didn’t get to you today,

128
00:06:20,080 –> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: of course we’ll get to you down the road, but

129
00:06:22,120 –> 00:06:24,440
Speaker 1: twelve for today. Lots of people though all over the

130
00:06:24,440 –> 00:06:27,720
Speaker 1: world listening to DTK. Yeah, take care of those veterinarians

131
00:06:27,760 –> 00:06:31,039
Speaker 1: and those vet assistants. They are very very important, very important. Okay,

132
00:06:31,080 –> 00:06:34,920
Speaker 1: playoff you always here. Playoff speed a little bit more.

133
00:06:35,000 –> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 1: To me, it feels like you’re in like intergalactic travel,

134
00:06:39,320 –> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 1: Like it’s such a tough climb and being in the

135
00:06:41,680 –> 00:06:44,160
Speaker 1: solar system, and then you enter a whole another solar

136
00:06:44,200 –> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 1: system with the playoffs. You played in the postseason. What’s

137
00:06:48,720 –> 00:06:51,960
Speaker 1: this like? And how about the old adage there’s regular

138
00:06:51,960 –> 00:06:54,520
Speaker 1: season speed in playoffs. I gotta say it’s true. I

139
00:06:54,560 –> 00:06:56,520
Speaker 1: gotta say that. You know, when you entered the league

140
00:06:56,520 –> 00:06:58,920
Speaker 1: and you starting to go throughout the season, the first

141
00:06:59,040 –> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 1: about tens and so games of the year, you feel

142
00:07:01,320 –> 00:07:04,560
Speaker 1: like you’re in gear one or gear two, and then

143
00:07:04,560 –> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 1: when you get to the back end of the season

144
00:07:05,880 –> 00:07:08,039
Speaker 1: after a bye week, you go into gears three and four.

145
00:07:08,680 –> 00:07:11,560
Speaker 1: Um as the postseason arrives and you start talking about

146
00:07:11,600 –> 00:07:14,560
Speaker 1: the wild cards and then a divisional conference championship, they

147
00:07:14,560 –> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 1: feel like you’re going into maybe six or seventh gear.

148
00:07:16,960 –> 00:07:19,040
Speaker 1: And when you really think about it, when you get

149
00:07:19,080 –> 00:07:21,360
Speaker 1: to the super Bowl, there is no gear. It’s it’s

150
00:07:21,640 –> 00:07:23,600
Speaker 1: it’s a it goes for a lack of words, because

151
00:07:23,600 –> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: there you can’t prepare yourself with that much adrenaline energy,

152
00:07:27,520 –> 00:07:30,920
Speaker 1: that much excitement, that that expectation. You don’t know how

153
00:07:30,960 –> 00:07:32,800
Speaker 1: your body’s going to react, So it’s no where to

154
00:07:32,840 –> 00:07:35,720
Speaker 1: truly prepare for it. I’ve never played in one, just

155
00:07:35,760 –> 00:07:39,000
Speaker 1: the excitement of being in the venue as a former player,

156
00:07:39,040 –> 00:07:41,320
Speaker 1: had me geeking out and stuff like that. By the

157
00:07:41,360 –> 00:07:43,800
Speaker 1: boom by the Being. Before I know it, it’s it’s

158
00:07:43,880 –> 00:07:46,560
Speaker 1: kickoff time. And so whatever you can do to get

159
00:07:46,600 –> 00:07:49,600
Speaker 1: yourself in that moment and and just mentally kind of

160
00:07:49,640 –> 00:07:53,560
Speaker 1: prepare yourself for the game, the calls to come a

161
00:07:53,560 –> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: little quicker, the formation, the shifts and motions to you know,

162
00:07:57,880 –> 00:08:00,640
Speaker 1: just always preparing yourself for what if, so what could have,

163
00:08:01,720 –> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 1: what can happen. I think our team is in a

164
00:08:04,400 –> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 1: very unique situation to have had that week to just

165
00:08:07,240 –> 00:08:10,960
Speaker 1: sit back and watch the Jacksonville Jaguars and in the

166
00:08:11,040 –> 00:08:14,560
Speaker 1: Chargers play each other, to watch the Bills play and

167
00:08:14,560 –> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: watch the U since Andy Bengals play all the future

168
00:08:19,680 –> 00:08:22,320
Speaker 1: opponents that might come out of this playoffs, we had

169
00:08:22,320 –> 00:08:25,600
Speaker 1: a chance to actually see them play playoff speed already

170
00:08:25,920 –> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 1: and then kind of acclimated acclimate ourselves to playing that

171
00:08:29,400 –> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 1: same speed, that same tempo, and then making them actually

172
00:08:33,320 –> 00:08:35,640
Speaker 1: kind of play play to our speed in our tempo.

173
00:08:36,000 –> 00:08:38,079
Speaker 1: Interesting you say bout a boom by the Being, because

174
00:08:38,080 –> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 1: those are two of the planets in this new solar

175
00:08:40,040 –> 00:08:44,199
Speaker 1: system are in in the playoffs. If Mahomes can win

176
00:08:44,280 –> 00:08:46,560
Speaker 1: this game, it would be his ninth playoff victory since

177
00:08:46,600 –> 00:08:49,000
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. If Andy Reid wins this game, it will

178
00:08:49,040 –> 00:08:52,440
Speaker 1: be his twentieth playoff victory. He will try Tom Landry

179
00:08:52,480 –> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 1: for second most in National Football League history. The reason

180
00:08:55,760 –> 00:08:59,439
Speaker 1: I say that is I waited twenty one seasons as

181
00:08:59,480 –> 00:09:01,480
Speaker 1: the voice of the Chiefs to get my first playoff winn.

182
00:09:01,520 –> 00:09:03,680
Speaker 1: And when you were talking, it was triggering all these thoughts.

183
00:09:04,480 –> 00:09:07,880
Speaker 1: Is so impressive with what Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes

184
00:09:07,880 –> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: have done in the playoffs, not just here, but in

185
00:09:10,120 –> 00:09:13,320
Speaker 1: Andy’s case, also in Philadelphia. So I saw Danen out

186
00:09:13,360 –> 00:09:16,200
Speaker 1: in the PR office a few hours ago waiting for

187
00:09:16,280 –> 00:09:19,560
Speaker 1: mediacas danon interviews the players when he’s here, and overheard

188
00:09:19,640 –> 00:09:22,199
Speaker 1: him talking about this, and it’s so true. People were

189
00:09:22,200 –> 00:09:24,240
Speaker 1: talking about coach of the year, right, Who’s going to

190
00:09:24,280 –> 00:09:25,760
Speaker 1: be the coach of the year. As it Brian day Bowle,

191
00:09:26,080 –> 00:09:29,040
Speaker 1: as it, Coach Peterson. There’s lots of good candidates. Sure

192
00:09:29,120 –> 00:09:31,360
Speaker 1: for coach of the year, it should be Andy Reid

193
00:09:31,640 –> 00:09:35,560
Speaker 1: in my opinion, and being good in the NFL is difficult.

194
00:09:35,800 –> 00:09:39,440
Speaker 1: Being consistently good in the NFL is next to impossible.

195
00:09:39,720 –> 00:09:41,640
Speaker 1: If you look at this current playoff field. Teams that

196
00:09:41,679 –> 00:09:43,480
Speaker 1: have gone from worst to first right, Teams that have

197
00:09:43,679 –> 00:09:46,559
Speaker 1: weren’t very good previously are now winning their division. The

198
00:09:46,640 –> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: Chiefs are just right there every single year with a

199
00:09:49,080 –> 00:09:51,280
Speaker 1: chance at winning the Super Bowl since Coach Red got here,

200
00:09:51,280 –> 00:09:54,480
Speaker 1: and certainly since Patrick Mahomes became our quarterback. And I

201
00:09:54,480 –> 00:09:58,160
Speaker 1: think it’s so impressive that with all these expectations on

202
00:09:58,200 –> 00:10:01,480
Speaker 1: the Chiefs every single season, they find a way to

203
00:10:01,600 –> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: meet that standard and they’re never satisfied with it. So

204
00:10:04,960 –> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: to go to four consecutive conference title games and to

205
00:10:08,080 –> 00:10:11,960
Speaker 1: have so much turnover on offense this past offseason, to

206
00:10:12,040 –> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 1: come into this year and to answer all the doubts

207
00:10:14,800 –> 00:10:17,280
Speaker 1: and questions from outside of the Kingdom with a fourteen

208
00:10:17,320 –> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: and three record, the top seed in the AFC and

209
00:10:20,360 –> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: a real shot at hopefully getting back to the conference

210
00:10:23,000 –> 00:10:25,360
Speaker 1: title game and then the super Bowl. It’s just an

211
00:10:25,360 –> 00:10:28,000
Speaker 1: amazing thing. And it’s a real testament to Coach Read

212
00:10:28,080 –> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: and how steady he is as a leader for this franchise.

213
00:10:30,880 –> 00:10:32,559
Speaker 1: I brought up the Landry stat to him. He’s like,

214
00:10:32,559 –> 00:10:34,280
Speaker 1: you know, I’m gonna check here. I was like, okay, okay,

215
00:10:36,360 –> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: but here’s what’s interesting you’re talking about worse to first.

216
00:10:38,760 –> 00:10:41,480
Speaker 1: That’s a great segue into this week’s divisional opponent because

217
00:10:41,480 –> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 1: it’s the Jacksonville Jaguars. And if I was wrong about this,

218
00:10:44,520 –> 00:10:46,200
Speaker 1: I wouldn’t bring it up. But Matt, I’m gonna let

219
00:10:46,280 –> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: you attest to this because after we played the Titans

220
00:10:50,120 –> 00:10:53,120
Speaker 1: in Week nine, the Jaguars in Week ten played him

221
00:10:53,120 –> 00:10:55,840
Speaker 1: back to back. And I know Malik Willis was quarterback

222
00:10:55,840 –> 00:10:57,640
Speaker 1: and then for the Titans, but Matt, I’ll let you

223
00:10:57,720 –> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 1: take over here. Yeah, so I’d done a deep die.

224
00:11:00,000 –> 00:11:02,760
Speaker 1: I’ve end up those two teams exactly in those two weeks.

225
00:11:02,880 –> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: And what did I tell you? Man? Slip and surge.

226
00:11:05,040 –> 00:11:07,160
Speaker 1: Mitch Is like, I see a slip and surge right here.

227
00:11:07,240 –> 00:11:08,880
Speaker 1: I really think the Titans are going to be one

228
00:11:08,880 –> 00:11:10,920
Speaker 1: of those teams that falls off a bit and the

229
00:11:10,960 –> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 1: Jags are going to take advantage of it. And you said,

230
00:11:13,679 –> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: I don’t know if it will happen this season, but

231
00:11:15,400 –> 00:11:17,439
Speaker 1: next season for sure, look out. But then all of

232
00:11:17,480 –> 00:11:20,200
Speaker 1: a sudden, it started happening right away this season. And

233
00:11:20,200 –> 00:11:23,480
Speaker 1: then when we were flying back from was it Vegas? Yeah,

234
00:11:23,480 –> 00:11:26,040
Speaker 1: it was Vegas, and we were watching the Jags play

235
00:11:26,080 –> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: the Titans for that playing Josh Allen running it in

236
00:11:28,440 –> 00:11:30,720
Speaker 1: off the scoop and score exactly. Yeah. I was watching

237
00:11:30,720 –> 00:11:32,640
Speaker 1: it on my phone on the Wi Fi on the plane,

238
00:11:32,840 –> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: and then when it was pretty obvious the Jags were

239
00:11:35,080 –> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: going to win that game, I went over and tapped it.

240
00:11:37,080 –> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 1: I was like, slip and searge. You called it, I

241
00:11:39,280 –> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 1: mean seven weeks ago. And it’s really speaking of a

242
00:11:42,960 –> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 1: testament to coach Reed. This is a testament to coach

243
00:11:44,960 –> 00:11:47,960
Speaker 1: Peterson and what he’s done there in Jacksonville. It’s truly

244
00:11:48,000 –> 00:11:50,439
Speaker 1: remarkable and again a steady influence. I mean, things could

245
00:11:50,440 –> 00:11:52,720
Speaker 1: have really unraveled there and they did not. They did

246
00:11:52,720 –> 00:11:55,760
Speaker 1: the opposite. They came together as a team and that’s

247
00:11:55,800 –> 00:11:57,800
Speaker 1: why they’re in this position right here. And it’ll be

248
00:11:57,840 –> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 1: a challenge for the Chiefs here on Saturday. Trade change

249
00:12:00,800 –> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 1: the Chief Kendom culture over these ten years, and you

250
00:12:03,559 –> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: just laid it out very well, so dramatically. He changed

251
00:12:07,280 –> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: the culture here to make it really the best team

252
00:12:09,520 –> 00:12:12,080
Speaker 1: in the NFL over a ten year period. But how

253
00:12:12,160 –> 00:12:16,319
Speaker 1: much is Doug Peterson doing that, Sean? And how much

254
00:12:16,360 –> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: does culture help you win in the playoffs. But the

255
00:12:19,920 –> 00:12:22,400
Speaker 1: one thing I’ve always said about coach Reid, and I

256
00:12:22,480 –> 00:12:24,480
Speaker 1: probably will say the same thing about coach Peterson is

257
00:12:24,480 –> 00:12:28,160
Speaker 1: the process always is greater than the production. You can

258
00:12:28,200 –> 00:12:34,680
Speaker 1: never gauge a coach by his season record. It’s the process.

259
00:12:34,679 –> 00:12:37,680
Speaker 1: Are the guys trusting in how he goes about his work,

260
00:12:38,080 –> 00:12:41,400
Speaker 1: the routine of the practice schedule, when to take off

261
00:12:41,840 –> 00:12:45,120
Speaker 1: and when the press, when to tell guys you know, hey,

262
00:12:45,320 –> 00:12:48,280
Speaker 1: you gotta sometimes you gotta praise them, and sometimes you

263
00:12:48,320 –> 00:12:49,680
Speaker 1: gotta take your foot and put it up to you

264
00:12:49,679 –> 00:12:51,520
Speaker 1: know what, and get him kind of get him going

265
00:12:51,520 –> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 1: a little bit and knowing when to do that and

266
00:12:53,679 –> 00:12:56,319
Speaker 1: when not to do it, when to understand guys got

267
00:12:56,360 –> 00:12:57,839
Speaker 1: things going on off the field. I gotta get this

268
00:12:57,880 –> 00:13:00,120
Speaker 1: guy a little bit more rope because he’s got some

269
00:13:00,160 –> 00:13:02,320
Speaker 1: things going off to field, the handle and then expecting

270
00:13:02,360 –> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 1: him have the expectation and when he’s back in the

271
00:13:04,440 –> 00:13:06,640
Speaker 1: building to be able to hey, it’s time to focus

272
00:13:06,679 –> 00:13:09,319
Speaker 1: back in and get a job done. And understanding that

273
00:13:09,400 –> 00:13:12,040
Speaker 1: kind of sacrifice and commitment that you’re asking all fifty

274
00:13:12,080 –> 00:13:14,760
Speaker 1: three guys to do. It’s not easy and it’s not

275
00:13:14,800 –> 00:13:17,480
Speaker 1: something you should take for granted as a coach. And

276
00:13:17,480 –> 00:13:21,000
Speaker 1: Andy always can can kind of testify firsthand about it

277
00:13:21,240 –> 00:13:23,520
Speaker 1: because he lives that life. He lives it, and he

278
00:13:23,559 –> 00:13:25,880
Speaker 1: asked the guys to do exactly what he does. When

279
00:13:25,880 –> 00:13:28,280
Speaker 1: you come in every day, check your personal stuff at

280
00:13:28,320 –> 00:13:30,560
Speaker 1: the door. Everything else needs to be hung up on

281
00:13:30,400 –> 00:13:32,240
Speaker 1: the on the hanger outside the door. When you come

282
00:13:32,280 –> 00:13:34,480
Speaker 1: into the building, you’re go into meeting rooms. You gotta

283
00:13:34,480 –> 00:13:37,040
Speaker 1: act like you treat them like men, and they respond

284
00:13:37,080 –> 00:13:40,079
Speaker 1: like men. They take care of business. And you’re here

285
00:13:40,160 –> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 1: in the in the interviews and you think it’s Patrick

286
00:13:42,280 –> 00:13:44,920
Speaker 1: just uh, you know, with some with some some some

287
00:13:44,960 –> 00:13:48,439
Speaker 1: good words and some good talk. But these guys enjoy playing.

288
00:13:48,440 –> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: They enjoy developing new plays and being around each other

289
00:13:51,440 –> 00:13:53,240
Speaker 1: having fun out there on the field. And it isn’t

290
00:13:53,360 –> 00:13:56,040
Speaker 1: doesn’t matter if it’s week one, a week, first week

291
00:13:56,040 –> 00:13:58,720
Speaker 1: of the playoffs, or it’s getting ready for the super Bowl.

292
00:13:58,960 –> 00:14:02,200
Speaker 1: They actually loved around each other. They loved preparing to

293
00:14:02,480 –> 00:14:05,080
Speaker 1: whatever that next challenge is. And they want that next

294
00:14:05,120 –> 00:14:08,319
Speaker 1: challenge to be that team full strength at its best.

295
00:14:08,400 –> 00:14:11,199
Speaker 1: They always want to be challenged to push the envelope

296
00:14:11,240 –> 00:14:15,040
Speaker 1: so they can push themselves to either a higher plane

297
00:14:15,080 –> 00:14:16,760
Speaker 1: of playing. And so you got to just take your

298
00:14:16,760 –> 00:14:18,360
Speaker 1: hat off and you just, you know, tip a hat

299
00:14:18,360 –> 00:14:20,680
Speaker 1: to coach Peterson because he’s been able to recreate that

300
00:14:20,800 –> 00:14:22,920
Speaker 1: not only at Jacksonville, but he did the same thing

301
00:14:22,920 –> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 1: at the Eagles when they were not successful. He went

302
00:14:25,000 –> 00:14:28,240
Speaker 1: in there and did the same thing. So the process

303
00:14:28,280 –> 00:14:31,520
Speaker 1: being greater than the production. Love it, and I respect

304
00:14:32,120 –> 00:14:34,840
Speaker 1: Doug a lot and been with him here three years.

305
00:14:35,520 –> 00:14:37,120
Speaker 1: That leads me to im get your thought on the

306
00:14:37,200 –> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 1: Jaguars defense here, because that’s where I want to start,

307
00:14:39,440 –> 00:14:41,600
Speaker 1: Matt with you. When I look at what they’ve done

308
00:14:42,280 –> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 1: twenty seven takeaways, that’s only three teams had more in

309
00:14:44,960 –> 00:14:48,280
Speaker 1: the league. Thirteen fumble recoveries, only Dallas had more, and

310
00:14:48,360 –> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 1: only New England had more takeaway points. But it’s been

311
00:14:50,880 –> 00:14:55,000
Speaker 1: the pressure rate by the Jaguars since that game against

312
00:14:55,040 –> 00:14:58,840
Speaker 1: the Chiefs, a thirty seven point four pressure rate since

313
00:14:58,920 –> 00:15:01,800
Speaker 1: Week nine. Played in Week ten, but this really got

314
00:15:01,840 –> 00:15:05,520
Speaker 1: amped up. Only the Philadelphia Eagles have had a higher

315
00:15:05,520 –> 00:15:09,800
Speaker 1: pressure rate than the Jacksonville Jaguars, and that seems to

316
00:15:09,840 –> 00:15:12,120
Speaker 1: be And here’s what I heard around the building this

317
00:15:12,160 –> 00:15:15,360
Speaker 1: week from some players and some coaches is that, hey,

318
00:15:15,640 –> 00:15:17,000
Speaker 1: you know, what’s the difference. What are you seen in

319
00:15:17,080 –> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: them that they’re trusting the process more. These are young

320
00:15:20,200 –> 00:15:22,600
Speaker 1: talented players, right. I mean you got Walker, who’s a

321
00:15:22,640 –> 00:15:25,120
Speaker 1: one one, you got Devin Lloyd, you got all these dudes.

322
00:15:25,360 –> 00:15:28,480
Speaker 1: But now they’re going, Okay, we see what we’re why

323
00:15:28,520 –> 00:15:30,920
Speaker 1: we’re supposed to do this. And it’s been impressive to

324
00:15:30,960 –> 00:15:34,320
Speaker 1: see what the Jaguars defense has done since week ten. Yeah,

325
00:15:34,360 –> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: it’s funny because prior to week ten, we were talking

326
00:15:36,560 –> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: about this team and it was twofold that was like,

327
00:15:38,760 –> 00:15:41,760
Speaker 1: this team is super talented, but they’re also young and

328
00:15:41,760 –> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: they’re gonna make young player mistakes and we can see that.

329
00:15:45,200 –> 00:15:47,120
Speaker 1: But they have some really good players and they’ve really

330
00:15:47,120 –> 00:15:49,720
Speaker 1: been putting it together over the second half of the season.

331
00:15:50,120 –> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 1: Guys like Josh Allen six sacks this year, Trayvon Walker,

332
00:15:53,280 –> 00:15:55,560
Speaker 1: you mentioned him, three and a half sacks. His production

333
00:15:55,600 –> 00:15:57,520
Speaker 1: goes beyond just the sacks too, Like you can see

334
00:15:57,600 –> 00:15:59,600
Speaker 1: him on tape. You’re like, this guy is really good.

335
00:16:00,160 –> 00:16:01,880
Speaker 1: And arden Key, you know, a guy that’s been around

336
00:16:01,880 –> 00:16:03,760
Speaker 1: a while, has four and a half sacks this year.

337
00:16:04,000 –> 00:16:07,240
Speaker 1: Coach bi Enemy earlier today mentioned how when you have

338
00:16:07,280 –> 00:16:09,200
Speaker 1: a twenty seven point come back, a lot of things

339
00:16:09,200 –> 00:16:11,280
Speaker 1: have to happen, right, But he said, I believe the

340
00:16:11,360 –> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 1: Jaguars defensive line is where they won that game because

341
00:16:14,440 –> 00:16:16,480
Speaker 1: in the second half they allowed the Chargers to score

342
00:16:16,520 –> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 1: just three points. And it takes both to get a comeback, right,

343
00:16:19,840 –> 00:16:21,360
Speaker 1: You can’t just score a bunch of points yourself. You

344
00:16:21,360 –> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 1: have to make sure your defense also is holding the

345
00:16:23,040 –> 00:16:26,280
Speaker 1: opposition down and they certainly did that and it began upfront.

346
00:16:26,320 –> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: So their defense is impressive. They are still young. If

347
00:16:29,120 –> 00:16:30,880
Speaker 1: you’re looking for one thing as a Chiefs fan, where’s

348
00:16:30,880 –> 00:16:33,000
Speaker 1: a weakness for this group? They had the second most

349
00:16:33,040 –> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: mistackles of any team in the NFL, but that has

350
00:16:35,720 –> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 1: seemed to improve as a season has gone on. So

351
00:16:38,600 –> 00:16:40,240
Speaker 1: for the Chiefs and this one again, I mean, this

352
00:16:40,400 –> 00:16:41,920
Speaker 1: is a good defense and we saw it back in

353
00:16:41,920 –> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: Week ten. They’re very physical. They’re not going to be

354
00:16:44,160 –> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 1: scared of the Chiefs here in this game. Oh no.

355
00:16:46,040 –> 00:16:48,800
Speaker 1: And you mentioned Tron Walker. His pressure weight from the

356
00:16:48,840 –> 00:16:51,000
Speaker 1: first time they played the Chiefs went from five point

357
00:16:51,040 –> 00:16:54,080
Speaker 1: one to fifteen point one. It was the largest increase

358
00:16:54,080 –> 00:16:56,560
Speaker 1: of any player in the National Football League. So this

359
00:16:56,560 –> 00:16:59,760
Speaker 1: team is feisty shop. And what the Chiefs offense has

360
00:16:59,800 –> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: to do. Remember Andre Cisco is hit on both Juju

361
00:17:04,600 –> 00:17:07,880
Speaker 1: Smith Schuster and Mark quisveld Is scantling. Ray Seun Jenkins

362
00:17:08,280 –> 00:17:10,320
Speaker 1: wins that game that you were talking about we were

363
00:17:10,320 –> 00:17:12,560
Speaker 1: watching on the plane because he comes in and rips

364
00:17:12,560 –> 00:17:14,840
Speaker 1: the ball out from Dobbs and there goes Josh Shalen

365
00:17:14,920 –> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: to win the get him into the playoffs. Feisty, young, nasty,

366
00:17:19,119 –> 00:17:22,000
Speaker 1: they’re gonna rip the ball out. If you’re the Chiefs offense,

367
00:17:22,280 –> 00:17:24,720
Speaker 1: talk me through this well defensively, you know they’re gonna

368
00:17:24,840 –> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: try to They’re gonna try to do exactly what we said.

369
00:17:27,200 –> 00:17:29,160
Speaker 1: They’re gonna be aggressive, they’re gonna strip the ball. They’re

370
00:17:29,200 –> 00:17:31,959
Speaker 1: gonna take some chances. They’re rather punch the ball than

371
00:17:32,040 –> 00:17:36,040
Speaker 1: secure tackle. So you have to be very turnover aware

372
00:17:36,320 –> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: on every instance of the ball game, whether you’re the

373
00:17:39,720 –> 00:17:43,000
Speaker 1: quarterback about to deliver the pass, receiver receiving it, wherever

374
00:17:43,000 –> 00:17:44,960
Speaker 1: you’re ad on the field, you gotta be alert that

375
00:17:45,040 –> 00:17:47,320
Speaker 1: there’s gonna be hands and you know, trying to rip

376
00:17:47,359 –> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 1: the ball out create turnovers. But you can take advantage

377
00:17:49,920 –> 00:17:54,400
Speaker 1: of their athleticism in their aggressiveness and by what we’ve

378
00:17:54,400 –> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 1: been doing all year. Our shifts and motions always cause

379
00:17:58,440 –> 00:18:01,840
Speaker 1: defenses a little bit of unsureness and that’s the one thing.

380
00:18:01,840 –> 00:18:03,560
Speaker 1: If you want to be a confident defense, you want

381
00:18:03,560 –> 00:18:06,440
Speaker 1: to play fast, everybody has to be on the same page.

382
00:18:06,880 –> 00:18:09,480
Speaker 1: The D line has to be able to understand when

383
00:18:09,480 –> 00:18:12,040
Speaker 1: they can take window rushers and go inside and and

384
00:18:11,880 –> 00:18:15,640
Speaker 1: and give up a outside um scrambled to the quarterback.

385
00:18:15,800 –> 00:18:17,840
Speaker 1: The linebacker’s got to be able to be one hundred

386
00:18:17,880 –> 00:18:20,880
Speaker 1: percent on formations and shifts and motions to make sure

387
00:18:20,880 –> 00:18:23,560
Speaker 1: they get the secondary and the D line in the

388
00:18:23,640 –> 00:18:26,520
Speaker 1: right gaps. And then the secondary has to trust the

389
00:18:26,600 –> 00:18:29,639
Speaker 1: pressure will get there so they can trust their technique.

390
00:18:29,960 –> 00:18:32,960
Speaker 1: If every level of that defense doesn’t trust one another

391
00:18:33,119 –> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 1: and they don’t communicate, then things unravel when they give

392
00:18:36,240 –> 00:18:38,200
Speaker 1: a big place and that’s what happened to them early

393
00:18:38,280 –> 00:18:39,720
Speaker 1: in the game against the Charges. They gave it a

394
00:18:39,760 –> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: lot of big plays because of mental mistakes. But they

395
00:18:43,320 –> 00:18:45,480
Speaker 1: were they were they were they were persistent enough to

396
00:18:45,480 –> 00:18:48,600
Speaker 1: stay with it. So we have to really be very

397
00:18:48,640 –> 00:18:53,119
Speaker 1: confidence and very solidified on our shifts and motions. And

398
00:18:53,160 –> 00:18:55,600
Speaker 1: when we get them out of their position, we gotta

399
00:18:55,640 –> 00:18:57,000
Speaker 1: make them pay. And when you gotta make them pay,

400
00:18:57,000 –> 00:18:59,760
Speaker 1: you gotta make them pay for touchdowns and that field goals. Yeah,

401
00:19:00,040 –> 00:19:02,600
Speaker 1: you say taking chances. That triggers mex thop and I’m

402
00:19:02,640 –> 00:19:05,440
Speaker 1: gonna with the close it on the Jags defense this way.

403
00:19:05,840 –> 00:19:08,520
Speaker 1: To me, the biggest moment in that game was Jamal

404
00:19:08,560 –> 00:19:10,600
Speaker 1: agnew muff the punt. Now he’s a threat to go

405
00:19:10,640 –> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 1: every time. He’s got some Tomorrow Van over in him,

406
00:19:12,720 –> 00:19:15,119
Speaker 1: like he’s gonna just go, but he must the punt.

407
00:19:15,640 –> 00:19:18,280
Speaker 1: Chargers get the ball at the six, they gain one yard,

408
00:19:18,480 –> 00:19:21,399
Speaker 1: they kick a field goal, and it’s twenty seven to nothing,

409
00:19:21,480 –> 00:19:23,520
Speaker 1: not thirty four to nothing. And now all of a sudden,

410
00:19:23,520 –> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: you’re going, well, the door’s still open here, and we

411
00:19:25,880 –> 00:19:29,120
Speaker 1: all know what happened after that. But you say taking chances.

412
00:19:29,560 –> 00:19:32,520
Speaker 1: That gets me now to the other side of this discussion, Matt,

413
00:19:32,520 –> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 1: and I’ll start with you, and that is this Jaguar offense.

414
00:19:35,520 –> 00:19:38,119
Speaker 1: Why did they beat the Chargers? They went for two

415
00:19:38,640 –> 00:19:40,520
Speaker 1: in that game and got it. It was a two

416
00:19:40,520 –> 00:19:42,400
Speaker 1: point game and they get the walk off field goal.

417
00:19:42,920 –> 00:19:46,200
Speaker 1: Only Arizona went for two more than the Jacksonville Jaguars

418
00:19:46,359 –> 00:19:50,679
Speaker 1: this season. Fourth down, they went for it twice against

419
00:19:50,800 –> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 1: US in Week ten on sidekick. What are we looking

420
00:19:54,920 –> 00:19:58,239
Speaker 1: at here? Man? Yeah? Well, I mean Coach Peterson’s coach Peterson, right,

421
00:19:58,280 –> 00:20:00,919
Speaker 1: I mean, think about the Philly Special with the Eagles.

422
00:20:00,960 –> 00:20:03,680
Speaker 1: He’s gonna take chances. He’s not scared and I respect that,

423
00:20:03,920 –> 00:20:06,320
Speaker 1: and I think he knows when you’re playing an opponent

424
00:20:06,400 –> 00:20:08,040
Speaker 1: like the Chiefs in the Hall of Fame, coach like

425
00:20:08,320 –> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: Coach Reid, and a great player like Patrick Mahomes, the

426
00:20:11,000 –> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 1: best quarterback in the NFL, you have to take chances,

427
00:20:13,359 –> 00:20:15,120
Speaker 1: and the Chiefs have to be ready for those chances.

428
00:20:15,600 –> 00:20:17,159
Speaker 1: There’s a lot of good to take out of the

429
00:20:17,200 –> 00:20:19,800
Speaker 1: Chiefs victory over the Jags back in Week ten, but

430
00:20:19,840 –> 00:20:22,120
Speaker 1: there is also plenty to learn from in that game.

431
00:20:22,320 –> 00:20:25,119
Speaker 1: There’s three giveaways by the Chiefs in that game and

432
00:20:25,240 –> 00:20:28,360
Speaker 1: the lost on side kick, so essentially four lost possessions

433
00:20:28,760 –> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 1: in that game. Now, it’s good for the Chiefs they

434
00:20:31,119 –> 00:20:33,680
Speaker 1: won by ten, but there’s room for growth there. So

435
00:20:34,240 –> 00:20:35,879
Speaker 1: in this game, the Chiefs just have to be ready

436
00:20:36,160 –> 00:20:38,960
Speaker 1: for the unexpected. I think it helps that they’ve played

437
00:20:38,960 –> 00:20:41,320
Speaker 1: the Jags already kind of know what they do, and yeah,

438
00:20:41,359 –> 00:20:43,040
Speaker 1: they’re a much better team than when we saw them

439
00:20:43,040 –> 00:20:44,880
Speaker 1: back in Week ten. But you’ve got to be ready

440
00:20:44,920 –> 00:20:47,080
Speaker 1: for the unexpected because those kind of things are magnified

441
00:20:47,119 –> 00:20:48,920
Speaker 1: in the postseason. Yeah, and one of those fumbles was

442
00:20:48,920 –> 00:20:51,800
Speaker 1: a Jody Fortson fielding a pooch kick. So it’s not

443
00:20:51,840 –> 00:20:54,640
Speaker 1: just on side kicks. You’re gonna get pooch kicks from

444
00:20:54,680 –> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 1: this team. And who knows everything else, like every two

445
00:20:57,880 –> 00:21:00,040
Speaker 1: point conversion play that you can have a mad and

446
00:21:00,160 –> 00:21:02,359
Speaker 1: Dougs probably thought of it, and the Chiefs defense has

447
00:21:02,400 –> 00:21:04,120
Speaker 1: to be ready. I’m gonna ask you about it from

448
00:21:04,160 –> 00:21:07,560
Speaker 1: the Chiefs defensive standpoint against this offense. Let me let

449
00:21:07,560 –> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 1: me ask you now about it because training yourself that

450
00:21:10,440 –> 00:21:13,640
Speaker 1: second down is third down, third down is fourth down,

451
00:21:14,160 –> 00:21:17,480
Speaker 1: and that after a touchdown they’re gonna go for two.

452
00:21:18,000 –> 00:21:20,680
Speaker 1: That how much do you have to train your brain

453
00:21:20,760 –> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 1: and your body for that as a defensive player, Well,

454
00:21:22,720 –> 00:21:25,679
Speaker 1: everybody wants to worry and really get hyper focused on

455
00:21:25,720 –> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 1: third down. Right, that’s the way we get off the field.

456
00:21:27,600 –> 00:21:30,720
Speaker 1: That’s that’s the day when you gotta really is third down.

457
00:21:30,720 –> 00:21:33,000
Speaker 1: We gotta we gotta bring our big horses and our

458
00:21:33,000 –> 00:21:35,679
Speaker 1: big guns on No, it’s first and second down. You

459
00:21:35,760 –> 00:21:38,119
Speaker 1: gotta set up a team with third and long to

460
00:21:38,200 –> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 1: make sure that your third nowns are manageable for your

461
00:21:40,840 –> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 1: guys to really go pinning their ears back and get

462
00:21:43,400 –> 00:21:45,960
Speaker 1: after the quarterback. And so when you’re on third down

463
00:21:46,040 –> 00:21:49,080
Speaker 1: and the ball carry is you know it’s three or

464
00:21:49,080 –> 00:21:52,159
Speaker 1: four yards short, and you don’t tackle him and make

465
00:21:52,240 –> 00:21:55,440
Speaker 1: him go backwards, you allow a little uh one or

466
00:21:55,480 –> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 1: two yards to be you know, gatting at the given

467
00:21:58,760 –> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 1: at the end of that tackle was instead of being

468
00:22:01,040 –> 00:22:03,520
Speaker 1: fourth and three in a definite punt, now it makes

469
00:22:03,520 –> 00:22:05,960
Speaker 1: it fourth and one, and it brings up those scenarios

470
00:22:06,000 –> 00:22:08,800
Speaker 1: over and over again. So at the end of plays,

471
00:22:08,840 –> 00:22:11,560
Speaker 1: when you see all those those those sneaky hidden yardage

472
00:22:11,560 –> 00:22:14,240
Speaker 1: of an extra yard or extra two yards being getting

473
00:22:14,680 –> 00:22:17,040
Speaker 1: gained at the end of a big third dawn or

474
00:22:17,040 –> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 1: an end of a big second dawn, all of that

475
00:22:19,200 –> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 1: yardage comes into play when he’s trying to think about

476
00:22:21,960 –> 00:22:27,240
Speaker 1: whether we’re gonna go for it. Field position, situational awareness,

477
00:22:27,240 –> 00:22:29,520
Speaker 1: all of those things come into play. So when we

478
00:22:29,560 –> 00:22:31,080
Speaker 1: say we have this has to be one of the

479
00:22:31,119 –> 00:22:35,040
Speaker 1: games where we are the most sure tackling team in

480
00:22:35,080 –> 00:22:37,159
Speaker 1: the building, we have to make sure we do it

481
00:22:37,320 –> 00:22:41,040
Speaker 1: every single down. Defensively, you gotta hunt is a pack.

482
00:22:41,240 –> 00:22:43,320
Speaker 1: You got a hunts of unit. You’re all one of eleven.

483
00:22:43,560 –> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 1: But when you get there, you gotta get there with

484
00:22:45,320 –> 00:22:48,679
Speaker 1: a purpose, and it’s gang tackling. It’s pushing that pal backwards.

485
00:22:48,960 –> 00:22:52,960
Speaker 1: No extra yards given after contact, and it leads me

486
00:22:53,000 –> 00:22:54,919
Speaker 1: to him. Want to ask you about Travish CTN. We’re

487
00:22:54,960 –> 00:22:57,080
Speaker 1: gonna get into Trevor Lawrence here in the receiving corp.

488
00:22:57,080 –> 00:22:58,480
Speaker 1: But I want to go to Travish ct and the

489
00:22:58,560 –> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 1: Chiefs held him eleven forty five yards in that game

490
00:23:02,119 –> 00:23:04,040
Speaker 1: back in Week ten. But this is a team that

491
00:23:04,160 –> 00:23:07,239
Speaker 1: led the NFL and fifty plus runs. They led the

492
00:23:07,320 –> 00:23:11,560
Speaker 1: NFL in four touchdown runs of fifteen yards or more.

493
00:23:11,880 –> 00:23:13,520
Speaker 1: We saw what he did on the twenty five yard

494
00:23:13,640 –> 00:23:18,520
Speaker 1: run on fourth and one. Right, it’s a T formation

495
00:23:18,600 –> 00:23:21,879
Speaker 1: for like twenty eight sweep like nineteen thirties football. But

496
00:23:21,960 –> 00:23:24,120
Speaker 1: at work and Doug did a great job. He saw

497
00:23:24,200 –> 00:23:26,000
Speaker 1: the a gap and big gap. He’s like this cold

498
00:23:26,080 –> 00:23:28,320
Speaker 1: up time out, We’re gonna run the perimeter um if

499
00:23:28,359 –> 00:23:30,879
Speaker 1: the Chargers stay in that defense, which they did. But

500
00:23:31,119 –> 00:23:35,080
Speaker 1: Travis Etn mainly is the because that triggered the thought

501
00:23:35,119 –> 00:23:37,920
Speaker 1: of what Shop was talking about. How and this guy

502
00:23:38,280 –> 00:23:41,800
Speaker 1: has reached twenty miles an hour on runs four times

503
00:23:41,800 –> 00:23:44,960
Speaker 1: this season. Not a receiver, This isn’t Mark quisveld is

504
00:23:45,000 –> 00:23:47,600
Speaker 1: scaling running. This is as a runner, getting up to

505
00:23:47,640 –> 00:23:49,879
Speaker 1: twenty miles an hour as a runner. Yeah, he’s a stud.

506
00:23:49,960 –> 00:23:53,680
Speaker 1: He’s a super dynamic player. And it was obvious early

507
00:23:53,720 –> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 1: on this season, which is basically his rookie season because

508
00:23:56,359 –> 00:23:58,360
Speaker 1: he missed all of last year, that he was going

509
00:23:58,400 –> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: to be the guy on this team. And that’s why

510
00:24:00,600 –> 00:24:03,840
Speaker 1: they felt comfortable trading away James Robinson. And since Week six,

511
00:24:03,920 –> 00:24:07,000
Speaker 1: when Etn essentially became the starter, he’s eighth in the

512
00:24:07,119 –> 00:24:10,280
Speaker 1: NFL in total scrimmage yards with more than eleven hundred

513
00:24:10,400 –> 00:24:13,000
Speaker 1: on the ground. Is just a runner. He averaged five

514
00:24:13,040 –> 00:24:15,480
Speaker 1: point one yards per carry this season and is more

515
00:24:15,480 –> 00:24:18,520
Speaker 1: than fourteen hundred scrimmage yards this year made up twenty

516
00:24:18,560 –> 00:24:21,960
Speaker 1: three percent of the Jags total as a team. If

517
00:24:21,960 –> 00:24:24,600
Speaker 1: you want to stop the Jags, it begins with stopping

518
00:24:24,760 –> 00:24:27,440
Speaker 1: Travis Etn, because if Trevor Lawrence is able to hand

519
00:24:27,440 –> 00:24:29,200
Speaker 1: the ball off or find him in the short passing

520
00:24:29,200 –> 00:24:32,400
Speaker 1: game really opens up everything else. Now, like you said,

521
00:24:32,400 –> 00:24:34,640
Speaker 1: the good news is the Chiefs actually contained him back

522
00:24:34,640 –> 00:24:37,160
Speaker 1: in Week ten. Coming into that game, he had five

523
00:24:37,240 –> 00:24:39,879
Speaker 1: straight games of at least one hundred yards from scrimmage

524
00:24:39,880 –> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: that Chiefs held him to just seventy three yards from

525
00:24:42,080 –> 00:24:44,520
Speaker 1: scrimmage in that game, really never got going. Had one

526
00:24:44,600 –> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 1: twenty four yard catch, but outside of that really didn’t

527
00:24:46,800 –> 00:24:49,080
Speaker 1: have too much of an impact on the game. We

528
00:24:49,119 –> 00:24:51,919
Speaker 1: need a similar performance this time around because the Jags

529
00:24:51,920 –> 00:24:54,480
Speaker 1: really go the way for the most part of Travis

530
00:24:54,480 –> 00:24:56,320
Speaker 1: etn I’m with your all the way on it. Now,

531
00:24:56,560 –> 00:24:58,280
Speaker 1: give me your because this is real quick. Give me

532
00:24:58,359 –> 00:24:59,720
Speaker 1: York because we’re going to wrap it up here. But

533
00:25:00,160 –> 00:25:04,560
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence release time right now is either the fastest

534
00:25:04,720 –> 00:25:07,120
Speaker 1: or next the fastest in the league, and I’m coming

535
00:25:07,119 –> 00:25:09,000
Speaker 1: to you with it. Just give me the number. Well,

536
00:25:09,000 –> 00:25:12,000
Speaker 1: this is this is where I’m super nerdy, right, Trevor Lawrence.

537
00:25:12,040 –> 00:25:13,400
Speaker 1: I texted you. I was like, you got to see

538
00:25:13,400 –> 00:25:15,520
Speaker 1: this and no one else would care about this. Trevor Lawrence.

539
00:25:15,640 –> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: His average time to throw is two point five two seconds.

540
00:25:18,600 –> 00:25:21,200
Speaker 1: That’s the third fastest of any quarterback in the NFL.

541
00:25:21,480 –> 00:25:23,960
Speaker 1: When he gets rid of the football quickly, he’s among

542
00:25:23,960 –> 00:25:25,840
Speaker 1: the best quarterbacks in football if you look at pro

543
00:25:25,840 –> 00:25:28,840
Speaker 1: football focused numbers or any other kind of basic metric.

544
00:25:29,080 –> 00:25:31,320
Speaker 1: But when he holds onto the ball, he struggles, and

545
00:25:31,359 –> 00:25:34,439
Speaker 1: he really struggles under pressure. According to PFF, he is

546
00:25:34,440 –> 00:25:37,880
Speaker 1: the fourth worst quarterback in the NFL under pressure this year,

547
00:25:37,960 –> 00:25:40,600
Speaker 1: but the fourth best when he’s kept clean. And here’s

548
00:25:40,600 –> 00:25:42,280
Speaker 1: why I’m coming to you on a chop, because you

549
00:25:42,359 –> 00:25:44,040
Speaker 1: were ahead of your time. You were ahead of your time.

550
00:25:44,040 –> 00:25:45,800
Speaker 1: I’m going to say this as at you were ahead

551
00:25:45,920 –> 00:25:48,679
Speaker 1: of your time. My favorite and Matt knows this. And

552
00:25:48,720 –> 00:25:51,280
Speaker 1: if people saw our text back and forth late at night,

553
00:25:51,560 –> 00:25:55,639
Speaker 1: they’d go, what are you what? Like? Oh man, I

554
00:25:55,680 –> 00:25:57,920
Speaker 1: found this one. What do you think? It’s a really

555
00:25:57,960 –> 00:26:00,960
Speaker 1: a very weird life. It is my favorite. Trade it

556
00:26:01,000 –> 00:26:02,199
Speaker 1: for anything. Now you know where I’m going with this.

557
00:26:02,320 –> 00:26:05,200
Speaker 1: My favorite defensive staff though. Of the Kansas City Chiefs

558
00:26:05,200 –> 00:26:09,800
Speaker 1: defense of twenty twenty two thirty three passes defensed by

559
00:26:09,840 –> 00:26:14,240
Speaker 1: players who are not defensive backs, Dunlap’s got eight, carloftis

560
00:26:14,280 –> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: tied for the rookie lead with seven, Chris Jones has four,

561
00:26:17,800 –> 00:26:19,760
Speaker 1: Mike Dan has got a couple, Willie Gay Junior has

562
00:26:19,760 –> 00:26:21,840
Speaker 1: got a couple, including a pick six off the tip.

563
00:26:22,480 –> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence. Three of his four interceptions, You guys against

564
00:26:25,800 –> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: the Chargers were on the flections. Now you were way

565
00:26:29,119 –> 00:26:31,480
Speaker 1: ahead of your time because you were doing this before

566
00:26:31,560 –> 00:26:35,240
Speaker 1: people were really doing it. So this quick release time,

567
00:26:35,280 –> 00:26:37,640
Speaker 1: you can’t get to him necessarily a sack him. Yeah,

568
00:26:37,680 –> 00:26:41,000
Speaker 1: So what about getting deflections and creating habits? Well, JJ

569
00:26:41,119 –> 00:26:44,280
Speaker 1: Watt made an entire career about batting balls down, getting

570
00:26:44,280 –> 00:26:48,040
Speaker 1: in the windows of the passer, and understanding how to

571
00:26:48,040 –> 00:26:51,119
Speaker 1: read the quarterback’s eyes. And if there’s one thing that

572
00:26:51,480 –> 00:26:55,159
Speaker 1: Trevor is not doing great as a young quarterback, obviously

573
00:26:55,200 –> 00:26:58,320
Speaker 1: he’s ascending. His eyes are locking in to receive his

574
00:26:58,400 –> 00:27:00,800
Speaker 1: way too early. And when you do that, it allows

575
00:27:00,800 –> 00:27:02,800
Speaker 1: the d line to figure out where those lanes are

576
00:27:02,880 –> 00:27:04,840
Speaker 1: and get these big paws up. When you want to

577
00:27:04,880 –> 00:27:07,600
Speaker 1: stop slants and you want to start short hook routes,

578
00:27:07,880 –> 00:27:10,320
Speaker 1: you can’t ask the dbs to play zone in the

579
00:27:10,400 –> 00:27:13,359
Speaker 1: first five yards. That is almost like a no cover zone.

580
00:27:13,359 –> 00:27:16,200
Speaker 1: We call it no cover zone in zone defense because

581
00:27:16,200 –> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: you want to make sure you’re protecting the back end

582
00:27:17,960 –> 00:27:19,919
Speaker 1: and be able to react on those balls they are

583
00:27:19,920 –> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 1: beyond five yards, so you expect the d lineman you

584
00:27:23,200 –> 00:27:25,600
Speaker 1: all take away the slants, you all take away those short,

585
00:27:25,880 –> 00:27:28,560
Speaker 1: quick three step drops and allow us to sit back

586
00:27:28,560 –> 00:27:32,520
Speaker 1: in our zones and mesh and melt towards zone coverage.

587
00:27:32,960 –> 00:27:34,600
Speaker 1: If that’s not the case, then you’re gonna be caught

588
00:27:34,680 –> 00:27:36,560
Speaker 1: up in a lot of man coverage. And the one

589
00:27:36,600 –> 00:27:39,280
Speaker 1: thing we know about the Jacksonville Jaguars, they are built

590
00:27:39,320 –> 00:27:41,760
Speaker 1: to go there. They’re a fast team. They want to

591
00:27:41,800 –> 00:27:44,359
Speaker 1: fast track, they want to get vertical. They want we

592
00:27:44,400 –> 00:27:46,879
Speaker 1: call it spaghetti on the plate, receivers going all across

593
00:27:46,920 –> 00:27:49,760
Speaker 1: the field, trying to bump off in man coverage to

594
00:27:50,080 –> 00:27:52,360
Speaker 1: open up guys dawn the field for big plays. That’s

595
00:27:52,359 –> 00:27:54,960
Speaker 1: where they get those twenty plus yard plays from. But

596
00:27:55,000 –> 00:27:56,920
Speaker 1: if you can sit back in some zone and allow

597
00:27:56,960 –> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 1: the d line and linebackers to get their hands up

598
00:27:58,880 –> 00:28:01,440
Speaker 1: in bat balls down again, he’s not doing a great

599
00:28:01,520 –> 00:28:03,680
Speaker 1: job of looking off where he’s going with the ball,

600
00:28:03,760 –> 00:28:06,800
Speaker 1: so you take advantage of that. The Charges took advantage

601
00:28:06,800 –> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 1: that land to an early early interception that started to

602
00:28:10,160 –> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: sway that you know that avalanche one way, But that team,

603
00:28:13,520 –> 00:28:16,080
Speaker 1: they continue to stay with what they do. They’re not

604
00:28:16,119 –> 00:28:18,280
Speaker 1: gonna change him. They’re not gonna change anything about him.

605
00:28:18,440 –> 00:28:20,080
Speaker 1: They believe that he’s the guy’s gonna take him to

606
00:28:20,119 –> 00:28:22,880
Speaker 1: the Promised Land. And we gotta pull a man. All

607
00:28:23,040 –> 00:28:25,840
Speaker 1: systems got to stop, and everybody got to realize this

608
00:28:25,920 –> 00:28:27,920
Speaker 1: young man, when the ball is coming out, you gotta

609
00:28:27,960 –> 00:28:29,800
Speaker 1: get in those passing lanes and get your mitts on

610
00:28:29,840 –> 00:28:31,800
Speaker 1: the ball to make the defense have a chance to

611
00:28:32,359 –> 00:28:35,320
Speaker 1: intercept him make a big play. Yeah, I think Trevor

612
00:28:35,359 –> 00:28:37,560
Speaker 1: Lawrence is a great quarterback. Never lost on a Saturday.

613
00:28:37,560 –> 00:28:40,120
Speaker 1: How many we’ve seen that? All we long? Right, I’m

614
00:28:40,120 –> 00:28:41,600
Speaker 1: gonna go, wait a minute, can we go back to

615
00:28:41,680 –> 00:28:44,640
Speaker 1: Pop Warner? But I can find something back in there.

616
00:28:45,080 –> 00:28:47,120
Speaker 1: But to me, he’s six six and he’s trying to

617
00:28:47,160 –> 00:28:50,800
Speaker 1: find different arm slots. And I mean, Randy Johnson wasn’t

618
00:28:50,800 –> 00:28:53,680
Speaker 1: coming from like some weird arm slot Mac Scherzer might.

619
00:28:53,960 –> 00:28:56,160
Speaker 1: So Randy Johnson’s blowing you up with one hundred mile

620
00:28:56,240 –> 00:28:58,800
Speaker 1: fastballs coming from the six sixth angle. And to me,

621
00:28:58,920 –> 00:29:01,400
Speaker 1: too many of his passes get blocked and deflected. They do.

622
00:29:01,520 –> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: He’s trying to find different like arm angles off helmets

623
00:29:04,560 –> 00:29:06,600
Speaker 1: of his own players. All right, final thought, let’s go

624
00:29:06,600 –> 00:29:08,280
Speaker 1: around the horn. I’m gonna ask you about the receiving

625
00:29:08,280 –> 00:29:10,760
Speaker 1: corps because we really haven’t touched on that. You and

626
00:29:10,800 –> 00:29:14,400
Speaker 1: I did on Kingdom Conversations, But just quickly, your thoughts

627
00:29:14,400 –> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 1: on the receiving corps your final thought, and then I’ll

628
00:29:16,440 –> 00:29:18,320
Speaker 1: wrap it up. Yeah, well, they have some guys in

629
00:29:18,360 –> 00:29:21,200
Speaker 1: the receiving corps. They spread the football around. They got

630
00:29:21,240 –> 00:29:23,880
Speaker 1: four dudes with at least five hundred receiving yards this season,

631
00:29:24,000 –> 00:29:27,800
Speaker 1: Christian Kirk, Zay Jones, Evan Ingram, and Marvin Jones. Kirk

632
00:29:27,840 –> 00:29:31,600
Speaker 1: and zay Jones each have at least eighty catches this year,

633
00:29:31,720 –> 00:29:33,800
Speaker 1: So he’ll spread the football all over the place. I

634
00:29:33,800 –> 00:29:37,040
Speaker 1: mentioned it really begins with ETN, but once ETN gets

635
00:29:37,080 –> 00:29:39,240
Speaker 1: work and all of a sudden, that quick passing game,

636
00:29:39,360 –> 00:29:41,640
Speaker 1: he has plenty of options to spread the ball around too.

637
00:29:41,640 –> 00:29:43,160
Speaker 1: So that’s why it’s so important he makes sure you

638
00:29:43,200 –> 00:29:46,480
Speaker 1: stop Etn early and you’re covering his first read because,

639
00:29:46,600 –> 00:29:49,480
Speaker 1: like Shamas saying, that quick passing game can be effective,

640
00:29:49,880 –> 00:29:51,480
Speaker 1: but if you’re able to get your hands up or

641
00:29:51,520 –> 00:29:53,920
Speaker 1: if you can cover that first read for a split second,

642
00:29:54,000 –> 00:29:56,000
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, it forces him to look elsewhere.

643
00:29:56,040 –> 00:29:58,800
Speaker 1: And he struggled in those situations. So he has lots

644
00:29:58,800 –> 00:30:01,240
Speaker 1: of playmakers on this offense. But if you can disrupt

645
00:30:01,280 –> 00:30:03,720
Speaker 1: the timing of this offense really goes a long way

646
00:30:03,720 –> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 1: and slow them down and you can see jug Peterson

647
00:30:05,760 –> 00:30:08,000
Speaker 1: using Evan Ingram much like the Chiefs one of you

648
00:30:08,320 –> 00:30:11,600
Speaker 1: use Kelsey, but Ingram’s kind of like when they need something,

649
00:30:11,640 –> 00:30:15,360
Speaker 1: they go to the neutron of the Adam there. Um

650
00:30:15,400 –> 00:30:17,120
Speaker 1: your final thoughts on the Jaggs, Well, every time I

651
00:30:17,160 –> 00:30:19,520
Speaker 1: think about et and I think of Antiqui Barber the

652
00:30:19,560 –> 00:30:22,360
Speaker 1: way the Giants used him. I mean in the passing game,

653
00:30:22,400 –> 00:30:25,000
Speaker 1: in the round the game, it was just a phenomenal

654
00:30:25,040 –> 00:30:28,280
Speaker 1: offense set up around is one player. But but against

655
00:30:28,320 –> 00:30:31,120
Speaker 1: the Jags offense, I think are I mean against the

656
00:30:31,440 –> 00:30:33,640
Speaker 1: Jags defense, I think offense needs to do exactly what

657
00:30:33,680 –> 00:30:36,080
Speaker 1: we did when we played them the last time. It’s

658
00:30:36,120 –> 00:30:39,160
Speaker 1: just it’s a possession game. We control the ball, We

659
00:30:39,160 –> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: we tempo and run the players we want to run,

660
00:30:41,560 –> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: using our shifts and motions to get those players out

661
00:30:44,400 –> 00:30:47,320
Speaker 1: of position. Like we said, they’re a young, young, aggressive team.

662
00:30:47,520 –> 00:30:50,760
Speaker 1: But the way, especially here in our house, we use

663
00:30:51,480 –> 00:30:55,200
Speaker 1: communication or lack of communication to our benefit. Put them

664
00:30:55,200 –> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 1: into you know, our receivers can be in stack alignments. UM,

665
00:30:57,840 –> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 1: we use different personnel packages, have unfamiliar voices talking on

666
00:31:02,240 –> 00:31:05,920
Speaker 1: the defense, UM and seeing they really do believe and

667
00:31:05,960 –> 00:31:08,800
Speaker 1: have they really studied and learned their technique because you

668
00:31:08,840 –> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 1: can be overly aggressive, but sometimes you get two guys

669
00:31:11,800 –> 00:31:14,520
Speaker 1: in the wrong gap, and when we busted for around

670
00:31:14,520 –> 00:31:17,680
Speaker 1: the outside, it’s nobody there to make that tackle. Or

671
00:31:17,720 –> 00:31:19,440
Speaker 1: on the back end. What we saw many times in

672
00:31:19,480 –> 00:31:22,440
Speaker 1: that first game is two or three defenders taking the

673
00:31:22,480 –> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: wrong guy and that left uh, Tony and other receivers

674
00:31:26,600 –> 00:31:31,360
Speaker 1: almost just unguarded at times by themselves for touchdowns, and

675
00:31:31,480 –> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 1: especially in some of those zoom motions, I think that

676
00:31:34,120 –> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: was to play the Tony you know, started hopping down

677
00:31:36,040 –> 00:31:40,240
Speaker 1: the sideline and something that was right. That was his

678
00:31:39,840 –> 00:31:43,160
Speaker 1: his come out party, right, And it was because defensively

679
00:31:43,440 –> 00:31:46,520
Speaker 1: they lost track of when that guy goes in motion,

680
00:31:46,640 –> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 1: who really is responsible for him Safety’s rocking and rolling

681
00:31:50,160 –> 00:31:52,280
Speaker 1: is at a corner, coming up playing a flat A

682
00:31:52,320 –> 00:31:54,320
Speaker 1: lot of times that shifts in motion. It gets you

683
00:31:54,360 –> 00:31:57,360
Speaker 1: in some weird positions defensively, and if you ain’t sure,

684
00:31:58,000 –> 00:32:01,120
Speaker 1: a team like ours can really exploit that. And as

685
00:32:01,160 –> 00:32:04,200
Speaker 1: we close, speaking of rocking and rolling, the advantage is

686
00:32:04,240 –> 00:32:06,560
Speaker 1: getting to play this game at GHA field at a

687
00:32:07,480 –> 00:32:10,160
Speaker 1: lot of you’re listening to this podcast, who will be

688
00:32:10,320 –> 00:32:13,640
Speaker 1: there on Saturday afternoon? It is time to bring the

689
00:32:13,680 –> 00:32:17,120
Speaker 1: ascetline torch and open it up and bring a big

690
00:32:17,120 –> 00:32:20,600
Speaker 1: time flame to this game because it’s probably the biggest

691
00:32:20,600 –> 00:32:23,640
Speaker 1: asset the Chiefs have. And on this note, if Patrick

692
00:32:23,720 –> 00:32:26,760
Speaker 1: Mahomes wins this game, he has owned the Divisional playoff round.

693
00:32:26,960 –> 00:32:29,920
Speaker 1: No quarterback has been more successful in divisional playoff rounds

694
00:32:29,920 –> 00:32:33,720
Speaker 1: and Patrick Mahomes nine tds, no interceptions, quarterback rating of

695
00:32:33,760 –> 00:32:38,160
Speaker 1: one fourteen. He will join Ken Stabler in NFL history

696
00:32:38,600 –> 00:32:42,240
Speaker 1: with five straight wins and divisional playoff round without a

697
00:32:42,280 –> 00:32:46,320
Speaker 1: loss in his first five games. It’s time, it’s the playoffs,

698
00:32:46,480 –> 00:32:49,760
Speaker 1: It’s the Jags, It’s the Divisional Playoff round. Bring it
