‘That Much Closer’ – Super Bowl LIX Part 3 | Defending The Kingdom

1
00:00:00,480 –> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: After a fifty nine year wait by the NFL and

2
00:00:05,000 –> 00:00:08,479
Speaker 1: an eleven month plus wait by the Kansas City Chiefs,

3
00:00:09,200 –> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: we are that much closer to making history. Is Super

4
00:00:12,680 –> 00:00:15,920
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty nine from here in New Orleans looms late

5
00:00:15,960 –> 00:00:20,160
Speaker 1: Sunday afternoon. And of course this wind blown addition of

6
00:00:20,239 –> 00:00:22,919
Speaker 1: defending the Kingdom is brought to you by the awesome

7
00:00:22,960 –> 00:00:26,680
Speaker 1: people at Ticketmaster. And yes they have come through for

8
00:00:26,720 –> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 1: a lot of fans who we have seen here in

9
00:00:29,440 –> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 1: New Orleans as we’ve been here all week.

10
00:00:32,360 –> 00:00:35,000
Speaker 2: Been somem jp Run at the thirty first time.

11
00:00:35,680 –> 00:00:39,720
Speaker 3: I love you, samajp Run. It’s been the windyest day

12
00:00:39,800 –> 00:00:40,200
Speaker 3: so far.

13
00:00:41,640 –> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 1: But here where the Gulf of Mexico comes into the

14
00:00:44,520 –> 00:00:48,680
Speaker 1: Mississippi River and anyway, here we are, here we are.

15
00:00:49,240 –> 00:00:51,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it wasn’t wendy until just now. It was like

16
00:00:51,800 –> 00:00:54,840
Speaker 2: Christine and perfect and clear and just like last time

17
00:00:54,880 –> 00:00:57,040
Speaker 2: when I was talking about how it was like really quiet.

18
00:00:57,240 –> 00:00:59,200
Speaker 2: As soon as we started recording, we heard like police

19
00:00:59,240 –> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 2: sirens and helicopters flying over. Today’s the wind. I don’t

20
00:01:02,480 –> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 2: think it’s supposed to rain, but it kind of feels

21
00:01:04,600 –> 00:01:05,000
Speaker 2: like it might.

22
00:01:05,640 –> 00:01:08,280
Speaker 1: Well, it’s not the training camp rain that we had

23
00:01:08,400 –> 00:01:10,319
Speaker 1: or even we had rain. I think in Miami, didn’t

24
00:01:10,319 –> 00:01:13,279
Speaker 1: we at one point or there was some anyway, so.

25
00:01:13,440 –> 00:01:15,840
Speaker 2: In Vegas that we had like a downpour, remember that

26
00:01:16,200 –> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 2: that was straight I got desert rain.

27
00:01:19,040 –> 00:01:21,199
Speaker 1: So we just have the wind here in the big

28
00:01:21,200 –> 00:01:24,559
Speaker 1: easy of the Crescent City of New Orleans. But again,

29
00:01:24,600 –> 00:01:27,640
Speaker 1: we’re that much closer. Just think about it. We said

30
00:01:27,720 –> 00:01:32,560
Speaker 1: that this journey started just minutes after winning super Bowl

31
00:01:32,560 –> 00:01:35,400
Speaker 1: fifty eight. There was discussion about being the first team

32
00:01:35,440 –> 00:01:39,160
Speaker 1: to ever three pete And it’s been a year and

33
00:01:39,480 –> 00:01:42,840
Speaker 1: being here in this close is a bit surreal to me.

34
00:01:43,319 –> 00:01:45,640
Speaker 2: It’s we’ve talked about it, you know, all year long.

35
00:01:45,680 –> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 2: But what’s cool about it is every single season, of course,

36
00:01:48,760 –> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: the goal is the super Bowl, and we’re like, oh,

37
00:01:50,480 –> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 2: we have to do this and that to get to

38
00:01:51,720 –> 00:01:54,320
Speaker 2: the super Bowl. But this season is so unique because

39
00:01:54,320 –> 00:01:56,520
Speaker 2: of the history on the line. And yeah, we talked

40
00:01:56,520 –> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 2: about this a calendar year ago about hey, no team’s

41
00:02:00,040 –> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 2: ever won three super Bowl titles in a row. We

42
00:02:02,000 –> 00:02:04,000
Speaker 2: have a chance to do it. And I mean, like

43
00:02:04,000 –> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 2: we’ve talked about our previous episodes, there were so many

44
00:02:06,520 –> 00:02:08,800
Speaker 2: steps along the way to get there. I mean you

45
00:02:08,800 –> 00:02:10,880
Speaker 2: had to go through OTA’s you had to have the

46
00:02:10,919 –> 00:02:14,760
Speaker 2: shortest offseason in NFL history. Again, you had to play

47
00:02:14,760 –> 00:02:17,280
Speaker 2: a first play schedule and go fifteen to two and

48
00:02:17,440 –> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 2: make the playoffs when the division again get that one seed.

49
00:02:21,080 –> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 2: It beat a really good Texans team, beat a really

50
00:02:23,000 –> 00:02:26,000
Speaker 2: good Buffalo Bills team, and yeah, now we’re here in

51
00:02:26,040 –> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 2: New Orleans, and honestly, it’s still kind of hard to believe.

52
00:02:28,919 –> 00:02:31,680
Speaker 1: And every day but Tuesday, every day, but three games

53
00:02:31,720 –> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 1: in eleven days, uh huh, and Buffalo kept breathing down

54
00:02:34,360 –> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: our neck. There was no wiggle room of like, well,

55
00:02:36,840 –> 00:02:39,640
Speaker 1: we can lose this game and be okay. There was

56
00:02:39,680 –> 00:02:40,239
Speaker 1: for a while.

57
00:02:41,520 –> 00:02:43,200
Speaker 2: Once we lost that game in Buffalo, there was no

58
00:02:43,320 –> 00:02:43,959
Speaker 2: legal room.

59
00:02:43,840 –> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 1: And there was no wig room because they would have

60
00:02:45,360 –> 00:02:48,280
Speaker 1: had the tiebreaker. And so that dynamic that you just

61
00:02:48,280 –> 00:02:51,959
Speaker 1: described so very well has been just lying on everybody’s

62
00:02:51,960 –> 00:02:53,680
Speaker 1: shoulders this whole time.

63
00:02:54,000 –> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: And how often do you have a goal like this

64
00:02:56,080 –> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: that everyone is collectively working toward and then you get

65
00:02:59,120 –> 00:03:00,919
Speaker 2: there and we’re on the door step of it. I mean,

66
00:03:01,280 –> 00:03:03,920
Speaker 2: the game plan is in. Coach Rey talked earlier today

67
00:03:03,960 –> 00:03:06,280
Speaker 2: about how this week of practices is all about kind

68
00:03:06,320 –> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: of just refining and polishing and finer tuning everything. But

69
00:03:10,120 –> 00:03:12,440
Speaker 2: I mean it’s here. I mean, this is an opportunity

70
00:03:12,520 –> 00:03:14,520
Speaker 2: to make history. I think it’s so cool that we

71
00:03:14,520 –> 00:03:16,720
Speaker 2: are going to be in the building, in the super

72
00:03:16,760 –> 00:03:20,239
Speaker 2: Dome to see the Chiefs maybe win a third straight

73
00:03:20,280 –> 00:03:22,920
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, something that’s never happened before, and for millions

74
00:03:22,919 –> 00:03:25,359
Speaker 2: around the world to witness this as something else. So

75
00:03:25,400 –> 00:03:26,880
Speaker 2: we’re going to talk about it, but I kind of

76
00:03:26,880 –> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 2: just want to fast forward to game day at this point.

77
00:03:29,240 –> 00:03:32,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, and in the city of New Orleans, which for years,

78
00:03:32,160 –> 00:03:34,440
Speaker 1: at one time it was the world’s biggest port, or

79
00:03:34,680 –> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: nearly one of the top three or four ports in

80
00:03:38,000 –> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: the world. It’s still prominent obviously where it’s located geographically,

81
00:03:43,720 –> 00:03:46,640
Speaker 1: but it’s a nice launch pad for our trip around

82
00:03:46,640 –> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: the world here.

83
00:03:47,360 –> 00:03:49,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I’ve got five today. Of course we have

84
00:03:50,000 –> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 2: like way more than that, but for the sake of

85
00:03:51,800 –> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: time in everyone’s ears, because of this wind, I’ll make.

86
00:03:54,400 –> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: A quick for the fifth Super Bowl, you know.

87
00:03:56,600 –> 00:04:00,040
Speaker 2: Trying to manifest it here. So heard from Ted and

88
00:04:00,120 –> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 2: Lois and Honolulu. Ted was born in Oletha, but moved

89
00:04:03,640 –> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 2: to Honolulu when he was ten years old, so representing

90
00:04:06,240 –> 00:04:07,640
Speaker 2: the Kingdom out in Hawaii.

91
00:04:07,240 –> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: And the place to move to if you’re gonna move.

92
00:04:09,120 –> 00:04:11,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, make it that to Honolulu. We’ll do a DTK

93
00:04:11,240 –> 00:04:15,240
Speaker 2: on location. Dennis is in Herndon, Virginia. He was eight

94
00:04:15,360 –> 00:04:17,760
Speaker 2: years old when a Super Bowl four happened. He remembers

95
00:04:17,800 –> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 2: it well. He also met Buck Buchanan that year out

96
00:04:20,680 –> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: in Overland Park and we’ll never forget it.

97
00:04:22,440 –> 00:04:25,600
Speaker 1: So we lost him way too soon and Georgia, George

98
00:04:25,640 –> 00:04:28,839
Speaker 1: is so gracious and to remember his memory. But man,

99
00:04:28,880 –> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 1: I wish she would see this and wish he’d meet

100
00:04:31,320 –> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 1: Chris Jones, because Chris is the reinvention of Buck Buchannon.

101
00:04:34,839 –> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: Buck Buchannan would love Chris Jones.

102
00:04:37,600 –> 00:04:38,160
Speaker 3: Chop it up.

103
00:04:38,320 –> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 2: Yeah, anyway, Shout out to you, Dennis, Shout out to Chad.

104
00:04:41,920 –> 00:04:44,240
Speaker 2: He wrote in that his wife Chrissy will be celebrating

105
00:04:44,240 –> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: her forty fifth birthday on Super Sunday. So Chrissy, happy

106
00:04:48,120 –> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: birthday to you. Hopefully it’s a birthday you’ll never forget

107
00:04:50,400 –> 00:04:52,760
Speaker 2: because you’re watching the Chiefs hopefully win the Super Bowl.

108
00:04:52,760 –> 00:04:55,599
Speaker 2: So shout out to Christy and Chad. Heard from Ali

109
00:04:55,680 –> 00:04:58,919
Speaker 2: in Nashville, but she’s originally from Mississippi. Her dad was

110
00:04:58,960 –> 00:05:01,640
Speaker 2: the high school coach at the high school where Willie

111
00:05:01,680 –> 00:05:03,600
Speaker 2: Gay and AJ Brown played football?

112
00:05:04,000 –> 00:05:06,000
Speaker 3: Where Starkville? Then, right would it have been?

113
00:05:06,320 –> 00:05:07,880
Speaker 2: She didn’t say, but if if you know, that’s what

114
00:05:07,960 –> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: it is.

115
00:05:08,200 –> 00:05:10,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think of Willigay junior played high school Starkville High.

Speaker 2: I cannot.

122

Speaker 3: It’s who do we play next week?

123
00:05:21,120 –> 00:05:24,760
Speaker 2: Exactly? So she never really had a football team growing up,

124
00:05:24,880 –> 00:05:27,320
Speaker 2: but just one day in twenty seventeen turned on the

00:05:27,320 –> 00:05:29,919
Speaker 2: TV and it was Patrick Mahomes’s first career start, and

126
00:05:30,000 –> 00:05:31,839
Speaker 2: she was like, I like this guy. She’s been a

127
00:05:31,839 –> 00:05:34,080
Speaker 2: diehard cheese fan ever since. So shout out to you ally.

133
00:05:47,880 –> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 1: Where is it home of the Blue Streaks South southeast Kansas, Okay,

134
00:05:53,920 –> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 1: northwest of Pittsburgh and east of what Chita, let’s put

135
00:05:57,320 –> 00:05:57,680
Speaker 1: it that way.

136
00:05:57,720 –> 00:05:59,600
Speaker 3: But they know the Blue.

137
00:05:59,320 –> 00:06:01,279
Speaker 2: Streaks What’s what’s a blue streak?

138
00:06:02,040 –> 00:06:04,520
Speaker 1: Not sure, but if you remember so Saint Thomas Aquinas

139
00:06:04,560 –> 00:06:07,679
Speaker 1: now in Kansas City, right the Saints. At one time

140
00:06:07,880 –> 00:06:10,680
Speaker 1: that high school for the most part was in Shawnee

141
00:06:10,760 –> 00:06:15,600
Speaker 1: right on Johnson Drive and there’s still a parish there,

142
00:06:15,600 –> 00:06:18,360
Speaker 1: and that was called Shawnee Saint Joseph High School and

143
00:06:18,400 –> 00:06:21,480
Speaker 1: they were the Blue Streaks. Highland, Kansas was the Blue

144
00:06:21,520 –> 00:06:24,200
Speaker 1: Streaks until they merged with Donovant or with Midway Denton

145
00:06:24,240 –> 00:06:25,719
Speaker 1: to mcdonovan West Mustangs.

146
00:06:26,000 –> 00:06:28,840
Speaker 3: What is a blue streak? It’s like I think it’s

147
00:06:28,880 –> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 3: like a lightning bolt or something.

148
00:06:30,360 –> 00:06:32,719
Speaker 2: So I’m okay with it because it’s pretty unique. Yeah,

149
00:06:32,720 –> 00:06:34,279
Speaker 2: I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a blue streak,

150
00:06:34,440 –> 00:06:37,360
Speaker 2: but need some more clarification on what it is. But anyway,

151
00:06:37,480 –> 00:06:41,279
Speaker 2: shout out from me Yooshe. We’ll go to Neotash Niodashe, Yodashe.

152
00:06:41,400 –> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 2: I learned something today that’s great.

153
00:06:44,080 –> 00:06:47,599
Speaker 1: Yeah, our geographic lessons to even understand where the Philippines

154
00:06:47,640 –> 00:06:50,560
Speaker 1: and what hemisphere is has always been good for me.

155
00:06:51,320 –> 00:06:54,279
Speaker 1: So defending the kingdom, we try to be really very

156
00:06:54,279 –> 00:06:58,880
Speaker 1: cultural and educational our education on this one, which is

157
00:06:58,920 –> 00:07:02,799
Speaker 1: that much closer in waiting almost twelve months for this moment,

158
00:07:03,320 –> 00:07:06,200
Speaker 1: and again the NFL has waited for fifty nine years.

159
00:07:05,960 –> 00:07:07,239
Speaker 3: Of Super Bowls for this moment.

160
00:07:07,960 –> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 1: We’re going to focus on the Chiefs offense against the

161
00:07:11,040 –> 00:07:15,000
Speaker 1: Philadelphia defense. Just the opposite of what we discussed when

162
00:07:15,040 –> 00:07:18,520
Speaker 1: we taped here on Tuesday, but it is there’s some

163
00:07:18,520 –> 00:07:22,080
Speaker 1: matchups here that are intriguing. This Philadelphia defense. We can

164
00:07:22,160 –> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 1: jump into them. They’re on the honor roll. When you

165
00:07:24,360 –> 00:07:27,080
Speaker 1: look at where they ranked, they’re in top four in

166
00:07:27,160 –> 00:07:29,720
Speaker 1: most every category. Best in the league in total defense,

167
00:07:29,760 –> 00:07:33,280
Speaker 1: scoring defense only two interneightyight offensive points scored, best in

168
00:07:33,360 –> 00:07:36,120
Speaker 1: passing defense, best in the league only allowing thirty five

169
00:07:36,240 –> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 1: twenty plus completions. I think they’ve drafted very well to

170
00:07:40,520 –> 00:07:43,200
Speaker 1: their defense when you look at the rookies, getting Cooper

171
00:07:43,240 –> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 1: dejen who a lot of Kingdom defenders know because he’s

172
00:07:46,280 –> 00:07:50,080
Speaker 1: from Ida Grove, Iowa, a little town in South Central

173
00:07:50,880 –> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 1: I’m sorry, in West Central Iowa. And his high school,

174
00:07:53,960 –> 00:07:57,400
Speaker 1: by the way, isab Cig.

175
00:07:57,040 –> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: High schoolab Cig Obzig, Okay, Iowa.

176
00:08:04,880 –> 00:08:07,280
Speaker 1: I love you, but your high schools what they do

177
00:08:07,360 –> 00:08:09,520
Speaker 1: is they combine. It would be like Smith Center going

178
00:08:09,520 –> 00:08:12,920
Speaker 1: with Phillipsburg Kensington and Lebanon and it’d be SCP s

179
00:08:13,200 –> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 1: kl okay, and it’s like it’s a lot Obi. It

180
00:08:16,920 –> 00:08:22,360
Speaker 1: doesn’t roll off the tobas c anyway, Coprajen Cooper, Dejen, Sorry,

181
00:08:22,920 –> 00:08:25,560
Speaker 1: Quiny and Mitchell. They were able to get Jalen Carter

182
00:08:25,680 –> 00:08:27,760
Speaker 1: two years ago, and you and I both when we

183
00:08:27,760 –> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 1: were doing the draft are like, WHOA, Okay, they get

184
00:08:30,520 –> 00:08:33,840
Speaker 1: the Georgia All Stars on this team, Nolan Smith. But

185
00:08:33,880 –> 00:08:36,720
Speaker 1: they’ve drafted very well and built a very good defense front.

186
00:08:36,559 –> 00:08:40,960
Speaker 2: To back Kobe Dean on this team, getting Zach Bond,

187
00:08:41,160 –> 00:08:43,600
Speaker 2: I mean, he’s had an incredible season, kind of out

188
00:08:43,600 –> 00:08:46,160
Speaker 2: of nowhere. What’s interesting is we just saw these guys

189
00:08:46,160 –> 00:08:49,080
Speaker 2: two years ago, but the defense is still really good,

190
00:08:49,080 –> 00:08:51,560
Speaker 2: but looks totally different because they’ve had such a youth movement.

191
00:08:51,800 –> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 2: I mean, last time we saw these guys in the

192
00:08:53,240 –> 00:08:55,720
Speaker 2: Super Bowl, it was all about Fletcher Cox and Brandon

193
00:08:55,760 –> 00:08:59,960
Speaker 2: Graham and Graham still on the team obviously, but James Bradberry,

194
00:09:00,200 –> 00:09:02,320
Speaker 2: a lot of older players, and they’ve really replenished their

195
00:09:02,400 –> 00:09:04,559
Speaker 2: roster with a bunch of young players and haven’t skipped

196
00:09:04,600 –> 00:09:06,480
Speaker 2: a beat. You mentioned that they’re top five and a

197
00:09:06,480 –> 00:09:09,280
Speaker 2: bunch of categories. They allowed the fewest offensive points of

198
00:09:09,280 –> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 2: any team in the league this season, number one total

199
00:09:11,559 –> 00:09:13,640
Speaker 2: defense and some in terms of yards allowed per game,

200
00:09:14,000 –> 00:09:16,599
Speaker 2: number one pass defense and fewest plays of twenty or

201
00:09:16,600 –> 00:09:19,280
Speaker 2: more yards allowed in the NFL. They’ve been really good

202
00:09:19,320 –> 00:09:22,120
Speaker 2: and they have playmakers everywhere. Kind of got me thinking

203
00:09:22,760 –> 00:09:25,000
Speaker 2: because we move on from these Super Bowls and I

204
00:09:25,080 –> 00:09:27,800
Speaker 2: kind of forget where teams ranked that we played. I

205
00:09:27,840 –> 00:09:31,680
Speaker 2: looked up where our previous opponents ranked when we faced

206
00:09:31,720 –> 00:09:33,160
Speaker 2: them in the Super Bowl and it’s kind of interesting.

207
00:09:33,440 –> 00:09:35,960
Speaker 2: So super Bowl fifty four, the forty nine Ers had

208
00:09:35,960 –> 00:09:39,679
Speaker 2: the number two total defense, number nine scoring defense. Super

209
00:09:39,679 –> 00:09:42,800
Speaker 2: Bowl fifty seven, these Eagles had the number two total defense,

210
00:09:43,160 –> 00:09:46,000
Speaker 2: number eight scoring defense, and then last year the Niners

211
00:09:46,040 –> 00:09:49,040
Speaker 2: had the number eight total defense but number three scoring defense.

212
00:09:49,080 –> 00:09:51,400
Speaker 2: So the Eagles are really good defensively. But it’s no

213
00:09:51,920 –> 00:09:54,319
Speaker 2: new task for the Chiefs. We’re usually facing obviously a

214
00:09:54,440 –> 00:09:56,559
Speaker 2: very good team in the Super Bowl, and traditionally we

215
00:09:56,640 –> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 2: faced some very very good defenses. And Mahomes in his career,

216
00:10:00,000 –> 00:10:01,800
Speaker 2: I look this up after we beat the Chargers earlier

217
00:10:01,840 –> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 2: this year, because they had the number one scoring defense

218
00:10:03,720 –> 00:10:05,560
Speaker 2: in the league at the time. He’s eight and two

219
00:10:05,640 –> 00:10:08,400
Speaker 2: against the league’s number one scoring defense and twenty one

220
00:10:08,400 –> 00:10:11,559
Speaker 2: and three against top five scoring defenses. So let’s just

221
00:10:11,600 –> 00:10:12,559
Speaker 2: do that again, Patrick.

222
00:10:12,760 –> 00:10:15,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, remember last year San Francisco had the most sacks

223
00:10:15,080 –> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: since the eighty five Bears.

224
00:10:16,440 –> 00:10:17,760
Speaker 2: And then the Eagles the year before that.

225
00:10:17,920 –> 00:10:21,320
Speaker 1: We’re the team with ummost sacks. This team doesn’t get

226
00:10:21,360 –> 00:10:24,960
Speaker 1: as many sacks, but really front to back, side to side,

227
00:10:25,240 –> 00:10:27,160
Speaker 1: this is a better defense than the Chiefs faced in

228
00:10:27,200 –> 00:10:29,800
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty seven. The other piece of this is

229
00:10:29,800 –> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 1: the Vic Fangio element to a story to this game. Vic,

230
00:10:33,960 –> 00:10:37,280
Speaker 1: of course a long time defensive coordinator. He was Matt

231
00:10:37,360 –> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 1: Maggy’s defensive coordinator in Chicago for two years and Matt

232
00:10:41,280 –> 00:10:44,280
Speaker 1: speaks very highly of him. Matt talked to me today

233
00:10:44,280 –> 00:10:47,000
Speaker 1: about how he would prepare and be very good in

234
00:10:47,000 –> 00:10:48,520
Speaker 1: the way he approached it. And then he was head

235
00:10:48,559 –> 00:10:51,320
Speaker 1: coach of the Denver Broncos. Right, So we’ve seen Vic

236
00:10:51,400 –> 00:10:54,040
Speaker 1: in a variety of ways. Coach has faced.

237
00:10:53,880 –> 00:10:54,400
Speaker 3: Him a lot.

238
00:10:54,800 –> 00:10:57,439
Speaker 1: He’s approached generally not sure, and he’s kind of done

239
00:10:57,440 –> 00:11:00,120
Speaker 1: that with this team this year. But in the playoffs’ve

240
00:11:00,160 –> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 1: kind of ratcheted up some. But they will test your

241
00:11:03,400 –> 00:11:07,880
Speaker 1: patience and they will test your resolve. They will also

242
00:11:08,000 –> 00:11:11,880
Speaker 1: see if you’re just gonna take little chunks and then

243
00:11:12,559 –> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 1: do their bit to take it away. And that’s what

244
00:11:14,840 –> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 1: they’ve been able to do. They’re plus eleven in the

245
00:11:16,559 –> 00:11:19,280
Speaker 1: regular season and can take aways ten over zero in

246
00:11:19,320 –> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: the playoffs, although a couple of those are special teams.

247
00:11:22,040 –> 00:11:24,719
Speaker 1: So this team loves to pop it out. They love

248
00:11:24,760 –> 00:11:27,320
Speaker 1: to poke the ball out, and coach told me today

249
00:11:27,840 –> 00:11:30,240
Speaker 1: that this is the team that pokes it out even

250
00:11:30,280 –> 00:11:33,880
Speaker 1: with their upfront defenders usually the Panutoman types or dbs

251
00:11:33,960 –> 00:11:36,520
Speaker 1: or linebackers. When you look at these guys of Carter,

252
00:11:36,640 –> 00:11:39,560
Speaker 1: Sweat Huff and others, they’ll punch it out right at

253
00:11:39,600 –> 00:11:41,640
Speaker 1: the line of scrimmage. They’re looking to punch, not just

254
00:11:41,720 –> 00:11:46,120
Speaker 1: play gap control. So that’s the theme of this Philadelphia

255
00:11:46,120 –> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: defense and centering around the overall approach of Vic Fangio.

256
00:11:50,200 –> 00:11:53,000
Speaker 1: But it does bring we face fit before. This is

257
00:11:53,080 –> 00:11:54,360
Speaker 1: not a brand new guy.

258
00:11:54,440 –> 00:11:56,920
Speaker 2: And he was also consulted by the Eagles before the

259
00:11:57,000 –> 00:11:58,559
Speaker 2: last time I faced him in the Super Bowl, right,

260
00:11:58,600 –> 00:12:01,160
Speaker 2: he came on board and like a consultant role, he

261
00:12:01,320 –> 00:12:03,680
Speaker 2: beat the Chiefs guy. Yeah, exactly, because he had seen

262
00:12:03,880 –> 00:12:06,120
Speaker 2: the Chiefs and Mahomes so much, and he consulted the

263
00:12:06,160 –> 00:12:08,760
Speaker 2: Eagles going into Super Bowl fifty seven. Kind of funny

264
00:12:08,760 –> 00:12:10,760
Speaker 2: we’re facing him now again when he’s actually the defensive

265
00:12:10,760 –> 00:12:14,640
Speaker 2: coordinator for the Eagles. But yeah, I mean what’s interesting

266
00:12:14,960 –> 00:12:16,840
Speaker 2: is if you look at the first iteration of the

267
00:12:16,880 –> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: Chiefs offense with Mahomes, it was all about the big

268
00:12:19,320 –> 00:12:22,880
Speaker 2: play in the home run shot and the Buccaneers and

269
00:12:22,880 –> 00:12:25,120
Speaker 2: Super Bowl fifty five took that away and the Chiefs

270
00:12:25,120 –> 00:12:27,800
Speaker 2: struggled to adjust, And that’s what twenty twenty one was

271
00:12:27,840 –> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 2: all about, was learning how to play football kind of

272
00:12:29,720 –> 00:12:32,080
Speaker 2: in a different way. Well, the Chiefs have kind of

273
00:12:32,120 –> 00:12:35,240
Speaker 2: mastered that now, of this kind of chipping away down

274
00:12:35,240 –> 00:12:37,200
Speaker 2: the field taking what the defense gives them. I mean,

275
00:12:37,280 –> 00:12:39,959
Speaker 2: Mahomes has completely reinvented himself in that way and become

276
00:12:40,000 –> 00:12:42,320
Speaker 2: the best quarterback in the league. And not only the

277
00:12:42,360 –> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 2: explosive pass game when it’s there, but also kind of

278
00:12:45,040 –> 00:12:47,640
Speaker 2: the short game. And I think in a lot of ways,

279
00:12:47,679 –> 00:12:52,079
Speaker 2: the Chiefs are built to play against the defense like this. Now,

280
00:12:52,280 –> 00:12:54,600
Speaker 2: the Philadelphia defense is still really good. The Chiefs have

281
00:12:54,640 –> 00:12:57,280
Speaker 2: to go out there and do it. But Mahomes is patient.

282
00:12:57,280 –> 00:12:59,280
Speaker 2: He’s not only looking for the deep shot now, and

283
00:12:59,679 –> 00:13:01,920
Speaker 2: I think think this collection of receivers that we have

284
00:13:02,080 –> 00:13:04,400
Speaker 2: might be the most comprehensive that we’ve had in a

285
00:13:04,440 –> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 2: long time, particularly with Hollywood now back, because you have

286
00:13:07,480 –> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 2: players like DeAndre Hopkins, Hollywood Brown, xavier’ Worthy really coming

287
00:13:10,840 –> 00:13:12,840
Speaker 2: into his own now over the second half of the season,

288
00:13:13,040 –> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 2: Juju Smith Schuster coming up with some big catches against

289
00:13:15,400 –> 00:13:17,600
Speaker 2: the Bills a couple weeks ago. Don’t forget about Justin

290
00:13:17,600 –> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 2: Watson as well. So I think with the variety of

291
00:13:21,480 –> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 2: weapons in the passing game and how they all are

292
00:13:24,280 –> 00:13:26,079
Speaker 2: able to take advantage of kind of what the defense

293
00:13:26,120 –> 00:13:28,719
Speaker 2: gives them, and of course Travis Kelcey Knicks is in

294
00:13:28,760 –> 00:13:31,000
Speaker 2: there too, you can’t just focus on one guy and

295
00:13:31,040 –> 00:13:33,520
Speaker 2: there will be openings. Just a matter of are you

296
00:13:33,559 –> 00:13:36,240
Speaker 2: willing to take the four yard gain when you really

297
00:13:36,280 –> 00:13:39,120
Speaker 2: want the fifty yard game? And Mahomes has gotten so

298
00:13:39,160 –> 00:13:42,200
Speaker 2: good at that about kind of managing it, saying, hey,

299
00:13:42,240 –> 00:13:43,960
Speaker 2: I’m going to take this right here and if we

300
00:13:43,960 –> 00:13:45,400
Speaker 2: have a shot later on, we’ll take it.

301
00:13:45,440 –> 00:13:45,680
Speaker 3: Then.

302
00:13:46,320 –> 00:13:48,400
Speaker 2: That’s the thing with this Fangio defense. You have to

303
00:13:48,400 –> 00:13:50,679
Speaker 2: be patient and you can’t turn the ball over. That’s

304
00:13:50,720 –> 00:13:53,400
Speaker 2: the thing you mentioned it. I mean, this Philadelphia defense

305
00:13:53,400 –> 00:13:55,560
Speaker 2: has one hundred and four takeaway points this year, third

306
00:13:55,600 –> 00:13:58,320
Speaker 2: most of any team in the NFL. Twenty seven drives

307
00:13:58,320 –> 00:14:00,960
Speaker 2: for them this season began an opponent tart to second

308
00:14:00,960 –> 00:14:02,839
Speaker 2: most in the league, behind only Buffalo, And we talked

309
00:14:02,880 –> 00:14:05,240
Speaker 2: about that a couple weeks ago going into the Bills game.

310
00:14:05,800 –> 00:14:08,480
Speaker 2: The Philadelphia offense loves us to play ball control. They

311
00:14:08,520 –> 00:14:10,559
Speaker 2: love to run the ball of Sakuon Barkley. You cannot

312
00:14:10,600 –> 00:14:13,280
Speaker 2: give them extra opportunities. Can’t turn the ball over at

313
00:14:13,320 –> 00:14:15,679
Speaker 2: your own forty and then they have Saquon and they’re

314
00:14:15,720 –> 00:14:17,480
Speaker 2: gonna run five minutes off the clock and go score

315
00:14:17,520 –> 00:14:20,040
Speaker 2: a touchdown. And that’s kind of what doomed all these

316
00:14:20,040 –> 00:14:22,080
Speaker 2: teams they’ve played in the playoffs. You mentioned their plus

317
00:14:22,160 –> 00:14:25,360
Speaker 2: ten haven’t turned it over themselves. Well, the Packers had

318
00:14:25,400 –> 00:14:29,720
Speaker 2: four giveaways, rams two giveaways, and then the Commanders had

319
00:14:29,720 –> 00:14:32,920
Speaker 2: four giveaways. In that Commander’s game alone. The Eagles scored

320
00:14:33,040 –> 00:14:36,360
Speaker 2: twenty eight points off of those four turnovers. So the

321
00:14:36,400 –> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 2: Eagles are already really good. You can’t be giving them

322
00:14:38,560 –> 00:14:42,080
Speaker 2: extra opportunities by turning the ball over. Patients not turning

323
00:14:42,120 –> 00:14:44,760
Speaker 2: the ball over and red zone touchdown efficiency, which the

324
00:14:44,840 –> 00:14:47,080
Speaker 2: Chiefs were four of six against Buffalo. Those are three

325
00:14:47,080 –> 00:14:48,040
Speaker 2: major keys in this one.

326
00:14:48,160 –> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 1: Philly hasn’t trailed yet in the playoffs, and it started

327
00:14:51,720 –> 00:14:54,920
Speaker 1: with Green Bay. They fumbled the opening kickoff. It was

328
00:14:55,160 –> 00:14:57,600
Speaker 1: all two of those this postseason, and they’ve had two

329
00:14:57,680 –> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 1: special team to takeaways like that. But I’m with you again,

330
00:15:01,600 –> 00:15:06,000
Speaker 1: and I’ve quoted this a lot, but before DeAndre Hopkins

331
00:15:06,000 –> 00:15:09,400
Speaker 1: in the trade with Tennessee, Patrick had six touchdowns and

332
00:15:09,440 –> 00:15:13,560
Speaker 1: eight interceptions. They’re uncharacteristic, but just what it was. His

333
00:15:13,680 –> 00:15:16,800
Speaker 1: Chiefs are still winning games. But after de hop arrived,

334
00:15:16,800 –> 00:15:21,720
Speaker 1: it’s twenty two touchdowns over three interceptions. Pat now has

335
00:15:21,840 –> 00:15:25,640
Speaker 1: two hundred and eighty eight passes without an interception thrown Knockwood.

336
00:15:25,680 –> 00:15:28,440
Speaker 1: That’s the best for any quarterback entering a Super Bowl ever,

337
00:15:29,360 –> 00:15:33,720
Speaker 1: no turnovers since Week eleven. I mean, so to your point,

338
00:15:33,760 –> 00:15:36,120
Speaker 1: it’s a good one. And I would say that de

339
00:15:36,280 –> 00:15:39,640
Speaker 1: hop is perfect what Juju Smith schuster, and he’s got

340
00:15:39,640 –> 00:15:42,480
Speaker 1: the ability to get two catches for sixty yards like

341
00:15:42,560 –> 00:15:46,160
Speaker 1: he did in the last game. But he’s also what

342
00:15:46,240 –> 00:15:48,480
Speaker 1: I saw that Jason levant coach has always had this

343
00:15:48,520 –> 00:15:52,440
Speaker 1: guy who’s like the defenceman in hockey, who can come

344
00:15:52,520 –> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 1: up and steal, like fire a shot from.

345
00:15:55,200 –> 00:15:58,080
Speaker 3: Mid ice in the blue line and get a goal.

346
00:16:00,120 –> 00:16:03,640
Speaker 1: And he’s just been a great mover, blocker, shaker, and

347
00:16:03,680 –> 00:16:05,960
Speaker 1: this is all the stuff that leads to first downs.

348
00:16:05,920 –> 00:16:08,240
Speaker 1: He didn’t mention Noah Gray. Noah Gray is a much

349
00:16:08,280 –> 00:16:10,400
Speaker 1: better player, much better player than he was in Super

350
00:16:10,440 –> 00:16:13,360
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty seven. And we saw that when they needed

351
00:16:13,400 –> 00:16:15,680
Speaker 1: the most the two touchdown. I had four touchdowns and

352
00:16:15,680 –> 00:16:18,560
Speaker 1: that span and two against Buffalo. And the running backs

353
00:16:19,080 –> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 1: I think are more of a factor in the passing

354
00:16:21,240 –> 00:16:25,120
Speaker 1: game now by scheme, by Pat’s adjustment and the way

355
00:16:25,160 –> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: he plays, and in their ability because all three running

356
00:16:28,480 –> 00:16:33,080
Speaker 1: backs have shown the propensity to catch what looks like

357
00:16:33,480 –> 00:16:38,600
Speaker 1: needlessly or harmlessly a checkdown throw. But a checkdown throw

358
00:16:38,640 –> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 1: to Sama jp Ran turns into a game clincher against

359
00:16:41,840 –> 00:16:45,000
Speaker 1: Buffalo because he breaks tackles. Same with Kareem Hunt. And

360
00:16:45,040 –> 00:16:47,200
Speaker 1: we know that Pacheco’s worked on this part of his game.

361
00:16:47,520 –> 00:16:50,320
Speaker 1: So you have three running backs, you have two tight ends. Essentially,

362
00:16:50,640 –> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 1: you’ve got all six wide receivers who can do it,

363
00:16:53,880 –> 00:16:56,680
Speaker 1: and you’re putting all that into battle against a guy

364
00:16:56,720 –> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: who’s going to force you to do exactly.

365
00:16:58,800 –> 00:17:00,280
Speaker 3: What we’ve laid out now.

366
00:17:00,280 –> 00:17:02,920
Speaker 1: The one key too, You talk about the turnovers, and

367
00:17:02,960 –> 00:17:05,159
Speaker 1: this is copy and paste from Buffalo and a lot

368
00:17:05,160 –> 00:17:07,359
Speaker 1: of ways, yet so many it’s copy and paste from

369
00:17:07,359 –> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: the Buffalo game. A two yard gain, a twelve yard gain,

370
00:17:11,440 –> 00:17:14,320
Speaker 1: a twenty yard gain, a forty two yard gain, it

371
00:17:14,359 –> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 1: all remains the same. Philadelphia will look to punch the

372
00:17:17,400 –> 00:17:20,360
Speaker 1: ball out, and in many times the most dangerous time

373
00:17:20,520 –> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: is after a gain of twenty yards or more. It’s

374
00:17:22,760 –> 00:17:25,640
Speaker 1: human nature to to human nature to relax or look

375
00:17:25,720 –> 00:17:27,280
Speaker 1: up at the big screen or thinking I’ve got a

376
00:17:27,280 –> 00:17:29,960
Speaker 1: big play, and that’s when the guard goes down, and that’s.

377
00:17:29,800 –> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 3: Where Philly will pop it out. Buffalo did the same

378
00:17:32,119 –> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 3: all year and.

379
00:17:33,080 –> 00:17:35,960
Speaker 1: That’s how they got so many offensive opportunities as you

380
00:17:36,000 –> 00:17:38,199
Speaker 1: alluded to them the plus side of the field. So

381
00:17:38,400 –> 00:17:42,320
Speaker 1: for the Cheese, it’s being disciplined in route running, discipline

382
00:17:42,320 –> 00:17:44,840
Speaker 1: and not only catching the ball because you’re gonna get

383
00:17:44,840 –> 00:17:47,440
Speaker 1: some underneath throws. You’re gonna get hit. Maybe it’s four,

384
00:17:47,520 –> 00:17:50,800
Speaker 1: maybe it’s five. But then to be aware the entire

385
00:17:50,840 –> 00:17:53,160
Speaker 1: game to hang onto the ball with your life, because

386
00:17:53,200 –> 00:17:56,119
Speaker 1: this team, more than any front to back and coach

387
00:17:56,200 –> 00:17:59,240
Speaker 1: was saying, this will look to punch it out, Buffalo’s

388
00:17:59,280 –> 00:18:02,199
Speaker 1: right behind him. Philly will use the defensive line to

389
00:18:02,200 –> 00:18:05,120
Speaker 1: do it. So it’s going to take some incredible discipline

390
00:18:05,160 –> 00:18:08,000
Speaker 1: and strength for this Chiefs team to avoid those turnovers.

391
00:18:08,119 –> 00:18:10,000
Speaker 2: I think it was early in the Commander’s game was

392
00:18:10,040 –> 00:18:12,879
Speaker 2: a Terry McLaurin that had the fumble early and it

393
00:18:12,920 –> 00:18:16,399
Speaker 2: was one of those where he was rarely yeah, and

394
00:18:16,400 –> 00:18:18,959
Speaker 2: he was fighting for extra yards towards the sideline and

395
00:18:19,040 –> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: the Eagles just swarmed him and we’re just punching at it.

396
00:18:21,359 –> 00:18:23,240
Speaker 2: And it’s one of those where I mean, maybe the

397
00:18:23,280 –> 00:18:25,399
Speaker 2: whistle could have blown, maybe it didn’t know. It’s fine,

398
00:18:25,680 –> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 2: the guy was fighting for extra yards, but then the

399
00:18:27,400 –> 00:18:30,399
Speaker 2: balls popped out and then Jalen Hurts and Saquan get

400
00:18:30,440 –> 00:18:32,480
Speaker 2: the ball at their own thirty five yard line. And

401
00:18:32,560 –> 00:18:35,360
Speaker 2: it’s just really difficult to play from behind against these

402
00:18:35,359 –> 00:18:37,600
Speaker 2: guys because of how they play offensively, and again, you

403
00:18:37,600 –> 00:18:40,560
Speaker 2: can’t just give him extra opportunities for the Chiefs offense.

404
00:18:40,680 –> 00:18:43,159
Speaker 2: Just kind of continuing this conversation, though, I think the

405
00:18:43,240 –> 00:18:45,560
Speaker 2: quick passing game that basically is an extension of the

406
00:18:45,640 –> 00:18:48,440
Speaker 2: running game, could be really beneficial in this game and effective.

407
00:18:48,800 –> 00:18:51,359
Speaker 2: We saw that early in the Buffalo game with Hollywood,

408
00:18:51,359 –> 00:18:54,600
Speaker 2: where it’s those quick crossers over the middle. The ball’s out,

409
00:18:54,680 –> 00:18:57,880
Speaker 2: lightning quick, and the Eagles pass rush is really good.

410
00:18:57,920 –> 00:19:00,280
Speaker 2: They don’t have the big sack numbers, but like Alan

411
00:19:00,359 –> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 2: Carter is like a beast in the middle, Nolan Smith

412
00:19:02,880 –> 00:19:06,040
Speaker 2: really good off the edge, Josh Sweat really good off

413
00:19:06,080 –> 00:19:09,080
Speaker 2: the edge. So we talk about kind of take them

414
00:19:09,080 –> 00:19:10,880
Speaker 2: with the defense gives you, Well, the quicker the ball

415
00:19:10,880 –> 00:19:13,080
Speaker 2: gets out, I think the better in this game. Just

416
00:19:13,119 –> 00:19:15,600
Speaker 2: be efficient, move down the field. And I looked up

417
00:19:15,800 –> 00:19:19,960
Speaker 2: Mahomes stats in the Buffalo game when he was kept clean,

418
00:19:20,240 –> 00:19:23,000
Speaker 2: there’s twenty five of those dropbacks. He was just surgical

419
00:19:23,040 –> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 2: when kept clean. When fourteen of nineteen for one hundred

420
00:19:25,560 –> 00:19:27,960
Speaker 2: and sixty three yards in a touchdown, and his average

421
00:19:28,000 –> 00:19:30,439
Speaker 2: time to throw on those was two point five seconds.

422
00:19:30,520 –> 00:19:32,840
Speaker 2: That’s pretty quick. So of course there’s going to be

423
00:19:32,840 –> 00:19:34,959
Speaker 2: opportunities to take some deep shots in this one and

424
00:19:35,280 –> 00:19:38,159
Speaker 2: some longer developing plays, and you do things in the

425
00:19:38,200 –> 00:19:40,280
Speaker 2: game to set those moments up. But for the most part,

426
00:19:40,280 –> 00:19:43,560
Speaker 2: I think if we’re able to use that quick passing game,

427
00:19:43,760 –> 00:19:46,239
Speaker 2: take what the defense gives us. Over the middle. If

428
00:19:46,280 –> 00:19:48,359
Speaker 2: it’s a twelve play drive or a four play drive,

429
00:19:48,359 –> 00:19:50,200
Speaker 2: as long as it ends in seven points, it doesn’t matter.

430
00:19:50,520 –> 00:19:52,080
Speaker 2: That’s my hope for this game. And the Chiefs have

431
00:19:52,119 –> 00:19:55,359
Speaker 2: really done that really really well over the last several games.

432
00:19:55,359 –> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh they did it very well, Houston a little bit,

433
00:19:58,440 –> 00:20:01,320
Speaker 2: but for sure against the two weeks ago.

434
00:20:02,000 –> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: Another part of the Vic Fangios game is will you

435
00:20:05,160 –> 00:20:08,600
Speaker 1: stay discipline and will you protect the football because we’re

436
00:20:08,600 –> 00:20:10,000
Speaker 1: going to try to punch it out. And then the

437
00:20:10,000 –> 00:20:13,080
Speaker 1: red zone becomes very important. If you look at the

438
00:20:13,080 –> 00:20:16,239
Speaker 1: Philadelphia Eagles, it’s always important, but against Philly they were

439
00:20:16,240 –> 00:20:18,320
Speaker 1: tied for fifth in the league during the regular season

440
00:20:18,920 –> 00:20:19,840
Speaker 1: in red zone defense.

441
00:20:19,880 –> 00:20:21,160
Speaker 3: You might guess these guys are good.

442
00:20:21,160 –> 00:20:24,960
Speaker 1: In the playoffs, four of ten are their three opponents

443
00:20:25,080 –> 00:20:27,560
Speaker 1: in the red zone. We know the Chiefs struggle during

444
00:20:27,560 –> 00:20:30,040
Speaker 1: the regular season, but they’re six of eleven in the playoffs.

445
00:20:30,359 –> 00:20:34,959
Speaker 1: But the red zone becomes paramount because the Philly defense

446
00:20:35,000 –> 00:20:37,320
Speaker 1: will make you work to get down there if you

447
00:20:37,359 –> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: don’t turn it over, and now you’re there, but you

448
00:20:39,640 –> 00:20:41,720
Speaker 1: don’t have the big play. But now you’re on the doorstep.

449
00:20:41,840 –> 00:20:45,320
Speaker 1: Can you get the sevens and not the threes, and

450
00:20:45,400 –> 00:20:48,560
Speaker 1: that’s where vic Fanjo just continues to test you in

451
00:20:48,640 –> 00:20:50,960
Speaker 1: every snap, side to side down the field.

452
00:20:51,160 –> 00:20:53,200
Speaker 2: That’s where being four of six against the Bills is

453
00:20:53,240 –> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 2: such a big deal. You got to finish in the

454
00:20:54,760 –> 00:20:56,600
Speaker 2: red zone against these really good teams, They’re going to

455
00:20:56,760 –> 00:20:59,439
Speaker 2: keep pressure on you offensively. What’s coach, are you going

456
00:20:59,520 –> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 2: to cook up the red zone this week?

457
00:21:01,080 –> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 3: Though?

458
00:21:01,359 –> 00:21:03,720
Speaker 2: Because we know this, we’ve known this for years, it

459
00:21:03,840 –> 00:21:05,720
Speaker 2: kind of seems like the national media is just now

460
00:21:05,880 –> 00:21:08,800
Speaker 2: realizing it. But Coach Reid is going to put things

461
00:21:08,800 –> 00:21:11,119
Speaker 2: on film during the year and then show you the

462
00:21:11,119 –> 00:21:13,680
Speaker 2: same look in the playoffs and give you a totally

463
00:21:13,680 –> 00:21:16,320
Speaker 2: different play. And we saw that in that Buffalo game.

464
00:21:17,320 –> 00:21:17,840
Speaker 2: Who was it?

465
00:21:17,880 –> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 3: Was it?

466
00:21:19,040 –> 00:21:21,120
Speaker 2: A Buffalo defender talked about how he had never seen

467
00:21:21,160 –> 00:21:23,520
Speaker 2: Greg russoe. He’s like, I have never seen that play

468
00:21:23,560 –> 00:21:25,639
Speaker 2: before out of them out of that formation. Never It

469
00:21:25,680 –> 00:21:27,520
Speaker 2: was the Mahomes run the run.

470
00:21:27,640 –> 00:21:29,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it’s a double lead. If you watch it,

471
00:21:29,800 –> 00:21:33,200
Speaker 1: you’ll see so they chip Brousseau in Pats out there

472
00:21:33,280 –> 00:21:38,000
Speaker 1: like a it’s a Lamar Jackson play. I mean it’s

473
00:21:38,040 –> 00:21:40,760
Speaker 1: a quarterback lead and with two guys out in front.

474
00:21:40,880 –> 00:21:42,840
Speaker 1: We’ve never run that we’ve never run it before. And

475
00:21:43,200 –> 00:21:45,080
Speaker 1: I assure you there are things like that in the

476
00:21:45,080 –> 00:21:47,919
Speaker 1: hopper for this game. So that’s why you said your

477
00:21:47,920 –> 00:21:50,560
Speaker 1: best plays and your best moments for the super Bowl.

478
00:21:50,600 –> 00:21:53,480
Speaker 1: But what’s the genius of coach Reid is he uses

479
00:21:53,520 –> 00:21:56,119
Speaker 1: the whole season to set these things up in the game,

480
00:21:56,280 –> 00:21:58,919
Speaker 1: to set them up. I remember Jet Chip wasp.

481
00:21:59,200 –> 00:22:01,520
Speaker 2: The reason that worked, if you go back and watch

482
00:22:01,560 –> 00:22:04,280
Speaker 2: the NFL film’s turning point is because earlier in the

483
00:22:04,280 –> 00:22:07,400
Speaker 2: game they ran a similar play or Tyreek cut in

484
00:22:07,400 –> 00:22:09,880
Speaker 2: instead of cutting out. So the safety when you’re playing

485
00:22:09,920 –> 00:22:11,720
Speaker 2: a guy like Tyreek, you have to rely on what

486
00:22:11,720 –> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: you’ve seen. You shift your weight in, he cuts out,

487
00:22:14,760 –> 00:22:16,399
Speaker 2: and we all know what happened after that. So there

488
00:22:16,400 –> 00:22:18,959
Speaker 2: will be plays and moments in this game and hopefully

489
00:22:19,000 –> 00:22:20,000
Speaker 2: they lead to a Chiefs win.

490
00:22:21,800 –> 00:22:25,680
Speaker 1: It’s Super Bowl fifty nine and here we are. The

491
00:22:25,760 –> 00:22:30,520
Speaker 1: Chiefs were setting right there and have pulled up to

492
00:22:30,560 –> 00:22:33,840
Speaker 1: the Superdome with the chance to do something that no

493
00:22:33,960 –> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 1: team has ever been done before. I’m going to get

494
00:22:35,880 –> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 1: one last thought from you as we sat here just

495
00:22:39,880 –> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 1: waiting for this.

496
00:22:41,320 –> 00:22:43,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think I just kind of finished with what

497
00:22:43,280 –> 00:22:46,320
Speaker 2: we started with that We’ve waited all year for this,

498
00:22:46,359 –> 00:22:49,840
Speaker 2: and it’s probably the culmination of several years. This journey began,

499
00:22:50,480 –> 00:22:52,360
Speaker 2: you know, when Patrick Mahomes first got here, when Coach

500
00:22:52,400 –> 00:22:55,240
Speaker 2: Reed first got here in twenty thirteen, but also the

501
00:22:55,320 –> 00:22:57,960
Speaker 2: last two years, to win the Super Bowl against the

502
00:22:57,960 –> 00:23:00,040
Speaker 2: forty nine ers, to win the Super Bowl against the

503
00:23:00,040 –> 00:23:02,399
Speaker 2: Eagles two years ago, and now now to have this

504
00:23:02,480 –> 00:23:05,200
Speaker 2: chance to win three straight Super Bowls. We might never

505
00:23:05,200 –> 00:23:07,720
Speaker 2: see something like this ever again, and we were living it.

506
00:23:07,720 –> 00:23:10,080
Speaker 2: It’s our team, it’s in our lifetime, and we have

507
00:23:10,119 –> 00:23:12,760
Speaker 2: an opportunity to enjoy it. Let’s go get this thing

508
00:23:12,920 –> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 2: taken care of on Sunday and enjoy the journey along

509
00:23:15,240 –> 00:23:16,800
Speaker 2: the way. Just a little bit nervous.

510
00:23:17,000 –> 00:23:19,040
Speaker 1: If the Chiefs do this, I’ve said this, it’ll have

511
00:23:19,080 –> 00:23:21,760
Speaker 1: a seventy two Dolphins feel to it. Yeah, just as

512
00:23:21,760 –> 00:23:23,439
Speaker 1: where this league’s gonna go. It’s going to be that

513
00:23:23,520 –> 00:23:27,280
Speaker 1: much harder to pull this off. And yes, super Bowl

514
00:23:27,359 –> 00:23:32,600
Speaker 1: one was historically impactful because it was the first ever

515
00:23:32,680 –> 00:23:36,200
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, so that went beyond our franchise. Super Bowl

516
00:23:36,200 –> 00:23:39,920
Speaker 1: four was great, but that was us super Bowl. These

517
00:23:40,080 –> 00:23:44,359
Speaker 1: last three have been us. This one is way more.

518
00:23:44,840 –> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 1: This is the history of American Sport and the Kansas

519
00:23:49,400 –> 00:23:51,480
Speaker 1: City Chiefs have a chance to do something that’s never

520
00:23:51,520 –> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: been done, and we’re that much closer
