‘Auditing Assets’ – Offseason Preview | Defending The Kingdom

1
00:00:00,360 –> 00:00:03,760
Speaker 1: The National Football League always moves on. You can win

2
00:00:03,880 –> 00:00:06,840
Speaker 1: Super Bowl Championships. The Chiefs have done it four times

3
00:00:06,840 –> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: in their history, three times since twenty nineteen. You have parades,

4
00:00:10,440 –> 00:00:13,600
Speaker 1: you have celebrations, you get rings, but you must move on.

5
00:00:14,720 –> 00:00:17,960
Speaker 1: You can also lose Super Bowls. The Chiefs have lost three,

6
00:00:18,600 –> 00:00:21,400
Speaker 1: but in a similar manner, you must move on. In

7
00:00:21,440 –> 00:00:25,120
Speaker 1: any case, you always do an audit of your assets

8
00:00:25,440 –> 00:00:28,400
Speaker 1: to get ready for the next season. That’s what we’re

9
00:00:28,440 –> 00:00:31,200
Speaker 1: doing on this edition of Defending the Kingdom, brought to

10
00:00:31,200 –> 00:00:32,199
Speaker 1: you by Ticketmaster.

11
00:00:33,320 –> 00:00:35,280
Speaker 2: Keeps it on an RPO. At the five, it’s a

12
00:00:35,320 –> 00:00:35,920
Speaker 2: lead plug.

13
00:00:36,080 –> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 3: He goes into the hands on.

14
00:00:37,440 –> 00:00:43,040
Speaker 1: His side, touch down Chunesa City. Hi everyone, I’m Mitchelta’s

15
00:00:43,080 –> 00:00:46,519
Speaker 1: voice of the Chiefs along with senior team reporter Matt McMullen.

16
00:00:47,000 –> 00:00:51,520
Speaker 1: And this episode is going to be called auditing the assets.

17
00:00:51,600 –> 00:00:54,760
Speaker 1: Just like when you have your own books audited or

18
00:00:54,800 –> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: your business. That’s what we’re gonna do with the Kansas

19
00:00:57,440 –> 00:01:00,760
Speaker 1: City Chiefs because you must move on. Start this way.

20
00:01:01,360 –> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 1: When the Chiefs won Super Bowl fifty eight, the day

21
00:01:03,800 –> 00:01:09,560
Speaker 1: after the parade, I got a photo from Brettveach and

22
00:01:09,640 –> 00:01:14,960
Speaker 1: it was his staff working you know, grinding away on

23
00:01:15,080 –> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: getting ready for the combine and the draft. I thought,

24
00:01:17,240 –> 00:01:19,080
Speaker 1: all right, man, he’s right on it. All the rest

25
00:01:19,080 –> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: of us are still partying. He’s right there. I got

26
00:01:22,840 –> 00:01:26,920
Speaker 1: the same photo from him the day after we got

27
00:01:26,959 –> 00:01:29,040
Speaker 1: back from the Super Bowl for Super Bowl fifty nine,

28
00:01:29,080 –> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: because even though we lost the game and everybody feels

29
00:01:31,000 –> 00:01:33,200
Speaker 1: they have a shot put in their stomach, he was

30
00:01:33,240 –> 00:01:35,319
Speaker 1: in there grinding away with the staff getting ready for

31
00:01:35,360 –> 00:01:38,319
Speaker 1: the combine and the draft for twenty twenty five. It

32
00:01:38,400 –> 00:01:41,160
Speaker 1: actually lifted me up, and I said, that’s why we win,

33
00:01:41,240 –> 00:01:43,679
Speaker 1: because those guys grind, but you move on.

34
00:01:44,080 –> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, it’s all you really can do and listen. I mean,

35
00:01:47,760 –> 00:01:50,880
Speaker 4: it was disappointing. Obviously, it’s not what we expected or

36
00:01:50,880 –> 00:01:53,000
Speaker 4: were hoping for, and it takes a while to get

37
00:01:53,000 –> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 4: over it. I think for like a week I just

38
00:01:55,240 –> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 4: didn’t consume like any sports media, just kind of tried

39
00:01:58,480 –> 00:02:00,520
Speaker 4: to turn my brain off for a little bit. But

40
00:02:00,960 –> 00:02:03,640
Speaker 4: doesn’t mean that you don’t process it. And really, the

41
00:02:03,680 –> 00:02:06,120
Speaker 4: one emotion I think I kept feeling after the fact,

42
00:02:06,440 –> 00:02:09,680
Speaker 4: even more so than just being bummed out, was just

43
00:02:09,720 –> 00:02:12,639
Speaker 4: being grateful because we were in that moment and it

44
00:02:12,680 –> 00:02:14,600
Speaker 4: didn’t end the way that we wanted it to. But

45
00:02:15,320 –> 00:02:17,520
Speaker 4: how cool is it that we’ve been in that moment

46
00:02:17,639 –> 00:02:20,560
Speaker 4: so many times and more often than not, we’ve won,

47
00:02:20,919 –> 00:02:23,240
Speaker 4: and we know what it feels like to win, but

48
00:02:23,320 –> 00:02:25,640
Speaker 4: when you lose, it gives you even more perspective on

49
00:02:25,680 –> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 4: how awesome it is to win. And I just kept

50
00:02:28,160 –> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 4: thinking about that, like I’ve seen the Chiefs in my

51
00:02:30,760 –> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 4: life and in my time working here, won the Super

52
00:02:32,960 –> 00:02:36,359
Speaker 4: Bowl three times and playing it five times. I mean,

53
00:02:36,360 –> 00:02:39,360
Speaker 4: that’s just absolutely incredible. And yeah, it stinks to lose.

54
00:02:39,480 –> 00:02:41,680
Speaker 4: We went there to win, didn’t want to lose that game.

55
00:02:41,720 –> 00:02:44,720
Speaker 4: But you lose it and you think it’s so cool

56
00:02:44,760 –> 00:02:47,840
Speaker 4: that we’ve won before. I want to feel that feeling again.

57
00:02:48,320 –> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 4: And that’s what we’re doing, and with getting back on

58
00:02:51,200 –> 00:02:53,640
Speaker 4: our podcast, you know, that’s what fans are doing, trying

59
00:02:53,639 –> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 4: to follow the draft and see how this team can

60
00:02:55,680 –> 00:02:57,600
Speaker 4: get better. And that’s what Brett Veach and Coach Reader

61
00:02:57,600 –> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 4: are doing. The day after things in it’s like, all right,

62
00:03:01,040 –> 00:03:02,920
Speaker 4: how do we fix the problems and get back to

63
00:03:02,960 –> 00:03:05,680
Speaker 4: the super Bowl and win it? And I agree with you,

64
00:03:05,680 –> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 4: and that’s the beauty of this team. It’s moving forward,

65
00:03:07,440 –> 00:03:08,680
Speaker 4: not worrying about what happened.

66
00:03:09,200 –> 00:03:11,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, before we get to your around the world. I’ve

67
00:03:11,760 –> 00:03:15,800
Speaker 1: only worn the twenty twenty AFC Championship ring once and

68
00:03:15,880 –> 00:03:18,840
Speaker 1: it was to the Chiefs Kingdom show the day after

69
00:03:18,880 –> 00:03:21,120
Speaker 1: we got back from the Super Bowl this year. And

70
00:03:21,200 –> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 1: I did because and I was told by someone in

71
00:03:23,520 –> 00:03:26,040
Speaker 1: the organization, you don’t wear that ring. That’s a loser’s ring.

72
00:03:26,080 –> 00:03:29,360
Speaker 1: You don’t you know, it’s runner up, your miscongeniality or whatever.

73
00:03:29,919 –> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 1: And I said, no, not that ring, because that represented COVID. Yeah,

74
00:03:33,960 –> 00:03:36,720
Speaker 1: getting up at five point thirty, going to the trailer

75
00:03:36,760 –> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: house and getting a swab up your nose, and you’re

76
00:03:39,000 –> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 1: every night you’re taking your temperature. Don’t get my homesick,

77
00:03:41,480 –> 00:03:43,880
Speaker 1: don’t get Kelsey sick, don’t get coach sick. You and

78
00:03:43,880 –> 00:03:47,280
Speaker 1: I are doing camp from the fence up on the hill,

79
00:03:48,320 –> 00:03:51,880
Speaker 1: living in perpetual stress. Can’t sleep, you can’t sleep. And

80
00:03:51,960 –> 00:03:54,280
Speaker 1: so I thought, now that ring represents that. The twenty

81
00:03:54,360 –> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 1: twenty four team will also be a team that will

82
00:03:57,280 –> 00:04:01,880
Speaker 1: represent something to me that’s very special. Because they had

83
00:04:02,080 –> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 1: the pressure of trying to become the first team ever

84
00:04:04,760 –> 00:04:08,120
Speaker 1: in NFL history to three peat. They did remarkable things.

85
00:04:08,200 –> 00:04:09,640
Speaker 1: They were asked to play on every day of the

86
00:04:09,640 –> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 1: week that there was a game. They had to play

87
00:04:11,960 –> 00:04:13,920
Speaker 1: the toughest schedule. Again, they had to do it on

88
00:04:13,960 –> 00:04:18,599
Speaker 1: the shortest post season ever, short offseason ever, i should say,

89
00:04:18,960 –> 00:04:22,080
Speaker 1: And yet this team persevered, fought through it. Three games

90
00:04:22,080 –> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: in eleven days. Four other teams had to three other

91
00:04:24,120 –> 00:04:26,000
Speaker 1: teams had to do it. Got it, I got it.

92
00:04:26,279 –> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: None of those other three teams were trying to become

93
00:04:28,720 –> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 1: a three p champion, and they had to win the

94
00:04:31,160 –> 00:04:33,760
Speaker 1: games that they won in those three days, in eleven

95
00:04:33,839 –> 00:04:36,360
Speaker 1: three games eleven days. Because Buffalo, give them credit, was

96
00:04:36,400 –> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 1: breathing down our neck. You lose one of those games,

97
00:04:38,760 –> 00:04:41,000
Speaker 1: you’re going to lose the one seed. So this team

98
00:04:41,120 –> 00:04:42,960
Speaker 1: was able to do it. They did it with blockoff

99
00:04:43,000 –> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 1: field goals, stink field goals made, did it with the defense,

100
00:04:46,480 –> 00:04:49,000
Speaker 1: did it with the offense, walk off plays on offense,

101
00:04:49,040 –> 00:04:52,240
Speaker 1: did it in overtime. They talked about the nine consecutive

102
00:04:52,240 –> 00:04:54,440
Speaker 1: one possession wins and like that was a weakness. No,

103
00:04:54,480 –> 00:04:57,400
Speaker 1: it was a strength. So the twenty four team will

104
00:04:57,440 –> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: not be a loser team to me at all. They

105
00:04:59,279 –> 00:05:02,359
Speaker 1: will be set as as a remarkable group of human

106
00:05:02,400 –> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 1: beings that did something that has never been done in

107
00:05:04,440 –> 00:05:06,080
Speaker 1: the NFL, and that is to win back to back

108
00:05:06,120 –> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: Super Bowls and get back to the Super Bowl for

109
00:05:08,560 –> 00:05:09,160
Speaker 1: a chance for a.

110
00:05:09,120 –> 00:05:13,560
Speaker 4: Three p Patrick Mahomes played in nineteen games in twenty

111
00:05:13,600 –> 00:05:17,240
Speaker 4: twenty four and the Chiefs won seventeen of them. One

112
00:05:17,279 –> 00:05:19,479
Speaker 4: of the games that we lost was to Buffalo, and

113
00:05:19,520 –> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 4: then Mahomes beat Buffalo when it counted. The only other

114
00:05:22,720 –> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 4: loss was unfortunately the Super Bowl. And that’s just the

115
00:05:25,160 –> 00:05:28,839
Speaker 4: way it goes with sports sometimes. I mean, really, we’re

116
00:05:28,880 –> 00:05:30,480
Speaker 4: not going to spend too much time on this because

117
00:05:30,480 –> 00:05:32,440
Speaker 4: everyone’s talked about the game. Don’t want to talk about

118
00:05:32,440 –> 00:05:34,880
Speaker 4: the game anymore. And there are things in the game

119
00:05:34,880 –> 00:05:36,279
Speaker 4: that you could look at and say, hey, the game

120
00:05:36,320 –> 00:05:38,200
Speaker 4: turned here, or if this was better, maybe we would

121
00:05:38,200 –> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 4: have won.

122
00:05:39,360 –> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 3: It was not our day. That’s really what it boils

123
00:05:41,440 –> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 3: down to.

124
00:05:41,960 –> 00:05:45,240
Speaker 1: And give Philly, Yeah they were great, they were awesome.

125
00:05:45,320 –> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 2: That’s a really good team.

126
00:05:46,320 –> 00:05:48,640
Speaker 3: I’m not sure who beats Philly in that game on

127
00:05:48,680 –> 00:05:49,080
Speaker 3: that day.

128
00:05:49,279 –> 00:05:52,840
Speaker 4: I just Philly won and it wasn’t our day, and

129
00:05:53,080 –> 00:05:56,640
Speaker 4: you move forward from it. And again, we’ve had these

130
00:05:56,680 –> 00:05:59,880
Speaker 4: moments before. Now we haven’t had them in a while.

131
00:06:00,320 –> 00:06:02,359
Speaker 4: We went more than a thousand days without losing a

132
00:06:02,360 –> 00:06:04,880
Speaker 4: playoff game. It’s just crazy. But we’re going to talk

133
00:06:04,880 –> 00:06:06,520
Speaker 4: about over the course of the podcast, how did the

134
00:06:06,520 –> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 4: team respond to these kinds of moments before, And the

135
00:06:10,000 –> 00:06:13,680
Speaker 4: good news is they responded tremendously well, actually better than

136
00:06:13,720 –> 00:06:17,040
Speaker 4: they were going into the bad moment. So, yeah, we

137
00:06:17,080 –> 00:06:21,159
Speaker 4: have the infrastructure here, we have the foundation here. Where

138
00:06:21,800 –> 00:06:24,800
Speaker 4: the funny thing is, I think outside of Chiefs Kingdom,

139
00:06:25,000 –> 00:06:27,760
Speaker 4: a lot of people are celebrating saying, hey, the Chiefs

140
00:06:27,760 –> 00:06:30,400
Speaker 4: are done well. Patrick Mahomes is twenty nine years old.

141
00:06:30,480 –> 00:06:34,159
Speaker 4: Coatrid isn’t going anywhere. This team isn’t going anywhere, and

142
00:06:34,279 –> 00:06:36,279
Speaker 4: this thing is going to keep on rolling. And to

143
00:06:36,320 –> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 4: win the AFC three straight years, to make the playoffs

144
00:06:39,880 –> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 4: ten years in a row, when the division nine years

145
00:06:41,960 –> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 4: in a row, going for a tenth straight AFC West

146
00:06:44,600 –> 00:06:48,200
Speaker 4: title this year, I’m fired up. I’m excited.

147
00:06:48,240 –> 00:06:48,440
Speaker 2: You know.

148
00:06:48,480 –> 00:06:51,719
Speaker 4: We had a couple of days where we’re disappointed and sad,

149
00:06:51,760 –> 00:06:53,440
Speaker 4: and then really one day I woke up and I

150
00:06:53,520 –> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 4: was like, I have fired up to get after this

151
00:06:55,160 –> 00:06:57,039
Speaker 4: because I believe in this team, and I believe what

152
00:06:57,120 –> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 4: this team is built around and the foundation that we

153
00:06:59,600 –> 00:07:02,719
Speaker 4: have here, and that isn’t just me, or isn’t just Mitch.

154
00:07:02,760 –> 00:07:06,120
Speaker 4: It’s the entire organization is excited like wins training camp,

155
00:07:06,279 –> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 4: you know, and you don’t always have that with the

156
00:07:07,880 –> 00:07:10,760
Speaker 4: team that loses the Super Bowl. So anyway, I’m fired out,

157
00:07:10,800 –> 00:07:11,520
Speaker 4: let’s get after it.

158
00:07:11,600 –> 00:07:13,880
Speaker 1: We’re going to get into detail here of why we’re

159
00:07:13,920 –> 00:07:16,960
Speaker 1: fired up because there’s instead of us just like waving

160
00:07:17,000 –> 00:07:19,520
Speaker 1: our hands and going, hey, we’re ready to go, there’s

161
00:07:19,600 –> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 1: reason and it’s based on data and it’s based on experience.

162
00:07:23,520 –> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: But before we do that, let’s go around the world

163
00:07:27,080 –> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 1: in our twenty twenty five version, get Let’s get ready

164
00:07:30,200 –> 00:07:30,760
Speaker 1: for the season.

165
00:07:31,400 –> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 2: Your space capsule.

166
00:07:32,600 –> 00:07:34,320
Speaker 3: Just three today, because we have a lot of stuff

167
00:07:34,360 –> 00:07:34,920
Speaker 3: to talk about.

168
00:07:35,160 –> 00:07:38,840
Speaker 1: So for the three points that Denver didn’t get when

169
00:07:39,120 –> 00:07:40,360
Speaker 1: Leo Chanell blocked.

170
00:07:40,080 –> 00:07:42,280
Speaker 2: The field goal, I’d love us do that for that.

171
00:07:42,360 –> 00:07:42,840
Speaker 3: I think that.

172
00:07:42,880 –> 00:07:45,480
Speaker 1: Sometimes it’s the points you get, sometimes it’s the points

173
00:07:45,520 –> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: you prevent. And Leo Chanell had an incredible year. We’re

174
00:07:48,480 –> 00:07:50,120
Speaker 1: going to talk about him in this podcast.

175
00:07:50,160 –> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 2: Book.

176
00:07:50,440 –> 00:07:52,840
Speaker 4: Fire Away always reminds me of my father in law

177
00:07:52,960 –> 00:07:56,280
Speaker 4: that was actually listening to you on the radio during

178
00:07:56,320 –> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 4: that game, because father in law za Broncos fan. You know,

179
00:07:58,800 –> 00:08:01,440
Speaker 4: it’s kind of a weird dynamic. He was out pheasant

180
00:08:01,480 –> 00:08:04,280
Speaker 4: hunting in Western Kansas and it was in like the

181
00:08:04,400 –> 00:08:07,320
Speaker 4: range the Chiefs Radio network and not the Bronco network

182
00:08:07,360 –> 00:08:09,760
Speaker 4: whatever it’s called. So he was listening to you and

183
00:08:10,160 –> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 4: you’re called the block off, he said. He screamed in

184
00:08:12,320 –> 00:08:16,280
Speaker 4: agony and the spieled in Western Kansas, and like it’s

185
00:08:16,320 –> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 4: people like my father in law and like I had

186
00:08:17,720 –> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 4: friends from college that aren’t ches fans, you know, all

187
00:08:20,360 –> 00:08:22,440
Speaker 4: the like, hey, I’m so sorry, man, hey man, And

188
00:08:22,480 –> 00:08:25,160
Speaker 4: I’m like, nobody should feel sorry for me or for us,

189
00:08:25,640 –> 00:08:28,000
Speaker 4: and we’re going to keep winning. So anyway, I digress.

190
00:08:28,680 –> 00:08:32,160
Speaker 4: I met Gary out in New Orleans earlier in the week.

191
00:08:32,640 –> 00:08:35,080
Speaker 4: He came up and introduced himself. He was a left

192
00:08:35,120 –> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 4: tackle on Brett Beach’s high school football team at Mount Carmel.

193
00:08:38,600 –> 00:08:39,240
Speaker 3: How cool is that?

194
00:08:39,280 –> 00:08:40,040
Speaker 2: And they’re a power.

195
00:08:40,080 –> 00:08:45,240
Speaker 1: The Red Tornado is a power in Eastern PA. That’s

196
00:08:45,280 –> 00:08:47,880
Speaker 1: saying something to be the tackle on that team. But yeah,

197
00:08:48,080 –> 00:08:49,120
Speaker 1: and Brett was really good.

198
00:08:49,200 –> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, he was like the Pennsylvania State Player of the

199
00:08:51,480 –> 00:08:54,079
Speaker 4: Year or something. He was running back, corner, all kinds

200
00:08:54,120 –> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 4: of stuff. I thought that was funny when we posted

201
00:08:56,400 –> 00:08:59,600
Speaker 4: on social a little while ago Matt n Aggie hitting

202
00:08:59,600 –> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 4: Brett at Delaware, and then a bunch of fans were like,

203
00:09:02,320 –> 00:09:03,840
Speaker 4: I didn’t know Brett Beach played football.

204
00:09:04,080 –> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, he’s really good at it. Toolls a more video we.

205
00:09:07,360 –> 00:09:10,760
Speaker 4: Can find YEP, kind of a similar deal. I met

206
00:09:10,800 –> 00:09:14,040
Speaker 4: Grace and Ward at the team hotel during Super Bowl Week.

207
00:09:14,360 –> 00:09:16,640
Speaker 4: Ward was a friend of Coach Reid’s in high school.

208
00:09:16,760 –> 00:09:20,720
Speaker 4: So listen, we think about Coach Read and Brett Veach

209
00:09:20,840 –> 00:09:23,760
Speaker 4: like they’re these institutions, like they live at the stadium,

210
00:09:23,800 –> 00:09:26,120
Speaker 4: like they’ve just been doing this for a thousand years.

211
00:09:26,480 –> 00:09:28,199
Speaker 4: I think it’s so cool that they remember their high

212
00:09:28,200 –> 00:09:30,360
Speaker 4: school friends and bring them to the Super Bowl. Yeah,

213
00:09:30,360 –> 00:09:31,880
Speaker 4: it just so it was like the human aspect of

214
00:09:31,880 –> 00:09:32,160
Speaker 4: all this.

215
00:09:32,240 –> 00:09:32,840
Speaker 3: It’s so cool.

216
00:09:32,920 –> 00:09:36,480
Speaker 1: The John Marshall Barristers and just and we talk about

217
00:09:36,520 –> 00:09:39,079
Speaker 1: how Brett was really really good in high school and college.

218
00:09:39,280 –> 00:09:42,560
Speaker 2: So was Coach Read. Yeah, that dude was. He was.

219
00:09:42,840 –> 00:09:45,679
Speaker 1: He was stud and like you think about one of

220
00:09:45,720 –> 00:09:48,600
Speaker 1: the best players in Los Angeles is saying something and

221
00:09:48,760 –> 00:09:50,920
Speaker 1: if he wouldn’t have know, he messed up a knee.

222
00:09:51,320 –> 00:09:52,960
Speaker 1: So that took him off the track of going to

223
00:09:53,040 –> 00:09:54,839
Speaker 1: USC where he was headed and he had to go

224
00:09:54,880 –> 00:09:57,160
Speaker 1: to Glendale Community College and then he ends up going

225
00:09:57,160 –> 00:10:01,160
Speaker 1: to BYU. But he could play, and you know, they

226
00:10:01,160 –> 00:10:04,760
Speaker 1: played some high level teams man at Leo Leonardo Dicapria.

227
00:10:04,840 –> 00:10:07,360
Speaker 3: So Alma Mater grew up watching Mike Garrett.

228
00:10:07,440 –> 00:10:09,160
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, he loved the choir huddle.

229
00:10:09,559 –> 00:10:13,320
Speaker 4: Lastly, met Terrell at the Zoo the other day. I

230
00:10:13,320 –> 00:10:15,640
Speaker 4: was there supporting Ellie because she works at the zoo,

231
00:10:15,640 –> 00:10:18,240
Speaker 4: and there was like a zoo event going on on

232
00:10:18,360 –> 00:10:20,600
Speaker 4: Valentine’s Day actually, and I was getting some food at

233
00:10:20,600 –> 00:10:22,520

235
00:10:24,600 –> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 4: for watching.

236
00:10:25,080 –> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 2: What was the weather like on the on Valentine’s Day?

237
00:10:27,679 –> 00:10:29,199
Speaker 3: It was cool, but it was an indoor event.

238
00:10:29,559 –> 00:10:31,680
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it was cool though because they had like

239
00:10:31,760 –> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 4: a it was kind of like they had like a

240
00:10:34,000 –> 00:10:37,240
Speaker 4: stage show where they had like an improv group do

241
00:10:37,280 –> 00:10:40,800
Speaker 4: some funny stuff. But they before that, they had some

242
00:10:40,840 –> 00:10:43,600
Speaker 4: live animal interaction. So they had like a some kind

243
00:10:43,600 –> 00:10:46,880
Speaker 4: of bird, like an eagle or something, and like a monkey,

244
00:10:46,960 –> 00:10:47,720
Speaker 4: and yeah, it was good.

245
00:10:47,800 –> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: They do the penguin Walk.

246
00:10:49,640 –> 00:10:51,800
Speaker 4: Not during that now, but the Penguin Walk is great.

247
00:10:51,920 –> 00:10:53,520
Speaker 4: We’re getting to the point where it’s getting too warm

248
00:10:53,520 –> 00:10:55,240
Speaker 4: for the penguin walk. But the penguins will come out

249
00:10:55,240 –> 00:10:58,480
Speaker 4: on Saturday mornings. This is the Shameless Zoo and Aquarium plug.

250
00:10:59,040 –> 00:11:00,559
Speaker 4: And then let’s walk around. And if you just walk

251
00:11:00,600 –> 00:11:04,000
Speaker 4: over to the Hellsburg Penguin Plaza, you see the penguin’s

252
00:11:04,000 –> 00:11:05,200
Speaker 4: walking around, walking around.

253
00:11:05,240 –> 00:11:07,080
Speaker 2: You want to walk on to them, Hey, penguin, what’s up?

254
00:11:07,080 –> 00:11:07,440
Speaker 2: What’s up?

255
00:11:07,559 –> 00:11:11,600
Speaker 1: So they love the minus nine oh yes, real temperature

256
00:11:11,640 –> 00:11:13,280
Speaker 1: and minus twenty wind chills.

257
00:11:13,280 –> 00:11:17,280
Speaker 4: The horses, they’re like, yes, there’s like this, like husky

258
00:11:17,840 –> 00:11:20,040
Speaker 4: across the street from me, Like my neighbors have a husky.

259
00:11:20,440 –> 00:11:22,719
Speaker 4: And on those polar vortex days, the husky was just

260
00:11:22,760 –> 00:11:25,079
Speaker 4: outside just smiling, loving it.

261
00:11:25,080 –> 00:11:26,000
Speaker 3: It’s a beautiful day.

262
00:11:26,720 –> 00:11:28,079
Speaker 1: I hate to tell them there’s going to be a

263
00:11:28,160 –> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: ninety five degree one degree.

264
00:11:31,480 –> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 2: Humidity day coming.

265
00:11:32,960 –> 00:11:37,079
Speaker 1: Well, we’re going to jump into auditing assets.

266
00:11:37,400 –> 00:11:39,000
Speaker 2: What are the assets the chiefs have?

267
00:11:39,160 –> 00:11:41,840
Speaker 1: As we look at them and put them under a microscope,

268
00:11:42,480 –> 00:11:45,400
Speaker 1: that gives you the chance that let the naysayers and

269
00:11:45,440 –> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 1: the haters say this is over covered in coal dust.

270
00:11:48,440 –> 00:11:49,280
Speaker 2: You can copy and.

271
00:11:49,240 –> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 1: Paste the twenty twenty two version Winner after the loss

272
00:11:54,200 –> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 1: in the AFC Championship game that year.

273
00:11:56,800 –> 00:11:58,360
Speaker 2: But it starts with infrastructure.

274
00:11:59,080 –> 00:12:02,599
Speaker 1: And you have to have infrastructure to win at the

275
00:12:02,640 –> 00:12:06,560
Speaker 1: collegiate level, at the high school level, and for sure

276
00:12:07,040 –> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 1: at the NFL level and all of the professional sports.

277
00:12:10,840 –> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: And I think what we overlook is the infrastructure of

278
00:12:13,840 –> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs.

279
00:12:15,400 –> 00:12:16,559
Speaker 2: Now, we need to.

280
00:12:16,520 –> 00:12:19,840
Speaker 1: Tell you the winningest team of all of the major

281
00:12:20,320 –> 00:12:23,480
Speaker 1: sports leagues over a ten year span seventy five percent

282
00:12:23,520 –> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 1: winning percentage. The next closest the Celtics in the NBA

283
00:12:27,000 –> 00:12:29,720
Speaker 1: at six forty six. The next of the Warriors in

284
00:12:29,760 –> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 1: the NBA at six twenty seven. It tells you the

285
00:12:32,840 –> 00:12:35,680
Speaker 1: winning that has been done over a ten to twelve

286
00:12:35,760 –> 00:12:38,520
Speaker 1: year period. All right, but it starts with the Hunt family.

287
00:12:38,840 –> 00:12:40,960
Speaker 1: We can take the Hunt family and Clark conn as

288
00:12:41,000 –> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 1: chairman and CEO of this team because they are competitive,

289
00:12:45,200 –> 00:12:49,280
Speaker 1: they are committed, and it takes cash. It takes cash

290
00:12:49,400 –> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: whether you’re going to invest in coaches or to handle

291
00:12:54,040 –> 00:12:56,920
Speaker 1: the salary cap. And you have big time players like

292
00:12:57,000 –> 00:13:01,640
Speaker 1: a Patrick Mahomes or a Travis Kelson. See that it

293
00:13:01,800 –> 00:13:05,760
Speaker 1: takes cash infusion many times to make it work under

294
00:13:05,760 –> 00:13:08,280
Speaker 1: the cap. With the rules, the way they are, But

295
00:13:08,360 –> 00:13:09,199
Speaker 1: we don’t.

296
00:13:08,960 –> 00:13:09,439
Speaker 2: See that.

297
00:13:11,200 –> 00:13:15,120
Speaker 1: A lot, I would say often in most franchises and

298
00:13:15,200 –> 00:13:16,280
Speaker 1: professional sports.

299
00:13:16,440 –> 00:13:17,560
Speaker 2: So we’re going to start there.

300
00:13:18,080 –> 00:13:20,520
Speaker 1: A big part of the infrastructure is the Hunt family

301
00:13:20,920 –> 00:13:24,040
Speaker 1: and Clark Hunt’s commitment to continue to win at a

302
00:13:24,120 –> 00:13:24,640
Speaker 1: high level.

303
00:13:24,920 –> 00:13:28,360
Speaker 4: Yeah, Clark puts the entire organization in a position to succeed.

304
00:13:29,000 –> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 4: And we see that across the NFL and across sports

305
00:13:31,600 –> 00:13:35,240
Speaker 4: that that’s not always a given. But Clark, I mean,

306
00:13:35,280 –> 00:13:37,320
Speaker 4: it’s just incredible how he knows how to run this

307
00:13:37,400 –> 00:13:39,960
Speaker 4: thing and knows how to put people in a position

308
00:13:40,040 –> 00:13:42,560
Speaker 4: to find success. And we’ll talk about Coach Read here

309
00:13:42,600 –> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 4: in a minute, but letting Coach Read do his job,

310
00:13:45,640 –> 00:13:48,560
Speaker 4: letting Brettveach do his job, letting the scouting staff do

311
00:13:48,640 –> 00:13:52,440
Speaker 4: their jobs, and we’ve seen the benefits of that over

312
00:13:52,440 –> 00:13:56,439
Speaker 4: the last several years. I mean, really, you cannot have

313
00:13:56,480 –> 00:13:59,640
Speaker 4: success in the NFL if you don’t have someone at

314
00:13:59,679 –> 00:14:01,880
Speaker 4: the very top who knows what it takes to win

315
00:14:02,160 –> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 4: and knows how to put people in a position to

316
00:14:04,400 –> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 4: find success to win. And that’s what we have with Clark.

317
00:14:06,840 –> 00:14:08,240
Speaker 4: We’re very fortunate, yep.

318
00:14:08,320 –> 00:14:11,120
Speaker 1: And it’s over really very very underrated or people just

319
00:14:11,200 –> 00:14:13,080
Speaker 1: kind of gloss over it. Take it for granted. We

320
00:14:13,160 –> 00:14:16,000
Speaker 1: are not on this episode. Second is coach read when

321
00:14:16,000 –> 00:14:18,280
Speaker 1: you look at the fourth winning as coach in NFL history,

322
00:14:18,400 –> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 1: second in playoff history, and man, he is zooming in

323
00:14:21,640 –> 00:14:24,120
Speaker 1: to take over that top spot in that category. But

324
00:14:24,160 –> 00:14:26,000
Speaker 1: you look at what he is, and we’re going to

325
00:14:26,040 –> 00:14:29,360
Speaker 1: get into where I think he’s brilliant. He’s most brilliant,

326
00:14:30,040 –> 00:14:32,280
Speaker 1: and that will be in the second segment of this podcast.

327
00:14:32,320 –> 00:14:35,120
Speaker 1: But this podcast is the infrastructure. So let’s start with

328
00:14:35,160 –> 00:14:38,560
Speaker 1: coach Red Hunt, Hunt family, Clark Hunts chairman and CEO.

329
00:14:39,080 –> 00:14:41,760
Speaker 1: Second is Andy Reid and the fact that he has

330
00:14:41,800 –> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 1: won one consistently in a span of twenty six years

331
00:14:45,640 –> 00:14:46,320
Speaker 1: as a head.

332
00:14:46,120 –> 00:14:48,840
Speaker 4: Coach, and think about his time in Kansas City. Okay,

333
00:14:49,600 –> 00:14:52,880
Speaker 4: twelve straight winning seasons. I’m going to get into all

334
00:14:52,920 –> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 4: the liberally exciting stuff like division titles and conference titles

335
00:14:56,400 –> 00:14:58,320
Speaker 4: and Super Bowls and all that. But if I went

336
00:14:58,400 –> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 4: back to twenty twelve and I told you or me,

337
00:15:02,160 –> 00:15:04,760
Speaker 4: or just about any Chiefs fan you’re going to have

338
00:15:05,440 –> 00:15:08,000
Speaker 4: three consecutive winning seasons, I think you’d be over the

339
00:15:08,000 –> 00:15:11,760
Speaker 4: moon about that. Twelve winning seasons a winning season. I

340
00:15:11,800 –> 00:15:13,840
Speaker 4: get at this point like, hey, we want to talk

341
00:15:13,840 –> 00:15:16,200
Speaker 4: about super Bowls, but in order to put yourself in

342
00:15:16,240 –> 00:15:18,280
Speaker 4: a position to win a super Bowl, you got to

343
00:15:18,280 –> 00:15:21,040
Speaker 4: have a winning season. And there are so many teams

344
00:15:21,040 –> 00:15:22,440
Speaker 4: like the forty nine ers come to mind, that have

345
00:15:22,480 –> 00:15:25,080
Speaker 4: had a lot of success lately, but they have like

346
00:15:25,280 –> 00:15:28,200
Speaker 4: one just bad clunker season in there where they just

347
00:15:28,600 –> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 4: won six games, And at stanks right, the Chiefs every

348
00:15:32,440 –> 00:15:35,680
Speaker 4: single year have put themselves in a position to maybe

349
00:15:35,680 –> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 4: go win the whole thing. So twelve straight winning seasons,

350
00:15:37,920 –> 00:15:41,960
Speaker 4: ten straight playoff bersts, that’s crazy. Ten consecutive trips to

351
00:15:42,040 –> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 4: the playoffs for a decade, the Chiefs have done nothing

352
00:15:44,360 –> 00:15:46,600
Speaker 4: to go to the playoffs. There are kids who can

353
00:15:46,640 –> 00:15:48,720
Speaker 4: read and write and talk and have personalities who know

354
00:15:48,800 –> 00:15:52,960
Speaker 4: nothing other than the Chiefs going to the playoffs. So incredible,

355
00:15:52,960 –> 00:15:54,720
Speaker 4: and a lot of us in Chiefs Kingdom before this

356
00:15:54,800 –> 00:15:56,640
Speaker 4: stretch know that was not the norm and is not

357
00:15:56,760 –> 00:16:00,120
Speaker 4: the norm. Nine straight division titles again, are going for

358
00:15:59,920 –> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 4: a tenth straight division title this year. Mitch and I, I

359
00:16:04,440 –> 00:16:06,760
Speaker 4: wish everyone could have heard this. Mitch and I the

360
00:16:06,880 –> 00:16:10,000
Speaker 4: day after the Super Bowl loss, We’re on the bus

361
00:16:10,280 –> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 4: just waiting to go to the airport and him and

362
00:16:12,440 –> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 4: I kind of had just like a group therapy session

363
00:16:14,400 –> 00:16:16,880
Speaker 4: where we just talked for like two hours as him

364
00:16:16,880 –> 00:16:18,760
Speaker 4: and I on the back of this bus before we left,

365
00:16:19,120 –> 00:16:22,320
Speaker 4: about everything, kind of unpacking it all. And I think

366
00:16:22,320 –> 00:16:24,200
Speaker 4: the thing that got us most fired up and kind

367
00:16:24,240 –> 00:16:27,280
Speaker 4: of turned our moods around was we’re going for a

368
00:16:27,360 –> 00:16:30,760
Speaker 4: decade of winning the AFC West and it won’t be easy.

369
00:16:30,800 –> 00:16:32,320
Speaker 4: We know the AFC West is going to be good

370
00:16:32,320 –> 00:16:35,360
Speaker 4: this year, but that’s what we’re going for this season.

371
00:16:36,120 –> 00:16:39,400
Speaker 4: Seven straight trips to the AFC Championship Game. I mean,

372
00:16:39,440 –> 00:16:42,000
Speaker 4: it’s almost just like a norm now. I remember how

373
00:16:42,040 –> 00:16:44,920
Speaker 4: cool it was in twenty eighteen, Like we’re hosting the

374
00:16:44,960 –> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 4: AFC title game, and we’ve just done that every single

375
00:16:48,360 –> 00:16:51,360
Speaker 4: year seven for seven years, and one of them was

376
00:16:51,360 –> 00:16:53,520
Speaker 4: in Baltimore, but we won that one whatever. I mean,

377
00:16:53,560 –> 00:16:56,840
Speaker 4: it’s just amazing. So and of course three straight AFC titles,

378
00:16:57,040 –> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 4: defending that again this year and trying to get back

379
00:16:59,600 –> 00:17:02,280
Speaker 4: to the Super So I want to talk about the

380
00:17:02,280 –> 00:17:05,200
Speaker 4: combination with Coach Reid and Patrick Mahomes as well, But yeah,

381
00:17:05,200 –> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 4: coach reads amazing because even before Patrick Mahomes got here,

382
00:17:08,840 –> 00:17:11,760
Speaker 4: all he has done is win every year and no

383
00:17:11,760 –> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 4: matter the circumstances and things have happened, we win.

384
00:17:14,920 –> 00:17:17,840
Speaker 3: That is the baseline. We’ll have a winning season. And

385
00:17:17,840 –> 00:17:19,119
Speaker 3: you cannot take that for granted.

386
00:17:19,920 –> 00:17:22,520
Speaker 1: You’re returning a quarterback who’s not yet thirty, he’ll be

387
00:17:22,600 –> 00:17:26,960
Speaker 1: thirty in September, who has one hundred and six wins

388
00:17:27,160 –> 00:17:30,600
Speaker 1: and twenty seven losses. Let that just soak in for

389
00:17:30,640 –> 00:17:33,680
Speaker 1: a second. And the fact that he’s seventeen and four

390
00:17:33,800 –> 00:17:39,679
Speaker 1: in the playoffs, and let that soak in. So the

391
00:17:39,760 –> 00:17:44,560
Speaker 1: fact that everything’s going to go away, and the detractors, haters, whatever.

392
00:17:45,080 –> 00:17:48,040
Speaker 1: You’re bringing back a head coach who will be not

393
00:17:48,119 –> 00:17:50,919
Speaker 1: even the first ballot Hall of Famer, he’ll shatter the voting.

394
00:17:51,480 –> 00:17:56,040
Speaker 1: And then with Patrick Mahomes, and then you put in

395
00:17:56,240 –> 00:17:58,720
Speaker 1: the fact that this is the most successful NFL team

396
00:17:59,080 –> 00:18:02,960
Speaker 1: ever over a three year span. The forty nine wins

397
00:18:02,960 –> 00:18:07,040
Speaker 1: and twelve losses, including the playoffs is the most successful

398
00:18:07,080 –> 00:18:11,160
Speaker 1: run in a three year span for any NFL team ever.

399
00:18:12,400 –> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: And that is coming back. So again, it’s perspective, but

400
00:18:18,480 –> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 1: understanding that you have this incredible quarterback had one of

401
00:18:22,680 –> 00:18:26,719
Speaker 1: his worst games, he admits it, and a coach that

402
00:18:27,359 –> 00:18:29,480
Speaker 1: he’ll look at that game and go I’ll fix it.

403
00:18:29,520 –> 00:18:31,240
Speaker 1: I’ll fix it. We’re gonna get to that in a second.

404
00:18:31,280 –> 00:18:33,639
Speaker 1: But I see his face telling me we’re going to

405
00:18:33,680 –> 00:18:36,320
Speaker 1: fix it. But the fact that Mahomes is coming back,

406
00:18:36,359 –> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 1: he’s not yet thirty. You alluded to this earlier, But

407
00:18:38,920 –> 00:18:41,480
Speaker 1: what he’s done already, does anybody think he’s going to

408
00:18:41,560 –> 00:18:43,280
Speaker 1: go three and fourteen all of a sudden.

409
00:18:44,040 –> 00:18:46,960
Speaker 4: I will have none of the Patrick Mahomes slander. I

410
00:18:47,040 –> 00:18:49,000
Speaker 4: just want to have it, and I get But have you.

411
00:18:48,960 –> 00:18:52,400
Speaker 1: Seen the comments, like Chris Harris Junior. Yeah, the dB

412
00:18:52,560 –> 00:18:55,560
Speaker 1: for the Broncos is going, are you guys stupid? Like

413
00:18:56,000 –> 00:19:00,639
Speaker 1: he’s not going anywhere. He’s had defenders, they’re not playing anymore.

414
00:19:01,359 –> 00:19:03,600
Speaker 1: But he said, defenders from opponents that are going, you

415
00:19:03,680 –> 00:19:06,320
Speaker 1: guys are crazy. If you think he’s slid back or

416
00:19:06,320 –> 00:19:07,720
Speaker 1: done or going two in fifteen.

417
00:19:07,840 –> 00:19:10,520
Speaker 4: People that really watch it, and yeah, the guys that

418
00:19:10,560 –> 00:19:12,680
Speaker 4: have played against him, the guys that really know, they

419
00:19:12,720 –> 00:19:15,359
Speaker 4: know that he’s not going anywhere and that he I

420
00:19:15,400 –> 00:19:17,280
Speaker 4: still think he’s the greatest quarterback to ever play.

421
00:19:17,359 –> 00:19:18,719
Speaker 3: I’ll just say it. I think he is.

422
00:19:18,760 –> 00:19:20,520
Speaker 4: Well, the numbers are there, yeah, and I think he’s

423
00:19:20,520 –> 00:19:22,280
Speaker 4: going to continue that trajectory. For the rest of his

424
00:19:22,320 –> 00:19:23,360
Speaker 4: career and build on that.

425
00:19:24,200 –> 00:19:26,400
Speaker 3: People. There’s a jealousy.

426
00:19:26,000 –> 00:19:29,040
Speaker 4: Factor there are The Chiefs have ended a lot of

427
00:19:29,040 –> 00:19:31,760
Speaker 4: seasons and ended a lot of fans hopes surround the NFL,

428
00:19:31,840 –> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 4: and they want to see the Chiefs lose.

429
00:19:34,000 –> 00:19:35,360
Speaker 3: They want to see Mahomes struggle.

430
00:19:35,640 –> 00:19:37,800
Speaker 4: I get it, but he’s not going anywhere and we

431
00:19:37,840 –> 00:19:40,120
Speaker 4: can’t be prisoners of the moment of one game. Because

432
00:19:40,440 –> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 4: I have some fun numbers for you. So, the Chiefs

433
00:19:43,200 –> 00:19:45,520
Speaker 4: have the most total wins for any team in a

434
00:19:45,560 –> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 4: seven year span in NFL history since Mahomes took over.

435
00:19:49,480 –> 00:19:52,240
Speaker 4: The next best team in that span is Buffalo in

436
00:19:52,280 –> 00:19:54,679
Speaker 4: this particular span where Mahomes has been playing, and the

437
00:19:54,720 –> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 4: Chiefs have twenty three more wins than Buffalo. That’s the

438
00:19:57,720 –> 00:20:01,080
Speaker 4: same gap between the Bills and the fourteenth ranked team

439
00:20:01,440 –> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 4: in that time. More context, the Chiefs winning percentage and

440
00:20:04,600 –> 00:20:06,040
Speaker 4: that time is seven to eighty one.

441
00:20:06,880 –> 00:20:07,320
Speaker 3: All right.

442
00:20:07,520 –> 00:20:09,120
Speaker 4: The two thousand and one to two thousand and seven

443
00:20:09,119 –> 00:20:11,200
Speaker 4: Patriots was seven to seventy five.

444
00:20:11,520 –> 00:20:12,280
Speaker 3: We think about that.

445
00:20:12,280 –> 00:20:14,840
Speaker 4: Team like they were just unbeatable because they were, well,

446
00:20:14,840 –> 00:20:16,920
Speaker 4: the Chiefs have been better. The eighty three to eighty

447
00:20:17,000 –> 00:20:20,240
Speaker 4: nine forty nine Ers of Joe Montana seven forty, the

448
00:20:20,320 –> 00:20:24,000
Speaker 4: ninety one to ninety six Cowboys seven thirty nine, and

449
00:20:24,040 –> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 4: this is my favorite one. And this is why I

450
00:20:26,640 –> 00:20:29,320
Speaker 4: think what happened in the Super Bowl was the most

451
00:20:29,359 –> 00:20:32,440
Speaker 4: surprising outcome of anything. I mean, if you told me

452
00:20:32,440 –> 00:20:34,040
Speaker 4: the Chiefs are going to lose by double digits in

453
00:20:34,080 –> 00:20:36,520
Speaker 4: the Super Bowl, I wouldn’t believe you because it doesn’t happen.

454
00:20:36,920 –> 00:20:39,639
Speaker 4: Because Mahomes is lost by more than one score just

455
00:20:39,760 –> 00:20:42,760
Speaker 4: six times in one hundred and thirty three career games.

456
00:20:43,720 –> 00:20:45,040
Speaker 3: Can you guess them? Do you know what they are?

457
00:20:45,480 –> 00:20:45,640
Speaker 2: Like?

458
00:20:45,680 –> 00:20:49,680
Speaker 1: I said, I’ve had time, I’d go through these Tennessee yep,

459
00:20:49,800 –> 00:20:52,920
Speaker 1: on the Road twenty four to three, Super Bowl fifty five,

460
00:20:52,960 –> 00:20:56,520
Speaker 1: and Super Bowl fifty nine verse three. He did not

461
00:20:56,600 –> 00:20:59,080
Speaker 1: play in the game against the Steelers in sixteen, which

462
00:20:59,119 –> 00:21:01,040
Speaker 1: is the only to blow up that I can think of.

463
00:21:01,160 –> 00:21:03,760
Speaker 2: Right up the hand, I can tell.

464
00:21:04,000 –> 00:21:06,240
Speaker 1: Bill’s Bill’s home game, the rain game we had the

465
00:21:06,320 –> 00:21:10,320
Speaker 1: Royals in the booth. Yep, there’s four. I got two more.

466
00:21:11,760 –> 00:21:13,320
Speaker 3: One this year and one last year.

467
00:21:14,000 –> 00:21:15,000
Speaker 2: Won this year.

468
00:21:15,680 –> 00:21:19,359
Speaker 1: Oh well, technically span it’s not OK because we lost

469
00:21:19,440 –> 00:21:20,440
Speaker 1: by nine points.

470
00:21:20,520 –> 00:21:23,639
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then last year Denver that weird game in

471
00:21:23,680 –> 00:21:25,920
Speaker 4: Denver when he was sick all night so he threw

472
00:21:26,000 –> 00:21:29,720
Speaker 4: up all six times the Mahomes is lost by more

473
00:21:29,760 –> 00:21:32,920
Speaker 4: than one score. So Josh Allen has lost eleven games

474
00:21:32,960 –> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 4: by more than one score and nine fewer career games

475
00:21:35,400 –> 00:21:38,240
Speaker 4: than Mahomes. Joe Burrow has lost ten and half of

476
00:21:38,240 –> 00:21:40,800
Speaker 4: the career games of Mahomes. Joe and Hurts has lost

477
00:21:40,800 –> 00:21:43,080
Speaker 4: fifteen games by more than one score in his career,

478
00:21:43,560 –> 00:21:45,920
Speaker 4: and through their first one hundred and thirty games, Tom

479
00:21:45,960 –> 00:21:49,040
Speaker 4: Brady lost by more than one score sixteen times, Joe

480
00:21:49,119 –> 00:21:53,399
Speaker 4: Montana eighteen times, and Peyton Manning twenty five times. Again,

481
00:21:53,440 –> 00:21:55,720
Speaker 4: Mahomes has lost by more than one score just six

482
00:21:55,760 –> 00:21:58,720
Speaker 4: times and one hundred and thirty three career games. Does

483
00:21:58,720 –> 00:22:01,080
Speaker 4: it stink that just happened in the Super Bowl? Yeah,

484
00:22:01,119 –> 00:22:04,840
Speaker 4: But the point is this doesn’t happen very often. Almost

485
00:22:04,920 –> 00:22:07,880
Speaker 4: every single time that Patrick Mahomes takes the field, Almost

486
00:22:07,920 –> 00:22:10,440
Speaker 4: every single time you are in the game at the end,

487
00:22:10,680 –> 00:22:12,920
Speaker 4: you might not win. You probably will though, and it’ll

488
00:22:12,960 –> 00:22:15,639
Speaker 4: be close and you’ll have a chance. And I’m sorry

489
00:22:15,640 –> 00:22:17,880
Speaker 4: that guy isn’t going anywhere because he has an entire

490
00:22:17,920 –> 00:22:20,199
Speaker 4: body of work that shows that he’s going to be

491
00:22:20,240 –> 00:22:22,600
Speaker 4: in just about every single game he plays. And I’ll

492
00:22:22,600 –> 00:22:24,400
Speaker 4: tell you what, even when the Chiefs were done twenty

493
00:22:24,440 –> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 4: four to nothing, I thought we were gonna win just

494
00:22:26,760 –> 00:22:28,720
Speaker 4: because of what I’ve seen over the course of his career.

495
00:22:29,119 –> 00:22:31,640
Speaker 4: So it didn’t work out in Super Bowl fifty nine.

496
00:22:31,720 –> 00:22:35,439
Speaker 4: It stinks, but we’ve seen for almost a decade that

497
00:22:35,520 –> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes, when coach read is here and Brett Veach

498
00:22:38,840 –> 00:22:42,200
Speaker 4: is greeting the roster, they’re in almost every single game.

499
00:22:42,359 –> 00:22:44,680
Speaker 4: No other team can say that really in NFL history.

500
00:22:44,680 –> 00:22:46,399
Speaker 4: It’s what I’m trying to say, and that’s why I

501
00:22:46,400 –> 00:22:48,240
Speaker 4: feel good about our chances next year, no matter what.

502
00:22:48,520 –> 00:22:50,640
Speaker 1: He’s been down twenty four to nothing before and won

503
00:22:50,680 –> 00:22:52,760
Speaker 1: the game. That’s what you’re thinking of. I guess Houston

504
00:22:52,800 –> 00:22:54,880
Speaker 1: in the divisional playoff game in twenty nineteen.

505
00:22:55,400 –> 00:22:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah.

506
00:22:55,720 –> 00:22:59,960
Speaker 1: So we’re talking here on this podcast about auditing assets,

507
00:23:00,840 –> 00:23:05,600
Speaker 1: and we’ve given you infrastructure the second one. And we’ll

508
00:23:05,640 –> 00:23:07,560
Speaker 1: try to go a little quicker here, but this is

509
00:23:07,640 –> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: handling flashpoints. This to me is Andy Reid’s greatest characteristic

510
00:23:13,800 –> 00:23:17,600
Speaker 1: of so many. We know how innovative v is offensively,

511
00:23:18,359 –> 00:23:21,480
Speaker 1: we know he’s wicked smart, He likes to play the

512
00:23:21,880 –> 00:23:25,600
Speaker 1: you know, bumble rooskie, take my French fries and take

513
00:23:25,640 –> 00:23:28,480
Speaker 1: my chicken nuggets and stuff. But the guy is brilliant.

514
00:23:28,760 –> 00:23:31,840
Speaker 1: He’s un He could be CEO of any company in

515
00:23:31,920 –> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: the Chiefs Kingdom or in the country. He’s brilliant. But

516
00:23:35,800 –> 00:23:39,919
Speaker 1: he handles flashpoints. This is a flashpoint for the Kansas

517
00:23:39,960 –> 00:23:42,800
Speaker 1: City Chiefs to get beat forty to twenty two and

518
00:23:42,840 –> 00:23:44,919
Speaker 1: to get late scores to make it even that close

519
00:23:45,080 –> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 1: against the team that’s really good, but the team he

520
00:23:48,040 –> 00:23:50,840
Speaker 1: used to coach, and the team he beat in Super

521
00:23:50,880 –> 00:23:56,440
Speaker 1: Bowl fifty seven. But to put everything into the trying

522
00:23:56,480 –> 00:23:59,240
Speaker 1: to get the three peat and then losing that game

523
00:23:59,280 –> 00:24:01,760
Speaker 1: and getting hand in that game. Let’s be honest. He

524
00:24:01,880 –> 00:24:04,840
Speaker 1: is a flashpoint. But we can go through. We’ll go

525
00:24:04,880 –> 00:24:08,159
Speaker 1: through these really quickly. Every year Andy Reid has been

526
00:24:08,200 –> 00:24:10,000
Speaker 1: the head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, there have

527
00:24:10,080 –> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: been major flashpoints. You have forgotten and coach and I

528
00:24:15,040 –> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 1: can think of about four times, four or five times

529
00:24:18,200 –> 00:24:20,439
Speaker 1: that we’ve been in this realm and he’ll look at

530
00:24:20,480 –> 00:24:22,320
Speaker 1: me right in the eyes and he’ll go, I’ll fix it.

531
00:24:23,160 –> 00:24:25,399
Speaker 1: That’s all I mean. He’ll go, I’ll fix it. And

532
00:24:25,560 –> 00:24:28,160
Speaker 1: I’ll go okay, and he does.

533
00:24:28,440 –> 00:24:28,800
Speaker 2: Yeah.

534
00:24:28,880 –> 00:24:31,840
Speaker 1: So let’s start twenty thirteen, the loss to the Colts.

535
00:24:32,280 –> 00:24:36,119
Speaker 1: It was a debacle in that playoff game, and you’re thinking, well,

536
00:24:36,359 –> 00:24:38,359
Speaker 1: nice year ago nine to zero on the start, but

537
00:24:38,760 –> 00:24:41,200
Speaker 1: now what because that’s a flashpoint. Then to come back

538
00:24:41,480 –> 00:24:43,400
Speaker 1: and have a winning year every year since his one.

539
00:24:43,440 –> 00:24:45,080
Speaker 1: I know you’re gonna have the even number years. I

540
00:24:45,080 –> 00:24:47,800
Speaker 1: got the odd number years. But just listen to this

541
00:24:47,840 –> 00:24:49,400
Speaker 1: because this is the stuff you have forgotten.

542
00:24:49,560 –> 00:24:50,280
Speaker 3: We’ll never figured.

543
00:24:50,320 –> 00:24:53,159
Speaker 4: After that Colts loss in twenty thirteen, I just was

544
00:24:53,200 –> 00:24:55,280
Speaker 4: so distraught and my dad looked at me. He’s like,

545
00:24:55,359 –> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 4: he’s got to get a grip, and I was like,

546
00:24:58,400 –> 00:25:00,240
Speaker 4: I just want to see the teams win a playoff game.

547
00:25:00,760 –> 00:25:02,480
Speaker 2: And he lost his laptop.

548
00:25:02,560 –> 00:25:05,359
Speaker 4: He did, yeah, and the Chiefs have figured it out

549
00:25:05,400 –> 00:25:07,840
Speaker 4: in the time since twenty fourteen. I remember this just

550
00:25:07,920 –> 00:25:10,840
Speaker 4: a fan. I drove and met my friend. I went

551
00:25:10,840 –> 00:25:12,760
Speaker 4: to Missoo, my buddy went to KU. We met in

552
00:25:12,800 –> 00:25:15,320
Speaker 4: the middle in Kansas City and went to that first

553
00:25:15,359 –> 00:25:18,040
Speaker 4: game in twenty fourteen against the Titans and Titans were

554
00:25:18,080 –> 00:25:21,960
Speaker 4: not good and uh we went to two Mike DeVito

555
00:25:22,040 –> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 4: and Derry Johnson both poor their Achilles. We weren’t good

556
00:25:25,840 –> 00:25:27,639
Speaker 4: in that game we lost, We were one of their

557
00:25:27,680 –> 00:25:30,960
Speaker 4: two wins. It wasn’t fun. We started zero to two

558
00:25:31,280 –> 00:25:33,560
Speaker 4: and we had the Peyton manning Broncos in the division.

559
00:25:33,960 –> 00:25:35,919
Speaker 4: Wasn’t looking great, but still found a way to be

560
00:25:35,960 –> 00:25:38,560
Speaker 4: in a position i’d to have a chance at the postseason.

561
00:25:38,640 –> 00:25:39,320
Speaker 3: Didn’t make it.

562
00:25:39,600 –> 00:25:41,600
Speaker 4: But it’s funny we look back on twenty fourteen as

563
00:25:41,640 –> 00:25:43,720
Speaker 4: being like this, Ah, that’s the year that we weren’t

564
00:25:43,800 –> 00:25:44,200
Speaker 4: very good.

565
00:25:44,240 –> 00:25:45,840
Speaker 3: Well, still finished nine and seven.

566
00:25:46,400 –> 00:25:48,800
Speaker 4: I mean, that’s the worst mark for Coach read here

567
00:25:48,800 –> 00:25:52,000
Speaker 4: in Kansas City and overcome a lot of adversity to

568
00:25:52,080 –> 00:25:54,720
Speaker 4: get that nine and seven records, So still an impressive record,

569
00:25:54,720 –> 00:25:55,760
Speaker 4: I’d say, looking back at.

570
00:25:55,680 –> 00:25:59,480
Speaker 1: It, Alex Smith lacerated spleen against the Steelers and yet

571
00:25:59,600 –> 00:26:02,800
Speaker 1: still went record twenty fifteen That year started one and five,

572
00:26:03,280 –> 00:26:05,560
Speaker 1: one in five, Well, doesn’t look like it’s going to

573
00:26:05,600 –> 00:26:08,159
Speaker 1: work in Kansas City. I remember seeing Coach drive his

574
00:26:08,280 –> 00:26:10,560
Speaker 1: pickup by me. I just happened to be in the car,

575
00:26:10,680 –> 00:26:12,520
Speaker 1: kind of staring at the steering wheel like I do

576
00:26:12,600 –> 00:26:15,840
Speaker 1: a lot, and his pickup drives by me, and I’m

577
00:26:15,880 –> 00:26:19,240
Speaker 1: like all right, and on long after that we’re getting

578
00:26:19,240 –> 00:26:21,680
Speaker 1: ready to go to London to play the Allions. He goes,

579
00:26:21,720 –> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 1: I’ll fix it, I’ll fix this. Well, we had just

580
00:26:24,400 –> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: beaten the Steelers. That’s when he drove by so out

581
00:26:27,080 –> 00:26:29,120
Speaker 1: to two and five, win ten straight games into first

582
00:26:29,160 –> 00:26:33,240
Speaker 1: playoff victory in twenty one seasons, that’s what happened. He

583
00:26:33,280 –> 00:26:36,800
Speaker 1: fixed it. Twenty sixteen. Got to look a little harder

584
00:26:36,800 –> 00:26:37,880
Speaker 1: in this one, but it’s still there.

585
00:26:37,960 –> 00:26:39,960
Speaker 4: I’m glad you say that though, And earlier you mentioned

586
00:26:39,960 –> 00:26:42,560
Speaker 4: how we’ve kind of forgotten about a lot of these flashpoints.

587
00:26:42,600 –> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 4: There’s big ones that are obvious. But I think we

588
00:26:45,160 –> 00:26:47,080
Speaker 4: look at twenty sixteen and we’re like, oh, yeah, I

589
00:26:47,119 –> 00:26:50,480
Speaker 4: won the division. Just we’re really good all season, no problem.

590
00:26:50,640 –> 00:26:53,119
Speaker 4: Well we started two and two and got clobbered by

591
00:26:53,119 –> 00:26:57,120
Speaker 4: the Steelers, just absolutely clobbered. We finished ten and two

592
00:26:57,119 –> 00:26:59,520
Speaker 4: the rest of the way. We won that big game

593
00:26:59,560 –> 00:27:02,200
Speaker 4: on third to night Football against the Raiders. People forget

594
00:27:02,200 –> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 4: the Raiders are really good. Then we’re twelve and four,

595
00:27:04,160 –> 00:27:06,440
Speaker 4: like Derek Carr was like an MVP candidate that year,

596
00:27:06,800 –> 00:27:07,760
Speaker 4: and we won that game.

597
00:27:08,880 –> 00:27:11,199
Speaker 3: Derek Johnson got hurt in that game. That was a bummer.

598
00:27:11,240 –> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 4: But another flashpoint and find a way to win the division.

599
00:27:14,560 –> 00:27:16,560
Speaker 4: And we’ve done nothing but win the division since.

600
00:27:16,640 –> 00:27:17,320
Speaker 3: You got to start.

601
00:27:17,400 –> 00:27:19,359
Speaker 4: If you have a division title streak, it’s got to

602
00:27:19,400 –> 00:27:22,199
Speaker 4: start sometime, and it started in twenty sixteen. And if

603
00:27:22,200 –> 00:27:24,240
Speaker 4: I told you that in Week four, didn’t always look

604
00:27:24,280 –> 00:27:25,679
Speaker 4: that way. So that was an impressive year.

605
00:27:25,840 –> 00:27:29,560
Speaker 1: People, we would just all forget it. Twenty seventeen a

606
00:27:29,680 –> 00:27:34,120
Speaker 1: one in six stretch, one in six stretch, and that’s

607
00:27:34,160 –> 00:27:36,520
Speaker 1: when Marcus Peters has taken off his shoes and socks

608
00:27:36,520 –> 00:27:40,080
Speaker 1: in New York. Right, that was a rough stretch. Coach

609
00:27:40,119 –> 00:27:43,080
Speaker 1: looks at me and goes, I’ll fix it. We won

610
00:27:43,119 –> 00:27:45,080
Speaker 1: the last four games of the year, win back to

611
00:27:45,160 –> 00:27:48,080
Speaker 1: back division titles, which you remember, Oh my gosh, we

612
00:27:48,160 –> 00:27:50,280
Speaker 1: just won the AFC West back to back. It’s a

613
00:27:50,320 –> 00:27:52,880
Speaker 1: huge deal, huge deal. We beat Miami on a cold

614
00:27:53,040 –> 00:27:55,440
Speaker 1: Christmas eve Dale and he fixes it.

615
00:27:55,840 –> 00:27:57,920
Speaker 2: I’ll fix it. He fixed it. Twenty eighteen.

616
00:27:58,359 –> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 4: Twenty eighteen had some struggles on defense, so we lost

617
00:28:01,760 –> 00:28:04,439
Speaker 4: games in which we scored fifty one points, forty points,

618
00:28:04,480 –> 00:28:07,440
Speaker 4: thirty one points, and twenty eight points. Still came within

619
00:28:07,480 –> 00:28:10,280
Speaker 4: a play of going to the Super Bowl. You know,

620
00:28:10,320 –> 00:28:13,119
Speaker 4: I looked back at that twenty eighteen championship game against

621
00:28:13,119 –> 00:28:16,399
Speaker 4: the Patriots. There’s been so many playoff games in the

622
00:28:16,440 –> 00:28:19,400
Speaker 4: time since, and frankly so much success that I’ve kind

623
00:28:19,400 –> 00:28:21,640
Speaker 4: of just forgotten about the nitty gritty of it. Besides

624
00:28:21,760 –> 00:28:25,960
Speaker 4: like the obvious stuff. Crazy game like we scored twenty

625
00:28:25,960 –> 00:28:28,240
Speaker 4: four points in the fourth quarter, like pat caught the

626
00:28:28,240 –> 00:28:30,119
Speaker 4: ball back of thirty nine seconds left and tied it.

627
00:28:30,359 –> 00:28:34,080
Speaker 4: I mean, just crazy, crazy game. To have the struggles

628
00:28:34,080 –> 00:28:36,639
Speaker 4: we did defensively that year and to still find a

629
00:28:36,680 –> 00:28:39,800
Speaker 4: way to be that close is cool, and it shows

630
00:28:39,840 –> 00:28:42,400
Speaker 4: how we built on it after that year. It wasn’t like, ah,

631
00:28:42,440 –> 00:28:44,120
Speaker 4: that was our chance. It’s like now, that was just

632
00:28:44,200 –> 00:28:46,280
Speaker 4: kind of announcing the new Chiefs to the league. But

633
00:28:46,800 –> 00:28:48,960
Speaker 4: again adversity. I mean, you lose a game that you

634
00:28:49,000 –> 00:28:51,200
Speaker 4: score fifty one points in, you don’t feel great about it.

635
00:28:51,480 –> 00:28:53,360
Speaker 4: But the Chiefs were still that close to getting back

636
00:28:53,400 –> 00:28:54,080
Speaker 4: to the Super Bowl.

637
00:28:54,240 –> 00:28:56,520
Speaker 2: And ooh, the Colts. The Colts in the playoffs.

638
00:28:56,560 –> 00:28:59,720
Speaker 1: You can’t be ever, ooh yeah, Colts thirty eight to

639
00:28:59,720 –> 00:29:05,200
Speaker 1: third twenty nineteen, twenty nineteen, the glorious Super Bowl fifty

640
00:29:05,200 –> 00:29:07,719
Speaker 1: four championship, losing three of four in October. I can

641
00:29:07,800 –> 00:29:10,480
Speaker 1: see it as if it was yesterday. Pat gets hurt,

642
00:29:10,560 –> 00:29:14,800
Speaker 1: dislocated kneecamp in Denver. Matt Moore’s got to play. I’ll

643
00:29:14,800 –> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 1: fix it, Coach says, I’ll fix it. We fix it.

644
00:29:18,120 –> 00:29:20,840
Speaker 1: We win against the Chargers in Mexico City and never

645
00:29:20,880 –> 00:29:24,160
Speaker 1: lose again and win the first Super Bowl in fifty years.

646
00:29:23,960 –> 00:29:26,760
Speaker 1: It’s time and time again. Coach fixes it. And in

647
00:29:26,800 –> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 1: twenty twenty, his leadership was tested with COVID, and twenty

648
00:29:31,400 –> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 1: twenty had its own challenges.

649
00:29:33,000 –> 00:29:35,479
Speaker 4: I mean tons of challenges. Looking back with the COVID season,

650
00:29:35,920 –> 00:29:37,920
Speaker 4: that’s incredible. The league got through that the way that

651
00:29:37,960 –> 00:29:40,520
Speaker 4: they did. You talked about it earlier. I mean we

652
00:29:40,520 –> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 4: were like living in like lockdown. I was going through

653
00:29:43,520 –> 00:29:45,400
Speaker 4: my desk the other day looking at some old stuff

654
00:29:45,400 –> 00:29:48,479
Speaker 4: and found my Tier one badge, Like don’t lose your

655
00:29:48,520 –> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 4: Tier one badge, you know, and got to like do

656
00:29:52,160 –> 00:29:54,880
Speaker 4: your health check every day before you go in. Just crazy.

657
00:29:54,920 –> 00:29:57,560
Speaker 4: And the things the players got through. We lost Mitchell

658
00:29:57,600 –> 00:30:01,160
Speaker 4: Schwartz in Week six, colecci as simile Week five. Still

659
00:30:01,160 –> 00:30:03,960
Speaker 4: want sixteen and three beat a Bills team that year

660
00:30:03,960 –> 00:30:06,040
Speaker 4: that have won eight straight and won seven of them

661
00:30:06,040 –> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 4: by double digits and again, there’s so many parallels between

662
00:30:10,600 –> 00:30:13,320
Speaker 4: the twenty twenty season and the twenty twenty four season,

663
00:30:13,920 –> 00:30:16,680
Speaker 4: and that twenty twenty team was one of the best

664
00:30:16,680 –> 00:30:20,080
Speaker 4: in team history despite all the circumstances, and it’s a

665
00:30:20,080 –> 00:30:23,040
Speaker 4: bummer we don’t really remember them because it ended the

666
00:30:23,040 –> 00:30:24,880
Speaker 4: way that it did. And it’s kind of similar to

667
00:30:24,880 –> 00:30:27,640
Speaker 4: Super Bowl fifty nine. Just wasn’t our night. In super

668
00:30:27,680 –> 00:30:30,320
Speaker 4: Bowl fifty five, it was the Bucks Night, and I’m

669
00:30:30,320 –> 00:30:32,360
Speaker 4: not sure anybody would have beaten the Bucks in that game.

670
00:30:32,800 –> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 4: But still, now that we have all this hindsight looking

671
00:30:35,320 –> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 4: back at that year, incredible ability to overcome adversity by

672
00:30:40,280 –> 00:30:42,200
Speaker 4: the Chiefs throughout that entire season, and.

673
00:30:42,160 –> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: In twenty one it was like, oh, they’re not gonna

674
00:30:44,400 –> 00:30:46,160
Speaker 1: be any good. Like it’s all they just got blown

675
00:30:46,160 –> 00:30:48,680
Speaker 1: out in the Super Bowl and whoop. And after a

676
00:30:48,760 –> 00:30:51,480
Speaker 1: one and two start. People forget that we started one

677
00:30:51,480 –> 00:30:53,840
Speaker 1: and two and three and four and three and four.

678
00:30:54,360 –> 00:30:56,760
Speaker 1: Then twenty twenty one people like that was just roses

679
00:30:56,760 –> 00:30:59,000
Speaker 1: and candy canes all the way to the AFC Championship Game.

680
00:30:59,080 –> 00:31:02,120
Speaker 1: It was not i’ll coach, I’ll fix it, I’ll fix it.

681
00:31:02,720 –> 00:31:04,280
Speaker 1: We go on a run, we get all the way

682
00:31:04,280 –> 00:31:08,440
Speaker 1: to the AFC Championship Game again, to do it four

683
00:31:08,480 –> 00:31:10,880
Speaker 1: years in a row unthinkable, to use your analogy of

684
00:31:10,920 –> 00:31:12,840
Speaker 1: going back in twenty twelve and saying would that be

685
00:31:12,920 –> 00:31:15,400
Speaker 1: the case, and so to recover from that, to get

686
00:31:15,400 –> 00:31:17,960
Speaker 1: all the way to the AFC Championship Game only to

687
00:31:18,000 –> 00:31:20,480
Speaker 1: lose an overtime and after being up twenty one to ten,

688
00:31:20,600 –> 00:31:22,720
Speaker 1: could have been up twenty four to ten. That could

689
00:31:22,720 –> 00:31:26,480
Speaker 1: have been very different. So twenty two, the world’s gonna end,

690
00:31:26,520 –> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill’s gone, Oh my gosh, the Chiefs are done.

691
00:31:29,600 –> 00:31:31,280
Speaker 2: They’re going to go one in sixteen.

692
00:31:32,280 –> 00:31:35,520
Speaker 4: I can’t forget about the numerous people around the league

693
00:31:35,600 –> 00:31:38,400
Speaker 4: publicly saying like, oh, yeah, they’re done, Chiefs are done.

694
00:31:38,480 –> 00:31:40,960
Speaker 4: That’s why when there’s that conversation right now. I went

695
00:31:41,000 –> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 4: back and watched our DTK in March of I guess

696
00:31:44,480 –> 00:31:47,640
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two after the twenty twenty one AFC Championship Game,

697
00:31:47,920 –> 00:31:50,240
Speaker 4: and yeah, there were a lot of people saying like,

698
00:31:50,320 –> 00:31:50,920
Speaker 4: Chiefs are done.

699
00:31:50,960 –> 00:31:52,560
Speaker 3: Chiefs are done. Well not quite.

700
00:31:53,200 –> 00:31:55,920
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes when’s the MVP that year and sets the

701
00:31:56,040 –> 00:31:58,880
Speaker 4: NFL record for total offense by a single player, and

702
00:31:58,880 –> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 4: the Chiefs.

703
00:31:59,280 –> 00:32:01,200
Speaker 3: You know, when the Super Bowl so pretty good.

704
00:32:01,440 –> 00:32:04,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, and lose to the Colts, Like, oh wow, lost

705
00:32:04,360 –> 00:32:07,400
Speaker 2: to the Coles the Bills. Bess was, oh my gosh,

706
00:32:07,480 –> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 2: it’s all over.

707
00:32:08,160 –> 00:32:11,240
Speaker 4: But then, I mean, listen, if I’m ranking my non

708
00:32:11,480 –> 00:32:15,960
Speaker 4: Super Bowl favorite Chiefs memories, the AFC Championship went over

709
00:32:15,960 –> 00:32:18,560
Speaker 4: the Bengals in twenty twenty two is like the very

710
00:32:18,640 –> 00:32:21,640
Speaker 4: top of the list for so many reasons, Like, I mean.

711
00:32:21,560 –> 00:32:23,960
Speaker 3: I’ve told Ellie this before. I’m like, Ellie, that was

712
00:32:23,960 –> 00:32:25,200
Speaker 3: like one of the best days of my life. And

713
00:32:25,240 –> 00:32:27,600
Speaker 3: she’s like, just don’t don’t tell me that. I’m like,

714
00:32:27,640 –> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 3: I’m sorry, it was so great.

715
00:32:28,880 –> 00:32:29,600
Speaker 2: Your wedding day.

716
00:32:29,880 –> 00:32:33,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, she’s beating the Bengals that title game.

717
00:32:33,560 –> 00:32:37,000
Speaker 1: And that was the bust out of the doubt, dislike disrespect, just.

718
00:32:36,960 –> 00:32:41,080
Speaker 3: Kick Kels on stage talking about the mayor stuff.

719
00:32:41,240 –> 00:32:44,360
Speaker 1: Oh my gosh, twenty twenty three. This is a recent memory,

720
00:32:44,400 –> 00:32:47,000
Speaker 1: so you’re gonna remember these. But the six losses that year,

721
00:32:47,080 –> 00:32:49,080
Speaker 1: the loss on Christmas Day kind of felt like the

722
00:32:49,080 –> 00:32:52,920
Speaker 1: Super Bowl fifty nine game. Aidan O’Connell’s quarterback and does

723
00:32:52,960 –> 00:32:56,080
Speaker 1: not complete a pass for three quarters and the Chiefs

724
00:32:56,160 –> 00:32:59,360
Speaker 1: lose that game. A relentless pass rush by the Raiders

725
00:33:00,040 –> 00:33:03,040
Speaker 1: Malcolm Koons of course Max Crosby Chiefs lose. Looks like

726
00:33:03,080 –> 00:33:06,120
Speaker 1: it’s all over covered in cole dust. Wait a minute,

727
00:33:06,280 –> 00:33:08,400
Speaker 1: back to back Super Bowl champions for the first time

728
00:33:08,440 –> 00:33:11,880
Speaker 1: in six nine and forty four days. And then this year,

729
00:33:12,200 –> 00:33:14,560
Speaker 1: we lose track of this year and how much this

730
00:33:14,640 –> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: team had to overcome.

731
00:33:15,640 –> 00:33:16,440
Speaker 3: All the injuries.

732
00:33:16,520 –> 00:33:19,200
Speaker 4: I mean, losing Hollywood on the first play of the preseason.

733
00:33:19,200 –> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 4: Hollywood was going to have a huge year, gets hurt

734
00:33:21,240 –> 00:33:24,480
Speaker 4: first play of the preseason, losing Marashie in week four

735
00:33:24,960 –> 00:33:26,880
Speaker 4: or she was on pace for like two thousand yards,

736
00:33:27,160 –> 00:33:29,360
Speaker 4: I mean, just the go to guy in the offense

737
00:33:29,440 –> 00:33:32,240
Speaker 4: and gets hurt in week four and it stinks. Lose

738
00:33:32,280 –> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 4: Pacheco after week two and Patrick Mahomes again still went

739
00:33:36,400 –> 00:33:40,520
Speaker 4: seventeen and one with this team until the Super Bowl,

740
00:33:40,720 –> 00:33:42,720
Speaker 4: and the only team he lost to he beat when

741
00:33:42,720 –> 00:33:45,440
Speaker 4: it counted in Buffalo. His team still made history. He

742
00:33:45,480 –> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 4: found a way to get back to the Super Bowl

743
00:33:47,040 –> 00:33:49,200
Speaker 4: for a third straight year, becoming the first team in

744
00:33:49,240 –> 00:33:51,880
Speaker 4: league history to win back to back Super Bowls and

745
00:33:51,960 –> 00:33:54,520
Speaker 4: even get back to the Super Bowl for a chance

746
00:33:54,560 –> 00:33:58,040
Speaker 4: to do a three peat. I mean, truly, it’s a bummer,

747
00:33:58,080 –> 00:34:01,640
Speaker 4: because when you lose in the context of history, it’s

748
00:34:01,640 –> 00:34:04,560
Speaker 4: easy to forget this. But this run is one of

749
00:34:04,600 –> 00:34:07,400
Speaker 4: the greatest, if not the greatest, of all time, and

750
00:34:07,840 –> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 4: again we’re right in the middle of it. Going through

751
00:34:10,040 –> 00:34:12,440
Speaker 4: all these games is to show, or all these seasons

752
00:34:12,480 –> 00:34:15,520
Speaker 4: is to show that there’s always been some kind of adversity.

753
00:34:15,560 –> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 4: There’s always been something, There’s always been someone saying, hey,

754
00:34:18,080 –> 00:34:22,440
Speaker 4: the Chiefs are done. In every single year this team

755
00:34:22,920 –> 00:34:24,919
Speaker 4: has found a way to say, no, we’re not. And

756
00:34:26,080 –> 00:34:28,960
Speaker 4: we’ll keep talking about like rebounding after bad Super Bowl losses.

757
00:34:29,120 –> 00:34:30,600
Speaker 3: I have some more stuff for you about that.

758
00:34:30,680 –> 00:34:34,799
Speaker 4: But still, again, you just cannot understate how this team

759
00:34:34,880 –> 00:34:37,799
Speaker 4: has shown a resolve over the years that hey, no

760
00:34:37,800 –> 00:34:41,000
Speaker 4: matter what’s going on, no matter the circumstances, we’re actually

761
00:34:41,680 –> 00:34:45,360
Speaker 4: excited about the challenge. Like that stinks what happened, but

762
00:34:45,400 –> 00:34:47,960
Speaker 4: we’re excited to prove you wrong. And once again, I

763
00:34:48,000 –> 00:34:49,520
Speaker 4: think that’s going to be the case this time around.

764
00:34:49,760 –> 00:34:52,240
Speaker 1: I just wish all of you that are either viewing

765
00:34:52,360 –> 00:34:56,359
Speaker 1: or watching or watching or listening to this episode could

766
00:34:56,400 –> 00:34:58,600
Speaker 1: see Andy Reid’s face the times I’ve seen it where

767
00:34:58,640 –> 00:35:00,440
Speaker 1: he’s just looked at me and said I’ll fix it.

768
00:35:01,120 –> 00:35:03,720
Speaker 1: And we have just given you every year that Andy

769
00:35:03,760 –> 00:35:06,640
Speaker 1: Reid has been here that he has fixed it, so

770
00:35:06,880 –> 00:35:09,800
Speaker 1: we have every bit of confidence that he will fix

771
00:35:09,840 –> 00:35:13,279
Speaker 1: it going into twenty twenty five. Now we’ll close on

772
00:35:13,320 –> 00:35:16,479
Speaker 1: this one just because, and we’re going to save our

773
00:35:17,200 –> 00:35:19,560
Speaker 1: other asset for a later episode, the ones that we

774
00:35:19,680 –> 00:35:22,920
Speaker 1: like the most of what they’re kind of tricky and

775
00:35:23,080 –> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 1: a little bit off the normal thinking of fans. But

776
00:35:26,600 –> 00:35:29,080
Speaker 1: we are going to give you this one as we close,

777
00:35:29,239 –> 00:35:31,440
Speaker 1: and that is, Oh, you get blown out of the

778
00:35:31,440 –> 00:35:33,000
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, that means.

779
00:35:32,800 –> 00:35:33,920
Speaker 2: Your life is over.

780
00:35:35,360 –> 00:35:38,719
Speaker 1: The top five super Bowl blowouts went back and looked

781
00:35:38,719 –> 00:35:43,440
Speaker 1: at those five. Three of those five won their division

782
00:35:44,000 –> 00:35:47,680
Speaker 1: the following year after getting blown out the nineteen eighty

783
00:35:47,680 –> 00:35:49,960
Speaker 1: six Pats who had to play the eighty five Bears

784
00:35:49,960 –> 00:35:53,279
Speaker 1: and got wiped out. Steve Grogan from Ottawa, Kansas, Case

785
00:35:53,320 –> 00:35:57,240
Speaker 1: Stater got wiped out by the eighty five Bears, whoops.

786
00:35:56,880 –> 00:35:58,400
Speaker 2: Came back and won the division.

787
00:35:58,520 –> 00:36:02,480
Speaker 1: In nineteen eighty six, the ninety three Bills lost the

788
00:36:02,520 –> 00:36:06,480
Speaker 1: Super Bowl, came back and won their division. The AFC

789
00:36:06,520 –> 00:36:08,720
Speaker 1: East got all the way back to the Super Bowl,

790
00:36:09,000 –> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 1: beat the Chiefs in the AFC championship game, they went

791
00:36:11,440 –> 00:36:15,120
Speaker 1: twelve and four. Oh, Denver got blown out, they got destroyed.

792
00:36:15,640 –> 00:36:16,120
Speaker 2: Whoops.

793
00:36:16,200 –> 00:36:19,640
Speaker 1: Came back and won the division in twenty fourteen with

794
00:36:19,719 –> 00:36:21,960
Speaker 1: a twelve and four record, and then won the Super

795
00:36:22,000 –> 00:36:24,080
Speaker 1: Bowl the following year in Peyton Manning’s.

796
00:36:23,760 –> 00:36:25,160
Speaker 2: Final year in Denver.

797
00:36:25,200 –> 00:36:28,520
Speaker 1: So even Bronco fans, you’ve got your own lesson here that, oh,

798
00:36:28,600 –> 00:36:30,520
Speaker 1: super Bowl blowouts mean the end of the earth.

799
00:36:31,120 –> 00:36:32,000
Speaker 2: Not so fast.

800
00:36:32,360 –> 00:36:34,719
Speaker 1: Maybe it means that you just read if you’ve got

801
00:36:34,719 –> 00:36:37,560
Speaker 1: the infrastructure and ways to fix it. We just said,

802
00:36:38,480 –> 00:36:40,960
Speaker 1: you line up to maybe win the division the following year,

803
00:36:40,960 –> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 1: and if the Chiefs do it next year, it will

804
00:36:42,200 –> 00:36:43,080
Speaker 1: be ten straight years.

805
00:36:43,360 –> 00:36:44,839
Speaker 2: But a Super Bowl blowout.

806
00:36:44,520 –> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: Doesn’t mean necessarily that your franchise ends and you shut

807
00:36:47,239 –> 00:36:47,560
Speaker 1: the door.

808
00:36:47,680 –> 00:36:50,600
Speaker 4: Definitely not. And I have kind of an adjacent thought process.

809
00:36:50,760 –> 00:36:53,600
Speaker 4: I looked back at the three playoff losses for the

810
00:36:53,680 –> 00:36:57,080
Speaker 4: Chiefs prior to this one, and it’s in a similar

811
00:36:57,080 –> 00:36:58,960
Speaker 4: sense to what we’ve been talking about, but really kind

812
00:36:58,960 –> 00:37:03,480
Speaker 4: of examining the seasons after those losses. So twenty eighteen,

813
00:37:04,200 –> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 4: the defense, like I was talking about earlier, struggled. I mean,

814
00:37:06,680 –> 00:37:09,279
Speaker 4: we were allowing over four hundred yards per game. Well,

815
00:37:09,280 –> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 4: how did the Chiefs respond after losing the AFC Championship

816
00:37:12,560 –> 00:37:15,000
Speaker 4: game to the Patriots, where just one more stop You’re

817
00:37:15,040 –> 00:37:16,600
Speaker 4: going to the Super Bowl, couldn’t get it done?

818
00:37:16,760 –> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 2: Well?

819
00:37:16,920 –> 00:37:19,439
Speaker 4: How did Brett veach Head to coach Read respond? Well,

820
00:37:19,480 –> 00:37:22,319
Speaker 4: we hire Steve Spagnolo to run the defense. Traded for

821
00:37:22,360 –> 00:37:25,880
Speaker 4: Frank Clark, signed Tyron Matthew, signed by Shot Brielant, drafted

822
00:37:25,880 –> 00:37:29,840
Speaker 4: three defensive players. We saw this defense transform, and really

823
00:37:30,160 –> 00:37:35,040
Speaker 4: the roots of that decision making process, that transformative defense

824
00:37:35,680 –> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 4: is what propelled the Chiefs to a Super Bowl championship

825
00:37:38,040 –> 00:37:40,359
Speaker 4: the following year, got them back to the Super Bowl

826
00:37:40,400 –> 00:37:43,400
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty in Spags, of course, being the defensive

827
00:37:43,400 –> 00:37:45,880
Speaker 4: coordinator all this time. We don’t won the Super Bowl

828
00:37:45,960 –> 00:37:49,400
Speaker 4: in twenty two and twenty three without SPACs telling you

829
00:37:49,400 –> 00:37:52,200
Speaker 4: that right now. So anyway, we saw this team transform

830
00:37:52,360 –> 00:37:56,120
Speaker 4: after a very disappointing loss in twenty eighteen. Similar deal

831
00:37:56,120 –> 00:37:58,400
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty. We all know this one needed to

832
00:37:58,440 –> 00:38:01,319
Speaker 4: rebuild the offensive line. Trick Mahomes running for his life

833
00:38:01,360 –> 00:38:03,920
Speaker 4: in Super Bowl fifty five. Well, what do we do

834
00:38:03,960 –> 00:38:07,160
Speaker 4: in the offseason? Signed Joe Toney, draft Creed Humphrey, draft

835
00:38:07,160 –> 00:38:10,200
Speaker 4: Trey Smith signed Kyle Long. People forget about that too.

836
00:38:10,280 –> 00:38:11,879
Speaker 4: Forget about Kyle Long was going to be a good

837
00:38:11,880 –> 00:38:14,080
Speaker 4: player on this team. But it shows kind of the

838
00:38:14,120 –> 00:38:17,600
Speaker 4: commitment to rebuilding the offensive line. Even though Kyle didn’t

839
00:38:17,600 –> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 4: play a whole lot for US. Kyle Long was brought

840
00:38:19,600 –> 00:38:21,759
Speaker 4: in here to play guard and then he traded for

841
00:38:21,880 –> 00:38:25,320
Speaker 4: Orlando Brown Junior. So Bretvich wasn’t messing around. He said, Okay,

842
00:38:25,320 –> 00:38:27,640
Speaker 4: I saw what happened in this game, saw what happened

843
00:38:27,640 –> 00:38:29,640
Speaker 4: toward the end of the season. We’re going to fix

844
00:38:29,719 –> 00:38:31,600
Speaker 4: this and we’re going to be better because of it.

845
00:38:31,640 –> 00:38:34,719
Speaker 4: We saw this team transform to be even better after

846
00:38:34,760 –> 00:38:36,840
Speaker 4: the fact twenty twenty one almost got back to the

847
00:38:36,840 –> 00:38:39,160
Speaker 4: Super Bowl, then of course won it in twenty twenty

848
00:38:39,160 –> 00:38:41,239
Speaker 4: two to twenty three, and got back in twenty four,

849
00:38:41,719 –> 00:38:43,840
Speaker 4: and then twenty twenty one, we’re talking about losing to

850
00:38:43,840 –> 00:38:46,879
Speaker 4: the Bengals in that AFC Championship game. After that one,

851
00:38:46,920 –> 00:38:48,440
Speaker 4: it was kind of kind of a look in the

852
00:38:48,480 –> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 4: mirror kind of moment. Needed to kind of remake ourselves offensively.

853
00:38:52,760 –> 00:38:55,560
Speaker 4: I think because we saw how teams were playing, US

854
00:38:55,560 –> 00:38:59,000
Speaker 4: couldn’t quite do this explosive downfield passing attack anymore because

855
00:38:59,040 –> 00:39:02,480
Speaker 4: of the two high safety shell coverages and also.

856
00:39:02,400 –> 00:39:04,440
Speaker 3: Kind of needed to undergo a bit of a youth movement.

857
00:39:04,640 –> 00:39:06,200
Speaker 3: I think, well, what’s Brettviach do?

858
00:39:06,520 –> 00:39:09,480
Speaker 4: Trades Tyreek kill to Miami, and Man, if you go

859
00:39:09,560 –> 00:39:12,239
Speaker 4: back and look at the rhetoric back then, I mean

860
00:39:12,360 –> 00:39:16,960
Speaker 4: people just saying doing eulogies for the Chiefs, saying like, hey,

861
00:39:16,960 –> 00:39:19,160
Speaker 4: it was a great run by the Chiefs, we’ll never

862
00:39:19,200 –> 00:39:19,719
Speaker 4: make it back.

863
00:39:19,760 –> 00:39:20,320
Speaker 3: Well, what do you know?

864
00:39:21,400 –> 00:39:23,880
Speaker 4: The Chiefs end up having the number one scoring offense

865
00:39:23,880 –> 00:39:27,239
Speaker 4: in the NFL in twenty twenty two and use the

866
00:39:27,320 –> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 4: draft picks that they got in exchange for Tyreek to

867
00:39:30,840 –> 00:39:33,280
Speaker 4: create the nucleus that’s got us to these super Bowls

868
00:39:33,280 –> 00:39:34,080
Speaker 4: in the time since.

869
00:39:34,239 –> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 3: So I say all this to ask what will it

870
00:39:36,840 –> 00:39:37,480
Speaker 3: be this time?

871
00:39:37,960 –> 00:39:41,640
Speaker 4: So we’ve had a playoff loss, a devastating playoff loss, Well,

872
00:39:41,680 –> 00:39:43,960
Speaker 4: what’s going to happen? History shows us that this team

873
00:39:44,000 –> 00:39:46,400
Speaker 4: will transform and that this team will attack it and

874
00:39:46,440 –> 00:39:48,920
Speaker 4: find a way to be better because of this loss.

875
00:39:49,040 –> 00:39:52,120
Speaker 4: And it could be remaking the offensive line, could be

876
00:39:52,680 –> 00:39:56,760
Speaker 4: some schematic changes offensively, maybe you get more explosive on offense,

877
00:39:57,040 –> 00:39:59,439
Speaker 4: and could be getting younger in some spots, but Brett

878
00:39:59,520 –> 00:40:02,400
Speaker 4: Veach has show us time and time again he is

879
00:40:02,440 –> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 4: not comfortable with the status quo, certainly after a tough

880
00:40:05,840 –> 00:40:08,200
Speaker 4: loss in the playoffs. And he knows that we have

881
00:40:08,239 –> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 4: the greatest quarterback of all time on our team. Let’s

882
00:40:10,680 –> 00:40:12,480
Speaker 4: give him a chance every single year to win the

883
00:40:12,480 –> 00:40:17,000
Speaker 4: Super Bowl. And these tough losses are bummers. But man,

884
00:40:17,360 –> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 4: I look back at it. If we don’t lose that

885
00:40:19,480 –> 00:40:22,000
Speaker 4: game in twenty eighteen, do we win three Super Bowls

886
00:40:22,000 –> 00:40:22,680
Speaker 4: in five years?

887
00:40:22,800 –> 00:40:23,320
Speaker 2: Maybe?

888
00:40:23,520 –> 00:40:26,239
Speaker 4: I don’t know, maybe, But I’m just saying sometimes these

889
00:40:26,239 –> 00:40:29,160
Speaker 4: losses you can use them as a positive moving forward.

890
00:40:29,200 –> 00:40:30,920
Speaker 4: You never want to lose, but when you do, how

891
00:40:30,920 –> 00:40:32,880
Speaker 4: do you get better because of it? And Bred has

892
00:40:32,880 –> 00:40:34,839
Speaker 4: shown us over the years he’s going to do that

893
00:40:34,880 –> 00:40:35,760
Speaker 4: every single time.

894
00:40:36,800 –> 00:40:40,680
Speaker 1: So as we go into twenty twenty five, and we’re

895
00:40:40,719 –> 00:40:43,399
Speaker 1: going to jump in here the combines this week as

896
00:40:43,480 –> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 1: you as we post it, and then that leads into

897
00:40:46,480 –> 00:40:48,600
Speaker 1: the free agency, which gets wild, and then to the

898
00:40:48,640 –> 00:40:51,040
Speaker 1: draft and then to OTAs and then to mini camps

899
00:40:51,080 –> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: and then their training camp and going into the twenty

900
00:40:53,400 –> 00:40:57,279
Speaker 1: twenty five season, well, many others will say that the

901
00:40:57,360 –> 00:41:00,640
Speaker 1: Chiefs are done, that this is over. We give you

902
00:41:01,320 –> 00:41:06,440
Speaker 1: empirical data here because of infrastructure, starting with the ownership

903
00:41:06,480 –> 00:41:09,080
Speaker 1: family and the chairman and CEO Clark Hunt to a

904
00:41:09,080 –> 00:41:11,440
Speaker 1: Hall of fame head coach to a Hall of fame quarterback,

905
00:41:11,960 –> 00:41:15,960
Speaker 1: to handling flash points because a lot of teams lose

906
00:41:16,000 –> 00:41:20,319
Speaker 1: their year or go disappear for a while because they

907
00:41:20,360 –> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 1: do not handle flashpoints. And sometimes even success can be

908
00:41:23,760 –> 00:41:28,160
Speaker 1: a flashpoint. You can’t stay there either way, win or lose.

909
00:41:28,560 –> 00:41:31,160
Speaker 1: And then oh super Bowl blowouts, Well wait a minute.

910
00:41:31,360 –> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 1: Three of the worst blowouts produced a division winner the

911
00:41:35,120 –> 00:41:37,960
Speaker 1: following year, including a team that went back to the

912
00:41:37,960 –> 00:41:42,440
Speaker 1: super Bowl. So we’re just taking a look at things

913
00:41:42,719 –> 00:41:47,239
Speaker 1: and what we’re doing is auditing assets and we move

914
00:41:47,320 –> 00:41:59,600
Speaker 1: forward with a lot of enthusiasm.

915
00:42:00,080 –> 00:42:00,120
Speaker 2: M
