  Speaker 1: I mean, I don't want you to feel left out,
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: like who reached out to you this season?
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: Like everybody, everybody.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I can imagine, oh god, you know, but I do

  Speaker 1: so like what you know? For you specifically, I think understanding.

• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Brown?
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Like the way that like most competitors do, I be like, Bro,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: I under I feel them like you, you play a
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: dependatory pocision precision. So like, what would you say to
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: the people who probably don't really understand.
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: You, like, just keep doing what you're doing?
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what's the book about that? Honestly?
• 3:47
  Speaker 6: What was the whole I say that because that's out
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: of my control. Like obviously we're competitors up here, and
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: you all understand the drive and the motivation and desire
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: to win, and that's for us to tell to really understand.
• 4:01
  Speaker 6: But to fans, no offense. You guys, that's your favorite team,
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: your room for them. You want to win, but it's
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: a different level of a different space that you have
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: to you have to enter to want to be great,
• 4:13
  Speaker 6: to challenge yourself, put yourself on the line, and it
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: can get tough. And that's why I just tell fans
• 4:20
  Speaker 6: just to keep doing what you're doing. But I appreciate
• 4:22
  Speaker 6: all the love and support and just it comes with it,
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: you know, the good, the bad, the praise, the accountability,
• 4:27
  Speaker 6: it all comes with it, you know. But for us,
• 4:29
  Speaker 6: we just have to stay on line and continue to
• 4:32
  Speaker 6: keep getting better and trying to achieve what we want
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: to achieve.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: And like one hundred percent, and you talked about the
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: bad but the good. You just like me, you went
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: from one organization to the other and that kind of
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: changed your whole life and careers. What was that transition?
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: Like what was Tennessee like versus Eagles? Is there any regrets,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: any beef?
• 4:51
  Speaker 6: Like no, no, no regrets, no beef, no nothing. Man,
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: I appreciate my time in Tennessee is where I kicked
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: out my journey, you know. And I was just telling Bryce,
• 5:00
  Speaker 6: my wide receiver coature who's now with the Panthers, Rob Moore.
• 5:03
  Speaker 4: You know, he developed me so well at Tennessee.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: It taught me a lot of things, and I'm glad.
• 5:08
  Speaker 6: I'm glad that he placed his hands on me first
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: and when I first got to the league. But when
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: I got to Philly, man, Philly welcomed me with open arms.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 5:14
  Speaker 6: That's home man, and I love him, you know. I
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: love the support, I love the accountability. I loved everything
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: else that they do. But uh, it just Philly is Philly.
• 5:25
  Speaker 6: He just you have to be there to understand you
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: from there, so you understand, like I'm from near Philly.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: You know, I gotta clean my city every time because
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: it gets conflicted too much, y'all. You really you wanted
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: to be EGO at one point, Yo, we could get
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: into that hold on.
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: You can hear still there.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: So so to be honest with you, bro, it was
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: it was very close. It was very close. Eagles before
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: the Jalen Phillips before all them.
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: It was me.
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: It was me, and I was really about to come,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: but there was one person that I had to play
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: with that if he was going, I did not want
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: to be there, and that was Jalen Carter. They wanted
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: to d tackle and they wanted to trade me plus
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: some picks. I mean, I don't really care about the picks,
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: but I'm coming to play next to JC.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: You feel me, like crazy? Yeah?
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: Like so it Sorry Cowboys fans. It almost it really
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: almost happened. Talk about beef. Yeah, yeah, for real, that
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: would have been I feel like the trajectory would have changed.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: That would have been there.
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: Everything has on behalf of all the quarterbacks in the league.
• 6:35
  Speaker 5: I'm very happy that did not happen.
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: Yo, speaking about all the quarterbacks in the league. For you,
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: someone like you said you got benched, do you feel
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: like it's not the same developed like he talked about
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: he got developed, he had a great coach earlier in
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: your career.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Do you have a new QB coach now.
• 6:56
  Speaker 5: From my first after my first season, I got this
• 7:00
  Speaker 5: saying for the last two years now, So for.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: You, like, what helps you transpire from the guy that
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: got benched to the guy that leads his team to playoffs.
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: You came down, Lambo got a big win. I mean
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: this year in general, the Rams, I mean you you
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: got big win after big win.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: How did you change your trajectory? Who? Like? Was it development?
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: Was this experience like explaining that, Yeah.
• 7:27
  Speaker 3: I think experience was a really big thing for me.
• 7:30
  Speaker 5: Like, you know, my first year, you know, we were
• 7:33
  Speaker 5: there are a lot of ups and downs from the teams.
• 7:35
  Speaker 5: You know, that was definitely a big learning experience for me.
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: Growing after that first year. You know, we clean house
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: on the offensive side, new staff, new system. So off
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: season I'm learning, not only learning the players, but I'm
• 7:46
  Speaker 5: learning the philosophy of the team. Like I'm learning we
• 7:49
  Speaker 5: got a new new head coach, off inside of the ball,
• 7:52
  Speaker 5: learning what what he expects from the position, what the
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: position looks like, all that stuff. And then first two
• 7:58
  Speaker 5: games don't start great, and yeah, bench and it was
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: like for me, I was like, you know, it was
• 8:03
  Speaker 5: just trying to figure out and learn as much as
• 8:05
  Speaker 5: I can from the sideline, trying to take as many
• 8:07
  Speaker 5: reps from the sideline as I can, and then coming back,
• 8:10
  Speaker 5: I just felt more and more comfortable in the system,
• 8:12
  Speaker 5: more and more understood what the coaches were looking for,
• 8:15
  Speaker 5: like understood, you know, we started to kind of form
• 8:17
  Speaker 5: our identity as a team. Really stepped into that this year,
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: I feel like and understood, Like how do I lead that?
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: You know, how do I cultivate that?
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: Helme I make sure you know, I'm the best version
• 8:26
  Speaker 5: of myself so that we're going in that direction.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: So I think it was just timing. Yeah, same thing,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: growing and experience.
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: So you know, I believe everything happens for a reason
• 8:35
  Speaker 5: for sure, so I'm grateful for it.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and you know with that, like I don't think
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: people fathom how different college versus NFL is, like as
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: young quarterbacks, young players, Like, please, like whoever's listenings or
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: see this, explain that because like we just said, you're
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: a Heisman Trophy winner, You're a number one overall pick,
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: and you're like at the highest of your life, Like
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: you like, this is exactly where I wanted to be.
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: This is where my life was supposed to be going
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: everything that I wish pray for. Please, like, you know,
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: for people that are struggling that kind of want to
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: give up, Like, don't really understand explain like that difference
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: between college to the pros till you said cleared house
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: like to new coaching, like, explain that a little bit.
• 9:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, No, I'm glad you brought that up. Like it's
• 9:23
  Speaker 5: for me from a football standpoint. I didn't have a
• 9:26
  Speaker 5: ton of adversity in my football journey from high school on,
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: like you said, I was. I was very blessed, had
• 9:32
  Speaker 5: a lot of really good circumstances. Then going it was
• 9:35
  Speaker 5: like a complete one eighty like going to you know,
• 9:39
  Speaker 5: losing I had lost more my rookie year than I
• 9:42
  Speaker 5: lost probably tackle football games combined in my entire life,
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: like and then having to not just deal with that,
• 9:50
  Speaker 5: but what like you know, what's my role in changing that? Like,
• 9:53
  Speaker 5: And I think that was one of the things I
• 9:54
  Speaker 5: had to learn, was like you know, I wasn't used
• 9:57
  Speaker 5: to I was used to like, you know, taking what
• 9:59
  Speaker 5: the standard is is now pushing it forward.
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 10:02
  Speaker 5: I got to assimilate first and then find my own
• 10:05
  Speaker 5: and keep. And for us, we had to find our
• 10:07
  Speaker 5: own idea. You know, we had to scramble a little
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: bit and figure things out. So I think for anyone,
• 10:13
  Speaker 5: you know, I think that that ups and downs are inevitable,
• 10:16
  Speaker 5: but they don't have to be a negative thing. You know,
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: it doesn't have to be. You know, growth looks like
• 10:20
  Speaker 5: a lot of different things. You know, some you know
• 10:22
  Speaker 5: from the outside, success is just you know whatever, raising
• 10:25
  Speaker 5: some trophy or or some award.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: But that's not always the case.
• 10:29
  Speaker 5: Something you can you can have an off day and
• 10:31
  Speaker 5: you can really look back, you know, three four weeks
• 10:34
  Speaker 5: lay like, nah, that was a that was a good
• 10:35
  Speaker 5: week for me long term, like I grew. So I think,
• 10:38
  Speaker 5: just change your definition success knowing you could find a
• 10:41
  Speaker 5: win anywhere if you take that approach, it is super important.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: That's powerful. That that reminds me of the saying that
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I just read in this book recently. It's delayed, not denial,
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean.
• 10:52
  Speaker 3: That's good.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Your success is kind of determined on your perspective and
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: outlook on life and understanding even for us as a crime,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: whether you're electrician, you could be, I mean, whatever you
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: want to be, but understanding that your pace in your
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: journey is your race, Like that's the race God has
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: destined for you, you know what I mean. So that's real
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: a j How would you you know, chime in on that?
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: I mean, you guys kind of said everything right, You know,
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: you know, I got a good one for you, bro,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: because I'm not gonna lie. Like you know, I saw
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: Stay last night that said so two K said yeah, wow,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: he's the part of that.
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Nah. So for me was I'm not gonna lie.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: Y'all was the most souped up team as symbol that
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: we see in a very long time, and you can't
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: even deny it. Like I think, like geezh, like great emperors,
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: there's a rise and there's a little bit of a fall,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: like what was the internal fall? Like I'm not even
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: gonna lie, Like what.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Are you talking about? Let we're talking about here.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: Y'all having a good day, Like.
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie.
• 12:28
  Speaker 1: Like I look at your team and it's hard to say,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: like how aren't you in the super Bowl again?
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: You know you know what I mean? Like and as
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: a competitor, I'm like when you look at.
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: The Eagles, like you can't really game plan, like when
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: we talk about it, like, ah, we got limited exposed
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: to runs. Then you're like, we can't play too much man,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: because you got you. Then you like we can't rotate
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: too much because you got Vante and you know what
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: I mean.
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: Like it's the same way on the defensive end, like
• 12:57
  Speaker 5: top to bottom. We played them last year, it was well,
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: we don't got no, you know, there's no really weak point.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: There's no we're not going to attack him, there's no.
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: And they almost wan.
• 13:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah, I really don't know.
• 13:16
  Speaker 6: Like like like Bryce said, you know, you have you
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: have good days, you have bad days. And unfortunately that
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: day was a bad day. You know, I know Niners
• 13:23
  Speaker 6: fans are happy, but it was just a bad day.
• 13:27
  Speaker 6: It's a bad day at the office. But you look
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: back on those things and uh, you know you're grateful
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: because you'd be grateful for the hogs and lows because
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: you get a chance to rediscover yourself. And I know
• 13:35
  Speaker 6: me personally, I'm excited to get into this lab and
• 13:40
  Speaker 6: better myself each and every day and to grow and
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: and then you see what you see when you see me,
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: you know, so uh yeah, but I don't know. I mean,
• 13:49
  Speaker 6: things happen, you know, not everything's going to go your way.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: That's life. And you learn you learn to accept that.
• 13:55
  Speaker 6: You know, even if you think you're supposed to do this,
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: so you you know, it's just sometimes just it just
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: not for you.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: You know, in that moment you know it just wasn't
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: that's true. I experienced that. Yeah, yeah, I had some
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: games that we should have lost this year one hundred percent.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: But you know, was football ever really your first love? Sport?
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: Bro, it'so litely not.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: We hear your hell of a baseball player?
• 14:23
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: Yeah, baseball was my first love? What drafted by the Padres?
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Why ain't you what happened?
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: Like I said that because we're in California, like somebody
• 14:34
  Speaker 6: has some fans in here.
• 14:37
  Speaker 4: Okay, I relaxed.
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: Like, what what happened? Oh? Shoot, what happened?
• 14:44
  Speaker 3: He was all American?
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I was all American.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: Nothing happened.
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: I just fell in love with football, sporing touchdowns literally
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: like I talked about it earlier, the dopamine when you
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: scoring touchdown with fans are going crazy and teammates jumping
• 14:58
  Speaker 6: up like it's a different feeling hit in the whole run.
• 15:02
  Speaker 2: I'm not gonna lie I would agree with you.
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: But the first time I went to a Phillies game
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: and I've seen Bryce Harper.
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: Laughing at the tweet, I mean, no, shade, that's real.
• 15:18
  Speaker 6: You have to say that, that's really But I seen
• 15:24
  Speaker 6: Bryce Harper hit that home run. I never seen like that.
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: That was like dope just to watch it. Like, but
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: that's like World Series type as far as play playoff baseball,
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: it's crazy. Yeah that was that was nutty.
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: But the game is kind of boring.
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: Sorry, but like it is.
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: It's a slow paced game and you really got to
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: be engaged and like the only fun part about it
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: is hitting and you you get three or four, You
• 15:47
  Speaker 6: get three or four at that and you got a
• 15:49
  Speaker 6: guy pitching one hundred miles throwing at your head like, yeah,
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: I'd rather catch a football score testdown.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: That's fun.
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: I mean we honest, you can't say it's the money.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, you don't smash the record books at that too.
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Baseball money crazy.
• 16:05
  Speaker 6: But you can't compare it to the baseball though.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah that's guaranteed for life, for life, Yeah for life, right?
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: You playing the other sports?
• 16:16
  Speaker 3: I played basketball a little growing up.
• 16:18

  Speaker 3: I was a pure Like I was a pure point.
• 16:31
  Speaker 5: I wasn't like I played on ball like you know,
• 16:34
  Speaker 5: I played my role. I was trash trash or whatever
• 16:39
  Speaker 5: else he's sleeping.
• 16:42
  Speaker 1: No, because if you told me him, like, yeah, I'm
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: a shooter, like I didn't been confident back.
• 16:46
  Speaker 5: No, get healthy. You know we'll be Once you get healthy,

• 16:54
  Speaker 4: You play ball.
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: I play ball a little bit. I play a little ball,
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: But I'm probably like more charged Barkley.
• 17:01
  Speaker 5: Okay, I believe that that's not surprising. That didn't shock
• 17:05
  Speaker 5: me at all.
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: I have a question, what's up since you're in PA?
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: And say, is in PA? What good at basketball?
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: Bro?
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: I'm not even gonna lie to you, because he believes
• 17:14
  Speaker 6: he could do everything I played. Like my first injury
• 17:18
  Speaker 6: almost happened with the Basketballow that explains it. He is
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: like like just overly hacking.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: Know that, like pushing you. He's not gonna let you
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: get a lay up. He's gonna make you shoot every time.
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: He bro Why am I even playing this game? It
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: felt like I was in a It's felt like I
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: was playing rugby with the basketball. Sure, you know what
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: I mean, some people you just can't play. But no,
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: I would not consider say a basketball player at all
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: can't shoot the best thing his ability is jumping, and
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: you know that that's his best ability. I mean getting
• 17:50
  Speaker 1: into this though, Like, look into the offseason, right, you know,
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: I feel like we all had great seasons. What does
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: it look like for you next year? Like, do you
• 17:59
  Speaker 1: think y'all can PS champions? Do you think y'all can
• 18:02
  Speaker 1: take that next jump? I mean that's for you, I
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: mean you too. I mean that roster ain't going nowhere.
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: Like so for both of y'all looking into this offseason
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: and you say you're once again the Rams. Y'all was
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: close to going into that next round. I mean for
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: y'all bad on offense, but y'all still got everybody back.
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: What does it look like for y'all, Like going into
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: the offseason, what is it looking like for you as
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: a quarterback? And to say, all right, well, my first
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: two years I would look like this. My third year
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: I list to playoffs, had a much better year. What
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: do you think is gonna take for you to jump
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to that Pro Bowl All Pro quarterback that I know
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: you believe that you can be.
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna lie. I've been rooting for you
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: since you came into the league. You know what I mean?
• 18:45
  Speaker 2: Like that, I think you can be What does that
• 18:47
  Speaker 2: jump look like for you? Yeah?
• 18:49
  Speaker 5: I think for me, for us as a unit team
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: really just our big, big, goalgious consistency, you know.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: I think like this.
• 18:55
  Speaker 5: Year, you know, we we've not even just to the
• 18:58
  Speaker 5: don't really care about you know, how the world sees it.
• 19:00
  Speaker 5: But for us, you know, we just prove it to ourselves,
• 19:02
  Speaker 5: like you know what we're capable of. You know, we
• 19:04
  Speaker 5: feel like you know, our best is good enough. You know,
• 19:07
  Speaker 5: we have what it takes in that locker room, and
• 19:09
  Speaker 5: it's just about being consistent with it, like you know,
• 19:11
  Speaker 5: making sure that we can week out, we hold each
• 19:13
  Speaker 5: other to a standard as a team individually, making sure
• 19:16
  Speaker 5: there's a consistent, consistent thing where you know, it's it's
• 19:20
  Speaker 5: not just the flashes, it's not the highest, not the sometimes,
• 19:23
  Speaker 5: but every week and you know, we know how hard
• 19:25
  Speaker 5: that is in this league, of course, and we got
• 19:27
  Speaker 5: a lot of work to do to get there, but
• 19:29
  Speaker 5: that's for sure gonna be our goal.
• 19:30
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: As an offense, we just come back and just really
• 19:34
  Speaker 6: watch the tape and just like I said earlier, we
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: discover ourselves and go to work each and every day,
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: you know, being accountable and just taking one day at
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: a time. You know, we we have great leaders in
• 19:46
  Speaker 6: our locker room. Un fortunate to be a part of that,
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: especially on offense. And like we do have a lot
• 19:51
  Speaker 6: of talent, but talent gets us nowhere in fact, you know,
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: So it's all about being detailed and being disciplined.
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: Is there an excitement with some of the new coaches
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: y'all got in?
• 20:00
  Speaker 6: Yeah, of course, Yeah, I'm always excited. Uh, you know,
• 20:04
  Speaker 6: sometimes changes is not a bad thing. I have the
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: utmost respect for KP to me, did tremendous job and
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: he has a great heart. But I'm excited for the
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: for the season. I'm excited for Western KHM.
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: So for sure. And you know, get into this one.
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: It says, looking to get better, let's look ahead, and
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: what do you all think the fans, you guys voted
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: on the top five teams who I think will win
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: it next year? So the fans voted, who do you
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: guys think is the top five teams that they voted in.
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: One team at the time, what do you think?
• 20:48
  Speaker 5: I mean, the two that are there, you know, you
• 20:50
  Speaker 5: can't obviously you can't count them out. Obviously they they're
• 20:54
  Speaker 5: the two they are there right now.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: I got a ton of respect for us their journey.
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: So I think the two Seawks Pats got obviously be
• 21:04
  Speaker 5: on that list of the talk. You know, you you're
• 21:06
  Speaker 5: in that respect of getting there there obviously none of
• 21:09
  Speaker 5: them may wow what I mean?
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: I mean, bro, like, you know I'm not you know,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: you can say I'm a hater, but this ain't what
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: the super Bowl supposed to look like.
• 21:22
  Speaker 7: I'm hold on, hold on, no, no, no, I need
• 21:32
  Speaker 7: you to laborate on that, please, because because football is,
• 21:36
  Speaker 7: it's so hard, it's so hard to win at this league.
• 21:38
  Speaker 6: Like, so the two teams that are there, they deserve
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: to be there, guys, like trust me, like like it's
• 21:44
  Speaker 6: really hard. I'm not just saying that, like it is
• 21:46
  Speaker 6: so hard to win. Like for example, I just said,
• 21:49
  Speaker 6: the Panthers almost beat us, and until.
• 21:52
  Speaker 3: You all example, you could have used a lot of things.
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: Stay with me, stay with me.
• 21:57
  Speaker 6: But the record, the record at the time didn't show
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: that you guys were playing well. But every every given
• 22:03
  Speaker 6: Sunday you never know, and you have to come out
• 22:06
  Speaker 6: and play your best ball. So to say, again, those
• 22:09
  Speaker 6: two teams deserve to be there.
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: I just feel like this year, specifically, who is supposed
• 22:15
  Speaker 2: to be, who is supposed to be?
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: Who is supposed to be this year? Now, I hopefully
• 22:25
  Speaker 3: y'all y'all on this talk.
• 22:26
  Speaker 5: We went to Lambo this year and I'm not gonna
• 22:29
  Speaker 5: lie one being of to play in that environment was
• 22:31
  Speaker 5: really cool, y'all.
• 22:32
  Speaker 3: Gotta crazy environment, bad, yes, real bad lights from the
• 22:41
  Speaker 3: offensive side, y'all.
• 22:42
  Speaker 5: As a defense, y'all, that was an elite, elite group obviously.
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: I mean not just obviously for for y'all, even for
• 22:49
  Speaker 5: the sport. You know, we all you're going down that
• 22:51
  Speaker 5: that hurts. It hurts the game. You know, it's not
• 22:53
  Speaker 5: games not the same when you're not playing it, for sure,
• 22:55
  Speaker 5: So you know obviously that that's huge. You can't measure that.
• 22:58
  Speaker 5: But as a as a unit with you leading that like,
• 23:01
  Speaker 5: that was a really really tough, tough game for us.
• 23:04
  Speaker 5: That was a tough unit. You know, we we we
• 23:06
  Speaker 5: were able to get out of there, but that was like,
• 23:08
  Speaker 5: you know.
• 23:08
  Speaker 2: That was that game.
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: I hated that game. Hey, bro, I came into I
• 23:14
  Speaker 1: came out of that game. I said, we don't want
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: to play them again. It was just like like for me,
• 23:24
  Speaker 1: all right, So as a defensive player, I would say,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: I pretty much know everything that the offense can run.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: I almost memorized it. I understand what you're trying to do.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: You guys had a similar game plan, Well Chicago had
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: a similar game plan. They washed your tape and was like,
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: we're going to copy that. But that whole inside zone,
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: slice zone, chip boot like, that's that's that's a rush.
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: That's that's a lot to deal with, bro, instead of
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: a team just dropping back almost every time. And you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: when you create that run game to make that pass
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: game and the backshall had Chubba Rico having that combination.
• 24:01
  Speaker 2: Bro's it's tough. It's tough.
• 24:03
  Speaker 1: And you guys had your mind up that we're going
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: to run the ball thirty times again. That is no
• 24:09
  Speaker 1: deep Like, I don't care how good you are, what
• 24:12
  Speaker 1: defense you're playing with, nobody wants to see someone run
• 24:15
  Speaker 1: the ball thirty times again, you.
• 24:18
  Speaker 2: Know what I mean?
• 24:19
  Speaker 4: So all right, hey, now.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: You're just doing run off routes like I don't think
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: so the players do. But we're not talking about me.
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: But let's just finish these guesses.
• 24:37
  Speaker 5: And oh yeah, let's you know, we get it. Your show,
• 24:40
  Speaker 5: it's your audience. Let's let's put the Packers up there,
• 24:42
  Speaker 5: see if they make the list.
• 24:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, packers, yeah.
• 24:48
  Speaker 3: Saying while we up here, throw the Eagles up there,
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: of course, of course. Dang that's crazy.
• 24:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, dang, we make it.
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: I mean when we.
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: Let's go through the pan.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: Niners. D cool, I feel cold.
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: Oh no, dude, any of y'all have anything that this
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: is the Fairs to say to me?
• 25:28
  Speaker 6: Okay, those are some really nice teams.
• 25:34
  Speaker 3: Those are good. Yeah, those are good teams. Those are
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: a good team.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: Do y'all think like like even as y'all right, Josh Allen,
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: there's no Josh Allen. I mean, I mean no Patrick Mahomes.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: There wasn't too Joe Burrows in this playoffs. There wasn't
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: you know, the usuals that the do you do you
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: think that this was the most like vulnerable super Bowl,
• 25:57
  Speaker 1: especially first on the NFC.
• 25:58
  Speaker 2: We know how hard I I don't care what you said.
• 26:01
  Speaker 2: I tell people, we know how hard the NFC is.
• 26:03
  Speaker 1: Weekend we got whether it's divisional non divisional, it's stacked.
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: It's not even close.
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: I see what you're saying.
• 26:10
  Speaker 5: I don't think there's a more or less winnable super Bowl, though,
• 26:13
  Speaker 5: Like which just from being in it, like from our
• 26:16
  Speaker 5: perspective one just I mean the journey and my we
• 26:19
  Speaker 5: made it to the first round this year, not like
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: I've been all the way, but the mental it takes
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: to get all the way there to put those performances together.
• 26:26
  Speaker 5: You know, you got to win so many in a
• 26:28
  Speaker 5: row to get there, like and it really is a
• 26:31
  Speaker 5: you know, is that any given Sunday type thing? So
• 26:34
  Speaker 5: I I don't feel like it's it's obviously you know,
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: there's a it's a couple of names up there that
• 26:40
  Speaker 5: you're used to seeing the playoffs that weren't there, which
• 26:42
  Speaker 5: is like, you know, even for me as a fan
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: of the game, it's like, you know, you want to
• 26:45
  Speaker 5: see those guys in those big time moments. But it's like,
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's it's never something that's that's just like
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: right there attainable.
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: It's always hard to do in my opinion.
• 26:54
  Speaker 6: Yeah, most importantly, you did say those names and and uh,
• 26:57
  Speaker 6: you know they're not They're not there this time. But
• 26:59
  Speaker 6: you know, I'm looking at the perspectives, Yeah, give someone
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: else a chance to come alive. You know, you know,
• 27:05
  Speaker 6: you got Drake May, you got Sam Donald, you know,
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: they're gonna go ahead to head. You know, that may
• 27:10
  Speaker 6: be a name you talk about in the future to
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: add to that list.
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: Do you think, especially talking about Trajectoris, is Drake may
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: the next one?
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: Like we're about to see.
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: Like, man, he's I mean, for it seems like it
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: for sure. I mean to see what he did this year.
• 27:28
  Speaker 5: You know, I committed a lot for commit him a
• 27:30
  Speaker 5: lot for the turnaround for and again that was this
• 27:32
  Speaker 5: is a new staff. You know, he's going to year
• 27:34
  Speaker 5: or two for him to play at the level he's
• 27:36
  Speaker 5: been playing that all year, get him to this point,
• 27:39
  Speaker 5: you know, regardless of what happens this weekend.
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: I mean, that's a short list. I don't know the
• 27:44
  Speaker 3: statistics or whatever.
• 27:45
  Speaker 5: But guys, second year, they've had all these records of guys,
• 27:49
  Speaker 5: you know, their record from last year, this year, you know,
• 27:51
  Speaker 5: obviously he's a catalyst for all that.
• 27:53
  Speaker 3: So I mean, I think that the sky's a limit
• 27:56
  Speaker 3: for him.
• 27:56
  Speaker 5: I mean, it's really cool as a huge just watching
• 27:59
