  Speaker 1: Our guest today is probably my biggest nightmare come true.
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: My guest today. Our guest today, the bust one with
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the boys was Mike Rabel, the head coach at the
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Tennessee Titans. Not only is he a head coach, before that,
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: he was with the Houston Texans for two years once
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: is the DC and then the year before that was
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: a linebacker. Keep going backwards, it's like a real It's
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: like a Quentin Tarantino movie. We're going backwards before we
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: go forwards. So now we're going backwards to any farther.
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: Now we're at Ohio State. He plays the He coached
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: there for I believe one or two years. Not really
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: important because it's Ohio State and nobody cares on the bus.
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: So now we go back and I'm gonna just go
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: on a long way here. The man played fourteen years
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: in the NFL. If you're thinking, how good is that, well,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: the answer is the average in the NFL is three
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: and a half years so pretty good. Okay, okay, he
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: did pretty good. A lot of guys don't do as good.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: So he did pretty good, all right, fourteen years there,
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: played at Ohio State before, so you can tell he
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: doesn't make the best life decisions. But I will tell
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: you the man is very charismatic. He's a great leader,
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: He's got a lot of fun conversation. He just absolutely
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: butchers will. It's very unfortunate to see. And I'm looking
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: at one of my best friends on the highway like roadkill,
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: and I don't know what to do to I drag
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: him off the road or just let him suffer or
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: just wait for that semi tried to hit him again,
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: so we know for sure he's dead, you know what
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: I'm saying, because he ain't gonna make it regardless. I

• 8:28
  Speaker 2: What is now? I know you basically shoved down both
• 8:30
  Speaker 2: the funny fun questions. What we got up there? So, uh,
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: let's start from the beginning. Ohio state. You grew up.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: You grew up in Ohio?
• 8:37
  Speaker 4: Right, I did?
• 8:39
  Speaker 2: What made you go to Ohio? Stay?
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: Were you like?
• 8:40
  Speaker 4: I was committed. I was going to go to Michigan
• 8:43
  Speaker 4: and what yep?
• 8:44
  Speaker 2: Oh, here we go.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: We got what you would call it Michigan lean up
• 8:48
  Speaker 3: until the time I took my visit and then.
• 8:56
  Speaker 4: It didn't go well.
• 8:57
  Speaker 3: It was one of those bad this is back in wheneveryboy,
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: he took visits like you didn't commit until you took
• 9:01
  Speaker 3: a visit after the senior year, and that you know.
• 9:04
  Speaker 4: That's how it was.
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: And so went to Notre Dame. I loved it, went,
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: but it really wasn't in play. Michigan was still the lean.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: And then I took my visit in December. Next week
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: went to Ohio State and realized that Ohio State was
• 9:19
  Speaker 3: was the place for me. But I really just because
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: my first I went I went to a football camp.
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: I went to the Michigan football camp with my buddies
• 9:25
  Speaker 3: in high school. Just went up there, stayed in the dorms,
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: was out running around on the field and they asked,
• 9:29
  Speaker 3: this is when Gary Muller was still the coach. When
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: they said, Coach Mouller want to see him thinking we
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: didn't get in trouble already.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: We only been here like six hours.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: And so then he offered me a scholarship just in
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: his office. I had no idea, like I wasn't being
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: really recruited or anything. And then he offered me a scholarship,
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: and then played my next year and went up there
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: on saturdays for football games, and just it just wasn't right. Fit,
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: just wasn't right fit.
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: Was there something specific that happened during your visit, like
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: the guys you just didn't mess with the dude.
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, the guy that they gave me, it didn't go well.
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: He said he got sick. But then you know Lloyd
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: I will tell you this. Lloyd Carr's son, Jason salvaged
• 10:05
  Speaker 3: the visit was he was phenomenal to this day.
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: I remember the visit because of that.
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: He wasn't my host, but he's like, dude, I know
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: you're not coming here, but I'll make this night fun.
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: And it was because of your visit.
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: When you change your mind, yeah wow, because I think
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: to me, the thing I told Tyler when he went
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: to Boston was looking at colleges or even when now
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: Carter's looking isn't don't pick the school because you have
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: a relationship with the coach.
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: You think the coach is cool. You got to pick
• 10:33
  Speaker 4: a school because of the players in the school.
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: Like, the players don't leave and the school never changes,
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: But the coaches, you'a offer him two hundred thousand dollars more,
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: they're leaving. I don't care what they say. In recruiting,
• 10:42
  Speaker 3: I told every kid I recruited the same way. If
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: something else comes along, that's better for me my family
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: than Ohio State, I'm gonna go. But Ohio State's still
• 10:51
  Speaker 3: the best place for you. And that's what happened. I
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: when I'm going to the Texas, Yeah, and had to
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: call and I went I left before recruiting. I'm like,
• 10:56
  Speaker 3: I'm not gonna wait till February third to leave and
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: go to the Texans. I'm gonna leave in January when
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: you know the job's ready. And I told every kid
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: that I was recruiting, this is the best place for
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: me and Jen and Carter and Tyler, and Ohio State's
• 11:09
  Speaker 3: the best place for you.
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you had you had a good You had a
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: good like recruiting store. I think you told me who
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: was it? Some linebacker that wanted to bring you into
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: a hot stain. You like left a baseball game to
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: like go see him at Ohio State and you're like, listen,
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: May like I'm not.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: He ended up in Georgia, and you know it was
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: just you're at the beck and call of some of
• 11:25
  Speaker 3: these guys and they're just and he's like, I thought

  Speaker 2: came in. That's saying you were gonna not not that
• 11:41
  Speaker 2: you're gonna leave, but you're like listen, like it's the business.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: I don't think you ever publicized to another player like hey,
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: there's a chance that won't be here.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: No, but I always told him like just because you
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: may like me or you may like your position, coach like,
• 11:53

• 11:55
  Speaker 3: the players and hang out with the players, those are
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: the guys that you I mean, you're best are the
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: ones My best friends are the ones I played college

  Speaker 3: So I think what happened was they tried to play
• 12:37
  Speaker 3: me at D line. I tried to play d ND
• 12:39
  Speaker 3: in Pittsburgh. So literally my first year, I think I
• 12:42
  Speaker 3: played six positions. I played like three technique five technique
• 12:46
  Speaker 3: outside backer, and I mean that was all over them,
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: just because you were kind of tweeting because I was
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: real measurable, correct, but I but I salvaged on some
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: role on third down in special teams. Then I was
• 12:56
  Speaker 3: in a car accident and I lost like twenty pounds,
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: and so they were like, well, we think you'd probably
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: be a better outside linebacker. So I ended up learning
• 13:05
  Speaker 3: how to play that position. Took a little longer, took
• 13:07
  Speaker 3: probably two years until I was ready to start. By
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: that time, Joey Porter was starting and I was playing,
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: but I was rotating. It was like play a series
• 13:19
  Speaker 3: each half. So my contract came up and Belichick offered
• 13:22
  Speaker 3: me less than what I got as a rookie signing bonus.
• 13:25
  Speaker 3: It was just an opportunity deal, and Cower was like,
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: I think, you know, I can give you that money,
• 13:30
  Speaker 3: but I can't give you the same opportunity. So then
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: I took the opportunity and.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: You're with the Patriots.
• 13:34
  Speaker 4: How long eight years?
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: Was that?
• 13:37
  Speaker 2: Was that your favorite? That was probably your favorite?
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: Stant Well, I mean obviously, I mean it's where we
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: had the most success as a team individually.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: You know, it was good. I'll be honest with you.
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: My first what eight years of four years of high
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: school and four years of Pittsburgh.
• 13:51
  Speaker 4: I was no longer than two hours away from my house.
• 13:54
  Speaker 2: Four years saying four years of college, four years of
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: college school, yeah, four years of college, excuse me?
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: And then four years and then fell I was no
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: more than an hour and forty five minutes from Akron, Ohio,
• 14:03
  Speaker 3: Columbus and Pittsburgh. So it was kind of like it
• 14:06
  Speaker 3: was good for us as a family to get away
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: and just it was us. It was us four Carter
• 14:12
  Speaker 3: was born when we were up there, and it was
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: just good just to be able to get away.
• 14:16
  Speaker 4: And not have just friends family being there every single minute.
• 14:21
  Speaker 2: And a lot of your buddies came from the Patriots.
• 14:24
  Speaker 2: I only say that because I saw you at the
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: I saw you in a picture at what was it,
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby with all the boys and I'm sitting there,
• 14:32
  Speaker 2: like I'm sitting there chuckling, like, look at Brave just
• 14:34
  Speaker 2: with the boys that like that he played like he's
• 14:38
  Speaker 2: a coach now that he's probably there, like, hey, boys,
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: remember I whooped your ass this past year? You know
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: what I mean?
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: Probably, I mean a pretty good chance I would I
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: would imagine that that went on. But it's unique to
• 14:52
  Speaker 3: still be able to I mean, suck Up was a rookie.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: When I was a player.
• 14:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right in Kansas City.
• 14:57
  Speaker 3: So it's it's kind of funny to look at him
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: and see how he he's grown and he's you know,
• 15:01
  Speaker 3: got a wife and kids, and he's still playing. And
• 15:04
  Speaker 3: I mean he was a rookie when I was still
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: playing in Kansas City and k lou last year, right,
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: you know. I think the one thing with the Patriots
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: was the first year that I signed there in two
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: thousand and one, there was twenty six new players on
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: that team, like Bill had completely just flipped the roster
• 15:20
  Speaker 3: from two thousand to two thousand.
• 15:22
  Speaker 4: And one, and William McGinnis was was a holdover, Teddy.
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Bruski ty law lawyer Marloy and we drafted Seymour that
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: year and Tom.
• 15:33
  Speaker 4: You know, Brady was a holdover, but you know, he
• 15:36
  Speaker 4: really was just a backup quarterback.
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: And then Bledsoe got hurt and I think in the
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: third week and Tom kind of came in and you know,
• 15:42
  Speaker 3: we kind of got on a roll and won.
• 15:44
  Speaker 4: I think we won nine games after Thanksgiving. If you
• 15:47
  Speaker 4: can imagine that.
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: Before Tom played, could you tell he was special?
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: Well, I watched him work and I did think that
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: he was a dude. He was a leader.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: He was a dude that when we went out in
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: training camp and we had a night off or whatever,
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: he was right in the middle with the boys and
• 16:02
  Speaker 3: you know, having a good time. And I get that
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: that's changed over the course of his career and his
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: life and you know, his family and as he's gotten older.
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: But I think you recognized early on that people would
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: play for him, that guys would play hard for him.
• 16:15
  Speaker 4: And and we threw a lot, We ran the ball,
• 16:17
  Speaker 4: We threw a bunch of screens.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: Troy Brown had like one hundred and five catches for
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: seven and a half yard average.
• 16:22
  Speaker 4: I mean, it was just we manufactured wins that first year.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: But there were so many new players that the Larry
• 16:29
  Speaker 3: Izzo came in and we had so many new guys
• 16:32
  Speaker 3: that we didn't have a chance. There was no other
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: way than to come together with the holdovers that they had,
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: and then all these other new guys that that Billett
• 16:40
  Speaker 3: signed in free agency.
• 16:42
  Speaker 2: How how did you how did your mindset change? Like
• 16:46
  Speaker 2: after you playing with the Patriots for eight years and
• 16:49
  Speaker 2: you how long did you play at KC too? How
• 16:52
  Speaker 2: much did your like mindset change, like as you became
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: more of a veteran in the year after year, like
• 16:58
  Speaker 2: those last couple of years in KC. How did they differ?
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: How they differ for you from Patriots to Casey? You
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: kind of know you're on your back nine and obviously
• 17:05
  Speaker 2: you're you're stacking up a lot of years. But how
• 17:07
  Speaker 2: much does your psyche and stuff change? And your way
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: you're the way you probably go about work doesn't change,
• 17:12
  Speaker 2: but you probably have to force yourself to do, you know.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: And I've and I've said this story before with.
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: About how I ended up in Kansas City, had a
• 17:20
  Speaker 3: year left on my contract and I wanted to finish
• 17:23
  Speaker 3: up in New England and it was I'd like a
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: new contract or or trade me and Bill opted for
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: the trade and he called me and said, hey, we're
• 17:30
  Speaker 3: going to move you to Kansas City. And Puoli had
• 17:33
  Speaker 3: just taken the general manager's job, and so I said,
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: I guess I should probably call Scott.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: And that's about how long the conversation lasted.
• 17:41
  Speaker 3: And I called Scott because I had a roster bonus
• 17:43
  Speaker 3: to I think the next day, and he needed me
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: to fly in and take a physical. And you know,
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: Bill and I didn't talk for I guess the next
• 17:50
  Speaker 3: two years. And then I started coaching Ohio State and
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: I asked him. I called him and I said, what
• 17:54
  Speaker 3: do you think about coaching?
• 17:56
  Speaker 4: And you know, we talked a little bit, and so
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: still obviously close.
• 18:00
  Speaker 3: But you know, I think when you get traded and
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: haven't been somewhere for eight years, you know there's a
• 18:05
  Speaker 3: lot of emotion that that goes on.
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: You know, half the family roots for him, half the family.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: Roots there, and it's there's some bitterness.
• 18:14
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so, But then you know, that's why
• 18:16
  Speaker 3: I try to have a lot of honesty with with
• 18:18
  Speaker 3: players even now just haven't been through that.
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: But but I was.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: I was a rookie that really didn't play, that was
• 18:24
  Speaker 4: a special teams player. I was a kind of that.
• 18:27
  Speaker 3: Third four year purgatory where you're not starting, but you're around.
• 18:30
  Speaker 3: I gotta make this roster every single August. I gotta
• 18:34
  Speaker 3: I gotta make sure that that I'm on every special
• 18:36
  Speaker 3: teams and I'm I know more, I'm a backup at
• 18:39
  Speaker 3: more than one position, and I don't know. Jen, We'll see,
• 18:42
  Speaker 3: you know, come down to the third preseason game when
• 18:45
  Speaker 3: you know we got to play, and we'll see what happens.
• 18:47
  Speaker 3: And so I've been that guy. Then I got an
• 18:49
  Speaker 3: opportunity to be a free agent. Wasn't a cash free agent.
• 18:52
  Speaker 3: It was an opportunity free agent. It wasn't hey take
• 18:55
  Speaker 3: the money, take the biggest contract. It was take the
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: best opportunity and then work my way into a contract
• 19:01
  Speaker 3: where I was a player that was was making good money,
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: that needed to perform, that needed to make sure that
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: he was earning that contract.
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: And then I was a veteran player who.
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: Probably and not probably, but who wasn't as good as
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: he was when he was in his tenth or eleventh
• 19:17
  Speaker 3: year that had to be a leader and try to
• 19:19
  Speaker 3: get tom Ba Lee and Derrick Johnson and you know
• 19:22
  Speaker 3: some of these guys Jamal Charles Ryan suck up, for example,
• 19:26
  Speaker 3: we were a young team in Kansas City, but that
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: somebody that had to lead and try to be a
• 19:30
  Speaker 3: coach on a field.
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because being being a safe like being at
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: the in here about the being with the Redskins for
• 19:38
  Speaker 2: five years and you go and like they don't they don't,
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: like you know, a deal doesn't work out, or you
• 19:43
  Speaker 2: guys come in, you guys offer some Redskins I want
• 19:46
  Speaker 2: to match and you're like wanting to go back. You're like,
• 19:47
  Speaker 2: you know, you're on the phone. You're like, yeahda YadA YadA,
• 19:49
  Speaker 2: this that the other. And when you go to a
• 19:51
  Speaker 2: new team, like that bitterness you were talking about, you're
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: kind of like, you know, half the family roots for them.
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: You kind of you when we played him last year,
• 19:59
  Speaker 2: like I'm hell, I was in the I was in
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: the Meetia room with you guys.
• 20:04
  Speaker 4: Carter had West Carter.
• 20:06
  Speaker 3: They played the Saints in two thousand and I guess
• 20:08
  Speaker 3: it would have been nine Monday night and Castle and
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: Matt and Lauren came over and Jen made dinner on
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: a Monday night and Carter came down with a Welker
• 20:16
  Speaker 3: jersey engines like take that goddamn jersey off, and he's
• 20:20
  Speaker 3: It's like Welker's my boy. And Jen's like, no, we're
• 20:22
  Speaker 3: not rooting, like this is a really this is a
• 20:24
  Speaker 3: root for the Saints night. Yeah, and Carter's like, no,
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: like Welker's my boy, I'm like wearing his jersey. So
• 20:30
  Speaker 3: it was, but that's kind of we always half the
• 20:34
  Speaker 3: team will root, half the family root for the Warriors,
• 20:36
  Speaker 3: and half the other team will root for the Raptors.
• 20:39
  Speaker 4: And just so he can have some banter in.
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: The house, Yeah, did you know you were always going
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: to coach?
• 20:44
  Speaker 4: I think I probably did, but it did you know?
• 20:47
  Speaker 3: I was so focused on trying to play, and I think,
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: like you guys, and when you get done playing, there's
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: so much that you want to do in the off season.
• 20:53
  Speaker 3: And obviously train, but whether you want to travel or
• 20:56
  Speaker 3: hang out or catch up or whatever you want to do,
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: go back, in our.
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: Case, back to Ohio.
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: And I tried not to really think about it, because
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: when you start thinking, I think about your next career,
• 21:07
  Speaker 3: then you're really not thinking that football. Yeah, And so
• 21:11
  Speaker 3: I didn't really want to think about that until I
• 21:13
  Speaker 3: probably got to Kansas City. I was like, Okay, we
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: probably got to find out what we want to do
• 21:17
  Speaker 3: after we get done playing.
• 21:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And that's what it started to hit is when
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: you're in Yeah.
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: And then it kind of all it really happened fast.
• 21:23
  Speaker 3: I was doing the Players Association. Yeah, we were in
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: the kind of the CBA negotiations, and I was on
• 21:30
  Speaker 3: the executive committee. So we would fly to different places
• 21:34
  Speaker 3: in the country and have meetings for a week. They
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: would always change it up. We'd go to Washington, New York, Minneapolis, Chicago,
• 21:40
  Speaker 3: and that would all come in on like Sunday, and
• 21:43
  Speaker 3: then you'd be gone till like Thursday. And so I
• 21:46
  Speaker 3: knew that as soon as we put pen to paper
• 21:48
  Speaker 3: that I was going to retire. Well, on Memorial Day,
• 21:51
  Speaker 3: Jim Trussell got fired at Ohio State and they named
• 21:53
  Speaker 3: Luke Fickle the interim head coach. Well, Luke was coaching
• 21:56
  Speaker 3: linebackers and he was the defensive coordinator. So looke on
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: make whatever I don't know, twenty first or whatever it was,
• 22:03
  Speaker 3: the Memorial Day fell in that year. Needed a linebacker coach, right,
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: and there weren't you know, a lot of guys have
• 22:09
  Speaker 3: already had jobs and everything else.
• 22:10
  Speaker 4: And so I was like, man, I need a reason
• 22:12
  Speaker 4: to retire.
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: And he came over and talked to Jen and I
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: about you know, just wanted to make sure that she
• 22:17
  Speaker 3: was on board with you know what the time.
• 22:19
  Speaker 4: You know it's going to be a different schedule and
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: everything else, and you guys are tight. Yeah. No, Yeah.
• 22:24
  Speaker 4: He was the best man in my wedding. Yeah, he
• 22:25
  Speaker 4: was the best man of my wedding.
• 22:26
  Speaker 3: And now he's at Cincinnati and he was also my
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: host when I went to Ohio State.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: So he did a better job than the guy I yes, O, man,
• 22:33
  Speaker 4: I got to.
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: Call it Michigans and they messed up a little bit.
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: That's crazy. So when you transition in all that, like
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: how Tod Jin handle those hours, because when you're do
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: like college coach, that's crazy hours and it's crazy that
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: you're putting your job under fire with eighteen to like
• 22:49
  Speaker 1: twenty two year olds.
• 22:50
  Speaker 3: I don't think that she certainly didn't mind the season hours.
• 22:56
  Speaker 3: The hours that kind of catch you off guard are
• 22:58
  Speaker 3: the ones in the spring where you're gone. You literally
• 23:00
  Speaker 3: get on a plane Sunday and you're gone until Friday
• 23:04
  Speaker 3: because it's spring recruiting, and it's Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Florida, Atlanta.
• 23:11
  Speaker 3: It wasn't like just going to Akron, right and just
• 23:13
  Speaker 3: going there and driving back. It's that was the tough
• 23:16
  Speaker 3: part where I realized, like, man, like, the season is
• 23:19
  Speaker 3: the season. The schedules identical as a coach when you're
• 23:21
  Speaker 3: coaching college or you're.
• 23:22
  Speaker 4: Coaching pro.
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: Except for the fact that you know, I may check
• 23:27
  Speaker 3: in on a couple guys or text them during the
• 23:29
  Speaker 3: week at night or something like.
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: But in college it's it's twenty five text messages or
• 23:35
  Speaker 4: direct messages.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: Two jobs.
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: It is you get home and even though you might
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: get home at seven, you're sitting there at dinner and
• 23:43
  Speaker 3: a kid's direct message in you're a texting nine.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: You're like, right, do I.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: Really want to do?
• 23:48
  Speaker 2: How much does it suck? Like stroking like the high
• 23:50
  Speaker 2: school kids off?
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: Well, it's really become an issue. And I think that
• 23:55
  Speaker 3: you look at all the guys and not that everybody
• 23:57
  Speaker 3: you know. A lot of five stars make it, and
• 23:59
  Speaker 3: a lot of five star ours get drafted in the
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: first round and become great players. A lot of five
• 24:02
  Speaker 3: stars fade away and and you never hear from them again.
• 24:05
  Speaker 3: And you know, it's the reason why our league is
• 24:08
  Speaker 3: made up of guys from Michigan, Ohio State Notre Dame,
• 24:11
  Speaker 3: Penn State, Brascama and maybe eventually we'll get down in Nebraska.
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: And then second in our second podcast, Alabama and Greatest
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: come Back.
• 24:22
  Speaker 4: All go from everywhere. Proximuly got hurt, you guys, Greatest
• 24:26
  Speaker 4: come Back. And so I can't what happens is they developed.
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: They everybody develops at different levels. And you know, I
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: think that that's it's it's called the recruiting. Like these
• 24:38
  Speaker 3: parents nowadays, and they're they're so involved, and these parents
• 24:41
  Speaker 3: are taking pictures with with their kids on these recruiting
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: visits and jerseys and stuff like that, and I'm thinking
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: they have no idea what it's really about to happen
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: as soon as they sign.
• 24:51
  Speaker 4: Obviously I did. I was a player.
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: I went through the recruiting. I got there, and you know,
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: they try to beat the ship out of you. And
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: and then I did it as a coach, and it's
• 24:59
  Speaker 3: called recruiting. And I remember being on a visit at
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: Boston College and sitting there and listening to the parents say,
• 25:06
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, you should have seen Johnny in the
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: championship game.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: He was amazing. And the coaches are like.
• 25:11
  Speaker 3: Oh wow, And I'm just rolling my eyes, and I'm thinking,

• 26:09
  Speaker 4: Well, I think you tried to do the best job
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: at the job that you have.
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: And then, you know, I've never you know, there's a
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: lot of guys that work the phones in college, like
• 26:16
  Speaker 3: they're calling right now. Hey, you know I heard so

• 26:27
  Speaker 4: I've never called anybody.
• 26:28
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 26:28
  Speaker 3: Bill O'Brien got the job with the Texans and he
• 26:31
  Speaker 3: called me after the bowl game at Ohio State. You know,
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: we had a little break after the Orange Bowl, and
• 26:36
  Speaker 3: he said, you know, I'm gonna take this job and
• 26:39
  Speaker 3: would like you to be the linebacker coach. And Jenn
• 26:41
  Speaker 3: and I talked about it and decided that, you know,
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: going back to the NFL where we spent fourteen years
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: would be the best thing. And then was the linebacker coach.
• 26:49
  Speaker 3: And then you know, Chip Kelly called and asked the interview.
• 26:52
  Speaker 3: As DC went out there interview, decided not to take it,
• 26:56
  Speaker 3: stayed with Houston.
• 26:57
  Speaker 2: Is that was that organ?
• 26:58
  Speaker 4: No, that was at San Fran.
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay, I was.
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: At San fram He called me. I was on a
• 27:03
  Speaker 3: chairlift in Utah and I got the boys on either
• 27:06
  Speaker 3: side of me, and Jen's back at the lodge and hello,
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: and he's like, hey, I want you to I said,
• 27:12
  Speaker 3: I don't have I don't have a single notebook. I

• 27:16
  Speaker 3: show up in snowpants.
• 27:17
  Speaker 4: And a T shirt.
• 27:18
  Speaker 3: He's like, just let's talk ball. So it was really
• 27:20
  Speaker 3: the best way to do an interview. Everybody comes in
• 27:22
  Speaker 3: with a presentation, a booklet and a book and a
• 27:25
  Speaker 3: package and a PowerPoint.
• 27:27
  Speaker 4: I rolled in there with a couple of bar napkins,
• 27:29
  Speaker 4: a couple of notes.
• 27:30
  Speaker 1: On a barn a bar napkin. Swear to God, that's awesome.
• 27:34
  Speaker 3: Because I said, listen, I owe these kids at least
• 27:36
  Speaker 3: the rest of this trip. It was like a to
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: maybe two and a half day ski trip. And I said,
• 27:41
  Speaker 3: I this is our first day, Like, I cannot come
• 27:43
  Speaker 3: out there until these guys get on a plane back
• 27:45
  Speaker 3: to Houston and then I'll fly to San Fran. And
• 27:48
  Speaker 3: so they flew back after the trip, which was like
• 27:50
  Speaker 3: two days. It was like Saturday, Sunday or whatever it was,
• 27:52
  Speaker 3: and then I went out to San Franz. Didn't end
• 27:55
  Speaker 3: up taking it. But my point is you just do
• 27:58
  Speaker 3: the best job and the job that you have, and
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: then usually people.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: Come find you.

• 28:20
  Speaker 1: We're just the best man.
• 28:21
  Speaker 4: Who do you call? Who's in charge?
• 28:23
  Speaker 1: Tom Condon? Baby, that's my guy?
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: Guy is he? Yeah?
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: He's the man. Pat's like my day to day.
• 28:30
  Speaker 3: Pat's the guy that he has to get tough like
• 28:31
  Speaker 3: under and then here do you go when Pat's not available?
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: Who you call?

  Speaker 1: I call Candice Rose? Yeh, that's what I called that.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: It Jathan Jonathan Hurst, no question.
• 28:38
  Speaker 4: I never talked to him in my life. Really.
• 28:41
  Speaker 2: That's what's.
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: When you when when you started to get older and
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: you started to realize like man, like I I I
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: don't got it, Like I used to kid like what
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: was that transition that was because I think to myself,
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm sitting here, You're five, going into your six,
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, like, technically, I'm you know, over the
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: hill or on top of it, I guess. And then
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: that decline starts, like for most people, right like ten,
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: people start to show a little bit or even I.
• 29:09
  Speaker 4: Mean, I think genetics has a lot to do with it,
• 29:11
  Speaker 4: training and just a lot of luck. But honestly, it
• 29:13
  Speaker 4: was Jen.
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: We went out to San We went out to San
• 29:15
  Speaker 3: Diego and I was with the Chiefs and they had
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: Ryan Matthews. He was a rookie running back and I
• 29:21
  Speaker 3: probably had eight missed tackles. I mean, I couldn't catch him.
• 29:23
  Speaker 3: I couldn't tackle him when I could catch him. And
• 29:26
  Speaker 3: I came back and I landed and I got home
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: and it was late, and she was like, how much.
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: Longer do you think you can do this?
• 29:34
  Speaker 1: Jesus, that's tough.
• 29:35
  Speaker 2: And I said, Jen, just being a realist, what year.
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: Was this for you?
• 29:40
  Speaker 3: Probably twenty ten? I think it was probably twenty ten.
• 29:43
  Speaker 3: It was the year I retired. And I was like,
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: I don't I go Was it that bad? She said,
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: you just didn't look like you were. You looked when
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: you were like twenty eight.
• 29:49
  Speaker 4: I said, well, neither do you. But I'm not telling
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: you to question.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: Oh man, she's never wants a porter and bustle with
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: the boys too.
• 30:00
  Speaker 4: She's a very bad But that was I mean, she
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: was just like, how much longer? And I was like,
• 30:04
  Speaker 4: I don't. She's like, I don't. You just don't look
• 30:07
  Speaker 4: the same, and she was, you know, but she's seen
• 30:10
  Speaker 4: I don't know.
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: And now that I'm coaching, I mean she's seen probably
• 30:13
  Speaker 3: four hundred NFL games, I mean whatever, eighteen years in
• 30:16
  Speaker 3: the NFL, nineteen years in the NFL, twenty games a year,
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: whatever it is.
• 30:20
  Speaker 4: And she's seen plenty of games.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: It's got to be a kick in the dick. Though
• 30:23
  Speaker 1: you're just like, well, like you, you have to know.
• 30:26
  Speaker 3: I think that whole line to find somebody that that
• 30:28
  Speaker 3: is honest with you, and that's a great I mean,
• 30:30
  Speaker 3: she's she's an amazing wife. I think that it's not
• 30:33
  Speaker 3: somebody that sits there and strokes you off and like,
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: oh you're so good, you do everything perfect, and I
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: mean it's honest. I mean there's when it's when it's bad.
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: It's bad, and it's you know, hey, you know I
• 30:43
  Speaker 3: come home now and she's like what what what?

  Speaker 4: job to do.
• 38:18
  Speaker 3: They do, And I think that the biggest thing that
• 38:21
  Speaker 3: I'll say about our media is that when I did
• 38:23
  Speaker 3: that polar plunge for Special Olympics in February or March
• 38:27
  Speaker 3: whatever it was down at the stadium, jumped.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: In this big ass tub of ice water, do you backflip?
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: I did that, and so.
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: It caught on and I was like somebody was joking
• 38:38
  Speaker 3: on Twitter, and I was like, yeah, if Kersky come
• 38:40
  Speaker 3: down there and I'll drown him in the water, see
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: if he can how long he can hold his breath.
• 38:43
  Speaker 3: And then next thing I know, we got like we
• 38:46
  Speaker 3: got like ten or twelve people from the media all
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: joined up and raised money to help They all jump
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: with me or after me with the kind of the
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: raised money for special Olympics.

  Speaker 1: Probably not for Will, but that that was Will. But
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: never talking about me.
• 44:10
  Speaker 3: No, every time you break the huddle and I'm like,
• 44:13
  Speaker 3: get your ass to quit, walk in the line.
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: Hey, but hey, hey, let me get somewhere. The dogs
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: go to the pound, my baby, I thought in.
• 44:22

• 44:24
  Speaker 2: you should have saw me today me break down the hunt.
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: That's not true.
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: That's very true. Hey, I've been all my leaders stuff
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: like puppy.
• 44:32
  Speaker 1: Hey, that's not true. Actually it's true, I would say,
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: And leadership has grown this year.
• 44:40
  Speaker 4: It has been more than evident. Love that hey, more
• 44:47
  Speaker 4: than evident.
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: I know what I was last year, and it was
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: me now I'm fixing it.
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: It was like transitional.
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: It wasn't transitional. It was me thinking I was better
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: than I actually was nothing more.
• 44:58
  Speaker 4: We talk all the time.
• 45:00
  Speaker 3: Wait, and it was funny because he's like, they walked
• 45:05
  Speaker 3: by my office and I'm like Taylor, and he's like,
• 45:08
  Speaker 3: I'm like, it's not every time you come in here.
• 45:10
  Speaker 4: It's not like I'm not.
• 45:11
  Speaker 3: Sometimes sometimes it is bad, but then I try to say, hey,
• 45:15
  Speaker 3: this is when this is what we're doing good. And
• 45:17
  Speaker 3: it's been more than evident as far as just being
• 45:19
  Speaker 3: positive leader, getting guys going, what.
• 45:22
  Speaker 2: Do you think you're hey, I see you.
• 45:26
  Speaker 4: Got you up out of hey.
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: Uh you already said, oh my dude, But I'm telling
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: you we've actually had that conversation. I was like, because
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: because of you. Yeah, he was. I told Will when
• 45:40
  Speaker 1: we met.
• 45:41
  Speaker 2: Not enjoyed not enjoying this anymore. Boys, all my close.
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: Friends and the team that I get really like tight
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: with either get cut or injured metten Berger camp and
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: narrow you.
• 45:50
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm not really sure what to say.
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: I don't know what to say either.
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: So you're you're going from you're one to two as
• 45:57
  Speaker 2: a as a head coach. That's what I wanted transition
• 45:59
  Speaker 2: to four years. When to take a little minute, what
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: do you think your big biggest changes are as a
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: head coach from you're one to two.
• 46:06
  Speaker 3: I'm trying to just be more consistent, and I don't
• 46:09
  Speaker 3: know if I am. I'm trying to be more consistent
• 46:12
  Speaker 3: and hopes that it carries over to the players and
• 46:14
  Speaker 3: to the meetings and to the field. I mean, one
• 46:18
  Speaker 3: week we're here, we're beating the Super Bowl champions, We're
• 46:22
  Speaker 3: beating teams that make the playoffs, that are winning playoff games,
• 46:25
  Speaker 3: and then you know, the next week or a few
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: weeks later, we're not at our best. And so I
• 46:30
  Speaker 3: got to figure out how we we get and stay
• 46:32
  Speaker 3: at this level weekend and week out. So I think
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: that it starts with consistency. I think that, and I
• 46:39
  Speaker 3: think we pulled back. We try to change the schedule
• 46:41
  Speaker 3: a little bit, no tas. I don't think we needed
• 46:43
  Speaker 3: to run as many team reps as as we ran
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: last year because we're putting in two new systems, and
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: I felt like it was important that we got a
• 46:50
  Speaker 3: lot of work at that and I based on what
• 46:53
  Speaker 3: I saw, I thought we had a productive spring and
• 46:55
  Speaker 3: a healthy spring, which is most important. So we change
• 46:58
  Speaker 3: the schedule a little bit, and so you know, we'll
• 47:00
  Speaker 3: try to do that.
• 47:01
  Speaker 4: In training camp as well.
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: I think I think I know where some of the
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: road bumps are, where some of the speed bumps are,
• 47:06
  Speaker 3: and I can try to avoid them. Not that you
• 47:08
  Speaker 3: know distractions are going to happen, it's just how we
• 47:11
  Speaker 3: handle them. But I think some of these things that
• 47:12
  Speaker 3: come up, I was like, oh yeah, I remember that
• 47:14
  Speaker 3: happened last year? Like whatever, like we'll just do this
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: instead of what we did last year.
• 47:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and when you say try to be more consistent,
• 47:21
  Speaker 2: you hope? Uh what like where where would you find
• 47:24
  Speaker 2: kind of those?
• 47:26
  Speaker 3: Just continue to continue the message, you know, how do
• 47:30
  Speaker 3: I allow guys to make mistakes? I think that's that's
• 47:33
  Speaker 3: critical continuing to think about that is how do I
• 47:37
  Speaker 3: let guys?
• 47:37
  Speaker 4: How do our coaches?
• 47:38
  Speaker 3: How do I let guys make mistakes as opposed to
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: just immediately correcting on them.
• 47:42
  Speaker 4: It's like, hey, what happened? What you see?
• 47:44
  Speaker 3: And and a lot of that is time sensitive. It's
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: you don't have a whole lot of time. But if
• 47:48
  Speaker 3: you can allow the guys to make mistakes and and
• 47:51
  Speaker 3: and ask them, hey, if they don't know, then then
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: you got to fix it and you got to teach them.
• 47:55
  Speaker 3: But if they know, they're like exactly like oy, I
• 47:57
  Speaker 3: got the second widest and I got buried down on
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: the guard and or a guy buried down on the
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: tackle and the end spiked inside. Well, then he knows
• 48:06
  Speaker 3: that he just has to fix it and go on.
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: We don't have to sit there and teach our protection
• 48:09
  Speaker 3: over again.
• 48:10
  Speaker 1: I have actually a question that I care about.
• 48:13
  Speaker 4: I know that's half an interruption. So when you say questions,
• 48:16
  Speaker 4: are your fans.
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: So we we put out something that hey, we're having
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: you on allnight, so people are gonna tweet us and
• 48:21
  Speaker 1: got youa question you'll probably see on Twitter when you
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: open it up next. Yeah, you can retweet something if
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: you want. Follow us with the buss. When you guys
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: go through cuts and after that fourth preseason game, what
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: like is it just you and John let's say said,
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: or is it the whole coaching staff and like you
• 48:36
  Speaker 1: guys set down in those last three four will confidents
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: like what do you guys do? Do you guys like
• 48:39
  Speaker 1: to say?
• 48:40
  Speaker 4: Like that is a great question.
• 48:44
  Speaker 3: So there's always input from John Staff, who is the
• 48:47
  Speaker 3: scouting department and the coaching staff, and I try to
• 48:50
  Speaker 3: do my best to represent them, and ultimately we have meetings,
• 48:55
  Speaker 3: you know, and John and I listen to what the
• 48:57
  Speaker 3: coaches say as far as it relates to personnel. But
• 49:00
  Speaker 3: at the end of the day, it's John and I
• 49:02
  Speaker 3: that have conversations and we are going to make the decisions.
• 49:06
  Speaker 4: And you know, I'm lucky to be included on that.
• 49:09
  Speaker 3: He's got the final say, but I would say that we,
• 49:12
  Speaker 3: you know, find a way to come to an agreement.
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: So if you have like two guys in the fringe,
• 49:16
  Speaker 1: Let's say, like me and Jack Conklin were on the fringe,
• 49:19
  Speaker 1: like we're playing the same blah blah blah, like it's
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: really similar, and you're like, we got to get rid
• 49:23
  Speaker 1: of one of these guys. Would you have like someone
• 49:25
  Speaker 1: like Keith come in and be like kind of like
• 49:27
  Speaker 1: that that that breaker vote like you and John, You
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: and John are split, and Keith say, well, this guy's
• 49:32
  Speaker 1: attitude or this guy's work ethic those types.
• 49:34
  Speaker 4: Of things, Well, I think that he would. I don't
• 49:37
  Speaker 4: think we would necessarily.
• 49:40
  Speaker 3: Have someone else, whether it be the position coach or
• 49:42
  Speaker 3: a scout break any tie, but what we would try
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: to do is look for special teams, value, versatility, Can
• 49:50
  Speaker 3: this guy play another position?
• 49:54
  Speaker 4: How is this guy in the locker room. I'm just
• 49:55
  Speaker 4: trying to look at.
• 49:56
  Speaker 3: Examples that you could use to to differ and shaate
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: two players that are that are very similar. And I'm
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: sure that money would even play a part in it,
• 50:06
  Speaker 3: you know, when you got down to you know, the sixth,
• 50:09
  Speaker 3: fifth or sixth tiebreaker as far as with the player
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: or is. I mean, this's got to be that we're
• 50:14
  Speaker 3: talking about the fifty third guy on the roster, because
• 50:17
  Speaker 3: if we're having this a heart of conversation for these
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: two guys, maybe these two guys are better than someone else.
• 50:22
  Speaker 3: And so you, yeah, you're saying, like, if these guys
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: are so similar, they're probably better than someone else. And
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: you got to keep the best the right fifty three
• 50:30
  Speaker 3: and so you have to manufacture and maneuver things around.
• 50:34
  Speaker 2: I got you.
• 50:35
  Speaker 4: Does this guy have practice squad eligibility? Does this guy not?
• 50:38
  Speaker 4: You know, I think there's a lot more that goes
• 50:40
  Speaker 4: into it.
• 50:41
  Speaker 1: I had one more, but I forget already.
• 50:43
  Speaker 2: When you're looking at these stats, yep, which category like
• 50:46
  Speaker 2: which it's probably tuddy, but which stat stands out like them?
• 50:52
  Speaker 2: Not not in total? Like one play? Which stat are
• 50:55
  Speaker 2: you looking at here?
• 50:55
  Speaker 5: That it was the most memorab of that which my
• 50:58
  Speaker 5: rookie year, oh really rookie year playoff game against the Patriots,
• 51:03
  Speaker 5: stripsack drew Bledsoe in a two.
• 51:07
  Speaker 4: Minute drill at the end of the game. We won
• 51:08
  Speaker 4: seven three to go to the issue left right tackle.
• 51:11
  Speaker 4: That's Bruce Armstrong, left tackle.
• 51:14
  Speaker 1: That's impressive.
• 51:16
  Speaker 2: Did that it's solid.
• 51:17
  Speaker 1: So stats here for anybody listening and can't see this
• 51:19
  Speaker 1: paper tackle seventy four?
• 51:21
  Speaker 3: Do we really think that seventy four? Do we think
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: that's that's seven four hundred and sixty three? See how
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: that line like cuts it off.
• 51:28
  Speaker 2: I think it's seventy four.
• 51:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I see that. That's definitely that's there's a little
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: line there.
• 51:33
  Speaker 3: And they count quarterbacks sacks, tackle and I had fifty
• 51:36
  Speaker 3: seven of those.
• 51:37
  Speaker 1: How'd you fit? Yeah? Well, okay, anyway, anyway, stats quarterback sacks,
• 51:42
  Speaker 1: fifty seven interceptions, he had eleven force almost he's talking oops,
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: squad meeting for force Sewan, write this down forced fumbles
• 51:52
  Speaker 1: nineteen receptions, ten touchdowns ten. Now, one thing I do
• 51:56
  Speaker 1: want to talk about when you talk about consistency, I've
• 51:58
  Speaker 1: seen how you've shown consistency in our meeting rooms, because
• 52:02
  Speaker 1: when we go to squad meetings, I feel like I
• 52:04
  Speaker 1: get a question every single time we had a squad meeting.
• 52:07
  Speaker 1: I don't know what I'm three rows back.
• 52:08
  Speaker 4: In them right in the middle. It's the middle, you do,
• 52:11
  Speaker 4: it's the middle?
• 52:12
  Speaker 1: Is but is it though? Because you got Jon still
• 52:15
  Speaker 1: get them gets It's uh, it's it's KB. It's KD
• 52:21
  Speaker 1: to be like, am I right? KB? And then it's
• 52:23
  Speaker 1: it's it's for questions meeting. I'll tell you what you
• 52:29
  Speaker 1: do do? Though, is you get Ben Jones two to
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: three times a year with staring at staring at flies man.
• 52:36
  Speaker 1: You're like, hey Ben, what yeah, what about this? He's like, uh.
• 52:41
  Speaker 3: Yeah, super smart center guy, Like he assumes like I'm
• 52:44
  Speaker 3: not going to ask him yeah, and he's just.
• 52:46
  Speaker 1: Just in mouth open swallowing bugs.
• 52:49
  Speaker 2: Dude, dude, you get tight man when when Brave calls
• 52:51
  Speaker 2: on you, I tell you what there?
• 52:53
  Speaker 1: What we did do is from my first year to now,
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: probably the most stressed I am during the season is
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: walking to the squad meetings. Love it because I'm like,
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: I'm like on edge because the thing is because you
• 53:03
  Speaker 1: know him. It's like, Hey Taylor, we blah blah blah blah. Question.
• 53:08
  Speaker 1: Now that's okay, We'll find a different left tackle if
• 53:10
  Speaker 1: you can't answer that one, Like let's let's go conkling.
• 53:13
  Speaker 1: But you know what I'm saying, that one down, John,
• 53:16
  Speaker 1: make sure we write that down. Find me a guy
• 53:17
  Speaker 1: like this guy, not that guy who can't answer questions.
• 53:20
  Speaker 2: It's solid going into squad beings. I would act. It
• 53:22
  Speaker 2: wouldn't be that because I'd be like last so I
• 53:24
  Speaker 2: always like would see him just on coffee.
• 53:26
  Speaker 4: And plus you were taking notes and you want to
• 53:28
  Speaker 4: be a coach and you will be a coach, and.
• 53:30
  Speaker 2: You were I appreciate that.
• 53:33
  Speaker 4: Yeah, that was part of our breakfast. Breakfast, you do
• 53:38
  Speaker 4: want to be a coach some day?
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: Possibly? Would you? Like, what's what's the end game for
• 53:44
  Speaker 1: you like this, Like.
• 53:45
  Speaker 3: Oh, buddy, I gotta find a way to try to
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: start and enjoin life that's got so much stress. Just
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: it's hard to turn off man, like these next couple
• 53:54
  Speaker 3: of weeks, Like yeah, I know we're gonna go on
• 53:57
  Speaker 3: vacation and watch baseball, but it's just you know, having
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: a switch to be like with the family and Carter's friends,
• 54:05
  Speaker 3: and it's not just like.
• 54:07
  Speaker 2: And not just sitting in a lot like a chair
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: just thing.
• 54:10
  Speaker 1: Ryan, you go look at that and say, Okay, I
• 54:14
  Speaker 1: can do this all day and.
• 54:16
  Speaker 4: I enjoy it. I I enjoy it.
• 54:18
  Speaker 3: But there's still time where it's like I'll be thinking
• 54:23
  Speaker 3: about what we're gonna do and how we're gonna practice,
• 54:25
  Speaker 3: or what Cleveland's gonna do, or what Indie's gonna do
• 54:29
  Speaker 3: or Jacksonville or Houston.
• 54:30
  Speaker 1: Or it's natural. It's natural for you and us to
• 54:34
  Speaker 1: be football players.
• 54:35
  Speaker 4: Sure, it's all we know it.
• 54:37
  Speaker 1: For me, I'll have a two year old daughter and
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: I'm like, it's that is harder for me to do
• 54:42
  Speaker 1: naturally than to be to go and play football.
• 54:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, But you know, I've seen you whether
• 54:48
  Speaker 3: and you know you love your girls and that's the
• 54:50
  Speaker 3: most important thing in your life.
• 54:51
  Speaker 4: It has to be.
• 54:52
  Speaker 3: And I think that I hope that the team and
• 54:54
  Speaker 3: that football is is a very close second. I try
• 54:58
  Speaker 3: to do the same way, and so fully you have
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: to find something like, guys, you're gonna gonna play and
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: you're not gonna need to work, but but you're gonna
• 55:06
  Speaker 3: need to work financially. You're not gonna have to work,
• 55:08
  Speaker 3: but you're gonna need to work for some sanity and
• 55:11
  Speaker 3: give you a reason to get up every morning and
• 55:12
  Speaker 3: go do something that that you love and that that
• 55:15
  Speaker 3: you can compete at or you know that that that
• 55:17
  Speaker 3: you don't have to just sit there and your your
• 55:19
  Speaker 3: kids are gonna be in school and they're gonna you know,
• 55:21
  Speaker 3: what are you gonna do?
• 55:22
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 55:23
  Speaker 3: So this this was something that got me up and
• 55:25
  Speaker 3: you know, kept me motivated and kept me, you know,
• 55:28
  Speaker 3: trying to compete, whether it being recruiting or game planning
• 55:31
  Speaker 3: or whatever it is.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: If you are looking for ways to you know, enjoy
• 55:35
  Speaker 1: life a little bit more. You're doing a great job
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: with that mustache.
• 55:39
  Speaker 4: Thank you. What getting mixed reviews.
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: But I think it's grown, don't say, John.
• 55:46
  Speaker 4: I think it's growing on her.
• 55:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, probably like I did in college where she was
• 55:49
  Speaker 3: scared to death of me for for two months and
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: then she finally came around.
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: I proposed the tailing in five weeks. That way, she
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: didn have a chance to figure out this guy going mind,
• 56:00
  Speaker 1: This guy's a psychopath.
• 56:02
  Speaker 4: Guy's nuts.
• 56:03
  Speaker 1: I love it, though. What made you do it though?

  Speaker 2: Little soul, little something? Though?
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: That's a total preference point, is it?
• 56:32
  Speaker 2: That's like a little a little soap patch, a little
• 56:34
  Speaker 2: bit just added it, you know.
• 56:35
  Speaker 4: I just it's too barrel and every shaved down, so
• 56:39
  Speaker 4: we'll see. I don't know. God, you guys got the
• 56:41
  Speaker 4: ink you got, you got you got ink?
• 56:43
  Speaker 1: No no ink, Nope, you got anything none. Would you
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: ever get a tattoo?
• 56:47
  Speaker 4: No way past that.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: If we win a super Bowl and I'm playing for you,
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: still we get my name tattoed in yourybody?
• 56:56
  Speaker 4: Your name?
• 56:57
  Speaker 1: No, what would you do?
• 56:59
  Speaker 4: Uh? I would do something if you wanted to make
• 57:02
  Speaker 4: a bed.
• 57:02
  Speaker 1: Matt Neely, Yeah, he's taking his head. Matt Neely said
• 57:06
  Speaker 1: he would cut off his dick for a super Bowl,
• 57:08
  Speaker 1: for a you know, super Bowl, And I I said,
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: and I have no problem saying no, I wouldn't do that.
• 57:16
  Speaker 2: Would you cut your dick off for a super Bowl?
• 57:18
  Speaker 4: No? Been married twenty years? Yeah? Probably you've got three
• 57:24
  Speaker 4: as a player. I guess he'll be married for twenty
• 57:28
  Speaker 4: years one day.
• 57:29
  Speaker 1: Would you if if if you came home, if you
• 57:32
  Speaker 1: came home holding a bag of ice? And Jay was like, oh, honey,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: would you do it? I thought you already got fixedly,
• 57:39
  Speaker 1: I had to cut my dick off, honey, We're gonna
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: win a Super Bowl. She'd be like all right, or
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: would she be upset?
• 57:44
  Speaker 2: She'd probably be on board.
• 57:45
  Speaker 4: She would be like, do you want me to do it?
• 57:49
  Speaker 4: Do you want to do it now?
• 57:50
  Speaker 1: Do you want to do it now?
• 57:51
  Speaker 2: I made the ultimate.
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: She's like warming up a knife in the fire, getting
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: ready to go and uh.
• 57:56
  Speaker 4: This one uh is for Vyble.
• 57:58
  Speaker 3: It says what characteristics and Marcus, Maria, do you also
• 58:02
  Speaker 3: see in Tom Brady.
• 58:04
  Speaker 4: Competitiveness? You know?
• 58:09
  Speaker 3: I think the one thing we talked about with Marcus
• 58:12
  Speaker 3: in the off season was as he goes into this
• 58:14
  Speaker 3: second year in this scheme, is to have a much
• 58:17
  Speaker 3: better presence. And I think that as you're learning the
• 58:21
  Speaker 3: offense for the first time like he has in the
• 58:24
  Speaker 3: previous four years, you know, it's hard to have complete
• 58:27
  Speaker 3: command of the offense. And I think that he showed
• 58:30
  Speaker 3: that in the spring as an understanding and being able
• 58:33
  Speaker 3: to tell guys, hey, this.
• 58:34
  Speaker 4: Is what you have. If guys look at him with
• 58:36
  Speaker 4: that look like I'm not really sure what.
• 58:38
  Speaker 3: I have, he's telling them. You know, he's getting the
• 58:41
  Speaker 3: alignment's right, He's able to handle the pressures, the protections,
• 58:44
  Speaker 3: and so I think that there was a much better
• 58:46
  Speaker 3: presence this year going through the spring. So do you
• 58:50
  Speaker 3: guys notice like the first couple of weeks, like they
• 58:52
  Speaker 3: were like making articles up after people came on here,
• 58:54
  Speaker 3: and people.
• 58:55
  Speaker 4: Were like quoting everybody.
• 58:56
  Speaker 3: Remember I had that conversation about the podcast how we
• 58:58
  Speaker 3: can sit here and talk for an hour over long
• 59:00
  Speaker 3: I have to sit here and talk and then they
• 59:04
  Speaker 3: write an article about it, and they use everything that
• 59:06
  Speaker 3: I'm I have said and will say as as quotes,
• 59:09
  Speaker 3: like they asked me a question and they've never, you know,
• 59:13
  Speaker 3: will never have asked me those questions. But they're going
• 59:15
  Speaker 3: to write an article about it because of being here.
• 59:18
  Speaker 3: And I and I do think that that's lazy reporting.
• 59:21
  Speaker 3: I think that's lazy. You know this this is this
• 59:24
  Speaker 3: is something different. But I'd guarantee you this week when
• 59:28
  Speaker 3: I'm gone, there will be.
• 59:29
  Speaker 4: Articles, no question around it.
• 59:33
  Speaker 1: But that's just me and it's done. It's easy that.
• 59:35
  Speaker 4: Way, Taylor, Yeah, it would, you will.
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 59:40
  Speaker 1: I was trying to think, Yeah, that is a bummer though,
• 59:43
  Speaker 1: that you can't just say what you want, like you
• 59:44
  Speaker 1: can't just like go about your business and.
• 59:48
  Speaker 3: I and I say and I tried to shut it
• 59:50
  Speaker 3: down you know. I mean, I stood up in front
• 59:51
  Speaker 3: of the team. I was like, this is stupid. You
• 59:52
  Speaker 3: guys should be doing.
• 59:53
  Speaker 4: Podcasts, just very there's no way very sportive that I said.
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 3: Listen, man, you go to have a blast, but understand
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 3: why they're gonna wrap an hour conversation. You're gonna wrap
• 1:00:04
  Speaker 3: quotation marks around it. Yeah, and they're gonna try to
• 1:00:07
  Speaker 3: fit whatever narrative they want to fit.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: And I was like, the boys, you could I could
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: tell while you were doing that meeting you were trying
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 1: to put it around, like how do I not say
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 1: this is Taylor's podcast with will you Know? You were like, hey, listen,
• 1:00:22
  Speaker 1: there's things out and then you and I locked eyes,
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: like Taylor and will a podcast.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I think that it's it's something you guys
• 1:00:30
  Speaker 3: have to be able to do stuff outside of football,
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 3: Like you have to have things that you guys enjoy doing,
• 1:00:35
  Speaker 3: having a good time. I like the fact that you
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 3: had teammates on. I like the fact that you had
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 3: Arthur on. I mean, so and hopefully that guys, will
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 3: you Know come on to I mean, I don't know
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 3: what the plans are during the season.

  Speaker 4: The boy is staying in shirts because the shirts so tight.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: You know, I had to wear ash medium I I do.
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: That's the one thing about punt team. I sit in
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: there and I try to tell these guys, I said you,
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 3: it's so hard to be an They're an offensive lineman
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 3: and then they have to turn into a linebacker a
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 3: safety like the skill set. So I'm like, why don't
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 3: we have our offensive line coach like teach the protection
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 3: part of it, like the kick slide and everything else.
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 4: Because that's why that is true.
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 1: That funny that is true that you didn't answer. Yeah,
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 1: he thinks faster may well, like I know how far.
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: The fact that it doesn't matter about it too. Yeah,
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 2: it's really bothered me. I can't wait to get on
• 1:06:05
  Speaker 2: the field tomorrow and.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 3: We have I would I will say that if it's
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 3: over fifty yards, I would say, la wan, Okay, Well,
• 1:06:14
  Speaker 3: guess what i'll have I think we'll get you.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: Really, that's interesting. I thought it. I thought it'd be
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: the opposite.
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 4: I think you get him in the in the longer.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: You think my top end is higher than his short
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 1: stubby there.
• 1:06:26
  Speaker 2: They Hey, they got a.
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: Little barn.
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 2: These try hard.
• 1:06:33
  Speaker 1: Laths been really fast. He stays in the same spot.
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 1: That's you.
• 1:06:37
  Speaker 4: I can't tell you how shown the play against the Eagles, though,
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 4: which one? Yeah, the slice is a slice.
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: I should have picked that.
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 4: Off, but I meant it's a teach tape. It's a
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 4: teach tape. Banjo.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah. My favorite part about that play was Coach Piece's
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: reaction in the locker room after the game. Him, just,
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 2: I just love coach ps. I think I think he's
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 2: a stud. Talk about him for a second.
• 1:07:02
  Speaker 4: You see the punt that he Yeah, I was just I.
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 2: Grabbed it off Twitter. I saw that the Tides tweeted
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: and I sent it to him. I'm like, yo, look
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: at you out there moving around.
• 1:07:12
  Speaker 4: I mean it looked like he caught a thousand punds.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 2: I mean it was just he changed direction too.
• 1:07:17
  Speaker 4: Fingertips boom spike.
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: I wish we had a film of Arthur Smith. We
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 1: put that out there the back pedal. No, he they
• 1:07:26
  Speaker 1: had number one rule of of catching a punt, never
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: step forward first because you can always win fast coming
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 1: in and then the center field dude, everybody plays it
• 1:07:37
  Speaker 1: at one point the figure it out.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 3: So the Dean is uh, And it was just awesome.
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 3: And the reason I let off with that is the
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 3: reaction from the players. I mean, I thought they picked
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 3: him up and I thought they were gonna drop him
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 3: and break his head.
• 1:07:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I thought something was gonna happen to him, man.
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 4: I mean, they hold him up in the air.
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 3: I mean, but the excitement that the players uh genuinely
• 1:07:56
  Speaker 3: had for for Dean. They love him, they care about him.
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 3: I know that they play hard. Obviously, you guys played
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 3: hard for him. They will play hard for him.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 4: He's a great teacher, and you know it's not easy.
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 3: You know, I got a lot of ideas and there's
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 3: a lot of things that I want to try to do,
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 3: and he, you know, he wants to combine with what
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 3: he's done, and so that's always a good conversation that
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 3: we have and a great dynamic. And you know, this
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 3: job would be difficult, you know, if Dean wasn't part
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 3: of this it was one of the first guys I called,
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 3: and he was my coordinator in New England, and you know,
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: obviously we had a respect for him and the guys
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: in Baltimore. I mean, he's coached numerous Hall of Fame
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 3: players And again last year, ray Lewis went in and
• 1:08:40
  Speaker 3: he sheepishly came and asked me could he go to
• 1:08:42
  Speaker 3: the induction centremon I'm like, are you kidding me? Like,
• 1:08:44
  Speaker 3: We'll get you a flight, we'll get you back, get
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 3: you wherever you need to get to. And it was
• 1:08:48
  Speaker 3: like during camp and again Ed Reid's going in this
• 1:08:51
  Speaker 3: year and Ed Reid invited him and he came back
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 3: and He's like, you know you think I can And
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 3: I'm like, yes, of.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 4: Course you can't.
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 3: Like any of our coaches coach Hall of famers, And
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 3: they asked him to come. You can have the day
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 3: off during training camp to go be with a player
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 3: that you coaches going to the Hall of Fame.
• 1:09:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, because he was going to retire after his Baltimore
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 2: he was and you got you got the old boy
• 1:09:10
  Speaker 2: to come back.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's recruiting.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 2: Was that was it was it really hard getting him
• 1:09:14
  Speaker 2: to come back.
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 3: Well, I mean I think that he had set his
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 3: mind up and that him and Mel they have you know,
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 3: they have a vacation home or a retirement home that
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 3: they enjoy spending time at.
• 1:09:23
  Speaker 4: And I think that he was going to do a
• 1:09:25
  Speaker 4: lot of that and and go spend time with his wife.
• 1:09:27
  Speaker 3: And then you know, after, you know, I probably was
• 1:09:30
  Speaker 3: a weak conversation or dialogue that we had, and then
• 1:09:34
  Speaker 3: you know, he made the commitment to join us, and
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 3: I'm glad that he is.
• 1:09:38
  Speaker 1: Braves.
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 2: Hang on one question, It's a fun one. Would you
• 1:09:42
