• 5:57
  Speaker 1: damn bam. Joshua Williams. Welcome to the National Football League.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: You had great coverage by man, but Tee Haggins was
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: just better and Joe Burrow through him a perfect ball.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: Tee Haggins makes the play. And as for the play
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: call by Zach Taylor, in the words of Bill Raftery onion, Yeah, gutsie.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: Whoa gutsie to say the least, of course, it's much
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: easier to make gutsie play calls when they are being
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: executed by Joe Burrow. The Bengals quarterback, who turns twenty
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: six next Saturday, went twenty five for thirty one that's
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: eighty one percent for two hundred and eighty six yards,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: with two touchdown passes, no interceptions, and a passer rating
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: of one twenty six point six. He also ran for
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: forty six yards and a touchdown. His favorite target was
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Jamar Chase. After missing four games with a hairline hip fracture,
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: Chase had seven catches for ninety seven yards and talked
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: to Dave Lapham after the game. Jamar Chase, He's back.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: So what was it like out there? Man? Take us
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: through it? How was your conditioning? I mean, I know
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: you're shaped like crazy. Oh my god, yo yo, I
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: was so tired all that dog. It was good to
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: be back, don't you know what I'm saying? Um t
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: I and Stan was doing a good job of getting
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: me out of the game when they see me tired.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: And Zach was doing a good job on the play
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: calls and stuff too, so it was all around good. Yeah.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: I mean I figured, you know, because they told you, look,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: don't do anything, you know, get off of it, don't so,
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I mean, you go from like nothing to one hundred
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: miles an hour. It's like, man, that's a that's a
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: big shock to anybody's system. But you're a genetic Creek man.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: For you to be able to call out and play
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: like you did tonight with all the time that you talk,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: that's just unbelievable. Where does all this ability come from?
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: I really don't know, man, I was so excited to
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: come back today. I just I was really trying to
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: hold all my energy, and that's probably what happened. You know.
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: If I'd been too excited to play this game out
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: of wasted all my energy being a pregame and locker
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: room celebrating, then you know, I probably would have had
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: that game. But I had saved all my energy for
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: this game. So Somaje goes for over one hundred rushing,
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: you almost get one hundred receiving. I think that's balanced.
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's what you need to do to
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: beat good football teams. You guys have beaten the Kansas
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: City Chiefs three times in less than one calendar year.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: What yeah, I mean, we're just doing a good job
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: of executing at the right time, and and we gotta
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: win a game in a full quarter. I guess the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Chiefs it's it's unbelievable. And every game comes down to
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: you know, it's like a three point game. It's like
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: making a play or not making a play. That's what
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: it comes down to. Who asked the ball lasting who
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: makes a play exactly. And we did a good job
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: at that today. Me getting the first down, Somaja getting
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: another first down, to Tea getting another first down. So
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: that's constantly first down to keep the chains moving so
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: we can keep the ball. And when you get your
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: first down, Tee through a hell of a block for
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: you to seal the edge and get you get you
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: around the horn. And we talked about it many times,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: just wide receiver corps, so unselfish man. They'll block for
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: each other. It doesn't matter who's who's getting the glory
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: of such. Everybody does their job right. It's funny because
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: T went off on me today. I never never went
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: off on me. So when T went off on me,
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: I was a little struck because I was supposed to
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: stay and falling bounds on a two minute drill and
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: T looked at me and started going off. I didn't.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: I didn't expect him to do that. So that me.
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying, he caring and who wants
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: me to do the right thing? And I need somebody
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: to be on me like that. So good teammates, Well,
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: it's good to have you back. Good to have number
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: one back. And uh one final question. When you guys
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: come off the football field and their mixing coverages up
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: like that, who do you talk to? Do you talk
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: to the receiver coach? Do you talk to Joe who
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: gathers all the information the consensus to make the proper adjustments.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: We talked to everybody pretty much, you know. We talked
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: to Troll, we talked to Joe, and we talked to
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: Zach sometimes. So like, I mean, everyone's gonna input on
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: what's going on. We don't want to just tell one person,
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: so we gotta be on the same page out there.
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: Appreciate you, thank you, welcome back, Appreciate it. Jason was back,
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: but Joe Mixon wasn't. He missed the second straight game
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: after failing to clear concussion protocol. Awesome. I J P.
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: Ryan did. Was carried twenty one times for one hundred
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: six yards and catch six passes for forty nine more.
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: Here's Joe Burrow on p Rhyan. I'm so happy that
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: he's taken this opportunity and done what he's done with
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: it because he's one of those guys that you love
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: being around, love being around every single day brings a
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: juice so consistent, day in and day out. He's going
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: to get you two or three if there's nothing there,
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: and that's that's valuable. Sabaj's one hundred yard rushing performance
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: was the third of his NFL career and his first
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: in a Bengals uniform. The Bengals Booth Podcast is presented

  Speaker 1: learn more. The Bengals made two huge defensive plays in
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: the fourth quarter that made their win possible. Bow First,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: Jermaine Pratt ripped the ball away from Travis Kelsey and
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: then recovered the fumble with the Bengals trailing by four,
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: The offense capitalized with a fifty three yard touchdown drive
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: and took the lead for good on Burrow's touchdown pass
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: to Chris Evans. And then, after Kansas City drove to
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: the Bengals thirty three with less than four minutes to go,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Joseph Osi sack Mahomes on third down in three and
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: the Chiefs missed a fifty five yard game tying field
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: goal attempt on the next play. Kansas City never got
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: the ball back. I caught up with Osai in front
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: of his locker. It was it was scary for a second,
• 11:40
  Speaker 1: because you know, I knew we had a spy player,
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: So I knew I had inside or outside go, so
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: I took. I chose to take inside, but he got
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: away from me. And you know he's so dangerous when
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: he breaks pocket. You know he can he can throw
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: from multiple different angles. So I was just trying to
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: get him, get him back and get him back and
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: saying get him on the ground just such as possible.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: So a little bit scary, but I'm glad I've never
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: gonna get it done. So cam sample is two lockers
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: over to the left. He said, ask you about the celebration. Yeah,
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: the first, the first one with the falcons. I went
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: too crazy and then they were all me about it
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: in meetings. You know, it was kind of funny. So
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: I just overcorrected and I just turned around and hug
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: my guy so that they thought that was funny. But
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: you know what I mean, it's it's all as so
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: a part of the game. To beat this team three
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: times in this calendar year. What's that mean? It means
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: it means we believe what we say. You know what
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: I mean. They gotta play us, and um, we're gonna
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: keep going. We're gonna keep stepping and one win at
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: a time, woman at a time is behind us. Now
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: next game. Jermaine Pratt makes a point at practice to
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: always talk about how it's about the ball. You gotta
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: for us, turnovers, etc. It's fitting a strip and to
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: recovery for share A big money pee, that's what we
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: call him. So he came up, Hugh Shore us. We
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: needed that, we needed that stop, and not only did
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: he get the stop, but he's the ball away as well,
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: so so we could have great feel position and we
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: went on too. I think we went on to put
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: up points on that on that drive. So um, big
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: play for us. He's a big key to our defense
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: and we're lucky to have him. Where are you guys
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: verbalizing it? Were you saying we need a takeaway? Of
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: course we always we always say that we always need
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: to take away every drive, either either three and out
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: or we need to take away. So you know what
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: I mean. It is what it is. No team had
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: beaten Patrick Mahomes three times in a row in his
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: NFL career. I don't know if you're aware of that.
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: It doesn't sound like it. Uh, what what does that
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: mean to you? I wasn't. I wasn't here for the
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: first two, so you have to ask someone else. But
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it's it's exciting to them. He's a
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: great player, possible, definitely a Hall of Famer. So I'm
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: pretty sure everybody who was part of the team that
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: did that. It's gonna be happy about that for sure.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: You were here for number three and made a big play. Congratulationship,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: I thank you. I want to share one more postgame interview.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: Midway through the third quarter, with the Bengals trailing by three,
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Tyler Boy dropped an easy eight yard touchdown pass. In
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: his seven years with the Bengals, do you ever remember
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: Tyler Boy dropping a sure touchdown? I don't. It doesn't
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: sting nearly as much when your team pulls out the win. Tyler, Congratulations,
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: a phenomenal win. You guys beat the Chiefs three times
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: in the calendar year of twenty twenty two. Nobody has
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: ever beaten Mahomes three times in a row. How satisfying
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: is this win? I mean, at the end of the day,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: we have a great team. You know, we play collectively
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: as a whole, and we take opportunity, we take advantage
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: of opportunities, and uh, we're gonna continue to play like
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: that because we're a force to be reckoning with. I'm
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: sure you're bummed about dropping that possible touchdown pass. You
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: had the most targets of any player in the league
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: last year without a single drop, so we know it
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: almost never happens. Did it hit you in the helmet? Yeah? Man,
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: I was just too relaxed when to play, you know,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: I usually just go go go catch it, and it
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: just it got to me. It kind of got away
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: from it hit me to face the mass. I didn't
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: even touch my hands, So I was got to tighten
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: up and just just always booked the ball in. Cousin
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: hurt nearly as badly when the team pulls out the
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: victory and you had some big catches in the in
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: the win as well. Absolutely, you know this is a
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: big win. You know, it's a message. You're a statement,
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: you know, not for us, but for everybody out there
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: and not not believing in us, you know, because we
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: still got the team and we still got the potential
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: in the talent to go where we last left off
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: last or so. I mean, it's a great win, but
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: we got to win these conference games, the division games,
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: and continue to roll. Right after the two minute warning,
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: it's third and long. Everybody's wondering to your run and
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: try to kill the clock or do you try to
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: throw a pass to basically end the game. I don't
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: know if t was open, Joe somehow threaded the needle
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: team made the catch. What were your thoughts on that play? Yeah,
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: I think it could have win either or you know,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: so Marga was toting the ball right, but it was
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: third and ten, So Zach, trust the guys we got.
• 15:52
  Speaker 1: We got the best receivers in the league, and we
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: got the best quarterback in the league. So let me
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: put the ball in our hands. You guys have kind
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: of had this mantra lately. They've got to play us.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: I think the league is recognizing that you better include
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: Cincinnati on the list when talking about the best teams
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: in the league. Absolutely, you know, um, even though we
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: got to arguably to probably the best with the toughest
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: schedule in the league, we don't care about that because
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: we are the toughest team in the league. I saw
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: we prechare ourself, you know. But at the end of
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: the day, like I continue to say, we go out
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: there and I'll execute the teams and continue to play
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: polish and play poison, play fundamental football, and then we'll
• 16:25
  Speaker 1: always continue to be on top. It's a great receiving
• 16:28
  Speaker 1: group and you're the guy that leads it. Congrats on
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: the win, Appreciate you. The Bengals move podcast is brought
• 16:33
  Speaker 1: to you in part by Bengals Picks and Ultimate Bengals.
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: They're free to play, with tickets and signed merchandise up
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: for grabs. Find both inside the Bengals app. With the win,
• 16:45
  Speaker 1: the Bengals remain in a tie for first in the
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: AFC North with Baltimore. The Ravens eked out a ten
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: nine win over Denver on Sunday after Lamar Jackson exited
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: with a knee injury. Baltimore says it's not season ending,
• 16:59
  Speaker 1: but it sounds like Jackson could miss some time. The
• 17:03
  Speaker 1: Ravens next two games are on the road in the division,
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: at Pittsburgh next week and at Cleveland the following week.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Now time for this week's radio guys recap la. We
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: love our jobs, but some days are better than others.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: And that was about as fun as it gets. What
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: a game. Another classic between the Bengals and the Chiefs.
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: And I'm still processing the fact that they beat that
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: team three times in one calendar year by a total
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: of nine points, three times by three point victories. It's
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: really quite incredible. I mean, when you look at this one,
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: No Joe Barrow does this thing. Throws for two hundred
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: and eighty six yards, two touchdowns, no interceptions, quarterback rating
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: one twenty six plus. Pete Rhyin goes for one hundred
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: and six on twenty one carries five yards of carry,
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: and then Jamar Chase comes back seven catches on eight
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: targets for ninety seven yards almost fourteen per with a
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: long of forty. I mean they're balanced. They're difficult to
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: deal with when when you've got all of that and
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: the opposite side of it. I mean, they shut down Kelsey,
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: that was the big thing. He was the second leading
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: receiver with fifty six yards. Valdo Scanning had seventy one.
• 18:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, but I mean they Mahomes didn't throw three
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: hundred yards. The Bengals have still to give up a
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: three hundred yard passing day. Mahomes had six in a
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: row coming into this football game. It's just a complete
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: team effort. Again, offense, defense, special teams. Everybody contributed, and
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: when you're playing against a team as good as the
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, everybody does have to contribute. You have
• 18:35
  Speaker 1: to play a complete game. There's no doubt. Let's talk
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: about the coffin nails moment after the two minute warning.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: What was better the throw, the catch or the call
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: by Zach Taylor, all of it. Man. I mean, you know,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: this team has what I think is a quiet confidence.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: I think they're extremely confident, but there's not a lot
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: of trash talk and all that sort of thing. And
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: I think they handle, you know, their confidence in a
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: very very likable way, except for opponents obviously, but I mean,
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: I think that they handle that so well. And for
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: Zach to go for the win, you know, to go
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: for the throat right there, you know, and it's over,
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: and then have the confidence that his quarterback will make
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: the right play, and then the receiver on the on
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: the other end of it will will as well as
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: big I mean, but I'll tell you a big thing
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: in that football game, Trey Henderson checks out, he taps out,
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: he's tired. Incomes Joseph Asai and he's going against Orlando
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Zeus Brown, a hell of a player, beats him right
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: away inside, you know, fresh legs, fresh off the bench,
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: and he just he motored man and uh and he
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: got He got Mahomes to step up in the pocket
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: and retrace the steps, took us his feet out from
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: under him and got that quarterback sack which led to
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: the fifty five yard field goal, which was wide right.
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's we're talking about roster depth. We've talked
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: about it, you know, with Joe Mixon down, with Jamar
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: chased down, and even when guys aren't down, the fact
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: that you can roll people in and have confidence rolling
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: a bunch of guys in and Osi made a huge,
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: huge play, no question. I'll tell you who's really happy,
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: Tyler Boyd. He doesn't have to, you know, feel guilty
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: for the first drop of the year, or one of
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: the very few drops he's had in several years hit
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: him in the head, is that right? Yeah, it hit
• 20:24
  Speaker 1: him in the face mask. I didn't look like it
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: hit him in both hands though, too. It grazed off
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: his face mask. So I mean to me, I guess
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: he just didn't judge it right because it wasn't that difficult.
• 20:33
  Speaker 1: I mean, he never really found it properly. I guess
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking board he'd take your eyes off it. No,
• 20:38
  Speaker 1: not if it hit you in the face mask, your
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: eyes are right there. I guess it just got up
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: on him faster than he expected because you couldn't find it. Yeah,
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: it just didn't concentrate as well. As they normally would,
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: and you know, put his hands up there and goes
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: right through and hit him in the head. Unbelievable. That's
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: crazy because I mean, if there's one guy that Joe
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Burrow would feel confident throwing the ball to one hundred
• 20:59
  Speaker 1: times lot of one hundred, it would be Tyler Boyd
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: in a in a big play situation like that. But
• 21:04
  Speaker 1: you know, credit credit the Bengals. They had some miscues.
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: I mean on the big play by Carlos Dunlap, nobody
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: had an assignment error. He's unblocked, he's left unblocked. They're
• 21:14
  Speaker 1: optioning off of him, and usually the defensive end when
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: he's on block like that at that spot in the
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: goal line, he's just you know, unsure it should I close?
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: It is a run, you know what is this? And
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: he just decided, you know, he's on accounted for up
• 21:29
  Speaker 1: the field. He comes and he won. He won. He
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: guess right, If there's anything, if there's anybody that would
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: do anything to avoid contact, though initially it would be
• 21:39
  Speaker 1: Carlos and ripping up the football field is probably you know,
• 21:43
  Speaker 1: he took a chance, he rolled the dice to make
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: a big play, and if he had guess wrong, he
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: would have looked. He would have been a goat. He
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: guess right, and he was a hero for that, for
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: that particular play. But if head gutting around him, they
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: walk into the end zone. But he uh, he made
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: a decision that turned out to be the own decision
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: that would have blown that play up, and he made it.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes came into the game with a career passer
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: rating of one oh five point seven, best in NFL history.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: One of the interesting things about it. His regular season
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: passer rating is one oh five point seven. His postseason
• 22:15
  Speaker 1: passer rating is one oh five point seven. The guy's unbelievable.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: The Bengals held him a little below that today at
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: ninety eight point two. Joe Burrow outplayed him twenty five
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: for thirty one two hundred and eighty six yards, two touchdowns,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: no picks, passer rating of one twenty six point six,
• 22:30
  Speaker 1: ran for more than forty yards, ran for a touchdown.
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: We said it earlier in the week, when you take
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: on the Chiefs, your quarterback doesn't necessarily have to have
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: better stats, but he's got to match him to a
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: certain degree, and Burrow legitimately outplayed him. He did and
• 22:44
  Speaker 1: he's done it three straight times. I mean he's been
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: the victor in terms of not only the team winning
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: the football game, but him matching up with a great
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: quarterback equaling that effort or exceeding that effort. That's hard
• 22:58
  Speaker 1: to do three times in less than a calendar year
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: or so. Hats off to Joe Burrow. I mean, the
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: way he his poise is spectacular, There's there's no question
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: about it. And his patience is sometimes you have to
• 23:13
  Speaker 1: have a hurried patience, and I know that sounds contrarian,
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: but you can't be overly patient. He has just enough
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: patience where he takes it to the last instant and
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: then makes the perfect decision at the last instant. It's incredible.
• 23:29
  Speaker 1: The way he just strings the defense. He's gonna marna
• 23:32
  Speaker 1: yo yo, and he strings them along as long as
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: he possibly can, and then a high, high, high percentage
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: of the time does exactly what he should do in
• 23:41
  Speaker 1: that situation. It is mind boggling. Jermaine Pratt leads to
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: the Bengals in tackles this year. He made the play
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: of the day defensively today, ripping it away from Travis Kelsey,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: then recovering the fumble. Is Jermaine Pratt the Bengals defensive MVP.
• 23:55
  Speaker 1: I know we've got, you know, several games to go,
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: so this is not a final decision. But to this point,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: is he the Bengals defensive MVP? I mean he's he
• 24:05
  Speaker 1: makes the flash splash plays as well as, like you said,
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: he's the leading tackler on the football team as well. Now,
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: Logan Wilson missed some time with the shoulder injury. I
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: would not trade that Tannemal linebackers for any really in
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: the National Football League. I mean, you know, the offensive
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: line is playing so very well together. That linebacker group
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: is playing so very well together, particularly those two, those
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: two guys leading the way. But yeah, I mean you
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: can make a case that Jermaine Pratt could be defensive MVP.
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: But what you like about this football team, you can
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: throw a few hats in the in the ring, you know.
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: I mean, it's not just one guy in a landslide
• 24:41
  Speaker 1: kind of thing. Everybody's doing some things and a lot
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: of things that are very very high level. They're they're
• 24:47
  Speaker 1: a fun team to watch, There's no doubt about it.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: And man, they just they look adversity square in the face.
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: And say, bah, better luck next time. Let me follow
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: up on the old line. Kansas City came in fifth
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: in the the NFL and sacks more this year than
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: they had all of last year. The only sack today
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: was when Joe gave himself up at the two minute warning.
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: Chris Jones was neutralized. They had a one hundred yard rusher.
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: I mean the offensive line played a tremendous game today.
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: They did. I mean, coming into the football game the
• 25:18
  Speaker 1: Kansas City Chiefs, they were plus eighteen in the sack department.
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: And so they say that the Chiefs got two sacks,
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: the Bengals had one, so they were plus one in
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: that Bengals allowed one. Oh no, the Bengals were plus one.
• 25:32
  Speaker 1: The Chiefs allowed two, the Bengals allowed one. So the
• 25:35
  Speaker 1: Bengals go plus one in a situation where the Chiefs
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: had accumulated thirty five and given up seventeen, and they
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: were plus eighteen, which is, you know, third in the NFL.
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: So that protection pressure ratio, they were dominant in it.
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: And I thought that the Bengals stepped up, and I
• 25:53
  Speaker 1: thought the offensive line controlled line of scrimmage. You ever
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: running back average five yards of carry, you have a
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: quarterback that basically for a good part of the game,
• 26:01
  Speaker 1: well into the fourth quarter, they have not allowed a hit,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: a quarterback hit, or a quarterback sack against that football team.
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: And when you look at it, I think this football
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: game came down to two things. The guy you had
• 26:13
  Speaker 1: to deal with offensive Lewis Kelsey. They neutralized them. Guy
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: you had to deal with defensive was Jones. They neutralized them. So,
• 26:19
  Speaker 1: you know, both sides from a game plan standpoint and
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: the execution of the game plan standpoint, they took those
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: two guys contributions and minimized them big time. So in
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty two, the Bengals have owned the Kansas City Chiefs. Now,
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: next week they've got to try to beat the team
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: they can't beat, the Cleveland Browns. Joe's offer against the Browns,
• 26:38
  Speaker 1: and he's undefeated against Patrick Mahomes. And who have the
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: quarterback's been with Cleveland Browns. That's the National Football League
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: in a nutshell, it is gray z. But this football
• 26:49
  Speaker 1: team's played at a much different level than they were
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: when they went up to Cleveland. And they were playing well,
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: but you know, and you have stinkers. They happen. Man,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: everybody was so upset. The stinker happened on national TV
• 27:01
  Speaker 1: and primetime against that Cleveland Browns, of all people, knock
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: him the river. You couldn't knock him in the lake
• 27:09
  Speaker 1: up there, but knock him in the river down here. Well,
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: the Browns gave up a ton of money and maybe
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: more gets the little of their soul and making the
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: trade for Deshaun Watson. They gave up a ton of
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: draft picks as well. Now we've got the first Watson
• 27:22
  Speaker 1: versus Borough game coming up next Sunday. Yeah, and I
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: bet the speed of the game was an adjustment for Watson.
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: It would not surprise me if they move him out
• 27:36
  Speaker 1: of pocket and cut the field in half and allow
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: him to make easy reads to one side of the
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: football field instead of you know, having to look at it,
• 27:43
  Speaker 1: particularly the way Lou and Rumo is mixing things up
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: with quarterbacks that have played multiple games in the last
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: seven hundred days, not like, uh, you know, Watson, who's
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: played one game in the last seven hundred days. So
• 27:57
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be it's gonna be interesting. I
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: think the the pressure packages, how how they're going to
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: rush Watson and maybe try to make him play left
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: handed That's what Loui and Rumo does so well. He
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: makes teams play left handed. They take Kelsey away and
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: make him play left handed. You know, they take away
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: their their star player. They take away the quarterback strength
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: and make the quarterback play left handed. Whether it's with
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: his feed or his throwing arm. You have to, you know,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: minimize one and make him make you beat you using
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: the one that's not as good. He's in a Rumo
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: has done an unbelievable job of putting together game plans,
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: and I know his players appreciate it, respect it. I
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: think he's the best thing since slice bread. And they
• 28:42
  Speaker 1: want to go out there and play hard for him,
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: and they certainly are. You know what I want to
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: do tonight, go back and watch this game again. I'm
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: telling you, Instant Classic. It's the third Instant Classic in
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: less than a calendar year against the same team. Unbelievable.
• 28:57
  Speaker 1: So Cleveland comes to town next week looking to beat
• 28:59
  Speaker 1: the bank Those for the sixth consecutive time and for
• 29:03
  Speaker 1: the ninth time in their last ten meetings. Deshaun Watson
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: made us return to the field on Sunday after sitting
• 29:09
  Speaker 1: out for nearly two years, and the Browns one at
• 29:12
  Speaker 1: Houston twenty seven to fourteen. Watson was clearly rusty. He
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: threw for one hundred thirty one yards with no touchdowns,
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: one pick, and a passer rating of fifty three point four.

  Speaker 1: facts with cornerback Alan George from Andalusia, Alabama, small town
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: in the southern part of the state, not too far
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: from the Florida line. Describe Andalusia and what it was
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: like growing up there. And Lousia is a very quaint city,
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: super small, like less than nine thousand people. Um, everybody
• 30:09
  Speaker 1: knows your business, whether it's good or bad. Uh. And
• 30:12
  Speaker 1: that could be a good or bad thing. But it's
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: a good place to raise kids to get like a
• 30:18
  Speaker 1: firm foundation. Not a lot of trouble goes on down there. Um,
• 30:21
  Speaker 1: So I enjoyed living there growing up. There's there's it's
• 30:25
  Speaker 1: a there's maybe like six to nine stops lights in
• 30:29
  Speaker 1: the entire city. Um. So it's just kind of like
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: a carefree, little little world because you're like thirty minutes
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: away from the nearest interstate almost so um yeah, it's
• 30:41
  Speaker 1: kind of like your own little world because you don't
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: really get to see much of the outside world unless
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: you intentionally try and go out. How about shopping and
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. How far did you have to go
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: to get good gear and things like that? Yeah, there's
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: like there's a couple, like we have these stores downe
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: are called Hibits Sports. Um, there's just like a maybe
• 30:59
  Speaker 1: like two two of them in the city. But other
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: than that, if you're gonna like go big time shopping,
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: as we like used to call it, you had to
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: go to Dothan, which is like an hour drive away,
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: maybe like hour fifteen. So yeah, it's it's not like
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: we're so secluded. We're so away, far away from everything
• 31:18
  Speaker 1: we're visiting with Alan George, you are a four year
• 31:20
  Speaker 1: starting point guard in high school. Was basketball your first love? Yeah,
• 31:24
  Speaker 1: yeah it was. Um, it wasn't the first ward I played,
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: because I played baseball. Um, but when I started playing
• 31:31
  Speaker 1: basketball in fifth grade. I was just looking for something
• 31:35
  Speaker 1: to get me out of Andalusia of sports wise, um,
• 31:38
  Speaker 1: and I thought basketball was my ticket. And I loved
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: it completely because I didn't start playing football util later,
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: so it literally took over my whole life. Everything I
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: thought was one of the ball as life kids wearing
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: like sleeves and headbands the class and stuff like that,
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: and I really thought that was like, that was gonna
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: be my way out, but it obviously was not. What
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: changed um my dad really I stopped growing um and
• 32:03
  Speaker 1: my dad was like, son, you're either gonna be uh,
• 32:07
  Speaker 1: You're either gonna be an average height um point guard
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: or you're gonna be a big corner. And he's like, you,
• 32:15
  Speaker 1: you can either stay out here and maybe maybe get
• 32:18
  Speaker 1: a chance to go play like community college in basketball,
• 32:21
  Speaker 1: or give yourself a good chance to make it pro
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: and in football, because that's just how the game was
• 32:27
  Speaker 1: changing at the time with big, bigger corners. UM. So
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: he kind of saw it saw to the future for
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: me at a young age. So I very much thanking
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: for that. Your dad is a wise man. We are
• 32:38
  Speaker 1: talking to Alan George. When did colleges start to show
• 32:41
  Speaker 1: an interest? Oh, that's a that's another one. Yeah, because
• 32:44
  Speaker 1: I didn't start playing FOOTBA until I was fifteen. Uh,
• 32:47
  Speaker 1: So I didn't get the typical fifteen year old star
• 32:50
  Speaker 1: in high school. UM, I didn't get that type of recruitment. Uh.
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: Because a lot of people get their their recruit or
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: their their offers and stuff like early junior year and
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. But I didn't get my first offer
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: until um second semester, like basketball season of my senior year. UM,
• 33:07
  Speaker 1: I was just at lunch one day and I got
• 33:09
  Speaker 1: a call from Jacksonville University down in Florida. And from
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: that point on, I literally thought I was the top
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: of it. I thought I was the creaming a crop
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: at that point, and I was my thought none. My
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: stuff didn't stink at all, and it was it was
• 33:24
  Speaker 1: just it was. It was good to be able to
• 33:26
  Speaker 1: get noticed because, like like I said, not that many
• 33:28
  Speaker 1: people ever get to make it out from sports. So
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: I was happy to get at least one school. So
• 33:33
  Speaker 1: you ultimately chose Vanderbilt playing in the SEC while also
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: attending one of the most prestigious academic universities in the country.
• 33:41
  Speaker 1: How difficult is it to balance football in class at Vandy?
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: It's it's by far the hardest thing I've ever done
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: in my entire life. Um. It's you won't ever know
• 33:53
  Speaker 1: how it actually is unless you are in it. Um.
• 33:57
  Speaker 1: And I can't even speak for like those who go
• 33:59
  Speaker 1: to Duke or Stanford or Northwestern and stuff like that,
• 34:02
  Speaker 1: but I can't imagine that there's just pretty similar to ours,
• 34:05
  Speaker 1: so that maybe those are the only type of people
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: who would really understand, because it's it truly is extremely
• 34:12
  Speaker 1: extremely hard for especially for you're not You're not as
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: as wise as you think you are whenever you're a
• 34:19
  Speaker 1: seventeen or eighteen year old coming in. So when you
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: get up there and you have to make that crazy
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: adjustment to time management, it's it's so so so hard.
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: So I I think, I think myself that I got
• 34:32
  Speaker 1: through it, and I think the university and my support
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: system for everything that helped me get through. But it's
• 34:38
  Speaker 1: extremely trying. And if I had to go back, like
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: knowing what I know now, if I went back to seventeen,
• 34:44
  Speaker 1: there's no way that I would I could think that
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: I would put myself through it because it really is
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: so hard and I didn't know if I was that
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: mentally tough to put myself through it. Honestly, let's specifically
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: talk about football. We've all heard the old saying what
• 34:55
  Speaker 1: doesn't kill you makes you stronger. When you're at Vandy
• 34:59
  Speaker 1: and you're playing in Alabama, LSU, Texas A, and n
• 35:02
  Speaker 1: et cetera on a weekly basis, how tough is that knowing,
• 35:06
  Speaker 1: quite honestly, going into the game that you're a long shot. Yeah,
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: it's it's give and take. Really. You kind of listened
• 35:13
  Speaker 1: to the outside crowd a little bit, and maybe some
• 35:15
  Speaker 1: people use that as motivation, but it's it's kind of
• 35:19
  Speaker 1: like a they're not playing and we are, so we
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: have to be the ones to change the narrative on everything.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: So we take it with a tip on our shoulder.
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: Every game, whether we're the favorite, which might be never um,
• 35:33
  Speaker 1: but whether the favorite or not, we're gonna go into
• 35:36
  Speaker 1: the game with the utmost confidence. There's never a game
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: that I went into or that anybody at Vandy that
• 35:41
  Speaker 1: I know of went into and felt like, why are
• 35:45
  Speaker 1: we even playing this game? We know we're gonna lose.
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: We always thought that we had a great chance of winning.
• 35:49
  Speaker 1: We always felt prepared. UM. So we really don't take
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: that much outside noise, and we just kind of worry
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: about what we went on, what went on in the
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: locker room, and like our preparation, it's get or baking stronger. Yeah.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: And I was telling people that here when I was
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: in training camp, because they like to rag on me
• 36:06
  Speaker 1: going to Vandy and supporting my college and I was
• 36:09
  Speaker 1: at the beginning of the year. I was telling them
• 36:10
  Speaker 1: and we were two and old and stuff like that,
• 36:12
  Speaker 1: and uh they were they were like, yeah, you went
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: to Vandy. It doesn't really matter, but it I was like,
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: it definitely made me stronger because going there, you don't
• 36:22
  Speaker 1: always get to play with extreme high level NFL prospects
• 36:26
  Speaker 1: that go day one and stuff like that. So whenever
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: you do end up making it to the other side
• 36:31
  Speaker 1: and you are one of the ones that gets to
• 36:33
  Speaker 1: go to the NFL, um it kind of I wouldn't
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: say it makes you more comfortable, but it definitely lightens
• 36:41
  Speaker 1: your load because you're not used to playing with so
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: much help everywhere. Um So, whenever I got up here
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: and I was like, dang, my d line is superior,
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: Like they get after the quarterback my offense. I know
• 36:52
  Speaker 1: if I get them the ball, they're gonna score so
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: it makes me, It makes doing my job a lot easier.
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: I feel like it gives it just gives me a
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: lot more confidence. So at Vanderbilt in twenty nineteen, you
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: faced the LSU, the team that went on to win
• 37:05
  Speaker 1: the national championship. Joe Burrow through six touchdown passes that day.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: He did it to everybody, So don't feel bad. What
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: did you learn about Joe Burrow and Jamar Chase from
• 37:14
  Speaker 1: competing against them? I just learned they're different, And I
• 37:18
  Speaker 1: mean that in the way like they're like different different,
• 37:23
  Speaker 1: like they their preparation mentally is insane, and their chemistry
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: together is also just off the charts. You can't really
• 37:31
  Speaker 1: beat somebody once there, Once you have chemistry down, it's
• 37:34
  Speaker 1: really unbeatable. Honestly. Um So, I that was a day
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: that I took all the good things to learn from,
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: but I just threw the rest out because it's not
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: a memory that I even want to go back to.
• 37:46
  Speaker 1: I sometimes I just can't even think about it. Sorry
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: to bring it up when we're doing fun Facts with
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: Alan George. So in July, before you're finally you're a Vanderbilt,
• 37:55
  Speaker 1: you got married to a Vanderbilt cheer leader. What was
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: it like for the two of you to be married
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: as college students? Yeah, um, I mean I'm On and
• 38:03
  Speaker 1: Caitlin's relationship. Uh, definitely, it started spring semester my freshman
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: year or our freshman year, and yeah, it just blossomed
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: into something that we could have never imagined. It was.
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: We we went into it intentionally dating, and we both
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: date with intentions, not to just have fun or just
• 38:23
  Speaker 1: to have a companion and stuff like that, but it
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: was with the intention to marry and we and we
• 38:28
  Speaker 1: didn't know that. Um so it didn't come to our
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: surprise as a or to us. And going to Vandi
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: at a private university of such a tight knit community, uh,
• 38:38
  Speaker 1: it kind of forced us to be around each other
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: more and advance and grow up faster than the normal
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: twenty one year old. So um, I would say that
• 38:46
  Speaker 1: that helped accelerate our marriage, or at least the engagement process.
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: Uh So, a lot of people they used to like
• 38:53
  Speaker 1: come joke in and be like, oh, you got married
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: too young, You got married too young, You have no clue.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: We just wait till you start living with her and
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: stuff like that. But we were already kind of living
• 39:01
  Speaker 1: to like like I know a lot of people say that,
• 39:03
  Speaker 1: but we were already kind of living together at Vandy,
• 39:06
  Speaker 1: and we were both away from our family in different states,
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: so we leaned on each other a lot for like
• 39:10
  Speaker 1: our independent nature. So it definitely helped us out. If
• 39:14
  Speaker 1: anybody wants to know how you pop the question, they
• 39:17
  Speaker 1: can watch it online. Describe how you set up kind
• 39:20
  Speaker 1: of a fake photo shoot and then videotaped your proposal. Yeah,
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: I was, Um, so we had the COVID year that happened,
• 39:29
  Speaker 1: and I was planning that year to propose. I knew
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: I was going to propose that year because I wrote
• 39:35
  Speaker 1: it in my notes. Um back in like twenty nineteen
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: that in my phone, I wrote that I was I
• 39:40
  Speaker 1: had to propose to her. At least I think I said,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: marry her by so and so so and so and
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: I had a date then, But um, yeah, I was
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: planning to propose to her at the Mercer game. We
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: had Mercer to play that year, and since she's from Beaufort, Georgia,
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: I was like, Oh, this is a great game to
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: get her family and friends to come up. She won't
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: even suspect it. Maybe that you think they're coming up
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: to see their friends play at mercer or something. Um.
• 40:02
  Speaker 1: But I was like, dang, they just cut our schedule
• 40:06
  Speaker 1: and we don't have mercer anymore. We're playing a SEC
• 40:08
  Speaker 1: only schedule. So I just started thinking fast on my
• 40:10
  Speaker 1: feet and then she hit me up and she was like, hey, uh,
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: we aren't traveling to all the away games this year
• 40:17
  Speaker 1: as cheerleaders, but I want to get one more picture
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: with you in our uniforms, just to do like a
• 40:23
  Speaker 1: senior photo shoot. And I was like, okay, great. As
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: soon as soon as she said that, I got the
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: phone with her, and I was like, I started calling
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: all my teammates. I was trying to put it all together,
• 40:32
  Speaker 1: and then yeah, it just worked out that one of
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: my teammates he he was like starting his YouTube channel
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: at the time, and I was very good friends with
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: our photographer at Vandy and she, um, she was she
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: was like Andrea the other teammates. She was like, Andre,
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: can you um just act as if you're you're trying
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: to learn how to use your cameras and she just
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: got it for your YouTube channel. And I told Caitlin
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: I was I was like, she's uh. I was like,
• 40:55
  Speaker 1: Eric is gonna be filming us or shooting for us.
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: But Andre is gonna just be there trying to learn
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: from her. He's just like an apprentice, and she was
• 41:02
  Speaker 1: all in for it, and so he didn't suspect anything.
• 41:04
  Speaker 1: So when we got out there on the field, we
• 41:06
  Speaker 1: stayed the whole thing, and Erica helped out a lot,
• 41:08
  Speaker 1: and she told her to turn around and flip her hair,
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: and I was just sitting there right behind her. So
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: it all worked out really great. I recommend checking it out.
• 41:16
  Speaker 1: Easy to find on the internet if you search for
• 41:19
  Speaker 1: Alan George's proposal or something along those lines. Are you
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: a big goal setter what you just shared about writing
• 41:25
  Speaker 1: down that you planned to propose. Do you write down
• 41:27
  Speaker 1: long term goals and things like that? Yeah? I do.
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: I do try to live in the moment as much
• 41:33
  Speaker 1: as I can, but when it comes to things that
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: are way down the line, or I feel like they're
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: way down the line, I do end up trying to
• 41:40
  Speaker 1: trying to I'm a big list maker. I make a
• 41:42
  Speaker 1: lot of lists. There's so many lists on my phone,
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: so I do kind of chart out things, and my
• 41:47
  Speaker 1: wife also helps me out with that a lot. She's
• 41:49
  Speaker 1: a huge planner. She loved the plan so we have
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: like a year, like a life plan all the way
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: up to like twenty thirty. So just to trying to
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: kind of give us a base so where we're headed,
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: and need to introduce you to my sixteen year old son.
• 42:03
  Speaker 1: He could use some goal setting, trust me. So you
• 42:05
  Speaker 1: signed to the Bengals as a college free agent. Did
• 42:08
  Speaker 1: you expect to get drafted and when that didn't happen,
• 42:12
  Speaker 1: why did you sign with Cincinnati? Yeah? I did. Uh,
• 42:15
  Speaker 1: I did expect to get drafted. Um And a lot
• 42:18
  Speaker 1: of people might hear that as a surprise or something.
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: But I just believe in myself to the utmost high.
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: And I just when I came out, I was I
• 42:28
  Speaker 1: was told my coaches at Vandy like I'm doing this
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: for me, and you can believe in me or not.
• 42:33
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna bettle myself to win and if it doesn't
• 42:37
  Speaker 1: work out, then it doesn't work out. But there's not
• 42:39
  Speaker 1: gonna I'm not gonna leave any room for the what ifs,
• 42:42
  Speaker 1: like what if what if I didn't or what if
• 42:44
  Speaker 1: I did go out this year and stuff like that.
• 42:45
  Speaker 1: So uh yeah, I just I just fully bet it.
• 42:48
  Speaker 1: I bet on myself to win and come out on
• 42:50
  Speaker 1: top and when it didn't happen on draft day, I
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: had all my friends there, um big room and the
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: top of my apartment complex, and it was just like
• 42:59
  Speaker 1: it was probably one of the most sad days of
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: my life. Um because I just I, like I said,
• 43:04
  Speaker 1: I fully invested in myself and my wife did also,
• 43:06
  Speaker 1: and we were all the way up and then when
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: no one called, um because I talked to like seventeen
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: sixteen teams all leading up to draft day. People are
• 43:15
  Speaker 1: asking for my numbers and stuff like that so they
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: can reach me. Uh, and then none of them ended
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: up contacting me and my agent. So I just I
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: kind of just my dad said, I held it together
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: really well because I didn't. I didn't really show a
• 43:27
  Speaker 1: chink in the armor at all, but inside I was
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: just killed. And um, I kind of rolled onto the
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: very last Like as soon as the last draft pick
• 43:36
  Speaker 1: went across the screen, my agent called and he was like,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: all right, well, we got these teams set up, so
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: these teams set up, so it uh, it didn't it
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: didn't go the way as planned, but um, God made
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: away and that's all I could really ask for. You
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: signed with the Bengals. He had a great training camp,
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: he played almost every snap in the preseason, and then
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: you made your NFL debut in Week nine against Carolina.
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: Can you describe the emotions that went through your mind
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: and your heart as you got to make your NFL
• 44:04
  Speaker 1: day deal. I was just thinking, like, dang, I'm about
• 44:07
  Speaker 1: to run out in the field in the black jersey
• 44:10
  Speaker 1: at first, because I was like, we were white all preseasons,
• 44:12
  Speaker 1: so I was just super naive. I guess in the moment,
• 44:15
  Speaker 1: I was like, hey, we haven't won the black. They
• 44:17
  Speaker 1: haven't seen me in the black at all. I haven't
• 44:18
  Speaker 1: even seen myself. So I was just happy to be
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: out there rocking the black jerseys. Um. And then when
• 44:25
  Speaker 1: I finally got out onto the field, everything just kind
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: of it didn't feel like super preseasonist, but I definitely
• 44:35
  Speaker 1: felt more comfortable just in that setting instead of just
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: standing on the sideline street clothes or something like that.
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: I felt like, I, oh, man, this is where I
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: belong because I truly do feel that I belonged out
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: on the field, UM, and so I just I just
• 44:49
  Speaker 1: want to help out in any capacity really, whether it
• 44:52
  Speaker 1: be on actual defense or on special team. So, um,
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: I'm here to help. I'm here to serve. I'm gonna
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: give my effort, my best effort every single time I'm
• 45:01
  Speaker 1: out there. So I just take every single play, whatever snap,
• 45:05
  Speaker 1: however many snaps I get. If I get one snap
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: or if I get eighty, I'm gonna be I'm gonna
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: be thrilled, and I'm gonna give all I got. All Right,
• 45:11
  Speaker 1: a few wildcard topics for Alan George to wrap things up.
• 45:14
  Speaker 1: Do you have any hidden talents? I'm I'm I'm learning
• 45:18
  Speaker 1: ASL right now. UM. I've been learning the sign language
• 45:22
  Speaker 1: since I was maybe my mom, she's she kind of
• 45:26
  Speaker 1: got us into it. She's a teacher and she got
• 45:28
  Speaker 1: us into it, um whenever she was getting her her masters.
• 45:33
  Speaker 1: And it's just kind of something that I fell in
• 45:36
  Speaker 1: love with. And I'm pretty pretty adept in it, I
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: would say, but not anywhere where I need If I
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: if I was surrounded by a harder hearing people or
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: anybody that was deaf, but they probably would just make
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: fun of me because I signed, I signed super slow
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: right now. But I'm still learning um. But then other
• 45:52
  Speaker 1: than that, I guess I just play a lot of
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: video games. UM. And I love Call of Duty a lot. Uh,
• 45:57
  Speaker 1: And I was about. I was like on the semi
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: pro amateur UM level for a good bit, like almost
• 46:05
  Speaker 1: about the turn pro when I was fourteen years old.
• 46:08
  Speaker 1: Um uh so I was. I was pretty serious about
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: playing competitive call of duty for a long time, and
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: now East Sports has taken off to a level that
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: we did not imagine it back then. So I just
• 46:22
  Speaker 1: wonder like, maybe if I would have stuck with that,
• 46:24
  Speaker 1: maybe I would have been professional in two things and
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: that would have been kind of like a Bow Jackson
• 46:28
  Speaker 1: story or something like that. Well, I think it worked
• 46:30
  Speaker 1: out well for you, but maybe someday you can go
• 46:32
  Speaker 1: back and turn pro and East Sports. Who is your
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: all time favorite athlete in any sport and why? It's
• 46:41
  Speaker 1: probably super cliche, but I would just have to say Lebron.
• 46:44
  Speaker 1: Um love Lebron and everything he stands for. Really, he's
• 46:50
  Speaker 1: I can't imagine having that much pressure on me when
• 46:53
  Speaker 1: I was when I was eighteen years old, having the
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: whole world watch you since you were eighteen, and you
• 46:59
  Speaker 1: just really don't make the like super super wrong moves
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: off the court and on the court. So, I mean,
• 47:07
  Speaker 1: he's been criticized obviously for like things like maybe going
• 47:11
  Speaker 1: to the heat and stuff like that and starting these
• 47:13
  Speaker 1: super teams. But when you judge his character, I feel
• 47:17
  Speaker 1: like there's really not any flaws, which is it's kind
• 47:21
  Speaker 1: of hard to even wrap your mind around that that
• 47:24
  Speaker 1: somebody that's been media glorified since they were eighteen, that
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: you can't really find any flaws or some dirt or
• 47:32
  Speaker 1: bad articles on the news and stuff like that. So
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: I just I'm also looking at him for his character
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: and off the field than on the field. What do
• 47:39
  Speaker 1: you like to spend your money on. I'm pretty frugal.
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: I would say my wife is She's probably gonna hear
• 47:44
  Speaker 1: this or or reading, and she's gonna be like, yeah,
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: he does it. He hates any type of money being spent.
• 47:51
  Speaker 1: He looked at the bank account every day and if
• 47:52
  Speaker 1: something goes out, he's he's complaining about it. But I
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: would say I like to spend money on. I really
• 48:01
  Speaker 1: do love to spend money on shoes. I kind of
• 48:05
  Speaker 1: calmed that down once I started dating Caitlin Um because
• 48:11
  Speaker 1: I just realized it was bigger than me. Um. But
• 48:14
  Speaker 1: whenever we do have kids down the road, I can't
• 48:17
  Speaker 1: wait to buy them shoes I buy. I get Kaitlin
• 48:19
  Speaker 1: a new pair, I think two pairs of shoes every year.
• 48:22
  Speaker 1: Um went for a birthday and then went for Christmas.
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: So I just try to I just I love buying
• 48:27
  Speaker 1: shoes and whether they're for me or anybody else. All right,
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: final fun fact, This one's kind of deep. If you
• 48:33
  Speaker 1: could meet anybody in history, who would that person be? Oh,
• 48:38
  Speaker 1: my goodness, gracious, I think I'd go with Martin Luther
• 48:43
  Speaker 1: King maybe pick. I just want to pick his pick
• 48:46
  Speaker 1: his brain about how he dealt with what he dealt
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: with and how he how he could even have the
• 48:51
  Speaker 1: mindset to deal with it that way, because you could
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: have went you could have went with it in so
• 48:57
  Speaker 1: many different avenues. Um, maybe just sit down and have
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: lunch with him one day or something. That would be
• 49:04
  Speaker 1: so cool to just talk with him for like an
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: hour and just kind of soak up as must knowledge
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: and information that I could. So I would say him
• 49:11
  Speaker 1: if I had to do it off the cuff or
• 49:12
  Speaker 1: on the spot, and then I would just say him
• 49:15
  Speaker 1: it's an excellent answer. This has been fun. I appreciate
• 49:18
  Speaker 1: your time. Best of luck the rest of the year. Yeah,
• 49:20
