  Speaker 5: panties entering a bunch, you'd keep that back in Seattle.
• 1:34
  Speaker 3: That's right right down here that we have unbunched panties
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: on this on this broadcast.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: Uh, so, welcome into our coverage.
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: We got our QB one here as well, which we're
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: excited about Hugh Millan. But of course we do want
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: to tell you Talala Brasort Casino, make sure you get
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: to one of their kiosks. They are operating their twenty
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: four hours. They're open twenty four hours. Like I said
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: last week, they're like JS and those kiosks always open.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: So on over to the Talala Resort Casino. Uh, maybe
• 2:03
  Speaker 3: place a couple bets at the Draft Kings sports book
• 2:06
  Speaker 3: and uh, you know, juice up your enjoyment of the
• 2:09
  Speaker 3: Super Bowl. Not that you need anymore, My goodness, your
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: team's in it.
• 2:12
  Speaker 5: Well, if you're in Seattle, yeah, you don't need extra juice.
• 2:15
  Speaker 4: But it doesn't hurt.
• 2:17
  Speaker 5: Doesn't hurt, you know, because I don't think he's gonna
• 2:19
  Speaker 5: go there and bet against the Seahawks. So it's like
• 2:22
  Speaker 5: if you're hoisting a Lombardi Trophy or the Seahawks are
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: and you're hoisting a winning ticket, so win win.
• 2:28
  Speaker 3: If you took the prop bet, Hugh Millan will make
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: the trip to San Francisco and not ian forness you've
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: already cashed in at the Draft Kings Sports Block. It
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: is great to have our QB one.
• 2:38
  Speaker 4: Talky doing getting in the way of a Super Bowl.
• 2:40
  Speaker 3: Come on, come on, comes, get your stuff to the calendar.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: So so Dick Fane was tossing you guys around a
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: little bit last night.
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: Uh yeah that passive. It was like impassive. I don't
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: think he meant to. Yeah, we kind of earned it. Well,
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: just just a simple like, really, you guys are going
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: to bed this early? And I'm like, did Dick Vane
• 3:02
  Speaker 5: just say that?
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 3:03
  Speaker 5: He did, kept me up. He did this all hard
• 3:05
  Speaker 5: time falling asleep.
• 3:06
  Speaker 6: A man lives two lives, his original one and then
• 3:09
  Speaker 6: the day from which Dick Vane gives you abuse for.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 3:15
  Speaker 6: So I consider yourself on your second the first day
• 3:18
  Speaker 6: of your second life.
• 3:19
  Speaker 3: A guy nicknamed snow Globe pretty much called me a
• 3:22
  Speaker 3: pansy last night on his way to bed. Yeah all right,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: I had to rethink my life, my priorities here. So
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: if you want to come over to the house, we're
• 3:35
  Speaker 3: gonna get our drink on.
• 3:35
  Speaker 4: You think I want to come over to the house?
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Caparouse? Yeah?
• 3:45
  Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know what you did when Softie
• 3:47
  Speaker 5: dropped you off. He came walking in and all of
• 3:51
  Speaker 5: a sudden turned into like a ninety seven year old dude,
• 3:54
  Speaker 5: like shuffling around. I'm so tired. What did you do
• 3:58
  Speaker 5: to him?
• 3:59
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 4:00
  Speaker 6: He is notorious like he's he's This light switch is
• 4:03
  Speaker 6: either on or off. There's no dimmer. So you got
• 4:07
  Speaker 6: the off switch. I promise you you will experience the
• 4:10
  Speaker 6: on switch. Oh yeah, yes, oh yeah.
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, mostly on, mostly on, just no dimmer.
• 4:16
  Speaker 4: I like the way you put that.
• 4:18
  Speaker 3: All right, Well, we got a lot to discuss this week.
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: So excited to have Hugh Milling down here with us.
• 4:23
  Speaker 3: So we're gonna probably bug him to come on with
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: us every day this week since we're down here.
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: But this is the normal Monday morning quarterback session.
• 4:31
  Speaker 3: We got a game to break down, But we also
• 4:33
  Speaker 3: have an offensive coordinator that's involved in the news this
• 4:37
  Speaker 3: week and more more than involved.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: It looks like he's coaching his last game as our.
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: Offensive coordinator on Sunday, and Clint Kubiak looks like he's
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: going to take the Raiders job come Monday morning.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: So your reaction to that, what kind of thought does that.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: Breed with you?
• 4:54
  Speaker 6: Well, I think on some level it's inevitable. We talked
• 4:57
  Speaker 6: about when the Seahawks hired My McDonald, and we all
• 5:01
  Speaker 6: love the hire, but there's always that that caveat that
• 5:06
  Speaker 6: when you hire a defensive coach and he then hires
• 5:10
  Speaker 6: an offensive coach, if he does well, then he's gonna
• 5:13
  Speaker 6: move on. And there's there's more. I don't know, there's
• 5:17
  Speaker 6: more sensitivity to an offense. You know, defense is a
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: beehive offense as a symphony, like, there's a cohesion that's
• 5:24
  Speaker 6: required within the offense. So that's always one of the
• 5:28
  Speaker 6: concerns in my opinion, with hiring a defensive coaches that
• 5:32
  Speaker 6: you go through that we we could be in an
• 5:34
  Speaker 6: ideal world, we're right back in this exact stage again.
• 5:38
  Speaker 4: I do for the team.
• 5:40
  Speaker 6: But it is it does put a strain on the
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: offensive players and and then depending on you know, I
• 5:46
  Speaker 6: think I think we got it on some level with
• 5:48
  Speaker 6: whole judgment. Let's see, can they hire Within as the
• 5:51
  Speaker 6: passing game coordinator the run game coordinator. If you can
• 5:54
  Speaker 6: hire Within and you can keep the same terminology and
• 5:58
  Speaker 6: a lot of the same philosophies, then Sam Darnold's hearing
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: a lot of the same messaging. And and there's no
• 6:04
  Speaker 6: re you know, rewiring your your vernacular and what have you.
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: If you have to bring in a guy and he's
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: insistent on bringing in his terminology and and he's got
• 6:15
  Speaker 6: a vision for offense, that's that's that's that's not the
• 6:19
  Speaker 6: smoothest of transitions for the quarterback and and you know,
• 6:23
  Speaker 6: the receivers and and you know, if the alignment, if
• 6:25
  Speaker 6: the offs the line coach goes with the Raiders, Uh,
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: who is he replaced by? Is that the same terminology?
• 6:32
  Speaker 6: So it has the potential potential to be very disruptive,
• 6:38
  Speaker 6: But not by Sunday. You're mean, oh no, I'm talking
• 6:40
  Speaker 6: about next Yeah, yeah, no Sunday. I think any concerns
• 6:46
  Speaker 6: one might have, I think just the template would be,
• 6:49
  Speaker 6: is your offensive coordinator focused on winning the Super Bowl.
• 6:54
  Speaker 2: Or are you catching him watching Fernando Mendoza.
• 6:56
  Speaker 6: Well, I mean put it, put it, yeah, exactly. But
• 7:01
  Speaker 6: there's no way he could if we're talking about one
• 7:04
  Speaker 6: hundred percent of focus that he would have had without
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: being the Raider coach, there's no way that. I mean,
• 7:13
  Speaker 6: you know, almost have to be more than human to
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: not have it come down by a fraction of one percent.
• 7:21
  Speaker 6: But I just put on the tape of what the
• 7:25
  Speaker 6: Seahawks did in the NFC Championship game, and we talked
• 7:28
  Speaker 6: to I'm not going to repeat the six seven to
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: eight plays that are memorable to me where Kubiak is
• 7:36
  Speaker 6: getting wide open receivers, and I'm looking at Chris Shula,
• 7:41
  Speaker 6: the defensive coordinator for the Rams, who also was interviewing
• 7:44
  Speaker 6: for head coaching jobs, and I'm I'm looking at how
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: they're not communicating, they're not passing off, and just the
• 7:52
  Speaker 6: timing at which Seattle was timing their motions to get
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: free access for jsn up the field as opposed to
• 7:58
  Speaker 6: being a reroute the line. Like all these things, I
• 8:01
  Speaker 6: look and I say, whatever Clint Kubiak was doing to
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: try and be a head coach. It didn't prevent him
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: from you know, you dropped forty one on the forty
• 8:13
  Speaker 6: nine ers the week before. You know you're you're designing
• 8:18
  Speaker 6: multiple opportunities for wide open touchdowns, not all of which
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: Sam Darnold saw. By the way, now it didn't hurt
• 8:26
  Speaker 6: him in the net because as I described at the
• 8:28
  Speaker 6: end of the second quarter, it's three straight plays in
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: the red zone and the red zone fringe where Seahawks
• 8:33
  Speaker 6: are wide open for touchdowns. We only got one. Now,
• 8:36
  Speaker 6: now I'm not gonna say you missed two touchdowns because
• 8:39
  Speaker 6: you got it on the third. So in that sequence,
• 8:41
  Speaker 6: it actually you chewed up a little more time away
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: from the Rams and so so I don't want to
• 8:46
  Speaker 6: make it sound like they left fourteen points on the board.
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: They didn't.
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: But the point is that there was a lot of
• 8:52
  Speaker 6: good stuff that we saw from Clint Kubiak and and so, no,
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: my concern is not about the super bow. My concern
• 9:01
  Speaker 6: is about the replacement and how much overhaul is there.
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: And even if you hire from within, does it you
• 9:08
  Speaker 6: know play calling anybody. Look, I can put a sheet
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: here and and I can draw it with crayon from
• 9:15
  Speaker 6: a four year old, or let the four year old
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: draw it, and and you can stand on the sideline
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: and you can look at Okay, well that's play seventeen
• 9:23
  Speaker 6: and call. Anybody can call a play, right, but being
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: a good play caller, and we're gonna get the best
• 9:29
  Speaker 6: in the business on in less than an hour. Being
• 9:32
  Speaker 6: a good play caller is is there's a deep layer
• 9:36
  Speaker 6: of of of what how you're processing. Okay, I'm gonna
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: I did this play in the first quarter. I remember
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: how they played it. The sequence. I got to get
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: to the right hash at the right down and I'm
• 9:47
  Speaker 6: and then I'm gonna be able to hit hit that
• 9:49
  Speaker 6: look right like like the Winter Olympics are coming up.
• 9:55
  Speaker 6: I think it's beautiful watching those mogul skiers right like like, yes,
• 9:59
  Speaker 6: Slalom's right, but the mogle skiers are so so incredible, right,
• 10:03
  Speaker 6: you know. And and a good mogile skill will look
• 10:08
  Speaker 6: they say three four moguls down. He's not looking at
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: the mogul that he's he's hitting right, He's his eyes
• 10:14
  Speaker 6: are way down the hill and his brain just probably
• 10:17
  Speaker 6: like a good play caller is several moguls you know ahead,
• 10:23
  Speaker 6: and and and and layering and stacking and saying, okay,
• 10:27
  Speaker 6: this is the time to just run inside zone. This
• 10:31
  Speaker 6: is the time to take the shot, the exotic shot.
• 10:34
  Speaker 6: And yeah, you know it's on the sheet. Every play
• 10:37
  Speaker 6: every plays on the sheet, right and right in your hand.
• 10:39
  Speaker 6: You can call any of them at any time. But
• 10:41
  Speaker 6: do they have is there a is there a reason?
• 10:45
  Speaker 6: And that is a multi multi, multi layered process for
• 10:49
  Speaker 6: the good ones. And so so you can hire somebody
• 10:52
  Speaker 6: from within. That doesn't mean they can see three moguls ahead.
• 10:56
  Speaker 6: They might just be staring at their skis right and
• 11:00
  Speaker 6: and you know, and just you know, picking play number
• 11:02
  Speaker 6: seven off the crayon, you know, from the cram.
• 11:05
  Speaker 5: So I mean, I'm just really, I mean, I'm gonna
• 11:09
  Speaker 5: my four year old Grace.
• 11:10
  Speaker 4: She's got the sixty four pack of crayon.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: So now, yeah, she can draw can schemes.
• 11:16
  Speaker 4: Some people open.
• 11:17
  Speaker 2: It gives her a lot better chance.
• 11:18
  Speaker 4: And that many options. Will you have her before Sunday
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: drop a play sheet.
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: She's got a whole notebook full of them already. Yeah, okay, yeah,
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: I mean I'm just gonna tell her. I'm gonna pass
• 11:27
  Speaker 5: it on to my wife, like throw her hat in
• 11:30
  Speaker 5: the ring. I mean, if there's an opening. Now she
• 11:32
  Speaker 5: could probably anybody can call play. Apparently there's open. She's
• 11:36
  Speaker 5: got more crowns than most. Percentage wise, I mean, obviously
• 11:39
  Speaker 5: you're talking about the turnover possibilities with this whole thing.
• 11:43
  Speaker 5: I mean, if you have somebody that is considered genius,
• 11:46
  Speaker 5: like trying to replace a Mike McDonald right now, you
• 11:48
  Speaker 5: would say, probability is you're not going to get somebody
• 11:52
  Speaker 5: that has that mind.
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: I would drink brown liquor, okay, and lots of it
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: if you tell me we have to replacement.
• 11:57
  Speaker 5: Okay, Well, percentage wise, what is the bab ability of
• 12:00
  Speaker 5: fans there?
• 12:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah?
• 12:04
  Speaker 5: Yeah, he'll stay up with you, freaking animal. I'll do
• 12:11
  Speaker 5: like seven pm.
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: Night and night fans belushi.
• 12:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 12:14
  Speaker 6: Well, I'm here, and I think it's more like just
• 12:17
  Speaker 6: give yourself that extra half hour. I'm I'm kind of
• 12:20
  Speaker 6: going over to faint side on this thing. You're not wrong,
• 12:23
  Speaker 6: You're not wrong. This morning shift is ruined me as
• 12:25
  Speaker 6: far as being cool. So just based on what you've
• 12:29
  Speaker 6: seen one year, Clint Kubiak running this offense, you talked
• 12:32
  Speaker 6: about last week, scheming guys open and even more opportunities
• 12:36
  Speaker 6: than the scoreboard.
• 12:36
  Speaker 4: Maybe showed.
• 12:37
  Speaker 5: Uh, but when you're just thinking, Okay, if this does
• 12:40
  Speaker 5: come to fruition, he moves on and he's the raiders
• 12:43
  Speaker 5: next head coach.
• 12:44
  Speaker 4: Probability.
• 12:45
  Speaker 5: How difficult is it to get somebody that you feel
• 12:47
  Speaker 5: is going to be better than what you just witnessed
• 12:50
  Speaker 5: this season?
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: Great question.
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: I mean, you know, Kubiak was good enough to to
• 12:57
  Speaker 6: apparently get the attention of Tom Brady. Tom Brady was,
• 13:01
  Speaker 6: from from what I understand, more involved in this process.
• 13:04
  Speaker 6: You know, maybe for Brady, you know, a guy like
• 13:07
  Speaker 6: Mike McCarthy for example, maybe that wouldn't have worked for him.
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: Brady wants to have that clear Like, Brady's in his
• 13:14
  Speaker 6: what late forties now pushing fifty, so he gets a
• 13:18
  Speaker 6: guy in his thirties, So maybe there's a hierarchy there where,
• 13:21
  Speaker 6: whereas if he had hired a McCarthy type. I'm not
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: saying Mike McCarthy exactly, but something like that, maybe there's
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: a little bit more of a nebulous structure involved. So so,
• 13:34
  Speaker 6: but Brady, he did the game, the NFC Championship game.
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: I assume he watched the tape because he's a tape
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: months and he saw the same stuff I saw. You know,
• 13:43
  Speaker 6: and he can see more stuff than I can see
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: because he's Tom freaking Brady. So I think that he
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: looked and he saw the incline of the Seahawks get
• 13:52
  Speaker 6: you know, getting hot offensively at the end and and
• 13:56
  Speaker 6: maybe rounding into form. You know, they early on first
• 14:00
  Speaker 6: three quarters of the season, it was a you know,
• 14:03
  Speaker 6: push the ball down the field, but there was something
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: lacking in the running game. And then you know, the
• 14:09
  Speaker 6: last four or five weeks for the better part of that,
• 14:12
  Speaker 6: the running game has come alive. And then kind of
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: everything came together in terms of the play caller in
• 14:18
  Speaker 6: the playoffs in some sense with the forty one points
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: with forty nine ers and then a good showing against
• 14:22
  Speaker 6: the Rams. So he's he's aware, I'm sure if he's
• 14:26
  Speaker 6: involved with the hiring. You're talking about a guy that's
• 14:31
  Speaker 6: you know, near the top obviously, a top judged to
• 14:36
  Speaker 6: be a top handful of offensive coordinators. The probability that
• 14:41
  Speaker 6: you replace somebody that good, I mean, I would think
• 14:44
  Speaker 6: it would be less than fifty percent. You know, you
• 14:47
  Speaker 6: just got to make up for it another way. Now,
• 14:49
  Speaker 6: if you hire from within and there's that continuity, there's
• 14:52
  Speaker 6: other aspects of it, But you know, as a Seahawk fan,
• 14:57
  Speaker 6: as an air quotes analyst, I would prefer that Kubiak
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: was still around for next year.
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: Yeah that's until you see that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, there's
• 15:09
  Speaker 4: a footnote.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: To the pah.
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: Well yeah.
• 15:12
  Speaker 3: I mean, and I think you're right, and I think
• 15:15
  Speaker 3: it's relieving for people to hear that. You don't feel
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: it's going to be a distraction, And I don't either.
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: I think we're good for Sunday, but come Monday. And
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: it's not just Kubiak. I mean, it could be Benton
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: Leaves as your offensive line coach, as you mentioned, it
• 15:29
  Speaker 3: could even be add and dirty. I mean, if if
• 15:32
  Speaker 3: Clint Kubiak is sitting there saying, hey, you've got to
• 15:36
  Speaker 3: escape Mike's shadow. If ever anybody's going to take you
• 15:39
  Speaker 3: seriously as a head coaching candidate, I like you, I
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: know you know the secret sauce.
• 15:45
  Speaker 2: Why don't you come over?
• 15:46
  Speaker 3: The Raiders could end up with half of our staff
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: next year with no through no fault of Mike's as
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: a matter of fact, because.
• 15:53
  Speaker 2: Mike is open.
• 15:54
  Speaker 6: And then you know, look, Washington made a terrible mistake
• 16:01
  Speaker 6: hiring Troy Dannon. In my opinion that guy is insufferable
• 16:06
  Speaker 6: and you know he that was your opinion that that
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: that is and and and just a guy you no,
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: no decent person would ever want to work for. Uh,
• 16:17
  Speaker 6: that's a little bit of exaggeration, but I'm I'm I'm
• 16:20
  Speaker 6: saying a little bit of that for effect. But uh
• 16:23
  Speaker 6: that that is a contributor for what happened with Calen
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: de Boor. And so now you know when you start saying, Okay,
• 16:32
  Speaker 6: there's a lot of things been hitting the news lately,
• 16:37
  Speaker 6: the you sell the team, well, who's gonna who's gonna
• 16:41
  Speaker 6: buy the team?
• 16:43
  Speaker 4: Does? How much does he want to change? You know?
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: Uh, I want John Schneider to feel exactly about the
• 16:51
  Speaker 6: way he goes feels when he goes to work as
• 16:53
  Speaker 6: he does. Right now, you know, I don't want I
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: don't want any app apple Cart getting upset with with
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: the ructure. It's too successful.
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: Right. So now.
• 17:04
  Speaker 6: I have to emphasize this because it reminds me of
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: the Sam Darnold oblique. The degree to which we are
• 17:11
  Speaker 6: concerned about an unwanted event is the product of two factors,
• 17:17
  Speaker 6: probability times magnitude.
• 17:20
  Speaker 4: And I can.
• 17:21
  Speaker 6: Say, do I believe that they'll probably that whoever buys
• 17:26
  Speaker 6: the team is not going to upset the APPLICA.
• 17:30
  Speaker 4: Yes, I do. That's more probable than not.
• 17:33
  Speaker 6: Right, let's say there, but let's say there's a twenty
• 17:35
  Speaker 6: five percent chance that somebody wants to kind of, you know,
• 17:39
  Speaker 6: start pushing things around it and uh, you know, rearranging
• 17:43
  Speaker 6: it all the furniture, and to a point that it
• 17:48
  Speaker 6: kind of disrupts things. Adversely, I guess disrupting avers that's
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: a redundant, but you know what I mean. Then, then,
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: even though it's unlikely to happen, if it were to happen.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: WHOA how did that happen? I wish?
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: I wish the Allen's doesn't. Just does Jody have another
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: sister that can.
• 18:07
  Speaker 4: Buy the team?
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: Please?
• 18:08
  Speaker 4: You know, you know.
• 18:10
  Speaker 6: And and then now we're in a situation. We got this,
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: you know, brilliant defensive head coach. And that's the cost
• 18:18
  Speaker 6: of doing business with a brilliant defensive head coach.
• 18:21
  Speaker 4: His offensive coordinator.
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: If he does the job the way we want him
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: to do, he's gonna be gone. Yeah, And the offense,
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: which is more sensitive to change. The offense is going
• 18:32
  Speaker 6: to have to do more of the changing.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, Hugh Mellan is with us. We are live

  Speaker 3: about that Sunday kickoff at three point thirty.
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: We are here in San Francisco. Three of our four
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: shows all started with Bucky cracking you.
• 20:11
  Speaker 3: Know, a bottle of champagne across the stern.
• 20:15
  Speaker 4: That was a waste.
• 20:16
  Speaker 5: Next time, I'm gonna do it empty bottle and we'll
• 20:19
  Speaker 5: go ahead and finish off the booze out of it.
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: Okay.
• 20:21
  Speaker 5: I just I don't know if that Christiens things still
• 20:24
  Speaker 5: or not, but was Faine has.
• 20:25
  Speaker 3: Had an effect on Yeah, yeah, you don't waste any
• 20:28
  Speaker 3: liquorice anymore.
• 20:30
  Speaker 2: But we got our QB one here.
• 20:32
  Speaker 3: Hugh Millan is with us, Yeah, right in person here
• 20:35
  Speaker 3: at the Super Bowl. Two hours of Hugh Monday Morning
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: Quarterback Super Bowl Edition with you, and I wanted to
• 20:42
  Speaker 3: discuss with you, like I really did. Honestly, I got
• 20:46
  Speaker 3: done with this segment last week talking about how you
• 20:49
  Speaker 3: can't judge the Patriots. They're not as good defensively as
• 20:54
  Speaker 3: they showed in the playoffs, and they're not as bad
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: offensively as they showed in the playoffs because of the
• 21:00
  Speaker 3: weather conditions.
• 21:01
  Speaker 4: That they had to go out against.
• 21:02
  Speaker 3: They had two of those games where was extreme weather
• 21:05
  Speaker 3: that they were playing in. And I got done with
• 21:08
  Speaker 3: that segment, Hugh, And I'm like, that was a waste
• 21:10
  Speaker 3: of time. Wasn't that everybody knew that that was such
• 21:12
  Speaker 3: obvious content? Why did I spend time discussing that? And
• 21:16
  Speaker 3: yet it keeps popping up. I keep hearing people saying, Patriots,
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: it looks so bad on offense. How do they have
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: a chance against Mike McDonald's defense. And they're using those
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: three games as to why Drake May and the Patriots
• 21:28
  Speaker 3: are inept. Yeah, yeah, I mean they won fourteen games
• 21:31
  Speaker 3: this year. I mean, I don't know. You tell me.
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: Is that a worthwhile conversation we need to be having here.
• 21:36
  Speaker 6: Chuck, don't underestimate anything. Sam Darnold is thirty four and
• 21:41
  Speaker 6: ten in his last forty four games, and there's a
• 21:45
  Speaker 6: lot of people will tell you that none of those
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: thirty four wins were big games.
• 21:51
  Speaker 4: That not a one of them, not a single one.
• 21:54
  Speaker 6: They He played the Tennessee Titans thirty four times, so
• 22:02
  Speaker 6: he needs some team.
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: Forty one to six.
• 22:05
  Speaker 3: I remember that a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, I
• 22:08
  Speaker 3: have to yell at radio, well.
• 22:13
  Speaker 6: No, I I totally concur with that. And and it
• 22:16
  Speaker 6: was it was a mess. It was a mess against
• 22:18
  Speaker 6: the Texans at home, and then and then the second
• 22:22
  Speaker 6: half of the a FC Championship game was a mess.
• 22:25
  Speaker 6: So let's just let's just stipulate we're we're not even
• 22:28
  Speaker 6: going to discuss that either offense or defense.
• 22:31
  Speaker 4: I do think that the.
• 22:33
  Speaker 6: First half of the AFC Championship game is relevant. And
• 22:37
  Speaker 6: you know, I'm trying to creep on Drake May a
• 22:39
  Speaker 6: little bit and just kind of understand, you know, where
• 22:41
  Speaker 6: he's at because I watched the game and you know,
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: there's there's a lot of stuff on tape that you know,
• 22:50
  Speaker 6: you say, you're playing like a second year guy, first
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: or second year guy.
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: That's that's not that's not a good processing.
• 22:57
  Speaker 6: And and then of course I'm reminded that he's going
• 22:59
  Speaker 6: to be second in the MVP voting. So he was
• 23:02
  Speaker 6: doing he's doing a lot of good stuff. But in
• 23:04
  Speaker 6: that in that AFC Championship game, you know, he's he's
• 23:08
  Speaker 6: got the slot receiver on Talanoil Hufunga on outside leverage
• 23:12
  Speaker 6: like a veteran Corps. I know Matthew Stafford would have
• 23:15
  Speaker 6: said that's my matchup, right. Instead, he just throws a
• 23:17
  Speaker 6: go route up to against Patrick Shirtan and and you
• 23:22
  Speaker 6: know it's just a long foul ball. It's you know,
• 23:25
  Speaker 6: harmless where he had a chance for a huge play.
• 23:28
  Speaker 6: Then then he comes back and the the the Broncos,
• 23:32
  Speaker 6: because they have Sirtan, they like to push the coverage
• 23:35
  Speaker 6: to the trips side and they leave Pat Sertan on
• 23:39
  Speaker 6: a solo on the backside. Well he's now they they
• 23:43
  Speaker 6: take everybody and clog up the strength and he actually
• 23:47
  Speaker 6: has a nice in breaking route against off coverage against
• 23:50
  Speaker 6: Patrick Tan and he turns that down. He tries to
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: throw a hole shot. That's a long foul ball, totally
• 23:56
  Speaker 6: wasted play. You look and there's a clean passing. He
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: knew with off coverage this is the time to go
• 24:04
  Speaker 6: getst their tan, not not the go right, you know.
• 24:06
  Speaker 6: And you know there's others where he has a double
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: slant and a two man stick stick air or a
• 24:14
  Speaker 6: flat flat slant.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: Combination, and.
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: You know it's like a high school read, you know,
• 24:22
  Speaker 6: and he just he throws it to one yard in
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: the flat where he had an opportunity to get get
• 24:29
  Speaker 6: an eight ten yard completion. There's just there's a lot
• 24:32
  Speaker 6: of stuff down on the red zone.
• 24:35
  Speaker 4: This is a play.
• 24:36
  Speaker 6: If I called up my kids and said, hey, how
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: do you read dolphin check, well they would just go, well,
• 24:40
  Speaker 6: you go bum like we've had this thing. You know,
• 24:43
  Speaker 6: it's two outside guys in third, got number three to
• 24:47
  Speaker 6: the corner. You just read the outside corner. Does he
• 24:49
  Speaker 6: fall and he's got a wide open? This is a
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: high school play. He's got a wide open the AFC
• 24:54
  Speaker 6: Championship and he turns it down. His eyes are in
• 24:57
  Speaker 6: the wrong place. He takes a sack. So there's just
• 25:00
  Speaker 6: a lot of stuff where I look. He here's here's
• 25:05
  Speaker 6: a couple of things I've mentioned. I creeped on him.
• 25:07
  Speaker 6: So he went to high school in North Carolina. He's
• 25:11
  Speaker 6: got two brothers that played basketball at North Carolina. He's
• 25:14
  Speaker 6: got another brother who pitched at Florida, won a national championship.
• 25:17
  Speaker 6: His dad played a quarterback for Carolina and played briefly
• 25:22
  Speaker 6: for Tampa Bay. But he comes he's the youngest kid
• 25:25
  Speaker 6: in a family of athletes. He's and and you see
• 25:29
  Speaker 6: he's six four and a half. But he's got a
• 25:31
  Speaker 6: beautiful passing motion. I mean remember Ernie L's they called
• 25:35
  Speaker 6: the Big Easy, you know, because he's sixty three, but
• 25:37
  Speaker 6: he's got this beautiful golf. Like to me, Drake Me
• 25:40
  Speaker 6: is like the Big Easy. He looks beautiful throwing the
• 25:42
  Speaker 6: ball he's got. He's an athlete and and he's got
• 25:46
  Speaker 6: sixty one scrambles and forty one design runs like that.
• 25:49
  Speaker 6: Like here, there's an athleticism to him. But in looking
• 25:56
  Speaker 6: at okay, has he been in a big game, because
• 25:58
  Speaker 6: like think were shutting down. There's some some micd up
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: stuff with him and he's like, hey, this is really hard.
• 26:04
  Speaker 6: And and you know, like North Carolina, he played in
• 26:07
  Speaker 6: a Duke Male Bowl and a Holiday Bowl and then
• 26:11
  Speaker 6: he didn't play in a bowl his last year. You know,
• 26:13
  Speaker 6: I mean, how many big games did he really play in?
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: And you know it's possible that he could feel a
• 26:21
  Speaker 6: little bit of a squeeze around at his neck. I mean,
• 26:23
  Speaker 6: I think it's posed. I don't like to jump in.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: I'm not in his head, but that AFC champion, that
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: first half of the AFC Championship game wasn't just the
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: second half. We're throwing that away. I feel like he's
• 26:35
  Speaker 6: you know, not playing with as much confidence right.
• 26:37
  Speaker 5: Now, how about how about his legs. You're talking about
• 26:41
  Speaker 5: the athletic and he is athletic. You were talking about
• 26:43
  Speaker 5: the designed runs that they give him. Is that maybe
• 26:47
  Speaker 5: a point of emphasis that the Seahawks better be cautious
• 26:51
  Speaker 5: of it?
• 26:52
  Speaker 4: Well, most of them, uh you know.
• 26:55
  Speaker 6: When you filter it through the stat and tape for
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: from the NFL, you know you okay, I want to
• 27:02
  Speaker 6: watch these forty one design runs. Well, most of them
• 27:04
  Speaker 6: are quarterback sneaks and take a knee because they won
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: a lot of games. A lot of them are kneel down.
• 27:08
  Speaker 6: So only three of them were reed keeps where where?
• 27:12
  Speaker 6: And now assaulting the game? Laid away where he's in
• 27:15
  Speaker 6: the shotgun. You know he's he acts like he's going
• 27:18
  Speaker 6: to hand off. The line is blocking for the the
• 27:22
  Speaker 6: inside zone to the right on all the occasions. And
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: then he kept it in the alley because the end
• 27:29
  Speaker 6: crash down. That okay, that's that's fairly, that's very common football.
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: We've all seen those plays. We only had three of them. Now,
• 27:34
  Speaker 6: the quarterback draw is the key. Be aware of the
• 27:38
  Speaker 6: quarterback draw. He had a touchdown in the AFC Championship game.
• 27:41
  Speaker 6: He had others, and he has got a good feel
• 27:44
  Speaker 6: for how that plays out. Because if you with the
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: right front. See the thing is if you're if you're not,
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: if you're a play caller. And he said, I think
• 27:52
  Speaker 6: they're susceptible to the draw. The ends are way up
• 27:54
  Speaker 6: the field. It's a light box the front. And he said,
• 27:57
  Speaker 6: I think the draw is going to work here. You
• 28:00
  Speaker 6: got two choices you can out of out of a
• 28:03
  Speaker 6: one back, you can have the quarterback turn and hand
• 28:07
  Speaker 6: the ball to the running back, in which case you're
• 28:10
  Speaker 6: handing the ball to a better runner, like even the
• 28:13
  Speaker 6: best runner runner in the NFL, as a quarterback is
• 28:17
  Speaker 6: not as good as a good running back. Right, But
• 28:22
  Speaker 6: if the quarterback this is this goes back to the
• 28:24
  Speaker 6: famous Mendoza play in the National Championship game that he
• 28:28
  Speaker 6: scored the touchdown on the.
• 28:29
  Speaker 4: Fourth and fourth. That's a quarterback draw.
• 28:31
  Speaker 6: What if you say, I want to run draw Comma
• 28:35
  Speaker 6: specifically quarterback draw. Then the running back becomes an extra
• 28:39
  Speaker 6: lead blocker, so you get the uncovered lineman out in space.
• 28:42
  Speaker 6: In this case for the Patriots, it's it's the center.
• 28:46
  Speaker 6: He blocks one linebacker, then the running back blocks the other.
• 28:50
  Speaker 6: And if you have a decent athlete at quarterback, you
• 28:53
  Speaker 6: get a better play because you the running back is
• 28:56
  Speaker 6: the lead blocker. That's exactly what happened with Indiana. Now
• 28:59
  Speaker 6: in that case, that was the guard who led up
• 29:02
  Speaker 6: on the back and then their running back got the
• 29:03
  Speaker 6: other Mendoza scores the touchdown.
• 29:05
  Speaker 4: So so be alert in the red zone.
• 29:09
  Speaker 6: I know Mike McDonald and the staff is going to
• 29:11
  Speaker 6: be like, how are we building our front and being
• 29:15
  Speaker 6: aware of may who is pretty quick. As I've mentioned
• 29:19
  Speaker 6: the athleticism. I think he's reasonably twitchy for a six
• 29:22
  Speaker 6: and four and a half guy guy, but I think
• 29:25
  Speaker 6: he sees the he sets up the blocks, and he's
• 29:27
  Speaker 6: got a burst.
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: And he's strong, you know, six four and a half,
• 29:31
  Speaker 4: so he can kind of move the pocket.
• 29:32
  Speaker 6: If he gets tackled on the one a safety hits
• 29:35
  Speaker 6: to me, you know, without momentum, he could drag Julian
• 29:38
  Speaker 6: Love in for a yard and a half or two
• 29:40
  Speaker 6: extra yards into the end zone. The quarterback draw is
• 29:44
  Speaker 6: a factor in this game. And if it, even if
• 29:47
  Speaker 6: they don't even if they don't run one, Seattle's effort
• 29:50
  Speaker 6: to defend it will be a factor. Even if you
• 29:53
  Speaker 6: don't see one quarterback draw, and I think you will
• 29:55
  Speaker 6: see at least one.
• 29:56
  Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm trying to remembers has the d It's
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: been susceptible to that during the course of the year.
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: I don't remember anything standing out, any quarterback having a
• 30:06
  Speaker 3: field day with I'm pretty sure Philip.
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: Rivers didn't have a big running day against this.
• 30:15
  Speaker 3: I don't think that was in the Colts game plan
• 30:18
  Speaker 3: much that day to have him go just tuck it under.
• 30:22
  Speaker 6: But anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah, No, he stayed in his
• 30:26
  Speaker 6: rocking chair in the park six yards behind.
• 30:29
  Speaker 2: Him trying to run a quarterback draw inside a rocking chair.
• 30:33
  Speaker 2: All right, more with Hugh on the other side.
• 30:35
  Speaker 3: Yes, our Super Bowl coverage continues, and of course I
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: mentioned that we're going to have the game on Kevin
• 30:41
  Speaker 3: Harlan on the call Westwood One coming up on Sunday.
• 30:45
  Speaker 3: But postgame, don't miss you, Dick Fane, and I think
• 30:48
  Speaker 3: a cast of thousands in the postgame show, especially if
• 30:51

  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So he'll join us at nine o'clock. Today
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: it's Monday Morning quarterback, but not your run of the
• 31:34
  Speaker 3: mill Monday Morning quarterback.
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: It is Super Bowl Week.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: We are live from San Francisco, and we've got our
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: QB one right in front of us, Hugh Millan here
• 31:44
  Speaker 3: this morning, and so a lot of things to break
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: down all week long. I'll tell you one of the
• 31:48
  Speaker 3: most fascinating things to me, Hugh, is I hop my
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: admiration for how good Christian Gonzales is on the New
• 31:56
  Speaker 3: England side of the ball. And I think our best
• 31:59
  Speaker 3: player is number eleven JSN. And I don't know what
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: New England's plan is for defending JSN. But how do
• 32:09
  Speaker 3: you see those two trains colliding? Will they cross paths
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: a lot in your estimation, because that could be a
• 32:15
  Speaker 3: fantastic matchup.
• 32:17
  Speaker 6: Well, the year before Gonzales, he was traveling with all
• 32:21
  Speaker 6: the good receivers.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: He traveled almost the entire game.
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: With UH with DK Metcalf when Seattle played up there
• 32:28
  Speaker 6: in September. But now, of course, with Rabriel and a
• 32:32
  Speaker 6: new coach and a new philosophy, they didn't do nearly
• 32:36
  Speaker 6: as much.
• 32:36
  Speaker 4: Of that he was. I don't have the number he had.
• 32:39
  Speaker 6: He had I think right exactly about two hundred snaps
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: at left corner, and then he was upwards of five
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: six hundred snaps at right corner. And when he did
• 32:56
  Speaker 6: when he did flop, it was more to be on
• 32:58
  Speaker 6: the weak side of the formation. So I don't I
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: don't think you're going to see a heavy Now they
• 33:01
  Speaker 6: may change, you know, he's got two weeks to prepare.
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: But the thing about Gonzales and and and I almost
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: think of the corners as a tandem. You got Carlton
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: Davis who had been with the Lions, and you know,
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: good good corner in his own right. They're both about
• 33:18
  Speaker 6: six to one, So you see the length when you
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: watch the tape watching you know they're they're you know,
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: long armed guys that have some height and and Uh
• 33:28
  Speaker 6: and yet the strength of Gonzales and he had a
• 33:32
  Speaker 6: passer rating against a fifty eight cool and so yeah,
• 33:36
  Speaker 6: he was a top five in that and then he
• 33:39
  Speaker 6: had uh he had zero yeah, on fifty five tackles
• 33:45
  Speaker 6: on passes, he had zero mistackles. So like he's an
• 33:49
  Speaker 6: all round football player. And what impresses me is a
• 33:53
  Speaker 6: lot of times when when teams play a coverage where
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: and I already kind of referenced it before, where you say, okay,
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: we've got a trips receivers, three even four receivers occasionally
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: to one side, and then you have a single receiver
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: on the backside. Teams will they'll try and play zone
• 34:09
  Speaker 6: and they'll push the whole thing to the to the
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: three receiver side, and then they play single on the backside,
• 34:15
  Speaker 6: solo on the backside, one on one, and oftentimes that's
• 34:19
  Speaker 6: that is usually with a good corner, it's press coverage.
• 34:22
  Speaker 6: And when he play press, which is another synonym for
• 34:24
  Speaker 6: bump and run, then you can take away a lot
• 34:28
  Speaker 6: of the quick game that you know, quick outs are
• 34:32
  Speaker 6: going to convert to fades. Twelve yard outs are gonna
• 34:35
  Speaker 6: convert to fads. Even a little skinny post convert to fates.
• 34:38
  Speaker 6: That's that's convert to fade. Means if you're telling a
• 34:42
  Speaker 6: wide receiver, hey, and don't run a hitch route if
• 34:45
  Speaker 6: they're pressed. If the corners off, you can run the hitch,
• 34:48
  Speaker 6: you know, at five six yards. But if he if
• 34:51
  Speaker 6: he's pressed up on you just converted to fade. Well
• 34:53
  Speaker 6: that's a way to get people out of the quick
• 34:56
  Speaker 6: game on that backside. And with guns Zales, he is
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: so smooth in his back pedal and he can transition
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: and drive on a ball so quickly that the Patriots
• 35:11
  Speaker 6: have him in off coverage. And so for a quarterback
• 35:14
  Speaker 6: to say, Okay, they're pushing, I want to go to
• 35:17
  Speaker 6: the solo side. Oftentimes you're thinking of the type of
• 35:21
  Speaker 6: routes that are good against press coverage, you know, and
• 35:24
  Speaker 6: and you know you'd like to hit a fade ball
• 35:27
  Speaker 6: if you can. Yeah, And so that part of his game.
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: Just watch.
• 35:35
  Speaker 6: In this game if he drives on a ball and
• 35:38
  Speaker 6: breaks it up. I mean I saw him. It was
• 35:41
  Speaker 6: against the Ravens. He was playing the right corner and
• 35:45
  Speaker 6: I probably rewatched the tape fifteen times. I was sitting
• 35:49
  Speaker 6: there going when's the last time I saw a guy
• 35:51
  Speaker 6: that smooth and quick and an explosive in his transition,
• 35:56
  Speaker 6: I'm like it's been years like this guy can He
• 36:00
  Speaker 6: can backpedal and drive with the best of them, and
• 36:04
  Speaker 6: so at any event, he's got a well earned reputation.
• 36:07
  Speaker 5: Well, I mean, obviously every piece to the puzzle is
• 36:10
  Speaker 5: part of what comes out in the finished product. I mean,
• 36:14
  Speaker 5: he missed the first three games this season with the Patriots.
• 36:17
  Speaker 5: They went one and two in.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: Those games, and lots of raiders in the opener.
• 36:21
  Speaker 5: They're basically sixteen and one with him. Is he that
• 36:25
  Speaker 5: big of an immage maker?
• 36:26
  Speaker 6: Well, there's a lot of things going on. You know,
• 36:29
  Speaker 6: you can't isolate the variables, don't. I don't know that
• 36:33
  Speaker 6: he tilts the field that much. But he allows them,
• 36:37
  Speaker 6: like we say, to play those solo coverages, right, and
• 36:42
  Speaker 6: and then that that coupled with their safeties, will probably
• 36:45
  Speaker 6: talking as the week goes on their safeties.
• 36:48
  Speaker 4: They got a young kid out.
• 36:49
  Speaker 6: From cal of all places that they're very aggressive. They
• 36:56
  Speaker 6: want they want, they want to trigger on anything they see.
• 37:01
  Speaker 6: And so I think there's an obligation from Seattle to
• 37:04
  Speaker 6: have double moves in the playbook.
• 37:07
  Speaker 4: It's it's fun.
• 37:09
  Speaker 6: You know a lot of people do double moves to
• 37:11
  Speaker 6: say all right, hitch and go out and up, slant
• 37:13
  Speaker 6: and go.
• 37:15
  Speaker 4: The Cowboys.
• 37:16
  Speaker 6: If if you're if you're a little bit older, and
• 37:18
  Speaker 6: you remember Michael Irvin in his heyday, they had a
• 37:21
  Speaker 6: route called.
• 37:22
  Speaker 4: A four and and go.
• 37:23
  Speaker 6: A four route was an in route and they would
• 37:26
  Speaker 6: do it an in route and take two steps to
• 37:29
  Speaker 6: the end. The safety drives and then you run in
• 37:33
  Speaker 6: behind them. And they used to get a lot of
• 37:35
  Speaker 6: touchdowns off of that. And uh, because Michael Irvin wasn't
• 37:38
  Speaker 6: a blazer, but he but he could set guys up
• 37:42
  Speaker 6: and uh. And this would be as I'm watching the Patriots,
• 37:46
  Speaker 6: I'm thinking back to whoa this is? This is the
• 37:49
  Speaker 6: time for a four and up because because when those
• 37:51
  Speaker 6: safeties they they're not getting a lot of depth in
• 37:55
  Speaker 6: honoring the post route. If they see something in an
• 37:58
  Speaker 6: intermediate in round, they want to drive hard on that
• 38:02
  Speaker 6: and you know, and drive for a pass breakup or
• 38:05
  Speaker 6: what have you. That process. You know, defense taketh, defense giveth.
• 38:09
  Speaker 6: If you if you're that eager to take away the
• 38:11
  Speaker 6: intermediate incut you you're going you are susceptible. You are
• 38:16
  Speaker 6: leaving your your back end open. And so I think
• 38:19
  Speaker 6: that let's see how aggressive Seattle is in in identifying
• 38:24
  Speaker 6: opportunities to to to make that aggressive work against them
• 38:28
  Speaker 6: and get a double move.
• 38:29
  Speaker 3: Well, I gotta I've gotta follow up on this, but
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: I think I'll save it for both you and coach
• 38:34
  Speaker 3: sh on the in.
• 38:36
  Speaker 2: The nine o'clock hours.
• 38:37
