00:00 You know, the whole point was to create a core that had certain standards.
00:13 You know, obviously they got to be good players, and we have that, but they got to be a certain
00:17 way and there's got to be a certain mindset and a certain identity, and we have that with
00:21 our core.
00:23 And we got to add pieces that are like-minded.
00:26 We got to add more talent, more competition, that thinks the same way that group of guys
00:30 in that locker room does.
00:32 And it's non-negotiable if it's not.
00:34 There's no level of talent that's worth bringing something that doesn't fit what we're about
00:38 in there.
00:41 And so that's very important.
00:43 But as far as, look, we'll talk about that when it gets, we got to start all over.
00:47 Yeah, we have the foundation.
00:48 There's things that we won't have to start all the way from scratch, but man, there's
00:52 got to be that hunger.
00:53 There's got to be that work.
00:54 There's got to be that attention to detail.
00:55 There's got to be that urgency.
00:59 And in that regard, you're starting all over again.
01:01 And if you don't, and you think you're just going to walk out there because you went to
01:04 the NFC Championship game, you got another thing coming.
01:06 That's how you become average in a hurry.
01:09 The easy thing to do is to throw it.
01:10 It probably should have been the right thing, but for me, I wanted to run it.
01:13 I thought we would just pop it.
01:15 You know, we had just two minute all the way down the field, throwing the football, and
01:18 they were in a four down front, and I believe we'd walk right in.
01:23 And we just, we missed the block.
01:25 And so then, yeah, I got to use a timeout.
01:27 So hindsight, you know, throw it four times, but I believed in that moment it was going
01:32 to be a walk and run, and it didn't work out.
01:35 So I gambled and lost.
