00:00Uh, I, I'm with you, man. It is a, at some point we got to get used to it because I think
00:07this is the bold new future we're all walking into. I don't know that the getting used to
00:13it year will be this year. Um, but they just, it, the opportunity that's there is just so
00:19massive and it is exciting. And I think, you know, B of, of all of us involved in this
00:29program, me, you, landfill, Jeffrey white, Brian, you're the only one that's been here,
00:34right? That's been in a conference title game. And I thought it was very clear yesterday.
00:40DQ said fundamentals and executions. What got us here? It's not about rolling out new
00:45plays. I asked Jayden about that. He said, yeah, you know, it might be some new wrinkles
00:49here or there, but they're going to have some too, but we know each other. Like everybody
00:54knows what's at stake in this game. And then Zach Ertz said the same stuff that helped
00:59us win games during the year is what we need to do to win games this year. It, how do they
01:05remain focused and just playing their game as the hype continues to build?
01:12See, that's the thing about the hype has been building the whole year and that team has
01:17remained the same. I think when you look at the guys on this team that are leading
01:23the way, all of those guys are the ones that don't let outside noise affect them. Bobby
01:29Wagner is not caring. Zach hurts. Not caring. Hell you're starting quarterback. Who's young
01:35is not caring. He he's worked harder every week to try to make sure you can keep going
01:40on the track he's been on. So I think they have great leadership in, in DQ and the rest
01:46of these coaches around here that don't allow that to happen. Now, there are a lot of times
01:51where you get a lot of, when people always want the young, if you got no leadership on
01:56a team, you can see that happening. Have we seen anything that shows us that they care
02:01about what's happening outside? No. So I don't expect to change.
02:07It's, it's really a group that appears to have kind of all the right pieces in place
02:16where you've got enough, the, the mix of vets and young players is remarkable. And then
02:25I think if you consider like I did, you know, who I talked to last night was Tim Murray
02:30on the Beeson and talking with Timmy, it was like, I think everybody nationally knows
02:40Jaden obviously. And I think even Terry has kind of hit that Mark, but of the guys that
02:47made big plays last week and you got the whole country, you got the whole country watching
02:52that game last week, Detroit at home, the whole country's rooting for Detroit for young
02:59guys like Quan Martin and Mikey Sam are still to make big plays in that game.
03:04People are like, Whoa, who are these guys? And I think fans here have known about them
03:07all year, but now it's like, okay, this is something really exciting. You've got a couple
03:13secondary guys, a second year guy and a rookie that are making big plays. I think you combine
03:19that with Marshawn Lattimore. If you look at what this team was when they played Philly
03:23twice versus what they are now, I feel comfortable saying they're a lot better now than they
03:30were.
03:31Yeah.
