Oh, Matt Eberflu's handling of the infamous Hail Marriage Lawson Lord Blake Bears players Kayla Williams reveal how Eberfluz handled it all at the time for that game was I think one of the things that throughout the locker room people talked about and were annoyed by Ibrahim Flutes had him hold on. What about the DB that was joshing around with the fans? What, what about the culpa? What about the, what about the accountability of the players if he was where he was supposed to be? See, that's what annoys me about this. These millennial djmz is that they want to absolve themselves of responsibility, accountability. Now we see the guy, he's over there doing this, the play is going on, he's making fun of the people in the fans who have no impact on the game. And then the quarterback blames the head coach.
Unknown Speaker 5
Listen, I. Hey, hey, Unc, you know how it is in situations like that. We go over all that on Fridays, huh?
Unknown Speaker 1
Yes.
Unknown Speaker 5
We go over every scenario possible on Friday just in case it happens.
Unknown Speaker 1
So let me ask you this. Do.
Unknown Speaker 5
Do a. Do what you do what you do in practice.
Unknown Speaker 1
And the one thing that we didn't do is that when we run those flows and we practice, the guys on the defensive side, they not messing with the people in the stands.
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, absolutely, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker 1
So Caleb Williams, you don't mind me asking. So what responsibility? What was that? Was his last name Stevenson? Who's that? DB number 29. So I just want to know, I just want to hear him say what Tyreek Stevenson, Caleb Williams as a guy, two guys that played in the NFL, what responsibility, what role did Tyreek Stevenson play in that? I know you said there were things periating throughout the locker room that Eber flu when you lost that game. I just want to hear you say what role you believe he. He played in bat Right.
Unknown Speaker 5
Now was this said recently by Caleb Williams. We not Mischo. We're not misquoting anything he said. Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
However, how Eber Flutes handled it at the time for that game.
Unknown Speaker 5
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
I think was one of the things that throughout the locker room people talked about and were annoyed by.
Unknown Speaker 5
Okay, okay. I mean, and listen, I'm not sure how that's on the. On the coach at all because I'm sure when it's done in Friday's practice, whether it be walkthrough or whether it be full speed, I'm sure you're not messing with.
Unknown Speaker 1
If he's where he's supposed to be.
Unknown Speaker 5
That'S might the outcome might be different. The outcome might be different. Now there have been times where people have done the Right way. And it just so happened. They got lucky and they caught it.
Unknown Speaker 1
You can live with it. I can live, but I can't live with this.
Unknown Speaker 5
No.
Unknown Speaker 1
And that's what I.
Unknown Speaker 5
Absolutely.
Unknown Speaker 1
And see what I tell people, hard work doesn't guarantee you anything. But I believe it with. I believe without it, you don't have a chance. See, Ocho, if I go by something and I work as hard as I possibly can and it doesn't happen. It didn't happen. Yeah, but when people have regret, if I didn't stay out so late, if I didn't drink, had I taken it more serious.
Unknown Speaker 5
Come on, now.
Unknown Speaker 1
You can have lifetime. You can have a lifetime of discipline. You can have a lifetime of regret. Choose wisely.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hold on. We'll pin and pay that now.
Unknown Speaker 1
Don't do that.
Unknown Speaker 5
Damn it.
Unknown Speaker 1
Don't do that, woman. Baby, I can't. I. I can't.
Unknown Speaker 5
Wait. Say, wait. Give me, give me. Come on. Listen. Give me that one more time. You can have a lifetime discipline or.
Unknown Speaker 1
A lifetime of regret for you to blame the coach. When this guy. When you see the guy joshing around, the play is going on and then he's running as hard as he possibly can to try, and then he's late. He's the one that tipped the ball and let Brown catch it. Nor Brown catch it.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah, yeah. He's supposed to knock the ball down. Whatever you do, rule number one, knock the ball down. Dang, man.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yeah, I just. That. That's what I. I don't get. I just. He. Look, it's over with. Just. Just move on. He came out better saying, hey, look, guys, that was. That was last year. Hopefully we're better in those situations this year. We got a new coaching staff. Guys are excited. I get that. My rookie year has some ups, had some downs. There's some things I can do better. We will get better. We've improved in a lot of areas. We revamped the offensive line. Guys understand me. I understand them. Hey, I'm very excited about this season, but to talk about that play without mentioning player that should have been. I don't. I don't get down like that in position. No.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah, most definitely. Hey, and one thing about them Bears. Uncle, I could tell you this now, I would just. Just to finish on something positive. That goddamn Caleb Williams and Ben Johnson. Boy, the magic that they. For the Having the chemistry they gonna have.
Unknown Speaker 1
They got. They got Roma Dunes, they got DJ Moore. Yeah, they improved that offensive line by leaps. And Brown, Joe Tuney, they signed a couple of guys they got three guys in free agency.
Unknown Speaker 5
Listen, the offensive creativity alone itself. The Bears are going to be must watch. They're going to be must watch. I'm excited.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yeah, I'm excited for them, but they don't have a choice. I'm excited because Detroit's in that division, the packers are in that division, Minnesota's in that division. What choice do you have? If you don't get better, guess what? You'll finish it last again like you finished for the last several years. Hold on.
Unknown Speaker 5
Let me use the bathroom real quick. Hold on.
Unknown Speaker 1
Oh, Show. Oh, show. DeSean Watson say he will come back better than he ever was. Everyone don't think I can get back to where I was. I believe the work that I put in that I believe in myself. I know I'm going to be way better than before.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hey, that's where it all started, huh? That's, that's where it all started. Now, one of the problems with Deshaun Watson in previous years, based on how he look, is it looked like his confidence was shot. Huh? It looked like his confidence was shot. I even asked you before, why does it seem like other quarterbacks that come into the game that play in the exact same system look that much better than he does? Why would Joe Flacco coming in and leading the Cleveland Brown to a first round playoff birth? Why does the offense look completely different every time somebody else is at the helm? For one, I think DeShawn might, might, might not have been all the way fully healthy, you know, outside of that, I think his confidence for shot and you could tell by his decision making when he was playing. I, I, I don't know. Listen, I hope he gets back to the older Sean that we used to seeing and make that AFC north that much more interesting where it's a, it's a, it's a four quarterback battle, you know, for the top. I mean.
Unknown Speaker 1
Well, you know what I'm gonna do?
Unknown Speaker 5
Okay, three, quarterback.
Unknown Speaker 1
I'm gonna talk, Call Kmart and tell him to go ahead and send me those cigars.
Unknown Speaker 5
Who?
Unknown Speaker 1

Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, I forgot. Listen, now. I don't want to listen, I, I don't play by my cigars. Now, now, one thing about it, you don't play. I ain't heard from him since. I ain't heard from Kmart, Kmart since. And I would, hey, listen, I would hate it. I would hate it. I would hate, I would hate to have to jump on him. I would hate, I would hate to have to do it. Twinkle.
Unknown Speaker 1

Unknown Speaker 1
We could continue this. We'll come back after this. Ocho actually connecting now. Draft pick Amarion Hampton. He was the second team AP All American, first team all acp, ACC running back, finalist for the Dope Walker Award. Led the team with 15 rushing touchdowns. Ranked third in the FBF with 1660 rushing yards. A former Gatorade North Carolina, Mr. Football Player of the Year and winner of the States. Mr. Football. Where your eyes set on UNC or. Oh, no, Amarian. I'm about to read. I'm about to read everything for you, bro. I'm good, bro. How you doing, bro?
Amarion Hampton
I'm doing good. How about you?
Unknown Speaker 1
I'm doing great, bro. I see you repping caa. So that's the agency that you signed with?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I just recently joined them. They've been with me through the past season, so feel pretty good about them.
Unknown Speaker 1
Congratulations. Congratulations. Let me ask you this. Your Gatorade, Mr. North Carolina. You're arguably you, obviously, so you win that award. That means you're the state's best football player. Why did you choose usc? Did you want to stay at home? Did you. Did you go to Georgia? Did you. Alabama or anybody else? What was it about UNC that says, you know what, Home is where I want to be?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah, Yeah. I actually took an official to Florida. I took official to Auburn, Penn State, and then unc, and then I kind of narrowed it down to Penn State and unc, and then I kind of was just always up at UNC. It's like 50 minutes in my crib. So it's like I got to know the teammates, I got to know the coaches. I feel like it. I feel like the. The playing style they had at the time, the office they had at the time fit me well. So I feel like that was a big part of it, too. So I feel like all of that put it together, so.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hey. Oh, I want to ask you about your combine experience. I remember my combine experience being very nervous. The unfamiliarity, having to be in front of scouts, being in front of, you know, that many people, and the pressures that came with it. How did. Was your experience as a combine and how do you feel you did?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah. Yeah. I feel like it was definitely different. It was something I had adjust to, just being in, like, meeting after meeting after meeting. Just going into that and then having to, like, run your 40 and do, like, all the competitive stuff on the last day. But I feel like. I feel like I did good on it. I feel like I was prepared for it. I feel like Brent, the guy I was training with, Brent Calloway, he did a good job with all his players and stuff like that. I feel like he helped us prepare for it well. So I feel like. I feel like I did well on it. So it was. It was a good experience just to get to talk to all the head coaches and stuff. It was really cool.
Unknown Speaker 5
If you had to take a guess on the coaches that you talk to and you know how you can get a feel, you get. You can get a feel on. On who likes you, and you kind of get a feel on who doesn't based on the type of questions they ask you, based on how in depth they get with the personal questions outside of the game of football. If you had to take a guess, who do you think is leaning towards the drafting you on draft day?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah. Yeah. I mean, I mean whoever picked me, I'll be happy with, but I mean it's a lot of teams who need a running back. So I mean, I mean whoever, whoever pimped me gonna get the best of me really. So I feel like I kind of don't look at all the little drafts, mock drafts and stuff like that because.
Unknown Speaker 1
That'S, that's where I was going to take it because a lot of the mock draft, the latest mock draft, have you going to the Broncos now if you need to hook up, you know. Oh yeah, I know some people.
Amarion Hampton
All right, man. I wouldn't be mad at it because.
Unknown Speaker 1
If you look at Amarian, if you look at it, you see what Saquan was able to do. You see what Jir Gibbs and you see what Josh Jacobs and you see what King Henry we see. You see the resurgence. There was a stretch for about a decade. The running back was not as, not a decade, probably say six, seven years. The running back was not as valued as it seems to be currently is. And coming back. Why do you think that is and what can you add if a team I'm drafting and I draft tomorrow. Young tell me what type of player, what type of person am I getting?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah, yeah. Well, I mean it's just for me, I feel like I love to see just like the Derrick Henry Saquons, just them doing their thing out there. I feel like it's putting more value in the position itself. I feel like if the team drafts me, they're gonna get a three down back, they're gonna get a guy that plays special teams. They gotta go. Everybody can run this league. So I feel like pass protection is a big thing I key on. I feel like catching out the backfield is another thing that I keep on just learning the defense, learning like where the safes are, learning where how the linebackers move and stuff like that. Just different things like all the in depth stuff like that. So I mean just different stuff like that. I feel like it's helping me.
Unknown Speaker 1
No, I mean unless you run back punts and kickoff and I don't know if they're gonna put you out there on special team. Yeah, you might have done played your last, your last special team snap in college.
Unknown Speaker 5
Matter of fact. Matter of fact, I'm glad you just said that. You said you were three down back and then you said what you can do with pass protection. Then you brought up being able to catch the ball out the backfield. So that makes you that much more valuable than other running backs that can do all those things, right? I'm telling you, it does. It makes you special. So in, in hindsight, when you think about the type of running back you are and what you bring to the table, depending on who drafts you, who would your NFL comparison be right now as far as your playing style goes?
Amarion Hampton
Yeah. Yeah. For me, I, I like to watch like a lot of guys, like take tips off a lot of guys. I feel like Joe Mitson is kind of like a running style. I feel like I try to watch like I like Gibbs running style. Like I feel like Bijan is going to be crazy in the future. I feel like, I feel like all those guys really just like Saquon. Like Saquons. I feel like everybody really.
Unknown Speaker 1
Okay, USC has a great running. I mean, go ahead.
Unknown Speaker 5
No, I was just saying I like the Joe makes some comparison. That's a good one. That's a good one.

Amarion Hampton
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I try to add everything to my game, really. It's always room to grow. Try to grow to do different things. I feel like try to make them. Make them ju. Juking space. Make them do different things. Learn. Learn off different people. So I feel like it's always good to do different things. I try to be versatile. Versatile as much as I can.
Unknown Speaker 1
Right. Well, bro, we want to miss. Thank you for joining us.
Unknown Speaker 5
I got one more question.
Unknown Speaker 1
Go ahead.
Unknown Speaker 5
I got one more question. If football didn't exist, now obviously we all need to have a plan B. You. You just know stand for not. Not for long. I'm not wishing nothing bad. It's just a question. In life, if you're playing bleed. If football didn't exist, let's say it didn't exist, what would your dream career be if you wasn't playing football?
Amarion Hampton
I feel like even what I'm doing now, I feel like if you want, like, personal training with football, I feel like I would do personal training with, like, just fitness stuff. So I feel like going around doing personal training training with, like, kids who didn't have, like, the opportunities that I had in, like, smaller neighborhoods and stuff like that. I feel like that's something I wanted to do in the long run, just reaching out to those kids, giving them opportunities that I had. So I feel like that's one of the things I'll definitely look into.
Unknown Speaker 5
That's a good one. That's dope. That's dope.
Unknown Speaker 1
Well, thanks for giving us some of your time. We wish you the best of luck wherever you go, bro. Hey, it's not where. It's not how high you go, it's where you go. And once you get there, the journey really starts. The journey doesn't start just getting to the NFL. The journey starts once you arrive in the NFL. So Ocho and I want to wish you best of luck. The Nightcap family want to wish you the best of luck and check back in when it's down the road.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah, all right.
Amarion Hampton
Appreciate it. Appreciate you.
Unknown Speaker 1
Appreciate you, bro.
Unknown Speaker 5
Don't Forget to eat. McDonald's.
Amarion Hampton
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
That'S Marion Hampton, the University of North Carolina running back projected to be a first round pick. Mock had him go into the the Broncos, but we'll see since there has been a resurgence. We saw what Saquon did for the Eagles. We saw what Derrick Henry did for the Ravens offense, Josh Jacobs for the Packers, Jameer Gibbs for the. For the Lions. We saw Joe Mixon, what he added to the Houston Texans. And so the running back is kind of like a coming back. We saw the year before what CMAC did for the 49ers.
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
So the running back is definitely coming back. Guys that can run can catch it, but you got to be able to pass block because once they found that you can't pass block, they're going to bliss you. They're going to make you stay in. They gonna make you stay. They gonna make you stay here, though. So we wish the young man the best of luck. Oh, Joe. Bruce Aryan, regarded as the quarterback whisperer, spoke about Anthony Richardson. He said, Anthony, I think, needed two more years in college as a passer. I didn't see him as being able to beat anybody in two minute and third down. If you can't do that in the NFL, you're just an average guy.
Unknown Speaker 5
Eli. Yeah, he's right. He's right. I have.
Unknown Speaker 1
You got it. You got third. Ocho you make your money on third down every time.
Unknown Speaker 5
Listen, you hope, you hope to make your hay on first to make second and third a little easier.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yes.
Unknown Speaker 5
If you don't, the better the passer you are, the more easy it is. Convert those third downs. Now, obviously, I think the repetitions, obviously being in college would have helped him tremendously. If you look at the numbers. I don't have the numbers in front of me, so I don't want to state and be and be and be wrong statistically. But he didn't play that many games in college. Huh.
Unknown Speaker 1
That's why he said he should and he wasn't. He wasn't a high completion percentage guy in college. So with not playing a whole lot and I get why he came out. Oo.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
The guy, the top five pick.
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
He got 20 plus $25 million probably fully guaranteed. They ain't paying that in nil and collective. So I get why, right? I get why. You get why. His family gets why. Because at the end of the day, why are we doing this? Oo we're trying to set our families up. That's how we. That, that's how. I'm not saying. Oh, let me take that back. There's no such thing as all of every. But a lot of us, what we do this for is for our family. We're trying to get to the bag as soon as we possibly can because everybody didn't grow up like a Grant Hill that had a two pair or the Mannings or the Watts. So we grew up in a situation. A lot of times it's grandma, a lot of times it's mom and we trying to get there to get them out of that situation. So I get why he did it, right? But what Bruce has said, and I totally agree, he could have gotten a lot more by staying and getting better at his craft. But at the end of the day, in the two minute drill and on third down is as a quarterback where you make your money, you got to have it.
Unknown Speaker 5
You got to have it. But, but Unc, who's to say there are a lot. There are a lot of quarterbacks in the NFL that have made it, that have stayed for four years, that have been there for a long time in those same situations and converting third downs.
Unknown Speaker 1
So just that's why his big message is also ocho 2 minute drill, third down. If you can't do that, you're average. So he's not saying that he believed that he would have been better. Look at BA's record. Peyton Manning Andrew, look, he worked with Big Ben Roethlisberger.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
Unknown Speaker 1
Had all those guys in the early stages he worked with. He had Carson. If I'm not. I think he had Carson.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
In Arizona.
Unknown Speaker 5
In Arizona, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Okay, so he knows something about the quarterback position. I like BA BA Go tell you like it is. It ain't no sugarcoat with BA Now.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
If it comes up, it's coming out.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah. It was also one of the issues then over there in Tampa, now, remember?
Unknown Speaker 1
Yeah, absolutely.
Unknown Speaker 5
That's why they send his ass upstairs.
Unknown Speaker 1
Absolutely. So I believe. Because here's the thing, ocho, he's a 50. He was a 50. Maybe a 50 completion guy in college. If you're 50 in college, 50, he's 46. Put it like this here. He had a worse completion percentage than tebow in the NFL. And you know, Tebow was 47%. It was worse than Tebow's. So you're not going to be successful, Ocho, with the way the field is spaced now, the way they protect the quarterback, the way they protect the receivers.
Unknown Speaker 5
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
Everybody should be completing 60%.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah. Yeah. Actually, you should. It's because to me, I'm not saying the game is easy, but they made the offensive game much easier.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yes. And so that's why the quarterback.
Unknown Speaker 5
The way defenders and defense are handicapped.
Unknown Speaker 1
So now, it used to be, if you completed in the high 50s, boy, you had a hell of a season.
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
90S when I got to the league. And even before Ojo, if you threw for 3,000 yards was the standard. If you threw for 3,000 yards. Because everybody ran the football. That's why many believe Dan Marino still has the greatest statistical passing season. Even though they passed him for yards. They passed him for touchdowns. He threw for four for 5,000 yards and 48 touchdown in that era.
Unknown Speaker 5
The running era. Yeah. Yeah. Duper. Duper. And Clayton was eating. Boy.
Unknown Speaker 1
Boy, do you know what they did? Look, I came in when they. They knocked. They knocked your ass off. There was no part of the quarterback that was off limits.
Amarion Hampton
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
The only thing, you couldn't hit him at the bottom of his feet, and that's because he was standing on him. Other than that, everything was a green light from the top of the head to the top of your feet.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
You remember I sent you that clip, what Charles Martin did to Jim McMahon?
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
He was just standing there and he looked around like, oh, I got you. Oh, that was commonplace. Go back and look. Bruce Smith jumps off sides. That's what they call elevated to the quarterback.
Unknown Speaker 5
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
Bruce jumped off slides, knocked Boomer silent, out at the game for, like, weeks. Not to do the game for weeks. It was. It was anything goes anything. And so they made it easier so for a quarterback to be in the 40s, right. Oh, Lord.
Unknown Speaker 5
Holy bad.
Unknown Speaker 1
That's bad. It's Elo. He's got to get up to the mid 50s. He's got to get it up to the mid 50s. Ocho, I have a question. Yes.
Unknown Speaker 5
Single quarterback struggling. They have a high percentage or high completion percentage. Do you think this, because of his supporting the cast around him is not good enough?
Unknown Speaker 1
Man, he got some. Hey, you see what he got them receivers. He got. He got Jonathan Taylor in the back. We didn't. Forgot to mention Jonathan Taylor. We didn't mention him on show.
Unknown Speaker 5
And honestly, having Jonathan Taylor back there, it should make anything having to do with the passing game that much effing easier.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yes.
Unknown Speaker 5
Because I know they got. I know they got to say, I know they got a safety in the box.
Unknown Speaker 1
Absolutely, absolutely. And you got Pittman. They got another receiver, too. That's really good. They got. I forget his name, though.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hey, number 10. Number 10.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yes. Yes.
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, my God. Hey, Chad.
Unknown Speaker 3
Who?
Unknown Speaker 5
Oh, hey, I apologize. I apologize for the disrespect, but young bull, Whoever wears number 10, I forgot. I forget your name, boy. I'm telling you here, out of my mouth, boy. You is the real deal, boy. You the real deal. And I apologize if I remember your name, boy. Young boy. You're the real deal, bro.
Unknown Speaker 1
Oh, yeah?
Unknown Speaker 5
What's his last name, huh?
Unknown Speaker 1
Okay. Oh, man, they got Michael Pittman Jr. What's that? What's that guy? What's the other receiver? Alex Pierce. Pierce.
Unknown Speaker 5
That's number 10. Name, Alex Pierce.
Unknown Speaker 1
Downs, they got Josh Downs, Alec Pierce, Michael Pittman Jr. I think the tight end is Mo. Ali Cox. And they got Jonathan Taylor and they had Braden Smith. Took some time away. He was dealing with some. Dealing with some things. They got a nice offensive line. Yeah. There's no reason. There's none.
Unknown Speaker 5
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
For him to be completing less than 50% of his passes because he missed a lot of throws, Ocho. And I say, bro, you don't have to throw everything through the eye of a hurricane.
Unknown Speaker 5
Gotta touch. You gotta touch. You gotta have. You gotta have some finesse to your game. You gotta have some finesse. I'm trying to think what quarterback is labeled of having a very.
Unknown Speaker 1
Mitchell. Mitchell. Mitchell is number 10, Ocho.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hey, well, you don't know his first name.
Unknown Speaker 1
Adam Mitchell. Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 5
Whatever.
Unknown Speaker 1
It Is he could cook.
Unknown Speaker 5
Hey, he be cooking. Hey, brother. Brother. Mitchell, I apologize. I will never forget your name again. But I'm gonna tell you one thing.
Unknown Speaker 1
They got some nice receivers over there.
Unknown Speaker 5
Ocho, I'm talking about nice, nice.
Unknown Speaker 1
And I'm for him.
Unknown Speaker 5
Mitchell has a bigger role coming this season.
Unknown Speaker 1
There's no reason for him to be completing 46% of his passes.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
With that type of receiving core, that offensive line, and with Jonathan Taylor in your backfield.
Unknown Speaker 5
Well, listen, he might be better this year. You. You never know. You have a whole off season to work on things. Work on the things you need to work on going into having another mini camp, another training camp up under your belt, you know, familiarity with the system you're in. I think I. I think in hoping. Hoping this year he got to put the time in. Yeah, you got to. I'm hoping he plays with a lot more confidence and he'll be fine.
Unknown Speaker 1
Gotta put it. You gotta put the time in.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Gotta put the time in. And if he does that, remember we had, we had Pittman on.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Who else? We. We talked to some people like, hey, bro, he. He. He can't be the first. You can't be the, the. The.
Amarion Hampton
The.
Unknown Speaker 1
The last one in and the first one to leave. It's gotta be the bird. It's gotta be first.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Reverse the first one in. The last one.
Unknown Speaker 5
The last one to leave.
Unknown Speaker 1
Not the last. First, last.
Unknown Speaker 5
Right.
Unknown Speaker 1
But I hopefully, hopefully he gets it figured out because like I said, I think they got. Look, that's a very competitive division. You got, you got Houston.
Unknown Speaker 5
C.J.
Unknown Speaker 1
Shroud, Houston, go be got Lawrence. You about to have Cam Ward in that division. Because, look, if you go back and study it, don't y'all look at it. It's a quarterback league.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Look at the NFC East. Oh, look at the, look at the afc. Look at the AFC west, what they have in the West. Look at division. That'll tell you who's winning it.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
Yeah, quarterbacks. Because that's what you got to compete against. I know they're not on the field at the same time, but you have to match him. You can't like, oh, our defense go to hold him. If I throw for 170 yards, we're going to. No, you might win one or two games like that.
Unknown Speaker 5
Yeah.
Unknown Speaker 1
But you're gonna have to match that production every time. So hopefully, hopefully AR gets this thing figured out and get this thing turned around. The volume.
Unknown Speaker 2
