All right, let's get it going on

7
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:41.159
this Monday night. Oh man,
it's another victory Monday, just like we

8
00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:44.039
like it. We've got three hours
to break it down coaches, players,

9
00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:48.960
analysis and more of a Bengal seventeen
thirteen win over the Seahawks. Now on

10
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.560
the Buy next up the forty nine
ers on Lance Pacallister. He's Dave Lappham.

11
00:00:52.600 --> 00:00:55.479
The things we have to sort through
today for a game that it started

12
00:00:55.520 --> 00:00:58.000
out like a track meet. It
was like well, buckle up, touchdown,

13
00:00:58.039 --> 00:01:02.200
opening drive on each team, and
then it turned into a lockdown defensively

14
00:01:02.439 --> 00:01:07.120
and it morphed into repeated red zone
low red zone stops by Lows crew,

15
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:12.439
which might ultimately be one of the
finest defensive red zone performances you'll ever lay

16
00:01:12.480 --> 00:01:17.439
your eyes on. Added up to
a huge win, and now three and

17
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:21.359
three never looks so good considering where
we once were with this football team.

18
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.159
The red zone defense obviously was the
story of the football game. Just an

19
00:01:26.280 --> 00:01:32.799
unbelievable effort, unbelievable performance in that
regard. The offensively, like you said,

20
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:37.000
started out like a track meet.
The first two drives took less than

21
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.079
eighteen minutes or less than eighteen minutes
into the football game, seventeen minutes and

22
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:45.599
change, twenty four snaps, one
hundred and forty four yards, fourteen points

23
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.439
on the board, six yards of
play. The remaining thirty two minutes of

24
00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:53.519
the game twenty nine snaps seventy yards, three points, two point four yards

25
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:59.159
per play, not per run,
we're talking per play. So it wasn't

26
00:01:59.200 --> 00:02:02.359
even a Charles Dickens tailor two halves. It was a Charles Dickens fiasco.

27
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:07.280
After eighteen minutes, man, it
was crazy. And now three and three

28
00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:10.199
on the by chance to get healthy. Clearly some things to work on and

29
00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:15.639
clean up. But considering where they
were and what was going on with Joe's

30
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.120
caff and the uncertainty and losing in
the division. It's starting oh to two.

31
00:02:20.199 --> 00:02:22.879
You'll take your chances at three and
three with a chance to get healthy

32
00:02:22.919 --> 00:02:25.319
and now face what remains of the
schedule. No doubt, I wish we

33
00:02:25.439 --> 00:02:30.280
played the NFC West every week three
and oh against the NFC West. Can't

34
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.840
beat anybody else at this stage,
and we've talked about it before the next

35
00:02:34.879 --> 00:02:38.280
game they play is the last NFC
West team, the Samanisco forty nine ers,

36
00:02:38.280 --> 00:02:44.080
who proved themselves human by going up
to Cleveland and losing that football game.

37
00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:50.719
But Bengals have to start stacking some
AFC wins and stacking some division wins.

38
00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:53.840
They've put themselves behind the eight ball
there on three in the AFC on

39
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:58.680
two in the division. It's nice
to get wins, don't get me wrong.

40
00:02:58.800 --> 00:03:02.080
You got you gotta get vic,
But there are some wins are more

41
00:03:02.120 --> 00:03:07.479
important than others in terms of tiebreaker. Obviously, they have to start getting

42
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:09.599
some work down on those. David. I love the fact that we're gonna

43
00:03:09.759 --> 00:03:14.039
work through all sides and facets of
this game through the next three hours and

44
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:17.879
hear from players. But I think
of Tyler Boyd coming up with a touchdown

45
00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:23.960
catch, yuci Vash with a touchdown
catch. Defensively, the number of different

46
00:03:23.000 --> 00:03:27.879
contributors, and if you're going to
win in this league week to week and

47
00:03:28.240 --> 00:03:30.439
deal with injuries, you're gonna need
everybody on a roster to step up.

48
00:03:30.479 --> 00:03:34.599
I know it's cliche to say it's
a team thing. It was a team

49
00:03:34.680 --> 00:03:38.199
thing yesterday for this team. It
was there. There's no doubt, and

50
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:43.639
they're having to lean on everybody.
Yep, no question about it. Honestly,

51
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:51.280
when you look at the second half
possessions for the Seattle Seahawks, it's

52
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:55.159
just it's mind blowing. Really.
They had one drive, actually two drives.

53
00:03:55.400 --> 00:04:00.719
One drive eight plays fifty six yards, ends with the red zone interception.

54
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:05.240
The last play from Scrimmers is at
the Cincinnati eighteen yard line. They

55
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:09.479
go on another eight play thirty two
yard drive and they settle for a field

56
00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:14.000
goal and hold a bul their necks
and at the five yard line in field

57
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:18.199
goal, four plays twenty yards,
interception, four plays fifteen yards, punt,

58
00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:23.879
ten plays fifty yards they get the
last snap was at the six yard

59
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:29.000
line. Hold them on downs six
plays forty six yards. The last snap

60
00:04:29.040 --> 00:04:31.199
from Scrimmers the nine yard line.
Hold them on downs. That is just

61
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:38.519
unbelievable to have, in my opinion, three turnovers, three takeaways in the

62
00:04:38.519 --> 00:04:42.519
red zone, an interception in the
red zone, hold them on downs twice

63
00:04:42.879 --> 00:04:46.360
in the red zone, and then
they kick a field goal and score a

64
00:04:46.439 --> 00:04:50.439
touch on five red zone possessions.
Ten points, two points per. It's

65
00:04:50.480 --> 00:04:54.160
gonna win you a lot of football
games, Lamps, no doubt about that.

66
00:04:54.279 --> 00:04:59.519
Let's get the first of many reactions
throughout this evening of Bengals conversation.

67
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.399
It up with the coach and Dave's
here's Zach Taylor, coach. This falls

68
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:06.759
into the category of the old slaveynknocker
Man. There was some physical football going

69
00:05:06.759 --> 00:05:09.959
on out there today, wasn't there? There was, you know, and

70
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:13.079
I'm really proud of our defense.
They found ways to stop them on those

71
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:15.560
drives, a little red zone,
got some turnovers for us. Just really

72
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:18.199
proud of those guys the way they
rose up and met the challenge today.

73
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:23.959
Red zone, twice on downs,
interception, they kicked a field goal,

74
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:27.399
they score a touchdown, they get
ten points on five red zone possessions.

75
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:30.759
You guys are in the red zone
twice, scored two touchdowns. Ballgame right

76
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:33.519
there, kind of decided in that
red zone. Yeah, we figured it

77
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:36.120
would be. You know, it
felt strange first half. Offense had three

78
00:05:36.120 --> 00:05:39.720
possessions going in that two minute drive, so you knew it was going to

79
00:05:39.759 --> 00:05:41.560
be one of those games where it
was going to come down to turnovers.

80
00:05:41.600 --> 00:05:44.639
It was going to come down a
red zone efficiency and I think that hold

81
00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:49.120
out. So did they make any
adjustments from your first two drives boom boom,

82
00:05:49.160 --> 00:05:53.639
two touchdowns? Did they make any
adjustments? It was just a tick

83
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:56.639
off execution wise or a combination,
you know. I know that third drive

84
00:05:56.680 --> 00:05:59.959
we came a yard short into fourth
down, we complete a third down three,

85
00:06:00.279 --> 00:06:01.959
just just a couple of inches short
of the sticks. Came out in

86
00:06:02.000 --> 00:06:04.399
the second half and felt the same. I think they stopped us in a

87
00:06:04.439 --> 00:06:08.240
third and one, you know.
So so again, there were some moments

88
00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:10.680
there where it just came down to
the yard and you couldn't get it going,

89
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:13.560
and then we just didn't do a
great job staying and sync there late

90
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:16.240
third quarter, early fourth quarter.
That that part we certainly got improved and

91
00:06:16.279 --> 00:06:19.160
look at and figure out what the
reasons why we were. But fortunately our

92
00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:21.600
defense was able to step up the
rise of the challenge. You talk about

93
00:06:21.600 --> 00:06:28.120
complimentary football a lot. The defense
gets scored on. You guys come right

94
00:06:28.160 --> 00:06:30.399
down the field and even it up. When Joe had an interception, you

95
00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:33.519
come right back. Mike Hilton gets
one. I mean, the complementary football

96
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:38.199
stuff started to show itself, didn't
it. It's huge. And again when

97
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:41.639
you're playing a team like that that's
got a great running game, got a

98
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:45.360
really good defense. Checked that.
Check the turnovers and see who won the

99
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:47.439
tournament battle and we won two to
one, and you win by three points

100
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:50.560
and there's no there's no chakra there. How that thing usually turns out.

101
00:06:50.600 --> 00:06:55.360
So proud of our guys for bean
able to get those two takeaways. You

102
00:06:55.360 --> 00:07:00.279
got important third phase special teams.
They've been dominating people longfield short field.

103
00:07:00.279 --> 00:07:01.920
I mean every time I look to
tape the opponents on a long field and

104
00:07:01.920 --> 00:07:05.920
they get the ball like midfield or
better. Today, I thought that long

105
00:07:05.920 --> 00:07:09.680
field short field, you guys competed
pretty well in that area. I did,

106
00:07:09.839 --> 00:07:11.759
aside from one that kind of got
out on us. I thought we

107
00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:15.040
did a good job. Good job
with the plants, good job with the

108
00:07:15.079 --> 00:07:18.199
coverage, and gave ourselves a really
good chance there. So you go into

109
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:21.480
the buy with a three and three
record, crawl out of the mini hole.

110
00:07:21.639 --> 00:07:24.800
You know, start one and three
and now you're three and three.

111
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:29.600
What how big a difference does that
make going into the by coming off two

112
00:07:29.639 --> 00:07:31.120
wins like this, you don't want
to go into the buy with the loss.

113
00:07:31.959 --> 00:07:33.600
You don't want to turn on the
TV. You don't want to be

114
00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:38.199
watching these other games. So I
think just peace of mind and being able

115
00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:42.079
to get rejuvenated a little bit.
You know, it's a we've gone through

116
00:07:42.120 --> 00:07:45.560
training camp, We've gone through six
games now, you know, so it

117
00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:46.839
feels like you've been going at it
for a while. So I think this

118
00:07:46.920 --> 00:07:49.360
by hits us at the right time. Get a chance to get healthy,

119
00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:51.920
refresh ourselves a little bit, and
come back and get ready for San fran

120
00:07:53.360 --> 00:07:57.040
So what is the what's the your
schedule, like, what does it look

121
00:07:57.079 --> 00:07:59.519
like you're gonna get the players quite
a bit of time? Or what's your

122
00:07:59.519 --> 00:08:01.800
mindset with respect to them? Buy? Yeah, well, we'll clean this

123
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:03.920
game up tomorrow and give those guys
a chance to get healthy and get a

124
00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:07.319
bonus day of the following Monday.
Coaches will get a head start I think

125
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:11.279
on the upcoming opponent. I know
on the upcoming component, I don't think,

126
00:08:11.680 --> 00:08:13.600
and so that'll be good for us
to get an opportunity to go on

127
00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:16.279
the road and find a way to
get a big win. Coming opponent in

128
00:08:16.319 --> 00:08:20.920
San Francisco. Forty nine ers Cleveland
Brown showed they're mortal. There's no question

129
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:22.920
about that. I mean, it's
a football team that you've played, the

130
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:26.639
type of football that Cincinnati Bengals can
play. You guys can beat anybody.

131
00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.040
I haven't watched any of them yet, but we'll see how it goes.

132
00:08:31.040 --> 00:08:33.840
But again, I like where the
teams at right now mentally and physically,

133
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:39.000
and so we'll be ready to go. Zach Taylor on a seventeen to thirteen

134
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:43.159
win. And now the buy and
a chance to self scout and do what's

135
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:46.480
done traditionally during the buying. I
didn't realize it until this morning. The

136
00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:52.600
forty nine Ers play on Monday Night
football next week right at Minnesota, so

137
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.120
they have they travel, They have
a short week before coming back home to

138
00:08:56.159 --> 00:08:58.799
host the Bengals. So maybe the
forty nine ers have a complaint about that,

139
00:09:00.080 --> 00:09:03.960
have no complaints about that whatsoever?
No, I don't as well.

140
00:09:03.720 --> 00:09:07.759
I just wish Cleveland wasn't the one
to knock them off, ma, I

141
00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:11.279
mean, because you know, that
really gives Cleveland a win that people are

142
00:09:11.279 --> 00:09:15.159
going to be very envious of,
because you know, you're playing the forty

143
00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:18.879
nine ers, who I think are
playing the best of any team in the

144
00:09:18.960 --> 00:09:24.799
National Football League. They're number two
in points scored, number one in points

145
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.120
allowed. And that's what the game
is all about, is how many you

146
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:31.440
score and how many you hold the
other guy to. Even after this loss

147
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:35.799
in Cleveland, they're still in that
in that area, second scoring and first

148
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.320
stopping opponents. So I wish the
Bengals were the first team to knock him

149
00:09:39.320 --> 00:09:43.840
off, quite honestly, rather than
Cleveland. But it is what it is,

150
00:09:43.399 --> 00:09:46.840
and uh, we'll see. We'll
see how how the forty nine ers

151
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:48.919
they get beaten up a little bit
too. Yeah, they did, they

152
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:54.440
they they get nicked up. I
mean you both, Samuel McCaffrey. That's

153
00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:58.320
two huge pieces to the to the
offensive puzzle for the San Francisco forty nine

154
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:01.960
ers. For sure. We'll talk
more about those niners later on in our

155
00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:05.879
third hour tonight Still ahead in this
hour, QB one, Joe Burrow,

156
00:10:05.159 --> 00:10:09.159
Sam Hubbard, Cam Taylor Britt and
a host of others as we make our

157
00:10:09.159 --> 00:10:13.279
every way through a victory Monday.
Thanks for being here with us, Settlee

158
00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:16.399
and we got you till nine.
It's Bengals Line on the First Star Logistics

159
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:22.879
Bengals Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. Hey, we're back on Bengals Line

160
00:10:22.879 --> 00:10:26.080
on this Monday night, Lance McAlister, Dave Lapham, sorting through yesterday,

161
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.000
looking ahead to the buy and then
out of the by the forty nine ers.

162
00:10:30.000 --> 00:10:31.840
The show is Bengals Line. We're
on the first Star Logistics Bengals Radio

163
00:10:31.879 --> 00:10:35.879
Network and seven hundred WLW, and
it's time to make the right call.

164
00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:43.000
Courtesy Blake Maisland, who's about the
law offices of Blake Maisland and Leuan Rumo

165
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:46.799
was at it again. A lot
of different configurations up front. He had

166
00:10:46.840 --> 00:10:50.600
four linebackers on in the field.
He had his Dime package on on the

167
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:54.039
field, he had his Nickel package
on on the field. He had a

168
00:10:54.039 --> 00:11:00.759
bunch of packages on the field.
Pressure packages extraordinary, disguising coverages extraordinary.

169
00:11:00.799 --> 00:11:03.879
And he made a great call on
this one second and nine at the Seattle

170
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:07.600
thirty six yard line in the fourth
quarter, Geno Smith tries to go deep

171
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:15.440
to Tgate DK metcalf and Cam Taylor
Britt intercepts of the football. Two interceptions

172
00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:18.559
in two games for the young cornerback, plus he gets up and returns at

173
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.720
twenty four yards. That's two and
a half first downs. Basically, the

174
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:24.600
offense didn't have to worry about.
The good thing is it didn't do a

175
00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.919
damn thing. Three straight in completions. They didn't get an inch, and

176
00:11:28.080 --> 00:11:33.279
onto the field comes McPherson to kick
a fifty two yard field goal. If

177
00:11:33.399 --> 00:11:37.279
the ball is not returned that interception
is not returned by Cam Taylor Britt for

178
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:43.000
twenty four yards, they get nothing
out of that takeaway. Huge play by

179
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.200
Cam Taylor Britt. Let's talk some
offense in QB one Joe Burrow twenty five

180
00:11:46.279 --> 00:11:50.840
or twenty four of thirty five passing
one hundred and eighty five yards, two

181
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:54.879
touchdowns of the one pick, quarterback
rating of eighty eight point four. Here's

182
00:11:54.039 --> 00:12:00.960
Joe Burrow after the game. Oh, complimentary football joke? Is that the

183
00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.480
perfect example of your offense going early? Defense carries a day late. Yeah,

184
00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:09.759
that was you know, our defense
stepped up big second half. Uh,

185
00:12:09.240 --> 00:12:11.840
you know, offense was really good
in the first half. We were

186
00:12:11.840 --> 00:12:13.639
horrible in the second half, So
we just got to be able to put

187
00:12:13.879 --> 00:12:18.200
put together a complete game. What
changed after those first few drays. We'll

188
00:12:18.759 --> 00:12:24.240
watch the tape and see what's going
to your mind. Late when when the

189
00:12:24.240 --> 00:12:26.440
defense inside the ten, trying to
keep them out of the end zone.

190
00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.480
I know you're sure, you're confident. Yeah, I knew they were gonna

191
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:31.919
make a play, but all at
the same time, knew we had opportunities

192
00:12:31.919 --> 00:12:35.240
on offense to put them away when
we didn't. Obviously, getting the win

193
00:12:35.399 --> 00:12:39.039
is the most important pain. But
was it disappointing for you guys to feel

194
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:43.120
like you took a major step forward
last year with the passing last week with

195
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:46.759
your passing intact, then first half
exactly what you wanted then to not be

196
00:12:46.840 --> 00:12:50.360
able to consistently carry that through this
fine week. Yeah, there were definitely

197
00:12:50.440 --> 00:12:54.639
points, like I said, opportunities
that we had we didn't capitalize on.

198
00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:58.360
Uh, but we got the win. It's a lot easier to fix things

199
00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:01.519
when you're three and thre than if
you had lost this one. So uh,

200
00:13:01.919 --> 00:13:07.919
never gonna apologize for a win given
to be three. Yeah, bye,

201
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:11.559
week's coming in a good time.
Get some guys healthy, Uh,

202
00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:15.919
come back. We gotta we got
to grind ahead of us, so we

203
00:13:15.960 --> 00:13:18.600
got to get better. What was
going right in the first couple of drives

204
00:13:18.679 --> 00:13:22.639
show, well we were, we
were making plays, we were executing at

205
00:13:22.639 --> 00:13:26.679
a high level. Uh. Second
half we went did did they do anything

206
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:30.519
to change your rhythm? Did you
feel a different tempo to the game starting

207
00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:31.519
in the second hand? Yeah,
you got to give them credit. They

208
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.480
they made some adjustments that uh worked, worked for them, and we didn't.

209
00:13:35.559 --> 00:13:39.759
We didn't capitalize on our opportunities in
the second half. Did you say

210
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:43.759
short yard? She is up top
of the list of things you need face

211
00:13:43.879 --> 00:13:46.759
in the second half? This many
fact five one of many. Well,

212
00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:50.799
how would you how would you probably
get off that first? Not where we

213
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:52.960
want to be? Not where we
want to be. We've had we've had

214
00:13:54.039 --> 00:13:58.679
moments, but we just got to
put it all together. So we'll we'll

215
00:13:58.679 --> 00:14:01.559
evaluate this week and go from there. Do they want to give your heads

216
00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:05.159
off to get the ball? Rounder? No? I knew it was his

217
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:07.639
first one, though. What uh
kind of confidence that you have in this

218
00:14:07.799 --> 00:14:11.399
depense? In a game like that, you're on the sideline, games on

219
00:14:11.480 --> 00:14:13.200
the line, the third work down, they're near the goal line. What's

220
00:14:13.320 --> 00:14:18.519
what's that like for you? Yeah, it's uh, you know, like

221
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:20.320
I said, I'm confident in their
ability to get the job done. But

222
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:26.519
you know, just kept reflecting on
the moments that we had opportunities to to

223
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:28.639
put that game away when we didn't
take advantage of Like you have words with

224
00:14:28.720 --> 00:14:31.240
Jamal Adams in the first half.
Did you take an exception to that hit?

225
00:14:33.039 --> 00:14:37.639
No, that was just two tigers
talking. It wasn't anything crazy.

226
00:14:37.480 --> 00:14:41.480
Joe back here, Joe Mason said
this week, you get everything's still ahead

227
00:14:41.519 --> 00:14:43.759
of his team. You guys are
still right on track. You feel that

228
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:45.639
way? So good about where you
are right now? The one ing of

229
00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:48.840
to buy. Yeah, I feel
good. Everything's ahead of us. You

230
00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:52.360
know, it's a big win.
We like I said, we gotta get

231
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.120
better. Though. What do you
think of Jamar's game? I didn't see

232
00:14:56.120 --> 00:15:00.679
it. It's that chain did seem
I like it? Then? Is there

233
00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:05.200
a lot of conversation on the sideline
or more so when things aren't going well

234
00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:11.399
between you pitch, you know,
Zach even to try and get things right

235
00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.840
in a second man half. I
would say there's more, you know,

236
00:15:13.879 --> 00:15:16.200
there's always dialogue going on talking about
what we're seeing, what we want what

237
00:15:16.320 --> 00:15:20.320
we what we think can work,
so that's always going on. Zach called

238
00:15:20.360 --> 00:15:24.320
this winning ugly. There's winning ugly
to help, particularly the leader in the

239
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.639
season. Don't be good call back
our game with us. Well, when

240
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:28.519
the win's a win, you know, like I said, I'll never apologize

241
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:33.120
for a win, but win or
loss, there's always room to improve.

242
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:37.919
Are you almost less happy or excited
right now than you would be if it

243
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:41.440
was the other way? And you
guys have lit it up in the second

244
00:15:41.440 --> 00:15:48.039
half as well. I mean,
I'm I'm never gonna I've learned winning is

245
00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.799
too hard in this league to not
appreciate wins, so I'm gonna enjoy it.

246
00:15:50.919 --> 00:15:54.440
But like I said, there's still
a lot of room to improve,

247
00:15:54.519 --> 00:15:56.200
in a lot of room to grow. Joe Burrow talking about a seventeen thirteen

248
00:15:56.240 --> 00:16:00.639
win over the Seahawks, he started, like the proverbial else of fire.

249
00:16:00.080 --> 00:16:04.399
He was fifteen for fifteen in a
row, one point seventeen of nineteen in

250
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:07.679
his stretch, and that included one
that Joe Mixon dropped. He was rolling

251
00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:11.679
right from the shoot, and then
we've referenced the second half. It became

252
00:16:11.720 --> 00:16:15.120
a bit of a different story.
But man, they first two drives,

253
00:16:15.200 --> 00:16:18.159
it was smooth as could be.
In my eye, it looked like and

254
00:16:18.279 --> 00:16:25.720
particularly looking at it again after I
got home, in the first early stages

255
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:27.080
of the football game, they were
playing those soft zones they're known for,

256
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:32.000
and he was shredding them. He
was ripping them up. They started to

257
00:16:32.080 --> 00:16:34.720
go with a little bit more pressure
and some press coverage, some man coverage

258
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:40.440
and changed up what they had done
from a structure standpoint defensively, and the

259
00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:44.200
Bengals never really made great adjustments to
that. I mean, they didn't win

260
00:16:44.440 --> 00:16:48.440
on routes consistently enough. Their protection
became an issue with all the pressure that

261
00:16:48.559 --> 00:16:52.720
they were bringing. They were bringing
a lot of different bodies in a lot

262
00:16:52.759 --> 00:16:59.320
of different ways. It became a
chess match of which defensive coordinator can come

263
00:16:59.440 --> 00:17:04.599
up with the most clever, uh
pressure package, And and that definitely curtailed

264
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:07.559
what Joe Burrow was doing. For
sure. We've got less than a minute

265
00:17:07.599 --> 00:17:11.799
in this segment, but Joe took
some hits, I mean some hit and

266
00:17:11.920 --> 00:17:14.440
some hits that I thought, you
know, where where's the flag right?

267
00:17:15.079 --> 00:17:18.960
And DJ Reader got the shaft,
I thought, you know, quarterback sack

268
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:22.640
takes him to the ground. And
he didn't land right on top of him.

269
00:17:22.680 --> 00:17:26.880
I mean he didn't try to like
bury his and follow the natural follow

270
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:30.279
through taking him to the ground.
He had a picture perfect form tackle where

271
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:33.359
you hit with your shoulder, you
wrap your arms, and you go to

272
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:38.240
the ground. And the quarterback was
part of his body was underneath him as

273
00:17:38.279 --> 00:17:42.680
he went to the ground. And
I'll tell you what it h at.

274
00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:48.279
Football purists scoff at that one.
That's ridiculous. That was that was unbelievable

275
00:17:48.319 --> 00:17:52.279
call. Still add more on the
defense. We'll hear from Sam Hubbard up

276
00:17:52.359 --> 00:17:56.640
next Old Monster Day for him of
the defense that is. We continue with

277
00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:03.839
Bengals Life, first Stur Logistics Bengals
Radio Network in seven hundred Hey, let's

278
00:18:03.880 --> 00:18:07.319
keep it moving on this Monday night
of Bengals Conversation. We are knee deep

279
00:18:07.359 --> 00:18:11.640
now into the Bengals Talk on this
Monday edition of Bengals Line, the first

280
00:18:11.680 --> 00:18:15.759
Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network and seven
hundred WLW Lance by Allister Dave Lepham,

281
00:18:17.160 --> 00:18:19.880
Sir Lance. In this portion of
Bengals Line presented by Kettering Health, the

and pay Course Stadium providing the best care

283
00:18:26.559 --> 00:18:30.160
for the best fans. Sam Hubbard, big big day for the Bengals.

284
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:36.400
Let's hear from Sam. Here's Sam
Hubbard with Dave here in the Victoria's Bengals

285
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:41.160
locker room with defense and ends.
Sam Hubbard and Sam down the stretch.

286
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.960
I mean, the pass rush was
extraordinary. Coverage was a big assist there

287
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:48.200
too. Cover well on the back
end. The rush is going to get

288
00:18:48.240 --> 00:18:52.680
home. And that's exactly what took
place down the stretch. Yeah, just

289
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:56.279
a grind man, liked of Emperor
by everybody. You know, nothing more

290
00:18:56.359 --> 00:19:00.559
to say than I'm proud of these
guys. Five trips in the red zone

291
00:19:02.160 --> 00:19:06.319
three times, they scored no points. You guys had an interception in the

292
00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:10.039
red zone. You stopped them on
downs twice in the red zone, they

293
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:14.640
kicked the field goal, scored a
touchdown. Five red zone possessions, ten

294
00:19:14.759 --> 00:19:17.960
points. It's gonna win you a
lot of football games if we did it

295
00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:21.680
this week. We got a big
challenge after the buy. We're gonna enjoy

296
00:19:21.759 --> 00:19:23.559
this one for twenty four hours and
look forward to getting our bodies right for

297
00:19:23.599 --> 00:19:29.839
San Francisco. So this offense,
what was the what was the key to

298
00:19:29.920 --> 00:19:33.119
shutting this offense down. What do
you have to do to take this this

299
00:19:33.319 --> 00:19:36.200
offense out of their game. You
gotta be physical, we gotta be gaps

300
00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:40.880
sound. Their run game is an
incredible you know, really great weapons on

301
00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.960
the outside. We had to play
our best defense tackling wise, fundamental wise,

302
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:49.359
and get some turnovers. And we
did that today. You guys played

303
00:19:49.400 --> 00:19:55.319
complimentary football when the when the offense
had to step up their first two possessions

304
00:19:55.400 --> 00:19:59.240
they did score. You. You
backed the offense up when it needed you,

305
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:03.200
answer the offense back to defense up
when you guys needed them. It

306
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:06.880
was a good signed seat complimentary football
like that today. Yeah, definitely,

307
00:20:06.880 --> 00:20:08.440
And we know there's gonna be a
time where we're not playing our best in

308
00:20:08.519 --> 00:20:11.160
the offense is gonna pick us up. And that's a beauty of being on

309
00:20:11.279 --> 00:20:15.200
a good team with good players and
good people that want to play for each

310
00:20:15.240 --> 00:20:18.680
other. And it's fun being out
there with those guys. How big is

311
00:20:18.720 --> 00:20:21.480
it Sam to get a win like
this and to go into the buy we

312
00:20:21.720 --> 00:20:23.359
like you talked about now you're three
and three, you climb back out of

313
00:20:23.440 --> 00:20:26.400
the little bit of a hole you
three and three getting into that buy.

314
00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:30.480
It's huge man, that's what we
needed, That's what we talked about,

315
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:33.200
and I'm happy we got it done. A lot of football left, no

316
00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:37.000
question, a lot of football left
you. You got a lot of football

317
00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:40.039
and you congratulations on a big game, man, Thank you. Sam Hubbert

318
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:45.759
seven tackles, one sack, one
tackle for loss, five quarterback hits and

319
00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:51.680
Dave he played sixty five of the
seventy four snaps yesterday. He was out

320
00:20:51.720 --> 00:20:55.480
there all day and he was.
He was wreaking havoc all day. He

321
00:20:55.720 --> 00:21:02.119
was. And it just goes to
show you how finely tuned conditioning can help

322
00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:07.519
a football player. Because this guy
is unbelievable. We talked about his athletic

323
00:21:07.599 --> 00:21:11.039
prowess. He started out at Moler
as a defensive back, moved to linebacker,

324
00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:15.079
moved to down lineman. He has
unbelievable skills in a big body,

325
00:21:15.640 --> 00:21:19.640
and it's a body that is just
it's a machine. I mean, it

326
00:21:19.759 --> 00:21:26.039
is finally tuned. It's the oil
is up to the very tippity top.

327
00:21:26.119 --> 00:21:30.279
He's running on all every cylinder.
He is something else to watch and effort.

328
00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:36.920
There is never a snap that takes
place where Sam Hubbard does not empty

329
00:21:36.960 --> 00:21:41.799
the tank. Man. He gives
effort. He appreciates his opportunity, and

330
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.599
it's apparent every single snap this guy
takes, they've next Gen had a stat

331
00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:51.200
that caught my eye after the game. The Bengals defense yesterday the fourth since

332
00:21:51.240 --> 00:21:56.920
twenty twenty to have four different players
with at least six pressures in the same

333
00:21:56.039 --> 00:22:00.680
game. Sam, according to next
Gen, had went up with nine pressures,

334
00:22:00.759 --> 00:22:04.000
Tray had seven, DJ had six, and BJ had six. And

335
00:22:04.079 --> 00:22:07.359
that's I don't even want to leave
out Cambo had three. But it wasn't

336
00:22:07.480 --> 00:22:11.519
just a one man show. As
typically as with the lose defense. It's

337
00:22:11.519 --> 00:22:14.319
not a one man show. They're
coming at you from all angles, at

338
00:22:14.359 --> 00:22:19.680
all different ways they are, and
the down lineman did a nice job twisting

339
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:26.119
and stunning and staying in lanes.
When they did run those games, they

340
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:30.400
just they were overpowering. I will
say, though man Gino holds onto the

341
00:22:30.480 --> 00:22:33.400
ball, he holds onto the ball
a long time, and coverage has to

342
00:22:33.480 --> 00:22:37.960
be good because he's got really talented
receivers. He has a very good trio

343
00:22:38.039 --> 00:22:41.680
of receivers himself, and the back
end held up. I mean, the

344
00:22:41.720 --> 00:22:45.880
coverage was great and Gino now he's
at a point in his career where he

345
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:51.160
gets off a bad read quickly,
but then when he went to the next

346
00:22:51.200 --> 00:22:52.559
one, he thought it was bad. He thought it was bad, and

347
00:22:52.640 --> 00:22:56.559
by the time he came back to
another one, boom, it was too

348
00:22:56.680 --> 00:23:02.880
late. So there's all different forms
of complimentary football. Sometimes it's one phase

349
00:23:02.960 --> 00:23:06.720
with the other defense stepping up to
help the offense when they're struggling. Special

350
00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:11.160
teams help in both areas when they're
struggling. But within one phase of it,

351
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:15.119
you have a pass rush that's working
hard to get there. You have

352
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.920
coverage that's complimenting that pass rush,
and the pass rush eventually gets home,

353
00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:23.759
or the pass rush is so good
the quarterback throws the ball prematurely and an

354
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:29.920
interception happens on the back end.
So now you have complimentary football within you

355
00:23:30.000 --> 00:23:34.119
know that that's that phase of football, and the Bengals showed some of that,

356
00:23:34.240 --> 00:23:37.880
and that's a good sign. That's
where they have to get to.

357
00:23:37.279 --> 00:23:41.400
They have to They have not come
close to having a game this year where

358
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.920
all three phases are clicking at the
same time. They've had a great defensive

359
00:23:45.960 --> 00:23:52.680
performance, they've had pretty good offensive
performances, they've had very above average special

360
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:57.440
teams performances. But never in the
same game. And once that happens,

361
00:23:57.640 --> 00:24:02.160
look at watch out, Yeah,
then there'll be like an hour in a

362
00:24:02.240 --> 00:24:06.640
rhythm. Let's roll still ahead in
this hour, Cam Taylor Britt checks in.

363
00:24:07.079 --> 00:24:11.079
Second hour tonight, lou Anarumo,

Callahan and so much more. We're making

367
00:24:23.400 --> 00:24:27.200
our way through three hours of Bengals
conversation on a victory Monday, just like

368
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:32.319
we like it. It's Bengals Line

to the bye Prospects and the forty
nine ers as well. I'm Lance Bacallister.

373
00:24:52.200 --> 00:24:55.839
He is Dave Lapham and Bengals fans

374
00:24:55.960 --> 00:25:00.680
Horde every Wednesday this season for Bengals

air from six to eight pm on
ESPN fifteen thirty. Now we will not

376
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:07.880
be doing one this Wednesday, so
a week from Wednesday, we'll catch back

377
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:11.640
up with you on Bengals game Plan. Let's stay on the defensive side of

378
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.759
things and hear from a man who
had a huge day again back to back

379
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:21.759
games with interceptions his impact certainly felt
that would be Cam Taylor Britt. Here's

380
00:25:21.880 --> 00:25:23.480
Dan Horde. We're in the locker
room with a guy they called juice,

381
00:25:23.920 --> 00:25:30.400
Cam Taylor Britt, a huge interception
as the Bengals make one big defensive play

382
00:25:30.519 --> 00:25:33.359
after the other, down to stretch
to hold on and win. Tell me

383
00:25:33.440 --> 00:25:37.400
about what you guys did in the
red zone in this game. Now we

384
00:25:37.519 --> 00:25:38.880
just had to hold up. We
always realized, you know, yours no

385
00:25:38.920 --> 00:25:41.680
equal points and now they had the
opportunity to be in the red zone you

386
00:25:41.720 --> 00:25:45.000
know four times. I believe it
ended up with just three points out of

387
00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:47.799
those four. So you know,
we just really harp on that. You

388
00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:48.440
know, we got to you know, Stanson to os and you know,

389
00:25:48.519 --> 00:25:52.359
stand our ground with that. And
it wasn't just the red zone. It

390
00:25:52.440 --> 00:25:55.160
was the low low red. Yeah, they were like inside the five or

391
00:25:55.200 --> 00:25:59.079
inside the ten four times and six
drives in the second half and got three

392
00:25:59.160 --> 00:26:00.640
points. That's amazing. That's how
you hold up. Man, it's bingo

393
00:26:00.680 --> 00:26:04.279
defense. Tell me about the interception, because not only did you come up

394
00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:08.440
with a diving peck, but your
run back led to the field. Yeah.

395
00:26:08.519 --> 00:26:11.960
Man, it's something that I got
early on in the game. I

396
00:26:12.039 --> 00:26:15.240
got the same route, and you
know, once I just seen the inside

397
00:26:15.279 --> 00:26:17.839
release, I felt the coming.
He doesn't run too many routes, so

398
00:26:17.960 --> 00:26:21.640
you know, his roupture is very
limited. So once he went out inside,

399
00:26:21.680 --> 00:26:23.240
I already knew what was coming,
and I just literally you could see

400
00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:26.160
on film. I just ran underneath
it and yeah, the ball was coming.

401
00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:30.319
Yeah. Two weeks, two picks. Yeah, we gotta keep it

402
00:26:30.359 --> 00:26:34.240
going. Feel good. How about
being three and three after an on and

403
00:26:34.319 --> 00:26:37.400
two start and now going into the
by with kind of a fresh start and

404
00:26:37.400 --> 00:26:41.559
a five hundred record. It's about
zero zero I look at it. I

405
00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:42.960
think that's how a lot of guys
look at it. Like you said,

406
00:26:44.000 --> 00:26:45.200
a fresh start. You know,
we got to come back after the by,

407
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:48.279
you know, and just keep our
foot on. You know a lot

408
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:51.000
of people's next because it's not gonna
be easy, as we can see today,

409
00:26:51.680 --> 00:26:52.480
and we got to forty nine's coming
up. You know, right after

410
00:26:52.559 --> 00:26:56.720
the bar. There were so many
plays in the low red zone where they

411
00:26:56.799 --> 00:27:00.799
got to Geno Smith. As you're
covering in those situations, you hear a

412
00:27:00.920 --> 00:27:03.640
roar and realize they got to the
quarterback. Yeah, it's crazy. I

413
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:07.119
was actually Guardie k on one of
them, think a back line route,

414
00:27:07.279 --> 00:27:11.400
and they actually threw the balls to
move, but the ball was altered because

415
00:27:11.519 --> 00:27:15.200
I think Samrai trade got back there. But I knew the ball got altered

416
00:27:15.240 --> 00:27:18.599
because I heard the crowd bad because
I heard the crowd, So I look

417
00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:21.279
and the balls coming out like oh
all right. So you know it does

418
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:23.000
give me a little tips in there. And there I hear ball calls all

419
00:27:23.039 --> 00:27:26.640
the time. Man, maybe snapped
ahead or a lot of guys are waving

420
00:27:26.720 --> 00:27:27.920
their arms to get the crowd to
make a lot of noise. Did that

421
00:27:29.000 --> 00:27:30.319
make a difference in the red zone? Man? It was huge today.

422
00:27:30.400 --> 00:27:33.079
Man, I can honestly say I
couldn't hear a thing. I believe that's

423
00:27:33.119 --> 00:27:36.920
great. You know, I was
just going to line up, give me

424
00:27:36.960 --> 00:27:40.599
a signal and I got to play
implications. Was real hard out there towards

425
00:27:40.599 --> 00:27:41.480
the end of the game. But
you know that's why, you know,

426
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:45.599
that's where the standing man. We
live for those moments. Brat twn to

427
00:27:45.599 --> 00:27:48.039
win and enjoy the bye, Thank
you, thank you. Cam Taylor Britt

428
00:27:48.359 --> 00:27:53.319
following a seventeen thirteen win over the
Seahawks and Dave the makeup of Cam Taylor

429
00:27:53.359 --> 00:27:57.440
Britt and it's no wonder they loved
him when they plucked him out of Nebraska

430
00:27:57.519 --> 00:28:02.640
with the sixtieth pick. But there
is a there's a savviness there, there's

431
00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:07.440
an energy, there's an attitude.
You roll it all into one and it

432
00:28:07.640 --> 00:28:11.920
was on full display yesterday. And
he is built perfectly mindset wise to play

433
00:28:12.000 --> 00:28:15.319
corner because DK Metcalf beat him one
time up the sideline, and he's like

434
00:28:15.400 --> 00:28:21.400
it happens. DK Metcalf makes plays, he gets paid two, I'm gonna

435
00:28:21.400 --> 00:28:25.160
go make a play. And the
fact that he gets over that that kind

436
00:28:25.240 --> 00:28:30.119
of scenario so quickly and then he'll
he'll just line up and compete his tail

437
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:34.440
off again. There is no backing
off or backing down. It's a foreign

438
00:28:34.559 --> 00:28:40.000
subject to Cam Taylor Brit he is
gonna get after it and get after you

439
00:28:40.319 --> 00:28:44.519
while he's getting after it. And
DK had sixty nine yards, but receivers

440
00:28:44.519 --> 00:28:47.799
are gonna get yours. He was
targeting ten times, only had four catches

441
00:28:47.920 --> 00:28:52.119
yesterday, right, And and I
thought that Cam Taylor Brick got in his

442
00:28:52.200 --> 00:28:56.200
head and he had appendantly as a
result, and he was, you know,

443
00:28:56.359 --> 00:29:00.559
pleading his case to the officials.
So Cam Taylor brit somehow, either

444
00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:04.920
by his play or something that was
said or whatever they kept maybe a combination

445
00:29:06.079 --> 00:29:10.000
of all of it. But bottom
line is DK Metcalf was out of sorts,

446
00:29:10.240 --> 00:29:14.880
and that's always good when you can
get your opponent thinking about things other

447
00:29:14.960 --> 00:29:17.960
than what he should be doing and
how he should be doing them. And

448
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:21.359
David, how about some credit?
And well it pops into my head.

449
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:25.160
We haven't talked about him in a
while, but they deserve some run for

450
00:29:25.759 --> 00:29:30.720
just how this secondary has performed this
season. From Charles Burkes who worked with

451
00:29:30.839 --> 00:29:33.000
the corners, to Robert Livingston,
who works with the safeties, one in

452
00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:37.160
a second year, one in his
ninth, what those two do in molding

453
00:29:37.200 --> 00:29:41.000
a group that's got a nice blend
of youth and veteran and sabbiness has has

454
00:29:41.319 --> 00:29:47.079
has looked really looked look great.
Yeah. I think that they're great teachers.

455
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:49.960
I mean that's what coaches are first
and foremost teachers, and those guys

456
00:29:51.039 --> 00:29:55.160
are great teachers of the game of
football. And their players respond to them,

457
00:29:56.079 --> 00:30:00.599
you know, the young They're very
relatable when the players look at them

458
00:30:02.440 --> 00:30:07.319
as coaches. And and I think
two like you mentioned the veteran players.

459
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:12.599
It's there's a veteran at both position
groups that is, you know, doing

460
00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:18.440
a good job of raising the bar
in terms of preparation and all the things

461
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:21.640
that go along with it. Mike
Hilton had a huge interception. I mean

462
00:30:21.680 --> 00:30:26.359
that that interception in the red zone
was was massive. There's no question about

463
00:30:26.359 --> 00:30:27.880
it, no two ways about it. Because you know, Joe Burrow had

464
00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:33.079
suffered an interception and yep, and
Mike Hilton said, well, don't worry,

465
00:30:33.119 --> 00:30:37.359
we'll get it back and he did
exactly that. So you have veterans

466
00:30:37.920 --> 00:30:42.079
that do it the right way that
are the role models for those coaches,

467
00:30:42.160 --> 00:30:47.519
those young coaches that those position groups. It's put together extremely well from top

468
00:30:47.559 --> 00:30:51.759
to bottom. When the when the
waters get a little choppy and the waves

469
00:30:51.799 --> 00:30:55.079
are crashing into the shore, to
have a veteran like Mike Hilton. Just

470
00:30:55.200 --> 00:30:59.680
guys back there who can calm it
down. That's that's a really nice intangible

471
00:30:59.720 --> 00:31:03.000
to have. Absolutely and you know
you can you can talk about it all

472
00:31:03.079 --> 00:31:07.160
you want, but when the talk
is backed up by performance, now you

473
00:31:07.279 --> 00:31:11.279
get something very very special. I
mean, over the years, I can

474
00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:17.400
remember as a player, guys be
like that rings hollow Man, that dude,

475
00:31:17.400 --> 00:31:19.359
he can't even play. What the
hell's he talking about? But you

476
00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:25.279
got somebody that is out there making
plays. When he speaks, people listen.

477
00:31:25.440 --> 00:31:30.599
And and like guys that are really
good players, like Mike Hilton,

478
00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:34.160
they don't talk just for the sake
of talking. When they talk, people

479
00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:37.759
listen. I mean the classic Yeah. When that when they have something to

480
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:45.920
say, it's it's usually extremely important
and very pertinent, and people listen.

481
00:31:45.359 --> 00:31:48.400
Take another time out head down the
Stretch in our first hour. Lou An

482
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:52.119

to myself and Dan Horde from Bengals
pep Rally presented by Wings and Rings on

the air from three to six pm

489
00:32:21.359 --> 00:32:24.960
way, when Dan is on the
road doing Bengals basketball or football or whatever,

490
00:32:27.240 --> 00:32:31.160
Bengals game plan and Bengals pep Rally
will be hosted by Box Miller.

491
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:35.920
Lou will join us in our next
segment. And I want to ask him

492
00:32:35.960 --> 00:32:40.200
about this, but I'll ask you
first just the crowd yesterday and the number

493
00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:45.079
of defensive players who mentioned and gave
kudos to the crowd for the role they

494
00:32:45.119 --> 00:32:49.519
played yesterday. It was rather significant, was it? Absolutely? There's no

495
00:32:49.599 --> 00:32:53.319
two ways about it. I mean, we felt like the team that I

496
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:58.119
played on the went to Super Bowl
sixteen. We felt like when our home

497
00:32:58.240 --> 00:33:07.039
games were basically brutal to try to
operate and communicate and do all the things

498
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:12.960
you had to do as a visiting
team, and we just couldn't that variable,

499
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:17.240
that that factor in the football game
was immeasurable. Because we went on

500
00:33:17.680 --> 00:33:22.119
to places and obviously you do around
the league where it's impossible, it's impossible

501
00:33:22.119 --> 00:33:28.240
to hear yourself even think. And
man, when Riverfront Stadium turned into that,

502
00:33:28.720 --> 00:33:31.240
that was like gold, solid gold. Man, it gave you such

503
00:33:31.240 --> 00:33:37.160
a huge edge. And like coach
and Rumo talked about Seattle, they've had

504
00:33:37.200 --> 00:33:39.799
it for years, and there are
teams around the league that have had that

505
00:33:39.960 --> 00:33:44.720
type of type of advantage for years, and Cincinnati he's got it now.

506
00:33:45.519 --> 00:33:49.839
And we mentioned earlier on in the
hour the number of different contributors. We'll

507
00:33:49.880 --> 00:33:52.799
talk with Lou about this as well. You mentioned the four linebackers in on

508
00:33:52.880 --> 00:33:57.640
the second goal in the third quarter
and Joe Bachi comes up with a shares

509
00:33:57.680 --> 00:34:00.119
the tackle. It's a one yard
loss. That was the only snap he

510
00:34:00.279 --> 00:34:05.160
played yesterday, but Lou had faith
to put him in in that package.

511
00:34:05.759 --> 00:34:08.880
And Joe Bachi along with Marcus Bailey
each got one snap yesterday defensively, and

512
00:34:09.000 --> 00:34:13.760
that was the play. And that
was a contributor yesterday, no doubt.

513
00:34:13.840 --> 00:34:17.079
I mean, he only had four
linebackers actor for the game. Davis Gaither

514
00:34:19.039 --> 00:34:22.920
looks like he's had a scope procedure
on that knee, so he wasn't available,

515
00:34:23.039 --> 00:34:25.840
so he went with the four linebacker
package. Those are the guys.

516
00:34:27.320 --> 00:34:29.480
Those are the guys that he's going
to count on to make a play,

517
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:36.440
and they all did their job superbly
and one yard loss was the result.

518
00:34:37.280 --> 00:34:39.719
There is much more to get to
in our second and third hour, a

519
00:34:39.760 --> 00:34:45.599
look at the dock that includes lou
An Roumo heading headlining hour number two.

520
00:34:45.679 --> 00:34:49.800
We'll hear from Tyler Boyd he have
seven targets and seven catches yesterday, Ted

521
00:34:49.960 --> 00:34:54.039
Karris on the offensive line. We'll
hear from Yoshi Yoshi on his touchdown,

522
00:34:54.400 --> 00:34:59.199
and then Brian Callahan will check in
in our third hour tonight. All of

523
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:01.639
that plus look at the quick look
ahead at the forty nine ers for the

524
00:35:01.719 --> 00:35:05.760
buy, where things sit in the
AFC North, and of course we wrap

525
00:35:05.880 --> 00:35:09.599
things up with game ball presentations.
You'll hear that at the end of the

526
00:35:09.679 --> 00:35:13.559
show. It's all ahead, as
we've put one of the books in two

we always look forward to him joining

538
00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:14.360
You do the honors. Well,
all I can say is I have a

539
00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:20.239
publisher lined up and the book is
going to be Red Zone Defense by Luanna

540
00:36:20.320 --> 00:36:22.079
Roumo. I mean, come on, now, are you kidding me?

541
00:36:22.519 --> 00:36:27.360
That was just one hell of a
defensive performance overall, but the red zone

542
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:31.320
extraordinary. I mean, I don't
think I've seen anything close and have back

543
00:36:31.400 --> 00:36:36.119
to back red zone possessions like that
and that short of time frame, and

544
00:36:36.199 --> 00:36:40.119
to stand up as large as you
stood up and your defensive football team.

545
00:36:40.159 --> 00:36:45.840
That's extraordinary. Well, I appreciate
it, could be more proud of the

546
00:36:45.360 --> 00:36:50.960
players. Man, we have.
I think everybody knows we've got some warriors

547
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:54.920
on defense, and you know,
those guys showed up at the most critical

548
00:36:55.000 --> 00:36:59.559
times yesterday and certainly at the end
of the game to seal it in our

549
00:36:59.599 --> 00:37:04.960
front as you know, the steal
the Yankees phrase the core four, BJ,

550
00:37:05.639 --> 00:37:09.440
Sam and Trey. I mean,
you know they just never quit and

551
00:37:09.760 --> 00:37:13.480
and and the rest of our guys
too. But you know, you can

552
00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:17.320
see the pressure that they put on
uh Gino yesterday and it paid off.

553
00:37:17.760 --> 00:37:22.639
Take us through the final play,
fourth down and BJ and Sam get the

554
00:37:22.679 --> 00:37:25.039
Gino and smack him and the incompletion
take us through that point. Well they

555
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:29.280
had we had called time out,
I believe the previous just to kind of

556
00:37:29.360 --> 00:37:31.320
see a little bit little basketball,
you know, see what's going on.

557
00:37:31.599 --> 00:37:36.119
And uh they came back out in
the same set, which was nice.

558
00:37:37.119 --> 00:37:39.719
And Uh, I had two thoughts
in my head, and I'm glad I

559
00:37:39.760 --> 00:37:45.519
went with the one I went with. Man, you uh you had a

560
00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:50.679
snap. We had all four linebackers
out there, so that was that was

561
00:37:50.760 --> 00:37:53.039
something new. I'm sure they were
like, yeah, we hadn't seen that.

562
00:37:53.159 --> 00:37:59.960
We weren't prepped for that one necessarily, and you're different looks up from

563
00:38:00.320 --> 00:38:05.960
your disguising coverages on the back end. Gino was holding the football a lot,

564
00:38:06.199 --> 00:38:10.000
and your coverage was extraordinary allowing the
pressure to ultimately get there. It

565
00:38:10.119 --> 00:38:14.599
was Uh, it was. It
was complimentary football. It's finest between your

566
00:38:14.639 --> 00:38:16.280
front and your back end, wasn't
it. Yeah, I thought Russian coverage

567
00:38:16.440 --> 00:38:22.880
definitely worked well. Uh, yesterday, you know then when you certainly need

568
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.199
to start off better. The first
drive was not what we wanted, but

569
00:38:27.360 --> 00:38:29.559
after that, you know, that
was the only touchdown of the day,

570
00:38:29.679 --> 00:38:34.239
so yeah, well, uh we'll
keep we'll we'll take that, but yeah,

571
00:38:34.400 --> 00:38:37.440
need to do better. We we
tackled better. We were right around

572
00:38:37.519 --> 00:38:42.000
five missed tackles for the day,
which is, you know, an acceptable

573
00:38:42.079 --> 00:38:45.159
number. You don't want to miss
any but in this league you're gonna miss

574
00:38:45.199 --> 00:38:49.119
some. So h that was better. Certainly, as you mentioned, red

575
00:38:49.159 --> 00:38:52.559
zone was fantastic. They're down was
pretty good and uh, you know,

576
00:38:52.079 --> 00:38:57.760
the running back had sixty yards and
that's what's important. Dave mentioned the four

577
00:38:57.840 --> 00:39:01.519
linebackers third quarter, second and goal
two thirty to go, Bacci and Bailey.

578
00:39:02.320 --> 00:39:07.840
Bacci comes up with shares the tackle. That was the only snap that

579
00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:10.400
Baci and Bailey played defensively for you. But that is to me, that's

580
00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:15.280
trust and that's preparation, and that's
taking advantage of an opportunity. I think

581
00:39:15.320 --> 00:39:19.039
so we and those guys have played
meaningful snaps for us in the past.

582
00:39:19.079 --> 00:39:22.920
They've started games when we've had injuries, yep, So they know we trust

583
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:28.360
them and it's a it's a particular
call that we have and they came in

584
00:39:28.480 --> 00:39:30.239
and executed. So it was great. It got us to third down,

585
00:39:30.360 --> 00:39:35.360
yep, you know, got to
stop. So that was good. Cam

586
00:39:35.440 --> 00:39:39.920
Taylor britt interception and back to back
games. The two quarterbacks that you faced

587
00:39:40.119 --> 00:39:45.239
the last two weeks had a grand
total of one interception in the games prior

588
00:39:45.280 --> 00:39:50.079
to playing you. When they played
you, they both gave up multiple interceptions.

589
00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:52.440
I mean, you get four interceptions
off a pair of quarterbacks that had

590
00:39:52.559 --> 00:39:58.320
one on the season combined going into
those football games. How proud are you

591
00:39:58.480 --> 00:40:01.280
of that turnover factor? Well,
we knew Cam had a good matchup going

592
00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:04.480
in. It was going to be
a physical matchup, which we knew.

593
00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:07.320
Uh, you know, we wanted
to take it right to the line and

594
00:40:07.400 --> 00:40:12.559
not cross it. And that's what
we got accomplished. I believe he had

595
00:40:12.599 --> 00:40:16.639
a metcalf had a personal foul,
which was which was good for us.

596
00:40:17.039 --> 00:40:23.440
Came didn't I guess they did.
But yeah, Cam's a tough, tough

597
00:40:23.559 --> 00:40:29.679
competitor and uh, you know played
out well for us yesterday in that matchup.

598
00:40:30.079 --> 00:40:32.760
How big was I was struck by
how many of your guys mentioned the

599
00:40:32.920 --> 00:40:37.079
crowd after the game. How big
was that yesterday? Just annoy I mean,

600
00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:39.880
they get behind us so well.
I I remember sitting here last week

601
00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:44.400
saying how I knew it would affect
the game. And you know they're used

602
00:40:44.440 --> 00:40:45.840
to it Seattle, that is when
they are playing at home, you know,

603
00:40:46.559 --> 00:40:51.119
twelfth Man and all that stuff,
and they they do a phenomenal job.

604
00:40:51.159 --> 00:40:55.559
That's an incredibly hard place to play
and and we've made we've made our

605
00:40:55.599 --> 00:40:59.800
place that way, and you know, when opposing offenses come in, they

606
00:40:59.880 --> 00:41:01.960
know it is not gonna you're gonna
have to deal with us on the field

607
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:07.480
as well as the noise, which
affects you know, it affects the offenses,

608
00:41:07.559 --> 00:41:10.000
so and you know it really helps
our guys, that's for sure.

609
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:15.639
We fed off it yesterday. The
I guess the other side of it is

610
00:41:15.239 --> 00:41:19.880
when you have to communicate on the
back end or linebackers to dbs or whatever

611
00:41:20.320 --> 00:41:22.800
is, everything has to be hand
signals, right. I mean, there's

612
00:41:22.000 --> 00:41:25.880
there's not very much dialogue that can
go on with that noise. Sometimes we

613
00:41:27.400 --> 00:41:30.199
will dial some of the things back
at home just because of the lack of

614
00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:34.400
communication. Where we're on the road, we can hear each other talk better.

615
00:41:35.599 --> 00:41:39.079
We got we had one snap,
I think two snaps yesterday where we

616
00:41:39.239 --> 00:41:44.199
all weren't on the same page because
of that. Thank god, it didn't

617
00:41:44.239 --> 00:41:46.280
cost us. They got a first
down on one of them, but we

618
00:41:46.400 --> 00:41:51.880
ended up stopping them. So but
yeah, it's it's got to be you

619
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:54.880
know, as we say, championship
communication when we're at home because of the

620
00:41:55.079 --> 00:41:59.880
because of the noise. Sure,
with Cheeto dealing with with the back and

621
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:01.280
trying to get it out, DJ
Turner got a lot of run. How

622
00:42:01.320 --> 00:42:05.760
did he hold up yesterday? It
did well. Keeps us improving and uh

623
00:42:06.159 --> 00:42:07.719
you know, uh, like you
said, Cheeto, you know another one

624
00:42:07.719 --> 00:42:10.079
of those guys, just a warrior, just trying to give us whatever he

625
00:42:10.199 --> 00:42:14.719
had. And you know, so
we got to get him healthy. But

626
00:42:15.079 --> 00:42:20.519
DJ's doing a good job getting better
with each game. The history already in

627
00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:25.440
the last even two or three years, the red zone performances and it's a

628
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:28.679
lot of the same guys, but
there are new guys. I mean there

629
00:42:28.719 --> 00:42:32.599
were It's it's never the same year
to year. The fact that your players

630
00:42:32.639 --> 00:42:37.679
can respond to you doing in those
crisis moments as such, you know where

631
00:42:38.000 --> 00:42:43.039
the game is on the line and
it's like, okay, hey put up

632
00:42:43.079 --> 00:42:45.840
her, shut up, this is
this is it right here? What what

633
00:42:45.079 --> 00:42:51.599
is it that that makes you able
to raise those guys up in those scenarios.

634
00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:52.599
Well, I think they do a
good job preparing. You know,

635
00:42:52.679 --> 00:42:55.880
we have we try to get a
head start on the red zone early in

636
00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:00.400
the week, very early, I
think, more earlier than I've ever done

637
00:43:00.760 --> 00:43:05.519
or been. So that certainly helps
when we do that, and they have

638
00:43:05.599 --> 00:43:10.840
a good feel and we don't change
We certainly change up. But the core

639
00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:16.000
of what we do showed up yesterday
and they know it, they know how

640
00:43:16.039 --> 00:43:20.719
to play it, they know where
the weakness weak spots of it are,

641
00:43:20.840 --> 00:43:24.599
and they certainly know where their help
is and things like that. So yesterday

642
00:43:24.840 --> 00:43:29.840
we had a particular call to make
sure we knew where their top targets were

643
00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:32.880
down there, and as we always
tell them in critical moments, it's about

644
00:43:34.119 --> 00:43:37.159
players, not plays, and we
knew they were going to try to feed

645
00:43:37.199 --> 00:43:42.039
the ball to sixteen and fourteen.
Sure, after everything that has transpired in

646
00:43:42.079 --> 00:43:45.079
the first six games, how does
it feel to be three and three now?

647
00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:47.320
To buy it a chance to collect
yourself and go forward. Yeah,

648
00:43:47.480 --> 00:43:52.719
it's you know, we're fortunate to
be where we're at. Certainly we would

649
00:43:52.760 --> 00:43:55.320
want to be a little bit better, but you know we're back to back

650
00:43:55.360 --> 00:43:59.920
to even now, and which was
huge, you know, to get back

651
00:44:00.119 --> 00:44:02.920
here. Uh, just the way
it started. And then you know,

652
00:44:04.039 --> 00:44:06.639
get one on the road last week
and then come back and getting this one

653
00:44:06.679 --> 00:44:10.599
against a really good football team.
We'll get a nice needed break. Our

654
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:15.400
guys played a bunch of plays yesterday
and are beat up a little bit,

655
00:44:15.679 --> 00:44:19.559
and then you know, head out
west for for a great challenge against the

656
00:44:19.639 --> 00:44:24.320
Niners. Sam played sixty five snaps
yesterday. Man, he was well,

657
00:44:24.719 --> 00:44:30.320
he is. Excuse me. Nobody
takes care of his body more than you

658
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:32.079
know they all do, but Sam's
on top of it. And so him

659
00:44:32.119 --> 00:44:35.000
this morning, I said, how
you feeling. He said, great.

660
00:44:35.159 --> 00:44:37.920
You know, God bless him,
you know, I you know, we

661
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:43.079
were thinking about substituting there at the
end on that last drive, and I

662
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:45.519
just went over to him and I
said, I need all four of you

663
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:47.679
to go out there and win this
game for us. You know, I

664
00:44:47.719 --> 00:44:52.840
don't want to put, you know, nothing against our backups because they're they

665
00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:57.159
can do a great job. But
you know, those as I mentioned,

666
00:44:57.360 --> 00:45:00.320
they're warriors, right, So they
came up and they did They did a

667
00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:04.800
phenomenal job. And they've done it
before. I mean they get the experience

668
00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:06.960
of, you know, haven't done
it for you before. I mean,

669
00:45:07.039 --> 00:45:13.320
that's that's a man. There's there's
nothing more than the intangible of been there,

670
00:45:13.440 --> 00:45:16.519
done that, have the experience.
The confidence level just man just rises

671
00:45:16.599 --> 00:45:20.840
and uh and and they look at
each other. I can remember being in

672
00:45:20.920 --> 00:45:22.960
games where looking at my center,
looking at my tackle, I don't want

673
00:45:23.000 --> 00:45:25.559
to be the one to screw this
up. I'm gonna make sure you know,

674
00:45:25.679 --> 00:45:29.079
I'm gonna do it right. And
those guys seem to have that type

675
00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:32.880
of relationship where they're not only doing
it for themselves obviously the professional football players,

676
00:45:34.199 --> 00:45:36.880
they care about the guys on either
side of them as well. There's

677
00:45:36.920 --> 00:45:40.679
no doubt. You know, it's
a great, great room that we have

678
00:45:42.559 --> 00:45:45.519
with the defensive guys and and certainly
how they want to respond as you mentioned,

679
00:45:45.599 --> 00:45:50.119
and play for each other. You
know, I heard them in the

680
00:45:50.280 --> 00:45:52.639
behind me as they're taking the field. You know, just put the ball

681
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:55.199
down. Just let's do it again, you know, DJ Reader, Cheeto,

682
00:45:55.400 --> 00:46:00.840
those guys just you know, rallying
the troops. And that's what that's

683
00:46:00.840 --> 00:46:04.000
what we ended up doing. I
seem to remember last year on the bye,

684
00:46:04.320 --> 00:46:07.440
you may have attended a college football
game. Are you doing anything fun

685
00:46:07.480 --> 00:46:12.559
this year? Yeah? I am
gonna attend the same college football game.

686
00:46:13.280 --> 00:46:16.719
So we're go see my son over
at WVU. I believe they're playing Oklahoma

687
00:46:16.760 --> 00:46:21.800
State. I'm hoping for a little
bit better weather than last year. I

688
00:46:21.880 --> 00:46:25.000
sat in the in the stands in
the rain, but we did and my

689
00:46:25.079 --> 00:46:29.599
wife would not let me leave the
game. So we're gonna watch to the

690
00:46:29.639 --> 00:46:31.239
bitter end. And they won,
so it was nice. But yeah,

691
00:46:31.320 --> 00:46:36.079
So we're heading to Morgantown this weekend
to see see my butt, my son

692
00:46:36.199 --> 00:46:38.079
and then hopefully, like I said, we'll get some good weather over there.

693
00:46:38.400 --> 00:46:42.239
Played Morgantown a couple of times in
college, coach, when I played

694
00:46:42.239 --> 00:46:45.079
at Syracuse, that's a crowd that
gets after it. They get after it,

695
00:46:45.199 --> 00:46:46.679
man, and they are right on
top of you. I mean,

696
00:46:46.719 --> 00:46:50.559
I could not believe the first time
I played there. It's like, man,

697
00:46:50.599 --> 00:46:52.519
why don't they just throw them right
on our bench? I mean,

698
00:46:52.559 --> 00:46:54.840
they're right there. It's something I
would I remember the same things when I

699
00:46:54.920 --> 00:46:59.119
was a GA. It's Syracuse back
in the day. And you know that

700
00:46:59.280 --> 00:47:02.119
was a bitter rye back in the
big East days of the West. Virginia

701
00:47:02.119 --> 00:47:07.440
and Syracuse not like each other,
and and yeah it was. It was

702
00:47:07.639 --> 00:47:10.079
a fun place to go play,
for sure. I'm now I'm glad I'm

703
00:47:10.119 --> 00:47:14.800
just watching. I could sit there
and say, huh, I wouldn't have

704
00:47:14.840 --> 00:47:21.360
done that. Good scene. News
always. Maybe I'll get a Twitter account

705
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:24.159
for the weekend. That would be
good. Yeah it is. That's a

706
00:47:24.280 --> 00:47:28.000
joke. No, that would be
good. Yeah, really good. Yeah,

707
00:47:28.119 --> 00:47:30.920
whatever it's called. Yeah, congratulations, good scene. You enjoyed the

708
00:47:30.920 --> 00:47:34.639
bye, appreciate it, Thank you, appreciated. Coach Lou and Romo take

709
00:47:34.679 --> 00:47:37.480

716
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:12.800
targeted seven times. Tyler Boyd seven
catches, including a touchdown. Here's the

717
00:48:12.800 --> 00:48:15.719
Bengals wide receiver with Dan Horror.
Bengals scored on their first two drives today

718
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:19.440
and the first one was a touchdown
catch for Tyler Boyd. Good to be

719
00:48:19.599 --> 00:48:21.960
back in the end zone again,
isn't it? Yes? I throw every

720
00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:23.559
time you get in there, you
know, you get a saiday and you

721
00:48:23.719 --> 00:48:27.440
just feel good because you worked so
hard just to score a touchdowns and just

722
00:48:27.480 --> 00:48:30.400
make plays, you know, And
they robbed me last week. But I'm

723
00:48:30.440 --> 00:48:34.400
just glad I got back in there
this week. They did rob you last

724
00:48:34.440 --> 00:48:37.280
week because Alex Kapa, that was
a bogus call. Yeah, they they

725
00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:39.679
that was that was Yankee, you
know, but you can't kind of complain

726
00:48:39.760 --> 00:48:42.920
too much that I go out there
in the next play. All right,

727
00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:46.159
let's start with the good. The
first two drives were textbook, right down

728
00:48:46.239 --> 00:48:51.239
the field, methodically, touchdown,
touchdown. What did you feel was going

729
00:48:51.320 --> 00:48:52.639
right during those two drives? We
just had a rhythm, you know,

730
00:48:52.719 --> 00:48:55.920
everything we was calling and what we
seeing them guys do on tape. We

731
00:48:57.079 --> 00:49:00.679
we kind of knew what they was
going to give us, and we were

732
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:02.079
taking everything we got, you know, and kind of slowed down in the

733
00:49:02.119 --> 00:49:06.000
second half, you know, but
still made enough plays to still kind of

734
00:49:06.000 --> 00:49:07.400
win the game. But at the
end of the day, it was a

735
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:10.360
great team win. Defense applot to
them, but we got to play way

736
00:49:10.440 --> 00:49:15.079
better as a whole after those first
two drives. Did they make significant adjustments?

737
00:49:15.199 --> 00:49:19.519
What happened to slow you guys down
after that? To be honest,

738
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.280
I can't quite say. I don't
really know. So we've watched our tape,

739
00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:24.119
but I kind of felt like the
game plan was great, you know,

740
00:49:24.199 --> 00:49:29.760
we just wasn't clicking. The pressure
started coming real heavy. I mean,

741
00:49:29.960 --> 00:49:34.039
until I see the tape. We
gotta regardless, we gotta clean up

742
00:49:34.039 --> 00:49:36.760
a few things, and I'm just
glad we ended up putting it off for

743
00:49:36.880 --> 00:49:38.800
chatting with Tyler Boyd. Let's talk
about the defense. In the second half,

744
00:49:39.079 --> 00:49:43.960
Seattle was in the low red zones
four times and six drives and got

745
00:49:44.079 --> 00:49:47.360
three points. As you're watching that, what are you thinking about the defensive

746
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:52.679
performance? Oh man? Just since
the last two years. But I knew

747
00:49:52.679 --> 00:49:53.960
we had one of the top defense
in the whole league, you know,

748
00:49:54.079 --> 00:49:58.840
and not one time have ever doubted
them, you know, regardless of me

749
00:49:58.920 --> 00:50:00.599
being a part of the team or
not. You know, I know that

750
00:50:00.679 --> 00:50:02.360
we got one of the top defense
and we respected for that, you know.

751
00:50:02.440 --> 00:50:06.119
And our defense played good man,
shut lights out. You know.

752
00:50:06.159 --> 00:50:08.599
They have what four times down there
in one field goal, two three and

753
00:50:08.639 --> 00:50:14.760
outs. Uh man, that's that's
impeccable. Man, that's man. I

754
00:50:15.199 --> 00:50:17.719
can't plot them guys much. Man. They they they did it for us,

755
00:50:17.760 --> 00:50:21.360
and I hang my het up for
them, even with your confidence in

756
00:50:21.440 --> 00:50:25.000
them. How nerve wracking was it
to watch those opportunity It's very nerve wracking

757
00:50:25.000 --> 00:50:28.280
because at the end of the day, it's still football. Seahawks is a

758
00:50:28.320 --> 00:50:30.039
great team, and uh you can
find ways to get an end zone,

759
00:50:30.079 --> 00:50:32.519
you know, and they're right through
the seven yard line a couple of times

760
00:50:32.519 --> 00:50:37.039
there on the two yard line,
and man, it was it's just messes

761
00:50:37.079 --> 00:50:39.679
with you mentally a little bit.
But just gotta kind of stay poison,

762
00:50:39.800 --> 00:50:42.519
just kind of believe, you know, at that point, you just got

763
00:50:42.599 --> 00:50:45.800
to hope for the best and not
the worst. But we're always prepared for

764
00:50:45.880 --> 00:50:50.039
the worst, so in any moment, we were ready for it. You've

765
00:50:50.079 --> 00:50:52.840
won two straight, three out,
three out of four, and you've hit

766
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:55.320
five hundred going into the buy.
How do you feel kind of about the

767
00:50:55.400 --> 00:50:59.519
reset now with the buy coming out? It's huge. It's huge, you

768
00:50:59.559 --> 00:51:01.880
know, because now we're kind of
getting in our rhythms, kind of getting

769
00:51:01.920 --> 00:51:07.360
in ourselves again. We are starting
to starting to be who he was at

770
00:51:07.360 --> 00:51:09.239
the end of last year, you
know. But like I said, we

771
00:51:09.280 --> 00:51:13.239
still got more work to do in
his bye week airby get their bodies right

772
00:51:13.320 --> 00:51:15.679
and we got a real, real, real tough when we get back,

773
00:51:15.719 --> 00:51:16.880
you know with the forty and nine
ers, So we got to come in

774
00:51:16.920 --> 00:51:21.920
a game once we get back,
but just get guys healthy and let's let's

775
00:51:21.960 --> 00:51:25.119
wrong. Congrats sound to TV and
the win appreciate you both a TD for

776
00:51:25.239 --> 00:51:29.760
TV chatting with us in the locker
room after the Bengals win Oversea. Autum

777
00:51:29.920 --> 00:51:34.880
Tyler seven catches thirty eight yards and
a touchdown and Dave we we certainly talked

778
00:51:34.920 --> 00:51:37.000
a lot about Jamar Chase last week, and we've talked a lot about just

779
00:51:37.039 --> 00:51:44.559
the overall the depth of this wide
receiver group and the Wiley he's twenty eight,

780
00:51:44.599 --> 00:51:49.360
he's not old, but the Wiley
veteran who just he does the job

781
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:52.840
week in and week out and ask
seven different times, target at seven different

782
00:51:52.880 --> 00:51:57.599
times, delivers each and every time. And it was it was Tyler Boyd.

783
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:01.400
What Tyler Boyd does eighth year in
the National Football League. That's amazing

784
00:52:01.440 --> 00:52:06.039
when you think about it. Eight
years here with the Cincinnati Bengals out of

785
00:52:06.079 --> 00:52:12.960
Pittsburgh, second round draft pick in
twenty sixteen, and he is I mean,

786
00:52:13.039 --> 00:52:19.239
every coach that's coached here has mentioned
Tyler Boyd is one of those unsung

787
00:52:19.360 --> 00:52:22.280
heroes in terms of taking care of
people in the locker room. I mean,

788
00:52:22.320 --> 00:52:27.199
he gets it on so many levels. And he's been a great player,

789
00:52:28.519 --> 00:52:30.679
you know, consistent performer. You
know what you're going to get out

790
00:52:30.719 --> 00:52:35.280
of Tyler Boyd. Every time his
number is called, he answers the bell.

791
00:52:36.119 --> 00:52:40.039
He never disappoints you if he doesn't
get a whole lot of action.

792
00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:46.599
He never gripes complaints, never airs
dirty laundry. It's all handled like pros

793
00:52:46.639 --> 00:52:52.239
pro that he is. He's the
kind of guy nuts and bolts of a

794
00:52:52.280 --> 00:52:55.360
football team. Yep. And when
you have a Tyler Boyd in your locker

795
00:52:55.440 --> 00:53:00.119
room, you're better off for it, well said. Still ahead, how

796
00:53:00.119 --> 00:53:05.039
about we talk O line offensive line? Ted Carris checks in later on.

797
00:53:06.000 --> 00:53:08.880
We'll talk with the other Bengal wide
receiver who had a touchdown catch yesterday.

798
00:53:09.000 --> 00:53:13.559
That and more as we make our
way through this Monday evening, a victory

799
00:53:13.760 --> 00:53:16.639
Monday. It's Bengals Line. We're
on the first Star Logistics Bengals Radio network

800
00:53:16.960 --> 00:53:23.880
and seven hundred WLW. Hey,
we're rolling right along on this Monday night,

801
00:53:24.039 --> 00:53:28.400
making our way through our number two
of three on Bengals Line. We're

802
00:53:28.440 --> 00:53:31.519
on the first Star Logistics Bengals Radio
network in seven hundred WLW. I'm Llonce

803
00:53:31.559 --> 00:53:36.199
Pacallister. He is Dave Blapham,
Yes, Sir Lance and the Cincinnati Bengals

804
00:53:36.280 --> 00:53:38.880
upgraded the Wi Fi pay course Stadium
with the help of their new internet provider,

805
00:53:39.039 --> 00:53:45.360
Alta Fiber, future proof fiber internet
cable capable of delivering multi gigabit speeds

806
00:53:45.400 --> 00:53:49.719
designed to take your home, business, and community to a new level.

807
00:53:49.960 --> 00:53:52.679
Elevate your connection with Alta Fibers,
take it up front. Let's talk O

808
00:53:53.039 --> 00:53:58.920
line with Ted Karris. Ted.
First couple of drives, first two possessions,

809
00:53:59.599 --> 00:54:01.360
red zone touchdown, red zone touch
and they'd only allowed people in the

810
00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:05.119
red zone eight times all year,
but when people get in there, they

811
00:54:05.159 --> 00:54:07.800
scored touchdowns. They'd scored seven.
So you guys score two for two in

812
00:54:07.840 --> 00:54:13.039
the red zone. Defense they only
give up one touchdown and five red zone

813
00:54:13.039 --> 00:54:16.440
opportunities of field going three times no
points. Red zone won the football game

814
00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:20.559
today. Yeah, defense won the
football game today. Let's let's give a

815
00:54:20.559 --> 00:54:22.719
lot of shout out to them.
The story going into bye week should be

816
00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:28.679
our defense is elite like they've been
for a long time. Won the game

817
00:54:28.760 --> 00:54:30.519
for us today. I thought we
did some good stuff in the first half,

818
00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:35.519
didn't really get much going in the
second. But you know, that's

819
00:54:35.519 --> 00:54:38.239
a good football team, that's a
playoff football team coming into town. Really

820
00:54:38.480 --> 00:54:45.239
really grateful to even up our record
going into a week off. Kudos to

821
00:54:45.320 --> 00:54:47.079
the d I mean, as much
as I'll say that as much as I

822
00:54:47.159 --> 00:54:51.039
can this week. That was unbelievable
performance by them. I mean, there

823
00:54:51.079 --> 00:54:53.840
are backs against the wall on the
ten yard line three times in a row

824
00:54:53.920 --> 00:54:57.840
to win the game. So three
drives in a row really to win the

825
00:54:57.880 --> 00:55:00.440
game. So that's unbelievable. We
want to be able to do a little

826
00:55:00.440 --> 00:55:07.599
bit more for him. Situational run
game poor on us. I thought we

827
00:55:07.639 --> 00:55:12.559
did a good job protecting though.
I thought we had a pretty solid day

828
00:55:12.559 --> 00:55:15.559
against a really really good front.
I mean, that's a good group over

829
00:55:15.599 --> 00:55:19.039
there. That's a Pete Carroll defense
with the Hall of Fame Mike linebacker.

830
00:55:19.199 --> 00:55:22.239
So you know, glad we did
enough to win. Still, some things

831
00:55:22.280 --> 00:55:24.280
at work on. We're going to
take a good look at ourselves this week,

832
00:55:24.360 --> 00:55:29.719
get some rest, get ready to
go out to San fran which is

833
00:55:29.719 --> 00:55:34.079
gonna be a big one. So
the first two possessions go exceedingly well.

834
00:55:34.679 --> 00:55:37.960
And then did they do anything different? Did they make any halftime adjustments that

835
00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:43.159
were extraordinaries? Was it just not
quite just to tick off execution wise to

836
00:55:43.199 --> 00:55:45.400
the offense? What was the deal? They already think that. I'm sure

837
00:55:45.440 --> 00:55:47.440
they made some adjustments, and that's
also Hall of Fame coach over there.

838
00:55:49.400 --> 00:55:52.280
I think probably the main thing I'll
look at the film. They probably went

839
00:55:52.320 --> 00:55:55.119
for more of a too high shell
to play in, you know, middlefield

840
00:55:55.199 --> 00:55:59.880
closed, blitzing a little bit more. They blitzed Bobby quite a bit.

841
00:56:00.440 --> 00:56:06.239
But overall solid performance. I mean, left some things on there on offense,

842
00:56:06.320 --> 00:56:09.480
and you know we're gonna continue to
improve, but kudos to the defense.

843
00:56:09.679 --> 00:56:14.679
Unbelievable performance. Really proud of these
guys. Really, what a relief

844
00:56:14.800 --> 00:56:16.719
to get a win, even up
our record to five hundred going into a

845
00:56:16.760 --> 00:56:20.159
week off, no question. What
does it mean to go into the buy

846
00:56:20.239 --> 00:56:22.599
at five hundred. I means I
can go to my dad's game a little

847
00:56:22.639 --> 00:56:27.599
bit happier. Yeah, enjoyed the
BUYE We thank you, Joe Knights,

848
00:56:28.039 --> 00:56:31.280
Ted Carris, the Man Ted Carris. After the game, let's go,

849
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:37.880
let's go run game or early they
fed Joe and got relatively good results with

850
00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:42.199
a couple of four yard runs on
the opening drive, But as a whole

851
00:56:42.239 --> 00:56:45.960
big picture that the running game just
never really got got intract and go on.

852
00:56:46.079 --> 00:56:50.280
Yesterday, it didn't. The longest
rush of the day and the running

853
00:56:50.280 --> 00:56:54.519
game was five yards. Joe Burrow
did it on a scramble and Joe Mixon

854
00:56:54.599 --> 00:57:01.000
did it one time. So fifteen
carries forty six yards a long run of

855
00:57:01.159 --> 00:57:07.079
five yards. It's not a whole
lot of production. Three point one yards

856
00:57:07.199 --> 00:57:13.599
per Fortunately, the Bengals defense contained
the Seattle Seahawks run game as equally as

857
00:57:13.639 --> 00:57:17.000
well, at three point five per
twenty five rushers for eighty seven yards.

858
00:57:19.199 --> 00:57:22.800
Yeah, it's Orlando Brown, by
the way, since we're talking about the

859
00:57:22.840 --> 00:57:25.159
guys up front. He did reaggravated
a groin issue. He was on the

860
00:57:25.239 --> 00:57:30.480
injury report. He practiced through it, but he was on the injury report

861
00:57:30.519 --> 00:57:34.079
and he was limited a couple of
times two three weeks ago with the groin

862
00:57:34.320 --> 00:57:39.679
and that got reaggravated. Talked to
him after the game. He feels like

863
00:57:39.920 --> 00:57:43.719
with the bye week, it's not
going to be a problem. He should

864
00:57:43.760 --> 00:57:45.639
be fine. I want to give
Cody Ford a patt in the back.

865
00:57:45.719 --> 00:57:52.239
Cody Ford came in there at the
left tackle position seventeen, operated very well,

866
00:57:52.800 --> 00:57:55.280
and you know he was a higher
draft pick than Orlando Brown coming out

867
00:57:55.280 --> 00:58:00.280
of Oklahoma. Cody Ford was a
second round pick. Orlando Brown was a

868
00:58:00.320 --> 00:58:05.760
third round pick. There were teammates
at Oklahoma, so Cody Ford he can

869
00:58:05.840 --> 00:58:08.840
play, and he's getting an opportunity
to show what he can do here,

870
00:58:08.960 --> 00:58:14.559
and Frank Pollock's bringing him along and
he came off the off the bench and

871
00:58:14.800 --> 00:58:17.519
acquitted himself pretty darn well. They've
They're averaging three and a half yards per

872
00:58:17.639 --> 00:58:22.239
carry on a bye week where there
will be self scouting done. Is is

873
00:58:22.480 --> 00:58:27.119
the key to unlocking the running game
on the scale? Is it more of

874
00:58:27.239 --> 00:58:30.719
a tweak or more of an overhaul
on the opposite end of what has to

875
00:58:31.159 --> 00:58:35.360
unlock this this running game for this
team? Yeah, I know, I

876
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:38.920
know, darn. I'm not sure
if it was the bye week or it

877
00:58:39.119 --> 00:58:45.239
was shortly before shortly after they went
from inside outside zone to a gap team.

878
00:58:45.440 --> 00:58:51.920
I mean they totally overhauled, totally
changed their thought process and running the

879
00:58:51.960 --> 00:58:55.199
football. I think what you have
to do is sit down during the by

880
00:58:55.320 --> 00:59:00.800
and look at the personnel, look
at the physical attributes to the offensive line

881
00:59:00.840 --> 00:59:06.400
personnel, and proceed accordingly. You
know, you try to do that even

882
00:59:06.480 --> 00:59:08.119
on a week to week basis.
But now that you have a buy in

883
00:59:08.320 --> 00:59:12.280
a little bit more time, it'll
be interesting to see what they do come

884
00:59:12.360 --> 00:59:15.880
up with if there is going to
be a tweak in what they do from

885
00:59:16.320 --> 00:59:22.360
a structure standpoint, in the form
of attacking the defense. Like I said,

886
00:59:22.840 --> 00:59:27.599
outside zone inside outside zone is totally
different than gap. You know,

887
00:59:27.760 --> 00:59:31.760
gap is blocked down, pin pull, counter, misdirection, all those kind

888
00:59:31.800 --> 00:59:37.719
of things. That's what they That's
what they went to and Seattle runs a

889
00:59:37.760 --> 00:59:40.159
combination of both. They'll go outside
zone, they'll get your flow, and

890
00:59:40.199 --> 00:59:45.280
then they'll come back and run counters. That's a perfect world. The San

891
00:59:45.280 --> 00:59:51.480
Francisco forty nine ers have a very
diverse running game. They do almost anything

892
00:59:51.519 --> 00:59:55.719
and everything you can think of.
Maybe the Bengals add to it and keep

893
00:59:55.800 --> 01:00:01.679
some of what they're doing as a
foundational starting point and add wrinkles to it.

894
01:00:02.360 --> 01:00:07.559
Who knows, maybe they just just
turn the whole thing upside down and

895
01:00:07.719 --> 01:00:09.360
rebuild it. We'll see what see
what they come up with. During the

896
01:00:09.400 --> 01:00:14.639
buy Boy in the moment yesterday,
they kind of typified their struggles. I

897
01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:16.960
want to say, they went to
seven off third and one, went to

898
01:00:17.039 --> 01:00:22.360
seven offensive max shirping I think was
it, and got stopped stoned on third

899
01:00:22.400 --> 01:00:25.960
and one, and that's happened.
That's happened more than once. That's happened

900
01:00:27.000 --> 01:00:30.880
in the red zone third and one
fourth and one. Yep, at just

901
01:00:30.079 --> 01:00:35.559
very very last game, third and
one fourth and one, you know,

902
01:00:35.719 --> 01:00:40.760
not not able to punch it in. So those those things all have to

903
01:00:40.800 --> 01:00:46.679
be evaluated looked at. Are we
asking our personnel to do things that they

904
01:00:46.800 --> 01:00:52.760
can't do? Is the personnel not
doing what they're supposed to do? Why

905
01:00:52.960 --> 01:00:55.679
is why is it breaking down at
critical times? All that, all that

906
01:00:57.159 --> 01:01:00.639
self scouting thing has to be addressed. We touched a little bit on it

907
01:01:00.880 --> 01:01:04.000
in the first hour. If we
could circle back quickly before this segment's done.

908
01:01:04.119 --> 01:01:07.360
Joe was not sacked in the first
half. He was sacked three times

909
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:09.320
in the second half, and we
started to touch on a little bit on

910
01:01:09.400 --> 01:01:13.360
what Seattle was doing differently in the
in the second half. How did they

911
01:01:13.480 --> 01:01:15.599
get the press in the second half
more so than the first. Well,

912
01:01:15.639 --> 01:01:19.320
I think part of it is Joe. A lot of times you have to

913
01:01:19.360 --> 01:01:22.360
look at every sack. Is Joe
getting out of pocket? Is the third

914
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:25.760
down field position? Is he holding
onto the football a little bit longer?

915
01:01:27.159 --> 01:01:29.480
And if you take a sack,
it's not that big a deal, you

916
01:01:29.559 --> 01:01:32.480
know, McPherson can still you know, drive a drive a you know,

917
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:37.400
a field goal through and all of
those kind of things. You know.

918
01:01:37.599 --> 01:01:44.119
I do think that they they made
some some I thought significant tweaks, and

919
01:01:45.519 --> 01:01:49.760
I guess others don't think they were
significant. It's just I was asking people

920
01:01:49.800 --> 01:01:53.239
after the game. Did they change
things or was just a lack of execution

921
01:01:53.440 --> 01:01:58.480
on on the Bengals side of it
offensive or is it a combination of both?

922
01:01:58.920 --> 01:02:01.880
And I guess from answers that I
yet gotten didn't get it was probably

923
01:02:01.920 --> 01:02:06.960
a combination of both. But they
did change some things, and there's no

924
01:02:07.119 --> 01:02:10.840
question about it. They tightened coverage
big time, whether it was tightening up

925
01:02:10.880 --> 01:02:15.599
the zone, not giving as much
cushion at the line of scrimmage, whatever

926
01:02:15.679 --> 01:02:19.480
the case may have been. They
did change some things because all of a

927
01:02:19.519 --> 01:02:23.320
sudden, man, there wasn't a
whole lot of opportunity down the football field.

928
01:02:23.320 --> 01:02:28.840
There was some suffocation going on on
route combinations. Still ahead a little

929
01:02:28.840 --> 01:02:31.039
bit more on the offensive side of
things. From a wide receiver standpoint,

930
01:02:31.039 --> 01:02:35.119
we're here from Yoshi. As we
continue, it's a Bengals lot in the

931
01:02:35.159 --> 01:02:42.519
first Star Logistics Bengals radio network in
seven hundred WLW. They we're back on

932
01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:45.440
Bengals lot on this Monday evening.
We do it each week on the first

933

Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network and seven
hundred WLW Lance Pacallister along with Dave Leppham.

934
01:02:51.480 --> 01:02:53.480

football game this past weekend? You

937
01:03:02.440 --> 01:03:07.159
Let's talk about the man who had
his first career touchdown catch and did

938
01:03:07.199 --> 01:03:13.360
it on his birthday. Here's Dan
Horde with Andrey yosebas Andre Yosibash caught his

939
01:03:13.519 --> 01:03:16.079
first NFL touchdown pass at least in
the regular season. I remember when you

940
01:03:16.159 --> 01:03:20.239
caught one in the preseason. He
said, this one doesn't count till it's

941
01:03:20.320 --> 01:03:22.679
regular season. How did that feel
today? Yeah? I thought awesome.

942
01:03:22.719 --> 01:03:23.480
You know, at first, I
didn't know if it was going to stand

943
01:03:23.559 --> 01:03:27.960
or not because as they threw a
flag, but you know, they they

944
01:03:28.239 --> 01:03:30.000
said it was a touchdown, and
I almost I mean I started to tear

945
01:03:30.039 --> 01:03:32.360
a little tear up a little bit
once I once I started after I was

946
01:03:32.360 --> 01:03:36.440
done dazzing with teeth, but it
was it was a great time. You

947
01:03:36.480 --> 01:03:37.360
know, it's a scramble drill.
You know, you're working that a lot,

948
01:03:37.440 --> 01:03:40.400
especially you know Joe Burrow, he
can extend plays a bunch, so

949
01:03:40.480 --> 01:03:43.800
he's always got to be ready.
And he was actually nice enough to get

950
01:03:43.840 --> 01:03:45.400
me the ball after, you know, because I completely forgot about it.

951
01:03:45.480 --> 01:03:47.320
But you know, that's the kind
of guy. He is, super thoughtful,

952
01:03:47.400 --> 01:03:50.599
so I was just really appreciative of
that. Yeah, he made a

953
01:03:50.719 --> 01:03:52.719
mad dash into the end zone to
make sure that that ball is recovering.

954
01:03:52.880 --> 01:03:57.360
Yeah, yeah, he did,
and then I honestly completely forgot about it,

955
01:03:57.360 --> 01:03:59.280
and then he came up to me
with the ball, and so he

956
01:03:59.440 --> 01:04:01.000
just shows you know how health awful
he is. So, as you mentioned,

957
01:04:01.039 --> 01:04:05.440
he extended the play from your perspective, When do you realize, all

958
01:04:05.519 --> 01:04:09.960
right, he's buying time. I've
got to do something to get over Yeah,

959
01:04:09.960 --> 01:04:12.280
I mean, you look at him. You know, my route took

960
01:04:12.280 --> 01:04:14.559
a little bit longer than it would
have taken in the first place, so

961
01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:16.239
I already knew that there's a possibility
of being a scrambled I look at him,

962
01:04:16.239 --> 01:04:19.119
and he's already out of the pocket, So I tried to just find

963
01:04:19.159 --> 01:04:21.440
a hole, and you know,
at that point you're just kind of you're

964
01:04:21.480 --> 01:04:25.239
just looking to see where something's open, and you know, lucky enough to

965
01:04:25.320 --> 01:04:27.719
just put it right on me and
I was able to score. He wasn't

966
01:04:27.760 --> 01:04:30.320
able to do that much in the
first four games because of his calf.

967
01:04:30.400 --> 01:04:32.119
We've seen a lot of it now
in the last two weeks. How important

968
01:04:32.159 --> 01:04:35.840
is that specifically in the red zone. Yeah, it's super important because you

969
01:04:35.920 --> 01:04:39.519
know there's social short field to work
with, especially when you're in the red

970
01:04:39.599 --> 01:04:42.440
zone that you know sometimes plays needs
a big extend and you know you need

971
01:04:42.519 --> 01:04:46.000
the extra factor for it to work
because you're so confined. So it braks

972
01:04:46.039 --> 01:04:48.760
a different dimension to the offense for
sure. Let's talk about the defense for

973
01:04:48.840 --> 01:04:53.360
a moment. Four times in the
second half Seattle had it in the low

974
01:04:53.440 --> 01:04:56.920
red zone and got one field goal. As you're watching that, how nerve

975
01:04:56.960 --> 01:04:59.679
wracking is it? What's going through
your mind? Yeah? I mean it

976
01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:03.000
I get nervous a little bit.
But there's something about that defense that you

977
01:05:03.079 --> 01:05:04.960
know they're gonna pull something out,
you know what I mean, Like you

978
01:05:05.000 --> 01:05:08.760
always know they're all dogs in that
defense. They're all ready to make a

979
01:05:08.840 --> 01:05:13.119
play, and so ye're I'm nervous, but I'm also confident at the same

980
01:05:13.199 --> 01:05:15.880
time. So it's like a weird
feeling that I don't want to know how

981
01:05:15.920 --> 01:05:18.480
to explain. Yeah, the crowd
was into it. The place was rocking.

982
01:05:18.599 --> 01:05:23.039
It was pretty remarkable when the defense
kept making stop after stop. I

983
01:05:23.079 --> 01:05:25.360
mean it was incredible. I mean, you know, they put us on

984
01:05:25.400 --> 01:05:29.000
their back, and it's just nice
to see that we have the defense to

985
01:05:29.159 --> 01:05:31.719
rely on, especially if you know
the offense is down or something that something

986
01:05:31.800 --> 01:05:35.159
else happens. And I love those
guys making all those plays. Congrats on

987
01:05:35.239 --> 01:05:39.079
the TV. Glad you got the
ball. Congrats on the win as well.

988
01:05:39.159 --> 01:05:44.119
Thank you appreciate the birthday boy,
Andre Yosebash the touchdown and we referenced

989
01:05:44.159 --> 01:05:48.559
it earlier. The awareness of Joe, the little things from QB one and

990
01:05:49.280 --> 01:05:53.400
he made a bline to get it
in the football and get and you talk

991
01:05:53.480 --> 01:05:57.199
back to back weeks and and Joe
is the one who connects with Kwame Lassiter

992
01:05:57.280 --> 01:06:00.320
for his first catch last week in
Arizona. He goes after the football this

993
01:06:00.440 --> 01:06:04.519
week for Andre that may be a
little thing from the outside looking in,

994
01:06:04.679 --> 01:06:09.639
but I would imagine it's a much
bigger thing inside for the guys that Joe

995
01:06:09.719 --> 01:06:12.960
deals with, no question, and
he b lined for that football. I

996
01:06:13.000 --> 01:06:15.920
mean, it was like he wanted
to make sure that thing was not lost

997
01:06:15.960 --> 01:06:20.440
in the shuffle. And Yosi Vash's
birthday, Cam Taylor BRIT's birthday as well,

998
01:06:20.960 --> 01:06:27.000
and those two guys made huge plays. I mean, the interception by

999
01:06:27.039 --> 01:06:30.840
Cam Taylor Britt and returned twenty four
yards for the field goal, fifty two

1000
01:06:30.920 --> 01:06:34.599
yard field goal that extended the lead
from a point to four points the final

1001
01:06:34.679 --> 01:06:40.199
that was the final points of the
game massive, and then Yosie Vash's touchdown

1002
01:06:40.360 --> 01:06:44.960
is is massive as well. So
yeah, birthdays are a big thing.

1003
01:06:45.119 --> 01:06:48.079
I guess the other thing we were
trying to take credit because it's like,

1004
01:06:48.239 --> 01:06:51.760
you know, Trenton Irwin showed up
on our show during the weekend. He

1005
01:06:51.840 --> 01:06:56.519
had a big he had a career
high eight catches for sixty yards, you

1006
01:06:56.559 --> 01:06:59.519
know, and then you got Cam
Taylor Britt showing up and he has a

1007
01:06:59.559 --> 01:07:02.239
big in So we're trying to sell
the fact that if you come on our

1008
01:07:02.360 --> 01:07:05.920
radio shows during the week you're gonna
have a big performance on Sunday, you

1009
01:07:06.000 --> 01:07:10.880
know. I loved in a touchdown
catch and he initially got hit and kind

1010
01:07:10.880 --> 01:07:13.599
of re routed, but he fought
his way through and along the back line

1011
01:07:13.639 --> 01:07:18.039
as Joe extended to play, and
he does even last week in his footwork.

1012
01:07:18.800 --> 01:07:20.840
I got a feeling day. For
years to come, We're going to

1013
01:07:20.880 --> 01:07:25.559
reference a lot. How did that
guy last until pick two oh six of

1014
01:07:25.639 --> 01:07:30.079
the sixth round, because I just
I get excited watching the little glimpses,

1015
01:07:30.400 --> 01:07:33.039
glimpses we've seen of him for what
it may mean down the road. Yeah,

1016
01:07:33.159 --> 01:07:36.719
I mean, you're talking about an
Olympic athlete. There's no questioning.

1017
01:07:38.360 --> 01:07:44.320
His skill set checks a lot of
boxes, and then he's got the mental

1018
01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:51.800
capacity not just academically being a Princeton
graduate, but football IQ and sometimes they're

1019
01:07:51.840 --> 01:08:00.760
totally different. I had teammates and
friends from Ivy League schools that football IQ

1020
01:08:00.039 --> 01:08:08.320
and they have a great IQ overall, but football IQ and others great IQ

1021
01:08:08.519 --> 01:08:12.519
and great football IQ and some guys. You know, it's it's all and

1022
01:08:12.559 --> 01:08:15.039
everything in between. Fortunately Andre has
it all. He has it all.

1023
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:18.600
He's he's definitely blessed and I think
he's going to be a big, big

1024
01:08:18.680 --> 01:08:21.000
contributor to this football team for a
lot of years to come, and I

1025
01:08:21.079 --> 01:08:23.800
agree with you, Lance, and
the rest of the league is going to

1026
01:08:23.840 --> 01:08:28.800
say, man, how did we
not have him rated higher coming out of

1027
01:08:28.880 --> 01:08:31.359
college? Data stretch will go final
segment of our second hour. Then we'll

1036
01:09:05.680 --> 01:09:11.159
a lot, but it bears repeating
because it's never as easy as Evan Macpherson

1037
01:09:11.199 --> 01:09:14.640
makes it look, or as easy
as the NFL make it look in this

1038
01:09:14.800 --> 01:09:17.199
day and age. But fifty two
yarder with fourteen oh six left in the

1039
01:09:17.279 --> 01:09:21.720
game that made it seventeen thirteen.
I want to say he is now seventeen

1040
01:09:21.840 --> 01:09:28.279
for twenty one in his career from
fifty yards or beyond. And to think

1041
01:09:28.359 --> 01:09:32.279
of that percentage and how far the
game has come in terms of kickers.

1042
01:09:32.279 --> 01:09:34.960
But that was a huge kick and
you you made a great point earlier.

1043
01:09:36.039 --> 01:09:40.760
That was coupled. That sequence was
coupled with the Cam Taylor britt not just

1044
01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:44.680
interception, but the return of the
interception right, which led to the led

1045
01:09:44.720 --> 01:09:46.479
to the field goal. Yeah,
no doubt about it. And he's three

1046
01:09:46.600 --> 01:09:50.560
for five this year from fifty and
beyond, I mean five attempts. They

1047
01:09:50.640 --> 01:09:55.359
got all the confidence in the world
and him hitting it. He missed from

1048
01:09:55.439 --> 01:09:59.079
fifty one, he missed from fifty
six. He's been good from fifty three,

1049
01:09:59.239 --> 01:10:03.760
good from fifty four and good from
fifty two. So he the operation

1050
01:10:04.560 --> 01:10:10.279
is extraordinary. And just ask the
San Francisco forty nine is how important all

1051
01:10:10.359 --> 01:10:13.920
the place kicker? It's a forty
two yard is pushed, right, I

1052
01:10:14.000 --> 01:10:17.920
mean that's an extra point basically from
McPherson. I mean, kickers are are

1053
01:10:18.279 --> 01:10:24.319
extremely valuable, but the range of
the kickers is phenomenal to watch. Where

1054
01:10:24.359 --> 01:10:28.199
these guys warm ups now, I
mean back, guys, are you hitting

1055
01:10:28.279 --> 01:10:31.600
sixty five yarders. I'm watching them
spot the ball at the other forty five

1056
01:10:31.720 --> 01:10:36.000
yard line and drilling it the entire
length of the field through the uprights.

1057
01:10:36.039 --> 01:10:41.800
It's like, that's unbelievable, just
amazing. We've put this hour in the

1058
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:45.760

unfold. Hang tight, because Brian Callahan

1069
01:11:39.560 --> 01:11:45.520
Welcome in our special guest to kick
off this hour. This hour special guest

1070
01:11:45.800 --> 01:11:51.760
is offensive coordinator Extraordinary for the Cincinnati
Bengals. I probably at birth, he

1071
01:11:51.880 --> 01:11:56.479
was probably born with the football under
his arm. There's probably no question about

1072
01:11:56.479 --> 01:12:01.560
that. And knowing as dad a
little bit Callahan, Uh, football is

1073
01:12:01.640 --> 01:12:03.880
his life and he does a hell
of a job about it, and we

1074
01:12:03.960 --> 01:12:10.520
appreciated him visiting with us a special
guest on a weekly basis. Thanks for

1075
01:12:10.560 --> 01:12:14.600
having me, Yes, sir,
first two drives, boom boom down the

1076
01:12:14.640 --> 01:12:16.520
field and things are clicking. Had
you had to feel good right out of

1077
01:12:16.560 --> 01:12:18.920
the shoot the way things that were
unfolding. Yeah, I thought it was

1078
01:12:18.960 --> 01:12:24.000
gonna be one of those vintage Joe
Burrow games. Is how it started.

1079
01:12:24.039 --> 01:12:28.079
You know, we we super efficient
early. He was accurate, we were

1080
01:12:28.159 --> 01:12:30.600
hitting plays, we were making plays
when we needed to, and we end

1081
01:12:30.720 --> 01:12:33.600
up you know, with two touchdowns, we got fourteen points, were out

1082
01:12:33.600 --> 01:12:39.000
the gate, and and then I
thought we were going to open it up

1083
01:12:39.279 --> 01:12:43.680
and then and then we didn't.
So that second half was frustrating, but

1084
01:12:43.760 --> 01:12:47.279
the first half was a little glimpse
of of what we're capable of, and

1085
01:12:47.479 --> 01:12:50.279
we just got to find ways to
be better through the course of four quarters

1086
01:12:50.760 --> 01:12:53.920
really than we've been all year.
You know. We we've had spurts of

1087
01:12:54.000 --> 01:12:58.720
really good play and but we need
more consistency. They play zone like eighty

1088
01:12:59.319 --> 01:13:01.000
of the time in Man eighteen.
It looked like they played a little bit

1089
01:13:01.079 --> 01:13:05.279
more man and and and blitzed a
little bit more than than than they do

1090
01:13:05.439 --> 01:13:10.359
normally in the second and half.
Did they change anything other than that or

1091
01:13:10.439 --> 01:13:14.199
no execution? They played pretty much
how they how they show to play.

1092
01:13:14.760 --> 01:13:17.520
They they have a system and an
and an identity, and they played pretty

1093
01:13:17.520 --> 01:13:23.960
close to that. They do a
good job picking their spots to pressure their

1094
01:13:24.159 --> 01:13:27.800
their front moves quite a bit in
the run game, and they did a

1095
01:13:27.840 --> 01:13:30.960
little bit of that, which which
we were expecting. They mix in some

1096
01:13:31.159 --> 01:13:34.880
man coverage, you know, just
to keep you on your toes, and

1097
01:13:34.960 --> 01:13:38.840
they should with the personnel they have. And those two corners are really good

1098
01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:44.039
players, you know they they Jamal
Adams hadn't played much for him, Yeah,

1099
01:13:44.279 --> 01:13:46.199
uh he was. They activated him
a few times as as a blitzer

1100
01:13:46.319 --> 01:13:49.199
and he does a good job.
He's a good player. But yeah,

1101
01:13:49.199 --> 01:13:54.399
they stayed pretty true to who they
were, and we just didn't make enough

1102
01:13:54.600 --> 01:13:57.920
enough of the plays down the stretch
to you know, we needed ultimately probably

1103
01:13:57.920 --> 01:14:00.600
needed one more touchdown in there somewhere
and make it twenty one points and give

1104
01:14:00.640 --> 01:14:03.960
our defense a little bit of breathing
room, and we failed to do that,

1105
01:14:04.119 --> 01:14:09.640
unfortunately, and we put them you
know twice. Really the two minute

1106
01:14:09.720 --> 01:14:12.720
drill at the end of the half
gave him the ball with time and then

1107
01:14:12.880 --> 01:14:15.760
you know, our four minute got
the ball at an awkward time with two

1108
01:14:15.840 --> 01:14:19.439
oh three, so we tried to
throw one and then didn't run enough time

1109
01:14:19.520 --> 01:14:21.880
off and gave him the ball back
with a chance to go win the game.

1110
01:14:21.920 --> 01:14:27.720
And that's disappointing in that spot to
not be able to close the game

1111
01:14:27.760 --> 01:14:30.359
with the ball in our hands and
right and put our defense back out there

1112
01:14:30.359 --> 01:14:33.720
if they already had made a pretty
incredible stand on the drive previous. So

1113
01:14:34.359 --> 01:14:38.880
disappointed that we couldn't finish the game
that way. Boy Joe was distributing like

1114
01:14:38.920 --> 01:14:41.560
a point guard, especially in the
first half. He hit six different guys

1115
01:14:41.560 --> 01:14:44.359
on the first drive. He hit
nine different guys for the game. Yeah,

1116
01:14:44.520 --> 01:14:48.000
he's he is never going to force
the ball, and he's he's very

1117
01:14:49.720 --> 01:14:55.359
detailed in his preparation detailed with how
he progresses and within the past game,

1118
01:14:55.439 --> 01:14:59.479
and he's gonna throw it to the
open player and as much as that whatever

1119
01:14:59.520 --> 01:15:01.760
that requires that week, he's willing
to do. So that's the good part

1120
01:15:01.800 --> 01:15:04.880
about Joe, That's what makes him
special is is he's not afraid and he

1121
01:15:05.000 --> 01:15:09.319
trusts everybody on the offense to make
the make the play when the ball comes

1122
01:15:09.359 --> 01:15:13.439
their way. And that's how you
want a quarterback to play. And he

1123
01:15:13.520 --> 01:15:15.600
took on the role of ball stewart, you know, for Yosi Lash After

1124
01:15:15.680 --> 01:15:20.039
he scored that first NFL touchdown,
he dropped the ball to celebrate with his

1125
01:15:20.119 --> 01:15:25.000
teammates and Joe right over there get
it, and I think he might want

1126
01:15:25.079 --> 01:15:28.439
this, this be something that could
go in the trophy case. That's great

1127
01:15:28.479 --> 01:15:30.800
awareness by Joe. That just go
I mean, he he loves the guys

1128
01:15:30.840 --> 01:15:34.760
he plays with and to have that
that meant something to Joe. For for

1129
01:15:34.920 --> 01:15:38.199
yosh to have that first touchdown of
his career, and I think he got

1130
01:15:38.239 --> 01:15:40.800
a little bit screwed up because the
flag went down and he no one really

1131
01:15:40.880 --> 01:15:43.720
knew who was on We could quite
figure it out. And in the moment

1132
01:15:43.840 --> 01:15:47.000
he you know, he was more
worried about the catch probably getting nullified as

1133
01:15:47.000 --> 01:15:50.520
opposed to being a touchdown. So
yeah, that's great. Joe's a phenomenal

1134
01:15:50.560 --> 01:15:54.159
teammate. I mean, you you
know how our guys feel about him here.

1135
01:15:54.199 --> 01:15:57.640
But that's just one example of how
he you know, he makes sure

1136
01:15:57.680 --> 01:16:00.199
guys are are taking care of and
appreciated, and he does it plays his

1137
01:16:00.319 --> 01:16:03.119
role as the you know, face
of the face of the offense, in

1138
01:16:03.159 --> 01:16:06.640
the face of the franchise. And
on that play, Andre kind of is

1139
01:16:06.760 --> 01:16:11.640
Joe extends to play and roles.
Andre kind of follows him along the back

1140
01:16:11.680 --> 01:16:15.520
to make himself available. Yeah,
it was a great, great scramble drill.

1141
01:16:15.640 --> 01:16:20.640
The ball was designed to go to
to Andre on a on a he

1142
01:16:20.760 --> 01:16:24.720
ends up kind of open late,
but he gets ping pong around the release

1143
01:16:24.840 --> 01:16:27.560
that you know, Jamal Adams puts
his hands all over him ultimately is what

1144
01:16:27.800 --> 01:16:31.800
got the penalty. But just great
execution in in a red zone scrambled drill,

1145
01:16:31.840 --> 01:16:35.199
which is really you know, I've
said it before, that's how you

1146
01:16:35.199 --> 01:16:39.520
score touchdowns in the red zone.
Right is very rarely our guys open on

1147
01:16:39.560 --> 01:16:44.479
the primary just because it's so tight
and the coverages are so you know,

1148
01:16:44.560 --> 01:16:46.800
they're so good at playing coverages down
there that that's how you win. And

1149
01:16:46.920 --> 01:16:51.840
that was unbelievable. He came back
speed with with conviction and and Joe was

1150
01:16:53.039 --> 01:16:55.119
just waiting for him to separate,
and he was right there for him.

1151
01:16:55.119 --> 01:16:59.159
It was a great play on the
flip side. With the defense doing so

1152
01:16:59.319 --> 01:17:03.439
well in thess field having the goal
line stands as such, Gino was holding

1153
01:17:03.479 --> 01:17:06.239
that ball, holding that ball,
you know, in the pocket, holding

1154
01:17:06.239 --> 01:17:10.840
the ball, holding the ball,
and it was a stark contrast, you

1155
01:17:10.920 --> 01:17:15.399
know, to what man Field's compressed. They took away the first play,

1156
01:17:15.439 --> 01:17:17.560
you're gonna have to create an extend
the second play, and guys did that

1157
01:17:17.760 --> 01:17:21.600
so well and have done it so
well with Joe Burrow, it is it's

1158
01:17:21.840 --> 01:17:25.920
that's that's when the rubber meets the
road, I guess, isn't it.

1159
01:17:26.159 --> 01:17:29.399
That's how That's how players are made. That's how touchdowns they scored. And

1160
01:17:29.479 --> 01:17:30.840
I think obviously the huge difference in
that game is you just look at the

1161
01:17:30.880 --> 01:17:34.600
two red zone possession charts, and
that's gonna be the difference in most games.

1162
01:17:34.640 --> 01:17:36.319
If you go down in the red
zone, you go two for two,

1163
01:17:36.640 --> 01:17:40.079
and they go in the red zone, they go whatever they were one

1164
01:17:40.159 --> 01:17:43.399
for five, ye chances are probably
gonna probably gonna have a chance to win

1165
01:17:43.439 --> 01:17:45.000
that game. So I would have
liked to have gotten down there one more

1166
01:17:45.000 --> 01:17:47.840
time. I think we would have
scored again, but we just we didn't

1167
01:17:47.840 --> 01:17:50.680
do a good enough job getting back
into the red zone to get another touchdown

1168
01:17:50.680 --> 01:17:54.920
on the board. That was the
thing going into the game. They'd only

1169
01:17:55.000 --> 01:17:58.239
let the people opponent in the red
zone eight times, which was second fewest

1170
01:17:58.279 --> 01:18:00.399
in the league. But they've been
scored seven touchdowns, nose eight possessions.

1171
01:18:00.520 --> 01:18:04.600
You guys go to they've given up
nine touchdowns and ten red zone possessions.

1172
01:18:05.119 --> 01:18:09.199
Where's the leak or where's the hole
in their red zone philosophy? Do you

1173
01:18:09.279 --> 01:18:11.600
think? You know, it's hard
to say. I mean both of our

1174
01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:15.039
both of our plays that you know, the touchdown a TV, we were

1175
01:18:15.079 --> 01:18:18.680
we were hot. They had brought
a pressure opposite where we were sending and

1176
01:18:18.760 --> 01:18:21.479
sending the line and Joe knew it
and stood in there. I had to

1177
01:18:21.520 --> 01:18:24.399
throw quick took a little bit of
a hit, not a big one,

1178
01:18:24.479 --> 01:18:29.159
but really good execution by him and
TV getting open. You know, they

1179
01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:30.720
they got a decent system down there, and I think they do a good

1180
01:18:30.800 --> 01:18:34.000
job. It's just they've just given
up, you know, really more probably

1181
01:18:34.119 --> 01:18:38.079
run stuff for a team that's as
good as against the run they've gotten.

1182
01:18:38.279 --> 01:18:40.680
The ball has been running on them
a few times more than I'm sure they

1183
01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:44.359
would like. But you know,
I felt really good about our red zone

1184
01:18:44.399 --> 01:18:45.880
plan. I wish we had a
chance to throw a few more. Yeah,

1185
01:18:46.359 --> 01:18:49.359
all things considered, everything you've been
through, how does three and three

1186
01:18:49.399 --> 01:18:53.319
feel at the buy? As good
as we could do? You know,

1187
01:18:53.520 --> 01:18:56.520
it's that's where we are. We're
three and three. We we've caught our

1188
01:18:56.560 --> 01:18:59.640
way back from a from a tough
start. It's a credit to the to

1189
01:18:59.680 --> 01:19:02.359
the plays and their resiliency and and
their belief and in each other and and

1190
01:19:02.760 --> 01:19:05.479
that we can we can pull out
of a hole. And I'd like to

1191
01:19:05.560 --> 01:19:09.239
not be in a hole, but
we we are who we are, and

1192
01:19:09.359 --> 01:19:12.119
and that's how we started the season, and we found our way to three

1193
01:19:12.119 --> 01:19:15.680
and three at the Buy, which
again, given the games that we had

1194
01:19:15.720 --> 01:19:16.800
to play and where the buye fel
is as good as we can do.

1195
01:19:17.840 --> 01:19:20.479
And and that's a great feeling,
you know, to be it feels like

1196
01:19:20.560 --> 01:19:24.479
the whole league is is three and
three. You know, it's there's a

1197
01:19:24.520 --> 01:19:26.640
couple of teams that have done well, but really for the most part,

1198
01:19:26.680 --> 01:19:29.600
particularly the AFC, it's gonna be
a tight it's gonna be a tight race,

1199
01:19:30.079 --> 01:19:33.000
and and every week is gonna matter, and it's it's gonna be We're

1200
01:19:33.000 --> 01:19:36.319
gonna have ups and downs and every
team is. And we got some big

1201
01:19:36.399 --> 01:19:41.600
divisional games coming down stretch here that
that are gonna be really really important for

1202
01:19:41.760 --> 01:19:44.279
us. And and we got to
find a way to play better on offense

1203
01:19:44.319 --> 01:19:47.199
than we have. And yeah,
it's it's gonna be a it's gonna be

1204
01:19:47.560 --> 01:19:53.279
this This November and December is gonna
be is going to be a huge part

1205
01:19:53.279 --> 01:19:55.680
of our season. And we've always
church only played well during that time.

1206
01:19:56.159 --> 01:20:00.880
There's a there's been some some taste
of compland or football. They go on

1207
01:20:00.960 --> 01:20:03.399
to the drive, score, you
guys, come right back and score,

1208
01:20:03.760 --> 01:20:08.840
tie the football game. Joe has
an interception, Mike Hilton has one.

1209
01:20:08.920 --> 01:20:11.279
I got your back, Joe,
you know, I mean, there's complementary

1210
01:20:11.359 --> 01:20:15.640
things going on from phase to phase
offense defense, even within the phase,

1211
01:20:15.720 --> 01:20:20.520
you know, complementary reactions happening.
But when this football team puts together offense

1212
01:20:20.640 --> 01:20:26.479
defense, special teams all three phases
playing their best in the same game.

1213
01:20:26.600 --> 01:20:29.760
It hasn't come close to happening yet
in your three and three. It's going

1214
01:20:29.840 --> 01:20:31.680
to be something when it happens.
Yeah, and we need it to happen,

1215
01:20:31.880 --> 01:20:35.960
truthfully. We we need to We
need to play better on offense.

1216
01:20:35.960 --> 01:20:40.079
I mean we've we've definitely put our
defense on the field way too much.

1217
01:20:42.159 --> 01:20:45.079
Just put them. We've put them
in some bad spots and they've they've responded

1218
01:20:45.119 --> 01:20:48.199
for the most part and and found
ways to pick us up. And we've

1219
01:20:49.000 --> 01:20:51.680
you know, played well enough in
spurts, but it just it's got to

1220
01:20:51.720 --> 01:20:56.199
be better. And I think that
the complimentary piece, and we played it

1221
01:20:56.239 --> 01:20:59.439
when our team plays together, complimentary
wise, and we do a great job

1222
01:20:59.479 --> 01:21:02.439
with that, whereas as any football
team in in the NFL. And that's

1223
01:21:02.479 --> 01:21:04.479
what we gotta do and if we
want to if we want to get to

1224
01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:08.159
the end result where we think we're
capable of being, and we got to

1225
01:21:08.199 --> 01:21:13.199
do a better job of that.
And it's it's it's the NFL. It's

1226
01:21:13.239 --> 01:21:15.079
gonna go up and down, it's
gonna ebb and flow. Your offense has

1227
01:21:15.119 --> 01:21:17.479
good days, your defense has good
days. I mean asked, I looked

1228
01:21:17.560 --> 01:21:19.760
yesterday, I felt like nobody in
the NFL scored more than twenty points,

1229
01:21:19.760 --> 01:21:21.880
you know, I mean like,
it's just it's hard, man. It's

1230
01:21:21.920 --> 01:21:25.439
a hard it's a hard league,
and teams make you to do a better

1231
01:21:25.520 --> 01:21:29.399
job of earning it on our end
on offense. So shout out to the

1232
01:21:29.439 --> 01:21:31.960
defense though. Man, those guys
played unbelievable. How does the bye week

1233
01:21:32.039 --> 01:21:34.920
look for you? You get anything
fun? Or is it we get a

1234
01:21:34.960 --> 01:21:38.880
little bit of time. I'm gonna, I'm gonna jump, I'll go down

1235
01:21:38.960 --> 01:21:41.600
to We're gonna my wife and is
gonna down the Florida for like two days

1236
01:21:41.600 --> 01:21:44.439
and just change the scenery up and
there you go. Just just take a

1237
01:21:44.560 --> 01:21:46.439
take a breath and and then get
ready for the for the stretch run here

1238
01:21:46.479 --> 01:21:48.880
it's you know, it's an earlier
by then, we've had the last couple

1239
01:21:48.920 --> 01:21:51.920
of years, and so you take
the time when you get it. But

1240
01:21:53.000 --> 01:21:55.680
the next couple of days will be
a pretty good grind on on self scouting

1241
01:21:55.800 --> 01:21:59.640
and getting a jump on San Francisco
and and being being ready for that week.

1242
01:21:59.760 --> 01:22:01.720
So a lot of work ahead the
next few days and then and then

1243
01:22:01.840 --> 01:22:03.600
just a little bit of a deep
breath at the end of the week and

1244
01:22:04.239 --> 01:22:09.119
get ready to roll again. I
know in watching the CBS broadcast this morning,

1245
01:22:09.199 --> 01:22:11.439
they have the camera on you in
the booth. Do you do you

1246
01:22:11.640 --> 01:22:14.960
know when it's on you live?
Is there like a red light or no?

1247
01:22:15.199 --> 01:22:17.920
I don't. I really dislike having
that in there. I really don't.

1248
01:22:18.560 --> 01:22:20.319
And the thing is that I forget
it's there, you know what I

1249
01:22:20.359 --> 01:22:23.760
mean, as the game gets going, I'm not paying attention to it at

1250
01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:26.560
all, even though it's like,
right, it's right on my face.

1251
01:22:27.439 --> 01:22:30.720
And the only time I ever occasionally
know it's on is I have an I

1252
01:22:30.039 --> 01:22:32.239
in our home box. I have
a TV that sits right next to me,

1253
01:22:32.399 --> 01:22:35.720
to my right, and every now
and again it's like I'll like see

1254
01:22:35.800 --> 01:22:40.079
my face in the periphery of the
TV, and so I know that I'm

1255
01:22:40.119 --> 01:22:43.399
on. Yeah, But most of
the time, I mean ninety nine percent

1256
01:22:43.399 --> 01:22:46.680
of the time I have I have
no idea that it's there, And whatever

1257
01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:53.439
reaction they catch is usually usually,
you know, whatever moment they I'm sure

1258
01:22:53.479 --> 01:22:56.319
they I thank god, they probably
got producers up there that say, hey,

1259
01:22:56.319 --> 01:22:59.239
don't put this one on there.
But there's definitely times where it's not

1260
01:22:59.359 --> 01:23:04.079
pretty, and I'm thankful that they
don't get the show too many good stuff.

1261
01:23:04.560 --> 01:23:09.800
Enjoy the bye week? Yes,
well, and we do coverage break,

1262
01:23:09.960 --> 01:23:12.199
Yeah we do. Yeah, we
take a break next week. Yeah,

1263
01:23:13.039 --> 01:23:15.720
yes, yes, good seeing as
always. Yep, let's do this

1264
01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:18.119
again a couple of weeks sounds like
a plant's good. Brian Callahan, everybody

1265
01:23:18.159 --> 01:23:20.880
take a time out of continue.
Much more to get too. It's Bengals

1266
01:23:20.960 --> 01:23:29.279
Line on the first Star Logistics Bengals
Radio Network and seven hundred WLW. Let's

1267
01:23:29.359 --> 01:23:31.039
keep it moving on this Monday night
edition of Bengals Line. We're on the

1268
01:23:31.079 --> 01:23:35.680
first Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network at
seven hundred WLW, Lance McAllister hanging out

1269
01:23:35.680 --> 01:23:40.399
with Dave Lapham, Sir Lance and
Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout the season, save

1270
01:23:40.800 --> 01:23:44.640
five bucks off Mike's car washed top
two washes for all wash that sold on

1271
01:23:44.720 --> 01:23:48.920
Wednesday, Mike's donates one dollar to
the legendary Anthony Munos Foundation. Mike's is

1272
01:23:49.000 --> 01:23:54.079
open daily from seven am to nine
pm. We kicked off the hour talking

1273
01:23:54.119 --> 01:23:58.039
with Brian Callahan about the offense.
Let's spend just a couple more minutes in

1274
01:23:58.159 --> 01:24:01.520
this segment. Zach Taylor from the
podium after the game talking and appreciation of

1275
01:24:01.600 --> 01:24:04.640
the defense. Here's the coach got
a lot of faith in our defense,

1276
01:24:04.840 --> 01:24:06.560
you know, especially when they had
to go out there. We put them

1277
01:24:06.600 --> 01:24:11.840
out there in some tough spots and
to have those four low red stops that

1278
01:24:11.920 --> 01:24:13.880
they had, you know, they
held them to a field goal, to

1279
01:24:14.000 --> 01:24:18.039
turnovers and downs to turnover. Exceptional
job by our defense, and uh,

1280
01:24:18.560 --> 01:24:23.800
they give you a lot of confidence. So it's a stressful situation. Seattle's

1281
01:24:23.800 --> 01:24:26.520
got a great team. They did
a great job hitting some plays moving the

1282
01:24:26.560 --> 01:24:29.079
ball down there. But at the
end of the day, just got tremendous

1283
01:24:29.079 --> 01:24:30.199
confidence that our defense is going to
figure it out, and they did and

1284
01:24:30.479 --> 01:24:33.640
got a huge stop there at the
end. Zach, what can you say

1285
01:24:33.680 --> 01:24:39.159
about Cam Taylor Bates day day on
one of the best receivers. Yeah,

1286
01:24:39.239 --> 01:24:44.760
the NFL And obviously now we've got
a tremendous group of of defenders. First

1287
01:24:44.800 --> 01:24:46.960
of all, our our dbs have
really stepped up, you know, and

1288
01:24:48.239 --> 01:24:51.760
you know, Cheeto has always been
a big force there. Mike Hilton,

1289
01:24:53.520 --> 01:24:56.720
Cam Taylor, Britt has really come
on this last year. Uh, DJ

1290
01:24:56.840 --> 01:25:00.199
Turner's really stood up as well,
and so I'm really proud of can him

1291
01:25:00.199 --> 01:25:01.960
and and you know, he's got
great, great ball skills, tremendous ball

1292
01:25:02.000 --> 01:25:04.039
skills, and so when the ball's
in his area, he's usually got a

1293
01:25:04.079 --> 01:25:06.880
great chance to go get that thing. And so happy that he did.

1294
01:25:08.920 --> 01:25:12.840
What was the difference near the goal
line for your defense today? What do

1295
01:25:12.880 --> 01:25:17.640
you think was the game? You
know, it's it's almost like just because

1296
01:25:17.680 --> 01:25:20.000
the team gets in there at the
three yard line, it's not out here

1297
01:25:20.039 --> 01:25:25.000
we go, it's it's seven points. There was a real I really think

1298
01:25:25.039 --> 01:25:28.720
our defense believes, worst case we're
holding Humber three here, you know,

1299
01:25:28.880 --> 01:25:30.600
in best case, we're getting the
ball out, you know, and that

1300
01:25:30.760 --> 01:25:32.920
that's going back to that New England
game last year. You always feel like

1301
01:25:33.000 --> 01:25:35.800
these guys have such an attitude to
find a way to get that ball out

1302
01:25:35.920 --> 01:25:40.640
and not just be satisfied giving up
any points. It's turnover on downs and

1303
01:25:40.720 --> 01:25:43.000
it's get the ball out. And
I feel that. And it didn't we

1304
01:25:43.079 --> 01:25:45.439
didn't strip it out or anything,
but we tried. I saw a lot

1305
01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:47.079
of good a lot of good plugs
at the ball there and and just really

1306
01:25:47.119 --> 01:25:51.600
proud of the job that our defense
did. They stepped up big time as

1307
01:25:51.720 --> 01:25:56.920
to why offensively, guys weren't.
You know that that's a really good question.

1308
01:25:57.680 --> 01:25:59.520
That's a really good question. You
know what, We'll have to watch

1309
01:25:59.560 --> 01:26:02.399
it and see because you felt like, you felt like we had some opportunities.

1310
01:26:02.399 --> 01:26:04.560
You felt like some times that we
weren't in a great flow. But

1311
01:26:04.680 --> 01:26:06.720
it's it's really hard for me to
put my thumb on it, and I'll

1312
01:26:06.760 --> 01:26:09.920
have to, you know, we'll
have to check it out. And the

1313
01:26:10.000 --> 01:26:13.880
good news is we found a way
to I walked off the field and I

1314
01:26:14.000 --> 01:26:17.000
had, you know, I texted
Steve Speck yesterday, the Saint X coach,

1315
01:26:17.159 --> 01:26:18.800
you know, they had they had
to win on the road, and

1316
01:26:19.279 --> 01:26:21.079
I said, a great job,
and he said, it's better to win

1317
01:26:21.159 --> 01:26:24.880
ugly than lose pretty. And I
mean that was the first thing that hit

1318
01:26:24.960 --> 01:26:27.880
me when I walked up the field
to day was at times it felt ugly,

1319
01:26:28.920 --> 01:26:30.920
especially on offense. But but again
our defense stepped up and made some

1320
01:26:31.000 --> 01:26:35.960
big plays for us that I allowed
us to get out of there. So

1321
01:26:36.119 --> 01:26:39.359
you know, it is it's good. You know, it's like I said,

1322
01:26:39.439 --> 01:26:42.279
we we kind of stubbed our tow
you know, starting this race off,

1323
01:26:43.439 --> 01:26:46.239
and we're gonna continue to pick up
steam. And and again there's days

1324
01:26:46.279 --> 01:26:49.279
where our defense is going to lead
the charge and lead us to victory.

1325
01:26:49.319 --> 01:26:53.199
There's times that the offense is going
to reciprocate that. There's time special team's

1326
01:26:53.199 --> 01:26:55.600
gonna take over. And I think
good teams just find ways to do it.

1327
01:26:56.199 --> 01:26:59.079
And and right now we're at that
three and three mark, going into

1328
01:26:59.079 --> 01:27:01.119
a buy get a chance to get
healthy, and then and then hit the

1329
01:27:01.159 --> 01:27:12.039
surge after the buyer. Starting in
San Francisco. There's I mean the wins

1330
01:27:12.079 --> 01:27:14.479
Ana losses. To be honest with
you, we draw from all of them

1331
01:27:15.039 --> 01:27:18.600
equally. Really, I think,
you know, we've just got a lot

1332
01:27:18.640 --> 01:27:20.800
of confidence as a team that will
figure out a way at the end to

1333
01:27:20.920 --> 01:27:24.920
close it out. And uh,
this was one of those games. We

1334
01:27:25.159 --> 01:27:27.560
had a good lead the whole game, had to lead the whole game,

1335
01:27:27.640 --> 01:27:30.840
and defense was able to close out
for us. Zach on the performance by

1336
01:27:30.880 --> 01:27:33.039
the defense and Dave, I don't
think we can talk about it enough.

1337
01:27:33.279 --> 01:27:38.560
Just I mean, of what they
did in the red zone defensively yesterday,

1338
01:27:38.560 --> 01:27:42.720
I don't think it's an overstatement.
I don't recall another performance that depth.

1339
01:27:42.760 --> 01:27:45.920
I've seen one goal line stand,
maybe two goal line stand but what they

1340
01:27:45.039 --> 01:27:48.119
did in the second half yesterday in
the red zone. That's one of the

1341
01:27:48.159 --> 01:27:51.560
most impressive defensive things you'll ever see. It really is. And when you

1342
01:27:51.640 --> 01:27:58.000
think about how the game started down
the field they go, the Seattle Seahawks

1343
01:27:58.039 --> 01:28:01.680
and they just punch it in from
the lower zone and lou anorumo Is he's

1344
01:28:01.800 --> 01:28:06.079
out on the football field greeting his
defensive players as they come off the field

1345
01:28:06.880 --> 01:28:12.199
in not a very happy manner.
I mean, he was upset with them

1346
01:28:13.359 --> 01:28:15.600
giving up that drive to start the
football game. And that was it.

1347
01:28:16.359 --> 01:28:20.880
That was it was. It was
done from that point in time in terms

1348
01:28:20.920 --> 01:28:27.239
of finding the end zone for the
Seahawks. Five possessions. That's the only

1349
01:28:27.359 --> 01:28:30.119
touchdown and it happened in the first
drive of the game. The other four

1350
01:28:30.199 --> 01:28:36.640
possessions that occurred in the second half
a field goal, two interceptions, no

1351
01:28:38.000 --> 01:28:42.920
an interception and stop on downs twice, a field goal and interception Mike Hilton

1352
01:28:42.960 --> 01:28:46.760
in the end zone and stop on
four downs two different times. Three takeaways

1353
01:28:46.840 --> 01:28:51.760
literally in the low red zone.
Unbelievable, pretty dang impressive. We'll take

1354
01:28:51.800 --> 01:28:55.520
a time out and continue. There's
more to get to. Bengals line on

1355
01:28:55.560 --> 01:29:01.920
the first Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network
and seven hundred WLW Welcome back to Bengals

1356
01:29:02.000 --> 01:29:05.600
line of this Monday night on the
first Star Logistics Bengals Radio Network and seven

1357
01:29:05.680 --> 01:29:10.640
hundred WLW im Lance, but callister, he is Dave Lapham. The Bengals

1358
01:29:10.960 --> 01:29:14.439
now on the buy. The rest
of the AFC North will be in action.

1359
01:29:14.560 --> 01:29:16.159
The Ravens will be home to the
Lions, the Steelers will be at

1360
01:29:16.199 --> 01:29:18.640
the Rams, and the Browns will
be at the Colton. Boy, you

1361
01:29:18.680 --> 01:29:21.760
look at the scrum of the AFC
North right now, Dave. The Ravens

1362
01:29:21.840 --> 01:29:25.880
four and two, the Steelers three
and two, the Browns three and two,

1363
01:29:26.239 --> 01:29:30.840
and the Bengals three and three certainly
in the mix. And it's as

1364
01:29:30.880 --> 01:29:32.279
I said at the start of the
show, three and three never looks so

1365
01:29:32.439 --> 01:29:38.319
good based on where this team once
was and the ominous feel and the uncertainty

1366
01:29:38.359 --> 01:29:42.960
of Joe's calfway back when. Yeah. Absolutely, and that's the good news.

1367
01:29:43.039 --> 01:29:47.239
With the bye week, Joe will
now have two full weeks of healing

1368
01:29:48.079 --> 01:29:54.600
and like they said during practice,
as long as he doesn't retweak it,

1369
01:29:54.800 --> 01:29:59.000
it's going through the healing process.
Because he's doing the rehab work as well.

1370
01:30:00.079 --> 01:30:02.520
You'd have to think that when he
comes back after that bye week,

1371
01:30:03.119 --> 01:30:08.239
going out to San Francisco, He's
going to be very very close to one

1372
01:30:08.279 --> 01:30:11.159
hundred percent. You know, he's
never been one hundred percent. He's going

1373
01:30:11.239 --> 01:30:15.079
to be very very close. And
that's a that's a must I must have

1374
01:30:15.319 --> 01:30:19.800
because, like you said, Cisco, then Buffalo comes to Cincinnati, Houston

1375
01:30:20.079 --> 01:30:25.800
at Baltimore, Pittsburgh at Jacksonville.
Man, that's a that's a run.

1376
01:30:26.159 --> 01:30:30.720
That's a run in Baltimore on Thursday
night, Jacksonville on Monday night, both

1377
01:30:30.760 --> 01:30:32.840
away games. That's gonna be tough. There's gonna be long week, short

1378
01:30:32.880 --> 01:30:36.520
week to deal with travel with both
of them. Traveling out to San Francisco

1379
01:30:38.000 --> 01:30:41.960
will be a you know, a
challenge as well. Uh, it's it's

1380
01:30:42.000 --> 01:30:45.359
going to be a Donnybrook. I
mean, the division race is going to

1381
01:30:45.399 --> 01:30:49.000
come right down to the end in
the last game of the season on January

1382
01:30:49.119 --> 01:30:55.600
seventh, Cleveland Browns in Cincinnati.
There is just not a in the division.

1383
01:30:55.680 --> 01:30:58.159
There's just whether it be the Ravens
or the Steelers of the Browns,

1384
01:30:58.239 --> 01:31:01.000
nobody clearly jumps out in and scares
you. I think they all have issues.

1385
01:31:01.079 --> 01:31:04.680
And the Ravens won yesterday. They
had one touchdown of the kick six

1386
01:31:04.800 --> 01:31:08.880
field goals. Right, the Steelers
have had injury issues. We know the

1387
01:31:09.000 --> 01:31:12.479
injury issue, the uncertainty of Deshaun
Watson with the Browns, and they somehow

1388
01:31:12.560 --> 01:31:17.800
win yesterday with PJ. Walker.
But there's not a team that stands out

1389
01:31:17.920 --> 01:31:21.119
that kind of puts their hands on
their hips and says we are the class

1390
01:31:21.159 --> 01:31:25.239
of the AFC North right now.
Yeah, and and really on a league

1391
01:31:25.279 --> 01:31:28.399
wide basis, that's the case.
I mean, yesterday was upset day.

1392
01:31:28.439 --> 01:31:32.399
Yep. The final two undefeated is
went down and and the you know,

1393
01:31:32.520 --> 01:31:36.520
the forty nine ers, you know
they were one of the they fall into

1394
01:31:36.600 --> 01:31:42.520
that category. And it's a it's
the Cleveland Browns to get it done against

1395
01:31:42.560 --> 01:31:45.439
the forty nine ers. Like I
said, you look at it, it's

1396
01:31:45.520 --> 01:31:48.319
like, all right, boy,
that victory against San Francisco, that's a

1397
01:31:48.439 --> 01:31:53.439
tough get Cleveland. That's like a
win and a half right now to beat

1398
01:31:53.479 --> 01:31:57.520
the San Francisco forty nine ers,
because you got to figure how many,

1399
01:31:57.600 --> 01:32:00.479
how many how many AFC North teams
will the forty nine ers lose to.

1400
01:32:01.199 --> 01:32:04.359
But the fact is, the good
news is it's not really a win and

1401
01:32:04.399 --> 01:32:09.600
a half because it's not a division
opponent, it's not even a conference opponent.

1402
01:32:10.039 --> 01:32:13.279
But it is a hell of a
football team that's playing as well as

1403
01:32:13.279 --> 01:32:16.239
anybody in the National Football League.
And that is a win that makes everybody

1404
01:32:16.279 --> 01:32:20.960
sit up and take notice of at
Cleveland Browns defense, which is unbelievable.

1405
01:32:21.079 --> 01:32:26.640
Yeah, what they did to Perty
yesterday, Party was twelve of twenty seven

1406
01:32:26.880 --> 01:32:30.359
for one hundred and twenty five yards. They sacked him three times, they

1407
01:32:30.439 --> 01:32:34.560
picked him off. Quarterback rating fifty
five point three yesterday. And when you

1408
01:32:34.680 --> 01:32:40.880
lose your two top weapons, Deebo
Samuel and and most importantly McCafferty, I

1409
01:32:40.960 --> 01:32:45.880
mean McCaffrey's he's leading in the National
Football League in rushing, leading the National

1410
01:32:45.000 --> 01:32:48.560
League in first downs, leading the
National League in first downs rushing. I

1411
01:32:48.640 --> 01:32:53.920
mean this, this guy is.
You lose him. And then Deebo Samuel,

1412
01:32:54.239 --> 01:32:58.000
who's a Swiss Army knife extraordinaire.
He can do anything, really,

1413
01:32:58.119 --> 01:33:00.399
he can line up anywhere as a
receiver. He can also line up in

1414
01:33:00.439 --> 01:33:04.760
the backfield and run the football.
You lose both of those weapons. That

1415
01:33:04.920 --> 01:33:11.039
was a tough, tough deal for
Party going against a defense as good as

1416
01:33:11.039 --> 01:33:14.760
the Cleveland Browns. I mean,
Cleveland is making they're making a statement saying,

1417
01:33:14.840 --> 01:33:17.479
hey, don't forget about us.
You guys are talking about San Francisco's

1418
01:33:17.520 --> 01:33:21.439
defense, You're talking about Philadelphia's defense. What about us up here in Cleveland?

1419
01:33:21.520 --> 01:33:27.800
And Jim Schwartz is getting done putting
together very very good game plans,

1420
01:33:28.039 --> 01:33:31.520
and his players are believing and they
are executing an extremely high level. Final

1421
01:33:31.560 --> 01:33:35.239
point, and I thought it was
a great point you made earlier with Brian

1422
01:33:35.279 --> 01:33:40.920
when he was here. They have
this Bengals team. They have looked good

1423
01:33:41.159 --> 01:33:45.600
in different aspects at different times,
but haven't been able to piece all three

1424
01:33:45.720 --> 01:33:50.199
phases together. I'd say common sense
says that's coming with this team. This

1425
01:33:50.279 --> 01:33:55.119
team is too good not to be
able to do that. But six weeks

1426
01:33:55.199 --> 01:33:58.560
maybe I just can't see it continuing. When that's put together, I think

1427
01:33:58.600 --> 01:34:01.319
there will be a notice served look
out because when that happens, this is

1428
01:34:01.399 --> 01:34:05.920
a very dangerous football team. And
it's a very opportune time to take place.

1429
01:34:06.119 --> 01:34:10.039
After the bye, you know,
get rested up, get as healthy

1430
01:34:10.079 --> 01:34:14.239
as you possibly can. They are
in pretty good shape that way. They

1431
01:34:14.279 --> 01:34:18.079
have not been decimated by injury as
such. And if they can't start stringing

1432
01:34:18.119 --> 01:34:24.199
all three phases playing at a high
level at the same time, and do

1433
01:34:24.319 --> 01:34:28.960
it against San Francisco against Buffalo.
Gonna need it. That would be a

1434
01:34:29.119 --> 01:34:33.279
very opportune time. And if you
can jump two games over five hundred in

1435
01:34:33.439 --> 01:34:36.199
beating the forty nine ers on the
road and the Buffalo Bills at home,

1436
01:34:36.479 --> 01:34:42.279
and it's totally viable. I mean, uh, Buffalo, they didn't look

1437
01:34:42.319 --> 01:34:45.680
like world beaters last night, There's
no two ways about that. And San

1438
01:34:45.720 --> 01:34:50.399
Francisco, of course lost lost to
Cleveland up in Cleveland. So here we

1439
01:34:50.479 --> 01:34:54.439
go. Hopefully they do they get
they get it all in sync, get

1440
01:34:54.520 --> 01:34:59.199
in a rhythm. They talk about
all you hear players and coaches all the

1441
01:34:59.279 --> 01:35:02.000
time trying to find that rhythm,
trying to find that timing, you know,

1442
01:35:02.159 --> 01:35:08.199
and just just just a little bit
off. One cylinder is just not

1443
01:35:08.439 --> 01:35:12.720
quite clean yet. Get it done, Get it cleaned morning, get two

1444
01:35:12.800 --> 01:35:15.960
as we head down the stretch,
including game balls, the presentation. You

1445
01:35:16.000 --> 01:35:18.439
will hear it from the locker room. It's all ahead on Bengals Line,

1458
01:36:15.840 --> 01:36:19.439
that. My pleasure to have this
gentleman on board. He is the director

1459
01:36:19.479 --> 01:36:24.720
of Training and Compliance at Centas.
Brendan Klunk. Let's talk about the Save

1460
01:36:24.840 --> 01:36:30.720
the Day event at pay Corpse Stadium
and talk about Centas's role absolutely so first

1461
01:36:30.800 --> 01:36:34.239
off, like to you know,
introduce myself brind A clunkstructor print compliance from

1462
01:36:34.239 --> 01:36:39.439
an eleven year centas employee Sinta's partner
as we call him, the call of

1463
01:36:39.520 --> 01:36:45.079
our employees Partners. See we take
hi place October twenty fourth, Tuesday at

1464
01:36:45.159 --> 01:36:49.199
pay Corpse Stadium. We're gonna have
two sessions, one at five thirty pm

1465
01:36:50.039 --> 01:36:54.680
as well as one at six forty
five pm on that October twenty fourth.

1466
01:36:55.039 --> 01:36:57.680
And how did this event come together? You know, as you said,

1467
01:36:58.159 --> 01:37:02.479
partners, because it's very important CPR
and learning CPR and wake of Damar Hamlin

1468
01:37:02.560 --> 01:37:09.840
last year. Yeah, absolutely,
and you know it really came about because

1469
01:37:09.880 --> 01:37:14.199
of Damar's event and understanding how important
it is to spread awareness, you know,

1470
01:37:14.359 --> 01:37:17.199
for this and make sure people have
the tools to perform CPR. And

1471
01:37:17.239 --> 01:37:21.960
I really believe that everyone has the
courage in them to act and save a

1472
01:37:23.039 --> 01:37:26.000
life. You know, however,
we realize how important is to have the

1473
01:37:26.119 --> 01:37:30.399
confidence and the skills to act in
those situations. So, you know,

1474
01:37:30.560 --> 01:37:34.079
these type of events are really important
to make sure that people have those skills

1475
01:37:34.119 --> 01:37:39.840
and confidence necessary to save a life
if it ever happens. Okay, So

1476
01:37:39.920 --> 01:37:43.560
who's conducting the events? I'm sure
that they have a lot of experience in

1477
01:37:43.680 --> 01:37:46.119
this area. Well, absolutely so. Our syntas volunteers you know, will

1478
01:37:46.159 --> 01:37:51.079
be conducting you know, the events. They're all CPR certified. Our instructors

1479
01:37:51.119 --> 01:37:58.119
are trained certified instructors. We actually
train over three hundred thousand people every year

1480
01:37:58.479 --> 01:38:03.680
on CPR, and our ads and
CPR training actually save one life per week

1481
01:38:03.800 --> 01:38:09.880
on average. Show we're gonna have
phenomenal instructors there to make sure that everyone

1482
01:38:10.000 --> 01:38:14.680
is really comfortable doing these things.
You know, I'm sure as a result

1483
01:38:14.720 --> 01:38:19.159
of this, it really empowers people
to be better prepared for emergency situations.

1484
01:38:19.840 --> 01:38:25.720
Definitely, absolutely, And that's really
all where all we're asking for is you

1485
01:38:25.840 --> 01:38:30.399
have the confidence in preparation. You
know. I think the same goes with

1486
01:38:30.079 --> 01:38:33.000
Joe Burrow. He's got he's got
to practice, he's got to be ready

1487
01:38:33.039 --> 01:38:38.000
to play. He doesn't just go
out to the game and say I'm here,

1488
01:38:38.199 --> 01:38:41.720
let's go h He practices. And
I think that's the same with with

1489
01:38:41.880 --> 01:38:45.800
CPR and these skills, is we
need people to learn them, you know,

1490
01:38:45.960 --> 01:38:48.720
be confident in them that if it
ever does come to that event,

1491
01:38:48.800 --> 01:38:51.359
which we don't want to happen,
but if it does, we want to

1492
01:38:51.479 --> 01:38:55.800
be ready. Well, I agree
with you, and I think people definitely

1493
01:38:56.000 --> 01:38:59.279
need to sign up. How can
they do that? Yeah, people can

1494
01:38:59.359 --> 01:39:03.520
go to go to Bengals dot com
flat Save the Day d e Y to

1495
01:39:03.640 --> 01:39:09.479
register spotsor on a first come,
first served basis. You know, we've

1496
01:39:09.520 --> 01:39:13.640
got a lot of people signing up
so far. There's a lot of excitement

1497
01:39:13.680 --> 01:39:15.680
around this and this is just an, you know, an incredible thing that

1498
01:39:16.359 --> 01:39:20.800
syntas you know, the Bengals and
the AHA are doing. So as we

1499
01:39:20.880 --> 01:39:25.199
wrap up, Brendan and I really
appreciate your time, what would you like

1500
01:39:25.279 --> 01:39:29.720
to say to encourage people to get
involved in this because I'm in agreement with

1501
01:39:29.840 --> 01:39:32.119
you that is definitely something important.
Yeah, for sure, you know,

1502
01:39:32.359 --> 01:39:36.239
I would say listen, you know, your courage and quick action can be

1503
01:39:36.359 --> 01:39:41.600
the difference in saving someone's life.
And even if you don't know that person,

1504
01:39:42.319 --> 01:39:44.760
you know that person you help.
You know they have a family,

1505
01:39:45.319 --> 01:39:47.279
they maybe have a husband, they
have a wife. You know, they're

1506
01:39:47.319 --> 01:39:50.399
a brother, there's maybe they're a
sister, there's someone's child, they're a

1507
01:39:50.439 --> 01:39:55.800
grandparent, right and you know your
quick action can help save their life.

1508
01:39:56.600 --> 01:40:00.960
You know, credit arrest happens one
hundreds of thousands of people every year,

1509
01:40:00.119 --> 01:40:05.720
and we want you to be the
person to act and feel confident acting if

1510
01:40:05.760 --> 01:40:12.239
it ever happened. So this is
incredibly important to me to sentas to the

1511
01:40:12.279 --> 01:40:16.079
Bengals, to everyone really in the
world. It should be so I would

1512
01:40:16.119 --> 01:40:20.680
really encourage people to come out,
be willing to learn, and then if

1513
01:40:20.720 --> 01:40:24.800
it ever happens, you know you're
gonna be ready. All right, Brendan,

1514

1533
01:41:45.680 --> 01:41:50.079
game in the second half or more
than half of the season remaining, and

1534
01:41:50.560 --> 01:41:55.840
you can catch it on just about
anywhere that you normally go to catch your

1535
01:41:55.920 --> 01:42:00.880
podcast, and hopefully you'll find it
worthwhile listening to get players, coaches,

1536
01:42:01.000 --> 01:42:06.720
former players, former coaches, broadcast
world folks covering the National Football League and

1537
01:42:08.560 --> 01:42:12.359
try to get as many varied opinions
as possible. It is always good stuff,

1538
01:42:12.560 --> 01:42:15.680
and it's always good stuff when we
go inside the locker room. You

1539
01:42:15.760 --> 01:42:19.720
can hear the game ball presentations.
Let's go inside the Bengals locker room after

1540
01:42:19.880 --> 01:42:24.640
yesterday's win. Here's how it sounded. Hey, for one second, that

1541
01:42:24.840 --> 01:42:27.680
was not easy. But at the
end of the day, you guys found

1542
01:42:27.720 --> 01:42:34.359
a way to pull it out.
Three three, half off. That team

1543
01:42:34.520 --> 01:42:38.520
all three phases. We've all watched
the tape. That's a good football team,

1544
01:42:38.560 --> 01:42:41.640
man. So they gave us their
best shot. We gave ours.

1545
01:42:41.720 --> 01:42:44.199
We came out on top. We
were proud of you guys. Okay,

1546
01:42:44.520 --> 01:42:59.399
a couple of guys stood out Yoshi
first first touchdown defense today. Okay,

1547
01:43:00.319 --> 01:43:02.920
the last four times they drove down
there in the low red zone, one

1548
01:43:03.000 --> 01:43:09.319
field goal, two turnover, some
down, one turnover, three points the

1549
01:43:09.520 --> 01:43:18.359
last four red zones. That's all
starts off. She yo ye, you

1550
01:43:18.399 --> 01:43:27.319
get a game both yeah, and
then the next one because the entire defense,

1551
01:43:27.399 --> 01:43:32.800
man, game now defense for what
you guys did today, Man,

1552
01:43:32.840 --> 01:43:38.119
it's all blessing. And there's three
times the defense is picking up the offense.

1553
01:43:38.199 --> 01:43:40.960
The offense picked up the defense.
Best team's taken over. That's what

1554
01:43:41.079 --> 01:43:44.079
great teams do. They just figure
it out. Man, they figured out

1555
01:43:44.119 --> 01:43:45.800
I need to given Sunday and right
now, you guys are three and three,

1556
01:43:45.960 --> 01:43:48.920
and I expect to see you guys
fresh and ready to roll on Monday

1557
01:43:48.920 --> 01:43:53.880
when we showed back up here,
get on. That goes to all defense

1558
01:43:54.000 --> 01:44:15.479
is ringing us down. Hey,
we had a man town right the sounds

1559
01:44:15.520 --> 01:44:20.119
of victory yesterday with game ball presentations. I know what I wanted to add

1560
01:44:20.159 --> 01:44:24.079
in before we run out of time. I love this staff from ESPN Stats

1561
01:44:24.119 --> 01:44:27.920
and Info. Yose Vosh had the
touchdown yesterday and his birthday. According to

1562
01:44:28.159 --> 01:44:32.279
ESPN, the last Bengal to record
a touchdown catch on their birthday, believe

1563
01:44:32.279 --> 01:44:36.800
it or not, was Andrew Whitworth
when he caught the pass from Carson Paul

1564
01:44:36.920 --> 01:44:43.680
Frown twenty ten against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The last Bengal with the receiving touchdown

1565
01:44:44.000 --> 01:44:46.399
on their birthday. That's a wild
stat how about that. I'll tell you

1566
01:44:46.479 --> 01:44:48.880
that you could win a lot of
money with that. For your question.

1567
01:44:49.359 --> 01:44:54.760
That one'd be hard to hard to
pull out, that's for sure. Unbelievable,

1568
01:44:54.840 --> 01:44:58.520
big wit back in two thousand and
ten. And a final note,

1569
01:44:58.600 --> 01:45:02.560
Jamar Chase yesterday had over five catches. That's that's fourteen straight games with at

1570
01:45:02.720 --> 01:45:08.359
least five catches, the longest active
streak in the NFL. He's now got

1571
01:45:08.479 --> 01:45:12.359
fifty catches on the season, tied
for most in the National Football League,

1572
01:45:12.399 --> 01:45:15.039
and is five hundred and fifty six
yards, is seventh most in the NFL.

1573
01:45:15.119 --> 01:45:19.319
After a little bit of a slow
start, he's in fuego, fifth

1574
01:45:19.399 --> 01:45:25.439
player in NFL history to reach three
thousand yards receiving in his first thirty five

1575
01:45:25.760 --> 01:45:29.520
games. And he wore the seven
eleven chain because he's he's always open,

1576
01:45:29.840 --> 01:45:32.560
always opened, seven to eleven centate
to him right away. That is fantastic,

1577
01:45:33.720 --> 01:45:38.239
that's great. It can't be all
right. So we go on to

1578
01:45:38.319 --> 01:45:41.199
buy and then we come back and
we'll have the forty nine Ers game to

1579
01:45:41.279 --> 01:45:44.960
recap. The second half of the
season is going to be fun. First

1580
01:45:45.039 --> 01:45:47.840
half waivered at times, he got
a little dicey, but now good to

1581
01:45:47.920 --> 01:45:50.319
go and make a run on the
second half should be fun. I cannot

1582
01:45:50.520 --> 01:45:56.239
wait. I do think that they've
got their best football ahead of them because

1583
01:45:56.279 --> 01:46:00.279
they have not come close yet to
play that game where all three phases are

1584
01:46:00.479 --> 01:46:03.840
in sync. Can I wait to
see it unfold. Thanks for hanging out

1585
01:46:03.840 --> 01:46:08.079
with us, everybody. It's been
Bengals Line on the first Star Logistics Bengals

1586
