1:38

Welcome to the Richard Sherman Podcast.

1:41

We got one of my favorite guys, Kyle

1:43

Hughes Chick just as Shitch.

1:45

How you doing, baby, big Surm?

1:47

I'm good, brother, How are you doing?

1:49

I'm doing fantastic. Man.

1:51

You guys are rolling firing on

1:53

all cylinders. I needed that win so

1:55

that I could go on my other show and

1:57

have a good time, and y'all gave it to me.

2:00

How you feeling after that.

2:00

Game, man, I'm feeling great. It's

2:03

hard not to, you know, we're in such a good spot

2:05

right now. Uh five and zero

2:08

seem to you know, really be firing on all cylinders.

2:11

So you know, it's hard not to feel good at this moment.

2:15

Yeah, I mean you got to feel good. Kyle

2:17

looks like he's feeling good. I saw him when we had

2:19

you guys Thursday night against the Giants.

2:22

I told him he didn't look at stress, he didn't have those big

2:24

bags under his eyes and looks like he

2:26

hasn't slept in weeks. Then he got

2:28

that extension. Tell me about how

2:30

he has been this year as compared

2:33

to years in the past. I mean, obviously, you guys have

2:35

had a ton of success, but he just looks like he's

2:37

in a much happier, you know, healthier

2:39

place.

2:40

Yeah, definitely.

2:41

And you know that's not to say that you know, everything's

2:43

been easy and that he's not worried.

2:46

You know, Kyle's Kyle, and he's always going

2:48

to be hard on us and he expects

2:50

a lot from us, for sure. But he's

2:53

even said that, you know, with the team

2:55

that we have and the culture we've built, the

2:57

leadership and uh, the just the amount

2:59

of experience that we have, like

3:01

there's there's just some like little things that like

3:03

you don't have to worry about as much. Like

3:06

you know, when when

3:08

a team starts talking about

3:10

you know, playoffs and seating and that

3:13

kind of stuff, and is this early in the year, like

3:15

sometimes you can get a little worried, Like Okay,

3:18

like do these guys understand, you know,

3:20

what it takes to get through an entire NFL season,

3:22

Like, but with this team,

3:24

like we've all been through it, we all understand.

3:27

Like, I don't feel like we're getting

3:29

ahead of ourselves too much. We definitely are like

3:32

locked into what's happening right now,

3:34

but we're also aware that, you

3:36

know, what happens now really does affect

3:38

us down the line when it comes

3:40

to seating, and seating is huge

3:42

when it comes to you know, trying to get in that dance.

3:45

Man, that that first round by is

3:47

is no joke. It's a serious advantage and

3:49

that's something we're trying to get.

3:51

Yeah, you're trying to get it, and you guys

3:54

are doing everything you can and it's starting at the quarterback

3:56

position.

3:57

Uh.

3:57

Talk about brock perty and how how cool

3:59

it's been to see his growth and when

4:01

when did you know he was he was a guy?

4:04

Man, Rock Purty is just he's been

4:06

incredible and you know what hasn't

4:08

been said at this point. This guy is just so consistent,

4:11

such a competitor, just

4:14

truly just a dog out there man, Like

4:16

he's just a gamer. He knows what it

4:18

takes to win football

4:20

games. He just he just knows how

4:22

to play the position. And I

4:24

think that's something that's so underrated as

4:27

a guy that you know is truly

4:30

Like I always say, the biggest compliment you

4:32

could ever give me is to say that, like

4:34

I'm a football player, and like

4:36

Rock Purty is a football player. He just has

4:39

a knact out there, and he's just

4:41

done such a good job of leading this offense. He

4:43

always steps in there with so much confidence and

4:46

it doesn't really seem to matter, you know, what's

4:48

being said around him. He just goes out there proves

4:50

people wrong each week. But I don't even

4:52

think that's really that's not his goal. Like he's

4:54

not going out there like, man, I'm gonna

4:56

show out so I can shut up all these people

4:58

who say, you know, I'm not. Like, he

5:01

just wants to win, and he just wants to, you

5:04

know, prove it to his teammates that he's

5:06

our guy and that he can be counted

5:08

on.

5:09

And throwing touchdowns to Juice doesn't It

5:11

doesn't hurt anybody.

5:12

It never hurts man.

5:13

Never.

5:13

You know, first NFL touchdown

5:16

was to your boy.

5:17

You know, he knows where

5:20

but he knows.

5:22

He knows.

5:23

Oh man, that was that was great to see. He

5:25

performs well on prime time anytime.

5:27

Kittle Kittle was at the most touchdowns

5:30

of his career with this kid throwing the football.

5:32

How is his like huddle presence?

5:34

Oh, it's incredible, man, And uh it's

5:37

it was so cool even last year, you know, to

5:40

step in as a rookie, filling

5:42

in for two guys, you know, the two starters that had

5:45

gone down, and just to step in with such confidence

5:47

and uh, the ability.

5:49

Just to command the huddle.

5:51

You know last year, you know, I told his

5:53

story about he literally came in and told us, hey, shut

5:55

up, and then.

5:56

You know, oh,

6:00

all right, all right rock.

6:02

And he's still to this day like he just he just

6:05

knows how to command the huddle. And when he's

6:07

talking, he's talking, and he's

6:09

going to lead that ship.

6:11

And he's done a great job. You

6:13

guys have leaders all over the place. You guys

6:15

had a ton of success. I was there

6:17

for a little while with you guys. But

6:19

when you first came in and you know, guys

6:21

who are six and ten and Jimmy

6:24

started the last few games of the year. How

6:26

has the culture because you've literally

6:28

been there the entire time. Talk about

6:30

how the culture has changed, how Kyle's evolved,

6:32

how the team has evolved,

6:34

because right now, you guys are perennial. You

6:37

know, you know, no matter what the record is in the

6:39

regular season, what happens in the regular season, if y'all

6:41

get in the tournament, you are likely gonna

6:43

make some noise.

6:45

Talk about how that culture developed.

6:47

Yeah, Hey, I've been here for since square one. Sure,

6:50

man, it's year eleven. I've

6:52

been here for seven years, man, which is

6:54

is truly crazy to think about the

6:56

fact that I went through those first We lost our

6:59

first nine game here, we were zero to nine,

7:01

man, but finished six and ten as soon

7:03

as Jimmy got here, and that's when things you really started

7:05

to turn around. But I

7:07

felt like Kyle and John when they brought

7:09

me in here, like they truly

7:12

had they had a vision of what this thing

7:14

is going to look like, and what this locker

7:16

room was going to be like, what the culture was going to be like.

7:19

And you know, that doesn't just

7:21

happen overnight, like it takes a few years

7:23

to really establish that, to get the right

7:25

guys in here, to figure out even

7:28

even when you have that vision you got to go through things

7:30

and see it to really, you know,

7:32

be like, all right, this, this is what we're looking for.

7:34

These are the guys that I want

7:36

leading our team.

7:37

And it's been so cool to be a part of that

7:39

and to see it grow each and every

7:42

year. And now, like you said, like it's

7:45

expected at this point, you know, like

7:48

it truly is. It's something that when new guys

7:50

come into the building they

7:52

can feel it even without saying

7:54

it. You know, early on we had to you kind

7:56

of had to you have to spell it out, you know,

7:59

because you don't know, you don't know. But

8:01

at this point, like things don't even really have to

8:03

be said, because you can just witness it. You

8:05

can see how, you know, Fred Warner

8:07

trains, you can see how Deebo

8:10

Samuels showing up in shape ready

8:12

to go. See the way that Brandon

8:14

I, you and Christian McCaffrey practice,

8:16

Like you can't watch those guys practice

8:19

and not come away so incredibly

8:22

impressed because they've already had

8:24

success. Like these guys don't have to prove anything,

8:26

like these are certified ballers

8:28

in this league and they're still busting

8:31

their asset practice, putting everything into it.

8:34

So when you're a young guy or a new guy and you see that,

8:36

you're like, oh, okay, that's how that's how they work

8:38

in San Francisco.

9:41

it's gone.

9:46

Well.

9:46

Talk about Christian McCaffrey a little bit, because

9:48

obviously He came a little past

9:50

halfway point in the season last year and made an

9:52

immediate impact. But this year, got a full off

9:55

season of work, you know, game

9:57

planning, Kyle got a full off season and figure out

9:59

how to use him well. But it

10:02

seems like the things he brings to the table

10:04

are much more than even you see with what

10:07

he does on the field on Sundays, you know, what he brings

10:09

to his team seems to be even more valuable.

10:11

Yeah, no, I gotta I gotta make

10:14

sure I don't talk for the next thirty five minutes

10:16

straight about Christian because I got a lot.

10:17

I could come.

10:19

We're hereful, but man,

10:22

you're you're so right.

10:24

Christian's impact goes far beyond you

10:26

know, the two hundred yards from scrimmage

10:29

he gets every game and the scoring

10:31

a touchdown in each of the last like fourteen

10:33

straight games. Like I mean, that's massive

10:35

because at the end of the day, like it's about winning and

10:37

it's about putting points on the board, and he's

10:40

been a massive major part of

10:42

that. Like his stat lines speak for himself.

10:44

But truly, the person that we brought in here,

10:47

the guy works harder

10:49

than anybody I know, is harder on himself

10:51

than anybody I know, Like Christian McCaffrey

10:54

is Christian McCaffrey's biggest critic,

10:57

and he's gonna always push himself

10:59

no matter what the game looks like,

11:01

even if he had one hundred and fifty yards, like,

11:04

he always feels like there's something left out there

11:06

that he could get better at. And I think just

11:08

guys seeing that, like I

11:10

spoke about earlier, like you know, you see how

11:13

fat or how hard he practices

11:15

and how hard he's running in practice.

11:18

Man, it just pushes you like, Man,

11:20

if Christian's doing that, I need to do that.

11:23

So you know, as we like to say, it's contagious.

11:26

You know that that type of thing is contagious

11:29

and it gets spread around the

11:31

whole locker room. And really can't

11:33

say enough about what Christian

11:35

has done for this team. It wouldn't addition, it's been

11:38

well.

11:38

People to ever give my boy Juice enough credit, even

11:40

though he's the best full back in the league and he gangs the

11:42

Pro Bowl every year, that's not enough credit.

11:45

They took the All Pro out of there, pissed

11:48

you off.

11:50

I know, I know, at

11:52

least we got the NFLPA All Pro.

11:56

We got we got that going, and honestly that

11:58

that means more to me than

12:01

than the the ap All Pro because I would

12:03

much rather have the votes from my colleagues,

12:05

from my guys who truly understand what we're

12:08

going through, to have guys in the

12:10

other locker room voting for me as opposed

12:12

to you know, people who are

12:14

just observing us on surface level, watching

12:16

us on Sundays like it's

12:19

it takes a lot, you know, you

12:21

know what it takes to go out there and perform

12:24

and really be an impact for your

12:26

team. So it's you know, when when players can

12:28

give you those votes, that means more to me.

12:30

Anyways, Well, fans, don't make sure

12:32

y'all get the votes too, because that matters in the

12:34

Pro Bowl. Bot he

12:39

want, he needs them and deserves them all. But

12:41

people don't even understand your impact

12:43

and how hard your job is because people

12:46

think you only have one job and you have

12:48

like seventeen.

12:51

I see, you're.

12:51

Playing full back, you're playing slot

12:53

receiver, you're playing tailback.

12:56

At times you're playing tight end or

12:58

h back, you know whatever.

12:59

You guys want to talk about that

13:01

kind of how tough it is to balance.

13:04

You know that in the playbook because I know the

13:06

urbage changes and the position changes, and you

13:08

got a motion here, motion here. I saw you catch an R and

13:10

PO the other day and almost score. I said, Okay,

13:12

jus trying to get sexy.

13:15

Man.

13:16

Yeah, I take a ton of pride in that.

13:17

I really really do like to be able

13:19

to play all those different positions in

13:22

this offense. It's not easy, and

13:24

you know it's We've spoken in length about

13:26

how complex Kyle's offense is, and

13:29

it takes.

13:30

A lot of preparation.

13:31

Like I'm taking extensive notes even

13:33

in year eleven near year seven of this

13:35

offense. Like my note list each

13:37

game is still it's still pretty long.

13:40

Because I always want to be ready no matter

13:42

what position I'm put in. I just

13:45

want Kyle to always have that confidence

13:47

that, oh wait, we didn't even

13:49

rep this out of twenty one personnel this week.

13:51

Whatever, Like I know Juice will have it, you

13:53

know what I mean. So I just want

13:55

to be ready for any situation so that Kyle

13:58

always has the confidence to call any play

14:00

that he can even think of and know

14:02

that I can.

14:03

Go out there and be successful with it.

14:04

So I take a ton of pride in that

14:06

and just try to you know, keep doing

14:09

it each week.

14:10

Well, you're doing a great job, Juice.

14:11

As always, I want to talk about

14:13

a guy who doesn't get enough credit.

14:15

He's been a little banged up this year. But these

14:18

receivers a lot of people.

14:19

I mean, I guess people do know now about how Kyle

14:21

coaches receivers and how hard he is on him and

14:24

how you got a block.

14:25

But Juwan Jennings is taking

14:27

it to a whole nother level. He was out

14:29

there in the fourth quarter just bullying

14:31

people. Talk about his impact.

14:35

Man.

14:36

JJ is one of my favorite players on this team.

14:38

I got a lot of locker right next to him,

14:40

so I've gotten close

14:42

to him over the years and I just love

14:45

you know, what he puts into the game and how selfless

14:48

he is, and.

14:48

How he doesn't even he doesn't

14:50

need.

14:51

The recognition to go out there and bust his tail every

14:53

single day because

14:55

the guy he always he always shows up

14:57

when it's needed. You know, we always say third in Juwan

15:00

like Jawan he always has.

15:02

It seems like every game he has one or two of

15:04

those really big third down pickups

15:07

that it's a difference in the game. He always

15:09

makes a difference, whether it's picking

15:12

up those third downs or as

15:14

we love to see him just absolutely getting

15:16

after DBS.

15:17

I know you love to see this

15:21

man.

15:22

He is absolutely ruthless. Like that guy

15:25

is gonna block to the whistle every single

15:27

time and through the whistle sometimes,

15:30

and he loves antagonizing guys

15:33

and getting under.

15:34

Their skin and he has a knack for it.

15:36

And we all appreciate him here,

15:39

you know, in the locker room, we all understand

15:41

what he brings to the table, and you know he

15:43

doesn't. And that's what I love

15:46

is that he's still you know, he's

15:48

not getting announced with the starting lineup

15:50

when we're running out there. When people

15:53

always talk about, you know, the Niners offense

15:55

has so many weapons.

15:56

Very rarely do you hear his name in

15:58

that long list of players.

16:00

And he deserves that recognition

16:02

because he really is a weapon and

16:04

he is a starter. He starts on third downs,

16:08

but it doesn't seem to matter to him, Like all

16:11

that aside. He's gonna go out there, bust

16:13

his tail and make an impact

16:15

every week.

16:16

And no, that's the culture, and that's the culture. That's

16:19

winning culture. You know, I don't care what it takes.

16:21

If you got sixty nine guys who

16:23

only care about winning and not care about their own

16:25

stats. Arising Todd lifts all ships, as

16:27

you know, and that's what's happened with this organization.

16:30

You guys got a

16:32

great defense too. You know.

16:34

We can talk about all pro Fred, we can talk

16:36

about Tala Nohufanga, we can talk

16:39

about Nicholas John Bosa, but

16:41

instead I

16:43

want to talk about Tayshaun Gibson. Yes,

16:46

because Ghip is back there balling

16:48

and it quietly. He had

16:50

five six interceptions and nobody

16:52

says anything like like, oh, these are just Gimbi's

16:55

Like it's a reason he's there.

16:57

Right, Man.

16:58

I give Loki one

17:00

of my favorite players on the team, Gips.

17:05

He's an incredible leader just

17:07

by what he does out there. Like you don't

17:10

you don't hear Gip talking too much in

17:12

front of the team, but

17:14

he always leads by example and if you and

17:16

if you talk to him one on one, he always has

17:18

something impactful to say. Every

17:20

every conversation I have with GiB, I always

17:22

come away with it like, man, I learned

17:24

something like this, This is a true VET

17:27

And I think, uh, you know, I

17:29

gotta check my sets. I think he's second in

17:31

all active dbs

17:33

and interceptions right now, and you

17:36

really and you never hear about him Like last

17:38

season, he was a late addition. I think

17:40

we signed him during training camp. Nobody

17:43

expected him to be a starter for us

17:46

and came in and you know, was one of the best

17:48

players.

17:49

I'm one of the best defenses in the NFL.

17:51

So, I mean, this guy, he's been

17:53

doing it for a long time and you haven't. Again,

17:55

there's so many unsung heroes on this team

17:58

just and that's what's gonna happen when you

18:00

have a winning team, a winning culture.

18:03

It's never just about those

18:06

top two three guys that everybody hears

18:08

about. There's always so many more guys that are

18:10

making an impact. You have

18:12

to have guys like Gifts in order

18:15

to have a defense like we do.

18:18

Well, the person who's starting in front

19:38

of you holding the football and field goals is having

19:40

quite a season for himself as well.

19:43

He's what has he got?

19:44

Uh?

19:45

Seven inside to ten or since inside the

19:47

five?

19:48

It's not too bad, my man, Mitch Mitchell

19:51

Wishnowski.

19:53

Uh, he's having a Pro Bowl season.

19:55

Talk about his impact You know because obviously he's

19:57

not an American, he's a thirty year

19:59

old Australian.

20:00

Oh is a uh dude,

20:03

he's he's had an incredible year.

20:05

Listen, we're not trying to punt ever, but

20:07

uh, it happens sometimes.

20:10

You know, we're not gonna Unfortunately we're

20:12

not scoring on every single drive, but when

20:14

we do have to punt, we have all the confidence

20:16

in the world that that Mitch is going to pin

20:19

them down and good luck

20:21

going ninety five yards on our defense.

20:23

You know that that what more can we ask

20:25

for it?

20:25

If we're not going to score, then to put

20:28

the opposing team's offense in that position

20:30

to have to go the whole field on

20:32

our defense, Like we feel like that's that's

20:35

a tall, tall task, tall order

20:37

for anybody. And

20:39

man, he he's he's just he's got so

20:41

many tricks in his bag.

20:43

Like so you'll you'll appreciate

20:45

this. So this this.

20:46

Uh during training camp, I

20:49

haven't been doing as many special teams this year, which

20:51

has been nice.

20:52

Like I've been a little more fresher for offense. But

20:55

while special.

20:56

Teams are going on and I get a little extra warm

20:58

up, I like getting involved

21:00

and everything.

21:00

So I started catching punts. I started catching

21:02

punts this training camp.

21:05

Yeah that was so right. Now I'm the

21:07

emergency punt returner. But

21:11

but regardless, I got to experience

21:13

firsthand what it's like trying to catch

21:15

Mitch's punts.

21:17

And man, what that is a slept

21:19

on ability question.

21:22

Holy smokes like being able to

21:24

catch any NFL punt let

21:26

alone Mitch Wishnowski's punts, man

21:29

freaky like diad looking these.

21:32

Banana balls that are spinning in a million

21:34

different directions, or he's hitting these knuckleballs.

21:38

You know, it gets taken for granted, Like

21:40

you watch these games and you just expect, all

21:42

right, the returner is going to catch it every time, and

21:44

if he doesn't, everyone's blown away.

21:47

Believe me, that thing is not easy.

21:49

So shout out to ray Ary

21:51

McLeod making it look so easy for us, because

21:53

he's done a great job with that as well.

21:55

Speaking of making it look easy, your offense

21:57

made it look easy against my old defensive Cord

22:00

dan Quinn. What did y'all see on the tape?

22:02

You know, was it anything from that Arizona game

22:04

or was it just from the playoff game? Or you

22:07

know, I ain't gonna make you give away no sectscause

22:09

you'll might see him a game.

22:10

We're gonna pass that.

22:13

We'll go to our guy, Mike

22:16

McDaniel. How often do

22:18

you laugh when you see him doing press conference?

22:21

Knowing what you know about Mike.

22:24

I am so entertained by

22:26

everything that Mike does.

22:27

Uh.

22:28

He is such a personality, man, one of my

22:30

all time favorite coaches, all time

22:32

favorite people.

22:34

Uh.

22:35

Man, he is truly one of a kind.

22:37

And I get so fired up to see the success

22:39

that he's having and to

22:42

see him genuinely just

22:44

be himself, like what you see that

22:46

is Mike McDaniel. Like he is not

22:49

filtering anything, he is not

22:51

putting anything behind the curtain, like that is

22:53

Mike. And I love to see him

22:56

be able to express himself and just be himself

22:58

because that's when he's at his best man, when he

23:00

can truly just be him.

23:02

And man, he's so entertained

23:04

and I'm so happy for him.

23:06

I am too. And speaking of his offense,

23:09

I see.

23:09

Look, I don't know whose ideas they are,

23:12

but I see a lot of mirrored concepts.

23:14

And sometimes they run him first. Sometimes you

23:17

guys run him first. Which one came first?

23:19

The chicken on the egg baby.

23:21

He ain't that the truth? Ain't that the truth? I

23:23

know, listen, it's it's

23:25

a copycat league. We're all stealing stuff from

23:27

one another. So I'm sure both

23:30

Kyle and Mike will tell you they're

23:32

watching each other's tape every single week

23:34

and if they say anything different, they're lying

23:36

to you.

23:37

So I see Kyle starting to

23:39

use that sexy motion off out of the

23:41

slot back outside.

23:43

Yeah, I know what's

23:45

going on there.

23:46

Just the week after Tyreek did

23:48

that, I swear probably sixteen

23:50

teams in the NFL were doing it the next week, and

23:52

we were one of them.

23:53

So props to Mic for that

23:55

one.

23:56

Mike, you know, he's gonna keep being innovative.

23:58

And I know they got to play the Dallas Cowboy, so they're gonna

24:00

be looking at that tape and then saying

24:02

that worked

24:05

notebook. So what

24:07

what are your expectations for this upcoming

24:10

week?

24:11

Man?

24:13

For us, it's it's really about continuing

24:15

to get better, continuing to build

24:18

on what we have, and like I you

24:20

know, when we started the show, I said, like, it's hard

24:22

not to feel good where we're at. We've won every game

24:24

that we've played for five and zero. Things are

24:26

really clicking on all cylinders. But really

24:29

the message that we've been thrown around

24:31

to in the locker room is, Man,

24:33

they don't hand out rings from winning the first

24:35

five games of the year, you know that,

24:38

Like I wish they did.

24:39

I need a ring, man, I really we won

24:41

the first.

24:45

And guess what we Yeah, and we

24:47

got close, but we we still didn't get when we weren't

24:49

holding up no trophies.

24:50

So that's what it's really about,

24:53

is getting.

24:53

Better and knowing that we need to

24:56

be prepared at the end of the season when

24:58

it truly truly when your backs against.

25:01

The wall, when it's win or go home.

25:03

Uh, So we have to continue to progress and

25:06

I think that's gonna that's what's gonna motivate

25:08

us and push us for the rest.

25:10

Of the season each week is just knowing

25:13

that.

25:13

So that's I mean, that's a big focus for us, and

25:15

knowing that it's not even always about

25:17

who we're playing. Yeah, we got a good defense

25:20

we're going against in the Cleveland Browns, but

25:22

it's really about us and about how we

25:24

can continue to get better and how we can

25:26

be prepared when you know stuff truly

25:29

truly matters.

25:30

How often do you do you think about

25:32

that twenty nineteen season or lean on the experience

25:35

that is the last time the San Francisco fort nine ers

25:37

went to the Super Bowl. Obviously you guys have went to NFC

25:39

Championships, But do you do you ever

25:41

think about that or any have any memories from that season

25:43

that you're that are fond to you?

25:46

Yeah?

25:46

Man, of course, of course my fondest

25:48

memories are being teammates for Richard Sherman.

25:50

Man, that's what I was just.

25:54

Kidding me, hanging on the Greenbrier

25:56

with Big on the crass, tell

26:00

everybody about what's going on there. Never

26:03

never mine, But uh

26:05

man, Yeah, there's a lot to draw from that

26:07

season because, uh, you know, we

26:09

were able to get to that game, really

26:11

get to the party, and you know, now

26:14

I know what it does take during the season

26:17

to get to that point. So yeah, I

26:20

draw from that season all the time, and uh

26:22

I always think about it.

26:24

Man. I try not to let it

26:26

get me down.

26:27

Well, you don't let it get you down because you're still in it on

26:29

a great team that's gonna get back to that game. But

26:31

what is your mindset going to that game

26:33

if you get there again? Oh?

26:36

Man, if we get there again.

26:38

Like it, it really

26:40

comes down to we gotta we

26:43

gotta execute even better, you know,

26:45

like the whole time, the whole

26:47

entire time, and it and that.

26:50

Okay, there you go, that's you. Honestly,

26:52

you just said it right there is execating

26:54

executing for the whole sixty minutes,

26:56

because we executed for about fifty three

26:58

minutes.

26:59

And just like they don't hand.

27:01

Out rings for the first five games of

27:03

the season, they don't give you the w until

27:06

those that clock read zero. And

27:09

so if when we

27:11

get back in that game, it's all

27:13

about playing until that until the

27:15

final whistle. I mean, I think we scored twenty

27:17

points in that game, and we

27:19

know that's not enough.

27:20

Man.

27:21

It wasn't enough in that game. And we have

27:23

a higher standard for ourselves.

27:25

Yeah, no question. I can't wait to see that

27:27

you guys make it back. I'm gonna find

27:29

a way into that stadium to

27:32

watch my guys. But I

27:34

appreciate you joining me. I know it's your day off, baby,

27:36

I'll let you get some rest. If you got any questions

27:38

or anything you want to say to anybody, feel

27:41

free.

27:42

Man, Hey, really, just thank

27:44

you for going with that chorus. Many no I

27:47

just I said it to you before we got on here,

27:49

but I say it again. Hey, we appreciate

27:52

the support. Sherm my wife.

27:54

She always Joe. She's like, didn't Sharon play

27:56

for the Seahawks for like ten years? Like

27:58

all he talks about to night.

28:01

Look, Look, I talk about

28:04

my guys.

28:04

I talk about the Seahawks what I can, but the

28:06

Niners are usually the guy the game I'm dealing

28:09

with. And when you talk about the Cowboys and the way you

28:11

guys are playing, I can't help but speak as

28:13

highly as I can about my guys.

28:14

I know, just from spending time with you as

28:16

a teammate that you

28:19

you talk about what's real. You've always been

28:22

one of the most real people I know, and so

28:24

I appreciate your genuineness and recognizing

28:27

you know what is happening and you're not

28:30

trying to fabricate anything. I

28:32

feel like what you say is always authentic.

28:34

So you're the man sharing.

28:35

I appreciate you, brother.

28:36

You guys keep making me right, and I'm gonna keep

28:39

loving you guys up and I can't. I hope we get

28:41

fifteen guys to the Pro Bowl this year. I'm

28:44

we don't get people.

28:44

Recognized baby, Yeah

28:47
