Always much appreciated when you tune in. Don't forget, you can read my work on ESPN.com. I'll have a story up soon about the commander's versatility in the past rush and how, really, basically how free agency has helped the versatility in the past rush and why that basically how free agency has helped the versatility |
| 0:38.6 | in the past rush and why that's important how it looks etc etc etc some of which i'm going to be |
| 0:43.0 | talking about in a minute as part of my five thoughts because i kind of think it's important and it's |
| 0:48.1 | very beneficial to what this team hopes to do so before i get there i really don't have a whole lot to say |
| 0:53.2 | i'll be back on Monday |
| 0:54.5 | or Monday morning with the video to Sunday night with the podcast. So stay tuned for that. And |
| 1:00.0 | you know, we know what's coming up. The uniforms are in what, April 15th. So, you know, there's not a |
| 1:05.7 | whole lot of more to say about that because I think we'll all know when it comes and I do they clearly are leaning |
| 1:12.1 | into the past with that with the look and what they do with like a spear or |

| 1:55.2 | Dan Quinn at the league meeting in Arizona, I had a little one-on-one with him. And one of the big |
| 2:00.6 | things I talked about was this, |
| 2:02.3 | and why that's important and how they see this unfolding. |
| 2:06.7 | And it is important because the more you can do, the better off you are. |
| 2:10.6 | And as he said, it gives them more, having more, versatility gives you more options for |
| 2:15.8 | pass rush packages, and I think that's a big key but |
