Let's move over to the defense fellows because this is the one that I believe is the biggest mismatch.

0:21.2

Whereas on defense, it's a lot of, you know, they're talented, but, you know, they can, they,

0:27.2

they, you know, NFL this, NFL that, you know, size here, speed there. They just don't play well.

0:33.2

There's always that fear of, well, hopefully this isn't the game they play well, which is why starting fast is so important.

0:38.3

This side of the ball, to me, guys, is more of a mismatch.

0:41.3

But that doesn't mean that Floresate doesn't have some things that can hurt you if you don't play,

0:46.3

You know, I mean, it really is a lot about just do your job, guys.

1:28.8

Just don't, don't, this is, you play hard, be focused, just do your job, which I'm less

1:33.1

worried about now than maybe I was earlier in the year shortly after the Northern

1:40.2

In a year full of surprises, underdog wins, and the so-called experts getting it wrong,
