You can go listen to the podcast wherever you get your podcast, all good stuff and as you can see i'm joined by bram whineside the voice of the commanders and you know i was talking to bram just now like almost had a first magical finish for you this year bram so got to be a little bit weird i. You did say you got the trail on Burke's one at least. Catch of the year in the NFL. Yeah. That was pretty amazing. And considering the way the season is gone, I'll take it. You know, I'll take it. We had a good, that was a good night. I know there's no silver linings, but it felt like there

1:10.8

were some silver linings the other night. Well, let's, we, we can get to that too. And I, I want to get into like, Dan Quinn as the coordinator, young guys versus some of the vets as far as playing it and Jane Daniels, et cetera. But I don't know that there's really anything more to talk about with Jayden, he's either going to come back this week or not.

1:26.6

But silver linings for you were like, what were two or three that you that you plucked away from that game well i mean just number one i mean their record is what it is and you know they we want to see that the locker room has stayed together and they're going to stay in the fight and the brotherhood is there and you know honestly i don't know what your take was on locker room, but like it was down because they lost, but it was more upbeat because of the way I think

1:48.3

things went down. And so I was like kind of appreciative of that. They had some great moments.

1:55.2

They stayed in it. They came back. They never laid down for that team. Came back multiple times.

2:00.5

You know, I think that was a really good sign. The offensive line, which I think we could probably spend a lot of time talking about, is really starting to come together now. And I think that that's a positive. I was hoping it would be a strength of this team, and maybe we'll see it be that way for the final third of the season. And the defense, as like Dan Quinn said,

2:18.3

a couple weeks ago, it needed to be level set and it's level set. And there actually were a couple of adjustments that really stood out to me in some key moments where they made some big plays. Like, they're missing too many people. They don't have enough prominent playmakers. I think to flip a switch and become really good, but they're at least competitive and effective.

2:36.0

They're not getting run over and they're not a sieve.

2:37.6

And I. enough prominent playmakers, I think, to flip a switch and become really good, but they're at least

2:34.7

competitive and effective. They're not getting run over and they're not a sieve. And I think like,

2:38.7

that's all very positive that's coming out of this. I think you bring up a good point about the

2:43.0

locker room because it almost felt like nobody is happy with losing. You start right there.

2:51.4

But when some of those other games, it was like, what the hell is going on?

2:56.3

This game was at least a, you know, I think they felt like maybe they're getting back to who they were and who they thought they would be.

3:05.5

I think we're getting closer to that,

3:11.7

which is why I think, like, it was obviously after any loss,
