11:40на
11:41Q are you playing
11:42To the get to me in the
12:04game
12:06You know local
12:08Abebe
12:10Субтитры сделал DimaTorzok
12:44The UFL is brought to you by Buffalo Wild Wings
12:47Try the pick six meal for two for $19.99
12:54And back to the action
12:55Hey Cole, what do you think the play call is here on third and short?
12:59Actually talked to officer coordinator AJ Smith about that during the break
13:02He tells me they're going bootleg here
13:04Looking for the back out of the backfield initially as the first read
13:08So see if they can get a little outside zone fake then go to the back
13:16There's the bootleg
13:17The completion this time
13:19Darby and Howard hangs on to the football
13:22They'll move the chain turn making the tackle
13:24On the five yard pickup
13:25I like the play call not only because it worked but also
13:29The risk of a negative play is a lot less when you're moving the quarterback out of the pocket
13:34Because again, they would have had to go for it on fourth down if he'd taken a sack
13:38Silver's fires incomplete
13:40No flag on the play
13:42The pass appeared to be behind his intended receiver McBride
13:46But finally there to break it up hey, ronnie
13:49I'll just throw in a lot of my conversation with brandon silver's quarterback for the battle Hawks before the game
13:53was what?
13:54What route was D.C. going to jump?
13:57What route were they going to try to be aggressive with?
13:59What were they going to lay off?
14:00So it could be an indicator there of maybe a double move something else that this offense comes back to
14:04to try to take advantage of aggressive D.P. played there
14:06I like it Cole
14:08D.C. has played a lot more too high safety without press coverage on the outside
14:13And there's another incompletion out to the sideline McBride again the intended receiver
14:19Silver's getting up off his wallet so quickly third and long coming up trips left
14:24Okay
14:25All right, hum to trips left lion dog hum to trips left lion dog
14:31We're in yellow zone
14:32Hum to trips left lion dog
14:34You can hear the reminder we're in yellow zone
14:37If they gain two yards they're going to have to kick a 59-yard field goal
14:41You don't want that we don't want it to be 60 or close enough
14:44I need to go for the fourth body lion is a draw so should be trying to run the ball
14:48here
14:48There's the draw handoff
14:51And a nice run spirited run by
14:55Matulas
14:56Picks up four on the play three and a half
14:58So now you're in a situation because of that game
15:01You're kicking a 57-yard field goal for three points
15:04Whereas if you just taken a knee not that it's part of the strategy, but if if they had gotten
15:09no gain
15:38It's a field goal. That's a few few yards longer
15:39It's just from the end out of Missouri
15:42March cinnamon warmups he was coming up just a little bit short from 60 yards
15:47Line drive
15:49Is good drills it with room to spare
15:56So after two field goals, it's a
15:59Four to three game here in this DC St. Louis rematch a last year's semi final championship game
16:16Субтитры сделал D.C.
16:37He's getting past the 50-yard line.
16:38That thing's changed now a lot.
16:40So, yeah, I like what we're doing right now.
16:42Ty Scott on offense.
16:43He had an explosive play.
16:44How has his camp been, and what are your expectations for him the rest of the season as well?
16:48Yeah, that was one of the big reasons why we wanted to bring him back and protect him, man.
16:53The guy can take the top off.
16:54He's a big playability guy for us.
16:56He's done it throughout the career that we've been here.
16:58Showed it this first half so far, and need more of it.
17:01Thanks, Coach.
17:02Yeah, appreciate it.
17:03Yeah, there's Ty Scott, third year with the defenders.
17:05Here's the kickoff return.
17:07Balladay right up the middle, and a good return out near the 34-35-yard line.
17:13Took it back 27 yards.
17:15It'll be first and 10 from there.
17:16But we listened to Coach Harris a moment ago there with Harry.
17:18He talked about the familiarity and continuity being maybe the biggest asset for this defenders team
17:25that's defending their championship.
17:27In a league where there's been so much turnover coaching-wise and player-wise throughout the league,
17:33D.C. has their head coach, offensive, defensive coordinators all back,
17:37and their quarterback from a team that won a championship.
17:39That continuity is a big strength, especially early in the year with communication on this D.C. defenders team.
17:50From the 34, first and 10, going to be Deion Jackson.
17:54Put it on the ground.
17:55It's loose.
17:56St. Louis says they have it.
17:59And off the turnover, it'll be first and 10 for the Battle Hawks.
18:08Jordan Mosley making the recovery.
18:17He's very close to being down, Mark.
18:19Let's see if we can get a look.
18:20It's a really nice job, Deion Jackson, bouncing with a run-through at linebacker.
18:24And then, yeah, that elbow clearly down on the ground when the ball pops out.
18:28Let's check with Mike Ferreira.
18:30Mike, did you see it the same way?
18:32Yeah, we're looking at this just like you are, and I'm talking to the crew.
18:35That elbow is down before the ball pops out, and he was touched before he got to that ground.
18:41So we're going to reverse this, put the ball at the 36-yard line.
18:46It's going to be second down.
18:48Second down and what to go.
18:49Pretty defensive.
18:50This line of the game.
18:54The chains were moved.
18:55We're ready to go back.
18:57Can someone tell me where the previous spot was?
19:00Previous spot's 34.
19:03All right, so after further review, after further review, the runner was down by contact.
19:07Second down, D.C. at the 36-yard line.
19:11After further review, the runner was down by contact.
19:14It's D.C. Ball's second down.
19:15So the defenders will retain possession of the football.
19:18First and 10 from the 36.
19:20The elbow clearly down.
19:22Contact was made.
19:24Ball coming out in the aftermath.
19:26Mike Ferreira not only answering our questions, but also administrating all the things that need
19:31to be a communicator.
19:32The best.
19:33On the job.
19:34Multitask.
19:36Second and eight.
19:39Tomu out of the shotgun.
19:45A little movement on the right side of that offensive line.
19:49Look like Tarquin.
19:50Offense, number 56.
19:52Five-yard penalty.
19:53Second down.
19:55Ian Branch on the left side.
19:58So they'll move it back five yards.
19:59Back to the 31.
20:02Mark, I will say this.
20:03When you see Joy Tomu at the quarterback position, checking at the line of scrimmage,
20:07that's the luxury of having a quarterback that has been in the system for the last four years.
20:11Offensive coordinator Frank Kice, he's going to give them that free range to be able to check things
20:15at the line of scrimmage to put the offense into the best play possible.
20:19Let's see what the play is here.
20:21Right down the seam, down the middle of the field.
20:24Morris Mason Fairchild with the catch.
20:27Picks up 24, and they move the sticks.
20:31Fairchild's going to go right up the middle.
20:32You get a linebacker going that way, and the nickel going that way,
20:35and Jordan Tomu just sees the space, delivers an accurate throw for an easy pitch and catch.
20:40Delivers another strike there inside the 40 to the 37-yard line.
20:45Seth Williams out of Auburn making the reception.
20:51Second and short.
20:57Defenders playing with a lot of tempo on offense.
21:01They're going to keep it on the ground this time and pick up the first down at the 32-yard
21:06line.
21:06A six-yard gain on the play.
21:09That was Jackson again.
21:11Great job cutting off the backside on that run play to allow that cutback in.
21:19Tomu pulls it out on the RPO.
21:22In a rhythm now, completes another pass.
21:24This one to Kuti, who picks up 12.
21:31That was a nice round, a Harry Douglas-type round by Kiki Kuti.
21:37Pressing the defensive back, breaking off of him, creating that separation.
21:41Lady, lady, lady!
21:50Jackson put his hat down, only made it to about the 16.
21:54Deion Jackson out of Duke University, 27-year-old out of Atlanta, picks up three on the play.
22:01Cole mentioned on that last, on the previous run, Deion Jackson's ability to get that cutback.
22:08I think that's where he's at his best.
22:10He can put his foot in the ground, get to the backside of runs, get his shoulders square.
22:15He's down a couple pounds this year, which makes him a little bit quicker.
22:19I really like the way he's looking so far.
22:21Second year with the defenders.
22:23Tomu going to be swarmed and gulped back at the 26th.
22:28Pita with another sack.
22:33There he is, the right side of your screen, just one-on-one with the tackle.
22:37Michael Tarquin pushes him back into the quarterback.
22:41And Fred Kice is pretty confident in the way that they controlled Pita in their meetings last year.
22:47By my count, that's his second sack of the day.
22:49We're not even out of the first quarter.
22:51But I think also quarterback Jordan Tomu, he has to feel that a little bit and step up in that
22:55pocket
22:56and kind of protect his offensive tackle a little bit.
23:00Third and 16.
23:03Looking downfield.
23:05Caught inside the five.
23:07Down to the two-yard line.
23:10A 24-yard gain by Seth Williams on the catch.
23:14I mean, what a throw by Jordan Tomu.
23:16This is great protection by the offensive line.
23:18But the delivery and then the ability to go up and get it by Seth Williams.
23:22Jackson on the run.
23:24Short of the end zone.
23:26Picked up a yard.
23:27It'll be second and goal.
23:28Trying to give Mason Fairchild some credit as well.
23:31A nice tip on Pita on that previous play.
23:33And he released.
23:34Looked like Tomu's going to go right to him.
23:36And then able to hit Seth Williams down the seam.
23:38It's the 10th play of the drive coming up for the defenders.
23:43Cole, it's a great point out because so often we put pass protection on just the offensive line.
23:49But little things like chips by tight ends and backs also help a ton.
23:55Jackson in the backfield.
23:57There's a flag down.
23:58Jackson trots into the end zone.
24:00But let's see if it stands.
24:02The result of the play is a score.
24:04DLF 17.
24:05St. Louis declined.
24:07Offside.
24:08Defense number 17.
24:10Penalty has declined.
24:11The result of the play is a touchdown.
24:13Touchdown stands for Deion Jackson.
24:16First one of the ball game.
24:18And the lead is 10-3 for the defending champs.
24:22D.C. went heavy.
24:24Seven offensive linemen in the game.
24:26A lot of 70 numbers in there.
24:27And a 56 in the backfield as well.
24:30They're able to power in.
24:31And now D.C. electing to go for two.
24:33The new rule is you can kick an extra point from 33 yards for a one-pointer.
24:38We saw the teams last night struggle with that a little bit.
24:41D.C. electing to go for two from the two-yard line.
24:47TAMU rolls out, trying to hit the corner into the crowd.
24:52And it's incomplete.
24:54So they fail on the two-point conversion.
24:57Seth Williams right there, number 11, the intended receiver.
25:01But the margin is at seven.
25:03After a four-point field goal from 60 yards earlier.
25:08Heck of a drive.
25:09And the touchdown.
25:10Hey, great drive right there, man.
25:13Good job.
25:13Way to convert.
25:14Look at this.
25:17We got a drive, Cam.
25:18Pick him up, man.
25:19It's a long football game.
25:21It's a long football game.
25:22I thought there was some really good rhythm by the D.C. offense.
25:24Let's go.
25:25Let's take a good drive going now.
25:26Let's go.
25:26They ran the ball well.
25:26There was some really good timely passes by Jordan TAMU.
25:33But I think the run game getting going is really going to unlock what this D.C. offense is able
25:38to do.
25:38And they certainly were able to do it on that drop.
25:431.17 to go in the opening quarter.
25:48And then Harris happy about the fact that he was able to retain all his staff coaching crew.
26:01Harris, of course, the offensive coordinator for Tennessee State with Reggie Barlow, former head coach here for the defenders.
26:12Jennings and Harris back for the kick from the 7.
26:14It's going to be Harris.
26:20Still on his feet.
26:22Momentum carrying him to about the 35-yard line.
26:2529-yard kickoff return.
26:27Let's listen in.
26:29Let's go.
26:29That's what I'm talking about.
26:30Let's respond.
26:31Hey, let's respond, though.
26:32Let's go.
26:34That's us.
26:35That's us.
26:35That's us.
26:36That's what I'm talking about.
26:37That's what I'm talking about.
26:40We needed that.
26:41That would have been good.
26:41That would have been good.
26:42That would have been good.
26:48First and 10 now for the Battle Hawks from their own 36.
26:54Ready, ready, go.
26:56Hot, hot.
26:58You're going to keep it on the ground.
26:59This is Howard.
27:03About a yard and a half on the play.
27:04Close to two.
27:06Derek Robertson making the tackle.
27:16Second and long coming up.
27:22Here's Silver saying, give me some time here.
27:25Wonder if it's a shot down the field that they're trying to take.
27:32Ready, ready, go.
27:34Jackson in motion.
27:40Silver's going to be sacked back at the 34.
27:45Sets up a third down and long.
27:47Maxwell, the first one there.
27:48Loss of eight.
27:49And it was there.
27:50You're going to get a little deep out route, a little sail route by Blake Jackson.
27:55And he's open.
27:56Brandon Silver just doesn't have enough time.
27:58That's why he was asking the offensive line for some time.
28:00You need time for that clear out to get the corner out of there so you can hit that outbreaker
28:06to the sideline.
28:08Just wasn't able to get quite enough.
28:10I think another half second he was able to deliver that ball for a big game.
28:13He was surrounded like Pharaoh's army right there.
28:15Had nowhere to go.
28:16That's going to be the end of the first quarter of play.
28:19The defenders and the Battle Hawks.
28:23A couple of teams that have battled it out fiercely in the past.
28:31So what's so unique about that third and 16 play?
28:34Here you're going to have tight end Mason Fairchild.
28:37He's going to chip on PETA before he goes out into the flat.
28:41But what I like about this, everyone doing their job.
28:44You're going to have this slot receiver, Kiki QT.
28:46He's going to run a go route.
28:47And then you're going to have this outside receiver come in and run this deep end cut.
28:51Now this go route that he's running inside, it's all about being able to hold these two defenders.
28:57Great job by Kiki QT.
28:59First down catch by Seth Williams.
29:01Great play design, but better execution by the players.
29:09And back for the start of the second quarter.
29:11Third and 16.
29:13Nice shot by Harry of commandeering one of the iPads on the sideline.
29:17How about that?
29:17That breakdown.
29:18Giving the clear out a little bit of love.
29:20It's what I would expect from an inside receiver.
29:22I'm down here talking to Kiki QT, too, about doing his job.
29:25And he's smiling ear to ear.
29:27Blitz coming.
29:29Get it out in time, but nowhere to go.
29:31Silver's dumped it off to Harris.
29:32But he was swarmed.
29:34We're going to lose a couple of yards.
29:35Joe Lewis, pardon me, Joe Wallace, making the tackle on the play.
29:40It's going to be a loss of five and time to punt.
29:43It's the first real negative drive we've seen in this game.
29:47St. Louis just not only stuck in neutral, going in reverse because of the early sack.
29:53Shannon Harris loves his defensive front.
29:55He considers that the strength of his defense with Wallace, Maxwell, Basham, Roberson up front.
30:11Down at the 28.
30:13Kuti brought down after a short gain on the 48-yard punt.
30:21First and 10 from there for Jordan Ta'amu.
30:45Coach Harris talked to us about being a little bit more engaged with the defense and the special teams this
30:52year.
30:54Remember, last year he got named head coach of the Defenders a week before the season started.
30:58Reggie Barlow took the job at Tennessee State.
31:00So he's got a thrust in there.
31:02Now he looks more comfortable in those shoes.
31:04What a great response last year.
31:06Trying to build on that success.
31:08The pass underneath complete to Moore.
31:12Brought down at about the 36, a two-yard gain on the play.
31:15And back to Coach Harris.
31:17You know, he understands as the reigning champs, they're going to get everybody's best shot.
31:21This year.
31:23And what better place to start getting used to it than right here in St. Louis.
31:29Franchise that turned out $30,000 per game last year for home game.
31:34And healthy crowd on hand here this afternoon.
31:37Despite the fact that the Cardinals are playing a little bit later today as well.
31:43Baseball team, hockey team, a big weekend here in St. Louis.
31:47We have an injured battle hawk player.
31:49That's Cameron Kelly out of San Diego State down on the field.
31:54It's loose on him on the other side of this break.
32:02Well, a moment ago, Cameron Kelly walked off the field under his own power.
32:07Good news for the battle hawks.
32:09Now let's go downstairs to Cole, standing by with Mike Rapoli.
32:13New UFL owner.
32:15Yeah, new co-owner of the UFL.
32:16We've seen a couple of things that you've changed already come to fruition.
32:20Well, number one, the challenge of the crowd.
32:22You don't really need that here, but that's been big so far for both games.
32:25I mean, I love the crowd.
32:26That's why I came here.
32:27We need to make every city, every stadium feel like this battle dome.
32:31St. Louis fans are great, but to see that first four-point field goal while being here
32:35and witnessing it is pretty awesome.
32:37And it's the decision-making that you really wanted to change.
32:40Offense, defense, special teams.
32:42You wanted to force earlier decisions, more intriguing decisions by these coaching staffs.
32:45It's all about the strategy, having coaches think about it.
32:48We've got a big play right here, big sack right now.
32:52But the exciting part is when you're in that zone 40 to 50, you have to start to think,
32:57you know, third down, do I run the ball, then pass the ball?
33:01Do I line up for a field goal?
33:02What am I thinking?
33:03And we had a 60-yard field goal and a 58-yard field goal and no punts.
33:07That's what I love.
33:08We love no punts.
33:09There are a lot of people, Mike, that are wondering why.
33:11Why did you want to get into this?
33:12What did you see?
33:13Because you've touched a lot of other things that have been very successful.
33:16What was it about this league that you saw and said, I can make it better?
33:19I saw football is king, both pro and college.
33:22Listen to our noise here.
33:23It's unbelievable.
33:25But what I love is that spring football was so close.
33:28You just need it to be a little different, a little bit more innovative,
33:30pick the right city, pick the right stadiums, and innovate like we just did.
33:34We've got a lot of excitement going on.
33:36What are you looking most forward to that maybe you haven't seen so far
33:39in the first game and a half since you've been Cologne-er?
33:42I need 35, 34 every game this year and let the home team win.
33:47There you go.
33:47Mike, I know you're excited about it.
33:49I'm excited about just the energy that you're bringing.
33:51And I talked to a couple players on the field before the game.
33:54That was kind of their sentiment is, this guy's bringing energy to this league,
33:58making noise, getting people talking, rattling cages.
34:01How much of that is a strategy of yours?
34:03It's been a strategy for 57 years of my life.
34:06If I'm not passionate, if I'm not excited about something, I just can't do it.
34:09I love football.
34:10I love sports.
34:10I love innovation.
34:12I love the fans here.
34:12I just love, I love winning.
34:14And I want this league to win.
34:16Spring football will be around for a long, long time.
34:18I think it's winning so far.
34:19I appreciate the time.
34:20Thank you, Cole.
34:20Appreciate it.
34:21Mike Rapoli used to winning.
34:23That's winning in his history and on his resume.
34:30On third and long, Ta'amu downfield in traffic.
34:34And he's picked off in the 30-yard line by Mosley.
34:38There's a flag down in the vicinity of the 32.
34:41We got a flag, Adam.
34:42We got a flag down.
34:44Adam, pass interference, number two defense.
34:48So the result of plays at interception, pass interference, defense, number two,
34:51spot foul, first down, correct?
34:54Pass interference, defense, number two.
34:58Ball replaced with the spot of the foul.
35:00And they're automatic, first down.
35:03Braylon Sanders, the intended receiver here, Roddy.
35:06And look, you're going to get pressure from both sides.
35:09Jordan Ta'amu has no choice but to just throw this ball up in the air.
35:13And because he's just really hoping down the field, he gets an interception.
35:20I didn't see the pass interference right there.
35:22It must have happened prior to that because he grabbed a little bit of jersey
35:26and tugged on it there, Roddy.
35:27But definitely one that could go either way.
35:32Any live ball action foul.
35:35As you can hear the official, any live ball action foul can be challenged.
35:39It's a phenomenal challenge by Ricky Broder.
35:41So one, we're not looking at the spot.
35:43We're looking at the actual action.
35:45We're going to look at that grab that occurred at about the 40.
35:49That's what we're going to take a look at.
35:50So I want the low angle shot that we had.
35:55Okay, I am looking at it.
35:57Adam didn't know.
35:59I just see that low shot, the television shot.
36:02Not this one.
36:04Yeah, this is the one.
36:07So there's that.
36:09There was.
36:10The hand's already off him, isn't it?
36:13The hand.
36:13Look at the right hand.
36:14It looks like he might grab some jersey.
36:17As they're showing right now, what happens to that right hand?
36:22There.
36:23Does he pull it enough?
36:25Is there significant restriction there?
36:27Does he significantly hinder the receiver's opportunity to make the catch?
36:32This is the shot.
36:35I just don't feel this is enough.
36:37I mean, understand why it's called because you've got a slight turn of the shoulder.
36:44But to me, that hand's already off at that point.
36:48We're going to reverse this and take the interference off.
36:54And we're going to go back to the previous spot.
36:56It was third.
36:57There was an interception.
36:59We had an interception.
37:00So the play was the interception.
37:01So the rolling in the field was an interception.
37:03We'll stay with the interception.
37:05Can you give us the administrative information, Mayday, where the spot is?
37:08No, no.
37:08The spot's going to be the 30.
37:10The spot's going to be the 30.
37:12Coach O'Gup.
37:14Go.
37:15Coach O'Gup.
37:15Coach O'Gup.
37:15Tell me what you saw there.
37:17Going that replay.
37:18Just saw him in the first contact.
37:19Man, that happens every play.
37:20And you can't call that.
37:23They're playing ball, man.
37:24That's what they do.
37:25I love it, Coach.
37:26Thank you.
37:27Thank you.
37:41So the interception stands after that.
37:45Boy, great insight from Mike Pereira.
37:49It's a great insight in the whole process.
37:51I mean, you can hear the referee on the sideline telling Ricky Pearl any live ball action foul
37:55can be challenged.
37:56Ricky Pearl throwing the challenge flag against the pass interference.
37:59And a game-changing call.
38:01As they're able on third down, now to get the ball back in pretty good field position, as opposed to
38:05having the punt.
38:07Ready, ready, go.
38:12Silver's back to pass blitz off the edge, and they sack him back at the 20-yard line.
38:17Sam Kidd launching in there like a missile to make the tackle.
38:21A loss of 10.
38:25Sam Kidd is just going to blitz off the edge, and you can kind of see it.
38:28He tipped it off on that initial cadence.
38:30You actually had one of the players pointing it out, but Brandon Silvers tries to spin out of it.
38:35Kidd does a nice job of swiping the legs.
38:38And bringing down Brandon Silvers.
38:40And remember on the last drive, there was an early sack, a second-down sack that pushed them back.
38:44Another sack putting them way behind the chains.
38:46This is Battle Hawks offense.
38:48Ready, ready, go.
38:51Powered in the backfield, both sides, Silvers to his left.
38:54Silvers pulls complete down to the 35-yard line.
38:58Pearson with the catch and run to game 15 back, sitting a third down.
39:05And about five to go.
39:08With Shakir Pearson, you have to honor that speed.
39:11So if you're a DB, you're kind of in no-man's land if you're playing him man-to-man.
39:14You don't want to get big deep.
39:16Great job by him.
39:17Intermediate route, understanding the coverage, and sitting down and being available for his quarterback.
39:26Ready, ready, go.
39:32Silvers surveys, pulls.
39:34A little bit high intended for Blake Jackson.
39:37So fourth and five coming up.
39:40That was a really nice job by DeAndre Baker.
39:43One of these two D.C. corners that were former first-round picks in the NFL.
39:48DeAndre Baker having played his college ball at the University of Georgia before being a first-round pick by the
39:53New York Giants.
39:54Breaking on that route with incredible closing speed.
39:57Made the throw really tough for Brandon Silvers.
40:01Ryan Sanborn is going to punt.
40:04He's had very few punts.
40:06This is the third one today.
40:08High spiral.
40:11Bounces at the 22.
40:14And nowhere to go for Cootie.
40:20Good punt by the Battle Hot.
40:22Special teams and coverage of 50 yards and all back after this.
40:30The UFL is brought to you by Progressive Insurance.
40:34Progressive makes fumbling home and auto easy.
40:39Another boisterous crowd on hand here in St. Louis for this battle between the Battle Hotts and the defenders.
40:47The defending champs.
40:49They sold over 35,000 tickets for this home opener in St. Louis.
40:58Play fake on first and ten.
41:00Incomplete.
41:01That one dropped by Ty Scott.
41:03One of their best receivers.
41:05Flex right.
41:06Flex right.
41:07Red.
41:08Double chip.
41:09Z Cleveland.
41:10Red.
41:11Double chip.
41:12Z Cleveland.
41:13Flex right.
41:14Red.
41:14Double chip.
41:15Z Cleveland.
41:16Red.
41:16Red.
41:18Here the double chip.
41:20You've got the tight end on one side.
41:21On the right side of the offense.
41:23Who's going to chip.
41:23Who's going to chip.
41:24Peter on one side.
41:26And then the back is going to chip on the other side.
41:29Trying to keep Ta'amu upright.
41:31He's been sacked four times already.
41:34And that pass dropped by Ty Scott.
41:36His second drop in a row.
41:40Ta'amu took another big hit there.
41:42In that play from Carlos Davis.
41:47He's been feeling a lot of heat.
41:49It was one of the things that Peter told us pregame.
41:51He was excited about the interior of this defensive line.
41:53Not as many anchors.
41:54A little bit more athletic.
41:56That group's been in the backfield often today.
41:58Yes, they have.
41:58I feel like, Cole, both guards have been struggling with the activity of the defensive lines.
42:06We've seen the defensive tackles really get after Jordan Ta'amu.
42:10Compete inside here.
42:13And they're going to call a timeout.
42:15Try and figure something out on third down and ten.
42:26Hey, listen up.
42:27It's still third and ten.
42:29And the call's still going to be.
42:32Y'all got it.
42:32Silver, Florida.
42:36Watch the scissors.
42:38Y'all got it.
42:39Sticks.
42:40What you want up front, Jeff?
42:42What they got up front?
42:45Yeah, let's go French.
42:46No.
42:46Sticks.
42:47Silver, Florida.
42:49Gotcha.
42:51You heard Cole mention.
42:52Play some games up front.
42:54You heard Cole mention before the timeout that Peter Dalmoye Payneau was inside, lined up against those guards.
43:02His quickness in there could really give them trouble.
43:05Let's see where he lines up.
43:06It looks like, based on where they're sort of mulling about, he's going to be inside.
43:15There he is.
43:17There he is.
43:18He's lined up on the guards.
43:21Already with a couple sacks.
43:22Thomas almost had his third one.
43:26Tomu swarmed back at the 11-yard line.
43:28That Battle Hawks defense dialing up the heat on D.C.
43:33Harris got there first, and Peter kept him company.
43:37Mark, this is child's play.
43:38I mean, look how quickly he beats the guard and is able to get to join Tomu.
43:43I mean, it's like, it's like against a bag or a cone.
43:46Tomu's got about half a second.
43:48It looked like a called quarterback draw, actually.
43:49He didn't even have a chance to get to that.
43:52Need some help on the interior.
43:55I think that's going to be job number one, is figuring out how to help these guards in pass.
43:59Well, though, we've seen Peter get pressure off the edge as well, too.
44:02Fresh back at his own 42-yard line.
44:05Just the fourth punt of the game.
44:08Timeout.
44:08Oh, whistle down on the field.
44:09St. Louis.
44:11Timeout.
44:12St. Louis.
44:13Their second.
44:14The defender's going to call in.
44:17Well, St. Louis calls timeout.
44:18Thank you.
44:21I just thought on the line, it can't allow, home.
44:24Get over here.
44:26Listen, gentlemen.
44:28Listen, we're going to run Roger up our sideline.
44:30We're going to run Roger.
44:31We're going to run out of Wolf.
44:32Come on!
