02:08helps with my confidence you know knowing the playbook more you know more into depth pop you
02:14are incredibly introspective and have a uh a sunny disposition on life that i'm envious of i'm just
02:19curious as you look back on reaching a super bowl playing in a super bowl i know it wasn't the
02:24outcome
02:24you wanted but what did it mean for you and your family to get there and and what did that
02:29game what

02:36there just to be
02:36there was amazing you know my family was you know shot you know it's a blessing to be even in
02:43this
02:43position to be playing in nfl so to make it to the super bowl man my my family was ecstatic
02:49pop it it is an unbelievable feeling you know i was fortunate to play in two and brag of the
02:55week
02:58it could be an opportunity that we could get to the same level that we got to last year except
03:04maybe potentially close out the deal what's that like going into that knowing that oh man it's
03:10amazing you know i feel like you know as a team you know we just got to come in here
03:14play
03:15complimentary football and you know i feel like uh we're gonna feed off each other uh every week i
03:20feel like we're gonna get better you know having a raise as our leader i feel like uh he's gonna
03:25steer us in the right way to come back to that where we were and do more pop is there
03:32a hangover
03:32from that super bowl loss and when you look around the locker room with the guys that were on that
03:37team
03:37last year if there if there is how have they been able to deal with it you said is there
03:43angry bird
03:43a hangover like is there feeling still from that
03:51uh i wouldn't say you know uh a hangover i mean it it definitely you know sticks with us you
03:59know uh
04:00definitely uh give us that that weight on that shoulder but i wouldn't say a hangover because you
04:06know we got to move on you know and it's a whole new year we got to get to where
04:11we were and you know
04:12try to win it how closely do you follow the negotiation with the organization and christian
04:19gonzalez and how important it is is it for you to have him on the field when you open up
04:24week one
04:25against the seahawks uh i i don't you know too much pay attention to you know the stuff like that
04:32but uh it's important for my guy to be on the field you know he's a playmaker who wouldn't want
04:39him
04:39on the field you know well he was asking if you wouldn't mind taking a pay cut
04:55well you know what he said was and this is a quote pop has that soda money now so that's
05:02what
05:11pop you you've been you've been in a position where you've played with a couple of quarterbacks
05:17what have you noticed when it comes to drake may as far as how he's grown as a leader and
05:25maybe being
05:26a little bit more vocal what what are some of the things that you see him doing differently now that
05:31he's got you know he's starting to get some of that offense under his belt some of that those
05:36years in that leadership um just you know uh orchestrating the offense you know just like he's
05:44been doing a lot you know with him just doing what he do like i would say him on the
05:51field and not
05:52having you know josh he could do it i feel like he can do it you know uh just him
05:57just how he works on
05:58this how he works in here you can see as he walk around man it's amazing to see you know
06:05he he's in
06:05that playbook i mean he's here longer than a lot of guys and maybe he well as i say he
06:11putting in
06:11that pain does he ever get mad because i've played around a lot of quarterbacks they get mad if you
06:16maybe didn't read the right coverage but it looks like he's one of those dudes that never gets mad and
06:20like yells at you does he ever have those moments you're like oh damn i must have really did
06:25something because drake is uh kind of jumping down my back a little bit no he keeps his composing
06:31you know he he'll come up to you and you know say something but it's never in like anger you
06:36know we
06:36gotta it's all about that next place all right well i know you guys what what time you guys flying
