If you do that, then you can build a lead.

And I think we'd all like to see what this team would look like if it looked more like that Eagles game where they were playing with a lead for most of them.

Yeah.

I mean, I think it's a big reason why a lot of players take a huge jump from year one to year two.

We sort of take for granted what these rookies go through.

And at this point, now that you're in mid-January, it's been a full 12 months of being on from starting with the draft process, which carries over from your last season of college football.

So now we're talking about it being well over... It's basically been a year and a half since these rookies reported for their last college training camp, right?

And then played their full season, depending on how long they went.

Like, in a weird way, Caleb benefited from having some off time in there because his team, their season ended early his last year at USC.

So it's not all the same.

But for these teams that play deep into the postseason, they...

They're then they go straight into draft prep.

And a lot of that becomes more of like track training for the combine rather than football.

And then they got to get ready for the pro days and then they get drafted.

And then they're literally a rookie minicamp the next weekend, you know, and the only off time they get all of that time.

is the break they get between veteran mini camp and training camp, which is basically six weeks in the middle of the summer.

So it's a lot and it's, it's a real thing.

Then they play more games their first year in the NFL than they've ever played in their life because it's the NFL and you play more games.

Now you're also in the playoffs.

So is Declan Doyle put it yesterday.
