And so there was a little bit more thinking that went into it. And so ever since I kind of transitioned over to a full-time offensive player, it's been more so, okay, like, let me get my mind kind of in a status of like really calm, but aggressive. Yeah. And so, yeah, I used to get amped up a lot, but not not anymore since I joined the offensive side of the ball primarily.

Yeah, you know, I think one of the positive things about the media is they do shed light on, you know, some people that are having some career years. And that's definitely something that I absolutely admire, not just in the running back position, but just, you know, players in general.

And I'm biased, obviously, for the running backs, but just seeing running backs have success and make a huge impact on their team and help their team out. Like Saquon, unfortunately, you know, not this week, you know, good time we ever play him. You know, I hope they run for negative yardage. Yeah. You know, but other than that, you know, they can have a great career and he's I mean, a season.

So, yeah, he's done that. And, you know, looking forward to the defense, you know, trying to put the cork in that this year. But yeah, him like Gibbs to even Derek, man, had a great year this year. So it's cool.

And even even Josh, like it's really cool to see, especially the guys that were kind of getting shuffled around and kind of, oh, I don't know if these guys can still play or if they'll make an impact. Yeah. Like the Giants, like, oh, what a joke over there letting this guy go. You know, prime Saquon. Right now you have to play him, right? I don't know who's going to pay this guy $12 million.

Well, he's going to carry your offense. So, I mean, everybody. But anyway, so don't get me started there. I'm glad he did. Yeah, I'd love to see that.

Man, I feel like there's just there's these ebbs and flows like it was just like ups and downs and it just happened to kind of be in a place where maybe it wasn't as of, you know, kind of a flourishing year for the running backs and it happened to be that we're all going to be in this kind of free agent position to.

And so there was this narrative spun out there that the devaluing of the position and, you know, do you pay these guys or not? And it just maybe just a bad timing because I feel like even especially after this year, it's really hard to justify that. Hey, running backs can't help you get to a place where you have a chance to go in.

it's not just again this is my narrative from the beginning it's not just running back it's playmakers like if you have playmakers on the team you should be compensated for being that type of impact player i don't care what position you play that was the narrative i wasn't saying hey every running back needs to be paid but the guys that were coming up on contract were those impact players and we're seeing those same impact players impact their team in a very positive direction so i'll still stand on that not again not saying every running back needs deserves top dollar because because

they don't that's just like every other position but the people that are making the biggest impact absolutely do uh you you gave us a quote from dan quinn earlier you stole it from him you said he stole it from someone else have you ever sat there like listening to a coach and being like hey i heard that somewhere like has that happened to you often um not that's like stood out that's like okay i've heard that from somewhere else um but there's some funny one-liners um out there that you'll hear every once in a while um
