00:10 I think they're gonna get what they bargained for.
00:19 I think it's gonna be a good situation this year.
00:23 I think we're gonna have a lot of production.
00:24 I think we're gonna have a lot of cohesion in our room.
00:27 And I think, I mean, the sky's the limit for us,
00:30 especially with Shane calling the plays.
00:32 >> Well, I saw it coming.
00:32 I mean, meeting the guy my rookie year, even at the combine.
00:36 I got a good sense of him.
00:37 He's like a machine, he's like a computer almost,
00:39 just the way he processes information and the way he relates it to us as players.
00:43 I mean, I couldn't say enough about Shane.
00:45 Obviously, coming to Chicago, he's a big reason for that as well.
00:48 >> I was a young rookie.
00:49 He was a pusher, but he was also a great teacher, a great mentor, and
00:54 obviously a coach.
00:56 And just from my developmental standpoint, he was pivotal in that.
01:00 And even now year eight, I mean, I don't see that stopping me.
01:02 >> Unpredictability.
01:03 >> Really, he's really just done great things with the pieces that he's had.
01:07 Even when we had Cooper Cub, Robert Woods, and those surrounding cast in LA.
01:13 It was good to see what he did with that.
01:14 And then in Seattle, you implement DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Russell Wilson, etc,
01:18 etc.
01:19 And it's just standing back watching how he does things.
01:22 I mean, I'm excited to see what he does here.
01:24 Loaded with talent.
01:26 Just production has to follow in this business.
01:28 As you know, everybody's talented, everybody's paid.
01:30 So we're just trying to build something here special and
01:33 build off what you guys did last year, what they did last year.
