Speaker 3: a cappella, Let's do it the way we do read
Speaker 3: or let's get ready you you you give the three
Speaker 3: tow let's go in three two one oh way way
Speaker 3: way and Gerald Edmano, thank you for joining us here
Speaker 3: and put chargers as you know, and that's that's how
Speaker 3: we we give you some love on the tep down
Speaker 3: and especially when you and justin just getting into that
Speaker 3: flow and that connection table for two in the end
Speaker 3: zone that I'm not now take us through this. This
Speaker 3: has been probably as tough of a season as you've
Speaker 3: had professionally, especially given the talent on this squad that
Speaker 3: this should have could have again that should have, could have,
Speaker 3: would have stuff. But this was the year Gerald where
Speaker 3: right now the chiefs, I mean the traffic that is
Speaker 3: the AFC and it was all there for the taking.
Speaker 3: But okay, just redraw it. What are you credit all
Speaker 3: this too? And words of mentality at this point, well, it's.
Speaker 5: Tough to pinpoint something to credit, you know, our unsuccessfulness
Speaker 5: I guess, or our failures this seasons.
Speaker 6: As a whole.
Speaker 5: I would probably say just the accountability just not executing really,
Speaker 5: and I would have to say the last one will
Speaker 5: be disciplined in my personal opinion, just like you mentioned,
Speaker 5: this being one of the only seasons I've had of
Speaker 5: this nature, and you can't just you know, take it,
Speaker 5: roll with the punches, take it how it comes, and
Speaker 5: you know, just remain optimistic.
Speaker 2: Really.
Speaker 5: Obviously we had some changes from the coaching staff and
Speaker 5: you know, we're gonna see how that unfolds and who
Speaker 5: who's coming back and who's not, and business is business.
Speaker 5: But yeah, I mean, you know, it's still a professional game,
Speaker 5: and you know, we all put our heads together and
Speaker 5: we're just trying to get this last one and in
Speaker 5: a great opponent in the Chiefs and all their success
Speaker 5: they've been having. So we're gonna go out and we're
Speaker 5: gonna try to play our best game.
Speaker 4: Gerald, I love what. I don't know if you had
Speaker 4: a chance to hear Mike Bravel, the Tennessee Titans coach,
Speaker 4: when they ask him about this idea that some fans
Speaker 4: have of well, you guys have to lose so you'll
Speaker 4: get a better draft pick, you know, and he literally said,
Speaker 4: you know, I can't repeat it, you know what coach said,
Speaker 4: because nothing sucks more than to lose a game, you know,
Speaker 4: for the professional athlete, for the one that lifts of this.
Speaker 4: None of you guys are thinking in the draft pick.
Speaker 4: I mean, you guys just want to win this game.
Speaker 4: People sometimes not all, but sometimes people don't understand how
Speaker 4: much you invest in this game and how hard is
Speaker 4: to lose and to have a season like this one.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, we invest a ton of hours, ton of
Speaker 5: man hours, turn of energy and focus and mental capacity
Speaker 5: really goes mainly toward this. You know, we come in
Speaker 5: between these walls seven am, leave four or five o'clock,
Speaker 5: so and that's just at work.
Speaker 6: You know, you go home, you have the extra stuff.
Speaker 5: So a lot of people don't see the stuff that
Speaker 5: goes into a weekend and week out, and it's very
Speaker 5: frustrating when it doesn't fall for us. But that's the
Speaker 5: nature of the business. And like any other job, I mean,
Speaker 5: it's not going to be guaranteed that you're going to
Speaker 5: get the result you want. So you know, for us,
Speaker 5: it's just staying focused and putting our best foot forward,
Speaker 5: like I mentioned before.
Speaker 6: But you know, yeah, every team, every player, every.
Speaker 5: Coach invests in this business, into the plan, into the organization,
Speaker 5: into themselves day in and day out, and more times
Speaker 5: and not people fall short. You know, the Super Bowl
Speaker 5: only has one winner, yep, playoffs only have a head
Speaker 5: full of teams, and you know, so a lot of
Speaker 5: a lot of players find themselves in the situation that
Speaker 5: we're in now.
Speaker 6: So it's just a part of the part of the game. Really.
Speaker 6: You can't question it.
Speaker 5: Obviously, you go to the drawing board and try to
Speaker 5: identify the weaknesses and where things went wrong. And that's
Speaker 5: what we did each time we lost. But you know,
Speaker 5: with talent, you have to have the production that matches,
Speaker 5: and we just didn't have the production.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know what, you make a great point there
Speaker 3: is just keeping the professionalism and focus on the positives.
Speaker 3: When you can focus on the positives, take us through
Speaker 3: the positives that you're gonna gather from twenty twenty three.
Speaker 3: I don't want to focus on just you know, the
Speaker 3: things that went wrong. Let's talk about what might have
Speaker 3: gone right here. As far as individual stuff is concerned,
Speaker 3: you know, I think that we've seen some young players emerge.
Speaker 3: I like, you know, a lot of people criticize Quinton
Speaker 3: Johnson for everything that he's gone through, but you see
Speaker 3: the kid working and battling and assuming all responsibility.
Speaker 2: Yet he's still working and that mentality.
Speaker 3: I see you the way I know you and I
Speaker 3: have chat in the past where you guys have that
Speaker 3: warrior mentality, like you know what, just we say it
Speaker 3: in Spanish, just like erase it, flooshit, move on, next play,
Speaker 3: next snap. And I've seen some positives from the young
Speaker 3: players this year in the building and what's going to
Speaker 3: be in twenty twenty four.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, my experience in this season really is a was
Speaker 5: a whirlwind. I mean, obviously it's a lot of ups
Speaker 5: and downs that go into the nature, but just through
Speaker 5: the wins and losses, I did think that we took
Speaker 5: some steps on offense and on defense. I think that
Speaker 5: we put some good performances together, just ultimately didn't finish
Speaker 5: the game and where we wanted to, what we aim
Speaker 5: to and h in my own words, I mean, finishing
Speaker 5: is the is the job, you know, and if you
Speaker 5: don't finish, and that means that something went wrong along
Speaker 5: the way, where it be Monday or Tuesday, or Friday
Speaker 5: or Saturday, whether it be a detail, or whether it
Speaker 5: be just not executing or not an non ideal play
Speaker 5: call or something that just didn't fall for us. So
Speaker 5: but and to your point in Quenton and young younger
Speaker 5: player development and here, yeah, he's been fighting, he's been
Speaker 5: fighting his tail off, and you know, a lot of
Speaker 5: a lot of that pressure comes with being a high
Speaker 5: round pick. And in myself I was a higher round
Speaker 5: pick as well, so I kind of can relate to
Speaker 5: him in that facet of you know, just people having
Speaker 5: the opinion of them, or just knowing what you truly
Speaker 5: possess and then just not coming to fruition just yet.
Speaker 5: But you know, for him, it's going to be staying focused,
Speaker 5: keep working at it until it falls for you. And
Speaker 5: then when when you do get to where you think
Speaker 5: you're comfortable enough, you have to keep pushing. You know,
Speaker 5: especially in this business, it's it's not going to lighten
Speaker 5: up on you. And these fans aren't going to take
Speaker 5: it easy easily either. So whether you drop a pass
Speaker 5: or miss a block or a holding penalty, I mean,
Speaker 5: everybody's going to have an opinion on that.
Speaker 6: But we have the utmost confidence in them. And you know,
Speaker 6: I believe in the kid.
Speaker 5: I talk to him every day of practice, try to
Speaker 5: keep them up and you know, like I said before,
Speaker 5: the game's full of ups and downs, and just mentally,
Speaker 5: it's probably going to be the most hardest challenge is
Speaker 5: mentally in his profession, and you know, fighting through all
Speaker 5: the naysayers and the non believers and all the doubters
Speaker 5: that come with what we do as a profession. I
Speaker 5: think it's probably one of the most tough challenges and
Speaker 5: that and staying healthy obviously, so for him, you know,
Speaker 5: he's been pretty healthy this year. But you know, we're
Speaker 5: gonna stay on him. I'm gonna stay on him whether
Speaker 5: we're teammates or not, and just hope to see that
Speaker 5: he rises to the occasion you're in and you're out.
Speaker 4: Screat how how great everything that I've been paying a
Speaker 4: lot of attention to what Generald has been saying, and
Speaker 4: and you know, you're talking to a vet, you know,
Speaker 4: when when you know he can go into that much
Speaker 4: of detail and explaining the you know, everything that goes
Speaker 4: around you know, a football a football team. Gerald going
Speaker 4: into that experience that you have and knowing that this
Speaker 4: is a business orientated. It's a brutal business, you know,
Speaker 4: and you have to take care of yourself, number one.
Speaker 4: You have to take care of your family, of course,
Speaker 4: you know, and everybody's in the same It's so hard
Speaker 4: to get to the NFL and then to stay in
Speaker 4: this business it's even harder. So how do you see
Speaker 4: the future of this team because a lot of people
Speaker 4: see twenty twenty four now as well, this kind of
Speaker 4: is gonna be a rebuilding year for the Chargers. This
Speaker 4: is we're going to change a lot in terms of
Speaker 4: russer and salary cap. You know, it's going to force,
Speaker 4: you know, to make tough decisions. How from from your experience,
Speaker 4: from where you stand, how do you see that that future.
Speaker 5: Well, in my personal opinion, I see them obviously making
Speaker 5: changes that they've already began to make. Obviously, coaches come
Speaker 5: and go. Players come and go. That's a part of
Speaker 5: the business, whether it's rebuilding or not. And whether you
Speaker 5: have a Super Bowl winning team or whether you have
Speaker 5: a non playoff containing team, people come and go. So
Speaker 5: I think that's just the part of the inevitability that
Speaker 5: comes with this game and with this nature of life,
Speaker 5: I guess, And it is brutal, like you said, so
Speaker 5: every every focal point, every demension of it, of the livelihood,
Speaker 5: of the nature of work is going to be brutal.
Speaker 5: So I think we as players and coaches, we kind
Speaker 5: of mold ourselves to it, and we kind of sharpen
Speaker 5: ourselves to it and adjust to it over the years.
Speaker 5: And the longer you play in this business, the more
Speaker 5: you understand it. So players like Quentin or versus players
Speaker 5: like Sebastian Joe today two different comprehensions of the game,
Speaker 5: and you know, Quentin's learning as a rookie and the
Speaker 5: rest of.
Speaker 6: Us are learning as veterans.
Speaker 5: And it'll be a point time where Quintin becomes a
Speaker 5: veteran and you know he'll witness a young guy come
Speaker 5: in having his fair share challenges like we all do
Speaker 5: in this business, going from being the top outfit at
Speaker 5: the college level to going back to the bottom of
Speaker 5: the totem pole and working your way up in the.
Speaker 6: National Football League as a rookie.
Speaker 5: So it's just really one of those things in life
Speaker 5: you just have to adapt and adjust to it in
Speaker 5: the new workplace, new city, a new livelihood, really new lifestyle,
Speaker 5: and all of us are still adjusting. It's never going
Speaker 5: to be a point in time where the NFL is
Speaker 5: figured out where everybody understands it, because there's so many
Speaker 5: new rules, so many new changes, so many new things
Speaker 5: come into effect, and you know, it's just how.
Speaker 6: It goes, really yep.
Speaker 3: And and the philosophies as they evolve, and you know
Speaker 3: what mentality is coming in from a GM to a
Speaker 3: coach and what he wants to do and what kind
Speaker 3: of personnel he wants to work with all that stuff,
Speaker 3: and as broadcasters. You know, we see that tune where
Speaker 3: we try to feel that as well as you know,
Speaker 3: when we talk to you guys, when we ask you
Speaker 3: guys questions, you know, because we have to understand the
Speaker 3: way the monster does function. But the monster also gives
Speaker 3: you something back, Gerald, And let's talk about that. And
Speaker 3: this is what I want to close it out with
Speaker 3: on some positive stuff. I mean, you being in LA
Speaker 3: you know, what have you learned you talk about learning
Speaker 3: in the NFL. What have you learned culturally about being
Speaker 3: an anquelline getting to eat Arkoma dancer with our music
Speaker 3: being because you were with the Rams, then you're here
Speaker 3: with the Chargers, you got plenty of so call soaked in.
Speaker 5: There right right, right right, Yeah, I learned a lot
Speaker 5: of What if you enjoyed the most, I've enjoyed the weather,
Speaker 5: to name a few. I've enjoyed the weather for sure.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 5: The scenery, the scenery obviously is so nice from the
Speaker 5: water and the mountains, and the people, beautiful, beautiful people
Speaker 5: down at so far and just out in the city
Speaker 5: exploring restaurants, you know, a couple of stores here and there,
Speaker 5: just going out and just mingling, networking with people from
Speaker 5: the business standpoint, obviously bringing my family out here, letting
Speaker 5: them enjoy the sun and get some of the southern
Speaker 5: California lifestyle and the good eats that the city offers,
Speaker 5: and just you know, it's kind of like a it's
Speaker 5: a vacation spot for a lot of people. But when
Speaker 5: you when you live out here and you've been out
Speaker 5: here for a long time, yeah, you kind of you
Speaker 5: kind of overlook a lot of things that you kind
Speaker 5: of become spoiled to the US that California offers. You know,
Speaker 5: twenty twenty, when I was with the Rams, you know,
Speaker 5: the wildfires and all the natural disasters that were happening
Speaker 5: from earthquakes and you know, I can go on and
Speaker 5: on about it, but just things that are rocking control.
Speaker 5: You know, I got a chance to really see how
Speaker 5: the city comes together and really adapts to change, you know,
Speaker 5: from La Fire to the Sheriff's office, to the Lakers
Speaker 5: and the Rams and the Chargers and just you know,
Speaker 5: professional sports teams coming together trying to be a focal point,
Speaker 5: you know, to try to get the community and get
Speaker 5: the city out of turmoil or you know, where we
Speaker 5: were when all the mass.
Speaker 6: Shootings were happening and you know, I was.
Speaker 5: I'm fortunate enough to be able to see both sides
Speaker 5: from Orange County and living in La So to answer
Speaker 5: your question, I learned a lot just from being up
Speaker 5: and down the coast at pch and just learning North
Speaker 5: cal SoCal and even downtown.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 5: Just I'm from a I'm a city boy myself, growing
Speaker 5: up in the metropolitan area, so Los Angeles was was
Speaker 5: the best place for me. I feel like, you know,
Speaker 5: I was fortunate enough to get drafts of the rams
Speaker 5: and have some success there. But coming over and being
Speaker 5: with the charges, you know, I got a chance to see.
Speaker 6: The other side of it too.
Speaker 4: And comiva wise, what's your favorite uh, you know, food
Speaker 4: with lotting lot in flavor Hispanic flavor.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, I would have to say, uh probably shrimp,
Speaker 5: tacos ors or enchilada.
Speaker 6: I like to go to either either.
Speaker 5: I go to Javier Okay to uh Toko Madera if
Speaker 5: you guys are familiar, Yeah, tacos yeah.
