I don't know what to say. Really. Three minutes to the biggest battle of our professional lives all comes down to today. Now either we heal as a team, we're gonna crumble inch by inch, play by play. We're finished. We're in **** right now, gentlemen. Believe me, and we can stay here and get the **** kicked out of us. We can fight our way back into the light. We can climb out of **** one inch at a time. Now, I can't do it for you. I'm too old. I look around and I see I see these young faces. And I think I mean, I made every wrong choice a middle aged man could make. I, uh I ****** away all my money. Believe it or not, I chased off anyone who's ever loved me. Ladies, gentlemen, I can't even stand the face I see in the mirror. You know, when you get old in life, things get taken from you. That's that's part of life. But you only learn that when you start losing stuff, you find out that life it's just a game of inches. So is football, because in either game, life or football margin for error is so small. I mean, 1/2 a step too late or too early, and you don't quite make it 1/2 2nd too slow or too fast and you don't quite catch. The inches we need are everywhere around us. They're in every break of the game every minute, every second. And on this team, we fight for that inch. On this team, we tear ourselves and everyone else around us to pieces for that inch. We claws with our fingernails for that inch because we know when we add up all those inches, that's gonna make the ******* difference between winning and losing between living and dying. I'll tell you this in any fight, it's the gang who's willing to die. Who's gonna win that inch? Andi, I know if I'm gonna have any life anymore, it's because I'm still winning toe fight and die for that inch because that's what living is six inches in front of your face. Now I can't make you do it. You gotta look at the guy next to you. Look into his eyes. No, I think you're gonna see a guy who go that you're gonna see a guy who will sacrifice himself for this team because he knows when it comes down to it. You're gonna do the same for him. That's a team, gentlemen. And either we heal. Now, as a team, we will die as individuals. That's football, guys. That's old. It is now, what you gonna do?
