I've thrown firm or yards than anyone ever.

我比任何人都更堅定地扔過碼。

What thoughts go through your mind?

你的腦海中會有什麼想法？

Well, I'm proud of that, for sure.

嗯，我很自豪，肯定。

You know, I think there are a lot of things that go into that, you know, staying healthy, being available weekend and week out, playing through some things that require, you know, a little bit of grit.

你知道，我認為有很多事情，進入，你知道，保持健康，是可用的週末和周出，打通過一些事情，需要，你知道，一點點的勇氣。

And and then, you know, playing with really good players and good and, you know, not not this past year or the year before that.

然後，你知道，和真正優秀的球員一起打球，好的和，你知道，不是過去一年或者前一年。

But playing off some really good teams early in my career, midway through my career and hopefully getting back to that.

但在我職業生涯早期、中期，從一些很好的球隊身上打下來，希望能回到這個狀態。

That's what that's what excites me.

這才是讓我興奮的原因。

Being a part of a team that that's making a push this time of the year.

作為一個團隊的一員，這個時候正在發力。

Matt Ryan is here with me today, in part because of the Salute to Service Award presented by you say we will talk all about that.

馬特-瑞恩今天和我在一起，部分原因是由你頒發的 "服務禮讚獎"，我們將談一談這個問題。

But as you talk about moving forward in your career, we had a long conversation on TV this morning about Tom Brady still doing what he's doing at the age of 43.

但是，當你談到在你的職業生涯中前進時，我們今天早上在電視上進行了一次長時間的談話，關於湯姆-布雷迪在43歲的時候仍然在做他正在做的事情。

As you sit back and look at it.

當你坐在後面看的時候。

You know, I asked the question, Is that gonna become a new normal?

你知道，我問過一個問題，那會成為一種新的常態嗎？

Maybe not 43.

也許不是43。

But should we rethink what constitutes old for a player in, in, in any sport and certainly in the NFL.

但是，我們是否應該重新思考什麼是一個球員的老，在，在，在任何運動中，當然在NFL中。

How do you look at that question and of how long you think you can keep doing it at a high level?

你怎麼看這個問題，你覺得你能在高層次上堅持做多久？

Well, you know, number one, I think it takes a unique skill set, uh, to be able to play.

嗯，你知道，第一，我認為它需要一個獨特的技能集，呃，能夠發揮。

You know, Thio that age, Um, you know, Tom, Tom strength is being in the pocket, delivering the football from the pocket.

你知道，Thio那個年齡， 嗯，你知道，湯姆，湯姆的力量是在口袋裡， 提供從口袋裡的足球。

Uh, you know, he's done an incredible job of taking care of his body, his arm.

呃，你知道，他做了一個令人難以置信的工作 照顧他的身體，他的手臂。

Um, you know, But there's there's different types of players that are coming up now to and guys that are arm or dependent on on their speed and athleticism getting outside the pocket.

但現在有不同類型的球員出現在這裡，他們的手臂或依靠他們的速度和運動能力在口袋外面。

So I'll be curious to see, you know, I think the rule changes have really helped that I think protecting the quarterback and, uh, you know where we can and cannot get hit.

所以我很想看看，你知道，我認為規則的改變真的很有幫助，我認為保護四分衛，呃，你知道我們在哪裡可以和不能被擊中。

I think I think that's made a huge difference in guys being able to stay healthy and and play later into their careers.

我認為，我認為這對球員能夠保持健康和並在以後的職業生涯中發揮作用有很大的影響。

Um, but I think there's a lot of changes in the quarterback position.

嗯，但我覺得四分衛的位置有很多變化。

You know, whether or not guys they're going to be ableto, you know, play play that long with different skill sets remains to be seen because of the hit that they take.

你知道，是否或不傢伙 他們將能夠to，你知道，玩玩那麼久 與不同的技能組合仍有待觀察 因為他們採取的打擊。

It's actually a very interesting and important point.

這其實是一個非常有趣和重要的問題。

Matt Ryan has missed only three games in 13 years, so let me make this straight talk brought to you by straight talk wireless.

馬特-萊恩在13年裡只缺席了三場比賽，所以讓我來做這個由直言無線帶來的直言。

I don't expect you to have scouted quarterbacks, but I have sort of fallen in love a little bit with Mac Jones, the kid from Alabama.

我不指望你會考察四分衛 但我有點愛上了麥克・瓊斯，阿拉巴馬的孩子

And as you know, he'll be one of those whose be drafted this year.

你也知道，他將是今年被選中的人之一。

And Matt, what everyone keeps telling me is, but he can't run, and I'm old enough to remember a time when that really wasn't part of the equation.

馬特，每個人都跟我說，但他不會跑，我已經老了，還記得那個時候，那真的不是等式的一部分。

As we were analyzing quarterbacks and evaluating these guys coming in.

當我們在分析四分衛和評估這些人進來的時候。

Do you think we're entering a time in pro football where if you can't make plays and move the chains with your legs that that at some point here, there won't be a place in the game for that quarterback.

你覺得我們是否進入了一個職業橄欖球的時代 如果你不能用你的腿來打球和移動鏈子 那在某些時候，四分衛在比賽中就沒有位置了。

I don't know about that, you know, you know, part of part of what I've watched, too.

我不知道，你知道，你知道，我也看了一部分一部分。

I mean, we watched a lot of Alabama one.

我的意思是，我們看了很多阿拉巴馬的一個。

Steve Sarkeesian, former offensive coordinator for us, was coaching there.

Steve Sarkeesian，我們的前進攻協調員，曾在那裡執教。

So there's, you know, an interest in a guy that you spent a lot of time with and you're watching what they're doing.

所以，你知道，一個人的興趣 你花了很多時間與你 你看他們在做什麼。

But I also got two wide receivers from from Alabama, and, uh, all they want to talk about is Alabama football what they're watching.

但我也得到了兩個來自阿拉巴馬州的外接手，而且，呃，他們想談論的是阿拉巴馬州的橄欖球，他們在看什麼。

So I watched quite a bit of it.

所以我看了不少。

I think one of the things is, you know, you don't necessarily need to be a great runner, but you have to have the ability to extend plays and to get, you know, 468 yards when you need it.

我認為其中一件事是，你知道，你不一定要成為一個偉大的跑者，但你必須有能力延長比賽，並得到，你知道，468碼，當你需要它。

And I think you know, when I watch Mac Jones, I think one of the things is he's good enough.

我覺得你知道，當我看麥克-瓊斯的時候，我覺得其中一件事就是他足夠好。

He's not a great runner, but he's good enough and I've always felt like for myself, you know that that was that was part of how I played, you know, not a great runner but, you know, 23 times a game, you're gonna get outside the pocket, you're gonna extended play.

他不是一個偉大的跑者，但他已經足夠好了，我一直覺得對我自己來說，你知道，那是我打球的一部分，你知道，不是一個偉大的跑者，但是，你知道，一場比賽23次，你要去口袋外面，你要去延長比賽。

You're gonna pick up a first down when you need it when they're playing.

當他們比賽時，你會在你需要的時候撿到一個首攻。

Man coverage on those are the kind of things that you know.

人覆蓋上的這些都是你知道的事情。

I still think there's a place in the game for those guys.

我還是覺得這些人在遊戲裡有一席之地。

And how insufferable where Julio Jones and Calvin Ridley during that run, like, just give me a sense of eggs element, they just annihilated everybody.

而朱利奧-瓊斯和卡爾文-雷德利在那段時間是多麼的難以忍受，就像給我一種雞蛋元素的感覺，他們只是消滅了所有人。

How insufferable was that?

那是多麼令人難以忍受？

The Onley?

安利號？

Good part three.

好的第三部分。

Only good part was, you know, that they weren't covering every week because the lines were so big.

唯一好的部分是，你知道， 他們沒有覆蓋每一個星期 因為線是如此之大。

They were killing people, but they weren't covering every week, so it made it okay.

他們殺了人，但他們並不是每週都在報道，所以這也沒什麼。

It wasn't insufferable.

這不是難以忍受的。

But those guys, uh, you know, they never stop straight talk wireless.

但那些傢伙，呃，你知道，他們從來沒有停止過直言無線。

No contract, no compromise.

沒有合同，沒有妥協。

The great Matt Ryan is with me here.

偉大的馬特-萊恩和我在一起。

Okay, so let's let's talk about your future.

好吧，讓我們來談談你的未來。

Um, you know that the team sort of came to a little bit of a crossroads here with making the coaching change and the general manager change and you start thinking about is it time for a fresh start for everyone and I wondered aloud multiple times.

嗯，你知道球隊有點走到了一個十字路口，這裡的教練換了，總經理也換了，你開始思考是不是該給大家一個新的開始，我多次大聲地想。

Is it time for a fresh start?

是時候重新開始了嗎？

For Matt Ryan, you are to the point you made earlier young enough to still have, like, a complete second chapter somewhere which we've seen a lot of quarterbacks do.

對於馬特-萊恩來說，你和你之前說的一樣，足夠年輕，仍然有，比如，在某個地方有完整的第二章，我們已經看到很多四分衛這樣做。

How do you view you're that that part of your future at this stage of your career?

你如何看待你的那部分未來在你職業生涯的這個階段？

Well, I don't think you ever know how things were going to shake out moving forward.

我想你永遠不知道事情會如何發展下去。

Uh, you know, But I have the mindset now.

呃，你知道，但我現在有心態。

I love Atlanta.

我愛亞特蘭大。

I love our organization.

我愛我們的組織。

I'm fired up about the new coaching staff.

我對新的教練團隊感到很興奮。

Uh, and it's my responsibility as professional to be, you know, ready to go and and excited about that.

呃，這是我的責任 作為專業的，你知道，準備好了，去和興奮。

And I am, And I want to be here.

我是，我想在這裡。

Um, but that being said, you know, it's not all in my control what they want to do, moving forward.

嗯，但說到這裡，你知道，這不是所有在我的控制 他們想做什麼，前進。

What they view, you know, is is best for the organization I respect and get that.

他們的看法，你知道，是最好的組織，我尊重和得到。

I still think I've got a lot of tread on my tires.

我還是覺得我的輪胎還有很多胎面。

I still think I'm playing at a high level, and, uh, you know, I still think I could go for a handful more years, so I'm gonna, you know, keep my mind set on training, doing everything I can to be the best I could be and and hopefully that will be here in Atlanta for a long time.

我仍然認為我在打高水準的比賽，而且，呃，你知道，我仍然認為我可以再多打幾年，所以我會，你知道，保持我的心態，在訓練上，盡我所能做到最好，並希望這將在亞特蘭大很長一段時間。

Matt Ryan was with me here.

馬特-萊恩和我在一起

One more thing I want to ask you before we get to the program that you're involved in.

在我們討論你參與的項目之前，我還想問你一件事。

And I've had so many players talk to me over the years about the experience of of losing this game of, of losing the Super Bowl.

這些年有很多球員跟我說過 輸掉這場比賽的經歷，輸掉超級碗的經歷。

You know, no one needs me to remind them of how difficult the loss you had in this game several years ago, and I love.

你知道，不用我提醒他們，幾年前你在這場比賽中的失利有多難受，我愛。

I enjoy asking players if they ever get over that, like, like do have you?

我很喜歡問玩家，如果他們曾經得到過，比如，比如你有嗎？

Would you say you've gotten over losing the Super Bowl?

你會說你已經克服了失去超級碗的陰影嗎？

What's that four years ago?

四年前是什麼？

Now, whatever that is five years ago, would you say you've gotten over it?

現在，不管那是五年前的事，你會說你已經克服了嗎？

No.

不知道

E think I don't think I don't think that ever lead you.

我想我不認為我不認為這曾經引導你。

You know, I think there's there's scar tissue, uh, that that's always there.

你知道，我認為有... ...有疤痕組織， 呃，那是永遠存在。

But I also think, you know, it's it's like anything in life.

但我也認為，你知道，這... ...它就像生活中的任何事情。

You're better for it.

你這樣做更好。

You know you're better for the tough parts of life that you go through, and it's always kind of a notch that I'll have on my belt that I'm disappointed in the way it shook out.

你知道你會更好的生活艱難的部分，你經歷了，它總是一種我將在我的腰帶上的一個缺口，我很失望的方式搖出。

But I know for sure I'm tougher and, you know, mentally, just better for it.

但我知道，我肯定我更堅強，而且，你知道，精神上，只是更好的。

And and so, you know, I think the next time I get there I'll be able to handle the situation better than we did the first time.

所以，你知道，我想下一次我到那裡的時候，我就能比第一次更好地處理這種情況。
