00:00Without him, I don't think they win that game.
00:02He turned multiple first and goal from the four into the seven.
00:05First and ten into second and twelve.
00:07The one screen play that he blew up in the backfield,
00:09shooting down and making a football play, like, he was on one.
00:12It was less thinking, more playing.
00:15And they need that from him moving forward.
00:16And because we've seen it two weeks in a row,
00:18I'm confident and comfortable saying,
00:20I think this might be the normal for him.
00:22He's still going to be growing.
00:23He's still learning.
00:24But it's year two.
00:25And every NFL player runs a different race.
00:27The development is different for every single guy.
00:29Yes, he was drafted in the first round,
00:31but he was thrown right out there.
00:32There was no learning like there was for some other guys
00:34around the National Football League, even in Baltimore,
00:36when they've drafted certain safeties.
00:38I think that it's starting to come for him.
00:40And I really do think,
00:41once we start seeing some of the takeaways that we saw at Georgia,
00:44Malachi Sarks is going to be that complete football player.
00:47It starts last night with tackling against a run.
00:49Because everybody said, you know, all these missed tackles,
00:51including myself, he's got to finish tackles.
00:53He's got to finish tackles.
00:53Last night, not only was he finishing tackles,
00:55but he was holding guys for long enough to where help was able to come
00:59and finish these tackles on a guy like Bijan Robinson.
