1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,320
Speaker 1: Win a lot of games here right now. How you

2
00:00:02,360 --> 00:00:04,160
Speaker 1: say the locker room is feeling right now about everything?

3
00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:06,680
Speaker 2: I mean, I think we're feeling pretty good. Five and two,

4
00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:08,639
Speaker 2: top of the division for right now. I mean, this

5
00:00:08,720 --> 00:00:11,560
Speaker 2: is the best start that I've had since being here. So,

6
00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:14,920
Speaker 2: you know, we're finding ways to win these games. But

7
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 2: there's a ton of things to improve on on the

8
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:18,560
Speaker 2: offensive side of the ball.

9
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,800
Speaker 1: Yeah, Bo talked about practicing with an edge this week.

10
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:25,479
Speaker 2: What was that like, I think details, that's kind of

11
00:00:25,480 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 2: the Then the the thing I look at after these

12
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,400
Speaker 2: games on tape is that there's just not enough detail

13
00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:33,239
Speaker 2: work by the entire offense. You know, it takes all

14
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,559
Speaker 2: eleven of us to get these plays rolling. So I

15
00:00:36,560 --> 00:00:40,120
Speaker 2: think the detail the focus making practice a little bit

16
00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,559
Speaker 2: more stressful, making practice feel a little more game like,

17
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:44,960
Speaker 2: trying to replicate, Hey, what you're doing in practice is

18
00:00:45,159 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 2: what's going to happen in a game, So let's start

19
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:49,239
Speaker 2: practicing as such. So I think that's been a big

20
00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: part of our improvement this week that we're trying to make.

21
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:53,319
Speaker 1: I mean, one of the things that I think every

22
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,160
Speaker 1: team wants to be able to do is to close games.

23
00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:58,120
Speaker 1: And so you guys finding ways to close three straight games,

24
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: coming back and winning those games. That has to matter

25
00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:01,440
Speaker 1: for something, right.

26
00:01:01,440 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 2: Yeah, being able to close the games is important. I

27
00:01:03,800 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 2: mean we always say it. The only time you can

28
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,520
Speaker 2: win a game is in the fourth quarter. So you know,

29
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:10,679
Speaker 2: we had a couple of games early where we weren't

30
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,680
Speaker 2: able to close Colts and Chargers, and so that was

31
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,160
Speaker 2: an emphasis is be getting better at closing games. And

32
00:01:16,200 --> 00:01:18,400
Speaker 2: now it's about starting fasts that way, we don't have

33
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:22,039
Speaker 2: to you know, have to have this crazy comeback in

34
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,520
Speaker 2: order to win a game. So there's things we're trying

35
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 2: to piece together as we continue to find our identity.

36
00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:30,840
Speaker 1: How would you feel about halfway through the season where

37
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:32,119
Speaker 1: the run game is at right now?

38
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,280
Speaker 2: I would say decent, but not good enough. There's a

39
00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: lot of yards that are consistently being left out there,

40
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:43,040
Speaker 2: and that's where the detail work really is going to

41
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 2: pay dividends. You know, JK has been doing a great job,

42
00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,040
Speaker 2: and I think the relationship that we've built with O

43
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,840
Speaker 2: Line and running back room is going to just continue

44
00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: to help us achieve our goals in the rushing game.

45
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,960
Speaker 1: Was there a point in this last game against the

46
00:01:57,000 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 1: Giants where you guys on offense sort of felt the

47
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:00,800
Speaker 1: momentum for you.

48
00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:03,760
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not as the offensive lineman. It was

49
00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:05,840
Speaker 2: just kind of put your head down and work and grind, like,

50
00:02:06,720 --> 00:02:09,240
Speaker 2: don't don't worry about the scoreboard, just take it one

51
00:02:09,240 --> 00:02:11,520
Speaker 2: play at a time. I mean, those are cliches, but

52
00:02:12,160 --> 00:02:13,639
Speaker 2: you know, when you're down on that many points and

53
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,200
Speaker 2: you know you got to throw the ball against a

54
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,200
Speaker 2: really good rushing front, you really got to take it

55
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 2: one play at a time and not get too overwhelmed

56
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:21,080
Speaker 2: or whatever by the moment. And I think we've done

57
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,880
Speaker 2: a really good job in the old line of taking

58
00:02:22,880 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: care of those moments and you know, still playing our

59
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,800
Speaker 2: best football and giving ourselves a chance.

60
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,760
Speaker 1: The Dallas defensive front certainly a lot of talent there.

61
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: You know Kenny Clark, you faced him before. What's that

62
00:02:33,520 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: matchup going to be?

63
00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 2: Like? Yeah, I mean he's a strong, vet, smart. I

64
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:39,520
Speaker 2: have a ton of respect for him. I mean he's

65
00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:42,320
Speaker 2: I think this is like year nine or ten for him.

66
00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 2: So I mean for him to still be playing at an

67
00:02:44,000 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 2: elite level, you know, as a nose tackle and in

68
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 2: this in this league is incredible. So it'll be quite

69
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:54,239
Speaker 2: the quite the matchup, and you know it'll be another

70
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: one of those weeks where it's a grind, it's is

71
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: what it.

72
00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,639
Speaker 1: Is, all right, and last one And I feel like

73
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:00,680
Speaker 1: this is a bit of a cliche kind of conversation, but

74
00:03:00,919 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 1: kind of has to be asked. Do you guys feel

75
00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:04,800
Speaker 1: a pressure to keep pace when you know the opposing

76
00:03:04,800 --> 00:03:07,919
Speaker 1: team's offense is performing at the level that the Dallas Cowboys

77
00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:08,480
Speaker 1: offense is.

78
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:11,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's something to be aware of how

79
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: well they're playing, how many points that they're scoring, and

80
00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 2: you know they're doing it early. And so that's something

81
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,560
Speaker 2: that as part of our emphasis this week of being

82
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,200
Speaker 2: able to start fast and not necessarily of like being

83
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:25,880
Speaker 2: worried about like we needing to keep up. I think

84
00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,520
Speaker 2: it's more so about doing our job and getting the

85
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,080
Speaker 2: points that we know we can score. We're executing at

86
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:34,400
Speaker 2: a high level, so you know it's going to be

87
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 2: a really good game. It's going to be a battle,

88
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:39,240
Speaker 2: and like I said, you can only win this game

89
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,760
Speaker 2: in the fourth. Thanks Quinn, First, I appreciate you, Manank

90
00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:42,320
Speaker 2: you
