1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,040
Speaker 1: Were you pleased with the defenses, energy, effort, and stamina.

2
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:08,480
Speaker 1: Did seem like down the end of the game. Maybe

3
00:00:08,480 --> 00:00:10,400
Speaker 1: you guys weren't as effective up front as you have

4
00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:12,760
Speaker 1: been at the beginning, but it did seem like you

5
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: created a lot of pressure early and gave Ben some problems. Um, honestly, absolutely,

6
00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:21,200
Speaker 1: we didn't win the game, and you know, we all

7
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:23,080
Speaker 1: feel like we could have done more. But you know,

8
00:00:23,160 --> 00:00:25,000
Speaker 1: it was it was promising to see that. You know,

9
00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 1: we didn't quit, We didn't give up or anything like that.

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: So I mean, I mean it's obviously obviously was tough,

11
00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:34,120
Speaker 1: but I mean the morale is still here. You know,

12
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,159
Speaker 1: it's just one game, and you know this, we just

13
00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:38,120
Speaker 1: have to move on from there and get better from there.

14
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: Long practice today, man, you are guest? Uh No, I

15
00:00:42,040 --> 00:00:47,880
Speaker 1: just finished with a little lift. Thanks man Again, Hey

16
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 1: dex Curious what's more satisfying for you to get a

17
00:00:51,080 --> 00:00:52,760
Speaker 1: sack or to make a play like you did on

18
00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:55,880
Speaker 1: that screen pass the other night. Uh, you know, they're

19
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:57,800
Speaker 1: all big plays. I like, you know, I like making

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:02,000
Speaker 1: big plays, so um, you know it, honestly, probably the

21
00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: screen because I looked I looked a little more athletic

22
00:01:04,680 --> 00:01:07,959
Speaker 1: right there that I mean, you know, you know, just

23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,080
Speaker 1: trying to do things to help the team win. Take

24
00:01:11,160 --> 00:01:12,640
Speaker 1: me through that. What happens on a screen there in

25
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 1: your head because obviously I think Leonard was talking about

26
00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:16,840
Speaker 1: this probably spl second we realized I got in. This

27
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:19,160
Speaker 1: is great, but this was like too easy just across

28
00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 1: your mind with screens like uh, you you're rushing and

29
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: no one touches you pretty much, and I'm like, that's

30
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,319
Speaker 1: that's not right. And I saw the running back trying

31
00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:29,679
Speaker 1: to slip by my face, so I just redirected and

32
00:01:29,840 --> 00:01:32,520
Speaker 1: you know, just trying to make a play on the ball,

33
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:39,360
Speaker 1: but I end up grabbing his jersey. Thanks Tom Rock THANXKTS.

34
00:01:39,400 --> 00:01:41,400
Speaker 1: We were talking to Leonard yesterday. He said, you're like

35
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:48,720
Speaker 1: his fifth or sixth best friend on the team. Best friend? Um,

36
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: what does that? You know that that's nice? But does

37
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:54,520
Speaker 1: that translate into anything on the field when you when

38
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 1: you guys are there together, it definitely does. Um, just

39
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: the silent communication we can have, you know, and don't

40
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,560
Speaker 1: get offensive line any tips, a little things like that,

41
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: or just eye contact or just you know, feeling if I,

42
00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,440
Speaker 1: you know, I over commit to a move he can

43
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: make up for or something like that. Um, you know

44
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,280
Speaker 1: you actually that's kind of with everybody on the D line. Honestly,

45
00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 1: you y'all we all feeling that that gat you know,

46
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,200
Speaker 1: if somebody messes up the next person there to kind

47
00:02:19,200 --> 00:02:21,280
Speaker 1: of make the player helip out in a in a sentence,

48
00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:23,560
Speaker 1: how would you How did you and Leonard hit it

49
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 1: off right away? Um? Uh, funny story I was. I

50
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 1: used to watch him when I was in high school,

51
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:33,120
Speaker 1: when he was in college. I tell him that all

52
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 1: the time. Him like when I say that, but so

53
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 1: I kind of we kind of just joke about I

54
00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,280
Speaker 1: kind of joke about that a little bit. But honestly

55
00:02:41,320 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: I respect him as a person and you know who

56
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,600
Speaker 1: he is and the kind of you know, the kind

57
00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 1: of energy he brings to the D line room. You

58
00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: played like I think it was like, you know a

59
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:55,000
Speaker 1: little under of the snaps. How much more you think

60
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: you can handle it? What? What? What did you feel

61
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,200
Speaker 1: like after the game and you think that's gonna go up?

62
00:02:59,560 --> 00:03:01,360
Speaker 1: I see and goes along. And that's because it was

63
00:03:01,400 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: week one or you think that's going to be kind

64
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: to be your role. Honestly, the rotation, you know, coaches

65
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:09,280
Speaker 1: did a good job keeping us fresh, moving us in

66
00:03:09,280 --> 00:03:11,640
Speaker 1: and out. We're still able to you know, get a

67
00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:14,280
Speaker 1: feel for the game, you know, make plays and and

68
00:03:14,320 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 1: be fresh at the same time. You know, this week,

69
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,400
Speaker 1: I'm feeling good for a week too. You know, everybody's

70
00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: you know, didn't get as many rests as we did before,

71
00:03:22,440 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: but we all fresh and feel ready to go and

72
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 1: energist and and just honestly, it was a good rotation.

73
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:32,520
Speaker 1: You feel like you can handle more of them, of course,

74
00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: I mean still perform. I mean, of course you can have.

75
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 1: I'm go say I can handle more. I mean that's

76
00:03:38,440 --> 00:03:40,920
Speaker 1: just that's who I am. Um, you know, a competitor,

77
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,920
Speaker 1: and I'd like to compete. Hey, Dex, the defensive line

78
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,640
Speaker 1: has a lot of high draft picks, has a lot

79
00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:50,040
Speaker 1: of high paid guys on it, a lot of resources.

80
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 1: Your secondary has had a lot of moving pieces, a

81
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,080
Speaker 1: lot of different guys. Logan's knew like Yadam is new.

82
00:03:57,360 --> 00:03:59,320
Speaker 1: Do you guys up front feel a little like you

83
00:03:59,400 --> 00:04:01,640
Speaker 1: have to carry a load here early in the season

84
00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,320
Speaker 1: For those guys, I'm set since we since the end

85
00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 1: of the season is were gonna We're gonna dictate the

86
00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: speed of the game. We're gonna dictate. You know, we're

87
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 1: gonna take charge of everything. Um, you know, we we

88
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,159
Speaker 1: can't make too many like we can't make too many

89
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,320
Speaker 1: sacks or anything. If they're not covering, they can't cover

90
00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 1: if we're not getting pressure. Pretty much, so at all,

91
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:26,279
Speaker 1: CO and coincide with each other, and you know they

92
00:04:26,279 --> 00:04:29,159
Speaker 1: obviously come to work every day working hard, trying to

93
00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:32,000
Speaker 1: get better, and you know we're doing the same. But honestly,

94
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: the D line, we we take on that responsibility to

95
00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:38,400
Speaker 1: to bet those guys to be the people to go

96
00:04:38,440 --> 00:04:40,000
Speaker 1: get it, you know what I mean, that's that's just

97
00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:43,200
Speaker 1: our role, is our leadership. Hey dax uh you mentioned

98
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,120
Speaker 1: you watched Leonard when you when you were in high school.

99
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,920
Speaker 1: Creus the other night when you guys reviewed the film,

100
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: do you look like the guy that you remember? Oh, Literard,

101
00:04:56,760 --> 00:05:00,480
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, it's the it's theelebration was att nice, but

102
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: mom was a little better, um now, but honestly, he

103
00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,240
Speaker 1: was like he was out there and doing this thing,

104
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,840
Speaker 1: honestly making places. You know, this year, I feel like

105
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 1: there's a lot more you know, confidence he has and

106
00:05:10,600 --> 00:05:13,800
Speaker 1: you know, just taking on that role and um, I

107
00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:16,839
Speaker 1: mean he's he came back looking better and feeling better,

108
00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 1: so it's all positive. So your your sack dance is

109
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 1: much better than his. Most definitely
