We 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:40.440 gotta make sure we get everything for the se O. 0:00:40.520 --> 0:00:43.120 You know what to say. People click and hear y'all. 0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:46.239 I think you got that coverage, and we gotta make 0:00:46.240 --> 0:00:46.880 sure people hear. 0:00:46.800 --> 0:00:48.760 You because we have some important things to talk about. 0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:51.479 We're doing Come Mad Lives. Yes, you don't know what 0:00:51.520 --> 0:00:54.360 that is. We will explain that later on. We are 0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.160 playing this or that, But more importantly. 0:00:56.760 --> 0:00:57.080 This is. 0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:01.920 Using show ever created. 0:01:03.760 --> 0:01:05.240 About the Joint Practice and brand. 0:01:05.360 --> 0:01:07.880 That is perfect because that's how we are starting to 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:10.640 talk about this joint practice and what you guys got 0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:12.920 from that Fella's first things first, our first joint practice 0:01:13.040 --> 0:01:16.800 here with this new look squad, how y'all film. 0:01:17.240 --> 0:01:19.959 So I was looking forward to this, you know, because 0:01:20.240 --> 0:01:23.560 I think, like these moments during the preseason, things are different, 0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:27.280 you know now where there's a lot less contact in 0:01:27.319 --> 0:01:30.560 practice that's been negotiated out in the collective bargaining agreement. 0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:34.000 There's a lot less days of practice. There's no longer 0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:36.559 these kind of two days. The contact is just lower. 0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:40.240 So I think you get a really good judge when 0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.080 you go out there and you do this, and it 0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:44.679 really it's one of the first times that you get 0:01:44.680 --> 0:01:47.520 to see full speed. Now, even in the joint practice 0:01:47.520 --> 0:01:50.360 today it was agreed upon no full tackling, so it 0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:54.000 still wasn't you know, football football for real, But it 0:01:54.040 --> 0:01:55.880 was the closest thing that we had to it in 0:01:55.920 --> 0:01:58.400 a controlled environment. And I think that these dates are 0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:00.560 becoming more and more and more important. I remember a 0:02:00.640 --> 0:02:02.240 year ago and we went up to do the Jets 0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:04.560 one and it poured and it just made the day 0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:07.200 kind of like a wash because the weather was so awful. 0:02:07.200 --> 0:02:10.079 It was perfect here today in Foxborough, and I think 0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:11.880 I learned a lot more about this team today than 0:02:11.880 --> 0:02:13.079 I had in the first couple of weeks camp. 0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.399 Yeah, I look forward too, because I want to see 0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:18.960 the players now go against other people. After about the 0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.079 third day of training camp, you know what the guy 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.280 across he is doing from you is doing. Offensive players 0:02:24.320 --> 0:02:26.160 know what the defensive player is doing, and vice versa. 0:02:27.000 --> 0:02:29.359 Now you're going against guys where yeah, you probably looked 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.720 at some film, but you haven't seen their tendencies all day. 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:34.720 So you know, you have to go and focus on 0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.440 your fundamentals to try to figure things out and then 0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.079 learn them, you know. 0:02:39.440 --> 0:02:40.600 And then again when you get. 0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:42.880 Two different teams going against each other after seeing their 0:02:43.040 --> 0:02:46.440 teammates throughout the you know, the competition goes up a 0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:48.880 little bit, intensity goes up a little bit, and you 0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.120 want to see who reacts to this in a certain way. 0:02:51.520 --> 0:02:53.080 And I was impressed by the team, you know, I 0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:56.400 think a lot of guys went out there and basically 0:02:56.560 --> 0:03:00.360 showed that they mean business. Also, and I guess this 0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:03.920 listen as impressed as we were last year with Jaden Daiels. 0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.480 Dude impresses me every time he steps from the field. 0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:07.240 And he did the same thing. 0:03:07.560 --> 0:03:09.640 And of course it's not easy to impress us a rookie. 0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:11.760 But he did that, and we had a strong rookie 0:03:11.800 --> 0:03:14.760 class here today getting their force joint practice. B. When 0:03:14.800 --> 0:03:17.040 you think back to your days when you were rookie 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:18.920 and having to do these type of things and having. 0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:22.320 To little fogging back then, how it wasn't too long ago. 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:24.239 But when you think about having to get that first 0:03:24.320 --> 0:03:26.519 time playing against another team, getting to touch another team, 0:03:26.600 --> 0:03:28.080 how valuable was that for you to develop? 0:03:28.120 --> 0:03:29.959 It was very valuable because you know I said that 0:03:30.080 --> 0:03:32.720 with Mony Coleman telling me about how you can't give 0:03:32.760 --> 0:03:35.440 off certain tendencies and then we will always go against 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.040 the Steelers. They had Greg Laud and Green and all 0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.800 those guys linebackers. So now I'm going one on one 0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:43.960 against them. And I think after like the third time 0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:46.000 I went Greg Lawy, I said, look, dull, you show 0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:49.120 me where you're going, and just having veteran players from 0:03:49.120 --> 0:03:51.600 the other team helping me out, and it made me 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:53.920 realize you have to pick your intensity up, you have 0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:56.200 to make sure you did things to fool them. 0:03:56.240 --> 0:03:57.920 So I learned quickly. 0:03:58.000 --> 0:04:01.000 At a young age against those guys with my own teammates, 0:04:01.240 --> 0:04:03.720 that you can't give off tendencies so yes, we watch 0:04:03.760 --> 0:04:05.720 film on the other team. You got to watch film 0:04:05.760 --> 0:04:08.840 on yourself, so you figure out what you're giving people 0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:11.040 a lot of time. Hell, we helped the other team out, 0:04:11.200 --> 0:04:13.800 you know, we come out there. I met told someone earlier, 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:16.000 I used to always look at where I was going 0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:19.800 right before the balls. Nat and Ernest Miner caught onto 0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.800 that and I had to stop doing that. So I 0:04:21.800 --> 0:04:24.280 got into the move and looking around, looking away from 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:26.120 where I was going, looking up. Sometimes I look at 0:04:26.120 --> 0:04:28.400 it so to make you not understand that I was 0:04:28.440 --> 0:04:30.640 giving off of a little signal which. 0:04:30.440 --> 0:04:32.840 I did early on and brand being somebody that's been 0:04:32.880 --> 0:04:35.320 around for a long time and seeing what this team's 0:04:35.320 --> 0:04:36.760 been able to do. And then you come here today 0:04:36.920 --> 0:04:40.000 and see this coaching staff on that field getting loud. 0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:41.680 Guys are out there early. Man, that's got to bring 0:04:41.720 --> 0:04:43.680 some pride to you as somebody that's been a diehard fan. 0:04:43.800 --> 0:04:44.000 Yeah. 0:04:44.360 --> 0:04:47.360 Like the it was extremely competitive and really chippy. 0:04:47.440 --> 0:04:48.560 You know, I'm not surprised. 0:04:49.000 --> 0:04:51.839 I'm not surprised with a Quinn team, you know, who's 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:55.880 going to be ferocious, and a Rabel team similarly, their 0:04:55.880 --> 0:04:58.520 coach got into a fight today. Like that happened today, 0:04:58.680 --> 0:05:03.120 but that was shocking. He jumped into a pile to 0:05:03.160 --> 0:05:06.240 try to break people up. Both coaches talked about this beforehand, 0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:07.960 that there was not the goal to have something like 0:05:08.000 --> 0:05:11.040 that happen, But I think you're seeing the aggression came 0:05:11.080 --> 0:05:13.039 out today. I think both teams have been waiting for 0:05:13.080 --> 0:05:14.880 something like this to happen, and they both are actually 0:05:14.880 --> 0:05:16.440 on the same page both coaches. I listened to Mike 0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:19.280 Rabel two before the practice where they both said the 0:05:19.320 --> 0:05:22.400 exact same thing about what this week is now, which 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:24.960 is I think they see it similarly. It's a total 0:05:24.960 --> 0:05:28.200 evaluation over a three day period that includes a practice 0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.320 that is going to be a lot more important for 0:05:30.360 --> 0:05:33.599 the starters or the projected starters, and a game that 0:05:33.720 --> 0:05:35.760 is to help them figure out. I think probably a 0:05:35.800 --> 0:05:38.760 little more for first year staff like the Patriots to 0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:40.839 look at this roster as a whole. I think what's 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:44.400 different about our situation in year two is I don't 0:05:44.440 --> 0:05:45.560 think like they. 0:05:45.480 --> 0:05:47.080 Got to do the evaluation with everybody. 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:50.159 But I don't feel like coming into this year, there's 0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.080 a lot of spots for young guys to win, so 0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:55.040 it's going to be a very different experience. I think 0:05:55.080 --> 0:05:56.960 this week for both of these teams. I think dan 0:05:57.000 --> 0:05:59.200 quinnin company were in a very similar position than Mike 0:05:59.279 --> 0:06:01.400 Rabel was a year year ago when they were looking 0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:03.360 at this roster really with fresh eyes and trying to 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:05.800 figure out who are our people that are the commanders. 0:06:06.080 --> 0:06:08.880 I feel like in a year we have made strides 0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:11.080 with our roster that I think we know who those 0:06:11.080 --> 0:06:14.680 people are. And this is about finding out who the 0:06:14.880 --> 0:06:16.960 guys that you can work with for the future future, 0:06:17.000 --> 0:06:19.000 not the immediate future, but the future future is going 0:06:19.040 --> 0:06:19.880 to be Friday Night. 0:06:19.760 --> 0:06:21.560 And I think that's what makes preseasons so valuable. 0:06:21.600 --> 0:06:22.840 Right Like, we know we're not going to see a 0:06:22.880 --> 0:06:24.760 lot of our starters out there, and we shouldn't, but 0:06:25.320 --> 0:06:27.440 the depth on this team, the amount of guys that 0:06:27.480 --> 0:06:30.240 we have, we have guys fighting for a job that 0:06:30.279 --> 0:06:32.680 could be starters on other teams. That's got to be 0:06:32.680 --> 0:06:34.000 a good problem to have being it's a good. 0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.880 Problem to have for us and also those guys that 0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.800 are in those positions. As Brahm stated, you know, there's 0:06:38.800 --> 0:06:40.680 not a lot of spots on this team, but they 0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:42.920 have thirty one other teams out there, and when you 0:06:42.960 --> 0:06:44.720 get that chance to go out there and you have 0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:46.680 to get a chance to play on film, and you're 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:48.880 putting something on film, you want to put good, good 0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:51.240 play out there because other teams are going to be 0:06:51.279 --> 0:06:53.919 looking for this team because they understand the type of 0:06:53.920 --> 0:06:56.760 staff that dan Quinn has put together. They understand the 0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:58.880 type of coach he is. So guys that might have 0:06:58.960 --> 0:07:01.200 been through this training camp ready to play some football. 0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:03.000 So if they don't make it here, they can make 0:07:03.000 --> 0:07:05.240 it somewhere else. Yes, you know, I think guys going 0:07:05.240 --> 0:07:07.520 to training camp all the time they get they focused 0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:09.880 on just like tunnel vision on just the team you're 0:07:09.920 --> 0:07:10.320 dealing with. 0:07:10.560 --> 0:07:11.680 The other teams are looking too. 0:07:11.800 --> 0:07:13.600 Yeah, I think there's going to be at the end 0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:17.440 of the summer five to eight players that could make 0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:20.920 other rosters that just there wasn't room for them. Yea here, 0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:22.800 And that's really a difference from year one to year 0:07:22.840 --> 0:07:23.600 two at this roster. 0:07:23.840 --> 0:07:25.960 What a huge difference it is and brand when you 0:07:26.000 --> 0:07:29.440 look at our defense on that field today made some 0:07:29.520 --> 0:07:30.120 big plays. 0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:30.320 Man. 0:07:30.360 --> 0:07:33.640 We heard Mikey Sanderso get an amazing interception and just 0:07:33.680 --> 0:07:36.200 look good him being a mask guy being home. We 0:07:36.240 --> 0:07:38.120 look at those year two guys, you got to see 0:07:38.160 --> 0:07:40.000 him at training camp. Our job is to speculate, but 0:07:40.000 --> 0:07:42.720 getting to see them play against another squad, what did 0:07:42.760 --> 0:07:44.440 you see, especially from the year two guys. 0:07:44.240 --> 0:07:46.640 So like for Sarer still, he had a great interception 0:07:47.200 --> 0:07:48.880 and it was in a winning time moment, So I 0:07:48.920 --> 0:07:50.800 know they're going to be talking about that in the meetings. 0:07:50.840 --> 0:07:52.600 Like one of the biggest things from a year ago 0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:56.240 was they preached this ball as life. They did this 0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.920 in Dallas where Quinn and Witt had turnover machine defenses. 0:08:00.160 --> 0:08:02.640 They had one year where Deron Bland broke a record 0:08:02.640 --> 0:08:06.120 for pick sixes. They had another year where Trayvon Diggs 0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:09.000 had I think the most interceptions in a single season 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:12.360 or was close in Cowboy's history. They're a sack machine, 0:08:12.360 --> 0:08:14.920 turnover machine. They want to be this and I've seen 0:08:14.960 --> 0:08:17.320 this in camp so far. We have a very different 0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.160 defense this year. I think it's like they're not even 0:08:20.200 --> 0:08:22.080 really hiding it. If you go to practice every day, 0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:24.240 it's a very different defense. I don't know what they're 0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:26.600 going to show in these preseason games, but standing out 0:08:26.600 --> 0:08:29.720 there and watching them, you're seeing some of these people 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:33.839 you're talking about becoming like stars and are going to 0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:37.520 be put in positions to make plays. This corner group 0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:40.360 in general, I've described this first and second year. Marshaun 0:08:40.400 --> 0:08:43.280 Latimore is basically a second year player on this team. 0:08:43.600 --> 0:08:45.800 Here's Mike Samers still moving to a natural position where 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:47.959 they've wanted them from the get go. Trey Amos is 0:08:48.000 --> 0:08:51.880 a day one walk in the door starter. That group, 0:08:52.040 --> 0:08:55.440 along with the backups, I think gives them the promise 0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:57.880 of what they're looking for. And if they get development 0:08:57.880 --> 0:08:59.480 out of some of these other second year players like 0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:02.400 Johnny Newton, you know, others like that, I think you're 0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:05.480 gonna start seeing the fruits of this. I like I 0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:09.640 see the path to their defense being considerably better than 0:09:09.640 --> 0:09:12.840 they were, maybe not ranking wise, but in game changing 0:09:12.920 --> 0:09:14.320 plays than they were a year ago. 0:09:14.360 --> 0:09:16.520 I think what they've done now they have the ingredients 0:09:16.520 --> 0:09:18.400 to do what they want to do. You know, they 0:09:18.400 --> 0:09:20.520 were trying to do some things with guys that weren't 0:09:20.520 --> 0:09:23.200 capable of doing what they wanted. Now this year, I 0:09:23.240 --> 0:09:25.040 think they have all They have a lot of those pieces, 0:09:25.120 --> 0:09:27.600 not completely there, but they have more pieces to where 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.199 you know what, you can go out there and now 0:09:30.360 --> 0:09:32.320 you think it and you have players that know how 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:32.720 to do it. 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:34.280 They didn't have that last year. 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:36.760 You know, there's some guys out there in the secondary 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:39.280 that you think twice about what they had to do 0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:41.600 this year. I think there's a second expent. I agree 0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:44.120 with you, it's drastically different this time. 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:47.199 They're gonna trust the corners there, and you know, because 0:09:47.240 --> 0:09:48.679 of that, I think it gives them the liberty to 0:09:48.720 --> 0:09:50.719 do what they want to do up front. So I 0:09:50.960 --> 0:09:53.000 like when Joe Witt says, you're gonna see we're gonna 0:09:53.000 --> 0:09:54.679 get the production from sacks and I don't know if 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:56.800 it's gonna be one guy or eight guys, you're gonna 0:09:56.800 --> 0:09:59.120 see it happen. It's because they're going to be creative 0:09:59.200 --> 0:10:02.360 upfront and extremely aggressive at the same time. It's going 0:10:02.400 --> 0:10:04.440 to press these corners a little bit. You don't get home. 0:10:04.600 --> 0:10:07.280 There's gonna give up some plays. But what the biggest 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:09.640 difference to me is the competitive nature of that group 0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:11.720 on the outside and the hands that they have. If 0:10:11.760 --> 0:10:14.120 you've seen the interception Salmar still had today, the ones 0:10:14.120 --> 0:10:16.839 that he's had in camp, Amos is around the ball constantly. 0:10:18.000 --> 0:10:21.360 Lattimore is looking more like himself day to day to day. 0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.280 Is their primary backups would be starters on most teams 0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.840 in Ignanogny, who's had an incredible camp up to this, 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:30.520 Ty Jonathan Jones who obviously the Patriots Chandli it's been 0:10:30.559 --> 0:10:33.240 a starter for almost ten years. That might be their 0:10:33.280 --> 0:10:35.600 deepest group and I think it gives them the confidence 0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:36.400 to do what they want to do. 0:10:36.520 --> 0:10:38.800 And that group is very de Jonson Jones again a 0:10:38.840 --> 0:10:42.200 Patriot that won a Super Bowl. No, Ignogny held that 0:10:42.320 --> 0:10:45.079 Nickel spot down and we're a top three against the past, 0:10:45.160 --> 0:10:47.719 so we have death out the wazu. But another thing 0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.079 we got to see was a new guy come in, 0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:52.920 Dietrich Wise, another former Patriot of the. 0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.040 Super Bowl guy, and we were all there very early. 0:10:55.520 --> 0:10:56.640 He knew for us. 0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.560 He was there before the Pads got on that field, 0:10:59.600 --> 0:11:01.800 and we understand he is facing his former team. He 0:11:01.840 --> 0:11:04.720 was here for what almost a decade. B. What's going 0:11:04.720 --> 0:11:06.640 through a guy like wise his mind when you're at 0:11:06.679 --> 0:11:08.319 a place like this that you've been your whole career, 0:11:08.320 --> 0:11:10.199 but now you're somewhere else, but you still got things 0:11:10.240 --> 0:11:10.640 to prove well. 0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:12.200 As always, you want to prove to them that they 0:11:12.200 --> 0:11:13.439 made a mistake, and you want to prove to the 0:11:13.480 --> 0:11:14.840 team that got you that you know what you made 0:11:14.840 --> 0:11:17.920 The right decision and the thing he's done that all camp, 0:11:17.920 --> 0:11:19.640 though he's been out there early the whole time. 0:11:19.720 --> 0:11:22.440 That's just what he is. But he's a big enough. 0:11:22.240 --> 0:11:24.600 Guy and he has enough experience to where, you know, 0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:28.280 guys get to a point where they know they still 0:11:28.320 --> 0:11:30.680 have something and the team gets to a point where 0:11:30.679 --> 0:11:34.040 you know what we want more. Well, the more I'm 0:11:34.080 --> 0:11:35.400 going to show you is that you should have just 0:11:35.440 --> 0:11:37.400 gave me a little more chance. I'm going to a 0:11:37.440 --> 0:11:39.000 team that believes me, and I'm gonna show them when 0:11:39.000 --> 0:11:41.480 I'm capable of. Roldan had a great time and I 0:11:41.480 --> 0:11:43.280 think this time he's going to help them out because 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.360 you know, like Wit said earlier, it's not about one 0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.360 guy getting to the quarterback. It's about they gonna do 0:11:48.400 --> 0:11:50.319 it as a team, and he's gonna be a part 0:11:50.360 --> 0:11:50.520 of that. 0:11:50.960 --> 0:11:53.520 And fellas, before we move forward to the commad Lives, 0:11:53.760 --> 0:11:55.880 I do want to go back I love that. I'm 0:11:55.880 --> 0:11:57.600 just gonna keep saying that the com Mad Lives. I 0:11:57.640 --> 0:11:59.599 want to go back to that intensity because again, we 0:11:59.640 --> 0:12:01.839 saw some scuffles, we saw the guys get busy right 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:05.120 and be as a player. When does that intensity from 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:08.079 joint practices? Is that going to carry over into this 0:12:08.120 --> 0:12:10.240 preseason game when guys are getting chippy like that or 0:12:10.280 --> 0:12:11.240 is it just business as usual? 0:12:11.320 --> 0:12:12.640 Well, you know what, it matter not carry on to 0:12:12.679 --> 0:12:15.960 the preseason game because now you're under the NFL camera 0:12:16.000 --> 0:12:19.280 and you get fined. You know, so what it is. 0:12:19.320 --> 0:12:21.880 You know some things went down to day. Guys got 0:12:21.960 --> 0:12:24.240 into it there. It really stopped rather quickly. Normally you 0:12:24.280 --> 0:12:27.119 will see those things and they don't. They don't stop. 0:12:27.160 --> 0:12:29.360 You know, they keep being chippy with each other. You 0:12:29.360 --> 0:12:31.360 can see those coaches have like a command of it. 0:12:31.800 --> 0:12:34.080 Now when you get in front of the cameras, you 0:12:34.120 --> 0:12:38.680 can't do that because five ten, fifteen, twenty five thousand dollars. 0:12:39.080 --> 0:12:41.080 Some of these guys don't dam They damn sure don't 0:12:41.080 --> 0:12:43.880 want to give that up. And I think it also 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:46.880 shows coaches, how can the guy keep us cool? If 0:12:46.880 --> 0:12:48.400 somebody you thought I got a cheap shot on you 0:12:48.480 --> 0:12:50.040 in practice, when you're getting that game, you can't say 0:12:50.040 --> 0:12:52.160 I'm gonna get him back. You know, you don't want 0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:53.319 to do it at the wrong time, most in the 0:12:53.360 --> 0:12:56.200 opportunity time, because if you can't control yourself here, I 0:12:56.200 --> 0:12:57.959 don't think you control yourself in the regular season. 0:12:58.080 --> 0:12:59.240 I think Brian makes a really good point. 0:12:59.280 --> 0:13:00.760 And we see a lot of the in the past 0:13:00.800 --> 0:13:02.839 they just get out of hand, you know, like and 0:13:03.440 --> 0:13:05.920 not that didn't happen today. Like there were scraps and 0:13:05.920 --> 0:13:08.280 there were a couple piles, but like nothing got really. 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:09.760 In hand watch times. 0:13:10.120 --> 0:13:12.520 And I'm not surprised because I mean, like, these guys 0:13:12.559 --> 0:13:14.640 have been waiting to go get somebody else, so I'm 0:13:14.679 --> 0:13:15.880 not surprised that it happened. 0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:18.160 But I think it shows the control that both of 0:13:18.200 --> 0:13:19.240 these coaches have over their team. 0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:20.760 And I do think it's a good sign of things 0:13:20.800 --> 0:13:23.640 like because if you do allow this, I think it's 0:13:23.640 --> 0:13:26.120 a good sign of player control. Like the second you 0:13:26.200 --> 0:13:28.760 do like what Brian's talking about, it's a fifteen yard penalty. 0:13:28.840 --> 0:13:29.640 It changes the game. 0:13:29.679 --> 0:13:31.080 And you could point back to a day like this 0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:33.920 when somebody was swinging some helmet around and everything was 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:36.400 completely out of control. Both of these coaches were able 0:13:36.440 --> 0:13:38.679 to control it, so much so that Rabel jumped in 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:40.440 a pile to make sure it was controlled. But it's 0:13:40.480 --> 0:13:42.559 important to them to understand that you've got to keep 0:13:42.559 --> 0:13:44.280 your wits about yourself and this is the time of 0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:48.200 year to work on literally everything, and you know today 0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.280 a couple of cheap shots must have happened somewhere. I 0:13:50.320 --> 0:13:52.760 don't know, they'll they'll have to tell us who it was. 0:13:53.520 --> 0:13:55.679 But but everything really remained under con. 0:13:56.840 --> 0:13:58.199 That now anytime. 0:13:59.720 --> 0:14:01.320 Player Oyo t didn't want to get you back. 0:14:03.640 --> 0:14:05.040 So hell it on, o' bero. 0:14:05.160 --> 0:14:07.040 So glad you brought up the coaching because we've talked 0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:08.720 a lot about Jaye and Daniels in year two, but 0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:11.000 this is year two for dan Quinn had an historic 0:14:11.160 --> 0:14:13.160 first season, much like Jayan Daniels. What have you seen 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:15.240 from dan Quinn so far? We've been in those meetings, 0:14:15.280 --> 0:14:17.200 we've heard the presses. What have you seen from so 0:14:17.280 --> 0:14:19.400 far that makes you optimistic about what he's going to 0:14:19.480 --> 0:14:19.960 do in year two? 0:14:20.000 --> 0:14:22.000 I mean historic is an understatement because I'm you know, 0:14:22.160 --> 0:14:24.320 putting together all the stats for the game. You know, 0:14:24.360 --> 0:14:26.880 he's only there's only one other coach in Commander's history 0:14:26.880 --> 0:14:28.360 that won twelve games in a season. 0:14:28.720 --> 0:14:29.640 He's the only one to do. 0:14:29.560 --> 0:14:30.280 It in his first year. 0:14:30.360 --> 0:14:30.560 Yep. 0:14:30.920 --> 0:14:34.640 So it's a pretty like ridiculous start that he's gotten 0:14:34.680 --> 0:14:37.640 off to, especially when you take into account rookie quarterback, 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:41.360 thirty new players, whole new thing, you know, I think 0:14:41.520 --> 0:14:44.880 with Jayden, like I got to take the coach's word 0:14:44.920 --> 0:14:46.760 for it at this point. I mean, all they're doing 0:14:46.800 --> 0:14:49.000 is raving about him, you know, just raving and raving 0:14:49.040 --> 0:14:51.560 and raving about him, and you know, saying he's so 0:14:51.640 --> 0:14:53.880 far ahead of the curve. But I would say, like, 0:14:54.040 --> 0:14:55.840 until we see it. And it's not that I don't 0:14:55.840 --> 0:14:58.080 believe him. I do, but like I don't think we've 0:14:58.080 --> 0:15:00.720 seen it, and I I want to see it in 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:02.960 these in these moments, and today was a pretty good 0:15:02.960 --> 0:15:05.800 sign of it. Like the same thing with like Laramie Tunzel. 0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:09.080 If you'd watch practice up to this point, you wouldn't 0:15:09.080 --> 0:15:11.040 have like, you wouldn't have thought much of it. The 0:15:11.120 --> 0:15:14.760 lights went on today and he in thirty seconds picked 0:15:14.760 --> 0:15:17.120 somebody up and threw them over like a fence, and 0:15:17.200 --> 0:15:19.240 you're like, are we at summer Slam? 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:19.880 Like what like? 0:15:20.280 --> 0:15:21.560 And then all of a sudden, you go, oh, that's 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:22.160 who that is. 0:15:22.560 --> 0:15:24.760 So I do feel like that today was one of 0:15:24.760 --> 0:15:27.440 those the lights went on and you saw who some 0:15:27.480 --> 0:15:30.320 of these guys are, and we saw what Jaden was immediately, 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:32.680 Like they've been playing with their food a little bit 0:15:32.760 --> 0:15:35.000 in camp. Today they got to see somebody wearing a 0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:36.960 different uniform and you got it. You got a little 0:15:36.960 --> 0:15:39.400 glimpse of what they were and what they're going to be. 0:15:39.640 --> 0:15:41.280 Man, it was so great getting you that glimpse and 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:43.560 joint practices today, and it was so much fun that 0:15:43.600 --> 0:15:45.240 we want to have fun on this show because, like 0:15:45.280 --> 0:15:48.000 I've been saying, we got come mad lives. And for 0:15:48.040 --> 0:15:49.960 those that aren't as cool as us, you might know 0:15:50.040 --> 0:15:52.560 him as ad lists, we call them come Mad Lives. 0:15:52.760 --> 0:15:55.520 So I'm gonna give you, guys, I'm gonna need three adjectives. 0:15:56.000 --> 0:16:02.000
