1 00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:16,120 Speaker 1: Yo, what's going on? Welcome to US Bank Stadium. After 2 00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:19,759 Speaker 1: the Detroit Lions beat the Minnesota Vikings thirty one twenty nine, 3 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,880 Speaker 1: and the Detroit Lions have claimed first place in the 4 00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,759 Speaker 1: NFC North. They both have five and one records, but 5 00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:29,880 Speaker 1: the Lions through six obviously of that tiebreaker. It was 6 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: a strange game today. It was a super exciting game today, 7 00:00:33,720 --> 00:00:36,760 Speaker 1: Pete versus with your Shirley Paul Allen, I say it 8 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,000 Speaker 1: was a strange game because of all those penalties in 9 00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:41,760 Speaker 1: the first half, and then there were just some nuanced 10 00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 1: related plays late for the Vikings where if on third 11 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:47,760 Speaker 1: and three they got a twenty nine to twenty eight lead, 12 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 1: Ivan Pace Junior scoops up a fumble caused by Josh 13 00:00:51,400 --> 00:00:53,800 Speaker 1: Mattelis gets into the end zone from thirty five out, 14 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,040 Speaker 1: It's like, holy cow, we haven't led for like two 15 00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:57,200 Speaker 1: hours of real lifetime. 16 00:00:57,280 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 2: We have the lead. 17 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:00,600 Speaker 1: Then there was a third and three when they got 18 00:01:00,640 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 1: the ball back. Darnold, who from whom you'll hear later, 19 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: for whatever the reason, decided to throw it one hundred 20 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: miles per hour to Jefferson on third and three by 21 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 1: the Lions sideline. Then they had to punt and that 22 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:13,720 Speaker 1: paved the way for a Lion's victory. 23 00:01:13,800 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I think the disappointing part of today, 24 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 3: you know, you got to you gotta give them credit 25 00:01:19,600 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 3: for coming back in the second half offense turning things around. 26 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,440 Speaker 3: It was just a number the number of mistakes that 27 00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:31,760 Speaker 3: were made today. And there were coverage mistakes, areas that 28 00:01:31,800 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 3: were left open and blitzing that gave Detroit a couple 29 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 3: of big touchdowns. And you know, on the offensive side, 30 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 3: a number of routes where you had two guys kind 31 00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 3: of in the same zone. It just didn't look like 32 00:01:44,920 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 3: guys are in the right place. And you know, coming 33 00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 3: out of a buy, you're very cognizant of those mistakes, 34 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 3: whether or not guys are dialed in mentally. I just 35 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 3: I just think that when they turn on the film 36 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 3: and watch this football game, they're going to have a 37 00:01:57,520 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 3: lot of things mental airs that they haven't I think 38 00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:04,760 Speaker 3: that much of all season long. And when you're playing 39 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 3: a very good football team like the Lions are, they're 40 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: gonna make you pay for their mistakes. Now, I'm not 41 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 3: taking anything away from Jamiir Gibbs and the rest of 42 00:02:12,600 --> 00:02:17,799 Speaker 3: this Lions offense. They're really good and Jared Goff very 43 00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 3: good at diagnosing what we're trying to do and finding 44 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,520 Speaker 3: where to go with the football. It's just these mistakes 45 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,040 Speaker 3: that were made allowed them to be explosive, and I 46 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:27,720 Speaker 3: think that's ultimately what cost us the game. 47 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:32,760 Speaker 1: Well, you mentioned mistakes, and Darnold through an interception, Josh 48 00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:34,959 Speaker 1: Mitchell is forced to fumble. It ended up being the 49 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: Vikings third defensive touchdown this year. Okay, but they pushed 50 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,320 Speaker 1: in the take give battle one to one. This is 51 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: the first time through twenty three games that Kevin O'Connell 52 00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: has either pushed or won the takeover the takeaway battle 53 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: and lost the game. 54 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 2: Lost the game. 55 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 1: So we pushed the take give and lost the game. 56 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,360 Speaker 1: That just it further indicates how important that is. 57 00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, and when you score on defense, you win. I 58 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:02,360 Speaker 3: need over ninety percent of football games. I mean, so 59 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,359 Speaker 3: in that when you say it's it's a weird game, 60 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:09,840 Speaker 3: that's exactly it. Statistically, you look at these numbers, I 61 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 3: mean they are almost identical. Third down conversion rate, total yards, 62 00:03:14,919 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: number of offensive plays, average game time of possession plus minus. 63 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:23,680 Speaker 3: It's it's equal across the board. So what was the difference, Well, 64 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,519 Speaker 3: you know, the difference was was was obviously it was 65 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 3: a close game, two point game, so it's a close 66 00:03:28,360 --> 00:03:30,880 Speaker 3: game obviously. But you know, as you go down that 67 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:35,360 Speaker 3: rabbit hole, the mistakes, the smaller mistakes add up right 68 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: in the drive killers, especially for us early early or 69 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:41,440 Speaker 3: in the first half. Just you know, we didn't put 70 00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: it together a good long drive almost the entire first half. 71 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,800 Speaker 3: Had we just come up with one one extra field goal, right, yeah, 72 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:50,080 Speaker 3: it would have changed the complexity. 73 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Well, that two point conversion. They're up one after the 74 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,520 Speaker 1: Pace Junior score, so they got to go for two. 75 00:03:56,640 --> 00:03:59,920 Speaker 1: Very late in the game. Darnold throws it cleat high 76 00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: to Jordan Addison. I think he was covered by one 77 00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 1: of the safeties, branch Or Joseph, but I'm not sure 78 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: if he got rid of it too soon or but 79 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: it was a low pass and man they need And. 80 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 3: Then again goes back to being ready because you know 81 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 3: the offense they weren't on the field. Defense scores so 82 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:18,440 Speaker 3: that you know they're celebrating, but at the same time, yeah, 83 00:04:18,440 --> 00:04:20,240 Speaker 3: you got to get yourself together and run a two 84 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 3: point conversion here. So again that whole that, that whole 85 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:27,480 Speaker 3: thing is this isn't this isn't as mentally sharp as 86 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 3: I've seen this team in the past. And again you 87 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:33,359 Speaker 3: you get back to the little things, and a little 88 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 3: things in a game like this matter so much, especially 89 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,120 Speaker 3: against a good team, and we just made a few 90 00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 3: too many mistakes. 91 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 1: Let's hear from Minnesota Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell. 92 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 4: Tough, hard fought football game against a really good team. 93 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 2: I thought we did a lot of good things. 94 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 4: But there's a lot of things that I think, just 95 00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:56,640 Speaker 4: collectively as a team, we can continue to improve on. 96 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 4: When you play a good football team like that, got to, 97 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: you know, find a way to limit some of the 98 00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 4: things that you know set you back, whether it's penalties 99 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 4: or communication, whatever. 100 00:05:08,720 --> 00:05:11,479 Speaker 2: It is a lot of areas we can improve on. 101 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:13,960 Speaker 4: But I'm proud of the way our guys battled came 102 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:16,640 Speaker 4: back in the second half. Was they you know, we 103 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:18,880 Speaker 4: were able to capture the lead, you know, really as 104 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 4: a team, and they you know, they were able to 105 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,520 Speaker 4: you know, get that last three there, and and you 106 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 4: know we'd love to have a chance to give Will 107 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:29,839 Speaker 4: a swing at the very end there. But a lot 108 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 4: of a lot of positives, a lot of things will 109 00:05:31,560 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 4: build off of going to be a challenging turnover this 110 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,480 Speaker 4: week from a standpoint of a short week off a 111 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:40,279 Speaker 4: physical game. Every guy in that locker room put everything 112 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 4: they had into it. So these are the moments where 113 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,760 Speaker 4: we truly find out what we're all about and look 114 00:05:46,800 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 4: forward to leading this group through it. 115 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,760 Speaker 2: To how close did you need to get before you 116 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 2: would send Will out there? 117 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:57,279 Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, my confidence in him is uh, you know, 118 00:05:57,320 --> 00:06:00,160 Speaker 4: I was, you know, thinking about sending him anyway when 119 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,560 Speaker 4: the penalty kind of marked it back. 120 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:03,200 Speaker 2: I think it would have been about a seventy three 121 00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:05,040 Speaker 2: yard field. 122 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:09,800 Speaker 4: Goal at that point, just outside his range. 123 00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 2: But yeah, I would have. I would have. 124 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 4: Absolutely hopefully gave him a swing there. That's a pretty 125 00:06:16,800 --> 00:06:20,479 Speaker 4: significant gain, especially with the play we had on trying 126 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:22,680 Speaker 4: to make sure we could get as much as possible 127 00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:27,479 Speaker 4: before potential Hill Mary chance or your last play kind 128 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 4: of chance. But the goal was I thought we were 129 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,360 Speaker 4: pretty darn close. I got to take a look at 130 00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 4: it exactly. I didn't get a great explanation, and it 131 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 4: was pretty loud as far as what they actually called, 132 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 4: but it sounded like we were either moving or not 133 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:44,640 Speaker 4: totally legal, which would have would have been phenomenal to 134 00:06:44,680 --> 00:06:46,920 Speaker 4: see we'll get a swing from what would have been 135 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:49,120 Speaker 4: probably what you know, sixty eight. 136 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:53,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, offensively, you just weren't as crisp as you had 137 00:06:53,279 --> 00:06:55,240 Speaker 2: been before the buying. If you think of buying to 138 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 2: travel had anything to do with. 139 00:06:56,560 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 4: It, well, I you know, you know, I think if 140 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:01,159 Speaker 4: you look at the course of the first five games, 141 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,240 Speaker 4: I don't know if I'd necessarily agree with that kind 142 00:07:04,240 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 4: of the previous few, previous few, uh, you know, quarters 143 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:13,160 Speaker 4: and things, and we really emphasized no self inflicteds. That's 144 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 4: really where you're you're seeing a lot of it. I mean, 145 00:07:15,160 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 4: I think we averaged over seven close to seven and 146 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,720 Speaker 4: a half of play, you know, did a lot of 147 00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 4: good things, but it's just these little self inflicteds, you know, 148 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:26,160 Speaker 4: whether it's a formation or hold or you know, pre 149 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,440 Speaker 4: snap in fraction. I got to get that stuff fixed 150 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 4: because when you're you know, trying to win at the 151 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,600 Speaker 4: level we're trying to win against anybody we play, we 152 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:37,200 Speaker 4: can't do anything to help good football teams out. 153 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:39,440 Speaker 2: And we just need to worry about. 154 00:07:39,600 --> 00:07:42,360 Speaker 4: All eleven guys executing the play both pre and post 155 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 4: snap with great detail in all three phases. And and 156 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,200 Speaker 4: I'm gonna just keep pushing this team every single day 157 00:07:49,200 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 4: to try to do that. Kevin, were you guys, Gibbs 158 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,200 Speaker 4: his eight yard touchdown, you guys just kind of caught 159 00:07:54,280 --> 00:07:57,679 Speaker 4: in the wrong defense and to think a pretty late Yeah, 160 00:07:58,120 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 4: you know, I would have to go back and look 161 00:07:59,680 --> 00:08:04,080 Speaker 4: at it. I know, third and whatever the D and 162 00:08:04,160 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 4: D was. You know, you're expecting, you know, hell of 163 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 4: a play call by them to Suneka running there. They 164 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 4: do that from time to time because Dan will be 165 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 4: aggressive on fourth down. So great play call by them, 166 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 4: and we got to figure out a way to keep 167 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:16,680 Speaker 4: them out of the end. 168 00:08:16,640 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 3: Zone, like they're bringing receivers in to kind of chip 169 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 3: on the edges. 170 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 2: Was that something you had seen them do be world 171 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 2: or was that too for them? 172 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 4: We've seen We've seen that from some other teams. You know, 173 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,280 Speaker 4: there's always still gonna be some weakness in there. Even 174 00:08:31,320 --> 00:08:33,839 Speaker 4: if they're doing that and had a chance to get it, 175 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:35,920 Speaker 4: maybe a little bit more penetration on a couple of 176 00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:39,600 Speaker 4: those looks maybe effect Jared back there a little bit more. 177 00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,199 Speaker 4: They executed, made some plays there. They had a nice 178 00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:44,320 Speaker 4: little sequence of three or four drives there where they 179 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:47,160 Speaker 4: were able to really put some execution on tape. And 180 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,760 Speaker 4: at that same time, it was kind of some self 181 00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 4: inflicted things on offense that kind of put us behind 182 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 4: the chains, and we were able to overcome it a 183 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:56,400 Speaker 4: few times, but at the other you know, when you don't, 184 00:08:57,320 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 4: that's where you have to figure out ways, and that's 185 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,880 Speaker 4: my job to fix those self inflicted Maybe that might 186 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,280 Speaker 4: not seem like a big deal at the time or 187 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,480 Speaker 4: when it is in the game, but that's what kind 188 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:09,679 Speaker 4: of football games. 189 00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,520 Speaker 2: I believe are out in front of this team. 190 00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,360 Speaker 4: When you're playing teams that are very, very good teams 191 00:09:14,440 --> 00:09:16,880 Speaker 4: and it's going to be competitive, not just the ones 192 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 4: we got left, but hopefully more. You got to be 193 00:09:19,360 --> 00:09:21,839 Speaker 4: willing to clean up those things and have the execution 194 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,560 Speaker 4: level be to the standard that you need to play 195 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 4: in these games. And I thought there were some real 196 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:29,880 Speaker 4: moments of that. I thought there was some fight dealt 197 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 4: with adversity in the game. But clearly, when if they're 198 00:09:34,040 --> 00:09:36,880 Speaker 4: able to get a field goal leave us fifteen seconds left, 199 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,360 Speaker 4: it's not enough have offensively. 200 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:39,640 Speaker 2: Coming out of the half. 201 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 5: Is there anything specific that around you guys to start 202 00:09:42,480 --> 00:09:42,840 Speaker 5: moving in. 203 00:09:42,920 --> 00:09:44,000 Speaker 2: With the way you guys did. 204 00:09:44,200 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think first and foremost we stopped kind of 205 00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:48,960 Speaker 4: shooting ourselves in the foot, and we did have that 206 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,280 Speaker 4: drive kind of moving a little bit, and then we 207 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 4: had the interception. You know, I thought Sam played really, 208 00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,200 Speaker 4: you know, really good football today. 209 00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: A lot of big time throws. 210 00:09:58,400 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 4: You know, we were able to get to you know, 211 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,800 Speaker 4: get get that first touchdown, and there really good execution 212 00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:04,800 Speaker 4: of a of a of a. 213 00:10:05,160 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 2: Run by Aaron in our group. 214 00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:09,640 Speaker 4: That's the kind of thing we need to have consistently, 215 00:10:09,679 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 4: over and over and over again. I think, are you know, 216 00:10:14,080 --> 00:10:16,040 Speaker 4: I was very happy with the way we were able 217 00:10:16,080 --> 00:10:18,360 Speaker 4: to respond in the third quarter and really, you know, 218 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,680 Speaker 4: continue to make that thing a football game and and 219 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 4: and find our way claw on our way back. But 220 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,560 Speaker 4: when you had a ten nothing lead, a little cleaner, 221 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 4: you know, complementary football there in the in the second quarter. 222 00:10:29,840 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 4: And we'll take a hard look at that and figure 223 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,920 Speaker 4: out how to play consistent. But you're not gonna, you know, 224 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 4: really good teams, you're not gonna just steamroll through the 225 00:10:37,160 --> 00:10:39,719 Speaker 4: game and have perfect plays on every play. But you 226 00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:44,040 Speaker 4: better make sure it's them that's causing, you know, truly 227 00:10:44,120 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 4: some of those things to happen instead of some of 228 00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 4: the self inflicted things. 229 00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:50,120 Speaker 2: The two point conversion or anything. 230 00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:52,120 Speaker 4: From what you saw, I think, yeah, they passed it off. 231 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:54,360 Speaker 4: We had a little motion there, man coverage, they passed 232 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:59,000 Speaker 4: it off. You know, Sam tried to you know, you know, 233 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 4: put it in there and do it. Window might have 234 00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 4: had speedy in the corner. I gotta go take a 235 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,920 Speaker 4: look at it. But you know, just one of those 236 00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 4: things where you look back on it and you know, 237 00:11:09,960 --> 00:11:12,000 Speaker 4: those are the types of things to you know, get 238 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:15,120 Speaker 4: those two points would be massive in that moment. And 239 00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 4: then just some of the plays down the stretch. You know, 240 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:18,880 Speaker 4: we got to be able to pitch and catch, We 241 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 4: got to be able to have you know, the execution 242 00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:24,560 Speaker 4: on a third and whatever it was four or five, 243 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,199 Speaker 4: you know, Sam out there, I think all eleven could 244 00:11:28,240 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 4: have been better on the play to make sure the 245 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:32,360 Speaker 4: detail is right. 246 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:33,679 Speaker 2: In those critical moments. 247 00:11:34,360 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 4: There was a lot of great execution of a lot 248 00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 4: of things today explosive again in the past game. We 249 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:42,320 Speaker 4: just I think we're fifty fifty, right around fifty plays 250 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:45,880 Speaker 4: and still able to manage to kind of stay toll 251 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,760 Speaker 4: for toe time of possession wise, yardage wise, all the stats. 252 00:11:48,760 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 4: That's great, But what I want to see is those 253 00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:53,000 Speaker 4: little things, those little things that really good teams do 254 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,319 Speaker 4: to give yourself the best chance to win football games 255 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:57,000 Speaker 4: like this, You're. 256 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: Not expected to pass them off in that situation with 257 00:12:00,200 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 2: do there's there's a you know, we've got a plan 258 00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: for it. Chris breed By, Jared Golf's just willingness to 259 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,560 Speaker 2: stand there as much as you need to throw out 260 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,880 Speaker 2: the day. Yeah, you know, Jared's a heck of a player. 261 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 2: I know Jared really. 262 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:13,520 Speaker 4: Well, got a ton of respect for him. He's tough, 263 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:15,360 Speaker 4: throws it as well as anybody. 264 00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 2: You know. 265 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 4: They they've got a really good they've got a really 266 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:19,680 Speaker 4: good offense. 267 00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 2: Ben does a great job calling it. 268 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:24,680 Speaker 4: They're well coached and and it's just a matter of 269 00:12:24,760 --> 00:12:27,560 Speaker 4: you've got to be on the screws every single snap. Uh, 270 00:12:27,960 --> 00:12:30,240 Speaker 4: you know, run game defense, you've got to do the 271 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 4: little things against him with play style and all those 272 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 4: things that we've talked about. And then when you get 273 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:37,880 Speaker 4: him in those situations, you know, how tight can we 274 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:39,480 Speaker 4: be in coverage, how great can the rush be? 275 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 2: Can we affect him? And if he's going to stand 276 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:42,880 Speaker 2: in there and make. 277 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:44,800 Speaker 4: Throws, you got to figure out a way to put 278 00:12:44,880 --> 00:12:47,760 Speaker 4: him in D and ds that that they they they're 279 00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 4: they're gonna have to hold it a little more, and 280 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 4: we got to cover a little tighter, and all those things. 281 00:12:52,080 --> 00:12:55,280 Speaker 2: It's just you. You can go back and watch, which 282 00:12:55,320 --> 00:12:57,160 Speaker 2: we will even on a short week. We'll get right 283 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 2: into it right now. 284 00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 4: But you're gonna find a lot of little things, little 285 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 4: tiny little details, techniques, fundamentals, calls that you know you 286 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 4: can you'd want back and got to find a way 287 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 4: to improve. You know, you can't be you can't just 288 00:13:10,240 --> 00:13:12,800 Speaker 4: enjoy the wins and and you know come back, we 289 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:16,840 Speaker 4: enjoy those more than anything. But truly, you know, championship 290 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:19,520 Speaker 4: caliber teams are gonna look inward. You know at the 291 00:13:19,640 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 4: first sign of adversity. We were able to do that 292 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:26,440 Speaker 4: in game, come back and get the lead, But challenge 293 00:13:26,480 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 4: everybody to look inward and see if we can do 294 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:30,160 Speaker 4: just a little bit more. Can we be a little 295 00:13:30,200 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 4: bit cleaner across the board? Because I have a ton 296 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:36,679 Speaker 4: of confidence in our team, our players, and how we 297 00:13:36,720 --> 00:13:38,760 Speaker 4: work to continue to grow and get better. 298 00:13:38,800 --> 00:13:39,880 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a long season. 299 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:42,760 Speaker 4: Proud of the way our guys battle back, didn't get 300 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,240 Speaker 4: it done in the end, I think do you think 301 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 4: do you think there was more of those little things today, 302 00:13:47,040 --> 00:13:48,640 Speaker 4: or they just show up more in a game. I 303 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 4: think they just show up more keV in a game 304 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 4: like this, the ebbs and flows of it. But yeah, 305 00:13:55,800 --> 00:14:00,959 Speaker 4: I I don't know exactly what the the total penalties. 306 00:14:01,000 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 4: I think both teams had eight, you know, and our 307 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 4: eighth was that last one trying to get that ball clocked. 308 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 4: But it's not even so much the volume, which you 309 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:12,360 Speaker 4: always want to keep low. It's what is it How 310 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:15,440 Speaker 4: does it impact that play because you just never in 311 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,520 Speaker 4: a game like this, you know, our players and coaches 312 00:14:18,600 --> 00:14:22,560 Speaker 4: have to understand that we we cannot just treat the 313 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:23,880 Speaker 4: end of game like this is. 314 00:14:23,800 --> 00:14:25,239 Speaker 2: How we're going to go win it. 315 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 4: It might be your your one impact might be a 316 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:29,520 Speaker 4: second and eight in the middle of the second quarter, 317 00:14:30,520 --> 00:14:31,840 Speaker 4: might be a first and tent in the middle of 318 00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,120 Speaker 4: the first quarter, It might be the first play of 319 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 4: the game. But urgency and trying to make sure the 320 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,720 Speaker 4: standard is driven to a place around here where we 321 00:14:39,800 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 4: get that execution. We make those plays and we consistently, 322 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 4: uh you know, complement all three phases of our team. 323 00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:46,280 Speaker 2: Kevin. 324 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,160 Speaker 1: It gives us catch at the end where they they 325 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:49,400 Speaker 1: got them into field goal range. 326 00:14:49,480 --> 00:14:52,440 Speaker 2: Yep, It's like it was way too easy or what 327 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 2: kind of breakdown happened? Then? 328 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I uh, you know, was you know, getting ready 329 00:14:56,800 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 4: to you know, kind of manage the end of that 330 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:01,080 Speaker 4: See if we could say ourselves some time, if they 331 00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:02,000 Speaker 4: got to play like that. 332 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 2: I have to go back and look at it. 333 00:15:04,320 --> 00:15:07,480 Speaker 4: You know a lot of times in those situations you're 334 00:15:07,480 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 4: hoping to maybe keep the back in, you know, keep 335 00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 4: them in via pressure. Whatever it was he got out, 336 00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:14,520 Speaker 4: they were able to find him and it was an 337 00:15:14,560 --> 00:15:17,560 Speaker 4: explosive for sure, and a critical play in that moment. 338 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:19,880 Speaker 4: We got to take a look at it and see 339 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,440 Speaker 4: how we can you know, try to get them off 340 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:22,920 Speaker 4: the field in that moment. 341 00:15:22,960 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 2: But to me, it goes. 342 00:15:24,120 --> 00:15:25,960 Speaker 4: Back to how did we handle it when we you know, 343 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 4: were able to force the punt there late trying to 344 00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:30,320 Speaker 4: you know, we get a couple of runs off, get 345 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:32,000 Speaker 4: to a third and manageable, and thought we had a 346 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,280 Speaker 4: chance to convert, maybe eat even more clock up, maybe 347 00:15:34,280 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 4: start getting them to use their timeouts. That's the complementary 348 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,280 Speaker 4: side of it where I don't think it's necessarily one play. 349 00:15:40,640 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 4: It's a collection of eleven guys needing to just do 350 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:47,560 Speaker 4: a little bit more coaching included where we just all 351 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 4: do a little bit more to try to get a 352 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 4: win and play the best possible game we can play. 353 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,000 Speaker 2: Kevin, what did you see on Sam's interception? 354 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,360 Speaker 4: Look click on the other side of the formation, eduined 355 00:15:56,440 --> 00:15:58,960 Speaker 4: sold proving a print. Yeah, so you know it was 356 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:02,040 Speaker 4: man coverage and uh, you know, the safety was kind 357 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:06,640 Speaker 4: of pre snapped leaning to Justin's side. Thought we might 358 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 4: have a chance there to maybe get Justin. Going away 359 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,880 Speaker 4: from all that, Davis did a nice job you know 360 00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:16,160 Speaker 4: through five maybe beyond five with a little grab and 361 00:16:16,200 --> 00:16:18,400 Speaker 4: hold and just kind of throwing the rhythm of Justin 362 00:16:18,440 --> 00:16:21,040 Speaker 4: off maybe a little bit. Thought we might have had 363 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 4: a chance to maybe give Aaron the ball there kind 364 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:26,480 Speaker 4: of as we talked about the play, but Sam had 365 00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 4: Jordan flash to him and Branch did a really nice 366 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:31,440 Speaker 4: job kind of being in the area, uh to to 367 00:16:31,640 --> 00:16:34,600 Speaker 4: kind of jump that throw. You know, that's one of 368 00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 4: those things. Sam made so many good decisions today through 369 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 4: so many, uh you know, highly highly competitive throws to 370 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 4: give our guys chances touchdown to Justin included, and they 371 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:44,920 Speaker 4: got us on that one. 372 00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 6: Just as far as Aaron Jones kind of battling through 373 00:16:48,160 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 6: the weeks Yep. 374 00:16:49,080 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 2: What did you make of the way that he played? 375 00:16:50,480 --> 00:16:52,360 Speaker 2: It was phenomenal. Yeah, he was really good. 376 00:16:52,480 --> 00:16:55,960 Speaker 4: You know, he was not one but you know, literally 377 00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,360 Speaker 4: from the time we touched down from London, uh to today, 378 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:02,680 Speaker 4: it's sign up to sundown treatment. And Tyler and his 379 00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 4: staff did a great job. Aaron is a true pros pro, 380 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,760 Speaker 4: one of those, you know, standard setters for our team. 381 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 4: And the fact that he was able to not only 382 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,240 Speaker 4: make it but have the kind of impact he did 383 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:17,280 Speaker 4: on the game, just very, very fortunate to have Aaron 384 00:17:17,359 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 4: Jones on the football team that I coach. 385 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:21,199 Speaker 1: Well, I mean he said so many things there that 386 00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:24,360 Speaker 1: were pertinent to the way the game played out. Vikings 387 00:17:24,359 --> 00:17:27,119 Speaker 1: get the Rams by the way Thursday, So two games 388 00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 1: in five days and it's a road game. But I mean, 389 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 1: the Lions what a professional team that they were inches 390 00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:36,080 Speaker 1: from going to the Super Bowl last year. They lose 391 00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 1: Aiden Hutchinson, one of the best defensive players in the 392 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: NFL for the year last game. But offensively, this is 393 00:17:42,920 --> 00:17:46,159 Speaker 1: the best offense in the NFL, averaging thirty points a game, 394 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: twenty three first downs a game, that's number one in 395 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,560 Speaker 1: the NFL. They run for one fifty seven a game, 396 00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:55,639 Speaker 1: and it just typifies how professional they are when you 397 00:17:55,680 --> 00:18:00,159 Speaker 1: hear this. Jared Goff twenty two of twenty five to 398 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: two eighty and two no picks. Jamiir Gibbs one hundred 399 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 1: and sixteen rushing yards, two touchdowns. Gibbs has scored five 400 00:18:07,640 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 1: touchdowns against the Vikings in his three games against Minnesota 401 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: so far. And I'm and Ross Saint Brown won twelve 402 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:14,640 Speaker 1: and one. 403 00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, you look at what this offense, 404 00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:20,439 Speaker 3: the Lions offense has put up one hundred and twenty 405 00:18:20,480 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 3: points in the last three games. Wow, right, Yeah, and 406 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:27,240 Speaker 3: we defensively, I think we're number two in the league 407 00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 3: going into it. Yeah, a fifteen point two per game. 408 00:18:30,240 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 3: And you know, obviously obviously they they won out on 409 00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,920 Speaker 3: you know, on that on that side. But yes, very 410 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:40,760 Speaker 3: very good offense. The question marks were really on defense, 411 00:18:40,800 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 3: and I think it took us a little while to 412 00:18:42,960 --> 00:18:45,159 Speaker 3: figure out what the Lions were doing and how we 413 00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:47,719 Speaker 3: could combat it. They kept a lot of linebackers on 414 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,240 Speaker 3: the field. You know, I think that this means teams 415 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:51,720 Speaker 3: are going to try to spread them out and do 416 00:18:51,800 --> 00:18:55,199 Speaker 3: those things. But just a little too long, you know, 417 00:18:55,200 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 3: a little too long, I think on our on our 418 00:18:57,800 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 3: what we expected. And that's a hard thing because when 419 00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:01,840 Speaker 3: you lose a player, you know, you lose a player 420 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,600 Speaker 3: like Aiden Hutchinson, you don't know what the defense. He 421 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,479 Speaker 3: was so much of this defense, you don't know what 422 00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:08,720 Speaker 3: their identity is going to be right after you lose 423 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,119 Speaker 3: someone like that. So it took a little while to 424 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 3: feel him out. It just it's a well played football game. 425 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,000 Speaker 3: Two good teams. It's exactly kind of what we expected. 426 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:18,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, two of the better teams in the NFL met today, 427 00:19:18,760 --> 00:19:23,359 Speaker 1: both teams with injuries. Both team overcame the injuries. Sam 428 00:19:23,440 --> 00:19:26,520 Speaker 1: Darnold before we hear from him, he started a little slowly. 429 00:19:26,880 --> 00:19:29,600 Speaker 1: Now you know, Sam went a half into the third 430 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:34,119 Speaker 1: quarter having not thrown a touchdown pass since five minutes 431 00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: and change to go first half at lambeau Field a 432 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 1: fourteen yard touchdown to Justin Jefferson. So we're talking two 433 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:45,280 Speaker 1: full games with no touchdown passes from the September Offensive 434 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: Player of the Month for the NFC. He finishes twenty 435 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:51,800 Speaker 1: two of twenty seven to fifty nine, a touchdown in 436 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:54,720 Speaker 1: that pick and he also ran for thirty nine yards 437 00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 1: had a sweet one for nineteen yards. Sam the man 438 00:19:57,560 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 1: on the fan. 439 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 3: What do you think, Yeah, I thought, you know, it 440 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:02,040 Speaker 3: was it was great to see him kind of rebound 441 00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,560 Speaker 3: from the from the interception that he threw, you know, 442 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,639 Speaker 3: earlier in the game. I think the lines at a 443 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,200 Speaker 3: really good job of mixing and zone and man and 444 00:20:11,280 --> 00:20:15,480 Speaker 3: in that respect, Donald needed to know that when it's man, 445 00:20:15,520 --> 00:20:17,600 Speaker 3: you can throw that fifty to fifty ball to JJ, 446 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:19,840 Speaker 3: or you can throw the fifty to fifty ball. You know, 447 00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 3: there was no one really running wide open. That's the 448 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:23,760 Speaker 3: time when you really got to get that thing, you know, 449 00:20:24,440 --> 00:20:27,320 Speaker 3: just get it in there and and and make a 450 00:20:27,320 --> 00:20:29,520 Speaker 3: little bit more of a risky throw. So it just 451 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:31,480 Speaker 3: seemed like the timing was off right. He held the 452 00:20:31,520 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 3: ball more, I think today than we've seen him all year, 453 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:37,879 Speaker 3: all year long. And you know again, I but then 454 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,639 Speaker 3: I go down that rabit only think about these routes. 455 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:42,920 Speaker 3: A lot of these routes just did not look right. 456 00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,320 Speaker 3: You had guys stacked on top of one another, and 457 00:20:45,359 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 3: we said, I said it to you a couple of 458 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:49,040 Speaker 3: times even during the games like that. It didn't look 459 00:20:49,080 --> 00:20:51,600 Speaker 3: right because you don't know who the intended receiver is for. 460 00:20:51,800 --> 00:20:54,240 Speaker 2: So is it mistakes? 461 00:20:54,400 --> 00:20:56,520 Speaker 3: You know, what is it I you know, we'll see, 462 00:20:57,960 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 3: but yeah, Donald, just I hate to see him holding 463 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:03,679 Speaker 3: on in the football as much as he did today. 464 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:08,160 Speaker 1: Let's hear from Sam Darnold, quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings, on. 465 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:13,480 Speaker 6: Guys, Yeah, obviously, you know, uh, tough loss, really good 466 00:21:13,480 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 6: football team we just played. I still feel like, you know, 467 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:20,680 Speaker 6: operationally we can get better. Still, some missed opportunities out there, 468 00:21:21,119 --> 00:21:24,639 Speaker 6: and uh but yeah again just uh, you know, we 469 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,040 Speaker 6: tip our caps to those guys and you know, really 470 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:30,240 Speaker 6: good ball club. But again there's there's a lot of 471 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:31,680 Speaker 6: a lot of stuff that we could have done better 472 00:21:31,680 --> 00:21:32,119 Speaker 6: on offense. 473 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:38,920 Speaker 5: U SUD, What did you feel like allow your guys 474 00:21:39,000 --> 00:21:42,080 Speaker 5: come out of the half to to initially have the succession? 475 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 2: Guys did that for sure? Yeah. 476 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,480 Speaker 6: I think it's you know, just staying you know, staying 477 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:50,760 Speaker 6: with it. You know, it's it's football. You know, things 478 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 6: things aren't necessarily going to go your way all the time. 479 00:21:53,640 --> 00:21:56,720 Speaker 6: So you know, that surgeon, you know, to to come 480 00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 6: out there, you know in the second half with a 481 00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 6: with a U sound was huge, and uh yeah, you 482 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,800 Speaker 6: know that's just kind of the team that we have, 483 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 6: you know, no matter what the score is, no matter 484 00:22:08,400 --> 00:22:10,880 Speaker 6: what's happening. We're we're gonna continue to be resilient. 485 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:15,879 Speaker 1: The final possession there, the overthrowing Jefferson, you think you 486 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 1: could have done better? 487 00:22:16,520 --> 00:22:17,320 Speaker 6: What would have happened here? 488 00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 2: To keep that going, we'll play sorry, the last possession 489 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:21,400 Speaker 2: third four? 490 00:22:21,560 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 6: I think, oh yeah, second to last possession.

It's a 545 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 1: road game. You've played in games on short weeks you 546 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 1: have coach when you're a linebackers coach here, you've coached 547 00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: teams on short weeks with travel. The Vikings will leave Wednesday, 548 00:24:56,720 --> 00:24:59,439 Speaker 1: they will play Thursday evening. It's so far. What are 549 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,359 Speaker 1: some challenge for the team that's making the trip on 550 00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: a short week. 551 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:06,440 Speaker 3: Well, there's a lot of challenges overall, meaning you only 552 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 3: have really one day of meetings in practice. You know, 553 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:12,200 Speaker 3: because you do get these, you get a mandatory day off, 554 00:25:12,200 --> 00:25:13,959 Speaker 3: so they're not going to work tomorrow. They'll be there 555 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:16,240 Speaker 3: all day Tuesday Wednesday. You got to get as much 556 00:25:16,240 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 3: work in as you can go. So you can't reinvent 557 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:22,520 Speaker 3: the wheel so these distematics offensively and defensively, you got 558 00:25:22,520 --> 00:25:25,560 Speaker 3: to carry over as much as you possibly can and 559 00:25:25,680 --> 00:25:29,320 Speaker 3: just tweak as much as you can. Your goal is 560 00:25:29,359 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 3: to know an offense or a defense that you're going 561 00:25:31,800 --> 00:25:33,840 Speaker 3: up against, and in such a short amount of time, 562 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,320 Speaker 3: it's really really hard to do. So each of the 563 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,840 Speaker 3: players has to watch a little bit of extra film, 564 00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:41,960 Speaker 3: spend the lecture time getting themselves familiar with their upcoming opponent. 565 00:25:42,320 --> 00:25:43,160 Speaker 3: On a short week. 566 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:46,439 Speaker 1: The Minnesota Vikings fall to the Detroit Lions today in 567 00:25:46,520 --> 00:25:51,120 Speaker 1: dramatic fashion. Jake Bates first full year from Arkansas.
