1
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:06,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I definitely did last night. I usually do

2
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,000
Speaker 1: UM the night of the game. UM, no matter what

3
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,559
Speaker 1: time we play, I usually can't sleep until I do UM. Yeah,

4
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:15,400
Speaker 1: come through it, UM. A lot of good offensively things

5
00:00:15,400 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: to build on. UM. Just the timing of the bad

6
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 1: plays really killed us. And that's that's me. You know,

7
00:00:20,600 --> 00:00:21,919
Speaker 1: that's on me. I got to own that and be

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:30,479
Speaker 1: better in those situations. Yeah. I mean he would have

9
00:00:30,480 --> 00:00:33,400
Speaker 1: probably picked up fifteen twenty yards UM. So yeah, that

10
00:00:33,400 --> 00:00:47,320
Speaker 1: one definitely kicking myself over. Yeah. I mean, yeah, you know,

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 1: you're you're calling it down the field play, you know,

12
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,600
Speaker 1: and you always have underneath UM checkdowns, but calling the

13
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 1: play UM to be aggressive down the field. UM, I

14
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:58,600
Speaker 1: thought Pitt was able to get over the linebacker, so

15
00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,480
Speaker 1: I threw it to a spot, didn't really have my

16
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 1: eyes on the safety like I should have, and Bired

17
00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:05,040
Speaker 1: made a great play. UM, hats off to him. But yeah,

18
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: underneath coverage got a lot of depth. So in the hindsight,

19
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: definitely wish I would have checked it down to JT there.

20
00:01:10,200 --> 00:01:12,520
Speaker 1: But UM, one I got to learn from one of

21
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:20,039
Speaker 1: you know, the timing of it just just really stinks.

22
00:01:20,360 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 1: Were fun. Yeah, I mean those are usually RPOs or

23
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,000
Speaker 1: you know, defenses flitzing somebody, so you're forced to throw

24
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:37,320
Speaker 1: at different things like that. So UM, we're gonna have

25
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: those in every week. We're gonna have those in, um

26
00:01:39,920 --> 00:01:42,400
Speaker 1: multiple times a game, and some games more than others.

27
00:01:42,440 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 1: So UM, you know, I thought for the most part,

28
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:57,120
Speaker 1: those plays were actually pretty successful for us, are you. Yeah.

29
00:01:57,160 --> 00:01:58,800
Speaker 1: I mean my method is the same, whether it's a

30
00:01:58,840 --> 00:02:01,680
Speaker 1: short week, long week, whatever, where it's I learned from

31
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 1: the tape. Like I said, I usually watch it right

32
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,640
Speaker 1: away that night. Um. Usually we come in and go

33
00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:08,200
Speaker 1: over it again. But a short week we don't have

34
00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,360
Speaker 1: time to um. But yeah, I move on quick. UM.

35
00:02:11,560 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: I try and have that mentality within game to game,

36
00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:16,040
Speaker 1: within play to play, you know, make a bad play,

37
00:02:16,120 --> 00:02:18,639
Speaker 1: go um, trying not to lose confidence, just go make

38
00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,799
Speaker 1: plays um and learn from it. But yeah, I mean

39
00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: I'm confident in my ability to to flip the script

40
00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: and I know everybody in that locker room the same

41
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:40,640
Speaker 1: before all. Yeah, I mean i'd say, um, being in

42
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:42,880
Speaker 1: my sixth year, I mean every year there's there's an

43
00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:45,400
Speaker 1: new experience that that you can learn from and you

44
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 1: can you can glean from and try to um, you know,

45
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:52,919
Speaker 1: do it better, um ultimately, and UM, you know I'm

46
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,799
Speaker 1: confident and UM this locker room, that's the one thing

47
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:59,360
Speaker 1: that continues to show up and UM shine to me

48
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,680
Speaker 1: is just every body's belief in there. You know, we're

49
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 1: so close in so many of these games, and no excuses,

50
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:07,720
Speaker 1: excuse excuses aside, um, but we're all so confident in

51
00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,240
Speaker 1: each other. You know, it doesn't matter what's being set outside.

52
00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 1: You know, we don't listen to that, um, but we're

53
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: still confident in who we are and our ability going forward. UM.

54
00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 1: And so yeah, every year I've I've learned something different,

55
00:03:18,840 --> 00:03:21,000
Speaker 1: um from the good, the bad, and the ugly, and

56
00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 1: so uh just keep keep leaning in on those experiences

57
00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 1: and get better. Yeah you might have had yeah, yeah,

58
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:37,920
Speaker 1: I just saw like I didn't have a place to

59
00:03:37,960 --> 00:03:39,280
Speaker 1: dirt it, so I was trying to dirt it in

60
00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 1: another another spot. And then the next thing, you know,

61
00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:44,400
Speaker 1: it was a it was a bad feeling, really bad feeling.

62
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 1: Correct Now, I was just trying to get it out

63
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,320
Speaker 1: and just safety would have really ultimately killed us there,

64
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: um because they would have got the ball back as well.

65
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: So exactly so fortunately we were able to go back

66
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,920
Speaker 1: and um, impressively go back down to score and force

67
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 1: of force over time, But we just didn't get it done. Um.

68
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 1: I mean it came back to by me for sure. UM,

69
00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,080
Speaker 1: I'll own that one. UM. But as far as play

70
00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,839
Speaker 1: call and all that, no, I love coaches aggressive mindset

71
00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,279
Speaker 1: because all of those plays are aggressive. But like I said,

72
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: there's a checkout and there's underneath. UM, so I just

73
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,760
Speaker 1: got to read the defense better in those situations. But Uh, yeah,

74
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:32,360
Speaker 1: I know I thought we called. I thought coach called

75
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:34,600
Speaker 1: a great game, and UM put us in the chance

76
00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:42,600
Speaker 1: to win, and I got to make better decisions. I

77
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,840
Speaker 1: wasn't sure. I wasn't sure. I was just trying to

78
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,680
Speaker 1: make sure we got an the end zone first and foremost,

79
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: and uh, let coach make those calls. Uh. Flow of

80
00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 1: the game was weird. Um, definitely different flow of the game.

81
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:01,520
Speaker 1: I thought we did a handful of good things, and

82
00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:03,440
Speaker 1: you know, we had a couple of too many penalties

83
00:05:03,440 --> 00:05:07,040
Speaker 1: and mistakes that we inflicted on ourselves, including the turnovers

84
00:05:07,080 --> 00:05:10,240
Speaker 1: late and all those things. So uh, definitely, rhythm offensively

85
00:05:10,360 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 1: was a little different. I thought we did some good things,

86
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:31,960
Speaker 1: but just not enough consistently. Yeah, it's always a fine mine.

87
00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:33,640
Speaker 1: It's always a fine mine because even some of the

88
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 1: big plays that we hit, maybe you know, maybe they

89
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 1: are forced a little bit, but and there is a

90
00:05:37,720 --> 00:05:40,160
Speaker 1: check down open. But UM, so you just gotta just

91
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:44,120
Speaker 1: be smart and know when take those calculated risks, so

92
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,839
Speaker 1: to speak, and definitely know the situation in the ballgame

93
00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:49,600
Speaker 1: and all of those things. And I'm always learning. I'm

94
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,640
Speaker 1: I'm a work in progress. I'm always learning, trying to

95
00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,760
Speaker 1: be smart and make good decisions. And hopefully the aggressiveness

96
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:57,640
Speaker 1: is going to pay off more than it won't. Um.

97
00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:12,240
Speaker 1: But in that in that case, it costs me. Yeah, UM,

98
00:06:12,279 --> 00:06:15,719
Speaker 1: a little down right now. Honestly, I mean, UM, I

99
00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:18,559
Speaker 1: think we will shake it out quickly once we start.

100
00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,560
Speaker 1: Once we're all back together, you go, you start to

101
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 1: feel a little bit better. I don't know why that

102
00:06:23,520 --> 00:06:25,440
Speaker 1: is or what it is about that, because you're all

103
00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: kind of going through the same thing, feeling the same thing.

104
00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:30,440
Speaker 1: So once we start, we have a team meeting at noon,

105
00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:33,239
Speaker 1: and we'll have a full day, um, you know, getting

106
00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:35,960
Speaker 1: ready for the Thursday game. And UM, that's a great

107
00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:38,719
Speaker 1: thing about football. We got another opportunity to go, um,

108
00:06:38,920 --> 00:06:41,760
Speaker 1: get a win, show who we are. Um, so that's

109
00:06:41,760 --> 00:06:48,600
Speaker 1: what we'll do. I don't know, right if we knew

110
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:56,800
Speaker 1: we do it. Um, yeah, I don't know. It's tough

111
00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 1: to Like I said, it's tough to put on one thing. Um,

112
00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:06,520
Speaker 1: it's just been something. You know, football's football is funny. Um.

113
00:07:06,600 --> 00:07:08,839
Speaker 1: You know you you you practice already, you put in

114
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:13,680
Speaker 1: the work, you do everything that you know, digging in

115
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:15,920
Speaker 1: and then sometimes it's just not working out. And so

116
00:07:16,120 --> 00:07:18,840
Speaker 1: what do you do? You just you keep going into that.

117
00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:22,200
Speaker 1: You know the process works, you know, UM, you know

118
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:24,480
Speaker 1: how we how we do things here, It gets us

119
00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:28,000
Speaker 1: better as the season goes on. UM. So that's that's

120
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:29,880
Speaker 1: what you do. You dig deeper into that and you

121
00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 1: keep you keep working, um, and the ball will start

122
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 1: bouncing our way a little bit in those games. No,

123
00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,360
Speaker 1: I've never had a conversation with another guy about that. Um.

124
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:49,840
Speaker 1: You know, you'll talk about each game individually. I guess

125
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:53,000
Speaker 1: you know, like, um, you know, man, we should have

126
00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:54,440
Speaker 1: had that one or that you know this would happen,

127
00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 1: you talk about individually, But I haven't. I can't say

128
00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,720
Speaker 1: I've had a conversation with guys about oh man, we

129
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 1: can't win big games or you know whatever that is. Um,

130
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:08,720
Speaker 1: I haven't felt that. Um so yeah, no, I would say, no,

131
00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:19,400
Speaker 1: we haven't really talked about that. Wow. Yeah yeah, I

132
00:08:19,760 --> 00:08:23,120
Speaker 1: would say, don't like it. Um it's tough, man, it's tough.

133
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,440
Speaker 1: It's tough to get back going. Um. But it is

134
00:08:26,480 --> 00:08:28,640
Speaker 1: what it is. They're the you know jets are going

135
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: through the same thing. UM. So we just gotta get ready,

136
00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:34,400
Speaker 1: get ready to go and um go put our our

137
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:37,839
Speaker 1: our best um our best performance out there and that's

138
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 1: what we try to do every week and go one

139
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:52,360
Speaker 1: too this week. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, you definitely got to

140
00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 1: do a little bit of extra early in the week. UM,

141
00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,280
Speaker 1: do more on a Monday than I normally would do,

142
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,360
Speaker 1: um to get the body back going. Uh. And he

143
00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:02,280
Speaker 1: look forward to having you know, you get it like

144
00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:05,079
Speaker 1: almost a mini buy afterwards. So that's probably coming out

145
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:07,440
Speaker 1: of good time for us. UM. So he's fight through

146
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,040
Speaker 1: that early in the week. And once you get going

147
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:11,960
Speaker 1: and moving around and you start to feel a little

148
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,200
Speaker 1: bit better and knowing you got the rest on the

149
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:15,880
Speaker 1: back end helps
