Speaker 1: it's pretty cool anytime you know you're gonna have a

22
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:15,920
Speaker 1: lot of family there. About an hour and a half

23
00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:17,400
Speaker 1: from where I grew up, so all a lot of

24
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,560
Speaker 1: people from my hometown there. So I'm excited to be fun.

25
00:01:20,600 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: Hopefully we can put on a show and get a win.

26
00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: How many ticket requests did you feel the last week?

27
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,800
Speaker 1: This week, I actually had none. Everybody wanted to get

28
00:01:27,840 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 1: better seats than I guess on the road, so they said,

29
00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,640
Speaker 1: we don't want your tickets this week, We'll get them

30
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:34,520
Speaker 1: on our own. That it was a pretty easy week.

31
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 1: I'm about the same way. Yeah, my whole side of

32
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,479
Speaker 1: family home. He had to get like ten tickets from

33
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,840
Speaker 1: my friends. Okay, let her in a family covered it

34
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,119
Speaker 1: on our own. Yeah, Baltimore when we played the Ravens,

35
00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 1: that's a little closer for you for home. That was

36
00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,560
Speaker 1: the ticket request. Pretty outlandish then, Yeah, Baltimore is a lot,

37
00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:50,760
Speaker 1: and then Philly is probably the most. Okay, I grew

38
00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:53,600
Speaker 1: up about thirty minutes south of Philly, so Philly's the worst.

39
00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:55,680
Speaker 1: Baltimore is up there, and I'm sure this one with

40
00:01:55,800 --> 00:01:57,880
Speaker 1: this one seemed to be all right, so far, you

41
00:01:57,920 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: were like right in the middle of a bunch of

42
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,480
Speaker 1: pro team. Did that help, I guess maybe grow your

43
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,960
Speaker 1: fandom or your love of the game. Yeah, I mean

44
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,560
Speaker 1: it always seems like, you know, those games were always

45
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 1: around the area. New York was pretty close, so I

46
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:13,280
Speaker 1: always grew up seeing it, and I always wanted to

47
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:15,560
Speaker 1: be in the NFL one day. And here we are. Man,

48
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,760
Speaker 1: before we get to two Truths in a Lie CD,

49
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:23,040
Speaker 1: you just named off like ten twelve Commanders players that well,

50
00:02:23,080 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: Washington players I used to play for the organization. Did

51
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:27,960
Speaker 1: you grow up at Washington fan? I grew up at

52
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 1: Eagles fan. Okay, mom's from Philadelphia. Okay, I always was

53
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:33,400
Speaker 1: in Philadelphia for like all the holidays and things like that,

54
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 1: so I was a more of a Eagles fan Commanders.

55
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:39,560
Speaker 1: That's a lot of hate, ma family. It was a

56
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:41,520
Speaker 1: lot of tension, for sure, no doubt. All Right, Well,

57
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:44,160
Speaker 1: we're gonna start to show off with with the icebreaker.

58
00:02:44,200 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 1: We got two cards in front of you. Guys. Fans

59
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,679
Speaker 1: who have watched the show know that we started this

60
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 1: thing off from Two Truths in a Lie Christian. We're

61
00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,359
Speaker 1: gonna start off with you, so you're read three sentences

62
00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:56,919
Speaker 1: Brian's up to you to figure out which two or true,

63
00:02:56,960 --> 00:02:59,840
Speaker 1: which one is a lie. First one, Kirk Cousins named

64
00:02:59,840 --> 00:03:02,360
Speaker 1: me crime Dog because I was a first baseman from

65
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: my little league team. Second one, a nickname my mom

66
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: gave me growing up, was a gentle giant. And the

67
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,079
Speaker 1: third one, I was a seventy first overall recruit coming

68
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:13,360
Speaker 1: out of high school. I don't think you were rated

69
00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 1: seventy first overall coming out of high school? Went prep school? Yeah, yeah,

70
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:21,519
Speaker 1: there's no way number seventy one in countries. You got it? Man?

71
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,079
Speaker 1: What you were a two star recruit going in two

72
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,359
Speaker 1: Fork Union to prep school and you you left being

73
00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:29,639
Speaker 1: a fourth star recruit. What was the motivation of being

74
00:03:29,680 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: under recruited? It really just like all the like college

75
00:03:32,720 --> 00:03:34,239
Speaker 1: coaches telling me that they were going to offer me

76
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,640
Speaker 1: at some point during my hot like my senior year,

77
00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:39,360
Speaker 1: and no offer fell through other than a Virginia attack,

78
00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,400
Speaker 1: and they kind of put that plane in a place

79
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:43,440
Speaker 1: for me to go to Fort Union and everything worked

80
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,040
Speaker 1: out and early in the road that spring and the

81
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: rest is history. Man and your mom, gentle Giant, Kirk,

82
00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:54,360
Speaker 1: crime Dog. I mean, the nicknames keep coming. Do you

83
00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:56,040
Speaker 1: got you got a favorite one out of all of

84
00:03:56,080 --> 00:03:58,760
Speaker 1: the ones that I guess have evolved over your time.

85
00:03:58,840 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 1: I probably say crime dog Shore just because it came

86
00:04:01,440 --> 00:04:03,720
Speaker 1: from Kirk. Yeah. Yeah, kind of stay to him like

87
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:09,960
Speaker 1: big dog, big dog, that's what you call Yeah everybody, Yeah, man,

88
00:04:10,280 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: did you know who Fred McGriff was the crime dog? Oh?

89
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 1: So Like it was just like he called me the

90
00:04:13,920 --> 00:04:15,560
Speaker 1: crime dog one day and I was like, who is that.

91
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:17,960
Speaker 1: He put up his phone. He did a little research,

92
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 1: showed me and I know he is now typical Kirk

93
00:04:20,720 --> 00:04:26,320
Speaker 1: fashion right. First one, I accepted my football scholarship to

94
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,719
Speaker 1: the University of Pittsburgh while out of high school basketball

95
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,599
Speaker 1: camp and pitt Second one, I dressed up as Woody

96
00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:34,280
Speaker 1: from Toy Story for Halloween this year. And the third

97
00:04:34,360 --> 00:04:36,000
Speaker 1: one is I ran the fastest forty time at the

98
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 1: twenty eighteen NFL Combine among all offensive tackles. You can

99
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,000
Speaker 1: dress up as Woody this year. He was a buzz

100
00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,560
Speaker 1: lay Hey nice. Yeah, it's like y'all work. It's like

101
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:48,360
Speaker 1: y'all like I guess, work out in the same room

102
00:04:48,440 --> 00:04:50,239
Speaker 1: and do a lot of spent a lot of time together.

103
00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,000
Speaker 1: My lockers are next to each other. He spend all

104
00:04:53,080 --> 00:04:56,400
Speaker 1: day together every day our season the plane or next

105
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:59,760
Speaker 1: to each other. Yeah, I mean, how does that develop

106
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:04,080
Speaker 1: relationship because obviously you guys didn't choose to be in

107
00:05:04,160 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 1: the positions you're in, So how does that relationship evolve

108
00:05:07,200 --> 00:05:08,960
Speaker 1: over time? Then? I mean, I think it kind of

109
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:11,000
Speaker 1: happens naturally, just with the nature of how much time

110
00:05:11,040 --> 00:05:14,400
Speaker 1: we spend together. Obviously we both play offensive tackle, and

111
00:05:15,279 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 1: so we do a lot of things in the room

112
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:19,080
Speaker 1: together on individual drills of practice, and you know, hopefully

113
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:20,880
Speaker 1: we can do it for a long time and continue

114
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:23,320
Speaker 1: to build it. I want to before we stay there,

115
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:26,680
Speaker 1: I got to ask about the pit accepting the scholarship

116
00:05:26,720 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 1: while at a basketball camp to the school that you

117
00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:31,520
Speaker 1: were at. You got to explain that story. I had

118
00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:32,960
Speaker 1: an offer from Pitt, and I knew I was going

119
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:35,159
Speaker 1: to go there, but my high school basketball team at

120
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 1: the time went to a team camp team basketball camp

121
00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:39,760
Speaker 1: of Pitt. So we all drove out and did like

122
00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,600
Speaker 1: a week long sleepaway camp, and the last day, me

123
00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:45,040
Speaker 1: and my two basketball coaches drove over to the football

124
00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,400
Speaker 1: office and then I committed there that day. Well, I

125
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:48,800
Speaker 1: must have been pretty cool to did in person. I

126
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: don't think many that happens too often unless you're on

127
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 1: like an official visit. Right, Yeah, it's pretty cool. There

128
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:54,400
Speaker 1: wasn't like a ton of fan fair. I was just

129
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,920
Speaker 1: in the office with the coach and I told him like, yeah,

130
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:00,480
Speaker 1: I'm coming, so let's do this. I gonna talk to

131
00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 1: you a little about the Buzz Lightyear customs. I think

132
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,800
Speaker 1: it cut a little bit of traction on Twitter with

133
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 1: the animated movie looking a little bit like you. Is

134
00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,120
Speaker 1: that why you leaned in so much? Oh? Yeah, for sure.

135
00:06:13,160 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: I mean everybody all year has been telling me I

136
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:17,880
Speaker 1: look like so it was kind of an easy choice

137
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:22,240
Speaker 1: for me. Jonathan Bullard only calls me Buzz. Really see him,

138
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,760
Speaker 1: what's up? Buzz? It works. I guess I'll roll with it.

139
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:27,880
Speaker 1: So you just had to embrace it at that point. Yeah, yeah,

140
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,279
Speaker 1: I got that one. I've gotten mister Incredible before. Okay,

141
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: So it was between those two probably understanding that you

142
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:36,799
Speaker 1: can have a little bit of fun while play football.

143
00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: How important is that when you need to build that

144
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,960
Speaker 1: team chemistry. I mean, at the end of the day,

145
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:44,880
Speaker 1: it's people doing a job. If people feel good about

146
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:46,919
Speaker 1: the job they're doing and feel good about being around

147
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,840
Speaker 1: each other, you'd like to think they're gonna do it

148
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,599
Speaker 1: at a high level. What we do is really hard

149
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: day in and day out. You know, over the course

150
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,839
Speaker 1: of the season, it's really difficult. If you can enjoy

151
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,919
Speaker 1: it and have fun and enjoy the guys you're around,

152
00:06:57,200 --> 00:06:58,760
Speaker 1: it's gonna make it a lot easier and I think

153
00:06:58,800 --> 00:07:01,520
Speaker 1: you're gonna see a lot better performances. Christian, how would

154
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:04,479
Speaker 1: you rate the amount of fun you're having right now

155
00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:07,840
Speaker 1: in your second year on this wind streak? A lot

156
00:07:07,920 --> 00:07:10,520
Speaker 1: of fun. When you're winning, you can't complain at all.

157
00:07:10,600 --> 00:07:12,240
Speaker 1: And I feel like us in the locker room. We're

158
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,400
Speaker 1: a really tight group and there's nobody who thinks they're

159
00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,360
Speaker 1: above each other, so we all get along very well.

160
00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,000
Speaker 1: And while we're winning, we're having fun with it too.

161
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:21,600
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get you to answer this question about Christian Brian,

162
00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,960
Speaker 1: how have you seen because you always hear about people saying,

163
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,400
Speaker 1: you know, the biggest jump in the person's career is

164
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:29,920
Speaker 1: from year one to year two. How have you seen

165
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,960
Speaker 1: him grow from year one to year two? And Christian Derris,

166
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,400
Speaker 1: I mean you just put on the tape and watch

167
00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:36,400
Speaker 1: what he's doing with people. I mean it makes it

168
00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:39,280
Speaker 1: look easy. Most of the time to be honest, and

169
00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,120
Speaker 1: he's out there. He's relaxed, he's playing confident, he's himself

170
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:45,000
Speaker 1: and he knows that people can't beat him and he's

171
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: going to continue to do it. What have you learned

172
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,360
Speaker 1: from Brian in a sense that maybe help you make

173
00:07:49,440 --> 00:07:51,120
Speaker 1: the leap from year one to year two as well?

174
00:07:51,680 --> 00:07:54,480
Speaker 1: Just watching really was watching him one films A. He's

175
00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,920
Speaker 1: a leader in our room, so he keeps us all

176
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 1: levelheaded throughout the game and whatnot. So I'm just watching

177
00:08:00,760 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 1: just like tape and seeing like the little things that

178
00:08:02,520 --> 00:08:04,960
Speaker 1: he does and picking apart his game. Um, and I

179
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:06,600
Speaker 1: feel like I do that for any tackles in the

180
00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,440
Speaker 1: league who was a dominant tackle and trying to implement

181
00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:12,720
Speaker 1: them o game. What is something he does that you

182
00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,400
Speaker 1: think maybe people aren't seeing on tape that impresses you

183
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:20,000
Speaker 1: the most? Really, it's passed bro. He has great feet hands.

184
00:08:20,200 --> 00:08:22,080
Speaker 1: I really feel like that's really the hardest thing for

185
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:24,960
Speaker 1: us is pastor texting, especially for tackles, because we're on

186
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:27,960
Speaker 1: the island from a majority of the game, and it's

187
00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,920
Speaker 1: like its quickness his feet, work and hands. It's us

188
00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: like perfection and understanding that right because usually the only

189
00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,920
Speaker 1: it's a numbers based business, right Is there a stat

190
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:43,599
Speaker 1: or one thing that you guys, you know, focusing on

191
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:46,880
Speaker 1: that that really means a lot too offensive tackle. I mean,

192
00:08:46,920 --> 00:08:48,680
Speaker 1: you're really not trying to give up any like sacks,

193
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,400
Speaker 1: pressures or QB hits. So I feel like that's probe

194
00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,199
Speaker 1: of the biggest thing that we're trying to focus on

195
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,200
Speaker 1: um and we have low amount of numbers on those

196
00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 1: you have a clean game, a little amount of numbers

197
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,719
Speaker 1: on the stat sheet, and also over one hundred and

198
00:09:00,720 --> 00:09:04,000
Speaker 1: fifty rushing. We want to run the rock. We talk

199
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:06,520
Speaker 1: about protection. That's you know, what you get paid to

200
00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 1: do at the end of the day is can you

201
00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 1: strap it down and protection? But we like around on

202
00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:12,240
Speaker 1: the rock and we want to keep doing it at

203
00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:15,080
Speaker 1: a high level. You're coming off your best rushing game

204
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:19,719
Speaker 1: as a team against Arizona on Sunday. What changed? I

205
00:09:19,800 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: know there was an emphasis over the by to establish

206
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 1: the run more, but what change that made more effective

207
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,880
Speaker 1: that week? Well, I think we executed better behind it,

208
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:30,920
Speaker 1: like I mean, that's fair. Our blocks were better, But

209
00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:33,719
Speaker 1: we had some open communication with our coaches about you know,

210
00:09:34,200 --> 00:09:36,040
Speaker 1: this is something we want to emphasize and these are

211
00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 1: the plays like these are certain things we've done and

212
00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:40,319
Speaker 1: we like to do. These are kind of our favorite

213
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:42,880
Speaker 1: runs that we've had so far. And they were receptive,

214
00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: and you know, it's a work in progress with both

215
00:09:45,000 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 1: us and them and them and us. So we'll continue,

216
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 1: you know, to communicate with them and they'll continue to

217
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:52,200
Speaker 1: communicate with us and keep it roll. You talked about

218
00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,520
Speaker 1: your favorite play. Let me ask both of you guys

219
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:57,400
Speaker 1: this question. If if we could score on one play

220
00:09:57,480 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 1: and Kevin O'scanno said, okay, this is the entire play. Look,

221
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:01,959
Speaker 1: you could pick one play that we could score a

222
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:05,520
Speaker 1: touchdown on every single time? What one play would it be?

223
00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:10,480
Speaker 1: And why? Probably? Qv sneak from the three yard line,

224
00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:13,199
Speaker 1: third and goal from the one, Bears lead, twenty two,

225
00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:16,640
Speaker 1: twenty one, two and a half minutes to go. Cousins sneak.

226
00:10:19,320 --> 00:10:25,839
Speaker 1: What are we doing? Yes, touchdown on the sneak for

227
00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown? Why is that? Because it's just us

228
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 1: against them, and it's just who can who wants it

229
00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 1: more for three yards? And I'd like, I'd like to

230
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,480
Speaker 1: think I'll take our group over anybody else's and that

231
00:10:37,800 --> 00:10:39,679
Speaker 1: CD you went with the run, So I'm gonna probably

232
00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,000
Speaker 1: go back with a job back play action pass. Okay,

233
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:45,400
Speaker 1: a deep stop to JJ play action Kirk back to pass.

234
00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:50,040
Speaker 1: He'll throw right. Look at that. Jefferston uncovered twenty fifteen times,

235
00:10:50,280 --> 00:10:54,240
Speaker 1: dances to the right to the five dollars for the touchdown.

236
00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:01,360
Speaker 1: JJ is killing them again. Any touchdowns that are long

237
00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 1: touchdowns are good. Oh yeah, so so a quick hitter

238
00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: Dona Field for sure. First couple of games we had

239
00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:11,199
Speaker 1: ten to twelve, thirteen, fourteen, fifteen play dribs. We're like,

240
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: we need one bomb quickly. Well, it's interesting you brought

241
00:11:17,040 --> 00:11:19,320
Speaker 1: up though, that you have these open lines of communication

242
00:11:19,440 --> 00:11:21,640
Speaker 1: with your coaches that you can talk about your favorite

243
00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:24,920
Speaker 1: plays or what you want to see. Has that always

244
00:11:24,960 --> 00:11:26,480
Speaker 1: been the case for you, guys, or what has changed

245
00:11:26,520 --> 00:11:29,360
Speaker 1: this year that's made that better for you. I think

246
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,000
Speaker 1: it's a different year to year coach to coach, system

247
00:11:32,040 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 1: the system, But you know, since they got here in

248
00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:36,640
Speaker 1: the spring, they've been receptive to our thoughts on things,

249
00:11:36,720 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 1: and we feel comfortable enough with them to tell them, Hey,

250
00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:41,360
Speaker 1: this is the stuff we like, this is the stuff

251
00:11:41,400 --> 00:11:43,319
Speaker 1: that you know we think we'll work. I love that

252
00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:45,760
Speaker 1: when we come back from the break. I want to

253
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:48,079
Speaker 1: dive a little bit deeper into that question because I

254
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:51,720
Speaker 1: asked Kevin O'Connell a specific question about Lyneman and how

255
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:53,679
Speaker 1: their jobs have changed, how you got some jobs have

256
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:55,880
Speaker 1: changed from last year that this year, and how that

257
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:58,120
Speaker 1: has affected the six and one team. So we get

258
00:11:58,160 --> 00:12:00,480
Speaker 1: back from the break, we'll be back right back more

259
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:03,800
Speaker 1: with Christian Darrisaw and Brian O'Neill. Stay tuned for more

00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,640
Speaker 1: This is the audible presented by three M. I'm Dave Henderson.

266
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,720
Speaker 1: That's Saytim Everett. Christian Derrisau is to her left, along

267
00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,439
Speaker 1: with Brian O'Neill and fellas. We were talking about just

268
00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:43,040
Speaker 1: some of the things that have changed in this new

269
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 1: offensive line, and I guess some of the schemes I'll

270
00:12:45,640 --> 00:12:47,960
Speaker 1: put it that way. We knew going into this season

271
00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: we're going to run a lot of eleven personnel, which

272
00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:52,800
Speaker 1: is you know, one tight end and one running back

273
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,800
Speaker 1: on the field. And I remember asking Kevin O'Connell earlier

274
00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:57,720
Speaker 1: this year. I was like, Hey, now that we're going

275
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 1: to get the ball out of our hands, the quarterbacks

276
00:12:59,480 --> 00:13:00,719
Speaker 1: going to get the all out of his hands a

277
00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,679
Speaker 1: little bit quicker, does that make the job easier for

278
00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 1: offensive lineman? Understanding that he doesn't have to, you know,

279
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,160
Speaker 1: pass protect a lot. This was a naive question, and

280
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,480
Speaker 1: he was like, no, Like our offense makes it actually

281
00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,640
Speaker 1: tougher on offensive lineman. Why do you guys think that

282
00:13:14,720 --> 00:13:17,160
Speaker 1: as the case. I think we're a lot less predictable,

283
00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:21,040
Speaker 1: and we were last year, you know, on offense felt

284
00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:23,839
Speaker 1: sometimes last year we were run run first a second down,

285
00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: pass on third down. It's not necessarily the case now.

286
00:13:27,000 --> 00:13:28,920
Speaker 1: So it might be more unpredictable for the defense, but

287
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,440
Speaker 1: we might be asked to pony up and pass protection

288
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,160
Speaker 1: a little bit more and we might throw the ball around.

289
00:13:33,280 --> 00:13:35,360
Speaker 1: But I think when we're gonna get into these high

290
00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:37,680
Speaker 1: school if we get into some high scoring games some shootouts,

291
00:13:37,960 --> 00:13:40,240
Speaker 1: will be better prepared to, you know, go have to

292
00:13:40,320 --> 00:13:42,040
Speaker 1: light up the scoreboard if we need to. And Coach

293
00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:44,839
Speaker 1: Cooper's talked a lot about creating this pro pocket. What

294
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:48,839
Speaker 1: all does that does that take? Really? Is this all

295
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 1: of us being on the same page. And it starts

296
00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:54,280
Speaker 1: with Garrett I, D and the fronts and identifying the

297
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,000
Speaker 1: mics that we're u that we're going to like he

298
00:13:57,080 --> 00:13:59,240
Speaker 1: wants us all at the set and team protect and

299
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 1: help each other in our pass ptection. So it starts

300
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,480
Speaker 1: with the tackles helping the guards and then the guards

301
00:14:04,520 --> 00:14:07,840
Speaker 1: helping us soon dominant. Yeah. I remember watching his interview

302
00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,520
Speaker 1: with Davantae Adams. He was basically saying when he comes

303
00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,520
Speaker 1: up to the line of scrimmage, he looks at a

304
00:14:12,559 --> 00:14:14,400
Speaker 1: cornerback and it's like, okay, if he does this, he

305
00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:15,920
Speaker 1: kind of puts it in the computer. It's like boom

306
00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:17,240
Speaker 1: boom boo, Like you know, I'm gonna do this. Do

307
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 1: that when you're lining up and the ball is snapped

308
00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:22,320
Speaker 1: and it's a pass player or a run play, Like,

309
00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: what's your mindset when you're you know, attacking your block?

310
00:14:26,440 --> 00:14:29,240
Speaker 1: Really a process? What type of player it is? I'm

311
00:14:29,240 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: on the man's side of the slight side. I'm on

312
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:33,400
Speaker 1: the man's side. I don't know, can't be too aggressive

313
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:36,040
Speaker 1: because I know I don't have any help inside. Really,

314
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:37,800
Speaker 1: if I'm processing it, I'm on the sl side. I

315
00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:39,520
Speaker 1: know I can be aggressive, go out there and jump them,

316
00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: and if I do miss or something like that, I

317
00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 1: got my help on the inside. But from the man's side,

318
00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:46,160
Speaker 1: you know, you gotta be patient with your hands and

319
00:14:46,240 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 1: your feet, get to your spot and then fight from

320
00:14:49,320 --> 00:14:52,640
Speaker 1: the Usually when i'm thinking less, I'm doing better. So

321
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,560
Speaker 1: if I'm not really thinking and just kind of flowing,

322
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:58,760
Speaker 1: usually you know, brings better results. If I start to

323
00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:03,600
Speaker 1: freak out, Yeah, process too much and sometimes you think

324
00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,280
Speaker 1: a little bit, and to Taptin's too quick to think.

325
00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:09,280
Speaker 1: What is something you do to make sure that it's

326
00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:11,840
Speaker 1: all in the field unless in the brain, I do

327
00:15:11,920 --> 00:15:13,400
Speaker 1: a lot. But I always try to tell the guys

328
00:15:13,400 --> 00:15:15,400
Speaker 1: on the sideline like we're gonna be right here, Like

329
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,040
Speaker 1: whether there's a good player or bad player, we're not

330
00:15:17,080 --> 00:15:18,960
Speaker 1: going to ride the wave up and down the emotions

331
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:20,960
Speaker 1: of the game. We're just gonna try to be steady

332
00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:22,800
Speaker 1: and do our job. And you know that's what I

333
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:24,360
Speaker 1: try to do when I'm out there. Yeah, it's tough

334
00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: to practice getting beat. So how what are a couple

335
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 1: of things maybe in practice you do to put yourself

336
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:35,600
Speaker 1: in those situations, try to block. To Darius Smith, I

337
00:15:35,640 --> 00:15:37,880
Speaker 1: think it's just never taking a playoff in practice and

338
00:15:37,960 --> 00:15:39,800
Speaker 1: being able to try to finish. You know, you're gonna

339
00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 1: get put in bad spots even in practice, and if

340
00:15:42,120 --> 00:15:44,760
Speaker 1: you can, you know, practice being in them in practice,

341
00:15:45,240 --> 00:15:46,920
Speaker 1: hopefully he'll translate to the game and you'll be able

342
00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:48,840
Speaker 1: to get out of something. This year, Kirk has really

343
00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:51,160
Speaker 1: settled down in too. You know who he is. People

344
00:15:51,200 --> 00:15:53,120
Speaker 1: are finally I mean CD we saw him which you're

345
00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,040
Speaker 1: chaining on. So there's a different Kirk. What have you

346
00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,400
Speaker 1: seen for him? From him? That's kind of helped him

347
00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:00,600
Speaker 1: relax a little bit more and beat himself. I really

348
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:03,000
Speaker 1: don't think he's changed that much. There might be more

349
00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 1: access to the public of you know, him wearing the

350
00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,000
Speaker 1: chains or you know, with the shirt tucked in with

351
00:16:09,040 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 1: the swept pants or whatever it is, but he's always

352
00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: been Kirk to us, and you know, maybe people are

353
00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:15,720
Speaker 1: starting to see a little bit more of his personality,

354
00:16:15,800 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 1: but I've been fortunate enough to see it for four

355
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:20,840
Speaker 1: and a half going on five years now, so to me,

356
00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,120
Speaker 1: it's he's just Kirk. So when I see him do

357
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:27,120
Speaker 1: some of these things, it's just it's Kirk likes. It's

358
00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:29,320
Speaker 1: just him. It doesn't feel any different to me. But

359
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,480
Speaker 1: I'm glad people are starting to see his personality, his

360
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,440
Speaker 1: true personality show a little bit. Yeah. I mean what

361
00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:36,240
Speaker 1: kind of an effect can that have in a locker

362
00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:41,640
Speaker 1: room seeing it always feels like people embracing him more. Yeah,

363
00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: for sure. I think you know, those things let guys,

364
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:46,480
Speaker 1: maybe defensive players or younger players who haven't been around

365
00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,840
Speaker 1: him as much, when he's able to have fun with

366
00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,040
Speaker 1: the guys and you know, take the guard down when

367
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,080
Speaker 1: we're not in the meetings. You know, it might let

368
00:16:53,160 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: people see him, you know, on a more personal level

369
00:16:55,400 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 1: where I've been around him long enough in offensive meetings

370
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:00,480
Speaker 1: and in the locker room to know that where everybody

371
00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:02,600
Speaker 1: else might get a chance to see him now, which

372
00:17:02,880 --> 00:17:04,800
Speaker 1: is good because it's great for the team. And it

373
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:08,479
Speaker 1: all started with the CD chain hud No, I'm hum

374
00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:10,720
Speaker 1: teasing and that wasn't that was really nice though, I

375
00:17:10,720 --> 00:17:13,360
Speaker 1: mean did you design that yourself? Yeah? So my jeweler, well,

376
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 1: I just wanted to like my logo on independent and

377
00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,800
Speaker 1: my jeweler you have dispiner to it, so you kind

378
00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 1: of it is I put it on after Kirk ten

379
00:17:25,359 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 1: minutes you didn't know viral though, what's up with that videos? Style?

380
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 1: It means a lot to you. I mean I see

381
00:17:32,720 --> 00:17:35,440
Speaker 1: you in a different swag every game. I mean I

382
00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,280
Speaker 1: feel like you don't see many offensive linemen dress up

383
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,920
Speaker 1: as much as Christian does. Like, what does that style

384
00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:43,399
Speaker 1: come from? Is that something that you've always been rooted in?

385
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:45,560
Speaker 1: How you how you play? It's how you how you

386
00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,000
Speaker 1: look as how you play. That's how I feel. How

387
00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,320
Speaker 1: you look look good, play good. Yeah, that might have

388
00:17:50,320 --> 00:17:55,480
Speaker 1: been a little flight up brilliant. See the Jason Kelsey quote, Like,

389
00:17:55,520 --> 00:17:58,480
Speaker 1: I don't play dressing, play football. I'm on the Jayson

390
00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:01,280
Speaker 1: Kelsey play football. As long as neither one of you

391
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,480
Speaker 1: guys are giving up sacks, that's that's all that matters.

392
00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,600
Speaker 1: And just just understanding that I've always wanted to ask

393
00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:08,800
Speaker 1: you guys this question. As you know, when it comes

394
00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,920
Speaker 1: to you know, run blocking and pass blocking, how much

395
00:18:12,000 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 1: of it is reactive versus proactive where you try to

396
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:18,960
Speaker 1: fit both of those into that mode. I sometimes feel

397
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 1: like pass walking you're going backwards and like they're running

398
00:18:22,160 --> 00:18:25,360
Speaker 1: towards you. It's kind of like harder. So I feel

399
00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,560
Speaker 1: like run blocking is way easier than pass walking. For so,

400
00:18:27,800 --> 00:18:29,800
Speaker 1: I rather run the ball than pass the ball anytime.

401
00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,520
Speaker 1: But when you pass the ball, I know we gotta

402
00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:33,879
Speaker 1: do and get a job done. Why is that because

403
00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 1: you're you're being more aggressive in the run game and

404
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,960
Speaker 1: there's like less limited amount for mistakes in the pass game.

405
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:43,000
Speaker 1: You make a mistake, end upen the sack, force farmb

406
00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,399
Speaker 1: or anything like that. With a record at what you

407
00:18:45,440 --> 00:18:48,040
Speaker 1: guys are, what do you hope to see in this

408
00:18:48,320 --> 00:18:50,959
Speaker 1: commander's game as you head into November? These teams, their

409
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:53,080
Speaker 1: records are a little bit better than what we've seen previously,

410
00:18:53,480 --> 00:18:55,160
Speaker 1: so it might get a little bit harder. Everyone's starting

411
00:18:55,160 --> 00:18:56,760
Speaker 1: to get banged up. What do you hope to see

412
00:18:57,160 --> 00:18:59,520
Speaker 1: in Washington as you guys take a step forward? I

413
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:01,960
Speaker 1: hope to see a wine. You know, we talked about it.

414
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,639
Speaker 1: I think our best games still out there as a

415
00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:06,480
Speaker 1: team in terms of all three phases playing at a

416
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:10,040
Speaker 1: really high level. Offense, defense, special teams. Seems like every

417
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: game we've had either one or two of the units

418
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,119
Speaker 1: playing at a really high level, and everybody's had their

419
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:16,440
Speaker 1: turn at kind of carrying us. And it'd be pretty

420
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:18,800
Speaker 1: cool to see if all three units can execute and

421
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:21,200
Speaker 1: play at a really high level, because I think will

422
00:19:21,200 --> 00:19:22,720
Speaker 1: be a really, really hard team to beat. If that's

423
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:25,280
Speaker 1: the case, is there a game or a quarter that

424
00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:27,840
Speaker 1: stands out that you can say, Okay, this is this

425
00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,440
Speaker 1: is who we can be That everything was is clicking

426
00:19:31,480 --> 00:19:34,639
Speaker 1: on all cylinders. I mean probably Week one was the

427
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:40,040
Speaker 1: best overall, just most dominating performance. Why is that just

428
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,680
Speaker 1: every unit played at a really high level to come

429
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:47,000
Speaker 1: out here and execute a game plan almost near I

430
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:49,760
Speaker 1: mean near flawless. I mean it was near flawless execution.

431
00:19:49,880 --> 00:19:51,920
Speaker 1: So I gotta give a hat tip to this entire

432
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:54,200
Speaker 1: organization for what a what an opening day at the

433
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:56,359
Speaker 1: audience at home may not know this about you guys,

434
00:19:56,480 --> 00:19:58,800
Speaker 1: but the offensive linemen are kind of the most festive

435
00:19:58,880 --> 00:20:02,560
Speaker 1: guys in the building. We just had Halloween, we now

436
00:20:02,680 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 1: have Thanksgiving. I saw Josh Socle in the hallway for

437
00:20:06,080 --> 00:20:10,960
Speaker 1: about eight hours yesterday. I might be underselling that, overselling

438
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,880
Speaker 1: that decorating What what how did this start? Brand? Because

439
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:17,680
Speaker 1: you've obviously been here longer. How did this all start? Um?

440
00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:21,000
Speaker 1: I don't know if I'm at liberty to say about

441
00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: the decorations, but it was a tradition that started by

442
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,960
Speaker 1: Tony Sprano, the Olne coach you know, sadly passed away

443
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:31,840
Speaker 1: right before training camp in twenty eighteen, and it was

444
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,600
Speaker 1: his favorite thing to decorate the room for Halloween, Thanksgiving

445
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:37,080
Speaker 1: and Christmas. Um so I did as a rookie and

446
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,600
Speaker 1: guys have been doing it as a rookie ever since. Yeah. Yeah,

447
00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,640
Speaker 1: they worked really hard. I think it was a really

448
00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:45,240
Speaker 1: interesting Halloween decoration. They took a more gory route, which

449
00:20:45,240 --> 00:20:48,359
Speaker 1: I thought was again interesting, And then you look at

450
00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:51,280
Speaker 1: Thanksgiving and it's like, oh wow, this is very I mean,

451
00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,600
Speaker 1: it's like the complete opposite. And Christia, you helped decorating

452
00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: it last year since you were a rookie. Right. They

453
00:20:56,520 --> 00:21:01,320
Speaker 1: blew us out to water though. I think the thing

454
00:21:01,359 --> 00:21:04,200
Speaker 1: that gets me is the cinnamon smell that the Thanksgiving

455
00:21:04,280 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 1: room now is like it now comes scented, which is incredible.

456
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: Who thinks of all this? You're trying to get Josh

457
00:21:10,359 --> 00:21:14,000
Speaker 1: to bring a live turkey in so then he has

458
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:16,280
Speaker 1: he has like a fake turkey, right, okay, and that

459
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:18,760
Speaker 1: thing is like three foot tall. He said, dude, if

460
00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:20,880
