1 00:00:00,760 --> 00:00:02,640 Speaker 1: Obviously it's not the second you guys have won it, 2 00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:05,440 Speaker 1: But what gives you the confidence that you guys and 3 00:00:05,480 --> 00:00:06,720 Speaker 1: get the results that you want. 4 00:00:07,200 --> 00:00:09,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely just moving on to the next game, the 5 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:12,520 Speaker 2: most important game against a really good defense for us. 6 00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,079 Speaker 2: They have a lot of talented players who play a 7 00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:19,400 Speaker 2: lot of football in this league, and they present challenges physical, mental, 8 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:21,880 Speaker 2: all that stuff. So I really just focus on that 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 2: and and doing my job. 10 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:29,240 Speaker 1: It's hard to know how coomfortable this year last year, 11 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:31,800 Speaker 1: I guess can you stoop to that and even though 12 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:33,920 Speaker 1: there's been a lot of stuff happening around you, different 13 00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,120 Speaker 1: combinations pressures that you seem like you're in a really 14 00:00:39,560 --> 00:00:40,080 Speaker 1: good place. 15 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:42,519 Speaker 2: Yeah. I think every year is a new year, and 16 00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,800 Speaker 2: I'm definitely done talking about last year and just looking 17 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,880 Speaker 2: forward to trying to improve. Done with the first two weeks, 18 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 2: Just trying to focus on what I can do each play, 19 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 2: what's my job, who's the ball supposed to go to? 20 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 2: And focus on that. You mentioned the challenges the Jets. 21 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,400 Speaker 2: I think you still to kind of do what we 22 00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 2: do defense, So where are those challenges men? Yeah? They 23 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,600 Speaker 2: Obviously I've had a chance to play against this defense 24 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,039 Speaker 2: a lot, but They've done a great job. They affect 25 00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 2: the quarterback, they pushed the pocket, they relentless, they run 26 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 2: to the ball, they do everything right. So it's a 27 00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: big challenge for me. Like I said, I'm gonna focus 28 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 2: on each play regardless of the situation. I'm gonna go 29 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 2: out there and execute my job and hopefully bring everybody 30 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 2: with me good challenges play. Yeah, he's a great player. 31 00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 2: Obviously had a great rookie year. He's gonna make a 32 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 2: lot of progress. He looks great out there. Him and 33 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 2: DJ so tough, tough group to go against, But been 34 00:01:46,680 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 2: impressed with with what I've seen on film. Uh, definitely, long, 35 00:01:50,360 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 2: athletic guys, you know across the defense, so powerful up front, linebackers, 36 00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,880 Speaker 2: play with a lot of rangs. CJ is amazing. He's 37 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:00,280 Speaker 2: a great player, always has been in this league. So 38 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 2: definitely he's the bellcal But you can tell they all, 39 00:02:03,680 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 2: you know, have their own unique things that they can do. 40 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 2: So definitely one of the probably the most impressive team 41 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:10,600 Speaker 2: I've seen on kilde back. How close do you guys 42 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: think you are on offense in two games? Yeah, Like 43 00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,160 Speaker 2: I said, just trying to move forward, focus on what 44 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,840 Speaker 2: I can control and it's hard to do and sometimes 45 00:02:18,840 --> 00:02:21,799 Speaker 2: the results aren't there. But really, just focus on what's 46 00:02:21,840 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 2: the play, what's my job? How can I do it 47 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 2: really well? And how can I bring others with me? 48 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: Kind of against everybody mentality? 49 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 2: What do you guys think? Yeah, obviously there's a greater urgency, 50 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,760 Speaker 2: but that needs to happen every week, and that's the 51 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,640 Speaker 2: challenge is trying to do it every week. And like 52 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: I said, just play the play for what it is. 53 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: Do your job, line up assignment for me, what's my read? 54 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,480 Speaker 2: Who am I supposed to the ball to? And keep 55 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 2: it simple. 56 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,040 Speaker 1: Pretty get in the rent zone for you guys so 57 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,640 Speaker 1: far when you guys get down there, just what have 58 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,079 Speaker 1: you seen that has led. 59 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: To some success? Only? Just we got to do better, 60 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: really score more points just by doing that, trying not 61 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: to think about the result, focus on the play. How 62 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:10,280 Speaker 2: can I execute the play? Who can I get the 63 00:03:10,280 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 2: ball to? And let that take care of itself. We 64 00:03:13,480 --> 00:03:17,360 Speaker 2: have great playmakers, offensive lines coming together, So for me, 65 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 2: I just got to stay within the structure. Michael, you're 66 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:25,120 Speaker 2: having empty formations that maybe I like to dans. I 67 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 2: like I like empty. Why I think it's good. I 68 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 2: think it's it presents some challenges for the defense depending 69 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 2: on the week. So you know, sometimes we use it, 70 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 2: sometimes we don't. Is there anything to be just like 71 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:41,640 Speaker 2: to you that it fits your skill set? Well, you 72 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: know you talked earlier about you. One of the point hard. 73 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: And distribute is that the kind of approach that you 74 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:48,000 Speaker 1: take in that source situation. 75 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean empty is somewhat new to me. I 76 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 2: played in the wing tea in high school, so college 77 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: was the first time I got to go into empty. 78 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 2: So I like being in the gun a little bit. 79 00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 2: I like to spread it out, But it depends on 80 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: the week, right. We just do things based on what 81 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:05,560 Speaker 2: we see and how we can predict the game, and 82 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,000 Speaker 2: when the game comes, if it's not looking good and empty, 83 00:04:08,040 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 2: then we change. We got a few plays. 84 00:04:14,840 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 1: When watching film. 85 00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 2: What stands out to you about Quentin Williams for quite 86 00:04:19,839 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: some time. He's a great player in college obviously, and 87 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 2: that's translated really well to the NFL. He has a 88 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,799 Speaker 2: great motor, very strong, savvy. He uses his hands really well, 89 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 2: you know, wiping wiping blocks off or swim moves, and 90 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 2: then obviously his power is there as well, and they 91 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,479 Speaker 2: have other great guys around him. Too, So it's hard 92 00:04:40,520 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 2: when you have one good guy, but you really have 93 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:45,719 Speaker 2: four good guys. So that's the challenge you face the 94 00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: defense with a top tier corner like Sauce. How do 95 00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:49,800 Speaker 2: you balance the risk of throwing to a guy like 96 00:04:49,839 --> 00:04:52,680 Speaker 2: that while not making yourself predictable as in the passing game. Yeah, 97 00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:55,320 Speaker 2: I think it comes with just game plan and hey, 98 00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 2: obviously I got to know where a guy like that is. 99 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,320 Speaker 2: There's multiple people on their defense that are like that. 100 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 2: So for me just trying to execute the play, focus 101 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: on that during the week, and then when I get 102 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:07,720 Speaker 2: out there, just keep it simple and let it fly. 103 00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 2: No reactions. That play was when it happened, and maybe 104 00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: now having watched it, that was great. Really excited to 105 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,040 Speaker 2: see more of those plays. And they've done a great 106 00:05:23,080 --> 00:05:26,560 Speaker 2: job on special teams. The other one to kind of 107 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:30,880 Speaker 2: call for doing more to us since then, have you 108 00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:34,279 Speaker 2: seen more from your teammates. I think the biggest thing 109 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:37,560 Speaker 2: is is stick to your routine. Obviously we keep talking 110 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 2: about being close, and I think a lot of that 111 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:41,600 Speaker 2: just comes from a little bit of extra work. That's 112 00:05:41,640 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 2: what I've noticed with different people. And you know, I 113 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:46,560 Speaker 2: like to read and see other athletes what they do 114 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,560 Speaker 2: and that's just what a lot of good athletes do. 115 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:51,600 Speaker 2: So I'm trying to trying to do that, but you 116 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:54,680 Speaker 2: can't press. Got to let things come to you. For me, 117 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:57,039 Speaker 2: focus on the little things, Like I said, you know, 118 00:05:57,080 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: what's the play where is it supposed to go? Is 119 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,760 Speaker 2: it a runner? Ass r P O? And how do 120 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:03,160 Speaker 2: I get the ball to the playmakers? 121 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: And you guys have had to go off the tatle 122 00:06:05,320 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: how do you how do you feel that you guys 123 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: aren't organized before had of the situation? 124 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:15,160 Speaker 2: Yeah? Good, I like up timpo, Yeah, playing fast and 125 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 2: want of and help close the guys to Yeah, I 126 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 2: mean it's been skewed just because of some of the 127 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 2: starts and stuff. So for us really want to try 128 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:30,640 Speaker 2: to balance everything out and show our identity and it 129 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,479 Speaker 2: starts and we can use that if we need to, 130 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,160 Speaker 2: but it all starts with, you know, running the ball 131 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,880 Speaker 2: and doing things well there too. Mac, you have your 132 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: relationship with Zach Wilson, I mean obvious the same prapas Yeah, 133 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: I mean it was COVID so it's kind of hard. 134 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,440 Speaker 2: But he's a great player. I've done a lot of 135 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 2: things to improve and I always thought he threw the 136 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: ball very well. You know, watch him throw, whether it's 137 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 2: on tape or whatnot. He has great ability and he's 138 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,640 Speaker 2: he's obviously competitive, So looking forward to going against him again. 139 00:07:00,520 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: I think you guys need to do or change to 140 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:03,920 Speaker 1: have some more success on. 141 00:07:03,880 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 2: Some of these deep balls. Really, just like for me, 142 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 2: what's the drop, like, who's it designed to go to? 143 00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: Where am I looking in the timing of it? And 144 00:07:14,280 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 2: that just comes from practice from the practice squad before 145 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: the game the other day. What have you seen from 146 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 2: him a practice since I got here? Yeah, he looks good. 147 00:07:22,920 --> 00:07:27,080 Speaker 2: He's fast, obviously picking up the playbook pretty good. He 148 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:27,800 Speaker 2: looks pretty good. 149 00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 1: I've seen guys picking up Pop Doug list this week after. 150 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,280 Speaker 2: What he went to do on Sunday. Yeah, I think 151 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: for sure the older guys and including myself, just trying 152 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 2: to lift him up and let him know that he's 153 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 2: a great player and one play one week doesn't define anybody. 154 00:07:43,240 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 2: So he's gonna come out and keep swinging. He has 155 00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:50,760 Speaker 2: a lot of speed, smart kid, tough, dependable, all this stuff. 156 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:54,760 Speaker 2: So he's gonna bounce back, and so are we. Thanks you, Thanks,
