Maybe some will 3 00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,919 Speaker 1: be more limited, but I'm encouraged where everybody's at. Do 4 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:20,720 Speaker 1: you change up, pat this is a little bit because 5 00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:24,079 Speaker 1: intenseit that's coming Sunday. As far as put it in 6 00:00:24,120 --> 00:00:27,760 Speaker 1: pans another day, well, anything like that. We just stick 7 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: to the same. No, I mean we've we monitor We've 8 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: probably monitored our practice schedule a few times here over 9 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: the course of the season. We'll stay with what we've 10 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 1: been doing here the last few weeks. We will be indorsed. 11 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 1: Does it feel like you said normal Wednesday? How much 12 00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: does it feel like a normal Wednesday? Do you? Um? 13 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,879 Speaker 1: Those those are a normal Wednesday. Yeah, you're ready to go, 14 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:57,400 Speaker 1: same practice, same meetings, Um, same schedule. Although there's a 15 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:59,040 Speaker 1: few more people here that I haven't seen in a while. 16 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,080 Speaker 1: How do you how do you do the opportunity coach 17 00:01:02,120 --> 00:01:06,640 Speaker 1: that's in front of you? Put everything we got into it. So, um, 18 00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 1: that's what we'll try to do with They have you 19 00:01:10,480 --> 00:01:13,160 Speaker 1: at all waited until this moment, like to make sure he's, 20 00:01:14,800 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: you know, as ready as he completely could be. Print's 21 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,000 Speaker 1: clary have played early, but I'd say with all our players, 22 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,679 Speaker 1: not just a dory. When when they're ready to play 23 00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 1: is when our medical staff you know, feels comfortable with 24 00:01:27,760 --> 00:01:29,960 Speaker 1: them playing. They have to feel comfortable, So we would 25 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 1: never put a player out there that's it doesn't feel 26 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 1: ready or isn't ready. So UM, I think he's made 27 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,480 Speaker 1: progress here the last couple of weeks in practice and 28 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,080 Speaker 1: hopefully he will continue to do that this week. But 29 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:43,720 Speaker 1: again with with all our guys, I'm encouraged with where 30 00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:47,360 Speaker 1: we're at. You've been pretty good at keeping the guys 31 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 1: grounded each week, such as yourself. But because this is 32 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,680 Speaker 1: a playoff game, do you have to be enforced to 33 00:01:53,760 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: them don't let the moment get too big? Yeah. I 34 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 1: think it goes back to consistency and how we operate. Um, 35 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 1: stay true to what we've been doing. Obviously, there's only 36 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:07,400 Speaker 1: six games this weekend, so we all understand that. But UM, 37 00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 1: it's a privileged to be in the playoffs, to have 38 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:13,400 Speaker 1: an opportunity to compete, and our consistency with what we 39 00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: do in our process and our preparation that's the most important, 40 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 1: as you know, not even the playoffs as far as 41 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: man you guys work with with with any game they 42 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 1: made in the regular season, if you do that more 43 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: in the playoffs, No, I say the same thing. Then, 44 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: like we we try to do what's best for all 45 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:32,680 Speaker 1: of our players. UM manage, not manage, um. Whatever we 46 00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: think is the best for our team and the best 47 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:37,720 Speaker 1: for them, that's what we'll do. I would imagine preparation 48 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: as you're leading up to this, when the coaching staff 49 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,919 Speaker 1: is putting me together, you're looking back a lot on 50 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 1: the last game you played with them. When the team 51 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 1: arrives this morning and you meet with them, is it 52 00:02:48,320 --> 00:02:50,880 Speaker 1: all forward to this game. Where do you look back 53 00:02:50,919 --> 00:02:53,120 Speaker 1: with them at the past game or is that in 54 00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: the past. No, I think Look, anytime you play a 55 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:59,600 Speaker 1: team for a second time, you know, Washington, Philadelphia, Dallas, 56 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:02,960 Speaker 1: you always watched the previous game. That's part of the 57 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:07,240 Speaker 1: preparation process. But we are excuse me, we are you know, 58 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 1: full steam ahead on you know, preparing watching the games 59 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,760 Speaker 1: that you know they have played after us. We've already 60 00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:16,560 Speaker 1: watched all the games before that. So it's really like 61 00:03:16,600 --> 00:03:19,799 Speaker 1: playing another division team that you just played, not a 62 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:22,560 Speaker 1: few you know, a few weeks ago, um, and doing 63 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: everything you can do prepare the right way did you 64 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:29,560 Speaker 1: learn from basing justin Jefferson in the last time? That 65 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: is really good, But we knew that going in so 66 00:03:32,600 --> 00:03:34,640 Speaker 1: again I said this before when we played him, there's 67 00:03:34,639 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: not there's not a lot of teams that, you know, 68 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,440 Speaker 1: we're a lot of players, a lot of teams that 69 00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:41,320 Speaker 1: can just stop him. He's you know, he's one of 70 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,160 Speaker 1: the best in the league. He's dynamic player, He's got 71 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 1: a lot of production. He's an exceptional route runner. He's 72 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: a very tough player to defend. Sometimes in the NBA, 73 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: when there's a player who's like outstanding, he always your 74 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,120 Speaker 1: coaches say, we're gonna let him get his points. We're 75 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:59,480 Speaker 1: gonna worry about the other guys with a kind of 76 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: like Jefferson. Do you focus on him in that regard 77 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: and how do you balance that aspect? Now? I think 78 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 1: we just try to put a plan together that we 79 00:04:08,120 --> 00:04:11,600 Speaker 1: think is best for you know, competing against their offense, 80 00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 1: they have a lot of good players on their offense. 81 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: With Hockinson killed us so Cousins is an excellent quarterback there. 82 00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:19,640 Speaker 1: Cook can take at the distance. They have a lot 83 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,800 Speaker 1: of talented, skilled players. A good quarterback. Um, we're gonna 84 00:04:22,839 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: have to play a really good sound defensive game. Sorry, 85 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:30,360 Speaker 1: what do you make of them having the hand a 86 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:34,760 Speaker 1: lot of su do you make head of that um 87 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: that they execute it? Well? Yeah, Do you just talk 88 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,239 Speaker 1: a little bit about the job that the front office 89 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: is done to get you guys to this point? And 90 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: we got a lot of a lot of injuries, a 91 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 1: lot of braster tone over bringing guys in off the 92 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,880 Speaker 1: streets and waive of planes and stuff like that. You know, 93 00:04:49,960 --> 00:04:51,880 Speaker 1: I think they do. You know, Joe and his staff, 94 00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: BB Hick, Tim all the rest of the guys, scouting assistance, 95 00:04:59,080 --> 00:05:01,800 Speaker 1: the pro scouts, I mean the college scouts. It's a 96 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,960 Speaker 1: team effort. I think they do a fantastic job. We 97 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 1: have guys in here, you know, every week usually you 98 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:10,600 Speaker 1: know a bunch of them, and I think they have 99 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:12,560 Speaker 1: a good beat on the league and they've done a 100 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,599 Speaker 1: great job. What's your role in that? I come out 101 00:05:15,600 --> 00:05:19,240 Speaker 1: here with them, I watch them. We discussed it after workouts. 102 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: We're talking mean not just myself, the rest of the coaches, 103 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,920 Speaker 1: a position coaches, the coordinators. It's it's all a group effort. 104 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,000 Speaker 1: Does your alignment between the coaching staff and the front 105 00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,640 Speaker 1: office help accelerate the curve for the guys who brought in. Really, 106 00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,280 Speaker 1: from the beginning of getting guys in seemed like guys 107 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:36,440 Speaker 1: were here to try out, and then within two weeks 108 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,280 Speaker 1: they're logging a lot of snaps on game day. Does 109 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,680 Speaker 1: that make that curve a little bit easier to overcome? 110 00:05:43,320 --> 00:05:45,040 Speaker 1: I just think it's a group effort or I think 111 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 1: that you know, the scouting staffs have done their research 112 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,200 Speaker 1: on players, not just a physical part of it, but 113 00:05:50,320 --> 00:05:53,280 Speaker 1: go back and you know, they have to have the 114 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:55,440 Speaker 1: qualities that we look for in terms of being intelligent 115 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 1: and being tough and being dependable. And then and once 116 00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: we see him work out, and now it's the coaches 117 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 1: out to get the players ready, whether that's you know, 118 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: in three days, whether that's in two weeks, whatever it 119 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,200 Speaker 1: may be. But it's just such a group effort. Everybody's 120 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: involved in it. Around a lot of playoff games, often 121 00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:16,000 Speaker 1: dealing with quarterbacks. Um, is there something about quarterbacks in 122 00:06:16,040 --> 00:06:19,360 Speaker 1: the playoffs that you've noticed that sometimes they try to 123 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: do too much? Sometimes they you know, they you know, 124 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 1: And is there anything that you're trying to impart to 125 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 1: Daniel with it? No, it just goes back to being 126 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 1: consistent and do the things we need to do to 127 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:32,080 Speaker 1: prepare for this game. That's really what it comes down to. 128 00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: How we play on Sunday and how we've prepared during 129 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 1: the week, those are the most important things. Is there 130 00:06:37,480 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: something about a quarterback playing in this first playoff game? Um, 131 00:06:42,760 --> 00:06:44,719 Speaker 1: I've I've coached a few of them. I think again, 132 00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:47,800 Speaker 1: it's the next game, you know, and we're again privilege 133 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: and honor to be part of it. But you know, 134 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: the things that got you to have an opportunity to 135 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,320 Speaker 1: be here, that's what you gotta lean on as much 136 00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 1: as you say it is the next game. Is there 137 00:06:58,040 --> 00:07:00,680 Speaker 1: something different about the playoffs that you can impart to 138 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: your players who might be experiencing it for the first time. Yeah, 139 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 1: when move on, lose go home? Not overly complicated. When 140 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:13,240 Speaker 1: we're playing. We're playing a game where again you've got 141 00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:14,960 Speaker 1: to earn it to get there, and now you gotta 142 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:16,680 Speaker 1: do the things you need to do to try to 143 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:21,920 Speaker 1: play your best and coach your best. Um, you have 144 00:07:22,040 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: just one player left from you know, the last time 145 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: the Giants went to the postseason. I mean, is there 146 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,640 Speaker 1: any theme at all about that? Like this was the 147 00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: team that got back there, embraced this opportunity kind of 148 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:36,160 Speaker 1: a theme or nope, nope, No, just can do what 149 00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: we need to do to try to play a good game. 150 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,320 Speaker 1: That's really the message. And you talked about preparation and 151 00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 1: consistency all year. Are there butterflies still going into a game? 152 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:50,560 Speaker 1: And that is that just natural? I don't know, It's 153 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: probably different for each person. Um. You know, I've coach 154 00:07:55,840 --> 00:08:00,400 Speaker 1: players that throw up before every game, whether the first 155 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 1: game of the season, a preseason game, a playoff game. Um, 156 00:08:04,320 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: you know, every player is different. I think every coach 157 00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 1: is different. The big thing is but yourself prepared to 158 00:08:08,840 --> 00:08:11,120 Speaker 1: play a good game, coach a good game, and do 159 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: everything you can do during the week to put yourself 160 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 1: in a good position. Are you excited for your f 161 00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 1: fan base and what have they meant to your team 162 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: this year? Yeah? They've been great. Um, you've had outstanding attendance. 163 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: Every home game has been, you know great. The away games, 164 00:08:27,920 --> 00:08:32,240 Speaker 1: you know, places like Jacksonville, Tennessee. I mean that's Washington 165 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: that night, it was you know there. You know, they're 166 00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:38,800 Speaker 1: part of our team too, so we appreciate them. Um, 167 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 1: you know, as many that could be there, it would 168 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:46,160 Speaker 1: be great. Ryan. You offensively against Minnesota. You looked a 169 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 1: lot different than you have against maybe any other game 170 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,920 Speaker 1: this year. Forty two pass attempts, dirty completions, and three 171 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,520 Speaker 1: guys with eight catches each. Do you feel like that 172 00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:57,000 Speaker 1: gives them something else to think about, like, are they 173 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 1: going to attack us the same way? Are they gonna 174 00:08:58,880 --> 00:09:00,960 Speaker 1: play like more similar or did they did the other 175 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:04,319 Speaker 1: thirteen fourteen fifteen games? Uh? I think that's probably a 176 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:07,439 Speaker 1: good question for them. Yeah, I don't know, whatever, I 177 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 1: don't know what they think it. What was it about 178 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:12,560 Speaker 1: that matchup that made you attack them so differently than 179 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 1: everybody else? Well? I think we do. I think CAFCO 180 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:17,120 Speaker 1: the offensive staff do a good job each week of 181 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,480 Speaker 1: trying to, you know, look at each game, is it 182 00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:21,960 Speaker 1: on its own season and figure out what we need 183 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: to try to do. Every week is a little bit different. 184 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,920 Speaker 1: You know, what we did against Washington wasn't the same 185 00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:28,839 Speaker 1: time first time, the same thing with Dallas. Each week 186 00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:34,400 Speaker 1: is a different week. Not through that process. How do 187 00:09:34,440 --> 00:09:37,439 Speaker 1: you handle that with your advice? Um? Yeah, I went, 188 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 1: I went through it the last three years. Um. First 189 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:42,720 Speaker 1: of all, I'd say it's you know, it's an honor, 190 00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,719 Speaker 1: you know, But the biggest thing is focusing on what 191 00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:49,760 Speaker 1: you have to focus on, which I know Mike will Um, 192 00:09:49,800 --> 00:09:51,640 Speaker 1: you know there'll be a time and place for you know, 193 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:54,840 Speaker 1: after the season talk about that. But um, you know 194 00:09:54,880 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: that's really a team. You know, you win. Usually when 195 00:09:57,320 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 1: you win, you know, people get credit, and you know, 196 00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: I'm happy for the guys that that would get that opportunity, 197 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:07,720 Speaker 1: But I know whether their focus is right now. Jefferson 198 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,120 Speaker 1: and Peterson they both made really important plays in that 199 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:14,640 Speaker 1: game down the stretch in particular, can your defense be 200 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:18,079 Speaker 1: better simply by having seen them so recently or is 201 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:22,320 Speaker 1: there another adjustment there? Um? No, I mean you gotta 202 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: play well and there he's a dynamic player and so 203 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 1: is Pps. You know, been a great player for a 204 00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 1: long time. So you got to do your job well. 205 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: And they're probably gonna still make some plays. I mean, 206 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,560 Speaker 1: they're really really good players do Um. So, I think 207 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:39,120 Speaker 1: our focus has to be on us and what we 208 00:10:39,160 --> 00:10:42,520 Speaker 1: need to try to do. Some reports that you guys 209 00:10:42,840 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 1: added James Washington. Is that like an insurance policy or 210 00:10:47,160 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 1: is there any concern about any receiver availability. No, it's 211 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:51,640 Speaker 1: just what we thought was best for the team, worked 212 00:10:51,679 --> 00:10:53,680 Speaker 1: them out and just like we've done throughout the season, 213 00:10:53,760 --> 00:10:56,160 Speaker 1: you know, add guys that we think could could help us. 214 00:10:56,360 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: Have you seen Savior come back? You missed a lot 215 00:10:59,480 --> 00:11:03,079 Speaker 1: of time, um, because he looked the same to you. Yeah, 216 00:11:03,240 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: you know, other than the little cast, the way his 217 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,920 Speaker 1: side the side is tackling everything. Yeah. Yeah, you know, 218 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,440 Speaker 1: he's done a good job of standard shape and um, 219 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:15,520 Speaker 1: glad he's back because he can play the first time. 220 00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,360 Speaker 1: So do you think he can be a you're obviously 221 00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:20,600 Speaker 1: welcoming back. Do you think he can be a difference 222 00:11:20,600 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: in the game like this? I think any player that 223 00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 1: you know it is a good player for you that 224 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 1: hasn't played and you get them back, you know, you 225 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:27,959 Speaker 1: hope that they can they can help you. Bryan, when 226 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,240 Speaker 1: you look back on the first game, what's the difference 227 00:11:30,280 --> 00:11:34,560 Speaker 1: besides the field goal? The end turnovers? Yeah, we had 228 00:11:34,559 --> 00:11:37,280 Speaker 1: two of them. Um, but like I said after the game, 229 00:11:37,280 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: they made more plays than we did. So you give 230 00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 1: them credit, you get their coaches credit. Um, you know 231 00:11:42,559 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 1: they made some more plays and critical times that we did. 232 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: To talk about Minnesota point differential, the fact that they're 233 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: winning so many one possession games. As a coach, when 234 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: you see that that a team is eleven and oh 235 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:58,559 Speaker 1: and one possession games. What does that tell you about them? 236 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 1: That they make plays when it matters the most, and 237 00:12:00,520 --> 00:12:02,360 Speaker 1: that the coaches do a good job of putting him 238 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:06,280 Speaker 1: in play, that they're consistent, that they played for sixty minutes. 239 00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:11,120 Speaker 1: We're tough out. How do you feel, Evan, you has 240 00:12:11,160 --> 00:12:13,640 Speaker 1: played the last month and just curious why you played 241 00:12:13,840 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 1: the other day that like a young player more snaps. Yeah, 242 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 1: you know we had you know, we had our planet. 243 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,840 Speaker 1: That would be good for him to get a good 244 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:21,839 Speaker 1: half of work in. I think he's improved since he's 245 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,760 Speaker 1: been here. I have a lot of confidence in Evan. Um, 246 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: you know, as I do with all the other guys 247 00:12:26,200 --> 00:12:33,600 Speaker 1: in the line. Take a couple more left. Um, Yeah, 248 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: we've talked about that and so we'll say we'll continue 249 00:12:36,720 --> 00:12:38,720 Speaker 1: to talk about that. But again, I have confidence in 250 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,240 Speaker 1: both those guys. There's probably a lot of people who 251 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:44,520 Speaker 1: think that you guys are playing with house money here 252 00:12:44,520 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 1: and he's already been a very successful season getting to 253 00:12:46,880 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 1: the playoffs. Steam. I'm guessing you don't share in that opinion. Yeah, 254 00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:54,439 Speaker 1: I'd say we're going out. It's a new season, so 255 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: we got to do a good job of preparing and 256 00:12:57,520 --> 00:12:59,800 Speaker 1: practicing the right way to play our best, not Sunday
