1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,040 Speaker 1: Hello Texans, and welcome to the Tamico Ryans program. Here 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:08,600 Speaker 1: we go after the Texans defeated Jacksonville thirty six to 3 00:00:08,640 --> 00:00:11,799 Speaker 1: twenty nine, and are looking forward to playing the Tennessee 4 00:00:11,800 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: Titans on Sunday at noon. The Titans, by the way, 5 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:17,320 Speaker 1: coming off a bye, so we'll let you know more 6 00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:21,599 Speaker 1: about them as we progress through the program. But yesterday 7 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: one of the greatest wins we'll ever see as far 8 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: as to come from behind variety, especially in the context 9 00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,520 Speaker 1: of a season in which so much has been challenging, 10 00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:32,760 Speaker 1: so much has not gone the way you wanted it to, 11 00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:36,880 Speaker 1: including the game yesterday up until about a minute thirty 12 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: left in the third quarter. That's when the Texans put 13 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 1: together their first of three final touchdown drives. They did 14 00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: score a TD in the first half, Davis Mills two 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:50,280 Speaker 1: touchdown passes, followed it up with the fourteen yard scramble 16 00:00:50,360 --> 00:00:52,760 Speaker 1: for a score to enable the Texans to get the lead, 17 00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:56,880 Speaker 1: and then the defense finished off Jacksonville for the victory. 18 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: It wasn't perfect, but it was exhilarating to see the 19 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 1: way the Texans battled and came out on top on 20 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: a day in which they had to have it look, 21 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 1: they had to have last week. 22 00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:08,080 Speaker 2: They didn't get it. They had to have this week. 23 00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,880 Speaker 1: Otherwise you really slide out at three and six and 24 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,280 Speaker 1: who knows where you're going from there. Now, with a 25 00:01:14,319 --> 00:01:17,240 Speaker 1: win on Sunday, you can get back to five hundred, 26 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: So we'll see how that goes Sunday at noon live 27 00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: right here, but also right here, let's check in with 28 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 1: the head coach in the Hunday Texans radio studio. And 29 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:28,600 Speaker 1: by the way, we are presented by AMIG Bank, the 30 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:32,200 Speaker 1: official business bank of the Houston Texans. Here's our conversation 31 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 1: with Demico Ryans coach. Congratulations, great to see. 32 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 3: Him, Great to see you guys. Thank you. 33 00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:41,000 Speaker 1: Big week with the Titans coming up. But let's review 34 00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: everything about the win over Jacksonville. Do you have two 35 00:01:43,200 --> 00:01:46,399 Speaker 1: or three hours? Maybe we don't have that long, but 36 00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 1: that was a sensational win. Can you just talk about 37 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:53,040 Speaker 1: the comeback trail a little bit. Everybody's spirits lifted with 38 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:54,440 Speaker 1: each play that went down. 39 00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, for sure, so many guys making some impact plays 40 00:01:58,720 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 4: in the game. 41 00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 3: And think the play really. 42 00:02:01,040 --> 00:02:03,440 Speaker 4: There in the fourth court that sparked it for us 43 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:06,880 Speaker 4: when Davids connected with Jaden Higgins in the end zone, 44 00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 4: like to see our guys get in the end zone again. 45 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 3: I think that just uplifted our. 46 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,640 Speaker 4: Entire team and that confidence there and knowing, okay, we 47 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 4: can go score and we can go score again, and 48 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,760 Speaker 4: we did it with confidence. 49 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 3: We were really driving. 50 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 4: The ball all day on their defense, so I felt 51 00:02:24,639 --> 00:02:25,960 Speaker 4: confident in what we were doing. 52 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: Thought Davids did a nice job. We ran the ball well, 53 00:02:28,840 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: but it. 54 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:32,480 Speaker 4: Was just that that little dark cloud hovered over us 55 00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 4: of are they going to score in the re zone right? 56 00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 4: And we were able to do that right, and not 57 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:39,760 Speaker 4: only do it one time, but to do it, you 58 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:44,320 Speaker 4: know four times there with not after the play the Higgins, 59 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,800 Speaker 4: but Dalton making a huge I mean with a catch 60 00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 4: and for him to be able to get his feet 61 00:02:49,520 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 4: in Nico on a two point convert. It was just 62 00:02:51,600 --> 00:02:55,040 Speaker 4: so many big plays happening there in the end zone 63 00:02:55,120 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 4: that were. 64 00:02:56,080 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: You know, that sparked our entire team to see that confidence. 65 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 4: I think then when the defense when they see the 66 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:06,320 Speaker 4: offense go score, and I was like, okay, we got 67 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: to just get it three and out or take the ball, 68 00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:10,959 Speaker 4: like just get it to them again, like they're rolling, 69 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,440 Speaker 4: they're hot, Like let's get the ball back to them, 70 00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:16,280 Speaker 4: and the defense went out and they made plays at 71 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:18,280 Speaker 4: the critical times that it needed to make plays. 72 00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:22,040 Speaker 5: Defense faced nine plays in the fourth quarter and a 73 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 5: Jaguars game that much one yard. 74 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:27,400 Speaker 6: I mean, it's pretty impressive. So along those lines, it 75 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,239 Speaker 6: was incredible. So after they do all of that, you 76 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 6: get the ball back at twenty nine to twenty four. 77 00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 6: You have that drive. 78 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:34,000 Speaker 5: I want to go to the end of the drive 79 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 5: and just ask you what you're feeling, what you're seeing. 80 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:41,880 Speaker 5: When Davis takes off in runs on third and goal 81 00:03:42,000 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 5: from the fourteen, you. 82 00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:44,280 Speaker 6: Still gotta time out. 83 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,720 Speaker 5: I remember as he took off, I'm like, okay, if 84 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,480 Speaker 5: he doesn't get in, like, oh, it's going through my head. 85 00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 6: You don't get in, okay, well get bank time out. 86 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:52,440 Speaker 5: We'll see where we are. But then he gets in. 87 00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,400 Speaker 5: What are you thinking when he takes off of that ball. 88 00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 4: I saw them drop in coverage, so it was like 89 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,040 Speaker 4: a max coverage they were. They were dropping off on 90 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 4: rushed four so and then they masked Woody as a 91 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 4: running back and so the backer ended up running with 92 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 4: him and he took. 93 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: Off and I was saying touchdown, okay. 94 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,160 Speaker 4: I was saying, he's gonna get in because when I 95 00:04:11,240 --> 00:04:13,680 Speaker 4: seen the back or match Wood is like, there's no 96 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:16,080 Speaker 4: one else got back to it left over there, and 97 00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 4: so I was just like, come on, please get And 98 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 4: you know, for Davis that that was such a great 99 00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 4: decision by Davis just to not try to force the 100 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,120 Speaker 4: ball anywhere in that moment, to make the best decision 101 00:04:29,160 --> 00:04:31,599 Speaker 4: and the best decision at that time. And it's always 102 00:04:31,680 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 4: good in the red zone and the quarterback can scramble. 103 00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:35,919 Speaker 4: There's not a great answer for that. 104 00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:39,080 Speaker 1: Defensively, Mills is faster than a lot of people think, 105 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:41,560 Speaker 1: right because as he starts to run, I'm thinking, is 106 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: he gonna make it? He's gonna make it. He dove 107 00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:45,520 Speaker 1: for it. So what about mills speed? What have you 108 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: seen there? 109 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,159 Speaker 6: Coach? 110 00:04:46,200 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, Davis is athletic. I mean, I feel like he 111 00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 4: moves very well for a quarterback. And he did a 112 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 4: great job of just on the keepers when we were 113 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 4: getting him on the edge and QB movement plays. He's 114 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:58,680 Speaker 4: always done a great job of that, you know, in 115 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 4: my mind, and you know, quarterbacks don't have to be 116 00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:03,679 Speaker 4: extremely fast, just have to be fast enough. 117 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 1: Right, it's backup quarterback kind of a weird job, and 118 00:05:06,880 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 1: that you have to prepare every week as if you're 119 00:05:09,560 --> 00:05:12,480 Speaker 1: playing and you might never see the field. In fact, 120 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: more often than not, you'll never see the field. So 121 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 1: what about that mentality coach that goes into it. 122 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:18,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, you, I mean backup quarterback. 123 00:05:18,800 --> 00:05:21,600 Speaker 4: You're a coach, Like, really, you are a coach that 124 00:05:22,160 --> 00:05:24,640 Speaker 4: can possibly get in we don't want to coach get 125 00:05:24,640 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 4: it in the backup quarterback. You talk about preparation like 126 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,680 Speaker 4: how much you have to be on it because you 127 00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,800 Speaker 4: know you're not getting those reps in practice. You want 128 00:05:35,839 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 4: the starting quarterback to get all the reps to make 129 00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 4: sure everything's in sync. And so you're over you're doing 130 00:05:41,920 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 4: scout team reps. You're trying to make those work, make 131 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,799 Speaker 4: them as realistic as possible, but to actually go through 132 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:51,719 Speaker 4: the huddle, calls, the cadence, commands, changing protections at the 133 00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 4: line of scrimmage. It's a lot as a backup quarterback, 134 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 4: you don't get the reps in the week, and then 135 00:05:57,160 --> 00:05:59,359 Speaker 4: you're thrust into a game and you're expected to go 136 00:05:59,400 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 4: do a great job. 137 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 7: Uh. 138 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 4: Well, I think that's where Dave is truly benefited from 139 00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 4: having the week of preparation. And that's what I kind 140 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 4: of talked about last week. Him having a full week 141 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 4: of preparation allowed him to be in a position right 142 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 4: to go and play a good game for us. 143 00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:14,640 Speaker 5: I know we've talked a lot about Davis coach, but 144 00:06:14,680 --> 00:06:16,679 Speaker 5: I said this to Mark today and get your thoughts 145 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,600 Speaker 5: on this. They punted us at twenty nine to twenty four. 146 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:21,919 Speaker 5: I think we have to ball out the seven. So 147 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:23,520 Speaker 5: we went ninety three yards. Yeah, so we're at ball 148 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 5: to seven and third down at ten, he's got to 149 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:28,960 Speaker 5: back up into the end zone and he's got a 150 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 5: couple of guys bearing down and he hits Dalton on that. 151 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 6: On that over route. 152 00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 5: I felt like when I told Mark, I said, I 153 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:37,800 Speaker 5: felt like at that point, like, Okay, something's in the 154 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 5: water today. Like that that play right there, getting us 155 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:44,000 Speaker 5: out of the shadow of our goalpost with time, I 156 00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 5: think we can do it right now. 157 00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:47,320 Speaker 6: That seemed to be a big play to big throw 158 00:06:47,360 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 6: on her thoughts. 159 00:06:47,880 --> 00:06:49,560 Speaker 4: About that third I was saying, I don't know if 160 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:51,240 Speaker 4: I said I think that's the play of the game. 161 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:55,400 Speaker 4: I mean, because we had two plays there that we 162 00:06:55,440 --> 00:06:59,119 Speaker 4: didn't get any any cars and for us, that third 163 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 4: down played a that was the play of the game 164 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:04,920 Speaker 4: to really get us going get the drive moving, and 165 00:07:05,279 --> 00:07:07,440 Speaker 4: I had to look back at it again this morning. 166 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 4: I was like, Okay, it was six minutes left on 167 00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:12,720 Speaker 4: the clock. I was, man, we chewed up a lot 168 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 4: of clock on that drive. Like that was an outstanding 169 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:19,240 Speaker 4: drive by our offense. And it all started right with 170 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 4: that third down play by Dalton. 171 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 3: Then we were able to get. 172 00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,400 Speaker 4: A couple of really good runs in from Woody from 173 00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:27,559 Speaker 4: Chubb and it was we were all off and moving. 174 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:30,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that really stuck with me, coach, the fact that 175 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: you were able to run the ball on that drive. 176 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: It wasn't a hurry up drive, but you knew you 177 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 1: were running out of time, but you wanted to take 178 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:38,480 Speaker 1: the time too, if you possibly could. 179 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: You knew it was win or lose on that drive. 180 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:40,600 Speaker 6: Probably. 181 00:07:40,680 --> 00:07:42,920 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's easy to kind of panic right when you're 182 00:07:42,960 --> 00:07:44,800 Speaker 4: in this It's like, oh, we gotta go score, we 183 00:07:44,840 --> 00:07:47,920 Speaker 4: gotta but you gotta remember and it just reminding guys, 184 00:07:47,960 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 4: let's just get back to. 185 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,800 Speaker 3: What's worked for us. Like we've had. We had a 186 00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: ton of positive plays. 187 00:07:53,200 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 4: Thought the O line blocked it well, our backs were 188 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 4: finishing forward a lot, they played physical and so the 189 00:07:59,520 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 4: run game was there and we utilized it. We utilized 190 00:08:03,520 --> 00:08:06,240 Speaker 4: it our advantage and in that moment when people are 191 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:09,480 Speaker 4: probably thinking more heavy pass as the defense and you 192 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:11,520 Speaker 4: pop a couple of runs in there, you're able to 193 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 4: get some big gains. 194 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:14,160 Speaker 6: Coach two point conversions. 195 00:08:14,160 --> 00:08:16,600 Speaker 5: I'm asking you from coaching standpoint and then from a 196 00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 5: defensive standpoint, because I feel like as a defender, if 197 00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:23,320 Speaker 5: you stop the two and going for two can happen 198 00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 5: a lot of different stops, but it always feels like 199 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 5: when you stop the two, it just takes a little 200 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 5: bit of that momentum way from what they just did 201 00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 5: scoring a touchdown. The flip side of that is when 202 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,120 Speaker 5: Nico catches that ball, it's an incredible catch, which you 203 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 5: talked about. Now you've got even more momentum offensively because 204 00:08:40,480 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 5: you've gotten the two, especially when you're trying to climb 205 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,000 Speaker 5: back into the ball game. How do you look at 206 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 5: both from a coaching standpoint of making the two and 207 00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,079 Speaker 5: as a defender of getting the stop like you did 208 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,040 Speaker 5: when it was twenty nine to ten. You got to 209 00:08:52,040 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 5: stop on the two. You didn't think that down to 210 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,960 Speaker 5: nineteen is it's going to matter. It ends up mattering 211 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:57,679 Speaker 5: because you stopped the two there. But how do you 212 00:08:57,679 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 5: look at it from both perspectives. 213 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 4: The two point conversion, there's a lot of mixed feelings 214 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,840 Speaker 4: on the two point Like if you're on the defensive side, 215 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:07,160 Speaker 4: it's like, man, we let him get in the end zone. 216 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 4: So it's that let down, and then the two point 217 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 4: conversion happens. Okay, we gotta stop. It's like, oh, okay, good, 218 00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:17,000 Speaker 4: good job, right, But the offensively, it's like, you scored 219 00:09:17,000 --> 00:09:20,440 Speaker 4: a touchdown, same thing like that Nico catches Dad. It's like, 220 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:24,720 Speaker 4: oh my god, like outstanding play. Try again, and you 221 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:27,120 Speaker 4: don't get like, that's okay, we just scored it though 222 00:09:27,120 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 4: we're good, Like. 223 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 3: It was still good. 224 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:32,240 Speaker 4: So you have those, you know, different feelings that happened 225 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,200 Speaker 4: on the two point plays. But offensively, knowing you just 226 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 4: got an end zone and got six, that's the most 227 00:09:37,840 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 4: important thing. 228 00:09:38,760 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: All right, maybe for both of you. What's the best 229 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 1: stingly pick you've ever seen? Because that has to be 230 00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:46,880 Speaker 1: right up there, never mind the context of the game, 231 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: because Miami last year, I mean that was at the 232 00:09:49,520 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: end of the game. 233 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 2: That was a tremendous interception. 234 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,520 Speaker 1: Two years ago, he had that one against Denver where 235 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:55,439 Speaker 1: he came from out of nowhere and reached across his 236 00:09:55,559 --> 00:09:59,480 Speaker 1: body or whatever. How how does that one yesterday stack 237 00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: up some of the others you've seen, Coach. 238 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:04,640 Speaker 3: Wow man I put that one. 239 00:10:04,679 --> 00:10:08,120 Speaker 4: I mean, that was probably the best Cats one hit 240 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 4: like that was probably the best Cats of the interception 241 00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 4: I've seen him that and the Denver one, like over 242 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: he always catches the ball like that Denver, So I 243 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:17,839 Speaker 4: think that was. 244 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 3: The best catch he had yesterday, the one handed. 245 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:22,559 Speaker 4: But to me, the one that I love the most 246 00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 4: is the Miami one because it's just to end the game, 247 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,520 Speaker 4: like they're trying to come back on our sidelines. Just 248 00:10:28,600 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 4: him going up making that play. I was just I 249 00:10:32,120 --> 00:10:34,000 Speaker 4: was losing my mind on that one. That was the 250 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:37,440 Speaker 4: insane play just when it happened, the critical moment in 251 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,040 Speaker 4: the game. 252 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,480 Speaker 5: Against Tyreek too. And this is and this is why 253 00:10:40,640 --> 00:10:43,600 Speaker 5: I love Staying. I said to him, I've said this, 254 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 5: said she's been here. I was like, he's got the 255 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:47,920 Speaker 5: best hands on the team. I've said he's got the 256 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:49,880 Speaker 5: best hands on the team. I can't tell you what 257 00:10:49,920 --> 00:10:52,839 Speaker 5: I said when he picked off that pass, because I'm 258 00:10:52,840 --> 00:10:53,720 Speaker 5: always at Mark Sire. 259 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:54,680 Speaker 6: I couldn't believe. 260 00:10:54,760 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 5: I was like, he just stuck his paw and it 261 00:10:56,920 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 5: just stuck in there that I think that's the best 262 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 5: like physical play that he's made. Like the other ones 263 00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 5: may have been maybe maybe a little bit more important, 264 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:06,559 Speaker 5: but it did save three points. 265 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:07,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, it was, it was. 266 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 6: It was pretty important. 267 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 7: Man. 268 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 4: We needed that at that moment, right knowing their field 269 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 4: goal kickers range, like we said, you get it at 270 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 4: the fifty yard line. 271 00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:17,960 Speaker 3: This guy is, he's live and he's ready to kick. 272 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,040 Speaker 4: So for us to get that pick in that moment 273 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:23,560 Speaker 4: to stop their momentum like that was a big play 274 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 4: in the game. 275 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,200 Speaker 5: What I love about Sting though, is I went up 276 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 5: to him after the game. I said, man, that's the 277 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 5: best interception I think you made, and he immediately said, yeah, 278 00:11:31,840 --> 00:11:34,120 Speaker 5: I gotta quit dropping the other one, like that's the 279 00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:36,000 Speaker 5: Immediately what he thought about was the one in the 280 00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:38,760 Speaker 5: forehands on the far side that he had that went 281 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:40,360 Speaker 5: through his hands that could have stopped the scoring. 282 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:41,160 Speaker 6: Driving at that point. 283 00:11:41,320 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 1: Coach, we often talk about with the running game, stick 284 00:11:43,800 --> 00:11:46,400 Speaker 1: with it. Eventually, it'll work. You gotta be patient. But 285 00:11:46,559 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: defensively early on they had some runs, but you're stuck 286 00:11:49,760 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 1: with your defense and you started to slow them down 287 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,960 Speaker 1: at the end ETN three and a half per carry. 288 00:11:55,000 --> 00:11:55,320 Speaker 2: Whatever. 289 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:57,560 Speaker 1: You really put the brakes on the Jags as the 290 00:11:57,600 --> 00:11:59,920 Speaker 1: game war on. What about that side of things? 291 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was huge. 292 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,679 Speaker 4: That was the main key for us defensively, like building 293 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 4: that wall up front, stopping the run. 294 00:12:05,760 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 3: We knew that was going to be the key. 295 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,560 Speaker 4: We knew they were going to try to stay after 296 00:12:08,640 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 4: but if we stopped them, like we wanted to put 297 00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,200 Speaker 4: the ball in the quarterback's hand and make him beat us, 298 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:16,520 Speaker 4: make him drop back and have to beat us. And 299 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:21,079 Speaker 4: so it took man Tommy again. Tommy told yat inside 300 00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 4: so many plays that he made in the run game, 301 00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:27,719 Speaker 4: our edges. Daniel did a great job playing in the 302 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 4: Run Game. One of his better games was setting the 303 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 4: edge coming off making plays that was it was really 304 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 4: a collective effort from stopping the run. The guys did 305 00:12:36,360 --> 00:12:39,599 Speaker 4: a really good job of staying with it right and 306 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,480 Speaker 4: not not letting not letting down at all. Like we 307 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:44,280 Speaker 4: knew we had to stay with it. They did that, 308 00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,959 Speaker 4: They tackled well, and that was the key to us. 309 00:12:47,600 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 5: You mentioned Hunter, That's exactly where I wanted to go. 310 00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 5: I'm basically just gonna. 311 00:12:52,200 --> 00:12:57,599 Speaker 6: Ask Daniel Hunter. I mean, how could Dan Hunter. 312 00:12:57,440 --> 00:13:00,600 Speaker 4: Go yeah, it's I mean one of the games I've 313 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 4: seen him play since he's been a text and it's 314 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:05,800 Speaker 4: you know, and started for me in the run game 315 00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:07,640 Speaker 4: when I saw the way he was setting the EDGs 316 00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,200 Speaker 4: in a run game like that's what sparked it for me. 317 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 4: And then when he was rushing like he was, he 318 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:16,720 Speaker 4: was getting off the ball, he was playing explosive, violent 319 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 4: and the tackle had no chance and so you know, 320 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 4: for him to get the plays he made, I mean 321 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,840 Speaker 4: also he had one, he had a two play sequence 322 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:27,240 Speaker 4: late in the game where he goes underneath the tackle, 323 00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:29,480 Speaker 4: gets a tackle for loss and then he gets a 324 00:13:29,559 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 4: huge sat mar and saw that was such a huge 325 00:13:33,440 --> 00:13:35,920 Speaker 4: two play sequence in the game to knock them back. 326 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:38,679 Speaker 3: Man, it was.

Coach, You've done everything twice, now, 337 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,480 Speaker 1: what is that like for you, former teammate of yours 338 00:14:08,480 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: on national television. 339 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:10,720 Speaker 3: It's always fun. 340 00:14:10,760 --> 00:14:14,120 Speaker 4: It's easy when I'm in there with JJ and his crew, 341 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:15,680 Speaker 4: they do it. I feel like they do a really 342 00:14:15,720 --> 00:14:18,200 Speaker 4: great job. It's just again, I'm talking to one of 343 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,040 Speaker 4: my teammates. I can I probably share a little bit 344 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:23,600 Speaker 4: more than I need to with him, but I can 345 00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:27,480 Speaker 4: just be open, honest, just talk to him. 346 00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 3: That's my that's my old neighbor, my teammate, Like, that's 347 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 3: my guy. JJ is my guy. So he's done a 348 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:33,400 Speaker 3: great job. 349 00:14:33,440 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 4: We keep it professional, but they just want to know, like, 350 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:39,280 Speaker 4: you know, the kind of the pulse of the team 351 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 4: and where we are, like what's been the messaging all 352 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 4: week with the guys. And I feel like when I 353 00:14:44,720 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 4: started talking the message to him, I feel like I'm 354 00:14:46,720 --> 00:14:49,120 Speaker 4: talking to, you know, my teammates. So it's kind of 355 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,280 Speaker 4: like I'm delivering my message and I'm pumping him up, 356 00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 4: pumping the team up. So he gives me a little 357 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,239 Speaker 4: a little practice from my Saturday nights beach. 358 00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,840 Speaker 6: So coach, we went it to your Sunday. 359 00:15:00,360 --> 00:15:03,520 Speaker 5: I'm sure you know offensive line a little different, mental 360 00:15:03,640 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 5: changes during the game, but then you look up give 361 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:07,720 Speaker 5: up two sacks. One of them I think was when 362 00:15:07,800 --> 00:15:10,520 Speaker 5: Davis ran out of bounds. So there's really only one 363 00:15:10,640 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 5: sack that Eric Armstead got. Other than that a couple 364 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:17,760 Speaker 5: quarterback hits. They've said to move a little bit of 365 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 5: a time. But how'd you feel like the offensive line 366 00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 5: held up, especially in protection? 367 00:15:21,440 --> 00:15:23,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, overall and protection, I thought they did a really 368 00:15:23,680 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 4: nice job. David's had time all day, you know. Starting off, 369 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,360 Speaker 4: we had to get some things corrected. It wasn't up 370 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,840 Speaker 4: to our standards, so we had to make changes get 371 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 4: it fixed. And once we got those fixed, I feel 372 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 4: like the guys did a really good job of battling. 373 00:15:40,480 --> 00:15:42,960 Speaker 4: Still things to clean up, but for overall, man, I 374 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 4: thought Tay Trent did a really nice job on the 375 00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:47,640 Speaker 4: edges protecting it well. 376 00:15:48,480 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 3: We had a couple of zero pressures that kind of 377 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 3: got us. 378 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 4: We got to communicate better on our mic points in 379 00:15:54,160 --> 00:15:57,400 Speaker 4: those things, make sure everybody's on the same page. But overall, 380 00:15:57,480 --> 00:16:01,000 Speaker 4: you talk about a game protection wise versus a really 381 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,480 Speaker 4: good front, our guys did a great job, all. 382 00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:05,920 Speaker 2: Right, So you played nine games. 383 00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: We're over the halfway point of the season, which was 384 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 1: I guess halftime in this past game. But the rookies, coach, 385 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: are they no longer rookies? When you talked about ursery 386 00:16:14,440 --> 00:16:17,040 Speaker 1: and then you talk about your past catchers and Woody Marks, 387 00:16:17,200 --> 00:16:18,200 Speaker 1: what about the rookies? 388 00:16:18,920 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 4: No more rookies like wood Like, let's go. Like Woodie's 389 00:16:22,320 --> 00:16:24,280 Speaker 4: doing a great job. We got to continue to feed 390 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,880 Speaker 4: him more. Higgins on the outside, we got everybody sees 391 00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:31,200 Speaker 4: like this guy's catch radius is insane, Like put the 392 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 4: ball in his vicinity, He's gonna go and get it. 393 00:16:33,920 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 4: You need a big play. Who shows up on fourth now? 394 00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:40,240 Speaker 4: Is Jalen Knowle showing up? And we needed it most 395 00:16:40,960 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 4: to make that play. So these guys are are not rookies. 396 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 4: They're making plays in the critical times of the game, 397 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,720 Speaker 4: crunch time we needed most. We're counting on the rookies. 398 00:16:50,840 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 4: Tay It's doing a great job there left tackle, like 399 00:16:53,800 --> 00:16:57,080 Speaker 4: continuing the battle down and down out. He's getting better 400 00:16:57,360 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 4: as the season is going on. So yeah, the rookie, 401 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 4: the rookie name plate is off. This is like, let's 402 00:17:03,480 --> 00:17:06,240 Speaker 4: go and how can we finish this season the right way. 403 00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,879 Speaker 5: Coach, you mentioned the pulse of the team, and it 404 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:10,160 Speaker 5: made me think about it because when it was seventeen 405 00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:13,880 Speaker 5: to nothing, I was kind of looking for, especially offensively, 406 00:17:14,440 --> 00:17:17,800 Speaker 5: is there somebody that's gonna in honestly rally the troops 407 00:17:17,800 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 5: that doesn't maybe the right word, but just kind of 408 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 5: be a be a voice of hey, follow me, let's go. 409 00:17:23,440 --> 00:17:25,480 Speaker 6: And I looked out and I saw Nico.
